Is that happening? If I show up with a life threatening situation or emergency, am I not going to be accommodated?

Blount said the biggest place that patients are turned away is in the ICU because of the special skill set that is required to work in that department and also the limited number of patients that can be cared for at a time because of the acuity level.

In efforts to find other beds for ICU patients, local hospitals have had to look well beyond Mid-Missouri to find an ICU bed for someone. Blount said sometimes this means St. Louis or Kansas City, but depending on their occupancy, other times this has meant Illinois, Iowa or Kansas.

Like other hospitals in the Kansas City region, the University of Kansas Health System is turning down transfer patients because its beds are full, setting up a potential crisis, its chief medical officer said Wednesday.
