Why now?

Emergency medicine physicians work on the front lines of medicine. You encounter the full spectrum of clinical crises. You balance bedside care with limited resources and ever-increasing expectations. 

ACEP understands that your expertise and experience are your most powerful tools, and that sharing them with other emergency physicians and hospitals can improve patient outcomes across the country.

Which is why ACEP established the Emergency Medicine Data Institute (EMDI), or EMDI. The EMDI puts data and technology to work to elevate the impact and visibility of emergency medicine and physicians to help people live happier, healthier lives.

 

Changing the face of emergency medicine

By harnessing vital data from ACEP’s own clinical registries, and from emergency medicine departments nationwide, the EMDI will bring insight and innovation to improve performance and quality of care and transform practice management.

But our vision for the EMDI doesn’t stop there.

EMDI data metrics will inform future benchmarking and predictive modeling of major health events, helping to shape national health policy and population health management. By owning the collection and usage of emergency medicine data and intelligence, EM physicians will be empowered to win grants for research and innovation, increase personal income and practice profitability, and help define the value of emergency care. Read news on the EMDI and much more from ACEP leaders and volunteers.

The EMDI-CEDR connection

The EMDI is powered by several federal research partnerships, and by member data harnessed from ACEP’s existing clinical registries—primarily, the Clinical Emergency Data Registry, or CEDR.

When you and your practice group participate in CEDR, you help all emergency physicians make swift, smart decisions at the bedside.
