METHODIST EXTENDED CARE HOSPITAL, INC. PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7: WHILE THE ORGANIZATION HAS STRATEGIC PLANS TO ADDRESS THE MAJORITY OF HEALTH NEEDS IN THE COMMUNITY EITHER ON A LARGER SCALE OR SMALLER SCALE THROUGH PILOTS OR TESTS OF CHANGE, THERE ARE A FEW PRIORITY NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN OUR ASSESSMENT THAT THE ORGANIZATION DOES NOT PLAN TO TACKLE. THE HIGH PRIORITY NEEDS ARE ALL PRE-DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH: POVERTY, UNEMPLOYMENT, EDUCATION AND CRIME. THE ORGANIZATION WILL FOCUS ON THE REST OF THE COMMUNITY'S HEALTH NEEDS AND WILL SUPPORT GROUPS THAT ARE DESIGNED AND RESOURCED TO POSITIVELY IMPACT THESE FOUR AREAS OF NEED SUCH AS MEMPHIS FAST FORWARD. METHODIST EXTENDED CARE HOSPITAL, INC. PART V, SECTION B, LINE 20D: THE ORGANIZATION IS IN PROCESS OF ADOPTING PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN PROP. REG. 1.501(R)-5 TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNTS GENERALLY BILLED FOR THE FACILITY. UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THOSE REGULATIONS ARE FINALIZED, THE ORGANIZATION IS CONFIDENT THAT ITS DISCOUNTS UNDER ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY ARE SUBSTANTIALLY LARGE ENOUGH TO BE IN COMPLIANCE OF SEC. 501(R)(5) AND THE LIMITS SET ON CHARGES THEREUNDER. PART I, LINE 6A: THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT OF METHODIST EXTENDED CARE HOSPITAL, INC. ("MECH") IS PREPARED PRIMARILY BY THE COMMUNICATIONS AND MARKETING DEPARTMENT, WITH SUPPORT FROM THE ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE DEPARTMENTS, OF METHODIST LE BONHEUR HEALTHCARE, THE CORPORATE PARENT ENTITY OF THE HOSPITAL. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT OF MECH CAN BE FOUND ON THE COMPANY'S WEBSITE AT WWW.METHODISTHEALTH.ORG UNDER THE "ABOUT US" SECTION. PART I, LINE 7: WORKSHEET 2 OF THE 2013 SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS WAS USED TO COMPUTE A COST-TO-CHARGES RATIO THAT WAS USED TO CALCULATE CHARITY CARE AND UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID AT COST. PART I, LN 7 COL(F): THE AMOUNT ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25 CONTAINS A BAD DEBT EXPENSE OF $ 194,443 THAT HAS BEEN REMOVED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE ON SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F). PART I, LINE 7: METHODIST EXTENDED CARE HOSPITAL, INC. FOCUSES SPECIFICALLY ON LONG-TERM REHABILITATION, AND IS A VALUABLE COMPONENT OF THE METHODIST LE BONHEUR HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS PRESENTED ON PART I, LINE 7 ARE REQUIRED TO BE REPORTED BASED ON THIS ORGANIZATION ONLY. BECAUSE OF THE SPECIALIZED AND FOCUSED NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION, PART I, LINE 7 IS NOT REFLECTIVE OF THE EXCEPTIONAL LEVEL OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROVIDED BY OTHER MEMBERS OF THE METHODIST LE BOHNEUR FAMILY. WE ENCOURAGE READERS TO SEE SCHEDULE H OF OUR AFFILIATES FOR MORE DETAILS. PART III, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT INCLUDE A FOOTNOTE ON BAD DEBTS, ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, OR ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTABLE ACCOUNTS. WORKSHEET 2 OF THE 2013 SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS WAS USED TO COMPUTE A COST-TO-CHARGES RATIO THAT WAS USED TO CALCULATE BAD DEBT AT COST.WHEN A PORTION OF PATIENT CHARGES BECOME PATIENT RESPONSIBILITY, THE AMOUNT IS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBTS AND THEN SENT TO OUR COLLECTION GROUP. ANY PAYMENTS RECOUPED BY OUR COLLECTIONS GROUP ARE THEN APPLIED AGAINST THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE. IT IS OUR ESTIMATION BASED ON HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE THAT ABOUT 50% OF THE REMAINING PORTION OF BAD DEBTS (AFTER RECOVERIES) COULD BE APPLICABLE TO PATIENTS WHO, ON ADDITIONAL REVIEW AND PROVIDING ALL RELEVANT INFORMATION, WOULD QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. PART III, LINE 8: AMOUNTS PRESENTED ON PART III, LINES 5 AND 6 ARE DERIVED FROM THE ORGANIZATION'S MEDICARE COST REPORT. PART III, LINE 9B: METHODIST LE BONHEUR HEALTHCARE'S COLLECTION PROCESS BEGINS WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S REVENUE CYCLE TEAM MAKING INITIAL COLLECTION EFFORTS TO RECOUP ALL MONIES DUE FROM THE PATIENTS' INSURANCE PROVIDERS. WHEN THE AMOUNT DUE IS SOLELY THE PATIENT'S PORTION, THE ACCOUNT IS TRANSFERRED TO ANOTHER TEAM THAT SPECIALIZES IN PATIENT PORTION ACCOUNTS (EARLY-OUT PROGRAM). IT IS THIS PROGRAM THAT INITIALLY DETERMINES IF A PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR CHARITY CARE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S POLICY. IF QUALIFICATION IS UNCLEAR, THIS PROGRAM ATTENDS TO THE ACCOUNT FOR A PREDETERMINED TIME THROUGH LETTERS AND PHONE CALLS. THE DURATION IS DEPENDENT ON VARIOUS SCENARIOS THAT AFFECT ITS LENGTH, SUCH AS PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS, DISPUTES, ETC. AFTER THE EARLY-OUT TIME PERIOD HAS EXPIRED, THE ACCOUNT IS THEN SENT TO OUR COLLECTIONS GROUP. AN ACCOUNT PLACED WITH OUR COLLECTION GROUP EXPERIENCES A CONTINUED AND THOROUGH COLLECTION PHASE. ONCE ALL COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED AND IT IS DETERMINED THAT THE REMAINING BALANCE WILL NOT BE COLLECTED, THE ACCOUNT IS REEVALUATED ON THE CRITERIA USED TO DETERMINE FINANCIAL AID ELIGIBILITY. PART VI, LINE 2: THE ORGANIZATION COMPLETED THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESMENT (CHNA)IN 2013.METHODIST HEALTHCARE - EXTENDED HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO UNDERTAKING A COMMUNITY-WIDE PROCESS TO DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE CHNA REPRESENTING THE NEEDS IN OUR SERVICE AREA. SECONDARY DATA FROM DEMOGRAPHICS AND SOCIOECONOMIC SOURCES, VITAL STATISTICS, DISEASE PREVALENCE AND HEALTH INDICATORS AND STATISTICS WERE COLLECTED. ADDITIONALLY, MLH COMPLETED FOUR PRIMARY RESEARCH STUDIES TO DETERMINE THE HEALTH NEEDS OF ITS SERVICE AREA POPULATION. THE NATIONAL RESEARCH CORPORATION (NRC) CONSUMER HEALTH REPORT WAS COMPLETED IN 2011 PROVIDING VALUABLE INFORMATION ABOUT THE MIDDLE AND UPPER INCOME POPULATIONS IN THE MLH SERVICE AREA. THE NRC CONSUMER HEALTH REPORT WAS AN EMAILED SURVEY TO A RANDOM SAMPLE OF GREATER MEMPHIS AREA RESIDENTS. BECAUSE THE SURVEY WAS EMAIL-BASED, WE BELIEVED THAT THE SURVEY MAY HAVE EXCLUDED THE NEEDS OF LOW-INCOME GROUPS WITH LESS ACCESS TO COMPUTERS AND INTERNET. TO AUGMENT THE NRC CONSUMER HEALTH REPORT FINDINGS, METHODIST CONDUCTED A MAIL-BASED SURVEY TO INDIVIDUALS MAKING LESS THAN $40,000 PER YEAR. THE MAILED SURVEY WAS SENT TO A RANDOM SAMPLE OF LOW-INCOME CONSUMERS LIVING IN THE GREATER MEMPHIS AREA. BECAUSE MEMPHIS IS HOME TO A RELATIVELY LARGE HOMELESS AND HOUSING-INSECURE POPULATION, SOUP KITCHEN INTERVIEWS WERE COMPLETED TO CAPTURE THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THIS HIGH-RISK POPULATION. FINALLY, FOR ADDITIONAL INPUT FROM LOCAL EMPLOYERS, THE MLH CEO CONDUCTED ONE-ON-ONE INTERVIEWS WITH COMMUNITY LEADERS TO ASSESS THEIR NEEDS. WE BELIEVE THE COMBINATION OF SURVEY METHODOLOGIES (MAIL, INTERNET AND PERSONAL INTERVIEWS) WAS THE BEST WAY TO ACCURATELY CAPTURE THE HEALTH NEEDS OF OUR ENTIRE, DIVERSE AND SOCIALLY/MEDICALLY COMPLEX COMMUNITY. TOGETHER THE SURVEYS PROVIDE TOOLS TO STRENGTHEN THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY BY ASSISTING IN THE FOLLOWING:A. MEASUREMENT AND EVALUATION OF HEALTH STATUS AND HEALTHCARE UTILIZATION WITHIN THE COMMUNITYB.

MANAGEMENT PRIORITIZED STRATEGY BASED UPON NEEDS IDENTIFIED AND RESOURCES AVAILABLE. IDENTIFIED PRIORITIES WERE PRESENTED TO THE FAITH AND HEALTH AND QUALITY SUB-COMMITTEES OF THE MLH BOARD OF DIRECTORS. PART VI, LINE 3: METHODIST EXTENDED CARE HOSPITAL, INC. UTILIZES THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES (FPG) TO DETERMINE THE LEVEL OF DISCOUNT UNINSURED PATIENTS MAY RECEIVE. THE LEVEL BY WHICH ASSISTANCE IS DETERMINED IS THROUGH THE SCALE SET BY THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES (DHHS), WHICH INCLUDES FACTORS SUCH AS RESIDENTS PER HOUSEHOLD AND INCOME. MECH COMMUNICATES AND PROVIDES ASSISTANCE CONCERNING ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN SEVERAL WAYS. CHARITY CARE POLICIES ARE POSTED AND UPDATED AS PART OF THE ORGANIZATION'S SYSTEM POLICIES AND ARE AVAILABLE TO ALL STAFF THROUGH THE COMPANY INTRANET CONNECTIONS.

ALL STAFF WITH PATIENT CONTACT, INCLUDING ADMISSION AND BILLING CLERKS, NURSES AND THE MEDICAL STAFF, SOCIAL WORKERS, CHAPLAINS, AND PATIENT ADVOCATES, ARE KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THE CHARITY CARE POLICY AND ASSIST PATIENTS WHEN NECESSARY.
