Hospital emergency departments are a major part of the nation's health care safety net. Of the estimated 119 million visits to US emergency departments in 2006, over 40 percent were paid for by federally-supported programs. This book explores the issues in providing emergency medical care, including crowding in emergency hospital departments.
