<br />SB 0213 <br /> <br />Relating Clause: Relating to health care; creating new provisions; and amending ORS 441.094 and <br />682.220. <br /> <br />Title: Makes legislative findings regarding emergency medical services. Establishes duty of <br />emergency medical personnel to refer patients who do not have emergency medical <br />conditions to appropriate treatment settings. <br /> <br />Sponsored by: Sponsored by Senator BATES (Presession filed.) <br /> <br />URL: http://www.leg.state.or.us/11reg/measpdf/sb0200.dir/sb0213.intro.pdf <br /> <br />Contact Respondent Dept Updated Priority Recommendation <br />Joann Eppli FIRE 1/27/2011 Pri 1 Oppose <br /> <br />Comments: This bill has been proposed by insurance carriers. If passed, insurance carriers would <br />have the right to not pay for services provided if in THEIR opinion the patient did not <br />require transport. This could further destabilize the Ambulance Transport Fund revenue <br />stream. It also puts the paramedics in the field in the position of making diagnosis, where <br />currently, they make assessments. This would also give insurance companies the ability <br />to not pay for treatment if further diagnosis at the hospital, after definitive testing, proves <br />our “diagnosis” incorrect. <br /> <br /> <br />SB 0310 <br /> <br />Relating Clause: Relating to exemptions to property taxation; creating new provisions; amending ORS <br />264.110, 285C.255, 285C.406, 307.060, 307.095, 307.110, 307.175, 307.518, 307.529, <br />307.535, 307.637, 307.651, 307.681, 308.236, 308.250, 308.256, 308.290, 308.450, <br />308.47 <br /> <br />Title: Creates and adjusts sunset dates for certain exemptions to property taxation.

These bills amend numerous statutes <br />concerning property tax exemptions. While most exemptions would simply be granted <br />sunset date extensions, several small exemptions would be eliminated. No new <br />exemptions would be created in the bills as introduced. The most significant change for <br />20 <br /> <br /> <br />
