The EMS Management Journal was published in 2004 by HealthAnalytics in collaboration with the National EMS Management Association, the National Association of State EMS Directors and the National Association of EMS Educators. It was distributed exclusively in electronic formats with web downloads and mini-CDs. Only two issues were published before HealthAnalytics changed ownership and withdrew from the project. Copies of the complete issues and individual articles, in PDF format, may be accessed and downloaded from this page free of charge.
