AB  - The  emergency  medical  services  (EMS)  system  is  a  complex  combination  of  various  providers  and  facilities  that  provide  three  basic  medical  functions:  stabilization,  evacuation,  and  redistribution.  Although  organizational  structures  and  resources  vary  worldwide,  the  fundamental  components  of  any  EMS  system  are  essentially  the  same.  This  chapter  will  provide  the  EMS  physician  with  a  vital  understanding  of  the  organization  of  EMS  systems  and  how  such  design  considerations  provide  ­challenges  and  opportunities  for  patient-centered  emergency  medical  care.
