Hospital emergency departments (EDs) across the country are struggling with limited capacity and more complex cases, leading to longer wait times and gridlock as patients wait for inpatient beds. Advanced data analytics can help hospitals anticipate patient needs and identify community trends, but these tools are most powerful when they incorporate relevant data from outside the hospital’s walls. This ImageTrend spotlight series explores how integrating data from emergency medical services (EMS) into hospital systems can improve patient flow and support clinicians in delivering high-quality care where and when it’s needed most.


Learn how:

  • EMS data can help hospitals better manage capacity and patient surges
  • Healthcare organizations can use EMS data to inform and improve care decisions
  • Increasing data interoperability between hospitals and EMS can support better patient outcomes
