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: Tier I Tier I (cont.)

Y V Y VV V V VAV1 VKAV`-.-jVI7KAriT11KVAt WELD COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT 1555 North 17th Avenue, Greeley, CO 80631 www.weldhealth.org Recommendation of the Weld County Emergency Medical/Trauma Service Council for: Ambulnz 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 Ambulnz. FINDING #2: The EMTS Council Voting members did not identify any negative findings relating to the service performed by the applicant. Ambulnz 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 Ambulnz for a Tier II Weld County Ambulance License.
