AbstractAs of Jan. 10, 2001, Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act regulations apply to hospital outpatient facilities. Staff at these locations must provide anyone with a potential emergency condition with a medical screening exam and stabilization, and, if necessary, must transfer the patient. The ED is responsible for helping remote site staff provide good patient care and comply with EMTALA. Remote sites cannot delay treatment for an EMTALA-related service by collecting copays.
