Background: Hospital medicine is the fastest growing subspecialty within internal medicine, growing from 10,000 hospitalists in 2002 to over 50,000 in 2016. Despite this growth, there remain relatively few hospitalists who are clinician investigators. We sought to quantify the number of clinician investigators, their dedicated time for research at major United States academic medical centers, […]

Background: Preliminary data from the 2018 Clerkship Directors in Internal Medicine (CDIM) survey showed that in about 50% of both academic and community medical centers, medical students rotate directly with attendings (1). This number has increased by 400% from 2010, the last year for which data is available (2). In our institution, hospital medicine (HM) […]

Background: Understanding a hospitalist’s efficiency is important to identify opportunities to provide support and prevent burnout (1). This is key when onboarding new hospitalists, as early intervention can lead to rapid improvement and a long-term sustainable career. The evaluation of hospitalist efficiency can be difficult and is often thought to require close clinical shadowing or […]

Background: Time motion studies are often conducted to describe activities of physicians caring for hospitalized patients with the goal of improving efficiency and patient safety. Prior work has mostly focused on trainees at academic medical centers. However, with the growth of hospital systems, most academic hospitals now have a similar number of patients cared for […]

Background: Unnecessary hospitalizations and testing for syncope remain common (1), and physician attitudes continue to favor overuse for syncope (2). Structured protocols, specialized units, and decision support algorithms may reduce health service use, but lack of data precludes the ability to advocate for use of a specific decision support algorithm (3). Purpose: Our primary aim […]

Background: In the quest to improve patient satisfaction scores, providers and health systems alike are frustrated with the inability to obtain real-time satisfaction data. Indeed, HCAHPS data lags by six months, and makes it exceedingly difficult to provide real-time feedback to physicians on their communication with patients. As a result, we developed a patient-centered audit […]
