Avera Sacred Heart HospitalPart V, Section B, Line 11: Avera Sacred Heart conducted a community health needs assessment during FY2022. Two significant needs were identified and prioritized in the community health needs assessment process: Behavioral health and substance abuse/addiction and workforce and health care capacity.The following actions were identified and prioritized community health needs:BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE/ADDICTIONIncrease community resources relating to behavioral health with special focus on substance abuse and addiction issues. *It was determined that it was not feasible at this time to pursue an inpatient behavioral health unit at Avera Sacred Heart Hospital. *Advocate for and support the Lewis & Clark Behavioral Health Services, Inc. residential chemical dependency program and unit. Avera Sacred Heart worked with Lewis & Clark Behavioral Health Services, Inc. to create space for their new C.O.R.E. Center located in the Avera Sacred Heart Benedictine Center. C.O.R.E. is an acronym for Crisis Outreach Response Engagement. C.OR.E. opened in FY23 with five beds including one pediatric bed. It is designed to provide immediate, short term Crisis Intervention Services to individuals who have mental health and/or substance use problems. Lewis & Clark Behavioral Health Services, Inc. is working toward offering a detox unit. Avera Sacred Heart continues to support Lewis & Clark's C.O.R.E. Center in the Benedictine Center on the Avera Sacred Heart campus. *Advocate for and support the Lewis & Clark Behavioral Health Services, Inc. as they seek to build a new facility. Lewis & Clark Behavioral Health Services, Inc. broke ground on their new campus in FY23 with an estimated completion timeline for FY25. Avera Sacred Heart provided letters of support and advocacy for Lewis & Clark as they near completion of the new facility. SHH is also pursuing a grant opportunity with Lewis & Clark to expand chemical dependency services and programing. *Avera Sacred Heart continues to actively recruit psychologists and/or psychiatrists with specialties in behavioral health. *Avera Sacred Heart continues to utilize Avera's "Ask the Question: Are you thinking about suicide" campaign. The campaign has been integrated into the care delivery model at Avera Sacred Heart in FY23. *Avera Sacred Heart continues to utilize SBIRT (Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment), an evidence-based practice used to identify, reduce, and prevent problematic use, abuse, and dependence on alcohol and illicit drugs. *Avera Sacred Heart implemented the Edinburgh Scale for depression and suicide screening for OB patients in FY23 and continued to use the screening in FY24. WORKFORCE AND HEALTH CARE CAPACITYIncrease workforce and health care capacity to adequately prepare Avera Sacred Heart to meet the future needs of the community. *Further develop and implement an Avera Sacred Heart version of Avera Academy that fits the Yankton community. Avera Sacred Heart created the Avera Academy Camp in conjunction with the Yankton School District, Mount Marty University, and Yankton Thrive for high school students. The Avera Academy was expanded into a three & a half day program in FY24 to accomodate the needs of the students. *Further develop and implement the Avera Scholars program with Mount Marty University. Eight nursing students were selected as Avera Scholars in FY24. *Develop and implement an Avera Nurse Residency Program at Avera Sacred Heart for new college graduates. In FY24, twelve of the fourteen new nurses elected to participate in the residency program; all twelve are still employed at Avera Sacred Heart. *Develop and implement a Nurse Recruitment Team with the Avera Sacred Heart Endowed Chair of Nursing recipient at Mount Marty University. The Avera Director of Talent Management and the Endowed Chair of Nursing at Mount Marty University have continued to meet regularly. *Utilize Build Dakota Scholarships to build a workforce for Avera Sacred Heart in difficult to recruit positions. Avera Sacred Heart will continue to recruit students for this opportunity. In FY24, Avera Sacred Heart has four students enrolled in Build Dakota Scholarships. The Build Dakota Scholarship offers students a full-ride scholarship at a South Dakota Technical College in certain in-demand industries. *Continue to promote the Avera Student Loan Program benefit and evaluate critical needs for eligibility with the program. Eighty-nine staff members enrolled in the program in FY24. Three hundred seventy-nine job codes were identified as eligible for the program.Many of these activities are continuations of activities the hospital has been conducting related to the prior community health needs assessment.The following health needs were identified but were not selected for focus: Transportation and affordability. Avera Sacred Heart is committed to providing high quality health care services to meet the needs of its service area. Although not the focus, Avera Sacred Heart is actively implementing cost saving initiatives to contain or minimize costs and will continue to advocate for increased transportation availability in the community.

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part I, Line 3c:The methodology used to determine eligibility for financial assistance takes into consideration income, net assets, family size and resources available to pay for care. In addition, presumptive charity care may be applied in situations where all other avenues have been exhausted.
Part I, Line 6a:The community benefit report is prepared by a related organization, Avera Health, and is available to the public at https://www.avera.org/about/annual-report/.
Part I, Line 7:A combination of costing methodology was used to calculate the amounts reported in the table. A cost accounting system was used to calculate Medicaid and Means-tested Government Program expenses and shortfalls and Subsidized Health Services for our tertiary medical center. A cost to charge ratio derived from Worksheet 2, Ratio of Patient Care Cost-to-Charges was used to calculate charity care at cost for all entities and Medicaid and Means-tested Government Program expenses and shortfalls and Subsidized Health Services for any operations outside of the tertiary medical center. For all other amounts, costs and revenues as reflected by the general ledger system were used.
Part II, Community Building Activities:The community building activities include monetary assistance to organizations that focus their efforts on providing furniture for low income families, neighborhood improvement projects in high needs areas, children and youth development programs, local economic development, and job creation and training programs.
Part III, Line 2:The amount on line 2 represents implicit price concessions. The Organization determines its estimate of implicit price concessions based on its historical collection experience with the respective class of patients and residents. During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Organization adjusted the qualifying criteria under the charity care policy, which resulted in a reclassification of accounts considered bad debt in previous years that now qualified as presumptive charity care under the adjusted policy. Implicit price concession for the year of $2,336,842 was reduced for prior year reclassifications of $16,996,984 resulting in a net negative implicit price concession of $14,660,142. Due to the negative implicit price concession per the general ledger, an amount of $0 has been reported on Line 2.
Part III, Line 4:The footnote to the Organization's financial statements that describes implicit price concession is located in the audited financial statement report on pages 19 and 20.
Part III, Line 8:Sacred Heart Health Services provides services to patients under the Medicare program knowing they may not recover all the costs associated with providing these services. Providing these services is essential to these patients and the community and increases their access to healthcare services. Therefore, in years the costs associated with services provided under the Medicare program are not completely covered, the Medicare shortfall is considered a community benefit. Medicare allowable costs of care are based on the FY2023 Medicare cost report. The FY2023 Medicare cost report is completed based on the rules and regulations set forth by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
Part III, Line 9b:If the patient qualifies for the organization's financial assistance policy for low-income, uninsured patients and is cooperating with the organization with regard to efforts to settle an outstanding bill within current self-pay collection policy guidelines and timeframes, the organization or its agent shall not send, nor intimate that it will send, the unpaid bill to any outside collection agency. Avera organizations will allow all individuals 120 days from the first post discharge statement to apply for financial assistance before sending the uncollected account to an outside collection agency. Avera will provide the patient with a statement or final notice that contains a listing of the specific collection action(s) it intends to initiate, and a deadline after which they may be initiated no earlier than 30 days before action is initiated. If the patient qualifies for 100% charity care, no further bills will be sent. A letter will be sent instead indicating that the patient's bill has been completely forgiven.
Part VI, Line 2:Avera Sacred Heart Hospital includes community members on committees, boards, and advisory groups to allow community reaction and input in the actions we take. We also review all data provided by the health departments regarding disease rates, mortality, morbidity, population changes, etc. The hospital also conducts focus groups, consumer perception studies, and patient satisfaction surveys to identify primary needs of the community and responds with preventative/educational information or activities for the community.
Part VI, Line 3:Uninsured patients who hold an inpatient status are counseled by a Patient Advocate to screen them for coverage eligibility and to assist in payer source enrollment. Those that are not eligible are provided a charity care application along with instructions on how to fill out the application. All patients receive statements that indicate who to contact should they need financial assistance. In addition, all patients receive a summary of financial assistance upon registration, as well as in their final statement. Should a patient contact Patient Financial Services and indicate inability to pay, they are transferred to a financial counselor to assist them with the financial assistance application process. Also, inpatient and same day surgery patients receive a brochure in their admissions packet. Pre-collection letters also include information regarding the financial assistance and uninsured programs.
Part VI, Line 4:Avera Sacred Heart is a 69-bed hospital in Yankton, South Dakota. Avera Sacred Heart primarily serves the city and county of Yankton and the counties of Bon Homme, Charles Mix, Hutchinson and Clay in South Dakota and counties of Knox and Cedar in Nebraska. The majority of discharges are from Yankton County. According to the U.S. Census Bureau Quick Facts 2023 data, the estimated population of Yankton County as of July 1, 2023, is 23,517 and is predominately white at 92.0%. It is estimated that 22.4% of the population is 65 years and over. The median household income is $68,847 with an 11.2% poverty rate. Uninsured individuals under age 65 is estimated at 10.1%.
Part VI, Line 5:The Hospital board is comprised of individuals who represent the interests of the community served by the organization. The Hospital offers staff privileges to all qualified physicians in the community. Selected services such as Radiation Oncology and Swing-bed Services would not be available in our service area unless provided by the organization. The Hospital serves all individuals regardless of their ability to pay, providing 24 hours a day emergency service. The facility participates in the education of medical students from The University of South Dakota through their Yankton location. The Hospital also offers a 2-year Radiology Technologist program that graduates approximately 6 students per year. Sacred Heart Hospital also provides clinical education for Mount Marty University students.
Part VI, Line 6:Avera is a sponsored ministry of the Benedictine and Presentation Sisters. The communities in which Avera operates all have unique health and community benefits needs. In keeping with Catholic Health Association guidelines, each Hospital strives to meet its community's identified needs. The corporate staff of Avera Health advocates for all members regarding community benefit related matters of state, regional and national importance.
