Poison Control Interoperability Pilot
Description
Currently, the state Poison Control center is not connected electronically to any other databases. In this pilot, we will work with Poison Control and two Emergency Departments (EDs) to transmit pre-hospital information from the Poison Control center to the receiving ED. In later phases of the project, we will also help the EDs transmit discharge information on patients referred from Poison Control back to the Poison Control database. We are also working with the Utah Department of Health (UDoH) so that they can receive a feed from Poison Control that will integrate into their environmental poisoning surveillance system.
