Summary

The Emergency Medical Air Transportation Act, until January 1, 2018, imposes specified penalties for certain Vehicle Code and local ordinance violations. The act requires that the moneys generated from those penalties be deposited by counties into a county emergency medical air transportation act fund, and thereafter requires the counties to transfer those moneys, less administrative costs, to the Emergency Medical Air Transportation Act Fund established in the State Treasury, as provided. The act requires moneys in the Emergency Medical Air Transportation Act Fund to be made available, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to the State Department of Health Care Services for administrative costs, and to offset the state portion of the Medi-Cal reimbursement rate for emergency medical air transportation services and to augment emergency medical air transportation reimbursement payments made through the Medi-Cal program, as specified. This bill would, instead, provide that the county or the court that imposed the fine shall transfer the moneys collected pursuant to this act to the Emergency Medical Air Transportation Act Fund in accordance with certain procedures set out in the Government Code.
