Poor communication hinders team collaboration, increases patient readmissions, and may facilitate burnout. Descriptions of inter-provider communications have largely utilized survey data in specialized settings at a single time-point. We sought to characterize in-patient hospital-wide inter-provider communication patterns over a year. […]
