DATE: November 17, 2022
SUBJECT: 2023 Applications for Ambulance Service Licenses
Enclosed for the Board's review are 15 applications for ambulance service licensing, pursuant to Weld County
Code, Chapter 7, Emergency Medical Services, from the ambulance service providers listed below. The Weld
County Emergency Medical Trauma Service (EMTS) Council reviewed each application on November 16, 2022
and approved all 15 applications.
Changes from 2022 include the removal of Windsor -Severance Fire Protection District and Front Range Fire Rescue.
The areas previously covered by these two ambulance services will now be covered by UCHealth EMS. Additions
include PVHC dba UCHealth Lifeline, which will provide only critical care response, and Brighton Fire Rescue
District, whose application was previously submitted and approved in August 2022 for licensure through 2023.
Based on the delegated responsibility of the Department, we have reviewed the applications and have
deemed all ambulance services listed below to have met all applicable licensure application requirements as
per Chapter 7. As such, I am recommending the following ambulance service providers for licensure:

Recommendation of the Weld County Emergency Medical/Trauma Service Council
for: American Medical Response of Colorado
As required in Section 7-2-100.6.5., the EMTS Council should review the application to assess as to whether
the ambulance service will contribute to an efficient, effective, and coordinated emergency medical response
to residents of the County? Please include any findings related to response time, coordination with other
ambulance services, location, service area, etc. that is the basis for the Council's recommendation:
FINDING #1:
The EMTS Council Voting members have reviewed the above -noted agency and find that they contribute to an
efficient, effective, and coordinated emergency response as a Tier II service. Tier II agencies perform
interfacility transports, allowing designated 911 emergency transport units to remain in service within their
area. The citizens and guests of Weld County benefit from the service performed by American Medical
Response of Colorado.
FINDING #2:
The EMTS Council Voting members did not identify any negative findings relating to the service performed by
the applicant. American Medical Response of Colorado does not perform 911 response within the County nor
directly coordinate with other transport agencies and provides a service vital to the system.
FINDING #3:
In the overall review, the EMTS Council membership does not find any matter that would prohibit a
recommendation to the Weld County Board of County Commissioner.
Recommended Level of Service: TIER II
Recommended Service Area:
The service area indicated within the applicant's application packet is acceptable to the Council.
Other EMTS Council recommendations or comments:
The EMTS Council membership unanimously votes to recommend American Medical Response of Colorado for
a Tier II Weld County Ambulance License.
