Interregional transfers for pandemic surges.
Hospital inpatient and intensive care unit (ICU) bed shortfalls may arise due to regional surges in volume. In this study, the investigators sought to determine how interregional transfers could alleviate bed shortfalls during a pandemic, using estimates of past and projected inpatient and ICU cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) from 4 February 2020 to 1 October 2020.
