Effective July 30, 2025, you will notice a small but significant addition to your MEFIRS run reports. For calls meeting specific criteria (e.g., termination of resuscitation in the field), a new question will appear:
- "Did you make a notification to New England Donor Services?" (Yes/No)
- If "Yes," you'll enter the NEDS Referral Number.
- If "No," you'll select from a list of barriers to making the referral. This update supports protocol compliance and helps Maine EMS understand trends for improvement.
