Summary

This study tested a computer system that gives ER doctors a risk score showing which adult patients might have social needs like trouble with housing, food, or transportation. The goal was to see if this tool helps doctors screen and refer more patients to support services. Over 500,000 ER visits were analyzed, comparing one ER using the tool to others that did not.
