Amends, repeals, and adds to existing law to transfer emergency medical services responsibilites to the Idaho Military Division.

This bill moves the Emergency Medical Services Bureau (EMS) from the Department of Health and Welfare (DHW) and relocates it into the Idaho Military Division (IMD), which already coordinates emergency management with state and local government through the Office of Emergency Management. All existing EMS programs at DHW (except the Public Health Preparedness and Response Program) will be moved effective July 1, 2025. The DHW Director and the Adjutant General at the Military Division will work together to coordinate the transfer of EMS services. The law sunsets the EMS program’s rulemaking authority on and after July 1, 2027, and expresses the intent of the legislature that the EMS program propose the codification of any necessary EMS rules in the chapter created in this bill before the adjournment sine die of the first regular session of the 69th Idaho Legislature.
