Benefits to You and Your Patients

Patients in the hospital population can be complex and tend to rely on medical staff to complete several activities. Medrina is passionate about ensuring these patients receive the care they need to get back to the lives they love.

Specifically, our Internal Medicine brands, First Docs, IPMGMT and ACHG can take on staffing operations to provide:

  • Increased satisfaction: Personalized care and face time with patients leading to higher satisfaction levels among physicians working in hospitals. Our continuity of care model post-discharge ensures patient needs are met throughout their healthcare journey.
  • Quality Control: Quality is ensured by our In-house Compliance Committee. Our operations team oversees routine audits of billing, coding, and documentation to ensure strict adherence to CMS guidelines and hospital bylaws and best practices.
  • Reduce Readmissions: Third-Party Hospitalist Services provide significant improvements in clinical outcomes, mortality rates, and patient safety metrics. Our Internal Medicine staff are more efficient and effective in treating and coordinating care, leading to more smooth transitions and reducing delays in care, risk of medical errors, and readmissions.
  • Saved costs: Partnering with our Internal Medicine staff allows hospital systems to gain significant cost savings with reduced employed physician salaries, benefits, and the administrative burden relating to support and management. Our involvement has been shown to decrease length of stay and lead to cost savings post-discharge.

Medrina provides physician support throughout the continuum of care, benefitting patients and facilities alike.

FAQ’s About Hospital Medicine

How can hospitals improve care transitions to post-acute settings?

Effective care transitions depend on clear communication of diagnoses, current status, and care goals between the hospital team and the receiving post-acute provider. When the same Internal Medicine group is present in both settings, that handoff gets easier because the physicians already share a care model and the information that matters moves with the patient. Medrina's Internal Medicine physicians work in hospitals and post-acute facilities, supporting smoother discharges and continuity of care after the patient leaves.

What are the benefits of partnering with an Internal Medicine group for hospital coverage?

A dedicated Internal Medicine partner can take on staffing operations and add physician coverage without adding to your administrative workload. That eases the pressure of recruiting hospitalists on a continual basis. Medrina's physicians work alongside your existing medical team to increase physician presence, improve communication, and support patient outcomes. Our in-house Compliance Committee also oversees routine audits of billing, coding, and documentation to keep practice aligned with CMS guidelines and hospital bylaws.

How does Internal Medicine coverage across settings help reduce hospital readmissions?

Readmissions often come from delays in care, communication gaps at discharge, or medical errors that happen as patients move between settings. When Internal Medicine physicians follow patients from the hospital into the post-acute center, they can spot early warning signs and coordinate with the care team sooner. Medrina's presence in both settings is built to support more efficient care coordination, smoother transitions, and fewer avoidable readmissions.

How can hospitals improve patient satisfaction scores through physician partnerships?

Patients tend to rate their experience higher when they get face time with their physician and clear communication about their care and recovery. A physician partner focused on personalized care and consistent patient communication supports the experience patients report, including communication with doctors, which is a core part of HCAHPS. Because Medrina's Internal Medicine physicians also care for patients after discharge, that continuity extends beyond the hospital stay.
