DescAttachment 1 ("CCH") is a 47 bed acute care hospital which currently employs over 600 people. It is a significant, positive economic force for the Columbus area, returning dollars into the economy through local purchases by the organization, and salaries that return to the community. It is also a needed asset for the local communities where patients can obtain quality healthcare without the need to drive over 50 miles for care. In providing the care necessary for local communities, CCH has a variety of services. Following is a brief summary of some of the areas of service provided by CCH. a) The main focus is acute care services for patients. All 47 acute care beds at CCH are also certified as swing beds. b) To assist our non-English speaking patients, CCH uses competent, certified, dedicated Medical Interpreters as a liaison between the care providers and the patient. Since this is the interpreters' full time job at the hospital, they are available when needed, in house or on call 24/7. c) To make the patient's stay successful and comfortable, CCH provides ICU, Medical Surgical, OB, and an Orthopedic Service Line along with a variety of complimentary ancillary services (Wound Care, Diabetic Education, Cardiac Rehab) and Clinical Pharmacy Services. CCH uses Bar-Coded Medication Administration, Smart Pumps, and Computerized Physician Order Entry to enhance safety. d) CCH offers Rehabilitative Services such as Physical Therapy, Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Drivers Rehab Therapy, so patients don't have to travel so far to get adult therapy. Pediatric Physical Therapy, Speech Therapy, and Occupational Therapy are offered at our off-site location, Wiggles & Giggles Therapy (includes Physical, Speech, and Occupational Therapies) for kids. CCH has Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists and Speech Therapists with specialized certification in cancer rehab. We launched our certified Star Program at Columbus Community Hospital in November of 2012. We are one of only three hospitals in Nebraska to have achieved the star program certification for Cancer Rehabilitation. Star stands for Survivorship Training and Rehab. We have had at least 74 formal Star Program referrals resulting in consultations for potential rehabilitation needs. Many of our Star Program Participants have needed physical therapy, speech therapy or occupational therapy and some have needed nutritional consults as well as psychosocial referrals. Some patients who have participated have had pulmonary concerns and cardiovascular factors. There also have been some Star Program graduates that have transitioned to medical wellness here at CCH. e) Nurses in the Same Day Services Department prepare patients for surgery and, if going home the same day, care for them after surgery. The department oversees several outpatient procedures, including 90 to 100 Endoscopy Procedures each month, blood transfusions, and Chemotherapy Infusions. f) CCH offers some of the most advanced imaging services including MRI, CT, Digital Mammography, Ultrasound, etc. Radiologists are on campus and/or available 24-7 to read the various scans. The dictation used by the Radiologists is voice recognized and becomes part of the digital image. All images are digital, meaning there are no films. g) CCH has an up to date Laboratory which performs over 13,000 tests on average per month, for both Inpatients and Outpatients. h) CCH has highly trained, employed Emergency Physicians and Nurses in their Emergency Department (ED) and offers 24-7 care. The Department includes support from qualified staff in Respiratory Care, Social Work, Laboratory, Medical Interpreting, and Diagnostic Imaging. The ED was designated as a Level III Trauma Center in May, 2006. The Medical Staff and Personnel in the Trauma Center have received specialized training to resuscitate and stabilize trauma patients. The trauma program provides systematic review of the trauma care and participates in injury prevention activities throughout the community. i) CCH opened Wound Care Services in August of 2008. The identified service area includes a 45-mile radius around Columbus. By January, 2009 a second day was added to support the demand. This service has taken off far beyond what was expected. Previously, patients seeking this specialized treatment were required to travel on average 75 miles to see a wound clinic specialist. It was a much needed service for the local communities. Columbus Community Hospital currently sees about 100 patients per month for wound care. j) Centering on services outside the Hospital, the larger services are Home Health and Hospice Services. Home Health is skilled health services for patients at their place of residence. The program is medically directed, therefore, it must be ordered by the attending physician. The Program is Medicare and Medicaid certified and meets the requirements of the Joint Commission. Services provided within the Program are: 1. Supervision and administration of medications 2. Intravenous Therapy 3. Teaching diabetic management 4. Nutritional Assessments 5. Home Health aides 6. Personal Care Services 7. Occupational, Speech and Physical Therapies 8. Hospice services are provided to persons who are no longer receiving curative treatment and whose life expectancy is six months or less. Care is provided by an interdisciplinary team which consists of the Physician, Nurse, Social Worker, Therapist, Home Health Aide, Spiritual Advisor, Volunteer and other health professionals. k) Our local Healthy Family Nebraska program (HFN) targets young, primarily single, pregnant mothers and their families. Our Voluntary HFN Home Visitation Program targets the most vulnerable young women and their families by offering them, intense, in home education, support and resources. This Home Visiting Program covers families in a four county area. The HFN requires each mother/family to actively participate in building an individualized family plan. This strength based approach promotes self- improvement, and enhances self-esteem and independence for our young parents that will help them make better decisions, and break out of destructive cycles. l) CCH's Sleep Lab offers complete Polysomnographic Sleep Testing for the purpose of diagnosing obstructive/central sleep apnea by trained and licensed Sleep Technicians. Both daytime and night sleep studies are performed. m) Occupational Health Services (OHS) offers a menu of health care services designed to prevent and treat injuries in the workplace. Partnering with employers in more than 800 companies and with other health care professionals, OHS provides the Columbus and regional area business and industry with a comprehensive range of services designed to support and maintain a healthy, safe workforce while assisting to meet OSHA and DOT compliance regulations. Their full range of services include: 1. A comprehensive testing procedure called the Physical Capacity Profile (PCP) that matches employees to the job and is designed to accommodate individuals with handicaps. The PCP System was developed by an Orthopedic Physician. Through use of this testing, musculoskeletal imbalances are detected which helps employers place employees in the appropriate job to minimize the potential of injury. 2. Drug and Alcohol Testing Services 24/7 3. DOT Physicals 4. Pre Employment/Post Job Offer Physical Assessments 5. On Site Nursing Services 6. Hearing/Vision Testing 7. Hearing Conservation Program Management 8. Respiratory Fit Testing 9. Respiratory Evaluation Services 10. Flu Shots and Immunization Programs 11. Wellness Programs n) Lifeline, an in home emergency response program, provides the vital safety net that many people need to continue living at home in familiar and comforting surroundings. The program is completely focused on ensuring the patient's independence, safety and well-being in their home. It operates with a bracelet worn by the patient with a button that can be pressed if help is needed. Predetermined responders are summoned to their home or emergency transfer can be called if needed. This gives security to the patient and comfort to the patient's relatives. o) Meals on Wheels are prepared by the Nutrition Services Department and are delivered by community volunteers. Seniors and physically handicapped adults qualify for the program. Special diets can also be accommodated. Financial assistance is available through the Nebraska Department of Social Services. p) The Hospital participates in and has hosted County wide Natural Disasters and Pandemic Drills. CCH is a member of a larger Preparedness Team, RROMRS. This allows CCH to assist or receive assistance from this region's Medicare providers. CCH feels we are well prepared to handle a natural disaster or pandemic should one arise.Desc

Form 990, Sch D, Part V, Line 4Endowment funds are held and maintained by Columbus Community Hospital Foundation. The endowment funds exist in support of improved health services by Columbus Community Hospital.
Form 990, Sch D, Part X, Line 2The Hospital adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No, 109. FIN 48 provides specific guidance on how to address uncertainty in accounting for income tax assets and liabilities, prescribing recognition thresholds and measurement attributes. The adoption of FIN 48 by Columbus Community Hospital did not have a material impact on the Hospital's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In fiscal years ending 2015 and 2014, management determined that there are no income tax positions requiring recognition in the financial statements.

Form 990, Sch H, Part IICOMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES - THE HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO COLLABORATE WITH THE LOCAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TO RECRUIT SKILLED PROFESSIONALS TO FILL JOB OPENINGS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE HOSPITAL ALSO PROVIDES SUPPORT AND STAFF TIME TO ASSIST IN HIGHLIGHTING THE HEALTHCARE COMMUNITY, PROVIDING SPECIFIC DEPARTMENT OR HOSPITAL TOURS IN ORDER TO RECRUIT SKILLED PROFESSIONALS TO LIVE AND WORK HERE IN THE COMMUNITY. THE HOSPITAL DONATED LAND TO THE CITY OF COLUMBUS PROVIDING SPACE FOR A TWELVE-ACRE URBAN LAKE AND 20 ACRES OF LAND FOR A FUTURE FIRE STATION ON THIS PROPERTY. THE URBAN LAKE IS EQUIPPED WITH A NICE WOODEN DOCK MAKING IT VERY ACCESSIBLE FOR STROLLERS, WHEELCHAIRS AND OTHER ASSISTIVE DEVICES TO FISH OR WATCH THE WATER FOWL ON THE LAKE.

Form 990, Sch H, Part III, SECTION A, Line 2THE METHODOLOGY USED TO ESTIMATE THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS TO TAKE THE PRIVATE PAY WRITE-OFFS FOR THE YEAR AND DIVIDE THEM BY THE TOTAL REVENUE GENERATED FROM SELF-PAY PATIENTS AND MULTIPLY THE PRODUCT BY THE SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. THIS GIVES THE AMOUNT OF RESERVE NECESSARY TO COVER THE POTENTIAL BAD DEBT IN CURRENT SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOR THE FISCAL YEAR IS THE AMOUNT OF ADDITIONAL EXPENSE NECESSARY TO BRING THAT RESERVE ACCOUNT TO THE CALCULATED (ESTIMATED) BALANCE.

Form 990, Sch H, Part III, SECTION A, Line 4FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT INCLUDE ANY TEXT FOR BAD DEBT. THE AMOUNT IN LINE 2 IS THE BOOK BAD DEBT AMOUNT. CHARITY CARE IS KEPT SEPARATE FROM BAD DEBT.
Form 990, Sch H, Part III, Line 8IN ACCORDANCE WITH 42 CFR 413.24, COLUMBUS COMMUNITY HOSPITAL USES THE STEP-DOWN METHOD AS ITS COSTING METHODOLOGY. DEPARTMENTS WITHIN A PROVIDER ARE USUALLY DIVIDED INTO TWO TYPES: 1) THOSE THAT PRODUCE PATIENT CARE REVENUE (E.G., ROUTING SERVICES, RADIOLOGY), AND 2) THOSE THAT DO NOT DIRECTLY GENERATE PATIENT CARE REVENUE, BUT ARE UTILIZED AS A SERVICE BY OTHER DEPARTMENTS (E.G., LAUNDRY AND LINEN, DIETARY). THE TWO TYPES OF DEPARTMENTS ARE COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS REVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTERS AND NONREVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTERS ALTHOUGH NONREVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTERS DO NOT DIRECTLY PRODUCE PATIENT CARE REVENUE, THEY CONTRIBUTE INDIRECTLY TO PATIENT CARE REVENUE GENERATED BY SERVING AS A SERVICE TO THE REVENUE-PRODUCING CENTERS AND ALSO TO OTHER NONREVENUE-PRODUCING CENTERS. THEREFORE, FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROPER MATCHING OF REVENUE AND EXPENSES, THE COST OF THE REVENUE-PRODUCING CENTERS SHOULD INCLUDE BOTH ITS DIRECT EXPENSES AND ITS PROPORTIONATE SHARE OF THE COSTS OF EACH NONREVENUE-PRODUCING CENTER (INDIRECT COSTS) BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF SERVICES RECEIVED. THE PROCESS OF ALLOCATING THE COST OF A PARTICULAR NONREVENUE-PRODUCING CENTER TO OTHER NONREVENUE-PRODUCING CENTERS AND REVENUE-PRODUCING CENTERS IS PERFORMED BY UTILIZING A SET OF STATISTICS (E.G., POUNDS OF LAUNDRY FOR ALLOCATING LAUNDRY AND LINEN COSTS, SQUARE FEET FOR ALLOCATING DEPRECIATION BUILDING COSTS). EVERY NONREVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTER HAS THE POTENTIAL OF BEING ALLOCATED TO EVERY OTHER NONREVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTERS IN ADDITION TO THE REVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTERS. THIS PRECLUDES A SIMPLE ALLOCATION OF THE DIRECT EXPENSE OF THE NONREVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTER BECAUSE THE INDIRECT COSTS DERIVED FROM ALLOCATION OF OTHER NONREVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTERS MUST BE COMPUTED IN DETERMINING THE FULL COST (DIRECT AND INDIRECT COSTS) OF THE NONREVENUE-PRODUCING COST CENTER BEING ALLOCATED. THE STEP-DOWN METHOD RECOGNIZES THAT SERVICES FURNISHED BY CERTAIN NONREVENUE-PRODUCING DEPARTMENTS ARE UTILIZED BY CERTAIN OTHER NONREVENUE-PRODUCING CENTERS AS WELL AS BY THE REVENUE-PRODUCING CENTERS. ALL COSTS OF NONREVENUE-PRODUCING CENTERS ARE ALLOCATED TO ALL CENTERS THAT THEY SERVE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT THESE CENTERS PRODUCE REVENUE. THE COST OF THE NONREVENUE-PRODUCING CENTER SERVING THE GREATEST NUMBER OF OTHER CENTERS, WHILE RECEIVING BENEFITS FROM THE LEAST NUMBER OF CENTERS, IS APPORTIONED FIRST. FOLLOWING THE APPORTIONMENT OF THE COST OF THE NONREVENUE-PRODUCING CENTER, THAT CENTER WILL BE CONSIDERED CLOSED AND NO FURTHER COSTS ARE APPORTIONED TO THAT CENTER. THIS APPLIES EVEN THOUGH IT MAY HAVE RECEIVED SOME SERVICE FROM A CENTER WHOSE COST IS APPORTIONED LATER. GENERALLY, IF TWO CENTERS FURNISH SERVICES TO AN EQUAL NUMBER OF CENTERS WHILE RECEIVING BENEFITS FROM AN EQUAL NUMBER, THAT CENTER WHICH HAS THE GREATEST AMOUNT OF EXPENSE SHOULD BE ALLOCATED FIRST.
Form 990, Sch H, Part III, Line 9bCHARITY (FINANCIAL AID) PROGRAM POLICY/PROCEDURE COLUMBUS COMMUNITY HOSPITAL (CCH) OFFERS A CHARITY/FINANCIAL AID PROGRAM TO PROVIDE UNCOMPENSATED SERVICES TO PEOPLE WHO ARE UNABLE TO PAY. CCH CHARITY/FINANCIAL AID POLICY REFLECTS THE MISSION, VISION AND VALUES OF CCH. IT IS INTENDED TO ASSIST LOW-INCOME, UNDERINSURED AND UNINSURED INDIVIDUALS WHOSE FINANCIAL STATUS, UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S QUALIFICATION CRITERIA, MAKES IT IMPRACTICAL OR IMPOSSIBLE TO PAY FOR NECESSARY MEDICAL SERVICES. CCH HAS A FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY TO SEEK PAYMENT FOR SERVICES FROM THOSE WHO CAN PAY, AND EVERY EFFORT WILL BE MADE TO APPLY CONSISTENT, FAIR AND EQUITABLE FINANCIAL AID PRACTICES IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH ALL APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS AND REGULATIONS. NEEDS ASSESSMENT IN 2010, COLUMBUS COMMUNITY HOSPITAL BEGAN IMPLEMENTING A FIVE YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN. THE PLAN INCLUDES A THOROUGH ASSESSMENT OF THE ORGANIZATION'S EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT IN TERMS OF OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS, AS WELL AS AN ASSESSMENT OF THE ORGANIZATIONS INTERNAL STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES. THE PLAN ALSO INCLUDES STRATEGIC ISSUES, GOALS, AND RELATED STRATEGIES FOR FUTURE ORGANIZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS. SIX ORGANIZATIONAL PILLARS WERE IDENTIFIED: QUALITY, CULTURE, PEOPLE, SERVICE, FACILITIES AND FINANCE. 1)QUALITY - QUALITY EFFORTS HAVE BEEN FOCUSED ON EVIDENCE BASED PROCESSES (EBP) AND EDUCATING STAFF ON THE IMPORTANCE OF USING AND INTEGRATING THESE PROCESSES IN DAILY OPERATIONS. CCH HAS IMPLEMENTED AN ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD TO AFFORD EASE OF INFORMATION ACCESS AND COMMUNICATION ACROSS THE CONTINUUM OF CARE. THE CLINICAL LEADERSHIP GROUP FOR NURSING AND RESPIRATORY THERAPY HAVE INITIATED A REVIEW OF HOW TO INTEGRATE EBP INTO THE CLINICAL AREAS AND WILL BE STARTING CLASSES TO EDUCATE STAFF WITHIN AND OUTSIDE NURSING. 2)CULTURE - IN AN EFFORT TO ACHIEVE A HIGH PERFORMANCE ORGANIZATION, CCH IS IN THE PROCESS OF IMPLEMENTING A 4-PART CULTURE IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVE INCLUDING TEAMSTEPPS, JUST CULTURE, STUDER AND LEAN/SIX SIGMA PROCESS IMPROVEMENT. THE HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO WORK WITH THE STUDER GROUP TO HARDWIRE APPROPRIATE TOOLS, FOCUSING ON IMPROVING PATIENT OUTCOMES AND CREATING A CULTURE/ENVIRONMENT WHERE STAFF WANT TO WORK AND PHYSICIANS WANT TO BRING THEIR PATIENTS. 3)PEOPLE - CCH HAS CONTINUED TO BE AGGRESSIVE IN ITS RECRUITMENT EFFORTS TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN THE WORKFORCE NEEDED TO SUPPORT STRATEGIC GROWTH INITIATIVES ACROSS ALL SERVICE LINES. CCH IS INITIATING A NEW ONBOARDING PROCESS FOR NEW EMPLOYEES. IN ADDITION, NURSING HAS UPDATED THEIR ORIENTATION PROGRAM AND HAS TRAINED PRECEPTORS AND NURSE MENTORS/COACHES. 4)SERVICES - CCH PERFORMS AN ANNUAL, COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM REVIEW OF EXISTING AND NEW SERVICES AND HAS RANKED PRIORITY SERVICE LINE DEVELOPMENT TO BEGIN IN THE AREAS OF HOSPITAL MEDICINE, ORTHOPEDICS, CARDIOLOGY, CANCER AND REHAB SERVICES. 5)FACILITIES - CCH HAS DEVELOPED A COMPREHENSIVE MASTER FACILITIES PLAN THAT CAN ADAPT TO CURRENT AND FUTURE PATIENT CARE NEEDS. AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT EXPANSION WAS COMPLETED IN 2012 AND WE NOW ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BUILDING A NEW MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING WHICH WILL HOUSE OUR VISITING PHYSICIANS AND W.O.C. HEALTH CENTER (WOUND, OSTOMY AND CONTINENCE CARE). 6)FINANCE - CCH WILL WORK DILIGENTLY TO MAINTAIN FINANCIAL STABILITY. THEIR APPROACH INCLUDES: WORK TO EXTEND THE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT WITH A PLAN IN PLACE IF THE PROGRAM IS DISCONTINUED, MAINTAIN A CONSERVATIVE SUCCESSFUL INVESTMENT STRATEGY AND GROW THE CCH FOUNDATION/AUXILIARY. PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE HERE IS A SAMPLE OF WHAT IS AVAILABLE ON OUR CCH WEB SITE WITH DETAILED LINKS. A HARD COPY WITH INFORMATION IS ALSO AVAILABLE IN A SPECIAL WALL UNIT LOCATED INSIDE EACH PATIENT ROOM AS WELL AS IN BROCHURES LOCATED IN OUTPATIENT AREAS. THERE IS ALSO A TUTORIAL LISTING EACH STEP AND LETTING THE PATIENT KNOW WHAT THEY WILL NEED TO BRING ALONG OR HAVE AVAILABLE FOR COPYING PURPOSES. A) MONTHLY PAYMENT OPTION 1. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO PAY YOUR BALANCE IN FULL, PLEASE CALL THE PATIENT ACCOUNTS DEPARTMENT TO SET UP AN ACCEPTABLE PAYMENT ARRANGEMENT. B) PATIENT CHARITY/FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM 1.

MONTHLY STATEMENTS HAVE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION ON THEM: A. PAYMENT PLANS B. CHARITY/FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM C. 24/7 ONLINE BUSINESS OFFICE, WHICH INCLUDES INFORMATION ON PAYMENT PLANS, CHARITY/FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, AND DOWNLOADABLE FINANCIAL/CHARITY APPLICATIONS (AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH). COMMUNITY INFORMATION THE LOCAL ECONOMY- COLUMBUS COMMUNITY HOSPITAL IS LOCATED IN COLUMBUS, NEBRASKA, WHICH IS THE LARGEST CITY IN PLATTE COUNTY. WITH A GROWING POPULATION OF 33,066, PLATTE COUNTY IS THE LARGEST COUNTY OF THE SEVEN COUNTY SERVICE AREAS. FROM JULY 31, 2013 TO JULY 31, 2014, UNEMPLOYMENT IN THE CITY OF COLUMBUS DECREASED SLIGHTLY FROM 3.9% RATE OR 756 JOBLESS TO 3.3% RATE OR 610 JOBLESS. DURING THIS SAME PERIOD OF TIME, THE NEBRASKA JOBLESS RATE WAS 3.6% AND THE NATIONAL AVERAGE WAS REPORTED AT 6.2%. AS REPORTED IN MONEY MAGAZINE, COLUMBUS IS LISTED AS THE THIRD BEST PLACE IN THE U.S. TO FIND EMPLOYMENT AND IN THE TOP 100 BEST SMALL TOWNS TO LIVE. THREE COUNTIES IN NEBRASKA WERE LISTED IN THE TOP TEN COUNTIES IN THE U.S. TO LIVE AND WORK, INCLUDING PLATTE, MADISON (WHICH IS CONTIGUOUS TO PLATTE COUNTY) AND SARPY COUNTY NEAR LINCOLN, NEBRASKA. OUR LOCAL ECONOMY IS BASED ON AGRICULTURE AND MANUFACTURING, WITH MANY INDUSTRIAL COMPANIES ATTRACTED BY PLENTIFUL, LOW-PRICED HYDROELECTRIC POWER. AMONG THE MAJOR EMPLOYERS ARE ARCHER DANIELS MIDLAND (ADM), AN ETHANOL MANUFACTURING COMPANY; FLEX-CON; CENTRAL CONFINEMENT SERVICE; PILLEN FAMILY FARMS; VISHAY; BD MEDICAL PLANTS, A MEDICAL EQUIPMENT COMPANY; BEHLEN MANUFACTURING, WHICH MANUFACTURES STEEL BUILDINGS; AND NEBRASKA PUBLIC POWER, WITH HEADQUARTERS LOCATED IN COLUMBUS. DUE TO SUCCESSFUL ECONOMIC AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT IN OUR AREA, THIS LARGE MANUFACTURING BASE REMAINS INTACT. A HARD-WORKING, WELL-EDUCATED WORKFORCE, LOW ENERGY COSTS AND A LOCAL ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY TO BUSINESS, PROVIDE ENCOURAGEMENT FOR STRONG ECONOMIC AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT WITHIN OUR SERVICE AREA. ACCORDING TO THE NEBRASKA DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, COLUMBUS IS CONSIDERED A MAJOR HUB FOR THE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY AND HAS A GREATER SHARE OF MANUFACTURING EMPLOYMENT THAN OTHER NEBRASKA METROPOLITAN AREAS. WE CONTINUE TO SEE AN INFLUX OF SINGLE AND YOUNG FAMILIES MOVING INTO OUR AREA SEEKING EMPLOYMENT. OUR COMMUNITY GROWTH CORRELATES TO OUR CONTINUING INCREASE IN HOSPITAL OUTPATIENT VISITS. OUTPATIENT VISITS REACHED 44,613 VISITS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING APRIL 2014. IN 2005, OUR OUTPATIENT VISITS OVER A TWELVE MONTH PERIOD TOTALED 38,129. THIS 17% INCREASE IN OUR OUTPATIENT VISITS OVER THE PAST NINE YEARS IS A REFLECTION OF THE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT THE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT HAS HAD ON OUR HOSPITAL. SERVICE CAPACITY: THE W.O.C. HEALTH CENTER OPENED AUGUST OF 2008. IT HAS GROWN TO 1,107 PATIENTS/VISITS AS OF APRIL 30, 2014. THE IDENTIFIED SERVICE AREA INCLUDES A 45-MILE RADIUS AROUND COLUMBUS. THE W.O.C. HEALTH CENTER IS LOCATED IN THE VISITING PHYSICIAN OFFICE SUITE OF THE ATTACHED MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING. THE CENTER HAS SCHEDULED VISITS TWO DAYS PER WEEK. ADDITIONAL NURSE STAFF TIME IS SPENT EACH WEEK ASSISTING OUTPATIENT CLIENTS WITH WOUND APPLICATIONS, AS WELL AS ASSISTING WITH APPLICATIONS OF WOUND VACS IN SURGERY OR ON OUR MEDICAL FLOOR, SCHEDULING APPOINTMENTS AND OTHER RESPONSIBILITIES SUCH AS ORDERING SUPPLIES AND MAINTAINING COMPLIANCE WITH NATIONAL STANDARDS. PREVIOUSLY, PATIENTS SEEKING THIS SPECIALIZED TREATMENT WERE REQUIRED TO TRAVEL ON AVERAGE 75 MILES TO SEE A WOUND CENTER SPECIALIST. THE VOLUME WE ARE SEEING AT THIS W.O.C. HEALTH CENTER REINFORCES THE AMOUNT OF COMMUNITY NEED THAT EXISTED FOR THIS SERVICE AND HAS GREATLY INCREASED THE LOCAL ACCESS FOR SO MANY OF OUR HIGHER ACUITY PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. OUR NURSES ARE WCOM CERTIFIED, SO IN ADDITION TO WOUND CARE, OUR PATIENTS WHO HAVE CHALLENGES WITH OSTOMY APPLIANCES AND CONTINENCE PROBLEMS CAN BE ADDRESSED.
Form 990, Sch H, Part III, Line 9b (Continued)CCH INSTALLED A NEW CT SCANNER, NEW RADIOLOGIC/FLUOROSCOPY SYSTEM AND NUCLEAR MEDICINE CAMERA. THESE REPLACED EXISTING SYSTEMS. WE RECENTLY OPENED A WOMEN'S IMAGING AREA WITHIN THE HOSPITAL WHICH IS SEPARATE FROM THE RADIOLOGY DEPARTMENT. A NEW REGISTRATION AREA RECENTLY OPENED WHICH PROVIDES PATIENT PRIVACY. WE REDUCED OUR MAMMOGRAPHY PROCEDURE PRICING 21% ON FEBRUARY 8, 2012 AND SOUGHT AND RECEIVED A SUSAN G. KOMEN GRANT, WHICH THE HOSPITAL FOUNDATION MATCHED, TO PROMOTE MAMMOGRAPHY SCREENING FOR WOMEN IN THE COMMUNITY. IN 2010 WE CHANGED OUR BONE DENSITY SERVICE FROM CONTRACTING WITH A MOBILE SERVICE UNIT TO PURCHASING OUR OWN BONE DENSITY STATIONARY EQUIPMENT, THE NECESSARY SUPPORT EQUIPMENT AND TRAINED STAFF. THE BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY INCLUDE INCREASED ACCESS FOR PATIENTS AND PROVIDERS WHO NO LONGER HAVE TO WAIT FOR DIAGNOSIS WITH THE MOBILE UNITS' INTERMITTENT SERVICE. THIS IS ANOTHER NEW PROGRAM MADE POSSIBLE BY THE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT THAT INCREASES ACCESS AND ELIMINATES THE NEED TO TRAVEL OUT OF TOWN FOR PROMPT DIAGNOSIS. COLUMBUS COMMUNITY HOSPITAL IS A 47 BED, ACUTE CARE HOSPITAL SERVING NEEDS OFFERING A VARIETY OF SURGICAL PROCEDURES AND SHORT TERM HOSPITALIZATIONS. ALL 47 BEDS ARE LICENSED FOR EITHER ACUTE CARE OR SWING BED PATIENTS. IN ADDITION, WE PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE OUTPATIENT LABORATORY, RADIOLOGY, RESPIRATORY AND REHABILITATIVE SERVICES. WE ALSO PROVIDE FREE INTERPRETER SERVICES 24/7. OUR FACILITY OFFERS COMPREHENSIVE CARE, INCLUDING INTENSIVE CARE, MEDICAL-SURGICAL CARE, INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SURGICAL PROCEDURES (GENERAL, ENT, UROLOGY, PODIATRY, ORTHOPEDIC), AS WELL AS OTHER COMPLIMENTARY ANCILLARY SERVICES INCLUDING RESPIRATORY, WOUND CARE, DIABETES EDUCATION, ENDOSCOPIES AND CARDIOPULMONARY REHABILITATION. IN 2006, THE HOSPITAL'S EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT WAS DESIGNATED AS A LEVEL III TRAUMA CENTER WITH NURSES CERTIFIED IN TNCC, ACLS AND PALS. EIGHT OF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT NURSES ARE ALSO CERTIFIED IN ENPC. A 30,000 SQUARE FOOT, ADDITION IN 2012 PROVIDED THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT WITH EXPANDED SPACE. THE ED ADDED TWO TRAUMA BAYS, A TWO-BAY AMBULANCE GARAGE, A DEDICATED DECONTAMINATION AREA, A DEDICATED FAMILY GRIEF AND COUNSELING ROOM, COVERED DRIVE-UP ACCESS AND A NEGATIVE AIR-PRESSURE ROOM, WHICH ALLOWS PATIENTS WITH COMMUNICABLE DISEASES TO BE TREATED WHILE PROTECTING OTHER PATIENTS AND STAFF. OUR HOME HEALTH/HOSPICE INTERDISCIPLINARY SERVICES ARE PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WITHIN A 30 MILE RADIUS OF COLUMBUS AND CAN PROVIDE IN HOME TELEHEALTH MONITORING. THE HOSPITAL'S SLEEP LAB PROVIDES POLYSOMNOGRAPHIC SLEEP TESTING. IN ADDITION, WE HAVE AVAILABLE BOTH DAYTIME AND HOME SLEEP TESTS. IN JANUARY 2010, THE HOSPITAL HIRED A FULLTIME RN AS THE ORTHOPEDIC SERVICE LINE COORDINATOR. A MULTI-DISCIPLINARY TEAM WAS ORGANIZED TO REVIEW, STANDARDIZE AND IMPROVE THE PATIENT'S TOTAL JOINT PROCESS FROM DIAGNOSIS TO POST-SURGICAL RECOVERY IN NOVEMBER. IN MARCH, 2012 THE HOSPITAL ACQUIRED COLUMBUS ORTHOPEDIC AND SPORTS MEDICINE CLINIC, ENABLING THE HOSPITAL TO EXPAND THE SERVICE LINE AND ENSURE THE COMMUNITY'S AGING POPULATION ORTHOPEDIC SERVICES CLOSE TO HOME. IN MAY 2013, WE EXPANDED THE RN COORDINATORS RESPONSIBILITY INTO CASE MANAGEMENT IN THE TRANSITIONAL CARE DEPARTMENT. THIS EXPANSION OF HER DUTIES ENABLES US TO PLAN FOR CONTINUITY OF CARE POST HOSPITALIZATION. THREE CARDIOLOGISTS HAVE RELOCATED TO COLUMBUS, PROVIDING FULL TIME CARDIOLOGY SERVICES TO THE AREA. SINCE 2010, 63 PHYSICIANS IN TOTAL HAVE BEEN RECRUITED TO SERVICE THE NEEDS OF OUR PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SERVICE AREAS TO INCLUDE 55 MDS, 1 DPM AND 7 MIDLEVELS, 34 ARE FULL TIME PROVIDERS AND THE OTHER 29 ARE SERVING THE COMMUNITY IN A VISITING CAPACITY. THE HOSPITAL HAS COMPLETED CONSTRUCTION ON THREE ROAD PROJECTS ON AND AROUND THE CAMPUS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO THE FACILITY. TWO CLINIC BUILDINGS, ONE FOR A FAMILY PRACTICE GROUP AND ONE FOR A PHARMACY HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AS WELL. THE HOSPITAL'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS AUTHORIZED THE CONSTRUCTION OF A $21.0 MILLION, 85,723 SQUARE FEET COMMUNITY WELLNESS CENTER FOR USE BY THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY. THE FACILITY WILL BE LEASED TO THE YMCA, WITH 62,397 SQUARE FEET CONTAINING 2 GYMS, POOL, WEIGHTS AND EXERCISE EQUIPMENT PROMOTING EXERCISE AND WELLNESS IN OUR COMMUNITY. THE FACILITY WILL ALSO HOUSE THE HOSPITAL'S ADULT THERAPIES AND PEDIATRIC THERAPY.
