We have our employee health combined with our occupational medicine clinic, where we see outside workers comp patients. We do not offer episodic care, purely an occ med clinic.

There is one waiting room, 4 exam rooms, which are used to see everyone, all comers. We have not had any issues with treatment or privacy to date.

Subject: [MCOH-EH] Employee Health Clinic Space

For those of you that work in Employee Health in a hospital have you seen a business model where Employee Health and patients use the same space?

One clinic that checks see’s both patient’s and employees? Same waiting room with one exam room to see patient’s and one exam room to see employees?

Any legal concerns?

Privacy concerns?

Thoughts?

I personally think this model is not ideal, but leadership is behind proposal. I am looking for any evidence that this model is inherently flawed.

Thanks, Erika
