Cal. Health & Safety Code § 1797.108 — The Emergency Medical Services Authority is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
Subject to the availability of funds appropriated therefor, the authority may contract with local EMS agencies to provide funding assistance to those agencies for planning, organizing, implementing, and maintaining regional emergency medical services systems.
In addition, the authority may provide special funding to multicounty EMS agencies which serve rural areas with extensive tourism, as determined by the authority, to reduce the burden on the rural EMS agency of providing the increased emergency medical services required due to that tourism.
Each local or multicounty EMS agency receiving funding pursuant to this section shall make a quarterly report to the authority on the functioning of the local EMS system. The authority may continue to transfer appropriated funds to the local EMS agency upon satisfactory operation.
