North Central Texas Trauma Regional Advisory Council

What North Central Texas Trauma Regional Advisory Council does

NCTTRAC is the designated administrative body for trauma system oversight across Trauma Service Areas C, D, and E in North Central Texas. Founded in 1994 and headquartered in Arlington, TX, the organization is a non-profit advisory council that coordinates emergency medical services, healthcare preparedness, and trauma, cardiac, stroke, pediatric, and perinatal care across 11 standing committees. Its operational core is the TSA-E Emergency Medical Coordination Center (EMCC), which provides 24/7 regional coordination, supplemented by member-facing systems including the EMResource platform (Juvare) for resource management, Pulsara for Mass Casualty Incident patient tracking, a Litmos-based Learning Management System for EMS education, and a Power BI Chiefs & Executives Dashboard for performance visibility.

NCTTRAC's product portfolio spans two main lines. Its programs include the Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP) operating three Healthcare Coalitions (HCC-C, HCC-D, HCC-E), the Emergency Healthcare Services (EHS) program with system plan development and designation support, Stop The Bleed bystander training, and newly launched clinical initiatives such as the Prehospital Transfusion Program and Prehospital Whole Blood Pilot Program. Its member services include the GrowthZone Member Hub with newly implemented Single Sign-On integration, an LMS for EMS provider orientation, Regional Pulsara MCI Patient Tracking, and Pediatric QCPR Training Manikins available for reservation.

The organization's business model is membership- and grant-funded rather than commercially priced. NCTTRAC draws operating revenue from member dues across categories (hospitals, ground and air EMS providers, first responders, schools, physician groups, professional associations), pass-through EMS county funding, and state and federal Hospital Preparedness Program grants. Go-to-market is conducted through committee participation, healthcare conferences, regional events, and an active digital presence rather than commercial sales channels. No commercial pricing is publicly disclosed, and FY25 and FY27 annual report cycles confirm ongoing programmatic continuity.

Broad incumbents

• REMSA (Regional Emergency Medical Services Authority): Nevada-based regional EMS authority providing integrated ground and air ambulance, dispatch, and community health services. Comparable to NCTTRAC in its regional coordination and 24/7 medical command function, though REMSA also operates as a direct service provider.
• Maryland Institute for Emergency Medical Services Systems (MIEMSS): State-level agency coordinating Maryland's EMS and trauma systems. Larger and more centralized than NCTTRAC, but provides a comparable function of statewide EMS/trauma oversight, protocols, and designation that NCTTRAC performs at the regional level.

Direct peers

• BorderRAC (Rio Grande Valley Trauma Regional Advisory Council): Texas RAC serving Trauma Service Areas along the U.S.–Mexico border. Functions as a peer non-profit council overseeing regional trauma system planning, EMS coordination, and healthcare coalition preparedness in its region.
• Capital Area Trauma Regional Advisory Council (CATRAC): Texas RAC covering Trauma Service Areas in the Austin/Central Texas region. Mirrors NCTTRAC's structure as a non-profit advisory body coordinating trauma, stroke, cardiac, and EMS systems among hospitals and providers.
• Southwest Texas Regional Advisory Council (STRAC): One of the other 22 Texas Regional Advisory Councils; operates the same trauma/EMS coordination mandate for Southwest Texas Trauma Service Areas. Directly comparable in mission, statutory role, committee structure, and member ecosystem to NCTTRAC.
• MESH Coalition: Indiana-based healthcare coalition providing emergency preparedness and response coordination across hospitals, EMS, and public health partners. Direct peer to NCTTRAC's Healthcare Coalitions (HCC-C, HCC-D, HCC-E) in mission, membership model, and disaster preparedness scope.
• East Texas Gulf Coast Regional Advisory Council: Texas RAC for the East Texas/Gulf Coast region. Comparable in scale, mission, and statutory role to NCTTRAC, coordinating trauma, cardiac, stroke, and emergency preparedness across its TSAs.
• Houston Regional Advisory Council (now Houston-area RAC): Texas RAC serving the Houston metropolitan area. Peer in regulatory mandate, member-driven governance, and emergency healthcare coordination responsibilities across its designated TSAs.

Others

• National Association of State EMS Officials (NASEMSO): National membership organization for state EMS offices. Not a direct RAC peer, but adjacent — it sets national EMS standards, supports state-level EMS coordination bodies, and is an ecosystem counterpart to NCTTRAC's regulatory and coordination work.

Regional players

• Getac Coalition (Greater Houston Healthcare Disaster Preparedness Coalition): Regional healthcare coalition model operating in a different Texas geography. While not a RAC itself, it parallels NCTTRAC's Healthcare Coalition function by convening hospitals, EMS, and emergency management partners for preparedness and response in its own region.
