The Health Services Cost Review Commission, (HSCRC) determines payment through a rate-setting process and all payors, including governmental payors, pay the same amount for the same services delivered at the same hospital. Maryland's unique all-payor system includes a method for referencing Uncompensated Care in each payors' rates, which does not enable Maryland hospitals to breakout any directed offsetting revenue related to Uncompensated Care. Community benefit expenses are equal to Medicaid revenues in Maryland, as such, the net effect is zero. The exception to this is the impact on the hospital of its share of the Medicaid assessment. In recent years, the state of Maryland has closed fiscal gaps in the state Medicaid budget by assessing hospitals through the rate-setting system. Part VI - States Where Community Benefit Report Filed MD Part VI - Affilated Health Care System Roles and Promotion Meritus Healthcare Foundation - 501(c)(3) - provides fund development, financial & other assistance to MMC.

MMC nutrition center staff are used for the coordination and support of the weekly Farmer's Market held at the medical center. The Care Managment staff spend time attending the outreach social planning meeting. Lastly, MMC staff spend time in coordinating and distributing materials for the annual United Way campaign. Part VI - Community Information MMC is the largest healthcare provider in Western MD, located at the crossroads of western MD, southern PA, and the eastern panhandle of WV. MMC is an acute care hospital with 265 single-patient rooms providing services including a soecial care nursery, a designated trauma center, a primary stroke center, a wound center, and a designated cardiac interventional center. As the leading provider of health care services in the tri-state region, MMC's primary service area is Washington County, MD including primary service area zip codes 21740, 21742, 21795, 21713 and 21783 - with residents of that county making up the majority of the hospital's customers - while also serving residents of Frederick County, MD; Franklin County, PA; Fulton County, PA; Morgan County, WV; Jefferson County, WV; and Berkeley County, WV.Within MMC's community service benefit area; the total population is 147,430 with 74,877 male residents and 72,553 female residents; median age is 39.7; median household income is $52,857; percentage of households with incomes below the federal poverty guidelines is 11.2%; the percentage of uninsured people by county is 18.5%; percentage of Medicaid recipients by County is 21%; and the life expectancy by county is 78.4. Part VI - Patient Education of Eligibility for Assistance Meritus Medical Center informs patients and/or their families of the hospital's financial assistance policy by providing a copy of the policy and contact information as part of the intake process. The financial assistance policy and contact information is posted in the admitting area, emergency room and other areas throughout the facility where eligible patients are likely to present. When applicable, a representative of the hospital discusses the availability of financial assistance as well as Medicaid and other governmental benefits with patients or their families. The hospital makes every effort to inform patients of this policy throughout their visit.MMC follows the Maryland Hospital Association's Standards for Financial Assistance for Maryland. MMC will provide 100 percent free hospital care for patients below 150 percent of Federal Poverty levels and who have less than $10,000 in net assets. When a patient's income and/or net assets does not qualify them for 100 percent financial assistance, they may be eligible to qualify for financial assistance based on a sliding scale. MMC will consider the size of a patient's bill relative to their ability to pay in determining financial assistance options, which could include payment plans. MMC will grant financial assistance for services determined to be medically necessary. Part VI - Needs Assessment Meritus Medical Center completed a commmunity health needs assessment in the Spring of 2009. It was sent to major community agencies to determine what they knew and perceived to be the most important healthcare needs of Washington County residents. Twenty agencies were surveyed, including the healthcare organizations, the United Way, and the Department of Social Services. Internal healthcare providers were also surveyed; some of them included the healthcare management department, medical director of internal medicine, and the community health education and outreach department.Respondents completed a survey which asked them to identify: the three most important health needs they have encountered; which ones they have designated as current fiscal year priorities; and to name any other agencies that should be included in the survey.Respondents listed the following as the most important health needs: mental health services, services for the elderly, dental services, and obesity.They identified three that are fiscal year priorities: mental health, dental services, and substance abuse.In response to the community needs assessment completed in 2009, MMC responded to the identified needs during fiscal year 2012. The first need identified was to improve access to adolescent mental health and social functioning. MMC provided clinical oversight and board membership to Potomac Case Management in order to help advocate and ensure that adequate mental health services are being provided in Washington County. Secondly MMC increased awareness of senior services. Seniors living in the Washington County region were identified as having a lack of awareness of health issues unique to an aging population. Through community health fairs, screenings, and educational events, MMC provides the information necessary to heighten awareness of senior issues and assist seniors in identifying where help can be obtained.A third identified area was the need to decrease adult obesity. MMC provided BMI screenings and nutritional information at community educational events and health fairs to increase awareness and knowledge of elevated body mass index and potential health risks. Participants were able to identify the need to make lifestyle changes and where such assistance could be obtained. 610 persons completed obesity screening and education for fiscal year 2012.In compliance with IRC Section 501R, MMC is in the process of finalizing, applying and implementing its 2012 Community Health Needs Assessment and related report for Washington County, MD. This report includes a comprehensive review and analysis of the data regarding health issues and needs of Washington County overall. More importantly, the implementation plan developed by MMC will address how the Medical Center continues providing top quality care to all individuals in its service area. This study was conducted to identify the health needs and issues of the region and to provide useful information to health care providers, policy makers, collaborative groups, social service agencies, community groups and organizations, churches, businesses, and consumers who are interested in improving the health status of the community and region. The results enable the health system and other providers to more strategically establish priorities, develop interventions and commit resources to improve the health status of the region.Improving the health of the community is foundational to the mission of Meritus Medical Center and should be an important focus for everyone in the county, individually and collectively. In addition to the education, patient care and program interventions provided through the health system, we hope the information in this study will encourage additional activities and collaborative efforts to improve the health status of the community. The Top Priorities Identified in the study include: 1. Obesity and physical inactivity 2. Diabetes 3. Heart disease and smoking cessation 4. Cancer 5. Behavioral health 6. Teen pregnancyThe Top Initiatives for Meritus Medical Center include: * Reducing obesity and physical inactivity * Improving the management of diabetes illness with better access to care and education * Reducing heart disease and smoking * Improving access to cancer treatment and research * Improving behavioral health access to care and reducing ED visits * Reducing incidence of teen pregnancyThe Top Initiatives for the Washington County Health Improvement Coalition include: * Reducing diabetes mortality through community case management and improved access to care * Decreasing behavioral health Emergency Department visits through better care coordination and community education * Decrease heart disease and address lifestyle behaviors such as physical inactivity and smoking cessation Part III, Line 9b - Provisions On Collection Practices For Qualified Patients Meritus Medical Center is committed to providing quality health care for all patients regardless of their inability to meet the associated financial obligation and without discrimination on the grounds of race, color, national origin or creed. Financial assistance can be offered during, or after services are rendered. The financial assistance procedures are designed to assist individuals who qualify for less than full coverage under available federal, state and local medical assistance programs, but whom residual "self-pay" balances exceed their own ability to pay.Meritus Medical Center informs patients and/or their families of the hospital's financial assistance policy by providing a copy of the policy and contact information as part of the intake process. The financial assistance policy and contact information is posted in the admitting area, emergency room and other areas throughout the facility where eligible patients are likely to present. When applicable, a representative of the hospital discusses the availability of financial assistance as well as Medicaid and other governmental benefits with patients or their families. The hospital makes every effort to inform patients of this policy throughout their visit.A financial application that has been approved for financial assistance will remain eligible for a period of six months. Patients or guarantors incurring accounts after the six month period will be required to reapply, so that any changes in their financial status can be reassessed. Accounts receivable accounts approved for financial assistance will be reconciled by the Finance Department at fiscal year endand reported annually to the Health Services Cost Review Commission of the State of Maryland. If financial assistance is denied, a payment arrangement will be obtained on any balance due by the patient or the guarantor by a Patient Financial Services Representative. Part III, Line 4 - Bad Debt Expense Meritus Medical Center (MMC) provides an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the unwillingness or inability of patients to make payments for services. The allowance is determined by analyzing specific accounts and historical data and trends.
