The Health Data Exchange allows the flow of information between EMS charts and the hospital chart, helping us to easily look at outcomes and how EMS care has affected the patient. The best way to check your own knowledge and understanding of prehospital care is to know how the patient turned out. Was your diagnosis right? Did they decompensate after transport? Scan the patient’s sticker into our electronic patient care record and you can find this out. In this episode I sit down with 4 very special guests: Travis Baker, PA-C, our own Paramedic Practitioner; Remle Crowe, PhD, Data Scientist for ESO Solutions; Jason Gilliam, LP, Designated Medical Officer and Captain at ATCEMS; and Bill Leggio, EdD, our Clinical Standards and Practice Coordinator to talk about what we gain from this.
