EMS - Emergency Medical Service System
EMS Main Menu
EMS is an on line, automated data management system for Emergency Medical Agencies. EMS can stand alone, or work in conjunction with other CISCO software. Like all CISCO software, EMS is built with a modular design with easy to use menus. The system design is flexible enough to meet the data storage and report needs of all fire and rescue agencies. User defined code tables allow each agency to customize data entry.
The EMS system manages information about services rendered to persons by EMS agencies. Beginning with the Calls for Service module, all data pertinent to the incident and resulting services provided is captured. The Billing system utilizes information gathered from the EMS modules to calculate and bill for these services.
