Each year Urgent Matters hosts a meeting at the American College for Emergency Physicians (ACEP) Scientific Assembly. This meeting brings together leaders and innovators in emergency medicine. As health care continues its rapid evolution, it’s never been more important to deploy innovative, team-based approaches that deliver excellence in medical care, excellence in service, and sustainable efficiencies for EM practices. Accordingly, the leadership at Urgent Matters, Philips Blue Jay Consulting and Schumacher Clinical Partners want to support innovation in emergency departments nationwide.

Emergency Care Innovation of the Year Award
The Emergency Care Innovation of the Year Award provides an opportunity for multidisciplinary teams to be acknowledged for their outstanding contributions and also provides a potential platform for disseminating effective solutions to common issues facing the emergency care community. Sustaining, promoting, and improving quality in emergency care requires a team from across departments, the hospital, and community. We are looking for innovations that increase the value of care and improve delivery systems.
Submitted innovations should fit into at least one of the following categories:
- Safety and Quality
- Flow and Efficiency
- Care Coordination
- Patient Experience
- Cost Consciousness
To be eligible for consideration, the innovation must include a measurable assessment of the effectiveness of the intervention. One winning team will be selected. One member of the winning team will receive the honor of presenting their innovation at the Urgent Matters Conference to be held at the American College of Emergency Physicians Scientific Assembly.
Also included:
- Complimentary registration to the Urgent Matters Conference
- Opportunity to meet with Philips Blue Jay Consulting and Schumacher Clinical Partners leadership to assess the possibility of deploying the innovation on a larger scale
- Airfare and one night hotel stay for the team representative.
