Executive Summary 

Louisiana has set an aggressive target for reducing death and injury on the roadways –Destination Zero 

Deaths. Great progress has been made since the development and implementation of the 2006 Strategic 

Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) and its subsequent update in October, 2011 and July, 2017. The 2017 SHSP 

targets five emphasis areas: impaired driving, occupant protection, infrastructure and operations, crashes 

involving young drivers and distracted driving. Since 2007, traffic fatalities have dropped from 993 to as low as 

677 in 2011 and serious injuries were reduced from 1830 in 2008 to 1329 in 2017. Louisiana experienced a 2% 

increase in fatalities in 2017; however, Louisiana remains below our SHSP target of reducing fatalities in half 

by 2030.

Louisiana has accomplished a number of successes in each emphasis area including the following:

Infrastructure and Operations 

Data and analysis improvements: State-specific safety performance functions (SPFs) for intersection network 

screening have been developed and state specific SPF for segments are being used for network screening on 

state routes. A Level of Service of Safety website has been developed to display the results of the network 

screening process for safety stakeholders. The goal is to institutionalize the use of the network screening 

results and share this information with the Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) for further integration 

of quantitative safety in the planning process. In addition, we have conducted various safety analysis training 

sessions for engineers and planners. The training sessions primarily focused on how to conduct a 

comprehensive project level crash data analysis using LADOTD’s internal excel-based Crash Analysis Tool 

(CAT Scan) using state specific SPFs.

We finalized the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Project Selection Guide outlining the criteria 

that will be used to select and prioritize all HSIP infrastructure projects on state routes. Similar guides have 

been updated for Local Road Safety Program and Safe Routes to Public Places Program projects. Also for 

evaluation of the SHSP, web-based data dashboards have been updated for safety stakeholders and regional 

safety coalitions to assess progress ( http://datareports.lsu.edu/shsps.aspx ) and use in conjunction with SHSP 

action plans.

Also, in coordination with the Local Technical Assistance Program, we have updated the crash data profiles for 

the top 20 parishes which includes local road crash data by jurisdiction. These crash data profiles have helped 

to inform Regional Safety Coalition Infrastructure and Operations Teams on highest safety priorities for a 

parish based on location and also has influenced the LRSP project identification process to be more data 

driven. 

We are continuing to work with the regional safety coalition SHSP infrastructure and operations emphasis area 

teams to develop district-wide (state owned routes) and/or parish-wide (locally owned routes) safety plans to 

identify the highest priority sites with the largest safety potential for HSIP funding on state and locally owned 

routes. We are funding the Metropolitan Planning Organizations through the safety coalitions contracts to 

develop the parish-wide local road safety plans.

We have completed the first phase of the local road contract to collect video and the MIRE FDE's on all locally 

owned public roads. In an additional contract, the State is filling in the remainder of the local roads that were 

missed as part of the original contract. The State anticipates that it has collected approximately 90% of all the 

local public roads statewide. These data items have not yet been loaded into the enterprise system as the 

State is still working through issues with the state system. Many of these data elements combined with crash 

data are being used by a FHWA team to develop a LADOTD Roadway Departure Implementation Plan to 

identify potential high priority routes/corridors for future HSIP projects. This project was requested as part of 

the FHWA Focused Approach for Roadway Departure.
2018 Louisiana Highway Safety Improvement Program

We hosted a safety data integration peer exchange in April 2018 to discuss opportunities to integrate our 

roadway and crash data for advancing our HSIP. One significant outcome of this was a pilot project with 

Acadiana MPO to develop a data integration plan that could be used as a framework for all local entities who 

would like to obtain and utilize LADOTD roadway data for state and locally owned roads.

In addition, LADOTD has recently gained executive support to establish a data governance committee for more 

informative collaboration among various sections and agencies who are using our roadway data. As part of 

data governance related to roadway data, the State has developed a data dictionary that applies to all public 

roads. So when we collect data on local roads it will comply with the data dictionary. MIRE FDE's and 

additional elements, are documented in the data dictionary.

As part of the Data Driven Safety Analysis EDC, LADOTD and FHWA have worked together to update the 

2011 HSM Implementation Plan to be a DDSA Implementation Plan with the purpose of including more safety 

analyses in the overall LADOTD project delivery process. Next steps include establishing a DDSA Task Force 

with all LADOTD sections represented so they can finalize the action plan and carry it forward.

Systemic safety improvements:

We are continuing to implement cable barrier projects statewide based on a statewide systemic cable median 

barrier study which produced a prioritized list of candidate locations where median barrier would be considered 

for installation. High speed, controlled access facilities with a median width less than 100' were analyzed in the 

study.

As of July 2017, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD) has installed 

approximately 230 miles of cable barriers throughout the State at an investment of approximately $30 million. 

There are currently another 265 miles under construction along I-10, I-55, I-59 and I-49 corridors for 

approximately $367 million.

We are also continuing to implement districtwide low cost safety improvement projects which resulted from a 

previous systemic roadway departure study performed on state routes. The countermeasures have included 

enhanced signing and striping (i.e. 6" edge lines) and high friction surface treatment where pavement condition 

allows. There were some delays with these projects due to updates on the High Friction Surface Treatment 

specification.

Non-Motorized Users

LADOTD has completed one full programming cycle year of the Safe Route to Public Places Program 

(SRTPPP) as part of the HSIP. This program has an annual application process for owners (state and local 

entities) for safety improvement projects focused on non-motorized safety. Feedback has been positive from 

Local Public Agencies, however, the demand is much higher than the available funds.

LADOTD participated in EDC-4 Safe Transportation for Everyone (STEP) initiative. An internal policy review 

workshop was conducted by Toole Design Group, which highlighted the need for an annual pedestrian crash 

analysis and more local collaboration, along with other recommendations to other groups outside of safety

LADOTD prepared the first statewide Complete Streets Performance Measures Report and developed a draft 

Complete Streets Implementation Plan. Safety considerations have been used for these efforts to help bring 

awareness to potential concerns and identify opportunities where improvements can be made on new projects.

Under the FHWA Focused Approach for Pedestrians and Bicyclists, LADOTD is managing a Bicycle and 

Pedestrian Safety Action Plan and Masterplan for the City of Baton Rouge – Parish of East Baton Rouge. This 

plan will prioritize locations for safety improvements as part of a larger recommended network for the entire 

City-Parish.

Occupant Protection

While the observed seat belt usage rate has increased steadily from 2011 to 2017; Louisiana measured a 

statewide usage rate of 87.1% which fell short of the historic high measured in 2017 (87.8%). This difference is 

not statistically significant. Louisiana conducted its fourth nighttime observed seat belt usage survey. It 

confirmed that over time the gap is narrowing between daytime and nighttime belt usage but nighttime belt use 

continues to be lower. Education and outreach activities were conducted by University Medical Center, 

ThinkFirst of Ark-La-Tex, Louisiana Passenger Safety Task Force, YMCA of New Orleans, Ready, Set, Drive, 

BRAKES Program, and Rock the Belt. The Louisiana Highway Safety Commission (LHSC) provided overtime 

enforcement funding to 46 local police departments and sheriff's offices along with Louisiana State Police.

Young Drivers

Through the Young Driver SHSP Emphasis Area Team, Louisiana Department of Transportation and 

Development (LADOTD) is partnering with Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV), Louisiana State Police (LSP) and 

Louisiana Highway Safety Commission (LHSC) to revise the State's 30-hour novice driver education 

curriculum and to deliver a complete comprehensive curriculum, with lesson plans, to the State. Sudden 

Impact Program (comprehensive injury prevention program targeting adolescents) reached just over 21,348 

students. Think First Program coordinated and implemented 88 programs on underage drinking and impaired 

driving reaching 6,914 students and 1,369 adults in the 2017 calendar year.

Impaired Driving

LADOTD and LHSC collaborated to revise the 2019 Statewide Impaired Driving Plan for 405d Funds. The plan 

is required in order to receive federal funding. The plan was approved by the SHSP Impaired Driving Emphasis 

Area Team on May 9, 2018 and submitted to NHTSA in June 2018. DWI overtime enforcement was 

implemented in Tier One Alcohol Problem ID Parishes corresponding with national and state mobilizations. 

There are a total of eight DWI courts serving clients in twelve parishes throughout the state. No Refusal 

Programs are expanding across the state at this time.

SHSP Implementation & Update

Louisiana is using a two-tiered approach to implement the SHSP: Statewide Emphasis Area Teams create 

data-driven action plans and track implementation of SHSP strategies and action steps, and regional Safety 

Coalitions utilize data to identify regional safety needs and develop data-driven five-year regional safety plans 

which identify three to five emphasis areas consistent with the SHSP.

The SHSP Implementation Team oversees overall implementation of the Plan and is supported by an 

Executive Committee. The team consists of representatives from the Louisiana Department of Transportation 

and Development (LADOTD), Louisiana State Police (LSP), Louisiana Highway Safety Commission (LHSC), 

Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP), Louisiana Planning Council (LPC), Louisiana Municipal 

Association (LMA), Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration 

(FMCSA), National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), in addition to the statewide emphasis area 

team leaders and regional safety coalition coordinators.

Regional Highway Safety Coalitions

Through a partnership with Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO), we established nine regional 

transportation safety coalitions across the State. Led by safety coalition coordinators housed within each of the 

MPOs and championed by leaders from a range of agencies and organizations, each coalition comprises local 

experts and advocates working toward the development and implementation of regional safety plans based on 

the SHSP. This regional, grassroots, 4E approach (engineering, enforcement, education, and emergency 

response) to saving lives has proven to be highly effective.

The Louisiana two-tiered approach to lowering fatalities and serious injuries is accomplished in part by 

developing and continually implementing the federally required SHSP. Each region is charged with forming a 

multidisciplinary or 4E safety coalition, reviewing the regional and local crash data, and developing a 

continually evolving, data driven action plan that is linked to the SHSP. All nine Regional Safety Coalitions 

have adopted regional safety action plans.

Local Road Safety

Funding for Local Road Safety Improvement Projects is available through the Louisiana Local Road Safety 

Program (LRSP). Eligible projects include those for roadways and transportation systems owned and operated 

by parish and/or municipal road agencies. Specific funds are available for selected projects and additional 

funding sources or resources may be available depending on the type of project. Louisiana Department of 

Transportation and Development (LADOTD) administers the LRSP in coordination with Louisiana Technical 

Assistance Program (LTAP). Proposed projects can be submitted anytime throughout the year, with the 

selection process conducted by the LRSP Project Selection Team on a quarterly basis.

The parish safety profiles are preliminary data packages that help to focus efforts at the local level through the 

SHSP Regional Safety Coalitions (coordinated through the Metropolitan Planning Organization). The 

Metropolitan Planning Organizations are tasked with helping to facilitate local road safety plan development 

that starts with the parish safety profiles, stakeholder outreach and coordination, and subsequent project 

application submittals. The proposed process will provide sustainability in terms of institutionalizing safety in 

the planning process and consistency in Local Public Agency Involvement.

The top 20 parishes were identified using the number of fatalities and serious/moderate injuries. Efforts have 

been focused on the top 20 parishes due to limited resources, but additional parishes may be addressed in the 

future and based on local interest and available resources.

Introduction

The Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is a core Federal-aid program with the purpose of achieving 

a significant reduction in fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads. As per 23 U.S.C. 148(h) and 23 CFR 

924.15, States are required to report annually on the progress being made to advance HSIP implementation and 

evaluation efforts. The format of this report is consistent with the HSIP Reporting Guidance dated December 

29, 2016 and consists of five sections: program structure, progress in implementing highway safety 

improvement projects, progress in achieving safety outcomes and performance targets, effectiveness of the 

improvements and compliance assessment.

Program Structure

Program Administration

Describe the general structure of the HSIP in the State. 

Projects that are identified through the Highway Safety Improvement Plan (HSIP) have the overall goal of 

reducing the number and severity of crashes and decreasing the potential for crashes on all public roads.

The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LA DOTD) performs HSIP components of 

planning, implementation, and evaluation to accomplish requirements of the program. These components 

involve the following: data-driven identification of crash locations, development and implementation of an 

annual program of projects and report annually to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) on progress 

and effectiveness. FHWA is involved in all three components, both formally and through informal technical 

assistance.

LA DOTD completed Safe Routes to Public Places Program Guidelines, Local Road Safety Program 

Guidelines and Highway Safety Improvement Program Infrastructure Project Selection Guide for State Routes. 

Please see the attached documents that explain how HSIP projects are identified, selected, designed, 

implemented and evaluated.

Describe how local and tribal roads are addressed as part of HSIP.

The Local Road Safety Program (LRSP) is allocated approximately $3-5 million per year. Eligible projects 

include those for roadways and transportation systems owned and operated by parish and municipal road 

agencies. Specific funds are available for selected local safety data-driven projects and additional funding 

sources or resources may be available depending on the type of project. Funding for Local Road Safety 

Improvement Projects is available through the LRSP.

Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LA DOTD) administers the LRSP in coordination 

with Louisiana Technical Assistance Program (LTAP). LTAP coordinates activities and resources in 

conjunction with the LA DOTD to facilitate quarterly project submittals, review and scoring, and 

recommendation of qualifying project applications for the Local Road Safety Improvement Projects. LTAP has 

also developed parish crash data profiles and delivered crash data workshops to the Top 20 parishes to better 

inform the data-driven process.

All stakeholders work hard to bring new partners to the table, including judges, private sector employers, tribal 

representatives, driving school educators and non-profit group advocates. 

Identify which internal partners (e.g., State departments of transportation (DOTs) Bureaus, Divisions) 

are involved with HSIP planning.

Describe coordination with internal partners.

Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LA DOTD) Design assists with Highway Safety 

Improvement Program (HSIP) by providing quality reviews of scope, budgets, and design alternatives 

considered during feasibility stage as needed. LA DOTD Districts perform an annual review of High Potential 

Safety Improvement List (HPSI List) and prioritizes potential safety projects within each district. Once locations 

are identified, they perform crash data analysis to select appropriate countermeasures and prepare scope and 

budget for proposed alternatives, including economic evaluation. LA DOTD Planning unit assists with feasibility 

studies which in turn provides guidance as to whether or not a project is a good fit for the safety program. LA 

DOTD Traffic Engineering unit provide input and feedback regarding safety intersection improvements such as 

traffic signals and roundabouts. LA DOTD Operations guidance and feedback is sought when a statewide, 

systemic approach has been identified as a safety improvement and will require long-term commitment to 

maintain (guardrail upgrades, cable barrier, etc.).

Describe coordination with external partners.

About 25 percent of roadway deaths and 40 percent of all crashes in Louisiana occur on the local road system. 

Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LA DOTD) partnered with the Louisiana Local 

Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) to manage the Local Road Safety Program (LRSP) to provide training, 

technical assistance, and outreach to local jurisdictions through an application process.

The Louisiana Highway Safety Commission (LHSC) is actively involved in the development of the SHSP 

particularly the emphasis area plans. As such, the projects and activities funded by the Highway Safety Plan 

(HSP) are reflected in these emphasis area action plans. The second goal in Louisiana’s Statewide 

Transportation Plan (STP) is coordinated with the HSIP and SHSP to provide safe and secure travel conditions 

across all transportation modes through physical infrastructure improvements, operational controls, programs, 

and public education and awareness. One of the ways to achieve this goal is through the objective of reducing 

the number and rate of highway-related crashes, fatalities, and serious injuries, which corresponds to the 

performance targets for the HSIP and HSP and the measurable objectives in the Strategic Highway Safety 

Plan (SHSP). A review of the Commercial Vehicle Safety Plan (CVSP) found several areas that link to the 

SHSP including removing alcohol- and drug-impaired commercial vehicle operators from the road and 

outreach and education on seat belt use.

LA DOTD works closely with Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) division office on statewide and regional 

initiatives related to SHSP strategies and HSIP, in particular those related to safety data and planning and 

HSIP infrastructure projects.

Local and state law enforcement agencies actively participate in the statewide SHSP emphasis area teams 

and the regional safety coalitions. Their involvement is critical as SHSP strategies are initiated and achieved at 

the regional level. Their participation is also key for statewide safety initiatives/campaigns. In addition, the law 

enforcement agencies participate in the Road Safety Audits.

LA DOTD also employs a law enforcement liaison to assist with trainings and outreach to the various law 

enforcement agencies statewide to increase the quality of data. Additional duties include Traffic Incident 

Management and Work Zone law enforcement training. 

Regional Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO) are actively engaged within the regional safety coalitions. 

Each MPO employs a safety coalition coordinator to oversee the activities of each coalition. The planning 

organizations also work with the LA DOTD planners to use safety and roadway data for their internal analyses 

and assist with their internal prioritization of projects. Many of the MPOs have committed to developing local 
2018 Louisiana Highway Safety Improvement Program 

Page 11 of 64

road safety plans at parish level and reaching out to local entities to discuss potential opportunities for 

addressing safety concerns.

Louisiana Center for Transportation (LCTS) Safety was established as part of the LA DOTD/Louisiana 

Transportation Research Center to assist the LA DOTD with highway safety focused research being performed 

in Louisiana, improving workforce development for highway safety professionals, and SHSP initiatives and 

strategies identified at a statewide level. 

The Highway Safety Research Group (HSRG) at Louisiana State University (LSU) provides assistance to LA 

DOTD for fatal Accident Reporting System, crash report software development and training, data quality 

reviews, and real-time reporting tools for stakeholders. HSRG also conducts specialized crash data analysis 

studies as requested by LHSC, LA DOTD, or Louisiana State Police (LSP).

adopt the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials 

(AASHTO) goal of halving fatalities by 2030. Louisiana’s Strategic Highway Safety 

Plan (SHSP), which the LA DOTD oversees, reflects this overall goal as well. Despite 

an increase in fatalities and serious injuries over the last few years, it was decided to 

renew the commitment to saving lives and continue to set decreasing targets. LA 

DOTD reviewed the actual and linear trend of fatalities, fatality rate, serious injuries, 

serious injury rate and the statewide non-motorized fatalities and serious injuries over 

5 year moving periods dating back to 2005. Trends were evaluated to determine if a 

linear trend could be established and carried through 2019. In most cases, a linear 

trend-derived target was adopted. These targets are less aggressive than in years past 

and represent a 1% annual decrease from the most current 5-year average. Based on 

historical data, the number of fatalities has increased annually over the last 5 years 

from 703 in 2013 to 773 in 2017. A steady percentage based reduction was chosen as 

the most practical justification for determine the 2019 target. To achieve the 2019 

target, fatalities will have to be reduced by two percent from 746 (2013 to 2017 

average) to 730.0 in 2019.

have decreased from a five-year high of 1396 in 2016 to a five-year low of 1329 in 

2017. A five-year average trend line was chosen as the most practical justification for 

determining the 2018 target based on trends and current programs enacted to address 

overall serious injuries in the State. To achieve the 2019 target, serious injuries will 

have to be reduced by two percent from 1361 (2013 to 2017 average) to 1332 in 2019.

Fatalities and Serious Injuries 319.9 

Describe the basis for established target, including how it supports SHSP goals. 

The overall goal is to reduce fatal and serious injury crashes on Louisiana roadways. 

This goal is especially critical for our most vulnerable non-motorized users, a 

population that has seen rapid growth in recent years. As mentioned previously, LHSC 

and the LA DOTD teamed up to identify consistent goals to be adopted by both 

agencies. The two agencies agreed to adopt the AASHTO goal of halving fatalities by 

2030 for all road users. The SHSP, which the LADOTD oversees, reflects this overall 

goal as well. Despite an increase in fatalities and serious injuries over the last few 

years, it was decided to renew the commitment to saving lives and continue to set 

decreasing targets. LA DOTD reviewed the actual and linear trend of fatalities, fatality 

rate, serious injuries, serious injury rate and the statewide non-motorized fatalities and 

serious injuries over 5 year moving periods dating back to 2005. Trends were 

evaluated to determine if a linear trend could be established and carried through 2019.

In most cases, a linear trend-derived target was adopted. These targets are less 

aggressive than in years past and represent a 1% annual decrease from the most 

current 5-year average. Non-motorized user fatalities and serious injuries have 

decreased for the first time in three years from an all time high (since tracking began 

in 2005) of 349 in 2016 to 346 in 2017. However as practical solutions are 

implemented and as awareness is heightened we feel confident that a 1% decrease 

annually can be realized. To achieve the 2019 target, the non-motorized users fatalities 

and serious injuries will have to be reduced by 2.0 percent from 326 (2013 to 2017 

average) to 319.9 in 2019.

Describe efforts to coordinate with other stakeholders (e.g. MPOs, SHSO) to establish safety performance 

targets. 

For support on safety performance management and target setting, Louisiana Department of Transportation 

and Development (LA DOTD) works with the Highway Safety Research Group (HSRG) at Louisiana State 

University. HSRG has developed several web-based dashboards to support the SHSP, including one for target 

setting. The dashboard calculates five year averages and shows how they compare to the Strategic Highway 

Safety Plan (SHSP) goal, which is halving fatalities by 2030. It also calculates a linear trend forecast. It is 

possible to filter the data in the target setting dashboard by the nine Regional Safety Coalitions established to 

implement the SHSP. Each regional coalition has its own SHSP safety goal, which is a proportion of the total 

State SHSP goal. Coalitions can use the dashboard to look at trend lines. Given that the regional safety 

coalitions represent larger areas than the Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) and already have their 

own strategic goals related to the SHSP, participants noted it may be confusing for the MPOs to set additional 

safety targets.

For annual performance targets the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission (LHSC) has used three and fiveyear average linear trends to set targets. Generally they have used three-year averages, which has better Rsquared values indicating how well the trend line fit the data. For some emphasis areas, such as nonmotorized crashes, they have chosen a target of maintenance of the same value. In the future LHSC targets 

for the common measures will need to be set using five-year rolling averages to be in alignment with the 

FHWA rule and so LADOTD/SHSO targets will be identical.

LA DOTD and LHSC have been working together for the past several years to obtain agreement on targets. 

They have reviewed trends using three and five year averages and chosen targets based on the trend line that 

seems most reasonable based on the R-squared and the annual percentage reduction required to meet the 

target. Louisiana has an SHSP Implementation team, which meets twice per year. The group met in 2017 and 

agreed on safety targets for the required performance measures.

According to the Planning Final Rule (Statewide and Nonmetropolitan Transportation Planning; Metropolitan 

Transportation Planning Final Rule issued May 27, 2016) Metropolitan Transportation Plans (MTPs) will need 

to discuss how the plan will achieve safety targets. The MPOs Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and 

the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) also must discuss how they will achieve targets. 

Every MTP update will include development of a System Performance Report, which will state what targets are 

and whether the region achieved targets.

Safety performance management happens annually. However for other performance measures it will not be 

reported annually.
2018 Louisiana Highway Safety Improvement Program 

Page 51 of 64

The review of MPO target achievement will be part of FHWA planning process reviews. Any needed changes 

will happen within the planning process review. There is no consequence for MPOs in the Federal legislation. 

MPOs will report their targets (either targets specific to the region or support of the five State safety targets, or

a combination of the two) to the LA DOTD. A method for reporting to the State DOT is not prescribed. The LA 

DOTD needs to determine how that will happen. For example, reporting could take the form of MPO minutes 

that are copied to the LA DOTD or letter from MPO Executive director to LA DOTD.

Describe actions the State will take moving forward to meet the requirement to have complete access to the MIRE fundamental data elements on all public roads by September 30, 2026.

All fundamental MIRE data elements are 100% collected, or estimated, with the exception of Interchange Type (182) and Ramp AADT (191). Those two are 34% complete for State Owned roads and should be 100% in two more years. 

Those two for Non State Owned roads have yet to be identified.

To further explain the 0% collected for type of government ownership (state and non-state local paved roads and unpaved roads), the plan for capturing local ownership by 2026 will be based on GIS centerline files and geo-processing 

procedure to clip the roads at city and parish limits. The further maintenance of the local data will be through the coordination of efforts and data governance procedures being initiated.

Provide the suspected serious injury identifier, definition and attributes used by the State for both the crash report form and the crash database using the table below. Please also indicate whether or not these elements are 

compliant with the MMUCC 4th edition criteria for data element P5. Injury Status, suspected serious injury.
