Committee opinion no. 459: the obstetric-gynecologic hospitalist.
The work models for the obstetric-gynecologic hospitalist and the obstetric laborist are gaining popularity and momentum in hospitals across the nation. These models could be timely solutions to the challenging demands of the general practice of obstetrics and gynecology. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists supports the continued development of the obstetric-gynecologic hospitalist model as one potential solution to achieving increased professional and patient satisfaction while maintaining safe and effective care across delivery settings.
