Taken from the 'MARVEL'S TRANSFORMERS UNIVERSE PROFILE'....
- Profile: Everybody must submit to his maintenance schedule, even Optimus Prime, and no excuse is ever good enough for Hoist. And he has a good reason for being so strict: even though his job usually keeps him away from the front lines, he knows how important it is that all the Autobot warriors are operating at peak eflficiency when they engage in battle. He genuinely enjoys his job, as indicated by the jovial manner in which he performs it. And he's good at his job, too; whether the problem is a full engine overhaul or the smallest leaky gasket, his comrades are confident that Hoist will find it. -
More updated profiles say basically the same thing and even mention his construction and engineering skills, but nothing about fixing wounded Autobots. So does he actually fix Autobots or does he just find possible problems and then send them to Ratchet?

Perhaps he is a problem finder and if it's beyond his means, Ratchet would have to oversee things whereas if it's a simple thing (Like a leaky gasket) he would be able to deal with it. If we're talking like Earth medical fields, perhaps he's a consultant?!

Huh, I could have sworn I posted a reply here.
On Hoist's TFWiki page, it says if Ratchet is seen as the ER Doctor who deals with wounded from the battlefields, then Hoist would be the equivalent of the family GP. Got a nasty burr in the rotator cuff, go see Hoist. Carrying your own legs, go see Ratchet.

I hate to but in (not sure if i can) but if memory serves right (and it has been a while) in the comcis books i can reamber Hoist could do some of the repair work as Ratchet and also has better bed manner.
I mean if you had a choice for an medical emergency would you rather have 1.a veteran autobot that bed manner would be a described as "a cranky grizzly bear covered in oil and barbs".
Or 2. A vertan autobot that split off did his own thing and lateral alt mode is tow truck and has a " i got this" bed manner.

Maybe Hoist refined his skill as time went on? XD
