Employees who provide patient care or clinical services to VCU Health
VCU faculty and staff who provide patient care or clinical services to VCU Health
VCU Human Resources requires your continued assistance in identifying VCU faculty and staff who provide patient care or clinical services to VCU Health. Accurate and complete identification of all university employees who work in VCU Health clinical locations in any capacity for any length of time is of critical importance to both VCU and VCU Health for many reasons including
- accurate licensing and credentialing;
- maintenance of required professional education and training;
- billing compliance;
- maintenance of professional liability coverage and;
- security and access to VCU Health physical locations, computer systems and confidential health information.
Who Should Be Included In This Request
Faculty and staff who provide patient care or clinical services are defined* as anyone who provides patient care/clinical services in the hospital, clinics or from another location. Patient care/clinical services include, but are not limited to, the following activities:
- assessment
- counseling
- treatment
- registration
- diagnostic testing
- data collection to determine the patient’s plan of care
*This definition does not include VCU faculty or staff who
- are also paid through MCVP;
- analyze data related to research activity only (data which is not used to determine patient treatment at the time collected); or
- have no other patient care or patient service role specific to the health system but who may need access to health system facilities as part of a service agreement or due to department location.
What You Need to Do
Because the list of employees assigned to these roles can fluctuate with the academic semesters, there is a need to update this information periodically. You can access a list of VCU faculty and staff in your school/area who have been previously identified and who remain active in Banner by going to the VCU Reporting Center and reviewing the “VCU EEs Providing Health Care” report in the Personnel Administrators folder. After a careful review of the report, please follow these steps:
- Verify the individuals currently providing “patient care or clinical services” to the health system. Update the list, as necessary, with new additions and remove the names of individuals who are no longer working in this capacity. If you have questions regarding who should be included, please contact Donna Steigleder, VCUHS Director of Employee Relations, at steigleder@vcuhealth.org.
- By Friday, January 12, 2018, submit the names and V#s of the individuals who should be deleted or added to Brenda Alexander, Employee Relations and Compliance Specialist, at baalexander@vcu.edu.
