  • Title: Delivering health care in a large urban hotel: cost effective, quality care for an underserved and uninsured population.
    Author: Intili H, Laws C.
    Journal: AAOHN J; 2003 Jul; 51(7):306-9. PubMed ID: 12880234.
    Abstract:
    Expansion of an occupational health clinic from registered nurse base to nurse practitioner base where employees can be treated for basic emergent conditions can result in health benefits to underserved and underinsured employees and financial benefits to management. It is essential that the financial benefits of the plan to expand clinical services outweigh the costs, and the savings projections be plausible. Emotional appeals to improve the health and well being of employees are not sufficient or credible in the management arena without financial payback. Expanded clinic services increase employee perception that the company cares for their welfare. This benefit is especially important to underserved and underinsured employees.
