The agreement describes the funding source, terms and conditions of the award, statement of work, payment method, and audit process. The foreign institution prepares an invoice to the Lifespan affiliate for expenses incurred under the agreement. Once received, the invoice is reviewed and approved by both the principal investigator at the Lifespan affiliate and the responsible research administrator in the Lifespan Office of Research Administration.Check requests and wire transfer forms are prepared by the principal investigator, approved by the responsible research administrator, and forwarded to the Finance Department, where payment is processed to the foreign institution.Additionally, when the award is a federal award, a questionnaire is completed by the appropriate subrecipient official supplying information about the foreign institution's financial system and method of accounting for the award. A request is also made for the institution's audited financial statements. When a foreign individual is not associated with an institution, a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) is executed and the individual sends an invoice to the Lifespan affiliate principal investigator associated with the project or sponsored agreement that states the number of hours, dates of services, work performed, expense reimbursement request, and compensation amount. The same approval and payment process is used as described above.Expenditures related to foreign activities are recorded on the accrual basis of accounting. true true true X true X true true true false true true 9890155 2050676 7839479 0.01575 89102695 74246108 14856587 0.02986 98992850 76296784 22696066 0.04561 173358 12991 160367 0.00032 21041358 3850051 17191307 0.03455 18275186 6887244 11387942 0.02289 23938912 21002912 2936000 0.00590 206099 206099 0.00041 63634913 31753198 31881715 0.06407 162627763 108049982 54577781 0.10968 true 4605549 203653 96828045 95313069 1514976 X true true 1 1 The Miriam Hospital 164 Summit Avenue Providence RI 02906 www.miriamhospital.org HOS00122 X X X X X The Miriam Hospital 1 false false true X X X X X X X X X X 19 true true false true X See Schedule H, Part V, Section C X true 19 true See Schedule H, Part V, Section C false false true X 200.0000 300.0000 X X X X X X true true X X X X true X See Schedule H, Part V, Section C X See Schedule H, Part V, Section C X Sched.

Facility: The Miriam Hospital - Part V, Section B, Line 5 The CHNA process involved the integration of information from a range of data sources to identify the significant health needs of the community served by TMH, prioritize those needs, and identify resources, facilities and programs to address the prioritized needs. Both qualitative primary data and secondary quantitative data were gathered to identify the significant health needs of the community.The primary data sources include community health forums, key informant interviews, and individual surveys. Secondary data sources include national and local publications of state-specific data. These sources vary in sample size, method of data collection and measures reported, but all are publicly available sources, and in each case, the most recent publicly accessible data is presented. The data sources are described in more detail below.Community Health Forums:Qualitative data was collected through Community Health Forums (CHFs) to solicit input from individuals representing the broad interests and perspectives of the community. Participants in the CHFs included members of the medically underserved, low-income, and minority populations in the TMH service area.Community forums are a standard qualitative social science data collection method, used in community-based or participatory action research. Six CHFs were held between April 30 and June 21, 2019 across the TMH service area. Participants were recruited using social media, posted flyers, email, and word of mouth. Locations were selected to be easily accessible to the public and hospital patients, and forums were held at various times of the day on weekdays and weekends. TMH forums were held at community centers, places of worship, a high school, a homeless shelter, local non-profit agencies and TMH. At each forum, a meal was provided, along with child care and interpretation if requested in advance. All CHFs were open to the public and participants were fully engaged throughout the 90-minute discussions.A representative of TMH served as a hospital liaison to help plan and facilitate the CHFs. The hospital liaison was a critical link between the LCHI as the coordinating body, the expertise and resources within the hospital, and the Community Liaisons described below.An important and unique component of the CHFs was the involvement of Community Liaisons. Three people representing the diverse populations served by TMH were hired as consultants to assist with the CHNA. These Community liaisons helped plan the CHFs, recruited participants, and co-facilitated the forums. All Community Liaisons were chosen through a competitive selection process and completed a two-hour training prior to leading the CHFs. The training included project planning tips, role-playing activities, conflict management strategies, and logistical expectations. Community Liaisons were responsible for identifying an accessible venue for each forum, selecting a food vendor and menu that would be appealing to the target audience, and co-facilitating the discussion at the CHF with their hospital liaison.Each CHF was two hours in duration and followed a similar format that began with a meal, followed by a 90-minute discussion, co-facilitated by the hospital and Community Liaison. The discussion generated consensus on the participants health concerns, their prioritization of those concerns, and their ideas for how TMH could respond to those concerns. Discussion began with a brief presentation of TMHs 2016 CHNA priorities and examples of activities TMH has performed in response. Participants were invited to share their reactions to what was presented as well as their current health concerns. The input gathered during the CHFs was assessed qualitatively to extract themes and quantitatively to determine the frequency with which those themes were cited. Community Liaisons also met with the LCHI and the hospital liaison to debrief the forums and offer their interpretation of the findings to ensure all input was captured and that priorities were appropriately ranked.Hiring, training, and empowering community members to serve as Community Liaisons in the CHNA process enriched the quantity and quality of community input. It also allowed TMH to build relationships with communities that might not otherwise have become aware of or engaged in the needs assessment process.Individual Surveys:To broaden the reach of community input, surveys were distributed and collected by LCHI staff at events they attended in May and June 2019, such as the annual Pride festival. The surveys addressed the same questions as the CHFs. Six individual surveys were received for TMH.Key Informant Interviews:The director of the LCHI identified public health and health policy leaders who could inform the 2019 CHNA process and had knowledge, information or expertise about the community that TMH serves. Key informant interviews were conducted with state leaders to supplement the other quantitative and qualitative data collected. Key informants include the: Acting Chief of Staff, Executive Office of Health and Human Services, State of Rhode Island and Policy Director, Rhode Island Childrens Cabinet Director of Policy, Planning, and Research, Executive Office of Health and Human Services, State of Rhode Island Director, Health Equity Institute and Special Needs Director, Rhode Island Department of Health Physician Lead, Health Equity Institute, Rhode Island Department of HealthWhen crafting the TMH implementation strategy, TMH reflected upon the key themes that emerged from these conversations. The statewide priorities and recommendations of the key informants included: incorporate health equity targets; generate and monitor data on health disparities, especially by race, ethnicity and income; build strategies that incorporate the social determinants of health; go beyond individual interventions to family/household level interventions; make investments in early childhood; consider co-morbidities, especially between behavioral health and chronic diseases; confront racism and bias to improve care; provide personalized care; be sensitive to misalignments within healthcare; and continue to address substance misuse and behavioral health conditions. To ensure representation from a broad cross-section of the community, CHF's were held in the following locations:-IBG Studios, 199 Camp Street, Providence, RI 02906;-Pregreso Latino, 626 Broad Street, Central Falls, RI 02863;-Pawtucket YMCA, 20 Summer Street, Pawtucket, RI 02860;-The Jewish Alliance, 401 Elmgrove Avenue, Providence, RI 02906;-East Side Apartments, 83 Doyle Avenue, Providence, RI 02906; and-Hurvitz Conference Room, The Miriam Hospital, 164 Summit Avenue, Providence, RI 02906.

MHFA is an innovative eight-hour course that trains people to recognize the signs and symptoms of common mental health disorders, to provide immediate initial on-site help, and to guide individuals toward appropriate professional assistance. During FY 2019, LCHI offered 66 MHFA classes to 1,062 participants. Facility: The Miriam Hospital - Part V, Section B, Line 16j An abbreviated version of TMH's Financial Assistance Policy is posted in various admitting and outpatient areas of TMH. Additionally, registration personnel refer uninsured and/or low-income patients to Patient Financial Counselors to discuss the policy and/or answer any questions they might have. Facility: The Miriam Hospital - Part V, Section B, Line 22d TMH uses the prospective method in determining amounts generally billed. Internal Revenue Code Section 501(r) defines the prospective method as the amount Medicare would reimburse TMH for billed care (including both the amount that would be reimbursed by Medicare and the amount the beneficiary would be personally responsible for paying in the form of co-payments, co-insurance, and deductibles) if the patient was a Medicare fee-for-service beneficiary.

Upon patient indication of an inability to pay required monies, the patient is offered the financial screening option to determine eligibility for public assistance (Medicaid, CFS).2. The application for CFS is completed and includes information relative to income, expense, and other available resources, and requires proof of such information which may include:- most recently filed Federal income tax return and W-2 form(s)- copies of most recent savings and/or checking account statements- two most recently received payroll check stubs- copy of rent receipts for the last six months for proof of residency- copy of utility bills for the last month for proof of residency3. If the patient's financial situation falls within the guidelines for eligibility for Medicaid, RIte Care, or CFS, or if the patient has a long-term disability, the appropriate application process is completed. (Assistance to complete such applications is available from the Patient Financial Advocates (PFA) Office at TMH.)4. Uninsured patients receive a discount equal to the discount received by Medicare beneficiaries on TMH charges using the prospective method. Under Section 501(r)(5), the maximum amounts that can be charged to Financial Assistance Policy (FAP)-eligible individuals for emergency or other medically necessary care are the amounts generally billed to individuals who have Medicare insurance covering such care. In no case was there a situation where an uninsured patient paid more than amounts reimbursed from Medicare.5. Eligibility for CFS above the discount is provided for those applicants whose family gross income is at or below twice the Federal Poverty Guidelines, with a sliding scale for individuals up to three times the poverty level in effect at the time of application. Full charity care applicants with assets worth more than $9,400 for an individual (or $14,100 for a family) may not qualify for care without charge, but will qualify for discounted care. While the maximum 100% discount may not be available to all charity care applicants based on the results of their asset test, all uninsured patients who receive care are eligible for, at a minimum, the charity care discount as provided by the Medicare program. 6. For patients who qualify for less than 100% of the financial assistance program, a payment schedule is determined and agreed upon (discussed further below). Payment arrangements are established prior to service for non-urgent care. 7. In either case, the final results of the financial screening are recorded in the comments section of TMH's billing system.Requests for Payment Arrangements:Patient Financial Advocates (PFA) will qualify patients that are receiving non-urgent, medically indicated procedures prior to services. The PFA will request 75% to 100% of estimated discounted charges if the balance is under $5,000 and 50% to 100% of estimated discounted charges if the estimated bill equals or exceeds $5,000.For elective or non-urgent cases, the policy will require financial clearance prior to services or an exception from the Medical Director based on the clinical circumstances if the patient cannot meet the above payment agreement.Patients who do not qualify for total or partial CFS, but who have difficulty in paying their bills after services are rendered, may request enrollment in a payment plan. Eligibility for the payment plan includes the following guidelines:1. Immediate payment in full will result in financial hardship to the patient or the patient's family.2. Deposit of one-half of the estimated total bill is requested prior to admission.3. The minimum monthly payment of $50.00.4. The maximum length of the payment plan is twenty-four months.The Customer Service staff will set up the payment plan using the above guidelines as well as complete the necessary information on the "Payment Agreement" form and mail to the patient for signature. Account documentation will be done online. The pre-collect agency will be sent a copy of the payment agreement and all forms will be scanned into the PFS Optical Imaging System. Part I, Line 6a - Related Organization Community Benefit Report The community benefit report for all Lifespan affiliated hospitals (The Miriam Hospital, Rhode Island Hospital, Emma Pendleton Bradley Hospital, and Newport Hospital) is maintained by Lifespan Corporation and included in Lifespan's annual report. The annual report for the year ended September 30, 2019 is available at the following link. https://issuu.com/lifespanmc/docs/ls-annual-report-2019-200602?fr=sMjliMTEzOTMwNDMPlease see pages 5 and 29-30 of the Lifespan Annual Report for community benefit information. Part I, Line 7 - Explanation of Costing Methodology TMH's costing methodology used to calculate the amounts reported in Part I, Line 7 is as follows:a) Financial assistance at cost- involves utilization of a ratio derived from dividing patient costs, as defined, by patient charges, as defined, and applying that percentage to total charity care charges.Patient costs reported in the cost accounting system are calculated based on Medicare principles of reimbursement by reducing total operating expenses (as calculated by Form 990 requirements) by items such as bad debt expense, the cost of medical education, internally funded research, subsidized health services, community services, charitable contributions, and other operating revenue. Patient costs are then divided by patient charges to determine a ratio of cost to charges (RCC). This RCC is applied as the costing methodology for determining charity care expense.b) Medicaid- Medicaid expense is determined at cost as calculated by TMH's cost accounting system. The system uses historical costing methods applied to all patient segments based on various patient demographics and utilizations. These costing standards exclude bad debt, charity care, and the Medicaid portion of costs of health professions education, which are reported on other areas of Line 7. These expenses include Medicaid provider taxes. Direct offsetting revenue is reported as amounts received from Medicaid, as well as other payments which include reimbursement under Federal "Upper Payment Limit" (UPL) and "Disproportionate Share Hospital" (DSH) programs.e) Community health improvement services and community benefit operations- Community benefit operations expense is recorded as direct expenses incurred as reported by TMH's Community Health Services Department. Revenue received for these services is reported as direct offsetting revenue. f) Health professions education- Health professions education expenses represent direct costs related to amounts associated with resident and intern programs utilized at TMH. These costs are determined by reporting actual direct costs taken from the Medicare cost report. Direct offsetting revenue is reported as any direct Medicare reimbursements received for such services provided, as reported in TMH's Medicare cost report.g) Subsidized health services- Subsidized health services' community benefit expense is determined by TMH's cost accounting system. These subsidized health services are recorded at cost in TMH's cost accounting system for all qualified subsidized health service divisions. This expense is adjusted to remove all related Graduate Medical Education (GME) expenses, as well as bad debt, Medicaid, and charity costs already reported in the applicable sections of Line 7. Net patient service revenue is recorded as amounts received from various payer types related to these services. Revenue associated with Medicare GME and Medicaid is excluded from the amount disclosed for subsidized health services.h) Research- TMH conducts extensive medical research focused on the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS, obesity, cancer, diabetes, cardiac disease, neurological problems, orthopedic advancements, and mental health concerns. For all internal and external research conducted, the costs associated with these activities are calculated by combining the direct and indirect costs as reported within TMH's cost accounting system. Revenue received for these services is reported as direct offsetting revenue. i) Cash and in-kind contributions for community benefit- Expenses for cash and in-kind community benefit contributions are incurred by TMH, including an allocation of contributions made by Lifespan Corporation on TMH's behalf. Part I, Line 7, Column F - Explanation of Bad Debt Expense The calculation of percentages disclosed for Schedule H, Part I, Line 7, column (f) "percent of total expense", does not include bad debt expense. Form 990, Part IX, Line 25 includes provision for bad debts of $18,999,787. Part III, Line 2 - Methodology Used To Estimate Bad Debt Expense The amount reported as bad debt expense is determined by applying the ratio of cost to charges (RCC) to the total charges written off to bad debt. The RCC rate is determined using data from TMH's cost accounting system and is adjusted for medical education, internally funded research, subsidized health services, community services, and charitable contributions. Discounts and payments are applied to patient accounts before such account balances are transferred to bad debt. Part III, Line 3 - Methodology of Estimated Amount & Rationale for Including in Community Benefit Accounts pending transfer to bad debt are reviewed by TMH's patient advocate staff to determine qualification for financial assistance under TMH's policy. Accounts with insufficient information to determine eligibility are assigned a separate identifying code. These accounts are ultimately transferred to bad debt if the appropriate qualifying documentation is not received. The amount reported on Schedule H, Part III, Section A, Line 3 represents the account balances at charge written off to bad debt from the pending code, which are in turn converted to cost by applying the RCC rate as identified in Schedule H, Part III, Section A, Line 2. Part III, Line 4 - Bad Debt Expense Due to the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 - Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606), bad debt expense is no longer reported in the audited financial statements as a separate line item, but rather is treated as a price concession. Please see the following audited financial statement footnote which describes this pronouncement.Accounting Pronouncements Adopted - Footnote 3(b) from the audited financial statements.Adoption of Topic 606TMHs adoption of the ASU did not materially change the timing or amount of revenue recognized. However, the ASU requires that patient service revenue be presented in the statement of operations and changes in net assets at the transaction price, i.e., net of any provision for bad debts. Part III, Line 8 - Explanation Of Shortfall As Community Benefit There is no Medicare shortfall for fiscal year 2019. If there was, it would not be treated as a community benefit.The source of the Medicare allowable costs reported on Part III, Section B, Line 6 is the Medicare cost report, Form 2552-10. Part III, Line 9b - Provisions On Collection Practices For Qualified Patients TMH does not bill for the excess of charges over agreed upon reimbursement amounts from third-party payors. Rather, such differences are recorded as a reduction of revenue through contractual adjustments. Collection efforts are focused on copayments, deductibles and amounts denied by insurers. After all collection attempts are exhausted, any remaining balances, including any copayments and deductibles, are written off as a bad debt. TMH classifies its bad debts as uncompensated care. This does not apply to Medicaid, however, as there are no associated copayments or deductibles for this payor.TMH generally does not require collateral or other security in extending credit to patients; however, it routinely obtains assignment of patients' benefits payable under their health insurance programs, plans, or policies. Uninsured patients are offered Community Free Service and/or payment plan options.Lifespan's Patient Financial Services Department (PFS) has the responsibility for communicating and administering collection policies and procedures to all patient accounts. PFS engages the services of various pre-collect agencies as necessary. The following are highlights of the overall collection effort:* If a patient presents for admission who is not insured, staff assists the family with a Medicaid application.* If the patient is ineligible for Medicaid, a financial screening is performed to determine status of qualification for charity care. All patients without medical insurance receive at a minimum a self-pay discount calculated using the Prospective Method of amounts generally billed.* If the patient does not qualify for charity care, PFS or the pre-collect agency attempts at least four contacts with the responsible party within the first 120 days.* At 120 days, if there is no payment activity or no hold placed on the account, the account is transferred to the appropriate collection agency. Part VI, Line 2 - Needs Assessment Lifespan's Office of Strategic Planning and Analysis performs population-based studies for TMH regarding the need for inpatient medical and surgical services for both adults and children and a wide range of outpatient services including: primary care office visits, specialty care, emergency services, imaging, ambulatory surgery, and specific high technology services such as radiation therapy and bone marrow transplantation. A population-based study examines the growth and changes in the population, the resources in the community, and the changing prevalence of diseases. Lifespan Strategic Planning also examines experience with wait times, the level of staffing, and the changing standards of care. All of this information is used to assess the demand for additional services to provide access to high quality care.In addition to population approaches to assessing and estimating need, all specialties and services monitor demand at the service-specific level by considering changing patterns of care and methods of treatment for the specific medical problem, wait times for visits/queues, and community resources. The service leadership then goes through a review process to add staff, expanded hours, and/or new subcomponents to round out core services on an as-needed basis. At times, expansion requires more space, equipment, and staff, but often accommodation of community demand is achieved through expanded hours. Facilities are added as needed to accommodate these expansions, but most often minor renovations of existing locations with better, more modern layouts and equipment allow for greater patient access.The RI State Certificate of Need program requires a focused study of need for all projects over $5.25 million, which is an important part of the program development process across Lifespan.Based on a broad understanding of community health needs, TMH provides a wide range of services to both its primary and secondary service areas. Lifespan and its hospital affiliates monitor health trends in Rhode Island in an effort to identify areas of unmet demand regarding clinical services. Part VI, Line 3 - Patient Education of Eligibility for Assistance TMH has multilingual signage in its main lobby and waiting areas which provides information on financial aid contacts. The Registration Department meets with patients at the outset of care to discuss eligibility for assistance. The Registration staff provides interested patients with a "Welcome" booklet which includes information on patient rights and responsibilities. The signage and booklets contain a telephone number which connects patients with Registration staff who can answer any additional questions that may arise after the patient has left TMH. Assistance eligibility is also summarized on TMH's website, http://miriamhospital.org.As part of TMH's inpatient intake process, TMH provides a summary of the financial assistance policy, along with all assistance applications and the Patient Financial Services contact number, to all self-pay patients. The same process is also used for patients seen during the outpatient discharge process. Attempts are made to contact patients prior to their visit to screen for financial assistance and to inform them what documents are required for their financial assistance determination or to set up an appointment to see a "Patient Financial Advocate" (PFA) prior to service. PFAs discuss with patients the various government programs that might be available to them for financial assistance. PFAs also offer assistance with the financial application process and/or understanding the qualification factors for Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, Medicare, Social Security Disability, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and Rhode Island Temporary Disability Insurance and Unemployment. This is done for both inpatient and outpatient services. Part VI, Line 4 - Community Information TMH, located in Providence, Rhode Island, is a 247-bed nonprofit general acute care teaching hospital with university affiliation providing a comprehensive range of diagnostic and therapeutic services (excluding obstetrics) for the acute care of patients principally from Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts.
