House Bill No. 2793 appropriates $8 million from the Progressing Rural Economic Prosperity Fund to the Emergency Medicine Revolving Fund. This new section of law will not be codified in the Oklahoma Statutes, indicating that it is a temporary measure aimed at addressing immediate funding needs for emergency medicine services in the state.
The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and includes a declaration of emergency, allowing it to be enacted immediately upon passage and approval. This urgency underscores the importance of ensuring adequate funding for emergency medical services to protect public health and safety.
