Continuing your care after an ER visit
For some patients, our emergency physicians may recommend a follow-up visit with a specialist after their ER visit. Receiving the proper care after an emergency medical situation is important to monitor your health and facilitate your recovery. If your doctor recommends a follow-up, you may receive a call from a member of our staff to help find a doctor near you and schedule an appointment.
HCA Midwest Health also participates in the CareAssure program, a part of our Care Connect initiative. The goal of this program is to keep our patients healthy by following up with them about test results that may indicate risk for a future health problem. We want to connect you with the treatment you need, before a medical emergency occurs.
