Who is a Hospitalist?
A Hospitalist is a doctor who specializes in caring for patients while they are in the hospital. Most hospitalists do not have their own outpatient medical practice; so, they can focus all their attention on patients inside the hospital.

Hospitalists work closely with your primary care doctor.
When you are admitted to the hospital, your doctor communicates with the hospitalist about your condition and transfers the management of your care. The hospitalist communicates with your doctor as needed about the plan for your care and how you are progressing. Upon your discharge, the hospitalist will ensure that your medical records will be in your primary care doctor’s hands well before your first follow-up visit. This ensures a smooth transition of the management of your care back to your doctor.

Hospitalists help your regular Doctor be available to you.
Because hospitalists are in the hospital all day, your doctor can be more focused on providing care in his or her office with fewer delays and interruptions. Your primary doctor will be able to devote more time to keeping you and your family healthy.
