"Receiving hospital" means a licensed general acute care hospital with a special permit for basic or comprehensive emergency service, which has not been designated as a trauma center according to this Chapter, but which has been formally assigned a role in the trauma care system by the local EMS agency. In rural areas, the local EMS agency may approve standby emergency service if basic or comprehensive services are not available.
