Today’s emergency department and inpatient hospital settings create a challenging care environment. Hospitals struggle to meet patient expectations, waiting rooms are crowded, patients leave without being seen, patients are boarding in the emergency department, and clinicians struggle to deliver safe, quality care while documenting appropriately.
