A failure to communicate: a qualitative exploration of care coordination between hospitalists and primary care providers around patient hospitalizations.
The purpose of this study was to understand the challenges in coordination of care, as well as potential solutions, from the perspective of hospitalists and PCPs in North Carolina. Hospitalists and PCPs were found to encounter similar care coordination challenges, including (1) lack of time, (2) difficulty reaching other clinicians, and (3) lack of personal relationships with other clinicians.
