How Colorado Paramedic license verification works

A Paramedic in Colorado is licensed by the CO EMS Office. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: name license_number license_type status issued expires national_ems_id certifications flags birth_date.

Board note: CO-EMS: CDPHE EMTS branch lookup on ImageTrend License Management (colorado.imagetrendlicense.com, enterprise 458fb065…); open JSON API users/PublicLookupUser + getusercertifications, no reCAPTCHA; EMT/Advanced EMT/EMT-Intermediate/Paramedic; publishes date of birth (checked when given); statuses Certified/Licensed/Probation(flagged)/Expired/Revoked/Denied/Retired; no discipline columns; captured 2026-11-03

What a Paramedic license check returns

Field checkPasses when
license_numberEqual to the board's number, ignoring prefix and leading zeros
nameLast name or declared alias matches; first name exact or nickname
license_typeThe record is a Paramedic license, strictly (no near-miss types)
statusThe board shows an active status; probation is active with a flag
expiresExpiration is on or after today, where the board publishes it
disciplinary_actionsRecorded and flagged with any order documents; never silently dropped

Verdicts: verified, discrepancy, not_found, unable_to_verify (with a reason), pending. See how verdicts are decided.

EMS Compact (REPLICA) and multistate Paramedic licenses

Paramedic licenses can carry a multistate privilege under the EMS Compact (REPLICA). When the Colorado record shows a multistate license, the result includes multistate: true and the privilege states. Privilege status is confirmed at the compact's own lookup, never inferred.
