| MCC will provide substantial value added services to patients and family members: |
  |
"One-stop shop". Admission, recovery, testing, billing in one office. |
  |
Private Rooms. Pleasant, comfortable, and safe environment. |
  |
Lower cost. MCC single service focus reduces costs to patients and insurers. |
  |
Focus on family and patient education. High staffing ratios allow time for focused in -depth cardiovascular and lifestyle educational activities with patients and family. |
  |
Free lodging and transportation. When needed, the facility will pay to transport and/or lodge the patient for one night. |
  |
Hospitality trained staff. We focus on what the patient "wants" from a healthcare experience, not just what they need. |
  |
State of the art technology. New equipment, safety and emergency systems. ACC clinical database and outcome management programs. Telemetry monitoring. Redundant resuscitative equipment in house. |
  |
Highly trained and certified staff. All personnel are BLS, clinical personnel are ACLS certified. All staff are "leveled" by job position and must meet minimum competency standards. |
  |
Physician always available. One of the unique features of this freestanding outpatient lab is the immediate availability of a physician. Because the catherization lab is adjacent to the MHG offices, there will be immediate access to a physician at all times. |
  |
Facility designed to accommodate family as well as patient. It is our contention that the more actively involved a patient, and more importantly the patient's family, is in the course of care, the more likely that course of care is to be successful. |
