The continuum of care is now a reality. ESO Hospital Data Exchange (HDE) is a revolutionary Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) communication method that is redefining the way EMS and hospitals collaborate on patient care, helping organizations of all shapes and sizes communicate in a whole new way.
Any ePCR – Any EMR
ESO HDE is simple and flexible. Any EMS or hospital system that connects to the HDE platform can instantly collaborate with any other agency or hospital worldwide that uses ESO HDE—with no additional setup required.
Using the NEMSIS data standard, ESO HDE is able to take data from any electronic patient care reporting (ePCR) platform your agency uses. Likewise, ESO HDE can send and receive data to and from the hospital electronic medical record (EMR) in a range of industry standard formats such as NEMSIS XML and HL7.
A Win/Win for Hospitals and EMS
With ESO HDE, hospitals now can view the EMS patient care record from directly within their EMR. In addition, they now have access to the raw EMS data they need to report to registries (trauma, STEMI, stroke etc.), trend patient populations and develop metrics.
EMS, in turn, now has access to valuable outcome information and patient demographic data. With the ability to quantify the quality of care on 100% of their patients, EMS agencies can finally institute comprehensive quality management programs based on clinical outcomes. What’s more, ESO HDE greatly increases billing performance by leveraging hospitals’ efficient billing processes and detailed billing information.
Real-Time Access to Patient Information
As the concept of Health Information Exchange (HIE) becomes a reality, there is an increased need for EMS’ participation. ESO HDE enables EMS to exchange critical data with the HIE, giving you real-time access to patient information from all areas of the health care system.
After the initial connection is complete, ESO does the rest. ESO’s PaaS data bus is capable of transforming patient data into a format that can be accepted by the intended recipient in real time. The difficult work of translating different data types between connections is a thing of the past.
No matter what ePCR or EMR system your organization uses, ESO HDE will take your organization to the next level.
