Functions Of A Chief Of Medicine
Dr. Andres Soto, Chief of Hospital Medicine with Baptist Health South Florida, explains a chief of hospital medicine coordinates the care for the patients, making sure they receive the best care they need.
"We have a 24/7 service, 365 days a year, and we need to coordinate that care with specialists and other physicians. It's a lot of coordination of care, we support every initiative our health system has in terms of patient care in the inpatient arena," he says.
