One of the many things we found we have in common with our colleagues in Croatian EMS is the need to complete paperwork. It seems that no matter where in the world you practice EMS or by what names you call your medications, a common need is to document what you do. In Croatian systems this occurs both on paper as well as on the computer. However, since the billing system is much different here there is less of a need to document specific components of an exam as there is in the United States. (ie 8ROS and 10 physical exam to bill a level 5 visit). The need to fill out paperwork on every patient you treat is a common frustration that we share with our EMS colleagues in Croatia.
