Emergency medicine is truly the “safety net” of our health care system, and the work we do truly makes a difference. We are the front line of health care. ACEP needs to continue its multi-pronged approach to tackle the “four corners” of EM that I define as membership, reimbursement, workforce and ED violence/wellness to sustain the vibrancy of our specialty for colleagues past and present. Together we are stronger, and we must continue to educate future colleagues and the public about the integral role played by BC/BE emergency medicine physicians in every ED. Without us, the safety net will be forever broken, and patients will succumb to a lack of health care and societal resources. What we do matters. I will be your voice in the Boardroom, at the RUC, at the bedside and in the advocacy arena to propel our specialty forward and confront our challenges.
