Why is the CAAPAC important?

1. Protecting the Interests of Private EMS
CAAPAC supports legislation and elected officials that understand the unique challenges and value of private ambulance services. Without advocacy, decisions about funding, regulations, and healthcare policy could be made without input from the very providers delivering critical emergency care.

2. Fighting for Fair Regulations
From reimbursement rates to licensing and operational requirements, countless laws affect ambulance operations. CAAPAC ensures lawmakers hear from those on the front lines and pushes back against harmful policies that could threaten service quality or sustainability.

3. Amplifying Member Voices
By pooling resources, CAAPAC gives CAA members collective influence far greater than any single organization could achieve alone. It allows the industry to speak with one voice on urgent issues.

4. Building Relationships with Lawmakers
Political contributions help build and maintain strategic relationships with policymakers who can champion pro-EMS legislation. CAAPAC helps elect and support those who prioritize emergency medical services and public safety.

5. Shaping the Future of Healthcare
With California healthcare policy in constant evolution, CAAPAC plays a crucial role in shaping decisions that affect everything from emergency response times to patient outcomes and operational funding.

In short, CAAPAC is essential to safeguarding the future and effectiveness of private ambulance services in California. It turns support into action—and ensures EMS voices are not only heard but respected.
