Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part I, Line 6a:ASPIRUS IRONWOOD HOSPITAL & CLINICS PREPARES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT ANNUALLY AND FILES IT WITH THE MICHIGAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION (MHA). THE REPORT IS AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC THROUGH MHA'S DATABASE AND WEBSITE.
Part I, Line 7:THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED ON FORM 990 IS BASED ON A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WHICH IS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS APPLIED AGAINST VARIOUS REVENUE AND EXPENSE CATEGORIES TO COMPUTE THE ESTIMATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE UNDER IRS SUGGESTED COSTING METHODS FROM THE FORM 990.
Part I, Line 7g:Subsidized health services at Aspirus Ironwood Hospital & Clinics include the operation of the hospital's inpatient medical/surgical nursing unit as well as the intensive care unit. The hospital inpatient and intensive care units operate 24 hours per day seven days per week and are staffed by a group of highly trained nursing staff including registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and other support staff. Many of the admissions to the hospital inpatient and intensive care units come from the hospital's emergency department which is operated to provide emergency care to patients of the community and surrounding areas. These subsidized health services work in support and cooperation with the combined efforts of Aspirus Ironwood Hospital & Clinics and share many support functions of the hospital in an effort to provide excellent low cost care to patients in their local community and area. A significant payor for these programs is the Medicare program which does not reimburse the hospital for these services in all cases based on cost so a significant loss is absorbed by the hospital to provide these services to members of the community. It is the goal of Aspirus Ironwood Hospital & Clinics to provide these services to the community regardless of a patient's ability to pay.
Part II, Community Building Activities:ASPIRUS IRONWOOD HOSPITAL & CLINICS PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY BY ALLOCATING TIME AND FUNDING INTO DEVELOPING PROGRAMS THAT FOCUS ON HEALTHY LIFESTYLES FOR FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS. COALITION BUILDING IS A LARGE PART OF THIS. THROUGH COALITIONS SUCH AS INTEGRATED FAMILY SERVICES and a substance abuse network, ASPIRUS IRONWOOD HOSPITAL & CLINICS PROMOTE HEALTHY BEHAVIORS AND REGULAR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IS PROMOTED THROUGH COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE AND KIWANIS.
Part III, Line 4:Patient Accounts Receivable and Credit Policy:
Part III, Line 8:THE TOTAL MEDICARE REVENUE SHOWN IN SCHEDULE H OF THE FORM 990 IS BASED ON THE IRS 990 INSTRUCTIONS AND INCLUDES ONLY A PORTION OF THE GROSS MEDICARE REVENUE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND ALSO DOES NOT CONSIDER CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT THAT IS ACTUALLY RECEIVED FROM THE MEDICARE PROGRAM. AMOUNTS LISTED FOR MEDICARE REVENUES DO NOT INCLUDE SIGNIFICANT PORTIONS OF LABORATORY SERVICES PROVIDED TO MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES AS WELL AS PHYSICIAN SERVICES FOR THE COVERAGE OF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, ANESTHESIA PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, SURGICAL PHYSICIAN PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, AND REVENUES FOR ANY PATIENTS COVERED UNDER MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLAN PROGRAMS. PHYSICIAN SERVICES ARE REIMBURSED PRIMARILY ON FEE SCHEDULES AT RATES THAT ARE OFTEN BELOW THE COSTS OF CARING FOR PATIENTS. EMERGENCY AND SURGICAL SERVICES PROVIDED TO MEDICARE PATIENTS ARE VITAL TO THE WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITY AND THEREFORE THESE COSTS AND SHORTFALLS SHOULD ALSO BE CONSIDERED AS AN ADDITIONAL BENEFIT THAT ASPIRUS Ironwood Hospital & Clinics PROVIDES TO THE COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREAS. THE COSTING METHOD ABOVE FOR IRS 990 COMPLIANCE REPORTING IS ALSO BASED ON THE FILED MEDICARE COST REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2017 AND DOES NOT CONSIDER MEDICARE NON-ALLOWABLE EXPENSES AS IT IS BASED ON TOTAL HOSPITAL PATIENT SERVICE REVENUES (IGNORING CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS ON FEE SCHEDULE REIMBURSED ITEMS AND NON-ALLOWABLE MEDICARE EXPENSES AS NOTED ABOVE).
Part III, Line 9b:PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICES (PFS) PROACTIVELY IDENTIFIES UNINSURED PATIENTS AND UNDER-INSURED PATIENTS AND SCREENS THEM FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND COUNSELING WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, ETHNICITY, GENDER, RELIGION, OR NATIONAL ORIGIN. THESE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED AT NO CHARGE. PFS COUNSELORS WORK WITH UNINSURED AND UNDER-INSURED PATIENTS TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND THE SYSTEM'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE/DISCOUNTING POLICIES AND HOW THEY CAN QUALIFY FOR ASSISTANCE AND/OR DISCOUNTS INCLUDING A REFERRAL TO PUBLIC AND PRIVATE PROGRAMS TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY.
Part VI, Line 2:ASPIRUS IRONWOOD HOSPITAL & CLINICS ASSESSES THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES BY EXAMINING THE NEEDS OF THE PATIENT. THIS IS DONE THROUGH ANALYSIS OF PATIENT VOLUMES IN DEPARTMENTS, SPECIALISTS, AND THE DIFFERENT CLINIC LOCATIONS WITHIN THE Organization'S AREAS OF SERVICE. INFORMATION IS ALSO GATHERED DIRECTLY FROM THE PATIENTS TO SEE WHAT AREAS THEY WOULD LIKE TO SEE ADDITIONAL SUPPORT. INFORMATION REGARDING THE NEEDS OF THE GENERAL COMMUNITY IS OBTAINED FROM THE MICHIGAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION AND THE WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION AND ANALYZED FOR POTENTIAL NEW SERVICE AREAS. Aspirus Ironwood Hospital & Clinics also recently collaborated with other area hospitals to complete a community health needs assessment (CHNA). The CHNA is an important tool in identifying the health needs of the community and results of the project assist in prioritizing health needs that lead to the allocation of appropriate resources and the creation of new partnerships to improve the health of the population.
Part VI, Line 3:A SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE CONTACT INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE IN THE FORM OF A BROCHURE IN THE WAITING AREAS THROUGHOUT ASPIRUS IRONWOOD HOSPITAL & CLINICS. PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICES PERSONNEL ARE AVAILABLE TO DISCUSS PAYMENT OPTIONS AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROCEDURES AND PROGRAMS WITH PATIENTS. ASPIRUS IRONWOOD HOSPITAL & CLINICS ALSO HAS A SECTION ON ITS WEBSITE THAT PROVIDES CONTACT INFORMATION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR THOSE HAVING DIFFICULTY MEETING THEIR FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.
Part VI, Line 4:THE COMMUNITIES THAT ASPIRUS IRONWOOD HOSPITAL & CLINICS SERVE COVER AN APPROXIMATE 50-MILE RADIUS SURROUNDING THE IRONWOOD, MICHIGAN AREA.
