The United States Emergency Medical Services Compact
- Enhances Public Protection
- Standardizes EMS Licensing
- Reduces Bureaucracy
- Expands EMS Practitioner Mobility
- Expedites Lateral Transfers
EMS practitioners with a valid, unrestricted EMS license in one Compact Member State have a Privilege to Practice recognized in all Compact Member States!
Confirm a Privilege to Practice
To confirm the Privilege to Practice for an EMS Practitioner enter the 12-digit (####-####-####) National EMS ID Number in the form below. (Learn how to find your National EMS ID Number here.) Should there be any discrepancies or if the status isn't displayed, please contact the State EMS Office that issued the EMS license.
The Privilege to Practice is only valid and displayed if:
- The state has passed the EMS Compact legislation. If your state is not yet a member of the EMS Compact, learn how you can help change that here.
- Member States have submitted EMS licensure data to the National EMS Coordinated Database (Blue states on the map).
