Yes... your DC will see the on staff pediatrician then.
My ped was not affiliated with the hospital I delivered at and she was seen by the staff ped after deliver and every morning.
I called my ped the day after I gave birth and they had me come in for my first visit the day after we came home from the hospital, so DD was 3 days old when she saw her ped.

We were told that the hospital would provide a pediatrician if we had not chosen one yet. But, that it ran the risk of the hospital pediatrician being out of network with our insurance.

yes there is always a ped at the hospital to check out the baby. my ped wasn't affiliated and the hospital doc took care of her in there and when she was released we went to the ped.

Same here - I was a little worried the doctor would not take our insurance, but I guess he did b/c we didn't get an additional bill.
