Hospital medicine in US is the discipline that deals with the medical care of acutely ill hospitalized patients. Physicians whose major professional focus is hospital medicine are called hospitalists; this type of medical practice has moved beyond the US into Canada. The practical impact of the hospitalist is to act as transition coordinator and case manager, owing to the enormous growth in medical knowledge and resultant number of medical specialists. The term hospitalist was first coined by Robert Wachter and Lee Goldman in 1996. Hospitalist activities may include taking care of patients, teaching, research and leadership related to hospital care.
