Marquette, MI – August 7, 2024 – This year’s “Knowledge Makes a Difference” campaign is underway by Upper Peninsula Health Plan.
Schroderus said the campaign is organized by Upper Peninsula Health Group in collaboration with Upper Peninsula Health Plan.
They have partnered with primary care and specialty care providers across the U.P. to highlight the importance of making informed decisions when seeking medical care.
Schroderus explained that after seeing increases in Emergency Room use for non-emergent health conditions, the campaign was developed to focus on educating the community regarding utilizing the ER appropriately.
She outlined some key things to consider to help make an informed decision on where to go first if someone is not sure, and when to choose to go to the Urgent Care or the ER.
Shroderus said the goal of the campaign is to make sure patients receive the right care, in the right place, at the right time.
