Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Systems Act. Provides that any Emergency Medical Technician whose license expired September 30, 2009, and who reapplies for licensure by January 1, 2011 shall have the license renewed once the individual completes the continuing education requirement and pays the licensure fee. Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts provisions of the introduced bill, but with the following changes: Provides that an Illinois licensed Emergency Medical Technician whose license has been expired for less than 96 months may apply for reinstatement by the Department of Public Health (rather than, any Emergency Medical Technician whose license expired September 30, 2009, and who reapplies for licensure by January 1, 2011 shall have the license renewed once the individual completes the continuing education requirement and pays the licensure fee). Further provides that reinstatement shall require that the applicant (i) submit satisfactory proof of completion of continuing medical education and clinical requirements to be prescribed by the Department in an administrative rule; (ii) submit a positive recommendation from an Illinois EMS Medical Director attesting to the applicant's qualifications for retesting; and (iii) pass a Department approved test for the level of EMT license sought to be reinstated. Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Provides that an Illinois licensed Emergency Medical Technician whose license has been expired for less than 36 months (rather than 96 months) may apply for reinstatement by the Department of Public Health.
