Beside the organization’s great patient care, certain departments have invested in making poor financial decisions, which are now becoming a hindrance to the organizations profits. In the recent reviews of the organization financial data, the center has given huge discounts to managed care organizations, such as Medicaid/Medicare. When an organization deals with negotiating a set or contracted price for services, the reimbursements for these services are more than likely to be below the organization’s budget standards. The contracted fees set for the reimbursement of the insurance rate where not based on the past medical cost, this could stop the organization from receiving profitable financial growth.

The EHC will need to replace their old outdated equipment with the latest equipment
