Instead, employees will receive bonuses through a gain share program if Halifax Health exceeds its budget projections and meets its patient satisfaction survey goals, according to the report.
Halifax Health is predicting operating income of $2.5 million this fiscal year, and would like to raise the percentage of patients who would recommend the system from 68 percent to the high seventies, according to The Daytona Beach News-Journal.
The system last did a gain share program in 2011, through which employees each received $300.
