  1. Just got an interview as a new ASU grad, but I've heard a nasty little rumor that they have trouble paying their employees. Anyone know anything good or bad?

    I'm not sure how accurate it is but I read some recent employee feedback online about that. They're mostly physician owned. Looking at financial stats for 2011 below, they don't seem to be doing very well financially for being a 'for profit' hospital .

    AZ Regional Medical Center is closing May 8.

    Mesa, AZ - Financial stresses and reduction in Medicare reimbursements is forcing one Arizona hospital to shut down.Arizona Regional Medical Center located at 515 N. Mesa Dr. in Mesa will officially close its doors on May 8, said Ken Eckhauser, hospital spokesperson.

    The hospital has been financially stressed due to a reduction in Medicare reimbursements and uncompensated care among other factors, Eckhauser said.

    It is not immediately known how many employees will be affected or if some will be transferred to the hospital's Apache Junction facility.

    That's good news!

    It'll probably re-open after a large hospital chain buys it for pennies on the dollar. It won't be Arizona Regional Medical Center. It's tough times for hospitals but management probably also made plenty of bonehead business decisions.
