~A`'F°R"~F' EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Health and Safety Code, Division 2.5, Section 1797.254, requires the Emergency Medical.Services (EMS) Agency to submit an EMS Plan to the State EMS Authority and follow it withannual updates thereafter. Attached is the Los Angeles County 2013 Annual Update whichprovides the required information on the status of our system and the EMS Agency's progresstoward meeting long-range goals.
SYSTEM STATUS:
OLD BUSINESS
Communications:In 2013, the EMS Agency worked with the County Internal Services Department (ISD) to replaceoutdated radio equipment at several of the county's radio towers in order to improve our currentcommunication system.
Efforts to evaluate and address the capabilities of a 30-year old communications system anddetermine future needs continue. The EMS Agency is an active participant and voting memberof the governing body of the Los Angeles Regional Interoperable Communications System (~A-RICS) Board of Directors. LA-RIGS' mission is to provide the finest mission-criticalcommunication system with unwavering focus on the needs of the public safety professional,designed and built to serve law enforcement, fire service, and health service professionals (firstresponders) throughout Los Angeles County.
With over 80 public safety agencies and approximately 34,000 first-responders, andencompassing a sprawling terrain of over 4,060 square miles that approximately 10 millionpeople call home, the Los Angeles region seeks a modern interoperable public safetybroadband network that allows multiple agencies to respond to the widest possible variety ofemergencies. The LA-RIGS Authority (JPA) is proposing to deploy a 700 MHz public safetymobile broadband network across all of Los Angeles County, featuring almost 300 wireless 700MHz public safety broadband sites using new and existing infrastructure, fixed microwavebackhaul rings, and 100-miles of high-capacity fiber backbone. The network would enablecomputer-aided dispatch, rapid law-enforcement queries, real-time video streaming, medicaltelemetry and patient tracking, geographic information systems services for first responders,and many other broadband-specific applications.
The contract to design, install and implement the Los Angeles Regional InteroperableCommunication System (LA-RIGS) was awarded to Motorola. LA-RIGS is currently goingthrough the system design phase, and this phase may last upwards of a year. The design willutilize aUHF/700 MHz hybrid system.
ANNUAL UPDATE 2013(Fiscal Year 2012-2013}
LA-RIGS will support rapid, safe, effective public safety response during daily operations, andsupport faster, better-coordinated, large-scale responses to emergencies such as wildfires,earthquakes, or other disasters. The Los Angeles Region is designated as ahigh-threat areaby the Department of Homeland Security. The new system will mitigate this threat by providingmore efficient and effective emergency response.
On November 19, 2012, EMS completed the migration of all the Medical Channels at the remoteradio sites and County Operated Hospitals from wide band to narrow band. The channelpreviously called Med 9 is now called Med 10. The frequency pairs and CTCSS tone remain thesame. Additionally effective November 19, 2012 the Hospital Emergency Administrative Radio(HEAR) will be referred to as VMED28. This step was taken in order to comply with theAssociation of Public Safety Communication Officers (APCO}and the National Public SafetyTelecommunications Council (NPSTC} Standard Channel Nomenclature for the Public SafetyInteroperability Channels.
Currently pre hospital on-line medical control is provided by 20 acute care hospitals. Two (2) ofthese hospitals are operated by the Department of Health Services (DHS). Staff providing on-line medical control is employed by the hospitals under the direction of the Pre-hospital CareCoordinator (nurse) and a Medical Director (physician}. In calendar year 2012, the basehospitals handled 256,188 contacts. In addition to field medical control, the hospital staff is alsoresponsible for continuing medical education and quality assurance.
The communication equipment used for medical control is purchased, installed and maintainedby the participating hospitals. Except for a few exceptions all hospitals are assigned a primarycommunication channel and aback-up. In addition, hospitals provide a minimum of twotelephone lines to be used for paramedic access. Due to the Los Angeles topography somehospitals must maintain remote radio sites to provide communication to some outlying fieldunits. These remote sites are connected to the base hospital using leased lines, leased by thebase hospitals.
Los Angeles County maintains a network of high remote radio sites that are available to extendlocal hospital communication when necessary. The county's back haul circuits (i.e. fiber,microwave) interFaces with the hospital lease lines at local county buildings. The county remoteradio sites along with the circuits are maintained by the Los Angeles County Internal ServicesDepartment (ISD).
Data:In order to provide for expansion, facilitate information sharing, and enable implementation ofsystem wide performance improvement, a Homeland Security grant was obtained that hasallowed for expansion and refinement the Trauma and Emergency Medical Information System(TEMIS). As the result, our goal of joining all EMS databases has been partially met —theprovider, base hospital, and trauma center databases have been joined with full reportingcapabilities, and efforts to add the SRC and ASC databases continue. In addition, work withLancet has begun on a web-based solution that will streamline access and maintenance.
Challenges include reconciling duplicate and blank records, and accurately linking recordsthroughout the databases. While the sequence. number functions as the primary unique

ANNUAL UPDATE 2013(Fiscal Year 2012-2013)
identifier, probabilistic matching and manual review of records —which is very time-consuming —will also need to be utilized.
In addition, the EMS Agency continues working with individual providers to implement electronicdata collection. Los Angeles City Fire Department, which accounts for approximately 35percent of EMS responses, has significantly improved its ability to successfully submit data tothe EMS Agency. The following departments have implemented electronic patient care recordswith electronic data submission to the EMS Agency; Burbank Fire Department, Glendale FireDepartment, Monterey Park Fire Department, Pasadena Fire Department and San Marino FireDepartment.
Research:The Field Administration of Stroke Therapy-Magnesium Trial (FAST-MAG Study) that allowsparamedics to administer medication in the field to potential stroke victims came to a closeDecember 5, 2012 with the enrollment of the 1700th and final patient. It took 7 years, 10 monthsand 8 days from the first enrollment to the last. This study was the largest randomizedprehospital stroke study ever done and is a testament to the contribution to stroke andprehospital research by LA and Orange County, the 37 fire based EMS provider agencies and60 hospitals that participated. Although final analysis of the data is pending, early processresults, based on the first 1486 patients enrolled, show the median time to treatment is 49minutes. This is significantly less than traditional imaging studies which typically indicate thetime for treatment to be three to four hours.
NEW BUSINESS:
Director serves as President of the EMSAACDuring Fiscal Year 2012-13, EMS Agency Director Cathy Chidester, served as the President ofthe Emergency Medical Services Administrators Association of California (EMSAAC). EMSAACwas formed in 1992, establishing their mission To strengthen and promote local EmergencyMedical Services (EMS) systems to benefit the public. EMSAAC supports local EMSadministrators and ensures policy and legislative initiatives are consistent with the provision ofquality emergency medical services. During her tenure, Ms. Chidester was instrumental inleading the development of EMSAAC's newest Strategic Plan. Other accomplishments thatoccurred under her leadership included legislative reform and coordination of a productiveannual conference.
Sidewalk CPR:On June 4, 2013, thanks to a unique collaboration between the EMS Agency, the Los AngelesCounty Fire Department, and the American Heart Association, over 7,000 residents of LosAngeles County learned the basics of "hands only" cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). BLS-certified personnel were provided by fire stations, ambulance companies, and hospitals to trainresidents in the simple "hands only" CPR technique that is vital to saving the life of someone insudden cardiac arrest. During this year's event, thousands of residents were trained in thebasics.

Exclusive Operating Area (EOA) Committee for 2016:In anticipation of the 2016 competitive bidding process for EOAs, the EMS Agency is conveninga committee to begin meeting regarding upcoming request for proposals. The EmergencyAmbulance Transportation Services Agreements will be expiring May 31, 2016.
EMS System Data Report:Our second annual EMS System Data Report was presented in June, 2013. The goals of thesystemwide data report include:
• Provide EMS data to our system participants and in doing so encourage them torecognize the importance of their data in managing our system.
• Highlight data gaps and their impact on our ability to make data driven decisions andto properly evaluate the quality of patient care provided.
• Demonstrate how the EMS system design parallels the healthcare needs of thecommunity in addressing the leading causes of death and disability (heart attack,stroke, and trauma) as reported by Public Health.
Without a robust and real time data, management of our system is always playing "catch" upwith system wide events. A copy of the EMS System Data Report is included in the documentssubmitted with this annual update.
Pediatric Surge Plan:After two years of planning, the Los Angeles (LA) County Pediatric Surge Plan is finallycompleted. The plan, developed in collaboration with Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CH~A),has the potential to double the number of available pediatric acute care (PAC) beds andincrease the number of pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) beds by 140% during an emergency.
The initial step in developing the surge plan was identifying the existing gaps. To do this CHLAconducted a countywide assessment of the current status of pediatric services and found thefollowing:
• Limited pediatric bed capacity on a daily basis.• Geographic variability of pediatric bed capacity.• Limited pediatric specialty physician resources in hospitals.• Varying availability of staff with pediatric training.• Availability of pediatric critical care supplies.
As part of the plan development, each hospital participating in the Hospital PreparednessProgram (HPP) was assigned to a tier based upon the type of pediatric service they currentlyprovide. Then each hospital tier was assigned a surge target in order to increase the county'savailable pediatric beds during a disaster.
The EMS Agency, again in collaboration with CHLA, provided six pediatric surge trainingclasses December 2012 through March 2013. These training classes provided an overview ofthe pediatric surge plan but mainly focused an updating the pediatric management skills ofclinical staff to enable them to manage pediatric patients. Training for prehospital personnel(paramedics and mobile intensive care nurses) was provided through EMS Update 2013.

ANNUAL UPDATE 2013{Fiscal Year 2012-2013)
EMS Conducts Volunteer Disaster ExerciseOn April 26, 2013, the Los Angeles County (LAC) Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Agencyconducted a countywide exercise of its Disaster Healthcare Volunteer (DHV) program. LACDHV is part of a nation-wide federally funded program of pre-registered, pre-credentialedhealthcare volunteers capable of working in hospitals and other clinical and public healthsettings in the event of disasters and health emergencies.
The exercise was a culmination of a three-year training and exercise program that is uniqueamong counties in California. This full-scale exercise tested the County's ability to respond to alarge disaster using its DHV program. Although the needs may range from staffing relief at ahospital heavily impacted by an earthquake to providi9ng flu vaccines at a public health clinic,the key to a smooth response is advance registrations, planning and periodic drills andexercises. A special thank-you to the 200 volunteers and the healthcare facilities thatparticipated, including California Hospital Medical Center, Henry Mayo Newhall MemorialHospital, Providence Little Company of Mary San Pedro, PIH Health Hospital, NorthridgeHospital Medical Center, Santa Monica —UCLA Medical Center, Venice Family Clinic andEisner Pediatric &Family Medical Center in making this exercise a huge success.
Annual EMS UpdateDuring this fiscal year from March to June 2013 LAC EMS Agency educated 3736 licensedparamedics and 880 certified Mobile Intensive Care Nurses (MICNs) in the following topics.
• Oxygen titrationEmergency Childbirth with care of the newborn infant
• Los Angeles County Pediatric Surge Program
Every active paramedic and MICN in LAC is required to attend the EMS Update on an annualbasis. This education is developed by the LAC EMS Agency with input from the Base Hospitalsand Provider Agencies in LAC; and then the education is conducted by the Base Hospitals andProvider Agencies for their personnel.

RECOMMENDED GUIDELINES:
Emergency medical service areas (response zones) shall be designated so that, for ninety percent of emergency responses, response timesshall not exceed:
Metropolitan/Urban Area Suburban(Rural Area Wilderness AreaBLS and CPR Capable First Responder 5 minutes 15 minutes As quick) as possibleEarl Defibrillation — Ca able Res onder 5 minutes As uickl as ossible As uickl as ossibleALS Capable Responder (notfunctionin as first responder
8 minutes 20 minutes As quickly as possible
EMS Transportation Unit (not functioningas first responder)
8 minutes 20 minutes As quickly as possible
CURRENT STATUS:
Meets minimum standard. BLS ambulance providers providing emergency transportation services in any of the seven exclusive operatingareas are required to meet the metro/urban — 8 minute, suburbanlrural — 20 minute and wilderness — as quickly as possible, standards. Theagreements between the County and the independent cities not included in the seven exclusive operating areas, do not specify responsetimes. This is negotiated between the individual cities an the ambulance provider.
Although this is an accepted guideline, the LEMSA has not mandated the primary responder, whether ALS or BLS, to meet the Statestandards. Response time data is collected on response times from ali primary providers, but has not been analyzed to determine whetherprovider agencies are meeting these standards.
COORDINATION WITH OTHER EMS AGENCIES:
Unless requested to provide mutual aid to ane of the surrounding counties, provider agencies do not routinely respond to other counties.Therefore, it has been unnecessary to establish response time standards across county borders

Guidelines have been established in policy to identify specific patient groups who should be considered for transfer to facilities of highercapabilities. In lieu of facility transfer agreements, the LEMS has developed transfer policies that identify EMTALA transfers requiring highercapabilities.
COORDINATION WITH OTHER EMS AGENCIES:
The EMS Agency has not established format transfer agreements with hospitals outside of Los Angeles County. If a specialty bed is needed inanother county (usually a burn bed), the Medical Alert Center contacts the hospital and arranges for transfer. This primarily for the medicallyindigent patient. Private hospitals that want to transfer medically insured patients make their own transfer arrangements.

Meets minimum standard. All 9-1-1 receiving hospitals in Los Angeles County have a direct communication link, with the LEMSA through theMedical Alert Center's (MAC) V-MED 28 radio. When a mass casualty incident occurs, the MAC is appraised of the incident by the primaryprovider agencies. The MAC immediately collects bed availability information from hospitals and provides this information to field personnel.The MAC informs hospitals of the patients being transported to each facility. The goal is to avoid overloading any particular health facility whenothers could handle an additional patient volume.
The Incident Command System (ICS) has been adopted by all public provider agencies and nearly all private providers in Los Angeles Countyto ensure organized, e~cient care of victims of mass casualty incidents. The Standardized Emergency management System (SEMS) has beenimplemented with all medical facilities. Reference No. 519, Management of Multiple Casualty Incidents, defines the role of the provider agency,base hospital, receiving facilities and the County's Medical Alert Center during multiple casualty incidents. Basic 24-hour receiving facilities andspecialty care facilities (where appropriate) are listed in the Prehospital Care Policy Manual and are regularly updated.
The LEMSA, as the DNS Disaster Coordination Section, works closely with ail haspitais and medical facilities to prepare for mass casualtysituations. A disaster drill is conducted yearly to allow all facilities and field providers to test their systems and plans. The focus of the drillvaries each year.
The LEMSA has implemented and funded twelve hospitals ,geographically located and designated as Disaster Resource Centers (DRCs).The goals of the DRC program include enhancing surge capacity for hospitals during a mass casualty incident. Additionally, plans have beenput into place to manage specific mass casualty incidents. The following policies address the specific surge plans, policies and procedures:
