GPS trackers are being installed in many types of vehicles, such as emergency medical service vehicles. It would be great to be able to send the emergency vehicle with GPS tracking system so as to provide the quickest response time and to be able to track them more frequently while they are in-route.

Getting to an emergency situation rapidly is extremely important to emergency medical vehicles. Taking the patients back to the hospital quickly is also important. The best dispatching can be done using turn-by-turn directions to the location of patient pick-up. If there are construction zones or other obstacles, the dispatch manager can see them on the GPS tracking system and send the message to the drivers. They can re-route the drivers by showing them the quickest, alternate route.

Being able to update location frequently is also a powerful function. Some GPS trackers update the location every ten seconds. This way the emergency medical service vehicle will have constant updates while it is in-route to and from the hospital. 

The GPS tracking system can also help with the billing process. After patients have been transported safely to the hospital, a report can be generated which will show the mileage driven, the time and distance driven. This will account for better billing accuracy for patients.
