Mobile Integrated Healthcare (MIH) is the provision of healthcare using patient-centered, mobile resources in the out-of-hospital environment. It may include, but is not limited to, services such as providing telephone advice to 9-1-1 callers instead of resource dispatch; providing community paramedicine care, chronic disease management, preventive care or post-discharge follow-up visits; or transport or referral to a broad spectrum of appropriate care, not limited to hospital emergency departments.
(From the MIH Booklet - Vision Statement 2015)
This page includes links and articles of interest to the Pre-Hospital providers. Much like EMS itself, this is an evolution in the care of patients. It is not a sudden replacement for what is done currently by the EMS community.
