Relative to emergency medical technician certification of veterans and military medics. Veterans and Federal Affairs.

AI Summary

This bill aims to streamline the process for veterans and military medics to obtain emergency medical technician (EMT) certification in Massachusetts. It requires the Department of Public Health to establish standards and regulations to determine if the education and training requirements for veterans and military medics are substantially equivalent to the state's EMT training requirements. If the department finds the training to be substantially equivalent, it must waive any course or training requirements for certification in the state, and issue a verification of EMT training equivalency to the applicant.
