SPECIFICALLY, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL INTERVIEWED REPRESENTATIVES OF LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH ENTITIES, MINORITY POPULATIONS, THE FAITH-BASED COMMUNITIES, LOCAL BUSINESS OWNERS, THE PHILANTHROPIC COMMUNITY, MENTAL HEALTH AGENCIES, ELECTED OFFICIALS, AND OTHER RELEVANT COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS. ADDITIONALLY, THE HOSPITAL CONDUCTED TWO FOCUS GROUPS MADE UP OF LOW-INCOME AND UNINSURED PATIENTS, AS WELL AS CONSUMER AND PATIENT ADVOCATES REPRESENTING A VARIETY OF VULNERABLE PATIENTS. ALL INTERVIEWS, FOCUS GROUPS AND MEETINGS INFORMED THE CHNA PROCESS, INCLUDING THE IDENTIFICATION OF KEY HEALTH PRIORITIES AND DEVELOPMENT OF IMPLEMENTATION PLAN STRATEGIES.
SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION C, LINE 7D: PUBLIC AVAILABILITY OF CHNA	IN ADDITION TO MAKING ITS CHNA AVAILABLE ON ITS WEBSITE AND BY REQUEST, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL SENT A COPY TO EACH PARTICIPANT IN THE CHNA (ABOUT 200 PEOPLE), DISTRIBUTED THE ASSESSMENT TO COMMUNITY CENTERS AND OTHER LOCATIONS THAT PRIMARILY SERVE AN UNINSURED POPULATION, SENT A COPY TO LEGISLATIVE AND ELECTED OFFICIALS, AND WIDELY DISTRIBUTED THE ASSESSMENT TO OTHER PIEDMONT HEALTHCARE HOSPITALS.
SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION C, LINE 11	WHEN PIEDMONT HOSPITAL PERFORMED ITS INITIAL CHNA DURING FY13, IT FOCUSED ON THREE MAIN PRIORITIES AND STARTED WORK ON THOSE PRIORITIES DURING FY14. FIRST, THE HOSPITAL FOCUSED ON INCREASING ACCESS TO APPROPRIATE AND AFFORDABLE CARE FOR LOW- AND NO-INCOME PATIENTS BY DEVELOPING AND EXECUTING A PLAN TO STRENGTHEN ACCESS POINTS TO THOSE PATIENTS. SECOND, THE HOSPITAL SOUGHT OUT TO REDUCE PREVENTABLE READMISSIONS AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT RE-ENCOUNTERS, PARTICULARLY AMONG HIGH-RISK PATIENTS, BY INCREASING CARE COORDINATION EFFORTS BETWEEN THE HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY- BASED PROVIDERS. LASTLY, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL FOCUSED ON REDUCING INSTANCES OF PREVENTABLE HEART DISEASE AND HYPERTENSION BY UTILIZING COMMUNITY-WIDE AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS AND PROVIDING EDUCATION THAT ENCOURAGES COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO REDUCE THEIR HEART DISEASE RISKS THROUGH HEALTHY BEHAVIORS. OTHER KEY HEALTH ISSUES EMERGED DURING THE FY13 CHNA THAT WERE NOT THE FOCUS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR FY14 THROUGH FY16. THESE ISSUES INCLUDED MENTAL HEALTH, VIOLENT CRIME, AND HIV/AIDS/STDS. WITH RESPECT TO MENTAL HEALTH, THE HOSPITAL DID NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES TO MAKE A MEANINGFUL IMPACT ON THE ISSUE AS PIEDMONT HOSPITAL DOES NOT PROVIDE MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES IN-HOUSE. FURTHER, AS A HEALTHCARE PROVIDER, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL IS UNABLE TO SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE OCCURRENCE OF VIOLENCE IN THE COMMUNITY. HOWEVER, THE HOSPITAL WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT AWARENESS AND EXPLORE COMMUNITY-BASED PARTNERSHIPS AROUND THESE TWO ISSUES. FINALLY, WHILE PIEDMONT HOSPITAL DID NOT ELECT TO FOCUS ON HIV/AIDS/STDS IN ITS IMPLEMENTATION, IT WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE CARE AND SUPPORT TO THOSE PATIENTS WITH THESE HEALTH CONDITIONS AND WILL EXPLORE ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR COMMUNITY-BASED PARTNERSHIPS AROUND PREVENTION.

SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 1: REQUIRED DESCRIPTIONS	PUBLIC AVAILABILITY OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 6A A REPORT ON PIEDMONT HOSPITAL, INC'S ("PH") COMMUNITY BENEFITS IS FOUND WITHIN PIEDMONT HEALTHCARE, INC'S (PIEDMONT HOSPITAL'S SOLE MEMBER) ANNUAL REPORT, WHICH IS WIDELY DISTRIBUTED TO THE PUBLIC BOTH THROUGH PRINTED COPIES MADE AVAILABLE TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS UPON REQUEST AND THROUGH PUBLICATION ON THE PIEDMONT HEALTHCARE WEBSITE. ADDITIONALLY, THE REPORT WAS MAILED TO PH AND PIEDMONT HEALTHCARE BOARD MEMBERS, STATE AND LOCAL ELECTED OFFICIALS, AND OTHER KEY STAKEHOLDERS. PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7(F) THE DENOMINATOR USED FOR THE CALCULATION OF COLUMN (F), PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE, WAS THE AMOUNT OF TOTAL FUNCTIONAL EXPENSES ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A) of $809,292,666, LESS BAD DEBT EXPENSE OF $49,327,505 FROM FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 24(B). FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND CERTAIN OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS AT COST SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7 A RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES, CONSISTENT WITH WORKSHEET 2, WAS USED TO REPORT THE AMOUNTS IN PART I, LINES 7A-7D. FOR AMOUNTS ON LINES 7E-7K, ACTUAL EXPENSES FOR EACH COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITY ARE TRACED AND REPORTED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. BAD DEBT EXPENSE CALCULATION AND FOOTNOTE SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINES 2-4 BASED ON PRIOR EXPERIENCE AND CERTAIN DEMOGRAPHICS AND OTHER INFORMATION OBTAINED DURING ADMISSION, THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES A PORTION OF THE BAD DEBT EXPENSES AT COST IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE. DESPITE ITS BEST EFFORTS TO EDUCATE PATIENTS ABOUT QUALIFYING FOR ITS CHARITY CARE PROGRAM (AS DISCUSSED IN PART IV, QUESTION 3 BELOW), MANY UNINSURED PATIENTS DO NOT COMPLETE A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION OR PROVIDE SUFFICIENT INFORMATION AT THE TIME OF ADMISSION, DURING THEIR STAY, OR AFTER BEING DISCHARGED TO QUALIFY FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY. THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 3, WAS DETERMINED BY TAKING THE AVERAGE ACCEPTANCE RATE FOR ALL CHARITY CARE APPLICATIONS RECEIVED DURING THE YEAR MULTIPLIED BY THE NUMBER OF DENIALS THAT WERE ATTRIBUTABLE TO INSUFFICIENT INFORMATION. THAT TOTAL WAS THEN ADJUSTED DOWNWARD FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S USE OF PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY WHEN DETERMINING ITS COMMUNITY BENEFITS. BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOOTNOTE FROM CONSOLIDATED, AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IS BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE COVERAGE, AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. PERIODICALLY, MANAGEMENT ASSESSES THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS BASED UPON HISTORICAL WRITE-OFF EXPERIENCE BY PAYER CATEGORY. THE RESULTS OF THIS REVIEW ARE THEN USED TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS TO ESTABLISH AN APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES. PHC'S PRESENTATION OF THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT AT THE REPORTING ENTITY LEVEL IS BASED ON AN ENTITY-WIDE ASSESSMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE. PH PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE ARE NOT REPORTED AS REVENUE. MEDICARE SHORTFALLS AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 8 THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON PART III, SECTION B, LINE 6 WAS CALCULATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS AND UTILIZING THE ORGANIZATION'S ALLOWABLE MEDICARE COST AS REPORTED IN THE MEDICARE COST REPORT, WHICH IS BASED ON A COST TO CHARGE RATIO. HOWEVER, THE ALLOWABLE COSTS IN THE MEDICARE COST REPORT DO NOT REFLECT THE ACTUAL COST OF PROVIDING CARE TO PATIENTS SINCE THE MEDICARE COST REPORT EXCLUDES MANY DIRECT PATIENT CARE COSTS THAT ARE ESSENTIAL TO PROVIDING QUALITY HEALTHCARE FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, CERTAIN COVERAGE FEES TO PHYSICIANS, COST OF MEDICARE C AND D, AND OTHER SIMILAR DIRECT PATIENT CARE EXPENSES ARE SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED FROM ALLOWABLE COST IN THE MEDICARE COST REPORT. THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT PIEDMONT HOSPITAL'S MEDICARE SHORTFALL REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 7 OF SCHEDULE H, SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS THE IRS COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD INCLUDES THE PROVISION OF CARE TO ELDERLY AND MEDICARE PATIENTS. IRS REVENUE RULING 69-545 PROVIDES, IN PART, THAT HOSPITALS SERVING PATIENTS WITH GOVERNMENTAL HEALTH INSURANCE, SUCH AS MEDICARE, IS AN INDICATION THE HOSPITAL OPERATES TO PROMOTE HEALTH IN THE COMMUNITY. ADDITIONALLY, MEDICARE ACCOUNTED FOR 20.57 PERCENT OF PH'S PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. PH'S POLICY IS TO TREAT MEDICARE PATIENTS, REGARDLESS OF THE EXTENT TO WHICH MEDICARE ACTUALLY PAYS FOR THE TREATMENT. FOR MANY SERVICES, MEDICARE'S REIMBURSEMENT IS LESS THAN THE COST OF THE CARE PROVIDED, RESULTING IN SHORTFALLS THAT ARE TO BE ABSORBED BY THE HOSPITAL IN HONOR OF PH'S COMMITMENT TO TREAT ELDERLY PATIENTS. MANY OF THESE PATIENTS LIVE ON A LOW, FIXED INCOME, AND WOULD QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE OR OTHER MEANS-TESTED PROGRAMS, ABSENT THEIR ENROLLMENT IN MEDICARE. COLLECTION PRACTICES SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 9(B) INITIAL SCREENINGS OF ALL INPATIENT, EMERGENCY, AND SURGERY ENCOUNTERS, AS WELL AS MOST OUTPATIENT VISITS, ARE CONDUCTED BY FINANCIAL COUNSELORS IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY ANY AVAILABLE INSURANCE OR OTHER COVERAGE FOR EACH PATIENT. COUNSELORS CONTACT PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES DIRECTLY, EITHER IN PERSON OR BY LETTER, TO ASSIST THE FAMILY IN IDENTIFYING ANY PROGRAMS FOR WHICH THE PATIENT/SERVICE MAY QUALIFY (INCLUDING MEDICAID, STATE CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM ("SCHIP"), PRIVATE OR GOVERNMENT INSURANCE COVERAGE, AND CHARITY ASSISTANCE). IF THE FAMILY CANNOT BE TIMELY LOCATED OR IS UNCOOPERATIVE, RELATED ACCOUNTS ARE TRANSFERRED TO AN INTERNAL COLLECTION DEPARTMENT FOR FURTHER ATTEMPTS TO OBTAIN PAYMENT OR, IF THE PATIENT MAY QUALIFY FOR ASSISTANCE, TO SECURE A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION. THE ORGANIZATION'S DEBT COLLECTION POLICY AND PROCEDURES PROHIBIT ANY COLLECTION EFFORTS FOR THE PORTION OF A PATIENT ACCOUNT BALANCE THAT QUALIFIES FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY. COMMUNITY REPRESENTATION SCHEDULE H, PART V, LINE 5 PIEDMONT HOSPITAL'S MOST RECENT CHNA WAS CONDUCTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE HAYSLETT GROUP, THE LEAD CONVENER OF GEORGIA'S PARTNER UP FOR PUBLIC HEALTH CAMPAIGN. THE OVERALL HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT EFFORT WAS LED BY THE PIEDMONT HEALTHCARE COMMUNITY BENEFITS TEAM, AND ASSISTED BY COMMUNITY HEALTH ADVISORS (FOR STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS). STAKEHOLDERS WERE CONTINUALLY ENGAGED DURING THIS PROCESS, WITH A PARTICULAR FOCUS ON THOSE GROUPS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING THE MOST VULNERABLE MEMBERS OF THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY. SPECIFICALLY, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL INTERVIEWED REPRESENTATIVES OF LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH ENTITIES, MINORITY POPULATIONS, THE FAITH-BASED COMMUNITIES, LOCAL BUSINESS OWNERS, THE PHILANTHROPIC COMMUNITY, MENTAL HEALTH AGENCIES, ELECTED OFFICIALS, AND OTHER RELEVANT COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS. ADDITIONALLY, THE HOSPITAL CONDUCTED TWO FOCUS GROUPS MADE UP OF LOW-INCOME AND UNINSURED PATIENTS, AS WELL AS CONSUMER AND PATIENT ADVOCATES REPRESENTING A VARIETY OF VULNERABLE PATIENTS. ALL INTERVIEWS, FOCUS GROUPS AND MEETINGS INFORMED THE CHNA PROCESS, INCLUDING THE IDENTIFICATION OF KEY HEALTH PRIORITIES AND DEVELOPMENT OF IMPLEMENTATION PLAN STRATEGIES. PUBLIC AVAILABILITY OF CHNA SCHEDULE H, PART V, LINE 7D IN ADDITION TO MAKING ITS CHNA AVAILABLE ON ITS WEBSITE AND BY REQUEST, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL SENT A COPY TO EACH PARTICIPANT IN THE CHNA (ABOUT 200 PEOPLE), DISTRIBUTED THE ASSESSMENT TO COMMUNITY CENTERS AND OTHER LOCATIONS THAT PRIMARILY SERVE AN UNINSURED POPULATION, SENT A COPY TO LEGISLATIVE AND ELECTED OFFICIALS, AND WIDELY DISTRIBUTED THE ASSESSMENT TO OTHER PIEDMONT HEALTHCARE HOSPITALS. ADDRESSING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS SCHEDULE H, PART V, LINE 11 WHEN PIEDMONT HOSPITAL PERFORMED ITS INITIAL CHNA DURING FY13, IT FOCUSED ON THREE MAIN PRIORITIES AND STARTED WORK ON THOSE PRIORITIES DURING FY14. FIRST, THE HOSPITAL FOCUSED ON INCREASING ACCESS TO APPROPRIATE AND AFFORDABLE CARE FOR LOW- AND NO-INCOME PATIENTS BY DEVELOPING AND EXECUTING A PLAN TO STRENGTHEN ACCESS POINTS TO THOSE PATIENTS. SECOND, THE HOSPITAL SOUGHT OUT TO REDUCE PREVENTABLE READMISSIONS AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT RE-ENCOUNTERS, PARTICULARLY AMONG HIGH-RISK PATIENTS, BY INCREASING CARE COORDINATION EFFORTS BETWEEN THE HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY- BASED PROVIDERS. LASTLY, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL FOCUSED ON REDUCING INSTANCES OF PREVENTABLE HEART DISEASE AND HYPERTENSION BY UTILIZING COMMUNITY-WIDE AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS AND PROVIDING EDUCATION THAT ENCOURAGES COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO REDUCE THEIR HEART DISEASE RISKS THROUGH HEALTHY BEHAVIORS. OTHER KEY HEALTH ISSUES EMERGED DURING THE FY13 CHNA THAT WERE NOT THE FOCUS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR FY14 THROUGH FY16. THESE ISSUES INCLUDED MENTAL HEALTH, VIOLENT CRIME, AND HIV/AIDS/STDS. WITH
SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 2: NEEDS ASSESSMENT	DURING FISCAL YEAR 2013, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL CONDUCTED AND RATIFIED A FORMAL NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. THE ASSESSMENT BEGAN WITH A REVIEW OF PUBLICLY AVAILABLE HEALTH AND SOCIOECONOMIC DATA THAT WAS THEN COMPILED AND ANALYZED BY THE HAYSLETT GROUP, THE LEAD CONVENER OF GEORGIA'S PARTNER UP FOR PUBLIC HEALTH CAMPAIGN. THE OVERALL HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT EFFORT WAS LED BY THE PIEDMONT HEALTHCARE COMMUNITY BENEFITS TEAM, AND ASSISTED BY COMMUNITY HEALTH ADVISORS (FOR STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS). STAKEHOLDERS WERE CONTINUALLY ENGAGED DURING THIS PROCESS, WITH A PARTICULAR FOCUS ON THOSE GROUPS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING THE MOST VULNERABLE MEMBERS OF THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY. SPECIFICALLY, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL INTERVIEWED REPRESENTATIVES OF LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH ENTITIES, MINORITY POPULATIONS, THE FAITH-BASED COMMUNITIES, LOCAL BUSINESS OWNERS, THE PHILANTHROPIC COMMUNITY, MENTAL HEALTH AGENCIES, ELECTED OFFICIALS, AND OTHER RELEVANT COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS. ADDITIONALLY, THE HOSPITAL CONDUCTED TWO FOCUS GROUPS MADE UP OF LOW-INCOME AND UNINSURED PATIENTS, AS WELL AS CONSUMER AND PATIENT ADVOCATES REPRESENTING A VARIETY OF VULNERABLE PATIENTS. ALL INTERVIEWS, FOCUS GROUPS AND MEETINGS INFORMED THE CHNA PROCESS, INCLUDING THE IDENTIFICATION OF KEY HEALTH PRIORITIES AND DEVELOPMENT OF IMPLEMENTATION PLAN STRATEGIES. THE PIEDMONT HOSPITAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED THIS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN TO ADDRESS IDENTIFIED HEALTH ISSUES ON MAY 21, 2013. DURING FISCAL YEAR 2015, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL CREATED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT-SPECIFIC ANNUAL REPORT AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC THAT HIGHLIGHTED ITS PROGRESS ON THE FY13 CHNA IMPLEMENTATION PLAN PRIORITIES AND ACTION ITEMS. THIS REPORT ALSO INCLUDED INFORMATION ON THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY PARTNERS AND STAKEHOLDERS, AND UPDATED COMMUNITY HEALTH DATA AND STATISTICS FOR EACH OF ITS SERVICE COMMUNITIES.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 3: PATIENT EDUCATION OF ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY	PIEDMONT HEALTHCARE UNDERSTANDS THAT NOT EVERYONE WILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO PAY THEIR HOSPITAL BILL DUE TO THEIR INSURANCE STATUS OR A LIMITED INCOME, AND BECAUSE OF THIS, PIEDMONT HOSPITAL OFFERS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO QUALIFYING PATIENTS. INFORMATION ABOUT AND CONTACT NUMBERS FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ARE PROVIDED IN NOTICES INSERTED IN PATIENT BILLS AND POSTED IN EMERGENCY ROOMS, IN THE CONDITIONS OF ADMISSION FORM, AT ADMITTING AND REGISTRATION DEPARTMENTS, AT HOSPITAL BUSINESS OFFICES, AT PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICES OFFICES THAT ARE LOCATED ON FACILITY CAMPUSES, AND AT OTHER PUBLIC PLACES THE HOSPITAL MAY ELECT, INCLUDING LOCAL LOW-COST CLINICS PRIMARILY TREATING UNINSURED POPULATIONS. PIEDMONT HOSPITAL ALSO PUBLISHES AND WIDELY PUBLICIZES A SUMMARY OF THIS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE CARE POLICY ON ITS FACILITY WEBSITE, WHICH INCLUDES A LINK TO THE FULL POLICY AND APPLICATION. REFERRAL OF PATIENTS FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE MAY BE MADE BY ANY STAFF OR MEDICAL STAFF MEMBER AT THE HOSPITAL, INCLUDING PHYSICIANS, NURSES, FINANCIAL COUNSELORS, SOCIAL WORKERS, CASE MANAGERS, CHAPLAINS, AND RELIGIOUS SPONSORS. A REQUEST FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE MAY BE MADE BY THE PATIENT OR A FAMILY MEMBER, CLOSE FRIEND, OR ASSOCIATE OF THE PATIENT, SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE PRIVACY LAWS.

IN 2015, APPROXIMATELY 984,293 PEOPLE LIVED IN FULTON COUNTY AND ABOUT 26 PERCENT OF ADULTS WERE UNINSURED. APPROXIMATELY 14 PERCENT OF THE OVERALL ADULT POPULATION IN FULTON COUNTY REPORTED THAT IT WAS UNABLE TO SEE A DOCTOR IN 2015 DUE TO COST, AND 11 PERCENT REPORTED IT WAS IN POOR OR FAIR HEALTH, WHICH IS LOWER THAN THE STATE AVERAGE OF 16 PERCENT.
