Comparative Study
Measuring patient experiences on hospitalist and teaching services: Patient responses to a 30-day postdischarge questionnaire.
Data comparing patient experiences between general medicine teaching and nonteaching hospitalist services are lacking. ⋯ Patients on a nonteaching hospitalist service rated their overall care slightly better than patients on a general medicine teaching service. Team structure and complexity may play a role in this difference.
