and obtain a license as a Intermediate Service. Additionally, all individuals operating as
Intermediates with a 9-1-1
response service must be trained through a department (DHS) approved

Intermediate Service
Licensure
If an Intermediate service is not a licensed provider submit an operational plan.
Follow the links below for the needed documents:
Individual Intermediate Certification
Just like any other type of EMS licensure, an individual must obtain
their initial Intermediate provider license within 24 months of successfully completing the
Intermediate course.
This must be completed from their E-Licensing account which can be accessed by
clicking this E-Licensing
(exit DHS) link. After this has been
obtained the Intermediate will need to complete a Local Credential Agreement (LCA)
for the service they wish to be affiliated with. Only after both the
Service and Medical Directors approve the LCA will the individual be added to
the service's roster.
For specific requirements for all
levels go to the Renewal/Retraining
Requirements page.
