How Rhode Island Advanced EMT license verification works

A Advanced EMT in Rhode Island is licensed by the RI 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: license_number profession license_type status issued expires secondary_license_type education city state.

Board note: RIDOH Center for EMS licenses on the same lookup ('Emergency Medical Services'): EMT (EMT#####), AEMT, Paramedic, legacy EMT-Cardiac/Intermediate/Ambulance.

What a Advanced EMT 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 Advanced EMT 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 Advanced EMT licenses

Advanced EMT licenses can carry a multistate privilege under the EMS Compact (REPLICA). When the Rhode Island 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.
