            <comment><br/>The use of acuity values vary by EMS agency. Some systems may utilize fewer than four levels and some more. The use of four levels is to capture the majority and allow for the inclusion of the NHTSA National EMS Core Content definitions for patient acuity, specifically: Critical, Emergent, and Lower Acuity. <br/> <br/><span style="color:red">Provided below is an example application only. This example bears no relationship to any particular federal, state, or agency billing requirement. </span> <br/> <br/>For EMS Agencies and CAD / EMD systems utilizing Alpha-Echo, Omega levels for determining the priority level for dispatch of the EMS unit, the recommended mapping is: <br/> <table cellpadding="2px" cellspacing="0px" border="1px"> <tr> <td>Echo = Critical</td><td>Charlie = Emergent</td><td>Alpha = Lower Acuity</td> </tr><tr> <td>Delta = Critical</td><td>Bravo = Emergent</td><td>Omega = Non-Acute</td> </tr></table> <br/>Patient Acuity definitions related to "Critical, Emergent, and Lower Acuity" can be found in the National EMS Core Content document from NHTSA EMS (DOT HS 809-898 July 2005) at http://www.nhtsa.gov/people/injury/ems/emscorecontent/images/EMSCoreContent.pdf <br/> <br/>For Air Medical Transports the most appropriate values choices should be limited to two: Emergent and Non-Acute.</comment>

This information will not be known to the EMS professional. <br/><br/> Use Case: Some CAD systems may use the Unit Dispatched CAD Record ID as the Patient Care Report Number (eRecord.01). This may also be a GUID from a CAD system. A GUID for the CAD push to remain unique as updates are sent from CAD. This could be a stream and unique to the record or patient depending on the capabilities of the CAD system. How the Unit Dispatched CAD Record ID is created could vary as it could be a concatenation of multiple elements or a true GUID.</comment>
