FACILITY 1, GEISINGER WYOMING VALLEY MEDICAL - PART V, LINE 5	THE 2024 CHNA WAS CONDUCTED FROM JANUARY TO DECEMBER 2023 AND INCLUDED QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE RESEARCH METHODS TO DETERMINE HEALTH TRENDS AND DISPARITIES IN CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA. OUR PROCESS WAS IN LINE WITH IRS TAX CODE 501(R) REQUIREMENTS TO CONDUCT A CHNA EVERY THREE YEARS AS SET FORTH BY THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT (PPACA). THROUGH A COMPREHENSIVE VIEW OF STATISTICAL HEALTH INDICATORS AND COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDER FEEDBACK, A PROFILE OF PRIORITY AREAS WAS DETERMINED. THE FINDINGS WILL GUIDE HEALTHCARE SERVICES AND HEALTH IMPROVEMENT EFFORTS, AS WELL AS SERVE AS A COMMUNITY RESOURCE FOR GRANTMAKING, ADVOCACY, AND TO SUPPORT THE MANY PROGRAMS PROVIDED BY HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICE PARTNERS. SECONDARY DATA ANALYSIS SECONDARY DATA, INCLUDING DEMOGRAPHIC, SOCIOECONOMIC, AND PUBLIC HEALTH INDICATORS, WERE ANALYZED FOR SERVICE AREA COUNTIES TO MEASURE KEY DATA TRENDS AND PRIORITY HEALTH ISSUES AND TO ASSESS EMERGING HEALTH NEEDS. DATA WERE COMPARED TO STATE AND NATIONAL BENCHMARKS AND HEALTHY PEOPLE 2030 (HP2030) GOALS, AS AVAILABLE, TO ASSESS AREAS OF STRENGTH AND OPPORTUNITY. HEALTHY PEOPLE 2030 IS A NATIONAL INITIATIVE ESTABLISHING 10-YEAR GOALS FOR IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF ALL AMERICANS. ALL REPORTED DEMOGRAPHIC AND SOCIOECONOMIC DATA WERE PROVIDED BY THE US CENSUS BUREAU, AMERICAN COMMUNITY SURVEY, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. PUBLIC HEALTH DATA WERE COMPILED FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES LIKE THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC), AMONG OTHERS. PRIMARY RESEARCH AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT WAS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE 2024 CHNA. INPUT WAS SOLICITED AND RECEIVED FROM INDIVIDUALS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY, AS WELL AS UNDERSERVED, LOW-INCOME, AND MINORITY POPULATIONS. THESE INDIVIDUALS PROVIDED PERSPECTIVES ON HEALTH NEEDS, EXISTING RESOURCES TO MEET THOSE NEEDS, AND SERVICE DELIVERY GAPS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO HEALTH DISPARITIES AND INEQUITIES. PRIMARY RESEARCH AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT STUDY METHODS INCLUDED: -AN ONLINE KEY STAKEHOLDER SURVEY COMPLETED BY 169 INDIVIDUALS SERVING THE NORTHEAST REGION, WHO REPRESENT HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, SOCIAL SERVICES PROFESSIONALS, EDUCATORS, FAITH-BASED LEADERS, AND COMMUNITY LEADERS, AMONG OTHERS; -REGIONAL COMMUNITY FORUM BRINGING TOGETHER 32 RESIDENTS AND DIVERSE COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES TO REVIEW CHNA FINDINGS AND COLLECTIVELY DEFINE CHALLENGES AND CO-DEVELOP MEANINGFUL STRATEGIES FOR HEALTH IMPROVEMENT; AND -CONVERSATIONS WITH HEALTH SYSTEM LEADERS TO ALIGN COMMUNITY HEALTH PLANNING WITH POPULATION HEALTH MANAGEMENT AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIES.
FACILITY 1, GEISINGER WYOMING VALLEY MEDICAL - PART V, LINE 6A	THE 2024 CHNA WAS CONDUCTED COLLABORATIVELY BY GEISINGER(1), ALLIED SERVICES(2), AND EVANGELICAL COMMUNITY HOSPITAL. THE THREE HEALTH SYSTEMS HAVE PARTNERED SINCE 2012 TO CREATE A COLLECTIVE CHNA FOR THEIR OVERLAPPING SERVICE AREAS SPANNING CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA. COLLABORATION IN THIS WAY CONSERVES VITAL COMMUNITY RESOURCES WHILE FOSTERING A PLATFORM FOR COLLECTIVE IMPACT THAT ALIGNS COMMUNITY EFFORTS TOWARD A COMMON GOAL OR ACTION. THE CHNA FOCUSED ON THE PRIMARY SERVICE COUNTY(IES) OF EACH PARTICIPATING HOSPITAL TO IDENTIFY HEALTH TRENDS AND UNIQUE DISPARITIES WITHIN THESE COMMUNITIES. HOSPITALS WITH OVERLAPPING SERVICE AREAS WERE GROUPED INTO REGIONS FOR COMPARISONS OF HEALTH AND SOCIOECONOMIC DATA. COMMON PRIORITIES WERE DETERMINED TO ADDRESS WIDESPREAD HEALTH NEEDS. SPECIFIC STRATEGIES WERE OUTLINED IN EACH HOSPITAL'S IMPLEMENTATION PLAN TO GUIDE LOCAL EFFORTS AND COLLABORATION WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS. (1) GEISINGER INCLUDES: GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER (INCLUDING GEISINGER-SHAMOKIN AREA COMMUNITY HOSPITAL), GEISINGER ENCOMPASS HEALTH LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY (DBA GEISINGER ENCOMPASS HEALTH REHABILITATION HOSPITAL), GEISINGER WYOMING VALLEY MEDICAL CENTER (INCLUDES GEISINGER SOUTH WILKES-BARRE), GEISINGER-BLOOMSBURG HOSPITAL, COMMUNITY MEDICAL CENTER (DBA GEISINGER COMMUNITY MEDICAL CENTER), GEISINGER JERSEY SHORE HOSPITAL, GEISINGER-LEWISTOWN HOSPITAL, AND GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER MUNCY.

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDesc	ExplanationExplanationTxt
PART I, LINE 3C - OTHER INCOME BASED CRITERIA FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE	SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION FOR ELIGIBILITY MAY CONSIST OF INCOME AND ASSET INFORMATION, INCLUSIVE BUT NOT LIMITED TO: FEDERAL INCOME TAX FORM 1040 FROM THE PRIOR YEAR, PAY STUB COPIES, WRITTEN VERIFICATION OF ANY OTHER INCOME RECEIVED (I.E. SOCIAL SECURITY, ADC, CHILD SUPPORT, ALIMONY, ETC.), CURRENT CREDIT REPORTS AND ASSET VERIFICATION. THE HOSPITAL MAY ALSO UTILIZE INDUSTRY TESTED EXTERNAL ANALYTICAL TOOLS TO QUALIFY PATIENTS FOR UNCOMPENSATED CARE (AKA PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY). GEISINGER PROVIDERS, WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION, CARE FOR ALL EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITIONS TO INDIVIDUALS REGARDLESS OF THEIR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY OR ABILITY TO PAY. IT IS THE POLICY OF GEISINGER HOSPITAL FACILITIES TO COMPLY WITH THE STANDARDS OF THE FEDERAL EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENT AND ACTIVE LABOR TRANSPORT ACT OF 1986 ("EMTLA") AND REGULATIONS IN PROVIDING MEDICAL SCREENING EXAMINATION AND SUCH FURTHER TREATMENT AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO STABILIZE AN EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITION FOR ANY INDIVIDUAL PRESENTING TO THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT SEEKING TREATMENT.
PART I, LINE 7G - SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES EXPLANATION	THERE ARE NO PHYSICIAN CLINICAL SERVICES INCLUDED IN SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES.
PART I, LINE 7 - COSTING METHODOLOGY EXPLANATION	A COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM WAS USED TO DETERMINE THE COSTS REPORTED ON LINE 7 AND ADDRESSED PATIENT SEGMENTS BY PAYOR (E.G. MEDICARE, MEDICAID, COMMERCIAL PAYERS, SELF-PAY, ETC.). A COST TO CHARGE RATIO, CALCULATED PURSUANT TO WORKSHEET 2 OF THE FORM 990 INSTRUCTIONS, WAS USED TO CALCULATE THE COST OF CHARITY CARE.
PART III, LINE 4 - BAD DEBT EXEPNSE FOOTNOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	GEISINGER RECORDS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE BASED ON STANDARD CHARGES FOR SERVICES PROVIDED, EXPLICIT CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS PROVIDED TO THIRD-PARTY PAYORS AND IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS PROVIDED TO PATIENTS AS REDUCTIONS FROM ESTABLISHED BILLING RATES. GEISINGER DETERMINES ITS ESTIMATES OF EXPLICIT AND IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS BASED ON HISTORICAL DATA WHICH CONSIDERS EXPERIENCE, MARKET CONDITIONS, AND OTHER FACTORS. EXPLICIT AND IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS TO PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE ARE RECORDED AT THE TIME THE PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS ARE SATISFIED. SUBSTANTIALLY ALL CHANGES TO THESE CONCESSIONS, AS A RESULT OF SUBSEQUENT REASSESSMENT, ARE RECOGNIZED IN THE PERIOD THE CHANGE IS IDENTIFIED AS ADJUSTMENTS TO PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. SUBSEQUENT CHANGES THAT ARE DETERMINED TO BE A RESULT OF AN ADVERSE CHANGE IN THE PATIENT'S OR PAYOR'S ABILITY TO PAY AND ARE MATERIAL ARE RECORDED AS BAD DEBT EXPENSE. NO BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS RECORDED FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 RELATED TO PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE.
PART III, LINE 8 - MEDICARE EXPLANATION	MEDICARE COSTS WERE DERIVED FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORT AND THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND SHOULD BE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. AS OUTLINED MORE FULLY BELOW, THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT THESE SERVICES AND RELATED COSTS PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AND ARE RENDERED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITABLE TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSES AND MISSION IN PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUALS IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY AND IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD PROMULGATED BY THE IRS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IS THE CURRENT STANDARD FOR A TAX-EXEMPT AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC") 501(C)(3). SATISFYING THE "COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD," AS ARTICULATED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (IRS) IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, IS CURRENTLY REQUIRED FOR A HOSPITAL TO BE RECOGNIZED AS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (IRC) 501(C)(3). THIS RULING REMOVED THE PREVIOUS REQUIREMENT OF REVENUE RULING 56-185, KNOWN AS THE "CHARITY CARE STANDARD," THAT IN ORDER TO BE A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION, A HOSPITAL HAD TO PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY FOR THEIR CARE. THIS EARLIER RULING EMPHASIZED THAT A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE DID NOT MEAN THAT A HOSPITAL WAS CHARITABLE SINCE THAT LEVEL COULD REFLECT THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE SUCH CARE. REVENUE RULING 56-185 ALSO NOTED THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED COMMUNITY HOSPITALS WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY AS CHARITABLE BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY AND A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE WOULD NOT IMPACT A HOSPITAL'S CHARITABLE STATUS IF IT WAS DUE TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY'S LACK OF CHARITABLE DEMANDS. AS DEVELOPED IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, UNDER THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD, HOSPITALS WERE JUDGED ON WHETHER THEY PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF A BROAD CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY. THIS RULING INVOLVED A HOSPITAL THAT ONLY ADMITTED THOSE WHO COULD PAY FOR THE SERVICES EITHER BY THEMSELVES, THROUGH PRIVATE INSURANCE OR PUBLIC PROGRAMS SUCH AS MEDICARE. IN ADDITION, THE HOSPITAL OPERATED A FULL-TIME EMERGENCY ROOM THAT WAS OPEN TO EVERYONE. THE IRS RULED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS CHARITABLE BECAUSE IT PROMOTED THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE IN ITS COMMUNITY. THE IRS REASONED THAT BECAUSE THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH WAS A CHARITABLE PURPOSE ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY, IT FELL WITHIN THE "GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE" OF THE TERM CHARITABLE, AS REQUIRED BY TREASURY REGULATION SECTION 1.501(C)(3)-1(D)(2). THE IRS RULED THAT THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH, LIKE RELIEF OF POVERTY AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RELIGION, IS ONE OF THE PURPOSES OF THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY THAT IS DEEMED BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE EVEN THOUGH THE CLASS OF BENEFICIARIES ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A DIRECT BENEFIT FROM ITS ACTIVITIES DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS INDIGENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDED THAT THE CLASS IS NOT SO SMALL THAT ITS RELIEF IS NOT OF BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE IRS CONCLUDED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS "PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF A CLASS OF PERSONS THAT IS BROAD ENOUGH TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY" BECAUSE ITS EMERGENCY ROOM WAS OPEN TO ALL AND IT PROVIDED CARE TO THOSE WHO COULD PAY, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT. OTHER FACTORS THAT DEMONSTRATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT INCLUDED: SURPLUS FUNDS WERE USED TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, EXPAND FACILITIES AND ADVANCE MEDICAL TRAINING, EDUCATION AND RESEARCH; AND IT WAS CONTROLLED BY A BOARD OF DIRECTORS THAT CONSISTED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ("AHA") BELIEVES THE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALLS) AND BAD DEBT SHOULD BE REPORTED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7. THIS ORGANIZATION AGREES WITH THE AHA'S LETTER TO THE IRS DATED AUGUST 21, 2007 RESPONDING TO A DRAFT OF THE NEW FORM 990 AND SCHEDULE H, THE AHA ARGUED THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALLS) IS COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: -PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY AND SERVING MEDICARE PATIENTS REMAINS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD. -MEDICARE, LIKE MEDICAID, DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE. RECENTLY, MEDICARE REIMBURSES ONLY 92 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR HOSPITALS SPEND TO CARE FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS. THE MEDICARE PAYMENT ADVISORY COMMISSION ("MEDPAC") IN ITS MARCH 2007 REPORT TO CONGRESS CAUTIONED THAT UNDERPAYMENT WILL GET EVEN WORSE, WITH MARGINS REACHING A 10 YEAR LOW AT NEGATIVE 5.4 PERCENT. -MANY MEDICARE PATIENTS, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 46% OF MEDICARE SPENDING IS FOR BENEFICIARIES WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MANY ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID, SO CALLED ELIGIBLES". PENNSYLVANIA REQUIRES NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS TO PROVIDE A MINIMUM LEVEL OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT TO RETAIN EXEMPTION FROM STATE AND LOCAL TAXES. ACCORDING TO STATE GUIDANCE AND CASE LAW, THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF MEDICARE AND BAD DEBT IS CONSIDERED TO BE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR STATE TAX EXEMPTION PURPOSES. PART III, LINE 6 ONLY INCLUDES THOSE COSTS THAT ARE PERMITTED TO BE REPORTED IN THE HOSPITAL'S MEDICARE COST REPORT THAT IS REQUIRED TO BE FILED WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. THE HOSPITAL CONSIDERS THE TOTAL MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) OF $90,083,834 SHOULD BE REPORTED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7. ALONG WITH PROVIDING CARE TO MEDICAID PATIENTS AND PROVIDING FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE TO OTHER LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, THE IRS COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD INCLUDES THE PROVISION OF CARE TO THE ELDERLY AND MEDICARE PATIENTS. LIKE MEDICAID, MEDICARE DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF PROVIDING CARE TO THESE PATIENTS, FORCING THE HOSPITAL TO USE OTHER FUNDS TO COVER THE SHORTFALL. MEDICARE SHORTFALLS MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE ELDERLY IN OUR COMMUNITIES. THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE REGARDLESS OF THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL AND IS THEREBY PROVIDING ACCESS TO MEDICAL SERVICES FOR THE ELDERLY AND RELIEVING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE BURDEN OF PAYING THE FULL COST FOR PROVIDING CARE TO MEDICARE PATIENTS. ABSENT THE MEDICARE PROGRAM, IT IS LIKELY THAT MANY MEDICARE PATIENTS WOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE OR OTHER NEED-BASED GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS. THE AMOUNT EXPENDED TO COVER THE SHORTFALL IS MONEY NOT AVAILABLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT NEEDS.
PART III, LINE 9B - COLLECTION PRACTICES EXPLANATION	THE HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY AND THE HOSPITAL'S COLLECTION ACTIONS ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED TO ALL PATIENTS. IT IS THE HOSPITAL'S POLICY TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND COUNSELING TO PATIENTS WITH LIMITED FINANCIAL MEANS. A PATIENT MAY BECOME ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT ANY TIME DURING TREATMENT OR DURING THE CONTINUUM OF THE FINANCIAL/BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCESS. IN ANY STAGE OF THE BILLING PROCESS, COLLECTION ACTIONS ARE NOT PURSUED WHENEVER A PATIENT APPLIES AND IS BEING EVALUATED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL THE HOSPITAL FREEZE OR ATTACH BANK ACCOUNTS OF A PATIENT, ENFORCE LIENS, ACTIVELY PURSUE ASSETS FROM A PRIOR JUDGMENT OR GARNISH THE WAGES OF A PATIENT AND/OR FAMILY MEMBER BEFORE DETERMINING IF THE PATIENT IS ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. GEISINGER MANAGEMENT HAS DEVELOPED POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL COLLECTION PRACTICES THAT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE EXTENT TO WHICH THE PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, A PATIENT'S GOOD FAITH EFFORT TO APPLY FOR GOVERNMENTAL PROGRAMS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FROM GEISINGER AND A PATIENT'S GOOD FAITH EFFORT TO COMPLY WITH HIS OR HER PAYMENT AGREEMENTS. BILLING AND COLLECTION POLICY: THE BILLING AND COLLECTION POLICY IS ADMINISTERED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MISSION AND VALUES OF THE HOSPITAL AS WELL AS FEDERAL AND STATE LAW. THE POLICY IS DESIGNED TO PROMOTE APPROPRIATE ACCESS TO MEDICAL CARE FOR ALL PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY WHILE MAINTAINING GEISINGER'S FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY TO MAXIMIZE REIMBURSEMENT AND MINIMIZE BAD DEBT. THE ORGANIZATION'S BILLING AND COLLECTION POLICY IS INTENDED TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT EACH INDIVIDUAL'S ABILITY TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE COST OF HIS OR HER CARE. THE ORGANIZATION MAKES SURE THAT PATIENTS ARE ASSISTED IN OBTAINING HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE FROM PRIVATELY AND PUBLICLY FUNDED SOURCES, WHENEVER POSSIBLE. ALL BUSINESS OFFICE CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPRESENTATIVES ARE EDUCATED ON ALL ASPECTS OF THE BILLING AND COLLECTION POLICY AND ARE EXPECTED TO ADMINISTER THE POLICY ON A REGULAR AND CONSISTENT BASIS. BUSINESS OFFICE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES ARE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO TREAT ALL PATIENTS WITH COURTESY, RESPECT, CONFIDENTIALITY AND CULTURAL SENSITIVITY. THE BILLING AND COLLECTION POLICY IS ADMINISTERED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN INTERNAL ADMINISTRATIVE POLICIES. THE GEISINGER EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER AND VICE PRESIDENT, CHIEF REVENUE OFFICER HAVE OVERALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE BILLING AND COLLECTION ACTIVITIES OF THE HOSPITAL. THE BUSINESS OFFICE CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT STAFF IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAY-TO-DAY ENFORCEMENT OF APPROVED POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. GEISINGER MAY OFFER EXTENDED PAYMENT PLANS TO PATIENTS WHO ARE COOPERATING IN GOOD FAITH TO RESOLVE THEIR HOSPITAL BILLS. EMERGENCY & MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES: GEISINGER DOES NOT ENGAGE IN ANY ACTIONS THAT DISCOURAGE INDIVIDUALS FROM SEEKING EMERGENCY MEDICAL CARE. THE ORGANIZATION WILL NEVER DEMAND THAT AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENT PAY BEFORE RECEIVING TREATMENT FOR EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITIONS. ADDITIONALLY, GEISINGER DOES NOT PERMIT DEBT COLLECTION ACTIVITIES IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT OR OTHER AREAS WHERE SUCH ACTIVITIES COULD INTERFERE WITH THE PROVISION OF EMERGENCY CARE ON A NONDISCRIMINATORY BASIS. ALL MEDICALLY NECESSARY HOSPITAL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT CONSIDERATION OF ABILITY TO PAY AND ARE NOT DELAYED PENDING APPLICATION OR APPROVAL OF MEDICAL ASSISTANCE OR THE GEISINGER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. ADVANCE PAYMENT IS NOT REQUIRED FOR ANY MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES. COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 501(R)(6): GEISINGER DOES NOT ENGAGE IN ANY EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS ("ECAS") AS DEFINED BY INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 501(R)(6) PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD. THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD IS DEFINED AS A 120-DAY PERIOD OR GREATER, WHICH BEGINS ON THE DATE OF THE 1ST POST-DISCHARGE BILLING STATEMENT, IN WHICH NO ECAS ARE INITIATED AGAINST THE PATIENT. SUBSEQUENT TO THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD GEISINGER, OR ANY THIRD PARTIES ACTING ON ITS BEHALF, MAY INITIATE THE FOLLOWING ECAS AGAINST A PATIENT FOR AN UNPAID BALANCE IF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION HAS NOT BEEN MADE OR IF AN INDIVIDUAL IS INELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. GEISINGER MAY AUTHORIZE THIRD PARTIES TO REPORT ADVERSE INFORMATION ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL TO CONSUMER CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES OR CREDIT BUREAUS ON DELINQUENT PATIENT ACCOUNTS AFTER THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD. THE ORGANIZATION ENSURES REASONABLE EFFORTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO DETERMINE WHETHER AN INDIVIDUAL IS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND ENSURES THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS ARE TAKEN AT LEAST 30 DAYS PRIOR TO INITIATING ANY ECA: 1) THE PATIENT IS PROVIDED WITH WRITTEN NOTICE WHICH: INDICATES THAT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE FOR ELIGIBLE PATIENTS; IDENTIFIES THE ECA(S) THAT GEISINGER INTENDS TO INITIATE TO OBTAIN PAYMENT FOR THE CARE; AND STATES A DEADLINE AFTER WHICH SUCH ECAS MAY BE INITIATED. 2) THE PATIENT IS PROVIDED WITH A COPY OF THE PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY; AND 3) REASONABLE EFFORTS ARE MADE TO ORALLY NOTIFY THE PATIENT ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND HOW THE INDIVIDUAL MAY OBTAIN ASSISTANCE WITH THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION PROCESS. GEISINGER PROCESSES ALL APPLICATIONS FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE SUBMITTED DURING THE APPLICATION PERIOD. THE APPLICATION PERIOD BEGINS ON THE DATE THE CARE IS PROVIDED AND ENDS ON THE 240TH DAY AFTER THE DATE OF THE FIRST POST-DISCHARGE BILLING STATEMENT.
PART VI, LINE 2 - NEEDS ASSESSMENT	THE 2024 CHNA WAS CONDUCTED COLLABORATIVELY BY GEISINGER, ALLIED SERVICES, AND EVANGELICAL COMMUNITY HOSPITAL. THE THREE HEALTH SYSTEMS HAVE PARTNERED SINCE 2012 TO CREATE A COLLECTIVE CHNA FOR THEIR OVERLAPPING SERVICE AREAS SPANNING CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA. COLLABORATION IN THIS WAY CONSERVES VITAL COMMUNITY RESOURCES WHILE FOSTERING A PLATFORM FOR COLLECTIVE IMPACT THAT ALIGNS COMMUNITY EFFORTS TOWARD A COMMON GOAL OR ACTION. FROM THIS COLLABORATION, ONGOING RELATIONSHIPS WITH VARIOUS COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED. THESE STAKEHOLDER RELATIONSHIPS ARE AN INVALUABLE RESOURCE TO THE HOSPITAL'S IN ITS ONGOING MONITORING OF COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AND OPPORTUNITIES AS TIME PASSES AS WELL AS THOSE IDENTIFIED IN THE TRIENNIAL CHNA. REGIONALLY, GEISINGER CROSS-FUCTIONAL TEAMS ARE ACCOUNTABLE FOR REVIEW OF THE OPERATIONAL HEALTH INITIATIVES IN SUPPORT OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLANS. THESE TEAMS MONITOR AND TRACK PROGRESS IN MEETING THE INITIATIVES AND RESPOND TO ANY NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEETING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IN FURTHERANCE OF GEISINGER'S CHARITABLE MISSION.
PART VI, LINE 3 - PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE	GEISINGER IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING THE HIGHEST QUALITY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO OUR COMMUNITY. GEISINGER IS COMMITTED TO A SERVICE EXCELLENCE PHILOSOPHY THAT STRIVES TO MEET OR EXCEED PATIENT EXPECTATIONS. ALL PATIENTS WILL RECEIVE A UNIFORM STANDARD OF CARE THROUGHOUT ALL GEISINGER FACILITIES, REGARDLESS OF SOCIAL, CULTURAL, FINANCIAL, RELIGIOUS, RACIAL, GENDER OR SEXUAL ORIENTATION. GEISINGER STRIVES TO ENSURE THAT ALL PATIENTS RECEIVE ESSENTIAL EMERGENCY AND OTHER MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTH SERVICES REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. FOR URGENT AND EMERGENT SERVICES, PATIENTS ARE PROVIDED CARE REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. IN THE EVENT A PATIENT HAS AN EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITION; TREATMENT IS NOT DELAYED TO PERMIT AN INQUIRY REGARDING A PATIENT'S METHOD OF PAYMENT OR INSURANCE STATUS. FOR OTHER THAN URGENT AND EMERGENT SERVICES, THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES UNCOMPENSATED CARE, FREE OF CHARGE, OR ON A 100% DISCOUNTED BASIS, TO THOSE PATIENTS WHO DEMONSTRATE AN INABILITY TO PAY. DEPENDING UPON FAMILY SIZE AND INCOME, FREE OR 100% DISCOUNTED SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE TO A PATIENT WITH FAMILY INCOME OF 300% OR LESS OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES. IT IS THE HOSPITAL'S POLICY TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND FINANCIAL COUNSELING TO PATIENTS OF LIMITED MEANS.

PART VI, LINE 4 - COMMUNITY INFORMATION	THE HOSPITAL IS LOCATED WITHIN THE NORTHEAST REGION OF PENNSYLVANIA. THE NORTHEAST REGION IS COMPRISED OF FIVE PENNSYLVANIA COUNTIES: LACKAWANNA, LUZERNE, SUSQUEHANNA, WAYNE, AND WYOMING. LACKAWANNA AND LUZERNE COUNTIES ARE POPULATION CENTERS FOR THE REGION, AND HOME TO CITIES INCLUDING SCRANTON, WILKES-BARRE, AND HAZLETON. SUSQUEHANNA, WAYNE, AND WYOMING COUNTIES ARE LARGELY RURAL COMMUNITIES WITH TOTAL POPULATIONS OF APPROXIMATELY 25,000 TO 50,000 PEOPLE. POPULATION GROWTH OVER THE PAST DECADE WAS STAGNANT IN LACKAWANNA AND LUZERNE COUNTIES AND DECLINED IN RURAL COUNTIES. SUSQUEHANNA COUNTY SAW THE LARGEST POPULATION DECLINE OF -10.3% FROM 2010 TO 2021. IN CONTRAST, THE REGION SAW SIGNIFICANT GROWTH IN OLDER ADULTS, PARTICULARLY IN RURAL COUNTIES. FROM 2010 TO 2021, SUSQUEHANNA, WAYNE, AND WYOMING COUNTIES SAW 21%-29.5% GROWTH IN ADULTS AGED 65 OR OLDER. OUR COMMUNITY AND RESIDENTS CONSISTENT WITH PENNSYLVANIA OVERALL, THE NORTHEAST REGION IS AGING, WITH A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF OLDER ADULTS FROM 2010 TO 2021 IN ALL COUNTIES. OUTSIDE OF LACKAWANNA AND LUZERNE COUNTIES, THE YOUTH POPULATION DECLINED BY APPROXIMATELY 20% FROM 2010 TO 2021. LACKAWANNA AND LUZERNE WERE THE ONLY COUNTIES TO SEE POPULATION GROWTH, ALTHOUGH GROWTH WAS MODEST AT AN ESTIMATED 1-2%. SUSQUEHANNA AND WAYNE ARE AMONG THE OLDEST COUNTIES IN THE REGION; APPROXIMATELY ONE-QUARTER OF RESIDENTS ARE AGED 65 OR OLDER AND MEDIAN AGES ARE NEARLY EIGHT YEARS OLDER THAN THE STATE MEDIAN. IN THE EASTERN PORTION OF WAYNE COUNTY, AS MANY AS 40.5% OF RESIDENTS IN ZIP CODE 18415, DAMASCUS AND 55.3% IN ZIP CODE 18469, TYLER HILL ARE AGED 65 OR OLDER. IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT OUTSIDE OF THE SCRANTON AND WILKES-BARRE METROS, 20% OR MORE OF RESIDENTS OF NEARLY ALL ZIP CODES ARE AGED 65 OR OLDER. NORTHEAST REGION COUNTIES ARE MAJORITY WHITE COMMUNITIES WITH LESS RACIAL DIVERSITY THAN STATE AND NATIONAL BENCHMARKS. LUZERNE COUNTY BENEFITS FROM THE MOST POPULATION DIVERSITY WITH 7% OF RESIDENTS IDENTIFYING WITH A RACE OTHER THAN WHITE AND 14% IDENTIFYING AS LATINX (ANY RACE). CONSISTENT WITH STATE AND NATIONAL TRENDS, POPULATION DIVERSITY IS INCREASING WITHIN THE REGION. IN LACKAWANNA AND LUZERNE COUNTIES, FROM 2010 TO 2021, THE WHITE POPULATION AS A PROPORTION OF THE TOTAL POPULATION DECLINED 6-10 PERCENTAGE POINTS. WHEN ANALYZED BY ZIP CODE, POCKETS OF HIGH POVERTY ARE LARGELY SEEN WITHIN THE HAZLETON, SCRANTON, AND WILKES-BARRE METROS. CHILDREN ARE HISTORICALLY DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTED BY POVERTY, AND WITHIN THESE SAME AREAS, APPROXIMATELY ONE-THIRD OF CHILDREN LIVE IN POVERTY. IT IS ALSO WORTH NOTING NEWFOUNDLAND, WHERE 30.3% OF ALL RESIDENTS AND 45.1% OF CHILDREN LIVE IN POVERTY, AND BEACH LAKE, WHERE 13.6% OF ALL RESIDENTS LIVE IN POVERTY BUT 30.8% CHILDREN LIVE IN POVERTY. POVERTY IS NOT EXPERIENCED BY EVERY COMMUNITY EQUALLY AND CONTRIBUTES TO FURTHER INEQUALITIES SUCH AS ACCESS TO SAFE LIVING AND WORKING CONDITIONS, HEALTH SERVICES, AND BASIC NEEDS, AMONG OTHER THINGS. IN LACKAWANNA AND LUZERNE COUNTIES, BLACK AND MULTIRACIAL RESIDENTS MAKE UP 5% OR LESS OF THE POPULATION, EACH, BUT ONE-QUARTER TO ONE-THIRD OF THESE POPULATION GROUPS EXPERIENCE POVERTY, COMPARED WITH ONLY 12% OF THE MAJORITY-WHITE POPULATION. SIMILAR DISPARITIES EXIST FOR INDIVIDUALS IDENTIFYING AS LATINX. WHILE THE REGION HAS FEW RESIDENTS WHO IDENTIFY AS NON-WHITE OR NON-HISPANIC, THEY DO EXIST, AND THEIR LACK OF VISIBILITY MAY CONTRIBUTE TO THESE DISPARATE EXPERIENCES. EDUCATION HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION IS ONE OF THE STRONGEST PREDICTORS OF LONGEVITY AND ECONOMIC STABILITY. WITHIN NORTHEAST REGION COMMUNITIES, APPROXIMATELY 90% OF ADULTS GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL, A SIMILAR PROPORTION AS THE STATE OVERALL. ADULTS ARE GENERALLY LESS LIKELY TO PURSUE OR ATTAIN HIGHER EDUCATION, SUCH AS A BACHELOR'S OR GRADUATE DEGREE. OUR HOMES AND WHERE WE LIVE WHERE YOU LIVE IMPACTS THE CHOICES AVAILABLE TO YOU. THESE CHOICES IMPACT YOUR INCOME, WELLNESS, AND ULTIMATELY HOW LONG YOU LIVE. WHEN CONSIDERED WITH LIVED EXPERIENCES SUCH AS ACCESS TO QUALITY SERVICES LIKE EDUCATION AND TRANSPORTATION, PLACE-BASED CHOICES MAY ALSO INFORM PERCEPTION OF OPPORTUNITIES. FOR NEIGHBORHOODS, A HIGHER PROPORTION OF HOMEOWNERSHIP MEANS GREATER NEIGHBORHOOD STABILITY. GREATER NEIGHBORHOOD STABILITY MEANS MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR INVESTMENT IN INFRASTRUCTURE, SUCH AS SCHOOLS, ROADS, PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, AND GREEN SPACES, KEY ELEMENTS FOR HEALTHY LIVING. FOR FAMILIES, HOMEOWNERSHIP IS TYPICALLY THEIR LARGEST ASSET. THE SECURITY OF KNOWING ONE HAS A HOME CAN ALSO REDUCE CHRONIC STRESS, A SIGNIFICANT FACTOR IN DEVELOPING CHRONIC DISEASE. IN GENERAL, NORTHEAST REGION RESIDENTS ARE JUST AS LIKELY OR MORE LIKELY TO OWN THEIR HOME WHEN COMPARED TO STATE AND NATIONAL BENCHMARKS. HOMEOWNERSHIP INCREASES IN MORE RURAL COMMUNITIES. HOUSING IS OFTEN THE LARGEST SINGLE MONTHLY EXPENSE FOR HOUSEHOLDS AND SHOULD REPRESENT NO MORE THAN 30% OF A HOUSEHOLD'S MONTHLY INCOME. WHEN HOUSEHOLDS SPEND MORE THAN 30% OF THEIR INCOME ON HOUSING, THEY ARE CONSIDERED HOUSING COST BURDENED AND GENERALLY HAVE FEWER RESOURCES FOR OTHER NECESSITIES LIKE FOOD, TRANSPORTATION, AND CHILDCARE. RENTAL COSTS HAVE BALLOONED ACROSS THE COUNTRY SINCE COVID-19, LEAVING MANY TO STRUGGLE TO CONTINUE TO AFFORD THEIR CURRENT RENT, WHILE ALSO HAVING LESS AND LESS OPPORTUNITY TO SAVE MONEY TO MAKE FUTURE HOMEOWNERSHIP POSSIBLE. THE NORTHEAST REGION IS NO EXCEPTION TO THESE TRENDS. WAYNE AND WYOMING COUNTIES HAVE THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF HOMEOWNERS, BUT WAYNE COUNTY HAS THE MOST COST-BURDENED RESIDENTS, ESTIMATED AT 47%. NEIGHBORHOOD AND BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN ADDITION TO THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE IN COMMUNITIES, THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE OF NEIGHBORHOODS IMPACTS HEALTH. THE AVAILABILITY OF WELL-MAINTAINED ROADS AND SAFE SIDEWALKS, AND ACCESS TO RECREATION, STORES, BANKS, AND OTHER AMENITIES ARE IMPORTANT COMPONENTS FOR HEALTHY LIVING. FEEDBACK FROM KEY STAKEHOLDER SURVEY PARTICIPANTS CENTERED AROUND THE SCARCITY OF RELIABLE AND AFFORDABLE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO RESIDENTS. COMBINED WITH A REGION THAT IS, ON THE WHOLE, "BELOW AVERAGE" IN ITS WALKABILITY RATING, AS WELL AS A RAPIDLY AGING POPULATION, IT CAN BE DIFFICULT TO ACCESS OPPORTUNITIES FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. THESE FACTORS MAKE AFTERNOON STROLLS OR REACHING PUBLIC PARKS - ACTIVITIES THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE BE FREE OF COST - CHALLENGING. OTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO BE ACTIVE MAY COST MONEY, CREATING AN ADDITIONAL BARRIER TO PARTICIPATION. DESPITE THESE CONCERNS, RESIDENTS OF THE NORTHEAST REGION HAVE DEMONSTRATED RESILIENCE IN PRIORITIZING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. SUSQUEHANNA, WAYNE, AND WYOMING COUNTIES ARE FAR BELOW LACKAWANNA AND LUZERNE COUNTIES, AS WELL AS THE STATE AND NATION, IN THE PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION WITH ADEQUATE ACCESS TO LOCATIONS FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. YET, IN ALL THREE OF THESE PLACES, THE PERCENTAGE OF ADULTS WHO PARTICIPATE IN LEISURE TIME PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IS ON PAR WITH THEIR COUNTERPARTS, AND FAR OUTPACES WHAT WOULD BE EXPECTED GIVEN THE REPORTED LACK OF ACCESS. FOOD INSECURITY IS DEFINED AS NOT HAVING RELIABLE ACCESS TO A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF NUTRITIOUS, AFFORDABLE FOOD. FOOD INSECURITY IS ASSOCIATED WITH BOTH DISPARITIES IN BUILT ENVIRONMENT, SUCH AS FOOD DESERTS, AND SOCIOECONOMIC BARRIERS, SUCH AS LOWER HOUSEHOLD INCOME AND POVERTY. FOOD INSECURITY CAN ULTIMATELY AFFECT OVERALL HEALTH STATUS, CONTRIBUTING TO A HIGHER PREVALENCE OF DISEASE AND POORER DISEASE OUTCOMES. IN 2020, FEEDING AMERICA CONSERVATIVELY PROJECTED A 36% GROWTH IN NATIONAL FOOD INSECURITY RATES AS A RESULT OF THE PANDEMIC. SIMILAR TO POVERTY AND UNEMPLOYMENT TRENDS, FOOD INSECURITY DECLINED POST-PANDEMIC, CONTINUING AN OVERALL DOWNWARD TREND, BUT THE IMPACT OF THIS EXPERIENCE ON LONG-TERM HEALTH OUTCOMES SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED. ACROSS THE NORTHEAST REGION IN 2021, APPROXIMATELY 1 IN 10 RESIDENTS WERE ESTIMATED TO BE FOOD INSECURE. IN LACKAWANNA AND LUZERNE COUNTIES, WHERE CHILDREN EXPERIENCE DISPROPORTIONATE POVERTY, NEARLY 1 IN 5 CHILDREN WERE ESTIMATED TO BE FOOD INSECURE. IT IS ALSO WORTH NOTING DISPARITIES AMONG INDIVIDUALS WITH LOW INCOME LIVING IN SUSQUEHANNA COUNTY. SUSQUEHANNA COUNTY OVERALL HAS FEWER RESIDENTS LIVING IN POVERTY AND A SIMILAR PROPORTION OF FOOD INSECURE RESIDENTS AS NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES, BUT APPROXIMATELY 6% OF RESIDENTS WITH LOW INCOME DO NOT LIVE CLOSE TO A GROCERY STORE, THE HIGHEST PROPORTION IN THE REGION. LOW-INCOME RESIDENTS MAY RELY MORE ON SMALLER NEIGHBORHOOD STORES THAT MAY NOT CARRY HEALTHY FOODS OR MAY OFFER THEM ONLY AT HIGHER PRICES, COMPOUNDING HEALTH AND FINANCIAL HARDSHIPS.
PART VI, LINE 4 - COMMUNITY INFORMATION (CONT.)	DURING THE COVID PANDEMIC, WE WERE ABLE TO USE TECHNOLOGY TO BRING SERVICES TO PEOPLE IN THEIR HOMES, BUT NOT UNIFORMLY. WE NEED TO BRIDGE THE WIDE DIGITAL DIVIDE WITHIN OUR COMMUNITIES TO EFFECTIVELY REACH ALL RESIDENTS. THE RESIDENTS OF EACH NORTHEAST REGION COUNTY GENERALLY HAVE DIGITAL ACCESS COMPARABLE TO THEIR NEIGHBORS AND STATE AND NATIONAL PERCENTAGES. HOWEVER, THERE ARE SOME SMALLER COMMUNITIES, HIGHLIGHTED ON THE MAP BELOW, WHERE FEWER THAN 65% OF RESIDENTS HAVE RELIABLE INTERNET ACCESS. THESE COMMUNITIES ARE BOTH URBAN, SUCH AS DOWNTOWN WILKES-BARRE, AS WELL AS MORE RURAL.
PART VI, LINE 5 - PROMOTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH	IN ADDITION TO THE NET COMMUNITY BENEFIT COSTS INCURRED BY THE ORGANIZATION AS REPORTED IN SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7; PLEASE REFER TO SCHEDULE O OF THIS FORM 990 FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S NARRATIVE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STATEMENT FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON HOW THE ORGANIZATION PROMOTES HEALTH AND PROVIDES HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY REGARDLESS OF THE INDIVIDUAL'S ABILITY TO PAY IN FURTHERANCE OF ITS CHARITABLE TAX EXEMPT PURPOSE.
PART VI, LINE 6 - AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM	GEISINGER HEALTH AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES (COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO AS "GEISINGER") COMPRISE A PHYSICIAN-LED, INTEGRATED HEALTH SERVICES ORGANIZATION THAT HAS AS ITS MAIN COMPONENTS: (I) AN ARRAY OF HEALTH SERVICES PROVIDERS, INCLUDING SEVEN WHOLLY-CONTROLLED ACUTE-CARE HOSPITALS WITH MULTIPLE CAMPUSES, JOINT VENTURE FACILITIES AND A DRUG AND ALCOHOL TREATMENT FACILITY; (II) MULTISPECIALTY PHYSICIAN GROUP PRACTICES; (III) INSURANCE OPERATIONS, INCLUDING A LICENSED HEALTH MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION AND A NONLICENSED, RISK ASSUMING PREFERRED PROVIDER ORGANIZATION; AND (IV) A COMMUNITY-BASED MEDICAL COLLEGE AND DEGREE-GRANTING INSTITUTION.
