2 Background Immediate or emergent visits accounted only for 32% of all ED visits in US in 2011 (National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey: 2011 Emergency Department Summary). ER care not only imposes high economic costs and hardship on self-paying individuals and insurance companies, but also stretches ER resources and may result in payment delinquency. Some studies suggest that a significant portion of ED patients could be treated in physicians offices with the same quality and outcomes (Bamezai et al., 2015). Lower ED costs & cost savings to the health system overall Conflicting results exists on the costs of emergency care compared to similar care outside of ED. e.g. Kellermann (2005) vs. Bamezai et al. (2005) 2
3 Background: ED Visits, United States Total number of visits, millions ,229 40,611 Rate of visits per 100,000 persons 42,013 42,059 41,694 41,088 42,820 42, Source: AHRQ/Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project 3

7 Mean and Median ED Wait Time, US From 2003 through 2009, the mean wait time in U.S. emergency departments (EDs) increased 25%, from 46.5 minutes to 58.1 minutes. The mean wait time in EDs increased as annual ED visit volume increased. 7
8 Emergency Severity Index Triage Algorithm Source: ESI Triage Research Team,
9 The Challenge Many use the ED as their primary or only source of medical care because they are not welcome elsewhere (Kellermann, 2005). After hours ED is the only viable option for those who cannot afford to miss a day of work. Surprising number of patients are sent to ED by health care professionals for reasons not associated with the severity of the patient s conditions. Increasing use of ED and overcrowding is a legitimate concern. Reflects the failure of ambulatory care system Restricting access to ED will not fix the problem 9
10 The Opportunity Improving access and affordability has the promise to address the problem. Telehealth for ED may be a viable alternative for addressing the problems of overcrowding and increasing wait times. Patients in non-life-threatening conditions (triage 4-5) Use of telehealth for ED visits can especially be important for small, rural hospitals that have limited resources compared to larger, urban hospitals (Wart et al. 2015). 10
11 Objective The Problem No full economic analysis exists on the economic feasibility of telemedicine applications for ED visits (Wart et al. 2015). small number of studies report only cost estimates. Objective Describe the economic burden of ED visits for patients with non-lifethreatening conditions. Policy Importance Provide decision makers and healthcare administrators with knowledge and tools to guide future ED strategic planning and future research. 11

34 Conclusions & Discussion Visits for non-life-threatening conditions (triage 4-5) represent sizable portion of ED visits. Triage level w/out extra cost w/ extra cost Charges Triage 1-5 $ 2,605 Triage 3 $ 2,875 $ Triage 4-5 $ 951 $ 974 1,006 Payments Received Triage 1-5 $ 471 Triage 3 $ 515 $ Triage 4-5 $ 198 $
35 Conclusions & Discussion TeleHealth infrastructure is becoming more affordable and efficient. Healthcare providers are already using TeleHealth for other purposes. Smartphone/tablet technologies are making access to TeleHealth more affordable. Has the potential to considerably improve healthcare access and quality at small, rural facilities. 35
36 Conclusions & Discussion Reimbursement No consistent pattern for coverage and reimbursement has emerged. Is improving with Medicaid s lead. Social adaptability within and outside healthcare community. Misconceptions: will decrease patient-provider relationship, poor acceptance by patients. 36
37 Limitations ED time not disaggregated by time in wait room and time in treatment room. Not accounting for other economic costs Childcare Meals away from home Escort time and expenses Psychological stress and discomfort 37
38 Next Steps New Study (IRB pending) Perceptions and attitudes towards utilizing TeleHealth for ED Capturing more accurate economic costs Income, wait time, distance traveled, etc. Willingness-to-pay for TeleHealth for ED Mock TeleHealth session for ER visitors 38
