EMS Interoperability Task Force August 10, 11a-12:30p MT

[Joshua Legler]

EMS Interoperability Task Force,

 

Our next call is coming up in a week:

 

Thursday, August 10, 11a-12:30p Mountain Time

https://utah-health.zoom.us/j/8085088855

 

We’re starting into a detailed discussion of each step in the Paramedicine Care Flow Sequence Diagram. For this next call, we’ve decided to start with the step where EMS shares data with the hospital. We have several things to look at:

 

• HL7 CDA EMS Patient Care Report: Is this implementation guide ready to use, and can hospitals support it?
• IHE Paramedicine Care Summary: Is this profile ready to use, can hospitals support it, and how does it relate to the HL7 CDA EMS PCR?
• HL7 CDA Continuity of Care Document: Can and should this be supported?
• HL7 CDA Unstructured Document: How much is this being used today?
• What about sending bits of EMS information (not a full report)?
• Hospital specialty team alert/activation
• ECGs
• A set of vitals
• Narrative
• What resources are needed to help software transform NEMSIS data into the desired format(s)?

 

As you can see, we have lots of unanswered questions in this list. We’ll need your help figuring out the answers!

 

Thanks,

 

Josh

 

PS: Registration for the NEMSIS Annual Meeting, including the pre-conference interoperability workshop, closes tomorrow (Friday, August 4) at 4p MT. I look forward to seeing many of you there!
