In 2019, BHS was part of a merger that brought Clarion Hospital into its network.Ĭlarion Healthcare System is made up of four affiliates, all located in Clarion, including Clarion Hospital, a 70-bed facility providing 24-hour emergency service among other features. Once complete, the merger will bring two more hospitals into the same network, including Butler Memorial and Clarion hospitals.īutler Memorial Hospital is a 326-bed acute-care facility with a broad range of surgical, medical, emergency and psychiatric services. It will be the only one that is community-based and locally controlled, he said.Įxcela Health is a 578-bed, not-for-profit health system in Westmoreland County that includes three licensed, acute-care hospitals - Excela Frick Hospital in Mount Pleasant, Excela Latrobe Hospital in Latrobe and Excela Westmoreland Hospital in Greensburg.Įxcela Health serves more than 23,000 inpatients and 700,000 outpatients and sees 100,000 emergency visits annually. “We are pleased that this partnership amplifies our ability to provide tertiary care, yet remain physician led and community focused,” DeFurio said.Ĭombined, the new health system would be the third-largest in Western Pennsylvania. Ken DeFurio, president and chief executive officer at BHS, said the move will allow both systems to add and improve clinical offerings and services, improve efficiency, reduce costs and provide higher quality care to patients. In doing so, we can enhance access to care, decrease the cost of care and continue to focus on providing improved experiences and outcomes for patients,” said John Sphon, chief executive officer at Excela.
“We believe strongly that our new partnership will extend our intellectual and financial capital. The boards of trustees of Butler Health System and Excela Health have entered into a “letter of intent” to merge the organizations, according to a news release. File photoīutler Health System is expected to merge with Excela Health, officials from the health systems announced Wednesday. They expect you to always be able to complete documentation when you are with the client and you are not allowed to block time off to complete documentation or other parts of your job without prior approval or unless you are running a group that is more profitable than regular individual sessions.Butler Health System is expected to merge with Excela Health, according to BHS officials. Upper management has unrealistic expectations about productivity as the majority of the population is severely mentally ill and has trouble keeping appointments as well as has clients who are impoverished and have other factors to take into consideration. This is a good position for someone fresh out of college with their Master Degree, however, a poor job for an experienced or mid-level clinician. There is no upward mobility as there are only 2 supervisors positions in behavioral health. The benefits (PTO, health insurance, are FANTASTIC and that alone is work a lot of money) however, there are no incentives for going above and beyond. Family Services at Butler Health System expects you to carry a heavy caseload of clients, decrease no shows and cancelations on your own, without reimbursing you fairly for your hard work.
