Streamlines emergency medical technician certification process for certain veterans.

The bill amends current law to streamline the emergency medical technician (EMT-Basic) certification process for certain veterans. It defines "servicemember" to include enlisted personnel from any branch of the Armed Forces or the National Guard, or veterans honorably discharged. To be certified, a servicemember must possess a current EMT certification from the National Registry, have served as a Combat Army Medic, Navy Hospital Corpsman, or equivalent, and pass a criminal history background check.
