        <Explanation>Income TaxesEMHS, its hospitals, and certain other affiliates have been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be tax-exempt charitable organizations as described in Section 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code") and, accordingly, are exempt from federal income taxes on related income pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for these organizations.Tax-exempt charitable organizations could be required to record an obligation for income taxes as the result of a tax position they have historically taken on various tax exposure items including unrelated business income or tax status. Under guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), assets and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to not meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, based upon the technical merits of the position. Estimated interest and penalties, if applicable, related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of income tax expense. The System has evaluated its tax position taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns and concluded the impact to be not material.Certain of the System's affiliates are taxable entities. Deferred taxes related to these entities are based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets and liabilities for these entities are not material.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Part II, line 4 - Community Building ActivitiesThrough public health screenings, professional and community education, and charity care, EMMC, as a member of EMHS system, works hard to make a difference in our community. These community benefits reflect EMMC's nonprofit mission. Eastern Maine Medical Center demonstrated its ongoing commitment to improving the health status of Maines workforce by renewing its regional sponsorship of the Wellness Council of Maine. Largely as a result of the work of this group, our region was designated as the nation's first "Well Region" with many employers qualifying as "Well Workplaces" under the Wellness Councils of America criteria. Having earned, for the second time, the Wellness Councils of Americas Platinum Well Workplace Award (Welcoa's highest honor), EMMC is investing both inside its own walls and outside to promote healthy choices, healthy lifestyles, and lower healthcare costs. For FY2013, EMMC delivered a total community benefit of more than $107.8 million.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Using the data in the EMHS Community Health Needs Assessment, EMMC collaborates with other EMHS hospitals and with others in the community on solutions to some of most significant healthcare problems such as overcoming barriers accessing to care, healthcare provider shortages, and obesity. EMMC is reaching out to providers across the region to formulate strategies for better patient access to care, including improved scheduling, aggressive recruiting of physicians, and enhanced communication regarding care transitions. With the help of technology, such as tele-trauma, specialists at our hospital are able to assist with traumas and specialized clinical cases at other hospitals using high resolution, remote cameras and communication equipment. With a shortage of healthcare providers in rural areas of Maine, investments such as this are sharing specialty level medical and surgical resources with rural communities, maximizing our region's ability to respond to medical needs and, when appropriate, supporting patient care closer to home.</Explanation>

        <ReturnReference>Part VI - Needs Assessment</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>The EMHS Community Health Needs Assessment examines the health status of the residents of Bangor and Penobscot, counties and provides comprehensive research data and recommendations on a variety of critical target areas including community health education, access to primary care, care for chronic conditions, geriatric care, and mental health and substance abuse. As a follow up to the studies conducted in 2001 and 2007, EMHS contracted with the Center for Health Policy, Planning and Research (CHPPR) at the University of New England (led by Ron Deprez, PhD. MPH) to determine changes in health status and barriers to care since 2001. The 2007 Community Health Needs Assessment was funded again as a community service of EMHS Foundation, the philanthropic center of EMHS. EMHS participated in another Community Health Needs assessment in late 2010. Those results were made available in 2011, and in late June of 2011, EMMC, as a member of EMHS, hosted a community health needs assessment forum at the Spectacular Event Center in Bangor so community leaders and public health officials could discuss a collaborative effort to best address the needs of residents in Penobscot County. EMMC also had representatives at several other community forums since we serve as the leading tertiary referral center for the northern two-thirds of the state. In 2013, we continued the implementation of the strategies developed in that process.</Explanation>

The federal grant brought together a variety of care providers and stakeholders in the community and was the foundation of EMHS becoming a Pioneer Accountable Care Organization, one of 33 in the country. We are able to provide better coordinate care, educate consumers, encourage earlier access to medical care and better management of chronic disease with the goal of a healthier population and reduced use of emergency intervention to even more people in our community as a result of our continued efforts and success.6d Ongoing work in our primary care provider offices (all of which are patient centered medical homes) with regard to coaching on primary prevention of at risk populations and care management for secondary prevention in those with chronic disease. Integration of Mental Health/Substance Abuse services into primary care setting. Expanding use of care coordinators to our own EMMC employees and Medicare patietnt in accordance with demonstrated success of the Pioneer Accountable Care Organization.6e Ongoing efforts to recruit as well as fund the Family Practice Residency Program (about half those who complete this program choose to set up practice here in the region). Increase family practice provider options in the community, including opening a new office in Hampden, acquiring an established primary care practice in Bangor and recruiting additional primary care practitioners to our region.6f Continue to develop and grow the Way to Optimum Weight (WOW) Program for children with obesity related illness.

        <Explanation>1a EMMCs primary service area includes the contiguous towns in the Greater Bangor area. While EMMC has a tertiary mission that encompasses a larger geographic area, and we do collaborate with primary providers in more distant regions, the needs assessment identifies largely primary healthcare issues -- the purview of primary hospitals--so we have focused on our primary service area.1b Eastern Maine Medical Center and its related physician practices utilize extensive electronic medical records, including disease registries, which provide a vast amount of data relative to patients in care. The needs assessment provides a much broader picture of the community as a whole, including the health status of individuals not in care, as well as functional health status and social-demographics (such as employment, income and education levels). The local units of the states public health infrastructure (known as Healthy Maine Partnerships) are also integrated into the process so that their data relative to health, environmental and social measures are part of the community dissemination process.1c Eastern Maine Medical Center engaged multiple health resource leaders in the community forum invitation list (as described in Section 1g). Additional resources and leaders needed were identified in the breakout sessions (see question for breakout participants, Section 1g EMMC is participating in the CMS Pioneer ACO through parent company EMHS Beacon Health. The primary care practice model is being rolled out to Medicare and commercial patients. Through integrated electronic medical records and embedded nurse care coordinators EMMC is able to provide seamless and personalized care to our high risk patients and provide more education and support to those with chronic diseases. The care model is in place throughout all the EMMC primary care practices. In the EMMC primary service area, key collaborators going forward will include: EMMC, St. Joseph Healthcare, Community Health and Counseling Services, Acadia Hospital and Eastern Area Agency on Aging1d-1e-1f EMHS, the parent company of Eastern Maine Medical Center, routinely conducts a community health needs assessment (Hereafter needs assessment) across the service area of all of its member hospitals. The most recent assessment, published in 2011, was conducted under a contract with the University of New England Center for Health Planning, Policy and Research (CHPPR) and the University of Southern Maines Muskie School for Public Health. Using a methodology developed by CHPPR over decades of work, the assessment integrates primary data from a telephone survey to heads of households with secondary data retrieved from state databases (ED usage, Mortality, Cancer Registry, etc.). That data is reviewed in the context of multiple health related domains to develop a composite view of health status, behavioral risks, and barriers to access and care. Results are compared to national and state benchmarks to produce priorities and recommendations as prepared by the consultants.1g See question #31h On a statewide basis, the research consultants developed an advisory committee that met two times during the assessment research and drafting of the publication. These individuals represented a broad spectrum of backgrounds, and they are named: Carol Bell, Healthy Maine Partnership Director; Kelly Bentley, Healthy Maine Partnership Director; Gail Dana-Sacco, Wabanaki Center (serving tribal populations); Patricia Hart, Maine Development Foundation; Barbara Leonard, MPH, Maine Health Access Foundation (philanthropic foundation focused on access to care in Maine); Becca Matusovich, Maine Center for Disease Control; Lisa Miller, Bingham Foundation (philanthropic foundation); Dora Ann Mills, MD, Maine Center for Disease Control; Elizabeth Mitchell, Maine Health Management Coalition (representing the states major employers, insurers and providers); Trish Riley, Governors Office of Health Policy and Finance (GOHPF); Brian Rines, Advisory Committee for Health System Development (overseen by GOHPF); Rachel Talbot-Ross, Maine Chapter, NAACP; Ted Trainer, Public Health Coordinating Council Shawn Yardley, City of Bangor, Department of Health and Welfare.

The new joint initiatory powers model gives EMHS authority not only to approve or disapprove important subsidiary action, but also to actually initiate action on behalf of the subsidiaries with respect to the following matters: I. amendments to the corporations Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws;II. changes in legal form of organization of the Corporation;III. election of the Directors/Trustees of the Corporation;IV. action concerning the Corporations operating budget and capital expenditures;V. the Corporations acquisition of assets or assumption of liabilities of an unaffiliated third party;VI. transfer of 5% or more of the assets of the Corporation;VII. financing transactions concerning the Corporation; VIII. merger, consolidation, sale, lease, mortgage, pledge or other disposition of all or substantially all assets of the Corporation; IX. add or revise a health care service of the Corporation;X. discontinue or close a health care service of the Corporation;XI. action concerning the Corporations role in the EMHS Strategic Plan;XII. action concerning the Corporations participation in key strategic affiliations with third parties not affiliated with EMHS; andXIII. dissolution of the Corporation</Explanation>
