What is the Prehospital Medical Information System?
PreMIS is a state mandated internet based EMS information system. Currently implemented in North Carolina, the system is in use by over 700 NC EMS agencies, 30,000 technicians and maintains an estimated 1,000,000 records per year. The PreMIS system provides a data entry and reporting capability for the evaluation of EMS patient care and system performance. PreMIS functions as an electronic medical record for Emergency Medical Services. Data collected and maintained within PreMIS provides valuable insight to identify, evaluate, and drive local and state EMS initiatives in areas such as education, operations, disaster planning, resource allocation, advocacy, policy, and finance.
