        <Identifier>FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 6A</Identifier>
        <Explanation>THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT IS PREPARED BY ITS PARENT ENTITY, MERCY HEALTH (EIN: 43-1423050). FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN F TOTAL EXPENSES FROM FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A) ARE $240,691,979. INCLUDED IN THIS AMOUNT WAS BAD DEBT EXPENSE (CHARGES) OF $20,344,339. EXPENSES FOR THE PURPOSE OF CALCULATING LINE 7, COLUMN (F) ARE $220,347,640. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7G SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES THE ORGANIZATION DID NOT INCLUDE ANY PHYSICIAN CLINIC COSTS ON LINE 7G. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART II A FULL DESCRIPTION OF OUR COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.MERCY.NET/COMMUNITY-BENEFITS. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 2 TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE, AT COST, BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS WAS MULTIPLIED BY A RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES. THE RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES USED WAS BASED ON DETAILED COST ACCOUNTING, WHERE AVAILABLE. WHERE COST ACCOUNTING IS NOT AVAILABLE, COST REPORT COST TO CHARGE RATIOS WERE UTILIZED. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 3 THE FILING ORGANIZATION DETERMINED THAT THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY IS $0. ALTHOUGH THE CHARITY CARE POLICY REQUIRES THE PARTICIPATION OF THE PATIENT REQUESTING ASSISTANCE, WE HAVE A PROCESS UNDER PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY (REFER TO DISCLOSURE FOR PART III, #9B) TO ADDRESS ACCOUNTS FOR PATIENTS WHO DO NOT PROVIDE THE INFORMATION. WE BELIEVE THAT OUR CHARITY POLICY IS COMPREHENSIVE ENOUGH TO CAPTURE ALMOST ALL PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 4 THE TEXT OF THE FOOTNOTE THAT IS INCLUDED IN MERCY HEALTH AND SUBSIDIARIES AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT DESCRIBES BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS AS FOLLOWS: "PATIENT ACCOUNTS THAT ARE UNCOLLECTED, INCLUDING THOSE PLACED WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES, ARE INITIALLY CHARGED AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH COLLECTION POLICIES OF THE HEALTH SYSTEM AND, IN CERTAIN CASES, ARE RECLASSIFIED TO CHARITY CARE IF DEEMED TO OTHERWISE MEET THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S CHARITY CARE POLICY. THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES IS BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE COVERAGE, AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. PERIODICALLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, MANAGEMENT ASSESSES THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES BASED UPON THE PAYOR COMPOSITION AND AGING OF RECEIVABLES AS OF THE REPORTING DATE WITH CONSIDERATION OF THE HISTORICAL PAYMENT AND WRITE-OFF EXPERIENCE BY PAYOR CATEGORY. THE RESULTS OF THESE REVIEWS ARE THEN USED TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES TO ESTABLISH AN APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES. AFTER SATISFACTION OF AMOUNTS DUE FROM INSURANCE, THE HEALTH SYSTEM FOLLOWS ESTABLISHED GUIDELINES FOR PLACING PAST-DUE PATIENT BALANCES WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES." FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 8 IT IS THE POSITION OF MERCY HOSPITAL FORT SMITH THAT 100% OF ANY SHORTFALL SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THIS AMOUNT REPRESENTS COST OF PROVIDING SERVICES THAT REMAIN UNCOMPENSATED TO THE PROVIDER. THE UNREIMBURSED COSTS OF MEDICARE IS CALCULATED BY THE GROSS CHARGES NET OF THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO LESS ANY PAYMENTS, DEDUCTIONS OR REIMBURSEMENTS USING THE ANNUAL MEDICARE COST REPORT (CMS FORM 2552-96). FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 9B MERCY HOSPITAL FORT SMITH'S ("MERCY'S") DEBT COLLECTION POLICY PROVIDES THAT MERCY WILL PERFORM A REASONABLE REVIEW OF EACH INPATIENT ACCOUNT BEFORE TURNING AN ACCOUNT TO A THIRD-PARTY COLLECTION AGENT AND PRIOR TO INSTITUTING ANY LEGAL ACTION FOR NON-PAYMENT, TO ASSURE THAT THE PATIENT AND PATIENT GUARANTOR ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR ANY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (E.G., MEDICAID) AND DO NOT QUALIFY FOR COVERAGE THROUGH MERCY'S COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE POLICY. AFTER HAVING BEEN TURNED OVER TO A THIRD-PARTY COLLECTION AGENT, ANY PATIENT ACCOUNT THAT IS SUBSEQUENTLY DETERMINED TO HAVE MET THE MERCY HOSPITAL COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE POLICY IS REQUIRED TO BE RETURNED IMMEDIATELY BY THE THIRD-PARTY COLLECTION AGENT TO MERCY FOR APPROPRIATE FOLLOW-UP. MERCY REQUIRES ITS THIRD-PARTY COLLECTION AGENTS TO INCLUDE A MESSAGE ON ALL STATEMENTS INDICATING THAT IF A PATIENT OR PATIENT GUARANTOR MEETS CERTAIN STIPULATED INCOME REQUIREMENTS, THE PATIENT OR PATIENT GUARANTOR MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. MERCY UTILIZES THE "SEARCH AMERICA" TOOL TO ENHANCE THE ABILITY TO DETERMINE CHARITY QUALIFICATION. PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY WILL BE GRANTED IN SITUATIONS WHERE MERCY HOSPITAL HAS BEEN UNABLE TO OBTAIN INFORMATION FROM PATIENTS OR THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IS NOT COMPLETE ENOUGH TO MAKE A CHARITY DETERMINATION. MERCY UTILIZES PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY PRIOR TO BAD DEBT PLACEMENT FOR CHARITY ADJUSTMENTS IN EXCESS OF $6,500. IN THESE CASES, MERCY UTILIZES THE SEARCH AMERICA REPORT STATUS OF "PROBABLE CHARITY" AS THE BASIS FOR ASSIGNING THE CHARITY LEVEL. MERCY WILL PURSUE APPROPRIATE MEANS IN THE COLLECTION OF DELINQUENT ACCOUNTS FROM PATIENTS WITH AN ESTABLISHED ABILITY TO PAY OR AN UNWILLINGNESS TO COOPERATE IN VALIDATING ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THESE APPROPRIATE MEANS MAY INCLUDE LEGAL ACTION CONSISTENT WITH MERCY MISSION AND VALUES. ADDITIONALLY THEY MAY INCLUDE LIENS UPON REAL PROPERTY AND REASONABLE WAGE GARNISHMENTS. LEGAL ACTIONS WILL GENERALLY NOT INCLUDE BANK GARNISHMENT, REPOSSESSION OF ASSETS OR FORECLOSURES TO ENFORCE SATISFACTION OF A LIEN. MERCY HAS POLICIES AND PROCEDURES ESTABLISHED TO ADDRESS THE INITIATION OF LEGAL ACTION AND ANNUALLY REVIEWS COMPLIANCE WITH ALL POLICIES. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, LINE 3 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT PLEASE REFER TO THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT WHICH CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.MERCY.NET/COMMUNITY-BENEFITS. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, LINE 20 ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES FOR INCOME ARE THE BASIS FOR DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS. FOR EXAMPLE, INDIVIDUALS WITH INCOMES BELOW 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE CARE. INDIVIDUALS WITH INCOMES GREATER THAN 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR CARE AT DISCOUNTED RATES DEPENDING ON THEIR INCOME LEVEL AND/OR THE AMOUNT DUE TO THE HOSPITAL. ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AFTER APPROPRIATE DISCOUNTS HAVE BEEN APPLIED, ARRANGEMENTS MAY BE MADE FOR AN INTEREST-FREE MONTHLY PAYMENT PLAN. GENERALLY, NO PATIENT'S FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY WILL BE GREATER THAN 20% OF ANNUAL HOUSEHOLD INCOME OR 10% OF NET ASSETS (WHICH EVER IS GREATER), ADJUSTED TO CONSIDER AVAILABILITY OF OTHER ASSETS THAT COULD BE USED TOWARD MAKING PAYMENTS. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 2 NEEDS ASSESSMENT MERCY HEALTH BELIEVES THAT ITS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROCESS IS COMPREHENSIVE ENOUGH TO CAPTURE SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE COMMUNITY'S NEEDS. THEREFORE NO FURTHER STEPS WERE TAKEN TO IDENTIFY ADDITIONAL NEEDS. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 3 THE FILING ORGANIZATION HAS PRINTED MATERIAL AVAILABLE AT EACH POINT OF REGISTRATION IN OUR FACILITY, IN ADDITION TO ELECTRONICALLY AVAILABILITY AT OUR WEB SITE AT MERCY.NET. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INFORMATION AS A PART OF OUR HEALING MINISTRY, THE FILING ORGANIZATION IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING QUALITY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR FINANCIAL SITUATION. WE OFFER PAYMENT ASSISTANCE FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE OR WHO ARE IN FINANCIAL NEED. UNINSURED PATIENT DISCOUNTS A DISCOUNT FROM THE HOSPITAL'S REGULAR BILLED CHARGES WILL BE PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE. THIS INCLUDES PATIENTS WHOSE FINANCIAL SITUATION NORMALLY WOULD NOT OTHERWISE QUALIFY THEM FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS. PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE WHOSE FINANCIAL SITUATION QUALIFIES THEM FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS (SEE ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES BELOW) ARE ASSISTED OR ASKED IN APPLYING FOR MEDICAID BEFORE APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. MERCY WORKS TO EXHAUST ALL EFFORTS TO COORDINATE WITH THE PATIENT TO APPLY FOR MEDICAID, BUT DOES NOT PROHIBIT CHARITY CONSIDERATIONS IF DENIED NOR APPLIED. APPLICATIONS FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS WILL BE REVIEWED FOR ELIGIBILITY BASED ON THE APPLICANT'S INCOME, FAMILY SIZE, AMOUNT OF PAYMENT DUE AND AVAILABILITY OF OTHER ASSETS OR RESOURCES. PLEASE NOTE THAT CARE MUST BE MEDICALLY NECESSARY TO BE CONSIDERED ELIGIBLE FOR UNINSURED PATIENT DISCOUNTS. FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 4 COMMUNITY INFORMATION MERCY HOSPITAL FORT SMITH'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA INCLUDES 13 COUNTIES ACROSS THE BORDER OF ARKANSAS AND OKLAHOMA. THESE INCLUDE CRAWFORD, FRANKLIN, JOHNSON, LOGAN, POLK, SCOTT, SEBASTIAN AND YELL IN ARKANSAS; AND ADAIR, HASKELL, LATIMER, LE FLORE AND SEQUOYAH IN OKLAHOMA.
