You think that emergency room doctors go home to wait between patients?
On call docs (the ones that would be coming to the hospital) are the specialists that other doctors call to assist after the emergent issue is handled. A 6 minute worst case scenario drive time is perfectly acceptable.
There are hospitals in the states where it will take you longer than 6 minutes to walk to the ED from another location in the hospital after getting paged.

This might be true in larger hospitals, but I have personal experience in small towns where, yes, someone will get called in to handle an emergency.
