HB 1145 Emergency medical services agencies; surface transportation and removal surfaces exemption.
Introduced by: Robert D. Orrock, Sr. | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Exemptions from surface transportation and removal services. Exempts emergency medical services agencies holding a permit issued by the Commissioner of Health from registration as surface transportation and removal services to remove and transport dead human bodies. The requirement that a licensed funeral service establishment receive the registration as a part of its license has been removed. The bill provides that no funeral services establishment will be required to receive such registration "in addition" to its funeral service establishment license. However, funeral service establishments must continue to comply with Board regulations governing transportation and removal services.
Currently, emergency medical services agencies must apply for and receive a registration from the Board of Funeral Directors and Embalmers to remove and transport dead human bodies. Emergency medical services agencies are assessed a fee for this registration. Licensed funeral service establishments receive this registration as a part of their funeral service establishment license, without an additional charge for the registration.
