Brenda Barton (right) is the May employee of the month at Texas County Memorial Hospital. She’s with her supervisor, Amanda Blaylock.
Barton is the insurance verification coordinator in the registration department at TCMH. Barton has worked at the hospital since 1996. She was nominated for the award by her supervisor, Amanda Blaylock.
“Brenda knows all the ins and outs of our department, and she’s not afraid to tackle anything,” Blaylock said, describing Barton as “an outstanding employee”.
In addition to making sure that patients at TCMH have approval from their insurance company for the services they need, Barton also trains new employees in the registration department and registers patients for inpatient and outpatient services.
“Brenda comes to work with one thing in mind,” Blaylock said, “And that is to help others.”
As employee of the month, Barton received a certificate honoring her achievement; a pin; a special parking place in the TCMH lot; one day of paid vacation; a $50 gift card, and gift certificates to Paws N Claws, D&L Florist; Blissful Nirvana Massage, Wher Motors, and TQ’s BBQ. A reception will be held at the hospital in honor of Barton.
This is Barton’s second time to receive the TCMH award; she was the January 2014 employee of the month. Barton is eligible for the 2016 TCMH employee of the year award.
