Hospitalist Program Weekly is a weekly e-mail newsletter focusing on hospitalist management issues, brought to you by Hospitalist Management Advisor.

This informative, free e-newsletter offers Q&A features, news briefs, best practices, and regulatory updates that matter most to lead hospitalists, hospitalist directors, and administrators responsible for establishing or overseeing their facility's hospitalist program.

Roughly 50% of all U.S. hospitals use hospitalists in some capacity, and the field of hospital medicine is growing so rapidly that there are now seven jobs for every hospitalist, according to the Society of Hospital Medicine (SHM).

In addition to the recruiting/retention problems faced as result of these numbers, individuals tasked with starting and/or optimally running a hospitalist program face many other hurdles such as ensuring smooth hospitalist/PCP/specialist relations, maintaining sufficient staffing and scheduling, improving patient care/safety/patient flow, getting financial/other support from the hospital, conducting effective marketing for the program, etc.

With your free subscription, you'll get the latest news on:

• CMS moves toward full severity-adjusted DRG system
• Consider these methods to improve patient flow
• Hospital test results often sent to PCP's office too late
• Study: 250,000 preventable deaths occurred in 2003-2005
• CEO: Hospitals must hire own physicians
