Primary Electronic Health Record System
### No Single Statewide Patient Portal for NYS EMS Records Based on the available information, the New York State Department of Health (NYS DOH) Bureau of Emergency Medical Services and Trauma Systems (BEMS) utilizes a system called the **New York State EMS State Bridge** for the collection, analysis, and reporting of pre-hospital care data from EMS agencies across the state. This system is provided by **ImageTrend**. It's important to note that the NYS EMS State Bridge is primarily a data aggregation and reporting tool for the state and individual EMS agencies. It does not function as a centralized patient portal allowing individuals to access their complete EMS records from all EMS providers statewide in the way that a system like MyChart does for patients of healthcare systems using Epic. While New York State law grants patients the right to access their health records, including EMS records, the process for obtaining these records typically involves requesting them directly from the individual EMS agency that provided the care. For EMS services specifically within New York City, the Fire Department of New York (FDNY) EMS uses a portal called **myPatientEncounters** for individuals to request non-certified copies of their Pre-Hospital Care Reports. This portal is associated with **Sansio**, based on the email address provided in the access instructions for myPatientEncounters. However, this is specific to FDNY EMS and not a statewide portal for all of New York State. In summary, there is no single patient portal vendor or branding used by "EHR Emergency Medical Services (health.ny.gov)" that provides a unified point of access for patients to their EMS records across the entire state. The state's primary system for collecting EMS data from providers is the ImageTrend-powered NYS EMS State Bridge, while patient access to records is managed at the local EMS agency level, with a specific portal available for NYC EMS records.
