PART I, LINE 3C: GRIFFIN HOSPITAL CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY FOR FREE CARE OR DISCOUNTED CARE INCLUDE ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS. ALL GUARANTORS WITH FAMILY INCOME EQUAL TO OR BELOW TWO HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY STANDARD ADJUSTED FOR FAMILY SIZE SHALL BE DETERMINED TO BE INDIGENT PERSONS QUALIFYING FOR CHARITY SPONSORSHIP FOR THE FULL AMOUNT OF HOSPITAL CHARGES RELATED TO APPROPRIATE HOSPITAL-BASED MEDICAL SERVICES THAT ARE NOT COVERED BY PRIVATE OR PUBLIC THIRD-PARTY SPONSORSHIP. ALL GUARANTORS WITH FAMILY INCOME BETWEEN TWO HUNDRED ONE PERCENT (201%) AND FOUR HUNDRED PERCENT (400%) OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY STANDARD ADJUSTED FOR FAMILY SIZE SHALL BE DETERMINED TO BE INDIGENT PERSONS QUALIFYING FOR DISCOUNTS FROM CHARGES RELATED TO APPROPRIATE HOSPITAL BASED MEDICAL SERVICES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE HOSPITAL'S SLIDING FEE SCHEDULE AND POLICIES REGARDING INDIVIDUAL FINANCIAL CIRCUMSTANCES BASED ON THE BELOW CRITERIA: A. ELIGIBILITY SHALL BE BASED ON FIANCIAL NEED AT THE TIME OF APPLICATION BY COMPARING TOTAL FAMILY INCOME WITH THE CURRENT FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES. IF A FAMILY'S TOTAL INCOME IS GREATER THAN 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINE FAMILY ASSETS, OTHER THAN EXEMPT ASSETS LISTED BELOW, MAY BE CONSIDERED AS A SOURCE OF PAYMENT. B. EXEMPT ASSETS (BASED ON MEDICARE EXEMPTED ASSETS) LISTED BELOW SHOULD NOT BE ADDED TO FAMILY WORTH FOR CHARITY REVIEW: I. FAMILY PRINICPAL RESIDENCE; II. NECESSARY MOTOR VEHICLES REQUIRED FOR EMPLOYMENT, REQUIRED FOR ACCESS TO TREATMENT, OR MODIFIED FOR OPERATION OR TRANSPORT OF A DISABLED PERSON; III. PERSONAL EFFECTS AND HOUSEHOLD GOODS; IV. RESOURCES NECESSARY FOR SELF-SUPPORT. ALL RESOURCES OF BOTH SPOUSES ARE CONSIDERED TOGETHER. C. CHARITY WILL BE ASSIGNED USING THE MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED FEDERAL POVERTY STANDARDS AND EVALUATED ON THE ADJUSTED FAMILY INCOME AS EXPLAINED ABOVE FOR THOSE ABOVE 201% OF SUCH STANDARDS. D. DOCUMENTATION WILL BE REQUESTED AND IN MOST CASES WILL BE REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY CARE. IN THE EVENT THAT THE GUARANTOR IS NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE THE DOCUMENTATION DESCRIBED ABOVE, THE HOSPITAL SHALL RELY UPON WRITTEN AND SIGNED STATEMENTS FROM THE GUARANTOR TO MAKE A FINAL DETERMINATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR CLASSIFICATION AS AN INDIGENT PERSON.
GRIFFIN HOSPITAL DID PREPARE A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT FOR YEAR ENDING 2013, WHICH WAS INCLUDED AS PART OF OUR ANNUAL REPORT.	PART I, LINE 6A:
GRIFFIN HOSPITAL POSTS ITS COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT AND INFORMATION ON THE HOSPITAL WEBSITE GRIFFINHEALTH.ORG.	PART I, LINE 6B:
CHARITY CARE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS WERE CALCULATED USING A COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM OR COST TO CHARGE RATIO. THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM ADDRESSES ALL PATIENT SEGMENTS AND ASSIGNS COSTS TO INDIVIDUAL SERVICES.	PART I, LINE 7:
PART III, LINE 4: SEE PAGE 11 OF THE ATTACHED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.PART III, LINE 2:GRIFFIN HOSPITAL BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS DETERMINED USING UNCOLLECTED ACCOUNTS NET OF ANY BAD DEBT RECOVERY MULTIPLIED BY THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO. GRIFFIN HOSPITAL HAS A WRITTEN POLICY ABOUT WHEN AND UNDER WHOSE AUTHORITY PATIENT DEBT IS ADVANCED FOR COLLECTION AND SHALL USE ITS BEST EFFORTS TO ENSURE THAT THE PATIENT ACCOUNTS ARE PROCESSED FAIRLY AND CONSISTENTLY. CHARTIY APPROVAL WILL AFFECT ALL ACCOUNTS FOR WHICH THE APPROVED GUARANTOR IS RESPONSIBLE. THE APPROVED CHARITY PERCENTAGE WILL BE APPLIED TO ALL EXISTING ACCOUNTS WITH DEBIT BALANCES. ACCOUNTS MAY ALSO BE RETURNED FROM BAD DEBT STATUS IF FINANCIAL CIRCUMSTANCES WARRANT AND CHARITY MAY BE APPLIED. THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER ITS FREE CARE POLICY WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN IT'S ESTABLISHED AND CONTRACTUAL RATES. BECAUSE THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS FREE CARE, THEY ARE NOT REPORTED AS NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE.GRIFFIN HOSPITAL DOES NOT ATTRIBUTE ANY BAD DEBT TO COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE. UNCOLLECTED BALANCES ARE REVIEWED AT MANY STAGES TO DETERMINE IF THEY FALL UNDER UNINSURED OR FREE CARE ASSISTANCE.
PART III, LINE 8: THE $7.107 MILLION MEDICARE SHORTFALL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THE IRS COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD INCLUDES THE PROVISION OF CARE TO THE ELDERLY AND MEDICARE PATIENTS. MEDICARE SHORTFALLS MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE ELDERLY IN OUR COMMUNITY. THIS YEAR MEDICARE ACCOUNTED FOR 5.5% OF HOSPITAL EXPENSES. THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE REGARDLESS OF THIS SHORTFALL AND THEREBY RELIEVES THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE BURDEN OF PAYING THE FULL COST FOR MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES.
PART III, LINE 9B: GRIFFIN HOSPITAL HAS A WRITTEN POLICY ABOUT WHEN AND UNDER WHOSE AUTHORITY PATIENT DEBT IS ADVANCED FOR COLLECTION AND SHALL USE ITS BEST EFFORTS TO ENSURE THE PATIENT AMOUNTS ARE PROCESSED FAIRLY AND CONSISTENTLY. GRIFFIN WILL ENSURE THAT PRACTICES TO BE USED BY THEIR OUTSIDE COLLECTION AGENCIES WILL CONFORM TO THE STANDARDS SET FORTH IN THIS POLICY AND SHALL OBTAIN WRITTEN COMMITMENTS FROM SUCH AGENCIES AT TIME OF BILLING. GRIFFIN WILL PROVIDE TO ALL LOW INCOME UNINSURED PATIENTS THE SAME INFORMATION CONCERNING SERVICES AND CHARGES PROVIDED TO ALL OTHER PATIENTS WHO RECEIVE CARE AT THE HOSPITAL. FOR PATIENTS WHO HAVE AN APPLICATION PENDING DETERMINATION FOR EITHER GOVERNMENT SPONSORED COVERAGE OR FOR THE HOSPITAL'S OWN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, GRIFFIN WILL NOT KNOWINGLY SEND THAT PATIENT'S BILL TO A COLLECTION AGENCY. IF A PATIENT DOES NOT MAINTAIN THE AGREED UPON PAYMENT SCHEDULE THE AMOUNT WILL BE FORWARDED TO AN OUTSIDE COLLECTION AGENCY AT THE FULL REMAINING BALANCE. IF IT IS LATER DETERMINED BY THE GRIFFIN HOSPITAL OR OR A COLLECTION AGENCY ACTING ON BEHALF OF GRIFFIN HOSPITAL THAT THE PATIENT FINANCIAL CONDITIONS HAVE CHANGED AND THE PATIENT WAS UNABLE TO PAY THE OUTSTANDING ACCOUNT BALANCES AN OVERRIDE MAY BE APPLIED BY THE BUSINESS SERVICES DIRECTOR. THE UNCOLLECTED DEBT WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO UNINSURED OR FREE CARE ASSISTANCE BY THE SUPERVISOR AFTER REVIEW.
PART V, SECTION B, LINE 3: REGIONAL COOPERATION ON HEALTH ISSUES - REGIONAL COOPERATION, THE LEADERSHIP OF GRIFFIN HOSPITAL ON COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT AND THE EFFECTIVENESS OF EFFORTS WAS POSITIVELY NOTED IN FOCUS GROUPS, FORUMS AND SURVEYS. OF PARTICULAR NOTE WAS THE VALLEY COUNCIL OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS (VCHHSO). GRIFFIN HOSPITAL WAS A LEADER IN ESTABLISHING THE VALLEY COUNCIL OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS WHICH HAS BECOME A MODEL FOR OTHER COMMUNITIES. THE VALLEY COUNCIL IS A COOPERATIVE VENTURE FOUNDED OVER TWENTY YEARS AGO LINKING APPROXIMATELY 50 NON-PROFIT HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICE PROVIDERS THROUGHOUT THE VALLEY. ITS MISSION IS TO IDENTIFY, PLAN, IMPLEMENT, AND COORDINATE A COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEM OF HUMAN SERVICE DELIVERY AND TO ADVOCATE FOR COMMUNITY-WIDE AND CULTURALLY DIVERSE PLANNING APPROACHES IN THE LARGER VALLEY COMMUNITY. DECISION MAKERS FROM EACH OF THE ACTIVE MEMBERS MEET MONTHLY. THE COUNCIL'S OBJECTIVES ARE TO: 1. ENGAGE IN PERIODIC ASSESSMENT AND IDENTIFICATION OF LOCAL SERVICE NEEDS, INCLUDING CLIENT INPUT. 2. COLLABORATIVELY EVALUATE CURRENT SERVICES, IDENTIFY GAPS, AND STRATEGIZE ON HOW TO FILL GAPS IN SERVICES. 3. SERVE AS THE PRIMARY PLANNING AND COORDINATING BODY FOR THE REGIONS' SERVICE PROVISION SYSTEM. 4. PROVIDE A PLACE FOR SUPPORT AND NETWORKING AMONG THE VALLEY HUMAN SERVICES COMMUNITY. 5. ADVOCATE FOR THE NEEDS OF LOCAL RESIDENTS AND FOR RESOURCES TO MEET THOSE NEEDS ON A LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL LEVEL. 6. SEEK TO DEVELOP PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER COMMUNITY SYSTEMS (I.E. SCHOOLS, BUSINESSES, STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, PUBLIC SAFETY) TO ENHANCE SERVICE DELIVERY. GRIFFIN REMAINS AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF THE COUNCIL. NOT ONLY IS GRIFFIN HOSPITAL A CONTINUING MEMBER, THE VALLEY PARISH NURSE PROGRAM AND THE YALE-GRIFFIN PREVENTION RESEARCH CENTER ALSO ARE MEMBERS. THE COMMUNITY ADVISORY COUNCIL ENGAGED THE PATIENTS AND THE COMMUNITY TO GET MEANINGFUL FEEDBACK ABOUT THE HOSPITAL'S SERVICES. THROUGHOUT ITS HISTORY, GRIFFIN'S MOST INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED USING INSIGHTS GLEANED FROM PATIENTS AND FAMILY MEMBER FOCUS GROUPS. THE COMMUNITY ADVISORY COUNCIL WAS A NATURAL NEXT STEP FOR GRIFFIN AS A WAY TO SOLICIT THE PATIENT'S PERSPECTIVE OF CARE, PROGRAMS AND SERVICES AND TO IDENTIFY COMMUNITY NEEDS ON AN ONGOING BASIS.THE VALLEY CARES TASKFORCE BETH PATTON COMERFORD, MS, YALE-GRIFFIN PREVENTION RESEARCH CENTER (TASKFORCE CO-CHAIR) MARY S.

SPARGO, MA, MPH, NAUGATUCK VALLEY HEALTH DISTRICT JESSE REYNOLDS, MS, (CURRENTLY YALE UNIVERSITY) ANN HARRISON, THE WORKPLACE, INC. (CURRENTLY WORKFORCE ALLIANCE). THE MATERIAL IN THIS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT WILL DOCUMENT GRIFFIN'S COMMITMENT TO THE SIX TOWN VALLEY COMMUNITIES THAT HAS BEEN ITS PRIMARY SERVICE AREA FOR OVER A CENTURY. MUCH OF THE RESEARCH REFERENCED AND USED IN THE CHNA HAS BEEN DONE OVER A TWO DECADE PERIOD OF TIME AND HAS BEEN A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN THE VALLEY COUNCIL OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS, GRIFFIN HOSPITAL AND THE YALE-GRIFFIN PREVENTION RESEARCH CENTER.		GRIFFIN HOSPITAL
PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5C: THE CHNA REPORT IS WIDELY AVAILABLE ON THE GRIFFIN HOSPITAL WEBSITE HTTP://WWW.GRIFFINHEALTH.ORG/ AND THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT'S WEBSITE HTTP://WWW.CT.GOV/DPH/CWP/. ALSO THE CHNA IS AVAILABLE AT THE FACILITY.		GRIFFIN HOSPITAL
PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7: GRIFFIN'S CHNA IDENTIFIED OUR COMMUNITY NEEDS AS AWARENESS OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, TRANSPORTATION, OBESITY, PRIMARY CARE ACCESS, COMMUNITY POPULATION BASED MEDICAL ISSUES, CLINICAL SERVICES, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, PRE-NATAL CARE AND REGIONAL COOPERATION ON HEALTH ISSUES. GRIFFIN PLANS TO ADDRESS PRIORITY AREAS WITH IMPLEMENTATION PLANS ON ALL BUT ONE OF THE SUGGESTED NEEDS. THERE WAS A PERCEPTION THAT PRE-NATAL CARE WAS LOW AND THAT AN INTERVENTION WAS NEEDED. RESEARCH, HOWEVER, REVEALED THAT PRENATAL CARE FOR MOTHERS-TO-BE IN THE VALLEY WAS SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER WHEN COMPARED TO THE STATE AND NEW HAVEN COUNTY AS REPORTED BY THE CONNECTICUT DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH. BASED ON THE ACTUAL DATA THERE IS NO ACTION REQUIRED RELATED TO PRE-NATAL CARE. THE INFORMATION WILL BE WIDELY SHARED WITH HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS AND OTHER COMMUNITY LEADERS TO ENSURE THAT THERE IS INCREASED KNOWLEDGE OF THE VALLEY DATA AS COMPARED TO NEW HAVEN COUNTY AND THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT.		GRIFFIN HOSPITAL
PART VI, LINE 2: GRIFFIN HAS A HISTORY OF COMMUNITY SERVICE AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY DATING BACK TO ITS FOUNDING 100 YEARS AGO, AND OF PROVIDING EDUCATIONAL, PREVENTION AND SCREENING PROGRAMS AND SERVICES. IN 1970, FUNDED BY A GRANT FROM THE KELLOGG FOUNDATION, GRIFFIN ESTABLISHED ONE OF THE FIRST HOSPITAL DEPARTMENTS OF COMMUNITY HEALTH IN THE COUNTRY TO FOCUS ON THE HEALTH AND SOCIAL NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY IT SERVES. OVER THE PAST FIFTEEN YEARS, GRIFFIN'S REACH HAS BEEN EXPANDING INTO THE COMMUNITY. IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING HEALTH INFORMATION AND SERVICES TO THE PUBLIC AT THE HOSPITAL AND OTHER SATELLITE LOCATIONS, GRIFFIN TAKES THESE ACTIVITIES INTO THE COMMUNITIES WHERE PATIENTS LIVE AND WORK. BY OFFERING A VARIETY OF SUPPORT GROUPS, TRAINING SESSIONS, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, AND OTHER COMMUNITY-BASED RESOUCES AND ACTIVITIES, AND COLLABORATING WITH OTHER NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND GOVERNMENT ENTITIES, GRIFFIN HAS EXTENDED ITS MISSION FAR BEYOND THE HOSPITAL'S WALLS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF PEOPLE OF ALL AGES. COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP RECOGNIZED THE NEED TO RESPOND TO THE CHANGING COMMUNITY DEMOGRAPHICS AND THE DIFFERENT SOCIOECONOMIC AND HEALTH NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONS OF THE MORE DIVERSE POPULATION. THREE MAJOR NEW STRUCTURES WERE CREATED. IN 1993, THE VALLEY COUNCIL OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE ORGANIZATION (VCHHSO) WAS FOUNDED. MORE THAN 55 ORGANIZATIONS THAT PROVIDE MOST OF THE HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES ARE MEMBERS. VCHHSO'S VISION IS A PROVIDER NETWORK THAT WORKS COLLABORATIVELY TO CREATE AN INTEGRATED HUMAN SERVICES DELIVERY SYSTEM THAT MEETS THE NEEDS OF ALL RESIDENTS. "HEALTHY VALLEY 2000", THE STATE'S FIRST HEALTHY COMMUNITY EFFORT, WAS LAUNCHED IN 1994. WITH FOUNDATION GRANT SUPPORT, THE NATIONAL CIVIC LEAGUE WAS ENGAGED TO GUIDE STAKEHOLDERS THROUGH THE PROCESS. THE VISION OF THE BROAD-BASED, VOLUNTEER INSPIRED AND MANAGED EFFORT WAS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE COMMUNITY AND ITS RESIDENTS BY MAKING THE COMMUNITY A BETTER PLACE IN WHICH TO LIVE, WORK, SHOP, RAISE A FAMILY AND ENJOY LIFE. BASED ON RESEARCH, INCLUDING USE OF THE NATIONAL CIVIC LEAGUE INDEX, A S.W.O.T ANALYSIS, AND BRAINSTORMING, 175 STAKEHOLDERS IDENTIFIED ARTS & RECREATION, COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT, ECONOMIC DEVELOPENT, EDUCATION AND HEALTH AS PRIORITIES. A TASK FORCE DEVELOPED A WORK PLAN FOR EACH OF THE PRIORITIES AND AN HONOR ROLE WAS DEVELOPED TO RECOGNIZE INITIATIVES UNDERTAKEN INDEPENDENTLY BY INDIVIDUALS OR ORGANIZATIONS RELATED TO THE IDENTIFIED PRIORITIES.THE BOARD ADOPTED STRATEGIC PLAN FOR THE 2010 - 2013 PERIODS, WHICH INCLUDED A PROVISION TO CONDUCT A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND ADOPT A STRATEGY TO MEET COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE ASSESSMENT. THE PROVISION INCLUDED OBTAINING INPUT FROM A BROADLY DIVERSE CROSS SECTION OF THE COMMUNITY THE HOSPITAL SERVES. IT ALSO INCLUDED THE POSTING OF THE ASSESSMENT ON THE CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY SECTION OF THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE.
