Alaska Regional Hospital wants to build a free-standing emergency department in South Anchorage. Some local ER doctors are adamantly opposed.
Alaska Regional Hospital’sto build an $18 million free-standing emergency department in South Anchorage by the end of next year is drawing backlash from a group of emergency room physicians at one of the city’s other major hospitals, who worry the presence of such a facility could drive up health care costs and result in delayed critical care for some patients.
Some emergency department physicians affiliated with Alaska Emergency Medical Associates at Providence Alaska Medical Center are concerned that the proposed facility, if approved, will be able to charge emergency department prices even though it won’t be equipped to treat all emergencies.
