Office of Emergency Medical Services replacement of the Emergency Medical Services Regulatory Board establishment
Maddy summaryThis bill replaces the existing Emergency Medical Services Regulatory Board with a new Office of Emergency Medical Services to oversee the state's EMS system. The new office will be led by a director appointed by the governor and will have the authority to license ambulance services, register medical response units, and certify emergency medical personnel. It also establishes advisory councils to provide guidance and creates a pilot program for alternative emergency medical responses. The legislation requires the director to submit annual reports to the legislature and includes provisions for funding and rulemaking.
