EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES ACCESS TASK FORCE REPORT
On May 25, 2006,
Governor Janet Napolitano signed Executive Order 2006-09, forming the Emergency
Medical Services Access Task Force (“EMSA Task Force”). The Executive Order
recognized that Arizona faces increasing strain on its medical emergency and
trauma systems, due in part to the combination of explosive population growth
and national and State physician shortages. The Governor charged the EMSA Task
Force with assessing the status of the physician supply, including physicians
available to hospital emergency departments and trauma services, and developing
recommendations to improve the number of physicians who are providing emergency
and trauma care in our State.
