What Our Clients Say

What Our Client Hospitals Say About Us. 

July 17, 2013

It is my pleasure to share my thoughts on our experience with the Hospital Care Group.  Cameron established a hospitalist program with HCG in October 2012.  I have personally know and worked with the group since November of 2012.

The physicians and executive leadership of HCG are clearly dedicated to providing the highest quality care. They quickly became part of the Cameron team and demonstrate the Cameron Guiding Principles and Values.

Since beginning the program we have experienced more consistent round the clock services, quicker response to unexpected medical situations, and more efficient management of patient care.

HCG is highly regarded by our primary care, Emergency department and community physicians.

I especially appreciate the attention to both clinical and service quality indicators.  I feel that the leadership, physicians, and nurse practitioners of HCG are truly partners with Cameron in providing the best care possible to those we serve.

We are highly satisfied with HCG and look forward to a continued and positive partnership with them.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions.

Will we get a dedicated hospitalist at our facility?

Yes!  We design our programs so you will have a dedicated team of physicians and N.P./PAs who will be primarily responsible for covering your hospital's hospitalist program.

What is the nighttime coverage model?

We have experienced N.P./PAs working nights, which are backed up by the physician who provided the daytime coverage.  That physician is also able to come in at night for patient emergencies or urgent situations.

Can we reduce the cost of our hospitalist program without negatively impacting coverage and quality?

Definitely!  We have pioneered several solutions that reduce your program costs while still providing complete coverage and great care. Solutions such as internal recruitment, shared-programs, joint-programs, NP/PA nighttime coverage, and tiered-pricing, all reduce program costs.

How quickly can you implement a hospitalist program?

Very fast!  But there are many factors that play a role in how quickly.  Variables such as recruitment time, licensing time, privileging time, and relocation time, all can add time to a "go live" date.  That is why we highly recommend beginning the process well in advance of your desired start date to allow enough time for these variables.

Will we get high-quality physicians?

Absolutely!  One advantage we have is we are a physician-owned company where physicians whom we employ, have the opportunity to become partners in the company. Plus, our attractive salaries and work/life balance attract outstanding physicians to us.

How responsive to nursing calls are your hospitalists?

Extremely responsive!  We have a policy, and put it in writing in all our contracts, that our clinical staff will respond within 15 minutes.

What is your track record implementing and running hospitalist programs?

Outstanding!  Every one of our client hospitals can speak to how thrilled they are with our services.

What makes Hospital Care Group different from other hospitalist companies?

  1. Our intense focus on creating solutions that produce excellent results!
  2. Our innovation and ability to "tailor-fit" a hospitalist program to your needs.
