Most hospitals that I have been associated with, always use the "old school" sliding scale. They tend to not give you a very large dose of insulin. I personally think that they would rather keep your blood glucose in the high range rather than low. The only way that I have ever gotten around this is to have my doctor issue specific orders to the staff, that I would take care of my own diabetic needs and they were only to write down the blood glucose readings, carbs eaten, time and the insulin that I used.
