3an exemption from licensing requirements for certain out-of-state ambulance
4service providers.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill creates a limited exemption from licensing requirements for certain
out-of-state ambulance service providers. Under current law, a person may not act
as or advertise for the provision of services as an ambulance service provider unless
that person holds the required Wisconsin license. This bill creates a limited
exemption from that requirement for ambulance service providers licensed in
another state that make ten or fewer patient transports per year that originate and
terminate in Wisconsin.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
