Identifying Primary Care Providers and Notifying Them Upon Admission of Their Patients to New York-Presbyterian Hospital

New York-Presbyterian Hospital has created a system that notifies its primary care providers
whenever their patients are admitted to the hospital. In this study, the investigators want
to evaluate how accurate this system is and how it is affecting the primary providers and
their health care delivery.

The investigators will interview the participating providers to understand if they were
aware of the admission of their patients, and how they want to get involved in the care of
that patient while he/she is in hospital. The investigators will also look at the data in
the Electronic Health Record system to understand how providers are acting in response to
the notifications.

Lastly, the investigators will determine if the notifications have resulted in any change in
the care of the patients, specifically in terms of the number of days from discharge until
the next clinic visit.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Primary Care Provider at the New York Presbyterian.

Exclusion Criteria:

- No clinic rotation during the study period
