Abstract

Throughout the United States, the post-COVID-19 pandemic period has been marked by profound disruption to health care operations, coordination, and care capacity. These disruptions have been especially serious in the emergency room (ER) setting. While intensely challenging, the post-pandemic period has also presented opportunities for health care systems to approach classic challenges facing the ER with fresh eyes. In this editorial, the authors discuss key strategies being used to help revitalize ERs nationally and reflect on future challenges and directions.
