Yeah, you can't also downplay the fact that a lot of the folks who present to the ED with non emergent issues are doing because they DON'T have a medical home/access to a Family Doc.
Not saying Redlan's point isn't valid. It is. Triage is Triage for a reason. But it's a wider issue than just 'stupid people'
edit: also do listed wait times in the AHS app consist of door to bed time AND bed to Doc time, or is door to being seen by the doc. (anyway this probably too inside baseball but number of beds/docs etc is another factor, patient workflows etc)
