摘要

这项描述性研究通过检查转诊医院、洛杉矶县+南加州大学医学中心（LAC+USC）、，以及在LACJ紧急护理发展前后，转诊医院关闭转诊的小时数。适当利用公共资源是负担过重的县医疗保健系统的一个关键优先事项。实施由急诊医生组成的现场紧急护理，减少了转移到LAC+USC的平均患者人数、每月平均关闭时间和每月平均关闭转移天数，并节省了约200万美元的成本，主要是人员成本。

Reduction in Jail Emergency Department Visits and Closure After Implementation of On-Site Urgent Care

This descriptive study evaluates the impact of implementation of full service on-site urgent care services at the Los Angeles County Jail (LACJ) by examining the number of patients seen at the referral hospital, Los Angeles County + University of Southern California Medical Center (LAC+USC), and the number of hours that the referral hospital was closed to transfers in the periods before and after the development of the LACJ Urgent Care. The appropriate utilization of public resources is a critical priority for an overburdened county medical health care system. Implementing on-site urgent care staffed by emergency physicians led to reductions in the average number of patients transferred to LAC+USC, the average number of monthly closure hours, and the average days per month when closure to transfer occurred, and a cost savings of some $2 million, primarily in personnel costs.
