Safety - As introduced, requires an air medical communication specialist to be certified within six months of employment by certain listed certified flight programs. - Amends TCA Title 68, Chapter 140.
HB 2195 requires air medical communication specialists working for certain accredited flight programs in Tennessee to obtain certification within six months of starting their job. It directly affects specialists employed by flight programs accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Medical Transport Systems (CAMTS) or affiliated with the International Association of Medical Transport Communication Specialists (IAMTCS). The bill specifies two acceptable certification pathways: CAMTS accreditation or IAMTCS membership. This policy change establishes a clear timeline for professional certification to ensure specialists meet standardized training requirements.
