Understanding the ER
Wait times and Triage
The complexity of managing waiting times can be challenging. Increased waiting times can be caused by factors such as seasonality, surge periods, and severity.To handle the sudden influx of patients, we have a second on-call system that gets activated. A senior on call is also available to provide logistical support.
Billing Codes Explained
Hospitals provide the facility, equipment, nursing and administration in an emergency unit. The hospital will always charge you a “Facility Fee” when you use an emergency unit over and above the doctor’s fees The doctors are by an outsourced doctor group (ER Consulting Inc). Specialists are not employed by the hospital either (including X-ray and Pathology Services).
Understanding your Treatment
Emergencies can be overwhelming. You might be concerned about your or your loved one’s condition and it can be difficult to pay attention to all the information given to you. Doctors and nurses frequently use medical language that can be confusing.
