ER wait times rise as hospitals rush patients per year
Emergency departments report longer waits from triage to doctor due to growing volumes. In 2008 BRMC and nearby facilities saw 38 000 to 40 000 annual ER visits, with June averages around 43 minutes from triage to physician and some patients waiting two to three hours when beds are full. Hospitals cite fewer ERs nationwide and shifts toward hospitalists as contributing factors.
