The Gap: Why We Should Care

Female doctor explains brochure information to senior man

The Emergency Department sits at the nexus of hospital-based care and the outpatient world. It serves as a front door for the hospital, providing over 70% of all hospital admissions.

From the ED’s unique vantage point, it is clear that an unaddressed “Care Gap” is costing the health care system and all its stakeholders dearly.

In this white paper, SCP Health’s Enterprise Chief Medical Officer Randy Pilgrim, MD, FACEP, FAAFP, identifies solutions and enumerates the benefits of narrowing and filling the Care Gap, including:

  • Improved patient outcomes
  • Decreased cost and risk
  • Increased capacity and optimized resources
  • Better performance in value-based models
