Sutter Health reviews

Thank you for your feedback. We have your heard concerns about salaries not being as competitive in the market. Over the last several months, we have been working with our HR Partners to evaluate compensation and we’re pleased to announce that as of last month, we made adjustments to many non-exempt employees. We feel that this is one way to demonstrate how we listen and respond to our employees. If you have additional feedback that you feel comfortable sharing, I encourage you to connect with me directly or any of the BSD leadership. Sincerely, Fred Quigley, Director, Ambulatory Implementations

Thank you for this feedback. Several years ago, we recognized that there was a need to clearly define career paths within our Business Systems Division. Our intent to define paths was so that our employees didn’t feel that promotions were due to subjective criteria or “favoritism”. We spent a lot of time developing and vetting the BSD Development Competency Map to objectively outline the requirements (technical, project management execution/navigation, communication, managing yourself, developing others, critical thinking, and leadership) so that it is clear how to move from an apprentice (Specialist role) to master (Business Systems Analyst I-IV). If you have not been made aware of this competency map, please talk with your Supervisor/Manager so that we can properly inform you. Also, we agree that everyone should be taken into consideration; to be fair however, the only way for us to know is through open communication. We encourage open dialogue so please feel free to contact me directly if you wish to talk. Best Regards, Suzanne Houlton, Director, Practice Management
