Hospitalist Medicine Management Services

Hospital Physician Partners provides a full complement of inclusive services as part of our overall Hospitalist Medicine group practice implementation.

Practice Management and Clinical Operations

Hospitalist program management includes a general internal medicine service, episodic consults and response to hospital inpatient codes. Our Hospitalist specialists coordinate referrals, arrange for specialty consultations, perform invasive procedures and will manage inpatient care of all patients in the program. Additionally, Hospital Physician Partners’ Hospitalists will admit surgical cases and upon request of the surgeon, will manage co-morbid medical conditions and non-surgical care.

Medical Leadership

The Medical Director is the key to ensuring the quality and effectiveness of the program. We staff an on-site local Hospitalist Medical Director who is responsible for day-to-day operations. Each Hospital Physician Partners Medical Director actively works clinical shifts, attends medical staff meetings and facilitates communication between Hospital Physician Partners, the physicians, and the hospital.

Recruiting

Hospital Physician Partners recruits and identifies prospective physician and allied health professional job candidates through strategically planned marketing efforts. Recruitment opportunities are assessed based on the type of position, location and recruitment history. There are no “simple shotgun approaches.” Each opening has its own distinct plan and is treated as a separate campaign. Efforts include national, regional and local journal advertising, direct marketing, internet advertising, job-boards, cold-calling, networking and new-media communication such as Facebook, Twitter and Linked-In.

Scheduling

We offer 24/7 live scheduling support. Hospital Physician Partners’ web-based “Staffing Angel” system allows all providers to review and schedule shifts.

Billing and Coding

Hospital Physician Partners provides comprehensive management of all coding, billing and collection of the physician services component of emergency department and hospitalist patient bills through its two affiliated billing companies.

Optimal Billing Solutions, LLC

Caledonia Financial Services, LLC

They help hospitals drive profitability through the effective management of their emergency department billing and accounts receivable process. In addition to these patient billing services, they offer extensive web-based and on-site documentation training for Hospital Physician partner providers.

Risk Management and Quality Initiatives

Early intervention risk management activities designed to prevent or minimize professional liability claims; malpractice insurance provided for contracted physicians.

Hospital Physician Partners’ extensive clinical education and training combined with our hands-on approach and departmental communication processes has led to a rate of frequency of malpractice incidents substantially below national averages.

One of Hospital Physician Partners’ greatest strengths is our strategic marketing and public relations support. We offer support and resources to hospital administration to assist with communication with a number of audiences including hospital medical staff, patients and their families, local communities and EMS.
