Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility , 1	Facility , 1 - Springfield Regional Medical Center. Springfield Regional Medical Center (SRMC) is addressing the significant needs identified in the most recently conducted CHNA as follows: Mental Health Wellbeing - Currently, SRMC is partnering in Clark County to work with the State in the area of medical Mental Health Homes and managed care so our focus in on prevention. MHRB advocates adoption of treatment overlay; the FQHC provides mental health services; there is an array of MH providers for adults and youth (Osterlin, Catholic Charities, Well Spring, Rocking Horse-and Medicaid is available through all providers); MHRB is beginning a focus on prevention using the Good Behavior Game (GBG) in local schools, which is also embedded in the local university's education program curriculum; A Trauma informed care initiative at SRMC; Crisis intervention training done by the board on a regular basis to first responders where focus is recognition and referral. Chronic Disease Management - A large portion of the city of Springfield is a Health Professionals Shortage Area (HPSA). The County does have an FQHC, but while it does have new physical capacity, the facility has dropped from four physicians to two with one of those two being the medical director. SRMC has worked with the FQHC, first by providing $150,000.00 to recruit and hire additional providers. SRMC and the FQHC have established a process for patients being discharged from the hospital with a diagnosis of diabetes and without a PCP, to schedule the first follow up appointment and become an established patient at the FQHC. This success of this program is proven by the zero readmission rate of these patients and a reduction in their A1C levels and overall improved health. In 2015 a process was begun to focus on patients discharged with a diagnosis of CHF, scheduling follow-up appointments and education to maintain a healthy lifestyle. A bariatric program, Springfield Weight Management Solutions was established to help with the problem of obesity which can severely affect quality of life. In addition to the social and psychological problems obesity is strongly associated with high blood pressure, arthritis, diabetes, heart and lung disease and a shortened life span. Substance Abuse - Clark County, like many communities in the country, is experiencing an increase in the use of heroin among other substance abuse trends. The community determined that the primary barrier to improving substance abuse prevention strategies is the overall lack of capacity in the County. To get to the point of targeting the highest priority strategies, the community first needs to build data collection and analysis capacity. Such capacity will enable the community to make a firm case for the need for more resources, then to obtain additional professionals, and to be able to prioritize and disseminate effective prevention interventions. In terms of community strengths, there is wide community support to follow the Strategic Prevention Framework and to pursue participation by the 12 partnering sectors recommended by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Additionally SRMC is part of the Drug Death Review Team whose purpose is to perform a multidisciplinary review of all unintentional drug deaths occurring in Clark County, identifying interventions to reduce the rate of drug deaths. Identified needs that are not being addressed specifically by SRMC Obesity - Implement a child health, multi-dimensional, school-wide, evidence-based program in Lincoln Elementary as a pilot program to determine what works then scale up to additional schools. The Obesity Task Force determined that a core criterion for their decision was prevention, and therefore their focus is on youth in schools, which also engages parents, via a multidimensional, school-wide, child health evidence-based program. Healthy Births - To identify and engage pregnant women in first trimester prenatal care. Partnering Agencies are Clark County Combined Health District including its WIC program, the Community Foundation, the Pregnancy Resource Center, Clark County Department of Job and Family Services, and Springfield's Women's Network. The gap analysis uncovered the need for better outreach to pregnant women to get them to the FQHC's OB program. A concerning proportion of pregnant women delay prenatal care, and this trend is especially evident among the growing Spanish speaking-only households, where it is not uncommon for pregnant women to get a confirmation of pregnancy at 4-6 months.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 22 Facility , 1	Facility , 1 - Springfield Regional Medical Center. The maximum amount that can be charged to FAP-eligible individuals for emergency care or other medically necessary care is based upon federal poverty levels stated in the hospital's financial assistance policy.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 5 Facility , 1	Facility , 1 - Mercy Memorial Hospital. Mercy Memorial Hospital, a critical access hospital, took part in the Regional Health Needs Assessment Project: Ohio's Critical Access Hospitals, North Central Region. The process relied on a data-driven, facilitated planning approach, and was conducted between November 2011 and May 2012 in four (4) half-day sessions. In addition, Mercy Memorial Hospital participated in the Champaign County Community Health Plan process beginning in November 2012 with six (6) meetings and concluding in June 2013. A team of Wright State University researchers reviewed current literature to identify evidence-based practices (EBP) that could be used to remedy the priority issues. Task forces reconvened in June and August of 2012 to review and determine the viability of the EBP. Feedback collected from this meeting was used to refine research efforts and develop action steps to implement the chosen strategies. This information was organized into an action plan by the Wright State team and distributed to task force participants for review in October 2012. A community health planning cycle was used to analyze the data in 5 steps: 1. Self-assessment 2. Build the partnership 3. Conduct planning Activities 4. Task forces 5. Evaluation A total of five meetings were held thereafter with Wright State consisting of the first steering meeting, two task force meetings (community and internal), and a second steering committee meeting to combine all the data. Active partners in this process included representatives from the Champaign County Mental Health/Suicide Coalition, County Health Commissioner, YMCA, Mercy Memorial Hospital, Drug Free Youth Coalition, Early Childhood Coordinating Committee, Family & Children First Council, Caring Kitchen, Mercy Well Child Pediatrics, local Cancer Association, Champaign County Board of Developmentally Delayed , Educational Services Center Office, Transitions Counseling, Home Health and area churches as well as the Administrators of local senior residential facilities, superintendents of Champaign County and Urbana City schools, North Lewisburg Township Trustees and the county's Medical Director. Seven meetings were held over a twelve month period beginning in October 2011 through November 2012.

Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility , 1	Facility , 1 - Mercy Memorial Hospital. Mercy Memorial Hospital is addressing the significant needs identified in the most recently conducted CHNA as follows: Adult Mental Health - The goal to provide a safe room in the Emergency Department at Mercy Memorial Hospital has been met. The room is fully enclosed and specially designed to remove all potentially dangerous objects. There is a monitoring system that provides safety for the staff in the case of violent patients and also eliminates the need for a "sitter" which upholds the dignity of the patient. Nutrition and Exercise - A fitness center was opened for employees at Mercy Memorial Hospital in 2015 to promote wellness for employees. Employees are taking advantage to the fitness center noting the opportunity to use before or after work, eliminating an extra stop at a community gym and eliminating the cost of membership. The following employee wellness data is based on comparison of 2014 to 2015: * 3% decrease in metabolic syndrome * 9% decrease in hypertension (16% to 7%) * 2% increase in ideal HDL (37% to 39%) * 5% increase in participation & points earned (44%-49%) Chronic Disease Management: The Chronic Care Clinic at MMH, opened in May of 2015 provides post discharge, follow up appointments for patients without a primary care physician, medication reconciliation and support in finding a medical home. The recent reduction in readmissions in 2015 has been attributed to the clinic. Additionally a Vivitrol program through the Chronic Care Clinic began in May 2015. This program offers medication assistance treatment (MAT) to all clients at REACH (outpatient drug, alcohol & tobacco rehab program) Identified needs that are not being addressed specifically by Mercy Memorial Hospital: Youth Substance Abuse and Wellness: Other community agencies are specifically designed and better prepared to address this health need. MMH continues to support groups such as Champaign County Drug Free Youth Coalition, Champaign County Family and Children First Council, Triad Local Schools North Lewisburg, Ohio and Mercy Well Child Pediatrics, Urbana Ohio.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 22 Facility , 1	Facility , 1 - Mercy Memorial Hospital. The maximum amount that can be charged to FAP-eligible individuals for emergency or other medically necessary care is based upon federal poverty levels stated in the hospital's financial assistance policy.

Schedule H, Part I, Line 6a Community benefit report prepared by related organization	Mercy Health
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7g Subsidized Health Services	COMMUNITY MERCY HEALTH PARTNERS (CMHP) OPERATES THE MERCY WELL CHILD PEDIATRIC CLINIC. SERVICES ARE PROVIDED PRIMARILY BY A NURSE PRACTITIONER; HOWEVER, WE DO HAVE A STAFF PHYSICIAN (ON OUR PAYROLL) WHO PROVIDES ON-CALL COVERAGE AND LIMITED ON-SITE HOURS. THE AMOUNT OF SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES ATTRIBUTABLE TO A PHYSICIAN CLINIC IS $155,075.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistance	COST OF CHARITY CARE WAS CALCULATED WITH A COST TO CHARGE RATIO USING WORKSHEET 2. THE COST RELATED TO MEDICAID PATIENTS WAS DETERMINED USING THE HOSPITAL COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM AND INCLUDED BOTH INPATIENTS AND OUTPATIENTS FOR TRADITIONAL MEDICAID AND MEDICAID MANAGED CARE PLANS. FOR SUBSIDIZED SERVICES THE HOSPITAL'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM IS USED TO DETERMINE COST RELATED TO THE SPECIFIC SERVICE EXCLUDING TRADITIONAL MEDICAID AND MEDICAID MANAGED CARE PATIENTS. COSTS FOR CHARITY AND BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS ARE DEDUCTED USING A RATIO OF COST TO CHARGE SPECIFIC TO THAT SUBSIDIZED SERVICE. COSTS FOR OTHER PROGRAMS REFLECT THE DIRECT AND INDIRECT COSTS OF PROVIDING THOSE PROGRAMS.
Schedule H, Part II Community Building Activities	COMMUNITY MERCY HEALTH PARTNERS (CMHP) ENSURES ACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICES BY RECRUITING AND PROVIDING TRANSITIONAL SUPPORT TO PHYSICIANS TO ATTRACT THEM TO THE COMMUNITY FOR SPECIALTIES WHERE THERE IS A DEMONSTRATED NEED. AN APPROPRIATE SUPPLY OF PHYSICIANS IS NECESSARY TO ENSURE THAT RESIDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO ADEQUATE AND TIMELY DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT FOR ALL HEALTH CONDITIONS.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount	The provision for bad debts is based upon management's assessment of historical and expected net collections considering historical business and economic conditions, trends in health care coverage, and other collection indicators. Net patient accounts are reduced by an allowance for doubtful receivables based upon the hospital's historical collection experience adjusted for current environmental risks and trends for each major payor source. Significant provision is made for self-pay patient accounts in the period of service based on past collection experience. The hospital's concentration of credit risk related to net patient accounts is limited due to the diversity of patients and payors. Net patient accounts consist of amounts due from governmental programs (primarily Medicare and Medicaid), private insurance companies, managed care programs and patients themselves. Net patient service revenue for services provided to patients who have third-party payor coverage is recognized based on contractual rates for services rendered. The hospital recognizes a significant amount of patient service revenue at the time services are rendered even though it does not assess the patient's ability to pay. As a result, the provision for bad debts is presented as a deduction from patient service revenue (net of contractual provisions and discounts). Amounts recognized are subject to adjustment upon review by third-party payors. For uninsured patients that do not qualify for charity care, the hospital recognizes revenue when services are provided. Based on historical experience, a significant portion of the hospital's uninsured patients will be unable or unwilling to pay for services provided. Thus, the hospital records a significant provision for bad debts related to uninsured patients in the period the services are provided. Any discounts applied to self-pay patients would be deemed either Charity or a contractual adjustment. Bad debt would be based on the balance after the charity or contractual adjustment that is deemed uncollectable following a reasonable collection effort.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense Methodology	The hospital's financial assistance policy does not permit the cost of patients who are uncooperative or unable to be located to be reclassified from bad debt to financial assistance. The hospital's financial assistance policy requires an application and supporting documentation. Therefore, zero dollars are being reported on Part III, Line 3 as amounts included in bad debt that could be attributable to patients eligible under the hospital's financial assistance policy. The hospital follows the Catholic Health Association of the United States policy document, Community Benefit Program, A Revised Resource for Social Accountability ("CHA guidelines") for determining community benefit. The CHA guidelines recommend that hospitals not include bad debt expense as community benefit.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote	The hospital's audited financial statements do not contain a footnote that describes bad debt expense. The hospital elected to early adopt ASU 2011-07. Accordingly, bad debt expense is reflected as a deduction from revenue rather than an operating expense. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, B. Significant Accounting Policies, Net Patient accounts and Net Patient Service Revenue (page 13) states net patient accounts are reduced by an allowance for doubtful receivables based upon the historical collection experience of each regional affiliate adjusted for current environmental risks and trends for each major payor source. Significant provision is made for self-pay patient accounts in the period of service based upon past collection experience.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs	The hospital follows the Catholic Health Association of the United States policy document, Community Benefit Program, A Revised Resource for Social Accountability ("CHA guidelines") for determining community benefit. The CHA guidelines recommend that hospitals not include Medicare losses as community benefit. The hospital's cost accounting system was used to determine the Medicare amounts in Part III.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance	Patients known to qualify for charity care or financial assistance are not sent to a collection agency. The organization repeatedly offers patients access to financial help during their hospital stays and after, as well as with each billing notice. Bills are sent to a collection agency as a last resort and only: when patients have the ability to pay some portion of their healthcare expenses but refuse to do so; when patients refuse to work with the organization to determine if they qualify for free or discounted care via federal, state, local or hospital assistance programs; when the organization is unable to locate the patient or person responsible for the bill.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a Process to establish compensation of top management official	The organization's formal process for determining total compensation for the CEO and other officers and key employees is intended to provide reasonable compensation for accomplishing the organization's mission, to recognize performance, and to operate in keeping with the organization's obligations as a tax-exempt charitable organization. The Compensation & Evaluation Committee of the organization's Board of Trustees conducts an annual review of the compensation and performance of the CEO and other officers and key employees. In doing so, the Committee retains a qualified independent compensation consultant to conduct a competitive market analysis annually of the market ranges of base, incentive, and total cash compensation. The Committee utilizes that analysis and other appropriate information in connection with its annual review and adjustment of compensation ranges. It also reviews and recommends to the full board the threshold, target, and maximum incentive awards for which the listed individuals may be eligible, based upon the organization's performance results for community benefit, quality, and financial performance. The committee's recommendations concerning salary range adjustments and incentive awards go to the full board for approval. The committee, with full board approval, determines the adjustment to the ceo's base compensation and incentive award, within such established parameters. For the coo, cao, evp, and svp positions, adjustments and incentive awards are approved by the organization's ceo within such parameters. Adjustments and awards for other listed individuals are recommended by the supervising executive. Base salary adjustments and incentive awards are disclosed to the committee. A formal performance appraisal process is incorporated in the compensation adjustment and award process. It utilizes a multi-perspective approach and performance measures which are linked to the organization's long-term strategic plan, achievement of annual system objectives, and personal objectives.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b Process to establish compensation of other employees	Compensation-related determinations are conducted in accordance with applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and regulations to qualify for the presumption that the compensation is reasonable, including but not limited to approval by an authorized body composed of individuals who do not have a conflict of interest, obtaining and relying on appropriate data as to comparability, and concurrent documentation of the basis for the compensation determinations.
