National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey: 2022 Emergency Department Summary Tables

by Christopher Cairns and Kai Kang

About this book

These summary tables describe emergency department visits in the United States during 2022. They use the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey to present nationally representative estimates across hospital, patient and visit characteristics.

An introductory methodological account explains the sample, response rates, collection procedures and standards for presenting estimates. The tables cover reasons for visits, diagnoses, injuries, services and outcomes, with explanatory notes needed to interpret the figures. This complete statistical publication retains all tables and their notes; its subject is the full range of emergency care visits rather than a single disease.
