What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows a rural ambulance service provider to upgrade its service level

to the highest level of license of any emergency medical technician staffing that

ambulance if the medical director approves a proposal submitted to him or her by the

rural ambulance service provider. The bill allows a rural ambulance service provider

that upgrades its service to advertise only for the level of service the provider is able

to provide 24 hours per day.
