SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2018 THE N'WEST IOWA REVIEW/SHELDON, IA A5<br />
HEALTH<br />
Continued from page A1<br />
Barry Whitsell, chief executive<br />
officer of Village Northwest<br />
Unlimited in Sheldon, said the<br />
organization has not experienced<br />
any cuts to programs or<br />
services as a result of managed<br />
care organizations, or MCOs,<br />
taking over.<br />
However, that does not mean<br />
there have not been frustrations.<br />
Whitsell said the biggest<br />
problem the Village has had to<br />
deal with is the timeliness in<br />
which its gets paid for providing<br />
services.<br />
“Managed care organizations<br />
are slow in paying you<br />
for services provided,” he said.<br />
“They are paying an average<br />
17 days slower than the state<br />
of Iowa was paying in the past.<br />
At the end of the month, we<br />
bill for services. Typically, the<br />
state would pay within 30 days.<br />
MCOs are paying in 47 days.”<br />
Whitsell equated it to an<br />
employee’s paycheck being<br />
moved from every two weeks to<br />
every three weeks.<br />
The nonprofit executive<br />
office.<br />
Becker, who is set to replace<br />
Schreurs on Jan. 1 as the county<br />
attorney, proposed the idea of<br />
combining her and Schreurs’ parttime<br />
positions into one full-time<br />
role to board members on Nov. 20.<br />
“I know that one of the concerns<br />
that had been raised and that I’ve<br />
been made aware of was potentially<br />
going full time right off the<br />
bat,” Becker said.<br />
If the supervisors select to switch<br />

said it takes a long time to get<br />
repairs for wheelchairs.<br />
“I equate that to you and I<br />
as individuals, when our car is<br />
not working properly, we get it<br />
fixed so we can ambulate in our<br />
cars,” Whitsell said. “Without<br />
a car, we can get rides from<br />
others, but really we want our<br />
cars to be fixed promptly. Personalize<br />
that to wheelchairs.<br />
A person in a wheelchair that<br />
is broken cannot be separated<br />
from their wheelchairs. Therefore,<br />
they need to be able to get<br />
timely repairs to their wheelchairs.”<br />
The health insurance companies<br />
that are slow to pay<br />

RIDES. He said the Village has<br />
worked with the city of Sheldon<br />
and RIDES to incorporate<br />
as much transportation as<br />
possible since the state rolled<br />
transportation costs into the<br />
reimbursement rate of the<br />
MCOs last year.<br />
‘Try to work with them’<br />
Whitsell said the Village also<br />
is dealing with denials handed<br />
down by the MCOs, especially<br />
for wheelchair equipment. One<br />
example is the lap tray for a<br />
person’s wheelchair.<br />
“They send denials as far as<br />
items they will pay for,” Whitsell<br />
said. “I do not understand why<br />
they would not pay for a lap<br />
tray on a wheelchair. It holds<br />
the individual’s phones, drinks,<br />
book and other personal items.<br />
It’s like that person’s personal<br />

On July 1, another MCO will<br />
enter the mix: Iowa Total Care, a<br />
subsidiary of Centene Corp. out<br />

Since different companies<br />
are involved, Whitsell said<br />
that means there is extra work<br />
involved at the Village. There<br />
are multiple sets of policies that<br />
have to be considered. He said<br />
the addition of another MCO<br />
will not mean enhanced or<br />
more types of care; it will just be<br />

SALARY PROPOSAL:<br />
Part-time assistant O’Brien County<br />
attorney Rachael Becker looked at<br />
what other counties — Cherokee, Clay,<br />
Dickinson, Lyon, Osceola, Plymouth<br />
and Sioux — in the region are paying<br />
their attorneys for the 2018-19 fiscal<br />
year and came up with an average<br />
salary of $102,168.<br />
She is being paid an annual salary of<br />
$39,552, while part-time O’Brien County<br />
attorney Micah Schreurs is making $69,808<br />
a year. She proposed a salary of $99,500<br />
for a full-time county attorney’s position.<br />
Becker based that proposal on her work<br />
experience — she became a part-time<br />
assistant county attorney in May 2017 —<br />
and the county’s population size.<br />
She previously noted that all of her<br />
experience as an assistant county attorney<br />
has occurred in O’Brien County.<br />
“I’m aware of how our county works and<br />
who our players are and who to contact,”<br />
said Becker, who will replace Schreurs as<br />
the county attorney on Jan. 1.<br />
If the board of supervisors decide to make<br />
the county attorney’s position a full-time job,<br />
she also proposed that:<br />
g The person who fills a part-time<br />
assistant county attorney position — Becker<br />
recommended Katie Morgan of rural Archer<br />
— be paid a salary of $50,000. Part-time<br />
assistant county attorney Lori Kolpin, who is<br />
based in Aurelia, is paid a salary of $34,402.<br />
g Full-time legal assistant Jillian Jager<br />
be given an increase in her salary from<br />
$42,500 to $49,500. She received a salary<br />
increase earlier this year from $40,000.<br />
g A new full-time legal assistant be hired<br />
at a salary of $39,000.<br />
Becker said the 2018-19 fiscal year<br />
budget of $240,000 for the county<br />
attorney’s office would be able to<br />
accommodate the proposed salaries.<br />
on Becker’s proposal to make the<br />

COMMUNITY<br />
Randy Kruse, Sheldon’s Farm Bureau Financial Services representative, knows the<br />
importance of community. He was born in Sibley and mostly grew up there with a<br />
good-sized family of siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.<br />
Kruse also appreciates Sheldon, a community where he has made his home and<br />
built a business for more than 20 years.<br />
Interestingly, it was an auto accident in 1995 that made Kruse aware of the<br />
importance of community. The collision was so severe Kruse was forced to undergo<br />
extensive therapy and consider changing to a less physically demanding career.<br />
He gives State of Iowa Vocational Rehab the credit for his career change. He’d<br />
enrolled in a career evaluation test as a part of his ongoing recovery. The test showed<br />
that he was well suited for sales and customer service.<br />
Next, a newspaper ad led Kruse to the Farm Bureau office in Primghar. It was there,<br />
in 1999, that he began to learn the financial services field. In 2004 Kruse opened his<br />
own Farm Bureau Financial Services office in Sheldon.<br />
“One key role the community plays is protecting its people and their property,”<br />
says Kruse. “That is why you have a police and fire department, a water treatment<br />
department and a street department to clear the snow following a heavy storm.”<br />
“A committed, professional financial advisor does the same thing,” adds Kruse,<br />
“but on a more personal level. I offer full-line insurance protection – home, auto,<br />
farm, disability, various life insurance packages and specialized health insurance for<br />
individuals under 65 and those over 65.”<br />
Plus, as a financial advisor, Kruse is qualified and licensed to provide a full line of<br />
investment services including mutual funds and annuities.<br />
Kruse says Sheldon is a wonderful place to live and raise a family. He has a son and<br />
a daughter and his long-time girlfriend, Lisa Story, has two daughters and a son.<br />
“There is much for a family to do here,” he says, “and the school system is excellent!<br />
It’s nice, too, that we have a community college in the city to give quality, lower cost<br />
educational opportunities to students of all ages.”<br />
“We can find just about anything we need locally,” says Kruse. Sheldon is definitely<br />
one of the best possible communities for those looking to raise a family as well as<br />
retire.”<br />
Whether retiring or just starting a marriage and family, personal financial<br />
protection is important. Kruse is pleased to be able to serve so many in Sheldon with<br />
exactly the coverage and planning they need at the exact time they need it.<br />
