Calls may be re-routed by the BT Emergency Call Service to an Ambulance Service Trust (AST) outside of the geographic area of the incident (the Call Receiving AST) for the following reasons:
35
-
* The BT Intelligent Routing Platform (IRP) re-routes the call if the AST in the geographic area of the incident (the Home AST) has insufficient Call Handlers available to answer the call within a given time frame
36
-
* The Home AST has a 'buddying' arrangement with an out-of-area AST to take their calls under defined circumstances (e.g. system downtime, periods of surge)
37
-
* A third party caller calls about a patient in another area
38
-
* Calls where the incident is on the boundary between two ASTs
