TO INCLUDE THE VOICES OF THOSE WHO MAY HAVE HAD LIMITED COMPUTER ACCESS, A CONCENTRATED EFFORT WAS MADE TO DISTRIBUTE PRINTED SURVEYS TO RURAL HEALTH COUNCIL PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS AND MERCY COWORKERS. MERCY COLLABORATED WITH DIFFERENT COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS (LAW ENFORCEMENT AND CHURCHES) TO LISTEN TO CAPTURE THE VOICE OF THE VARIOUS ETHNIC GROUPS THAT WERE NOT REPRESENTED WITHIN THE SURVEY RESULTS.

THE COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS ARE A PART OF OR SUPPORT MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, LOW-INCOME, AND/OR MINORITY POPULATIONS. THE MERCY HOSPITAL FORT SMITH HAS CREATED THE RURAL HEALTH COUNCIL MADE UP OF LEADERS FROM THE DIFFERENT MERCY CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITALS - BOONEVILLE, OZARK, PARIS, AND WALDRON - AND COMMUNITY HEALTH AND ACCESS STAFF SERVING THE ENTIRE REGION. THIS GROUP COLLABORATED AND DISCUSSED THE MOST IMPACTFUL NEEDS OF THE REGION THAT WERE WITHIN SCOPE OF CHANGE. THE RURAL HEALTH COUNCIL PINPOINTED THREE MAIN NEEDS: ACCESS TO CARE, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND NUTRITION.

Prioritization of needs was determined by the Mercy Fort Smith Community Health & Access coworkers. The top health needs to the Waldron community are: access to care, behavioral health and nutrition. Access to Care: While facilitating local community focus groups with our marginalized population we discovered that much of the community lacked the resources for obtaining health care services. This remains an issue due to the underinsured or completely uninsured status along with other obstacles to care like transportation. The Scott County Primary Care Physician/Citizen ratio of 3,500:1 far exceeds that of the Arkansas ratio 1,520:1. Accompanying the healthcare coverage issues are the socioeconomic barriers. The $40,897 median family income of the Scott County community stands about twelve thousand dollars less than the state income. Behavioral Health: Local focus groups, meetings and surveys along with national and state data highlight the need for behavioral health. There is an increasing number of youth and adults in the community that are experiencing anxiety problems, suicidal thoughts, and substance abuse. The stakeholder focus group discussion highlighted access Mental Health services was lacking, which is supported by the designation of a Mental Health Provider Shortage area by the Health Resources & Services Administration. These community members also talked about how substance use remains the top social behavior impacting the Waldron region. The substance abuse health crisis is magnified by the prevalence of foster care and high recidivism within the community. Nutrition: The community voice raised various times that nutrition remains extremely impactful. Both local surveys and focus groups put that poor eating habits was the top risk behavior seen in their community and healthy cooking classes being unavailable to help find solutions to these habits. The obesity and diabetes epidemic hitting the region has various causes, one of which is healthy eating and nutrition. The access to fast food and high-caloric/nutrient-poor options also contributes to the weight and chronic health condition prevalence in Waldron. Mercy will work on access to care through our mammography van program that comes into the area at least once a month. Behavioral Health is working with an assessment to see the best way to address this issue in the community. Nutrition will be worked on through health seminars to make sure the community is equipped with the proper education and help raise awareness to this issue. Three assessed health issues identified in the 2019 CHNA process-dental, housing, unemployment-were not chosen as priority focus areas for development of implementation strategies due to Mercy's current lack of resources available to address these needs. These issues will be addressed indirectly in implementation strategies developed to meet the prioritized needs in areas that may overlap. For example, efforts to reduce the incidence of obesity in the community may also reduce the incidence of cancer. Additionally, related community partnerships, evidence-based programming, and sources of financial and other resources will be explored during the next three-year CHIP cycle. Mercy Waldron will consider focusing on these issues should resources become available. Until then, Mercy Waldron will support, as able, the efforts of partner agencies and organizations currently working to address these needs within the community.

FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 22 ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES FOR INCOME ARE THE BASIS FOR DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS. FOR EXAMPLE, INDIVIDUALS WITH INCOMES 100% OR BELOW, THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE CARE. INDIVIDUALS WITH INCOMES GREATER THAN 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR CARE AT DISCOUNTED RATES DEPENDING ON THEIR INCOME LEVEL AND/OR THE AMOUNT DUE TO THE HOSPITAL. TO DETERMINE THE MAXIMUM AMOUNTS THAT CAN BE CHARGED TO FAP-ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUALS FOR EMERGENCY OR OTHER MEDICALLY NECESSARY CARE, THE HOSPITAL FACILITY USES AMOUNTS GENERALLY BILLED TO INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE INSURANCE COVERING SUCH CARE. THE HOSPITAL USES A LOOK BACK METHOD THAT CONSIDERS DISCOUNTS ALLOWED TO MEDICARE AND ALL PRIVATE HEALTH INSURERS. 2 MERCY MANSFIELD 103 HUNTINGTON AVENUE MANSFIELD AR 72944 PRIMARY CARE SMALL MERCY WALDRON CLINIC 1341 W 6TH STREET WALDRON AR 72958 PRIMARY CARE SMALL FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 6A THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT IS PREPARED BY ITS ULTIMATE PARENT ENTITY, MERCY HEALTH (EIN: 43-1423050).

FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A, LINE 3 THE FILING ORGANIZATION DETERMINED THAT THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY IS $0. ALTHOUGH THE CHARITY CARE POLICY REQUIRES THE PARTICIPATION OF THE PATIENT REQUESTING ASSISTANCE, WE HAVE A PROCESS UNDER PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY TO ADDRESS ACCOUNTS FOR PATIENTS WHO DO NOT PROVIDE THE INFORMATION. WE BELIEVE THAT OUR CHARITY POLICY IS COMPREHENSIVE ENOUGH TO CAPTURE ALMOST ALL PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A, LINE 4 In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and International Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The Health System adopted ASU 2014-09 on July 1, 2018 using a full retrospective basis. Upon adoption, the majority of what was previously classified as provision for uncollectible accounts and presented as a reduction to patient service revenue on the consolidated statement of operations and changes in net assets is treated a price concession that reduces the transaction price, which is reported as patient service revenue. As such, bad debt expense is not referenced in Mercy Health and Subsidiaries audited financial statements. BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS TRACKED FOR FORM 990 REPORTING AS FOLLOWS: PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE THAT ARE DEEMED UNCOLLECTIBLE, INCLUDING THOSE PLACED WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES, ARE INITIALLY CHARGED AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH COLLECTION POLICIES OF THE HEALTH SYSTEM AND, IN CERTAIN CASES, ARE RECLASSIFIED TO CHARITY CARE IF DEEMED TO OTHERWISE MEET THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S CHARITY CARE POLICY. THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES IS BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE COVERAGE, AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. PERIODICALLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, MANAGEMENT ASSESSES THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES BASED UPON THE PAYOR COMPOSITION AND AGING OF RECEIVABLES WITH CONSIDERATION OF THE HISTORICAL PAYMENT AND WRITE-OFF EXPERIENCE BY PAYOR CATEGORY. THE RESULTS OF THESE REVIEWS ARE THEN USED TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES TO ESTABLISH AN APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES. AFTER SATISFACTION OF AMOUNTS DUE FROM INSURANCE, THE HEALTH SYSTEM FOLLOWS ESTABLISHED GUIDELINES FOR PLACING PAST-DUE PATIENT BALANCES WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B, LINE 8 IT IS THE POSITION OF MERCY THAT 100% OF ANY SHORTFALL SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THIS AMOUNT REPRESENTS COST OF PROVIDING SERVICES THAT REMAIN UNCOMPENSATED TO THE PROVIDER. THE UNREIMBURSED COSTS OF MEDICARE IS CALCULATED BY THE GROSS CHARGES NET OF THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO LESS ANY PAYMENTS, DEDUCTIONS OR REIMBURSEMENTS USING THE ANNUAL MEDICARE COST REPORT (CMS FORM 2552-96). FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION C, LINE 9B MERCY'S COLLECTION POLICY PROVIDES THAT MERCY WILL PERFORM A REASONABLE COMMUNICATION AND/OR REVIEW OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS AS IT RELATES TO ANY SERVICE PROVIDED AT OUR FACILITIES BEFORE TURNING THE ACCOUNT TO BAD DEBT OR TAKING LEGAL ACTION FOR NONPAYMENT. MERCY ACTIVELY SCRUBS ACCOUNTS FOR PAYOR PLAN COVERAGE, INCLUDING MEDICAID. IN THE EVENT AN ACCOUNT IS TURNED TO COLLECTIONS AND IS IDENTIFIED IN NEED OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCE CHANGES, OR IS NOW REQUESTING ASSISTANCE, THE ACCOUNTS ARE RETURNED BY THE AGENCY AND CONSIDERED FOR CHARITY IF THE PATIENT PROVIDES THE REQUESTED INFORMATION. IF THE PATIENT FAILS TO RETURN THE INFORMATION, THE ACCOUNT WILL QUALIFY FOR COLLECTIONS. MERCY UTILIZES THE EXPERIAN TOOL TO ENHANCE THE ABILITY TO DETERMINE THE CHARITY QUALIFICATION PRIOR TO TURNING TO BAD DEBT, A PROCESS KNOWN AS PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY. MERCY WILL GRANT CHARITY IN SITUATIONS WHERE THERE HAS BEEN AN INABILITY TO OBTAIN INFORMATION FROM PATIENTS OR THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IS NOT COMPLETE ENOUGH TO MAKE A CHARITY DETERMINATION WHEN A PATIENT HAS SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION. IN ADDITION, MERCY UTILIZES THE SAME TOOL TO QUALIFY ACCOUNTS PER THE PRACTICE OF PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY PRIOR TO BAD DEBT PLACEMENT FOR BALANCES IN EXCESS OF $6,500. ALL ACCOUNT BALANCES RELATING TO ACCOUNTS IDENTIFIED BY THE HIGHER BALANCES WILL BE CONSIDERED AND FLAGGED FOR CHARITY IF THERE IS AN INABILITY TO PAY AFTER A RETURN FROM THE COLLECTION AGENCY AT APPROXIMATELY 120 DAYS. MERCY WILL PURSUE APPROPRIATE MEANS IN THE COLLECTION OF DELINQUENT ACCOUNTS FROM PATIENTS WITH AN ESTABLISHED ABILITY TO PAY OR AN UNWILLINGNESS TO COOPERATE IN VALIDATING ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THESE APPROPRIATE MEANS MAY INCLUDE LEGAL ACTION CONSISTENT WITH MERCY MISSION AND VALUES AFTER A SENDING 3 MONTHLY STATEMENTS WITH THE FINAL INCLUDING NOTIFICATION; IF NO RESOLUTION THEY WILL BE TURNED TO COLLECTIONS. ADDITIONALLY, THEY MAY INCLUDE LIENS UPON REAL PROPERTY AND REASONABLE WAGE GARNISHMENTS. LEGAL ACTIONS WILL GENERALLY NOT INCLUDE BANK GARNISHMENTS, REPOSSESSION OF ASSETS OR FORECLOSURES TO ENSURE SATISFACTION OF A LIEN.
