| THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 3J: LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL COMPLETES A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT EVERY THREE YEARS. INFORMATION FOR THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT WAS COLLECTED FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES, IN THREE DIFFERENT WAYS: (1) FOCUS GROUPS, (2) KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS, AND (3) A REVIEW OF PUBLICLY COLLECTED HEALTH AND DEMOGRAPHIC STATISTICS FROM THE MASSCHIP DATABASE. THERE WERE 14 FOCUS GROUPS WITH A TOTAL OF 113 PARTICIPANTS-MAJORITY WERE CONDUCTED IN ENGLISH, BUT CAMBODIAN COMMUNITY GROUP WAS CONDUCTED IN KHMER AND THE LATINO GROUP IN SPANISH. THE UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL CONDUCTED SIX KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS. |
| THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: ON BEHALF OF LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL, UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL (UML) AND THE GREATER LOWELL HEALTH ALLIANCE (GLHA), A TEAM OF UMASS LOWELL RESEARCHERS AND STUDENTS CONDUCTED A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT STUDY TO DISTINGUISH THE UNMET MEDICAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH NEEDS WITHIN THE GREATER LOWELL COMMUNITY. THE GEOGRAPHIC AREA ASSESSED INCLUDED THE COMMUNITIES OF LOWELL, BILLERICA, CHELMSFORD, DRACUT, DUNSTABLE, TEWKSBURY, TYNGSBOROUGH AND WESTFORD. THE STUDY HAD SEVERAL OBJECTIVES, WHICH WERE TO: ASSESS THE OVERALL HEALTH OF AREA RESIDENTS, IDENTIFY THE STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF THE LOCAL HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, DETERMINE THE TOP HEALTH PROBLEMS FACING AREA RESIDENTS AND THE POPULATIONS AT GREATEST RISK, INVOLVE A BROAD SPECTRUM OF PROFESSIONALS AND RESIDENTS, INCLUDING NEWER IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES, PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM AND ADDRESS UNMET HEALTH NEEDS, AND INFORM THE PROCESS TO IDENTIFY PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS AND DEVELOP ACTION PLANS TO ADDRESS THESE PRIORITY NEEDS.INFORMATION FOR THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT WAS COLLECTED FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES, IN THREE DIFFERENT WAYS: (1) FOCUS GROUPS, (2) KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS, AND (3) A REVIEW OF PUBLICLY COLLECTED HEALTH AND DEMOGRAPHIC STATISTICS FROM THE MASSCHIP DATABASE. THERE WERE 14 FOCUS GROUPS WITH A TOTAL OF 113 PARTICIPANTS-MAJORITY WERE CONDUCTED IN ENGLISH, BUT CAMBODIAN COMMUNITY GROUP WAS CONDUCTED IN KHMER AND THE LATINO GROUP IN SPANISH. THE UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL CONDUCTED SIX KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS.MORE THAN 50 GREATER LOWELL PROFESSIONALS PARTICIPATED IN THE FOCUS GROUPS AND PERSONAL INTERVIEWS - INCLUDING SCHOOL NURSES, HOSPITAL EXECUTIVES, TOWN MANAGERS AND LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT DIRECTORS, AS WELL AS INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING THE COUNCILS OF AGING, SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES AND VARIOUS COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS. THESE INDIVIDUALS WERE ASKED TO SPEAK TO THE STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF THE AREA'S HEALTH SYSTEM AND SUGGEST CHANGES TO IMPROVE IT.THE HEALTH AND DEMOGRAPHIC DATA AVAILABLE WITHIN THE GREATER LOWELL AREA WAS THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATED, FOCUSING SUBSTANTIALLY ON THE ISSUES OR PROBLEMS INDICATED FROM THE PERSONAL AND FOCUS GROUP INTERVIEWS, AS WELL AS THE PUBLIC HEALTH DATA AND STATISTICS. THESE DATA INDICATED THAT THE GREATER LOWELL AREA SAW A DOUBLING OF THE RATE OF MENTAL HEALTH HOSPITALIZATIONS BETWEEN 1989 AND 2006. IN ADDITION, LOWELL HAS SEEN INCREASES IN PROBLEMATIC ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION AND OPIATE-RELATED MORTALITY. THE EXPERIENCE IN THE LOWELL AREA WAS ALSO COMPARED, AS APPROPRIATE, WITH THE STATEWIDE EXPERIENCE. IN SO DOING, WE FOUND THAT THE USE OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT SERVICES IN LOWELL IS 39% HIGHER THAN THE STATE AVERAGE IN MOST RECENT DATA AVAILABLE, 2002 THROUGH 2005. WHEN RELIABLE INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE, WE ADDITIONALLY EXAMINED THE COMPARATIVE EXPERIENCE OF DIFFERENT DEMOGRAPHIC SUBGROUPS. THE MORTALITY RATE AMONG ASIAN-AMERICANS IN THE GREATER LOWELL AREA, FOR EXAMPLE, WAS NEARLY TWICE AS HIGH AS THE MASSACHUSETTS AVERAGE FOR THIS GROUP. IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION ON HEALTHCARE CONCERNS VOICED BY VARIOUS STUDY RESPONDENTS, THE DATA ANALYSIS ALSO INDICATED OTHER IMPORTANT FINDINGS, MOST IMPORTANTLY, THAT THE PROPORTION OF INDIVIDUALS IN LOWELL WITHOUT HEALTH INSURANCE INCREASED SUBSTANTIALLY BETWEEN 2000 AND 2008. |
| THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6B: LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL CONDUCTED THE LAST COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT WITH RESEARCHERS AND STUDENTS OF UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL (UML) AND THE GREATER LOWELL HEALTH ALLIANCE (GLHA). |
| THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: THE TOP HEALTH PROBLEMS THAT WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS AND SUPPORTED BY PUBLIC HEALTH DATA INCLUDE MENTAL HEALTH, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, DIABETES, OBESITY, RESPIRATORY DISEASES (E.G. ASTHMA AND CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE), CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE, AND HEPATITIS B IN THE CAMBODIAN COMMUNITY. THE HOSPITAL IS ADDRESSING THE SIGNIFICANT NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE LATEST COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT BY INCORPORATING THESE INTO THE ORGANIZATION'S ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN IS AN ACTION PLAN DEVELOPED ANNUALLY BY HOSPITAL LEADERS TO ADDRESS PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS WITHIN THE GREATER LOWELL REGION. LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL AND THE GREATER LOWELL HEALTH ALLIANCE ARE COMMITTED TO A COLLABORATIVE APPROACH INVOLVING OTHER COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS WITH THE GOAL TO IDENTIFY TOP PRIORITIES AND FORMULATE ACTION STEPS THAT WILL IMPROVE THE AREA HEALTHCARE SYSTEM AND OVERALL COMMUNITY HEALTH.THE MAJOR WEAKNESSES IDENTIFIED IN THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT INCLUDE MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS THAT ARE NOT BEING MET, INSUFFICIENT CULTURAL AWARENESS, THE OVERALL HEALTHCARE APPROACH, COORDINATION PROBLEMS, OVERRELIANCE ON MEDICATION, AND INADEQUATE OUTREACH EFFORTS. IN ADDITION, FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS FROM THE 2013 NEEDS ASSESSMENT INDICATED THAT THERE IS NOT ENOUGH AVAILABILITY OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS: THERAPISTS, SPECIALISTS, HOME CARE, DENTISTS, PEDIATRIC DENTISTS, GERIATRIC PHYSICIANS, AND PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS FOR ALTERNATIVE FAMILIES. THEY ALSO INDICATED THAT THERE ARE INADEQUATE SERVICES IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS: INTERPRETER SERVICES, EMERGENCY SERVICES, GERIATRICS, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, URGENT CARE, WALK-IN CLINICS, AND LGBTQ SERVICES. |
| THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 13B: PATIENTS WHOSE HOUSEHOLD INCOME EXCEEDS 400% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES AND WHO MEET HEALTH SAFETY NET INCOME CRITERIA FOR MEDICAL HARDSHIP AND HAVE BALANCES (AFTER FREE CARE) OF $10,000 OR MORE. SPECIFICALLY, THESE PATIENTS MAY (1) BE ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAL HARDSHIP ASSISTANCE UNDER THE HEALTH SAFETY NET BUT HAVE PATIENT CONTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS GREATER THAN $10,000 OR (2) MEET THE MEDICAL HARDSHIP INCOME CRITERIA, BUT ARE INELIGIBLE FOR FREE CARE BECAUSE THE SERVICES RECEIVED ARE NOT HOSPITAL-LICENSED SERVICES. IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES:(I)FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WILL BE DETERMINED AFTER A REVIEW OF ALL FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND CIRCUMSTANCES.(II)FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WILL GENERALLY REDUCE AN OUTSTANDING BALANCE TO 15% OF ANNUAL INCOME ABSENT SIGNIFICANT ASSETS.(III)FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UP TO 100% WILL BE CONSIDERED BASED ON THE PATIENT'S PARTICULAR MEDICAL AND FINANCIAL CIRCUMSTANCES AND MUST BE APPROVED BY THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL VICE PRESIDENT OF REVENUE OR VP FINANCE/CFO OR HIS/HER DESIGNEE. |

| SCHEDULE H-PART I | PART I, LINE 6A & B: THE ORGANIZATION PREPARES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT EVERY YEAR. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT ANNUAL REPORT IS AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC ON THE ORGANIZATION'S WEBSITE OR UPON REQUEST. |
| PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: | THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL PARTICIPATES IN COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES IN MANY WAYS. TO HELP IMPROVE THE HEALTH STATUS OF OUR COMMUNITY WE RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF ACCESS TO CARE. TO HELP MEET THIS NEED, THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL EVALUATES THE AVAILABILITY OF PRIMARY CARE AND SPECIALISTS TO OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND ACTIVELY RECRUITS PHYSICIANS TO FILL GAPS. THESE GAPS OFTEN INCLUDE RECRUITMENT OF MULTI-LINGUAL PHYSICIANS AND THOSE WHO HAVE SPECIALTIES IN IDENTIFIED HEALTH NEEDS FOR OUR COMMUNITY. THE LOWELL GENERAL PROVIDES BOTH FINANCIAL AND PRACTICE MANAGEMENT SUPPORT TO THESE PHYSICIANS. THIS ENHANCES THE COMMUNITIES' ABILITY TO ACCESS EXCELLENT PRIMARY AND SPECIALTY CARE IN A LOCAL SETTING.THE LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL HAS A CLOSE WORKING RELATIONSHIP THAT INCLUDES FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO LOWELL COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER (LCHC) WHICH SERVES THE LOW-INCOME, MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED POPULATION, MANY OF WHOM HAVE NO OTHER ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE SERVICES. THE MAJORITY OF PATIENTS SERVED BY LCHC HAVE MASSHEALTH, ANOTHER 10% HAVE PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE OR HMO COVERAGE, 7% HAVE MEDICARE, AND 20% ARE UNINSURED; AND 95% LIVE AT OR BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL. ALMOST HALF OF LCHC'S PATIENT POPULATION IS UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE, AND THE MAJORITY OF WOMEN ARE IN THEIR CHILDBEARING YEARS. IN 2007, 37% OF PATIENTS WERE WHITE/NON-HISPANIC; 28% WERE LATINO; 27% WERE ASIAN (PRIMARILY CAMBODIANS) AND 8% WERE AFRICAN IMMIGRANTS. ALMOST 60% OF PATIENTS WERE BEST SERVED IN A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH. SOME OF THE MAJOR SERVICES THAT LCHC PROVIDES ARE - CARINO, WHICH PROVIDES SPECIAL CARE FOR PATIENTS WITH HIV/AIDS; PROMOTORAS PROGRAMS, WHICH ARE TRAINED COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS AND VOLUNTEERS WHO SPEAK SPANISH AND/OR PORTUGUESE AND GO THROUGH AN INTENSIVE TRAINING WITH LCHC STAFF ON SPECIFIC HEALTH TOPICS TO EDUCATE THE COMMUNITY; LCHC TEEN COALITION AND ADOLESCENT HEALTH PROGRAM, WHICH COVERS EVERYTHING FROM MENTAL HEALTH AND SELF-ESTEEM ISSUES AMONG GIRLS TO EDUCATING AND INVOLVING YOUTH IN SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION AND A JOURNEY TO HEALING PROGRAM FOR REFUGEE CHILDREN AND CHILDREN OF REFUGEES. WITHOUT THE LOWELL GENERAL'S FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO LCHC'S PENSION AND WORKER'S COMPENSATION PROGRAM, MANY OF THESE PROGRAMS WOULD NOT HAVE ADEQUATE FUNDING. |
| PART III, LINE 4: | THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING FOOTNOTE WHICH IS PROVIDED TO DESCRIBE CHARITY CARE: THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY. THESE PATIENTS MAY RECEIVE FULL ASSISTANCE OR MAY BE SUBJECT TO PARTIAL LIABILITY BASED ON INCOME AND FAMILY SIZE. BECAUSE THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT EXPECT PAYMENT OR PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, SUCH AMOUNTS ARE NOT REPORTED AS NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE.THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE AMOUNT DETAILED ON LINE 2 IS BASED ON THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO CALCULATED FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORT. REGARDING THE RATIONALE FOR INCLUDING THE AMOUNT ON LINE 3 AS CHARITY CARE, THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES AN ESTIMATE OF HOW MUCH IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PERSONS WHO WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE POLICIES, BUT HAVE NOT TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THAT IS AVAILABLE TO THEM. CURRENTLY THROUGH MANUAL PROCESSES IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SCREEN EVERY PATIENT TO MAKE AN INCOME STATUS DETERMINATION FOR QUALIFICATION TO THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY PROGRAM UNDER A PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY POLICY. THESE INDIVIDUALS THAT DO NOT SEEK OUT CHARITY PROGRAMS ARE OFTEN UNDERINSURED OR LOW INCOME AND DO NOT NECESSARILY CONSIDER THE BENEFIT OF THE PROCESS OF SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION TO THE HOSPITAL. THE HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO PROVIDE CARE TO THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE A HISTORY OF POOR CREDIT WITH THE FACILITY AND NEED MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES AS WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE ABILITY FOR THE COMMUNITY TO SEEK OUT QUALITY MEDICAL SERVICES IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE AND EXTENDS OUR CHARITABLE BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. WE BELIEVE THAT HAD THE QUALIFICATION PROCESS TAKEN PLACE THIS BAD DEBT WOULD BE CLASSIFIED IN THE CHARITY CARE OF THE HOSPITAL. SINCE THE QUALIFICATION PROCESS HAS NOT BEEN PERFORMED WE PROPERLY REPORT THIS AS BAD DEBT AS THE ACTUAL COST TO OUR HOSPITAL. |
| PART III, LINE 8: | THE MEDICARE COST REPORT DOES NOT INCLUDE ALLOCATION OF BAD DEBT AND INCLUDES OFFSETS OF $7.3 MILLION WHICH HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH MEDICARE PATIENTS. SUCH RECOVERIES INCLUDE DONATED FUNDS RELEASED FROM RESTRICTIONS, PHO REVENUE, BARIATRIC PROGRAM FEES, AND OTHER REVENUES. THIS EXPLAINS THE SURPLUS REPORTED ON LINE 8. |
| PART III, LINE 9B: | THERE ARE TWO DISTINCTIONS THAT ARE MADE FOR PATIENTS THAT ARE CONSIDERED EITHER LOW INCOME BY DEFINITION OF THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS ELIGIBILITY PROGRAM OR UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S INTERNAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM FOR CHARITY CARE. IF THE PATIENT IS DEEMED TO BE LOW INCOME BY THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS, ALL COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE CEASED ON PRIOR AND CURRENT BALANCE ACCOUNTS. WHERE APPROPRIATE, ACCOUNTS WILL BE WRITTEN OFF TO HOSPITAL CHARITY FOR THOSE ACCOUNTS THAT EXCEED THE RETROACTIVE LOOK BACK PERIOD. FOR PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR THE HOSPITAL'S INTERNAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, THE PROGRAM WILL QUALIFY THE PATIENT FOR MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES FOR THE PERIOD OF ONE YEAR IN WHICH THE ACCOUNT ACTIVITY OF THE PATIENT WILL BE WRITTEN OFF TO THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AND REPORTED AS CHARITY CARE. ALL COLLECTION ACTIVITIES ON PRIOR BALANCE ACCOUNTS CEASES AT THE POINT OF THIS QUALIFICATION. FINANCIAL COUNSELORS WORK CLOSELY WITH PATIENTS TO MONITOR THEIR CURRENT FINANCIAL STATUS TO DETERMINE ANY CHANGES IN QUALIFICATIONS FOR BOTH THE STATE AND HOSPITAL PROGRAMS. |
| PART VI, LINE 2: | ON BEHALF OF LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL, UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL (UML) AND THE GREATER LOWELL HEALTH ALLIANCE (GLHA), A TEAM OF UMASS LOWELL RESEARCHERS AND STUDENTS CONDUCTED A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT STUDY TO DISTINGUISH THE UNMET MEDICAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH NEEDS WITHIN THE GREATER LOWELL COMMUNITY. THE GEOGRAPHIC AREA ASSESSED INCLUDED THE COMMUNITIES OF LOWELL, BILLERICA, CHELMSFORD, DRACUT, DUNSTABLE, TEWKSBURY, TYNGSBOROUGH AND WESTFORD. THE STUDY HAD SEVERAL OBJECTIVES, WHICH WERE TO: ASSESS THE OVERALL HEALTH OF AREA RESIDENTS, IDENTIFY THE STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF THE LOCAL HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, DETERMINE THE TOP HEALTH PROBLEMS FACING AREA RESIDENTS AND THE POPULATIONS AT GREATEST RISK, INVOLVE A BROAD SPECTRUM OF PROFESSIONALS AND RESIDENTS, INCLUDING NEWER IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES, PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM AND ADDRESS UNMET HEALTH NEEDS, AND INFORM THE PROCESS TO IDENTIFY PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS AND DEVELOP ACTION PLANS TO ADDRESS THESE PRIORITY NEEDS.INFORMATION FOR THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT WAS COLLECTED FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES, IN THREE DIFFERENT WAYS: (1) FOCUS GROUPS, (2) KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS, AND (3) A REVIEW OF PUBLICLY COLLECTED HEALTH AND DEMOGRAPHIC STATISTICS FROM THE MASSCHIP DATABASE. THERE WERE 14 FOCUS GROUPS WITH A TOTAL OF 113 PARTICIPANTS-MAJORITY WERE CONDUCTED IN ENGLISH, BUT CAMBODIAN COMMUNITY GROUP WAS CONDUCTED IN KHMER AND THE LATINO GROUP IN SPANISH. THE UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL CONDUCTED SIX KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS.MORE THAN 50 GREATER LOWELL PROFESSIONALS PARTICIPATED IN THE FOCUS GROUPS AND PERSONAL INTERVIEWS - INCLUDING SCHOOL NURSES, HOSPITAL EXECUTIVES, TOWN MANAGERS AND LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT DIRECTORS, AS WELL AS INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING THE COUNCILS OF AGING, SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES AND VARIOUS COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS. THESE INDIVIDUALS WERE ASKED TO SPEAK TO THE STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF THE AREA'S HEALTH SYSTEM AND SUGGEST CHANGES TO IMPROVE IT.THE HEALTH AND DEMOGRAPHIC DATA AVAILABLE WITHIN THE GREATER LOWELL AREA WAS THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATED, FOCUSING SUBSTANTIALLY ON THE ISSUES OR PROBLEMS INDICATED FROM THE PERSONAL AND FOCUS GROUP INTERVIEWS, AS WELL AS THE PUBLIC HEALTH DATA AND STATISTICS. THESE DATA INDICATED THAT THE GREATER LOWELL AREA SAW A DOUBLING OF THE RATE OF MENTAL HEALTH HOSPITALIZATIONS BETWEEN 1989 AND 2006. IN ADDITION, LOWELL HAS SEEN INCREASES IN PROBLEMATIC ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION AND OPIATE-RELATED MORTALITY. THE EXPERIENCE IN THE LOWELL AREA WAS ALSO COMPARED, AS APPROPRIATE, WITH THE STATEWIDE EXPERIENCE. IN SO DOING, WE FOUND THAT THE USE OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT SERVICES IN LOWELL IS 39% HIGHER THAN THE STATE AVERAGE IN MOST RECENT DATA AVAILABLE, 2002 THROUGH 2005. WHEN RELIABLE INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE, WE ADDITIONALLY EXAMINED THE COMPARATIVE EXPERIENCE OF DIFFERENT DEMOGRAPHIC SUBGROUPS. THE MORTALITY RATE AMONG ASIAN-AMERICANS IN THE GREATER LOWELL AREA, FOR EXAMPLE, WAS NEARLY TWICE AS HIGH AS THE MASSACHUSETTS AVERAGE FOR THIS GROUP. IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION ON HEALTHCARE CONCERNS VOICED BY VARIOUS STUDY RESPONDENTS, THE DATA ANALYSIS ALSO INDICATED OTHER IMPORTANT FINDINGS, MOST IMPORTANTLY, THAT THE PROPORTION OF INDIVIDUALS IN LOWELL WITHOUT HEALTH INSURANCE INCREASED SUBSTANTIALLY BETWEEN 2000 AND 2008. THE NEXT COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT WILL BE COMPLETED IN 2016. |
| PART VI, LINE 3: | FOR THOSE PATIENTS WHO ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED, THE HOSPITAL WORKS WITH THEM TO ASSIST WITH APPLYING FOR AVAILABLE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS THAT MAY COVER SOME OR ALL OF THEIR UNPAID HOSPITAL BILLS. IN ORDER TO HELP UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED PATIENTS FIND AVAILABLE AND APPROPRIATE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS, THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES ALL PATIENTS WITH A GENERAL NOTICE OF THE AVAILABILITY OF PROGRAMS IN BOTH THE BILLS THAT ARE SENT TO PATIENTS AS WELL AS IN GENERAL NOTICES THAT ARE POSTED THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITAL. IN ADDITION TO GENERAL NOTICES, THERE ARE INFORMATIONAL BROCHURES AVAILABLE IN ACCESS AREAS AND DURING THE PROCESS OF REGISTRATION ANYONE THAT INDICATES THEY ARE HAVING TROUBLE PAYING THEIR BILLS OR WHO ARE UNINSURED ARE PROVIDED WITH A BUSINESS CARD THAT IDENTIFIES HOW TO CONTACT A PATIENT FINANCIAL COUNSELOR. ALL SIGNS AND NOTICES ARE TRANSLATED INTO LANGUAGES OTHER THAN ENGLISH IF SUCH LANGUAGE IS SPOKEN BY 10% OR MORE OF THE POPULATION RESIDING IN THE HOSPITAL SERVICE AREA. CURRENTLY, THE HOSPITAL TRANSLATES THE NOTICES INTO THE FOLLOWING LANGUAGES - SPANISH, PORTUGUESE, AND KHMER.THE HOSPITAL TRIES TO IDENTIFY AVAILABLE COVERAGE OPTIONS FOR PATIENTS WHO MAY BE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED WITH THEIR CURRENT INSURANCE PROGRAM WHEN THE PATIENT IS SCHEDULING THEIR SERVICES, WHILE THE PATIENT IS IN THE HOSPITAL, UPON DISCHARGE, AND FOR A REASONABLE TIME FOLLOWING DISCHARGE FROM THE HOSPITAL. THE HOSPITAL PATIENT ACCESS STAFF DIRECTS ALL PATIENTS SEEKING AVAILABLE COVERAGE OPTIONS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO THE HOSPITAL'S PATIENT FINANCIAL COUNSELING OFFICE TO DETERMINE IF THEY ARE ELIGIBLE AND THEN TO SCREEN FOR ELIGIBILITY IN AN APPROPRIATE COVERAGE OPTION. THE HOSPITAL ASSISTS THE PATIENT IN APPLYING FOR THE APPROPRIATE COVERAGE OPTIONS THAT ARE AVAILABLE OR NOTIFY THEM OF THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH THE HOSPITAL'S OWN INTERNAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. |
| PART VI, LINE 4: | THE CITY OF LOWELL WAS FOUNDED IN 1820 AS A PLANNED INDUSTRIAL COMMUNITY ALONG THE BANKS OF THE MERRIMACK RIVER WHOSE ECONOMY WAS BASED ON TEXTILE MANUFACTURING. BY THE 1850'S, IT HAD BECOME THE LARGEST INDUSTRIAL CENTER IN THE UNITED STATES AND THE SECOND LARGEST CITY IN NEW ENGLAND. MUCH OF THE POPULATION GROWTH IN LOWELL WAS ATTRIBUTABLE TO IMMIGRATION, WHICH NEW RESIDENTS COMING FROM MANY PARTS OF EUROPE AND FRENCH-SPEAKING CANADA, CREATING AN ETHNICALLY DIVERSE COMMUNITY. DURING THIS PERIOD, LOWELL SERVED AS A REGIONAL ECONOMIC ENGINE, PROVIDING GOODS AND SERVICES TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES, WHICH RETAINED A LARGELY AGRICULTURAL ECONOMY INTO THE EARLY 1900'S. BY THE 1920'S, HOWEVER, LOWELL HAD GONE INTO ECONOMIC DECLINE AS THE U.S. TEXTILE INDUSTRY MOVED SOUTH, AND BY THE END OF THE 1950'S ALL OF THE TEXTILE MILLS HAD CLOSED. IN THE 1970'S, WANG LABORATORIES LOCATED ITS HEADQUARTERS IN THE CITY AND SPURRED A TEMPORARY ECONOMIC REVIVAL, WHICH COLLAPSED WHEN THE COMPANY FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY IN 1992. WHILE THE URBAN CORE HAS BEEN REDEVELOPED AS A RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY, WITH FORMER TEXTILE MILLS BEING REHABILITATED AS CONDOMINIUMS AND APARTMENTS, LOWELL LACKS A STRONG INDUSTRIAL BASE. IN A LARGE MEASURE, THE EMERGENCE OF A HIGH TECHNOLOGY AND BIOMEDICAL ECONOMIC BASE IN EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS COINCIDED WITH A DECENTRALIZATION OF DEVELOPMENT AND URBAN PLANNING, WITH MANY NEW BUSINESSES LOCATING OUTSIDE CITY CENTERS, ALONG TRANSPORTATION CORRIDORS (E.G., ROUTES 128 AND 495). WHILE LOWELL STILL PROVIDES REGIONAL SERVICES NOT AVAILABLE IN THE SMALLER COMMUNITIES - HEALTHCARE, EDUCATION AND ENTERTAINMENT - MUCH OF THE AREA'S RECENT JOB GROWTH HAS COME FROM THE HIGH TECHNOLOGY SECTOR IN NEARBY TOWNS SUCH AS BILLERICA, CHELMSFORD, TEWKSBURY AND WESTFORD.IN THE 1980'S, THE CITY OF LOWELL WAS DESIGNATED AS A REFUGEE AND RESETTLEMENT AREA FOR CAMBODIANS IN THE WAKE OF THE ATROCITIES COMMITTED BY THE KHMER ROUGE REGIME. TODAY, LOWELL IS HOME TO THE SECOND LARGEST CAMBODIAN POPULATION WITHIN THE U.S. IN ADDITION, MANY OF THE AMENITIES THAT HAD SERVED PREVIOUS GENERATIONS OF LOWELL IMMIGRANTS, SUCH AS PLENTIFUL RENTAL HOUSING AND A HIGH GEOGRAPHIC DENSITY OF RETAIL BUSINESSES AND SERVICES CONTINUE TO ATTRACT IMMIGRANTS. IN THE 2000 CENSUS, MORE THAN ONE IN FIVE LOWELL RESIDENTS WAS FOREIGN BORN. CONTRASTED WITH THE PREDOMINANTLY NORTHERN AND WESTERN EUROPEAN IMMIGRATION DURING THE CITY'S MANUFACTURING HEYDAY, RECENT FIGURES SHOW THAT THE FOREIGN BORN IN LOWELL TODAY HAVE MORE DIVERSE ORIGINS. IN 2000, APPROXIMATELY HALF OF ALL LOWELL IMMIGRANTS WERE ASIAN, NEARLY A QUARTER FROM LATIN AMERICA, 16 PERCENT FROM EUROPE (WITH MANY ARRIVING FROM PORTUGAL), AND APPROXIMATELY SIX PERCENT FROM AFRICA. WITH THEIR ARRIVAL, THESE IMMIGRANTS HAVE ALSO ALTERED THE SERVICE ENVIRONMENT, WITH SOME HEALTHCARE FACILITIES, NOTABLY THE LOWELL COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER, ADAPTING THEIR SERVICES TO ACCOMMODATE INDIVIDUALS WITH IDIOSYNCRATIC CULTURAL AND HEALTH NEEDS, AS WELL AS PROVIDING SERVICES IN AN INCREASING NUMBER OF LANGUAGES.IMMIGRANTS ARRIVING IN LOWELL TODAY ARE GREETED WITH A STARKLY DIFFERENT ECONOMIC REALITY THAN THOSE ARRIVING DURING THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION. THERE ARE ESSENTIALLY NO MANUFACTURING JOBS REMAINING IN LOWELL, AND THE MAJORITY OF JOBS IN THE NEW HIGH TECHNOLOGY SECTOR REQUIRE A COLLEGE EDUCATION. AS A RESULT, MOST JOBS AVAILABLE TO NEW IMMIGRANTS WITHOUT AN ADVANCED EDUCATION ARE SERVICE JOBS, MANY OF WHICH DO NOT PAY A LIVING WAGE. GREATER LOWELL'S DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE FROM THE MASSACHUSETTS EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF LABOR AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, AS OF DECEMBER 2014 INDICATES A 4.7% UNEMPLOYMENT RATE COMPARED TO 4.9% FOR THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS. HOWEVER, IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT LOWELL, MASSACHUSETTS, WHICH REPRESENTS APPROXIMATELY 39% OF THE POPULATION IN LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL'S SERVICE AREA, HAS 19% OF THE POPULATION LIVING BELOW POVERTY AND AN EMPLOYMENT RATE THAT HAS BEEN AT OR ABOVE 8% FOR THE PAST 12 MONTHS. THE COMMUNITIES SURROUNDING LOWELL HAVE ATTRACTED FAR FEWER IMMIGRANTS, WITH IMMIGRANTS ACCOUNTING FOR JUST THREE TO SEVEN PERCENT OF THEIR POPULATIONS. OF THE SUBURBAN COMMUNITIES IN THE GREATER LOWELL AREA, ONLY WESTFORD HAS A HIGHER PROPORTION FOREIGN BORN (12.6%), BUT THESE IMMIGRANTS ARE PREDOMINANTLY WELL EDUCATED AND DRAWN TO THE TOWN'S HIGH TECHNOLOGY JOBS.WHILE LOWELL IS NO LONGER THE ECONOMIC CENTER THAT IT ONCE WAS, LOWELL IS STILL A CULTURAL AND INSTITUTIONAL CENTER FOR THE REGION. IT IS HOME TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS LOWELL, MIDDLESEX COMMUNITY COLLEGE AND THE LOWELL NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK, AS WELL AS LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL, SUPERIOR AND DISTRICT COURTS, THE MERRIMACK REPERTORY THEATER, THE LOWELL MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM, THE TSONGAS CENTER AND LALACHEUR STADIUM.IN 2010, THE GREATER LOWELL AREA, AS DEFINED HEREIN, HAD A POPULATION OF 275,000 RESIDENTS, INCLUDING AN ESTIMATED 106,000 PEOPLE IN THE CITY OF LOWELL ALONE. THUS, THE CITY OF LOWELL ITSELF ACCOUNTS FOR LESS THAN 50 PERCENT OF THE AREA'S POPULATION. FOUR OTHER COMMUNITIES - BILLERICA, CHELMSFORD, DRACUT AND TEWKSBURY - EACH HAVE A POPULATION OF NEARLY 30,000 OR MORE. WE ALSO SEE THAT THE CITY OF LOWELL DIFFERS FROM ITS SUBURBAN NEIGHBORS IN IMPORTANT RESPECTS - A GREATER PERCENTAGE NON-HISPANIC WHITE, A GREATER PERCENTAGE FOREIGN BORN AND A HIGHER POVERTY RATE.LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA (PSA) IS COMPRISED OF APPROXIMATELY 300,000 RESIDENTS FROM THE FOLLOWING NINE COMMUNITIES: BILLERICA, CHELMSFORD, DRACUT, DUNSTABLE, LOWELL, TEWKSBURY, TYNGSBOROUGH, WESTFORD, AND PELHAM, NEW HAMPSHIRE. THE HOSPITAL'S SECONDARY SERVICE AREA (SSA) HAS A POPULATION OF APPROXIMATELY 371,000 AND INCLUDES THE SURROUNDING TOWNS OF ANDOVER, CARLISLE, GROTON, LAWRENCE, LITTLETON, METHUEN, NORTH ANDOVER, PEPPERELL, WILMINGTON, AND HOLLIS, HUDSON AND NASHUA, NEW HAMPSHIRE. |

WITHOUT LOWELL GENERAL'S FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO LCHC'S PENSION AND WORKER'S COMPENSATION PROGRAM, MANY OF THESE PROGRAMS WOULD NOT HAVE ADEQUATE FUNDING.THE HOSPITAL DEDICATES EXTENSIVE RESOURCES THROUGHOUT THE ORGANIZATION IN ITS COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAM. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SENIOR MANAGEMENT TEAM AND THE PLANNING AND RESEARCH DEPARTMENT, CREATED A FORMAL STRUCTURE TO SUPPORT THE HOSPITAL'S OUTREACH INTO THE COMMUNITY, DEDICATING RESOURCES AND INVESTING IN A THREE-PRONGED APPROACH THROUGH THE CREATION OF THREE MAJOR INITIATIVES: THE CENTER FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH & WELLNESS, THE GREATER LOWELL HEALTH ALLIANCE, AND THE LGH BALL FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVES, WHICH IS NOW KNOWN AS THE CIRCLE HEALTH BALL FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVES. CENTER FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH & WELLNESSTHE CENTER FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH & WELLNESS (CHW) WAS CREATED IN 2006 TO MEET THE EVER-CHANGING HEALTHCARE NEEDS THROUGHOUT GREATER LOWELL. THROUGH AN INVESTMENT OF SIGNIFICANT RESOURCES, A STAFF OF TWO HAS GROWN TO MORE THAN 25 FULL-TIME AND PER DIEM STAFF MEMBERS. SINCE 2006, WE HAVE SHOWN A REMARKABLE 911 PERCENT INCREASE IN PROGRAMS OFFERED (45 TO 455) AND 923 PERCENT INCREASE IN INDIVIDUALS SERVED BY THESE PROGRAMS (547 TO 5,598). PROGRAMS AND EVENTS ARE CREATED TO ADDRESS UNMET PUBLIC HEALTH NEEDS INCLUDING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, NUTRITION, SMOKING CESSATION, PREVENTION, AND OVERALL HEALTH AND WELLNESS. MANY OF THESE PROGRAMS TARGET OUR COMMUNITY'S UNDERSERVED AND VULNERABLE POPULATIONS, INCLUDING IMMIGRANTS, ELDERS AND CHILDREN.TODAY, OUR CENTER FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH & WELLNESS PLANS AND SUPPORTS MORE THAN 50 EVENTS ANNUALLY, INCLUDING HEALTH FAIRS AND COMMUNITY SCREENINGS, AND PROVIDES MORE THAN 25 SUPPORT GROUPS. IN ADDITION, WE PARTICIPATE IN 15 TO 20 COMMITTEES AND COALITIONS IN THE GREATER LOWELL AREA, SUCH AS HEALTHY CHELMSFORD, CITY MANAGER'S DOMESTIC VIOLENCE TASKFORCE, LOWELL FOOD SECURITY COALITION, LOWELL YOUTH DEVELOPMENT COLLABORATIVE, LOWELL ASTHMA COALITION, AND THE SUBSTANCE USE & PREVENTION TASK FORCE. OUR LEADERSHIP ROLE IN THESE INITIATIVES ENABLES US TO INCREASE COMMUNITY BUILDING AND CAPACITY, BROADENING THE IMPACT OF OUR OUTREACH. RESPONDING TO THE NEEDS AND FEEDBACK OF OUR COMMUNITY, WE ALSO IMPLEMENTED A CORPORATE WELLNESS PROGRAM, PROVIDING OUTSIDE CORPORATIONS WITH SCREENINGS, INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS AND HEALTH INFORMATION TO IMPROVE THEIR EMPLOYEES' HEALTH.IN 2008 THE HOSPITAL'S CHILDBIRTH EDUCATION PROGRAM MOVED UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF THE CENTER FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH & WELLNESS, CENTRALIZING ALL PREVENTION AND WELLNESS PROGRAMMING. UNDER THE DIRECTION OF CHW, THE CHILDBIRTH EDUCATION DEPARTMENT EXPERIENCED AN IMPRESSIVE 107 PERCENT INCREASE IN ATTENDEES AND 116 PERCENT INCREASE IN PROGRAM OFFERINGS, ADDING PRECONCEPTION AND PARENTING PROGRAMS TO EXISTING OFFERINGS OF PREPARED CHILDBIRTH, TEEN PREGNANCY PROGRAMS, AND INFANT CARE. WE HAVE EVEN SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENTED ONLINE CHILDBIRTH EDUCATION CLASSES. GREATER LOWELL HEALTH ALLIANCEAS THE CENTER FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH & WELLNESS THRIVED, OUR RESEARCH INDICATED THAT THE SCOPE OF THE REGION'S HEALTHCARE NEEDS REQUIRED RESOURCES AND COLLABORATION BEYOND THOSE THAT COULD BE PROVIDED BY A SINGLE INSTITUTION. THIS FINDING LED LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL TO CREATE THE GREATER LOWELL HEALTH ALLIANCE (GLHA), AN INDEPENDENT NON-PROFIT ALLIANCE WITH A MISSION TO SUSTAIN A STRATEGIC ALLIANCE OF COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS THAT IMPROVES THE OVERALL HEALTH AND WELLNESS OF THOSE LIVING IN THE GREATER LOWELL REGION. BY RAISING AWARENESS AND PROVIDING RESOURCES FOR OUR HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS, COMMUNITIES, SCHOOLS AND CIVIC AND BUSINESS LEADERS, WE EMPOWER THEM TO MAKE DECISIONS AND TAKE ACTIONS THAT WILL LEAD TO AN IMPROVEMENT IN THE OVERALL HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITIES.A MAJOR GOAL OF THE GLHA IS TO REDUCE DUPLICATION OF EFFORTS. THEREFORE, IN 2008 GLHA MERGED WITH THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NETWORK AREA (CHNA) 10, A COALITION OF PUBLIC, NON-PROFIT AND PRIVATE SECTORS CREATED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH IN 1992. THE UNIFICATION OF THE TWO ORGANIZATIONS STRENGTHENED OUR ABILITY TO WORK WITH OTHERS TO ENRICH THE GREATER LOWELL COMMUNITY; NETWORK AND SHARE IDEAS WITH PEOPLE OF SIMILAR INTEREST IN BUILDING A HEALTHIER GREATER LOWELL COMMUNITY; GAIN MORE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HEALTH-RELATED ISSUES AND TOPICS; AND INCREASE CULTURAL COMPETENCY OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY. SINCE 2006, GLHA HAS GROWN FROM 13 PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATIONS TO MORE THAN 100, AND FROM ONE TASK FORCE (HEALTHY WEIGHT) TO FIVE (SUBSTANCE USE & PREVENTION, MENTAL HEALTH, CULTURAL COMPETENCE, HEALTHY EATING & LIVING, AND MATERNAL CHILD HEALTH). LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO PROVIDE LEADERSHIP AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO THE GLHA. LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL'S VICE PRESIDENT OF EXTERNAL AFFAIRS, MICHELLE DAVIS IS THE CHAIR OF THE GLHA BOARD COMMITTEE.CIRCLE HEALTH BALL FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVESWITH THE GROWING NEED FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH PROGRAMS AND SUPPORT CAME THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO SUPPORT THEM. LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL DEVELOPED THE ANNUAL "LGH BALL FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVES", NOW KNOWN AS THE CIRCLE HEALTH BALL, TO RAISE AWARENESS AND FUNDS FOR COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND EDUCATION. IN THE PAST SEVEN YEARS, LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL HAS RAISED MORE THAN $600,000 FOR COMMUNITY INITIATIVES, INCLUDING THE HEALTHY BABIES INITIATIVE, A BREASTFEEDING EDUCATION AND SUPPORT PROGRAMS FOR NEW MOMS; THE "BEDS FOR KIDS" PROGRAM OF THE LOWELL WISH PROJECT, WHICH PROVIDES NEW BEDS AND BEDDING FOR AT-RISK CHILDREN IN THE CITY; A PUBLIC SERVICE CAMPAIGN TO PROMOTE MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND RESOURCES; THE "HEART AND SOLES" MALL WALKING PROGRAM; AN OUTDOOR RIVER PATH WALKING PROGRAM; A CHILDREN'S LITERACY PROGRAM; A SMOKING PREVENTION PROGRAM IN THE LOWELL PUBLIC SCHOOLS; AND A COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH RISK ASSESSMENT PROGRAM.IN 2014, THE CIRCLE HEALTH BALL RAISED MORE THAN $285,000 TO HELP FUND VITAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS PROGRAMS WHICH BENEFIT RESIDENTS OF THE GREATER LOWELL COMMUNITY. THREE LOCAL NON-PROFITS WERE AWARDED COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVE GRANTS FOR 2014. THEY WERE THE INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF LOWELL'S REFUGEE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INITIATIVE, UTEC'S PREVENTING SUBSTANCE ABUSE TO HELP YOUTH SUCCEED PROGRAM, AND LOWELL TRANSITIONAL LIVING CENTER'S HEALTH CARE NAVIGATOR PROGRAM.LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL IS DEDICATED TO THE PROMOTION OF THE HEALTH IN THE COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR LOCAL SENIOR CENTERS, HOSTING QUARTERLY BLOOD DRIVES IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE AMERICAN RED CROSS, RUNNING ANNUAL FOOD DRIVES TO BENEFIT THE LOCAL FOOD BANKS, AND PARTICIPATING IN COUNTLESS HEALTH FAIRS WHERE WE PROVIDE VALUABLE HEALTH PROMOTION INFORMATION AND OFTEN PROVIDE FREE HEALTH SCREENINGS. |
| PART VI, LINE 6: | MEMBERS AND OFFICERS OF LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL ARE ACTIVELY SERVING ON THE BOARDS OF MANY LOCAL COMMUNITY AREA AGENCIES AND AS HEADS OF THE GREATER LOWELL HEALTH ALLIANCE. IN 2012, LOWELL GENERAL HOSPITAL OFFICIALLY BECAME A MEMBER OF CIRCLE HEALTH. CIRCLE HEALTH IS A PROGRESSIVE COLLABORATION OF PHYSICIANS, HOSPITALS, OTHER HEALTH PROVIDERS, AND OTHER COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS WITH A SHARED VISION FOR EMPOWERING PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES TO BE THE HEALTHIEST THEY CAN BE. WITH OUR INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS AND APPROACH TO CARE MANAGEMENT, OUR PROMISE TO YOU IS AN EXPERIENCE OF COMPLETE CONNECTED CARESM. CIRCLE HEALTH IS ABOUT SUPPORTING COMMUNITIES WITH A COMPREHENSIVE RANGE OF SERVICES SO THAT INDIVIDUALS HAVE EASY ACCESS TO THE EXPERTISE AND RESOURCES THEY NEED IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THE BEST POSSIBLE HEALTH THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES. |
