Part V, Line 4:The Hospital classifies as permanently restricted net assets (a) the original value of the gifts donated to the permanent endowment when explicit donor stipulations requiring permanent maintenance of the historical fair value are present, and (b) the original value of the subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment when explicit donor stipulations requiring permanent maintenance of the historical fair value are present. The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment fund comprised of accumulated gains not required to be maintained in perpetuity is classified as temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure in a manner consistent with the donor's stipulations. The Hospital considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds: duration and preservation of the fund, purposes of the donor-restricted endowment funds, general economic conditions, the possible effect of inflation and deflation, the expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments, other resources of the Hospital, and the investment policies of the Hospital.

ExplanationA fund that was established to accept gifts given in support of the Hospital's initiative to provide healthcare support in countries whose citizens suffer from fragmented and/or non-existent medical delivery systems. Initially the fund will be used to provide medical support for the Hospital's participation in medical missionary work in Honduras in partnership with Yale University and Medical School. Moneys from the fund may be used to purchase medical supplies and equipment, underwrite travel and accommodations for staff from the Hospital and Yale who participate in the medical missions, and other expenses associated with operating a medical mission trip. Over time, it is possible that the Hospital will adjust its participation in medical mission work. Such changes could include operating medical trips to countries other than Honduras, change of affiliation to a partner other than Yale University, etc.ExplanationTxt

Part V, Section BFacility Reporting Group A
Facility Reporting Group A consists of:- Facility 1: THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL, - Facility 2: THE loWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL
THE Lowell General Hospital Part V, Section B, line 3j:Lowell General Hospital completes a community health needs assessment every three years. Information for the needs assessment was collected from multiple sources, in three different ways: (1) focus groups, (2) key informant interviews, and (3) a review of publicly collected health and demographic statistics from the Mass CHIP database. There were 16 focus groups with a total of 167 participants. The focus groups were conducted in English, Khmer, Spanish, Portuguese and other languages, as needed. The University of Massachusetts Lowell conducted three key informant interviews.
THE Lowell General Hospital Part V, Section B, line 5:Information for the needs assessment was collected from multiple sources, in three different ways: (1) focus groups, (2) key informant interviews, and (3) a review of publicly collected health and demographic statistics from the MassCHIP database. There were 16 focus groups with a total of 167 participants. The focus groups were conducted in English, Khmer, Spanish, Portuguese and other languages, as needed. The University of Massachusetts Lowell conducted three key informant interviews.All participants in the focus groups and key informant interviews indicated that providers and agencies in Lowell collaborate well, especially Lowell General Hospital and Lowell Community Health Center. They also acknowledged strong collaboration between communities, agencies and providers. Some felt that Lowell and Lowell area services have a "good public health approach." The community focus groups also felt that good attention to diverse communities, outreach at community events, good prevention programs, and strong services for immigrants, refugees, and the homeless at LCHC were all strengths of the healthcare system.More than 50 Greater Lowell professionals participated in the focus groups and personal interviews - including school nurses, hospital executives, town managers and local health department directors, as well as individuals representing the councils of aging, skilled nursing facilities and various community-based organizations. These individuals were asked to speak to the strengths and weaknesses of the area's health system and suggest changes to improve it.The health and demographic data available within the greater Lowell area was thoroughly investigated, focusing substantially on the issues or problems indicated from the personal and focus group interviews, as well as the public health data and statistics. These data indicated that the greater Lowell area saw a doubling of the rate of mental health hospitalizations between 1989 and 2006. In addition, Lowell has seen increases in problematic alcohol consumption and opiate-related mortality. The experience in the Lowell area was also compared, as appropriate, with the statewide experience. In so doing, we found that the use of Emergency Department services in Lowell is 39% higher than the state average in most recent data available, 2002 through 2005. When reliable information was available, we additionally examined the comparative experience of different demographic subgroups. The mortality rate among asian-americans in the greater Lowell area, for example, was nearly twice as high as the Massachusetts average for this group. In addition to providing supplemental information on healthcare concerns voiced by various study respondents, the data analysis also indicated other important findings, most importantly, that the proportion of individuals in Lowell without health insurance increased substantially between 2000 and 2008.
THE Lowell General Hospital Part V, Section B, line 6b:Lowell General Hospital conducted the last Community Health Needs Assessment with researchers and students of University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML) and the Greater Lowell Health Alliance (GLHA).
THE Lowell General Hospital Part V, Section B, line 11:The top health problems that were identified in the focus groups and interviews and supported by public health data include mental health, diabetes, substance abuse and addiction, hypertension, obesity, and asthma and respiratory disease. The hospital is addressing the significant needs identified in the latest community health needs assessment by incorporating these into the organization's annual community benefit plan. The community benefit plan is an action plan developed annually by hospital leaders to address priority health needs within the Greater Lowell region. Lowell General Hospital and the Greater Lowell Health Alliance are committed to a collaborative approach involving other community stakeholders with the goal to identify top priorities and formulate action steps that will improve the area healthcare system and overall community health.The major weaknesses identified in the 2016 community health needs assessment include mental and behavioral health needs that are not being met, lack of substance abuse resources, difficult and/or lack of access to care for many Lowell and Greater Lowell residents, need for additional interpretation and translation services, lack of case management services and health navigators, lack of communication between emergency care and PCPs, perception of fragmented care, lack of outreach to vulnerable populations, and lack of health education.
THE Lowell General Hospital Part V, Section B, line 13b:Patients whose household income exceeds 400% of the federal poverty guidelines and who meet Health Safety Net income criteria for Medical Hardship and have balances (after free care) of $10,000 or more. Specifically, these patients may (1) be eligible for Medical Hardship assistance under the Health Safety Net but have patient contribution requirements greater than $10,000 or (2) meet the Medical Hardship income criteria, but are ineligible for free care because the services received are not hospital-licensed services. In such circumstances:(i)Financial assistance will be determined after a review of all financial information and circumstances.(ii)Financial assistance will generally reduce an outstanding balance to 15% of annual income absent significant assets.(iii)Financial assistance up to 100% will be considered based on the patient's particular medical and financial circumstances and must be approved by the Lowell General Hospital Vice President of Revenue or VP Finance/CFO or his/her designee.

SCHEDULE H-PART IPart I, Line 6a & b: The organization prepares a community benefit report every year. The community benefit annual report is available to the public on the organization's website or upon request.Part I, Line 7: The cost allocation is based off the FY2017 total patient care experience (not including bad debt and less the Medicaid provider tax) divided by gross patient service revenue. This percentage is applied to the specific line items to reflect the most accurate cost calculation.
Part II, Community Building Activities:Information for the needs assessment was collected from multiple sources, in three different ways: (1) focus groups, (2) key informant interviews, and (3) a review of publicly collected health and demographic statistics from the MassCHIP database. There were 16 focus groups with a total of 167 participants. The focus groups were conducted in English, Khmer, Spanish, Portuguese and other languages, as needed. The University of Massachusetts Lowell conducted three key informant interviews.The Lowell General Hospital has a close working relationship that includes financial support to Lowell Community Health Center (LCHC) which serves the low-income, medically underserved population, many of whom have no other access to healthcare services. The majority of patients served by LCHC have MassHealth, another 10% have private health insurance or HMO coverage, 7% have Medicare, and 20% are uninsured; and 95% live at or below the poverty level. Almost half of LCHC's patient population is under 18 years of age, and the majority of women are in their childbearing years. In 2007, 37% of patients were white/non-hispanic; 28% were Latino; 27% were Asian (primarily Cambodians) and 8% were African immigrants. Almost 60% of patients were best served in a language other than English. Some of the major services that LCHC provides are - Carino, which provides special care for patients with HIV/AIDS; promotoras programs, which are trained community health workers and volunteers who speak Spanish and/or Portuguese and go through an intensive training with LCHC staff on specific health topics to educate the community; LCHC teen coalition and adolescent health program, which covers everything from mental health and self-esteem issues among girls to educating and involving youth in substance abuse prevention and a journey to healing program for refugee children and children of refugees. Without The Lowell General's financial support to LCHC's pension and worker's compensation program, many of these programs would not have adequate funding. The health and demographic data available within the Greater Lowell area was thoroughly investigated, focusing substantially on the issues or problems indicated from the personal and focus group interviews, as well as the public health data and statistics.
Part III, Line 2:The Bad Debt expense amount detailed on Line 2 is based on the cost to charge ratio calculated from the Medicare Cost Report. Regarding the rationale for including the amount on Line 3 as Charity Care, the Hospital provides an estimate of how much is attributable to persons who would normally qualify for financial assistance under the Hospital's Charity Care policies, but have not taken advantage of the financial assistance that is available to them. Currently through manual processes it is impossible to screen every patient to make an income status determination for qualification to the Hospital's Charity program under a presumptive Charity policy. These individuals that do not seek out Charity programs are often underinsured or low income and do not necessarily consider the benefit of the process of submitting an application to the Hospital. The Hospital continues to provide care to those individuals that have a history of poor credit with the facility and need medically necessary services as we understand that the ability for the community to seek out quality medical services is of the utmost importance and extends our charitable benefit to the community. We believe that had the qualification process taken place this Bad Debt would be classified in the Charity Care of the Hospital. Since the qualification process has not been performed we properly report this as Bad Debt as the actual cost to our Hospital.

Part III, Line 4:the organization's provision for uncollectible accounts is described on page 15 and 16 of the audited financial statements attached. the following is excerpted from that footnote:the provision for uncollectible accounts in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations reflects the charges at established rates for services provided to those individuals who do not qualify for charity care under the guidelines described above, but who are otherwise unable or unwilling to pay the system. the provision for uncollectible accounts of approximately $14,780,000 and $15,144,000 at september 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, respresents charges for services provided that are deemed uncollectible. the estimated cost of providing these services was approximately $5,694,000 and $6,036,000, respectively in 2017 and 2016. such costs have been estimated based on ratios of expenses to estbalished patient service charges.accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for uncollectible accounts. in evaluating the collectability of accounts receivable, the system analyzes its past history and identifies trends for each of its major payor sources of revenue to estimate the appropriate provision for uncollectible accounts. management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for uncollectible accounts. for receivable associated with services provided to patients who have third-party coverage, the system analyzes contractually due amounts and historic payment trends and records estimated contractual allowances. the system records a signficant provision for uncollectible accounts in the period of service on the basis of its past experience, which indictates that many patients are unable or unwilling to pay the portion of their bills for which they are financially responsible. the difference between the standard rates and the amounts actually covered after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted is charged off against the allowance for uncollectible amounts.the system's allowance or uncollectible accounts for all patients increased from 13% of accounts receivable at september 30, 2016 to 19% of accounts receivable as of september 30, 2017. in addition, the system's write-offs, net of recoveries, decreased ($11,219,000) from september 30, 2016 to september 30, 2017. the changes were a result of management's review of historical trends in uncollectible accounts and determination of reserves, including the impact of the provisions of the patient protection and affordable care act. the system has not changed its charity care or uninsured discount policies during 2017 except for the annual update to the amounts generally billed (agb) calculation for individuals eligible for financial assistance. the system does not maintain a material allowance for uncollectible accounts from third-party payors, nor did it have significant bad debt write-offs from third party payors.
Part III, Line 8:There was a decline in Medicare volume for both inpatient and outpatient comparing fiscal years. Also contributing was a decrease in the Medicare inpatient base rate which would explain the lower revenue in FY'17.
Part III, Line 9b:There are two distinctions that are made for patients that are considered either low income by definition of the state of Massachusetts eligibility program or under the Hospital's internal financial assistance program for Charity Care. If the patient is deemed to be low income by the state of Massachusetts, all collection efforts are ceased on prior and current balance accounts. Where appropriate, accounts will be written off to Hospital charity for those accounts that exceed the retroactive look back period. For patients who qualify for the Hospital's internal financial assistance program, the program will qualify the patient for medically necessary services for the period of one year in which the account activity of the patient will be written off to the Hospital's financial assistance program and reported as Charity Care. All collection activities on prior balance accounts ceases at the point of this qualification. Financial counselors work closely with patients to monitor their current financial status to determine any changes in qualifications for both the State and Hospital programs.
Part VI, Line 2:On behalf of Lowell General Hospital, University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML) and the Greater Lowell Health Alliance (GLHA), a team of UMass Lowell researchers and students conducted a community health needs assessment study to distinguish the unmet medical and public health needs within the greater Lowell community. The geographic area assessed included the communities of Lowell, Billerica, Chelmsford, Dracut, Dunstable, Tewksbury, Tyngsborough and Westford. The study had several objectives, which were to: assess the overall health of area residents, identify the strengths and weaknesses of the local healthcare system, determine the top health problems facing area residents and the populations at greatest risk, involve a broad spectrum of professionals and residents, including newer immigrant communities, provide recommendations to improve the healthcare system and address unmet health needs, and inform the process to identify priority health needs and develop action plans to address these priority needs.Information for the Needs Assessment was collected from multiple sources, in three different ways: (1) focus groups, (2) key informant interviews, and (3) a review of publicly collected health and demographic statistics from the MassCHIP database. There were 14 focus groups with a total of 113 participants-majority were conducted in English, but Cambodian community group was conducted in Khmer and the Latino group in Spanish. The University of Massachusetts Lowell conducted six key informant interviews.More than 50 Greater Lowell professionals participated in the focus groups and personal interviews - including school nurses, hospital executives, town managers and local health department directors, as well as individuals representing the councils of aging, skilled nursing facilities and various community-based organizations. These individuals were asked to speak to the strengths and weaknesses of the area's health system and suggest changes to improve it.The health and demographic data available within the greater Lowell area was thoroughly investigated, focusing substantially on the issues or problems indicated from the personal and focus group interviews, as well as the public health data and statistics. These data indicated that the greater Lowell area saw a doubling of the rate of mental health hospitalizations between 1989 and 2006. In addition, Lowell has seen increases in problematic alcohol consumption and opiate-related mortality. The experience in the Lowell area was also compared, as appropriate, with the statewide experience. In so doing, we found that the use of Emergency Department services in Lowell is 39% higher than the state average in most recent data available, 2002 through 2005. When reliable information was available, we additionally examined the comparative experience of different demographic subgroups. The mortality rate among asian-americans in the greater Lowell area, for example, was nearly twice as high as the Massachusetts average for this group. In addition to providing supplemental information on healthcare concerns voiced by various study respondents, the data analysis also indicated other important findings, most importantly, that the proportion of individuals in Lowell without health insurance increased substantially between 2000 and 2008. The next Community Health Needs Assessment will be completed in 2016.
Part VI, Line 3:For those patients who are uninsured or underinsured, the Hospital works with them to assist with applying for available financial assistance programs that may cover some or all of their unpaid hospital bills. In order to help uninsured and underinsured patients find available and appropriate financial assistance programs, the Hospital provides all patients with a general notice of the availability of programs in both the bills that are sent to patients as well as in general notices that are posted throughout the Hospital. In addition to general notices, there are informational brochures available in access areas and during the process of registration anyone that indicates they are having trouble paying their bills or who are uninsured are provided with a business card that identifies how to contact a patient financial counselor. All signs and notices are translated into languages other than English if such language is spoken by 10% or more of the population residing in the Hospital service area. Currently, the Hospital translates the notices into the following languages - Spanish, Portuguese, and Khmer.The Hospital tries to identify available coverage options for patients who may be uninsured or underinsured with their current insurance program when the patient is scheduling their services, while the patient is in the hospital, upon discharge, and for a reasonable time following discharge from the hospital. The Hospital Patient Access staff directs all patients seeking available coverage options or financial assistance to the Hospital's Patient Financial Counseling office to determine if they are eligible and then to screen for eligibility in an appropriate coverage option. The Hospital assists the patient in applying for the appropriate coverage options that are available or notify them of the availability of financial assistance through the Hospital's own internal financial assistance program.
Part VI, Line 4:The city of Lowell was founded in 1820 as a planned industrial community along the banks of the Merrimack River whose economy was based on textile manufacturing. By the 1850's, it had become the largest industrial center in the United States and the second largest city in New England. Much of the population growth in Lowell was attributable to immigration, which new residents coming from many parts of Europe and French-speaking Canada, creating an ethnically diverse community. During this period, Lowell served as a regional economic engine, providing goods and services to the surrounding communities, which retained a largely agricultural economy into the early 1900's. By the 1920's, however, Lowell had gone into economic decline as the U.S. Textile industry moved south, and by the end of the 1950's all of the textile mills had closed. In the 1970's, Wang Laboratories located its headquarters in the city and spurred a temporary economic revival, which collapsed when the company filed for bankruptcy in 1992. While the urban core has been redeveloped as a residential community, with former textile mills being rehabilitated as condominiums and apartments, Lowell lacks a strong industrial base. In a large measure, the emergence of a high technology and biomedical economic base in Eastern Massachusetts coincided with a decentralization of development and urban planning, with many new businesses locating outside city centers, along transportation corridors (e.g., routes 128 and 495). While Lowell still provides regional services not available in the smaller communities - healthcare, education and entertainment - much of the area's recent job growth has come from the high technology sector in nearby towns such as Billerica, Chelmsford, Tewksbury and Westford.In the 1980's, the city of Lowell was designated as a refugee and resettlement area for Cambodians in the wake of the atrocities committed by the Khmer Rouge Regime. Today, Lowell is home to the second largest Cambodian population within the U.S. In addition, many of the amenities that had served previous generations of Lowell immigrants, such as plentiful rental housing and a high geographic density of retail businesses and services continue to attract immigrants. In the 2000 census, more than one in five Lowell residents was foreign born. Contrasted with the predominantly northern and western European immigration during the city's manufacturing heyday, recent figures show that the foreign born in Lowell today have more diverse origins. In 2000, approximately half of all Lowell immigrants were Asian, nearly a quarter from Latin America, 16 percent from Europe (with many arriving from Portugal), and approximately six percent from Africa. With their arrival, these immigrants have also altered the service environment, with some healthcare facilities, notably the Lowell Community Health Center, adapting their services to accommodate individuals with idiosyncratic cultural and health needs, as well as providing services in an increasing number of languages.Immigrants arriving in Lowell today are greeted with a starkly different economic reality than those arriving during the industrial revolution. There are essentially no manufacturing jobs remaining in Lowell, and the majority of jobs in the new high technology sector require a college education. As a result, most jobs available to new immigrants without an advanced education are service jobs, many of which do not pay a living wage. Greater Lowell's demographic profile from the Massachusetts Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development, as of December 2016 indicates a 4.2% unemployment rate compared to 3.8% for the state of Massachusetts. However, it is worth noting that Lowell, Massachusetts, which represents approximately 39% of the population in Lowell General Hospital's service area, has 19% of the population living below poverty and an employment rate that has been at or above 8% for the past 12 months. The communities surrounding Lowell have attracted far fewer immigrants, with immigrants accounting for just three to seven percent of their populations. Of the suburban communities in the greater Lowell area, only Westford has a higher proportion foreign born (12.6%), but these immigrants are predominantly well educated and drawn to the town's high technology jobs.While Lowell is no longer the economic center that it once was, Lowell is still a cultural and institutional center for the region. It is home to the University of Massachusetts Lowell, Middlesex Community College and the Lowell National Historical Park, as well as Lowell General Hospital, superior and district courts, the Merrimack Repertory Theater, the Lowell Memorial Auditorium, the Tsongas Center and Lalacheur Stadium.In 2010, the Greater Lowell area, as defined herein, had a population of 275,000 residents, including an estimated 106,000 people in the city of Lowell alone. Thus, the city of Lowell itself accounts for less than 50 percent of the area's population. Four other communities - Billerica, Chelmsford, Dracut and Tewksbury - each have a population of nearly 30,000 or more. We also see that the City of Lowell differs from its suburban neighbors in important respects - a greater percentage non-Hispanic white, a greater percentage foreign born and a higher poverty rate.Lowell General Hospital's Primary Service Area (PSA) is comprised of approximately 300,000 residents from the following nine communities: Billerica, Chelmsford, Dracut, Dunstable, Lowell, Tewksbury, Tyngsborough, Westford, and Pelham, New Hampshire. The Hospital's Secondary Service Area (SSA) has a population of approximately 371,000 and includes the surrounding towns of Andover, Carlisle, Groton, Lawrence, Littleton, Methuen, North Andover, Pepperell, Wilmington, and Hollis, Hudson and Nashua, New Hampshire.
Part VI, Line 5:Lowell General Hospital participates in community building activities in many ways. To help improve the health status of our community we recognize the importance of access to care. To help meet this need, Lowell General Hospital evaluates the availability of primary care and specialists to our community members and actively recruits physicians to fill gaps. These gaps often include recruitment of multi-lingual physicians and those who have specialties in identified health needs for our community. Lowell General provides both financial and practice management support to these physicians. This enhances the communities' ability to access excellent primary and specialty care in a local setting.Lowell General Hospital has a close working relationship that includes financial support to Lowell Community Health Center (LCHC) which serves the low-income, medically underserved population, many of whom have no other access to healthcare services. The majority of patients served by LCHC have MassHealth, another 10% have private health insurance or HMO coverage, 7% have Medicare, and 20% are uninsured; and 95% live at or below the poverty level. Almost half of LCHC's patient population is under 18 years of age, and the majority of women are in their childbearing years. In 2007, 37% of patients were white/non-hispanic; 28% were Latino; 27% were Asian (primarily Cambodians) and 8% were African immigrants. Almost 60% of patients were best served in a language other than English. Some of the major services that LCHC provides are - Carino, which provides special care for patients with HIV/AIDS; promotoras programs, which are trained community health workers and volunteers who speak Spanish and/or Portuguese and go through an intensive training with LCHC staff on specific health topics to educate the community; LCHC teen coalition and adolescent health program, which covers everything from mental health and self-esteem issues among girls to educating and involving youth in substance abuse prevention and a journey to healing program for refugee children and children of refugees. Without Lowell General's financial support to LCHC's pension and worker's compensation program, many of these programs would not have adequate funding.The hospital dedicates extensive resources throughout the organization in its commitment to the community benefit program. The Board of Directors, in partnership with the senior management team and the Planning and Research Department, created a formal structure to support the hospital's outreach into the community, dedicating resources and investing in a three-pronged approach through the creation of three major initiatives: the Center for Community Health & Wellness, the Greater Lowell Health Alliance, and the LGH Ball for Community Health Initiatives, which is now known as the Circle Health Ball for Community Health Initiatives. Center for Community Health & WellnessThe Center for Community Health & Wellness (CCHW) was created in 2006 to meet the ever-changing healthcare needs throughout Greater Lowell. Programs and events are created by the staff to address unmet public health needs including, physical activity, nutrition, mental health, prevention, and overall health and wellness. Many of these programs target our community's underserved and vulnerable populations, including children, elderly, and immigrants.Today, our Center for Community Health and Wellness plans and supports more than 50 events annually, including health fairs and community screenings, and provides more than 15 support groups. In addition, we participate in 15-20 committees and coalitions in the Greater Lowell area, such as the Asthma Coalition of Greater Lowell, City Manager's Domestic Violence Task Force, the Substance Use and Prevention Task Force, Lowell's Early Childhood Advisory Council, and the Mental Health Task Force. Our leadership role in these initiatives enables us to increase community building and capacity, broadening the impact of our reach. Responding to the needs and feedback of our community, we also implemented a corporate wellness program, which provides outside corporations with screenings, innovative programs and health information to improve their employees' health and wellbeing.In 2008, the hospital's Childbirth Education Department moved under the leadership of the Center for Community Health & Wellness, centralizing all prevention and wellness programming for the community. Under the direction of CCHW, the Childbirth Education Department has grown in number of attendees and programs offered. Greater Lowell Health AllianceAs the Center for Community Health & Wellness thrived, our research indicated that the scope of the region's healthcare needs required resources and collaboration beyond those that could be provided by a single institution. This finding led Lowell General Hospital to create the Greater Lowell Health Alliance (GLHA), an independent non-profit alliance with a mission to sustain a strategic alliance of community organizations that improves the overall health and wellness of those living in the Greater Lowell Region. By raising awareness and providing resources for our health care providers, communities, schools and civic and business leaders, we empower them to make decisions and take actions that will lead to an improvement in the overall health of our communities.A major goal of the GLHA is to reduce duplication of efforts. Therefore, in 2008 GLHA merged with the Community Health Network Area (CHNA) 10, a coalition of public, non-profit and private sectors created by the Department of Public Health in 1992. The unification of the two organizations strengthened our ability to work with others to enrich the Greater Lowell community; network and share ideas with people of similar interest in building a healthier Greater Lowell community; gain more knowledge about health-related issues and topics; and increase cultural competency of the services provided to the community. Since 2006, GLHA has grown from 13 participating organizations to more than 100, and from one task force (healthy weight) to five (substance use & prevention, mental health, cultural competence, healthy eating & living, and maternal child health). Lowell General Hospital continues to provide leadership and financial support to the GLHA.Circle Health Ball for Community Health InitiativesWith the growing need for community health programs and support came the need for additional funding to support them. Lowell General Hospital developed the annual "LGH Ball for Community Health Initiatives", now known as the Circle Health Ball, to raise awareness and funds for community outreach and education. In the past seven years, Lowell General Hospital has raised more than $600,000 for community initiatives, including the Healthy Babies Initiative, a breastfeeding education and support programs for new moms; the "Beds for Kids" program of The Lowell Wish Project, which provides new beds and bedding for at-risk children in the city; a public service campaign to promote mental health awareness and resources; the "Heart and Soles" mall walking program; an outdoor river path walking program; a children's literacy program; a smoking prevention program in the Lowell Public Schools; and a comprehensive health risk assessment program.IN 2017, THE CIRCLE HEALTH BALL RAISED MORE THAN $97,000 TO HELP FUND VITAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS PROGRAMS WHICH BENEFIT RESIDENTS OF THE GREATER LOWELL COMMUNITY. FIVE LOCAL NON-PROFITS WERE AWARDED COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVE GRANTS FOR 2017. THEY WERE THE LOWELL TRANSITIONAL LIVING CENTER, PHEASANT LANE WALKING POGRAM, UNITED TEAM EQUALITY CENTER, HABITAT FOR HUMANITY AND THE INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF BOSTON.Lowell General Hospital is dedicated to the promotion of the health in the community by providing educational opportunities for local senior centers, hosting quarterly Blood Drives in partnership with the American Red Cross, running annual Food Drives to benefit the local Food Banks, and participating in countless health fairs where we provide valuable health promotion information and often provide free health screenings.
Part VI, Line 6:Members and officers of Lowell General Hospital are actively serving on the Boards of many local community area agencies and as heads of the Greater Lowell Health Alliance. In 2012, Lowell General Hospital officially became a member of Circle Health. Circle Health is a progressive collaboration of physicians, hospitals, other health providers, and other community-based organizations with a shared vision for empowering people and communities to be the healthiest they can be.
