Agency Run Form Reviews

In February, 2007 our QI department began reviewing one month of each agency’s run forms. The purpose of this process is to regularly assess quality assurance processes performed by pre-hospital care EMS personnel and agencies. The reviews thus far have recognized discrepancies, as well as successes. It is no doubt that our providers are sophisticated, hard working, and dedicated to EMS.

Thank you to all the agencies that have participated in the review process. Your cooperation has been appreciated and we are proud of the excellent service you provide. We are looking forward to giving our providers an aggregated county report.

State Data Reporting System-NEW UPDATE

The MI-EMSIS data collection system hasbeen rolled-out in Oakland County. It is our goal to provide OCMCA agencies with the smoothest transition possible into the MI-EMSIS data collection system. The website for the web-based system can be found at: www.mi-emsis.org.

Data Elements-NEW UPDATE

Required Data Elements for the OCMCA will be concurrent with the NHTSA Version 2.2.1 Dataset. To export into MI-EMSIS data system, it will be required that your agency submit all data that is consider “gold-compliant” data. This will ensure that the OCMCA will have access to a clear, understandable, and complete patient care record. If you are unaware of what it means to be “gold-compliant” you can learn more at: http://www.nemsis.org/index.html

EMS Acknowledgements

In March, 2007 we began an EMS Acknowledgement program. Hospitals and agencies were given forms that would enable them to quickly out and recognize a responder(s) for their achievements. The response to our office has been excellent. It has been our pleasure to recognize the following individuals for excellence in achievement:

If you would like to submit a responder for recognition through our office, please download a form from the Forms link under the QI Information tab on our home page.
