Hello,

I have heard the aeromedical folks are convening a large group of
stakeholders and holding a meeting this month or next. I would imagine they
would be able to advise about representation at that meeting...seems
redundant and detrimental to them and EMS to form different task
forces/groups. Should be all be in this together? I would imagine NAEMT
would be a significant partner in this group.
