[MCOH-EH] Academic/MCOH - who pays for OH services for University-employed attendings working in hospital?

[William.Scott]

In my state if your system is not unionized then the entity that is requesting the exam to maintain regulatory compliance is responsible (i.e. Medical Center/ Hospital) for paying.
There may be agreements to help with covering cost between the University and the Medical Center.

Quick poll – apologies if previously addressed. I had no need to pay attention to this issue until recently.

For those of you working in University or Hospital employee health services in settings where the University and the medical center are separate corporate entities, who pays for the employee health services needed by University-employed faculty caring for patients in the medical center? E.g. these:
- preplacement screening
- TB screening
- immunization verification and provision if needed
- respirator clearance, fit testing and training
- blood borne pathogen exposure evaluation, treatment if needed
- annual flu vaccine provision, tracking, enforcement (required)
- COVID vaccine (required)
- FFD coordination (sort of) and referral to EAP
- COVID testing and response, assistance with isolation and quarantine

Thank you!

Marianne
