A large, and especially important, portion of what EMSAC does is very much "behind the scenes." Such as helping craft the language that is used in legislation sponsored by our state senators and representatives. Our Colorado legislature convenes January 14. And EMS Day at the Capitol is February 10.

NAEMT's understanding is that Medicare & other such payments will continue uninterrupted. If it lasts more than 2 weeks, we could encounter an issue with payments not including extenders but would be paid retroactively.
