High Blood Pressure

New onset (or old) tightness in the chest with transient/irregular HR merits E/R assessment in our practice.

IMHO, I doubt the ER would admit the OP, but they might just let her have a seat and monitor blood pressure and heart rate. Admittance comes with a $2000-$5000 bill.

Nothing to do with admitting her, but placing her on telemetry for a short time, doing a 12-lead EKG and possibly a stress test could rule in or out a causal/related conditon. One is admitted through the E/R, not to it.
We would not just let her take a seat and do just B/P & HR check. These would be the first in a series of assessments.
