HC120-8B: Introduction to Healthcare Management
February 10, 2023
Healthcare administrators are extremely important to Herzing Hospital. The healthcare
managers are in charge of the hospital's overall administration and oversee the effective
and efficient management of the hospital. They also develop and implement policies
and procedures. Another area where healthcare administrators are essential is financial
management where they design and oversee the hospital's budget. In addition,
healthcare managers serve as a point of contact between the hospital and the
community. They form and maintain relationships with local businesses and
organizations.
It is recommended that the positions of Oncology Clinic Manager, Rheumatology Clinic
Manager, and Oncology Billing Manager be eliminated. These jobs can be eliminated
because the duties associated with them may be assigned to other employees.
Employees from the oncology office can manage the clinic, eliminating the need for an
oncology clinic manager. The position of oncology billing manager can be eliminated
since the staff in the oncology office is capable of handling billing. The manager position
for the clinic can be removed because the rheumatology office staff can oversee it.
Other staff members of the organization may take on the duties of the clinic managers
for rheumatology, nephrology, and oncology. The role of oncology clinic manager may
be filled by staff members in the oncology office. The nephrology and rheumatology
clinic manager positions can be taken over by the clinical services director or
administrative staff.
Eliminating these positions will save Herzing Hospital $165,000 a year. The oncology
clinic will be run by the employees of the oncology office and the oncology clinic will be
run by the oncology office staff as well. The rheumatic clinic will be run by the staff of
the rheumatology office. Herzing Hospital will be able to reallocate $165,000 to more
vital sections of the establishment as a repercussion.
