This week's MedicCast News features a look at several mid-week news items. First off, a look at another high school EMS, Fire, and Rescue training program in Virginia. Next, a great article about an Firefighter/EMT who got to participate in a briefing with the president and his advisors on what is broken in U.S. healthcare.  Finally, a look at a report from the Maryland House of Delegates that seems to save the state medevac system intact and safe from for profit hospital programs looking for a piece of the action.
