A method for the geographical evaluation of emergency medical service performance

  • Mayer, J.D.

Abstract

Emergency Medical Service (EMS) evaluation is usually conducted on an aggregated, system-wide basis, despite the fact that there is substantial geographical variation in EMS performance. This paper suggests a method for the identification and analysis of geographically disaggregated EMS performance, using Seattle's Medic I program as an example.
