NY to NJ Paramedic Reciprocity

I can't seem to find a simple answer online. How does one get Paramedic reciprocity from NY to NJ ?

You go to http://www.njems.us, create an account, and in a couple of months, they'll send you paperwork and instructions

What perplexes me is do you need a sponsor hospital to get reciprocity?

I looked into EMT reciprocity there a while back, but never got it. You had to do the usual of sending information in but also take a few of their state classes, not sure if it is the same for Paramedic. I did find the staff there very easy to work with over the phone. THey did want you to have a sponsor department to take the classes but were flexible about that.
