Hospitalists

Unions and Associations

Most hospitalists do not belong to unions, but some may be represented by the Doctors Council SEIU and the Union of American Physicians and Dentists.

The Society of Hospital Medicine is a professional medical society that represents hospitalists in the United States. It offers membership for hospitalists and medical students; publishes The Hospitalist, Journal of Hospital Medicine, and "The Hospital Leader" blog; provides continuing education resources; and hosts an annual conference. Other useful organizations include the American Board of Medical Specialties, American College of Physicians, American Osteopathic Association, American Medical Association, and the American Board of Physician Specialties.
