SUMMARY:Helicopter EMS Utilization & Performance Task Force – Kickoff Meeting
DESCRIPTION:NCRETAC Helicopter EMS Utilization & Performance Task Force – Kickoff Meeting \nThe NCRETAC Board\, through the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee\, is convening a Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force to bring together regional partners interested in strengthening shared understanding of how air medical resources are requested and used across our system. Many of you participated in early conversations on this topic last year\, and this group provides an opportunity to continue that dialogue in a collaborative setting focused on clinical perspective\, operational realities\, and data-informed system learning. The intent is not to prescribe a single approach\, but to explore whether there are opportunities to improve transparency\, shared understanding\, and performance visibility for the benefit of patients and the regional EMS system. \nAgenda \nWelcome and Introductions \nBrief introductions and acknowledgment of the preliminary regional discussions that took place last year regarding helicopter EMS utilization. \nPurpose and Charter Overview \nOverview of the Task Force charter\, including purpose\, objectives\, scope of work\, reporting structure under the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee\, and expected deliverables. \nRegional Perspective Discussion \nOpen discussion to share perspectives on how helicopter EMS is currently utilized across the region\, including what is working well\, where variability or uncertainty may exist\, and insights from EMS agencies\, dispatch centers\, trauma partners\, and air medical programs. \nData and Information Landscape \nDiscussion of current data sources and visibility related to helicopter requests\, launches\, cancellations\, destinations\, and outcomes\, as well as potential gaps that may limit regional understanding of system performance. \nPotential Areas of Task Force Work \nIf there is interest and perceived value\, the Task Force could explore development of practical tools to support regional understanding and system improvement\, such as: \n  *   A simple HEMS utilization framework describing clinical need\, operational context\, and system performance considerations \n  *   A regional HEMS performance dashboard highlighting utilization patterns\, operational performance\, and clinical context indicators \n  *   A HEMS request taxonomy to improve consistency in documenting why aircraft are requested \n  *   A regional HEMS utilization map illustrating request locations\, destination hospitals\, and geographic access to care \n  *   A decision-support matrix describing factors commonly considered when requesting helicopter transport \nThese would be optional work products developed collaboratively if the Task Force believes they would be useful. \nNext Steps and Participation \nDiscussion of meeting cadence\, additional perspectives that may be helpful to include\, and opportunities for participants to share information or materials that could inform the Task Force’s work. \nClosing Reflections \n________________________________Microsoft Teams meetingJoin: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/26140065039867?p=XLlI504nab05zGvQKmMeeting ID: 261 400 650 398 67Passcode: vq6AX3tt \n________________________________NCRETAC Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force Charter________________________________Purpose \nThe Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force is established by the Northeast Colorado Regional EMS and Trauma Advisory Council (NCRETAC) to evaluate and improve the clinical utilization\, request processes\, data visibility\, and performance monitoring of helicopter EMS (HEMS) services across the region. \nThis task force will support consistent\, clinically appropriate\, and data-informed use of air medical resources in alignment with patient needs\, geographic realities\, and system capacity. The task force will provide a collaborative forum for EMS agencies\, medical directors\, dispatch partners\, trauma system stakeholders\, and air medical programs to develop a shared understanding of regional HEMS utilization and identify opportunities for system improvement. \n________________________________Scope of Work \nThe task force will focus on the following key areas: \n  *   Evaluating current HEMS utilization patterns across the region \n  *   Reviewing request and activation processes\, including clinical indications\, decision pathways\, and interagency coordination \n  *   Assessing available tracking mechanisms and data sources related to HEMS requests\, responses\, cancellations\, and outcomes \nSpecific tasks include\, but are not limited to: \n  *   Reviewing regional policies\, guidelines\, and informal practices related to HEMS activation \n  *   Examining variability in utilization and request processes across agencies or operational settings \n  *   Identifying gaps in data availability\, data quality\, or performance reporting \n  *   Developing recommendations to improve clinical decision support\, documentation\, tracking\, and performance monitoring \n  *   Promoting consistency\, transparency\, and shared understanding of best practices for helicopter EMS utilization \nIf there is interest and perceived value among participants\, the task force may also explore development of practical tools to support regional understanding and system improvement\, such as: \n  *   A simple HEMS utilization framework describing clinical need\, operational context\, and system performance considerations \n  *   A regional HEMS performance dashboard highlighting utilization patterns and operational indicators \n  *   A HEMS request taxonomy to improve consistency in documenting the primary drivers of helicopter requests \n  *   A regional HEMS utilization map illustrating request locations\, transport destinations\, and geographic access to care \n  *   A decision-support matrix describing common clinical and operational factors considered when requesting helicopter transport \n________________________________Authority \nThe task force is authorized by the NCRETAC Board of Directors through the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee to carry out its duties as outlined in this charter. \nThe task force shall make recommendations to the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee regarding its focus areas and proposed improvements to regional practice\, data tracking\, or system performance monitoring.

SUMMARY:NCRETAC HEMS Utilization & Performance Task Force
DESCRIPTION:NCRETAC HEMS Utilization & Performance Task Force — Meeting 3 Tuesday\, May 13\, 2026 | 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM | Microsoft Teams \nEXECUTIVE SUMMARY \nThis task force was formed by the NCRETAC Board of Directors in early 2026 following a regional trauma case that raised questions about whether the system for requesting and deploying HEMS in northeastern Colorado is operating as efficiently as it should. The Board charged the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee with examining the problem and developing practical regional guidance. \nTwo meetings have been held to date. Introductions and case review occurred in Meeting 1 (March 24\, 36 attendees). Meeting 2 (April 29\, 35 attendees) produced substantive discussion through a scenario exercise and presentation of survey results. A regional survey collected 43 responses from 24 unique agencies across 9 counties. The central finding: EMS agencies — the primary users of HEMS — rate the process at 6.2 out of 10. HEMS providers rate it at 9.5. That gap is the problem this task force exists to close. \nMeeting 3 (May 13\, 2026) will confirm the task force’s working objectives\, introduce a draft HEMS request criteria framework for regional discussion\, and formally accept data reporting commitments from HEMS providers. The literature review distributed in advance of Meeting 2 — and summarized in Section 3 of this read-ahead — provides the evidence foundation for that framework. This document contains everything a member needs to participate productively in Meeting 3. \nThe read-ahead documents are available here. Please read ahead and contact Nick Nudell at nick@ncretac.org if there are questions before the meeting:[https://res-2.df.onecdn.static.microsoft/files/fabric-cdn-prod_20251010.003/assets/item-types/16/docx.svg]HEMS_ReadAhead_May13_2026_v2.docx[https://res-2.df.onecdn.static.microsoft/files/fabric-cdn-prod_20251010.003/assets/item-types/16/docx.svg]HEMS_RequestCriteria_NCRETAC_DRAFT_v1.docx[https://res-2.df.onecdn.static.microsoft/files/fabric-cdn-prod_20251010.003/assets/item-types/16/pptx.svg]NCRETAC_HEMS_Survey_Results.pptx________________________________ \nAGENDA \n10:00 — Call to Order and Housekeeping (5 min — Jennifer Landis) Chair opens. Meeting conduct guidelines are in effect. Logistics: recording consent\, using the hand-raise function in Teams\, 2–3 minute comment limit per person. \n10:05 — Survey Results Overview (10 min — Nick Nudell) Final survey dataset: 43 responses\, 24 unique agencies\, 9 counties. Key findings include the efficiency gap between EMS agency and HEMS provider ratings\, communication and coordination issues\, activation process variability\, and liftoff time data gaps. Members who have not reviewed the survey results deck should do so before the meeting (available on the NCRETAC shared drive). \n10:15 — Confirm Task Force Objectives (5 min — Jennifer Landis) Six proposed objectives will be presented. Group is asked to confirm\, amend\, or add. These objectives will anchor the work plan and inform any grant application submitted by mid-June. \n10:20 — Draft Criteria Framework: First Discussion (20 min — Nick Nudell) Overview of the HEMS Request Criteria draft (attached). Discussion is directional — three questions only: (1) Do the 7 domains reflect how activation decisions are actually made in your area? (2) Are the No-Fly Zone thresholds appropriate for the NCRETAC region? (3) What is the most important gap to address before the group works through the document in detail? \n10:45 — Data and Provider Reporting (10 min — Nick Nudell) Formally accept Flight For Life’s offer of quarterly liftoff time data. All HEMS programs are invited to commit to the same. First submission deadline to be set. Top themes from thematic analysis of open-response survey data. \n10:50 — Next Steps and Close (5 min — Jennifer Landis) Agreed actions\, owners\, and due dates. Confirm next meeting. Adjourn by 11:00 AM. \n________________________________ \nRead-ahead package and draft criteria document are attached. Please review both before the meeting. \nQuestions: Jennifer Landis — Jennifer.Landis@bannerhealth.com | Nick Nudell — Nick@ncretac.org | 970-580-2668 \n________________________________________________________________________________Microsoft Teams meetingJoin: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/238452471742104?p=ftHD1J2qwkPZMd9LnWMeeting ID: 238 452 471 742 104Passcode: ks3NB2ct________________________________Need help? | System referenceDial in by phone+1 323-694-0365\,\,83590527# United States\, Los AngelesFind a local numberPhone conference ID: 835 905 27#For organizers: Meeting options | Reset dial-in PIN[Company Logo]The mission of the NCRETAC is to enhance coordination and collaboration among hospital and prehospital providers\, support all emergency medical and trauma services organizations within our region\, and promote equitable patient care through access to safety\, education\, and resources.Org help | Privacy and security________________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY:Helicopter EMS Utilization & Performance Task Force – Kickoff Meeting
DESCRIPTION:NCRETAC Helicopter EMS Utilization & Performance Task Force – Kickoff Meeting \nThe NCRETAC Board\, through the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee\, is convening a Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force to bring together regional partners interested in strengthening shared understanding of how air medical resources are requested and used across our system. Many of you participated in early conversations on this topic last year\, and this group provides an opportunity to continue that dialogue in a collaborative setting focused on clinical perspective\, operational realities\, and data-informed system learning. The intent is not to prescribe a single approach\, but to explore whether there are opportunities to improve transparency\, shared understanding\, and performance visibility for the benefit of patients and the regional EMS system. \nAgenda \nWelcome and Introductions \nBrief introductions and acknowledgment of the preliminary regional discussions that took place last year regarding helicopter EMS utilization. \nPurpose and Charter Overview \nOverview of the Task Force charter\, including purpose\, objectives\, scope of work\, reporting structure under the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee\, and expected deliverables. \nRegional Perspective Discussion \nOpen discussion to share perspectives on how helicopter EMS is currently utilized across the region\, including what is working well\, where variability or uncertainty may exist\, and insights from EMS agencies\, dispatch centers\, trauma partners\, and air medical programs. \nData and Information Landscape \nDiscussion of current data sources and visibility related to helicopter requests\, launches\, cancellations\, destinations\, and outcomes\, as well as potential gaps that may limit regional understanding of system performance. \nPotential Areas of Task Force Work \nIf there is interest and perceived value\, the Task Force could explore development of practical tools to support regional understanding and system improvement\, such as: \n  *   A simple HEMS utilization framework describing clinical need\, operational context\, and system performance considerations \n  *   A regional HEMS performance dashboard highlighting utilization patterns\, operational performance\, and clinical context indicators \n  *   A HEMS request taxonomy to improve consistency in documenting why aircraft are requested \n  *   A regional HEMS utilization map illustrating request locations\, destination hospitals\, and geographic access to care \n  *   A decision-support matrix describing factors commonly considered when requesting helicopter transport \nThese would be optional work products developed collaboratively if the Task Force believes they would be useful. \nNext Steps and Participation \nDiscussion of meeting cadence\, additional perspectives that may be helpful to include\, and opportunities for participants to share information or materials that could inform the Task Force’s work. \nClosing Reflections \n________________________________Microsoft Teams meetingJoin: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/26140065039867?p=XLlI504nab05zGvQKmMeeting ID: 261 400 650 398 67Passcode: vq6AX3tt \n________________________________NCRETAC Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force Charter________________________________Purpose \nThe Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force is established by the Northeast Colorado Regional EMS and Trauma Advisory Council (NCRETAC) to evaluate and improve the clinical utilization\, request processes\, data visibility\, and performance monitoring of helicopter EMS (HEMS) services across the region. \nThis task force will support consistent\, clinically appropriate\, and data-informed use of air medical resources in alignment with patient needs\, geographic realities\, and system capacity. The task force will provide a collaborative forum for EMS agencies\, medical directors\, dispatch partners\, trauma system stakeholders\, and air medical programs to develop a shared understanding of regional HEMS utilization and identify opportunities for system improvement. \n________________________________Scope of Work \nThe task force will focus on the following key areas: \n  *   Evaluating current HEMS utilization patterns across the region \n  *   Reviewing request and activation processes\, including clinical indications\, decision pathways\, and interagency coordination \n  *   Assessing available tracking mechanisms and data sources related to HEMS requests\, responses\, cancellations\, and outcomes \nSpecific tasks include\, but are not limited to: \n  *   Reviewing regional policies\, guidelines\, and informal practices related to HEMS activation \n  *   Examining variability in utilization and request processes across agencies or operational settings \n  *   Identifying gaps in data availability\, data quality\, or performance reporting \n  *   Developing recommendations to improve clinical decision support\, documentation\, tracking\, and performance monitoring \n  *   Promoting consistency\, transparency\, and shared understanding of best practices for helicopter EMS utilization \nIf there is interest and perceived value among participants\, the task force may also explore development of practical tools to support regional understanding and system improvement\, such as: \n  *   A simple HEMS utilization framework describing clinical need\, operational context\, and system performance considerations \n  *   A regional HEMS performance dashboard highlighting utilization patterns and operational indicators \n  *   A HEMS request taxonomy to improve consistency in documenting the primary drivers of helicopter requests \n  *   A regional HEMS utilization map illustrating request locations\, transport destinations\, and geographic access to care \n  *   A decision-support matrix describing common clinical and operational factors considered when requesting helicopter transport \n________________________________Authority \nThe task force is authorized by the NCRETAC Board of Directors through the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee to carry out its duties as outlined in this charter. \nThe task force shall make recommendations to the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee regarding its focus areas and proposed improvements to regional practice\, data tracking\, or system performance monitoring.

SUMMARY:Helicopter EMS Utilization & Performance Task Force – Kickoff Meeting
DESCRIPTION:NCRETAC Helicopter EMS Utilization & Performance Task Force – Kickoff Meeting \nThe NCRETAC Board\, through the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee\, is convening a Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force to bring together regional partners interested in strengthening shared understanding of how air medical resources are requested and used across our system. Many of you participated in early conversations on this topic last year\, and this group provides an opportunity to continue that dialogue in a collaborative setting focused on clinical perspective\, operational realities\, and data-informed system learning. The intent is not to prescribe a single approach\, but to explore whether there are opportunities to improve transparency\, shared understanding\, and performance visibility for the benefit of patients and the regional EMS system. \nAgenda \nWelcome and Introductions \nBrief introductions and acknowledgment of the preliminary regional discussions that took place last year regarding helicopter EMS utilization. \nPurpose and Charter Overview \nOverview of the Task Force charter\, including purpose\, objectives\, scope of work\, reporting structure under the Clinical and Professional Standards Committee\, and expected deliverables. \nRegional Perspective Discussion \nOpen discussion to share perspectives on how helicopter EMS is currently utilized across the region\, including what is working well\, where variability or uncertainty may exist\, and insights from EMS agencies\, dispatch centers\, trauma partners\, and air medical programs. \nData and Information Landscape \nDiscussion of current data sources and visibility related to helicopter requests\, launches\, cancellations\, destinations\, and outcomes\, as well as potential gaps that may limit regional understanding of system performance. \nPotential Areas of Task Force Work \nIf there is interest and perceived value\, the Task Force could explore development of practical tools to support regional understanding and system improvement\, such as: \n  *   A simple HEMS utilization framework describing clinical need\, operational context\, and system performance considerations \n  *   A regional HEMS performance dashboard highlighting utilization patterns\, operational performance\, and clinical context indicators \n  *   A HEMS request taxonomy to improve consistency in documenting why aircraft are requested \n  *   A regional HEMS utilization map illustrating request locations\, destination hospitals\, and geographic access to care \n  *   A decision-support matrix describing factors commonly considered when requesting helicopter transport \nThese would be optional work products developed collaboratively if the Task Force believes they would be useful. \nNext Steps and Participation \nDiscussion of meeting cadence\, additional perspectives that may be helpful to include\, and opportunities for participants to share information or materials that could inform the Task Force’s work. \nClosing Reflections \n________________________________Microsoft Teams meetingJoin: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/26140065039867?p=XLlI504nab05zGvQKmMeeting ID: 261 400 650 398 67Passcode: vq6AX3tt \n________________________________NCRETAC Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force Charter________________________________Purpose \nThe Helicopter EMS Utilization and Performance Task Force is established by the Northeast Colorado Regional EMS and Trauma Advisory Council (NCRETAC) to evaluate and improve the clinical utilization\, request processes\, data visibility\, and performance monitoring of helicopter EMS (HEMS) services across the region. \nThis task force will support consistent\, clinically appropriate\, and data-informed use of air medical resources in alignment with patient needs\, geographic realities\, and system capacity.
