Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill appropriates $600,000 in fiscal year 2025-26 to the Department of Health Services for grants for emergency medical services programs to employ a community paramedic or community emergency medical services practitioner, as provided in other legislation. In addition, the bill appropriates $200,000 in each of fiscal years 2025-26 and 2026-27 to DHS for grants to the Wisconsin Institute of Healthy Aging, as provided in the other legislation. If the other legislation is not enacted into law during the 2025 legislative session, the appropriation of the money is void.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
