→ Recognize community paramedicine, treat-in-place & treat-and-divert as core EMS — with permanent federal reimbursement
→ Commission a national American Paramedic Competence Framework modeled on Canada’s proven system
→ Designate physical and psychological health infrastructure as the 16th element of every EMS system
→ Give the profession a formal advisory role in federal rural health policy
