Would better safety tend to mean the use of the more modern twins (capable of meeting Class 1 at normal weights) for HEMS, rather than ageing 206s?

The only thing stopping a recapitalisation based around bigger, better-equipped helicopters is money, right, and the FAA's unwillingness to upset commercial operators by insisting on it?
