How to read the table
Law enacted
The state has adopted Compact legislation.
Law in force
The legislation's effective status, including any delayed or conditional implementation.
Connected to NEMSCD
The state exchanges licence data with the National EMS Coordinated Database
(NEMSCD), so a privilege can be verified.
Database status alone does not determine legal eligibility.
The Commission directs eligible clinicians whose privilege is not displayed to the
state office for verification, including in Pennsylvania.
Contract on privilege alone
Whether a home-state-licensed medic can take a 13-week contract without full state licensure.
The recorded snapshot includes states with law in force but no database connection.

Act 2017-372, HB250 , establishes the Emergency Medical Services Personnel Licensure Interstate Compact to provide reciprocity among member states on matters relating to the discipline and conditions of practice of emergency medical services personnel. The act also amends Section 22-18-6, Code of Alabama 1975, relating to emergency care, to exempt EMS personnel with the privilege to practice in compact states from licensure by the Alabama Board of Health. EFFECTIVE DATE: May 25, 2017.

Does it expire? There is no time limit. Your Privilege to Practice remains valid as long as you continue to meet eligibility requirements: an active, unrestricted EMS license in a participating Home State, affiliation with an EMS agency authorized in the remote state, practice under a local EMS Medical Director in compliance with the remote state's laws and rules, and adherence to the Professional Code of Conduct . Does it only apply during emergencies? No. The Compact applies at all times, not only during declared emergencies.

Evidence details
The Commissioner page gives two dates that do not resolve present activation: EMS Compact provisions took effect September 20, 2026, but the Compact is in force in Alaska as of October 9, 2026 — six days after this October 3 verification — while the same page labels Alaska a participating, fully integrated state where qualified clinicians hold privilege. The enrolled HB 110 text read carries no approval date, signature block, or EMS-section effective date (its Sec. 34 defers only unrelated sections to January 1, 2027), so independent law does not resolve whether privilege is exercisable on October 3. No current legal privilege is inferred from integration status.
Reported integration status only. The Commission publishes no connection date, and integration does not establish legal activation — see compact.statutorily_effective.

Partly supported — Arizona law is in force (Commissioner passage, additional read evidence: 'Arizona's law took effect on September 12, 2026, and the EMS Compact is in force in Arizona as of that date'), and privilege carries no time limit per the FAQ, so a 13-week contract is covered for an eligible clinician — but the route is agency-dependent: affiliation with an Arizona-authorized agency, local medical direction, and local onboarding are required, and agencies decide hiring and credentialing.

Partly supported — The effective date is derived from the default-date rule and full-act review. Act 384 was approved March 20, 2025, but the full official act contains no act-wide emergency clause or specified effective date; the Bureau of Legislative Research states the default date for 2025 acts without either provision is August 5, 2025.

Privilege does cover a 13-week contract here — no separate Indiana certification is needed — but it does not attach to you, it attaches to the pairing of you and a particular Indiana-certified organisation whose medical director signs off, after you have obtained a PSID and filed the PTP registration. If the agency will not sponsor the registration, the privilege is worthless in Indiana. Confidence is high because Indiana states the requirement itself, on its own site, in its own words.
Show the state's exact wording
Applicants wishing to use their PTP must have an affiliating Indiana state certified EMS organization, and that organization's medical director's approval to receive authorization to practice in Indiana.

Does it expire? There is no time limit. Your Privilege to Practice remains valid as long as you continue to meet eligibility requirements: an active, unrestricted EMS license in a participating Home State, affiliation with an EMS agency authorized in the remote state, practice under a local EMS Medical Director in compliance with the remote state's laws and rules, and adherence to the Professional Code of Conduct .

Partly supported — Agency-dependent per EMSIB 2025-06: a Pennsylvania agency adds the PTP provider to its agency PTP roster and the agency medical director credentials them as other agency personnel; a separate Pennsylvania EMSVO certification is still required to drive. Contract eligibility turns on the hiring agency and its medical director, not on privilege duration alone.

The Pennsylvania EMS Registry has been updated so EMS agency managers can utilize these eligible providers without completing the certification by endorsement process. Any agency utilizing out of state EMS Compact providers must add the PTP provider to their roster as described below. For the purposes of safety or spot inspections regional EMS council staff will verify a PTP provider's status via their home state's certification and your agency's PTP roster in the EMS Registry. The EMS agency medical director is responsible for credentialing a PTP provider via the same process as they credential the agency's other EMS personnel, specifically at the ALS level.

Delayed implementation: Compact provisions did not take effect until the Compact was enacted into law by 10 states.

Partly supported — Utah is participating and fully integrated per the Commissioner. The national FAQ places no time limit on privilege while eligibility continues, so a 13-week duration is not itself a bar. Hiring remains agency-dependent; Utah guidance requires a local roster or agency authorized to operate in Utah, local protocols and scope, required orientation and medical-director review if required. Utah's Valid database-display checklist must be reconciled with the national state-office verification fallback if a record is absent; no full Utah license requirement is inferred solely from absence.

Existing NREMT disagreement remains unadjudicated; this source establishes enacted state law but does not resolve the NREMT listing conflict.

What this means for you
Do not rely on one source alone; check both before acting.
Compact law in force
Yes
Since
Delayed implementation: The Compact shall come into effect on the date on which the Compact statute is enacted into law in the tenth member state.
The West Virginia Legislature's completed-legislation record gives HB 4179's effective date as May 17, 2020.

The signed enrolled act states it was passed February 17, 2020 and took effect ninety days from passage; it also contains the Compact's separate tenth-member-state activation trigger. That trigger is distinct from West Virginia's state-law effective date.

The Commission's state-specific Commissioner page identifies West Virginia as fully integrated with NEMSCD.

This establishes current database integration, distinct from enactment and statutory effect. The page does not publish the initial connection date, so connected_date remains null.
Yes — compact privilege alone is sufficient for a travel contract.
Partly supported — The Commission states privilege carries no time limit and is not restricted to declared emergencies, so a 13-week contract is covered provided the medic holds an unrestricted licence in another Member State, is affiliated with an agency authorised in West Virginia, and practises under a physician medical director. Confidence is medium and quote_supports is partial because this is the Commission speaking nationally, not West Virginia speaking about West Virginia. It is reversed for anyone who already holds a West Virginia licence of any status — see compact.privilege.home_state_licenses.

Does it expire? There is no time limit. Your Privilege to Practice remains valid as long as you continue to meet eligibility requirements: an active, unrestricted EMS license in a participating Home State, affiliation with an EMS agency authorized in the remote state, practice under a local EMS Medical Director in compliance with the remote state's laws and rules, and adherence to the Professional Code of Conduct . Does it only apply during emergencies? No. The Compact applies at all times, not only during declared emergencies.

Partly supported — ABSENCE-BASED. Wisconsin does not appear in the Commission's State Laws table, which describes itself as a complete list of enacted statutes. Confidence is medium rather than high because no source affirmatively states that Wisconsin is not a member — the claim follows from absence, and the Commission's own count of participating states does not match the number of rows in this table (see source_caveats).

This section provides a complete list of the individual state statutes as enacted, representing each state's legal adoption of the United States EMS Compact.

Partly supported — ABSENCE-BASED, and downstream of compact.enacted: nothing can take effect in Wisconsin because nothing has been enacted. has_delayed_implementation_clause is false because there is no clause — not because a clause was read and found to be absent.

Partly supported — The Commission's current state page says Wisconsin has not yet joined the EMS Compact. The Commission describes NEMSCD data as covering participating states, so this supports nonparticipation rather than an independent integration check. This does not establish legal activation or practitioner eligibility in other states.

No — full state licensure is required regardless of compact privilege.
Partly supported — The Commission's current state-specific page explicitly says Wisconsin has not yet joined the EMS Compact. That supports the absence of a Compact privilege in this destination; the full-license-required assessment is the resulting licensing implication and remains partial rather than a direct quotation of the state's licensing rules.

33-36-201 and 33-36-202. Section 3 expressly makes the act effective July 1, 2017. Section 14 separately states the Compact's tenth-member-state activation trigger; that national trigger is distinct from Wyoming's act effective date.
