OK HB1888

Renames the "Rural Ambulance Service Districts Act" to the "Ambulance Service Districts Act" and expands its scope beyond rural areas to include municipalities with populations of 8,500 or less.

Requires counties with populations of 500,000 or less to develop and present emergency medical services plans by April 1, 2011, addressing funding, countywide coverage, and 9-1-1 response capabilities.

Allows a city or town with 8,500 or fewer residents to have the district's board of directors be the governing body of that municipality, with at least one board member from the participating city or town.

Establishes mandatory duty for all licensed ambulance services to respond appropriately within their licensed area when called for emergency service regardless of patient's ability to pay, with mutual aid requirements if the service cannot physically respond.

Modifies petition requirements to 25% of registered voters instead of "any two or more rural residents," and requires county election board verification of signatures before presentation to county commissioners.
