THE CHNA DEMONSTRATES ACH'S CURRENT AND FUTURE COMMITMENT, BOTH CLINICALLY AND FINANCIALLY, TO IMPROVE THE COMMUNITY'S HEALTH STATUS BY FULFILLING ITS MISSION TO PROVIDE COMPASSIONATE, QUALITY CARE AND IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY IS DEFINED BY THE MENTAL, PHYSICAL, SOCIAL, AND SPIRITUAL WELL-BEING OF ITS RESIDENTS. UNDERSTANDING HOW DIFFERENT DETERMINANTS AFFECT HEALTH AND FINDING WAYS TO IMPROVE UPON THEM IS CRUCIAL IN PROMOTING AND SUSTAINING HEALTH WITHIN A COMMUNITY. THE CHNA, WHICH IS GUIDED BY COMMUNITY INPUT, SERVES AS A SYSTEMATIC TOOL IN THE APPROACH TO RETRIEVING, EXAMINING, AND USING DATA TO IDENTIFY THE KEY HEALTH PRIORITIES WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. THIS CHNA REPORT SERVES AS THE FOUNDATION FOR IMPROVING HEALTH, WELLNESS AND THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR RESIDENTS IN CAYUGA COUNTY. ACH UNDERSTANDS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF IDENTIFYING AND PRIORITIZING HEALTH NEEDS IN DRIVING IMPACTFUL AND POSITIVE CHANGE IN HEALTH RISK FACTORS OF THE COMMUNITY. FINDINGS WITHIN THE CHNA ALLOW ACH TO UNDERSTAND AND ANTICIPATE SERVICES WHICH ARE MOST DESIRED AND EFFECTIVE AS IT RELATES TO GLOBAL HEALTHCARE DELIVERY, PATIENT-CENTERED CARE AND POSITIVE HEALTH OUTCOMES. NEW YORK STATE PREVENTION AGENDA OBJECTIVES AND NEW YORK STATE COMMUNITY HEALTH INDICATOR REPORTS (CHIRS) FOR CAYUGA COUNTY WERE REFERENCED DURING A REVIEW OF SECONDARY RESEARCH, ALONG WITH PRIMARY RESEARCH CONDUCTED BY RMS HEALTHCARE, A DIVISION OF RESEARCH & MARKETING STRATEGIES, INC. (RMS HEALTHCARE). THE QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH INCLUDED THE COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS OF ON-LINE SURVEY DATA FROM THE VARIOUS STAKEHOLDER GROUPS. THE QUALITATIVE WORK INCLUDED: IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS (IDI'S) WITH KEY COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS RESIDING IN CAYUGA COUNTY. THE COMBINATION OF PRIMARY AND SECONDARY RESEARCH FINDINGS WAS USED AS A KEY REFERENCE GUIDE FOR THE 2022-2024 CHNA DEVELOPMENT. OVER TIME, THE PRIORITIES OF ACH HAVE CHANGED TO REFLECT THE GROWING HEALTHCARE NEEDS AND CHANGING DEMOGRAPHICS OF CAYUGA COUNTY RESIDENTS. THE ISSUES BROUGHT TO LIGHT IN THIS REPORT REPRESENT THE CULMINATION OF COMMUNITY COLLABORATION TO IMPROVE THE SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH RESIDENTS RESIDE AND WHERE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED. ACH REMAINS COMMITTED IN TRANSITIONING ITS CARE MODEL TO SUPPORT MANAGING POPULATIONS OF PATIENTS, WITH SPECIFIC ATTENTION TO SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH, RECOGNIZING THAT HEALTH AND WELL-BEING ARE SHAPED NOT ONLY BY BEHAVIOR CHOICES OF INDIVIDUALS, BUT ALSO BY COMPLEX FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE INDIVIDUAL CHOICES. THROUGHOUT 2022, 2023, AND 2024, AUBURN COMMUNITY HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO WORK CLOSELY WITH CAYUGA COUNTY TO MONITOR AND EVALUATE THE CONTINUED NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY INCLUDING REGULAR MEETINGS AND CONTACT WITH INTERESTED MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY.IN THE LATEST ASSESSMENT THE COMBINATION OF DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS, ALONG WITH THOUGHTFUL REVIEW OF WHAT LOCAL COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND PROGRAMS ARE ALREADY IN PLACE, WERE USED AS KEY REFERENCES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CCHD AND ACH'S 2022-2024 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CHIP) AND COMMUNITY SERVICES PLAN (CSP). THE 2022-2024 CHIP/CSP WILL ADDRESS THE FOLLOWING PREVENTION AREAS:1) PREVENT CHRONIC DISEASES;2) PROMOTE A HEALTHY & SAFE ENVIRONMENT;3) PROMOTE WELL-BEING AND PREVENT MENTAL & SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS; AND4) PROMOTE HEALTHY WOMEN, INFANTS, & CHILDREN.

THE HOSPITAL IS THE LARGEST EMPLOYER IN CAYUGA COUNTY WITH OVER 1400 EMPLOYEES. AUBURN IS BOTH A SAFETY NET AND SOLE COMMUNITY PROVIDER HOSPITAL PROVIDING INPATIENT MEDICAL CARE, EMERGENCY MEDICINE, INPATIENT PSYCHIATRIC CARE, AND A SUITE OF OUTPATIENT SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES INCLUDING CANCER CARE. ADDITIONALLY, AUBURN OPERATES THE FINGER LAKES CENTER FOR LIVING, A 5 STAR RATED, 80-BED SKILLED NURSING FACILITY CONNECTED TO THE HOSPITAL. AUBURN ALSO OPERATES THREE URGENT CARE CENTERS IN ITS COMMUNITIES: FINGER LAKES MEDICAL CARE CENTER; URGENT CARE OF AUBURN AND URGENT MEDICAL CARE OF SKANEATELES. AUBURN ALSO OPERATES A MULTI-SPECIALTY PHYSICIAN GROUP (AUBURN MEMORIAL MEDICAL SERVICES), A PRACTICE THAT BRINGS CONVENIENT AND HIGH-QUALITY ACCESS TO 24 SPECIALTY CARE TO THE GREATER AUBURN COMMUNITY.AUBURN COMMUNITY HOSPITAL ALSO SUPPORTS OUR SPECIALIZED PHYSICIAN PRACTICE, AUBURN MEMORIAL MEDICAL SERVICES, PC, WHICH PROVIDES SPECIALIZED CARE SUCH AS NEUROLOGY, ORTHOPEDICS, OBGYN, NEPHROLOGY, PSYCHOLOGY, ENT, GASTROENTEROLOGY, SURGICAL SERVICES, PODIATRY, PULMONOLOGY, ENDOCRINOLOGY, UROLOGY, URGENT CARE AND PRIMARY CARE SERVICES.

AMMSPC IS ALSO A NON-PROFIT ENTITY THAT JOINS IN WITH THE HOSPITAL'S MISSION, PROVIDING PATIENTS COMPASSIONATE, QUALITY CARE TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY BY SEEING ALL PATIENT TYPES AND PAYORS WHICH A LOT OF SPECIALTY PROVIDERS DO NOT. THE AMMSPC PRACTICE PROVIDED CARE FOR 33,463 PATIENTS THROUGHOUT THE PRACTICE WITH 136,254 TOTAL VISITS IN 2023.

PART I, LINE 7: THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS IN THE TABLE IS A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WAS DERIVED FROM WORKSHEET 2, RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST-TO-CHARGES. PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F): THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $ 3,622,329. PART III, LINE 2: TO CALCULATE THE CURRENT BAD DEBT EXPENSE, A PERCENTAGE OF THE SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS ARE RESERVED BASED ON THE AGING BY BILLED DATE AT MONTH END. SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS FROM ZERO TO 60 DAYS ARE RESERVED AT 60%, 61 TO 90 DAYS ARE RESERVED AT 70%, 91 TO 180 DAYS ARE RESERVED AT 75%, AND OVER 180 DAYS IS RESERVED AT 90%. ALL OTHER ACCOUNTS NET OF THE CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCE AGED AT 91 TO 180 DAYS ARE RESERVED AT 25%, WHILE THE ACCOUNTS AGED OVER 180 DAYS ARE RESERVED AT 75%. PART III, LINE 3: TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, FIRST A RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES IS CALCULATED FROM THE TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSE TO THE GROSS PATIENT CHARGES. THIS PERCENTAGE IS THEN MULTIPLIED BY THE GROSS PATIENT CHARGES THAT WERE WRITTEN OFF PURSUANT TO THE CHARITY CARE POLICIES OF THE HOSPITAL. THE RESULT IS THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. PART III, LINE 4: SEE FOOTNOTES 3(K) ON PAGES 12-18 IN THE ATTACHED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. PART III, LINE 8: THE SHORTFALL SHOWN ABOVE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS ALL PATIENTS WILL BE SEEN AND TREATED AT AUBURN COMMUNITY HOSPITAL REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. THEREFORE, THE FACT THAT THE COSTS TO TREAT MEDICARE PATIENTS EXCEEDED THE REVENUES GENERATED FROM MEDICARE PATIENTS SHOULD ALL BE VIEWED AS A BENEFIT TO THE MEDICARE PATIENTS OF THE COMMUNITY. THE AMOUNT ABOVE WAS CALCULATED BY MULTIPLYING THE GROSS MEDICARE CHARGES FOR THE YEAR BY THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES AS CALULATED ON WORKSHEET 2. PART III, LINE 9B: PATIENTS ELIGIBLE ARE REASSESSED AT EACH ADMISSION AND NO FURTHER COLLECTIONS ARE PURSUED. PART VI, LINE 2: A STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS WHICH INCLUDES AN ANALYSIS BY RESEARCH & MARKETING STRATEGIES, INC (RMS) IS USED TO HELP DETERMINE THE NEEDS OF OUR GEOGRAPHIC AREA.

PART VI, LINE 3: PATIENTS OF AUBURN COMMUNITY HOSPITAL ARE PROVIDED WITH FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INFORMATION UPON BEING ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL, BOTH INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS EVALUATED EVERY TIME A PERSON PRESENTS AT THE FACILITY. PACKETS ARE PROVIDED TO EVERY PATIENT.
