Abstract

The continuum of emergency medical services for children (EMS-C) is an elaborate interwoven fabric of talent, time, and tithe. To optimize outcomes for children, the efforts of all who participate in their care must be coordinated in a seamless fashion. One of the crucial components of EMS-C is the link between primary care providers (PCP) and emergency medicine (EM) providers: the two are truly interdependent, and on them, their patients are completely dependent. This report examines the relationship between PCP and EM physicians, describes utilization practices in one urban setting, and offers some guidance for future modification of this important link between providers.
