A person may appeal a disputed final decision of the EMS Board regarding protocols by filing a notice of appeal to the EMS Board with the Executive Director of MIEMSS within 20 days from receipt of the EMS Board's decision or 45 days from the date of the decision, whichever occurs first. The appeal shall state with specificity the reasons why the EMS Board should reconsider its decision. A person who files an appeal will be granted a hearing before the EMS Board or, if the Board so elects and notifies the appealing party, the Office of Administrative Hearings. An appeal hearing is governed by COMAR 28.02.01. If the hearing is conducted by the Office of Administrative Hearings, COMAR 30.02.06.22 and .23 shall also apply. A person who is party to a hearing under this regulation may seek judicial review of the EMS Board's final action under State Government Article, §10-222, Annotated Code of Maryland. The EMS Board shall be party to the proceeding.
