Provider Triage Study

We are studying the triage decision making process of healthcare providers. Our goal is to understand what factors influence the triage decision making process. With the growing burden of emergency department overcrowding and strained hospital capacity, the need to keep patients out of the emergency department is great, when safely able to do so. A better understanding of how and why patients are triaged can help direct work to safely care for patients in the outpatient setting.
