Background/Objectives: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) care depends on rapid, coordinated workflows. This study compared two real-world in-hospital stroke models—a neurohospitalist-led model and a stroke practitioner–led multidisciplinary model—in terms of time metrics, radiological outcomes, and 3-month clinical outcomes in patients undergoing reperfusion therapy. Methods: This retrospective, single-center cohort study evaluated patients across two sequential workflow periods. In the practitioner-l
