Ambulance attendant education costs reimbursement requirements modification and appropriation

This bill modifies Minnesota's reimbursement program for volunteer ambulance attendants' education costs. It sets specific payment amounts ($1,200 for initial EMT training, $375 for continuing EMT, $600 for initial EMR, $200 for continuing EMR) and requires ambulance services to have handled 5,000 or fewer calls in the prior year to qualify. Attendants must also serve one year as active members after certification to qualify for reimbursement. The bill appropriates $100,000 for fiscal year 2026 and $100,000 for fiscal year 2027 to fund these reimbursements. It directly affects volunteer ambulance services and their attendants in Minnesota.
