Background: Hospitalists frequently consult medical subspecialists in the management of inpatients. Given the potential impact on health resource utilization, it is important to understand the working relationship between these groups.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey of hospitalists, n = 655, and subspecialists across Ohio (nephrologists and endocrinologists), n = 293, was conducted to investigate perceptions and communication about reasons, timing, and impact of hospital consultations.
