[MCOH-EH] Employee Health Clinic Space

[Sampson, Deborah]

I have worked in a similar model in many situations. As long as medical information is protected, I see no issue.

Sorry for not being clear, hospital patient's and employee patients being seen in the same clinic/space.

Front desk will check in employee's and primary medicine patients  to be seen in same clinic space.

No separation between employees and the patient's the hospital sees.

Not sure what you mean as all our patients are employees or onboarding UCLA personnel and may be injured, onboarding, annual  surveillance, DOT physical, TB or BBP exposure etc. and they wait to be seen in the same area.

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
