S 2668 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Enters New Jersey into Emergency Medical Services Personnel Licensure Interstate Compact.

New Jersey's S 2668 enters the state into the Emergency Medical Services Personnel Licensure Interstate Compact (REPLICA), enabling EMTs, paramedics, and other licensed EMS personnel to practice across state lines more easily. The compact requires participating states to mutually recognize licenses, provided the home state uses the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) exam for initial licensing and shares adverse action or safety-related information. This directly affects EMS professionals who work in multiple states, streamlining their ability to provide care while maintaining safety standards through shared licensing verification. The bill establishes a framework for states to cooperate on licensure, ensuring public safety without requiring new individual licenses for cross-state work.
