There are several factors that explain this trend. The increasingly pronounced specialization of physicians divides the care among several physicians. Surgeons, forced by the high demand of care and waiting lists, spend more time in the operating room and less in the hospital wards. The population's increased life expectancy has changed the profile of hospitalized patients, which is now that of an elderly patient with high comorbidity and complexity.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1,2</span></a></p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Despite the growing impact and importance of hospital medical interconsultations, a standard model of interconsultation has not been established, and there is no formal training on this issue. Studies have been published proposing a series of general recommendations on how to respond to interconsultations, the approach to requesting tests and the relationship with the physician responsible for the patient. However, the studies have been conducted from the healthcare system perspective, which do not overlap our perspective.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0075"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3,4</span></a> In recent years, the changing reality of our profession and of hospital care is altering the relationship between clinicians and surgeons toward models of shared care, which increases the possibility of collaborative systems and relationships among practitioners.</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In Spain, the participation of internal medicine departments in providing care for patients outside their department is standard in all hospitals. However, in many cases, this activity is discontinuous, poorly assessed and improperly recorded in the performance indicator reports. The available data come from surveys and show a heterogeneous organization among the various hospitals. Thus, the most common work system is the rotational assignment of interconsultations among department physicians (64–69%), work that is additional to the conventional work in 67% of the cases. However, in 15–25% of the internal medicine departments, there are physicians exclusively dedicated to the task of interconsultations.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0085"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5,6</span></a> In most centers, interconsultations are performed without a prior request protocol (94%), and there is only one advanced registry of activity in 8% of the hospitals.

We should not forget that the consultant physician is “invited” by the physician responsible for the patient to collaborate in their clinical care and should therefore respect the terms of this request. In general, surgery departments (especially trauma) are more likely than medical services to request a more active involvement of the consultant internist in terms of ordering tests and prescribing treatment. Nevertheless, in a survey conducted in American hospitals, 70% of specialists who did not want the physician consultant to record treatment orders in their patients’ medical history would accept this degree of autonomy if a verbal discussion of the case was conducted beforehand.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0080"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> In general, with the knowledge and approval of the requesting physician, it is recommended that the consultant internist's approach be active and independent, both in requesting additional tests and in transcribing the treatment orders that are required to respond to the interconsultation.</p></li><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0025"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">2.</span><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The response to the interconsultation should be specific and tied to the motive for the interconsultation, once the conditions of the interconsultation have been established according to the previous point.

This document should record the patient's administrative data, those referencing their medical history, the current disease, the tests and procedures performed during the hospitalization, the clinical judgment, the treatment and the discharge recommendations. However, the degree to which the document is filled out varies among the departments, and new diagnoses are frequently not specified. The problems associated with the reconciliation of the patient's home treatment are often not taken into account.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a> On numerous occasions, the physician consultant's activity fosters these changes in the home treatments or the diagnosis of new diseases. Therefore, it is advisable that consultants collaborate with the department that requested the interconsultation in preparing the hospital discharge report.
