ADHS has filed a Notice of Exempt Rulemaking to amend R9-25-503 Table 1 and R9-25-512, effective October 15, 2010. The purpose of this rulemaking is to amend Table 1 to remove the EMT categories of EMT-I(99) Certified Before 1/6/07 and EMT-I(85) from the table and to amend the EMT-I(99) Certified On or After 1/6/07 category to EMT-I(99). These amendments are due to the expiration on January 6, 2009 of the grace period found in R9-25-512, which gave EMT-I(99)s Certified Before 1/6/07 different authorization to administer agents, monitor the use of agents, assist in patient self-administration of agents, and use transport agents from the authorization given to EMT-I(99)s Certified On or After 1/6/07. These amendments are also due to the requirement in R9-25-412 that EMT(85)s either apply for recertification as EMT-I(99)s or downgrade to EMT-Bs before December 31, 2007. All EMT-I(85) certifications in Arizona expired prior to or on December 31, 2007. This rulemaking also repeals R9-25-512, as explained above. The statute authorizing the exemption from the regular rulemaking process is A.R.S. § 36-2205(C).
The Notice of Exempt Rulemaking was effective on October 15, 2010. The official version of the Notice of Exempt Rulemaking can be found here. |
