AngelTrack has an enterprise PCR with the advanced features required for trauma, MICU, air medical, NICU, intercept, and other complex caseloads.
Read on to learn about the features of the enterprise PCR.
License Required
The enterprise PCR is a paid add-on to AngelTrack. It is not included with the core licenses because it is not needed by small providers.
You must visit your Feature Buffet, available from the Authorization page, and activate that add-on license before you can begin using it. To learn more, please visit the Feature Buffet Guide.
Custom Datafields
You can add custom datafields to most of the pages with the Enterprise PCR, with custom data types, custom sets of choices, custom "minimum" values for automatic red flagging, and custom criteria for when the datafield must be answered by the attending.
You can add new datafields, or deactivate old ones, freely and whenever you wish.
To learn more, please visit the Custom EMS PCR Fields Guide.
Custom Data Validation Rules
In the Enterprise PCR, you can assemble a custom ruleset of data validation rules that apply to each report in the same manner as the state and national data validation rules (aka schematrons).
You build your ruleset by selecting items from AngelTrack's built-in rule library. You can add more rules or deactivate old rules whenever you wish.
You can also have custom-custom data validation rules specifically for your agency, by engaging with AngelTrack Professional Services who will develop and test the rules for you or with you.

Data Validation (Schematron) Warning Statistics
The Enterprise PCR tracks the warning counts produced by each schematron (national / state / agency) every time a crew member submits a a completed or corrected report to QA.
This data can be viewed, analyzed, and charted using Report Builder, or exported for analysis in your favorite spreadsheet application.
As state trauma registries migrate from error-based data validation to warning-based validation, you will be able to pull the same data they do, to identify the top and bottom quintiles of your staff for accolades or retraining.
Data Validation (Schematron) Scores and Bonuses
The Enterprise PCR calculates and tracks the total score from all data validation rulesets (i.e. all schematrons) applied to each submitted report, including:
- National schematron: 3 points off for each warning;
- State schematron: 3 points off for each warning; and
- Agency (custom) schematron: Configurable 1 to 50 points off for each warning
A perfect score is 100, with each warning reducing that by the stated amount.
You can also create schematron rules which, if triggered, award +1 to +50 bonus points. For example, you might create a little bonus for collecting an SPO2 reading with each set of vital signs.
You can pull statistics on your crews' schematron scores over time, and organize the data however you like using Report Builder.
These scores are not the same as those calculated by your state trauma registry, which, if it calculates scores, uses a proprietary score system that is not disclosed in their published schematron and thus is not accessible to PCRs like AngelTrack. Instead, AngelTrack assigns a three-point penalty for each warning flagged by your state's schematron.
Custom Picklist Values
The Enterprise PCR allows you to add new items to all of the PCR's picklists, augmenting the NEMSIS standard values plus any custom values added by your state and/or county.
It works just like AngelTrack's NFIRS +1 Codes system. From the Custom EMS Picklist Values page, under Settings, you can choose any picklist field in the PCR, as well as some datafields from the dispatch side, and review and add items. You can also freely deactivate and reactivate items as you see fit.
To learn more, please visit the Custom EMS Picklist Values Guide.
Your state's and/or county's custom picklist choices were added to AngelTrack during the import of custom fields from the StateDataSet document, which was done for you during your AngelTrack deployment, but which you can do again at any time to pick up any changes.
