This version of the State EMS Forms was posted on this site on 5/28/2009, and revised by the state on ----- .

The State of Oregon has engaged in two projects for 2008 in the development of their statewide prehospital data system. Per the 2009 Oregon Traffic Safety Performance Plan, "Both national and state advisory bodies have stressed the importance of pre-hospital data collection, and noted that Oregon’s lack of a pre-hospital data system is a barrier to both quality improvement and systems development activities. This pilot project will use Image Trend software for rural ambulance service data tracking and conforms to NEMSIS data guidelines."

EMS Statewide Data Collection for May, 2008

The EMS & Trauma Systems Program (EMS/TS) requested information on each Prehospital Care Report for all EMS agencies for the month of May. We thank you for your data, which we are now analyzing as part of designing a web-based EMS patient encounter data collection system.

If your agency has not yet submitted data, please do so as follows.

a. If you use a database which meets the NEMSIS 2.2.1 standard, you may submit an XML export.
b. You may submit a spreadsheet containing these datapoints (2008datapoints.xls )
c. You may duplicate all of the EMS Patient Care Report forms and mail them to our office.
Please identify any costs or barriers associated with complying with this request. Costs and barriers might include the following:
a. Duplication and postage costs.
b. Difficulties in preparing a spreadsheet.
c. Time involved in preparing the information.
If your EMS agency is not able to provide the requested data, please
a. Identify the specific reasons that you are not able to provide the requested data.
b. Identify the number of EMS patient encounters during May 2008.

Twelve-month Pilot PCR Project:

EMS/TS and the Oregon Office of Rural Health Policy (ORHP) are partnering in a one-year demonstration project to provide an electronic prehospital data collection system to rural EMS agencies. This project will run through at least June 30, 2009.
