Understanding Emergency Department Utilization Patterns in Illinois
Description:
Syndromic surveillance has been widely implemented for the collection of Emergency Department (ED) data. EDs may be the only option for seeking care in underserved areas, but they do not represent population-based measures. This analysis provides insight on health-seeking behaviors within the context of the type of care sought.
Objective:
To analyze differences in utilization of Emergency Departments for primary care sensitive conditions by facility and by patient ZIP code.
