Join the voice of Texas EMS.
TEMSA is the statewide coalition fighting to ensure every Texan — from urban centers to the most remote rural counties — has access to timely, high-quality emergency medical care, by championing the funding, workforce, and policy reforms that keep EMS systems viable.
Apply for Membership →Texas EMS agencies are on the front line every day — responding to 911 calls, navigating reimbursement, recruiting and retaining a workforce, and adapting to a regulatory landscape that never stops moving. TEMSA exists so they don’t face any of that alone.
For more than a decade, TEMSA has driven meaningful wins for the industry: payment reform, expanded EMS education, workforce funding, balance billing protections, and a clearer story about the value EMS delivers to every Texas community.
Whether you run a rural ambulance service, a metropolitan provider, or a hospital-based system, membership connects you to the leaders, the policy work, and the resources shaping the future of Texas EMS.
