    MISSISSIPPI TRAUMA CARE SYSTEM LIFE SAVING CARE IS NO ACCIDENT Amy Radican-Wald, MPH Senior Policy Analyst January 2007 Mississippi Trauma Care System, Page 2 of 46 J Table of Contents Executive Summary 3 History of Mississippi Trauma Care System Development 7 Burn Center 10 Trauma System Financing 14 Strengths of Mississippi’s Trauma Care System 16 Weaknesses of Mississippi’s Trauma Care System 20 Trauma System Options 24 Policy Implications 29 References 31 Appendix A 35 Appendix B 36 Appendix C 39 Appendix D 44 Mississippi Trauma Care System, Page 3 of 46 J Executive Summary The State of Mississippi has been building a formal statewide trauma system for over fifteen years. In recent years, barriers to progress have resulted in less than optimal trauma care statewide. A formalized system of trauma care helps injured patients receive specialized treatment at the closest capable facility. This type of system has been shown to reduce mortality. Further development of the trauma care system in Mississippi will be difficult unless existing barriers are addressed. This paper outlines the history of the trauma system in Mississippi, highlights its strengths and weaknesses, and discusses policy options for consideration by state policymakers. In 1991, the Mississippi Legislature charged the Department of Health with the responsibility for oversight of trauma system development. A trauma registry was established the following year. In 1997, the Legislature created the Trauma Care Task Force, an ad hoc seventeen-member group, to plan the development of a formal trauma system. The Task Force presented its recommendations to the Governor and the Legislature at the end of the same year.
