The past twenty years hospitalists have been integrating acute care hospitals with the initial goal of decreasing length of stay. As the role of the hospitalist has evolved there has been an increased attention to collaboration with case managers and social workers to ensure not only a decreased length of stay, but compliance to federal and state regulations, as well as following contractual agreements with commercial payers.
Over the years the role of the hospitalist has become more specialized with expansion in to OB, ICU and pediatrics. These various specialized roles will also be discussed.
For these processes to be optimal and best-practice, there must be strong leadership in both the hospitalist group(s) and the case management department.
Some hospitalist groups have not been able to impact hospital outcomes because of the gap of leadership coordination for both the hospitalist group and/or the case management department. Additionally, there are not always hospitalist dashboards to show the outcomes and to allow development of strategies to improve those outcomes not being met.
