Pre-Hospital Insight Like Never Before.
HDE provides true bidirectional data sharing – the EMS record flows directly into the hospital EHR, and hospital clinical outcome information is available to EMS in real time. Data can be shared from or with any EHR or major hospital EMR system in an agnostic “connect once, connect to all” model
Real Time Data for Real Time Care.
There’s no time to wait in the ED for paper faxes to arrive when it comes to STEMI, stroke and other time sensitive cases. HDE delivers the ePCR directly into your EHR or EMR so you can quickly identify pre-hospital medications, conditions present and other patient info — all in real time.
Get Smart with EMS Insight.
Do you know your volume by service line? Or which EMS agencies have the highest percentage of drop-offs to your ED? Uncover the analytics that can help you improve operations, identify trends over time and develop stronger relationships with your local EMS agencies by sharing outcome data.
Be Prepared for Quality Reviews & Accreditations

There is no hardware or software to install at the facility or EMS agencies. Most connections and data extracts can be accomplished with existing resources within the participating entities.
ESO contracts with Microsoft Azure to provide secure Tier 1 data storage services.
Because HDE connects unrelated systems, HDE support is a team effort coordinated by the ESO team. ESO’s integration tools monitor the traffic through each connection. If an issue is detected, ESO support personnel work with the appropriate technical resources to resolve the issue.
Yes, ESO offers true bi-directional data sharing between various electronic health record systems. Initially designed to connect EMS and hospitals, HDE is capable of connecting referring facilities, transitional care, MIH providers, public health and more.
Once connected, hospitals can connect with EMS runsheet to the facility EHR. This allows clinicians and data abstractors easy access to the EMS record. ESO also offers Patient Tracker.
