West Virginia creates $12M annual EMS funding from lottery profits, pending Senate approval.
The West Virginia House of Delegates unanimously passed HB 5168, creating a permanent $12 million annual funding stream for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) using lottery profits.
The funds will support salary enhancements, crisis response, mental health treatment, and county-level EMS operations, with distribution based on need and recruitment challenges.
While hailed as a critical first step, lawmakers acknowledge the funding falls short of fully addressing deep-seated financial struggles that have led to EMS unit closures.
The bill now moves to the Senate for consideration.
