Patient Pre-Admissions Can Begin with EMS

EMS scans the patient’s driver’s license, and the check-in process is already in motion.

Backline allows Emergency Medical Responders to obtain a patient’s medication history on the scene simply by scanning their driver’s license to quickly aid clinical decision making on the scene. Critical patient medication and treatment information can be securely shared with the receiving facility even before the patient arrives.

The receiving facility can then use that data to:

Pre-register

Pre-register a patient for treatment

Alert-Especiality

Alert specialty teams as needed

Streamline

Streamline the patient arrival process

Once the barcode on the back of a patient's driver’s license is scanned with a mobile device camera, Backline can provide a patient medication list within seconds to the clinician and/or medical team.

Note: If there is no license or state ID to scan, the patient demographics can be entered manually and still produce a medication list.

Using Backline for EMS provides:

Medication

Accurate patient medication
data at the point of care
within seconds

Fewer-delays

patient registration
and care

Patient-outcomes
