As a relatively new specialty, hospitalist staffing levels are still a bit of a mystery
to many hospital administrators. Get it right and your hospital can benefit
from valuable care coordination in the inpatient units and smooth patient flow
throughout the hospital system. Get it wrong and you could find yourself unable
to retain physicians, with increased lengths of stay or deteriorating core measures
causing patient care to suffer.
Optimized staffing plans can result in improvements in case mix index, reductions
in length of stay and decreases in readmissions. Such potential for impact is worthy
of insightful review.
