You can request that....I don't agree that you only see a NP or PA following a hospital stay neither. This hasn't happened with my spouse. I prefer my NP as I saw her prior to TVH and followed her. She knows me and my issues. Most of the folks complaining, I will agree with the OP that stated this---are doing so because they carried ins. here from their employer or spouse's ins. and didn't want to change that. That's fine but it's not a reflection on TVH. What changed was an ins. issue and not anything to do locally. Stuff is changing nationally....so far we're happy to be here and it's been great to have our records following us if we see a specialist etc. Also the hospital can access them as well and you don't have to fill out MORE paperwork. You might if you continue seeing doctor's outside.
