My per-diem job is for Westerchester E.M.S. which is owned by the same network as Northern Westchester and White Plains hospital and has a contract with the physician owned group Westchester Medical Group. We do transfers for the hospitals and emergency transfers for the medical group. My volunteer corp and other per diem job bring 911 jobs to Good Samaritan.
I like the idea of physician owned groups but it is hurting the hospitals. Physician owned groups don't have ERs but take away profit centers for the hospitals. We lost a major hospital in NJ and now find NJ based 911 ambulances brining patients across the border to NY hospitals increasing ER workload and increasing the length of an ambulance call.
