(2) OBESITY/PHYSICAL ACTIVITY WITH A FOCUS ON DIABETES AND HEART DISEASE. TO ADDRESS ACCESS TO CARE, INFIRMARY HEALTH SEEKS TO ESTABLISH PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE AFFORDABLE COMPREHENSIVE HEALTHCARE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AND THAT INCLUDE EARLY DETECTION AND PREVENTION MEASURES AND THAT PROMOTE PATIENT ENGAGEMENT AND SELF-MANAGEMENT FOR CANCER, DIABETES, AND HEART DISEASE. THE STRATEGIES TO ACHIEVE THIS WILL INCLUDE BRINGING HEALTH EDUCATION AND OUTREACH TO VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS AND BUSINESSES. THE HEALTH SYSTEM ALSO PLANS TO ESTABLISH A PREHAB CURRICULUM. ONE OF THE KEY WAYS THAT INFIRMARY HOSPITALS WILL IMPROVE ACCESS IS THROUGH ITS MOBILE SCREENING VEHICLE.

PART III, LINE 3: THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY WAS DERIVED USING RATIO ANALYSIS OF PATIENT BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS PROCESSED THROUGH A PRESUMPTIVE QUALIFICATION MODEL. THE ACCOUNTS ARE ANALYZED FOR DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION TO DETERMINE HOUSEHOLD INCOME LEVELS, CORRELATED TO FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL GUIDELINES, AND APPLIED TO THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY CRITERIA. A LARGE NUMBER OF PATIENTS DO NOT COOPERATE WITH THE ELIGIBILITY PROCESS OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, WHICH IS READILY AVAILABLE TO THEM.
