Surgery Duo Celebrated for Data and Processes

Traci Vanecko and Joanne Anthony from Infirmary Surgery were recently recognized for their excellent work fixing procedures and running data. This daily work keeps the surgery department running efficiently and effectively.

Traci’s nominator noted that she has “caught and fixed hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars in charges for procedures. She responds quickly to emails when we have issues with finding a product in the system and works with the National team to fix issues quickly.” Her process improvement helps make sure CHI St. Vincent is getting the maximum reimbursement for the work we do.

Joanne Anthony runs all the data for the Perioperative areas. She is called on often to pull various reports and numbers and she always does so quickly. “She truly helps keep all the Perioperative areas afloat and we are grateful to have her working for this ministry,” her nomination states.
