Case Studies
Reducing Avoidable Emergency Department Transfers at an Inpatient Behavioral Health Hospital
The Med-X Consulting Team implemented a novel multidisciplinary intervention at a 270 bed behavioral health hospital in North Carolina.
This intervention resulted in a greater than 50% reduction in emergency room (ER) transfers within three months, which equates to an average of $76,800 in direct savings per month for the behavioral health hospital. This reduction has been maintained for over two years.
Boosting Patient Numbers At An Eating Disorders Treatment Program
A specialized eating disorders treatment facility aimed to improve its patient intake processes to increase its average daily census and reduce delays in access to care.
In partnership with Med-X Consulting, the program implemented a series of targeted interventions, leading to a threefold increase in patient admissions and a 25% reduction in patients leaving against medical advice (AMA). Additionally, the referral-to-admission time decreased from 17 days to less than 48 hours, significantly improving patient access and treatment outcomes.
