Is the new health law a good opportunity?
Although many of the provisions on the new health care law will not take effect for several years, observers say that ED managers must begin to deal with this new reality immediately. Redouble your efforts for improving throughput via rapid evaluation units and other process changes. Educate patients with chronic illnesses about the benefits of regular primary care visits. Work closely with patients who are adapting to the new law, and encourage them to take more responsibility for their personal health.
