Mobile Integrated Healthcare Information, Research & Reports

EMS-based Mobile Integrated Health (MIH) is a healthcare delivery model that integrates various healthcare professionals, often including paramedics, nurses, and social workers, to provide care outside of traditional hospital settings, often leveraging EMS resources. EMS-based MIH programs aim to address gaps in healthcare access, reduce hospitalizations, and improve patient outcomes by providing timely, in-home care and coordination of services. 

AIMHI advocates for the implementation and development of these programs to improve patient outcomes, reduce preventable acute care utilization, enhance patient experience of care, and reduce healthcare expenditures.

This site provides various resources for agencies considering MIH program implementation, enhancing existing MIH programs, and help EMS stakeholders understand the principles of EMS-Based MIH programs.
