     The eleven RETAC Regions in Colorado were formed through the passage of SB 00-180 in 2000. These eleven planning Regions work closely with the local stakeholders and the state EMTS to enhance the delivery of emergency medical and trauma services. This is accomplished through numerous and varied programs specific to each Region.
