SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 3C	The income based criteria used to determine eligibility is per new jersey administrative code 10:52 sub chapters 11, 12 and 13, and based upon the 2015 poverty guidelines (department of health and senior services). Fpg are included in the criteria for determining eligibility for charity and discounted care. All self-pay patients receive discounted rates. FPG are incorporated into the NJ Charity Care formula for NJ Charity Care qualifications.
SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 6A	NOT APPLICABLE.
SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 7G	NO COSTS RELATING TO SUBSIDIZED HEALTHCARE SERVICES ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO ANY PHYSICIAN CLINICS.
SCHEDULE H, PART I, QUESTION 7	WORKSHEET 2 WAS USED FOR THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO.
SCHEDULE H, PART II	Community building activities undertaken by this organization improve the medical and socioeconomic well-being of the communities in our care. This is accomplished through service on state and regional advocacy committees and boards, volunteerism with local community-based non-profit advocacy groups, and participation in conferences and other educational activities to promote understanding of the root causes of health concerns. This organization provides educational materials, conducts community health fairs and holds health education seminars and outreach sessions for its patients and for community providers. Presentations are provided by physicians, nurses and other healthcare professionals.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A; QUESTION 2, 3 & 4	BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED USING THE PROVIDERS' BAD DEBT EXPENSE FROM ITS AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. RARITAN BAY HEALTH SERVICES CORPORATION AND AFFILIATES ("SYSTEM"), INCLUDING ITS HOSPITALS AND SUBSIDIARIES, PREPARE AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE SYSTEM'S ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS (BAD DEBT EXPENSE) METHODOLOGY AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED ACROSS ALL HOSPITAL AFFILIATES. THE ATTACHED TEXT WAS OBTAINED FROM THE FOOTNOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER. PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE/ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE RESULT FROM HEALTHCARE SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE MEDICAL CENTER. ADDITIONS TO THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS RESULT FROM THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF AS UNCOLLECTIBLE ARE DEDUCTED FROM THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. THE AMOUNT OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS IS BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS, BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN MEDICARE AND MEDICAID HEALTH COVERAGE AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. CHARITY CARE THE MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA DEFINED BY THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH (DOH) WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. BECAUSE THE MEDICAL CENTER DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, THEY ARE NOT REPORTED AS REVENUE. THE MEDICAL CENTER'S RECORDS IDENTIFY AND MONITOR THE LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE IT PROVIDES AND INCLUDE THE AMOUNT OF CHARGES FOREGONE FOR SERVICES AND SUPPLIES FURNISHED. THE AMOUNT OF CHARITY CARE PROVIDED UNDER DOH GUIDELINES DURING THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014, BASED ON AN ESTIMATE OF THE MEDICAL CENTER'S COSTS, WAS APPROXIMATELY $12,820,155 AND $16,182,115, RESPECTIVELY. THE COSTS OF CHARITY CARE ARE DERIVED FROM BOTH ESTIMATED AND ACTUAL DATA. THE ESTIMATED COST OF CHARITY CARE INCLUDES THE DIRECT AND INDIRECT COST OF PROVIDING SUCH SERVICES AND IS ESTIMATED UTILIZING THE MEDICAL CENTER'S RATIO OF COST TO GROSS CHARGES, WHICH IS THEN MULTIPLIED BY THE GROSS UNCOMPENSATED CHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING CARE TO CHARITY PATIENTS. THE NEW JERSEY HEALTH CARE SUBSIDY FUNDS WERE ESTABLISHED FOR VARIOUS PURPOSES INCLUDING THE DISTRIBUTION OF CHARITY CARE PAYMENTS TO HOSPITALS STATEWIDE. THE MEDICAL CENTER HAS RECORDED THE FOLLOWING IN NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE DURING 2015 AND 2014: 2015 2014 Charity Care Subsidy $ 12,845,493 $ 12,344,994 Delivery service reform incentive payment 2,194,564 2,069,294 ------------ ------------- $ 15,040,057 $14,414,288 ============ ============ THE MEDICAL CENTER HAS RECEIVED APPROXIMATELY $7.0 MILLION IN SUBSIDIES FOR DISTRIBUTIONS SCHEDULED THROUGH JUNE 30, 2016. THE AMOUNTS OF SUBSIDIES AND DISTRIBUTIONS SUBSEQUENT TO JUNE 30, 2016 ARE PRESENTLY NOT DETERMINED. EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2014, THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY REPLACED THE HOSPITAL RELIEF SUBSIDY FUND WITH A NEW PAYMENT MECHANISM REFERRED TO AS THE DELIVERY SYSTEM REFORM INCENTIVE PAYMENT POOL (THE POOL). THE POOL IS AVAILABLE TO CERTAIN HOSPITALS THAT ARE ABLE TO ESTABLISH PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT ACTIVITIES IN ONE OF EIGHT SPECIFIED CLINICAL IMPROVEMENT AREAS.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 8	MEDICARE COSTS WERE DERIVED FROM THE 2015 MEDICARE COST REPORT. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THE ORGANIZATION FEELS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. AS OUTLINED MORE FULLY BELOW THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT THESE SERVICES AND RELATED COSTS PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AND ARE RENDERED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITABLE TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSES AND MISSION IN PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUAL'S IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY AND CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD PROMULGATED BY THE IRS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IS THE CURRENT STANDARD FOR A HOSPITAL FOR RECOGNITION AS A TAX-EXEMPT AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC") 501(C)(3). THE ORGANIZATION IS RECOGNIZED AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER 501(C)(3) OF THE IRC. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO DEFINITION IN THE TAX CODE FOR THE TERM "CHARITABLE" A REGULATION PROMULGATED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY PROVIDES SOME GUIDANCE AND STATES THAT "[T]HE TERM CHARITABLE IS USED IN SECTION 501(C)(3) IN ITS GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE,PROVIDES EXAMPLES OF CHARITABLE PURPOSES, INCLUDING THE RELIEF OF THE POOR OR UNPRIVILEGED; THE PROMOTION OF SOCIAL WELFARE; AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION, RELIGION, AND SCIENCE. NOTE IT DOES NOT EXPLICITLY ADDRESS THE ACTIVITIES OF HOSPITALS. IN THE ABSENCE OF EXPLICIT STATUTORY OR REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS APPLYING THE TERM "CHARITABLE" TO HOSPITALS, IT HAS BEEN LEFT TO THE IRS TO DETERMINE THE CRITERIA HOSPITALS MUST MEET TO QUALIFY AS IRC 501(C)(3) CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS. THE ORIGINAL STANDARD WAS KNOWN AS THE CHARITY CARE STANDARD. THIS STANDARD WAS REPLACED BY THE IRS WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD WHICH IS THE CURRENT STANDARD. CHARITY CARE STANDARD IN 1956, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 56-185, WHICH ADDRESSED THE REQUIREMENTS HOSPITALS NEEDED TO MEET IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR IRC 501(C)(3) STATUS. ONE OF THESE REQUIREMENTS IS KNOWN AS THE "CHARITY CARE STANDARD." UNDER THE STANDARD, A HOSPITAL HAD TO PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY FOR IT. A HOSPITAL THAT EXPECTED FULL PAYMENT DID NOT, ACCORDING TO THE RULING, PROVIDE CHARITY CARE BASED ON THE FACT THAT SOME PATIENTS ULTIMATELY FAILED TO PAY. THE RULING EMPHASIZED THAT A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE DID NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THAT A HOSPITAL HAD FAILED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT SINCE THAT LEVEL COULD REFLECT ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE SUCH CARE. THE RULING ALSO NOTED THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED COMMUNITY HOSPITALS WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY AS CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY, AND A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE WOULD NOT AFFECT A HOSPITAL'S EXEMPT STATUS IF IT WAS DUE TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY'S LACK OF CHARITABLE DEMANDS. COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IN 1969, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH "REMOVE[D]" FROM REVENUE RULING 56-185 "THE REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO CARING FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT RATES BELOW COST." UNDER THE STANDARD DEVELOPED IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE "COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD," HOSPITALS ARE JUDGED ON WHETHER THEY PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF A BROAD CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE RULING INVOLVED A HOSPITAL THAT ONLY ADMITTED INDIVIDUALS WHO COULD PAY FOR THE SERVICES (BY THEMSELVES, PRIVATE INSURANCE, OR PUBLIC PROGRAMS SUCH AS MEDICARE), BUT OPERATED A FULL-TIME EMERGENCY ROOM THAT WAS OPEN TO EVERYONE. THE IRS RULED THAT THE HOSPITAL QUALIFIED AS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION BECAUSE IT PROMOTED THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE IN ITS COMMUNITY. THE IRS REASONED THAT BECAUSE THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH WAS A CHARITABLE PURPOSE ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY, IT FELL WITHIN THE "GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE" OF THE TERM "CHARITABLE," AS REQUIRED BY TREAS. REG. 1.501(C)(3)-1(D)(2). THE IRS RULING STATED THAT THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH, LIKE THE RELIEF OF POVERTY AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RELIGION, IS ONE OF THE PURPOSES IN THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY THAT IS DEEMED BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE EVEN THOUGH THE CLASS OF BENEFICIARIES ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A DIRECT BENEFIT FROM ITS ACTIVITIES DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS INDIGENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDED THAT THE CLASS IS NOT SO SMALL THAT ITS RELIEF IS NOT OF BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE IRS CONCLUDED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS "PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF A CLASS OF PERSONS THAT IS BROAD ENOUGH TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY" BECAUSE ITS EMERGENCY ROOM WAS OPEN TO ALL AND IT PROVIDED CARE TO EVERYONE WHO COULD PAY, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT. OTHER CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HOSPITAL THAT THE IRS HIGHLIGHTED INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING: ITS SURPLUS FUNDS WERE USED TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, EXPAND HOSPITAL FACILITIES, AND ADVANCE MEDICAL TRAINING, EDUCATION, AND RESEARCH; IT WAS CONTROLLED BY A BOARD OF TRUSTEES THAT CONSISTED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS; AND HOSPITAL MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES WERE AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ("AHA") FEELS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THIS ORGANIZATION AGREES WITH THE AHA POSITION. AS OUTLINED IN THE AHA LETTER TO THE IRS DATED AUGUST 21, 2007 WITH RESPECT TO THE FIRST PUBLISHED DRAFT OF THE NEW FORM 990 AND SCHEDULE H, THE AHA FELT THAT THE IRS SHOULD INCORPORATE THE FULL VALUE OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT THAT HOSPITALS PROVIDE BY COUNTING MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: - PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY AND SERVING MEDICARE PATIENTS IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD. - MEDICARE, LIKE MEDICAID, DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE. RECENTLY, MEDICARE REIMBURSES HOSPITALS ONLY 92 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR THEY SPEND TO TAKE CARE OF MEDICARE PATIENTS. THE MEDICARE PAYMENT ADVISORY COMMISSION ("MEDPAC") IN ITS MARCH 2007 REPORT TO CONGRESS CAUTIONED THAT UNDERPAYMENT WILL GET EVEN WORSE, WITH MARGINS REACHING A 10-YEAR LOW AT NEGATIVE 5.4 PERCENT. - MANY MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 46 PERCENT OF MEDICARE SPENDING IS FOR BENEFICIARIES WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MANY OF THOSE MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID -- SO CALLED ELIGIBLES." THERE IS EVERY COMPELLING PUBLIC POLICY REASON TO TREAT MEDICARE AND MEDICAID UNDERPAYMENTS SIMILARLY FOR PURPOSES OF A HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND INCLUDE THESE COSTS ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT MUST BE SHOULDERED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE COMMUNITY'S ELDERLY AND POOR. THESE UNDERPAYMENTS REPRESENT A REAL COST OF SERVING THE COMMUNITY AND SHOULD COUNT AS A QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT. BOTH THE AHA AND THIS ORGANIZATION ALSO FEEL THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT IS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. LIKE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT (SHORTFALLS), THERE ALSO ARE COMPELLING REASONS THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT SHOULD BE COUNTED AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS FOLLOWS: - A SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, WHO, FOR MANY REASONS, DECLINE TO COMPLETE THE FORMS REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY FOR HOSPITALS' CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. A 2006 CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ("CBO") REPORT, NONPROFIT HOSPITALS AND THE PROVISION OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS, CITED TWO STUDIES INDICATING THAT "THE GREAT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT WAS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WITH INCOMES BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE." - THE REPORT ALSO NOTED THAT A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. UNLIKE BAD DEBT IN OTHER INDUSTRIES, HOSPITAL BAD DEBT IS COMPLICATED BY THE FACT THAT HOSPITALS FOLLOW THEIR MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TREAT EVERY PATIENT THAT COMES THROUGH THEIR EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. PATIENTS WHO HAVE OUTSTANDING BILLS ARE NOT TURNED AWAY, UNLIKE OTHER INDUSTRIES. BAD DEBT IS FURTHER COMPLICATED BY THE AUDITING INDUSTRY'S STANDARDS ON REPORTING CHARITY CARE. MANY PATIENTS CANNOT OR DO NOT PROVIDE THE NECESSARY, EXTENSIVE DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED TO BE DEEMED CHARITY CARE BY AUDITORS. AS A RESULT, ROUGHLY 40% OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. - THE CBO CONCLUDED THAT ITS FINDINGS "SUPPORT THE VALIDITY OF THE USE OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE [BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE] AS A MEASURE OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS" ASSUMING THE FINDINGS ARE GENERALIZABLE NATIONWIDE;
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 9B	ACCOUNTS CONSIDERED TO BE CHARITY CARE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, BUT RATHER, ACCOUNTED FOR AS AN ALLOWANCE. IT IS THE POLICY OF RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER, TO TREAT ALL PATIENTS EQUALLY REGARDLESS OF INSURANCE AND THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. FOR ACCOUNTS DETERMINED TO BE "SELF-PAYOR ACCOUNTS WITH BALANCE AFTER PRIMARY INSURANCE PAYMENTS, THE COLLECTION POLICY REQUIRES: SENDING THREE STATEMENTS, A MINIMUM OF ONE PRE-COLLECTION LETTER, TELEPHONE CONTACT OR AT THE DISCRETION OF THE ACCOUNT REPRESENTATIVE AND/OR SUPERVISOR. Patients receive monthly data mailers and when possible a phone call prior to being placed with a collection agency. THE FACILITY ALSO HAS A CHARITY CARE ACCESS POLICY TO ASSURE PATIENTS ARE PROVIDED WITH CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE DETERMINED BY STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS. IT IS THE POLICY TO INFORM ALL PATIENTS DEEMED SELF-PAY OF THE APPROPRIATE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE. PATIENTS APPLYING FOR CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE WILL BE FINANCIALLY SCREENED BY A RESOURCE ADVISOR TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY ACCORDING TO STATE AND FEDERAL GUIDELINES AND WILL BE INFORMED OF DOCUMENTATION NEEDED TO COMPLETE A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION. PATIENTS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE WILL BE FINANCIALLY COUNSELED FOR ALL OTHER OPTIONS. QUALIFIED PATIENTS WILL BE REFERRED TO ALL APPROPRIATE AGENCIES OR PROGRAMS TO MEET OTHER FINANCIAL NEEDS. AT THE TIME OF THE PATIENT VISIT AND PART OF THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AT THE FACILITY, THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO PATIENTS: - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE INCLUDING MEDICAID AND SSI; - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR THE NEW JERSEY HOSPITAL CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM; AND, - FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS INCLUDING: 1. CASH/CREDIT CARD (AMERICAN EXPRESS, DISCOVER, VISA, MASTERCARD), 2. LOW INTEREST LOAN PROGRAM, OR 3. FLEXIBLE PAYMENT PLANS. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE OPTIONS, THE FACILITY HAS ESTABLISHED A SELF-PAY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM FOR OUR UNINSURED PATIENTS THAT DO NOT QUALIFY FOR MEDICAID OR THE NEW JERSEY HOSPITAL CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THE SELF-PAY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM RATES ARE REFLECTIVE OF MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT, AS REFERRED BY THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI; QUESTION 2	IN ADDITION TO THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE 501(R) COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT INFORMATION OUTLINED IN FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER CONDUCTS A REVIEW OF KEY FACTOR INFORMATION ANNUALLY WHICH INCLUDES: A REVIEW OF HEALTHCARE UTILIZATION OF ITS SERVICE AREA POPULATION BY SERVICES (UROLOGY, CARDIOLOGY, OBSTETRICS, ETC.) FOR DETERMINING INCREASED OR DECREASED HEALTH NEEDS; HEALTHCARE SERVICE ESTIMATES AND FORECASTS (BOTH INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT); ASSESSMENTS OF LOCAL DEMOGRAPHIC AND SOCIOECONOMIC INFORMATION; AND, A REVIEW OF HEALTH STATUS/NEEDS ASSESSMENTS AND STUDIES CONDUCTED BY EXTERNAL PARTIES (HEALTH RESEARCH AND EDUCATION TRUST IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION). THIS ORGANIZATION CONDUCTS AN EXTENSIVE SERVICE AREA POPULATION PHYSICIAN NEED STUDY (BY PRIMARY AND SPECIALTY) EVERY THREE TO FIVE YEARS. SPECIFIC SPECIALTY NEEDS ARE CONDUCTED FOR IDENTIFIED GAPS IN SERVICE. THESE REVIEWS INFORM MEDICAL STAFF DEVELOPMENT AT THE MEDICAL CENTER TO ASSURE RESPONSIVENESS TO IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY NEEDS. IN ADDITION, THIS ORGANIZATION WORKS WITH LOCAL PROVIDERS TO PLAN AND DISCUSS HEALTH NEEDS OF THE POPULATION. ONE FORUM IS A QUARTERLY REGIONAL COMMUNITY ADVISORY BOARD HOSTED BY A LOCAL HEALTHCARE SYSTEM WITH REPRESENTATION FROM LOCAL POLITICIANS, LOCAL COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS, EMERGENCY HEALTH PROVIDERS AND OTHER COMMUNITY HEALTH LEADERS. CENTERS, EMERGENCY HEALTH PROVIDERS AND OTHER COMMUNITY HEALTH LEADERS.

CORE FORM, PART III; STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS	BACKGROUND ========== RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER ("RBMC") IS A GENERAL MEDICAL AND SURGICAL HOSPITAL. RBMC IS RECOGNIZED BY THE IRS AS AN INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 501(C)(3) TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION. PURSUANT TO ITS CHARITABLE PURPOSES, RBMC PROVIDES MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUALS IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER REGARDLESS OF RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY. MOREOVER, RBMC OPERATES CONSISTENTLY WITH THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA OUTLINED IN IRS REVENUE RULING 69-545: 1) RBMC PROVIDES MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUALS REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY, INCLUDING CHARITY CARE, SELF-PAY, MEDICARE AND MEDICAID PATIENTS; 2) RBMC OPERATES AN ACTIVE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT FOR ALL PERSONS; WHICH IS OPEN 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK, 365 DAYS PER YEAR; 3) RBMC MAINTAINS AN OPEN MEDICAL STAFF, WITH PRIVILEGES AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS; 4) CONTROL OF RBMC RESTS WITH ITS BOARD OF DIRECTORS; WHICH IS COMPRISED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS AND OTHER PROMINENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY; AND 5) SURPLUS FUNDS ARE USED TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF PATIENT CARE, EXPAND AND RENOVATE FACILITIES AND ADVANCE MEDICAL CARE, PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES. HISTORY ======= PERTH AMBOY, THE FIRST INCORPORATED CITY IN NEW JERSEY (1718) WAS FERTILE SOIL FOR THE RAPID INDUSTRIALIZATION THAT MARKED THE 19TH CENTURY. WITH ITS HARBOR AND WATERWAYS, SHIPPING, FISHING AND FACTORIES BEGAN SPRINGING UP; AND, AS FACTORIES WERE BUILT, WORKERS WERE IN HIGH DEMAND. SINGLE MEN ENGAGED IN PERILOUS WORK IS A DANGEROUS COMBINATION. BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ONE TO CARE FOR THESE MEN AND INJURIES WERE ON THE RISE, INTERESTED CITIZENS AND CITY LEADERSHIP MET IN 1888 TO DISCUSS PLANS FOR BUILDING AN EMERGENCY HOSPITAL. FROM THIS MEETING EMERGED A TENTATIVE RESOLUTION TO SEEK FUNDS - FUNDS TO BUILD A 12-BED HOSPITAL WHICH, THOUGH PERHAPS UNIMAGINABLE AT THE TIME, WOULD LATER BECOME RBMC, A TWO-CAMPUS 501-BED HEALTHCARE FACILITY SERVING CENTRAL NEW JERSEY. AFTER FOURTEEN YEARS OF FALSE STARTS AND CAPITAL DEFICITS, PERTH AMBOY CITY HOSPITAL WAS DEDICATED ON MAY 2, 1902. YEARS OF TIRELESS FUNDRAISING AND PERSONAL SACRIFICE BY WOMEN'S GROUPS, LOCAL BENEFACTORS, ETHNIC GROUPS AND CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS BUILT AND FURNISHED WHAT WAS CONSIDERED A STATE-OF-THE-ART FACILITY AT THE TURN OF THE CENTURY. A SIX-MEMBER MEDICAL STAFF WAS APPOINTED AND A NURSE MATRON AND ASSISTANT WERE PUT IN CHARGE. FIVE WEEKS LATER PERTH AMBOY CITY HOSPITAL HAD TREATED ITS FIRST 12 PATIENTS. ONE YEAR LATER THE HOSPITAL HAD ITS OWN SCHOOL OF NURSING. BY 1913, THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS REALIZED THAT 12 BEDS COULD NO LONGER SUPPORT THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE CITY'S BURGEONING POPULATION. FROM THAT TIME UNTIL RIGHT BEFORE THE ONSLAUGHT OF THE GREAT DEPRESSION, PERTH AMBOY CITY HOSPITAL EXPERIENCED TREMENDOUS GROWTH. ADDITIONS MADE ROOM FOR MATERNITY SERVICES, AN ADVANCED LABORATORY AND X-RAY DEPARTMENT, ADDITIONAL OPERATING ROOM SPACE AND EXPANDED LIVING QUARTERS FOR THE NURSE RESIDENTS. DESPITE THE INCREASING NEED FOR ADDITIONAL TREATMENT SPACE, DECEMBER 7, 1941 HALTED PLANS FOR EXPANSION. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE WAR IN 1945, PERTH AMBOY CITY HOSPITAL TREATED ITS FIRST PATIENT USING A NEW WONDER DRUG, PENICILLIN, WHICH WAS BROUGHT TO THE HOSPITAL UNDER POLICE ESCORT. WAR-DELAYED ADDITIONS WERE THEN RAPIDLY UNDERTAKEN DURING THE NEXT 15 YEARS, SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASING BED CAPACITY AND THE SPACE NECESSARY TO OFFER ADVANCED TECHNIQUES THAT WERE ONCE ONLY AVAILABLE IN MAJOR MEDICAL CENTERS. BY THE 1960'S, THE STAGE WAS SET FOR THE HOSPITAL TO ENTER INTO AN ERA OF "FIRSTS," WHERE INNOVATION WAS FUELED BY CONTINUING RENOVATION AND EXPANSION. IN 1964, SURGEONS PERFORMED ONE OF THE FIRST SUCCESSFUL PACEMAKER IMPLANTS. BY 1968, SCIENTISTS IN THE HOSPITAL'S INSTITUTE OF LABORATORY MEDICINE HAD LINKED A SMALL REFRIGERATOR SIZED COMPUTER TO A SET OF AUTOMATIC ANALYZING MACHINES AND CAME UP WITH A COMPLETELY NEW KIND OF HOSPITAL SERVICE...COMPUTERIZED AUTOMATION. DURING THE 1970'S THE HOSPITAL FOUND ITSELF AT THE FOREFRONT OF CARDIAC MEDICINE, RECORDING NEW JERSEY'S FIRST SUCCESSFUL IMPLANT OF THE RECHARGEABLE PACEMAKER IN 1974 AND USING ONE OF THE VERY FIRST CAT SCANNERS IN MIDDLESEX COUNTY IN 1979. PATIENTS AND PHYSICIANS INCREASINGLY GAINED EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO WORLD-CLASS HEALTHCARE RIGHT IN THEIR OWN BACKYARD. BY 1976, A NEW BUILDING PROGRAM WAS IN THE WORKS. EXTENSIVE CONSTRUCTION PLANS WERE CREATED FOR PERTH AMBOY, BUT THE MOST AMBITIOUS PART OF THE PROGRAM WAS THE BUILDING OF AN 80-BED AFFILIATE HOSPITAL ON A 41-ACRE LOT IN OLD BRIDGE TOWNSHIP. OLD BRIDGE REGIONAL HOSPITAL WAS COMPLETED IN JUST LESS THAN TWO YEARS, OPENING ITS DOORS ON JANUARY 2, 1979. THROUGH ITS AFFILIATION WITH ITS PERTH AMBOY SISTER FACILITY, FOR THE FIRST TIME RESIDENTS SOUTH OF THE RARITAN RIVER COULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL OF THE ADVANCED MEDICAL SERVICES AND TECHNIQUES USUALLY RESERVED FOR HOSPITALS IN URBAN CENTERS. RBMC HEALTH SERVICES CORPORATION, THE NEW NAME FOR THE COMBINED HOSPITALS IN OLD BRIDGE AND PERTH AMBOY (LATER CHANGED SIMPLY TO RBMC), SAW ADVANCEMENTS IN SURGERY AND NON-SURGICAL THERAPIES, DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, EDUCATION AND CONTINUED PHYSICAL EXPANSION THROUGHOUT THE 1980'S. IN FACT, OLD BRIDGE REGIONAL HOSPITAL BECAME THE HOME TO THE FIRST LASER KNEE SURGERY PERFORMED IN NEW JERSEY IN 1988. THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE OLD BRIDGE MEDICAL ARTS BUILDING THEN BROUGHT A NEW LEVEL OF CONVENIENCE TO PHYSICIANS AND PATIENTS, FURTHER UPHOLDING RBMC'S PLEDGE TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST QUALITY HEALTHCARE TO ITS MIDDLESEX COUNTY FAMILY. NEVER RESTING ON ITS LAURELS, IN 1990 THE HOSPITAL SUBMITTED A CERTIFICATE OF NEED TO THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY DETAILING ITS PLANS FOR EXPANSION. SIGNIFICANTLY NAMED, "RENEWAL 2000," THE REQUEST OUTLINED AN AGGRESSIVE $53.6 MILLION RECONSTRUCTION PLAN THAT WOULD AFFECT MOST KEY SERVICE AREAS IN PERTH AMBOY, INCLUDING BUILDING A NEW OUTPATIENT CENTER AND ADDING A PATIENT FLOOR TO THE OLD BRIDGE CAMPUS. WHILE EXTENSIVE RECONSTRUCTION CHANGED THE FACE OF BOTH HOSPITALS, PATIENT CARE PROGRESSED AT OPTIMUM LEVELS. PARTICIPATION IN ADVANCED CLINICAL TRIALS INCREASED AND AFFILIATIONS WERE DEVELOPED WITH ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL, THE CANCER INSTITUTE OF NEW JERSEY, THE EASTERN COOPERATIVE ONCOLOGY GROUP AND THE ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON HEALTH NETWORK. INCREASED SPECIALIZED SERVICES SUCH AS THE MARION TANZMAN DIABETES CENTER, THE JACQUELINE M. AND ROBERT M. WILENTZ CANCER CENTER, THE CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION LABORATORY, THE BIRTHING CENTER AND CENTER FOR WOMEN WERE BUT A FEW OF THE MANY EXCITING HAPPENINGS TO ADD TO RBMC'S GROWING LIST OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS. AFTER RENEWAL 2000 WAS COMPLETED IN 1997, POST-CONSTRUCTION RELAXATION WAS SHORT-LIVED AS THE HOSPITAL UNVEILED ITS NEW PLANS FOR IMPROVING EMERGENCY CARE, CALLED "PROJECT ER." SO AS NOT TO SACRIFICE PATIENT CARE, PROJECT ER WAS DESIGNED AS A MULTIPHASE CONSTRUCTION, RENOVATION AND REVITALIZATION OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT SERVICES AT BOTH HOSPITALS. 2001 SAW THE FINAL STAGES OF RENOVATIONS PROGRESSING IN PERTH AMBOY, AND THE SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF THE OLD BRIDGE DIVISION EXPANSION. AND, ALTHOUGH IT SHOULD BE NO SURPRISE, WITH PROJECT ER FINISHED, PLANS FOR FUTURE EXPANSION ARE ON THE DRAWING BOARD. LOOKING BACK OVER THE MORE THAN 100 YEARS THAT RBMC HAS BEEN BRINGING THE LATEST ADVANCEMENTS IN HEALTHCARE TO CENTRAL NEW JERSEY IN A SUPPORTIVE AND CARING ATMOSPHERE, IT IS NO WONDER, IN 2014READERS OF THE HOME NEWS TRIBUNE AGAIN VOTED US THE "BEST HOSPITAL IN CENTRAL NEW JERSEY." RBMC IS A STATE-DESIGNATED PRIMARY STROKE CENTER AND IS RANKED AMONG THE NATION'S TOP TEN PERCENT OF HOSPITALS FOR THE CARE OF STROKE PATIENTS, A POSITION THE HOSPITAL HAS HELD FOR FIVE CONSECUTIVE YEARS.

CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION ENABLES THE CARDIOLOGIST TO OBSERVE THE HEART'S BLOOD FLOW AND STUDY THE CONDITION OF BLOOD VESSELS AND THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF OBSTRUCTIONS. THE CATHETERIZATION LAB IS JUST ONE PART OF THE MEDICAL CENTER'S CARDIOLOGY DIAGNOSTIC AND TREATMENT CENTER SERVICES.
CORE FORM, PART III - CONTINUED	CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION SERVICES -------------------------------- A CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION IS A VISUAL HEART TEST CONDUCTED BY A CARDIOLOGIST.

THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED BY INSERTING A BALLOON INTO THE BLOCKED ARTERIES FOLLOWED BY A STENT, IN SOME CASES, TO KEEP THE ARTERIES CLEAR. THE TECHNIQUE HALTS OR PREVENTS THE POTENTIALLY DEADLY CONSEQUENCES OF HEART ATTACK WHILE FACILITATING THE BEST POSSIBLE PATIENT OUTCOMES. RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER ROUTINELY PERFORMS THIS PROCEDURE IN LESS THAN 60 MINUTES OF A PATIENT ENTERING THE HOSPITAL, WELL BELOW THE NATIONAL BENCHMARK OF 90 MINUTES. 4) JOSLIN DIABETES CENTER AFFILIATE IN RESPONSE TO THE INCREASING EPIDEMIC OF DIABETES IN ITS SERVICE AREAS, RARITAN BAY MEDICAL HAS PARTNERED WITH THE NATIONALLY RENOWNED JOSLIN DIABETES CENTER IN BOSTON, MA TO LAUNCH A JOSLIN DIABETES CENTER AFFILIATE AT RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER'S OLD BRIDGE HOSPITAL.
