Rural EMS and cost responsibilities

In an upcoming webinar, Fitch & Associates will explore the significant shift in cost responsibilities from the federal government to state and local authorities, outlining the various challenges and common themes that emerge from this transition.

Register to attend the event on Tuesday, October 15 at 1 p.m. CT.

We will delve into the issues these changes create for rural communities, examining their impact on current practices and policies.

Additionally, the discussion will include a review of different rural EMS models, ranging from older frameworks to newer approaches, to understand how rural communities are adapting to or being reshaped by these shifts.
