Siloam Medical Center Case Analysis

After review of the clinical information provided by Long Island Jewish Medical Center, the Medical Director has denied your admission to Long Island Jewish Medical Center. It was determined that the clinical information did not justify an inpatient stay. Acute inpatient hospitalization was not medically necessary. You were admitted as a one day stay with diagnosis late effects of cerebrovascular accident (stroke), vertigo (dizziness). You are an 88 year old male with a past medical history of thyroid cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged gland) and glaucoma (eye problem) presented to the emergency room with a complaint of dizziness on the date of admission.

One of the major strategic issues, in this case, is the total lack of corporate communication. Viewing internal and external communication as connected functions shifts the focus of corporate communication to answering questions about how an organization can communicate consistently with its many audiences in a way that represents a coherent sense of self pg. 235. During the acquisition period, Sister Mary Theresa had failed to communicate her objectives both internally and externally as she failed to inform the Mt. Mercy board members of her tentative offer. Thus, Auston Transcript article about the acceptance of the verbal offer to MEDICO for the purchase of Abbott Hospital surprised several board members. Immediately following the article,

Richard Veller, the new CFO for Union Medical Center, began to change the operations of their management. Richard Veller looked to change UMC to an industrial system, which meant that the hospital would view cases as products. Just like any ordinary business, these products would have cost objects and would require an accounting system. In order to allocate costs appropriately, UMC was required to organize their cases into Diagnosis Related Groups to create a functional management control system. These changes brought certain internal issues into the spotlight. If solutions are not found, the hospital will not be able to implement their plans.

There does not appear to be any definite case law on the question of whether a motion under K.S.A. 60-241(a)(2) should count as a motion to dismiss for timing purposes. The cases that I am citing are largely not considering the question on point, but instead consider it either any other contexts or in passing. Largely, any argument we make seems to need to be based in either language or the purpose of the rule.

The U.S. Department of Defense has required Brooke Army Medical Center to seek reimbursement for medical procedures conducted on third party insured civilian patients. The need for a professional billing service to effectively acquire third party reimbursement for healthcare services within Brooke Army Medical Center is essential to the financial success of the organization. The hospital is operating in a demanding environment due to a highly regulated healthcare industry and an uneven playing field compared with other local community hospitals. Nearly one-third of the nation’s hospitals demonstrated operating losses in 2014 with Brooke Army Medical Center being no exception. Additionally, uninsured patients are costing U.S. hospitals $900

Coastal Medical Center had a period of growth and success under the previous CEO. When this CEO retired, the successor made many decisions that were detrimental to the organization. The medical center went from a net profit of $52.5 million in 2012, to a net loss of $16 million in 2015. With the hiring of a third CEO, CMC began to identify the many problems the organization was facing. Some of the main problems discovered by the new CEO include over staffing, duplication of functions, and excessive amount of special projects, over spending, poor materials management, and errors in billing. It seemed that every day the CEO was uncovering yet another problem.

MMCC, a Medicaid managed care organization, is located in the low-income community of Baltimore City. It is positioned across from a major medical center that does not provide its services. MMCC seeks to reduce their medical loss ratio (MLRs). As part of their strategy, they enroll poor people of the community through incentives, utilize a distant medical center to provide their services, and cut back on administrative requirements. To get communities members to enroll, they offer turkeys to enrollees during holiday times. They fail to inform members that they must use the medical center across the city and not the one directly across from their location. Once a member of MMCC, the patients experience poor quality care. Operators are limited and cannot keep up with calls to make appointments. Health care delivery site’s parking lot has limited parking spaces. The waiting room has limited seating. The actions of MMCC are legally and ethically questionable.

The Smiren Hospital must use the knowledge of value-driven system to successfully exit from the crisis they are facing. The ED biggest problem is the high flow of patients and the long wait. If they do not use the value- drive system, in other words, if they do not care more for providing exceptional service and satisfying patients, patients would go to another healthcare center where they can find the services they want. This would leave a shortfall in revenue.
