| Eligibility criteria for free or discounted care | Schedule H, Part I, Line 3c | THE DETERMINATION IS MADE ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS. SOME OF THE TYPES OF DISCOUNTS THAT HAVE BEEN OFFERED TO THOSE INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE ARE AS FOLLOWS: ALL SELF PAY AND CASH PAYING PATIENTS ARE OFFERED DISCOUNTED PRICING BASED ON A MULTIPLE OF MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT, ESTABLISHED EMERGENCY ROOM FLAT RATES, FLAT DISCOUNTS BASED ON GROSS CHARGES AND OR COVERAGE OF COSTS PER INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNT. ALL SELF PAY AND UNINSURED PATIENTS THAT DO NOT REQUEST DISCOUNT PRICING PRIOR TO OR AT THE TIME OF SERVICE ARE OFFERED A 30% DISCOUNT OFF BILLED CHARGES ON THE FIRST STATEMENT FROM OUR EXTENDED BUSINESS OFFICE. |
| Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistance | Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 | THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COSTS TO CHARGES FROM WORKSHEET 2 WAS USED TO CALCULATE THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING CHARITY CARE AND MEANS-TESTED GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS TO OUR PATIENTS. CHARITY CARE COSTS: THE TOTAL CHARGES FOR ALL PATIENT ACCOUNTS WITH A CHARITY CARE WRITE OFF DURING FISCAL YEAR 2013 WERE DOWNLOADED. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM WORKSHEET 2 WAS APPLIED TO THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF GROSS PATIENT CHARGES WRITTEN OFF PURSUANT TO OUR CHARITY CARE POLICY TO OBTAIN OUR ESTIMATED TOTAL CHARITY CARE COST. UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID PROGRAM COSTS: TOTAL GROSS CHARGES FOR ALL MEDICAID PATIENTS WERE DOWNLOADED. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM WORKSHEET 2 WAS APPLIED TO THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF GROSS MEDICAID PATIENT CHARGES TO OBTAIN THE ESTIMATED TOTAL MEDICAID COSTS. OTHER BENEFIT COSTS WERE DETERMINED BY ESTIMATING THE TOTAL HOURS ASSOCIATED WITH EACH COMMUNITY SERVICE AND APPLYING AN AVERAGE HOUR RATE TO THE STAFF WORKING THE EVENT. THE TOTAL DIRECT EXPENSES WERE TRACKED FOR EACH SERVICE AND ADDED TO THE LABOR COST. |
| Bad Debt Expense excluded from financial assistance calculation | Schedule H, Part I, Line 7, column(f) | 53,531,270 |
| Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount | Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 | BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS BASED ON ACTUAL WRITE-OFFS OF ZERO BALANCE ACCOUNTS IN ADDITION TO AN ESTIMATE OF UNSETTLED ACCOUNTS BASED ON HISTORICAL PERCENTAGES. |
| Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount as community benefit | Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 | OUR ORGANIZATION APPLIED A PERCENTAGE OF 7.35%, TO THE TOTAL DOLLAR AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT TO ESTIMATE THE AMOUNT OF OUR ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY UP TO 100% FPIL. THIS PERCENTAGE IS BASED ON EQUIFAX SCORING (PROPRIETARY CREDIT SCORING ALGORITHM) ANALYSIS OF A STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT POPULATION (21,351) OF DEBTORS PLACED IN COLLECTION FROM 10/1/2012-9/30/2013. CONSUMERS WITH AN EQUIFAX SCORE OF 301-500 (ON A SCALE OF 301-900) WOULD QUALIFY FOR CHARITY ASSISTANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH BETHESDA HOSPITAL'S POLICY IF THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS AND ATTESTATIONS WERE SUBMITTED. |
| Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote | Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 | THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS IS BASED ON HISTORICAL COLLECTION AND WRITE-OFF EXPERIENCE. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE TURNED OVER TO COLLECTION AGENCIES AT CERTAIN AGING INTERVALS DEPENDING ON THE INSURANCE PAYOR. THE SYSTEM DOES NOT REQUIRE COLLATERAL, AND LOSSES, ARE ANTICIPATED TO BE WITHIN MANAGEMENT'S EXPECTATIONS. |
| Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs | Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 | THE COST IS BASED ON THE HOSPITAL'S FY 2013 AS FILED MEDICARE COST REPORT COSTING METHODOLOGY. THE SHORTFALL IS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS THESE SERVICES WERE NOT FULLY REIMBURSED. |
| Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance | Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b | OUR COLLECTION PROTOCOL PROVIDES OUR COLLECTION AGENCY THE DISCRETIONARY AUTHORITY TO SEND A CHARITY APPLICATION TO A DEBTOR UPON REQUEST OR REFER THE DEBTOR TO OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNIT BASED ON AN INITIAL SCREENING OF THEIR ASSETS, INCOME AND ABILITY TO PAY. AT ANY POINT IN THE COLLECTION CYCLE IF A PATIENT DECLARES THAT THEY MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, FURTHER COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE SUSPENDED PENDING THE DETERMINATION OF THE PATIENT'S DOCUMENTED ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. |

LOW-INCOME PATIENTS INCLUDE PATIENTS WHO WERE ENTITLED TO BENEFITS UNDER MEDICARE PART A AND WERE ENTITLED TO SUPPLEMENTARY SECURITY INCOME (SSI) BENEFITS AND PATIENTS WHO WERE ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE UNDER A STATE PLAN APPROVED UNDER TITLE XIX.
