Abstract
Hospitalized patients with resident primary care physicians had lower rates of timely postdischarge follow-up, higher rates of readmission, and a lower likelihood of seeing their own provider than did patients with faculty primary care physicians. These findings highlight the challenges facing academic centers for patients with resident primary care physicians.
