Time Magazine and ACEP Bash Urgent Care
(04/13/2011)

Incredible! The ED is now the best place for the treatment of minor medical problems. Can you believe it? Time Magazine published an editorial by two doctors promoting the use of hospital emergency departments as a great place for treatment of minor medical problems. Even more amazing, this viewpoint is part of a "campaign" by the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) to discourage insurers from designing patient educational programs to promote urgent care over the hospital emergency department.

David Stern, MD has written a timely rebuttal: "ACEP Attacks Urgent Care."

Urgent Care News encourages you to read the rebuttal and post your comments to let the world know the real story.
