CME Submission Portal (2024 Revision)

 

The Continuing Medical Education (CME) Recertification Program is a state-wide recertification option that allows a Certified First Responder (CFR), Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (AEMT), Emergency Medical Technician – Critical Care (EMT- CC), or Paramedic (AEMT-P) to renew certification without the need to complete a cognitive or psychomotor certification examination. Please use this form below to submit the required materials for the CME Recertification Program. 

The portal only accepts a CME Recertification package (which may include a voucher for only that provider) for one individual provider.  

The AC3253-S and other information can be found on our website at: http://www.health.ny.gov/nysdoh/ems/main.htm. If you have questions regarding submission of vouchers, please contact our Funding Unit at (518) 402-0996.

Voucher Section

CME Recertification: Students who are members of agencies participating in the CME Recertification program and obtain their training through an approved course sponsor, will be eligible for reimbursement of the mandatory core content hours at the CME refresher rate. Course sponsors may NOT seek reimbursement for the practical skill examinations for these students.

Agencies submitting vouchers for students enrolled in the CME recertification program may submit their vouchers once the student has been recertified and received their new EMT certification card. Through a Memorandum of Understanding, a course sponsor may charge an agency for providing CME content.

Course sponsors who are submitting vouchers for students enrolled in the CME recertification program and have a memorandum of understanding with the student and/or agency, may submit their voucher once the student has completed the “core” portion of the CME recertification process." (Bureau of EMS, Policy Statement 20-01)

Voucher Information

CME Recertification: Students who are members of agencies participating in the CME Recertification program and obtain their training through an approved course sponsor, will be eligible for reimbursement of the mandatory core content hours at the CME refresher rate.

Course sponsors may NOT seek reimbursement for the practical skill examinations for these students.

Agencies who are submitting vouchers for students enrolled in the CME recertification program may submit their vouchers at the time of application. Vouchers are processed upon recertification of the provider.

Course Sponsors teaching a Core content refresher are eligible for reimbursement of the student upon successful completion of the course. In this case, the Course Sponsor has priority on these funds. The agency may voucher only if the agency is paying the Course Sponsor, or Course Sponsor has sought reimbursement funding for the registered course.
