More often they are elderly patients with marginal pluripathology who have associated chronic or terminal illness with their attendant social problems. Nowadays, the majority of patients with the most prevalent diseases fit this profile. Sometimes, in large hospitals, the Department of Internal Medicine has little opportunity to manage specific or defined entities without the 'competition' of other subspecialist colleagues.
