- Abstract
Current health care climate with its emphasis on reducing costs while maintaining quality and productivity, has challenged managers to redesign administrative processes and structures. The challenge for two units of St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital in Houston, Texas was to achieve quality and financial viability while maintaining staff satisfaction. The Professional Salary Model was piloted on two units and refined along the way to ensure that the model met staff's needs. Evaluation of the program revealed that goals of quality, productivity, financial viability and staff satisfaction were achieved.
