NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA HEALTH CORPORATION	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA), LVHN DEFINES THE COMMUNITY IT SERVES AS ALL INDIVIDUALS LIVING WITHIN THE COUNTIES THAT CONTAIN OUR HOSPITAL CAMPUSES. LVHN IS REQUIRED TO PRODUCE A CHNA HEALTH PROFILE FOR EACH OF OUR LICENSED FACILITIES IN ORDER TO ADDRESS THE LOCAL CONTEXT OF THE DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. THEREFORE, LVHN HAS PRODUCED FOUR CHNA HEALTH PROFILES FOR OUR FOUR DIFFERENT LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL CAMPUSES: LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - CEDAR CREST, 17TH STREET, AND MUHLENBERG, LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - SCHUYLKILL, LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - HAZLETON, AND LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - POCONO. FOR LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - CEDAR CREST, 17TH STREET, AND MUHLENBERG, THE COMMUNITY IS DEFINED AS LEHIGH AND NORTHAMPTON COUNTIES (ALSO KNOWN AS THE LEHIGH VALLEY). WE ADDITIONALLY ASSESSED HEALTH NEEDS WITHIN THE CITY OF ALLENTOWN TO REFLECT THE URBAN COMMUNITY SURROUNDING OUR 17TH STREET CAMPUS. FOR LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - SCHUYLKILL, THE HEALTH PROFILE PRESENTS THE HEALTH NEEDS OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN SCHUYLKILL COUNTY. FOR LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - HAZLETON, THE CHNA HEALTH PROFILE PROVIDES INFORMATION ABOUT THE HEALTH NEEDS FOR LUZERNE COUNTY WITH SPECIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE CITY OF HAZLETON WHERE IT WAS AVAILABLE. FINALLY, FOR LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - POCONO, THE COMMUNITY IS DEFINED AS RESIDENTS WITHIN MONROE COUNTY.WITHIN THE ENTIRE GEOGRAPHIC POPULATION THAT MAKES UP THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE, WE PLACE A GREATER EMPHASIS ON INCLUDING INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY WHO ARE EXPERIENCING HEALTH DISPARITIES TO A GREATER EXTENT OR WHO ARE AT-RISK FOR NEGATIVE HEALTH OUTCOMES AS A RESULT OF THE SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLUENCING THEIR HEALTH.IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED THAT THE CLINICAL CARE PROVIDED TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS ONLY ACCOUNTS FOR A SMALL PORTION OF AN INDIVIDUAL'S OVERALL HEALTH. THERE ARE MANY OTHER FACTORS THAT OCCUR OUTSIDE THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE AND HOSPITAL WALLS THAT INFLUENCE HEALTH BEYOND MEDICAL CARE. THEY INCLUDE:- SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC FACTORS, SUCH AS EDUCATION, EMPLOYMENT, AND SOCIAL SUPPORT- PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT FACTORS, SUCH AS HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, AND AIR QUALITY- HEALTH BEHAVIORS, SUCH AS SMOKING, DRINKING, DIET, AND EXERCISETHEREFORE, THE CHNA HEALTH PROFILE PROVIDES INFORMATION ABOUT HEALTH CARE AS WELL AS OTHER HEALTH FACTORS FOLLOWED BY HEALTH OUTCOMES. THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF DATA INCLUDED IN THE CHNA HEALTH PROFILES. THE FIRST TYPE IS QUANTITATIVE DATA, OR NUMBERS AND STATISTICS ABOUT THE OVERALL POPULATION IN THE COMMUNITY. THESE STATISTICS COME FROM A VARIETY OF LOCAL, STATE AND NATIONAL SOURCES INCLUDING THE CENSUS, THE CENTER FOR DISEASE CONTROL, THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, AND THE CENTERS FOR MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SERVICES. A MAJORITY OF THESE DATA POINTS ARE COMPILED TOGETHER THROUGH A PLATFORM CALLED THE CARES ENGAGEMENT NETWORK HEALTH PLAN TOOL, WHICH LVHN USES AS THE STARTING POINT FOR ITS CHNA HEALTH PROFILES, ADDING OTHER KEY STATE AND LOCAL DATA SOURCES TO THE DATA PROVIDED THROUGH THIS HEALTH REPORT.IN ADDITION, NON-PROFIT HOSPITAL SYSTEMS ARE REQUIRED TO OBTAIN INPUT FROM INDIVIDUALS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY, INCLUDING THOSE WITH PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTISE AND THE VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. LVHN CHOSE TO OBTAIN THIS INPUT THROUGH FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND LEADERS. THIS TYPE OF DATA IS REFERRED TO AS QUALITATIVE DATA. WE PARTNERED WITH AN EXTERNAL COMMUNITY COLLABORATOR FOR EACH CAMPUS WHO HAS EXPERIENCE IN QUALITATIVE DATA COLLECTION TO CONDUCT THESE FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS ON LVHN'S BEHALF. THIS PROCESS PROVIDED COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH AN INDEPENDENT AND OBJECTIVE OPPORTUNITY TO IDENTIFY AND SHARE THEIR PERSONAL EXPERIENCES AND PERSPECTIVE ON THE MOST PRESSING HEALTH NEEDS FACING THEIR COMMUNITY AS WELL AS WHERE THEY WOULD LIKE LVHN TO FOCUS ITS ATTENTION. IN LUZERNE COUNTY, LVH-HAZLETON PARTNERED WITH THE INSTITUTE FOR PUBLIC POLICY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, A RESEARCH PARTNERSHIP OF 12 COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES IN THE SCRANTON/WILKES-BARRE/HAZLETON METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREA. FOUR FOCUS GROUPS AND 3 INTERVIEWS WERE CONDUCTED BETWEEN JUNE AND AUGUST 2018 WITH A TOTAL OF 42 PARTICIPANTS IN LUZERNE COUNTY.BELOW IS A SUMMARY OF THE ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTED IN THE LUZERNE COUNTY FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEW AS WELL AS A SUMMARY OF THE DEMOGRAPHICS OF THOSE WHO PARTICIPATED. RESIDENTS, INCLUDING THOSE FROM LOW-INCOME POPULATIONS, WERE ALSO INCLUDED IN THE FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEW IN EACH COUNTY.ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTED:HAZLETON AREA SCHOOL DISTRICTHAZLETON CHAMBER OF COMMERCE HAZLETON HEALTH & WELLNESS CENTER HAZLETON INTEGRATION PROJECT HAZLETON ONE COMMUNITY CENTER UNITED WAY OF GREATER HAZLETON DEMOGRAPHICS:GENDER: 45% FEMALE, 55% MALERACE/ETHNICITY: 37.8% HISPANIC (OF ANY RACE), 62.2% WHITE NON-HISPANICEMPLOYMENT: 34.8% RETIRED OR NOT EMPLOYED, 65.2% EMPLOYED

PART VI, LINE 2:	IN AN EFFORT TO IMPROVE THE OVERALL HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITY, ALL NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS AND HEALTH SYSTEMS MUST IDENTIFY AND EVALUATE THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE THROUGH A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) EVERY THREE YEARS. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE CHNA, LEHIGH VALLEY HEALTH NETWORK (LVHN) DEFINES "COMMUNITY" AS ALL RESIDENTS LIVING WITHIN THE PRIMARY COUNTIES EACH LICENSED FACILITY SERVES, NAMELY LEHIGH, NORTHAMPTON, SCHUYLKILL, LUZERNE, AND MONROE COUNTIES IN PENNSYLVANIA. THE CHNA HEALTH PROFILE INCLUDES SECONDARY DATA PULLED TOGETHER FROM PUBLICALLY AVAILABLE, STATE AND LOCAL SOURCES SUCH AS THE CENTER FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND THE CENSUS BUREAU. THIS DATA WAS USED TO IDENTIFY THE TOP HEALTH AND SOCIAL NEEDS IN EACH IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY. LVHN THEN PARTNERED WITH COMMUNITY AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS TO OBTAIN INPUT (PRIMARY DATA) FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN EACH COUNTY IN ORDER TO VALIDATE THE FINDINGS OF THE SECONDARY DATA COLLECTION. THESE COMMUNITY PARTNERS CONDUCTED FOCUS GROUPS AND KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS TO REVIEW THE FINDINGS OF THE SECONDARY DATA COLLECTION AND ALLOW THE COMMUNITY TO IDENTIFY ANY OTHER NEEDS NOT MENTIONED. THE SECONDARY AND PRIMARY DATA WERE THEN COMBINED INTO ONE HEALTH PROFILE FOR EACH COUNTY, WHICH PROVIDES AN OVERVIEW OF THE CURRENT STATE OF HEALTH IN EACH OF THE COUNTIES LVHN SERVES. THESE REPORTS WERE REVIEWED BY LVHN EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP AT EACH CAMPUS, AND INITIAL HEALTH NEEDS WERE PRIORITIZED BASED ON THE COMMUNITIES INPUT AND LVHN'S ABILITY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE ON THAT HEALTH NEED. AS PART OF THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, STARTING IN 2013, ALL NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS AND HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS ARE REQUIRED TO CONDUCT A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) EVERY THREE YEARS. THE CHNA REPORT EXAMINES THE FACTORS THAT IMPACT THE HEALTH AND WELLNESS OF ALL THE PEOPLE IN A PARTICULAR GEOGRAPHIC AREA. BEYOND ITS REGULATORY FUNCTION, THE CHNA IS AN IMPORTANT OVERVIEW OF THE CURRENT STATE OF HEALTH IN OUR REGION AND IDENTIFIES POTENTIAL AREAS OF CONCERN WHICH INFORMS LEHIGH VALLEY HEALTH NETWORK'S (LVHN) POPULATION HEALTH MANAGEMENT EFFORTS. LVHN'S CHNA INCLUDES A HEALTH PROFILE, A REPORT THAT LOOKS AT ALL OF THE FACTORS THAT GO INTO MAKING PEOPLE IN A PARTICULAR AREA HEALTHY. THIS INCLUDES SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS LIKE EMPLOYMENT, EDUCATION AND AIR QUALITY, INDIVIDUAL BEHAVIORS LIKE SMOKING OR HEALTHY EATING, AND THE QUALITY AND AVAILABILITY OF HEALTH CARE IN THEIR AREA. THIS INTRODUCTION PROVIDES AN OVERVIEW OF THE 2019 CHNA HEALTH PROFILE AND LVHN'S CHNA PROCESS. THE 2019 HEALTH PROFILE COMBINES DATA AND INFORMATION FROM LOCAL, STATE AND NATIONAL SOURCES ABOUT DISEASE, THE ENVIRONMENT, SOCIAL FACTORS AND INDIVIDUAL BEHAVIORS, WITH IDEAS, STORIES, AND EXPERIENCES FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND LEADERS FROM THROUGHOUT THE COUNTIES SERVED BY LVHN. THE SECOND COMPONENT OF THE LVHN'S CHNA INCLUDES AN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, WHICH OUTLINES OUR PLAN TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE HEALTH PROFILE OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEXT THREE YEARS. THE 2019 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN WILL BE SHARED AS A SEPARATE REPORT SOON AFTER THE HEALTH PROFILES ARE RELEASED.THE 2019 LVHN CHNA HEALTH PROFILE IS BROKEN OUT INTO THREE PRIMARY SECTIONS: DEMOGRAPHICS, HEALTH FACTORS, AND HEALTH OUTCOMES. THE DEMOGRAPHICS SECTION INCLUDES INFORMATION THAT PROVIDES A DESCRIPTION OF THE INDIVIDUALS LIVING IN THE COMMUNITY. THE HEALTH FACTORS SECTION INCLUDES INFORMATION ABOUT SOCIAL FACTORS, ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS, HEALTH BEHAVIORS, AND THE QUALITY AND AVAILABILITY OF HEALTH CARE IN THE AREA. THE FINAL SECTION, HEALTH OUTCOMES, LOOKS AT THE OCCURRENCE OF CHRONIC CONDITIONS, SUCH AS ASTHMA AND HEART DISEASE, AS WELL AS RATES OF CANCER AND THE LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH. TO INCREASE THE READABILITY OF THE REPORT, THE COMMUNITY WILL FIND THREE TYPES OF CALL-OUT BOXES THROUGHOUT THE CHNA HEALTH PROFILES. THE FIRST TYPE SUMMARIZES SOME OF THE DATA PRESENTED ON THAT PAGE IN ORDER TO PROVIDE EASY-TO-READ, SUMMARY STATEMENTS OF IMPORTANT DATA ABOUT THE COMMUNITY. THESE SUMMARY STATEMENTS ARE ALSO COMPILED INTO ONE LIST AT THE END OF THE HEALTH PROFILE. THE SECOND TYPE PROVIDES INFORMATION FROM THE INTERVIEWS AND FOCUS GROUPS. THE THIRD TYPE OF CALL-OUT BOX HIGHLIGHTS DATA SPECIFIC TO LVHN PATIENTS, WHERE IT WAS RELEVANT. THESE REPORTS HAVE BEEN REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY LVHN'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY RELATIONS COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD.VISIT WWW.LVHN.ORG/ABOUT_US TO VIEW THE SIGNIFICANT NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN OUR MOST RECENTLY CONDUCTED CHNA AND HOW WE ARE ADDRESSING THOSE NEEDS.
