Excerpt from the American College of Emergency Physicians
regarding Medical Control of Prehospital Emergency Medical
Services:
“The American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP)
believes that all aspects of the organization and provision
of basic (including first responder) and advanced life
support emergency medical services (EMS)
require the active involvement and participation of
physicians. ACEP also believes that
EMS must have an identifiable physician medical director at
the local, regional, and state level.
The primary role of the medical director is to ensure
quality patient care.
Responsibilities include involvement
with the ongoing design, operation, evaluation and revision
of the EMS system from initial patient access to definitive
patient care.
Each EMS system should ensure that the medical director has
authority over patient care,
authority to limit immediately the patient care activities
of those who deviate from established standards or
do not meet training standards, and the responsibility and
authority to develop and implement medical policies
and
procedures. The EMS medical director's qualifications,
responsibilities, and authority must be delineated in
writing within each EMS system. Ideally, the EMS medical
director will be a board-certified emergency physician.
The EMS system has an obligation to provide the EMS medical
director with the resources, authority,
and compensation commensurate with these responsibilities.”
