Are the salaries of Emergency Medical Technicians countable for reimbursement?
Yes, medical personnel salaries would be countable. However, if they are also serving in another position such as a fire fighter, the county would need to back out the percentage of time the person spends on fire fighting and deduct that amount of salary from the countable (EMT) portion. First responder services are not countable. The cost of the equipment and training the county provides to the first responders would be countable.
