Desc	Part of Ascension Wisconsin, Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare-Franklin opened in April 2008 and represents a model of care focused on health and wellness. Designed with healing in mind, the 275,000 square-foot hospital uses natural light and a serene environment to create a tranquil atmosphere and promote a feeling of peace. The hospital was built with sustainable and renewable resources in order to improve efficiency and reduce the negative impact on the environment. Nursing stations are located centrally to promote patient safety and reduce walking time for caregivers. The hospital also features a wireless network infrastructure benefiting both staff and visitors. State-of-the-art technology reduces human error in record keeping and prescriptions, improving patient safety and quality of care. Franklin Hospital consistently ranks high in patient satisfaction for inpatient services and emergency care. Our 52-licensed bed hospital, which includes a six-bed Intensive Care Unit, provides a full range of inpatient and day surgery services as well as: an 18-room Emergency Department; surgical services with gastroenterology/endoscopy suites; full-service imaging and interventional radiology; cardiac cath lab; physical therapy; lab and pharmacy. This hospital brings care closer to growing communities in southern Milwaukee County, providing convenience and cost-efficiency in care. In June 2013, the Franklin Hospital opened a 65,000 square foot medical office building on its campus that houses a full spectrum of primary care and specialist physician offices. Through the efforts of hospital staff, Franklin provides community outreach and support through mission integration activities of the mission committee. Efforts such as the Thanksgiving food drive, the Mission Closet or "Shoebox" gifts filled with Christmas toys provide an avenue for associates to actively help those in need.	Desc

A total of 1,967 telephone interviews were completed between March 16 and July 14, 2015 for Milwaukee County including 400 interviews during the same timeframe for the City of Franklin.

Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility 1, 1	Facility 1, 1 - Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare - Franklin, Inc.. Using the CHNA completed in June 2016, the hospital developed, adopted, and worked on executing a three-year Implementation Strategy to address priority community health needs. In Fiscal Year 2017 (Tax Year 2016), the hospital implemented the following plan to address the priority needs: Healthy Lifestyle -- Educate local community on healthy lifestyle topics -- Collaborated with local community organizations to host a run/walk event in Franklin -- Collaborated with local health department to offer a health and wellness event -- Offered pre-diabetes classes and community education -- Hosted county-wide family health night event to offer health education and screening Substance Abuse -- Promote understanding and awareness -- Offered literature on bullying prevention to community -- Collaborated with Franklin school system to discuss educational resources for bullying prevention -- Provided AODA and mental health information during community events -- Participated in "Light and Unite Red" campaign led by the Milwaukee County Behavioral Health Division (BHD) to create awareness of the dangers of substance abuse -- Participated in Franklin Area Parents and Students United (FAPSU) collation to prevent and reduce alcohol, tobacco and drug use. While our organization understands the importance of meeting all of the needs of the community, an in depth assessment was completed in which the key leaders, involved in the day to day work within the Franklin facility, were able to identify the needs that would be most impacted by the site. Explanation on needs identified in CHNA that are not being addressed: The top health needs identified by the Franklin leadership team through the community health needs assessment that were not a part of the current implementation plan were as follows: * Access to care/coverage: Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare - Franklin is aware that other facilities within our organization that serve the Milwaukee and Racine population, St. Joseph Campus and All Saints Campus, currently focus their efforts and include Access to Care on their 2016 Implementation Plan. Through our community health needs assessment process, the Milwaukee Health Care partnership was also made aware of existing strategies through our key informants. Existing strategies listed by the interviewees included free clinics, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC), the Milwaukee Health Care Partnership, employee wellness programs, emergency medical services, community paramedicine, 2-1-1, the Milwaukee Enrollment Network, community health workers and navigators, natural health options, exercise and nutrition classes, and other health-related workshops. We are committed to supporting St. Joseph Campus as well as All Saints and the other resources that are addressing this need in a secondary capacity when necessary. * High cholesterol: Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare - Franklin understands this growing concern, and we believe that high cholesterol falls under the realm of our focus on a healthy lifestyle through our efforts focusing on obesity. Although high cholesterol is not a singled-out focus on the 2016 implementation plan, we are aware of other efforts throughout the community to support this concern. * Mental and Behavioral Health: While Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare - Franklin understands this growing concern, at the time of assessment, the resources and expertise were not available to address and make a meaningful impact on Mental and Behavioral Health. During the community health needs assessment process, the Milwaukee Health Care Partnership was made aware of several existing strategies through our key informants such as: inpatient and outpatient mental health services; increased bullying awareness; housing first strategy; community behavioral health redesign (underway); Milwaukee Center for Independence programming that manages medication and re-integrates people with mental health issues into the community, jobs, and housing; crisis intervention training for employees; efforts within schools and school-community partnerships; mental and behavioral health task forces; implementing trauma-informed care; and more mental health providers being added in the community. We will continue to support these efforts in a secondary capacity as necessary.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 16 Facility 1, 1	Facility 1, 1 - Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare - Franklin, Inc.. Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare takes several proactive approaches to make our patients aware of our financial assistance policy. In addition to our policy being posted on our website and available to anyone who requests one, there is abundant signage throughout our facility explaining our financial assistance policy and how to obtain the actual policy, if desired. Notices regarding the availability of financial assistance are displayed in highly visible locations where there is a significant volume of inpatient or outpatient traffic such as in patient admitting and registration areas (both inpatient and outpatient settings), physician offices, and emergency departments. Brochures describing the policy are available in the same locations, and the policy is discussed at the time of registration or pre-registration, admission, discharge, and with billing for those identified with a need. Patients who call and express a financial hardship with paying their bill will be assisted by a customer service representative, who will assist the patient in setting up an appointment to meet with a financial advocate who will go over the financial assistance policy in detail, get the financial assistance application process started, and educate the patient regarding any questions they may have. Lastly, our patient statements also include notifications about the availability of financial assistance and a phone number to call for more information. Additionally, our Financial Assistance Policy, Financial Assistance Application, and Plain Language Summary are available on our website, https://www.mywheaton.org/about-wheaton/billing-information/#policy. The Financial Assistance Policy and Application have been translated into 8 languages: English, Spanish, Chinese, Hmong, Laotian, Arabic, Russian, and Serbian/Croatian.

Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 SCH A, PART I, LINE 7	COMMUNITY BENEFIT AMOUNTS ARE COMPILED USING TOTAL ACTUAL COSTS PER THE HOSPITAL'S MANAGERIAL ACCOUNTING SYSTEM IN USE, WHICH INCLUDES ALL PATIENT SEGMENTS INCLUDING INPATIENT, OUTPATIENT, EMERGENCY ROOM, PRIVATE INSURANCE, MEDICAID, MEDICARE, MEDICARE HMO, UNINSURED, AND SELF-PAY PATIENTS. MEDICARE IS REPORTED USING THE MOST RECENTLY FILED COST REPORT AT THE TIME THE ANNUAL REPORT AND RELATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT INFORMATION IS PUBLISHED. COMMUNITY BENEFIT AMOUNTS WERE DETERMINED FOR EXTERNAL REPORTING PURPOSES, AND AMOUNTS ARE SUMMARIZED USING A SOFTWARE APPLICATION RECOMMENDED BY THE CATHOLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATION BECAUSE IT HAS THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE THE INFORMATION IN A FORMAT SUITABLE FOR SCHEDULE H PRESENTATION. WHEATON FRANCISCAN HEALTHCARE ALSO VOLUNTARILY REPORTS COMMUNITY BENEFIT INFORMATION IN WISCONSIN BY MAKING THE INFORMATION READILY AVAILABLE ON CERTAIN WEBSITES, AND REPORTING THE INFORMATION TO THE WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 17 Billing and Collection Policy	During tax year 2017, the organization learned via verbal comments of IRS agents at public events that the IRS intends that the "readily obtainable" standard in the 501(r) regulations for the AGB calculation and billing and collection policy is only met if those items are posted to the organization's web site. The organization had interpreted that web posting standard to be a safe harbor after consulting with external counsel and tax advisors, and timely took other steps to make the information readily obtainable. Consequently, the organization does not believe its decision to not post these documents to its web site rises to the level of a failure, nor does it believe the circumstances were either willful or egregious, having otherwise timely taken the steps necessary to attain and continue to maintain compliance with the other requirements related to the billing and collection policy and the AGB, as part of its policies and procedures for ensuring compliance with all aspects of 501(r). However, the organization is making this voluntary disclosure in order to communicate to the IRS the changes it is undertaking in response to the recent IRS informal guidance on this specific point concerning the "readily obtainable" standard, and the fact that the organization has started the work necessary to post its AGB information and billing and collection policy to its web site and will complete those additional postings as soon as reasonably possible. The other web postings required under 501(r) (i.e., those related to the community health needs assessment and the financial assistance policy) were timely completed and continue to remain in place as required. The organization believes its safeguards worked as intended in this case (i.e., the organization has regular communications with a number of external law firms and tax consultants and the timely attention to the recent guidance was supported by the framework of regular access to subject matter experts). These changes are in the process of being incorporated into corporate policies and procedures that apply to the organization.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 6a Community benefit report prepared by related organization	Ascension Wisconsin
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7g Subsidized Health Services	WHEATON FRANCISCAN HEALTHCARE HAS A SEPARATELY ORGANIZED ENTITY, WHEATON FRANCISCAN MEDICAL GROUP, INC. WHERE ALL PHYSICIAN CLINIC COSTS ARE GROUPED. THE HOSPITAL HAS THEREFORE NOT INCLUDED ANY PHYSICIAN CLINIC COSTS IN SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistance	The cost of providing charity care, means-tested government programs, and other community benefit programs is estimated using internal cost data, and is calculated in compliance with Catholic Health Association ("CHA") guidelines. The organization uses a cost accounting system that addresses all patient segments (for example, inpatient, outpatient, emergency room, private insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, uninsured, or self pay). The best available data was used to calculate the amounts reported in the table. For the information in the table, a cost-to-charge ratio was calculated and applied.
Schedule H, Part II Community Building Activities	In the area of community building, Ascension Franklin Hospital provides health care career education and presentations to elementary schools and high schools in Milwaukee County. The presentations focus on professional roles and work responsibilities within a health care system.The hospital also participates in the STRIDE Program, students are taught soft skills to use in the future after graduating high school. According to the County Health Rankings, employment provides income and, often, benefits that can support healthy lifestyle choices. Unemployment and under employment limit these choices, and negatively affect both quality of life and health overall. In addition, Ascension All Saints Hospital staff support local homeless shelters by providing and serving meals to persons living in poverty. Food insecurity has been shown to be linked to increased risk of chronic diseases, particularly among low income populations.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount	After satisfaction of amounts due from insurance and reasonable efforts to collect from the patient have been exhausted, the Corporation follows established guidelines for placing certain past-due patient balances within collection agencies, subject to the terms of certain restrictions on collection efforts as determined by Ascension Health. Accounts receivable are written off after collection efforts have been followed in accordance with the Corporation's policies. After applying the cost-to-charge ratio, the share of the bad debt expense in fiscal year 2017 was 1,782,573.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense Methodology	The provision for doubtful accounts is based upon management's assessment of expected net collections considering historical experience, economic conditions, trends in healthcare coverage, and other collection indicators. Periodically throughout the year, management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical write-off experience by payor category, including those amounts not covered by insurance. The results of this review are then used to make any modifications to the provision for doubtful accounts to establish an appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote	The organization is part of the Ascension Health Alliance's consolidated audit in which the footnote that discusses the bad debt expense begins on page 17.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs	A cost to charge ratio is applied to the organization's Medicare Expense to determine the Medicare allowable costs reported in the organization's Medicare Cost Report. Ascension Health and its related health ministries follow the Catholic Health Association (CHA) guidelines for determining community benefit. CHA community benefit reporting guidelines suggest that Medicare shortfall is not treated as community benefit.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance	Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare - Franklin, Inc. FOLLOWS THE ASCENSION GUIDELINES FOR COLLECTION PRACTICES RELATED TO PATIENTS QUALIFYING FOR CHARITY OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. A PATIENT CAN APPLY FOR CHARITY OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT ANY TIME DURING THE COLLECTION CYCLE. ONCE QUALIFYING DOCUMENTATION IS RECEIVED, THE PATIENT'S ACCOUNT IS ADJUSTED.

ONCE A PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR CHARITY OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, ALL COLLECTION ACTIVITY IS SUSPENDED.

Explanation	Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare maintains files and records to manage the decision-making and award process for organizations that it provides community sponsorship dollars to. Decisions are made by a Community Sponsorship Committee with leaders who hold positions in Diversity, Strategic Planning, Mission Services, Marketing and Philanthropy. The Committee generally strives to sponsor organizations that have missions that align with the mission, vision and values of Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare. The committee also looks for certain other criteria when deciding which organizations will receive contributions, including but not limited to supporting healthcare related activities within the Southeast Wisconsin, Iowa, and Illinois markets, supporting programming that work to further diversity and cultural competency, aligning with other WFH business relationships or service lines, supporting student academic achievement or workforce development initiatives, and finally, supporting environmental "green" initiatives. Leaders periodically meet with representatives of sponsored organizations to discuss objectives including how dollars will be spent. Additionally, Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare may, at a later date, ask for documentation in order to monitor that funds were spent for their intended purpose. Currently, confirmation letters are sent to sponsored organizations when award dollars are given, that confirm the dollar amount awarded and the intended purpose, with a request that the recipient acknowledge receipt of the funds in written correspondence. Files are maintained in the Organizational Change and Leadership Performance Department to include copies of letters of request, award and denial letters, additional documentation if requested, and acknowledgement receipts from sponsored organizations.
