More than 91,000 patients are treated in the Cedars-Sinai Beverly Hills ER each year—around 260 each day. About 35% of those patients are admitted to the hospital for continued treatment, more than twice the rate of a typical community hospital, says Claude Stang, executive director of emergency services.
