Form And Line Reference	PART V, SECTION C - DESCRIPTION FOR PART V, SEC B, LINE 2	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	N/A PART V, SECTION C - DESCRIPTION FOR PART V, SEC B, LINE 3J N/A PART V, SECTION C - DESCRIPTION FOR PART V, SEC B, LINE 5 IN 2014-2016, ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL COMPLETED A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) BY WORKING COLLABORATIVELY WITH TWO PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS-THE MCHENRY COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND KANE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT. BOTH HEALTH DEPARTMENTS WORKED WITHIN A COMMUNITY COLLABORATIVE WITH A NUMBER OF OTHER COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT, USING THE MOBILIZING ACTION THROUGH PLANNING AND PARTNERSHIPS (MAPP) PROCESS. THIS STRATEGY ENABLED THE HOSPITAL TO PARTICIPATE IN DATA COLLECTION THAT COVERED ALL OF THE HOSPITALS PRIMARY SERVICE AREA (PSA) AND THE MAJORITY OF THE SECONDARY SERVICE AREA (SSA). FOR PURPOSES OF SHERMAN HOSPITALS CHNA, THE COMMUNITY WAS DEFINED AS THE FOLLOWING COMMUNITIES LOCATED IN BOTH KANE AND MCHENRY COUNTIES: ALGONQUIN, CARPENTERSVILLE, DUNDEE, ELGIN, GILBERTS, HUNTLEY, LAKE IN THE HILLS AND SOUTH ELGIN. THE MCHENRY COUNTY SURVEY CONSISTED OF THREE COMPONENTS-A COMMUNITY SURVEY, KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEW OF COMMUNITY LEADERS AND A COMMUNITY ANALYSIS USING SECONDARY DATA SOURCES. THE KANE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT CONDUCTED ITS MOST RECENT COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT IN 2014, WHICH INCLUDED THREE COMPONENTS-A COMMUNITY SURVEY, KEY INFORMANT FOCUS GROUPS, AND SECONDARY DATA ANALYSIS CONSISTING OF PUBLIC HEALTH, VITAL STATISTICS AND OTHER DATA. IN PREPARATION FOR THE SELECTION OF PRIORITIES, SHERMAN HOSPITAL STAFF PRESENTED DEMOGRAPHIC, ECONOMIC, EDUCATION, EMPLOYMENT AND HEALTH DATA TO THE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCIL OVER A PERIOD OF SEVERAL MEETINGS. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCIL IS AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO THE HOSPITAL, TO ASSIST IN THE SELECTION OF HEALTH PRIORITIES, AND ADVISE AND MONITOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH INTERVENTIONS TO ADDRESS THE HEALTH ISSUES IN THE COMMUNITY. IN ALIGNMENT WITH ADVOCATE HEALTH CARES STANDARDIZED APPROACH, SHERMAN HOSPITAL CONVENED ITS COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCIL EVERY THREE MONTHS, FROM APRIL THROUGH SEPTEMBER 2016, TO REVIEW THE RESULTS OF THE CHNA. THIS COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCIL WAS CHAIRED BY A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COMMUNITY WHO ALSO SERVES AS A HOSPITAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEMBER. ADDITIONAL HOSPITAL STAFF AND COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES WERE ADDED TO THE COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCIL REPRESENTING A VARIETY OF EXPERTISE AREAS, INCLUDING ELECTED OFFICIALS, AREA BUSINESSES, SCHOOL DISTRICTS, OTHER HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS, AND THE FAITH COMMUNITY. THE AFFIDAVITS OF THESE REPRESENTATIVES AND THE NAMES OF THE ORGANIZATIONS THEY REPRESENT ARE PROVIDED BELOW.

BREAST CANCER THE GOAL OF BREAST CANCER PROGRAMMING WAS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO BREAST CANCER SCREENINGS FOR THE LOW-INCOME FEMALE HISPANIC POPULATION. THE PERFORMANCE MEASURE WAS TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF REFERRALS MADE FOR SCREENING MAMMOGRAMS AS COMPARED TO THE ACTUAL NUMBER OF MAMMOGRAMS COMPLETED. THE SHERMAN HOSPITAL AUXILIARY PROVIDED ANNUAL FUNDING TO THE WOMENS ORGANIZATION FOR WELLNESS (WOW) TO PAY FOR WOMEN TO RECEIVE FREE MAMMOGRAMS AS PART OF THE PROGRAM. WOW DISTRIBUTES VOUCHERS TO PATIENTS AT HEALTH EVENTS AS WELL AS THROUGH THE GREATER ELGIN FAMILY CARE CENTER OR THE VISITING NURSES ASSOCIATION, BOTH FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS (FQHCS). IN 2016, WOW PROCESSED 119 MAMMOGRAMS. THE HOSPITAL WORKED WITH WOW TO PROVIDE EDUCATIONAL INFORMATION TO LOW-INCOME HISPANIC WOMEN DURING TWO OUTREACH PROGRAMS IN THE COMMUNITY. OBESITY THE HOSPITALS GOAL WAS TO DECREASE OBESITY FOR LOW-INCOME COMMUNITY MEMBERS. THE PERFORMANCE MEASURE IDENTIFIED WAS THE TOTAL NUMBER OF POUNDS OF FRESH PRODUCE DONATED FROM THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY GARDEN TO THE LOCAL FOOD PANTRY-FOOD FOR GREATER ELGIN. THE SHERMAN HOSPITAL NATURAL PRAIRIE & COMMUNITY GARDEN MASTER GARDENS, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS MASTER GARDENER PROGRAM, PROVIDED APPROXIMATELY 400 POUNDS OF PRODUCE WHICH WAS DONATED TO FOOD FOR GREATER ELGIN IN 2016. EIGHTY FAMILIES OR APPROXIMATELY 325 INDIVIDUALS WERE POSITIVELY IMPACTED BY HARVESTED PRODUCE FROM THE GARDENS. IN ADDITION, THE HOSPITALS COMMUNITY GARDEN COMMITTEE PARTNERED WITH FOOD FOR GREATER ELGIN TO HAVE THEIR OWN GARDEN BED AT SHERMAN HOSPITAL. VOLUNTEERS AND STAFF FROM THE FOOD PANTRY TENDED THE GARDEN AND HARVESTED ALL CROPS FOR THEIR CLIENTS. FINALLY, SHERMAN HOSPITAL DIETITIANS PROVIDED HEALTHY SEASONAL RECIPES IN BOTH ENGLISH AND SPANISH ON A MONTHLY BASIS TO FOOD PANTRY CLIENTS. NEEDS NOT SELECTED TO ADDRESS THERE WERE ADDITIONAL HEALTH ISSUES THAT WERE NOT SELECTED AS PRIORITIES FOR NEW ACTIVITY AS THESE WERE AREAS WHERE THE HOSPITAL HAD EXISTING PROGRAMS OR PARTNERSHIPS. ACCESS TO DENTAL CARE FOR LOW-INCOME POPULATION SHERMAN HOSPITAL DOES NOT HAVE DENTISTS ON THE MEDICAL STAFF OR A RESIDENCY PROGRAM TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES. HOWEVER, THE FQHCS HAVE DENTAL PROGRAMS IN PLACE TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES AND SHERMAN HOSPITAL REGULARLY REFERS PATIENTS SEEN IN ITS SYSTEM TO THESE FQHCS FOR DENTAL CARE. INFORMATION AND REFERRAL TO ADDRESS THE NEED FOR HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE INFORMATION AND REFERRAL, SHERMAN HOSPITAL FOCUSED ON INCREASING HEALTH SCREENINGS AND FOLLOW-UP CARE FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO USE THE FOOD FOR GREATER ELGIN FOOD PANTRY. SHERMAN HOSPITAL PROVIDED FREE MONTHLY BLOOD PRESSURE AND GLUCOSE SCREENINGS TO FOOD PANTRY CLIENTS. IF A SCREENED INDIVIDUAL WAS IDENTIFIED AS HIGH RISK, HOSPITAL STAFF REFERRED THE PATIENT TO THE GREATER ELGIN FAMILY CARE CENTER, AN FQHC LOCATED IN ELGIN. IN SOME CASES, AN APPOINTMENT FOR PRIMARY CARE WAS MADE WHILE THE PATIENT WAS AT THE FOOD PANTRY. A TOTAL OF EIGHTY-NINE COMMUNITY MEMBERS WERE SCREENED FOR BLOOD PRESSURE AND GLUCOSE AT THE FOOD PANTRY IN 2016, AND FIVE PATIENTS WERE REFERRED TO THE GREATER ELGIN FAMILY CARE CENTER FOR ONGOING PRIMARY CARE.

IN ADDITION, OTHER PROGRAMS ARE CARRIED OUT WITH THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF IMPROVING COMMUNITY HEALTH, ACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICES AND GENERAL HEALTH KNOWLEDGE. THESE SERVICES DO NOT GENERATE PATIENT BILLS, HOWEVER, CERTAIN PROGRAMS OR SERVICES MAY HAVE NOMINAL FEES. PART VI, LINE 1 DESCRIPTION FOR PART I, LINE 7G ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL PROVIDES SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY. THESE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED DESPITE CREATING A FINANCIAL LOSS FOR ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL. THESE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED BECAUSE THEY MEET AN IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY NEED. IF ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL DID NOT PROVIDE THE CLINICAL SERVICE, IT IS REASONABLE TO CONCLUDE THAT THESE SERVICES WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE TO THE COMMUNITY. PART VI, LINE 1 DESCRIPTION FOR PART I, LINE 7H ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL CONDUCTS NUMEROUS RESEARCH ACTIVITIES FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF MEDICAL AND HEALTH CARE SERVICES. HOWEVER, THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF SUCH RESEARCH ACTIVITIES IS NOT READILY DETERMINABLE AND NO AMOUNT IS BEING REPORTED FOR PURPOSES OF THE 2016 FORM 990, SCHEDULE H. PART VI, LINE 1 DESCRIPTION FOR PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F) $23,914,293 OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT WAS REMOVED FROM THE DENOMINATOR FOR PURPOSES OF SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F). PART VI, LINE 1 - DESCRIPTION FOR PART II N/A PART VI, LINE 1 - DESCRIPTION FOR PART III, LINES 2, 3, AND 4 THE FOOTNOTES TO ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE NETWORK AND SUBSIDIARIES' AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT SPECIFICALLY ADDRESS BAD DEBT EXPENSE; RATHER, THE FOOTNOTE DESCRIBES ADVOCATE'S PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE POLICY AND THE PERCENTAGE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE THAT THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS COVERS (SEE PAGE 11 OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS). FOR 2016, FOR ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL, THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS COVERED 30.69% OF NET PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE STATED AT NET REALIZABLE VALUE. ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL EVALUATES THE COLLECTABILITY OF ITS ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE BASED ON THE LENGTH OF TIME THE RECEIVABLE IS OUTSTANDING, PAYER CLASS, HISTORICAL COLLECTION EXPERIENCE, AND TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE INSURANCE PROGRAMS. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE CHARGED TO THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS WHEN THEY ARE DEEMED UNCOLLECTIBLE. THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED IN DETERMINING THE AMOUNTS REPORTED ON LINES 2 AND 3 IS BASED ON THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES. THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF BAD DEBT WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS (CMS 2252-96 WORKSHEET C, PART 1, PPS INPATIENT RATIOS) TO THE ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT PROVISION PER GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, LESS ANY PATIENT OR THIRD PARTY PAYOR PAYMENTS RECEIVED. ADVOCATE MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO IDENTIFY THOSE PATIENTS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BY STRICTLY ADHERING TO ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. WE BELIEVE THAT ADVOCATE HAS A POPULATION OF PATIENTS WHO ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED BUT WHO DO NOT COMPLETE THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION. THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) WHICH COULD BE REASONABLY ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO WOULD LIKELY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, IF SUFFICIENT INFORMATION HAD BEEN AVAILABLE TO MAKE A DETERMINATION OF THEIR ELIGIBILITY, WAS BASED UPON SELF PAY PATIENT ACCOUNTS WHICH HAD AMOUNTS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBTS. OUR METHOD WAS TO BEGIN WITH THE SELF-PAY PORTION OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE PROVISION. THE SELF PAY PORTION EXCLUDES THOSE PATIENTS WHO HAD CHARITY APPLICATIONS PENDING AT THE TIME OF SERVICE. THIS COST WAS THEN REDUCED BY CHARGES IDENTIFIED AS TRUE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, INCLUDING COPAYS FOR PATIENTS WHO QUALIFIED FOR LESS THAN 100% FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS THEN APPLIED TO THE REMAINING CHARGES, TO DETERMINE THE VALUE (AT COST) OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS THAT DID NOT COMPLETE FINANCIAL COUNSELING AND WERE ASSIGNED TO BAD DEBT. WE BELIEVE THIS PROCESS IS A REASONABLE BASIS FOR OUR ESTIMATE. AS WE ARE ONLY CONSIDERING SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT FOR THIS ESTIMATE, THIS ESTIMATE DOES NOT INCLUDE THE IMMEDIATE 30% DISCOUNT TO CHARGES WHICH IS APPLIED TO ALL SELF-PAY PATIENTS. IT ALSO DOES NOT INCLUDE ACCOUNT BALANCES OR CO-PAYS OF NON-SELF PAY ACCOUNTS WHICH ARE WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT WHEN THE PATIENT HAS NO OTHER FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO PAY THESE AMOUNTS AND THE PATIENT DOES NOT APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. BAD DEBT AMOUNTS HAVE BEEN EXCLUDED FROM OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT AMOUNTS REPORTED THROUGHOUT SCHEDULE H. PART VI, LINE 1 - DESCRIPTION FOR PART III, LINE 8 THE SHORTFALL OF $5,433,241 ON PART III, LINE 7 IS THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF PROVIDING SERVICES FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE PROVIDING THESE SERVICES WITHOUT REIMBURSEMENT LESSENS THE BURDENS OF GOVERNMENT OR OTHER CHARITIES THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE NEEDED TO SERVE THE COMMUNITY. FOR ADVOCATE SHERMANS OPERATIONS, THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF MEDICARE WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE ORGANIZATIONS COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS (CMS 2252-96 WORKSHEET C, PART 1, PPS INPATIENT RATIOS) AND FOR NON-HOSPITAL OPERATIONS THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO CALCULATED ON WORKSHEET 2 RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES TO THE ORGANIZATIONS MEDICARE, LESS ANY PATIENT OR THIRD PARTY PAYOR PAYMENTS AND/OR CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED THAT WERE DESIGNATED FOR THE PAYMENT OF MEDICARE PATIENT BILLS. PART VI, LINE 1 - DESCRIPTION FOR PART III, LINE 9B ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL MAINTAINS BOTH WRITTEN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND BAD DEBT/COLLECTION POLICIES. THE BAD DEBT/COLLECTION POLICY DOES NOT APPLY TO THOSE PATIENTS KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, THEREFORE SUCH PATIENTS ARE NOT SUBJECT TO COLLECTION PRACTICES. PART VI, LINE 2. NEEDS ASSESSMENT N/A PART VI, LINE 3. PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL ASSISTS PATIENTS WITH ENROLLMENT IN GOVERNMENT-SUPPORTED PROGRAMS FOR WHICH THEY ARE ELIGIBLE AND IN SECURING REIMBURSEMENT FROM AVAILABLE THIRD PARTY RESOURCES. FINANCIAL COUNSELING IS PROVIDED TO HELP PATIENTS IDENTIFY AND OBTAIN PAYMENT FROM THIRD PARTIES, INCLUDING ILLINOIS MEDICAID, ILLINOIS CRIME VICTIMS FUND, ETC., AS WELL AS TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY UNDER ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITALS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. ADVOCATE UTILIZES A FINANCIAL SCREENING SOFTWARE PROGRAM TO HELP IDENTIFY PUBLIC ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS FOR WHICH THE PATIENT MAY BE ELIGIBLE OR ADVOCATE'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT THE TIME OF REGISTRATION OR AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE THEREAFTER. IN ADDITION, HEALTHADVISOR, ADVOCATE'S EDUCATION REGISTRATION AND PHYSICIAN REFERRAL TELEPHONE CENTER, SERVES AS A COMMUNITY RESOURCE PROVIDING REFERRALS TO GOVERNMENT-FUNDED AND OTHER PROGRAMS VIA TELEPHONE FROM 7 A.M.

ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL ASSISTS PATIENTS WITH APPLYING FOR ADVOCATE'S OWN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE/CHARITY CARE SERVICES, IF PATIENTS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR GOVERNMENT-SUPPORTED PROGRAMS. ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL COMMUNICATES THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN THE APPLICABLE LANGUAGES OF THE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY. MEANS OF COMMUNICATION INCLUDE: 1. THE HEALTH CARE CONSENT THAT IS SIGNED UPON REGISTRATION FOR HOSPITAL SERVICES INCLUDES A STATEMENT THAT FINANCIAL COUNSELING, INCLUDING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE CONSIDERATION, IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. 2. SIGNS ARE CLEARLY AND CONSPICUOUSLY POSTED IN LOCATIONS THAT ARE VISIBLE TO THE PUBLIC, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO HOSPITAL PATIENT ACCESS, REGISTRATION, EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, CASHIER, AND BUSINESS OFFICE LOCATIONS. 3. BROCHURES ARE PLACED IN HOSPITAL PATIENT ACCESS, REGISTRATION, EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, CASHIER, AND BUSINESS OFFICE LOCATIONS, AND WILL INCLUDE GUIDANCE ON HOW A PATIENT MAY APPLY FOR MEDICARE, MEDICAID, ALL KIDS, FAMILY CARE ETC., AND THE HOSPITALS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPROVEMENTS ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE IS COMMITTED TO GREENING HEALTH CARE BECAUSE IT IS DEEPLY CONNECTED TO OUR CORE MISSION - HEALTH AND HEALING. WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE HEALTH OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE HEALTH OF THE PATIENTS AND COMMUNITIES WE SERVE IS INEXTRICABLY LINKED - AND THAT A HEALTHY PLANET SUPPORTS HEALTHY PEOPLE. REDUCING WASTE, CONSERVING ENERGY AND WATER, MINIMIZING USE OF TOXIC CHEMICALS, AND CONSTRUCTING ECO-FRIENDLY BUILDINGS FOR TODAY AND TOMORROW - ALL OF THESE EFFORTS HAVE A DIRECT BENEFIT ON THE HEALTH OF LOCAL COMMUNITIES VIA CLEANER COMMUNITIES, HEALTHIER AIR QUALITY, REDUCED GREEN HOUSE GASES, AND PRESERVATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES. AS WE WORK TO REDUCE THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND HEALTH IMPACT OF HEALTH CARE, OUR ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP PRACTICES HELP EASE THE BURDEN OF HEALTH CARE COSTS BOTH DIRECTLY (LOWER ENERGY COSTS) AND INDIRECTLY (LOWER ENVIRONMENTALLY-RELATED DISEASE BURDEN). 1. MENTORING AND EDUCATION AS WE WORK TO SERVE THE HEALTH NEEDS OF TODAYS PATIENTS AND FAMILIES WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE NEEDS OF FUTURE GENERATIONS, ADVOCATE HAS COMMITTED RESOURCES TO SHARING LESSONS LEARNED AND BEST PRACTICES WITH OTHER HOSPITALS AND HEALTH SYSTEMS, BOTH LOCALLY AND NATIONALLY, AND DO SO IN A VARIETY OF WAYS.

PARISH NURSE MINISTRY	ADVOCATE EMPLOYS AND PROVIDES BENEFITS FOR 15 ADVOCATE FAITH COMMUNITY NURSES SERVING 18 CONGREGATIONS WITH 4 OF THE POSITIONS FULLY FUNDED BY ADVOCATE. FURTHERMORE, ADVOCATE PROVIDES CONTINUING EDUCATION AND OTHER SUPPORT FOR AN ADDITIONAL 21 FAITH COMMUNITY NETWORK NURSES SERVING 21 CONGREGATIONS THROUGH ITS PARISH NURSE MINISTRY PROGRAM. THESE FAITH COMMUNITY NURSES PROVIDE HEALTH EDUCATION, WELLNESS PROMOTION, HEALTH SCREENINGS, ADVOCACY AND SPIRITUAL SUPPORT TO FAITH COMMUNITIES IN ADVOCATES CITY AND SUBURBAN HOSPITAL SERVICE AREAS. ADVOCATE ALSO FUNDS SYSTEM LEVEL PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES FOCUSED ON POSITIVELY AFFECTING THE HEALTH STATUS AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF INDIVIDUALS AND POPULATIONS IN COMMUNITIES SERVED BY ADVOCATE. TWO EXAMPLES OF SUCH PROGRAMS FOLLOW. ADVOCATE BETHANY COMMUNITY HEALTH FUND (BETHANY FUND) ESTABLISHED IN 2006 BY ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE AS PART OF AN ONGOING COMMITMENT TO HELP BUILD, PROMOTE AND SUSTAIN HEALTHY COMMUNITIES ON CHICAGOS WEST SIDE, THE BETHANY FUND SUPPORTS NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE IN THE COMMUNITIES HISTORICALLY SERVED BY ADVOCATE BETHANY HOSPITAL (NOW RML CHICAGO)-AUSTIN, GARFIELD PARK, HUMBOLDT PARK AND NORTH LAWNDALE. THE FUND DOES THIS THROUGH PROGRAM GRANTS, ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY BUILDING EVENTS AND PARTNERSHIPS TO BUILD ON THE ASSETS OF THESE VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES. FOR 2016, THE BETHANY FUND APPROVED $824,000 IN PROGRAM GRANTS ADDRESSING PRIORITY AREAS OF DIABETES, EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING, SCHOOL DROPOUT PREVENTION AND VIOLENCE PREVENTION. CENTER FOR FAITH AND COMMUNITY HEALTH TRANSFORMATION THE CENTER FOR FAITH AND COMMUNITY HEALTH TRANSFORMATION DEVELOPS PARTNERSHIPS WITH FAITH AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO BUILD COMMUNITY, NURTURE LEADERS AND CONNECT THE UNIQUE SPIRIT POWER OF FAITH COMMUNITIES TO PROMOTE SOCIAL JUSTICE AND ABUNDANT LIFE FOR INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES. THE CENTER ITSELF IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE AND THE OFFICE FOR COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND NEIGHBORHOOD HEALTH PARTNERSHIPS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT CHICAGO. THE CENTER HAS BEEN LEADING THE COURAGE TO LOVE COLLABORATIVE (CTLC), A PARTNERSHIP AMONG SEVEN ORGANIZATIONS COMMITTED TO REDUCING PRE-TERM BIRTH AND INFANT MORTALITY IN THE VULNERABLE AUBURN GRESHAM NEIGHBORHOOD OF CHICAGO. THE COURAGE TO LOVE APPROACH IS ROOTED IN A REPORT BY THE COMMISSION ON INFANT MORTALITY OF THE HEALTH POLICY INSTITUTE OF THE JOINT CENTER FOR POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC STUDIES THAT MAINTAINS THAT SOCIAL COHESION IS A NECESSARY STRATEGY FOR IMPROVING BIRTH OUTCOMES. THE CTLC HAS INTERVIEWED OR GATHERED INPUT FROM ALMOST 150 COMMUNITY RESIDENTS DOCUMENTING THEIR EXPERIENCES OF STRESS, AND OF LOVE AND CARE IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. ECONOMIC PRESSURES AND COMMUNITY VIOLENCE WERE IDENTIFIED AS MOST STRESSFUL, AND FAMILY, CHURCH AND NEIGHBORS EMERGED AS THE CORE DRIVERS OF SOCIAL CONNECTION. THE NEXT STAGE OF THE PROJECT IS TO WORK WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO DESIGN AN APPROACH TO EXPAND EXISTING NETWORKS OF SOCIAL CONNECTION TO PROVIDE INTENTIONAL SUPPORT FOR PARENTS AND FAMILIES. GOAL C: EXAMINE AND ADDRESS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHERS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH INEQUITIES IN ADVOCATE COMMUNITIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, UNEMPLOYMENT, LACK OF EDUCATION, POVERTY, ENVIRONMENTAL INJUSTICE AND RACISM. SOCIONEEDS INDEX IN PREPARATION FOR THE 2014-2016 CHNA, ADVOCATE PURCHASED ACCESS TO A TOOL THAT COULD BE USED BY ALL OF ITS HOSPITALS TO IDENTIFY PRIORITY OPPORTUNITIES TO IMPACT THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH IN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE. INCLUDED IN THIS TOOL, DEVELOPED BY THE HEALTHY COMMUNITIES INSTITUTE, IS THE SOCIONEEDS INDEX. THE SOCIONEEDS INDEX IS A MEASURE OF SOCIOECONOMIC NEED THAT IS CORRELATED WITH POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES. INDICATORS FOR THE INDEX ARE WEIGHTED TO MAXIMIZE THE CORRELATION OF THE INDEX WITH PREMATURE DEATH RATES AND PREVENTABLE HOSPITALIZATION RATES. THIS INDEX COMBINES MULTIPLE SOCIOECONOMIC INDICATORS INTO A SINGLE COMPOSITE VALUE. AS A SINGLE INDICATOR, THE INDEX CAN SERVE AS A CONCISE WAY TO EXPLAIN WHICH AREAS ARE OF HIGHEST NEED. A MAP WAS THEN PREPARED FOR EACH HOSPITAL SERVICE AREA ENABLING THE COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCILS TO FOCUS PRIORITY SETTING AND PROGRAM PLANNING WITH COMMUNITIES AT HIGHER LEVELS OF SOCIOECONOMIC NEED. HEALTH IMPACT COLLABORATIVE OF COOK COUNTY IN 2015, COMMUNITY HEALTH LEADERS FROM ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE, PRESENCE HEALTH, THE ILLINOIS PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE (IPHA), THE CHICAGO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH (CDPH) AND THE COOK COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH (CCDPH) CAME TOGETHER TO FORM THE HEALTH IMPACT COLLABORATIVE OF COOK COUNTY (HICCC). EVENTUALLY THIS COLLABORATIVE INCLUDED 26 HOSPITALS, INCLUDING FIVE FROM ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE, SEVEN HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND NEARLY 100 COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS FROM ACROSS CHICAGO AND COOK COUNTY. THE PURPOSE OF HICCC WAS TO CREATE A MORE EFFECTIVE WAY TO ASSESS HEALTH NEEDS ACROSS CHICAGO AND COOK COUNTY AND THEN IMPLEMENT A SHARED ACTION PLAN TO MAXIMIZE HEALTH EQUITY AND WELLNESS. DURING 2016, THE COLLABORATIVE COMPLETED THREE COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENTS ONE EACH FOR THE NORTH, CENTRAL AND SOUTH REGIONS OF COOK COUNTY, INCLUDING CHICAGO. SEE: HTTP://HEALTHIMPACTCC.ORG/REPORTS2016/ THROUGH COLLABORATIVE PRIORITIZATION PROCESSES INVOLVING ALL HOSPITAL AND HEALTH DEPARTMENT MEMBERS OF THE COLLABORATIVE, AS WELL AS STAKEHOLDER ADVISORY GROUPS COMPRISED OF COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES, HICCC IDENTIFIED FOUR OVERARCHING FOCUS AREAS INCLUDING: -IMPROVING SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND STRUCTURAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH WHILE REDUCING SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC INEQUALITIES; -IMPROVING MENTAL HEALTH AND DECREASING SUBSTANCE ABUSE; -PREVENTING AND REDUCING CHRONIC DISEASE, WITH A FOCUS ON RISK FACTORS-NUTRITION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND TOBACCO; AND -INCREASING ACCESS TO CARE AND COMMUNITY RESOURCES. ALL OF THE HOSPITALS IN THE COLLABORATIVE AGREED TO INCLUDE THE FIRST FOCUS AREA-IMPROVING SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND STRUCTURAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH-AS A PRIORITY AREA FOR THEIR CHNA AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. OF THE FIVE ADVOCATE HOSPITALS IN COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS MASONIC MEDICAL CENTER AND TRINITY HOSPITAL CHOSE WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, CHRIST MEDICAL CENTER VIOLENCE PREVENTION, SOUTH SUBURBAN HOSPITAL HOUSING AND LUTHERAN GENERAL HOSPITAL YOUTH EMPLOYMENT. IN ADDITION, AN ACTION TEAM FOCUSING ON COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS WITHIN SOCIAL DETERMINANTS HAS BEGUN MEETING AND WILL CONTINUE IN 2017 TO DEVELOP MORE SPECIFIC IMPLEMENTATION PLANS. HEALTH CARE ANCHOR NETWORK IN DECEMBER 2016, ADVOCATE JOINED LEADERS FROM 40 HEALTH SYSTEMS IN WASHINGTON, DC, TO EXPLORE WHAT IT WOULD MEAN TO HARNESS THEIR SHARED ECONOMIC AND INTELLECTUAL POWER TO TRULY BENEFIT THEIR COMMUNITIES. "THE DISCUSSION CENTERED ON IDENTIFYING HOW ALL OF THESE ECONOMIC ASSETS (THE COMBINED PURCHASES OF $65 BILLION IN PURCHASED GOODS AND SERVICES, 1.4 MILLION EMPLOYEES AND $200 BILLION IN INVESTMENT AND ENDOWMENT PORTFOLIOS), COMBINED WITH CIVIC LEADERSHIP COULD BE DEPLOYED TO CREATE INCLUSIVE, EQUITABLE, HEALTHY AND ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES." (ADVANCING THE ANCHOR MISSION OF HEALTHCARE, DEMOCRACY COLLABORATIVE, 2017) ADVOCATE THEN OFFICIALLY JOINED OVER 20 OTHER SYSTEMS IN CREATING THE HEALTH CARE ANCHOR NETWORK WITH BACKBONE SUPPORT PROVIDED BY THE DEMOCRACY COLLABORATIVE, AND FUNDING PROVIDED BY THE MEMBER HEALTH SYSTEMS AND THE ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON FOUNDATION. THE COLLABORATIVE PLANS TO MEET TWICE PER YEAR WITH INTERIM WORK IN TEAMS ADDRESSING: -COLLABORATING WITH COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS; -DEFINING THE ORGANIZATIONAL IMPERATIVE; -GETTING THE INCENTIVES RIGHT; -ALIGNING APPROACHES FOR SCALE; -BUILDING THE EVIDENCE BASE; AND -ALIGNING WORK TO ADVANCE POLICY. CHICAGO ANCHORS FOR A STRONG ECONOMY (CASE) ADVOCATE IS ONE OF 16 ANCHOR INSTITUTIONS COMPRISING CASE. THE CENTRAL WORK OF THE COLLABORATIVE IS FOSTERING STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN ANCHOR INSTITUTIONS AND SMALL BUSINESSES THAT CAN SUPPLY THE NEEDS OF THESE INSTITUTIONS IN AN EFFORT TO BUILD ECONOMIC VITALITY ACROSS CHICAGOS NEIGHBORHOODS. HTTP://WWW.CHICAGOANCHORS.COM/. CASE IS FOCUSING ON FOUR MAJOR AREAS: -INCREASING LOCAL SPENDING BY PARTNERING WITH ANCHOR INSTITUTIONS TO INFUSE NEW REVENUE INTO THE REGIONAL ECONOMY; -FACILITATING NEW CONTRACTS BETWEEN LOCAL BUSINESSES AND ANCHOR INSTITUTIONS; -GROWING THE NETWORK BETWEEN SMALL BUSINESSES AND ANCHOR INSTITUTIONS; AND -FACILITATING TRAINING TO BUILD CAPACITY AMONG SMALL BUSINESSES IN CHICAGO COMMUNITIES. THE HEALTHCARE INSTITUTIONS IN CASE ARE FOCUSING ON SUPPLY CHAIN INITIATIVES ENGAGING LOCAL SUPPLIERS AND POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW SMALL BUSINESSES IN UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES THAT CAN SUPPLY HEALTH CARE PRODUCT NEEDS. RESULTS FOR THE OVERALL GROUP OF ANCHOR INSTITUTIONS INCLUDE 236 BUSINESSES ASSISTED RESULTING IN NEW CONTRACTS BETWEEN SMALL BUSINESSES AND ANCHORS; 180 NEW JOBS CREATED; AND $50.6 MILLION IN REVENUE COMMITTED TO SMALL BUSINESSES THROUGH MULTIYEAR ANCHOR CONTRACTS. ADVOCATE IS ALSO WORKING TO STRENGTHEN CORPORATE OPTIONS THROUGH HUMAN RE
ADVOCATE ASSOCIATES VOLUNTEERING IN THE COMMUNITY	ADVOCATES SYSTEM LEADERSHIP ALSO ENCOURAGES AND PROVIDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR ASSOCIATES (STAFF) AND PHYSICIANS TO DONATE TO, VOLUNTEER AT AND HELP RAISE FUNDS FOR COMMUNITY INITIATIVES. LAST YEAR, ADVOCATE PROMOTED AND SUPPORTED ASSOCIATE, PHYSICIAN AND HOSPITAL PARTICIPATION IN WALKS, RUNS AND RACES, INCLUDING DEVELOPING OFFICIAL ADVOCATE TEAMS FOR THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION, AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY (INCLUDING BOTH THE ACS WALK AND ROLL, AND MAKING STRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER EVENTS), ALZHEIMERS ASSOCIATION AND MARCH OF DIMES. IN 2016, 3,878 ADVOCATE ASSOCIATES (STAFF) WALKED IN THESE FUNDRAISERS AND $560,941 IN CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS WAS RAISED TO SUPPORT THESE NONPROFIT PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH SUCH EFFORTS. ADVOCATE ALSO HAD THE HONOR OF BEING DESIGNATED AS ONE OF THE TOP THREE FUNDRAISING HEALTH CARE COMPANIES IN THE NATION BY THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION IN 2016. IN ADDITION, ADVOCATES ASSOCIATES AND PHYSICIANS GENEROUSLY SUPPORT MULTIPLE LOCAL COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, PROGRAMS AND INITIATIVES, INCLUDING SOME OF ADVOCATES OWN SYSTEM-WIDE AND HOSPITAL-BASED COMMUNITY HEALTH PROGRAMS. IN 2016, ADVOCATE ASSOCIATES, NURSES AND PHYSICIANS CONTRIBUTED MORE THAN $2.4 MILLION, OF WHICH $1.5 MILLION WAS RAISED THROUGH THE ANNUAL ADVOCATE GIVING CAMPAIGN AS MANAGED BY THE SYSTEM LEVEL ADVOCATE CHARITABLE FOUNDATION. IN ADDITION, SYSTEM LEVEL LEADERS ARE SUPPORTIVE OF ASSOCIATES VOLUNTEERING DURING WORKTIME ON NONPROFIT COMMUNITY BOARDS, COMMITTEES, COUNCILS, TASK FORCES AND COALITIONS, USING THEIR TALENTS TO SUPPORT A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS. GOAL E: PROMOTE ACCOUNTABILITY FOR SYSTEM AND SITE ALIGNMENT BY INCREASING PROGRAM COORDINATION AND DEVELOPING STRONG GOVERNANCE RELATIONSHIPS. KEY TO DEVELOPING STRONG GOVERNANCE RELATIONSHIPS WAS ESTABLISHING SYSTEM BOARD ENGAGEMENT IN SUPPORT OF ADVOCATES COMMUNITY HEALTH VISION. AS THE FUNCTION ACCOUNTABLE FOR ADVOCATES SYSTEM-WIDE CHNA PROCESS AND BOTH CHNA AND STATE COMMUNITY BENEFITS REGULATORY REPORTING, THE COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT PROVIDES UPDATES AT LEAST ANNUALLY TO ADVOCATES BOARD OF DIRECTORS. THE MISSION AND SPIRITUAL CARE COMMITTEE OF THE ADVOCATE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ADOPTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH STRATEGY AND OBJECTIVES FOR THE SYSTEM, AND UPDATES ARE PROVIDED ANNUALLY OR MORE FREQUENTLY AS REQUESTED TO KEEP THE COMMITTEE INFORMED OF KEY HOSPITAL FOCUS AREAS AND CHNA IMPLEMENTATION PLAN PROGRESS. AS INDICATED EARLIER, ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE ESTABLISHED A COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT IN LATE 2015 AND THE DEPARTMENT WAS FULLY STAFFED AND OPERATING BY JANUARY 2016. THE DEPARTMENTS FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS WAS TO DEVELOP A MISSION, VALUES AND VISION (MVV) TO GUIDE ITS ACTIONS. THE DEPARTMENTS MISSION IS "TO TRANSFORM THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE BY PROMOTING PREVENTION AND ENSURING HEALTH EQUITY, THROUGH COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS AND EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES." THE DEPARTMENTS VALUES ENCOMPASS BEING "ACCOUNTABLE, COLLABORATIVE, EQUITABLE, INCLUSIVE, RESILIENT, SUSTAINABLE, TRANSFORMATIVE AND TRANSPARENT." THROUGH THESE ATTRIBUTES, THE VISION - "TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY TO TRANSFORM OUR ENVIRONMENT INTO COMMUNITIES WHERE HEALTH SERVICES ARE ACCESSIBLE AND INTEGRATED; PEOPLE ARE SUPPORTED; HEALTH EQUITY IS ACHIEVED AND RESULTS ARE MEASURABLE" WILL BE ACHIEVED. DURING 2016, HOSPITAL-SPECIFIC COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT BUDGETS WERE DEVELOPED BY THE SYSTEM VICE PRESIDENT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH AND FAITH OUTREACH TO SUPPORT THE HOSPITALS PLANS TO IMPLEMENT PROGRAM STRATEGIES AS OUTLINED IN THEIR 2016 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) REPORTS. COMMUNITY HEALTH STAFF SALARIES, ANNUAL CONTRACTED DATA ACCESS COSTS TO THE HEALTHY COMMUNITIES INSTITUTES CHNA TOOL, AND COSTS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE HEALTH IMPACT COLLABORATIVE OF COOK COUNTY (HICCC) WERE BUDGETED AT THE SYSTEM LEVEL AND IN PLACE FOR 2017. HOSPITAL GOVERNING COUNCILS ALSO KEY TO PROMOTING ACCOUNTABILITY FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH THROUGHOUT ADVOCATE WAS A SYSTEM LEVEL IMPLEMENTED PROCESS FOR ESTABLISHING HOSPITAL-BASED GOVERNANCE OVERSIGHT FOR EACH HOSPITALS CHNA PROCESS, INCLUDING REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE HOSPITAL CHNA REPORT AND HIGH LEVEL STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS KEY SELECTED NEEDS THAT RESULTED FROM THE PRIORITY-SETTING PROCESS. TO THAT END, THE SYSTEM EXPANDED THE ROLE OF THE HOSPITAL GOVERNING COUNCILS TO INCLUDE OVERSIGHT OF THE CHNA PROCESS AND APPROVAL OF THE HOSPITAL CHNA REPORTS AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES. THIS HAS RESULTED IN COMMUNITY HEALTH BEING STRONGLY INTEGRATED INTO ADVOCATE GOVERNANCE STRUCTURES. COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCILS COMPRISED OF COMMUNITY EXPERTS AND HOSPITAL LEADERS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED AT EACH HOSPITAL. THESE COUNCILS ARE CO-LED BY THE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY HEALTH LEADER AND A HOSPITAL GOVERNING COUNCIL MEMBER. A MINIMUM OF 50% OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS FOR THE 2016 CHNA REPORT CYCLE WERE COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES WITH A FOCUS ON PEOPLE WHO REPRESENTED UNDERSERVED AND VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. THE COUNCILS MET AT LEAST FOUR TIMES DURING THE YEAR. HOSPITAL COMMUNITY HEALTH STAFF ANALYZED AND PRESENTED PRIMARY AND SECONDARY COMMUNITY HEALTH DATA TO THE HOSPITALS COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCILS. THE COUNCIL MEMBERS IDENTIFIED THE HOSPITAL SERVICE AREAS SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS, SUBSEQUENTLY EMPLOYING A CONSENSUS BASED PRIORITY-SETTING PROCESS TO DETERMINE THE NEEDS UPON WHICH TO FOCUS. AS PART OF THE PRIORITIZATION PROCESS, THE COUNCILS SCANNED HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY CHALLENGES AND ASSETS, AS WELL AS POTENTIAL PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS THAT MIGHT RESULT IN A LARGER HEALTH IMPROVEMENT IMPACT. CHNA DATA ASSESSMENT RESULTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PRIORITIES WERE PRESENTED TO THE FULL HOSPITAL GOVERNING COUNCILS FOR ENDORSEMENT. ONCE THE HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PRIORITIES AND STRATEGIES WERE APPROVED BY THE HOSPITAL GOVERNING COUNCILS, THE RESULTS WERE PRESENTED TO THE MISSION AND SPIRITUAL CARE COMMITTEE OF THE ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, CHARGED WITH SYSTEM OVERSIGHT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH PLANNING, FOR FINAL APPROVAL. SERVICE LINE AND POPULATION HEALTH ENGAGEMENT TO SUPPORT FURTHER ALIGNMENT WITHIN ADVOCATE, THE SYSTEM COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT HAS ALSO WORKED TO ENGAGE SYSTEM DEFINED CLINICAL SERVICE LINES IN EXPANDING THEIR FOCUS ON COMMUNITY HEALTH. ADVOCATE IS VIEWED AS A LEADER IN THE POPULATION HEALTH MANAGEMENT ARENA. AN EARLY ADOPTER OF MANAGING CARE ACROSS POPULATIONS, ADVOCATE HAS SIGNIFICANT SUCCESS IMPROVING HEALTH OUTCOMES WHILE DECREASING OR MAINTAINING COST OF CARE DELIVERY. ADVOCATES COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT HAS INTENTIONALLY ALIGNED WITH ADVOCATE POPULATION HEALTH LEADERS AND ADVOCATE SERVICE LINES. THIS ALIGNMENT ASSURES THAT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITIES ADVOCATE SERVES AND OUR PATIENTS RECEIVE COMMUNITY-BASED INTERVENTIONS, AS WELL AS EDUCATION AND PROGRAMMING THAT ALIGNS WITH THEIR HEALTH NEEDS. THE FOLLOWING ARE EXAMPLES OF EDUCATION AND PROGRAMMING ALIGNED WITH POPULATION HEALTH AND SERVICE LINE DEVELOPMENT THAT REFLECT THIS INTEGRATED APPROACH. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH COUNCIL INTEGRATION STRATEGIES HAVE INCLUDED COMMUNITY HEALTH STAFF OFFERING MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID TO TARGETED COMMUNITY MEMBERS FOR THE PURPOSE OF REDUCING STIGMA, AND TRAINING COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO RECOGNIZE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES AND UNDERSTAND APPROPRIATE INTERVENTIONS. OVER 2,000 INDIVIDUALS HAVE BEEN TRAINED IN THE EIGHT-HOUR EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAM. ADDITIONALLY, ALL HOSPITALS PARTICIPATE IN LOCAL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE COLLABORATIVES.
