What is an inpatient? In the most basic sense, this term refers to someone admitted to the hospital to stay overnight, whether briefly or for an extended period of time. Physicians keep these patients at the hospital to monitor them more closely.
The difference between inpatient versus outpatient care matters for patients because it will ultimately affect your eventual bill. Outpatient care involves fees related to the doctor and any tests performed. Inpatient care also includes additional facility-based fees.
Primary care physicians have traditionally been considered outpatient providers, while specialists are thought of as inpatient physicians. But that’s really an oversimplification, particularly when you consider that hospitalists bridge the gap by providing general medical care to inpatients.
