Very few studies identified interventions that primary care physicians could undertake to reduce total cost of care, possibly because relatively few PCCs are held responsible for total cost of care. Evidence-based interventions to reduce ACS admissions and ED use included case-management models, clinical decision-support tools, & care plans integrated into patients' electronic medical records.
