AbstractHospitalists: How do they fit in? The hospitalist model of care is expanding in the United States. The model gets "tweaked" to suit the needs of the systems in which it takes hold. Cost and efficiency data notwithstanding, some hospitals implementing a hospitalist model are motivated solely by patient care quality concerns. A hospitalist service can be an amenity for physicians offered by a hospital. Potential hospitalists need to be carefully screened for what is a very demanding job.
