Hospitalist FAQs
What is a hospitalist?
A hospitalist is a medical doctor who specializes in caring for hospitalized patients. Hospitalists are trained in general internal medicine and other medical specialties. Because hospitalists typically so not maintain an outside practice, they can focus their attention on your medical care inside the hospital.
What are the benefits of having a Hospitalist?
Your hospitalist specializes in the kinds of medical conditions that need to be treated in the hospital. Because the hospitalist typically does not have an outside practice, he or she has added knowledge of other departments and specialties and are very accessible to hospital nursing staff. The hospitalists can help to speed your recovery and shorten your hospital stay by following up on tests and adjusting your treatment plan throughout the day. Hospitalists have systems in place to communicate with your family and your primary care doctor as needed, especially at the time of admission and discharge.
