The Section of Hospital Medicine plays a critical role in UPMC’s commitment to excellence.
The Section of Hospital Medicine is composed of more than 92 board-certified physicians and 25 Advanced Practice Providers across three hospital medicine programs delivering care within four UPMC Hospitals.
In addition to providing outstanding evidence-based medical care, our Hospitalists are dedicated to patient safety, quality improvement, medical education, and collaborative research efforts. While coordinating both routine and highly specialized care, our Hospitalists excel in navigating the complex inpatient care system, training the next generation of physicians, and are committed to excellent communication with patients and their families.
Division Hospitalists are active in a number of committees throughout UPMC, including the Ethics Committee, Medical Records Committee, Diabetes Management Committee, Pharmacy and Therapeutic Committee, Patient Safety Collaborative, and Risk Management Committee.
UPMC offers a multitude of professional-growth opportunities to its Hospitalists, including leadership positions and important roles in research. In addition, the University of Pittsburgh offers a number of educational options, such as leadership education programs and Master’s degree programs in Medical Education and Clinical Research at its Institute for Clinical Research Education (ICRE).
