Bill > SB0747

This bill makes several amendments to Tennessee's Ground Ambulance Service Provider Assessment Act by first extending the annual ground ambulance service assessment deadline from June 30, 2025, to June 30, 2026, which effectively continues the current assessment program for another year. The bill also modifies the timeline for certain administrative procedures, changing the deadline for a specific process from 30 business days to 45 calendar days. Additionally, the bill introduces a new provision that allows the commissioner of health to access ambulance run reports from the office of emergency services, including reports with protected health information, to ensure the assessment program remains compliant with state and federal laws. These changes appear aimed at providing more flexibility in data sharing and extending the current ambulance service assessment framework, with the bill taking effect immediately upon becoming law.
