Emergency Services

Meriter Emergency Services is open 24 hours a day, every day, to anyone who needs emergency treatment. Emergency Services also features Madison's only accredited Chest Pain Center.


Chest Pain Center

Meriter is proud to have Madison's only accredited Chest Pain Center. People who come to Emergency Services with chest pain receive a rapid clinical assessment to determine if they are having electrocardiogram changes, abnormal lab tests and are having a heart attack that requires them to go directly to the cardiac catheterization lab for speedy treatment.

We admit people with no electrocardiogram changes to Emergency Services, where they undergo a standard set of tests and lab work to uncover the cause of their pain. The goal is to not admit them needlessly, and to not send them home until indications are that they can follow up with their primary care physician or a specialist. On average, 40 patients are treated in the Chest Pain Center each month.
