Group A-Facility 2 -- Sisters of Charity Hospital - St. Joseph Part V, Section B, line 11:Catholic Health 2022-2024 Prevention Agenda Priorities and Disparity:In collaboration with the Erie County Department of Health and other community partners, the following priorities, goals, focus areas and interventions were selected for the Catholic Health Community Health Improvement Plans. Priority Area #1 and Priority Area #2 were priorities identified by the Erie County Department of Health and selected for our community collaboration. Catholic Health is required to align with at least two county Priority Areas as part of the CHNA process. Of note, the Niagara County Department of Health identified the same priorities.Priority Area #1: Prevent Chronic Diseases:Disparity: SocioeconomicFocus Area 1: Healthy Eating and Food SecurityOverarching Goal: Reduce obesity and the risk of chronic diseaseGoal 1.13: Increase the percentage of adults with perceived food securityPriority Area #2: Promote Well-Being and Prevent Mental and Substance Use Disorders:Disparity: SocioeconomicFocus Area 1: Promote Well-BeingGoal 1.2: Facilitate supportive environments that promote respect and dignity for people of all agesGoal 2.2: Prevent opioid and other substance misuse and deathsFocus Area 2: Prevent Mental and Substance Use DisordersGoal 2.2: Prevent opioid and other substance misuse and deathsPriority Area #3: Promote Healthy Women, Infants, and Children:Disparity: EthnicityFocus Area 1: Maternal and Women's HealthGoal 1.2: Reduce maternal mortality and morbidityFocus Area 2: Perinatal and Infant HealthGoal 2.2: Increase breastfeedingA comprehensive review of outcome data from a variety of state and national resources were reviewed as part of the CHNA process. Primary resources utilized included the New York Prevention Agenda Dashboard, data from the United States census reporting, the University of Wisconsin's Population Health Institute's County Health Rankings and Roadmaps, as well as others. Due to the proximity and nature of the interrelationships between Erie and Niagara counties, as well as the reach of the Catholic Health service area and goal for high level of inclusivity for community health, data from both counties is represented in the following report. This provides a more comprehensive view of the overall service area while still allowing county specific needs to be identified.The overall assessment process is a collaborative effort between Catholic Health, Erie County Department of Health, and other local organizations and hospitals. More than 15 organizations directly participated in planning meetings and feedback sessions and over 1,300 residents responded to the CHNA survey. Input was also solicited from a broad range of other community organizations, individuals, and groups. This input helped validate and bring focus to areas of specific need and disparity, as well as helped prioritize interventions to address the needs of those we serve. The completed assessment and analysis of the data provided a framework for the health system's overall implementation plan to support priority needs that were identified for the community over the next three years.The progress and overall improvement related to the Prevention Agenda priorities in the Catholic Health improvement plan will be monitored by the internal leaders who are coordinating the interventions identified by the teams to support the priorities identified and as outlined on the CHIP template provided by the New York State Department of Health. Catholic Health will submit updates on progress towards each intervention annually, or as requested. The county's steering committee representatives will also continue to meet at least annually and review progress as well as explore new opportunities to collaborate on to support the priority areas. The Prevention Agenda Dashboard will continue to serve as the primary resource to track latest available trending details and monitor outcome data. While Catholic Health is committed to serving the community through the CHNA priorities in this report, there are a number of needs that were not incorporated into Catholic Health's individual 2022-2024 Community Health Improvement Plan at this time for one or more of the following reasons:*Requires resources that Catholic Health does not currently have available without compromising other important initiatives.*Is being targeted or addressed by other entities within the community.*Was deemed not as impactful on the overall health of the community as compared to other identified needs.Should community circumstances change or additional resources become available, Catholic Health will consider incorporating other initiatives into its plan.The Community Health Needs Assessment and Community Health Improvement Plan processes are linked directly to requirements specified by the Federal Internal Revenue Service and the New York State Department of Health. Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, the Internal Revenue Service requires all state-licensed, tax-exempt hospitals to develop a Community Health Needs Assessment and Community Health Improvement Plan to maintain their Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. Similarly, New York State requires hospitals and local health departments to collaborate within their community to identify local health priorities and to plan and implement a strategy for local health improvement focused on the Prevention Agenda 2022-2024: New York State Health Improvement Plan.Part V, line 7a page 8: https://www.chsbuffalo.org/mission/social-responsibility-community-benefitPart V, line 10a page 8: https://www.chsbuffalo.org/mission/social-responsibility-community-benefit

For example, Sisters Hospital, like our other Catholic Health facilities, has posters and brochures available, which include eligibility and contact information for the Patient Financial Services Team. This information is available in admissions areas, emergency rooms, primary care and outpatient rehabilitation centers, the Administrative and Regional Training Center (ARTC) and other areas throughout Catholic Health where eligible patients and family members are likely to be present. This information is also on the website https://www.chsbuffalo.org/billing-insurance/financial-assistance and includes general information, our policy and application and is translated in Spanish and Arabic. In addition, information on financial assistance is included on our website.Sisters Hospital also provides information about financial assistance and Healthcare Assistance program (HAP) contact information to patients as part of the intake process and during or within 90 days of their discharge from the hospital via patient statements or outreach.

For more details please visit www.chsbuffalo.org/financial assistance, or call our Patient Financial Services Team at (716) 601-3600". For free, confidential assistance in applying for financial assistance, patients can also call our Patient Financial Services team at 716-601-3600.

Part VI, Line 5:One of the fundamental reasons for the creation of Catholic Health was to ensure the continued viability of faith-based health care to meet the needs of residents in Erie County, Niagara County and the surrounding communities. The Mission statement of Sisters Hospital, as part of Catholic Health - We are called to reveal the healing love of Jesus to those in need - further articulates why we exist. Integral to this effort is caring for the needs of those who are poor and disadvantaged. The services provided by Sisters Hospital are in response to identified community needs, and reflect the Hospitals's emphasis on caring for the underserved. The Hospital collaborates with other charitable organizations and social service agencies (i.e. Catholic Charities, Spectrum Human Services, Evergreen Health Services, Erie County Department of Health, Niagara County Department of Health, etc.), to maximize its ability to provide needed services to the residents of our region.The governing Board of Directors of Sisters Hospital is comprised of community representatives from universities, legal communities, and business leaders. Religious orders are represented, as well as active andretired medical staff members. The Sisters Hospital medical staff is considered an "open" medical staff, as any physician can apply for privileges. Each application is reviewed by a vigorous credentialing verification process. The hospitals have robust health professional education programs. Mercy Hospital and Sisters Hospital are physician teaching facilities. All sites participate in teaching programs for other allied health professionals.Our six emergency departments are open to all people regardless of their ability to pay. Our primary care centers are strategically located in areas deemed economically disadvantaged or where other medical services are lacking.Each year, Sisters Hospital, as part of Catholic Health touches thousands of area residents through its community health education programs, health screenings, clinical and support services, and communityservice activities. Most of these program are free to encourage participation by people from all walks of life. Programs offered also include those that are in alignment with state prevention priorities. Catholic Health continues to meet community needs by making charity care a priority and available to the uninsured and underinsured, traditional Medicaid services, and community benefit programs, including collaborative community health improvement initiatives, health professional education programs, volunteering and community service activities, and cash and in-kind contributions to community organizations that serve the poor and disadvantaged. In 2024, the Catholic Health System provided more than $160 million in charity care and community benefit activities to help make our WNY community a healthier place, especially for the poor and underserved. These activities included: -Supporting Project Homeless Connect - An outreach initiative to link homeless individuals and families with medical and other support services;-Offering a Healthcare Assistance Program to ensure that people without insurance or financial means get the care they need; -Providing health and wellness information in places of worship through our Faith Community Nursing program; -Supporting nationally recognized "green" initiatives to remain good stewards of our natural resources and protect the environment.
