Mich. Admin. Code R. 325.22126 - Life support agency; medical control; disciplinary action
Rule 126.
(1) A
medical control authority may exercise disciplinary action against a life
support agency or its emergency medical services personnel that may result in
the life support agency, or its personnel not being allowed to provide
prehospital emergency care. The basis for these actions must be for
noncompliance with protocols established by the medical control authority and
approved by the department. Disciplinary action may include the suspension,
limitation, or removal of medical control for the life support agency of a
medical control authority providing medical control, from an individual
providing emergency medical services care, or any other action authorized by
the code.
(2) If a suspension or
removal of medical control for a life support agency or individual occurs, the
life support agency or individual shall not operate or practice in that medical
control authority region until medical control is restored by the medical
control authority.
(3) If a
suspension or removal of medical control for a life support agency or
individual occurs, the life support agency or individual may appeal the
decision to the medical control authority. After appeals to the medical control
authority have been exhausted, the life support agency or individual may appeal
the medical control authority's decision to the statewide emergency medical
services coordination committee. An appeal to the emergency medical services
coordination committee must be filed with the department in writing not more
than 30 calendar days following notification to the agency or individual of the
final determination of the medical control authority.
(4) The emergency medical services
coordination committee shall review the appeal of a life support agency or
individual and make a recommendation to the department. The department shall
consider the emergency medical services coordination committee recommendation
and conduct its own review of the appeal. If the department determines that
licensure action is required, the department shall provide a hearing in
accordance with the code and chapter 4 of the administrative procedures act of
1969, 1969 PA 369, MCL
24.271 to
