Mission Health reviews

Once in, and once you have experience, there is no where else to go even if you wanted to. That is not Mission's fault. So you are stuck dealing with all the BS of a largish health care system. Management is delusional about what goes on in the department. Provider enrollment can't keep pace with the new provider new hires, but those providers are STILL being asked to see patients which means write-offs. We can't bill it. Understaffed billing which means write-offs due to timely filing. Too many Medicare/Medicaids. Self-pay patients walk in and out paying nothing because no one asks for payment. Write-offs and more write-offs. Money is bleeding out the back door and no one sees it. Dr. P (CEO) claims we have to lay people off in order to get our operating margin in line but he is seemingly clueless about the legitimate money we are owed that is getting written off because other departments are not doing the job or being managed and because no one will go after the money. Yet, we STILL continue to see those patients. It's a monetary bleeding mess on the back end.

The company is trying to cut back in response to funding cuts from the state and the ACA. However, they're trying to do that while also expanding the system. This means hiring is slower than Christmas, leaving units grossly understaffed. The bedside staff are expected to pick up the slack while HR takes months and months to just fill one CNA slot. The actual hospital staff is miserable throughout the hospital, while management pats itself on the back for cutting out "fluff". "Fluff" apparently translates as physical therapists cut from an already understaffed PT team or Case Managers and Educators let go, slowing both the patient discharge process and the new hire process.
