THE HOSPITAL FACILITIES INCLUDED IN FACILITY REPORTING GROUP A ARE LISTED IN SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION A. BANNER GOLDFIELD MEDICAL CENTER IS LISTED SEPARATELY BECAUSE IT WAS ACQUIRED BY BANNER HEALTH IN 2013 AND WAS NOT REQUIRED TO CONDUCT A CHNA FOR 2013.

THE FACILITY LEADERSHIP TEAMS, IN COLLABORATION WITH MEMBERS OF BANNERHEALTH'S COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) STEERING COMMITTEE, CREATED A COMMUNITY ADVISORY COUNCIL (CAC) OF COMMUNITY LEADERS THAT REPRESENTED THE UNDERSERVED, UNINSURED AND MINORITY POPULATIONS. CAC PARTICIPANTS WERE IDENTIFIED BASED ON THEIR ROLE IN THE PUBLIC HEALTH REALM OF THE HOSPITAL'S SURROUNDING COMMUNITY. EMPHASIS WAS PLACED ON IDENTIFYING POPULATIONS WITHIN THE SERVICE AREA THAT ARE CONSIDERED MINORITY AND/OR UNDERSERVED.
INDIVIDUALS THAT REPRESENTED THESE POPULATIONS, INCLUDING THEUNINSURED, UNDERSERVED AND MINORITY POPULATIONS, WERE INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN A FOCUS GROUP TO REVIEW AND VALIDATE THE QUANTITATIVE DATA, PROVIDE ADDITIONAL HEALTH CONCERNS AND FEEDBACK AS TO THE UNDERLYING ISSUES AND POTENTIAL STRATEGIES FOR ADDRESSING SAID CONCERNS. ADDITIONAL DIALOGUE OPPORTUNITIES (EMAIL, TELEPHONE CONVERSATIONS AND IN-PERSON MEETINGS WERE PROVIDED FOR THOSE PERSONS WHO DESIRED TO PARTICIPATE BUT WERE UNABLE TO PERSONALLY ATTEND A FOCUS GROUP SESSION. THOSE DISCUSSIONS INCLUDED FURTHER REVIEW OF THE DATA, EXISTING RESOURCES AND STRATEGIES FOR ADDRESSING THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTH CONCERNS. GIVEN THE OVERLAP IN PRIMARY SERVICE AREAS IN SOME BANNER SERVICE AREAS, FOCUS GROUPS WERE COMBINED. THE FOCUS GROUP PROVIDED INPUT AND INSIGHTS AND EACH CAC PARTICIPANT WAS VESTED IN THE OVERALL HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AND BROUGHT FORTH UNIQUE PERSPECTIVES WITH REGARDS TO THE POPULATION'S HEALTH NEEDS. THE CAC PROVIDED BANNER HEALTH WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO GATHER VALUABLE INPUT DIRECTLY FROM THE COMMUNITY.
THERE WAS ADDITIONAL DIALOGUE (VIA EMAIL, TELEPHONE CONVERSATIONS ANDIN-PERSON MEETINGS WITH LEADERS FROM THE RESPECTIVE COUNTY AND STATE PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS (MARICOPA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH, NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES , PLATTE COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENT ETC.)

SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7(1) BANNER GOOD SAMARITAN MEDICAL CENTER Significant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the steering committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership and the Maricopa County Department of Public Health, worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Community Infrastructure: The CAC indicated that a key need to help support and promote better nutrition and physical inactivity within the community, particularly the lower income neighborhoods include improving the environment so people feel safe and want to be active within their neighborhoods and having ready and affordable access to nutritional foods. Banner Health, and Banner Good Sam, will continue to partner with the state and county, as well as other nonprofit organizations within the community to better understand the issues and opportunities for collaboration around improving the environment and access to nutritional foods. However, at this time, we do not feel we are in a position to deploy specific strategies around these broader socio-environmental issues, though we recognize their importance and impact on the overall health of the community. Women and Infant Services: While the data indicates positive trending in several areas related to women and infant services, as noted above, the Community Advisory Council (CAC) did raise a few concerns that they felt represented a health concern within the community, specifically Well-Child Exams and Immunizations. In conjunction with labor & delivery services, Banner Good Sam offers a comprehensive list of free and low cost childbirth and baby care classes for moms, teen moms, dads and even siblings. A breast-feeding support group is also available on campus. Additionally, there are other nonprofit organizations within the community that focus on prevention of teenage pregnancy and it is outside Banner Health's scope and expertise. The implementation of Patient Centered Medical Homes, as well as the other strategies focused on improving access to care should also help assist with increasing parent's participation in well-child exams and immunizations, for all ages. Banner Health is very progressive in requiring that their employees receive the annual flu vaccine to ensure the safety of our patients, as well as our employees and their families. (2) BANNER DESERT MEDICAL CENTER Significant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the steering committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership and the Maricopa County Department of Public Health, worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health need that was not prioritized, at this time, is: Free and Low-Cost Dental Services: There are actually many great resources within the community that provide these services to the uninsured and underinsured populations. The Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH) has developed a very robust website, FindHelpPhx.org, that provides this resource information to the public. Banner Health will partner with MCDPH to help promote the Find Help Phoenix website to our patients and surrounding community. Women and Infant Services: While the data indicates positive trending in several areas related to women and infant services, as noted above, the CAC did raise a few concerns that they felt represented a health concern within the community, specifically pregnancy complications from obesity, well-child exams and immunizations. The implementation of Patient Centered Medical Homes, as well as the other strategies focused on improving access to care should also help assist with increasing parent's participation in well-child exams and immunizations, for all ages. Banner Health is very progressive in requiring that their employees receive the annual flu vaccine to ensure the safety of our patients, as well as our employees and their families. Obesity during pregnancy will also hopefully be impacted positively by the implementation of Patient Centered Medical Home, as well as the strategies focused on addressing obesity across the community. Additionally, the comprehensive lists of free and low cost childbirth education and parenting classes will continue to provide education and awareness around healthy behaviors during pregnancy.
(3) BANNER BOSWELL MEDICAL CENTERSignificant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the steering committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership and the Maricopa County Department of Public Health, worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Public Transportation: There are several organizations within the community and government that are looking into the limited public transportation issues in the West Valley. While we recognize this can be a barrier to accessing care and we will support efforts to improve the situation as best we can, it is not within our area of expertise and believe our resources would be better directed at the access issues that we can more directly influence. Free and Low-Cost Dental and Vision Services: There are actually many great resources within the community that provide these services to the uninsured and underinsured populations. The Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH) has developed a very robust website, FindHelpPhx.org, which provides this resource information to the public. Banner Health with partner with MCDPH to help promote the Find Help Phoenix website to our patients and surrounding community. Women and Infant Services: While the data indicates positive trending in several areas related to women and infant services, as noted above, the Community Advisory Council did raise a few issues that they felt represented a health concern within the community, specifically Teen Pregnancy, Well-Child Exams and Immunizations, Lack of Developmental Delay Providers and Obesity in Young Children. While Banner Boswell does not offer maternity or pediatric services, the facility partners closely with Banner Del E. Webb Medical Center and Banner Thunderbird Medical Center in providing these services. Both facilities offer comprehensive lists of free and low cost child birth education and parenting classes. Banner Del E. Webb also hosts regularly scheduled teen pregnancy classes conducted by Teen Outreach Pregnancy Services. Additionally, there are other nonprofit organizations within the community that focus on prevention of teenage pregnancy and it is outside Banner Health's scope and expertise. The strategies around increasing access to care are aimed at increasing preventive and maintenance care; therefore, they should also have a positive impact on well-child exams and immunizations. We will also continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status around these issues through our community partnerships with agencies such as Maricopa County Department of Public Health. Early detection of developmental delays is not an area Banner Health views as a clinical strength for the organization and as such feel resources would be better dedicated to areas, such as Behavioral Health and Chronic Disease where Banner Health's infrastructure and clinical expertise can readily support strategies for addressing the concerns. Obesity in Young Children was specifically identified as a concern for the pediatric population. Our strategies around increasing access to education and resources around nutrition and physical activity are intended to help all ages within the community.

In conjunction with labor & delivery services, Banner Thunderbird offers a comprehensive list of free and low cost child birth and baby care classes for moms, teen moms, dads and even siblings. A breast-feeding support group is also available on campus. Banner Thunderbird also serves as a "Safe Haven" alternative for babies who might otherwise be abandoned if parents feel unequipped to care for them. The strategies around increasing access to care are aimed at increasing preventive and maintenance care; therefore, they should also have a positive impact on well-child exams and immunizations. We will also continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status around these issues through our community partnerships with agencies such as Maricopa County Department of Public Health.

(8) NORTH COLORADO MEDICAL CENTERSignificant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the steering committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Specialty Providers: While not specifically called out as a strategy under Access to Care, Banner Health is constantly evaluating the provider needs within the communities it serves and strives to meet those needs as best as possible. Additionally, the conversation with the CAC reflected the need for focused efforts on increasing awareness of the available services within the community, which has been integrated into the strategies across the priority health concerns. Women and Infant Services: The data indicates that there are opportunities for improvement within the community related to certain aspects of Women and Infant Services. While we recognize this is a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not prioritized as one of the greatest areas of need within the community. Additionally, we recognize that there are other organizations in the community that are focusing on this issue. As we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy for all of the areas of significant health needs, we feel resources would be better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above. While not focused on prevention, NCMC will continue to offer childbirth education classes and promoting healthy lifestyle choices.

The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Women and Infant Services: The data indicates there are opportunities for improvement within the community related to certain aspects of Women and Infant Services, particularly related to low birth weight and teen pregnancy. While we recognize this is a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not prioritized as one of the greatest areas of need within the community. As we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy for all of the areas of significant health needs, we feel resources would be better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above. While not focused on prevention, Platte County Memorial will also continue to offer childbirth education classes. Home Care and Nursing Homes Services: There are other organizations in the community who currently offer and specialize in these services. Therefore, Platte County Memorial will continue to partner with these organizations to ensure smooth transitions, but will not look to implement new strategies at this time. Medication Assistance and Availability: Platte County Memorial will continue to partner with the Salvation Army and other community resources to help align patients to medication assistance programs. The facility will also continue to offer 24-hour medication packs through the ED to ensure the community is able to access needed medications outside of pharmacy hours. Additionally, Banner Health will continue to explore opportunities to improve medication access for their patients; however, we do not have the resources to implement a defined strategy at this time.

The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Women and Infant Services: The data indicates there are still opportunities for improvement within the community related to Women and Infant Services. While we recognize this is a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not identified by the CAC as one of the greatest areas of need within the community. As we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy for all of the areas of significant health needs, we feel resources would be better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above. Fairbanks will continue to offer new parent classes, including an expectant parent tour, childbirth education class, sibling tour and new parents clinic, as well as "Non-Emergency Support about Newborns."
(12) MCKEE MEDICAL CENTERSignificant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the steering committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Specialty Providers: While not specifically called out as a strategy under Access to Care, Banner Health is constantly evaluating the provider needs within the communities it serves and strives to meet those needs as best as possible. Additionally, the conversation with the CAC reflected the need for focused efforts on increasing awareness of the available services within the community, which has been integrated into the strategies across the priority health concerns. Women and Infant Services: The data indicates that there are opportunities for improvement within the community related to certain aspects of Women and Infant Services. While we recognize this is a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not prioritized as one of the greatest areas of need within the community. Additionally, we recognize that there are other organizations in the community that are focusing on this issue. As we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy for all of the areas of significant health needs, we feel resources would be better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above. While not focused on prevention, McKee will continue to offer childbirth education classes and promote healthy lifestyle choices.
(13) BANNER CHURCHILL COMMUNITY HOSPITALSignificant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the steering committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership, worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Women and Infant Services: The data indicates there are opportunities for improvement within the community related to certain aspects of Women and Infant Services, particularly related to preterm births and teen pregnancy. While we recognize this is a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not identified by the CAC as one of the greatest areas of need within the community. As we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy for all of the areas of significant health needs, we feel resources would be better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above. Banner Churchill will also continue to offer childbirth education classes. As for the concern the CAC raised around pregnant women and new moms needing behavioral health services to better support them, it is our hope that through the implementation of a depression screening tool within the Banner Medical Group clinics and increased educational offerings and resource identification through the Mental Health and Substance Abuse website, that we will also be able to positively impact this issue. Provider Shortage: While not specifically called out as a strategy under Access to Care, Banner Health is constantly evaluating the provider needs within the communities it serves and strives to meet those needs as best as possible, as well as exploring innovative solutions, as noted above. Additionally, the conversation with the CAC reflected the need for focused efforts on increasing awareness of the available services within the community, which has been integrated into the strategies across the priority health concerns, as there are some great resources that currently exist within the community. Also as previously noted, Banner Churchill is exploring creative ways to help meet the needs and increase provider recruitment and retention within the community.
(14) STERLING REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTERSignificant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the steering committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Dental Care: Sterling Regional recognizes this is an area of opportunity within the community and that when dental care is not received on a routine basis, it can lead to other health issues. However, we feel this is outside the scope of Banner Health's expertise and that given limited resources, we are not currently able to address this need. Parenting Skills: While identified as a significant concern within the community and one that has implications to the overall health of the community, there are other agencies and organizations within the community who are currently focused on providing the needed education and support around this issue. We believe this is indeed an issue that is better aligned to our community partners; however, we will continue to look for opportunities to increase awareness of these valuable programs and resources. Provider Access: While not specifically called out as a strategy under Access to Care, Banner Health is constantly evaluating the provider needs within the communities it serves and strives to meet those needs as best as possible. Additionally, the conversation with the CAC reflected the need for focused efforts on increasing awareness of the available services within the community, which has been integrated into the strategies across the priority health concerns, as there are some great resources that currently exist within the community. Women and Infant Services: The data indicates there are opportunities for improvement within the community related to certain aspects of Women and Infant Services, particularly related to prenatal care and teen pregnancy. While we recognize this is a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not prioritized as one of the greatest areas of need within the community.

While not focused on prevention, Sterling Regional will continue to offer childbirth education classes.
(15) BANNER BEHAVIORAL HEALTH HOSPITALSignificant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the Steering Committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership and the Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH), worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Homeless Population: There are actually many great resources within the community that currently provide services and support to the homeless populations. MCDPH has developed a very robust website, FindHelpPhx.org, which provides ready access to many of these resources. Banner Health will partner with MCDPH to help promote the FindHelpPhx.org website to our patients and surrounding community to hopefully increase the awareness of these services. Public Transportation: There are also several organizations within the community and government that are looking into the limited public transportation issues in the West Valley. While we recognize this can be a barrier to accessing care and we will support efforts to improve the situation as best we can, it is not within our area of expertise and we believe our resources would be better directed at the access issues that we can more directly influence.
(16) PAGE HOSPITAL - CRITICAL ACCESSSignificant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA. Therefore, the steering committee, in concert with Banner Health leadership worked diligently to ensure the strategies and tactics we selected would be impactful, foundational for future efforts and in alignment with our strengths, mission, vision and strategic plan. The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Women and Infant Services: The data indicates there are still opportunities for continued improvement within women and infant services, and as noted above, the CAC did also indicate that they feel teen pregnancy represents a health concern within the community. While not focused on prevention, Page Hospital does offer childbirth classes. We recognize this is a significant health concern within the communiy, but simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy around pregnancy prevention, at this time and feel we are better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above.
(17) OGALLALA COMMUNITY HOSPITAL-CRITICAL ACCESSSignificant Health Needs Not Prioritized We recognize that we do not have the resources nor in some cases the expertise to pursue all of the significant health needs identified through the CHNA.

While we recognize this is still a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not identified by the CAC as one of the greatest areas of need within the community. As we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy for all of the areas of significant health needs, we feel resources would be better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above. Ogallala Community Hospital will also continue to offer childbirth education classes.

The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Dental Care: Washakie Medical Center recognizes this is an area of opportunity within the community and that when dental care is not received on a routine basis, it can lead to other health issues. However, we feel this is outside the scope of Banner Health's expertise and that given limited resources, we are not currently able to address this need. Given that the council indicated they felt this was more of an issue around lack of awareness of importance and resources, we will continue to help support promotion of the importance of regular dental care. Women and Infant Services: The data indicates there are opportunities for improvement within the community related to certain aspects of Women and Infant Services, particularly related to infant mortality, early prenatal care and teen pregnancy. While we recognize this is a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not prioritized as one of the greatest areas of need within the community. As we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy for all of the areas of significant health needs, we feel resources would be better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above.

In conjunction with labor & delivery services, Banner Ironwood offers a comprehensive list of free and low cost childbirth and baby care classes for teen moms, as well as moms of all ages, dads and even siblings. While we recognize this is a significant health concern within the community, we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy around pregnancy prevention, at this time and feel we are better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above.

The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Women and Infant Services: The data indicates there are still opportunities for improvement within the community related to certain aspects of Women and Infant Services, though California compares well to the other states and has shown marked improvement in areas such as teen pregnancy. While we recognize this is still a health concern within the community and will continue to look for opportunities to help improve the health status for this population, it was not identified by the CAC as one of the greatest areas of need within the community. As we simply do not have the resources to develop a strategy for all of the areas of significant health needs, we feel resources would be better aligned to influence the other significant health concerns identified above. Banner Lassen will continue to offer childbirth education classes. The CAC did identify a concern that for women who are unaware they are pregnant, 75 percent reported having consumed alcohol after conception. It is our hope that through increased educational offerings via the Mental Health and Substance Abuse website that we will also be able to positively impact this issue.

However, we feel this is outside the scope of Banner Health's expertise and that given limited resources, we are not currently able to address this need.

The significant health needs that were not prioritized, at this time, are: Free and Low-Cost Dental Services: There are actually many resources within the community that provide these services to the uninsured and underinsured populations. The Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH) has developed a very robust website, FindHelpPhx.org that provides this resource information to the public. Banner Health will partner with MCDPH to help promote the Find Help Phoenix website to our patients and surrounding community. Women and Infant Services: While the data indicates positive trending in several areas related to women and infant services, as noted above, the Community Advisory Council did raise a few concerns that they felt represented a health concern within the community, specifically Well-Child Exams and Immunizations. The implementation of Patient Centered Medical Homes, as well as the other strategies focused on improving access to care should also help assist with increasing parent's participation in well-child exams and immunizations, for all ages. Banner is very progressive in requiring that employees receive the annual flu vaccine to ensure the safety of our patients, as well as our employees and their families.

SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 3CBANNER HEALTH (BANNER/BH) USES FPG. DEDICATED TO PROVIDING QUALITY HEALTHCARE TO ALL PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF AGE, SEX, RACE, RELIGION, DISABILITY, VETERAN STATUS, NATIONAL ORIGIN AND/OR ABILITY TO PAY, DETERMINATIONS ARE MADE BASED UPON BANNER'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. BH'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM IS INTENDED TO ADDRESS THE DUAL INTERESTS OF PROVIDING ACCESS TO CARE TO THOSE WITHOUT THE ABILITY TO PAY (ECONOMIC INDIGENCE) AND TO OFFER A DISCOUNT FROM BILLED CHARGES FOR THOSE WHO ARE ABLE TO PAY A PORTION OF THE COSTS OF THEIR CARE (MEDICAL INDIGENCE). THIS POLICY ESTABLISHES TWO FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS: THE BASIC FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AND THE ENHANCED ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. UNDER THE BASIC FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, UNINSURED PERSONS HAVING ANNUAL HOUSEHOLD INCOMES OF $125,000 OR LESS WILL QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN THE FORM OF DISCOUNTED PRICING COMPARABLE TO THAT AVAILABLE TO COMMERCIAL INSURANCE PAYORS WITHOUT HAVING TO APPLY FOR MEDICAID ASSISTANCE. UNDER THE ENHANCED FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, UNINSURED PERSONS HAVING HOUSEHOLD INCOMES AT OR BELOW 500% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE WILL QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN THE FORM OF SUBSTANTIAL DISCOUNTS OR FREE CARE, SUBJECT TO APPLICATION FOR MEDICAID ASSISTANCE. BH MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO COMPLETE A FINANCIAL EVALUATION AT THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE POINT IN THE REGISTRATION/COLLECTION PROCESS FOR ALL PATIENTS INDICATING AN INABILITY TO MEET THEIR FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS. BANNER WILL PROVIDE A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM APPLICATION AFTER ALL OTHER OPTIONS FOR REIMBURSEMENT HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED. SEE PART VI, LINE 3 FOR INFORMATION ON HOW PATIENTS ARE MADE AWARE OF BH'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 6A BANNER HEALTH PREPARES AN ANNUAL SYSTEM REPORT OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITIES AS WELL AS AN ELECTRONIC BANNER HEALTH COMMUNITY UPDATE WHICH INCLUDES A COMMUNITY MESSAGE AND HIGHLIGHTS COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP AND SUPPORT. THIS E-PUBLICATION CAN BE LOCATED AT: HTTP://WWW.BANNERHEALTH.COM/ABOUT+US/COMMUNITY+UPDATE/COMMUNITY +UPDATE+HOME.HTM
SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 71) FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT COST, MEDICAID AND OTHER MEANSTESTED GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS USING THE COST-TO-CHARGE METHODOLOGY DETERMINED BY THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM, THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES OR RELATIVE VALUE UNITS IS APPLIED TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS TO CALCULATE THE ESTIMATED COST OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE COST ACCOUNT SYSTEM ADDRESS ALL PATIENT SEGMENTS AT THE ACUTE CARE FACILITIES. THE COST ACCOUNTING APPLICATION IS NOT IMPLEMENTED AT THE HEALTH CENTERS, PHYSICIAN PRACTICES, HOME CARE, SURGICAL CENTERS, OR OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH. 2) COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT BANNER USES THE CBISA, COMMUNITY BENEFIT INVENTORY TOOL TO COORDINATE AND ESTIMATE THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES. 3) HEALTH PROFESSIONS EDUCATION, SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES, AND RESEARCH ACTUAL COST LESS REIMBURSEMENTS AS REPORTED IN THE GENERAL LEDGER ARE USED TO VALUE THESE ACTIVITIES WHICH OPERATED AT A LOSS PROVIDE INVALUABLE SERVICES TO BH COMMUNITIES. 4) CASH AND IN-KIND CONTRIBUTIONS ACTUAL OR FAIR MARKET VALUE, IS USED TO VALUE THESE CONTRIBUTIONS OR ACTIVITIES. SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7G Subsidized health services reported in Section 7G includes among other things Alzheimer's memory disorder and residential treatment programs, poison and drug information services, palliative care clinics, trauma care, burn clinics, prescription assistance programs, behavioral health care, funded follow-up and continuing care for indigents, senior adult day care, community based prenatal program for under/uninsured mothers, school-based clinic activities, women's and children's services, free/reduced mammograms and bone density tests and programs for the chronic inebriate population. Operated at a loss, respective BH communities would be deprived of these services if not for the organizations involvement.
SCHEDULE H, PART IIIn furtherance of its exempt mission, BH provides a broad range of benefits to the communities it serves. These activities promoted the health, safety and well-being of local communities by providing advocacy services to its constituents through participation in local and national health campaigns, enhancing community workforce through recruitment for medically underserved areas, provision of leaders to develop local talent, provision of staff for community volunteerism, recognizing the employee volunteer base, participation in various community awareness programs, involvement in community economic development efforts and being a good corporate citizen. The results of these efforts include but are not limited to: - Promoting community health - Providing volunteer leadership to local boards and task forces thereby allowing the entity to channel resources to the community need instead of salaries. - Providing Federal medically underserved areas with physicians. - Providing disaster training and education to improve community safety and awareness for residents. - Partnering with local blood banks to blood combat shortages. - Providing meeting room, electronic teleconference technology and other space for various community groups. Without these in-kind donations, these organizations would be required to expend funds, funds needed in support of their missions for space rental - Partnering with local United Way agencies to improve and enhance community initiatives. - Support of community social service needs through employee food and clothing initiatives.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 1BH WRITES OFF BAD DEBT AS AN OPERATING EXPENSE (AS OPPOSED TO A REDUCTION IN ALLOWANCE) AND BAD DEBT RESERVES ARE EVALUATED MONTHLY. THIS METHODOLOGY ALLOWS THE ORGANIZATION TO ARRIVE AT THE SAME POSITION AS STATEMENT 15 DESCRIBES. WE DO NOT HOWEVER WRITE DOWN SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS USING A CONTRA REVENUE ACCOUNT UNLESS WE HAVE DEEMED IT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WHICH IS A VARIANCE FROM THE STATEMENT (WHICH REQUIRES A WRITE DOWN OF THE RECEIVABLE TO THE COLLECTIBLE AMOUNT USING A CONTRA REVENUE ACCOUNT).
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 2THE PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES RATIO IS APPLIED TO THE BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS TO CALCULATE THE ESTIMATED COST OF BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO ACCOUNTS/AMOUNTS REPORTED ON LINE 2. DISCOUNTS AND PAYMENTS ON PATIENT ACCOUNTS ARE RECORDED AS AN ADJUSTMENT TO REVENUE, NOT BAD DEBT EXPENSE.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 3In 2006 the organization engaged a third party to assess the validity of accounts attributable to bad debt and to analyze what percent of bad debt could be/should be attributable to patients who would otherwise have qualified for financial assistance under the BH financial assistance policies. Based on the study, BH estimates that in excess of 60% of the patient accounts comprising the organization's bad debt may have been eligible for financial assistance under BH policies. Following this study, the organization endeavored to enhance efforts to inform patients of its financial assistance policies. However, in order to ensure that the organization's enhanced financial assistance policy is utilized only by those persons who truly require such enhanced assistance, the policy requires that patients must first apply complete an application, provide supporting documentation and (with some exceptions) apply for Medicaid. Despite encouragement by the organization, there are many times when the patient refuses or is unable to complete an application to BH, provide information to support qualification, or apply for Medicaid.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 4FOOTNOTE PER AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (PAGE 12): NET PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FOOTNOTE: NET PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND NET PATIENT SERVICES REVENUES HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED TO THE ESTIMATED AMOUNTS EXPECTED TO BE RECEIVED BASED ON CONTRACTUAL RATES FOR SERVICES RENDERED. THESE ESTIMATED AMOUNTS ARE SUBJECT TO FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS UPON REVIEW BY THIRD-PARTY PAYORS. MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES THE PROVISION FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS FOR EACH MAJOR PAYOR BASED UPON HISTORICAL COLLECTION EXPERIENCE OF EACH FACILITY. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS PAYMENT DATA FOR EACH MAJOR PAYOR IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. COSTING METHODOLOGY: THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES IS APPLIED TO THE BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS TO CALCULATE THE ESTIMATED COST OF BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS THAT IS REPORTED ON LINE 2. DISCOUNTS AND PAYMENTS ON PATIENT ACCOUNTS ARE RECORDED AS AN ADJUSTMENT TO REVENUE NOT BAD DEBT EXPENSE.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 8THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS THAT HOSPITALS ARE REQUIRED TO FILE DO NOT INCLUDE ALL OF THE COSTS REQUIRED TO TREAT MEDICARE PATIENTS. USING A FINANCIAL STATEMENT COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO METHODOLOGY, THE 2013 RESULT IS A SURPLUS IN 2013 OF $11,034,578. THIS IS AN ISOLATED OCCURRENCE RESULTING FROM THE LAG IN MEDICARE COST REPORT COSTS AS COMPARED TO NET REVENUE. THIS SITUATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO CONTINUE AND A RETURN TO A SHORTFALL POSITION IS PROJECTED AS CALCULATIONS REFLECTED ON THE COST REPORT DO NOT CUSTOMARILY TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ALL COSTS INCURRED BY THE ORGANIZATION AND DIFFERS FROM THE COST REFLECTED ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THESE MEDICARE SHORTFALLS THAT MORE TYPICALLY OCCUR SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE, ABSENT THIS PROGRAM, MANY INDIVIDUALS WOULD QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND OTHER NEEDS BASED PROGRAMS. BY ACCEPTING PAYMENT BELOW COST TO TREAT THESE INDIVIDUALS, THE BURDENS OF THE GOVERNMENT ARE RELIEVED AND THE AMOUNT SPENT TO COVER THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL IS MONEY NOT AVAILABLE TO COVER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT NEEDS.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 9BFINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR WHICH THE PATIENT HAS QUALIFIED. IF THE ACCOUNT IS NOT WRITTEN OFF COMPLETELY, THE REDUCED BALANCE IS TREATED IN THE SAME MANNER AS ACCOUNTS FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE WHO DO NOT QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. FOR THOSE PATIENTS WHO DO NOT QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND FOR THE PORTION OF THE ACCOUNTS REMAINING AFTER APPLICATION OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICIES FOR PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR SUCH ASSISTANCE, ACCOUNT COLLECTION PROCESS IS AS FOLLOWS: 1) THE PATIENT OR GUARANTOR WILL RECEIVE THREE STATEMENTS PRIOR TO THE ACCOUNT BEING PLACED WITH AN OUTSIDE AGENCY. THE STATEMENT PROCESS INVOLVES THREE STATEMENT CYCLES FOR EACH ACCOUNT: (1) ONE DAY AFTER FINAL BILL, (2) 36 DAYS AFTER FINAL BILL AND (3) 71 DAYS AFTER FINAL BILL. THE PROCESS TAKES 105 DAYS TO COMPLETE. THE ACCOUNT IS SENT TO COLLECTIONS FIVE DAYS AFTER THE FINAL STATEMENT CYCLE. 2) ATTEMPTS ARE MADE TO VERIFY PHYSICAL LOCATION OF PATIENT AND ALSO TO DETERMINE IF THE PATIENT MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR AHCCCS/MEDICAID COVERAGE. IN ADDITION AN ATTEMPT IS MADE VIA PHONE BASED ON THE GUARANTOR'S PROPENSITY TO PAY AND A DETERMINED DOLLAR AMOUNT FOR THE TOP 50% OF OUR CUSTOMERS. 3) ACCOUNTS ARE TURNED OVER TO AN OUTSIDE AGENCY UNDER CONTRACT WITH BH WHEN ALL EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED. 4) ONCE ASSIGNED TO AN OUTSIDE COLLECTION AGENCY, VARIOUS DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ARE UTILIZED IN DIFFERENT STATES, DEPENDING UPON LOCAL CUSTOM AND PRACTICE. IN ALMOST ALL SITUATIONS, THE COLLECTION AGENCY ATTEMPTS TO OBTAIN PAYMENT FROM THE PATIENT BY MEANS OF DIRECT TELEPHONE CONTACT. IF THIS IS UNSUCCESSFUL, FAILURE TO MAKE PAYMENT UPON AN ACCOUNT RESULTS IN A REPORT TO A CREDIT AGENCY. IN CERTAIN STATES, THE COLLECTION AGENCY WILL FILE A COLLECTION LAWSUIT TO OBTAIN A JUDGMENT UPON THE UNPAID ACCOUNT, DEPENDING UPON THE ASSESSMENT OF THE AGENCY AS TO THE POTENTIAL COLLECTIBILITY OF THE ACCOUNT. IN THE ORGANIZATION'S PRIMARY STATE, ARIZONA, LAWSUITS ARE RARELY INITIATED, TYPICALLY ONLY WHEN THERE IS REASON TO BELIEVE THAT THE PATIENT HAS SUFFICIENT NET ASSETS TO PAY THE ACCOUNT, AND REQUIRE THE PRIOR APPROVAL OF BH.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 2BH utilizes its Strategy and Planning Team to continually identify areas in the communities BH serves where institutional clinical needs are not being satisfied especially for those within underserved, uninsured and minority populations. It also leverages a multi-phased approach to understanding gaps in services provided to communities served by hospitals within the system as well as community resources through a combination of population growth and changing demographics analysis, detailed analysis of national, state and county data sources, healthcare services available through other hospital providers, physician supply in the BH service areas, new and more effective healthcare services that are becoming available that would elevate the quality of healthcare services provided to BH communities, and demand pressures experienced by existing BH facilities and physicians. On a local basis, hospital management teams regularly consult with community leaders and partners, local community-based advisory boards, other service providers (including federally qualified health clinics) and businesses to identify unmet physician and hospital needs. These findings are then prioritized based on system capital and operating resource availability, feasibility, availability of physicians to be recruited to the service area, and sustainability. Based upon this prioritization, capital and operating resources are then integrated into the facility and System budgets and plans.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 3POLICIES AND PROCEDURES EXIST TO EDUCATE OUR PATIENTS ON FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY AND THEY ARE PROVIDED NUMEROUS OPPORTUNITIES FOR EDUCATION ON BANNER HEALTH FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICIES. THE FOLLOWING ARE EXAMPLES OF COMMUNICATION/EDUCATION AVAILABLE TO BH PATIENTS: A. SIGNAGE AND COLLATERAL IN BOTH ENGLISH AND SPANISH ARE POSTED PROMINENTLY IN PATIENT WAITING LOBBIES, INCLUDING THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS, STATING THAT BANNER HAS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE OR MAY BE UNABLE TO PAY FOR THEIR SHARE OF THE COST OF SERVICES. B. A TOLL FREE NUMBER IS PROVIDED FOR THE PATIENT'S/FAMILY'S CONVENIENCE. C. AFTER MEDICAL SCREENING, PATIENTS ARE VISITED BY STAFF AND INFORMED OF THE FINANCIAL POLICY. STAFF ALSO ASSISTS POTENTIALLY ELIGIBLE PATIENTS TO APPLY FOR ENROLLMENT FOR MEDICAID/AHCCCS. D. A BRIGHTLY COLORED INSERT IS INCLUDED IN ALL OF OUR BILLING STATEMENTS TO PATIENTS. THE INSERT AGAIN INFORMS PATIENTS OF THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN BOTH ENGLISH AND SPANISH AND PROVIDES TOLL-FREE ACCESS. E. DEPARTMENT REPRESENTATIVES AGAIN INFORM PATIENTS OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICIES DURING THE SELF-PAY COLLECTION PROCESS. F. BANNER HEALTH WEBSITE PROVIDES INFORMATION IN BOTH ENGLISH AND SPANISH OF THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS, STAFF CONTINUES TO ADVISE POTENTIALLY ELIGIBLE PATIENTS OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ENROLLMENT IN MEDICAID/AHCCCS AND OFFERS TO ASSIST IN SUCH ENROLLMENT.

SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 5BH IS GOVERNED BY A COMMUNITY BOARD, DRAWN PRIMARILY FROM THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY BH. THIS BOARD ESTABLISHES BH PRIORITIES AND ENSURES THAT IT OPERATES IN A MANNER THAT WILL FURTHER ITS CHARITABLE, NONPROFIT PURPOSE TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES. AS A NONPROFIT ENTITY, BH EXISTS TO PROVIDE HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE, NOT TO GENERATE PROFITS. TO THAT END, EVERY DOLLAR EARNED IS REINVESTED IN NEW EQUIPMENT, NEW OR EXPANDED PATIENT CARE SERVICES, NEW TECHNOLOGIES, MAINTENANCE OF EXISTING EQUIPMENT AND FACILITIES AND NEW FACILITIES TO MEET MARKET NEEDS OR TO ENSURE THE LONG-TERM SUCCESS OF THE ORGANIZATION. FOR EVERY $1 RECEIVED IN PAYMENT FOR PROVIDING CARE TO PATIENTS, WE SPEND ON AVERAGE $.95 TO PAY OUR EXPENSES. THESE EXPENSES ARE ALLOCATED AS FOLLOWS: - SALARIES AND BENEFITS (.49) - OPERATING EXPENSES SUCH AS UTILITIES, MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS AND INSURANCE (.16) - SUPPLIES (.16) - DEPRECIATION ON CAPITAL INVESTMENTS LIKE EQUIPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION (.05) - INTEREST AND LEASE EXPENSE (.04) - BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOR PATIENTS THAT ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY FOR THEIR CARE (.05) IN PARTICULAR, BANNER'S HEAVY REINVESTMENT IN CLINICAL SYSTEMS AND HEALTH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ENABLES BH TO PROVIDE A UNIFORMLY HIGH QUALITY OF CARE THROUGHOUT THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING BH'S SMALL, RURAL, CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITALS. PHYSICIANS AND STAFF PRACTICING IN THESE SOLE COMMUNITY PROVIDERS HAVE THE SAME ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD SYSTEMS AND COMPUTERIZED PHYSICIAN ORDER ENTRY AND DECISION SUPPORT TOOLS AS ARE UTILIZED IN BH'S LARGEST TEACHING HOSPITAL. IN ADDITION, BY MEANS OF REMOTE MONITORING AND TELEMEDICINE TECHNOLOGIES, THESE SMALL RURAL HOSPITALS HAVE ACCESS TO THE CLINICAL AND OPERATIONAL SUPPORT OF THE ENTIRE SYSTEM, THEREBY BRINGING A LEVEL OF SOPHISTICATED HEALTH CARE TO THESE COMMUNITIES THAT WOULD NOT OTHERWISE BE POSSIBLE. EXCEPT IN LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE NECESSARY TO ENSURE THE AVAILABILITY OF CONSISTENT AND EFFICIENT PHYSICIAN SERVICES, BH UTILIZES AN OPEN MEDICAL STAFF MODEL, THEREBY MAKING THE FACILITIES AVAILABLE TO LOCAL PHYSICIANS TO PROVIDE HIGH-QUALITY HOSPITAL SERVICES TO OUR COMMUNITIES. IN ADDITION, BH IS AGGRESSIVELY PURSUING AN INTEGRATION STRATEGY INVOLVING NETWORKS OF EMPLOYED AND INDEPENDENT PHYSICIANS CAPABLE OF PROVIDING EFFICIENT, EVIDENCE-BASED AND HIGH-QUALITY CLINICAL CARE WITHIN AN INTEGRATED SYSTEM COVERING THE FULL CONTINUUM OF CARE. THIS WILL ENABLE BH TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES WHILE LIMITING THE COSTS OF PROVIDING SUCH CARE.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 7AS REQUIRED BY LAW, BANNER FILES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT IN CALIFORNIA. BANNER ALSO REPORTS IN THOSE STATES WITH VOLUNTARY HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION REPORTING REQUIREMENTS (ALASKA, COLORADO AND NEBRASKA).

IN CONNECTION WITH EACH SUCH EVALUATION, THE COMMITTEE REQUESTS A WRITTEN CERTIFICATION FROM EACH CONSULTANT THAT: - INCLUDES AN INDEPENDENCE ATTESTATION AFFIRMING THAT THE CONSULTANT HAS CONDUCTED ITS OWN INTERNAL ASSESSMENT AND, BASED ON SUCH ASSESSMENT AND ITS INTERNAL CONTROLS, CONCLUDED THAT IT HAS PERFORMED ITS SERVICES FOR THE COMMITTEE IN AN INDEPENDENT MANNER AND IS INDEPENDENT AS DEFINED IN THE INTERMEDIATE SANCTION REGULATIONS UNDER CODE SECTION 4958 - CONFIRMS THAT THE CONSULTANT REPORTS TO THE COMMITTEE THROUGH THE CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE AND THAT ALL CONSULTING ACTIVITY FOR BANNER HEALTH CONDUCTED BY SUCH CONSULTANT DURING THE PRECEDING YEAR WAS CONDUCTED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE AND CONSENT OF THE CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE - DETAILS THE AMOUNTS PAID BY BANNER HEALTH TO THE CONSULTANT IN ITS CAPACITY AS AN EXTERNAL COMPENSATION CONSULTANT TO THE COMMITTEE, AND THE AMOUNTS PAID BY BANNER HEALTH, IF ANY, TO THE CONSULTANT AND ITS AFFILIATES FOR ANY OTHER ENGAGEMENTS.
