What Mayo Clinic Got Right 132 Years Ago: #Doctors on Salary, #Patient at Center. The History of the Mayo Clinic is Very Relevant to Employee #HealthPlans Today. The Founder of the Mayo Clinic, Dr. W. W. Mayo, Believed that #FeeforService Would #Bias the Judgement of Doctors. Therefore, from the Very Beginning, the Mayo Clinic Always Had Its Doctors on #SALARY. The Mayo Clinic Also Has Its #Specialists Coordinate Their Care #AROUND the Patient, Rather Than Having the Patient 'Ping-Pong' from One Specialist to the Next. The Mayo Clinic Believes in the #EarlyAdoption of Scientifically Proven New Techniques and Innovations. Example: The Mayo Clinic Was One of the First Hospitals in America to Adopt Sterile Technique for #Surgery and Dramatically Lowered Operative Infections. The Point: While #Employers Cannot Send Every Health Plan Member to the Mayo Clinic, the Local #Academic Medical Center--that 1) Has Its Doctors on Salary, 2) Coordinates Care with the Patient at the Center and 3) Adopts Scientifically Proven Processes--May Be the Next Best Alternative for Patient Care Over a Local Community Hospital.
