Rural Emergency hospitals › Arkansas
Arkansas has 5 Rural Emergency Hospitals. 5 of them have an emergency department.
Rural Emergency Hospital is the newest Medicare hospital designation, available since 2023. These are rural hospitals that have stopped admitting inpatients and now provide emergency and outpatient care only. For a patient it means a real emergency department is still open locally, but an admission will mean a transfer elsewhere. The category is small and growing, and most directories have not caught up with it.
