§ 144E.12 — Licensure of Air Ambulance Services
Plain-Language Summary
This section covers licensing for air ambulance services (helicopter and fixed-wing). Air ambulance services follow a simpler application process than ground ambulances. They do not need to go through the full public comment and hearing process, and they do not need a designated primary service area.
144E.12 LICENSURE OF AIR AMBULANCE SERVICES.
Except for submission of a written application to the director on a form provided by the director, an application to provide air ambulance service shall be exempt from the provisions of section 144E.11. A license issued pursuant to this section need not designate a primary service area. No license shall be issued under this section unless the director determines that the applicant complies with sections 144E.10, 144E.11, subdivision 1, 144E.121 to 144E.127, and 144E.18 and the requirements of applicable federal and state statutes and rules governing aviation operations within the state.
