HistoryFounded in 1997 by Internists John Nelson, MD, MHM, of Bellevue, Washington and Winthrop Whitcomb, MD, MHM, of Springfield, Massachusetts, SHM was originally known as the National Association of Inpatient Physicians (NAIP). SHM’s goals include promoting high-quality care for hospitalized patients; advancing education and research in hospital medicine; enhancing medical teamwork to achieve the best care for hospitalized patients; supporting career paths to attract and retain high quality hospitalists; defining competencies, activities and needs of the hospitalist community; and advocating, proposing, and promoting changes to the healthcare system that lead to better care by hospitalists.

JHM focuses on pressing medical issues and healthcare trends that affect hospital medicine and patient care while providing extensive research articles and evidence-based reviews.

These constituencies include academic hospitalists, clinicians-internists,[4] family physicians, pediatricians, hospital medicine group leaders, researchers, clinical educators, nurse practitioners, physician assistants,[5] hospital administrators, and pharmacists. The Society focuses on lifelong learning for all of these.

Relationship with Sanofi-Aventis{{unreferenced section|date=December 2016}}In May 2011, staff of the Senate Finance Committee issued a report concerning Sanofi-Aventis efforts to secure favorable comments from medical societies to the Food and Drug Administration. These comments raised safety concerns about generic equivalents to the Sanofi-Aventis product Lovenox. The report, initiated as a result of an article by Alicia Mundy in the Wall Street Journal, and a physician (Victor Tapson, MD) as having submitted comments as part of the Citizen Petition Process without disclosing in the letter their financial ties to the pharmaceutical. In the case of SHM, those ties amounted to over $2.0M (since 2007) for a variety of uses that included exhibit space, sponsorship and other outreach.
