Carol Hanes will begin her duties at the hospital on May 10.
Hanes will be paid $100,000 yearly plus a $400 monthly automobile allowance. She also will receive a longevity incentive in the amount of $1,000 per month for each month she is employed by the hospital, for a maximum of 25 months, or $25,000.
The longevity incentive will be paid only if the board terminates her contract before the three-year pact expires. Other benefits will be the same as all other county employees.
Hanes is moving to Snyder from Linden where she has been serving as the CEO of the Linden Memorial Hospital.
Interim financial officer Richard Murphy also will make recommended changes to the hospital’s purchasing and disbursement process.
Murphy says the present system is cumbersome and delays the timely acquisition of some goods and delays payments to vendors, that in turn generates late charges.
Murphy also will present a new guideline for approval for treating workers’ compensation patients in the emergency room.
The CFO also will present an in-service program on hospice and the monthly financial statements for approval.
A number of reports will be given Thursday by staff members, including risk management, specialty clinic usage, cataract surgeries and patient satisfaction.
Dr. Bid Cooper, medical staff chief, also will give his monthly report.
A discussion on surplus hospital property will be held, and a contract will be considered for renewal with the Texas Department of Human Services.
The meeting is at 7:30 in the hospital boardroom.
