This bill establishes a new commission to study delivery models for emergency medical services (EMS) in New Hampshire, amending RSA 153-A by inserting a new subdivision titled "Commission to Study Delivery Models for Emergency Medical Services." The commission will consist of various members, including three representatives from the House of Representatives, one from the Senate, and representatives from several associations related to fire, ambulance, hospitals, municipalities, and counties. The commission is tasked with reviewing the history and operation of EMS delivery in the state, identifying barriers to service, and making recommendations for sustainable EMS systems. Legislative members will receive mileage reimbursement for their duties, and the commission is required to report its findings by November 1, 2025.

Additionally, the bill includes a repeal clause that will remove RSA 153-A:38 and its subdivision heading, which pertains to the commission studying EMS delivery models, effective November 1, 2025. The bill is designed to have no fiscal impact on state, county, or local expenditures or revenue. The remainder of the act will take effect upon its passage, while the specific repeal will take effect at the designated future date.
