CASE STUDY: Avoid System Leakage and Decrease Door-to-Doc Time with Rapid Clinical Examination |
Memorial Health shares how it replaced the traditional Emergency Room triage system with the new Rapid Clinical Examination
(RCE) model, allowing the physician to move closer to the front end of the process to enable more efficient treatment decisions.
Learn how Memorial Health successfully decreased mean non-admit length of stay (LOS) by 21% and the mean door-to-doc
time by 38% in the first year. During this session you will:
- Understand the structure and functionality of the RCE model for reducing door-to-doc time and non-admit patient length of
stay
- Learn how to gain physician buy-in and staff satisfaction with the new model
- Hear recommendations for successful implementation and refinement of RCE at your organization

Re-Engineering the Patient Experience: Evaluating the Future of Triage |
As hospitals focus on reducing door-to-doc times to minimize patient waiting times in the Emergency Department, will the
triage system become obsolete? Discuss where the future of the system is headed and hear Cambridge Health Alliance’s unique
approach to:
- Decompressing the Emergency Department to improve the total patient experience
- Eliminating triage while maintaining efficiency
- Reducing the left-without-being-seen rate by bringing the patient inside the hospital
