Explanation	THE MEDICAL CENTER IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION THAT HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED AS TAX-EXEMPT PURSUANT TO SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. THE MEDICAL CENTER APPLIES ACCOUNTING POLICIES THAT PRESCRIBE WHEN TO RECOGNIZE AND HOW TO MEASURE THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT EFFECTS OF INCOME TAX POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN ON ITS INCOME TAX RETURNS. THESE RULES REQUIRE MANAGEMENT TO EVALUATE THE LIKELIHOOD THAT, UPON EXAMINATION BY THE RELEVANT TAXING JURISDICTIONS, THOSE INCOME TAX POSITIONS WOULD BE SUSTAINED. BASED ON THAT EVALUATION, THE MEDICAL CENTER ONLY RECOGNIZES THE MAXIMUM BENEFIT OF EACH INCOME TAX POSITION THAT IS MORE THAN 50% LIKELY OF BEING SUSTAINED. TO THE EXTENT THAT ALL OR A PORTION OF THE BENEFITS OF AN INCOME TAX POSITION ARE NOT RECOGNIZED, A LIABILITY WOULD BE RECOGNIZED FOR THE UNRECOGNIZED BENEFITS, ALONG WITH ANY INTEREST AND PENALTIES THAT WOULD RESULT FROM DISALLOWANCE OF THE POSITION. SHOULD ANY SUCH PENALTIES AND INTEREST BE INCURRED, THEY WOULD BE RECOGNIZED AS OPERATING EXPENSES. BASED ON THE RESULTS OF MANAGEMENT'S EVALUATION, NO LIABILITY IS RECOGNIZED IN THE ACCOMPANYING BALANCE SHEET FOR UNRECOGNIZED INCOME TAX POSITIONS. FURTHER, NO INTEREST OR PENALTIES HAVE BEEN ACCRUED OR CHARGED TO EXPENSE AS OF JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015 OR FOR THE YEARS THEN ENDED. THE MEDICAL CENTER'S TAX RETURNS ARE SUBJECT TO POSSIBLE EXAMINATION BY THE TAXING AUTHORITIES. FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES, THE TAX RETURNS ESSENTIALLY REMAIN OPEN FOR POSSIBLE EXAMINATION FOR A PERIOD OF THREE YEARS AFTER THE RESPECTIVE FILING DEADLINES OF THOSE RETURNS. TANNER MEDICAL GROUP IS PART OF A TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. THE AFFILIATED BUSINESS SERVICES PROVIDED ARE, HOWEVER, SUBJECT TO UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME TAXES AND A FORM 990-T, EXEMPT ORGANIZATION BUSINESS INCOME TAX RETURN IS FILED FOR THESE SERVICES. AS OF 2016 AND 2015, TANNER MEDICAL GROUP HAS NOT RECORDED INCOME TAX EXPENSE DUE TO NET OPERATING LOSSES.	ExplanationTxt

QUANTITATIVE DATA INPUT INCLUDES PRIMARY RESEARCH-COMMUNITY SURVEYS WITH 1,011 TOTAL RESPONDENTS AND A SUB-SET CANCER PATIENT SURVEY WITH 103 RESPONDENTS-AND SECONDARY RESEARCH (VITAL STATISTICS AND OTHER EXISTING HEALTH-RELATED DATA). THESE QUANTITATIVE COMPONENTS ALLOW FOR COMPARISON TO BENCHMARK DATA AT THE STATE AND NATIONAL LEVELS. QUALITATIVE DATA INPUT INCLUDES PRIMARY RESEARCH GATHERED THROUGH FOUR COMMUNITY FOCUS GROUPS (CARROLL COUNTY, HARALSON COUNTY, HEARD COUNTY AND VILLA RICA) HELD IN MARCH 2016 AND APRIL 2016 THAT GATHERED INPUT FROM A TOTAL OF 34 AREA COMMUNITY LEADERS. A COMMUNITY LISTENING SESSION WAS ALSO HELD IN MARCH 2016 THAT GATHERED INPUT FROM 91 AREA RESIDENTS. TANNER PARTNERED WITH THE GEORGIA HEALTH POLICY CENTER AT GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY TO CONDUCT THE COMMUNITY FOCUS GROUPS AND COMMUNITY LISTENING SESSION. THIS DATA WAS USED TO DIVERSIFY THE TYPES OF INFORMATION GATHERED AND TO ENGAGE A DIVERSE GROUP OF INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS TO INFORM THE CHNA. THE FOCUS GROUPS AND LISTENING SESSION WERE COMPRISED OF AREA RESIDENTS, PARTNERS AND PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL, INCLUDING THOSE WITH SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE OF, OR EXPERTISE IN, PUBLIC HEALTH. MEMBERS OF MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, LOW-INCOME AND MINORITY POPULATIONS SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL, INDIVIDUALS, OR ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTING THE INTERESTS OF SUCH POPULATIONS ALSO PROVIDED INPUT. FOR FURTHER PUBLIC HEALTH INPUT, THE CHNA WAS REVIEWED BY REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC) AND THE GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH (DPH), INCLUDING THE DPH'S COMMISSIONER AND STATE HEALTH OFFICER.

CONCERNS WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE CHNA REGARDING LACK OF DENTAL SERVICES IN THE WEST GEORGIA REGION. WHILE NOT DIRECTLY ADDRESSED IN TANNER'S IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY, TANNER WILL CONTINUE TO PARTNER WITH LOCAL DENTISTS AND ORAL SURGEONS TO PROVIDE URGENT DENTAL CARE IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND CLINICS, ALONG WITH WORKING COLLABORATIVELY WITH PROVIDERS, SOCIAL SERVICE AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO PROMOTE ROUTINE DENTAL CARE. TANNER ALSO PROVIDES FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO A LOCAL INDIGENT CLINIC, THE RAPHA CLINIC, WHICH PROVIDES DENTAL CARE TO THOSE WITHOUT INSURANCE OR THE MEANS TO AFFORD SUCH CARE. LACK OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION WAS IDENTIFIED AS A FACTOR IMPACTING COMMUNITY HEALTH. WHILE TANNER IS COMMITTED TO FINDING SOLUTIONS TO LIMIT TRANSPORTATION NEEDS IN THE REGION, PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION IS OUT OF THE SCOPE OF THE ORGANIZATION'S RESOURCES AND WILL NOT BE ADDRESSED AS A PRIMARY NEED IN THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY, BUT WILL BE IMPACTED THROUGH THE ACCESS TO CARE PRIORITY. TANNER WILL CONTINUE TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH COUNTY AND CITY GOVERNMENTS, SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES AND MORE TO EVALUATE AND IDENTIFY OPPORTUNITIES TO INCREASE ACCESS TO TRANSPORTATION SERVICES IN THE REGION. THE 2016 CHNA AND RELATED IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY IS LOCATED ON TANNER'S WEB SITE AT: HTTP://WWW.TANNER.ORG/ABOUT-US/THE-COMMUNITY/COMMUNITY- HEALTH-NEEDS-ASSESSMENTS
