| Northwestern Medical Center | Part V, Section B, Line 5: As part of our 2018/19 (FY'19) Community Health Needs Assessment, NMC gathered input in a variety of ways including interviews with physicians, providers, and community partners; perspectives from staff and volunteers; discussions with the Incorporators from throughout our service area; patient satisfaction insights; and utilization trend analysis. Significant input, perspective, and prioritization were received through a local group of experts who were asked to validate the direction and findings of the assessment and to establish priority among various identified issues. The composition of this group of community members aligns with the Federal regulations for involvement of community leaders with specified skills or representing specified constituencies and allows for them to use their connections to their neighbors and clientele and insights there in to assist in refining and prioritizing the community health needs. |
| Northwestern Medical Center | Part V, Section B, Line 7d: In addition to making the Community Health Needs Assessment widely available via the hospital website and in response to requests, Northwestern Medical Center provided overviews of the Community Health Needs Assessment to members of the community through presentations at groups such as the NMC Incorporators (150 local members who elect the hospital Board); the Boards of Directors of Northwestern Medical Center, Franklin County Home Health Agency; Northwestern Counseling & Support Services, NOTCH (Northern Tier Centers for Health Federally Qualified Health Centers); and the St. Albans Rotary comprised of business and civic leaders from across the region; and via Health Beat, NMC's public access television show. The priorities of the Community Health Needs Assessment are frequently referenced in other hospital documents, plans, publications, and presentations as we work to integrate these findings into our efforts to care for our community. |
| Northwestern Medical Center | Part V, Section B, Line 11: NMC is addressing the significant needs identified in its most recently conducted CHNA through a variety of initiatives including: the RiseVT community campaign to embrace healthy lifestyles; the modernization of the NMC Emergency Department; the expansion of access to and integration of addiction services; continuation and strengthening of partnerships for local mental health care and advocacy for proper inpatient mental health care infrastructure at the state level; continued emphasis on tobacco prevention and cessation with expansion to address vaping; support of community-based efforts related to suicide (including the Afterglow Awareness & Fundraising event for Northwestern Counseling & Support Services); support of community-based efforts related to sexual and domestic abuse (including the Laurie's House and Voices Against Violence); support of community-based efforts related to food insecurity (including Healthy Roots, Northwest Family Foods, and Martha's Kitchen); and other strategies aligning with awareness, education, resource allocation, and collaboration. All of the top priorities identified are being addressed in some fashion by the hospital.NMC's most recent CHNA also addressed additional items that impact the community but were not ranked as top priorities, including: Prevention & Wellness Education, Access and Affordability of Care, Cancer, Physical Activity, Dental Care, Alcohol Use, Chronic Pain Management, ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences) & Trauma, Diabetes, Housing, Transportation, Heart Disease, Parent Education/Support, Accidents, Stroke, Health Equity, Women's Health, Alzheimer's, and Kidney Disease. The prevention messaging of NMC's RiseVT community campaign to embrace healthy lifestyles extends to many of these. Many of these are also addressed through NMC's Primary Care, Pediatrics, and other medical specialty practices. NMC's support of the United Way of Northwest Vermont and other important community partners also helps address these important but not top priority items. NMC's actions in these areas are tracked through normal operations rather than through the CHNA action plan which is focused on the top priorities. The hospital does not intend to develop a CHNA implementation plan for these lower ranked needs for the following reasons: 1. Actions required are beyond the mission of NMC;2. NMC can be more effective applying its resources to higher priority needs;3. The Hospital does not possess the expertise necessary for substantive positive improvement;4. Actions contemplated for implementation fall more appropriately to the responsibility of others;5. Other than providing encouragement, implementation efforts for some needs require appropriate actions by individuals modifying their personal habits rather than a response by an organization or the Hospital; and6. The best use of NMC resources is to focus on resolving or improving higher priority needs rather than attempting to respond to everything with small, perhaps ineffective, efforts. |

| Part I, Line 3c: | Determining eligibility for free care and/or discounted care is not solely determined by Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG). Other considerations, such as net worth, other financial obligations, and outstanding medical bills are reviewed in addition to income. |
| Part I, Line 7g: | Subsidized health services includes the Medicare shortfall from physician practices that are not included in the Hospital's cost reporting reflected on Part III, Line 7. |
| Part III, Line 4: | Patient accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to operations and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of individual accounts and historical adjustments. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to patient accounts receivable.In evaluating the collectibility of accounts receivable, the Hospital analyzes past results and identifies trends for each major payor source of revenue for the purpose of estimating the appropriate amounts of the allowance for doubtful accounts and the provision for bad debts. Data in each major payor source are regularly reviewed to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. For receivables relating to services provided to patients having third-party coverage, the Hospital analyzes contractually due amounts and provides an allowance for doubtful accounts and a corresponding provision for bad debts at varying levels based on the age of the receivables and the payor source. For receivables relating to self-pay patients (which includes both patients without insurance and patients with deductibles, and copayment balances due for which third-party coverage exists for part of the bills), the Hospital records a provision for bad debts in the period of service based on past experience which indicates patients are unable or unwilling to pay amounts for which they are financially responsible. The difference between the standard rates (or the discounted rates if negotiated or eligible) and the amounts actually collected after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted is charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts. |
| Part III, Line 8: | The cost was determined using the cost to charge ratio.The Medicare shortfall of $9,274,182 reported on line 7 of Part III, does not represent all Medicare services provided by the Hospital, as required by IRS instructions. When taking all Medicare services into account, the Hospital calculated a different Medicare shortfall using an internal costing methodology. |
| Part III, Line 9b: | During the collection process, financial assistance, a payment plan or a discount may be offered to the patient, if appropriate, and in accordance with established hospital policy. |
| Part VI, Line 2: | In alignment with the Federal mandate, Northwestern Medical Center conducted a comprehensive Community Health Needs Assessment in 2019. This document was formally approved by the Hospital's Board of Directors at their May 1, 2019 meeting, placing it in the Hospital's 2019 Fiscal Year. This document replaces the previous Community Health Needs Assessment which was approved in the Hospital's 2016 Fiscal Year.Seven top priorities were identified: Mental Health; Substance Abuse; Obesity; Suicide; Domestic/Sexual Assault; Food Insecurities; and Smoking & Vaping - and action plans have been created to help address each of these priorities. The current (and previous) assessment is available free of charge on the Hospital website and the Hospital's Community Relations Office is available to provide free printed copies as requested. |
| Part VI, Line 3: | The Hospital uses a variety of methods of communication to inform and educate patients about its financial assistance program. For example, information related to financial assistance and charity care is available on the Hospital's website and patient portal, included on the back of patient statements, posted on signs at registration areas, and patients may speak on the phone with a collection specialist. The Hospital's financial assistance program is also widely publicized within the community, including published information regularly placed in the local newspaper and information brochures displayed at local United Way and Department of Health offices. |
| Part VI, Line 4: | The Hospital serves the greater Franklin and Grand Isle counties in northwestern Vermont. The service area consists of approximately 56,000 people and the area is primarily rural and agricultural in nature with some light industry. |
| Part VI, Line 5: | The Hospital maintains an open medical staff and a community based Board of Directors. The Hospital's Board of Directors is elected by the Hospital's Board of Incorporators, which consists of approximately 150 local residents. The Hospital created and funds a program known as The Center for Health and Wellness, which is committed to a collaborative approach to community health improvement. |
