At the Emergency Department of Udine General Hospital (Italy) a programme to reduce admissions to the Internal Medicine Department was introduced in 1991. The majority of these admissions come from the Emergency Department, where many people, often without acute conditions, claim medical care. The programme consisted in organizational, professional and economic changes. At the end of 1991, the overall number of admissions to Udine General Hospital, as compared to 1990, decreased by 7.1%, but admissions to the Internal Medicine Department showed an 11.2% reduction. Finally, examinations for internal medical complaints in the emergency ward, not followed by hospitalization, increased by 15.5%. These results showed a reduction in admissions to the Internal Medicine Department greater than previously planned, with an increase in the number of outpatient examinations in the emergency room not followed by admission. Further targets were planned for 1992 to increase the quality of the service.
