Counties and municipalities must now provide emergency medical services within their jurisdictions. The bill increases court-ordered liquidated costs from $50 to $55 per criminal conviction, with the additional $5 going toward a new emergency medical services fund instead of law enforcement training. These changes ensure more consistent EMS coverage across the state while shifting some criminal justice funding to support emergency medical response.
