United Hospital DistrictPart V, Section B, Line 5: Four focus groups were scheduled to occur between November 8-10, 2023, to obtain information from community residents for UHD's CHNA. The UHD leadership team initially provided names, demographics, and contact information for 87 potential attendees. Each focus group included a mix of attendees representing their community. All four focus groups were originally scheduled to be held in person but one was held remote to accomodate more people. Attendees included seniors, representatives from businesses, health care consumers, active health care providers, parents, school representatives, and lifelong residents.
United Hospital DistrictPart V, Section B, Line 11: In 2023, United Hospital District (UHD) commissioned a community health needs assessment to evaluate the healthcare needs of its service area: Faribault, Freeborn, Martin, and Blue Earth Counties in Minnesota, and Kossuth and Winnebago Counties in Iowa.The CHNA was completed in December 2023. In 2020, UHD identified three strategies on which to focus from 2021 through 2023. Secondary data, focus groups, and key stakeholder interviews confirmed that these strategies remain relevant. The priorities identified by the CHNA teams are as follows: **Goal 1: Provide and Promote Education Opportunities to the Communities We Serve. **Goal 2: Match the Scope of Services with the Needs of the Communities We Serve**Goal 3: Promote, Partner, and Enhance Mental Health ServicesThe following actions were taken in the current year to address the needs identified above: **Goal 1: Provide and Promote Education Opportunities to the Communities We Serve. 1. Survey responses indicate there is an opportunity to better communicate about services or available preventive support. 2. Some focus group respondents indicated that they were not sure what services UHD offers. 3. Leverage all modes of communication that will reach the senior population as well as younger community members. **Action Item A: UHD hosted a community fair highlighting services offered within our organization. Physicians, Advanced Practice Providers and UHD employees attended this event to answer questions and provide additional information to the communities we serve. We have also placed focus internally on education, hiring a nurse educator to work with staff internally on training. Additionally, this nurse education will work to develop prenatal classes for the community. With OB and surgical services being closed in the neighboring city, UHD has focused our marketing efforts around these service areas to ensure our community knows they can continue to receive those services close to home. **Action Item B: Worked with senior center for good exercises, limit trip/fall hazards in the home.**Action Item C: Provided education for large 25-44 population and COPD/stroke population.**Goal 2: Match the Scope of Services with the Needs of the Communities We Serve:1. The CHNA results encouraged UHD to continue developing partnerships with businesses, faith groups, and schools (including schools in within the counties but not located in Blue Earth).**Action Item A: UHD is more actively participating in meetings with local public health. We have engaged physicians to participate in the meetings that are held quarterly. The 2 meetings currently being attended are "Access the Health and "Stronger Together."**Goal 3: Promote, Partner, and Enhance Mental Health Services1. As in many communities, there is an opportunity to address issues related to mental illness. Following best practice recommendations, this is not something the hospital can do alone. **Action Item A: UHD has worked with partnering to bring psychiatry services to our community. This is done via telemedicine onsite at UHD with 2 licensed psychiatrists currently credentialed to offer services, especially related to medication management. **Action Item B: 50-page Mental Health booklet was completed and printed. MH Providers have put it into use and has been well received.**Action Item C: MH Access Expanded (location and/or provider): MH PhD is up and running in the Fairmont location 3 days/week, currently limiting to 1 new referral per day due to current caseload.
United Hospital DistrictPart V, Section B, Line 13h: Documents that may be reviewed include completed application, recent tax statements, bank denial and MA denial. The Organization also follows the state agreement.

Part I, Line 3c:In addition to the Federal Poverty Guidelines, documents that may be reviewed include completed application, recent tax statements, bank denial and MA denial. The Organization also follows the state agreement.
Part I, Line 7:Charity care expense was converted to cost on line 7a based on an overall cost-to-charge ratio addressing all patient segments. Unreimbursed Medicaid on line 7b and subsidized health services on line 7g were determined using the costing methods to prepare the cost reports.
Part III, Line 2:The amount reported on line 2 represents implicit price concessions. The Hospital determines its estimate of implicit price concessions based on its historical collection experience with this class of patients.
Part III, Line 3:The Organization estimates that 25% of bad debt expense is attributable to patients eligible for financial assistance under the financial assistance policy. We estimate that 25% of those who should have completed financial assistance forms and applications could have qualified for financial assistance had they applied.
Part III, Line 4:The footnote to the organization's financial statements addressing implicit price concessions may be found on pages 11 and 12 of the attached audited financial statements.
Part III, Line 8:Medicare allowable costs were obtained from the 2024 Medicare cost report. The Medicare Cost Report is completed based on the rules and regulations set forth by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.The Organization reported a shortfall in 2024. Even though Medicare was at a loss, the Hospital provides services to these patients because access to healthcare and individual's health is important to the Hospital. Therefore, the Medicare shortfall is considered a community benefit.
Part III, Line 9b:Within 7 days after an insurance payment, the patient will start receiving monthly billings. Statements are sent on a monthly cycle basis. If no payment is received 30 days after the statement went out, the patient is contacted by phone. If no payment is received for 90 days, the patient is contacted by letter to advise him or her of further collection actions to be taken. When agreed upon amounts are not paid off, arrangements can be made for a series of payments to fulfill a patient's obligation. Each account is reviewed by a business office staff member before placing with a collection agency. A financial assistance application submitted by a patient will be processed for at least 240 days following their first post discharge billing statement. If an individual submits a financial assistance application after collection actions have started, collection actions will be suspended until financial assistance eligibility is determined. If an individual is determined to be eligible for financial assistance, no further collection actions will be taken. If an individual is determined to be eligible for financial assistance after collection actions have started, the collection actions will be reversed.
Part VI, Line 2:UHD has standing advisory committees with representation from our communities for Home Health/Hospice. Input from the members helps set the strategies and initiatives for improvement. We've also had Focus Groups to address Obstetrical services and another for Orthopedic services. Our patient satisfaction survey incorporates a comments section which gives our patients a voice to make suggestions.
Part VI, Line 3:UHD provides the following information for financial assistance: (1) posts its charity care policy, or a summary thereof, and financial assistance contact information in admissions areas, emergency rooms, and other areas of the organization's facilities in which eligible patients are likely to be present; (2) provides a copy of the policy, or a summary thereof, and financial assistance contact information to patients as part of the intake process; (3) provides a copy of the policy, or a summary thereof, and financial assistance contact information to patients with discharge materials; (4) includes the policy, or a summary thereof, along with financial assistance contact information, in patient bills; and/or (5) discusses with the patient the availability of various government benefits, such as Medicaid or state programs, and assists the patient with qualification for such programs, where applicable. In addition, the Business Office has several certified individuals to assist with applications for both State and Federal insurance plans. The financial assistance application and a copy of the financial assistance policy are also posted to the Organization's website.
Part VI, Line 4:UHD is located in Blue Earth, Minnesota, a community of approximately 3,400 situated in the west central end of Faribault County. The county borders Martin County to the west, Freeborn County to the east, Blue Earth County to the north, and two Iowa counties, Kossuth and Winnebago, to the south.UHD is the only hospital serving Faribault County and the northern Iowa adjacent counties.
