Promoting Innovation in Emergency Medical Services
NHTSA invites applications for award of a new cooperative agreement to support the promotion of innovative EMS practices in states and local systems.
This project will assist state and local EMS systems to innovate by developing model legal, regulatory, and financial frameworks that they may subsequently implement to encourage pilot programs that will test new delivery models.
State oversight of innovative demonstration programs will help ensure consistent quality and safety controls, medical direction, data collection, and eventually financing, among other system components.
The Federal government will not fund individual pilots or demonstrations as part of this project.
