[Docket No. NHTSA–2016–0035]
Revision of the Emergency Medical
Services Agenda for the Future;
Request for Information
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA),
Department of Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice; request for information.
AGENCY:
NHTSA, on behalf of the
Federal Interagency Committee on
Emergency Medical Services (FICEMS),
is seeking comments from all sources
(public, private, governmental,
academic, professional, public interest
groups, and other interested parties) on
the planned revision of the 1996
Emergency Medical Services Agenda for
the Future (EMS Agenda).
FICEMS was created (42 U.S.C. 300d–
4) by the Secretaries of Transportation,
Health and Human Services and
Homeland Security to, in part, ensure
coordination among the Federal
agencies involved with State, local,
tribal or regional emergency medical

services and 9–1–1 systems. FICEMS
has statutory authority to identify State
and local Emergency Medical Services
(EMS) and 9–1–1 needs, to recommend
new or expanded programs and to
identify the ways in which Federal
agencies can streamline their processes
for support of EMS. FICEMS includes
representatives from the Department of
Defense (DoD) Office of the Assistant
Secretary of Defense—Health Affairs,
the Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) Office of the Assistant
Secretary for Preparedness and
Response (ASPR), HHS Indian Health
Service (IHS), HHS Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), HHS
Health Resources and Services
Administration (HRSA), HHS Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid Services
(CMS), the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) Office of Health Affairs
(OHA), DHS U.S. Fire Administration
(USFA), NHTSA, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
and a State EMS Director appointed by
the Secretary of Transportation.
On June 19, 2014, FICEMS
unanimously approved a motion to
proceed with a revision of the EMS
Agenda, with a focus on data-driven
approaches to future improvements.
This followed an April 24, 2014 letter
in which the National Emergency
Medical Services Advisory Council
(NEMSAC) issued recommendations to
NHTSA regarding revision of the EMS
Agenda. NEMSAC’s recommendations
were as follows:
• A major revision of the EMS
Agenda for the Future should be
undertaken as soon as possible;
• The revision process should be
guided by an external entity (not
NEMSAC) that will ensure a consensusand data-driven process with broad
stakeholder representation. The goal
should be to replicate the process used
to develop the original EMS Agenda for
the Future, published in 1996;
• The U.S. Department of
Transportation should seek financial
support and assistance from members of
FICEMS to accomplish this task.
The purpose of this notice is to solicit
comments on the planned revision of
the EMS Agenda, and to request
responses to specific questions provided
below. This is neither a request for
proposals nor an invitation for bids.
DATES: It is requested that comments on
this announcement be submitted by
June 30, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
In 1996 NHTSA, in partnership with
HRSA, published the EMS Agenda
(www.ems.gov/pdf/2010/
EMSAgendaWeb_7-06-10.pdf). The
document created a vision for the future
of EMS systems in the United States and
led to EMS system improvements across
the Nation. Changes envisioned by the
EMS Agenda included the National
EMS Information System (NEMSIS), the
‘‘EMS Education Agenda for the Future:
A Systems Approach’’, universal
wireless 9–1–1, automatic crash
notification, the recognition of EMS as
a physician sub-specialty, and many
others.
The EMS Agenda included the
following vision statement: ‘‘Emergency
medical services (EMS) of the future
will be community-based health
management that is fully integrated with
the overall health care system. It will
have the ability to identify and modify
illness and injury risks, provide acute
illness and injury care and follow-up,
and contribute to treatment of chronic
conditions and community health
monitoring. This new entity will be
developed from redistribution of
existing health care resources and will
be integrated with other health care
providers and public health and public
safety agencies. It will improve
community health and result in more
appropriate use of acute health care
resources. EMS will remain the public’s
emergency medical safety net.’’
Furthermore, the EMS Agenda
proposed development of the following
14 EMS attributes:
• Integration of Health Services;
• EMS Research;
• Legislation and Regulation;
• System Finance;
• Human Resources;
