Benefits of Using General Medicine’s Post-Hospitalist/SNFist Program
- Assist facilities with census – referrals of new patients.
- Simplify the process of transitioning patients between inpatient hospitals, post-acute facilities and homebound settings.
- Improve resident health outcomes.
- Frequency of visits and the high visibility of our clinicians provides confidence that patients’ medical needs are addressed immediately.

- Keeping the patient at the level of care that is least costly and risky.
- Eliminating unnecessary health care expenditures via effective management of chronic disease states.
