| CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF WI-MILWAUKEE | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: WE RECOGNIZE THAT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL CANNOT COMPLETELY ELIMINATE EVERY CHALLENGE TO CHILDREN'S HEALTH. THESE ISSUES ARE LARGE AND COMPLEX, AND THERE ARE SOCIAL, ENVIRONMENTAL, GENETIC AND BEHAVIORAL FACTORS BEYOND OUR CONTROL. NOR CAN WE SOLVE THESE PROBLEMS ALONE. HOWEVER, AS A LEADER IN PEDIATRIC HEALTH CARE, WE ARE COMMITTED TO WORKING WITH OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE FOR THE KIDS WHO NEED US MOST. THROUGH PROGRAMMING, COLLABORATION AND EDUCATION, WE CAN LEVERAGE ALL AVAILABLE RESOURCES TO ENSURE THE BEST CARE FOR KIDS IN OUR COMMUNITY.

THE GOAL IS TO EXPAND THE PROGRAM STATEWIDE BY 2018. THIS PROGRAM IS IN THE PROCESS OF EXPANDING ITS REACH TO THE NORTHEAST REGION OF THE STATE IN 2018.SCHOOL-BASED MENTAL HEALTHSCHOOL-BASED MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ARE A VITAL TOOL FOR MEETING THE NEEDS OF CHILDREN WITH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES.

| PART I, LINE 6A: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND HEALTH SYSTEM, INC. ("CHHS"), THE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, PREPARES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT ON BEHALF OF BOTH OF THE HOSPITALS AND ITS AFFILIATES. THE REPORT IS FILED WITH THE WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION AND IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE OR UPON REQUEST. |
| PART I, LINE 7: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL USED A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO, DERIVED FROM WORKSHEET 2, RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST-TO-CHARGES, TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN LINES 7A AND 7B FOR CHARITY CARE AT COST AND UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID. FOR LINES 7E, 7F, 7G, 7H, AND 7I, THE HOSPITAL USED COSTS FROM ITS ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. FOR LINE 7G, THE COSTS FROM THE ACCOUNTING SYSTEM WERE ADJUSTED FOR MEDICAID AND CHARITY CARE PATIENTS, AS THE COST RELATED TO THESE PATIENTS WAS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT IN LINES 7A AND 7B. THE WISCONSIN MEDICAID PROGRAM PROVIDES COVERAGE FOR THE VAST MAJORITY OF CHILDREN WHO REQUIRE MEDICAL CARE BUT ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED. HOSPITAL REPRESENTATIVES WORK EXTENSIVELY WITH PATIENTS' FAMILIES TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND THE AVAILABILITY OF STATE AID AND TO ASSIST THEM IN ENROLLING IN THE PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES THE PATIENT WITH THE GREATEST BENEFIT. FOR THAT REASON, THE AMOUNT OF CHARITY CARE RENDERED BY THE HOSPITAL IS CONSIDERABLY SMALLER THAN LEVELS EXPERIENCED BY COMMUNITY HOSPITALS OR OTHER FACILITIES SERVING THE ADULT POPULATION. |
| PART I, LINE 7G: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL INCLUDED AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES ON PART I, LINE 7G $5,792,476 PAID TO CHILDREN'S MEDICAL GROUP, INC. ("CMG"), WHICH IS A SECTION 501(C)(3) ORGANIZATION AND AN AFFILIATE OF THE HOSPITAL THAT PROVIDES PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN SERVICES IN SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN. THE PAYMENTS WERE MADE TO SUBSIDIZE CMG CLINICS WITHIN MILWAUKEE COUNTY THAT PROVIDE PRIMARY CARE PRIMARILY TO CHILDREN ENROLLED IN THE WISCONSIN MEDICAID PROGRAM OR WHO ARE UNINSURED. |
| PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES INCLUDE PROGRAMS THAT ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH PROBLEMS FOR CHILDREN, SUCH AS POVERTY AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES. THESE COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES INCLUDE STAFF PARTICIPATION ON COMMUNITY BOARDS, COALITIONS AND/OR COMMITTEES THAT ASSIST IN IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S PARENT ORGANIZATION, CHHS, ALSO PERFORMS COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES INCLUDING COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ADVOCACY, WHICH ARE FURTHER DISCUSSED IN SCHEDULE H PART VI, LINE 6. |
| PART III, LINE 2: | THE AMOUNT REPORTED IN PART III, SECTION A, LINE 2 IS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED AS A REDUCTION OF PATIENT REVENUE, AND IS THE SUM OF ALL OF THE UNCOLLECTED PATIENT ACCOUNT BALANCES SENT TO THIRD PARTY COLLECTIONS, REDUCED BY ACTUAL RECOVERIES, REDUCED BY ANY ACCOUNTS RETURNED TO THE HOSPITAL BY THE THIRD PARTY COLLECTION AGENCY, AND INCREASED BY AN ESTIMATE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS WHEN APPLICABLE. THE AMOUNT DOES NOT INCLUDE DISCOUNTS PROVIDED UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S FAP, INCLUDING DISCOUNTS PROVIDED TO SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS, WHICH ARE ALSO REPORTED AS A REDUCTION OF PATIENT REVENUE. |
| PART III, LINE 4: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INCLUDE A FOOTNOTE DESCRIBING BAD DEBT EXPENSE. SEE PAGES 26-27 OF THE ATTACHED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. |
| PART III, LINE 8: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL USED ITS FILED MEDICARE COST REPORT TO OBTAIN THE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COST REPORTED ON PART III, SECTION B. AS A CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, THE HOSPITAL HAS A SMALL POPULATION OF MEDICARE PATIENTS AND IS PAID LESS THAN COST DUE TO THE REIMBURSEMENT METHODOLOGY USED BY MEDICARE. THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL SHOULD BE TREATED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE THE REIMBURSEMENT IS NOT NEGOTIABLE AND DOES NOT COVER THE COST TO PROVIDE THESE MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES TO THIS POPULATION. |
| PART III, LINE 9B: | AT ALL LOCATIONS, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL UNDERTAKES EXTENSIVE MEASURES TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE FAMILIES OF PATIENTS WITH SELF-PAY BALANCES. IN MANY CASES, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND FAMILIES WORK TOGETHER TO OBTAIN COVERAGE THROUGH THE STATE MEDICAID PROGRAM. IN CASES WHERE MEDICAID COVERAGE IS NOT AVAILABLE, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL SEEKS TO OBTAIN INFORMATION NECESSARY TO DETERMINE THE PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S FAP. ONCE A PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE HAS BEEN DETERMINED, THE BALANCE ON THE PATIENT'S ACCOUNT IS ADJUSTED ACCORDINGLY. IN ADDITION, HOSPITAL PERSONNEL WORK CLOSELY WITH FAMILIES TO DETERMINE THEIR ABILITY TO PAY THE ADJUSTED BALANCES; SUCH EFFORTS OFTEN RESULT IN PAYMENT PLANS INTENDED TO PERMIT THE GRADUAL PAYMENT OF AMOUNTS DUE WITHOUT IMPOSING UNDUE FINANCIAL HARDSHIP ON FAMILIES ALREADY DEALING WITH THE CHALLENGES OF CHILDREN'S HEALTH ISSUES. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE REMAIN CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE PATIENTS' ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE CANNOT BE DETERMINED DUE TO THE INACCESSIBILITY OF THE FAMILY, OR THE FAMILY'S INABILITY OR REFUSAL TO PROVIDE THE REQUIRED INFORMATION. IN SUCH CASES, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL FOLLOWS AN ESTABLISHED MULTI-STEP PROCESS IN AN EFFORT TO REACH THE FAMILY AND PROVIDE THEM WITH INFORMATION ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE PROGRAM. ACCOUNTS ARE SENT TO COLLECTIONS ONLY AFTER ALL ESTABLISHED STEPS HAVE BEEN UNDERTAKEN WITHOUT SUCCESS. |
| PART VI, LINE 2: | IN MILWAUKEE AND THE FOX VALLEY COMMUNITIES, THE HOSPITALS, IN COLLABORATION WITH A TEAM OF OTHER HOSPITAL SYSTEMS, HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS, COMMUNITY AGENCIES, LOCAL PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS, COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS OR OTHER HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, HAS DEVELOPED A COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT SURVEY TO ASSESS THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY. THE ASSESSMENTS ARE REFLECTIVE OF INPUT GATHERED IN BOTH INDIVIDUAL INTERVIEWS AND SMALL FOCUS GROUPS, AS WELL AS PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DATA ANALYSIS. IN ADDITION, CHW-MILWAUKEE CONDUCTED A THOROUGH REVIEW OF ADDITIONAL SECONDARY DATA SUCH AS THE WISCONSIN FAMILY HEALTH SURVEY, COUNTY HEALTH RANKING REPORT AND THE WISCONSIN HEALTHIEST PEOPLE 2020 TO ASSESS THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY. THE SECONDARY DATA ALLOWED FOR CHILDREN'S TO GAIN A DEEPER UNDERSTAND OF THE IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH ISSUES RELATED TO A PEDIATRIC POPULATION. |
| PART VI, LINE 3: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL WORKS CLOSELY WITH PATIENTS' FAMILIES TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND AND ENROLL IN MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE THROUGH THE STATE OF WISCONSIN, AND WHERE APPROPRIATE, FEDERAL PROGRAMS. WHEN SUCH PROGRAMS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, HOWEVER, PATIENTS MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE UNDER CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S ESTABLISHED POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS PUBLICIZED THROUGH VARIOUS MEASURES, INCLUDING INFORMATION ON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE AND WRITTEN BROCHURES OR OTHER MATERIALS PROVIDED TO PATIENTS' FAMILIES. A PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY IS AVAILABLE IN WAITING AREAS. THE MOST SIGNIFICANT EDUCATION, HOWEVER, OCCURS IN DIRECT DIALOGUE BETWEEN PATIENT FAMILIES AND CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S TRAINED FINANCIAL SERVICES COUNSELORS AND SOCIAL WORKERS. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL MAKES EFFORTS TO PROVIDE FACE-TO-FACE DIALOGUE, AS WELL AS COMMUNICATION VIA TELEPHONE, E-MAIL AND OTHER MEANS, AS NECESSARY TO ENSURE THAT FAMILIES ARE PROVIDED WITH SUFFICIENT INFORMATION REGARDING ALTERNATIVES FOR OBTAINING FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE, AS WELL AS THE BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCESS GENERALLY. THE COMMUNICATION PROCESS IS SUPPORTED BY INTERPRETER SERVICES AS NEEDED. |
| PART VI, LINE 4: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE TO CHILDREN FROM URBAN, RURAL, AND SUBURBAN AREAS, REGARDLESS OF RACE, GENDER, ETHNICITY, INCOME, DISABILITY, OR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN AT BOTH OF ITS HOSPITAL SITES. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL PROVIDES ACUTE LEVEL SERVICES, AS WELL AS EMERGENCY AND SPECIALTY CARE PRIMARILY TO CHILDREN FROM SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN, BUT TREATS PATIENTS FROM THE ENTIRE STATE OF WISCONSIN AND THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. APPROXIMATELY HALF OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S PATIENTS ARE MEDICAID BENEFICIARIES, AND IN 2017 APPROXIMATELY HALF OF GROSS CHARGES WERE FROM PATIENTS ENROLLED IN MEDICAID. |
| PART VI, LINE 5: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL PROMOTES THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF CHILDREN LOCATED THROUGHOUT ITS SERVICE AREA. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OPERATES AN EMERGENCY ROOM OPEN TO ALL PERSONS, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE ABILITY TO PAY. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS CONSISTS OF INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING THE COMMUNITY.

IN ADDITION, CHILDREN'S SUCCESSFULLY ADVOCATED FOR SEVERAL PIECES OF PUBLIC POLICY WITH PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS, INCLUDING LEGISLATION WHICH WILL ALLOW WISCONSIN DENTAL HYGIENISTS TO PRACTICE PREVENTIVE ORAL HEALTH CARE IN MORE SETTINGS IN ORDER TO BETTER ACCOMMODATE PATIENTS' NEEDS, ENSURING A FAVORABLE CONTRACTING ENVIRONMENT FOR NONPROFIT SOCIAL SERVICE PROVIDERS AND HELPING FAMILIES REPLACE LEAD PIPES ON THEIR PROPERTY. WE WERE ALSO SUPPORTIVE OF A SET OF NEW LAWS AIMED TO PROTECT VULNERABLE CHILD VICTIMS OF SEX TRAFFICKING BY INCREASING OFFENDER PENALTIES. WITH THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC DRASTICALLY IMPACTING THE LIVES OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN WISCONSIN, CHILDREN'S SUPPORTED A HOST OF NEW LAWS TO PREVENT AND COMBAT THE EFFECTS OF OPIOID ABUSE, INCLUDING EXPANSION OF FUNDING FOR FAMILY TREATMENT COURTS, INCREASED FUNDING FOR AN ADDICTION MEDICINE CONSULTATION LINE, ALLOWING SCHOOL PERSONNEL TO ADMINISTER NALOXONE AND FURTHER REGULATING THE SALES OF PRODUCTS WITH CODEINE AND PSEUDOEPHEDRINE. ON THE FEDERAL LEVEL IN 2017, CHILDREN'S ADVOCATED TO PROTECT MEDICAID FUNDING FOR CHILDREN AND EDUCATED LAWMAKERS ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF ACCESS TO HIGH QUALITY HEALTH CARE FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. MEDICAID ADVOCACY AND EDUCATION WAS ONE OF OUR TOP PRIORITIES BECAUSE THERE WERE VARIOUS FEDERAL LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS INTRODUCED THAT AIMED TO SIGNIFICANTLY REFORM THE PROGRAM WHICH THREATENED CHILDREN'S ACCESS TO COVERAGE AND BENEFITS. WE ALSO ADVOCATED FOR LEGISLATION TO REAUTHORIZE THE CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM (CHIP) AND CONTINUE FUNDING FOR 2018 AND BEYOND. WITH RESPECT TO THE VARIOUS PROPOSALS TO REPEAL AND REPLACE THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT (ACA), CHILDREN'S ADVOCATED TO PROTECT CHILDREN'S ACCESS TO CARE BY MAINTAINING MANY OF ACA'S CRITICAL PRIVATE INSURANCE MARKET REFORMS, SUCH AS THE PROHIBITION ON DENYING COVERAGE OR CHARGING MORE BECAUSE OF A PRE-EXISTING CONDITION.

CHILDREN'S ALSO SUPPORTED LEGISLATION REAUTHORIZING FUNDING FOR THE MATERNAL, INFANT AND EARLY CHILDHOOD HOME VISITING (MIECHV) PROGRAM TO ENSURE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES HAVE ACCESS TO SUPPORTIVE PREVENTIVE SERVICES TO KEEP CHILDREN SAFELY AT HOME. CHILDREN'S CONTINUES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE COALITION FOR PEDIATRIC MEDICAL RESEARCH WHICH WORKS ON DEVELOPING LEGISLATION TO STRENGTHEN NIH INVESTMENTS IN PEDIATRIC AND CHILD HEALTH RESEARCH.IN ADDITION TO ADVOCACY, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY SERVICES DIVISION HAS INITIATED A COMMUNITY-BASED EFFORT TO IMPROVE CHILD HEALTH THAT ACKNOWLEDGES THE INFLUENCE OF SOCIAL, CULTURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS ON HEALTH AND RECOGNIZES THAT SUCH INFLUENCES MAY HAVE PARTICULARLY DELETERIOUS EFFECTS WHEN THEY OCCUR DURING CRITICAL PERIODS OVER ONE'S LIFE COURSE. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL IS BRINGING THE FULL SPECTRUM OF THE SYSTEM'S RESOURCES TO BEAR IN THE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT EFFORT. BY CONNECTING OUR VAST CLINICAL AND COMMUNITY-BASED RESOURCES SCHOOL NURSES, COMMUNITY PEDIATRICIANS, SOCIAL WORKERS, HEALTH EDUCATORS, FOSTER CARE PARENTS, HOSPITALISTS, EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT STAFF, RESEARCHERS AND POLICY MAKERS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL IS FACILITATING COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT BOTH DIRECTLY (E.G., EXPANDING MENTAL HEALTH AND DENTAL CARE IN UNDERSERVED AREAS), AND INDIRECTLY (E.G., BRINGING LAW ENFORCEMENT TO THE COMMUNITY CONVERSATION RELATED TO CRIME REDUCTION; SUPPORTING POLICY CHANGES AT THE LOCAL, STATE AND NATIONAL LEVELS THAT HAVE AN IMPACT ON CHILD HEALTH). CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL HAS SELECTED FIVE NEIGHBORHOODS FOR ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS. THESE NEIGHBORHOODS WERE IDENTIFIED BECAUSE THEY HAD A HIGH CONCENTRATION OF PEDIATRIC-AGED RESIDENTS; THERE WERE SIGNIFICANT, BUT MODIFIABLE, CHALLENGES TO CHILD HEALTH OUTCOMES; AND THEY HAD EXISTING TRUSTED COMMUNITY RESOURCES THAT WERE WILLING TO PARTNER WITH CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL TO ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY IN NEW WAYS TO IMPROVE CHILD HEALTH OUTCOMES. (CONTINUED ON PAGE 97) |
| PART VI, LINE 6: AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM (CONTINUED) | AS A PARTNER AND FACILITATOR, CHILDREN'S HOPSITAL'S STAFF HAS ENCOURAGED LEADERS FROM THE PRIORITY NEIGHBORHOODS TO IDENTIFY KEY AREAS FOR STRATEGIC INTERVENTION. AS A RESULT OF SEVERAL FACILITATED LISTENING SESSIONS, TWO OF THE THREE NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE ARTICULATED HEALTH AS A KEY AREA FOR STRATEGIC INTERVENTION AND THE COMMUNITIES NOW ARE IDENTIFYING SPECIFIC CATEGORIES WITHIN THE LARGER RUBRIC OF "HEALTH" ON WHICH TO CONCENTRATE IMPROVEMENT EFFORTS. ONE STRATEGY THAT HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED IS USING COMMUNITY NAVIGATORS TRUSTED LOCAL RESIDENTS WHO EDUCATE NEIGHBORS ABOUT A SPECIFIC BEHAVIOR CHANGE OR RESOURCE UTILIZATION THAT WILL RESULT IN IMPROVED HEALTH OUTCOMES. CHHS'S FOCUS IS TO HAVE RELEVANT, ACCURATE, RESIDENT-LEVEL INFORMATION REGARDING TRUSTED SOURCES OF INFORMATION AND DIRECT INFLUENCES ON RESIDENT'S BEHAVIORS. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL IS PARTNERING WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE CENTER OF EXCELLENCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY IN WISCONSIN TO UTILIZE COMMUNITY-MAPPED "WAYS OF KNOWING" TO BEST UNDERSTAND DIRECT INFLUENCES ON HEALTH BEHAVIORS IN THE SELECTED COMMUNITIES. THE COMMUNITY NAVIGATORS ARE WORKING COLLABORATIVELY WITH THE CENTER'S COMMUNITY HEALTH EDUCATOR TO FOSTER KEY RELATIONSHIPS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL FACILITATED THE DEVELOPMENT OF CULTURALLY AND LINGUISTICALLY APPROPRIATE EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS FOR THE COMMUNITY NAVIGATORS AND LED THE TRAINING OF BOTH THE COMMUNITY NAVIGATORS AND THE CENTER'S COMMUNITY HEALTH EDUCATOR. THIS COORDINATED APPROACH WILL ALLOW CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND THE CENTER TO FACILITATE EFFECTIVE COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION THAT IS RESPECTFUL OF THE LOCAL CULTURE. IN ADDITION, THE COLLABORATION ALLOWS FOR COMMUNITY-LED MEASUREMENT OF IDENTIFIED OUTCOMES FACILITATING COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT AND CONTRIBUTING TO SUSTAINABLE CHANGES.CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MILWAUKEE HELEN BADER SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WELFARE HAVE ESTABLISHED THE INSTITUTE FOR CHILD AND FAMILY WELL-BEING, AN ACADEMIC-COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES FACING COMPLEX CHALLENGES SUCH AS VIOLENCE, INCARCERATION OR EXTREME POVERTY. THE INSTITUTE COMPRISES THREE CORE SERVICE AREAS: DESIGNING AND IMPLEMENTING EFFECTIVE PROGRAMS, CONDUCTING CUTTING-EDGE RESEARCH AND EVALUATION, AND PROMOTING CHANGE THROUGH POLICY AND ADVOCACY. THIS WORK IS CRITICAL BECAUSE NEARLY ONE THIRD OF CHILDREN IN MILWAUKEE (30.5%) HAVE HAD AT LEAST TWO ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES SUCH AS MALTREATMENT, NEGLECT, VIOLENCE OR EXTREME POVERTY WHICH IS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE OF 22.6 PERCENT (DATA RESOURCE CENTER FOR CHILD & ADOLESCENT HEALTH). RESEARCH HAS PROVEN THAT CHILDHOOD ADVERSITY ACTUALLY INTERRUPTS CHILDREN'S BRAIN DEVELOPMENT, CAUSING INCREASED LIKELIHOOD OF MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, JUVENILE DELINQUENCY AND TEEN PREGNANCY, IN ADDITION TO POOR LONG-TERM HEALTH OUTCOMES AND DECREASED ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT, WHICH CAN LEAD TO LONG-TERM EMPLOYABILITY ISSUES.THESE AFFILIATED PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES SEEK TO ENSURE THAT CHILDREN HAVE ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES.PART VI, LINE 7: CHHS, THE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, PREPARES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT ON BEHALF OF BOTH OF THE HOSPITALS AND ITS AFFILIATES. THE REPORT IS FILED WITH THE WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION AND IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE OR UPON REQUEST. |

THROUGH PROJECT SEARCH, YOUNG ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES RECEIVE INTERNSHIPS WITHIN THE HOSPITAL TO GAIN ON-THE-JOB TRAINING AND OTHER CAREER DEVELOPMENT SKILLS TO SECURE COMPETITIVE EMPLOYMENT. IN THE FOX VALLEY, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND THEDACARE REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER-NEENAH PARTNER WITH ROOSEVELT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TO PROMOTE HEALTHY HABITS AND CIVIC RESPONSIBILITY TO STUDENTS.CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL STAFFS THE CHILDREN'S HEALTH ALLIANCE OF WISCONSIN, A STATEWIDE COALITION THAT WORKS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF WISCONSIN CHILDREN AND REDUCE DISPARITIES IN AVAILABILITY AND ACCESSIBILITY OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES. THE ALLIANCE IS GUIDED BY A STATEWIDE ADVISORY BOARD AND PARTNERS WITH HUNDREDS OF ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS TO RAISE AWARENESS OF CHILD HEALTH CONCERNS, MOBILIZE LEADERS, IMPACT PUBLIC HEALTH, AND IMPLEMENT PROGRAMS PROVEN TO WORK. THE ALLIANCE IS PARTIALLY FUNDED THROUGH A WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES MATERNAL CHILD HEALTH GRANT, THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, AND OTHER PUBLIC AND PRIVATE FUNDING. THE ALLIANCE IS FINANCIALLY SUPPORTED BY CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL THROUGH STAFF AND OTHER RESOURCES TO CARRY ON THE ALLIANCE'S PROGRAMS.

FAMILIES AND PROVIDERS CAN CALL THE CENTER FOR INFORMATION, REFERRAL AND PROBLEM-SOLVING RELATED TO COMMUNITY AND STATE SERVICES, HEALTH BENEFITS ASSISTANCE, TRANSITION PLANNING, AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT. EACH YEAR THE STAFF OFFERS TRAINING SUCH AS "CARE IN THE COMMUNITY AND OTHER SESSIONS THAT FOCUS ON YOUTH TRANSITIONS. STAFF ALSO PARTICIPATE IN NUMEROUS COMMUNITY INITIATIVES AND PARTNER WITH AREA PEDIATRICIANS AND OTHER HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS TO INCORPORATE EARLY IDENTIFICATION AND SCREENING METHODS INTO THEIR PRACTICES. EACH YEAR, STAFF SHARE THEIR EXPERTISE, LEADERSHIP AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE WITH VARIOUS COMMUNITY AGENCIES AND COMMITTEES. THE CENTER SERVES EIGHT COUNTIES. IN THE FOX VALLEY, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL ALSO SUPPORTS THE NORTHEAST REGIONAL CENTER FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH WITH SPECIAL HEALTH CARE NEEDS, WHICH PROVIDES SIMILAR SERVICES TO THE SOUTHEAST CENTER DESCRIBED ABOVE WITH A FOCUS ON COUNTIES IN WISCONSIN'S FOX VALLEY. ADDITIONALLY, ONE OF THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED AS PART OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT CONDUCTED IN THE FOX VALLEY WAS ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH CARE SERVICES. THEREFORE, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, ALONG WITH AFFINITY HEALTH SYSTEM AND THEDACARE, CREATED AN ORGANIZATION CALLED CATALPA HEALTH TO PROVIDE OUTPATIENT CHILD AND ADOLESCENT MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES IN THE FOX VALLEY. |
