Bill Summary

Streamlines emergency medical technician certification process for certain veterans.

AI Summary

This bill streamlines the emergency medical technician (EMT) certification process for certain veterans, known as "servicemembers." Specifically, it allows servicemembers who have equivalent military training or experience, such as serving as a Combat Army Medic or Navy Hospital Corpsman, to be certified as an EMT-Basic if they possess a current EMT certification from the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians and pass a criminal history record background check. The bill also requires the Commissioner of Health to publish a clear and comprehensive explanation of the EMT-Basic certification requirements for eligible servicemembers on the Department of Health's website.
