InterAct EMS

Solutions for Emergency Medical Teams

When responding to medical emergencies, accessing all right information can mean the difference between life and death. Yet in reality, providing critical knowledge to EMTs is a huge challenge. Many agencies lack integration across agencies such as fire, law enforcement, and EMS services. And worse, it's often impossible for EMTs to keep track of which hospitals are accepting patients.

InterAct Public Safety software connects key agencies—bringing critical information sharing to emergency responders. EMTs receive instantaneous updates as they're en route to provide medical assistance—helping them make the most informed decisions. Firemen, police officers, EMTs and others can quickly relay updates from mobile devices to all involved parties so everyone stays informed. With this highly functional software, dispatchers have up-to-the-minute intelligence about the incident, individuals involved, hospital status, and more.

Tightly integrated with ProQA, InterAct's computer aided dispatch system supports call handling protocols and pre-call questions to swiftly guide dispatchers through incident management. By linking the entire incident management lifecycle, InterAct prevents information gaps and hazardous delays in response times.

InterActEMS

InterActEMS is a robust, enterprise-class, fully integrated system of modules that offer complete management of fire prevention, suppression, and EMS patient information. InterActEMS modules can be used separately, but are all tightly integrated with each other.

System-wide Features:

  • Security - Users are placed into groups based on their "rights" level. Access and control of data can be managed by "security profiles" that are attributed to individual users or groups based on personnel classifications.
  • GEO-verification provides the ability to substantiate an address against the city or county's master address segment file. Doing so ensures that any addresses entered in the InterActEMS system exactly match the numbers and characters of the authoritative database of street segments, cross streets, etc. Geo-verifying is a quick step to verify an entered address or location is consistent with those already stored in the system.
  • Master Names, Master Locations and Master Organizations are the backbone of an efficient e-PCR or EMS system. InterAct's comprehensive Master Indices include custom-built Master Name and Master Location databases that are accessible throughout the system. These modules provide "master" databases to store and use names and addresses with consistency and accuracy. Master Organizations allows you to build a database of commonly used vendors or other businesses.
  • Mobile solution - InterActEMS offers a full desktop in the field for easy portability. InterActEMS synchronizes data from multiple laptops so that all users access the most current data.
  • E-Signature - InterActEMS provides the ability to have a legally binding (per the e-sign bill signed into law in 1997) signature on any of the InterActEMS "inline" reports. This can be done on reports generated by the InterActEMS software.
  • True attachments - File attachments in the InterActEMS system are stored so that the data is secure and will remain a permanent part of that particular report.
  • NEMSIS Gold Certified

InterActEMS Field Based Reporting

The most robust field-based reporting in the industry, the InterActEMS mobile reporting system give you the same applications in the field as it does on the desktop. With InterActEMSfbr on a Windows® Tablet, EMS professionals have access to a fully functional version of InterActEMS in the field and use it just as if they were in the station connected to the network.

InterActEMSfbr automatically synchronizes the multiple laptops with the server upon returning to the station so all users have access the most current data - no user action is required.

  • CAD data transfer available in the field
  • Control your Tablet PC using a digital pen or using a virtual keyboard
  • Electronic Signature

Slate versus Convertible Tablets - Two Ways To Go:

 InterActEMSfbr  is available for Windows Tablet. Users can enter data by handwriting or typing on a virtual keyboard, with the unit resting comfortably on your arm. Tablets come in two major types: the slate and the convertible.

The slate does not include a physical keyboard, however most slates offer a docking station that includes a keyboard.

The convertible is much like a small laptop except that the display has a unique hinge that allows the display to be pivoted and laid down over the keyboard with the display facing up.

Patient Record Management and Billing for EMS

Simplifying emergency record information input, InterActEMS manages information on patients and the care that was provided to them by the personnel on the scene of an incident. InterActEMS can be used to record data about the patient, information on the location of the
incident and procedures performed on the patient.

State Customization

Some states require that certain data be collected for submission for data collection purposes. When a customer requires this kind of submission, the fields of reporting may be set up prior to using VulcanEMS. If configuration changes are needed, InterAct can customize
those requirements for you.
