        <ExplanationTxt>Part V, Section B, Line 11: The 2016 Niagara County Community Health Needs Assessment began by bringing together the participants from the 2013 process. This included the Niagara County Department of Health, and representatives of the four hospitals in Niagara County: Mount St. Mary's, Niagara Falls Memorial, DeGraff Memorial, and Eastern Niagara. The process was coordinated by the P2 Collaborative of Western New York.Initial meetings focused on evaluating activities from the 2013 CHNA's and the County Health Department's Community Service Plan priorities. Despite posting our 2013-16 report on our website and providing notice in the media, we did not receive any written input on the report. Subsequent sessions were devoted to developing a countywide questionnaire to survey residents and initiatives to gather as much relevant data as possible from surveys, interviews, and focus groups.As part of this coordinated initiative, Mount St. Mary's worked to develop an updated three-year(2016-2018) Community Health Improvement Plan/Implementation Strategy (CHIP/IS) to continue the collaboration in our community to improve patient care, preventive services, overall health, and quality of life. Our input process covered many segments of the community including individual surveys, community organizations, local health officials and others of varying socioeconomic backgrounds. Through the needs assessment, numerous areas were identified as important and clearly impact the health of the community. Mount St. Mary's identified the "significant" needs as related to the New York State Department of Health Prevention Agenda priorities. Within the "priorities," Mount St. Mary's will address numerous health needs as described in the publicly available CHNA report.Two priorities not specifically addressed in the implementation plan: Neighborhood Safety and Food/Water Safety. We did not address in our plan because of a lack of expertise and resources to effectively address each of the issues.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The amount in Part III line 2 is the actual bad debt expenses of $2,556,472. The amount in Part III line 3 is the estimate of bad debt from uninsured balance which is developed as follows: as policy is to write accounts to bad debt 120 days after discharge, the discharge date period of 10/1/2015 to 9/30/2016 was used to determine the population of uninsured accounts. The balance of these accounts was determined and the RCC was applied to develop the estimate in H Part III Line 3. As our determination of eligibility for the Healthcare Assistance Program (HAP) (Charity Care) is based solely on the presentation for care without insurance, which is now for each account, and use of a sophisticated estimator (PARO) of each guarantor's ability to pay an estimate of "the amount that reasonably could be attributable to patients who likely would qualify for financial assistance under the hospital's charity care policy if sufficient information had been available to make a determination of their eligibility" is not relevant. The organization's financial statements do not include a footnote that describes bad debt expense, but the financial statements account for bad debt expenses in the statement of operations as actual expenses written off and an estimate of future write-offs less any recoveries.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Catholic Health's Mount St. Mary's Hospital informs and educate patients and persons who may be billed for medical services about their eligibility for assistance under federal, state, or local government programs or our own Healthcare Assistance Program (HAP) in a variety of ways. For example, Mount St. Mary's Hospital, like our other facilities, has posters and brochures available, which include eligibility and contact information for the Financial Clearance staff. This information is available in admissions areas, emergency rooms, primary care and outpatient rehabilitation centers, the Revenue Management Center (RMC) and other areas throughout Catholic Health where eligible patients and family members are likely to be present. Catholic Health also provides information about financial assistance and HAP contact information to patients as part of the intake process and during or within 90 days of their discharge from the hospital. To further assist patients, all patient bills include the following language: "The Catholic Health System has a Healthcare Assistance Program to assist those in need of financial assistance for qualified patients. If you would like to obtain additional information on the Healthcare Assistance Program, please call (716) 601-3600. Thank you." For free, confidential assistance in applying for financial aid, patients can also call our Financial Clearance department at 716-601-3600. A counselor will work with them to see if they qualify for free or low-cost insurance or other financial assistance. For patients who do not have insurance and need care at a Catholic Health hospital, a registration clerk will also assist them in applying for assistance at the time of registration. Interpreting services are also available for patients who do not speak English. Additionally, as part of our case management services, we discuss with patients the availability of various government benefits, such as Medicaid or other state and federal programs, and assist patients and families with eligibility and applications when necessary. There is also information about our financial assistance program in our patient handbooks and posted on the Catholic Health System website.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>One of the fundamental reasons for the creation of Catholic Health was to ensure the continued viability of faith-based health care to meet the needs of residents in Erie County and the surrounding communities. Our Mission Statement - We are called to reveal the healing love of Jesus to those in need - further articulates why we exist. Integral to this effort is caring for the needs of those who are poor and disadvantaged. The services provided by Catholic Health are in response to identified community needs, and reflect the System's emphasis on caring for the underserved. Catholic Health collaborates with other charitable organizations and social service agencies (i.e. Catholic Charities Spectrum Human Services, Evergreen Health Services, Erie County Department of Health, etc.) , to maximize its ability to provide needed services to the residents of our region. The governing Board of Directors of Mount St. Mary's Hospital is comprised of community representatives from universities, legal communities, and business leaders. Religious orders are represented, as well as active and retired medical staff members. The Mount St. Mary's medical staff is considered an "open" medical staff, as any physician can apply for privileges. Each application is reviewed by a vigorous credentialing verification process. The hospital has a robust health professional education programs and participates in teaching programs for other allied health professionals. Our emergency department is open to all people regardless of their ability to pay. Our primary care centers are strategically located in areas deemed economically disadvantaged or where other medical services are lacking. Each year, Catholic Health touches tens of thousands of area residents through its community health education programs, health screenings, clinical and support services, and community service activities. Most of these programs are free to encourage participation by people from all walks of life. Catholic Health will continue to meet community needs by providing charity care to the uninsured and underinsured, traditional Medicaid services, and community benefit programs, including collaborative community health improvement initiatives, health professional education programs, volunteering and community service activities, and cash and in-kind contributions to community organizations that serve the poor and disadvantaged. In 2016, the Catholic Health System provided more than $115 million in charity care and community benefit activities (including $11 million from Mount St. Mary's) to help make our community a healthier place, especially for the poor and underserved. These activities included: - Spearheading Project Homeless Connect - An outreach initiative to link homeless individuals and families with medical and other support services;- Supporting charitable and educational organizations, like the Buffalo City Mission, Friends of Night People, and the Health Science Charter School that help the poor and vulnerable in our community; - Hosting numerous health education and screening programs to help people learn their health risks and take steps to improve their health; - Offering a Healthcare Assistance Program to ensure that people without insurance or financial means get the care they need; - Providing health and wellness information in places of worship through our Faith Community Nursing program; - Helping refugees access quality medical care through our Primary Care and School Based Health Centers, including the Mercy Comprehensive Care Center in Buffalo's Old First Ward; - Providing free care and services to those in need, like our "Cribs for Kids" program, which helps families provide a safe sleeping environment for their newborns; - Supporting children and families in need through our Reach Out and Read Program; Backpack Program for Kids; and Bridget Closet (clothes for the needy);- Sponsoring programs at the Mercy Comprehensive Care Center, which serve the local community, including refugees from Burma, Somalia, the Middle East, and Nepal ; - Providing services through our Social Work Department, which link patients with necessary services including: ESL (English as a Second Language), job opportunities, substance abuse treatment, health care navigators, senior services, insurance information, parenting assistance and more; and - Supporting nationally recognized "green" initiatives to remain good stewards of our natural resources and protect the environment.In 2016, CHS initiated an ongoing program to provide grants to organizations for Community Benefit projects. $120,154 in total was provided to the following organizations:- Expansion of Food Back pack program at West Hertel School on Buffalo, New York- Healthy Weight management at CHS Primary Care centers in Niagara County- HPV Protection for Adolescents in Niagara County- Medical Mission supplies- Donor Human Milk Depots- Trauma and Trauma Informed Care Training- Safe Start for Newborns- Partnership with Enterprise Charter School and Willie Hutch Jones After School program to enrich critical thinking, creativity and to transfer concepts across contexts in STEM disciplines- Health Science Charter School Community Wellness ProjectAs part of Catholic Health, Mount St. Mary's is supportive of the initiatives above. In addition, other ways the Hospital furthers its exempt purpose by promoting the health of the community include free health screenings (Lipid Panel each February as part of Heart Month and PSA in June as part of a Father's Day promotion) and health fairs as described further in our community benefit report in Schedule 0. The organization extends medical staff privileges to all qualified physicians in its community for many of its departments. The organization applies funding to improvements in patient care, such as the expanded cardiology services Women's Center for Breast Health, and its Center for Women, which provides services at both the main hospital and the Neighborhood Health Center facility in an underserved section of the City of Niagara Falls.
