e.r. visits have grown thirty two percent in the last decade but there are seven percent fewer emergency rooms from los angeles to chicago to birmingham twenty trauma centers of closings two thousand years ago and what's happening in the city of los angeles and in southern california is ground zero for what we're seeing nationwide with the crisis with large and services. the impatient beds per capita lowest in the country and what we've seen recently is the only real health care system that we have in the city of los angeles is the los angeles fire department because we've become the de facto health care system. this is the canary in the morning of health care throughout the united states and outstanding thank you.

3:40 pm
for doing well with my job where was that it started with any of us company making goods for my folks an hour for about four years five years which a lot of us had to do. i think. our prior code has played an important role in driving down the volume and spirit of fires and because that is the reality that we need is more ambulances. ten years ago with half the analysts is that we have now now we had all of them some medical services in the city of los angeles. from the time you dial nine one one here or just about center the time you get to the hospital it's one service the minute you want to family member to come with you to the hospital we want you to know. that if. you.
3:41 pm

3:42 pm
a room where there's never been room like you know closets hallways there's like a. sardine examining the hallways because it is about three times yes. it's there so there. is her kindness. the problem is not enough inpatient beds not enough urgency department beds and not enough nurses some members that still take care of all the people who work or. we don't have a hospital full of patients no beds up stairs for all patients are equally hard because there's no beds upstairs and we do the best we can we're we can't turn them away. and we have a federal law that mandates that you can't turn no one away because six care in an emergency room. but the reality is is that these people don't have primary care physicians to take the call so you're going to end up in the emergency
3:43 pm
room and i think that if we had a system where everyone had. access to care they would this would not be happening because they were they would call their doctor. to keep the rest this is a very serious risk. but. rather . than bring. in susan within one year. what's worse i know that your breath just me. has been really. good you can play just me through different form or see you as the great thing with your heart just all right right now let's do it with your rhythm i want to make sure. we question but never take any such leniency driving the last

3:49 pm
a lot of times we would get the diabetic and coma who knew something was wrong but didn't have the means to go to the doctor's office again that goes to the problem that there are no primary care facilities in that area. a few years ago the counterargument is that a lot of clinics are open people could go walk in off the street and see clinics in the county a few bad budget years a few years ago they closed those clinics private clinics are going to open up and take under insured patients who can't pay. you don't have papers yes you have papers and just permission how is your sugar level it's one hundred twenty. four no it's four hundred that's very
3:50 pm
bad for your diabetes. so if you had an appointment with a pharmacy a week ago why didn't you go. and i did go. this is this is a free clinic the medicine is free you see me for free so why don't you come this costs money. a lot of the patients here are not compliant they don't want to structure their never raising structure and what the score you know there are a step of the way or. the great. so check your sugar to do three times a week don't use more not every day this is very expensive let's not have insurance but this is where the money needs to go because the primary care why in this diabetic you know failure or a tax cut off you know because if you don't we sit on the streets and then two years later the end of the l.a. county hospital you've got to treat it as
3:51 pm
a cost five hundred thousand dollars. if you miss your next appointment or any other appointment you can find a new clinic oh yes if i miss the appointments i can come back you know when. primary care nationally is a problem and it's an especially a problem here in los angeles county where do you go for primary care physicians first of all the country is not training enough for them.
3:52 pm
so we have a possible candidate for the program. mr mayor has been identified as a great one use this is going to. at least six times within a one year period we want some here for also the care management part of it in order to maybe help her keep where i don't they aren't having to come in ok the singer mrs romero my name is you might it's trial that i work with a program called road to health and to help the patient understand better how to use the medical system there are many. but here you are going to have a case worker who is going to communicate with the often them. ok was there are you were telling me how sometimes you have difficulty making appointments say ok so we
3:53 pm
are going to help you a little bit with that. they call me up but how can i help you know i'm here and they didn't give me this mattson you do have to educate and empower patients to learn how to access care for any and at the same time you can't do that if the system is not set up to be accessible and if you're educating the patient to go down a road where the grade is out and there's a fork in the road that's three different ways going you know which way to go that's not going to be very helpful in our vision is to improve access to care i want to get people access to the right care at the right time at the right place and we need to incentivize pretty high primary care providers are physicians this is your family medicine doctor that you go see for a cold but also the person who is most likely to diagnose you if you have cancer. and you know you have referrals you know but they told me i shouldn't come back without their prescription ok why. because they wouldn't sell it to me that's one thing we need to explain to the page i don't know the field. has five years
