(b) The board may issue subpoenas in accordance with the provisions of Kan. Stat. Ann. § 65-6111(d), and amendments thereto, to compel an operator holding a permit to make access to or for the production of records regarding services performed and to furnish such other information as the board may require to carry out the provisions of this act to the same extent and subject to the same limitations as would apply if the subpoenas were issued or served in aid of a civil action in the district court. A copy of such records shall be kept in the operator’s files for a period of not less than three years.

(c) The board also may require operators to submit lists of personnel employed and to notify the board of any changes in personnel or in ownership of the ambulance service.
