BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC.	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: BEGINNING THE WORK IN 2021, BRMH CONDUCTED A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) FOR THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES IN JACKSON COUNTY. THIS ASSESSMENT IS CONTINUALLY UPDATED AS APPROPRIATE AND THE NEXT REPORT OF A FULL ASSESSMENT WILL BE COMPLETED BY DECEMBER 31, 2025. TO COMPLETE THE ASSESSMENT AND WORK PLAN, BRMH WORKED WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMUNITY PARTNERS: JACKSON COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH, HO-CHUNK NATION, JACKSON COUNTY SERVANT LED COMMUNITY, MEDICAL COLLEGE OF WISCONSIN, AND CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN. AN ELECTRONIC COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AND MARKET SURVEY WAS DEPLOYED IN LATE APRIL 2022 AND WAS PROMOTED THROUGH A VARIETY OF CHANNELS. TO ENTICE CITIZENS TO TAKE THE SURVEY, THE FIRST 500 UNIQUE RESPONDENTS RECEIVED A $10.00 GAS CARD. FLYERS PROMOTING THE SURVEY WERE DISTRIBUTED THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY TO RETAIL OUTLETS AND COMMUNITY GATHERING SPOTS SUCH AS THE LUNDA COMMUNITY CENTER AND THE BLACK RIVER FALLS PUBLIC LIBRARY. 500 FLYERS WERE DISTRIBUTED AT THE LOCAL HANSEN'S IGA GROCERY STORE TO BE STUFFED INTO SHOPPERS' BAGS. EMAIL LIST-SERVE GROUPS, SUCH AS AREA CHURCHES, AND LOCAL SERVICE GROUPS SUCH AS THE ROTARY CLUB RECEIVED THE FLYER ENCOURAGING PARTICIPATION. BRMH PROMOTED THE SURVEY ON THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA CHANNELS, AND WEBSITE, AND PROMOTED IT INTERNALLY ENCOURAGING STAFF TO PARTICIPATE. TO CAPTURE FEEDBACK FROM THE MOST VULNERABLE POPULATIONS IN JACKSON COUNTY, STAFF VISITED ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES, SENIOR CENTERS, AND LARGE EMPLOYERS OF THE SPANISH-SPEAKING POPULATION. ULTIMATELY, THE SURVEY WAS TAKEN BY ABOUT 1,500 PARTICIPANTS. A TWO-PART COMMUNITY FORUM WAS HELD ON SEPTEMBER 29TH AND OCTOBER 13TH, 2022, AT THE JACKSON COUNTY HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES BUILDING WITH A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN ATTENDANCE. A FOCUS GROUP MADE UP OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS, BUSINESS LEADERS, AND REPRESENTATIVES FROM OTHER COMMUNITY RESOURCE PROVIDERS, WAS PRESENTED WITH THE DATA FROM THE 2022 SURVEY AND THE TOP COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED. TOP FOUR HEALTH NEEDS: FAMILY AND COMMUNITY RESOURCE AWARENESS AND ACCESS, MENTAL HEALTH SUICIDE AND SELF-HARM, AND MENTAL HEALTH ACCESS, AND HEALTHCARE ACCESS, AVAILABILITY, AND AFFORDABILITY. AS THE ONLY HOSPITAL IN JACKSON COUNTY, BRMH LEADERSHIP AND MEMBERS OF THE BRMH COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CHIP) WORK TEAM DECIDED TO FOCUS ON THE FOLLOWING HEALTH NEEDS: MENTAL HEALTH SUICIDE AND SELF-HARM, MENTAL HEALTH ACCESS, AND HEALTHCARE ACCESS, AVAILABILITY, AND AFFORDABILITY.

PART I, LINE 6A:	BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. PREPARES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT ANNUALLY AND FILES IT WITH THE WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION (WHA). THE REPORT IS AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC ON WHA'S DATABASE AND WEBSITE.
PART I, LINE 7:	THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED ON FORM 990 IS BASED ON A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WHICH IS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE HOSPITAL'S TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES LESS THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS APPLIED AGAINST VARIOUS REVENUE AND EXPENSE CATEGORIES TO COMPUTE THE ESTIMATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE UNDER IRS SUGGESTED COSTING METHODS FOR THE FORM 990.
PART I, LINE 7G:	SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES AT BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. INCLUDE THE OPERATION OF THE HOSPITAL'S CLINIC, INPATIENT NURSING UNIT AND EMERGENCY ROOM, AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY BASED HOSPICE AND HOMECARE PROGRAMS. THE SUBSIDIZED INPATIENT UNIT INCLUDES THE MEDICAL/SURGICAL, OBSERVATION, AND HOSPITALIST NURSING UNITS. THE HOSPITAL INPATIENT UNIT DEPARTMENT AND EMERGENCY ROOM OPERATES 24-HOURS PER DAY SEVEN DAYS PER WEEK AND IS STAFFED BY A GROUP OF HIGHLY TRAINED STAFF INCLUDING HOSPITALIST PHYSICIANS, REGISTERED NURSES, AND OTHER SUPPORT STAFF. MANY OF THE ADMISSIONS TO THE HOSPITAL INPATIENT NURSING UNIT COME FROM THE HOSPITAL'S EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT WHICH IS OPERATED TO PROVIDE EMERGENCY CARE TO PATIENTS OF THE COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREAS. THE HOSPICE AND HOMECARE PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED AS COMMUNITY SUPPORT SERVICES TO THE AREA OF JACKSON COUNTY, WISCONSIN. JACKSON COUNTY IS A LARGE COUNTY IN WISCONSIN AND OFTEN SIGNIFICANT TRAVEL AND EFFORTS ARE NEEDED TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES TO PATIENTS IN THE MOST COMFORTABLE SETTING WHICH IS THEIR HOMES. ALL OF THESE SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES WORK IN SUPPORT AND COOPERATION WITH THE COMBINED EFFORTS OF BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. AND SHARE MANY SUPPORT FUNCTIONS OF THE HOSPITAL IN AN EFFORT TO PROVIDE EXCELLENT, LOW COST CARE TO PATIENTS IN THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITY AND AREA. A SIGNIFICANT PAYOR FOR THESE PROGRAMS IS THE MEDICARE PROGRAM WHICH DOES NOT REIMBURSE THE HOSPITAL FOR THESE SERVICES IN ALL CASES BASED ON COST SO A SIGNIFICANT LOSS IS ABSORBED BY THE HOSPITAL TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES TO MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. IT IS THE GOAL OF BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY REGARDLESS OF A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY.THE COSTING METHODOLOGY FOR SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES IS BASED ON THE COSTING METHODS USED ON THE HOSPITAL'S MEDICARE COST REPORT. THIS METHODOLOGY PROVIDES FOR A DIRECT ALLOCATION OF EXPENSES AS WELL AS PROVIDING THE SAME DATA TO THE MEDICARE PROGRAM AS WELL AS TO THE IRS FOR FORM 990 PURPOSES.
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES:	OUR HOSPITAL PROVIDES FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS AS DEFINED BY THE IRS. BUT IN ADDITION, WE BELIEVE THAT WE PROVIDE A CRITICALLY IMPORTANT COMMUNITY BENEFIT WHICH IS NOT QUANTIFIED. OUR HOSPITAL, LIKE MOST RURAL HOSPITALS, WAS CREATED AND IS MAINTAINED IN ORDER TO PROVIDE LOCAL ACCESS TO MANY HEALTH SERVICES: BIRTHING CENTER, DIAGNOSTICS, EMERGENCY SERVICES AND SAME DAY APPOINTMENTS THROUGH THE BLACK RIVER HEALTHCARE CLINIC, HOME CARE, HOSPICE, INFUSION SERVICES, INPATIENT CARE, LABORATORY SERVICES, OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH, REHABILITATION SERVICES, SPECIALTY MEDICINE, SPEECH, SURGICAL SERVICES, AND WOMEN'S HEALTH.
PART III, LINE 2:	THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED ON FORM 990 IS BASED ON A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO, WHICH IS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE HOSPITAL'S TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES EXCLUDING THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT, DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS APPLIED AGAINST THE TOTAL CHARGES THAT ARE WRITTEN OFF DURING THE YEAR TO ESTIMATE THE COST OF CARE OF PATIENTS WHO HAVE ACCOUNTS THAT ARE DEEMED TO BE BAD DEBTS TO THE HOSPITAL. THE HOSPITAL ALSO RECOGNIZES THAT IT ALSO PROVIDES A DISCOUNT TO SELF-PAY OR UNINSURED PATIENTS. THESE AMOUNTS ARE EXCLUDED FROM GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RATIO AS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND APPROVED BY THE IRS FOR USE ON FORM 990. IF CONSIDERED, THESE ADDITIONAL WRITE-OFF AMOUNTS TO UNINSURED ACCOUNTS WOULD ALSO INCREASE THE ESTIMATED BAD DEBT EXPENSE AMOUNT ASSOCIATED WITH THESE UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS TO THE HOSPITAL.
PART III, LINE 3:	MANAGEMENT PROVIDES FOR PROBABLE UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS, PRIMARILY UNINSURED PATIENTS AND AMOUNTS PATIENTS ARE PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR, THROUGH A CHARGE TO OPERATIONS AND A CREDIT TO A VALUATION ALLOWANCE BASED ON ITS ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL COLLECTION LIKELIHOOD AND THE CURRENT STATUS OF INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS. BALANCES THAT ARE STILL OUTSTANDING AFTER THE HOSPITAL HAS USED REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE WRITTEN OFF THROUGH A CHARGE TO THE VALUATION ALLOWANCE AND A CREDIT TO ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE.
PART III, LINE 4:	ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND CREDIT POLICY: IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE HOSPITAL ANALYZES PAST RESULTS AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS DATA ABOUT THESE MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. SPECIFICALLY, FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, THE HOSPITAL ANALYZES CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS FOR EXPECTED UNCOLLECTIBLE DEDUCTIBLES AND COPAYMENTS ON ACCOUNTS FOR WHICH THE THIRD-PARTY PAYOR HAS NOT YET PAID, OR FOR PAYORS AND PATIENTS WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE HAVING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES THAT MAKE THE REALIZATION OF AMOUNTS DUE UNLIKELY. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS (WHICH INCLUDES BOTH PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE AND PATIENTS WITH DEDUCTIBLE AND COPAYMENT BALANCES DUE FOR WHICH THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE EXISTS FOR PART OF THE BILL), THE HOSPITAL RECORDS A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IN THE PERIOD OF SERVICE ON THE BASIS OF ITS PAST EXPERIENCE, WHICH INDICATES THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE STANDARD RATES (OR THE DISCOUNTED RATES IF NEGOTIATED) AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT INCLUDE A SEPARATE FOOTNOTE REGARDING BAD DEBT EXPENSE.
PART III, LINE 8:	BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. IS DESIGNATED AS A CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL AND AS SUCH A PORTION OF ITS MEDICARE REVENUES ARE PAID UNDER A COST REIMBURSEMENT SYSTEM. THE TOTAL MEDICARE REVENUE SHOWN BASED ON THE IRS 990 INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDES GROSS MEDICARE REVENUE BUT DOES NOT CONSIDER CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT THAT IS ACTUALLY RECEIVED FROM THE MEDICARE PROGRAM. THE AMOUNTS LISTED FOR MEDICARE ALSO DOES NOT INCLUDE PHYSICIAN SERVICES FOR THE COVERAGE OF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AT THE HOSPITAL AS WELL AS RADIOLOGIST, RESPIRATORY THERAPY, URGENT CARE, OR ANESTHESIA PROFESSIONAL SERVICES. PHYSICIAN COVERAGE IS REIMBURSED PRIMARILY ON A FEE SCHEDULE REIMBURSEMENT AT RATES THAT ARE OFTEN BELOW THE COSTS OF CARING FOR PATIENTS. EMERGENCY SERVICES PROVIDED TO MEDICARE PATIENTS ARE VITAL TO THE WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITY AND AS SUCH THESE COSTS AND SHORTFALLS SHOULD ALSO BE CONSIDERED AS AN ADDITIONAL BENEFIT THAT BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. PROVIDES TO THE COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREA OF JACKSON COUNTY, WISCONSIN. THE COSTING METHOD USED ABOVE FOR IRS 990 COMPLIANCE REPORTING IS ALSO BASED ON AN OVERALL AVERAGE COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO AND DOES NOT CONSIDER MEDICARE NON-ALLOWABLE EXPENSES AS IT IS BASED ON TOTAL HOSPITAL PATIENT SERVICE REVENUES (IGNORING CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS ON FEE SCHEDULE REIMBURSED ITEMS AND NON-ALLOWABLE MEDICARE EXPENSES AS NOTED ABOVE) DIVIDED BY TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES LESS THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT EXPENSE. THIS RATIO IS THEN MULTIPLIED BY THE TOTAL MEDICARE SERVICES WHICH ARE REIMBURSED ON A COST METHODOLOGY EXCLUDING THE FEE SCHEDULE ITEMS LIKE PHYSICIAN SERVICES WHICH THE HOSPITAL WOULD SHOW A LARGE LOSS ON THESE SERVICES.
PART III, LINE 9B:	UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S COLLECTION AND COMMUNITY CARE POLICIES, BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. MAKES EVERY ATTEMPT TO IDENTIFY AND PROMOTE CHARITY CARE TO PATIENTS. INCLUDED IN THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY CARE POLICY IT IS NOTED THAT PATIENTS MAY QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE EITHER PRIOR TO ADMISSION OR FOLLOWING DISCHARGE. ALL INPATIENT SELF-PAY ADMISSIONS ARE SCREENED BY THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL COUNSELOR TO ALLOW THESE PATIENTS THE ABILITY TO COMPLETE THEIR APPLICATION DURING THEIR STAY AT THE HOSPITAL, DEPENDING UPON THE PATIENT'S CONDITION, OR THE PATIENT'S RESPONSIBLE PARTY MAY BE CONTACTED TO COMPLETE AND RETURN THE FORMS AT A LATER TIME WHEN THEIR CARE ALLOWS THIS COMPLETION.
PART VI, LINE 2:	EVERY THREE YEARS, BRMH CONSIDERS OUR COMMUNITY'S MOST PRESSING HEALTH NEEDS BY CONDUCTING A COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA). THE 2022 ASSESSMENT WAS COMPLETED BY A GROUP OF HOSPITAL EMPLOYEES AND INCLUDES QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DATA THAT SERVE TO GUIDE BOTH OUR COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND STRATEGIC PLANNING. THROUGH OUR CHNA, BRMH HAS IDENTIFIED THE GREATEST HEALTH NEEDS IN OUR HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITIES ENABLING BRMH TO ENSURE OUR RESOURCES ARE APPROPRIATELY DIRECTED TOWARD OUTREACH, PREVENTION, EDUCATION, AND WELLNESS OPPORTUNITIES WHERE THE GREATEST IMPACT CAN BE ACHIEVED. OUR TOP THREE NEEDS ARE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE (INCLUDING MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER), OBESITY, AND DEMENTIA/ALZHEIMER'S CARE.
PART VI, LINE 3:	UNINSURED AND UNDER INSURED PATIENTS ARE ASKED TO MEET WITH ONE OF THE HOSPITAL'S PATIENT FINANCIAL ADVOCATES EITHER AT THE TIME SERVICE IS PROVIDED OR WHEN THE PATIENT'S BILL IS GENERATED. THE PATIENT FINANCIAL ADVOCATE EXPLAINS THE VARIOUS PAYMENT OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO THE PATIENT AS WELL AS THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AND OFFERS THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION WHEN APPROPRIATE. IF OTHER PROGRAMS ARE AVAILABLE TO THE PATIENT, SUCH AS THE WISCONSIN MEDICAL ASSISTANCE OR BADGER CARE PROGRAMS, THESE PATIENTS ARE REFERRED TO THE APPROPRIATE GOVERNMENT AGENCY FOR FURTHER ASSISTANCE.
PART VI, LINE 4:	THE PRIMARY SERVICE AREA FOR BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. ENCOMPASSES ALL PERSONS LIVING WITHIN A 30-MILE RADIUS OF THE HOSPITAL. THIS AREA INCLUDES JACKSON COUNTY AND PARTS OF EAU CLAIRE, MONROE, LA CROSSE, TREMPEALEAU, WOOD, ADAMS, AND CLARK COUNTIES.

THE HO-CHUNK NATION ALSO IS ABLE TO ACCESS CARE AT THE HOSPITAL AT REDUCED RATES THROUGH A REGULATION KNOWN AS THE "MEDICARE-LIKE PAYMENTS RULE." THE HOSPITAL ALSO IS THE MAIN SUPPLIER OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO FIVE STATE OPERATED INSTITUTIONS WHICH ARE OPERATED BY THE WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS. THE STATE OF WISCONSIN ALSO REIMBURSES THE HOSPITAL AT RATES BELOW THE GENERAL PUBLIC TO REDUCE COSTS PASSED ON TO TAXPAYER IN THE STATE.
PART VI, LINE 5:	AS A COMMUNITY-OWNED HOSPITAL, BLACK RIVER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. CONTINUES TO BE PROACTIVELY INVOLVED WITH AREA COMMUNITY MEMBERS THROUGH A VARIETY OF EDUCATIONAL FORUMS, SUPPORT GROUPS, WELLNESS AND SAFETY FAIRS, PRE-NATAL AND BREASTFEEDING CLASSES. OTHER SUPPORT GROUPS NOT ONLY INCLUDE DIABETES AND BEREAVEMENT.
