The objective of this project was to engage a diverse group of stakeholders in a national dialogue about common challenges toward EMS innovation faced at the local level. This resulting national framework document seeks to serve as a guide for local communities and states to overcome those barriers and enable rapid cycle testing of promising ideas and treatments.Though the authors of this document understand the important role Congress and federal agencies play in EMS, this document was primarily written to provide a framework that describes how local stakeholders can promote innovation in the absence of federal action.
