The hospital employs over 1,500 employees, 250 volunteers, and 190 physicians/allied health professionals. KRMC provides a full range of health and wellness services, including a wellness and fitness center, primary and specialty care physician practices, advanced medical programs in cardiology, cancer, rehabilitation, and home health and hospice care. KRMC also serves as a teaching hospital in affiliation with Midwestern University to train doctors specializing in family practice and emergency medicine. KRMC CEO, Brian Turney, has been in the community for 27 years and has spent 17 of those years as CEO. As of 2011, KRMC became an official member of the Mayo Clinic Care Network, which allows access to Mayo Clinic expertise and resources. 65 Enterprise Suite 250 * Aliso Viejo, CA 92656 (800) 741‐7629 * (714) 549‐8869 fax * www.pacificcompanies.com Prepared by Ernie Campos (800) 741‐7629 ecampos@pacificcompanies.com KRMC Mission Statement: Serving Our Community with Compassion and Commitment KRMC Vision Statement: Our vision is to provide the region's best clinical care and patient service through an environment that fosters respect for others and pride in performance.

She came to town in 2008 to fill the need in the community due to the retirement of Dr. Waldemar Klimach. Dr. Brown was previously the sole urologist in a multi-specialty group at the Fairmont Medical Center, which is part of the Mayo Health System in Fairmont, Minnesota; she also served as Chief of Surgery at Fairmont. There is currently a three-month waiting period to see Dr. Brown in clinic and the goal is to reduce that wait to two weeks. Dr. Brown is doing bread and butter urology, seeing about 28-32 patients a day in clinic; she is not very aggressive in the OR, so a lot of the cases get referred out to Phoenix and Las Vegas. On Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, Dr. Brown comes in at 8am and works until noon, takes a lunch break, then heads back to the office at 12:45 and the last patient is schedule at 3:45pm. On Wednesdays and every other Friday, she has scheduled OR time from 7:30am to noon, then back to the office at 12:45 and sees her last patient at 3:45pm. We are looking for an additional urologist to become an employee of KRMC. This individual should be hard-working and willing to build a program that will best suit the need of the hospital and the community. This is a general urology position, but has plenty of opportunity to subspecialize; there is especially a need for someone who has an interest in prostate work. The intensivists, radiologists, radiation oncologist, COO, CFO, general surgeon and other staff all agree that the market is wide open. Dr. Van Tuyl (radiation oncology) estimates that a urologist can build a practice to be about 70% outpatient and 30% inpatient. We currently have locum tenens coverage through Dr. Sweeney; his assignment ends on October 8th of this year and there will be another locum tenens provider joining in September of this year. Dr. Sweeney has an OR block time every Monday morning, and every other Friday morning. He has been a bit more aggressive in the OR and has done procedures that the hospital has not seen 65 Enterprise Suite 250 * Aliso Viejo, CA 92656 (800) 741‐7629 * (714) 549‐8869 fax * www.pacificcompanies.com Prepared by Ernie Campos (800) 741‐7629 ecampos@pacificcompanies.com done in four years. Dr. Sweeney basically has a full-time practice, which would be the case for our new urologist on day one. Call Schedule and OR Time There is a contractual obligation to take at least five days of call, for which there is no additional pay; you will receive a stipend once you reach seven or more days of call. Responsibilities include ER call and being available for consults. There is currently no weekend coverage and very limited in-patient coverage. When a patient presents in the ED, you will get called for a consult; if you determine the case to be serious and requires immediate attention, you will come to the ED and attend to the patient. If it is then determined that the patient needs immediate surgery, you can call Bridgette to try and schedule for an OR. She will let you know if there is an OR available, and if not then she will try and schedule as soon as possible depending on availability. Usually, if a surgery is not scheduled three days before the block schedule, then permission is required. The OB/GYN is typically scheduled in the OR on Wednesdays, but if there are no additional surgeries, the slots will be given away where needed. KRMC has five ORs and there is a dedicated after-hours oncall team that will be ready to go at all times. Stacy McDaniel, Director of Surgical Specialties, makes herself very available and is willing to work with surgeons to work out the best OR schedule. First Case of the Day The first case of the day will present at 6:15am to check-in, get dressed, start IVs, and have the anesthesiologist consult; the patient will be ready to go under by 7:30am. There is one anesthesiologist scheduled at all times, and anesthesiologists’ schedules are made to complement the surgery schedule. Pre-Op Patients Patients will be contacted prior to the surgery for a work-up; the hospital is currently working on a pre-op clinic that is projected to be up and running by August of 2013. All operative cases will utilize the clinic, except OB/GYN and Cardiology since they do a lot of their own pre-ops. Competition The competition is somewhat limited; the closest urologists are situated in Bull Head City and Lake Havasu. Bull Head City is about 30-40 minutes west and Lake Havasu is about an hour southwest. http://www.warmc.com/pages/home.aspx - Western Arizona Regional Medical Center (Bull Head City, AZ) http://www.havasuregional.com/ - Havasu Regional Medical Center (Lake Havasu, AZ) 65 Enterprise Suite 250 * Aliso Viejo, CA 92656 (800) 741‐7629 * (714) 549‐8869 fax * www.pacificcompanies.com Prepared by Ernie Campos (800) 741‐7629 ecampos@pacificcompanies.com Anesthesiology We have a team of employed anesthesiologists, and also get locum tenens coverage.

There is one GI in town, Dr. Carol Lee-Collins, but she is new to the area and is in the process of developing her practice; KRMC is also in the process of building new GI suites. Dr. Lee-Collins joined KRMC on July 10, 2013. The general surgeons are very supportive and would like the addition of a urologist who can make themselves more available. Our general surgeons share a call schedule of 1:4, which includes seven straight days of call; five weekdays and a weekend. If one goes on vacation or something comes up, they have a very good relationship and can easily alter the call schedule to best accommodate everyone.

On average, our patients spend two hours less in the waiting room than the four and half hour Arizona average. The number of daily visits to the ED continues to grow and patient-satisfaction scores consistently rank the quality of our care among the top 20% of hospital EDs nationwide. The ED is staffed 24-hours-a-day with skilled and experienced emergency physicians, physician assistants and nurses; all of our emergency healthcare professionals are certified in advanced ACLS and in PALS. The ED sees about 45,000 visits per year, serving an estimated population of 80,000 in northwestern Arizona, which includes the city of Kingman and many outlying small communities. Due to location, the ED also serves a significant number of tourists and travelers. Jeremy Barnes, D.O.

He is originally from Arizona and always knew that he wanted to come back, so he started researching opportunities near Phoenix. He eventually came across the position in Kingman and decided to interview. He was made aware that he would have the opportunity to build the program his way with full support from the hospital, which is what sealed the deal. After a year of practicing in Kingman, Dr. Matheny realized that he was going to need help so he recruited his colleague, Dr. Nguyen; Dr. Nguyen came to Kingman straight out of fellowship and has been here for nearly seven years. Dr. Matheny is a member of the KHI executive board. 65 Enterprise Suite 250 * Aliso Viejo, CA 92656 (800) 741‐7629 * (714) 549‐8869 fax * www.pacificcompanies.com Prepared by Ernie Campos (800) 741‐7629 ecampos@pacificcompanies.com We have a 17-bed ICU, which has officially become a closed ICU. Although it is closed, Dr. Capriles (general surgery) stated that the intensivists will allow you to check on your patients if necessary. When a patient presents in the ER, the emergency physician will admit if the patient is not in need of CCM; if the emergency physician determines that the patient needs CCM then the intensivist will admit the patient. The ICU is run by four intensivists, one of whom is a board certified Anesthesiologist/CCM, and is also working with cardiothoracic surgery. They have a very friendly, collegial work environment and have developed a schedule that satisfies everyone in their group. They work a 7-on/7-off schedule that usually goes from Thursday-Thursday. If you plan on scheduling an inpatient surgery, our intensivists are more than willing to manage the patient. Dr. Sweeney has grown accustom to planning ahead and contacting our intensivists to give them a heads-up, which they really appreciate. ICU Call Schedule Provider #1: Designated on-call provider Covers the ICU for seven straight days In-house from 7am-4pm, but available all day Provider #2: Designated to the office Monday-Thursday Gets a three-day weekend and no call coverage Providers #3: Sees patients at the office in the morning, works Monday-Thursday Sees patients outside of the ICU at the hospital No call coverage If provider #1 gets overwhelmed, his colleagues have no problem leaving the clinic for a couple of hours to assists him in the ICU. Once the fourth provider joins the group full-time, he will be added to the rotations.

The hospital has made a big commitment to oncology; he has seen about 232 new cancer patients during his first year. Dr. Van Tuyl has 23-24 patients under treatment, and with the addition of another urologist he could expect to increase those numbers into the low to mid 30s. He is averaging eight consults a week, but sees that number potentially increasing to 10-12 with more referrals from the urology service. One third of his practice should be prostate cancer patients, but he rarely sees referrals from Dr. Brown. Dr. Brown’s patients are aware of the risks that come from radiation oncology, so they tend to prefer the surgical option or to simply monitor the cancer. Dr. Van Tuyl has a strong relationship with his colleagues at the Mayo Clinic; he has weekly video conferences where they present and collaborate on unique cases. Dr. Van Tuyl stated that he has seen more cancer in the last year than he had in the previous eight years of practice. He has come across very unique tumors, which he had never seen before in his career. In the past, he has brought guest speakers to visit KRMC; one of those being a surgical oncologist, and has an expert on Leukemia scheduled to speak at the hospital. We do not have a prostate seed implant program, but Dr. Van Tuyl has built two programs in the past and is willing to build a third with the support from our new urologist. KRMC is the in the process of hiring a physicist, which will be followed by a dosimetrist. We will be upgrading to a new Elkta Linear Accelerator in 2014. “If you have the desire and energy to build a program, it’s pretty easy to do so.” ~ Dr. Michael Van Tuyl Conversation with the Chief Operating Office, Ryan Kennedy Mr. Kennedy became COO six and a half years ago; we interviewed him regarding the hospital’s visions and the need to improve the urology service line. “The board has recently adopted the Physician Leadership Committee (PLC) as a board committee. We are looking for a urologist to develop something very special. We need someone who is value-driven and willing to take on a leadership role that will improve the quality of care. Urology plays a huge role in the diagnostic services and radiation oncology is currently disappointed with the lack of support from urology…This individual will have every opportunity to have us build a program around him/her.” ~ Ryan Kennedy, COO KRMC is the only not-for-profit hospital in the county and has become the regional player in northwestern Arizona. Financially, KRMC is debt $10M on a short-term finance due to the acquisition of Hualapai Mountain Medical Center; the debt will be paid off in three years. All projects are funded through operations and reserved and KRMC has 115 days cash on hand. Hualapai Mountain Medical Center Hualapai Mountain Medical Center was purchased by KRMC in 2011. The medical center was initially opened by a few physicians out of Phoenix, but after two years they filed for bankruptcy. KRMC purchased the medical center for 1/3 of the original cost, fully equipped.

On June 24th, KRMC made its first move into HMMC by moving the acute rehab center into the new location; it is a 12-bed center located on the second floor. https://www.azkrmc.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=661:krmc-acuterehabilitation-unit-opens-at-hualapai-mountain-campus&catid=1:news&Itemid=116 The next move might be to transfer all of the women’s services to the new campus. They have also penciled in some plans to potentially open up an ER in the fall/winter of 2014, and have thought about opening up an ambulatory surgery center. The main goal is to have HMMC to function as a facility where less critical care patients can bee seen. https://www.azkrmc.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=446:kingman-regionalmedical-center-to-purchase-hualapai-mountain-medical-center&catid=1:news&Itemid=116 Residency Program KRMC is affiliated with Midwestern University’s Osteopathic School of Medicine.
