Part X	Part X : FIN48 Footnote	The Aroostook Medical Center is a tax-exempt organization pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Tax-exempt organizations could be required to record an obligation for income taxes as the result of a tax position they have historically taken on various tax exposure items including unrelated business income or tax status. Under guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, assets and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to not meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, based upon the technical merits of the position. Estimated interest and penalties, if applicable, related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of income tax expense. The Corporation has evaluated the position taken on its filed tax return. The Corporation has concluded no uncertain income tax positions exist at September 29, 2012. The Corporation's tax years from 2009 through 2012 are open and subject to examination.

Part VI - States Where Community Benefit Report Filed	ME
Part VI - Affilated Health Care System Roles and Promotion	TAMC USES NEEDS ASSESSMENT DATA TO COLLABORATE WITH LOCAL HOSPITALS AND OTHER EMHS MEMBER HOSPITALS TO IDENTIFY AND IMPLEMENT SOLUTIONS TO HEALTH ISSUES INCLUDING CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE, DIABETES, YOUTH OBESITY, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, AND MORE. TAMC COORDINATES EMHS' COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES IN AROOSTOOK COUNTY.
Part VI - Explanation Of How Organization Furthers Its Exempt Purpose	TAMC has strong ties to the Maine Winter Sports Center, an organization committed to making skiing a way of life in Northern Maine. Through direct financial and logistical support, TAMC has made it possible for youth and adults to use local facilities at a discounted rate. Many of the programs supported by TAMC are offered at no cost.TAMC provided over 1600 free flu shots to adults in Aroostook County in 2012, including many who live with chronic diseases, at clinics in Presque Isle, Caribou, Fort Fairfield, Mars Hill, and Ashland. Press releases and other promotional materials for these vaccination clinics encouraged people with chronic diseases to get vaccinated. In response to the high volume of influenza cases seen at the hospital this winter, TAMC held a special flu shot clinic in January to allow adults to get vaccinated for free. Through free flu vaccination, TAMC is helping chronic disease sufferers and others stay healthy.Using the data in the EMHS Community Health Needs Assessment, TAMC collaborates with other hospitals in the EMHS system and with other community organizations on solutions to significant community healthcare problems, including cardiovascular disease, chronic disease self-management, diabetes, youth obesity, sedentary lifestyle and access to primary care providers. TAMC takes the lead role for EMHS in Aroostook County on these issues and EMHS provides support and additional resources as necessary.
Part VI - Community Building Activities	TAMC takes a leadership role in advancing the well-being of the people of our communities. Through public health screenings, educational activities for health professionals and the community, and other activities, we seek to provide the information and tools that the people of Aroostook County need to take charge of their health. TAMC collaborates with several organizations interested in building healthy communities, including Let's Go Aroostook, an initiative that promotes healthy lifestyle choices for children, youth, and adults; the American Cancer Society; local universities and community colleges; and the Maine Winter Sports Center.A component of the Senior Connection program, TAMC holds a monthly educational luncheon for older adults. In order to make the program affordable for all, TAMC heavily subsidizes the cost of the lunch for all participants. Topics include exercise, nutrition, safety, and wellness.TAMC leaders support community and economic development activities through participation on the boards of Aroostook Partnership for Progress, Leaders Encouraging Aroostook Development, United Way of Aroostook, Rotary, the Nordic Heritage Sport Club, and other organizations.

A presentation was made by EMHS staff who were members of the assessment development steering committee providing selected data results, trends over time and the priorities and recommendations as suggested by the research consultants.In addition to the community forums, the entire statewide assessment (both narrative and data sets) were posted to the EMHS website. After the forums, Power Point presentations used at the Forum as well as input collection in the breakout sessions were also posted on the website. Forum participants were encouraged to go to the website to review the assessment in detail, and access the data for local planning. Media releases were also sent to local news outlets in combination with the forums, encouraging new articles on the forum and inviting all members of the public to view the report on the website.Instructions on the website assist viewers to download and/or print sections of the report. Individuals without computer or printer access were provided a phone number where they can request a printed assessment.	Number of Hospital Faciltiy - 0
Part V, Line 4 - List Other Hospital Facilities that Jointly Conducted Needs Assessment	The needs assessment was developed as a statewide collaborative between the state's three largest health systems: EMHS (in central, eastern and northern Maine), MaineGeneral (in central Maine) and MaineHealth (in southern Maine). Multiple collaborators were involved in the dissemination of the assessment findings and establishment of priorities (see Section 5).	Number of Hospital Faciltiy - 0
Part V, Line 3 - Account Input from Person Who Represent the Community	On a statewide basis, the research consultants developed an advisory committee that met two times during the assessment research and drafting of the publication. These individuals represented a broad spectrum of backgrounds, and they are named: Carol Bell, Healthy Maine Partnership Director; Kelly Bentley, Healthy Maine Partnership Director; Gail Dana-Sacco, Wabanaki Center (serving tribal populations); Patricia Hart, Maine Development Foundation; Barbara Leonard, MPH, Maine Health Access Foundation (philanthropic foundation focused on access to care in Maine); Becca Matusovich, Maine Center for Disease Control; Lisa Miller, Bingham Foundation (philanthropic foundation); Dora Ann Mills, MD, Maine Center for Disease Control; Elizabeth Mitchell, Maine Health Management Coalition (representing the state's major employers, insurers and providers); Trish Riley, Governor's Office of Health Policy and Finance (GOHPF); Brian Rines, Advisory Committee for Health System Development (overseen by GOHPF); Rachel Talbot-Ross, Maine Chapter, NAACP; Ted Trainer, Public Health Coordinating Council; Shawn Yardley, City of Bangor, Department of Health and Welfare.

Part V, Line 1j - Description of Other Needs Assessment	1a See Part VI - Community Information.1b The Aroostook Medical Center and its related physician practices utilize extensive electronic medical records, including disease registries, which provide a vast amount of data relative to patients in care. The needs assessment provides a much broader picture of the community as a whole, including the health status of individuals not in care, as well as functional health status and social-demographics (such as employment, income and educational levels). The local units of the state's public health infrastructure (known as Healthy Maine Partnerships) are also integrated into the process so that their data relative to health, environmental and social measures are part of the community dissemination process.1c The Aroostook Medical Center engaged multiple health resource leaders in the community forum invitation list (as described in Section 1g). Additional resources and leaders needed were identified in the breakout sessions (see question for breakout participants, Section 1g). In the hospital's service area, key collaborators going forward will include Healthy Aroostook, Aroostook Area Agency on Aging, school systems, home care agencies, local hospitals, and others.1d-1e-1f EMHS, the parent company of The Aroostook Medical Center, routinely conducts a community health needs assessment (hereafter needs assessment) across the service area of all its member hospitals. The most recent assessment, published in 2011, was conducted under a contract with the University of New England Center for Health Planning, Policy and Research (CHPPR) and the University of Southern Maine's Muskie School for Public Health. Using a methodology developed by CHPPR over decades of work, the assessment integrates primary data from a telephone survey to heads of households with secondary data retrieved from state databases (ED usage, Mortality, Cancer Registry, etc.). That data is reviewed in the context of multiple health related domains to develop a composite view of health status, behavioral risks, and barriers to access and care. Results are compared to national and state benchmarks to produce priorities and recommendations as prepared by the consultants.1g See question #3.1h On a statewide basis, the research consultants developed an advisory committee that met two times during the assessment research and drafting of the publication. These individuals represented a broad spectrum of backgrounds, and they are named: Carol Bell, Healthy Maine Partnership Director; Kelly Bentley, Healthy Maine Partnership Director; Gail Dana-Sacco, Wabanaki Center (serving tribal populations); Patricia Hart, Maine Development Foundation; Barbara Leonard, MPH, Maine Health Access Foundation (philanthropic foundation focused on access to care in Maine); Becca Matusovich, Maine Center for Disease Control; Lisa Miller, Bingham Foundation (philanthropic foundation); Dora Ann Mills, MD, Maine Center for Disease Control; Elizabeth Mitchell, Maine Health Management Coalition (representing the state's major employers, insurers and providers); Trish Riley, Governor's Office of Health Policy and Finance (GOHPF); Brian Rines, Advisory Committee for Health System Development (overseen by GOHPF); Rachel Talbot-Ross, Maine Chapter, NAACP; Ted Trainer, Public Health Coordinating Council; Shawn Yardley, City of Bangor, Department of Health and Welfare. In the local area served by the assessment, multiple parties were engaged in dissemination of the assessment findings and establishment of priorities (see Section 5).Part V, Line 2, Indicate the tax year the hospital facility last conducted a Needs Assessment.As a result of a software defect the 2011 tax year is not populating.
