Not necessarily and this is something the article doesn't even bring up. While people are triaged before seeing the ER doc, the ER doc's job itself is to triage and determine whether the patient needs to be further worked up in the hospital or outpatient. Often times an ER doc may not have a clue about the diagnosis but the critical thing to be correct about is if the patient needs to stay to get worked up. They give an example about docs who think a clot is due to an anticoagulant when the AI thought it might be due to lupus. The ER doc's concern is that the patient be observed/admitted and the internal medicine team would likely make that catch (or the rheumatologist).

Vs 40-45% by doctors.

So what we need are both working at the same time.
