EMTALA, Medical Screening Exams, and Challenging Patients: Legal and Ethical Considerations for Your Emergency Department (Quality and Patient Safety Interest Group Sponsored) All of us who practice emergency medicine in the US are held accountable to Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA), and we take pride in caring for any patient for any reason at any time, no questions asked. The Emergency Department is both the front door and the safety net of the healthcare system, as established by EMTALA. But when it comes to the nuances of the law and what a βmedical screening examβ entails, combined with the need to emphasize staff physical and psychological safety, there are more questions than answers: Who needs to complete the medical screening exam? What needs to be included? What consent is required in order to perform a medical screening exam, and can any requirements be included with this consent? What are the risks β legal, regulatory, and otherwise β of an inadvertent EMTALA violation? And, perhaps more importantly, what ethical considerations must we take into account? This didactic will outline the background of EMTALA, the law itself, and legal and regulatory implications of violations. Then we will discuss practical considerations for todayβs overcrowded, understaffed EDs. Finally, we will use structured prompts to guide attendees through a brief discussion of the ethical considerations of how we approach challenging patients at triage, in the waiting room, and in other settings prior to their undergoing a full evaluation.
