Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 5: The input of the community and other important regional stakeholders was an important part of the CHNA process. A wide range of stakeholders took part in the 2019 CHNA process, including local and regional public health and health departments, other local municipal agencies, diverse community-based organizations, advocacy organizations, healthcare providers, and community residents. These stakeholders provided input through a CHNA Regional Advisory Council (RAC), focus groups, key informant interviews, community conversations, and community chats. Additionally, community forums were conducted towards the end of the CHNA process to vet preliminary findings with community members. Please refer to the hospitals' CHNA Appendix I for a complete listing of public health, community representatives, and other stakeholders included in the process. The CHNA RAC included representatives from each Coalition member hospital/insurer as well as public health and community stakeholders from each hospital service area. Stakeholders on the RAC included local and regional public health and health department representatives; representatives from local and regional organizations serving or representing medically underserved, low-income or populations of color; and individuals from organizations that represent the broad interests of the community. The Coalition conducted a stakeholder analysis to ensure geographic, sector (e.g. schools, community service organizations, healthcare providers, public health, and housing), and racial/ethnic diversity of RAC. The RAC met in workgroups (Data and Reports, Engagement and Dissemination, and Health Equity) to guide the consultants in the process of conducting the CHNA, and prioritizing community health needs, CHNA findings, and dissemination of information. Assessment methods and findings were modified based on the RAC's feedback. The RAC consisted of 31 participants, including Coalition members and consultants. The RAC met monthly from September 2018 through June 2019. Key informant interviews and focus groups were conducted to gather information used to identify priority health needs and engage the community. Key informant interviews were conducted with health care providers, health care administrators, local and regional public health officials, and local leaders that represent the interests of the community or that serve medically underserved, low-income, or populations of color in the service area. Interviews with local and regional public health officials identified priority health areas and community factors that contribute to health needs. Focus group participants included community organization representatives, community members (low-income, people of color, and others), and other community stakeholders. Topics and populations included: substance use, transgender health, older adults, youth, mental health, cancer care, gun violence, and rural food access. Key informant interviews and focus groups were conducted from February 2019 through March 2019. Focus groups and key informant interviews engaged residents primarily in Hampden County, but also across the region. The CHNA also used qualitative data from other hospital service areas as appropriate. Baystate Health held five Community Conversations and over 70 Community Chats. Community Conversations were larger bidirectional information-sharing meetings conducted for each Baystate Hospital service area and one done in Spanish in Springfield. For Community Chats, RAC members brought information about the CHNA and gathered priorities in regular meetings of service providers, community-based organizations, and hospital clinical staff and administrators. While these outreach efforts were spearheaded by Baystate Health, the engagement and findings benefitted all Coalition member hospitals/insurer. Conversations and Chats were held from January 2019 through April 2019 and engaged approximately 900 residents. Five Community Forums were held upon completion of this report to share and validate the findings. Two were offered in Spanish with approximately 100 individuals representing the broad interests of the community; participants in the focus groups, interviews, Conversations, and Chats; and community stakeholders representing medically underserved, low-income, and populations of color.
Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 6a: The Coalition of Western MA Hospitals/Insurer (Coalition) is a partnership between eight non-profit hospitals/insurer in western Massachusetts: Baystate Medical Center, Baystate Franklin Medical Center, Baystate Noble Hospital, Baystate Wing Hospital, Cooley Dickinson Hospital, Mercy Medical Center (a member of Trinity Health-New England), Shriners Hospitals for Children-Springfield, and Health New England, a local health insurer whose service area covers the four counties of western Massachusetts. The Coalition formed in 2012 to bring hospitals within western Massachusetts together to share resources and work in partnership to conduct their triennial CHNAs and address regional needs.
Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 6b: The Coalition of Western MA Hospitals/ Insurer engaged the Public Health Institute of Western MA (PHIWM), based in Springfield, MA, as the lead consultant to conduct the CHNAs. PHIWM was supported by three other consultant teams; Community Health Solutions (CES), based in Northampton, MA; Franklin Regional Council of Governments (FRCOG), based in Greenfield, MA; and Pioneer Valley Planning Commission (PVPC), based in Springfield, MA. The Coalition includes Health New England, a local health insurer whose service area covers the four counties of western Massachusetts.
Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 7d: The hospital facility made its CHNA report widely available to the public via an email distribution, with links to the hospital's website, to community partners and organizations. In addition, the CHNA reports have informed the implementation of county wide community health improvement plans in Franklin and Hampden counties. Hospital and CHNA consultant staff have been invited to various venues and audiences to present on the CHNA process and key findings. The Coalition created a Facebook page, "Western MA CHNA", as a means to communicate with and engage the community throughout the CHNA process. All Coalition CHNAs were posted and shared via this Facebook page.
Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 11: The hospital facility anticipates health needs and available resources may change, therefore, a flexible approach was adopted in the development of its implementation strategy. For example, certain community health needs may become more pronounced and require changes to the initiatives identified by the hospital in the Strategy. Other community organizations may address certain needs, indicating that the hospital's strategies should be refocused on alternative community health needs or assume a different focus on the needs identified in the 2019 CHNA.The hospital facility views a community benefits implementation strategy as a "LIVING" document. Baystate hospitals have adopted the term Strategic Implementation Plan (SIP), in lieu of Implementation Strategy. The significant health needs to be addressed by the hospital are referred to as priority focus areas in the SIP. Due to the evolving climate in health care, the hospital's financial health year to year remains unknown; therefore hospital resources and inputs may increase, decrease, or need to be modified. The hospital's SIP work plan provides an opportunity for the hospital to be strategic and focused, yet flexible in its community health planning and improvement efforts. The hospital facility, in partnership with its Community Benefits Advisory Council reviews the work plans quarterly and the hospital updates the work plans on the hospital website annually. No health care system or hospital facility can address all the significant health need present in its community. The hospital facility is committed to adhering to its mission and remaining financially healthy so that it can continue to enhance its clinical excellence and patient experience, as well as address significant health needs identified in the CHNA. The hospital facility's implementation strategy does not explicitly address all significant community health needs identified in the 2019 CHNA due to; 1. limited resources (time, talent, and treasure), 2. the hospital is a stakeholder and/or partner in addressing the directly or indirectly through other hospital clinical and service lines and community partnerships, 3. other hospitals or community organizations within the service area are addressing the need; 4. The need falls outside of the hospitals' mission or limited resource capacity. Significant health needs, referred to by the hospital as priority focus areas, being addressed by the hospital include, mental health and substance use, built environment, and institutional and interpersonal discrimination. Significant health needs not to be addressed include, housing, social environment, basic needs, care coordination, culturally sensitive care, health literacy and language barriers, insurance and healthcare care related challenges, limited providers, Alzheimer's disease, chronic diseases, infant and perinatal health, and sexual health.
Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 13b: All patients with account balances (other than balances resulting from co-payments or deductibles on insured services) are eligible to receive a prompt pay discount of 20% of the balance for claims paid in full at time of service or within 60 days of the date of the initial bill. Patients must request the discount. The discount cannot be combined with the Hospital Supplemental Financial Assistance Program. Baystate Noble Hospital offers a co-payment discount program for the patients receiving services in the emergency department of the hospital. This discount program is available to all hospital emergency department patients with co-payment obligations under private or government health insurance (unless prohibited by law or a Baystate Noble Hospital's contract with a private insurer or government authority). These patients may reduce the otherwise applicable emergency department service co-payment by 10% if the patient elects to pay the co-payment at the conclusion of the patient's emergency department visit.
Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 15e: Baystate Noble Hospital (BNH) provides patients with information about the availability of State Programs, Health Safety Net, or the Hospital Supplemental Financial Assistance Program which may cover all or some of their unpaid BNH bills as well as about BNH discount programs. For those patients who request such assistance, the hospital assists patients by screening them for eligibility in available State Programs and assisting them in applying for such programs. When applicable, BNH may also assist patients in applying for coverage of services as a Medical Hardship based on the patient's documented income and allowable medical expenses. BNH has contracted with the Executive Office of Health and Human Services and the Commonwealth Health Insurance Connector Authority to serve as a Certified Application Counselor Organization. As a Certified Application Counselor (CAC), appropriate staff will inform a patient of the functions and responsibility of a CAC, seek that the patient sign a Certified Application Counselor Designation Form, and assist the patient in finding applicable financial assistance.
Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 16j: Paper copies of our financial assistance policy (FAP) and the FAP application, and a FAP plain language summary as well as the Billing and Collections Policy are available upon request, in English, Spanish, and Russian, and free of charge in the hospital and by mail, as well as the hospital facilities website https://www.baystatehealth.org/patients/billing-and-financial-assistance. A plain language summary of the FAP is offered to all patients at all registration sites including our full service health centers in the community - Baystate Brightwood Health Center and Baystate Mason Square Neighborhood Health Center. In addition, copies of the full FAP, FAP application and Billing and Collections Policy are also available at all Registration sites. Copies of our community health needs assessment are available for viewing and download on our website at https://www.baystatehealth.org/about-us/community-programs/community-benefits/community-health-needs-assessment. Hard copies of our CHNA are available upon request free of charge. We have also shared our CHNA with all the community members who were involved with CHNA as well as each hospitals Community Benefits Advisory Council (CBAC). The hospital is committed to ongoing efforts to widely publicize our FAP and CHNA to the community, specifically, to low-income populations. Additional efforts will include promotion via our hospitals various social media platforms and providing printed materials to key social service agencies and educating their staff that work with low income populations in the hospitals service area.
Baystate Noble Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 20e: We rely on Medicaid for presumptive eligibility determinations. We would perform these actions if needed but did not have any patient during the tax year where an ECA was initiated.

The hospital facility's annual community benefits report is also published on the Baystate Health website at https://www.baystatehealth.org/about-us/community-programs/ community-benefits/community-health-needs-assessment. The hospital's community benefits report provides the Office of the Attorney General and the general public important information about how the hospital partners with the community to identify and address health needs, as well as details the specific programs and activities the hospital implements or supports to address significant health needs.
Part I, Line 7:Line 7a (Charity Care) - community benefit expense was calculated by applying the ratio of patient care cost to charges, calculated on Worksheet 2, against total charity care gross patient charges from the audited financial statements.Line 7b (Unreimbursed Medicaid) - community benefit expense was derived by applying the ratio of patient care cost to charges, calculated on Worksheet 2, against inpatient and outpatient gross charges for Medicaid and Medicaid managed care plans.Line 7c (Other Means-Tested Programs) - community benefit expense was derived by applying the ratio of patient care cost to charges, calculated on Worksheet 2, against inpatient and outpatient gross charges for other means-tested government programs.Line 7e (Community Health Improvement Services & Benefit Operations) - Community Health Improvement Services calculations are derived from direct and indirect costs associated with community benefit activities that are aligned with the hopital's 2019 community health needs assessment. These activities are carried out to improve community health and wellness and extend beyond patient care, beyond the walls of the hospital. Community Benefit Operations calculations are derived from costs associated with assigned staff and community health needs and/or assets assessment, as well as other costs associated with community benefit strategy and operations.Line 7f (Health Professional Education) - no expense to report for this category in 2019.Line 7g (Subsidized Programs) - There were no subsidized services to report in 2019.
Part I, Ln 7 Col(f):In fiscal year 2019, the organization adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09". The update resulted in changes in the presentation and disclosure of revenue primarily related to uninsured and underinsured patients. Under ASU 2014-09 the estimated uncollectible amounts due from these patients are generally considered implicit price concessions that are a direct reduction to net operating revenues. In 2019, these implicit price concessions, formerly known as provision for bad debts, totalled $3,265,392 and is not included in total expenses reported in Part IX, LIne 25, column (A) for the purpose of calculating the percentages in Part 1, LIne 7, column (f).
Part II, Community Building Activities:The following description is not quantified specifically in Part II of Schedule H. The hospital facility is committed to creating healthier communities and understands that many state and federally mandated community benefit programs and services are not sufficient to address ethnic, racial, and economic health disparities and inequities. The hospital embraces the traditional definition of "health" to include economic opportunity, affordable housing, quality education, safe neighborhoods, food security, social and racial justice, and the arts/culture all elements that are needed for individuals, families, and communities to thrive. The hospital provides many valuable services, resources, programs, and financial support - beyond the walls of the hospital and into the communities and homes of the people it serves; including grants and sponsorship of local community-based organizations and the involvement of Baystate Health leadership with various community boards that align with its mission. The hospital facility paid dues to the Greater Westfield Chamber of Commerce totaling $2,000.The hospital participates in the Chamber as it is one of the largest local employers in the service area. The Chamber and its members coordinate activities toward a common purpose of sustainability and economic growth for the region.
Part III, Line 4:The cost of bad debts reported in Part III, line 2 was calculated by applying a ratio of cost to charges (based on the organization's cost accounting system including all hospital inpatients and outpatients) against total implicit price concessions as reflected in the audited financial statements. The portion of bad debt that reasonably could be attributable to patients who may qualify for financial assistance under the hospital's charity care program (reported in Part III line 3) was calculated by applying the percentage of bad debts by zip code (for which the average household income for each zip code is less than 150% of the federal poverty level) to the total cost of bad debt reported in Part III line 2. Since this portion of bad debt is attributable to patients residing in an area where the average income is less than 150% of the Federal poverty level, it is highly likely these patients would have qualified for the organization's charity care program had they applied. For this reason, we believe the amount, totalling $68,365, should be treated as community benefit expense in Part I. As noted above, the organization adopted Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 effective October 1, 2018, which changed the way entities report and disclose certain financial information including implicit price concession (formerly the provision for bad debts). See audited financial statements, footnote #2 (Significant Accounting Policies) on page 15 under the caption "Net Patient Service Revenue and page 17 under the caption "Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements" for a description of the organization's reporting of its implicit price concessions (formerly provision for bad debts).If a patient is determined eligible for financial assistance, the appropriate adjustment is made to the patient account based on their income level. Once the necessary approvals are obtained,it then flows to thegeneral ledger. Patients applying for a prompt payment discount will have this allowance entered after agreed upon payment is received.
Part III, Line 8:Line 6 - included all Medicare allowable costs as calculated in Worksheets D-1 Part II (inpatient and inpatient psych), D Part V (outpatient) and E Part A of the hospital's 2019 Medicare cost report, net of Medicare costs reported in Part 1, line 7.g, and based on Medicare costing principles. We believe the shortfall reported of $1,025,710 should be treated as a community benefit expense for tax reporting purposes because providing care for the elderly is a key component of our commitment to the community. The unreimbursed expenses shold be treated similarly to unreimbursed Medicaid since the majority of the local elderly population is not affluent.
Part III, Line 9b:For patients who are known to qualify for Charity Care or Financial Assistance: The patient may have requested assistance up front at time of service with a Financial Counselor or the Patient could have asked for assistance after receiving their bill by contacting our Patient Billing Services Representatives. The Financial Counselor will assist the patient in applying for the appropriate type of assistance based on their income and circumstances. Once approved for a State Medicaid or other program, all billing and collection activity will stop (except for required co-payments or deductibles).For all other patients, our statements contain information regarding how to apply for financial assistance. Notices concerning availability for assistance are also posted at patient care sites.
Part VI, Line 2:The Baystate Board Governance Committee convenes semi-annually and is charged with advocating for community benefits at the board level and throughout the health system and broader community; aligning the system's four (4) hospital-specific community benefits implementation strategies with the health system's strategic plan; review of CHNA data; approval of a community benefits mission statement and health priorities; review impacts of community benefits activities and investments; and ensure Baystate Health's community benefits are in compliance with guidelines established by the MA Attorney General and IRS. Annually, the Office of Government and Community Relations provides updates to the Baystate Board of Trustees, Baystate President's Cabinet, and other Baystate leadership teams, as requested. The hospital Community Benefits Advisory Council (CBAC) continues to bring a community lens and filter for the hospital's health priorities. The CBAC provides a community perspective on how to increase wellness and resilience opportunities for optimal health for an entire population; guidance in matching hospital resources to community resources, thus making the most of what is possible with the goal to improve health status and quality of life; and policy advocacy to assure and restore health equity by targeting resources for residents. Participants on the hospital CBAC represent constituencies and communities served by the hospital. CBAC members are responsible for reviewing community needs assessment data and use this analysis as a foundation for providing the hospital with input on its community benefits planning process.Baystate Health Patient & Family Advisory Council (PFAC) members provided valuable input in enhancing care at Baystate Health based on the knowledge of the unique needs of patients and families. Information from PFAC provides hospital leadership with an enhanced understanding of how to improve quality, program development, service excellence, communications, patient safety, facility design, patient and family education, patient and family satisfaction, and loyalty. PFAC is made up of a diverse group of patients, family members, and community members who represent the collective voice of the patients and families at Baystate Medical Center, Baystate Children's Hospital, Baystate Franklin Medical Center, Baystate Noble Hospital, Baystate Mary Lane Outpatient Center, Baystate Wing Hospital, the D'Amour Center for Cancer Care, and the BeHealthy ACO in Baystate managed health centers.
Part VI, Line 3:The hospital is committed to ensuring that patients in its community have access to quality health care services with fairness and respect without regard to the patients' ability to pay. The hospital recognizes the cost of necessary health care services can impose a significant financial burden on patients who are uninsured or underinsured, and acts affirmatively to lessen that burden by offering eligible patients the opportunity to apply for free or reduced cost services. The hospital not only offers free and reduced cost care as required by law, but has also voluntarily established discount and financial assistance programs that provide additional free and reduced cost care to more patients residing within the communities served by the hospital.The hospital recognizes the billing and collection process can be bewildering and burdensome for patients and has implemented procedures to make the process understandable for patients; to inform patients about discount and financial assistance options; and to ensure that patients are not subject to aggressive collection activities. Consistent with its patient commitment, the hospital is required to maintain a financial assistance policy and a billing and collection policy that reflects its financial assistance options and patient billing and collection procedures and complies with applicable federal and state laws and regulations.The hospital has financial counselors available to help patients apply for financial assistance programs that may cover unpaid hospital bills, including a variety of federal and state programs as well as financial assistance through the hospital. Hospital financial counselors have all been trained and certified by the state as Certified Account Counselors to assist patients in applying for available federal and state programs. The hospital is committed to ensuring that patients or prospective patients in the community are aware of financial assistance programs. For uninsured or underinsured patients, the hospital will assist in applying for available financial assistance programs. The hospital notifies patients of the availability of assistance in both the initial bill sent to patients, as well as in general notices posted throughout the hospital.When applicable, the hospital also assists patients in applying for coverage of services as a Medical Hardship based on the patient's documented income and allowable medical expenses. The hospital provides, upon request, specific information about the eligibility process to be a Low Income Patient under either the Massachusetts Health Safety Net Program or additional assistance for patients who are low income through Baystate's own internal financial assistance program. The hospital also notifies patients about available payment plans based on their family size and income. Baystate Health's Financial Assistance Policy and Billing and Collection Policy are posted on the baystatehealth.org website at https://www.baystatehealth.org/patients/billing-and-financial-assistance. The goal of posting the Financial Assistance Policy and the Billing and Collection Policy is to ensure that patients or prospective patients in the community are aware of the financial assistance programs. Signs about the availability of financial assistance programs at the hospital are translated into Spanish and Russian as these languages are primarily spoken by more than 1,000 or 1% of the residents in the hospital's service area. Signs are large and clearly visible. Hospital signs are 8.5 x 11 inches and the header print font is 24 points. Notice of availability of Financial Assistance Programs are posted in the following locations: inpatient, clinic, emergency department admissions and/or registration areas, central admission/registration area, patient financial counselor areas, and business office areas that are open to patients.
Part VI, Line 4:The following "community information" description is extracted from the hospital's 2019 CHNA. Baystate Noble Hospital (Baystate Noble) is a 97-bed acute care community hospital helping people in the greater Westfield community, offering direct access to world-class technology, diagnostics, and specialists. The hospital works to ensure that patients have access to exceptional healthcare, close to home. Skilled and compassionate nurses and medical support staff offer an ideal combination of "high tech and "high touch", complementing an outstanding team of doctors. Services include obstetrics and gynecology, emergency, laboratory, gastroenterology, surgery, cardiopulmonary services and rehabilitation, cancer care, behavioral health, urology, neurology, inpatient rehabilitation, and diagnostic imaging, including 3D mammography.The service area for Baystate Noble includes ten communities, nine of which are located in the western portion of Hampden County, over 100,000 people, and a majority of this population lives in the cities of West Springfield and Westfield. There is a mix of rural and urban populations. The U.S. Census defines urban areas as consisting of census tracts and/or blocks which meet the minimum population density requirement (2,500-49,999 for urban clusters and over 50,000 for urbanized areas) or are adjacent and meet additional criteria. The population is densest surrounding Westfield, West Springfield, and Agawam (US Census Bureau, Decennial Census 2010). The median age of residents in these cities is approximately 42 years. The Pioneer Valley Transit Authority connects three of the communities to the Springfield metropolitan area to the east, and to the hospital itself. Paratransit service is also available for people with disabilities within three-quarter mile of a fixed route to facilitate access to medical care.The service area has more racial and ethnic diversity than many other parts of western Massachusetts. County-wide, 24% of the population is Latino, 8% is black and 2% is Asian (ACS, 2013-2017), though this diversity is not equally spread throughout the region and tends to be concentrated in the urban core. In the Baystate Noble service area, 86% of the population is white, 7% is Latino, 2% is black and 3% is Asian (ACS, 2013-2017). A substantial proportion of the County's population is from other countries. In 2017, 22% of the state's immigrants came to western Massachusetts. West Springfield has welcomed the highest proportion in Hampden County, and 15% of the city's populations are immigrants. The current political climate has exacerbated threats to immigrant health related to threats to the behavioral, cultural, and structural systems that determine individual health decision on a daily basis. According to the MDPH, in the past 5 calendar years (2014-2018), there were 2,314 refugees with health assessments in western Massachusetts. This assessment is the first medical screening provided to refugees; it is their gateway into the medical system. Economically, the Baystate Noble service area is near many of the largest employers in the region as well as numerous colleges and universities. The largest industries and employers include health care, service and wholesale trade, and manufacturing. Compared to the state, the Baystate Noble service area has slightly lower unemployment and poverty rates, and higher levels of educational attainment. The median household income in the service area is about $61,000 (almost $17,000 less than the state). The poverty rate is 9% (slightly lower than the state rate of 11%). The child poverty rate is 13% (compared to 14.6% at the state level) (ACS, 2013-2017). Despite being near the Knowledge Corridor region, only 31% of the population aged 25 and over has a bachelor's degree, compared to 43% statewide. Unemployment is slightly lower than the state average. The median age for the service area is 41.6 years of age which is older than that of Hampden County and of the state. The population over 45 years old is growing as a percentage of the total population. To give a sense of the change in service needs, between 2010 and 2035, the proportion of people over age 60 in Hampden County is projected to grow from 20% of the population to 28%, with the number of older adults increasing from approximately 92,000 in 2010 to an estimated 140,000 in 2035. Aging projection data specific to the service area was unavailable. In Hampden County 14% of the population has a disability compared to the state rate of 12%. In West Springfield and Westfield, disability rates are comparable to the county at 14% and 15% respectively.
Part VI, Line 5:The hospital facility has a responsibility to respond to health care needs unsupported by government programs.

Baystate Franklin partnered with the Center for Human Development (CHD) to pursue the grant. The partnership will allow the agencies to form a medical/behavioral health home. The home will provide expanded support to pregnant, postpartum and parenting women, ages 18 or older (who may also have a child/children 36 months or younger) with OUD and/or a history of opioid overdose. The EMPOWER program currently serves approximately 30 women and families in Franklin County each year.Baystate Medical implemented an enhanced way to care for newborns physiologically dependent on opioids and their mothers called the Rooming-in Program. Previously, babies impacted by maternal OUD were admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit if they required pharmacological treatment for Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome. Parents understood little about the process and length of stay averaged several weeks. With the Rooming-in Program, eligible babies remain with their mothers in a private room throughout treatment, encouraging breastfeeding and bonding. Mothers receive prenatal and postnatal education to better understand the process and how to care for their babies, leaving them empowered while significantly decreasing length of stay for these babies.The Institute for Healthcare Improvement recognized Baystate Medical Center and Baystate Health's three community health centers as the first age-friendly health care institutions in the nation. The national age-friendly health system movement focuses on improving care by attending to what matters most to patients; medications, mental activity, and mobility. The honor recognized the efforts of the Acute Care for Elders program team and the interprofessional "Geri-Pal" team who recognize the unique problems of older adults, focus on what is most important to patients, and emphasize keeping those in their care as independent and active as possible. They assist with care plans, choosing treatment options, recognizing drug side effects, and making difficult decisions.Baystate Health has provided a safe way to dispose of unwanted medications and sharps through the installation of collection receptacles in the lobbies at each of its four hospitals.

Form 990, Schedule H, Part VI Line 6 continuedThe Mini-Medical School program is an eight-part health education series offered at Baystate Medical featuring a different aspect of medicine each week. Designed for an adult audience, each course is taught by an energetic faculty member who will explain the science of medicine without resorting to complex terms. Mini-Medical School gives Baystate Health the opportunity to open its doors to the public and share its knowledge of medicine in a comfortable and friendly environment. Many of the students participate due to a general interest and later find that many of the things they learned over the semester are relevant to their own lives. The goal of this program is to help members of the public make more informed decisions about all aspects of their health care while receiving insight on what it's like to be a medical student. Tuition is $95 per person, $80 for Senior Class and Every Woman members. Mini Medical School Alumni is over 2,000 members. Baystate Health offers 50+ free programs to seniors and women.

Form 990, Schedule H, Part VI, Line 7List of States Receiving Community Benefit Report: MAAdditional disclosures related to 501(r) complianceIn accordance with the guidance described in Revenue Procedure 2015-21, the hospital hereby discloses the following minor, inadvertent error, that was discovered by the Baystate internal tax department in October 2019, with respect to hospital's Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) that was completed in September 2019.Under 1.501(r)-2(b) of the Treasury Regulations, a hospital facility's error with respect to the implementation or operational requirements described in Treas. Reg 1.501(r)-3, will not be considered a failure to meet a requirement of Section 501(r) if: (1) such omission or error was minor and either inadvertent or due to reasonable cause; and (2) the hospital facility corrects such omission or error as promptly after discovery as is reasonable given the nature of the omission or error.In Tax Year 2018 the hospital conducted its CHNA, which was adopted by the Board of Trustees prior to the September 30, 2019 year end. The hospital inadvertently neglected to timely post the CHNA to the hospital website before the end of the tax year. When it was determined that hospital had not uploaded the current CHNA to the hospital website, the Baystate tax department coordinated the posting of the CHNA with community benefits and the website department. The posting was completed by the website department on November 13, 2019. Baystate has reviewed the current policies and procedures and is adopting a formal Community Benefits Policy to ensure compliance with the requirements of Section 501(r), and related regulations. The system intends to regularly monitor the effectiveness of the adopted policies to ensure the hospital maintains compliance with Section 501(r) on an on-going basis. As part of process improvements, during future CHNA implementation years, Baystate will post interim reports on the system website in mid-summer, allowing for community and public review and comments, prior to publishing the final CHNA reports approved by the Board of Trustees at the end of September. To the best of our knowledge, the delay did not affect any individuals, therefore the error will not be considered a failure to meet a requirement of Section 501(r). The hospital has corrected and is self-disclosing the inadvertent omission, and as of the filing of this form 990, the hospital is in compliance with Treas. Reg 1.501(r)-3 requirements for completing its community health needs assessment.
