PASSEDHouston City Council · 2025-11-12

The City Council is being asked to approve a formal letter allowing Angel EMS Inc. to apply to the State of Texas for a license to operate as an emergency medical services provider in Houston. Under state law, a new EMS company must receive this letter of approval from the local governing body before the state will issue a license.

What it means for you

If approved, Angel EMS Inc. would be authorized to pursue a state license to provide private, non-emergency medical transport services in Houston, which could give residents and hospitals more options for non-emergency medical transport.
