So, they moved their Prudential office to the Kaysville Professional Building. Our office in Bountiful was becoming very crowded, what with business booming, and Don and I decided to move closer to our clients, said Mr. Hyde. An agent for Prudential for more than five years, Mr. Chadd specializes in investments as well as insurance. He came to Utah from a Colorado investment firm and found living and working here very rewarding. Mr. Hyde comes from Kaysville and feels quite comfortable here at work. He studied economics at the University of Utah, but found a better offer with Prudential than anywhere else as an economist. One of the things I found so challenging about working for the company is that it isnt just an insurance firm. Prudential offers a total financial plan, Mr. Hyde May 17, 1987 Kurt and Karen Zitzmann, Kaysville, said. For two people whos business depends so much on others being financialwilling to think ly, neither are too concerned about Utahs depressed economy. When people get into a depressed market, thats when they need help the most, Mr. Chadd We find people inexplained. terested in discussing their financial future when the economy is suffering. Theyre looking for advice. Its a little more difficult with investments, however. That is simply because theres less money to go around. ELDER FORD careers rewarding professionally, they admit the friendships they form mean the most. When you meet with a family three or four times a year, you get to know then very well. You become very close friends, Mr. Hyde said. Its very rewarding to develop a financial plan with someone and move them through investments and eventually into a retirement plan. Elder Stuart Jay Ford, son of Jerrol H. and Colleen R. Ford of Cheyenne, Wyo., formerly of Layton, will serve in the Massachusetts, Boston Mission. He will enter the MTC July 15. He will speak at the 11th Ward Chapel on July 12 at 10:45 a.m., located at 60 W. Gordon Ave. An open house will be held at 643 Snowcreek Circle from p.m. that afternoon. long-ter- 4 June 4, 1987 Alan and Kenna Jean Chomszy, Clearfield, girl y m May 18, 1987 Lance and Sandra Techmeyer, Layton, girt Chuck and Shelly Lallis, Layton, boy Paul and Robin Clifton, Layton, boy May 19, 1987 James and Janet Allred, Layton, boy Greg and Kathie Parkhurst, Farmigton, May 20, 1987 Dean and Kathryn Halladay, Layton, girl Tony and Kelly Colvin, Layton, boy Darrell and Deanna Dandoy, Layton, girl t While both men find their girl 3-- 5 Beckett knows the big picture May 21, 1987 Frank and Carol Bindley, Clearfield, boy Bradley and Denise Sisitki, Layton, boy Kirt and Christene Harmon, Layton, boy Gerald and Linda Harding, Layton, girl June 8, 1987 Katherine and Wallin, Kaysville, boy Richarj John and Sandra Christensen, Clearfield, girl June 9, 1987 Marion and Connie Johnson, HAFB, boy Neal and Caroline Briggs, Syracuse, girl May 26, 1987 Lowell and Joyce Knoll, Clearfield, boy May 27, 1987 Dean and Elaine Teasdale, Syracuse, boy Thomas and Frances Mendez, Layton, girl May 29, 1987 Kenneth and Cindy Gibbons, Layton, boy Mark and Trade Wilson, Kaysville, boy Stewart and Teresa Nielsen, Roy, girl May 30, 1987 Kevin and Shannon Orgill, Coalville, boy May 31, 1987 Michael and Cynthia Barr, Kaysville, boy June 2, 1987 David and Janet Rohn, Centerville, boy Alan and Elizabeth Luethje, HAFB, boy Gerald and Connie McMullin, Kaysville, boy Kevin and Janet Nance, West Point, girt June 3, 1987 Dana and Thomock, Clearfield, boy Nyle CUnt and Sandra Anderson, Roy, and Cynthia Nienkamp, Layton, girl Kevin and Diana Berrry, HAFB, boy Alan and Susan Moore, HAFB, girl high-technolo- staff-availa- ble boy-Steve- basis.

Utah hospitals are especially affected since the state traditionally has recorded shorter hospital stays, some two days less than the national average, a factor linked to Utahs youthful population, the high number of obstetrical-maternit- y cases and the family network allowing residents to return home sooner after hospital care. The hospital industry has also been impacted by a reimbursement program for Medicare patients. Ins stead of the traditional arrangement, hospitals now receive a specific amount of reimbursement per patient, generally cost-plu- June 10, 1987 Ross and Karen Perry, Layton, girl Brian and Joyce Harms, Clearfield, boy Marco and Myra Arenas, HAFB, girl Gary and Terrie Davenport, Kaysville, boy June 11, 1987 Michael and Yuni Linnemon, Clearfield, boy Patrick and Shelley Riley, Layton, boy Dan and Tammra Thomason, Kaysville, girl June 12, 1987 Chris and Tammy Maes, Morgan, girl June 14, 1987 Dr. Gerald and Cyndee Miya, Layton, boy June 15, 1987 Wayne and Sue Madison, Layton, boy Martin and Sheryl Zeteda, Clearfield, girl June 16, 1987 Allan and Beverly Butler, HAFB, boy Terry and Elizabeth Smoot, HAFB, boy Chad and Linda Anderson, Roy, boy The Collection Connection Profit margins, he says, are approximately eight percent, and, since Davis North is a privately-owne- d taxpaying entity, about half of that profit is returned to the community in the form of taxes paid for government services. Adding to the fixed costs, the collection of insurance payments and financial recording for government medical' programs account for a substantial payroll. If we could operate like a restaurant and have every patient write out a check at a cashiers window as they leave our facility, we could reduce a hospital bill by 25 percent, he notes. Beckett says one of the greatest changes in the hospital industry has been the dramatic increase in surgery.

Considering the cost of hospitalization, it is understandable that some people think hospitals are making a financial killing, says Beckett. But a patient is not merely paying for the aspirin or the IV or the nursing service. The bulk of hospital expenses comes in the fixed costs-t- he equipment and a trained .

One Davis North patient, for instance, was admitted for treatment of injuries suffered in an automobile accident, but complications led to a lengthy hospital stay with actual charges exceeding $100,000. Despite the additional costs, the hospital received only $15,000 from the government. What this means, says Beckett, is that the survival of a hospital depends on the efficiency and management of the entire operaand the tion. Both the facilities must turn a profit if they wish to stay in business. For Beckett, the private hospital industry is a challenge, one he was to meet. Bom in Hamilton, Ohio, he graduated from Eastern Kentucky University and spent nearly four years with Touche Ross, one of the Big 8 international accounting firms. He later worked in the internal audit department for Humana, Inc. before accepting a position as assistant financial manager of Humd anas for-pro- non-prof- it well-prepar- newly-purchase- d 238-be- hospital in Anchorage, Alaska. The Alaska hospital had a lot of potential, but had normally lost a lot of money," he says. The goal of the new Humana team was to apply a management style that would turn it around. Without such management, the community would have lost the hospital. As profitability returned, Beckett accepted the new assignment at Davis North, a promotion that also freed him from the isolation of the Alaska wilderness. 4 4 Alaska is beautiful, but it takes a certain type of person to remain there for an extended period of time," he says. "Alaska remains isolated; a large state more than twice the size of Texas but with only one area code and one statewide telephone book.
