Naw man, I agree. That's why I said it's from the scene to the ER. But it tends to involve some sort of prehospital component even if it involves walk-ins. Transfers by nature, even if CCT, don't autmoatically qualify as EMS, unless maybe it comes into the ER and they need to transfer out. Rather than doing a transfer from the floors b/c they realize patient needs services at a different hospital. Flight nurses who transport from scenes most definitely ARE part of EMS, thoughEMS includes the ER. I bet if you look hard enough at the LA Co EMSA website you'll find licensing requirements and fees for the local emergency rooms and trauma centers. I can link the documents from OC EMSA if you'd like.
