The Division of EMS and the Medical Transportation Committee are tasked every five years with review and if needed amending the ambulance rules, Ohio Administrative Code (OAC), Section 4766-2. The State Board of Emergency Medical, Fire and Transportation Services reviewed and passed the rule revisions at their October 20, 2021, meeting. The effective date has not been determined at this time.
The biggest update is the creation of the BLS non-emergency only (BLS-NEO) level of service. Private EMS agencies can be licensed at this level and licensed ambulance and MoICU providers can operate ambulances at this level. The requirements for operating an ambulance at the BLS non-emergency only level are located in the following rules: OAC 4766-2-2, 4766-2-08, 4766-2-11 and 4766-2-13.
