How can a single professional voice influence the legislative landscape of the EMS profession?
In this episode of Registry Insider, Bill Seifarth sits down with Rob Lawrence of Prodigy EMS, who is the current executive director of the California Ambulance Association. Rob joins the show during the EMS Association Summit to discuss the vital role of advocacy at every level of government. The conversation explores how every Clinician acts as a politician when they educate local and federal officials on the true cost of readiness and the necessity of fair reimbursement. Rob also shares insights on successful initiatives, such as implementing emergency medical dispatch requirements and building strong partnerships with labor unions.
