Over 100 million people a year visit emergency rooms
across the country, up 23% in the last 10 years.
Experts predict that the aging population, health
insurance crunch, and rising medical costs, hospitals
can expect even more crowded conditions and higher
patient loads in the future. Is your hospital prepared to
handle the onslaught?

It would be if you implemented Emergency Physician
PA’s Doctor Direct program. Doctor Direct is not your

 

     
  
  typical “fast track” system. It’s a fundamental shift in
how patients are treated in the ED. With Doctor Direct,
the treatment process is parallel instead of linear
ensuring patients are immediately assessed by a
doctor. This direct contact with an emergency
physician guarantees improved treatment efficiency.
How so? Because it is the doctor, not the triage nurse,
who controls the ED’s flow.

The Doctor Direct program produces amazing results in
less than a month. Clients who have implemented
Doctor Direct have been able to reduce their time from
reception to MD by more than 60-percent. They’ve
also seen a dramatic 95-percent decline in patients
who have left without being seen. Doctor Direct
hospitals boast skyrocketing Press - Ganey satisfaction
scores as well.

Better service attracts insured patients. As a result, our
Doctor Direct hospitals are seeing hospital collections
and profits go up, while actual staffing costs are going
down.

You don’t have to settle for disgruntled patients and
high turnaround times. Put Emergency Physicians PA’s
Doctor Direct program into action in your ED today!
