HIE Sustainability and EMS: How your HIE can facilitate exchange of Pre-Hospital Data Overview

November 7, 2024, 12pm-1pm 

Join us for an engaging webinar hosted by San Diego Health Connect, where we’ll explore the critical role that Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) can play in facilitating the exchange of pre-hospital data from Emergency Medical Services (EMS) providers, and how this can drive both operational improvements and long-term HIE sustainability. Pre-hospital data is a vital part of the patient care continuum, yet data-sharing between EMS agencies and healthcare providers is often fragmented. In this session, we’ll demonstrate how your HIE can close this gap by enabling seamless data exchange from EMS to hospitals, ultimately enhancing care coordination, improving patient outcomes, and ensuring HIE sustainability. Additionally, San Diego Health Connect (SDHC) will showcase how we can offer this capability to other HIEs through our hosted solution, which supports efficient EMS data integration, allowing HIEs of any size to leverage our infrastructure to seamlessly exchange pre-hospital data and reduce the complexity of local system integration.

Key Topics:

~The critical role of integrating pre-hospital EMS data into broader healthcare ecosystems via HIEs.

~How HIEs can facilitate real-time data exchange between EMS providers and emergency departments.

~Best practices for building effective partnerships between EMS agencies, hospitals, and HIEs.

~Strategies for ensuring HIE sustainability by incorporating pre-hospital data exchange.

~Case studies from leading HIEs that have successfully implemented EMS data-sharing capabilities.

~How SDHC’s hosted solution can help other HIEs integrate pre-hospital EMS data into their exchange networks, leveraging SDHC’s established infrastructure to minimize technical barriers.
