PART V SECTION B LINE 5 To solicit input from key informants, those individuals who have a broad interest in the health of the community, an Online Key Informant Survey was also implemented as part of this process. A list of recommended participants was provided by Trustees of Mease Hospital; this list included names and contact information for physicians, public health representatives, other health professionals, social service providers, and a variety of other community leaders. Potential participants were chosen because of their ability to identify primary concerns of the populations with whom they work, as well as of the community overall. Key informants were contacted by email, introducing the purpose of the survey and providing a link to take the survey online; reminder emails were sent as needed to increase participation. In all, 66 community stakeholders in the Trustees of Mease Service Area took part in the Online Key Informant Survey, as outlined on page 8 of the CHNA. Several of the participants responding to the survey represent organizations which work with low-income, minority or other medically underserved populations.

Based on the scope/scale of the issue; Mease Countryside and Mease Dunedin Hospitals leadership teams perceived ability to impact the issue; the availability of existing community resources already in place to address the issue and considering community stakeholder feedback, the significant health needs identified during the 2016 assessment that are not directly referenced in the 2017-2019 CHNA implementation strategy are listed below: Cancer Mease Countryside and Mease Dunedin Hospitals remain committed to supporting those affected by cancer. Mease Countryside and Mease Dunedin Hospitals leadership believes that existing hospital initiatives and new efforts outlined herein to improve access to health services will have a positive impact on aiding those affected by cancer and that a separate set of initiatives was not necessary at this time. Dementia (including Alzheimers Disease) Mease Countryside Hospital and Mease Dunedin Hospital have limited resources, services and expertise available to address Dementia (including Alzheimers Disease). While this is an important issue, other community organizations have infrastructure and programs in place to better meet this need. Limited resources and lower priority excluded this as an area chosen for action. HIV/AIDS Mease Countryside and Mease Dunedin Hospitals have limited resources, services and expertise available to address HIV/AIDS. Other community organizations (including resources within the BayCare health system) have infrastructure in place to better meet this need. Limited resources excluded this as an area chosen for action.

Other community organizations have infrastructure and programs in place to better meet this need. Limited resources excluded this as an area chosen for action. Oral Health Mease Countryside and Mease Dunedin Hospitals have limited resources, services and expertise available to address oral health. Other community organizations have infrastructure and programs in place to better meet this need. Limited resources and lower priority excluded this as an area chosen for action. Potentially Disabling Conditions Mease Countryside and Mease Dunedin Hospitals leadership believes that efforts outlined herein to improve access to health services will have a positive impact on aiding those with potentially disabling conditions and that a separate set of initiatives was not necessary at this time. Sexually Transmitted Diseases Mease Countryside and Mease Dunedin Hospitals leadership believes that this priority area falls more within the purview of the county health department and other community organizations. Limited resources and lower priority excluded this as an area chosen for action.

THESE PATIENTS ARE SCREENED BY DESIGNATED TEAM MEMBERS IN OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DEPARTMENT. THE AGENCY FOR HEALTH CARE ADMINISTRATION (AHCA) DEFINES CHARITY ELIGIBILITY AT 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES, UNLESS THE TOTAL HOSPITAL BILL IS MORE THAN 25 PERCENT OF THE PATIENT'S ANNUAL INCOME. MEDICAID RECIPIENTS WHO HAVE EXCEEDED THEIR COVERAGE LIMITS ARE ALSO CONSIDERED FOR CHARITY CARE. TRUSTEES OF MEASE HOSPITAL, INC GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND THE AHCA REQUIREMENTS BY PROVIDING ADDITIONAL "HARDSHIP" CHARITY FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE AT 250 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES. IN ADDITION, AN UNINSURED DISCOUNT OF 40% IS AUTOMATICALLY GIVEN TO ANY PATIENT WHO DOES NOT HAVE INSURANCE COVERAGE OR BENEFITS. THERE IS NO INCOME OR ASSET TEST REQUIRED FOR THE UNINSURED DISCOUNT. PATIENTS RECEIVE AN ADDITIONAL 10% DISCOUNT IF THE ACCOUNT IS PAID WITHIN 30 DAYS. PART I LINE 6A THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT IS AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC AND WAS PREPARED BY BAYCARE HEALTH SYSTEM INC. (EIN 59-2796965), A RELATED ORGANIZATION. PART I LINE 7 FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND MEANS-TESTED GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS COSTS (LINES A THROUGH D) ARE DETERMINED USING OUR COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM, WHICH CAPTURES ALL INPATIENTS AND OUTPATIENTS, INCLUDING EMERGENCY ROOM PATIENTS. THE SYSTEM ALSO CAPTURES ALL PATIENT PAY TYPES - PRIVATE INSURANCE, MEDICARE, MEDICAID, UNINSURED AND SELF PAY. THE COSTS HAVE BEEN OFFSET BY ANY PAYMENTS RECEIVED FROM MEDICAID OR ANY OTHER UNCOMPENSATED CARE PROGRAM. OTHER BENEFITS AT COST (LINES E THROUGH J, AS WELL AS AMOUNTS REPORTED IN PART II) WERE COMPILED BY THE COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT USING THE CATHOLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATION GUIDE FOR PLANNING AND REPORTING COMMUNITY BENEFITS. PART I LINE 7 COLUMN F BAD DEBT EXPENSE OF $27,057,279 WAS INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN. PART II MEASE DUNEDIN AND MEASE COUNTRYSIDE HOSPITALS SUPPORT THE HEALTH OF ITS COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING COMMUNITY SUPPORT, HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ADVOCACY, AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT THROUGH COLLABORATION WITH SEVERAL COMMUNITY BASED CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS: - KIWANIS CLUB OF DUNEDIN, FL WHICH SUPPORTS THE CHILDREN OF THE COMMUNITY THROUGH THE FLORIDA SHERIFFS YOUTH RANCH "EVERY CHILD A SWIMMER" PROGRAM, AND PROVIDING BABY FOOD -THE MORTON PLANT MEASE FOUNDATION THROUGH ITS "CAMP NURSE JR." PROGRAM WHICH TEACHES 7 AND 8TH GRADE STUDENTS ABOUT STRESS MANAGEMENT, HOW TO PERFORM CPR, AND HEALTHY EATING HABITS. IN ADDITION TO SUPPORTING THESE CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS THE PASTORAL CARE DEPARTMENTS OF THE RESPECTIVE FACILITIES WORK IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITIES TO PRESENT INFORMATION AND ADVOCATE FOR HEALTH IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES. PART III LINES 2, 3 BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS REPORTED AS TOTAL BAD DEBT FOR THE FACILITY. THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS CALCULATED AS A CHARGE RATIO, DERIVED FROM DATA SAMPLING. THE RESULTING CHARGE RATIO IS THEN APPLIED TO TOTAL BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS OF THE ORGANIZATION, WHICH CALCULATES THE BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO FINANCE ASSISTANCE. THE STATE OF FLORIDA REQUIRES THE PATIENT TO PROVIDE CERTAIN DOCUMENTATION IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. IN CASES WHERE THE PATIENT HAS NOT RESPONDED TO HOSPITAL REQUESTS OR BILLING STATEMENT ALERTS, THOSE ACCOUNTS ARE PROCESSED AS BAD DEBT, IF UNPAID. PART III LINE 4 THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INCLUDE A FOOTNOTE THAT DESCRIBES BAD DEBT EXPENSE ON PAGE 10 AND 11 OF THE MORTON PLANT MEASE HEALTH CARE, INC. AND AFFILIATES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. PART III LINE 8 COST REPORTS WERE USED TO REPORT MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS. MEDICARE DEFINES ALLOWABLE COSTS AS THOSE APPROPRIATE AND HELPFUL IN DEVELOPING AND MAINTAINING THE OPERATION OF PATIENT CARE FACILITIES AND ACTIVITIES. IT SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDES CERTAIN COSTS THAT ARE NOT DIRECTLY RELATED TO PATIENT CARE. THE HOSPITAL INCURS ADDITIONAL EXPENSE RELATED TO THE PROVISION OF CARE TO MEDICARE PATIENTS THAT MEDICARE HAS DEEMED NON-ALLOWABLE. THIS ADDITIONAL EXPENSE INCLUDES COSTS OF PHYSICIAN SERVICES (EMERGENCY ON-CALL FEES, HOSPITALIST PROGRAM, RECRUITMENT, ETC.), ADVERTISING COSTS, CAFETERIA COSTS FOR MEALS SOLD TO VISITORS, ETC. THE HOSPITAL ATTEMPTS TO COLLECT COINSURANCE AND DEDUCTIBLES FROM MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES. TO THE EXTENT COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE UNSUCCESSFUL, MEDICARE REIMBURSES THE HOSPITAL AT 70% OF UNPAID AMOUNTS. THE FOLLOWING TABLE RECONCILES THE SURPLUS OR SHORTFALL FROM LINE 7 TO THE ACTUAL SURPLUS OR SHORTFALL. THE ADDITIONAL COSTS WERE ALLOCATED TO MEDICARE BASED UPON MEDICARE'S PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL ALLOWABLE COSTS. THE UNPAID COINSURANCE/DEDUCTIBLES WERE ESTIMATED USING HISTORICAL COLLECTION RESULTS. ANY SHORTFALL AMOUNTS HAVE NOT BEEN TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT. - LINE 7 SURPLUS OR (SHORTFALL) ($14,223,766) - ADDITIONAL NON-ALLOWABLE COSTS AND UNPAID/NON-REIMBURSED COINSURANCE/DEDUCTIBLES: ($10,221,394) - TOTAL SURPLUS OR (SHORTFALL): ($24,445,160) PART III LINE 9B PATIENTS WHO ARE UNABLE TO PAY ARE ENCOURAGED BY BAYCARE HEALTH SYSTEM REPRESENTATIVES, VIA PERSONAL INTERVIEWS, SIGNAGE, ON PATIENT BILLING STATEMENTS, BROCHURES OR CUSTOMER SERVICE PHONE CALLS, TO SUBMIT FINANCIAL INFORMATION TO THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DEPARTMENT TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY FOR PROGRAMS, SUCH AS COUNTY, MEDICAID, DISABILITY, VICTIMS OF CRIME, CHARITY, ETC. FOR THOSE PATIENTS WHO PROVIDE ALL THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION AND QUALIFY FOR CHARITY ACCORDING TO THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, (DEFINED IN PART I, LINE 3C), PATIENTS' ACCOUNT BALANCE WOULD BE WRITTEN OFF COMPLETELY TO CHARITY AND NOT BILLED TO THE PATIENTS.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c Part VI, Line 12c - Description of Process to Monitor Transactions for Conflicts of Interest Trustees of Mease Hospital, Inc. has two separate conflict of interest procedures; one that relates to Board members and another that relates to non-board member employees. Both groups are required on an annual basis to complete, sign and file an annual disclosure statement detailing existing or potential conflicts of interests. For Board members, the review of conflicts or potential conflicts occurs at the Board or committee level. After disclosure of the Board Member's or Committee Member's actual or potential conflict, the following procedures for addressing the conflict of interest will be adhered to by each Board and all Committees with Board delegated powers, without exception: 1. The interested Director or Committee member shall leave the Board or Committee meeting while the conflict of interest issue is discussed. 2. The remaining Board or Committee Members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. 3. If a conflict of interest is deemed to exist: a. The Chairperson of the Board or Committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested individual or committee to investigate the proposed transaction or arrangement. b. The Board or Committee shall determine whether the BayCare entity can obtain a more advantageous transaction or arrangement with reasonable efforts from an individual or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. c. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably available, the Board or Committee shall determine whether the transaction or arrangement is in the BayCare entity's best interest, and whether the transaction is fair and reasonable to BayCare. An interested Director or Committee Member shall not vote, participate in, influence or attempt to influence any determination or proceedings. The Director or Committee Member may, however, respond to questions posed by the Board or Committee regarding the contract or transaction. Any such contract or transaction must be authorized by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Directors or Committee Members entitled to vote at a meeting at which a quorum was present. Any interested Director or Committee Member may not be counted in determining the existence of a quorum. For employees, the review of conflicts of interest or potential conflicts goes to the Conflict of Interest Determination Committee. This committee consists of BayCare Chief Compliance Officer, the Corporate Responsibility Officers, and the BayCare Vice President of Team Resources. This committee shall determine if an actual conflict exists and any action required to address the conflict of interest situation. Form 990, Part VI, Lines 15a & 15b The filing organization does not directly compensate some of its top management employees; rather compensation is paid by a related organization that also follows the compensation policy of the Compensation Committee. The independent Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee's purpose is to provide oversight for the organization's executive compensation program, review and approve compensation and benefits for all "disqualified persons" subject to the Intermediate Sanctions regulations issued under Section 4958 of the Internal Revenue Code (including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer & Chief Financial Officer, other system and entity executives, and other disqualified persons as defined in the Intermediate Sanctions regulations (i.e., voting members of the governing body, family members, former officers)), and establish the compensation philosophy for all other executives. This committee engages nationally recognized compensation consultants to assist them in review of executive compensation. The compensation consultants provide a review of each vice president and above in the system to determine if that employee's compensation is reasonable when compared against market standards. The data reviewed comes from compensation studies that include comparable compensation for similarly qualified persons in functionally comparable positions at similarly situated organizations. The organization keeps contemporaneous minutes of the compensation committees meetings and decisions. External consultants review compensation every other year with the last review occurring in 2015 but the compensation committee regularly monitors compensation and all other procedures are followed annually.
