​​​​The United States EMS Compact authorizes EMS providers practice within the State of Nebraska and other Compact member states under the Privilege to Practice.  This allows EMS providers with a valid privilege to practice to respond in routine and emergency circumstances. 

​The compact requires each member state to perform background checks and require National Registry of Emergency Medical Technician certification for initial provider credentialing.  The compact also gives members states authority over EMS personnel from other members states as if they were licensed within that state to regulate and discipline licensees. 

The EMS Compact has a Compact Commission whose primary role is to establish by-laws, regulations, policies and maintain an national established coordinated database.  Meeting minutes as well as dates and times of Commission meetings can be find on The EMS Compact Website.
