description This brief report contains a description of a contemporary, coordinated new system for ambulance diversions, which was implemented in Edmonton area's Capital Health Region in January 1999. The development of this new system was precipitated by the combination of increasing pressures within the acute care system especially being felt within our emergency departments, and mounting evidence that the existing system for ambulance diversions was ineffectual in providing temporary relief of these pressures. The nature of the previous and the new system are compared and contrasted, and data are included to demonstrate that the new system has led to marked reductions in the number of ambulance diversions experienced regionally.
