Abstract
Hospital emergency departments in the US are facing increasing challenges due to growth in patient demand for their services, and inability to increase capacity to match demand. We report on a new approach to patient flow in emergency departments, and a simulation model of the approach. Initial results from the model show that the approach is feasible, and a pilot study demonstrates substantial improvements in patient care.
