| PART X, LINE 2: | THE HOSPITAL ADOPTED THE STANDARD FOR ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES RECOGNIZED IN A HOSPITAL'S CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT PRESCRIBES A RECOGNITION THRESHOLD OF MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT TO BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION BY THE APPROPRIATE TAXING AUTHORITY. MEASUREMENT OF THE TAX UNCERTAINTY OCCURS IF THE RECOGNITION THRESHOLD HAS BEEN MET. THE STANDARD ALSO PROVIDES GUIDANCE ON DERECOGNITION, CLASSIFICATION, INTEREST AND PENALTIES, ACCOUNTING IN INTERIM PERIODS, DISCLOSURE, AND TRANSITION.

| MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL, INC. | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: IN JANUARY 2012, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL AND WASHINGTON HEALTH SYSTEM CONTRACTED WITH WASHINGTON COUNTY HEALTH PARTNERS (WCHP) TO PERFORM A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH RECOGNIZES WCHP AS A PUBLIC ENTITY RESPONSIBLE FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT PLANNING BECAUSE THE GROUP IS UNIQUELY POSITIONED TO PROVIDE A QUALITY ASSESSMENT AND A COLLABORATIVE FORMAT TO ADDRESS IDENTIFIED NEEDS. WORKING TOGETHER, REPRESENTATIVES FROM MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL AND WCHP CALCULATED THAT APPROXIMATELY 80 PERCENT OF THE HOSPITAL'S ADMISSIONS ORIGINATE FROM THREE COUNTIES - WASHINGTON, WESTMORELAND AND FAYETTE. THEY WERE FURTHER BROKEN DOWN BY COMMUNITY OR TOWN WHICH INCLUDE: BELLE VERNON, CHARLEROI, DONORA, MONESSEN, MONONGAHELA, NEW EAGLE, WEST NEWTON, BENTLEYVILLE, FINLEYVILLE, BROWNSVILLE, CALIFORNIA, COAL CENTER, FAYETTE CITY, PERRYOPOLIS AND ROSCOE. QUANTITATIVE DATA WAS COLLECTED FOR MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL'S DEFINED COMMUNITY. SOURCES INCLUDED HOSPITAL DISCHARGE DATA FOR YEARS 2009-2011 AND AN OCTOBER 2012 SURVEY TO THE DEFINED COMMUNITY WITH QUESTIONS SIMILAR TO THOSE FROM THE ANNUAL BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTOR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM MANAGED BY THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION AND ADMINISTERED BY THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH. A RANDOMLY CHOSEN SAMPLE WAS CONSTRUCTED WITH A CONFIDENCE LEVEL OF 95 PERCENT. ADDITIONALLY, COMMUNITY LEADER STRUCTURED INTERVIEWS WERE USED TO GATHER COMMUNITY INPUT AND QUALITATIVE PRIMARY DATA ABOUT IDENTIFIED "MISSING" POPULATION NEEDS. AS A RESULT OF THE ASSESSMENT, THE FOLLOWING AREAS WERE IDENTIFIED AS HEALTH CARE NEEDS FOR THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL:- CORONARY HEART DISEASE DEATHS- DIABETES DEATHS AND DIABETES PREVALENCE- STROKE DEATHS- COPD DEATHS - TOBACCO USE (ADULT SMOKELESS AND PREGNANT SMOKING)- BINGE AND HEAVY DRINKING- SUICIDE DEATHS- BREAST CANCER DEATHS AND LATE STAGE BREAST CANCER- DENTAL VISITS- COLORECTAL CANCER DEATHS AND INVASIVE COLORECTAL CANCER- LUNG CANCER DEATHS- OBESITY, FRUITS AND VEGETABLE CONSUMPTION, RECOMMENDED ACTIVITY- ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODJUST PRIOR TO THE START OF FISCAL YEAR 2013, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL'S PLANNING AND OUTREACH COMMITTEE MET TO REVIEW THE FINDINGS. THE COMMITTEE, WHICH IS CHAIRED BY HOSPITAL PRESIDENT AND CEO LOUIS J. PANZA JR. AND COMPRISED OF DESIGNATED MEMBERS OF MVH'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP, IDENTIFIED 13 HEALTH NEEDS AS UNDERPERFORMING BASELINES AND TARGETS. THESE HEALTH NEEDS WERE PRESENTED TO THE HOSPITAL'S FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES WHOSE MEMBERS PRIORITIZED THE NEEDS. TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE BOARD'S INPUT, THE COMMITTEE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT ALL 13 IDENTIFIED HEALTH NEEDS WERE IMPORTANT, BUT DETERMINED THAT DURING THE YEARS AHEAD, THE HOSPITAL SHOULD PREFERENTIALLY ADDRESS THE FOLLOWING NEEDS:- CORONARY HEART DISEASE DEATHS- DIABETES DEATHS AND DIABETES PREVALENCE- STROKE DEATHS- COPD DEATHS - BREAST CANCER DEATHS AND LATE STAGE BREAST CANCER- COLORECTAL CANCER DEATHS AND INVASIVE COLORECTAL CANCER- LUNG CANCER DEATHS- OBESITY, FRUITS AND VEGETABLE CONSUMPTION, RECOMMENDED ACTIVITYTHE COMMUNITY NEEDS OUTLINED ABOVE LARGELY AFFIRM THE RESOURCES AND PROGRAMS THE HOSPITAL OFFERS TO THE COMMUNITY. THE AREAS NOT INCLUDED ON THE PRIORITIZED LIST ARE THOSE FOR WHICH THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT POSSESS THE REQUISITE SKILLS AND RESOURCES TO BEST ADDRESS THE IDENTIFIED HEALTH CARE NEEDS. LISTED BELOW IS A SAMPLING OF SPECIFIC SERVICES AND PROGRAMS THAT MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL OFFERED TO PATIENTS AND THE COMMUNITY DURING FISCAL YEAR 2013 THAT DIRECTLY RELATE TO THE 13 IDENTIFIED PRIORITIES.CORONARY HEART DISEASEMONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO EARLY DETECTION OF CARDIAC AND VASCULAR DISEASES THROUGH THE USE OF NONINVASIVE TESTING PERFORMED WITHIN THE HOSPITAL'S CARDIAC DEPARTMENT AND THE PERIPHERAL VASCULAR LAB. A FULL RANGE OF DIAGNOSTIC CARDIOLOGY AND VASCULAR TESTING INCLUDES:- ECG- NUCLEAR STRESS - BOTH EXERCISE AND PHARMACOLOGICAL- HOLTER MONITORING- ECHOCARDIOGRAM- STRESS TESTS - STRESS ECHO- DOPPLER STUDIES- TRANSESOPHAGEAL ECHOCARDIOGRAMS- TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAMSTO CONTINUE PROVIDING THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY AND VASCULAR THERAPIES, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL INSTALLED THE NEW ARTIS ZEE CEILING/FLOOR-MOUNTED ANGIOGRAPHY SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES PHYSICIANS WITH HIGHLY DETAILED IMAGES OF PATIENT'S BLOOD VESSELS DURING DIAGNOSTIC AND TREATMENT PROCEDURES. THE FULLY DIGITAL ARTIS ZEE FEATURES ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY IN THE FORM OF FLAT-PANEL DETECTORS, WHICH ENABLE PHYSICIANS TO OBTAIN THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGES IN HIGH RESOLUTION, WITHOUT THE DISTORTION COMMON WITH CONVENTIONAL X-RAY TECHNIQUES. THE FLAT DETECTORS, MADE OF AMORPHOUS SILICON, NOT ONLY ENABLE PHYSICIANS TO VISUALIZE THE FINEST BLOOD VESSELS, IT ALSO HELPS PHYSICIANS VISUALIZE INTERVENTIONAL DEVICES, SUCH AS GUIDE WIRES AND CATHETERS, IN PRECISE DETAIL AND FROM ALMOST ANY ANGLE. THE SYSTEM IS SPECIALLY DESIGNED TO PROVIDE PATIENTS WITH THE LOWEST POSSIBLE RADIATION DOSE. MINIMIZING RADIATION DOSE IS ESPECIALLY BENEFICIAL DURING ANGIOGRAPHIC PROCEDURES BECAUSE THEY ARE OFTEN LENGTHY IN DURATION. THE ERGONOMIC DESIGN OF THE SYSTEM ALSO ELIMINATES TIME-CONSUMING AND UNCOMFORTABLE REPOSITIONING OF THE PATIENT IN THE EXAM ROOM, MAKING THE PROCEDURE FASTER AND LESS STRESSFUL FOR THE PATIENT. DURING INTERVENTIONS, THE COMPACT FLAT-PANEL DETECTOR TECHNOLOGY ENABLES VIRTUALLY ALL ANATOMICAL REGIONS TO BE EASILY IMAGED. SYSTEM FUNCTIONS CAN BE PERFORMED VIA AN INTUITIVE TABLESIDE TOUCH-SCREEN DISPLAY. THIS ENABLES FULL SYSTEM CONTROL, AND LEADS TO IMPROVED CONFIDENCE DURING THE PROCEDURE.MVH'S CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION LAB OFFERS EMERGENCY THERAPEUTIC SERVICES INCLUDING: CORONARY ANGIOPLASTY, WHICH RESTORES BLOOD FLOW TO THE HEART BY USING A BALLOON CATHETER TO DECREASE THE BLOCKAGE IN THE CORONARY ARTERY CORONARY ARTERY STENTING, WHICH IS A PROCEDURE BY WHICH A SMALL SLEEVE IS INSERTED INTO A STRICTURED ARTERY TO RESTORE BLOOD FLOW TO THE HEART THE USE OF DRUG ELUTING STENTS, WHICH IS THE INSERTION OF A STENT WHICH EMITS A TIME RELEASE DRUG TO PREVENT THE ARTERY FROM CLOSING THE CARDIOLOGY ECHO LAB IS ACCREDITED IN TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOLOGY AND TRANSESOPHAGEAL ECHOCARDIOLOGY BY THE INTERSOCIETAL COMMISSION FOR THE ACCREDITATION OF ECHOCARDIOLOGY LABORATORIES (ICAEL). THE ICAEL RECOGNIZED THE LAB FOR ITS COMMITMENT TO QUALITY PATIENT CARE AND ITS PROVISION OF QUALITY DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. CARDIAC AND PULMONARY REHABILITATION IS FOR INDIVIDUALS RECOVERING FROM A POST CARDIAC EVENT, ANGIOPLASTY, STABLE ANGINA OR WHO SUFFER FROM A CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE. THIS MEDICALLY SUPERVISED PROGRAM IS COMPRISED OF A 12-WEEK REHABILITATION PROGRAM, BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION AND EDUCATION TO HELP PATIENTS RETURN TO A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE.MVH IS ONE OF ONLY FEW MEDICAL FACILITIES IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA THAT IS DESIGNATED AS A MISSION: LIFELINE FACILITY. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL HAS TAKEN THE STEP TO SEEK AND RECEIVE THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION'S MISSION: LIFELINE CERTIFICATION. THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES EMERGENCY CORONARY INTERVENTION WHICH IS THE PLACEMENT OF CORONARY STENTS IN CLOGGED ARTERIES. MISSION: LIFELINE HOSPITALS MEET RIGID GUIDELINES FOR THE PROVISION OF HEART CARE SERVICES. ADDED TO THE LIST OF DISTINCTIONS WERE ACCREDITATION AS AN ELECTIVE PERCULTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION (PCI) FACILITY BY THE ACCREDITATION FOR CARDIOVASCULAR EXCELLENCE (ACE), A THREE-YEAR ACCREDITATION FROM THE INTERSOCIETAL COMMISSION FOR THE ACCREDITATION OF ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY LABORATORIES IN ADULT TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY AND ADULT TRANSESOPHAGEAL ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY. FEBRUARY IS NATIONAL HEART AWARENESS. IN 2015, MONONGAHELA HOSPITAL, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE TWO OTHER HOSPITALS IN WASHINGTON COUNTY SPONSORED THE 3RD ANNUAL "GO RED WASHINGTON COUNTY" HEART HEALTH EVENT FOR THE COMMUNITY.

| PART VI, LINE 2: | HOSPITAL CARE IN THE MID-MONONGAHELA VALLEY DATES BACK TO DECEMBER 18, 1902, WHEN THE ORIGINAL MEMORIAL HOSPITAL OF MONONGAHELA OPENED IN NEW EAGLE. THE CHARLEROI-MONESSEN HOSPITAL SOON FOLLOWED WITH A 1909 OPENING. IN 1972, THOSE TWO HOSPITALS CONSOLIDATED TO FORM MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL (MVH). THE CURRENT 210-BED ACUTE CARE HOSPITAL IN CARROLL TOWNSHIP, PA WAS DEDICATED ON SEPTEMBER 24, 1978, TO ENHANCE THE HEALTH OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE MID-MONONGAHELA VALLEY AREA. TODAY, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL OFFERS A MEDICAL STAFF OF MORE THAN 225 PHYSICIANS REPRESENTING MORE THAN 40 MEDICAL SPECIALTIES. RESIDENTS OF THE MON VALLEY AND SURROUNDING AREAS DO NOT HAVE TO TRAVEL TO LARGER CITIES WITH TEACHING HOSPITALS FOR MEDICAL CARE BECAUSE THEY CAN RECEIVE CUTTING EDGE, EXPERT CARE FROM THEIR COMMUNITY HOSPITAL. IN 2010, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL WAS RANKED IN THE TOP 1 PERCENTILE AMONG ALL OF THE NATION'S HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATIONS IN PATIENT SATISFACTION BY PRESS GANEY. IN 2013, JOHNS HOPKINS MEDICINE ARMSTRONG INSTITUTE FOR PATIENT SAFETY AND QUALITY RANKED MVH AMONG THE TOP THREE MEDIUM-SIZED HOSPITALS IN THE NATION FOR NURSE COMMUNICATION, DOCTOR COMMUNICATION, STAFF RESPONSIVENESS AND PAIN MANAGEMENT. THE ACCOLADES CONTINUED IN EARLY 2014 WHEN, FOR THE SECOND CONSECUTIVE YEAR, THE HOSPITAL ACHIEVED THE HEALTHGRADES' OUTSTANDING PATIENT EXPERIENCE AWARD. ONLY 10 PERCENT OF ALL HOSPITALS IN THE UNITED STATES RECEIVED THIS AWARD.WHILE THERE HAVE BEEN MANY INDUSTRY-WIDE CHANGES IN HEALTH CARE IN THE 40 YEARS SINCE MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL WAS FORMED, ONE WITH A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT IS THE CHANGE FROM PROVIDING CARE LARGELY ON AN INPATIENT BASIS TO AN OUTPATIENT-BASED SETTING IN WHICH PROVIDERS ARE CONCERNED WITH KEEPING PATIENTS HEALTHY AND AT HOME, WHILE OFFERING APPROPRIATE SERVICES WHEN INPATIENT CARE IS NEEDED. AS THIS SHIFT FROM INPATIENT TO OUTPATIENT CARE IS OCCURRING, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL IS STRENGTHENING OUR ROLE IN THE COMMUNITY.MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL'S MISSION IS TO ENHANCE THE HEALTH OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE MID-MONONGAHELA VALLEY AREAS REGARDLESS OF ETHNIC BACKGROUND, AGE, OR ABILITY TO PAY, ALL THE WHILE MAINTAINING A HIGH DEGREE OF RESPONSIVENESS TO CHANGES, PARTICULARLY THOSE OF THE COMMUNITY. THE HOSPITAL WORKS TO ACHIEVE ITS MISSION BY MAINTAINING SUITABLE FACILITIES WITHIN CARROLL TOWNSHIP, WASHINGTON COUNTY AND ROSTRAVER TOWNSHIP, WESTMORELAND COUNTY, AND OTHER SITES IN THE SOUTHWESTERN PENNSYLVANIA VICINITY FOR THE PROVISION OF HEALTH CARE. ADDITIONALLY, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL HAS ALWAYS ENCOURAGED PROGRESS AND FLEXIBILITY TO MEET THE CHANGING NEEDS OF OUR PATIENTS AND ALL RESIDENTS OF THE COMMUNITIES IN THE MID-MONONGAHELA VALLEY.THE MVH COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT CONSIDERED A WIDE VARIETY OF DATA FROM PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SOURCES THAT ARE BOTH QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE IN NATURE IN ORDER TO OBTAIN A DIVERSITY OF PERSPECTIVES THAT WAS REQUIRED. THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF A COMMUNITY ARE A COMPLEX INTERPLAY BETWEEN PERSONAL BEHAVIORS AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS. TO EVALUATE EFFECTIVELY, CONSIDERATION WAS GIVEN TO THE POPULATION'S DEMOGRAPHIC AND SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS COUPLED WITH THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S RESOURCES AND POLICIES. A DESCRIPTION OF THOSE FACTORS, ALONG WITH PERSPECTIVES FROM THE COMMUNITY, HELPS TELL US THE STORY OF OUR COMMUNITY'S HEALTH.INFORMATION WAS USED FROM GROUPS COMPRISED OF INDIVIDUAL PHYSICIANS AND PHYSICIAN GROUPS FROM THE HOSPITAL'S MEDICAL STAFF, THE HOSPITAL'S EXECUTIVE AND STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEES, REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE HOSPITAL'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES, AND VARIOUS DISEASE-SPECIFIC COMMITTEES INCLUDING THE HOSPITAL'S TUMOR BOARD AND A CARDIAC ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO ASSESS COMMUNITY NEEDS AND RECOMMEND STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THESE HEALTH CARE NEEDS.THE HOSPITAL PROVIDED THESE GROUPS WITH INFORMATION RELATED TO THE INCIDENCE AND PREVALENCE OF DISEASE IN THE SERVICE AREA, PREVENTABLE QUALITY INDICATORS, PATTERNS OF ACCESSING HEALTH CARE SERVICES AND USE RATES.SOME INFORMATION AND PARTICIPANTS INCLUDED IN OUR ASSESSMENT WERE:- PROVIDER PANELS- DISEASE STATES OF PATIENTS SEEN BY THEIR PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER- CLINICAL PERFORMANCE METRICS FOR OUR POPULATIONS OF PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC DISEASE- CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT CARE TEAMS AT THE POINT OF CARE- PATIENT REGISTRIES - EVALUATION OF REPORTS FROM COMMUNITY, LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES - REVIEW OF HOSPITAL-GENERATED STATISTICAL INFORMATION - ASSESSMENT OF INFORMATION SOLICITED FROM PATIENTS THROUGH PATIENT SATISFACTION SURVEYS - ONGOING ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF PLANNING SESSIONS- LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH SUCH AS CANCER, HEART DISEASE, VIOLENCE AND HIGHWAY FATALITIES- PRIORITY HEALTH ISSUES SUCH AS TEEN PREGNANCY, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, HEART DISEASE, CANCER, STROKE, DIABETES AND OBESITY- PRIORITY RISK FACTORS SUCH AS ALCOHOL AND DRUG ABUSE, LACK OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, USE OF TOBACCO PRODUCTS, ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS AND CRIME- LEADING FACTORS AFFECTING FAMILIES SEEKING MEDICAL TREATMENT SUCH AS LACK OF INSURANCE AND INABILITY TO PAY- GENERAL PATIENT CONCERNS SUCH AS LACK OF TRANSPORTATION, MEDICINE AND FOOD- ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS SUCH AS RECYCLING SERVICES, PROPER TRASH DISPOSAL, CLEAN AIR, PEST CONTROL AND ANIMAL CONTROL- EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR INFORMATION ABOUT ALCOHOL/DRUG ABUSE, TEEN PREGNANCY PREVENTION AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY- REVIEW OF CURRENT INDUSTRY JOURNALS, PERIODICALS AND NEWSLETTERS - ANALYSIS OF TRENDS IDENTIFIED IN HEALTH CARE JOURNALS AND PERIODICALSMONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL HAS COMPLETED THEIR FORMAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT DURING THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2013.

| PART VI, LINE 3: | THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT (ACA) WAS PASSED TO PROVIDE MEDICAID COVERAGE TO LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS AND MARKETPLACE SUBSIDIES FOR THOSE BELOW THE POVERTY LINE. IN 2013, PRIOR TO THE START OF THE MAJOR ACA COVERAGE PROVISIONS, BASELINE ESTIMATES INDICATED THAT MORE THAN 41 MILLION INDIVIDUALS WERE UNINSURED. THE HIGH COST OF INSURANCE IS A KEY REASON WHY PEOPLE LACKED MEDICAL COVERAGE. IN 2013, 61 PERCENT OF UNINSURED ADULTS DID NOT HAVE COVERAGE DUE TO JOB LOSS OR THE HIGH COST OF MEDICAL INSURANCE. UNDER THE ACA, AS OF 2014, MEDICAID COVERAGE WAS EXPANDED TO NEARLY ALL ADULTS WITH INCOMES AT OR BELOW 138 PERCENT OF POVERTY AND TAX CREDITS WERE AVAILABLE FOR PEOPLE WHO PURCHASE COVERAGE THROUGH A HEALTH INSURANCE MARKETPLACE. THE ACA HAS HELPED EXPAND COVERAGE TO MILLIONS OF PREVIOUSLY UNINSURED PEOPLE. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL PROVIDES MEDICAL SERVICES TO ALL PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. ONE OF THE LARGEST POPULATIONS SERVED BY MVH IS THE ELDERLY POPULATION WHICH IS COVERED BY MEDICARE. DESPITE THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, THERE ARE STILL PEOPLE IN MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL'S SERVICE AREA WHO ARE NOT COVERED BY INSURANCE OR GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS AND LACK THE ABILITY TO PAY FOR MEDICAL SERVICES. HOWEVER, THE HOSPITAL MUST BE PRUDENT IN THE ALLOCATION OF FUNDS SO THAT A SOUND FINANCIAL BASE WILL ENABLE THE HOSPITAL TO CONTINUE PROVIDING MUCH NEEDED COMMUNITY HEALTH SERVICES. ALL TYPES OF SERVICES THAT THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF INDEPENDENT PHYSICIANS' FEES AND ELECTIVE PROCEDURES, ARE CONSIDERED ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL ESTABLISHED CHARITY CARE AND FINANCIAL AID POLICIES AND PRACTICES THAT ARE CONSISTENT WITH OUR MISSION AND VALUES AS WELL AS WITH FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS. THESE POLICIES AND PRACTICES TAKE INTO ACCOUNT EACH INDIVIDUAL'S ABILITY TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE COST OF HIS OR HER MEDICAL CARE AS WELL AS THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE CARE.MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL MAINTAINS THAT CONCERN OVER A HOSPITAL BILL WILL NEVER PREVENT ANY INDIVIDUAL FROM RECEIVING EMERGENCY HEALTH SERVICES REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. MVH COMMUNICATES THIS MESSAGE CLEARLY TO PATIENTS AND THE COMMUNITY. THIS MESSAGE IS COMMUNICATED THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITAL AND IN THE COMMUNITY VIA THE FOLLOWING SOURCES:A. NOTICES ARE LOCATED AT THE ENTRANCE TO MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL'S EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND THROUGH THE DOORS OF THE TREATMENT AREA THAT ANNOUNCE:ATTENTION PATIENTS:IF YOU HAVE A MEDICAL EMERGENCY OR ARE IN LABOR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE WITHIN THIS FACILITY AN APPROPRIATE SCREENING, NECESSARY STABILIZATION TREATMENTS (FOR YOU AND YOUR UNBORN BABY) AND APPROPRIATE TRANSFER TO ANOTHER FACILITY EVEN IF YOU CANNOT PAY OR DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE.

| PART VI, LINE 4: | ALTHOUGH MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL MARKED ITS 44TH ANNIVERSARY ON JULY 1, 2015, THE HEALTH SYSTEM TRACES ITS HERITAGE TO THE TURN OF THE LAST CENTURY WHEN ITS PREDECESSOR FACILITIES, CHARLEROI-MONESSEN HOSPITAL AND MEMORIAL HOSPITAL OF MONONGAHELA, WERE FOUNDED. THE ORIGINAL MEMORIAL HOSPITAL OF MONONGAHELA OPENED IN NEW EAGLE, PA IN 1902 AND THE CHARLEROI-MONESSEN HOSPITAL BEGAN ACCEPTING PATIENTS SEVEN YEARS LATER IN 1909. ON JULY 1, 1972, THE FORMER HOSPITALS WERE CONSOLIDATED TO BECOME MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL, INC. CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW HOSPITAL IN CARROLL TOWNSHIP BEGAN IN 1976 AND THE NEW FACILITY OPENED IN SEPTEMBER 1978. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL BECAME THE SINGLE HOSPITAL SERVING THE MID MONONGAHELA VALLEY AREA. APPROXIMATELY 80% OF THE HOSPITAL'S ADMISSIONS ARE DERIVED FROM 15 COMMUNITIES IN THREE COUNTIES - WASHINGTON, WESTMORELAND AND FAYETTE. THESE COMMUNITIES INCLUDE: BELLE VERNON, CHARLEROI, DONORA, MONESSEN, MONONGAHELA, NEW EAGLE, WEST NEWTON, BENTLEYVILLE, FINLEYVILLE, BROWNSVILLE, CALIFORNIA, COAL CENTER, FAYETTE CITY, PERRYOPOLIS AND ROSCOE.

STROKE DEATHS A STROKE, SOMETIMES CALLED A BRAIN ATTACK, OCCURS WHEN A BLOCKAGE STOPS THE FLOW OF BLOOD TO THE BRAIN OR WHEN A BLOOD VESSEL IN OR AROUND THE BRAIN BURSTS. ALTHOUGH MANY PEOPLE THINK OF STROKE AS A CONDITION THAT AFFECTS ONLY OLDER ADULTS, STROKES CAN AND DO OCCUR IN PEOPLE OF ALL AGES. IN FACT, NEARLY A QUARTER OF ALL STROKES OCCUR IN PEOPLE YOUNGER THAN AGE 65. EACH YEAR, ALMOST 800,000 STROKES OCCUR IN THE UNITED STATES. STROKES OFTEN LEAD TO SERIOUS, LIFE-CHANGING COMPLICATIONS THAT INCLUDE: - PARALYSIS OR WEAKNESS ON ONE SIDE OF THE BODY - PROBLEMS WITH THINKING, AWARENESS, ATTENTION, LEARNING, JUDGMENT, AND MEMORY - PROBLEMS UNDERSTANDING OR FORMING SPEECH - DIFFICULTY CONTROLLING OR EXPRESSING EMOTIONS - NUMBNESS OR STRANGE SENSATIONS - PAIN IN THE HANDS AND FEET - DEPRESSION WHEN A PERSON IS EXPERIENCING A STROKE, FAST AND ACCURATE INTERVENTION IS NECESSARY TO PRESERVE BRAIN FUNCTION AND PREVENT DEATH. HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS REPEATEDLY SAY, "TIME EQUALS BRAIN." |
| FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6I CONTINUED | ACCORDING TO DATA COLLECTED BY THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION, THE BEST CARE IS DELIVERED WHEN A STROKE-TRAINED NEUROLOGIST IS AVAILABLE AT THE PATIENT'S BEDSIDE OR VIA TELEMEDICINE. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL OFFERS A STROKE TELEMEDICINE PROGRAM THAT GIVES PATIENTS ACCESS TO HIGHLY SKILLED STROKE EXPERTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH MEDICAL CENTER (UPMC) WITHOUT LEAVING THE MONONGAHELA VALLEY.

PEOPLE WHO SUFFER A STROKE WHO RECEIVE THE DRUG WITHIN THREE HOURS OF THE ONSET OF SYMPTOMS MAY RECOVER QUICKER AND ARE LESS LIKELY TO SUFFER SEVERE DISABILITY. THE HOSPITAL ALSO EARNED THE JOINT COMMISSION'S DISEASE SPECIFIC CERTIFICATION FOR PRIMARY STROKE CARE CENTER. ACHIEVEMENT OF PRIMARY STROKE CENTER DEMONSTRATES THAT MVH'S STROKE PROGRAM MEETS CRITICAL ELEMENTS OF PERFORMANCE TO ACHIEVE LONG-TERM SUCCESS IN IMPROVING OUTCOMES FOR STROKE PATIENTS. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL OFFERS A STROKE SUPPORT GROUP FOR PATIENTS AND CAREGIVERS TO SHARE, LEARN AND GROW WITH PEOPLE WHO CAN PERSONALLY RELATE TO THE CHALLENGES AND STRUGGLES THEY FACE ON A DAILY BASIS DEALING WITH STROKE AND THE AFTER EFFECTS. THIS GROUP MEETS THE LAST THURSDAY OF EACH MONTH. PROGRAMS WERE PRESENTED TO COMMUNITY GROUPS RELATED TO STROKES WITH A MINI HEALTH FAIR HELD AT THE CREST AVENUE APARTMENTS IN CHARLEROI FOR RESIDENTS. SCREENINGS SUCH AS THE MULTIPHASIC AND THE BLOOD PRESSURE HELP MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY LEARN IF THEY ARE AT RISK FOR STROKES. THE ONLINE HEALTH LIBRARY AT MONVALLEYHOSPITAL.COM INCLUDES MANY STROKE RELATED TOPICS SUCH AS STROKE, STROKE-RISK FACTORS, STROKE RECOVERY, STROKE PREVENTION AND MANY THAT INDIRECTLY IMPACT THE LIKELIHOOD OF STROKES SUCH AS THOSE RELATED TO HYPERTENSION. COPD DEATHS ACCORDING TO THE COPD FOUNDATION, CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE (COPD) IS DEFINED AS AN UMBRELLA TERM TO DESCRIBE PROGRESSIVE LUNG DISEASES INCLUDING EMPHYSEMA, CHRONIC BRONCHITIS, REFRACTORY (NON-REVERSIBLE) ASTHMA, AND SOME FORMS OF BRONCHIECTASIS. THIS DISEASE IS CHARACTERIZED BY INCREASING BREATHLESSNESS. COPD AFFECTS AN ESTIMATED 24 MILLION INDIVIDUALS IN THE UNITED STATES, AND MORE THAN HALF OF THEM HAVE SYMPTOMS OF COPD AND DO NOT KNOW IT. EARLY SCREENING CAN IDENTIFY COPD BEFORE MAJOR LOSS OF LUNG FUNCTION OCCURS. IN 2012, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL ESTABLISHED THE PRIMARY CARE RESOURCE CENTER (PCRC) IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PITTSBURGH REGIONAL HEALTH INITIATIVE TO HELP PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEALTH PROBLEMS AND THEIR FAMILIES TO UNDERSTAND AND COORDINATE THE CARE THAT THEIR PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR HAS PRESCRIBED FOR THEM. THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVES ARE TO: - PROVIDE PATIENTS ESPECIALLY WITH CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE (COPD), HEART FAILURE (CHF) OR ANY TYPE OF CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE WITH EDUCATION TO ENHANCE THE SELF-MANAGEMENT OF THEIR DISEASES - HELP INCREASE PATIENTS' QUALITY OF LIFE - IMPROVE PATIENTS' COMPLIANCE WITH THE TREATMENT PLANS FROM THEIR PHYSICIANS - DECREASE PREVENTABLE READMISSIONS A TEAM OF NURSE CARE MANAGERS AND A CLINICAL PHARMACIST CAN HELP WITH: - LEARNING MORE ABOUT THE DOCTOR'S DIAGNOSIS, ESPECIALLY COPD, CHF OR ANY TYPE OF CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE - UNDERSTANDING MEDICATIONS - ARRANGING FOLLOW-UP CARE - RESPIRATORY INHALER TRAINING AND BETTER BREATHING EDUCATION - "SURVIVAL SKILLS" TRAINING FOR DIABETES, NUTRITION, ETC. THE PCRC TEAM SEES ANY AND ALL PATIENTS FROM MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL AND MVH-AFFILIATED PHYSICIANS AT NO CHARGE TO THE PATIENT OR THE PHYSICIAN PRACTICE REGARDLESS OF THE TYPE OF INSURANCE - AND EVEN IF THE PATIENT DOES NOT HAVE INSURANCE. THE PCRC TEAM CONSISTS OF NURSE CARE MANAGERS AND A CLINICAL PHARMACIST. IN 2015, MVH RECEIVED HEALTHGRADES' FIVE STAR AWARD FOR COPD TREATMENT. THE HOSPITAL ALSO RECEIVED THE JOINT COMMISSION'S ADVANCED DISEASE-SPECIFIC CERTIFICATION IN CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE. THE PCRC SPONSORS SMOKING CESSATION CLASSES. DURING THE FISCAL YEAR, THE CLASSES WERE HELD: FEBRUARY 3, 10, 17, 24 MAY 5, 12, 19, 26 AUGUST 4, 11, 18, 25 NOVEMBER 3, 10, 17, 24 A BETTER BREATHERS CLUB FOR ADULTS WITH BREATHING ISSUES FOR ANY REASON IS UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE PCRC AND MEETS MONTHLY. THE CLUB IS FREE AND OPEN TO ALL ADULTS AND THEIR FRIENDS, FAMILY OR CAREGIVERS WHO WANT TO LEARN OR SHARE INFORMATION ABOUT LIVING WELL WITH BREATHING ISSUES. THE GROUP MEETS THE SECOND TUESDAY OF EACH MONTH. BREAST CANCER DEATHS AND LATE STAGE BREAST CANCER ON JUNE 30, 1985, WHEN THE CHARLES L. AND ROSE SWEENEY MELENYZER PAVILION AND REGIONAL CANCER CENTER OPENED, IT WAS THE FIRST FACILITY IN WASHINGTON, FAYETTE AND GREENE COUNTIES TO OFFER RADIATION THERAPY TO PATIENTS. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE HISTORY OF THESE THREE COUNTIES, CANCER PATIENTS NO LONGER HAD TO LEAVE THE AREA FOR TREATMENT. IN 2003, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL TOOK CANCER CARE TO NEW HEIGHTS WITH THE ADDITION OF TWO FLOORS ON THE ORIGINAL BUILDING. TODAY, THE REGIONAL CANCER CENTER OFFERS CHEMOTHERAPY AND RADIATION THERAPY IN A PATIENT-CENTERED CARE ENVIRONMENT WITH MEDICALLY ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY. THE STAFF IS COMPOSED OF HIGHLY SKILLED CANCER CARE PROFESSIONALS WHO ARE TRAINED AND CERTIFIED IN CHEMOTHERAPY AND RADIATION THERAPY. THE MON-VALE ONCOLOGY UNIT AT MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL IS LOCATED ON THE SECOND FLOOR OF THE CHARLES L. AND ROSE SWEENEY MELENYZER PAVILION AND REGIONAL CANCER CENTER. THIS AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS' COMMISSION ON CANCER-APPROVED CANCER FACILITY PROVIDES A SITE FOR COORDINATING THE MANY OUTPATIENT ACTIVITIES REQUIRED FOR OPTIMAL CARE OF THE PATIENT. MON-VALE ONCOLOGY SERVES PRIMARILY ADULT AND GERIATRIC PATIENTS. APPROXIMATELY 80 PERCENT OF PATIENTS HAVE A CANCER-RELATED DIAGNOSIS WITH 65 PERCENT BEING HIGH-RISK PATIENTS RECEIVING AN INDIVIDUALIZED FORM OF TREATMENT AND 20 TO 15 PERCENT ARE FOLLOW-UP PATIENTS IN REMISSION. THE RADIATION ONCOLOGY DEPARTMENT SERVICES INPATIENTS, OUTPATIENTS AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENTS. RADIATION THERAPY IS WHOLLY THERAPEUTIC. TREATMENTS ARE CUSTOMIZED FOR EACH PATIENT IN ORDER TO CALCULATE THE CORRECT DOSE OF RADIATION AND TARGET THE TUMOR SITE TO DESTROY OR RETARD CELL GROWTH. EMPHASIS IS PLACED ON MINIMIZING THE SIDE EFFECTS TO SURROUNDING TISSUES AND STRUCTURES THAT DO NOT NEED IRRADIATED, WHILE MAXIMIZING THE RADIATION DOSE TO THE PRESCRIBED TUMOR SITE. THE TREATMENT PLANNING PHASE IS PERFORMED BY THE MEDICAL PHYSICIST AND DOSIMETRIST. THEY USE STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGY, INCLUDING A 3-D TREATMENT PLANNING SYSTEM, IN CALCULATING THE DAILY DOSE THAT WILL BE USED TO ACCURATELY DELIVER THE PATIENT'S TREATMENT. MANY FACTORS ARE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION DURING THIS PROCESS, INCLUDING THE PATIENT'S ANATOMY AND EXTENT OF DISEASE. THE RADIATION THERAPISTS THEN USE ALL OF THIS INFORMATION TO SET UP THE PATIENT, AND TO PROGRAM THE LINEAR ACCELERATOR TO DELIVER THE PRESCRIBED DAILY RADIATION TREATMENT. THIS IS ACHIEVED THROUGH COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY THAT AUTOMATICALLY DOWNLOADS THE TREATMENT INFORMATION AND CUSTOMIZES THE SHAPE OF THE BEAM TO BLOCK OUT AREAS THAT DO NOT NEED TO BE TREATED. |
| FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6I CONTINUED | THE RADIATION ONCOLOGY DEPARTMENT OFFERS THE LATEST ADVANCEMENT IN CANCER THERAPIES USING EXTERNAL BEAM RADIATION THERAPY (EBRT), HIGH-DOSE (HDR) AND LOW-DOSE (LDR) BRACHYTHERAPY TO TARGET CANCER CELLS, WHILE ALSO SPARING HEALTHY TISSUES AND ORGANS. EXTERNAL BEAM RADIATION THERAPY USES THE LINEAR ACCELERATOR TO DELIVER HIGH DOSES OF RADIATION IN INNOVATIVE THERAPIES SUCH AS STEREOTACTIC RADIOSURGERY, STEREOTACTIC BODY RADIATION THERAPY, INTENSITY MODULATED RADIATION THERAPY AND IMAGE GUIDED RADIATION THERAPY. HDR BRACHYTHERAPY IS A TYPE OF INTERNAL RADIATION THERAPY THAT DELIVERS HIGH DOSES OF RADIATION FROM IMPLANTS PLACED CLOSE TO, OR INSIDE, THE TUMOR(S) IN THE BODY. BRACHYTHERAPY OFFERS A QUICKER, MORE EFFECTIVE WAY TO GIVE RADIATION TREATMENT FOR SOME PATIENTS. ACCORDING TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY, IN TERMS OF BREAST CANCER, EARLY DETECTION IS ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO SAVE LIVES. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL HAS BEEN DESIGNATED A BREAST IMAGING CENTER OF EXCELLENCE BY THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF RADIOLOGY (ACR). MVH IS THE ONLY HOSPITAL IN WASHINGTON COUNTY TO EARN THIS DESIGNATION. BY AWARDING FACILITIES THE STATUS OF A BREAST IMAGING CENTER OF EXCELLENCE, THE ACR RECOGNIZES BREAST IMAGING CENTERS THAT HAVE EARNED ACCREDITATION IN MAMMOGRAPHY, STEREOTACTIC BREAST BIOPSY AND BREAST ULTRASOUND (INCLUDING ULTRASOUND-GUIDED BREAST BIOPSY). PEER-REVIEW EVALUATIONS CONDUCTED IN EACH BREAST IMAGING MODALITY BY BOARD-CERTIFIED PHYSICIANS AND MEDICAL PHYSICISTS WHO ARE EXPERTS IN THE FIELD DETERMINED THAT MVH HAS ACHIEVED HIGH PRACTICE STANDARDS IN IMAGE QUALITY, PERSONNEL QUALIFICATIONS, FACILITY EQUIPMENT, QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES AND QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAMS. THE BREAST IMAGING CENTER OF EXCELLENCE DESIGNATION INDICATES THAT MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL'S PATIENTS RECEIVE THE SAME HIGH LEVEL OF DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING SERVICES AS PEOPLE WHO GO TO SOME OF THE COUNTRY'S MOST RENOWNED HEALTH CENTER. IN ADDITION, MVH OFFERS A CONTINUUM OF CARE FROM IMAGING AND DIAGNOSIS THROUGH THE LATEST ADVANCEMENTS IN THERAPIES. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL'S MAMMOGRAPHY DEPARTMENT PASSED THE MAMMOGRAPHY QUALITY STANDARDS ACT (MQSA) INSPECTION. THE MQSA REQUIRES MAMMOGRAPHY FACILITIES ACROSS THE NATION TO MEET UNIFORM QUALITY STANDARDS TO ASSURE EARLY BREAST CANCER DETECTION. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL SPONSORS TWO ANNUAL EVENTS TO EDUCATE AND SCREEN WOMAN FOR BREAST CANCER. EACH OCTOBER, THE HOSPITAL HOSTS A FREE BREAST SCREENING AND EDUCATION EVENT. NATALIE FURGIUELE-IRACKI, M.D., WHO IS A BREAST SURGEON, ADDRESSES THE AUDIENCE. FOLLOWING THE OPTIONAL PHYSICAL BREAST EXAMS BY MEMBERS OF THE HOSPITAL'S MEDICAL STAFF, A MAMMOGRAM WILL BE SCHEDULED FOR ANY WOMAN WHO HAS AN ABNORMAL FINDING DURING THE SCREENING. ROUTINE YEARLY MAMMOGRAMS MAY ALSO BE SCHEDULED FOR WOMEN WHO HAVE A FAMILY HISTORY OF BREAST CANCER, WHO FALL INTO A HIGH-RISK CATEGORY, AND WHO HAVE NEVER HAD A BASELINE MAMMOGRAM OR WHO MEET THE RECOMMENDED AGE GUIDELINES. IN 2015, THE EVENT WAS HELD ON OCTOBER 28. THE SECOND EVENT, MAMM & GLAMM, IS HELD IN THE SPRING AT THE MON-VALE HEALTHPLEX FOR WOMEN WHO HAVE PRESCRIPTIONS FOR MAMMOGRAMS. PARTICIPANTS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THEIR SCREENINGS IN A RELAXING ATMOSPHERE AND THEN ENJOY FREE PAMPERING THAT INCLUDES MASSAGES, NAIL TREATMENTS AND MORE. THE 2015 EVENT WAS HELD ON APRIL 18. IN ADDITION, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL OFFERS A BREAST CANCER SUPPORT GROUP THAT IS FREE AND OPEN TO ALL BREAST CANCER PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. THE GROUP MEETS YEAR ROUND THE FIRST MONDAY OF EACH MONTH. ON JUNE 7, 2015 (NATIONAL CANCER SURVIVORS' DAY), MVH HOSTED A FREE PICNIC CELEBRATION FOR ALL CANCER SURVIVORS REGARDLESS OF WHERE THEY RECEIVED THEIR CANCER TREATMENT. MORE THAN 1,000 PEOPLE ATTENDED THIS FREE EVENT. THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE, WWW.MONVALLEYHOSPITAL.COM, PROVIDES EDUCATIONAL INFORMATION TO THE COMMUNITY RELATED TO BREAST CANCER. TOPICS INCLUDE: BREAST ABSCESS, BREAST BIOPSY - STEREOTACTIC, BREAST BIOPSY - ULTRASOUND, BREAST CANCER, BREAST CONSERVATION SURGERY, BREAST LUMP, BREAST LUMP REMOVAL, BREAST MASS, BREAST MRI SCAN, BREAST PET SCAN, BREAST POSITRON EMISSION TOMOGRAPHY, BREAST RADIATION, BREAST RECONSTRUCTION, BREAST REMOVAL, BREAST SELF-EXAM, BREAST SPARING SURGERY AND BREAST ULTRASOUND. COLORECTAL CANCER DEATHS AND INVASIVE COLORECTAL CANCER THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY REPORTS THAT EXCLUDING SKIN CANCERS, COLORECTAL CANCER IS THE THIRD MOST COMMON CANCER DIAGNOSED IN MEN AND WOMEN IN THE UNITED STATES. ACCORDING TO THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, OF CANCERS AFFECTING BOTH MEN AND WOMEN, COLORECTAL CANCER IS THE SECOND LEADING CANCER KILLER IN THE UNITED STATES. EACH SPRING, MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL CONDUCTS FREE COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENINGS. MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY RECEIVE KITS THAT THEY USE AND RETURN TO THE HOSPITAL FOR TESTING. THE 2015 EVENT WAS HELD APRIL 29, WITH 50 PEOPLE IN ATTENDANCE. ANDREW J. ZAHALSKY, M.D., MVH'S DIRECTOR OF MEDICAL ONCOLOGY, LED A DISCUSSION AND PROVIDED INFORMATION ON TREATMENTS FOR COLORECTAL CANCER. THE PARTICIPANTS WERE GIVEN A FREE TAKE-HOME COLORECTAL SCREENING KIT TO TEST FOR BLOOD IN THE STOOL. IN ADDITION, THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE, MONVALLEYHOSPITAL.COM, INCLUDES A HEALTH LIBRARY THAT OFFERS INFORMATION AND IMAGES RELATED TO COLON CANCER, COLORECTAL POLYPS, RECTAL ABSCESSES, RECTAL CANCER AND RECTAL LUMPS. LUNG CANCER DEATHS ACCORDING TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY (ACS), LUNG CANCER, BOTH SMALL CELL AND NON-SMALL CELL, IS THE SECOND MOST COMMON CANCER IN BOTH MEN AND WOMEN (NOT COUNTING SKIN CANCER). THE ACS ESTIMATES THAT THERE WERE APPROXIMATELY 224,210 CASES OF LUNG CANCER IN THE UNITED STATES LAST YEAR AND AN ESTIMATED 159,260 DEATHS. LUNG CANCER ACCOUNTS FOR ABOUT 27 PERCENT OF ALL CANCER DEATHS AND IS BY FAR THE LEADING CAUSE OF CANCER DEATH AMONG BOTH MEN AND WOMEN. EACH YEAR, MORE PEOPLE DIE OF LUNG CANCER THAN OF COLON, BREAST, AND PROSTATE CANCERS COMBINED. LUNG CANCER MAINLY OCCURS IN OLDER PEOPLE. ABOUT TWO OUT OF THREE PEOPLE DIAGNOSED WITH LUNG CANCER ARE 65 OR OLDER; FEWER THAN 2 PERCENT OF ALL CASES ARE FOUND IN PEOPLE YOUNGER THAN 45. THE AVERAGE AGE AT THE TIME OF DIAGNOSIS IS ABOUT 70. OVERALL, THE CHANCE THAT A MAN WILL DEVELOP LUNG CANCER IN HIS LIFETIME IS ABOUT 1 IN 13; FOR A WOMAN, THE RISK IS ABOUT 1 IN 16. THESE NUMBERS INCLUDE BOTH SMOKERS AND NON-SMOKERS. FOR SMOKERS THE RISK IS MUCH HIGHER, WHILE FOR NON-SMOKERS THE RISK IS LOWER. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL IS POISED TO MAKE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON THE REDUCTION OF LUNG CANCER DEATHS AS IDENTIFIED IN THE RECENT COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THE HOSPITAL HAS MANY HEALTH AND WELLNESS TOOLS AVAILABLE AS IT TACKLES THIS DISEASE RANGING FROM DIAGNOSIS TO TREATMENT. MOHSEN ISAAC, M.D., MEDICAL DIRECTOR OF RADIATION ONCOLOGY AT MVH, AND CLINICAL ASSISTANT PROFESSOR AT TEMPLE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE, IS ONE OF THE FEW PHYSICIANS WHO USES AN INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUE TO TREAT HIGH-RISK PATIENTS WITH EARLY STAGE, NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER. DR. ISAAC HAS RECORDED PROVEN SUCCESS IMPLANTING LOW-DOSE RADIOACTIVE IODINE SEEDS PERMANENTLY INTO THE LUNGS OF PEOPLE WITH STAGE 1 LUNG CANCER. THE TREATMENT, WHICH IS PRIMARILY USED ON PATIENTS WITH LIMITED HEART/LUNG FUNCTION, REDUCES RECURRENCES. THIS NEW RADIATION THERAPY TECHNIQUE NOT ONLY ALLOWS LESS LOSS OF THE LUNG, BUT IN FACT, PRESERVES MORE LUNG FUNCTION WITH LESS BREATHING PROBLEMS. MONONGAHELA VALLEY HOSPITAL WAS THE FIRST AND ONLY HOSPITAL IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA TO OFFER RADIATION THERAPY TREATMENTS USING THE ELEKTA AGILITY THAT INCLUDES A MULTI-LEAF COLLIMATOR (MLC) DEVICE THAT PROVIDES PRECISE, HIGH-RESOLUTION BEAM SHAPING TO TARGET TUMORS. USE OF THE MLC DEVICE ENABLES MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS AT MVH TO ADMINISTER HIGHER DOSES OF RADIATION AT MULTIPLE SITES SIMULTANEOUSLY. IT DELIVERS RADIATION TO THE UNIQUE CONTOURS OF THE TUMOR WHILE REDUCING THE RISK OF EXPOSURE TO HEALTHY TISSUE. AN MLC IS A DEVICE COMPOSED OF MANY INDIVIDUAL TUNGSTEN "LEAVES" THAT SHAPE BEAMS OF THERAPEUTIC RADIATION THAT ARE DELIVERED FROM DIFFERENT ANGLES AROUND THE PATIENT. THE AGILITY IS EQUIPPED WITH 160 MLCS WHICH IS TWICE THE NUMBER OF LEAVES USED IN MOST TYPICAL TREATMENT CENTERS. IT ALSO INCLUDES ULTRA-FAST LEAF MOVEMENTS. THE HOSPITAL'S MLC INCLUDES TWICE THE NUMBER OF LEAVES AND IS TWICE AS FAST, IT REDUCES TREATMENT TIMES BY MORE THAN HALF. PATIENTS ARE NOT ONLY TREATED FASTER, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, THEY BENEFIT FROM THE MLC'S ENHANCED TARGETING CAPABILITIES WHICH IMPROVE TREATMENT OUTCOMES AND REDUCE ORGAN AT RISK POTENTIAL COMPLICATIONS. ADDITIONALLY, SHORTER TREATMENT TIMES RESULT IN INCREASED PATIENT COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE. IT ALSO ALLOWS FASTER AND SAFER STEREOTACTIC BODY RADIOSURGERY AND VOLUMETRIC ARC THERAPY (VMAT). |
| FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6I CONTINUED | AT MVH, SKILLED ONCOLOGISTS, SURGEONS, NURSES, RADIATION THERAPISTS, SOCIAL WORKERS, NUTRITIONISTS, PHARMACISTS AND CASE MANAGEMENT COORDINATORS HELP PATIENTS WIN THE BATTLE AGAINST LUNG CANCER USING ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY WITH A PERSONALIZED APPROACH. IN ADDITION TO THE IMAGE-GUIDED RADIATION THERAPY, MVH OFFERS: STEREOTACTIC RADIOSURGERY (SRS) - STEREOTACTIC RADIOSURGERY IS A NON-SURGICAL PROCEDURE THAT DELIVERS PRECISELY TARGETED RADIATION AT MUCH HIGHER DOSES IN A SINGLE OR FEW TREATMENTS. IT FOCUSES HIGH-POWERED X-RAYS ON A SMALL AREA, TARGETING THE ABNORMAL AREA. SRS CAN BEST BE DESCRIBED AS "SURGERY WITHOUT A KNIFE AND IT IS COMPARABLE TO GAMMA KNIFE THERAPY THAT IS USED FOR VARIOUS TYPES OF CANCERS. IT IS TYPICALLY USED FOR SMALL ISOLATED TUMORS AND IS USUALLY GIVEN IN MORE THAN ONE DOSE. HIGH-DOSE RATE RADIATION THERAPY - HIGH-DOSE RATE (HDR) RADIATION THERAPY IS A FORM OF BRACHYTHERAPY, OR INTERNAL RADIATION THERAPY, WHICH INVOLVES THE PLACEMENT OF A HIGH-ENERGY RADIATION SOURCE INSIDE THE BODY NEAR THE TUMOR FOR BRIEF PERIODS OF TIME. HDR RADIATION THERAPY, WHICH IS USUALLY PERFORMED AS A SHORT SERIES OF OUTPATIENT PROCEDURES, ALLOWS HIGHLY LOCALIZED DOSES OF RADIATION TO BE DELIVERED TO THE TUMOR QUICKLY. MVH'S HDR PROGRAM USES A RADIOACTIVE SOURCE THAT IS IMPLANTED INTO THE PATIENT'S BODY VIA CATHETERS TO TARGET THE CANCER SITE. HIGH-DOSE RADIATION THERAPY IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR EVERY PATIENT; HOWEVER, IT IS ANOTHER TREATMENT OPTION FOR LUNG CANCER. VOLUMETRIC ARC THERAPY (VMAT) - VOLUMETRIC ARC THERAPY USES SINGLE OR MULTIPLE RADIATION BEAMS TO SWEEP IN UNINTERRUPTED ARCS AROUND THE PATIENT TO DRAMATICALLY SPEED THE TREATMENT DELIVERY AND REDUCE TREATMENT TIMES FROM THE 8 TO 12 MINUTES REQUIRED FOR "CONVENTIONAL" RADIATION THERAPY TO AS FEW AS TWO MINUTES. 4-D IMAGING - FOUR-DIMENSIONAL CT IMAGING IS ONE OF THE LATEST ADVANCES IN CANCER THERAPY. 4-D CT TAKES IMAGES THAT CAPTURE THE LOCATION OF THE TUMOR, ITS MOVEMENT, AND THE MOVEMENT OF THE BODY'S ORGANS TO ACCURATELY TREAT TUMORS LOCATED ON OR NEAR ORGANS THAT MOVE. THE SCAN ENABLES RADIATION ONCOLOGISTS TO DEVELOP MORE ACCURATE TREATMENTS FOR MOVING TUMORS, TO BETTER TARGET MOVING TUMORS, TO DELIVER RADIATION WITHIN A CERTAIN INTERVAL IN THE BREATHING CYCLE, AND TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TREATMENT SIDE EFFECTS. MVH IS AMONG THE FIRST HOSPITALS IN THE REGION TO USE THE SPIN THORACIC NAVIGATION SYSTEM IN THE DETECTION OF LUNG CANCER. THE SPIN THORACIC NAVIGATION SYSTEM IS THE ONLY SYSTEM IN THE WORLD THAT ALLOWS PHYSICIANS TO ACCURATELY ACCESS SMALL LUNG LESIONS VIA MULTIPLE APPROACHES. THIS ASSISTS PHYSICIANS IN DETECTING LUNG CANCER EARLIER AND WITHOUT THE NEED FOR INCISIONS OR MULTIPLE HOSPITAL VISITS FOR DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES. THE SCREENING BEGINS WITH A LOW-DOSE CT SCAN. IF THE SCAN REVEALS A SUSPICIOUS MARK OR A LESION, A CT IMAGE OF THE PATIENT'S AIRWAYS IS USED TO PLAN THE ROUTE TO THE ABNORMALITY. THE COMPUTERIZED THORACIC NAVIGATION SYSTEM IS THEN USED TO AUTOMATICALLY REGISTER THE PATIENT'S UNIQUE ANATOMY AND ADVANCE THE INSTRUMENT TOWARD THE MARK OR LESION IN THE LUNG. THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONS SIMILARLY TO A VEHICLE'S GPS SYSTEM BECAUSE IT PROVIDES A DETAILED ROUTE TO THE SITE OF THE LESION. ONCE THE INSTRUMENT REACHES THE SITE, THE PHYSICIAN TAKES BIOPSIES OF THE LESION WHILE THE INSTRUMENT IS IN PLACE. THE NAVIGATION AND BIOPSY PROCESS TAKES APPROXIMATELY 30 TO 45 MINUTES. MVH HOSTED ITS FIRST LUNG CANCER EDUCATION PROGRAM TO COINCIDE WITH NATIONAL LUNG CANCER AWARENESS MONTH ON NOV. 10. AS PART OF THE HOSPITAL'S MISSION OF ENHANCING THE HEALTH OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE MID MONONGAHELA VALLEY AREA, THERE IS A STRONG FOCUS ON PREVENTION AND EDUCATION.

OBESITY, FRUITS AND VEGETABLE CONSUMPTION, RECOMMENDED ACTIVITY PEOPLE WHO EAT FRUITS AND VEGETABLES AS PART OF THEIR DAILY DIET HAVE A REDUCED RISK OF MANY CHRONIC DISEASES. A DIET RICH IN FRUITS AND VEGETABLES CAN LOWER BLOOD PRESSURE, REDUCE THE RISK OF HEART DISEASE AND STROKE, PREVENT SOME TYPES OF CANCER, LOWER THE RISK OF EYE AND DIGESTIVE PROBLEMS AND HAVE A POSITIVE EFFECT ON BLOOD SUGAR.
