The IAFC and IAFF like EMS because you dont have to pay OT to firemen. And because cross trained firemen are more efficient. Maybe Medicare should pay less for fire based EMS then. Maybe someone should do a real study to see who provides better service - fire medics - 3rd service medics - volunteer medics - or - taxis. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
