What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows the Department of Health Services to pay for aid for first

responder training and examinations. Currently, and under the bill, DHS may pay

aid for emergency medical technician — basic training and examinations. The bill

also allows ambulance service providers that receive aids from DHS to escrow

unused moneys and use those moneys in a subsequent year for first responder

training and examinations or emergency medical technician training and

examinations at any level.
