"I must have been the first person in Ada to register. My local ambulance service wasn't on yet so I called and encouraged them to join," said Andrea Pogue, a registered nurse and consultant for CareerTech. "Now my local EMS providers, 9-1-1 dispatch, fire, police, even local hospitals are beginning to get behind this incredible service."
In October, approximately 78,000 state employees and dependents will be able to make iB one of their health benefits through the Oklahoma Employees Benefits Council (EBC). The service is currently being introduced to all state agencies in all 77 counties through the EBC staff and 300 State Benefit Coordinators.
"The popularity of iB is being driven by the rapid acceptance of local EMS providers," Roberts added. "Patent-pending technology is nice to have. Getting the leading EMS organizations and our state government to make the technology accessible to millions of people is even better."
