JLR-services-brochures-PS_Layout 1 4/4/13 10:23 AM Page 16 YOUR CHALLENGES: We know that many hospitals, in particular, face challenges with anesthesia services including: OUR SOLUTIONS: Minimizing Stipends and Maximizing Revenue-cycle Management A national shortage of anesthesiologists and CRNAs, causing a dramatic increase in the costs to hire and retain qualified practitioners An increasing Medicare and Medicaid population whose anesthesia services fall so far below the rates of commercial carriers that they do not cover the costs of nurse anesthetists, much less anesthesiologists The need to provide large stipends to ensure adequate anesthesiology coverage Challenges negotiating managed care contracts JLR Medical Group knows you want to provide the highest quality anesthesiologists to anchor your department without sacrificing financial stability. With JLR, you can ensure that the business functions of your anesthesiology group are as competent as the clinical practice.

JLR-services-brochures-PS_Layout 1 4/4/13 10:23 AM Page 13 Quality & Accountability At JLR Medical Group, patient safety and quality have always been paramount. That is why we have partnered with industry-leader FIDES to measure, track and report quality data on every case we perform. A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH: Clarity, Consistency and Detail A proven, refined program founded by anesthesiologists, FIDES has 18 years of experience producing anesthesia quality data. Their tools, including simple checklists, allow us to easily and cost effectively measure and compare quality data at the deepest levels -- by facility, site, service line, provider and payer, across more than 100 different data points, including: Demographics -- Age, Race, etc. Planned Disposition Anesthesia Type ASA Class Risk Factors Outcomes measured include: Pre-op Delays Intra-op Observations Core Temperature Post-op Antiemetic Post-anesthesia Observations Post-PACU Observations Satisfaction Survey Prophylactic Antibiotics Post-anesthesia Data Blood Sugar Vomiting Delay in Discharge Post-discharge Follow-up Comments with Image 8
JLR-services-brochures-PS_Layout 1 4/4/13 10:23 AM Page 12 Quality & Accountability Benchmarking And through FIDES, we are able to benchmark this data against ourselves as well as against more than 700 anesthesiologists in 20 other anesthesiology groups across the country. This benefits everyone -- patients, our client hospitals and surgery centers, surgeons, and our own medical team alike. Charge Anesthesiologists In JLR s efforts to work with our clients to improve perioperative streamlining, and patient satisfaction/safety, we staff anesthesiology personnel in a care team model with a supervising Charge Physician who takes on the role of air traffic control for an OR, not just for the day but for a week at a time. This unique approach aids in consistent communication and transfer of information throughout the workday, keeping operations running smoothly and efficiently by proactively dealing with issues that arise. The Charge Anesthesiologist can address challenges like abnormal or missing lab tests, minimizing delays and turnover between cases. This operations model also aids with staffing consistency and anticipating surgeons needs. Peer Review and Evidence-based Care Our experienced and accomplished JLR clinicians are also deeply invested in peer review and evidence-based care, and we back that up with our advanced metrics to yield clinical excellence. Quality & accountability benefits everyone -- patients, our client hospitals and surgery centers, surgeons, and our own medical team alike. 9

JLR-services-brochures-PS_Layout 1 4/4/13 10:23 AM Page 6 JLR Anesthesia is one of the most professional and excellent medical groups I have ever worked with. The hallmark of their work is outstanding clinical outcomes. Patients do so well under their care. Surgeons enjoy and appreciate the professionalism, team spirit and working together with JLR. I have worked for Florida Hospital for 27 and a half years. I have worked in an executive capacity, directly along with JLR, for more than 19 years. Having led three of Florida Hospital s acquisitions (Kissimmee, Winter Park and Winter Park ASC), I had the privilege of inviting JLR anesthesia to take over from previous providers. I made this decision because of their clinical quality, their devotion to Florida Hospital and their dedication to their patients. In two cases, contractual issues required an almost immediate takeover from JLR. There were no qualms or concerns about being able to staff busy operating rooms. Their doctors and CRNAs jumped right in with no complaints. They were able to take over and continue service without any hesitancy or gaps. These were no small feats. Major partners of the group even delayed planned vacations so they could take shifts and help out. For the success of these transitions, I will be eternally grateful. JLR continues to advance. Over the past three years at Winter Park, I have watched JLR thought leaders develop now one of the nation s foremost surgical pain interventional programs. Their devotion to learning and applying new regional techniques has had stunning patient and business improvements for orthopedic surgery. Their skills in regional anesthesia and nerve blocks have dramatically reduced post-operative pain and complications. They have entered into clinical trials and research, along with expanding this application now to other surgical specialties. Their doctors have embarked on this with patient safety first and foremost. The doctors and nurses of JLR are their best asset. They truly are caring individuals. They believe faith makes a difference including many who pray with their patients. As individuals, they are a lot of fun. In my capacity as Mayor of Winter Park, I have met many of the doctors who live in my community outside of the hospital. I know them to be excellent citizens, supporters of an improved quality of life and just good friends. I am always impressed serving at a community hospital of the sub-specialization and rotations of their team throughout the Florida Hospital system. To know today s case may be handled by an anesthesiologist who worked in open heart surgery yesterday provides an extra level of knowledge and comfort. The partnership Florida Hospital has with JLR is one where both parties have the same goals clinical excellence, growth and financial success. Over the years, JLR has increased their management prowess to include helping the hospital better manage the operating rooms. This is a prime example of how the partnership works well. As Florida Hospital grows (both by adding campuses or adding OR s), JLR has grown alongside. Over the past several years, JLR s commitment to the Adventist University of Health Sciences addition of a CRNA Master s program has been exemplary. They have provided counsel, financial investment, clinical sites and hired graduates. This is a stellar example of the continuation of the partnership. My first involvement with JLR was in 1965 when I had my tonsils removed as a child. Dr. George Miles was the anesthesiologist. This was a major event in my life made better by Dr. Miles kindness and care. Much has changed in anesthetics since that time, but the kind professionalism evident by JLR s team has never wavered. It was my privilege to know Dr. Joe Riley. It is my privilege to now work with the team that bears his name JLR Anesthesia. Ken Bradley CEO, Winter Park Memorial Hospital, A Florida Hospital 11
