About NYC REMSCO
The Regional Emergency Medical Services Council of New York City, Inc., is a not-for-profit, tax-exempt corporation created in 1974, whose function is to improve and coordinate emergency medical services in New York City. In 1976, the Council was designated by the Commissioner of Health of the State of New York as the Regional Emergency Medical Services Council of New York City under Article 30 of the Public Health Law.
The Regional Emergency Medical Services Council of New York (REMSCO) is responsible to the State of New York for coordinating medical services in all five boroughs of New York City. The Council was established and designated to be the policy and administrative authority within the New York City region.
The Regional Emergency Medical Advisory Committee (REMAC) was established to provide medical control for the EMS System.
REMAC develops policies, procedures and triage, treatment and transportation protocols which are consistent with the standards of the New York State Medical Advisory Committee but address the specific needs of New York City.
