About ERgent: Emergency Room Locator
ERgent is the premiere ER Wait Time app! We'll help you locate the emergency room (ER) that not only has the shortest "Door to Doctor" time from our curated national database, but a place where you can receive top care as well!
IF YOU ARE HAVING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, PLEASE DIAL 911 IMMEDIATELY.
ERgent is an app that uses your GPS location and combines it with our “Door to Doctor” algorithm to help you locate the hospital with not only the shortest average wait time to see a physician, but also the quality of care and hospital’s specialties. No one wants to sit in an emergency department waiting room, especially when they’re in the middle of their own emergency. ERgent locates hospitals with the best average wait times and factors in Medicare-reported scores in pain control, chest pain symptoms, and neurologic symptoms. ERgent works anywhere in the United States, so whether you’re at home, work, or on vacation, you can get the information you need. At ERgent, our philosophy is simple: Emergencies Shouldn’t Wait.
Here’s how ERgent works:
Closest Emergency Room - Looking for the nearest hospital? This option will use your GPS location to provide you with a list of the closest hospitals nearby, so you can find care, fast.
Shortest Average Wait - Worried about the wait? Use this option to locate emergency departments with the shortest average wait times. This isn't simply how long it takes to get from the waiting area to a room - it's historical data for how long, on average, a patient would wait from signing in to seeing a healthcare provider.
ERgent’s Recommendation – Our “Door to Doctor” algorithm uses your GPS location to offer the hospital with a combination of the best average wait time and highest quality of care. We give you a few others in the area, too, just so you can see all the options.
ERgent's Symptoms:
Head – Have a bad headache that you want to get checked out? These emergency departments have the highest scores in neurologic examinations in your area.
Pain – Sore or think you need an x-ray? These emergency departments have the highest scores in pain control in your area.
Heart – Feeling unwell? These emergency departments have the highest scores in cardiac care in your area.
Search By Location – Looking for a hospital in a different location than where you are currently? Our search option allows you to type in any address in the United States, and our algorithm finds the hospital with the best combination of average wait time and highest quality of care.
If there’s a hospital we’re missing, please let us know at www.ergentapp.com/feedback. Along with that, if you have any questions, comments, if some data seems inaccurate, or anything else, feel free to reach out there as well!
Our main goal at ERgent is to make sure that you never have to worry about where you can get medical care, no matter where you are in the United States. At ERgent, we believe your health is important and your time is valuable, so our philosophy is simple: Emergencies Shouldn’t Wait.
