NEMSIS Is Looking For Your Comments

WASHINGTON (August 30, 2010): The National EMS Information System (NEMSIS) has established another wiki and we need your help! The NEMSIS Technical Assistance Center (TAC) is asking for your help to determine which of the NEMSIS data elements should be part the National dataset and state-level datasets.

We have proposed a list of elements both the National and state-level datasets for your comments. Elements considered "national" will be "required" for all state datasets. For elements considered "state-level," we will "request" that states consider these elements for inclusion in their state-level datasets.

This is your chance to provide comment regarding what data should be collected for national and state purposes. We have posted a NEMSIS wiki to collect your comments.

The wiki can be accessed here.

The comment period will be open until September 15th, 2010, and comments will only be accepted via the wiki.

Questions about NEMSIS can be sent to Greg Mears or Clay Mann.
