Does it impact providers who deliver patients in Edinburg. or just providers

who pick up?

Actually the news got it wrong. It was approved to the BLS level. But the

rest of it is just a bunch of BS too. Like requiring all providers that do

business in Edinburg to open an office in town. This means whether you're

just transporting to the ER, dialysis or the doctor. They were even

requiring services to respond when asked to do so by FD or PD. Usually

becasue their 911 provider is out doing transfers. This is why if the city

is so worried about this they need to start policing their own first.

Salvador,

You seem to have strong feelings about this. So we can understand your

perspective, do you have an interest in one of the effected companies?
