National EMS Documentation Survey

Last Updated: October 25, 2024

Recently, PWW Advisory Group (PWW|AG) announced their National EMS Documentation Survey, which will identify attitudes, challenges and issues inherent in documenting EMS patient interactions.

EMS leaders have consistently identified high quality clinical and operational documentation as one of their organizations’ most persistent challenges. The National EMS Documentation Survey may be completed by any individual with a role in EMS, including EMS practitioners, medical directors, EMS leaders, managers and executives, EMS billing and revenue cycle management professionals, and others.

The survey will measure critical issues such as:

  • EMS provider and leadership attitudes toward patient care report (PCR) documentation;
  • Comfort with and ease of use of EMS PCR technology;
  • Sufficiency of time allocated to PCR documentation;
  • Need for training and education on EMS documentation issues;

We encourage Virginia’s EMS providers to participate in the survey, which is estimated to take 10-15 minutes to complete. The results will help provide insight and research into improving EMS patient care reporting documentation and will help provide the tools and support that EMS professionals need to produce high-quality documentation.
