Turd Sandwich or PBJ?

The "NEW" model of healthcare delivery, at least in the USA is allegedly based on customer satisfaction's relationship with pay for service.  The short version is basically your scores go down and the money from the Gubment goes down.  While I will never profess to know everything, I do know the quick way to ruin.  If you're spending more than you're making...but this is not the only issue at hand.  When one cuts from one side of the column then one must cut from the other.  In my case, this means that management must make cuts to/from the workforce.  The short version of this is that your experienced people will leave.  This is the daily occurrence I meet in the halls.  It's not just nursing staff but CA's, techs, etc.  Need your nurse, call an administrator.

It's really that scary kind of funny, you know when you can see the train wreck coming and everyone else is still worried about what shoes they are going to wear.  We are supposed to do our jobs faster, more efficiently with fewer people and know that we can take comfort in the company's mission when we lose our jobs or breakdown from stress.  The saying goes, you can call a shit sandwich a peanut butter and jelly sandwich but would you take a bite?  It would be such an easy fix were I able to do so.  All that needs to be done is to first, get off the Gubment tit.  Quit taking their money!  Second, make every facility identical in operation.  Third would be to name three facilities to handle charity and the rest as for profit.  Last would be fire two-thirds of Executive Leadership and their minion.  Problem solved, you funnel the no pay, slow pay customers into a select few locations, make it so anyone can go to any location seamlessly and function and lastly cut the bureaucratic bullshit spewing money leaches that do nothing to produce.   As none of this will happen I will eject, eject, eject.

It's been several days of not really hearing from the Tick.  Evidently they have not been paying anything towards past educational debt as I am getting messages asking for a call.  Well, I guess I was right when I said that the money loaned by the spouse was really a gift.  January is fast approaching, I do hope they have a plan, money and a parachute.
