Default A question abou the concept

Since I have not seen it mentioned in the newspaper or, in TOTV threads, I am wondering if this concept is employed elsewhere, if a patient who establishes a relationship with one of these Marcus Welby-like physicians, is hospitalized, does the same doctor still see the patient in hospital, re-hab facility, nursing home? Or is patient care turned over to hospitalist in addition to specialist needed for treatment?
