A Study to Determine the Need to Improve the Existing Employee Benefit Program at St. Vincent Hospital, Indianapolis, Indiana

Abstract

The objective of this study was to review the employee benefit program at St. Vincent Hospital, Indianapolis, Indiana, and to identify opportunities to improve the existing program. The approach to the problem consisted of: (1) a review of local economic factors affecting the labor market; (2) a review of the hospitals employee benefit program; (3) a comparison of this program with those offered by various business and industrial firms within the city; and (4) an exhaustive review of the literature. The study concluded that the hospital should provide a long-term disability benefit for nonexempt employees in view of the hospital managements desire to keep their benefit program competitive. The investigator has presented a model program based on data recorded for approximately one-third of the employees. The addition of this benefit would serve to make the entire program at St. Vincent Hospital highly competitive.
