The Coordinated ED
Your emergency department is at the forefront of access and quality. Dynamic health systems are maximizing the efficiency, throughput, and patient experience of today’s ED in a shrinking reimbursement environment. Hospitals and physicians are also envisioning how the ED fits into a coordinated care system, with appropriate care given at multiple access points.
In this HealthLeaders Media Breakthroughs report, leading hospital systems—Scripps Health, Grady Health System, Mercy Medical Center, and Cambridge Health Alliance—share insights and lessons learned that will help you:
- Reduce ED wait times and patients leaving without being seen
- Apply technology and operational improvements to increase throughput and efficiency
