Comparison of hospital resource use and outcomes among hospitalists, primary care physicians, and other generalists.
The purpose of this study was to examine differences in the use of health care resources and outcomes among hospitalized patients cared for by hospitalists, their own primary care physicians (PCPs), or other generalists. The investigators found that a PCP's prior experience with a patient may be associated with inpatient use of resources and patient outcomes.
