DescriptionCOMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORTING - CHARITY CARE AND MEDICAID CHRISTUS ADHERES TO THE CATHOLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATION'S A GUIDE FOR PLANNING AND REPORTING COMMUNITY BENEFIT (2012) AND COMPLIES WITH THE STATE OF TEXAS REQUIREMENTS FOR REPORTING. COMMUNITY BENEFIT, REPORTED AS UNPAID COSTS, INCLUDES BOTH CHARITY CARE AND COMMUNITY SERVICES. TO THE LIMITS OF ITS RESOURCES, CHRISTUS HEALTH IS AN INSTITUTION OF PURELY PUBLIC CHARITY; THUS, THE MOST TANGIBLE EXPRESSION OF CHRISTUS HEALTH'S CHARITABLE PURPOSE IS THE PROVISION OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO THOSE PERSONS WHO ARE UNABLE TO PAY. THIS FALLS INTO TWO CATEGORIES: CHARITY CARE AND UNPAID GOVERNMENT INDIGENT CARE. IN KEEPING WITH THE MISSION, VALUES, AND VISION OF CHRISTUS HEALTH, CHRISTUS HEALTH SOUTHWESTERN LOUISIANA PROVIDES CHARITY CARE SERVICES IN A MANNER THAT RESPECTS THE DIGNITY OF THE PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. CHARITY CARE IS PROVIDED WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT A CHARGE THAT IS LESS THAN THE USUAL CHARGE FOR SUCH SERVICES. THE DETERMINATION AS TO THE AMOUNT TO BE CHARGED, IF ANY, IS MADE ACCORDING TO A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY AS DETERMINED BY THE ESTABLISHED ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS WHOSE ECONOMIC CIRCUMSTANCES PLACE THEM AT OR UNDER 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL), SERVICES ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY EXPECTATION OF PAYMENT. UNINSURED PATIENTS WHOSE ECONOMIC CIRCUMSTANCES PLACE THEM BETWEEN 200 AND 400 PERCENT OF FPL ARE CHARGED BASED ON A SLIDING SCALE, AND THOSE ABOVE 400 PERCENT RECEIVE DISCOUNTS BASED ON THE UNINSURED FEE SCHEDULE. NO PATIENT IS REFUSED NECESSARY MEDICAL CARE DUE TO INABILITY TO PAY. CHRISTUS HEALTH IS AN ACTIVE PARTICIPANT IN THE STATES OF TEXAS AND LOUISIANA MEDICAID PROGRAMS. THOSE PROGRAMS SEEK TO PROVIDE PAYMENT FOR HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS WHO MEET CERTAIN FINANCIAL AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS. FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS INCLUDE EVALUATION OF BOTH ASSETS AND INCOME.Description

Part III, Section A, Line 1Bad Debt Reporting in Accordance with HFMA Statement 15CHRISTUS HEALTH FOLLOWS IN PRINCIPLE HEALTHCARE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION STATEMENT NO. 15. THE SYSTEM HAS ADOPTED AN UNCOMPENSATED CARE POLICY WHERE REVENUE FROM SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE UNINSURED IS RECOGNIZED AT THE TIME OF PAYMENT, RATHER THAN AT THE TIME OF SERVICE. THIS POLICY IS THE RESULT OF A LACK OF REASONABLE ASSURANCE OF COLLECTION FOR SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE UNINSURED DUE TO THE SYSTEM'S HISTORICALLY LOW COLLECTION RATE. MANAGEMENT HAS ESTIMATED THAT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RECORDING REVENUE FROM THE UNINSURED ON A CASH BASIS, RATHER THAN THE ACCRUAL BASIS, IS IMMATERIAL. ACCORDINGLY, ALL ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FROM THE UNINSURED HAVE BEEN FULLY RESERVED IN THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOMPENSATED CARE. Part III, Section A, Line 2 Methodology Used in Determining Bad Debt THE ORGANIZATION'S TOTAL BAD DEBT EXPENSE (TOTAL OF ALL HOSPITAL FACILITIES) IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, WHICH IS COMPUTED AS BAD DEBT NET OF CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCE, PAYMENTS RECEIVED AND RECOVERIES OF BAD DEBT PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN OFF. Part III, Section A, Line 3 Estimate of Bad Debt Expense Attributable to Patients Eligible and Organizations Charity Care Policy THE FILING ORGANIZATION RECOGNIZES THAT SOME PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO SEEK FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DUE TO BARRIERS SUCH AS EDUCATIONAL LEVEL, LITERACY, DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS, OR BEING INTIMIDATED BY THE APPLICATION PROCESS. IN ORDER TO ESTIMATE THE AMOUNT OF THE ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BUT HAVE NOT SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION, THE ORGANIZATION ENGAGED PARO DECISION SUPPORT, LLC. PARO CHARITY SCORE IS DESIGNED TO IDENTIFY PATIENTS THAT LIKELY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BASED ON A PREDICTIVE MODEL AND OTHER FINANCIAL AND ASSET ESTIMATES FOR THE PATIENT DERIVED FROM PUBLIC RECORD SOURCES. IN ORDER TO ASSESS THE BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS THAT WOULD LIKELY QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE, THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA WERE ESTABLISHED BASED ON AN ANALYSIS OF HISTORICAL DATA OF CHRISTUS HEALTH AND ITS RELATED ORGANIZATIONS: 1. PARO SCORE OF LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 586, WHICH IS A PREDICTOR DEFINING THE LIKELY SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITIONS FOR THE PATIENT; 2. ESTIMATED FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL OF LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 226%, WHICH IS BASED ON ESTIMATED HOUSEHOLD SIZE AND HOUSEHOLD ESTIMATED INCOME; AND 3. THIRD PARTY DATA AVAILABLE ON PATIENT ACCOUNTS WHICH INDICATE THAT THE PATIENT IS NOT A HOMEOWNER OR A PROBABLE HOMEOWNER. FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2011, THE ORGANIZATION REPORTED THAT 30% OF BAD DEBT EXPENSES WERE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO MAY HAVE BEEN ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BUT WERE NOT RESPONSIVE TO THE APPLICATION PROCESS EXISTING AT THAT TIME. THIS FIGURE WAS BASED ON THE PARO ANALYSIS AND ESTIMATES OF PATIENTS' FINANCIAL NEEDS THAT EXAMINED WHETHER PATIENTS WERE CHARACTERISTIC OF OTHERS WHO HISTORICALLY QUALIFIED FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE TRADITIONAL APPLICATION PROCESS. THE PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY CARE ANALYSIS PERFORMED FOR THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR DETERMINED A BENCHMARK OF BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS IN THE CHRISTUS HEALTH SYSTEM THAT LACKED THE INFORMATION TO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE UNDER THE FILING ORGANIZATION'S CUSTOMARY PROCESS BUT WOULD HAVE LIKELY QUALIFIED FOR ASSISTANCE. DURING THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2013, THE ORGANIZATION UTILIZED THE PARO SCORE TO IDENTIFY THE ACCOUNTS OF INDIVIDUAL PATIENTS THAT WERE LIKELY ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DESPITE HAVING NOT COMPLETED AN APPLICATION, AND SUCH ANALYSIS DETERMINED THAT 26.21% OF SUCH ACCOUNTS WERE LIKELY ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE ORGANIZATION GRANTED PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY FOR THESE ACCOUNTS AND THEY WERE RECLASSIFIED UNDER OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. THESE AMOUNTS WERE NOT REPORTED AS BAD DEBT. THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 3 IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY CARE BENCHMARK ESTABLISHED IN THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2011 AND THE AGGREGATE OF INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS FOR WHICH THE ORGANIZATION GRANTED PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY IN THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2013. THUS, THE ORGANIZATION ESTIMATES THAT ONLY 3.79% OF THE BAD DEBT EXPENSES IN FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2013 ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO WOULD LIKELY HAVE QUALIFIED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE FIGURE CALCULATED FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2011 WAS ESTIMATED AND NOT EXACT, AND THEREFORE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE AMOUNTS QUALIFIED AS PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY CARE IN ANY FISCAL YEAR MAY VARY FROM THE BENCHMARK ESTABLISHED IN FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2011. Part III, Section A, Line 4 Bad Debt Expense Footnote THE FOOTNOTE TO THE CHRISTUS HEALTH CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SAYS, "THE PREPARATION OF THE ACCOMPANYING CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IN CONFORMITY WITH ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES REQUIRES MANAGEMENT OF THE SYSTEM TO MAKE ASSUMPTIONS, ESTIMATES, AND JUDGMENTS THAT AFFECT THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, INCLUDING THE NOTES THERETO, AND RELATED DISCLOSURES OF COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, IF ANY. THE SYSTEM CONSIDERS CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES TO BE THOSE THAT REQUIRE MORE SIGNIFICANT JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF ITS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: RECOGNITION OF NET PATIENT REVENUES, WHICH INCLUDE CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCES; PROVISIONS FOR BAD DEBT; RESERVES FOR LOSSES AND EXPENSES RELATED TO HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL AND GENERAL LIABILITIES; DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES OF CERTAIN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS; DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUE OF CERTAIN GOODWILL AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS; AND RISKS AND ASSUMPTIONS FOR MEASUREMENT OF PENSION AND RETIREE MEDICAL LIABILITIES. MANAGEMENT RELIES ON HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE AND ON OTHER ASSUMPTIONS BELIEVED TO BE REASONABLE UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES IN MAKING ITS JUDGMENT AND ESTIMATES. ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THESE ESTIMATES." pART III, LINE 8 Extent to which shortfall should be treated as community benefit Costing Methodology THE SHORTFALL ON PART III, LINE 7 IS NOT COUNTED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THE AMOUNT ON SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 6 IS DETERMINED BY CALCULATING MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS USING WORKSHEET A OF THE MEDICARE COST REPORT. WORKSHEET A OF THE MEDICARE COST REPORT REQUIRES THE ORGANIZATION TO REMOVE NON-ALLOWABLE EXPENSES FROM TOTAL EXPENSES VIA THE ADJUSTMENTS TO EXPENSES WORKSHEETS WITHIN THE MEDICARE COST REPORT. THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 6 DOES NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ALL COSTS INCURRED BY THE FILING ORGANIZATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE FILING ORGANIZATION'S PROVISIONS OF SERVICES TO MEDICARE PATIENTS. SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 7 WOULD EQUAL A SHORTFALL OF ($13,863,778) IF TOTAL EXPENSES ALLOCABLE TO MEDICARE SERVICES WERE SUBSTITUTED ON SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 6. pART III, LINE 9B Collection Policy IT IS THE POLICY OF THE ORGANIZATION TO PURSUE COLLECTIONS OF PATIENT BALANCES FROM PATIENTS WHO HAVE THE ABILITY TO PAY FOR THESE SERVICES. CHRISTUS HEALTH APPLIES ITS COLLECTION EFFORTS CONSISTENTLY AND FAIRLY TO ALL PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF INSURANCE. IF A PATIENT DOES NOT HAVE THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO PAY THEIR OUTSTANDING BALANCES, THE GOAL OF THE ORGANIZATION IS TO QUALIFY THESE PATIENTS THROUGH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY POLICY OR SCREEN THE PATIENTS THROUGH ORGANIZATION'S PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY TESTS. IF THE PATIENT QUALIFIES UNDER EITHER POLICY THE ACCOUNT WILL BE WRITTEN OFF BASED UPON LEVEL OF QUALIFICATION. THESE POLICIES SUPPORT THE MISSION AND VISION OF THE ORGANIZATION AND ARE APPROVED BY SENIOR LEADERSHIP. Part V, Section B, Line 3 INPUT FROM REPRESENTATIVES OF THE COMMUNITY Community Assessment was conducted for the 292,619 residents of the five parish area defining Southwest Louisiana (SWLA). SWLA is comprised of Allen Parish, Beauregard Parish, Calcasieu Parish, Cameron Parish, and Jefferson Davis Parish. THE MAJORITY OF THE RESIDENTS CAN BE FOUND IN CALCASIEU PARISH (192,768-66% OF SWLA'S TOTAL). Calcasieu Parish contains the largest city in SWLA, Lake Charles. The Louisiana Hospital Association identifies 13-acute care hospitals in SWLA: Allen Parish Allen Parish Hospital Oakdale Community Hospital Beauregard Parish Beauregard Memorial Hospital Calcasieu Parish CHRISTUS Saint Patrick Hospital DeQuincy Memorial Hospital Dr. Walter O. Moss Regional Medical Center Lake Charles Memorial Hospital West Calcasieu Cameron Hospital Women & Children's Hospital Cameron Parish South Cameron Memorial Hospital Jefferson Davis Parish Jennings American Legion Hospital Jennings Senior Care Hospital Westend Hospital The two largest hospitals are located in Calcasieu Parish, CHRISTUS Saint Patrick Hospital and Lake Charles Memorial Hospital This summary is documentation that CHRISTUS St Patricks Hospital, Lake Charles, is in compliance with the IRS requirements for conducting community health needs assessments.
Part V, Section B, Line 11Determination of eligibility for discounted careTHE HOSPITAL FACILITY PROVIDES DISCOUNTED CARE TO ALL UNINSURED PATIENTS. IN ORDER TO DETERMINE DISCOUNTS FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS, THE FACILITY UTILIZES A SLIDING SCALE BASED ON FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES AND OTHER CRITERIA APPLIED TO A UNIFORM FEE SCHEDULE. THE FACILITY HAS IMPLEMENTED A 3 TIER UNINSURED FEE SCHEDULE WHEREIN INDIVIDUALS BETWEEN 201-300% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL RECEIVE A SPECIFIC DISCOUNT PERCENTAGE OFF OF THE UNINSURED DISCOUNTED PRICE; INDIVIDUALS BETWEEN 301%-400% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL RECEIVE A SPECIFIC DISCOUNT PERCENTAGE OFF OF THE UNINSURED DISCOUNTED PRICE; AND INDIVIDUALS ABOVE 401% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL RECEIVE NO ADDITIONAL DISCOUNT OFF OF THE UNINSURED DISCOUNTED PRICE. THERE IS NO FEDERAL POVERTY LIMIT FOR THE UNINSURED POPULATION TO RECEIVE DISCOUNTED CARE BECAUSE ALL CHARGES BY THE FACILITY ARE BASED ON THE UNINSURED DISCOUNTED PRICE. THE UNINSURED DISCOUNTED PRICE IS BASED ON THE FY 2009 MANAGED CARE AVERAGE REIMBURSEMENT RATE, EXCLUDING IMPLANT AND DRUG CONTRIBUTION DOLLARS.
PART V, SECTION b, LINE 14GHOW THE HOSPITAL FACILITY PUBLICIZES THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICYTHE HOSPITAL FACILITY'S COMPLETE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY IS NOT POSTED IN THE FACILITY'S EMERGENCY ROOMS, WAITING ROOMS OR ADMISSIONS OFFICES; HOWEVER, A NOTICE THAT THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY IS AVAILABLE AT THE BUSINESS OFFICE online and IS POSTED IN THE FACILITY'S EMERGENCY ROOMS, WAITING ROOMS AND ADMISSION OFFICES.
PART V, SECTION B, LINE 15WRITTEN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICYTHE ORGANIZATION DOES NOT HAVE A POLICY THAT ADDRESSES ACTIONS IN THE EVENT OF NON-PAYMENT. THE ORGANIZATION DOES NOT PURSUE ANY OF THE LISTED ACTIONS AT LINES 16 OR 17 IN PURSUIT OF COLLECTIONS FROM INDIVIDUALS PRIOR TO MAKING A REASONABLE EFFORT TO DETERMINE THE PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER CHRISTUS HEALTH MANAGEMENT DIRECTIVE 11.
PART V, SECTION B, LINE 20DPOLICY RELATING TO EMERGENCY MEDICAL CARETHE HOSPITAL FACILITY USED THE AVERAGE MANAGED CARE REIMBURSEMENT RATE FROM THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING 6-30-09 IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THE MAXIMUM AMOUNTS THAT CAN BE CHARGED TO FAP-ELIGIBLE PATIENTS. THE AVERAGE MANAGED CARE RATE IS THE AVERAGE REIMBURSEMENT RECEIVED FOR SPECIFIC CATEGORIES OF SERVICES FROM THE COLLECTIVE GROUP OF PRIVATE INSURERS THAT REIMBURSE ALL HOSPITAL FACILITIES WITHIN THE CHRISTUS HEALTH SYSTEM EXCEPT ST. VINCENT HOSPITAL AND CHRISTUS CONTINUING CARE. PART VI, LINE 2 NEEDS ASSESSMENT THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY HEALTH PLAN WAS DEVELOPED BASED ON A NEEDS ASSESSMENT DONE IN COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS, CHURCHES, REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS, STATE LEGISLATORS, PHYSICIANS, UNITED WAY, PRIVATE BUSINESS PERSONS, LOCAL POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS. CHRISTUS HEALTH SOUTHWESTERN LOUISIANA CONTINUES TO IDENTIFY THE COMMUNITY'S NEEDS IN TWO WAYS: ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE SERVICES AND EARLY SCREENINGS AND DETECTION SERVICES. THE COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT IDENTIFIED SEVEN (7) PRIORITIES FOR THE FUTURE: 1. BETTER ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE FOR UNINSURED AND UNDERSINSURED IN OUTLYING PARISHES. 2. ADDRESSING THE NEEDS OF THOSE WITH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DISORDERS, ESPECIALLY DEPRESSIVE DISORDERS. 3. EDUCATION AND TREATMENT OF DIABETES. 4. ADDRESSING ACCESS TO CARE AND TREATMENT OF INDIVIDUALS WITH END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE. 5. ADDRESSING HIGHER THAN STATE AND NATIONAL AVERAGE OF PERSONS THAT ARE OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE. 6. ADDRESSING HIGHER THAN ADVERAGE USE OF TOBACCO PRODUCTS. 7. ADDRESSING LOWER THAN STATE AND NATIONAL AVERAGE OF PERSONS THAT REPORT RECEIVING THE SEASONAL FLU VACCINE. THE ASSESSMENT IDENTIFIED THAT THERE IS A DISPARITY OF ACCESS TO CARE IN THE NORTH LAKE CHARLES AREA AS WELL AS THE ALLEN AND BEAUREGARD PARISHES. THE NORTH LAKE CHARLES AREA IS WHERE ALL OF THE SCHOOL-BASED CLINICS ARE PRESENT, AND CHRISTUS HEALTH SOUTHWESTERN LOUISIANA IS WORKING TO HAVE A GREATER PRESENCE IN ALLEN AND BEAUREGARD PARISHES DESPITE THE LOW POPULATIONS IN THOSE AREAS. PART VI, LINE 3 PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE CHRISTUS HEALTH SOUTHWESTERN LOUISIANA MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO EDUCATE PATIENTS ON ITS CHARITY AND DISCOUNT POLICY AND ABOUT THEIR ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS DURING REGISTRATION, PRE REGISTRATION (FOR SCHEDULED TESTS AND SURGERIES), POST REGISTRATION (DURING THEIR HOSPITALIZATION) AND FOLLOWING DISCHARGE (TELEPHONE OR WRITTEN INQUIRY) IN LANGUAGES APPROPRIATE FOR THE POPULATION BEING SERVED. PATIENTS ARE GIVEN INFORMATION AND FORMS BY A FINANCIAL COUNSELOR WHO HELPS THEM COMPLETE THE FORMS DURING THEIR INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT VISITS. PATIENTS ARE ASKED TO BRING OR MAIL SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION TO DETERMINE INCOME, ASSETS AND HOUSEHOLD EXPENSES. THE BUSINESS OFFICE REVIEWS THE APPLICATION BASED ON THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE PATIENT. IF THE PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR CHARITY CARE OR A DISCOUNT, A NEW BILL IS GENERATED. PATIENTS WHO DO NOT PROVIDE THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION ARE CONSIDERED INELIGIBLE AND ARE BILLED ACCORDINGLY. IF THE DOCUMENTATION IS PROVIDED AT A LATER TIME, THE PATIENT MAY THEN BE DETERMINED TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE OR A DISCOUNT. DOCUMENTATION IS RETAINED BY THE BILLING OFFICE FOR SEVEN YEARS. A PUBLIC NOTICE REGARDING THE CHARITY CARE POLICY IS POSTED IN PROMINENT PLACES THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITALS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM WAITING AREAS AND THE ADMISSIONS OFFICE WAITING AREAS, AS REQUIRED BY BOTH THE STATE OF TEXAS COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD (WHICH ADDRESSES THE DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF NONPROFIT HOSPITALS) AND CHRISTUS HEALTH COMMUNITY BENEFIT GUIDELINES #050. IN ADDITION, A PUBLIC NOTICE REGARDING THE CHARITY CARE POLICY AND INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ARE ALSO POSTED ON THE CHRISTUS HEALTH WEBSITE. THE INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INCLUDES EXPLANATIONS ON THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, WHO QUALIFIES, AND HOW TO APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. PART VI, LINE 4 COMMUNITY INFORMATION A FIVE-PARISH REGION (ALLEN, BEAUREGARD, CAMERON, CALCASIEU, AND JEFF DAVIS) WITH A POPULATION OF NEARLY 300,000 IS SERVED BY CHRISTUS HEALTH SOUTHWESTERN LOUISIANA. THE FOLLOWING DEMOGRAPHICS CHARACTERIZE THIS REGION: THE FIVE-PARISH AREA IS PREDOMINANTLY A CAUCASIAN POPULATION, WITH AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN POPULATION THAT IS HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. THE REGION HAS HIGH POVERTY RATES AS COMPARED TO THE STATE AND NATION, DUE TO A COMBINATION OF LOW WAGE PER JOB AND HIGH UNEMPLOYMENT. THE REGION AND STATE HAVE A HIGHER RATE OF UNINSURED PERSONS THAN THE NATION. RECENTLY, MORE LOUISIANA FAMILIES ARE RECEIVING HEALTH CARE COVERAGE BECAUSE OF THE EXPANSION OF THE LA CHIP PROGRAM. COMPARED TO THE NATION, THE FIVE-PARISH AREA HAS HIGH RATES OF ORAL CAVITY, MELANOMA, PROSTATE, BREAST AND UTERINE CANCERS, DIABETES, HYPERTENSION, STDS (SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES) AND TUBERCULOSIS. PART VI, LINE 5 PROMOTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH CHRISTUS HEALTH SOUTHWESTERN LOUISIANA COLLABORATES WITH COMMUNITIES, CHURCHES, BUSINESSES, AND OTHER HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATIONS TO FACILITATE AND STRENGTHEN ACCESSIBILITY TO QUALITY COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE SERVICES FOR ALL, PARTICULARLY THE VULNERABLE AND UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS.

Return ReferenceDescription of Organization's Procedures for Monitoring the Use of GrantsReturnReference
ExplanationThe Organization follows CHRISTUS Health Management Directive No. 0006, "ContrIbutions/Donations to Other Organizations". Before any donation is made, two criteria are addressed: (1) Organization Test and (2) IRS Test. The organization test ensures that donations are exclusively for charitable, scientific, educational, and religious purposes, and in furtherance of our purpose of supporting the healing ministry of Jesus Christ and advancing, promoting, and supporting the healthcare ministries of the Sponsoring Congregations. Contributions can be made to support CHRISTUS System members and to other qualifying tax-exempt organizations, particularly those designed to support and benefit the poor and underserved. The organization considered for donations must be an IRS Section 501(c)(3) organization and documentation to that effect obtained. To satisfy the IRS test, contributions given must be dedicated to achieving charitable purposes not for personal benefit, but for public benefit. Contributions are prohibited to organizations that contribute to political campaigns, candidates for office, or conduct more than incidental lobbying. Documentation must support how the donation meets organizational purposes and furtherance of mission. Donations should be modest in scope. The filing organization provides indigent funding grants to the counties in which it serves via grants paid to other hospitals and healthcare organizations located within such counties. This charitable donation helps relieve the additional expense of healthcare for the indigent population within our communities that the filing organization may not directly serve in one of its hospitals. This is a result of our mission to extend the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, especially to the poor and underserved.Explanation

ExplanationDIRECTORS AND EX-OFFICIO DIRECTORS PROVIDE THEIR SERVICES AS MEMBERS OF THE BOARD WITHOUT COMPENSATION OR BENEFITS. ANY COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS DISCLOSED FOR SUCH PERSONS IS EARNED IN THE RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL'S ROLE AS AN OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE OF THE ORGANIZATION, NOT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL'S ROLE AS A BOARD MEMBER OR DIRECTOR. OFFICERS, KEY EMPLOYEES AND HIGHEST PAID EMPLOYEES ARE FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES. BOARD MEMBERS SPEND TIME AS NEEDED FOR BOARD MEETINGS AND FUNCTIONS. TAXABLE COMPENSATION WAS REPORTED TO VARIOUS OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS RELATED TO COMPANION TRAVEL TO CHRISTUS MEETINGS. YANG-TZE BROUSSARD, MD RECEIVED $217,620 FOR ON-CALL PHYSICIAN SERVICES. HE RECEIVED NO COMPENSATION FOR SERVICES AS A DIRECTOR. RELATED ORG DETERMINING CEO/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S COMPENSATION FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART I, QUESTION 3 THE FILING ORGANIZATION'S CEO/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR IS AN EMPLOYEE OF CHRISTUS HEALTH, A RELATED ORGANIZATION. AS A RESULT, COMPENSATION IS ESTABLISHED AT THE CHRISTUS HEALTH LEVEL AND THE FILING ORGANIZATION DOES NOT HAVE A ROLE IN IMPLEMENTING THE METHODS USED TO ESTABLISH COMPENSATION OR IN DETERMINING CEO/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION. CHRISTUS HEALTH USES AN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE TO ESTABLISH AND APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF THE FILING ORGANIZATION'S CEO/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. THIS COMMITTEE USES AN INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT WHO PERFORMS BI-ANNUAL COMPENSATION SURVEY. SEVERANCE PAYMENTS FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART I, QUESTION 4A KAREN MIXON RECEIVED $80,542 IN SEVERANCE PAYMENT DURING CALENDAR YEAR 2012.

SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART I, QUESTION 4B DEFERRED COMPENSATION INCLUDES EXECUTIVE DEFERRED INCOME ACCOUNT, SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AND RETENTION PLAN, AND PENSION RESTORATION PLAN. ESTIMATED PENSION BENEFITS WERE CALCULATED BASED ON THE PROVISIONS OF THE CURRENT PENSION RESTORATION PLAN AT 6% OF PENSIONABLE EARNINGS WHICH ARE OVER THE IRS LEGISLATIVE COMPENSATION LIMIT. SOME ASSOCIATES ARE GRANDFATHERED UNDER AN EARLIER LEGACY PENSION PLAN. IF A PARTICIPANT HAS PROTECTED PENSION BENEFITS UNDER SUCH LEGACY PLANS, HIS/HER PERCENTAGE IS ZERO UNDER THE SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AND RETENTION PLAN, AS THE PROTECTED BENEFIT IS ALREADY EQUAL TO OR BETTER THAN CURRENT MARKET.

The Executive Compensation Committee is composed of individuals who have no conflict of interest with the compensation arrangements at hand. The Executive Compensation Committee of the CHRISTUS Health Board selects an independent external firm to perform an independent compensation review, to ensure that all compensation is reasonable and comparable to other similarly situated organizations, for similarly qualified persons in functionally comparable positions, and to provide supporting information of compensation decisions. On an annual basis the external consultant: 1. develops the merit increase recommendations for all Designated System Executives based on market comparability. 2. recommends the changes in the Compensation Structure (grades) based on the market changes. 3. completes a review and evaluation of newly created positions to recommend a grade placement to the Committee for its discussion and approval. On a bi-annual basis, the external consultant completes a detailed review of all other Designated System Executives' compensation and benefits. This group includes all top management officials, other officers and key leaders of the organization. The review includes recommendations to the Committee on any changes necessary in either specific compensation or compensation structure to ensure market competitiveness, reasonableness and internal equity. Upon recommendations from the independent external firm, the Executive Compensation Committee makes final compensation decisions. Additionally, the Executive Compensation Committee reviews all compensation payments for excess benefit transactions. The discussion and decisions of the Committee are documented and formalized in the Committee minutes and maintained on record. The filing organization determines the compensation of the Secretary by use of an independent and external consultant. The consultant helps determine pay rates for the associates of the filing organization, taking into account market data and shift differential. The compensation rates are approved by the filing organization. Based on the aforementioned procedure, the Secretary's compensation is not reviewed by a compensation committee.
