Relating to reporting duties of county commission regarding ambulance services

SB 630 requires West Virginia county commissions to provide emergency ambulance service to all residents within their counties, but only if they have budgeted funds for it in their annual levy. It also mandates that county commissions submit an annual report by September 1st to the Office of Emergency Medical Services, detailing how ambulance services are provided and the exact amount of county funds spent on them the previous year. This bill directly affects county commissions (as the entities responsible for funding and service delivery), residents (who receive the service if funds are allocated), and the Office of Emergency Medical Services (which receives the reports for oversight). The changes amend Section 7-15-4 of West Virginia’s Code, making the reporting requirement explicit and annual.
