Relating to authorizing the Department of Health to promulgate a legislative rule relating to emergency medical services
HB 2243 authorizes West Virginia's Department of Health to implement a specific emergency medical services rule (64 CSR 48) that was already filed in the State Register on August 27, 2024. The bill formally approves the department's authority to enforce this existing rule without creating new requirements or altering current EMS practices. It directly affects emergency medical service providers and facilities operating under state regulations. This is a procedural authorization, not a substantive policy change, as the rule itself was previously developed and submitted.
