Bill Summary

To require the Commissioner of Public Health to establish an emergency medical services response time dashboard to collect and display emergency medical services response time data.

AI Summary

This bill requires the Commissioner of Public Health to create and manage a public online dashboard that will collect and show data on how long it takes for emergency medical services (EMS) to respond to calls. This data will be broken down by location, the type of emergency, and the time of day, but will not include any personal information about patients. The Commissioners of Public Health, Social Services, and Emergency Services and Public Protection will use this information to help apply for federal grants for EMS and to direct those funds to communities that most need better response times. This new requirement will go into effect on October 1, 2026.
