Friendly and helpful colleagues make a great team - Patient Care Secretary VITAS Healthcare Employee Review

Great organization structure. significant opportunity to growth for lateral and/or vertical transition. Great compensation for all disciplines if done right, a great work life balance

Initial hiring, orientation is relatively slow may be even boring process. organization values people too much and believes in helping growth of individual so much so that some time slackers are able to survive longer then they should. which can cause loss of motivation for highly driven team members. the way I would survive if I am motivated for the cause is do what is right for you and your patients, apart from that just wait for the right time. Biggest pain point is EMR. this organization is slow to the game but the organization is building and perfecting home built EMR product to have maximum flexibility. currently going through growing pains.

Working as a Coord II Medicare/Medicaid Collections at VITAS has provided me with valuable experience in hospice billing and collections. I've had the opportunity to expand my knowledge of Medicare, Medicaid, managed care, appeals, and claims resolution across multiple states. The team is supportive, and there are continuous opportunities to learn and develop new skills. I appreciate that the work is meaningful because it contributes to ensuring patients receive the hospice services they need.

The workload can be heavy at times, especially when managing multiple payer requirements and tight deadlines. Some processes could be streamlined, and communication between departments can occasionally be improved to help resolve issues more efficiently.
