triage team

Emergency assessment group

A triage team is a group responsible for sorting and prioritizing cases based on urgency.

In emergency medicine, triage teams assess patients to determine who needs immediate care versus who can wait: The triage team directed the most critical victims to trauma surgeons.

The term extends to any group that handles intake and prioritization—customer service teams routing complaints, IT teams categorizing bug reports, or editors deciding which submissions merit review.
