You would do your E/M level from the ER physician and then the hospital admit from the hospitalist...

If the same doc is providing both services I would bill the highest level for that DOS. Medicare will only accept one e/m code per DOS from one doc/specialty so I would choose the highest level. For your situation, the Admit code.
