Allows 17-year-olds to become licensed medical first responders and emergency medical technicians in Michigan.
This bill amends Michigan's Public Health Code to lower the age requirement for obtaining a license as a medical first responder or emergency medical technician from 18 to 17 years old. It maintains the existing licensing requirements, including passing examinations and paying applicable fees. The bill also outlines the fees for different levels of licensure, such as medical first responder, emergency medical technician, and paramedic. The changes will take effect only if a related bill, HB 5489, is enacted into law.
