Background: Co-management across service lines has become increasingly common in hospital medicine. While debate continues over clinical outcomes, some co-management arrangements have led to enhanced provider satisfaction, which may have implications for burnout. We have established successful co-management services with orthopedics, urology (GU), otorhinolaryngology (ENT), trauma and neurosurgery (NS). We are a large urban/suburban academic […]

Background: Two-thirds of surgical inpatients have at least 2 medical comorbidities, and 14% have six or more. Since 2001, there has been exponential growth of comanagement services, in which hospitalists embedded on surgical services take ownership over medical management. While advanced practice providers (APPs) increasingly manage surgical inpatients, successful comanagement models between hospitalists and APPs […]

Understanding workflow processes for these providers of patient care are key to finding solutions to improve healthcare quality and safety. […]

Background: Previous studies have shown reduced costs and length of hospital with surgical comanagement performed by hospitalists. In Latin America, however, this practice of comanagement is still not standard among surgeons. The Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceição, localized in Southern Brazil, was the pioneer of Hospital Medicine in our country. It is a public, tertiary, […]

Background: Comanagement is a structured collaboration between hospitalists and a surgical service to improve outcomes of surgical patients perioperatively. We identified the potential to improve patient safety and throughput metrics on the Surgical Oncology and Otolaryngology (ENT) services at our institution. We partnered with these two services to create a novel Surgical Oncology Comanagement Service. […]
