Care Coordination Article: Hackensack’s Pediatric ED Cuts Early Walk-out Rate 82%

Hackensack University Medical Center’s pediatric emergency department has significantly reduced patient-wait times and its left-before-treatment-complete rate through a series of targeted patient-flow improvements.

In 2022, patient volumes hit a record high at the pediatric ED – part of Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital at Hackensack (N.J.) University Medical Center. The waiting room was routinely full, and many lower-acuity children were not getting in front of a provider in a timely manner.

After navigating a sharp spike in pediatric visits during the 2022 virus season, ED leaders conducted a deep dive into their metrics. At the time, the average door-to-provider time was 50 minutes, and the average door-to-bed time was 52 minutes. Additionally, 4.5% of patients left the ED before completing treatment.

Webinar: Driving Revenue Cycle Excellence with AI Cameras in Surgical Areas, June 17

Charge capture errors cost hospitals 1-5% of net revenue – especially when high-dollar implants go undocumented or uncharged.

This webinar will show how AI powered cameras ensure 100% item-level accuracy by automatically documenting implants and consumables at the point of use.

This innovation enables hospitals to achieve real-time revenue integrity and avoid billing delays. Beyond the financial impact, AI-driven automation enhances service line profitability, strengthens value analysis initiatives, and provides the data transparency needed for smarter, more sustainable financial decisions – all while supporting compliance with patient safety regulations.

Following the webinar, attendees can request a customized OR charge capture assessment designed to identify missed revenue opportunities and deliver targeted strategies to enhance revenue cycle performance.

Key takeaways:

  • Learn how to stop revenue leakage from undocumented usage – especially high-cost implants and supplies,
  • Gain full transparency between clinical usage and billing systems,
  • Avoid costly denials and compliance gaps with fully documented implant usage,
  • Eliminate manual r delayed charge capture workflows that slow down billing cycles, and
  • Achieve complete case costing data to strengthen contract negotiations with payers and to provide accurate service line profitability to physicians.
