THE POWER OF GOING THE EXTRA MILE: Living Our EMS Calling Every Single Day Going the extra mile is a selfless effort to exceed what is expected of us, as we compassionately prioritize the patient's needs in all that we do. It demonstrates a commitment to providing exceptional patient care that exceeds the ordinary, with a lasting impact like no other. Steve will share the three amazing powers of going the extra mile that we each possess – and how those powers can help us heal the hurting, recognize our own self-worth, and set a positive example for others. It’s not just a distance but a measure of the heart and soul we put into making a positive difference in the lives of those we serve. 2. THE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE COMPLIANCE UPDATE: What You Need to Know! This favorite topic is packed with all the latest developments in Medicare, reimbursement, and workplace law compliance. This session addresses trends in government enforcement, key ambulance fraud and false claims cases, and take-away lessons. The audit world has undergone drastic changes in the post-COVID healthcare compliance landscape, with the introduction of several new audit initiatives. We will cover EMS compliance on all fronts, including employment-related issues. You’ll gain the practical strategies you need to help keep your agency from becoming the next bad news headline in the ambulance industry. #EBTS2025 #EducationByTheSea #EMSTraining #TexasEMS
