Yea, I used this site to provide the levels. Hence the ETT and Defib Tech. Just wondering, do you have a link to something showing that Defib was phased out?

Just wondering, could it be something that has limited use, kinda of like the California EMT-II (less than 200 providers state wide per one report online)? I wonder if it could be something that has so few providers that most people think it either doesn't exist or has been phased out.

As far as the first responder titles go, the page might be changed to "Emergency Responders by State" and notes could be added for lowest ambulance provider and use of NREMT. That said, I'm a little bit done with that list for a while. Digging through 50 state websites is a pain in the rear.

Edit: I just did a search on the "ttp://hss.state.ak.us/apps/EMSCert/ResponderSearchPage.aspx" page which showed no hits for either level...

Nice, comprehensive list. I'd read some things about Illinois also having the EMT-Coal Mine certification and even seen some sources that say we do have it, but the Illinois Dept of Public Health seems not to have heard of it. Of course, no matter what one asks the IDPH EMS Division, they refer you to the EMS Region you live in and here in IL my Region is run by one person whose qualification for the job of Regional EMS co-ordinator seems to be the ability to kiss the right butt. And we all know that state jobs are virtually impossible to lose...as an example, visit your local DMV
