Tribute gifts are a wonderful<br />
way to recognize the important<br />
work that physicians do for our<br />
community and the patients<br />
they serve. Dr. Foss is a pediatric<br />
radiologist with Medical Center<br />
Radiology Group, which has<br />
been a long-time, generous<br />
philanthropic supporter of<br />
<strong>Orlando</strong> <strong>Health</strong>. It is a privilege<br />
to recognize Dr. Foss for his<br />
commitment to providing care<br />
at the highest level to the patients<br />
we serve.<br />
VOLUNTEER HIGHLIGHT<br />
Team Members and<br />
Volunteers Raise<br />
$380,000<br />
Funds support areas of greatest<br />
need at <strong>Orlando</strong> <strong>Health</strong><br />
This year the Florida Legislature<br />
passed, and Governor Ric Scott<br />
signed, a state budget that<br />
significantly reduced Medicaid<br />
reimbursements to <strong>Orlando</strong><br />
<strong>Health</strong>. That made this year’s Team<br />
Member Giving Campaign even<br />
more important. We are proud to<br />
share that 3,500 team members<br />
and volunteers raised $380,000 of<br />
much-needed additional funding<br />
for <strong>Orlando</strong> <strong>Health</strong>.<br />
Mary McKinnon, director,<br />
Magnet Recognition and External<br />
Nursing Relations, and co-chair,<br />
Team Member Giving Campaign,<br />
says, “It is exciting to see team<br />
members and volunteers go<br />
above and beyond their job<br />
duties to give financially to our<br />
organization. We do not turn<br />
anyone away from receiving<br />
care. How many businesses or<br />
organizations can say they provide<br />
services to their customers or<br />
patients regardless of their ability<br />
to pay? Philanthropy is crucial<br />
because our income stream is<br />
continually decreasing due to<br />
rising uncompensated care and<br />
future funding cuts. Yet we must<br />
continue to provide the highest<br />
level of care to our community.”
