Greeneville Community HospitalPart V, Section B, Line 3j: To understand each community's individual needs, Ballad Health conducted a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) for each Ballad hospital to profile the health of the residents within its service area. Throughout the CHNA process, high priority was given to determining the health disparities and available resources within each community. Community members from each county met with Ballad representatives to discuss current health priorities and identify potential solutions. Priorities established for their CHNA were determined by the most significant health needs of the community. Ballad Health hospitals, including Greeneville Community Hospital (GCH), conducted their fifth CHNA last year with board approval and publication occurring at the end of FY21.For FY21 CHNAs, Ballad Health utilized a mixed-methods approach for primary and secondary data collection to gather regional information to inform the 2021 community health needs assessments. The secondary data collection entailed the compilation of secondary data pertaining to agreed upon metrics and indicators from an array of verified sources. The primary data collection component involved both a key stakeholder survey and key stakeholder focus groups. Findings from both research methods were used to prioritize the needs of the community served by each Ballad Health facility and determine priority focus areas for future improvement efforts.Analysis of secondary data for Greene County, findings from the key stakeholder survey, and the perspectives of diverse key stakeholders led to the prioritization of community issues for Greene County. For Greeneville Community Hospital, the three priority areas for future improvement efforts that were selected by key stakeholders in Greene County, TN are substance abuse, mental health, and food insecurity.
Greeneville Community HospitalPart V, Section B, Line 5: The community health needs assessment process was guided by the Mobilizing for Action Through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) model, with an understanding that aspects of the model may have to be adapted due to the purpose of the assessment for Ballad Health and constraints related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In coordination with the MAPP model, concepts from both Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) and the Arkansas Center for Health Improvement (ACHI) Community Health Assessment Toolkit were also utilized for the assessments. Following guidance from the MAPP model, a Key Stakeholder Survey was designed with the primary aim of identifying the most-pressing community issues. In aligning with principles of CBPR, the key stakeholder survey was designed to allow key stakeholders to frame community issues in their own words through the use of open-ended questions. In addition to the identification of community issues, the key stakeholder survey was also designed to discern why survey respondents believed the community issues they selected had the greatest effect on the overall health and wellbeing of their community. Questions related to ideas and suggestions for improvement efforts, gauging the success of efforts after the previous community health needs assessments, and community struggles related to the COVID-19 pandemic were also included in the survey. Independent focus groups were conducted for each Ballad Health facility in order to provide specific and unique information for each community being served. The MAPP model and questions from the key stakeholder survey were used to guide the development and construction of the focus groups. Because the key stakeholder survey primarily dealt with the identification of community issues, the focus groups were primarily designed to prioritize community issues identified through the key stakeholder survey and discuss actionable items around how to best address these community issues. Questions related to root causes of community issues, the current state of resources to address community issues, needed resources to initiate improvement efforts and be successful, and community struggles related to the COVID-19 pandemic were also included in the focus group facilitation guide. The key stakeholder focus groups were conducted virtually via WebEx and were one hour and thirty minutes in length. For Greeneville Community Hospital there were thirteen focus group participants. Similar to the key stakeholder survey representation, focus group participants represented an array of different sectors in Greene County, TN which included: the school system, businesses, government, the health care system, health departments, faith-based organizations, and a diverse group of community-based organizations. For stakeholders who were not able to attend the focus group in real-time, blank facilitation guide templates with questions concerning the three priority areas identified by the focus group participants were sent to them immediately after the conclusion of the focus group. This allowed key stakeholders who were not able to attend the focus group in real-time to still provide input and the hospital to ensure the involvement of diverse stakeholders. Activities associated with the June 2021 assessment took place from summer of 2020 through the spring of 2021. The assessment activity including focus groups & surveys were used to develop the hospital implementation plan that was completed fall 2021.
Greeneville Community HospitalPart V, Section B, Line 6a: Each hospital within Ballad Health completed a CHNA. GCH's CHNA was conducted with all Ballad Health hospitals at that time to include: Bristol Regional Medical Center, Hancock County Hospital, Hawkins County Memorial Hospital, Greeneville Community Hospital, Holston Valley Medical Center, Johnson City Medical Center (includes Niswonger Children's Hospital and Woodridge Hospital), Franklin Woods Community Hospital, Indian Path Community Hospital, Lonesome Pine Hospital (including Mountain View campus), Johnson County Community Hospital, Johnston Memorial Hospital, Norton Community Hospital, Dickenson Community Hospital, Russell County Hospital, Smyth County Community Hospital, Sycamore Shoals Hospital and Unicoi County Hospital.
Greeneville Community HospitalPart V, Section B, Line 11: During the year, Greeneville Community Hospital focused on its CHNA priorities as identified in its FY21 CHNA report. GCH's primary areas of focus included: substance abuse, mental health, and food insecurity. Many additional community needs exist in our region. It is fiscally impossible for a hospital to address every health need in a community, which is why the CHNA process is used to identify and prioritize areas of focus. A thoughtful CHNA evaluates overall community health needs to determine which ones the hospital can best influence in a positive way. Consideration is given to other organizations in the hospital's geographic area that already offer services addressing specific health needs. In some cases, it is best to simply support an identified health need through a financial donation to another nonprofit organization skilled in certain areas: teen pregnancy, dental health, fighting homelessness, etc. Hospitals also lend support to other nonprofit organizations by serving on their boards, committees, and assisting with fundraising efforts. Ballad Health made financial contributions to other nonprofit organizations providing community services that support the hospital's CHNA.
Greeneville Community HospitalPart V, Section B, Line 13h: Ballad Health's financial assistance policy allows for some exceptions to strictly adhering to federal poverty guidelines when awarding financial assistance. Unique circumstances may be weighed and assessed for financial assistance consideration on a case-by-case basis. Also, there are some services where financial assistance may be provided outside of federal poverty guidelines. These are noted in Ballad Health's financial assistance policy.

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part I, Line 3c:Financial assistance approval can apply to an assortment of patients such as those who have exhausted their TennCare/Medicaid benefits, those who qualified for TennCare/Medicaid after the date of service, deceased patients with no estate or assets, uninsured patients, and underinsured patients. While Ballad Health's qualifications for financial assistance is based on federal poverty guidelines, asset values may also be used to determine eligibility. Unique circumstances may be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Charity approval covers current or active patient balances when they are approved and there is no limitation or cap on the amount of charity that a patient may receive. Ballad Health hospitals do not stop approving financial assistance for patient accounts if a hospital's charity write-offs exceed the hospital's charity budget.All Ballad Health hospitals provide an uninsured discount. The current uninsured discount for Critical Access Hospitals (CAH's) is 77% and for all other hospitals or physician practices it is 85%. In addition to the uninsured discount, many patients will further qualify for additional financial assistance. All patients seeking financial assistance must submit an application for financial assistance and submit documents in support of the information on the application, unless specifically excluded according to policy guidelines. Medicaid eligible patients will qualify for 100% financial assistance and not be required to complete the required documentation when: a) Medicaid eligibility requirements are met after the service is provided, b) non-covered charges occur on a Medicaid eligible encounter, or c) benefits have been exhausted. Deceased patients with no estate also qualify for 100% financial assistance.Financial assistance determinations may be retroactive for all outstanding balances. In addition, Ballad Health offers a number of programs with special discounts such as lactation consultation services, oncology treatment regimens, enrollment in various community programs, and prescription drugs filled post-discharge.
Part I, Line 7:The cost to charge ratio (worksheet 2 "ratio of patient care cost to charges") was used to calculate line 7a financial assistance (charity care) cost. GCH's cost accounting system was used to determine losses from TennCare and Medicaid reported on line 7b. Line 7e community health improvement includes costs that are taken directly from departmental operating reports or expenses specific to a community health event, with no additional overhead included in the cost. Line 7f health professions education is comprised of internships (primarily nursing, therapy and other allied health students) with local schools and universities, allowing their health profession students to receive hands-on training in a hospital setting. The Ballad Health Organizational Development Department (OD) maintains records for the non-Medicare programs. Only labor costs are included for GCH team members that provide training (no overhead is applied) and only a percentage of team members' time is attributed to actual training. For line 7g subsidized health services, GCH's cost accounting system is used because GCH has established standard costing reports for these services. GCH is careful to ensure no double counting of cost. Although there are other service lines within GCH that lose money, GCH does not report services that hospitals are required by state licensure to provide, routine services or ancillary services. Line 7h research represents GCH's expense allocation from Ballad Health for research. Line 7i cash and in-kind contributions include cash disbursements to various organizations.
Part II, Community Building Activities:Ballad Health leaders support and encourage all team members to volunteer time, money and skills to community service projects and charitable organizations. Senior leaders and board members set a positive example for GCH team members, serving voluntarily on committees and boards of local service and nonprofit organizations. Some also serve as members and consultants on professional committees and task forces that affect regional development in healthcare and education. GCH does not capture costs associated with team members that serve on other nonprofit boards or provide services to other nonprofits.
Part III, Line 2:Self-pay balances include accounts after payments and contractual adjustments (discounts) have been applied from all third-party payers such as Medicare, TennCare, commercial insurers, and others - generally leaving the patient responsible for any remaining deductible and/or co-payment. Other self-pay accounts are from patients with no insurance or other third-party coverage. Under Ballad Health's system-wide self-pay policy, any patient who has no insurance and is ineligible for any government assistance program receives an 85% discount with the exception of critical access hospitals where it is 77%. Many self-pay patients will further qualify for financial assistance (sometimes referred to as charity care) if they provide the financial information needed to deem them eligible or upon determination of presumptive charity eligibility.After the normal collection process has indicated an account is uncollectible, GCH writes the account off to bad debt. The hospital's overall self-pay accounts receivable balance is evaluated on an ongoing basis to evaluate the age of accounts receivable, historical write-offs and recoveries and any unusual instances (such as local, regional or national economic conditions) which affect the collectability of receivables.
Part III, Line 3:GCH's primary external collection agency historically estimated that approximately 37% of GCH's bad debt would have qualified for financial assistance if patients had provided a financial assistance application and required documentation. GCH has begun to score accounts using a presumptive eligibility tool. This tool utilizes various data points for a proprietary algorithm operated by an outside vendor to provide an individual's score which is then relied upon to assign presumptive charity eligibility.There are many instances of patients with account balances and no health insurance coverage that GCH believes would qualify for financial assistance. Although patients are encouraged to apply for assistance, many will not do so. GCH would prefer for patients to submit completed financial assistance applications given that historical data clearly indicates that most uninsured patients and many underinsured patients will qualify for financial assistance under GCH's program. Without a completed application or approval through the presumptive charity eligibility review, these are recorded as bad debt instead of charity care.
Part III, Line 4:Ballad Health's audited financial statements include a footnote on page 14 that describes bad debt. GCH is included in the June 30, 2022 audited financial statements of Ballad Health (attached).
Part III, Line 8:Excluding Medicare losses reported in Part I subsidized health, the Part III Medicare allowable costs are reported using GCH's filed Medicare cost report (C/R). The C/R uses a cost to charge ratio based on a step-down allocation methodology.GCH believes Medicare losses should be allowed as a reportable community benefit, similar to governmental programs such as Medicaid. As a participating provider in the Medicare program, hospitals are required to provide the full regimen of care for the Medicare population. There are a number of care regimens that are compensated by the Medicare program at levels below cost. Therefore, it is only logical to allow hospitals to report these uncompensated services as a community benefit. By making this change, nonprofit providers will be encouraged to continue important care delivery models for the aging population in spite of the fact it may be economically injurious.
Part III, Line 9b:Requests for financial assistance are evaluated using established guidelines, while allowing for unique financial circumstances - for example, medically indigent patients with catastrophic medical costs that would threaten the patient's household financial viability.When a patient requests financial assistance or when an application has been received, the patient's account is placed in a hold status to prevent further collection activities until financial assistance eligibility is determined. All Ballad Health hospitals comply with IRS 501(r) regulatory guidelines.Ballad Health's collection policy clearly states that all patients are treated equally - with dignity and respect. Ballad Health ensures that outside collection agencies adhere to Ballad Health billing and collection guidelines. The collection program includes communicating expected financial responsibility prior to service. GCH provides assistance to help underinsured and uninsured patients determine sources of payment for medical bills and to help patients determine eligibility for programs such as TennCare or Medicaid.After insurance benefit verification, GCH bills insurance carriers. If the insurance carrier denies payment of the service/procedure as non-covered or the patient has exceeded their maximum benefits, the service/procedure will qualify for the uninsured discount.Financial counselors are available to discuss financial assistance with patients and their families. GCH provides a number of payment options:- a pre-service discount may be offered- a discount in excess of established discounting rates may be granted for catastrophic high dollar accounts- GCH accepts all non-contracted and out-of-network payers and will make attempts to work with these payers regarding appropriate reimbursement and billing to their members- as part of Ballad Health's commitments to the State of Tennessee and Commonwealth of Virginia to form Ballad Health, not-in-network discounts are applied per policies in place for GCH- payment arrangements are available so long as the account is not with a collection agencyReasonable efforts are made to determine if a patient is eligible for financial assistance - see Schedule H, Part VI, line 3 for information on how patients are informed about Ballad Health's financial assistance policy.
Part VI, Line 2:Focusing on population health improvement and associated priority metrics allows Ballad Health to further engage the efforts of its hospitals in partnership with communities in our service areas. It has helped Ballad to better identify health disparities that appear across the individual communities and has helped Ballad to prioritize issues that are most important in each hospital's community. Engaging local community organizations expands partnerships so that organizations work together more to address community health needs. Ballad Health uses a comprehensive process to gather input for and continues to evolve its population health plan. Because our hospitals are located in a region with many chronic disease challenges and high levels of health-related social risks, Ballad Health's goal is to target population health issues to make lasting improvements. Ballad conducts ongoing interviews, focus groups and meetings with external groups, including the regional health departments, United Way agencies, chambers of commerce, schools and community organizations, the regional accountable care community leadership council, as well as internal groups such as our population health and community benefit committee of the Ballad Health board of directors, the Ballad Health population health clinical committee, social needs council, grant advisory committees and our hospital community boards in the creation and on-going implementation of its population health plan.
Part VI, Line 3:Consistent with the Ballad Health financial assistance policy, GCH communicates with and provides education to our patients through various avenues regarding governmental assistance programs and hospital financial assistance. Various educational and application documents related to obtaining financial assistance are widely available at GCH and all documents are available on the Ballad Health website. Printed financial assistance educational materials are part of each registration packet and posters are displayed in highly visible areas of the hospital. The financial assistance policy and documents are available in emergency departments and admitting areas. GCH is also happy to mail all documents to patients and offers a plain language summary. All of the documents are available in English and Spanish. Financial assistance information is available during pre-registration, registration and/or during financial counseling. GCH offers governmental program eligibility representatives to assist patients in securing eligibility for TennCare or Medicaid, federal disability and other governmental assistance programs. Additionally, if a patient or community resident expresses an interest in the Affordable Care Act healthcare exchange, GCH representatives have the qualifications and experience to assist them through the entire process. Financial counselors offer financial assistance applications to patients who do not qualify for governmental assistance programs and are unable to pay for some or all of their healthcare. All patient billing statements have verbiage discussing financial assistance along with contact information. The last letter to the patient displays the plain language summary. In all oral correspondences with a patient, if it is identified the patient cannot meet payment requirements on their account, financial assistance is discussed as an option. Applicants are notified of financial assistance determination in writing.
Part VI, Line 4:Greeneville Community Hospital, located in Greeneville, TN, primarily serves residents of Greene County in Northeast Tennessee. In 2021, Greene County had a population of 67,039 people. The population projections for Greene County over the next five years show that the county will likely experience little population growth overall.

Part VI, Line 5:GCH is dedicated to operating efficiently so that waste is minimized. GCH's leadership remains mindful of managing limited resources so that adequate facilities and equipment are available for the care of our patients. Surplus funds are invested into improving treatment options for our patients through new technologies, recruiting physicians and trained staff in shortage areas, and improving GCH facilities. Various checks and balances are established to ensure that expenditures for operating expenses and capital costs are reasonable and necessary.GCH serves as a training site for many types of health professions: nursing, pharmacy, psychology, lab, respiratory therapy, EMT, public health, etc. Students from several colleges, universities, and programs receive training and hands-on experience in GCH. GCH resources are devoted to health conferences for local health professionals and offer other programs focused on improving the health of our residents. While GCH operates in a predominantly low-income, rural area, GCH continues to offer services that operate at a loss because residents would otherwise need to leave their hometown or county to receive needed care.Physicians that request privileges who are qualified and credentialed are extended privileges by GCH.
Part VI, Line 6:Greeneville Community Hospital is located in Greeneville, Tennessee and is a member of Ballad Health. Wellmont Health System's merger with Mountain States Health Alliance to form Ballad Health opened up many opportunities not previously available to two competing health systems. Collaboration started post-merger and Ballad Health continues to see progress towards improving efficiencies within the health system, activities consistent with Ballad Health's population health initiative, sharing best practice quality improvements, and other benefits related to operating as one rather than operating in a competitive environment. A clinical council was formed immediately following the merger. The council includes physicians nominated from the leadership of all Ballad hospitals. A Community Benefit and Population Health Committee of the board was established and various other infrastructures have been established since the merger. Across Ballad's hospitals, there were many projects, programs and collaborative efforts that took place during the year.

ExplanationThe following executives listed in Schedule J, Part II participated in a 457(f) retirement plan provided by Ballad Health (BH). The 457(f) plan is a nonqualified tax-deferred compensation plan available to a select group of key executives for the intent of supporting retention and to offer a competitive total retirement program. Account balances have a "substantial risk of forfeiture". In addition to creditor risk, substantial risk of forfeiture is created through default risk if the participant's employment with BH is terminated prior to age 65. However, the 457(f) plan contains a non-compete provision that provides the account balance to be paid in a lump sum after the executive satisfies the two-year non-compete period. This provision applies to employer contributions if the executive has provided eligible service for six or more years. The executive will receive the entire account balance if he/she becomes disabled, dies or if the executive terminates for "good reason or is involuntarily terminated without "good cause" within a 24-month period after a change-of-control occurs. Distributions from this plan are subject to federal, state, and local taxes on the entire account balance upon distribution. Additionally, during the year a one-time acceleration of the supplemental executive retirement plan occurred for the CEO in the amount of $1,002,170. This amount was taxable in the year accelerated and is included in total compensation for purposes of reporting.

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part III, Program Service AccomplishmentsTakoma Regional Hospital's (TRH) membership consists of Wellmont Health System. TRH is also a member of the Ballad Health network. Ballad Health (Ballad) is an integrated healthcare delivery system consisting of 21 hospitals in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia, including a Level 1 Trauma Center, dedicated children's hospital, several community hospitals, three critical access hospitals, a behavioral health hospital, an addiction treatment facility, long-term care facilities, home care and hospice services, retail pharmacies, outpatient services and a comprehensive medical management corporation. Ballad works closely with an active independent medical community and community stakeholders to improve the health and well-being of over one million people in 29 counties of the Appalachian Highlands in Northeast Tennessee, Southwest Virginia, Northwest North Carolina, and Southeast Kentucky. Ballad is a Tennessee non-profit corporation and is the main provider of healthcare services in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia. Ballad Health is a tax-exempt entity and the parent corporation of both Mountain States Health Alliance (MSHA) and Wellmont Health System (WHS). On February 1, 2018, Ballad was formed through a merger of two legacy systems, Mountain States Health Alliance and Wellmont Health System. Ballad was formed under state-action immunity in compliance with federal antitrust law, to create a healthier region and keep healthcare local. The action approving the merger was officially taken through the agreements made between Ballad and the State of Tennessee in the Certificate of Public Advantage (the "COPA") and the Letter Authorizing the Cooperative Agreement (the "CA") in Virginia. Pursuant to the COPA and CA, Ballad must fulfill certain obligations, commitments, and covenants. Tennessee and Virginia, through their respective health departments, supervise specific aspects of Ballad's operations under certain conditions of the COPA and the CA. The COPA and amendments is publicly available on the website of the Tennessee Department of Health, at https://www.tn.gov/health/health-program -areas/health-planning/certificate-of-public-advantage.html. The Cooperative Agreement is available on the website of the Virginia Department of Health, at https://www.vdh.virginia.gov/licensure- and-certification/cooperative-agreement/. Specific to the hospitals included in this Form 990, services were provided to: 4,591 inpatients 219,986 outpatient visits 26,823 emergency visits 440 deliveries 4,119 surgeries
GREENE COUNTY, TN: GREENEVILLE COMMUNITY HOSPITAL (GCH)- 140-bed acute care hospital in Greenville, Tennessee serving the community since 1939. - 90-bed skilled nursing facility, known as the Laughlin Healthcare Center. - Provides inpatient, emergency, diagnostic imaging, cardiology, obstetric, surgical and outpatient services. - Quantros named GCH in the top 10% of hospitals in the state for medical excellence in sepsis care in its 2023 CareChex awards.
Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Public Health EmergencyIn March 2020, Ballad Health (Ballad) executed its disaster plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This plan included the activation of its Corporate Emergency Operations Command (CEOC) to coordinate efforts across the system and around the region to rapidly plan for and execute an ongoing response to the issues resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Throughout 2021, Ballad continued to battle against COVID-19 as new variants emerged, such as the Delta and Omicron variants. As these variants spread through the Ballad service area, Ballad's emergency rooms experienced significant surges. In addition to caring for patients within the hospital's walls, Ballad also supported the community through testing and vaccination efforts. In 2021 alone, Ballad conducted almost 300,000 tests and delivered over 88,000 total doses of COVID-19 vaccines. In September 2021, Ballad expanded its Safe at Home program, which was designed to provide at-home COVID-19 care to include patients presenting at Ballad urgent care and primary care locations and those visiting Ballad hospitals. Launched in November 2020, the program aimed to prevent hospital overcrowding and conserve inpatient beds during current and expected COVID-19 surges. Eligible patients in the Safe at Home program were equipped with a pulse oximeter and thermometer to monitor their vitals at home and ensure they receive timely and appropriate care if their condition worsened. The program also involved regular interactions with Ballad's clinical team members via phone calls. In April of 2021, Ballad launched the region's first Center for Post-COVID Care, an innovative approach to COVID-19 care that creates an access point to comprehensive clinical care for patients struggling with post-COVID symptoms. Through the Center for Post-COVID Care, Ballad offers a full spectrum of services, including care navigation and case management, for post-COVID patients. The health system is also fostering research and learning opportunities and collaborating with other leading institutions to understand post-COVID care and increase awareness among healthcare providers, patients, and community members of this condition. In April 2022, Ballad closed its Corporate Emergency Operations Center. Ballad continues to vigilantly monitor COVID-19 and its variants in its service area and will respond accordingly. FOCUSING ON QUALITY
EMPHASIZING ZERO-HARM THROUGH TIERED SAFETY HUDDLES - As part of BalladHealth's systemwide initiative to improve safety and reduce harm, Ballad Health continued its tiered safety huddle program throughout the pandemic. Each day, frontline team members across the Ballad Health organization begin their morning with huddles focused on clinical quality and safety. These huddles provide an organized manner for team members to express opportunities to improve safety and quality and strive towards becoming a zero-harm institution. Any issues identified during those huddles are elevated to hospital leadership. If hospital leadership needs help to resolve the problem, the issue is further elevated to the market and corporate levels. Using this approach, Ballad Health can improve outcomes and enhance safety by rapidly deploying resources to support and solve safety issues as they arise. LAUNCH OF IBM/WATSON TOP HEALTH SYSTEM JOURNEY - Since the merger in 2018, one of Ballad Health's priorities has been to instill a zero-harm culture and become one of the highest-performing health systems in America for the quality of care it delivers to patients. After a rigorous review of the various systems for measuring that success, Ballad Health leaders chose IBM/Watson because it provided measurable, achievable, and valid guideposts for the health system. To help lead Ballad Health on this journey to become a top health system in the nation, health system leaders formed the IBM/Watson Top 15 Health System Task Force, comprised of stakeholders from multiple departments of Ballad Health. IBM/Watson identifies the 15 top-performing health systems in the nation based on four key performance domains: inpatient outcomes, extended outcomes, operational efficiency, and patient experience. Dr. Amit Vashist, Ballad Health's chief clinical officer, who leads the IBM/Watson top health system journey, stated, "We looked far and wide at various methodologies to identify the most appropriate benchmarks to measure ourselves against, and we ultimately chose IBM/Watson because it included an ideal blend of metrics and measures that are truly meaningful and appealed to our frontline clinicians, such as hospital-acquired conditions, ED throughput, readmissions, mortality, costs of care and length of stay." CLINICAL COUNCIL - A unique feature of Ballad Health is the establishment of a robust and diverse Clinical Council, comprised of about 30 physicians. The physicians were nominated by the leadership of all Ballad Health hospitals, the health system's medical group and independently practicing community physicians. The Council's members also include pharmacists, advanced practice providers and nurses. The Council reports directly to the Quality Committee of the Ballad Health Board of Directors. The council aims to ensure excellence in clinical care through physician engagement and leadership and is charged with guiding Ballad Health's transformation into a community health improvement system. As a result of the council's efforts, several important quality measures are now performing among the top-decile health systems in America. CONTINUED PUBLIC ADVANTAGE - Ballad's compliance with each of the COPA and CA is supervised by Tennessee and Virginia respectively. Ballad is in compliance with all terms of the COPA and CA. Each year since the creation of Ballad, the State of Tennessee and Commonwealth of Virginia have independently confirmed the public advantage created by the unification of the hospitals in the rural region. In the latest report dated June 2022, the Tennessee Department of Health highlighted that despite the significant changes for population health across the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic, the 11 Tennessee counties served by Ballad in "the COPA region performed better, and [were] shown to be healthier, than peer counties in 50 percent of population health" measures and that drug overdoses have decreased considerably in the region since the merger. The region also outperforms peer counties on all vaccination measures for children and adults. The overall cost of healthcare was reduced due to the reduction of preventable hospitalizations in adults 65 and older by almost half. The merger has reduced unnecessary administrative overhead costs and eliminated unnecessary duplication of high-cost services reducing the overall cost of care for the Appalachian Highlands. In the Tennessee Department of Health report covering the period of July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2021, the department noted that as a combined health system, Ballad Health was able to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic "in ways that would not have been possible with two separate health systems" to ensure the deployment of staff, beds and personal protective equipment met the needs of the community and served as a trusted voice in the region for COVID-19 information. In each year before the COVID-19 pandemic, Ballad Health also maintained one of the nation's most successful Accountable Care Organizations, which has been highlighted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services as one of a handful of organizations that have produced savings for taxpayers in each year since the program's creation, while making high-quality scores.
ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE (ESG)Ballad Health is committed to being a responsible and concerned citizen of the communities of the service area where it operates and is driven by its mission: "honor those we serve by delivering the best possible care." Ballad continues to deploy initiatives intended to improve the overall health and well-being of the over one million people living in its service area. ENVIRONMENTAL - Environmental stewardship and preserving the environment is important to Ballad and is demonstrated in the following practices: - Environmentally responsible supply chain - Encourage the recycling of materials and minimization of waste - Encourage the reduction of energy usage - Incorporate environmentally preferable alternatives when designing new construction SOCIAL - Social commitments are an integral part of Ballad's mission, vision, and values. By working and collaborating with others in the communities in which it serves, Ballad works "to build a legacy of superior health by listening to and caring for those we serve". Ballad provides direct and in-kind support to improve access to care and deliver healthy lifestyle services, education, and activities. The community health programs are designed to improve access and quality of care, strengthen community outreach and partnerships, decrease healthcare costs, and assist in the reduction of health care disparities in the region. Ballad has opened two new rural hospitals in the past five years. Ballad offers extensive education and outreach programs throughout the community at little or no cost to participants. Program areas include: - Community events, such as health fairs, screenings, flu shots, health and safety education, support groups, stroke education, baby and child health, and medical libraries - Children's resources, such as the Morning Mile Program, B.E.A.R. Buddies, car seat safety, and Families Thrive. - Heart and Soul, senior health, and well-being programs. - General health resources, individual health, nutrition, and safety education. - Regular health education speakers covering a wide range of topics. The following are some of the programs designed to improve healthcare equity and availability: Ballad as a Community Health Improvement Organization: Ballad's goal is to ensure the sustainability of rural healthcare services while improving the health and well-being of the region as a whole. In the short-term, Ballad will address health related social needs to improve access to care, reduce inequity, and empower individuals to adopt healthy behaviors and manage health conditions. In the long-term, Ballad will address social drivers of health to provide a community level foundation for permanent regional health improvement through multi-sector collective impact. Ballad is taking an intergenerational approach to focus on children's health initiatives to give kids a strong start in life, as well as assisting adults with overcoming obstacles to health and self-sufficiency. Ballad is on a journey to universalize social needs screening and prioritized navigation resources throughout the system using embedded Epic tools combined with the UniteUs referral management platform. These efforts are informed and supported by a multi-departmental team called the Social Needs Council which has accountability to the system Population Health Council, the Chief Population Health Officer, and ultimately the board Population Health and Social Responsibility Committee. STRONG Accountable Care Community: Driving Community Level Action and Change: The STRONG Accountable Care Community is a regional collective impact model focusing on community level strategies across a life course model that includes a multi-generation approach to parenting support and family self-sufficiency. Established in 2018, the STRONG Accountable Care Community (STRONG ACC), sponsored by Ballad, is a 350 organization, multi-sector model serving the same geographic footprint as Ballad and additional contiguous counties. The STRONG ACC has adopted the "Five Conditions of Collective Impact": a common agenda, shared measurement, mutually reinforcing activities, continuous communication, and backbone support. Ballad is providing backbone support and investing in the STRONG ACC because the health system believes the collective impact model is necessary to accelerate, leverage, and sustain community level change. The STRONG ACC is also using the UniteUs platform for a "no wrong door" approach to social needs across hundreds of networked organizations. The organization is also creating an Early Care and Education Plan for all of Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia. For more information, visit https://www.strongacc.org/. Accountable Health Communities ("AHC"): When Ballad was awarded the Accountable Health Communities grant from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in 2017, the system acted on its vision to universalize social needs screening and navigation. Health related social needs create major barriers to health for some individuals. Since its inception, the program has screened 182,000 individuals on Medicare or Medicaid and identified 50,000 distinct needs, working with nearly 2,000 regional organizations to successfully connect individuals to services which provide food, housing, transportation, safety support, and utilities among other needs. AHC has provided 29,681 community referrals and navigation for 7,573 patients. The program has revealed new information about the extent of social needs within Ballad's patient environment and informed the goal to scale social needs screening and navigation services throughout the organization. Appalachian Highlands Care Network: Appalachian Highlands Care Network, started in 2020, is Ballad's program to serve low-income, uninsured people of the region through a realignment of charity care dollars. The goals of the Appalachian Highlands Care Network are to identify low-income uninsured people, enroll them in the program, and serve them to improve quality of care, increase access to care, and reduce avoidable cost of care. Patients in the program receive free needed medical care from Ballad and a network of other providers. This includes ensuring all patients have a source of primary care and are screened and navigated to social need resources, provided with medical care coordination, and assisted through care management services. Ballad partners significantly with Appalachian Mountain Project Access, the region's free and reduced cost clinics and health departments, and hundreds of regional social support agencies to break down barriers to medical care, improve chronic conditions like diabetes, and address social needs. To date, the program has enrolled more than 4,800 individuals.
STRONG Starts: Ballad believes safe, stable, nurturing environmentsfor children are essential to optimal early development and later success in life. Started in 2021, STRONG Starts is aimed at improving birth outcomes and reducing the negative impact of chronic stress for mothers, babies and families. The birth of a new baby is a pivotal time for a mother and her family. No one should feel alone or unsupported during this time. Ballad seeks to connect with every expectant mother as early in her pregnancy as possible to ensure access to early prenatal care - all in partnership with the region's obstetric providers. As the life situation and pregnancy experience for every woman is different, Ballad will build supportive relationships aligned with the unique circumstances of every woman and family. With embedded staff in the region's obstetric practices and hospital birthing centers, these relationships begin early. Staff will help families connect with community resources for issues from food/housing insecurity to parenting resources to education/job training. To date, the program has screened more than 7,300 women and served nearly 3,000 through the course of their pregnancies. The program continues into the post-natal and early stage of life. Ballad staff assist those in the program through kindergarten entry with a whole-family approach. This ongoing relationship will help with evolving needs and the transition in healthcare from the obstetric environment to the pediatric environment. Ballad works with regional pediatricians to ensure they can refer children and families into the program. The developmental milestones of children will be assessed so early supports can be provided, and Ballad assist with connections to community resources as children grow, including programs which support resiliency and early learning environments. Ballad seeks to further support the safety, stability, and self-sufficiency of families and to help ensure children enter kindergarten developmentally, socially, and emotionally ready to learn. This first experience with the educational system is foundational, as it sets the tone for later success with grade level reading, math proficiency, and the academic discipline needed to ensure high school graduation and college and career readiness. These benchmarks are predictors of later economic and health outcomes which can reshape the life trajectory, health, and well-being for children and families for generations to come. To date, this section of the program has served more than 2,000 families. In addition to these programs, Ballad invests significant funding annually to support partnering organizations, Community Health Improvement Sites, who provide aligned services and mutually serve the populations mentioned above. These services include free health services, care coordination, housing supports, substance use and recovery, social needs support, maternal/child supports, early learning and literacy improvement initiatives, and women's health services. Ballad also provides a host of other services to vulnerable populations including free cancer screenings, mobile health services, health fairs, children's resources, and health education programs notably through a network of faith community nurses. The health system continued to address the cost of care in the region. For example, Ballad successfully managed the care of thousands of COVID-19 patients in their homes through the "Safe at Home" program. The program served 5,654 patients and saved millions of dollars in potential hospitalization costs and freed up hospital capacity for the most seriously ill patients. Based on the strength of this program, Ballad's Hospital at Home waiver was approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for Ballad's Bristol Regional Medical Center, Holston Valley Medical Center and Johnson City Medical Center. This waiver will allow Ballad to provide hospital-level care at home for Medicare patients who traditionally qualify for hospital admission. Early results from similar programs around the country indicate high patient satisfaction and quality outcomes at a lower cost than traditional inpatient hospitalization.
GovernanceGovernance is overseen by the Ballad Board of Directors and ongoing ESG work through the following committees: - Audit and Compliance - environmental and sustainability performance - Community Benefit & Population Health - social and community goals and performance - Executive Compensation - human capital; diversity, equity, and inclusion; and pay equity goals and performance - Governance - governance goals and performance - Quality - equity of care, patient safety and quality of care goals and performance Ballad has a conflict-of-interest policy and plans to align reporting with the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board's topics for disclosure and other reporting frameworks in the coming years. Ballad has leader diversity with 30% of CEOs being females and 33% of Executive Vice Presidents being females. Forbes recognized Ballad as The Best Employers for Diversity in 2020. CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS - From its inception in February of 2018, Ballad Health made significant contributions to the community it serves totaling over $29 million to date in direct contributions and other community health improvement initiatives. A few examples from fiscal year 2022 include: Support for Speedway Children's Charities, aid to Feeding Southwest Virginia, provision of new EKG equipment to regional emergency medical services, and investments in regional programs for schoolchildren. IMPROVING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE SERVICES RE-IMAGINE RURAL HEALTHCARE - Our region has a variety of health, economic and other issues that, when combined, present a unique and challenging environment for healthcare access and outcomes. These unique challenges were reaffirmed in a 2017 report issued by the Appalachian Regional Commission, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Foundation for a Healthier Kentucky (Health Disparities in Appalachia), which found that the health outcomes in the greater Appalachian region are worse than those experienced in the United States as a whole in 7 of the 10 leading causes of death: heart disease, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), injury, stroke, diabetes and suicide. The region also faces economic challenges, with performance on incomes, poverty rates, unemployment rates and postsecondary education lagging the national level. This is relevant because, as the study notes, socioeconomic and health outcomes are often interrelated, if not interdependent. Since 2010, more than 151 rural hospitals have closed in the United States, according to the North Carolina Rural Health Research Program. Compared to other states, Tennessee ranks amongst the worst in the nation, with 15 rural hospital closures since 2005. In the region served by Ballad Health, however, it is a different story. Every community in the region with a hospital prior to the merger creating Ballad Health continues to be served by a hospital. In fact, in the middle of the pandemic, Ballad Health opened the country's newest rural hospital. In July 2021, Ballad Health followed through on its promise to the residents of Lee County, Virginia, and reopened Lee County Community Hospital in Pennington Gap. CREATED SINGLE COORDINATED REGIONAL TRAUMA SYSTEM - A critical success factor of the COPA and CA is avoidance of duplication of hospital resources. Ballad Health consolidated two Level I trauma centers operating within 25 miles of each other and subsequently created a coordinated regional trauma system. In approving this move in advance of the merger, the State of Tennessee relied upon the evidence published in multiple respected studies which found higher volume trauma centers lead to improved outcomes. The move toward a single coordinated trauma system followed the guidance of the American College of Surgeons (ACS), which verifies trauma centers. The Tennessee Department of Health, after conducting a rigorous review of the trauma program at Johnson City Medical Center, issued its Level I Trauma Center Reverification Site Visit Report. The report found the hospital "has demonstrated an outstanding commitment to care for the injured patient." Further, the survey resulted in zero deficiencies, a first for trauma care in the region. CONSOLIDATED REGIONAL PERINATAL CENTER - Tennessee law requires a regionalized system of care for high-risk newborns. As a result of this law, Tennessee recognizes five regional perinatal centers. Niswonger Children's Hospital at Johnson City Medical Center is the designated center for regional perinatal care for the Appalachian Highlands. Prior to the merger, two neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) existed and were not coordinated. After the merger, Ballad Health immediately took steps to consolidate the NICUs to achieve a more sustainable and coordinated system of care for neonates, while also reducing the costs associated with maintaining two lower-volume units. After this consolidation, Ballad Health partnered with ETSU's Quillen College of Medicine to provide ongoing expert neonatology coverage for the hospital 24 hours per day. As a result of the merger and NICU consolidation, every newborn in the region has access to more than 25 pediatric specialists at the regional Perinatal Center. EXPANDED ACCESS TO PEDIATRIC SPECIALTIES - With financial support from Ballad Health and the State of Tennessee, the ETSU Quillen College of Medicine was able to successfully recruit pediatric surgeons to support Niswonger Children's Hospital. Our partners at ETSU's Quillen College of Medicine also provide 24/7 neonatology coverage for the NICU. Ballad Health now proudly meets the highest standards for regional perinatal care, something that was not thought possible prior to the merger creating Ballad Health. PARTNERSHIP WITH ETSU TO CREATE FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM IN ADDICTION MEDICINE - Ballad Health and East Tennessee State University formed a partnership to create a new fellowship program in addiction medicine. As part of its commitment to expand education and training in the region, Ballad Health will fund any unreimbursed costs of the fellowship program which, over a 10-year period, could cost more than $2.5 million. ESTABLISHMENT OF CENTER FOR RURAL HEALTH RESEARCH - Tennessee Governor Bill Lee announced the creation of a new Center for Rural Health Research that will be housed at the College of Public Health at East Tennessee State University. In addition to state funding, Ballad Health has committed to contributing more than $15 million during the next 10 years to the Center. The goal of the Center will be to work with Ballad Health, local healthcare delivery partners, national experts and the leadership of ETSU Health to identify new mechanisms to improve health in rural and nonurban communities. Specific emphasis will be placed on strategies that disrupt inter-generational cycles of behaviors that contribute to poor health outcomes, which ultimately can affect college and career-readiness. RECRUITMENT OF NEW PHYSICIANS TO THE APPALACHIAN HIGHLANDS - Ballad Health provided the necessary resources to recruit new specialists to serve our region, many of whom were recruited to private practices not owned by Ballad Health. The addition of specialists is helping to improve access to care in rural communities. For instance, Wise County, Virginia now benefits from an orthopedist, a cardiologist and several other physicians and providers. Wythe County, Virginia, a community not served by a Ballad Health hospital, benefits from a cardiologist recruited by Ballad Health. Throughout the region, new physicians and advanced practitioners, recruited and funded by Ballad Health, are serving the region - from trauma care to pediatrics, from Wythe County, Virginia to Hancock County, Tennessee.
OTHER NOTABLE EVENTS AND AWARDS- Ballad has invested significantly across the region specifically in academic and community institutions that serve the people in the Service Area. Examples of this investment are shown through the continuum of service from the offering of observation opportunities to students of all ages within our clinical facilities, to providing experts to lecture to school children on a broad variety of healthcare topics. The commitment to giving back extends to direct investment in regional educational partners. Some key examples of this include the Appalachian Highlands Center for Nursing Advancement, The Center for Rural Health Research, the STRONG BRAIN Institute, and the Gatton College of Pharmacy Center for Pharmacy, Education, Outreach, and Advocacy. The work of these centers at ETSU focuses on some of the leading issues facing the Service Area, from the development and support of the next evolution of nursing as a profession, to understanding the unique challenges facing our public health, to the scourge of adverse childhood experiences, to access and intervention at the community pharmacy, Ballad is committed to understanding and addressing the significant issues facing the Service Area. - Ballad is also engaged in funding the development of new and expanded healthcare training programs across the region. Ballad has granted support of programs in Nursing and Allied Health. From a new BSN program in Southwest Virginia at Emory & Henry College, to a new program in Ultrasonography at Southwest Virginia Community College, we are supporting programs large and small. We have expanded the Medical-legal partnership we have in the Appalachian Highlands to include all of the Ballad facilities as well as many of the outpatient clinics. This one-of-a-kind program partners Ballad with Virginia Tech and the Appalachian School of Law together to address the challenges of access to social supports for the poorest members of the Service Area. Ballad is a sponsor of a residency in Advanced Education Graduate Dentistry in Southwest Virginia. This program has seen dramatic growth over the years and surpassed 10,000 patients cared for in fiscal year 2022. The endemic problem of poor oral hygiene across Service Area accounts for loss of economic opportunity, loss of self-esteem, and profound impacts on the health of individuals suffering from missing or diseased teeth. - Ballad's research department serves as the central office for multi-specialty research oversight in the System. In addition to providing full spectrum support for studies generated and managed by the research department, the department provides oversight for studies generated by external groups. The research department has participated in several large-scale, multi-center trials with subject retention at nearly 100%. Oversight services include administrative, legal, regulatory support, internal service arrangement and financial management. Ballad is a world leader in cardiovascular clinical trials. Ballad's chair of clinical research and medical director of the interventional and diagnostic catheterization labs led a new clinical trial in the United States for a potentially groundbreaking new carotid stent. The cardiovascular program at Holston Valley has performed as the No. 1 or No. 2 enroller in the United States and globally in at least 30 top research trials. - Received its Accreditation/Department of Distinction from the International Association for Healthcare Security & Safety (IAHSS) - Recognized by Harvard University and UnitedHealthcare as one of four healthcare organizations leading the way towards a 3D model for value-based care - Earned the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) Digital Health Most Wired. - After the creation of a regional and coordinated system of trauma care nearly two years prior, in July 2021, a Tennessee Department of Health survey concluded the trauma program serving the Appalachian Highlands provides "outstanding commitment to care for the injured patient and found zero deficiencies at the Level I Trauma Center at Johnson City Medical Center, a first for trauma care in the region. As a result of the regional and coordinated system of trauma care, Ballad decreased mortality by 40% and reduced the cost of care by approximately $3 million. - Ballad has achieved seven EPIC Gold Stars.
