How South Carolina Emergency Medical Technician license verification works

A Emergency Medical Technician in South Carolina is licensed by the SC 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 license_type status issued expires national_ems_id certifications full_name suffix birth_date middle_name alerts instructor_topics.

Board note: SC-EMS: South Carolina Department of Public Health, Bureau of EMS public personnel lookup on ImageTrend License Management (southcarolina.imagetrendlicense.com, enterprise e8c6720a…); open JSON API users/PublicLookupUser + getusercertifications, no reCAPTCHA; numbers are SC + 6 digits (SC020760); rows carry date_of_birth, middle_name, alert_count and instructor_topics; non-provider levels (Driver, Athletic Trainer) appear in the same lookup. Statuses seen: Active, Current, Provisional, Suspended, Expired. DOB published. Levels → emt/aemt/paramedic per the connector's PROFESSIONS map. Captured 2026-11-04; canary Timothy Bausmith (EMT, Active, exp 2029-12-15, DOB published).

EMS Compact (REPLICA) and multistate Emergency Medical Technician licenses

When the South Carolina 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.
