BIO-key Solution Receives Gold Seal of Compliance
BIO-key International Inc., a leader in wireless public safety solutions and finger based biometric identification, has been awarded the Gold Level Compliance Certification for its FireRMS software application by the National Emergency Medical Services Information System (NEMSIS).
The certification process was developed to help states collect more standardized elements and eventually submit the data to a national EMS database. Gold Level Compliance ensures that BIO-key FireRMS software conforms to the NEMSIS national EMS dataset. The NHTSA Version 2.2.1 data elements required for compliance include over 400 data elements which are vital components needed for the documentation and description of EMS systems and patient care. Achieving Gold Level Compliance demonstrates the value BIO- key places on its commitment to create integrated and interoperable solutions for Fire and EMS Services and other first responder agencies.
“We are pleased that our state of the art solution for EMS professionals meets national standards,” stated Anthony Barone, BIO-key Vice-President and General Manager of Fire Safety Business Unit. “By satisfying NEMSIS requirements, all agencies using our FireRMS software now have the capability to generate reports that meet these national requirements.”
