What is the purpose of Emergency Service Routing Digits?

To prioritize non-emergency calls
To facilitate emergency call handling
To route calls based on location
To enhance call encryption

The correct answer is: To facilitate emergency call handling

Emergency Service Routing Digits (ESRD) are used to facilitate emergency call handling. This means that when a person calls an emergency number, such as 911, the ESRD allows the call to be routed directly to the closest emergency call center. This helps to reduce response times and ensure that emergency services can quickly reach those in need. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because ESRD is not used to prioritize non-emergency calls, route calls based on location, or enhance call encryption. Its sole purpose is to help with routing emergency calls.
