Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.Endowment Funds are designated for purposes that align within this organization's exempt purpose.
Part X : FIN48 FootnoteNorthern Light Health, its hospitals, and certain other affiliates have been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be tax-exempt charitable organizations as described in Section 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, accordingly, are exempt from federal income taxes on related income pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for these organizations.Tax-exempt charitable organizations could be required to record an obligation for income taxes as the result of a tax position they have historically taken on various tax exposure items including unrelated business income or tax status. Under guidance issued by FASB, assets and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to not meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, based upon the technical merits of the position. Estimated interest and penalties, if applicable, related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of income tax expense. Northern Light Health has evaluated its tax position taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns and concluded the impact to be not material.Certain of Northern Light Health's affiliates are taxable entities. Deferred taxes related to these entities are based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets and liabilities for these entities are not material.

Facility: Northern Light AR Gould Hospit - Part V, Section B, Line 5The Maine Shared CHNA research team conducted a statewide qualitative assessment among stakeholders to identify and prioritize significant health issues in communities across the state. The assessment, coordinated with the Maine CDC and engaged public health expertise throughout the process. Community outreach was conducted between September 2021 and January 2022. All forms of engagement included public forums, community sponsored events, and oral surveys. The purpose of these outreach efforts was to gather feedback on data and to identify health priorities, community assets, and gaps in resources to be used in health improvement planning. Virtual community forums with residents and service providers were held in the county in partnership with the Maine CDC to solicit input from individuals representing populations with health disparities including medically underserved, low-income, or minority populations. The following organizations attended the November 3, 2021, Aroostook County Shared CHNA Community Engagement Forum and provided valuable feedback on the Maine Shared CHNA.Persons representing broad interests of the community who were consulted during the engagement process (the following list was extracted from the Aroostook County CHNA report, page 20): American Red Cross of Northern New England, Aroostook Agency on Aging, Aroostook County Action Program, Aroostook Mental Health Services, Inc., Aroostook Public Health District, Aroostook Regional Transportation System, Bridge for Hope, Cary Medical Center, Downeast Public Health District, Fish River Rural Health, Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians, Houlton Regional Hospital, Jefferson Cary Cancer Center, Katahdin Valley Health Center, Link for Hope, Maliseet Health and Wellness Center, MMG Insurance Company, MSAD 70, Northern Light AR Gould Hospital, Northern Light Health, Northern Light Home Care and Hospice, Northern Maine Area Health Education Center/Northern Maine Community College, Northern Maine Medical Center, Pines Health Services, Power of Prevention, State of Maine DHHS, University of Maine Fort Kent, University of Maine Presque Isle. New this cycle was an expanded effort to reach those who may experience systemic disadvantages and therefore experience a greater rate of health disparities. Two types of outreach were piloted in this effort.One effort included nine community sponsored events hosted by organizations having statewide reach representing the following communities: Black or African Americans; people who are homeless or formerly homeless; older adults; people who are deaf or hard of hearing; people who define themselves or identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer and/or questioning (LGBTQ+); people with a disability; people with a mental health diagnosis; people with low income; and youth.Another effort included conducting oral surveys in collaboration with eight ethnic-based community organizations community health workers in order to better reach Maines immigrant population that included: 1,000 surveys were conducted in either English (32%), Somali, (24%), Arabic (23%), French (8%), Spanish (5%), Lingala (3%), and other languages including Swahili, Maay Maay, Portuguese, Oromo, Eretria, Kirundi, and Amara. When asked for their countries of origin, respondents most commonly cited the United States (212), Iraq (205), Somalia (157), The Democratic Republic of Congo (81), Djibouti (70), Kenya (30), and Mexico (29). Other countries of origin mentioned included Rwanda, Ethiopia, Angola, Syria, Guatemala, South Africa, Palestine, Puerto Rico, Morocco, Afghanistan, El Salvador, Nigeria, Canada, Burundi, Eritrea, France, Honduras, Uganda, Jamaica, Mali, Gabon, Sudan, Nicaragua, Peru, and Brazil.
Facility: Northern Light AR Gould Hospit - Part V, Section B, Line 6aThe Maine Shared CHNA was conducted through a collaborative effort among Maines four largest health-care systems Central Maine Healthcare, Northern Light Health (legal name Eastern Maine Healthcare Systems), MaineGeneral Health, MaineHealth and the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention, an office of the Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). Northern Light Health member organizations participating in the Shared CHNA included Acadia Hospital, AR Gould Hospital, Blue Hill Hospital, CA Dean Hospital, Eastern Maine Medical Center, Inland Hospital, Maine Coast Hospital, Mayo Hospital, Mercy Hospital, and Sebasticook Valley Hospital. See Line 5s response for a comprehensive list of participating organizations, included other non-Northern Light Health hospitals who were consulted during the engagement process.
Facility: Northern Light AR Gould Hospit - Part V, Section B, Line 11Northern Light Health recently conducted their 2022 Shared Community Health Needs Assessment that will inform priority work for implementation in FY23 FY25. In FY22, Northern Light AR Gould Hospital developed our plan to address significant needs identified in our 2022 Community Health Strategy (aka, implementation strategy). Though priority work from the 2022 Shared CHNA wont begin until FY23, AR Gould Hospital will be prepared to implement priority work from our 2022 strategy with no gap in implementation efforts between the two CHNA cycles. While conducting the 2022 Shared CHNA research and outreach, AR Gould Hospital continued to implement priority work from the final year, FY22, of the three-year 2019 Community Health Strategy (implementation years FY20, FY21, and FY22). Below reflect these efforts related to the 2019 Community Health Strategy.The data gathered from the 2019 Shared Community Health Needs Assessment (Shared CHNA) informed AR Gould Hospitals Community Health Strategy (Implementation Strategy) developed with input from community stakeholders including those who serve priority populations, the local Public Health District Liaison, local business leaders, and community advocates. Priorities were selected after weighing the severity of each priority area, availability of known and effective interventions, determination that the priority area was un-addressed or under-addressed, and community collaborations underway with AR Gould Hospital. A hospital task force considered the data and identified areas of significant need including priority concerns, intended actions to address the need, programs and resource allocation, planned collaborations, and population of focus. The implementation strategy was presented and adopted by the hospitals governing board. Northern Light AR Gould identified four priority areas of focus addressing the significant needs identified in its 2019 CHNA as follows:Social determinants of healthActions taken by AR Gould Hospital to address this priority in FY22: Northern Light Health made significant progress in Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) screening and intervention. The Northern Light Health SDOH Team defined completed SDOH screening and established a system policy for minimum SDOH screening standards to provide consistency in screening guidelines. During FY22, the SDOH Team worked with Information Systems to continually improve the SDOH Screening Tool based on user recommendations and will continue to manage user requests moving forward. SDOH Team leaders worked with members of Northern Light Health Quality to develop an SDOH screening dashboard which provides real-time screening rates by member organization, practice, provider, and payor type, as well as prevalence of SDOH need from positive screening results. The dashboard is undergoing validation and is anticipated to be available in FY23. Northern Light Health achieved a significant milestone in responding to social health needs when the new Northern Light Health Findhelp platform went live on September 13, 2022. Findhelp is a national social care network that will make it easier for patients and providers to find and connect with local resources. The platform is embedded within our electronic health record so that care teams can find and refer patients to resources and has a public portal that community members can access at any time.Northern Light AR Gould Hospitals community health coordinator continues preparing a food insecurity report monthly and sharing the results with all managers and leads on this project. Each department has been encouraged to increase the number of screenings that are performed in their clinic area. Food bags from Good Shepherd Food Bank (GSFB) have been expanded to all areas of the hospital, and anyone who has a positive food insecurity screening can receive one. Gift cards, purchased with a grant from GSFB, are also available for patients in need of food but have transportation issues. Through this process, AR Gould has screened 10,844 patients for food insecurity; of these, 282 had a positive screen and 78 patients received some sort of assistance.Substance useActions taken by AR Gould Hospital to address this priority in FY22: Northern Light AR Gould Community Health Coordinator, served on the Aroostook Mental Health Center - HRSA Consortium Workgroup and is a member of the Aroostook County Action Program Drug Free Aroostook coalition. They also participated in Cary Medical Centers Power of Prevention meetings and Aroostook County Action Programs Health Service Advisory Committee. To reach and educate the people in our community, AR Gould provided activities with local recreation departments, participated in the Great American Smoke Out, spread the word about Drug Take Back events, raised awareness to the dangers of smoking through information provided to patients during Wear Red for Womens Heart Health, and provided Facebook and Medical Monday information on substance use and tobacco. AR Goulds Community Health Coordinator attended education on Stigma Training, Substance Use Disorder Training and attended the Governors Opioid Response Seminar. AR Gould was thrilled to have been awarded the Platinum Level award for tobacco policy, a step up from last years Gold Level. The United Way of Aroostook, Aroostook Mental Health Center (AMHC) and AR Gould held a Substance Use Symposium on April 1, at the University of Maine at Presque Isle. This symposium was for employers and the public to explain what Aroostook County is seeing for problems with substance use, what the available resources are, and who is there to help. A total of 85 people attended the event, nine vendors had tables to represent their programs. Gordon Smith, the Yankowskis (a family that has experienced substance use tragedy), Joanna Russell (from Maine Department of Labor), and a panel of people that included the medical director of the emergency department, a person in long-term recovery, an affected individual, a human resource professional, a law enforcement officer, and a behavioral health provider were on the panel. The feedback was very positive for this collaborative effort. Other partnerships included printing prevention booklets for Aroostook County Action Program (ACAP) to be distributed throughout Aroostook County. Sharing medication lock boxes and drug deactivation bags, donated by Power of Prevention and Drug Free Communities, with our pharmacy staff to be given out to patients that have been prescribed scheduled medications.Access to careActions taken by AR Gould Hospital to address this priority in FY22: Northern Light AR Gould Hospitals Community Health Coordinator worked to implement work through the Maine Cancer Foundation (MCF) grant that was received. This grant was provided to give uninsured or underinsured patients access to free FIT tests and provide education opportunities about colorectal screenings to the public. Steps to administering the grant and providing education included meeting with all the outpatient office managers, creating posters and handouts, sending letters to all uninsured patients at AR Gould, Facebook posts, advertising in local papers, and featuring the grant in our monthly newsletter. Through our efforts, we were able to far exceed our goal of reaching 14,000 Aroostook County citizens with important information about colorectal cancer screenings. MCF was happy with the outreach projects we provided and felt that the message was received by the desired audience. The grant ended in June 2022.Physical activity, nutrition, and weightActions taken by AR Gould Hospital to address this priority in FY22: Northern Light AR Gould Hospital worked collaboratively with 36 partners to provide 41 events for the citizens of Aroostook County. These events were held in the community, virtually, in businesses, and through individual mailings and giveaways to our patient population. These efforts included creating a new monthly newsletter and informational programming for seniors, offering a school-wide bike rally and health-related programming for youth, and visiting colleges and businesses with health programs and information. These evidence-based events focused on increasing access to and availability of physical activity and nutrition information. Weve received positive feedback from our community on these endeavors.Additional information related to actions taken by Northern Light AR Gould on the above priorities can be found in their FY22 Progress Report to Our Community at https://northernlighthealth.org/2019-Community-Health-Strategy.

At Northern Light Health, we understand the importance of making a promise and doing the work to keep it.Our promise to the people and communities we serve across our great state of Maine is to make healthcare work for you. This means that we promise to get better every day by raising quality through teamwork, efficiency, and innovation. We promise to guide the way for our patients and their families, through the care experience. We live in a big, rural state, and we know access to care can be challenging for some people in our communities. So, we are committed to improving access. And last, but certainly not least, we promise to see patients as diverse individuals with their own unique needs.In this annual report, we highlight the ways our valued employees and community partners are working together to keep our promises to the communities we serve. From helping firefighters access lung cancer studies at world-class research hospitals, to helping busy parents schedule pediatrics appointments on their own time, and using the latest in diagnostic technology to help people with congestive heart failure stay out of the hospital. We are also helping the state address a critical shortage of psychiatric inpatient beds while addressing the state's long-term community-based mental and behavioral health needs.These stories in this report are just a few examples of the promises we work hard to keep every day. This work inspires us. We hope it inspires you too.Timothy J. Dentry, MBAPresident & CEONorthern Light HealthKathy CoreyBoard ChairNorthern Light HealthAcadia for AllEmerald Forcier is walking an aisle of gleaming white chairs carefully set on a lush green lawn overlooking the Penobscot River. Her husband, Kurt is hustling along on a lawn tractor, making sure the lawn is short and neat for the upcoming wedding the couple plans to host at their venue, Penobscot Bay Weddings in Winterport. As her four-year-old daughter, Maisie picks wildflowers, Forcier is holding her 8-month-old son Miles in her arms while she thinks about all the work she has left to do in the wedding tent. I often say to friends and family when they ask how I'm doing, I'm like, I am exhausted. We're starting a new business. And yet the deep, important things are wonderful.But seven years ago, things were not wonderful for Forcier in terms of her mental health. She was living on the island of Bali; she was having difficulty getting the medications to manage her depression, and she was in a suicidal state. She moved back to the United States and attended an inpatient treatment program, which she credits with saving her life. After six months of hard work restarting her life, she was back in Maine, but her health insurance was due to expire at the beginning of the new year. Despite spending four weeks consistently trying, Forcier could not access any outpatient provider to renew her prescriptions. Desperate for help, she ended up in a hospital emergency department on New Year's Eve 2015. Even then, she was sent away multiple times because psychiatric care was not available.I remember what it was like when I had reached my rock bottom and I needed inpatient services. I also remember the fear and helplessness of being stuck in the emergency department, unable to access the care I needed. I frankly cannot even imagine the terror and the sadness of experiencing both of these things at once. The day a person needs inpatient care is one of the worst days of their life. To be stuck in an emergency department with nowhere to go is a devastating experience far too many people face, and I cannot imagine a child or their parent going through that.Forcier's experience is unfortunately all too common. Across Maine, there simply are not enough inpatient beds and people who end up in crisis situations turn to hospital emergency departments.Nadia Mendiola, MD, an adolescent psychiatrist at Northern Light Acadia Hospital, sees it all too often. She says it's particularly troubling when children get stuck in these emergency departments for several weeks, or even months, waiting for an inpatient bed. Emergency care physicians, they're wonderful at their job but they're not psychiatrists. They have limited options, they have limited space, and you're talking about kids who can't even function in a big home or a big school and now you're confining them to a little spot. It's just not conducive to good care.This is one of the reasons why Northern Light Acadia Hospital is undertaking an ambitious expansion project to double the number of its single occupancy rooms. The 50,000 square feet expansion will add 50 pediatric inpatient rooms as well as new group and individual treatment spaces. The 50 existing inpatient rooms are being remodeled to single occupancy, adult inpatient rooms to better meet current behavioral healthcare standards.Acadia President Scott Oxley knows the expansion is needed. Unfortunately, the kids we see today are sicker than they were 30 years ago, so we need more circulation space, more room for group therapies. And really, our existing facility does not accommodate that, shares Oxley.In addition to the new inpatient rooms, there will also be an expansion of the Mood and Memory clinic for patients with Alzheimer's disease and dementia, and an endowment created for workforce development, recruitment, and retention. All this work requires substantial investment, and Oxley says community support thus far has been exceptional.Long term, the key to our success is early detection, early intervention, keeping folks in their communities, and keeping them out of the highest level of care. The reality is there's such a shortage of inpatient beds, that the need is urgent for inpatient beds while we work strategically and collaboratively on the longer-term plan.For more information about the Capital Campaign go to northernlight.org/AcadiaForAll Donors have given generously to the Acadia for All campaign including the Stephen and Tabitha King Foundation which donated one million dollars.Bingo!How's your heart health?Beverly Fowler is her name and Bingo is her game. Every Monday and Wednesday, Fowler leaves her Bangor apartment and heads to the Bangor Elks Lodge to have lunch with friends, play a few card games, and set up for evening Bingo. Usually on a Monday night, we get between 80 and 100 people, which is a good, good evening. Some winter nights, if it's snowing or something, we only get about 70, but that's still pretty good, she says. Fowler also plays Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. Saturday is a free day, she says with a chuckle.At 83 years old, Fowler enjoys staying active and socializing, but managing her congestive heart failure was slowing her down. I kept filling up with fluids and ending up in the hospital for a week at a time. That's happened three or four times, says Fowler.Alan Jansujwicz, MD, general cardiologist and director of Northern Light Cardiovascular Care is working to improve the quality of life of patients like Beverly by keeping them out of the hospital. We know patients with heart failure end up being hospitalized over the course of time and each hospitalization matters. The statistics say that if you're hospitalized with heart failure, over the next six months to a year, your risk of not doing well is higher than before you were hospitalized, says Dr. Jansujwicz.Now, Northern Light Health is offering a new option to patients like Fowler, so they can monitor their condition and correct course before needing hospitalization. A remote monitoring device is implanted in the patient's pulmonary artery through a blood vessel in the groin. It measures pulmonary artery pressure and sends information to a receiver that resembles a giant pillow, which the patient lays on to take daily readings. The receiver records and sends the information to a secure website where a patient care manager like Janet Glidden, RN, BSN, MBA, reviews it. If Glidden sees troubling changes in a patient's numbers, she can call them and talk about what's happening. I'll look at their readings, and if I see they are ranging up, I'll call. They may not feel like there's any change, but I'll say, Your numbers are up. What did you do differently yesterday?' It almost always relates to diet or having too many fluids, Glidden shares.If the pressure's going up, it tells us the patient might be heading toward heart failure. Maybe we can stop that before it happens by increasing their therapies as opposed to them just slowly slipping into heart failure

Schedule H, Part V, line 11-Explanation of Needs not Addressed cont'dNorthern Light AR Gould Hospital considered all priorities identified in the Shared CHNA, as well as other sources, through an extensive review process. While the full spectrum of needs is important, AR Gould Hospital is currently poised to focus only on the highest priorities at this time. Several priorities not selected, due to a variety of reasons are listed below:Mental Health - The Aroostook Mental Health Center takes the lead on mental health services in Aroostook County and therefore, Northern Light AR Gould Hospital will continue to collaborate with them in the future as needed. In addition, we have developed a formal service line for behavioral health including one psychiatric nurse practitioners, and two psychiatrists who are embedded in primary care offices.Cardiovascular Disease - While we anticipate our Physical Activity, Nutrition, Weight/Healthy Aging priorities will have significant crossover into cardiovascular health, we also have a formalized service line through our Heart and Lung service which includes cardiac rehab and a congestive heart failure clinic. Due to these crossover efforts, Northern Light AR Gould Hospital will not be selecting cardiovascular disease as a priority during this Community Health Needs Assessment cycle. Older Adult Health/Healthy Aging - While not specifically a priority area that was chosen, both access to care and physical activity, nutrition, weight priority areas will incorporate older adult health. We plan to continue our Healthy Aging lunch and learn series. In addition, we will continue to partner with The Agency on Aging to promote older adult health and provide programs to educate and inform seniors of information and services available.
