SETON SPONSORED THE 2011 AUSTIN RACE FOR THE CURE.COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIESCOMMUNITY BUILDING OBJECTIVE: SETON HAS PROVIDED FUNDING FOR THE FOLLOWING INITIATIVES RELATED TO THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT OBJECTIVE DESCRIBED ABOVE. SETON DID NOT AWARD THESE FUNDS FOR MARKETING PURPOSES, TO INCREASE THE REFERRAL OF PATIENTS WITH THIRD-PARTY INSURANCE COVERAGE, IN FULFILLMENT OF REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS OR CURRENT STANDARD OF CARE OR TO BENEFIT PERSONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ORGANIZATION.PHYSICAL IMPROVEMENTS AND HOUSINGNEED: THE MEDIAN INCOME IN THE AUSTIN MSA IS $56,783, AND ONE IN FIVE HOUSEHOLDS MAKE LESS THAN $25,000 PER YEAR. BECAUSE OF THE ATTRACTIVENESS OF THE AUSTIN AREA, HOUSING COSTS IN THE COMMUNITY HAVE SOARED. IN THE PAST TEN YEARS, THE MEDIAN PRICE VALUE OF A SINGLE-FAMILY HOME HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED FROM $94,000 IN 2003 TO $198,250 IN MID-2012. APARTMENT RENTALS ARE MORE AFFORDABLE BUT HAVE ALSO INCREASED BY 32% OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS AND ARE NOW 95% OCCUPIED, SO THAT RENTERS HAVE FEW OPTIONS IF LIVING CONDITIONS ARE POOR. THESE CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE RESULTED IN FAMILIES LIVING IN OVERCROWDED, DETERIORATING APARTMENTS IN CRIME-RIDDEN NEIGHBORHOODS. REQUIRED TO SPEND THE MAJORITY OF THEIR INCOME ON HOUSING, THEY HAVE LITTLE MONEY REMAINING TO PAY FOR OTHER BASIC NECESSITIES, SUCH AS FOOD, HEALTHCARE, AND CLOTHING. LOSS OF A JOB OR ANY UNEXPECTED EXPENSES, SUCH AS A HIGH MEDICAL BILL, COULD MEAN AN INABILITY TO MAKE RENT, FORCING FAMILIES TO LIVE IN UNSTABLE TRANSITIONAL HOUSING OR, WORSE, ON THE STREETS.IN ADDITION, THE HOMES THAT LOW-INCOME HOMEOWNERS WERE ABLE TO AFFORD 10 OR 20 YEARS AGO ARE BECOMING INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN. AS MANY AS 21% OF TEXAS HOMEOWNERS ARE LOW-INCOME RESIDENTS WITH DISPROPORTIONATELY HIGH HOUSING COSTS. A THIRD OF LOW-INCOME HOMEOWNERS HAVE PAID OFF THEIR MORTGAGES, BUT STILL PAY MORE THAN 35% OF THEIR INCOME ON PROPERTY TAXES ALONE. THIS LEAVES LITTLE MONEY FOR OTHER BASIC NECESSITIES AND MOST OFTEN NO MONEY AT ALL FOR HOME REPAIRS. YEARS OF DEFERRED MAINTENANCE CAUSE COMMUNITIES TO DETERIORATE INTO SQUALOR.RELATED SETON GRANTEE(S): -SMITHVILLE COMMUNITY CLINIC: SETON PROVIDED $10,000 START-UP FUNDS.-VINCARE SERVICES: PROVIDES AFFORDABLE HOUSING TO MOTHERS AND CHILDREN WHO MAY OTHERWISE BE HOMELESS.

PART VI, LINE 2: NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROCESSSETON HEALTHCARE (SETON) CONDUCTS A COMMUNITY HEALTH CARE NEEDS ASSESSMENT ONCE EVERY THREE YEARS, WITH UPDATES MADE ANNUALLY FOR SETON'S INTEGRATED STRATEGIC OPERATION FINANCIAL PLAN. THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT STEERING COMMITTEE IS THE ASSESSMENT'S SPONSORING ENTITY. THE ASSESSMENT IS CONDUCTED BY SETON'S IN-HOUSE PLANNING STAFF, USING A VARIETY OF RESOURCES, INCLUDING THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF STATE HEALTH SERVICES, THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU AND OTHER REFERENCE MATERIAL. A COMPREHENSIVE OVERVIEW OF THE ASSESSMENT IS MADE TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, THE KEY AUDIENCE FOR THE REPORT.HIGHLIGHTS FROM SETONS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENTMORTALITY RATES FOR CENTRAL TEXAS: WHILE MORTALITY RATES FOR THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE CONTINUE TO DECLINE (MORTALITY RATE FOR POPULATION AS A WHOLE), PREVENTION OPPORTUNITIES ARE STILL PRESENT FOR DEATHS FROM ACCIDENTS, SUICIDE, CANCER AND CARDIO-VASCULAR AND CEREBRAL-VASCULAR DISEASES. PREMATURE MORTALITY RATES ARE HIGHER IN THE MORE RURAL EAST AND WESTERN REGIONS OF CENTRAL TEXAS. IN ADDITION:-CANCER AND CARDIAC DISEASE ACCOUNT FOR NEARLY HALF OF THE DEATHS IN CENTRAL TEXAS.-ACCIDENTS, STROKE AND CHRONIC LOWER RESPIRATORY DISEASES TOGETHER CAUSE ANOTHER 20 PERCENT OF THE DEATHS.-DOWNWARD TRENDS ARE EVIDENT IN MORTALITY RATES IN CANCER AND DISEASES OF THE HEART.-ACCIDENTS ARE THE FOURTH HIGHEST CAUSE OF DEATH IN CENTRAL TEXAS, TRADING PLACES WITH CEREBROVASCULAR DISEASES. COMMUNICABLE DISEASES: SEVERAL KEY INDICATORS ARE WORTH NOTING:-DROPPING AIDS INCIDENCE RATES TIED WITH INCREASING HIV PREVALENCE SUGGESTS THAT MEDICATION AND EDUCATION ARE MAKING HIV/AIDS MORE OF A CHRONIC DISEASE AFFECTING FEWER NEW PEOPLE EACH YEAR.-SYPHILIS INCIDENCE RATES ARE INCREASING.-TB INCIDENCE RATES ARE INCREASING.TEEN PREGNANCY: RATES ARE RELATIVELY STABLE AT LESS THAN 35 PER 1,000 TEENAGED FEMALES, AND BELOW NATIONAL AVERAGES. LIFESTYLE HEATH INDICATORS: THESE INCLUDE:-THE PERCENTAGE OF CENTRAL TEXANS REPORTING THAT THEY ARE OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE IS INCREASING.-SLIGHTLY FEWER CENTRAL TEXANS REPORT THAT THEY SMOKE.-DIABETES IS INCREASING THROUGHOUT THE REGION.ACCESS TO PHYSICIANS-THE REGION IS FACING A SHORTAGE OF ALMOST 200 PHYSICIANS IN 2012. THIS SHORTAGE COULD GROW TO ALMOST 900 PHYSICIANS BY 2016. THIS SHORTAGE CONSIDERS THE SERVICE PROVIDED BY MID-LEVEL PROVIDERS SUCH AS ADVANCED PRACTICE NURSES AND PHYSICIAN ASSISTANTS. THE SHORTAGE IS DRIVEN BY SEVERAL FACTORS: INCREASING DEMAND DUE TO AGING OF THE POPULATION, POPULATION GROWTH, COMBINED WITH THE AGING AND EXPECTED RETIREMENT OF THE CURRENT PHYSICIAN SUPPLY. -A PROVIDER SHORTAGE IS FELT NOT ONLY IN THE POPULATION AT LARGE, BUT AMONG THE OLDER RESIDENTS OF THE AREA AS WELL. PROVIDERS ACCEPTING MEDICARE CONTINUE TO DECLINE.-SETON IS CLOSELY MONITORING THE PHYSICIAN SHORTAGE AND THE NEED FOR PHYSICIANS DETERMINED BY EACH HOSPITAL'S PROJECTED VOLUMES. SETON IS FOCUSING ON STRATEGIES TO INCREASE THE SUPPLY THROUGH MEDICAL EDUCATION, INCREASING THE NUMBER OF EMPLOYED PHYSICIANS, AND ACTIVE RECRUITING OF PRIVATE PHYSICIANS.

SETON ALSO PROVIDES HOME HEALTH CARE AND HOSPICE CARE IN RURAL BURNET/HIGHLAND LAKES, AS WELL AS HOME HEALTH AND NURSING HOME CARE IN SMITHVILLE (BASTROP COUNTY).THE REMAINING GENERAL MEDICAL-SURGICAL HOSPITALS (SETON NORTHWEST, SETON SOUTHWEST, SETON WILLIAMSON, AND SETON HAYS) SERVE RESIDENTS FROM A SMALLER AREA SURROUNDING EACH FACILITY. HOWEVER, WILLIAMSON AND HAYS HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY AND CLINICAL CAPABILITY TO SERVE A WIDER AREA AS THE DEMANDS OF THE REGION INCREASE DUE TO POPULATION GROWTH AND AGING OF THE POPULATION.SETON PROVIDES AMBULATORY CARE VIA THREE SAFETY NET COMMUNITY CLINICS IN AUSTIN AND A NETWORK OF RURAL HEALTH CLINICS IN BOTH THE EAST AND WEST PARTS OF THE SERVICE AREA. SETON IS DEVELOPING A SYSTEM OF PHYSICIAN PRACTICES WITH BOTH PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS AND SUB-SPECIALISTS.

SEVERAL OF THESE HOSPITALS HAVE AFFILIATION AGREEMENTS WITH ONE OF THE LARGER SYSTEMS OR ARE IN NEGOTIATIONS FOR AFFILIATION, MERGER OR ACQUISITION.POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS:THE CENTRAL TEXAS REGION IS COMPARATIVELY YOUNG, BUT GROWING OLDER. IN 2010, THE LARGEST PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION - 47.3% - WERE AGED 15 TO 44 YEARS; THAT PERCENTAGE IS EXPECTED TO DROP TO 43.9% IN 2020. IN 2010, PERSONS 65 YEARS AND OLDER CONSTITUTED 8.6% OF THE POPULATION; BY 2020 THAT DEMOGRAPHIC WILL GROW TO 11.8%. YOUNG PEOPLE FROM INFANT TO 14 YEARS REPRESENT 19.5% OF THE REGION'S POPULATION IN 2010; THEIR SHARE OF THE POPULATION WILL DECREASE TO 17.5% IN 2020. IN 2010, PERSONS AGED 45 TO 64 WERE 24.5% OF THE REGION'S POPULATION; BY 2020, THEY WILL REPRESENT 26.8% OF THE REGION'S POPULATION.THE RURAL AREAS OF THE REGION TEND TO HAVE OLDER POPULATIONS THAN THE URBAN/SUBURBAN CORE. IN THE YEARS AHEAD, THE GROWTH OF OLDER POPULATIONS IN THE REGION WILL PRESENT A MULTITUDE OF CHALLENGES, INCLUDING AN EXPECTED INCREASE IN DEMAND FOR HEALTH CARE SERVICES. THE DIVERSITY OF THE REGION IS INCREASING. NON-HISPANIC ANGLOS ARE 56% OF THE POPULATION IN 2010 AND ARE EXPECTED TO BE LESS THAN HALF OF THE POPULATION WITHIN 10 YEARS. HISPANICS ARE 31% OF THE POPULATION, AND EXPECTED TO BE MORE THAN ONE-THIRD OF THE POPULATION BY 2020.

MOST DETRIMENTAL ECONOMIC EFFECTS ARE READILY APPARENT IN STATISTICS CONCERNING MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME. ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION, MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME IN THE AUSTIN METROPOLITAN REGION DROPPED FROM $63,000 TO $57,000 DURING THE SECOND HALF OF THE DECADE. WHILE TEXAS AND THE U.S. ALSO EXPERIENCED DECLINES IN MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME, NEITHER WAS AS SEVERE AS THE AUSTIN REGION. YET MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME IN THE AUSTIN METROPOLITAN REGION REMAINS MORE THAN 16% HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL FIGURE AND MORE THAN 22% HIGHER THAN THE TEXAS FIGURE.THE PERCENTAGE OF HOUSEHOLDS IN THE REGION WHO ARE LIVING BELOW THE U.S. POVERTY LEVEL IS 8.4%. IN ADDITION, MORE THAN 22% OF THOSE UNDER AGE 65 IN CENTRAL TEXAS ARE UNINSURED, CREATING SIGNIFICANT BARRIERS TO ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE. IN 2007, 22% OF ALL TEXAS CHILDREN WERE UNINSURED, COMPARED TO 11% PERCENT NATIONALLY. MORE THAN HALF OF UNINSURED CHILDREN ARE ELIGIBLE FOR PUBLIC PROGRAMS, BUT ARE NOT ENROLLED.DATA REGARDING INPATIENT DISCHARGES IN THE REGION ILLUSTRATES THE IMPACT THESE INSURANCE COVERAGE RATES HAVE ON SETON'S OPERATIONS. SETON SERVES A DISPROPORTIONATE MARKET SHARE OF MEDICAID AND SELF-PAY PATIENTS. WHILE THE HOSPITAL SYSTEM SERVES 41.4% OF THE TOTAL INPATIENT NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY, IT ALSO SUPPORTS 45.9% OF MEDICAID PATIENTS AND 56.8% OF SELF-PAY PATIENTS. SPECIFICALLY:- MEDICARE REIMBURSES FOR 38% OF INPATIENT DISCHARGES IN CENTRAL TEXAS. WITH AN AGING POPULATION, THE PERCENTAGE OF PATIENTS COVERED BY MEDICARE WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE.- MEDICAID REIMBURSES FOR 15.5% OF INPATIENT DISCHARGES IN THE REGION, WHILE COMMERCIAL INSURANCE COVERS 33.4% OF DISCHARGES. EMPLOYER-SPONSORED INSURANCE HAD BEEN DECLINING OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS.- SELF-PAY AND "OTHER" ACCOUNTS FOR 13.3% OF CENTRAL TEXAS RESIDENT DISCHARGES.

LEADING COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS IN THE COMMUNITY DESCRIBED BELOW ARE JUST A FEW EXAMPLES OF THE COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATIONS THE SETON FAMILY OF HOSPITALS HAS CHAMPIONED IN CENTRAL TEXAS. CHILDREN'S OPTIMAL HEALTH (COH) IN 2006, SETON INVITED COMMUNITY LEADERS TO DISCUSS HOW THEIR ORGANIZATIONS COULD WORK TOGETHER TO OPTIMIZE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF CHILDREN IN CENTRAL TEXAS. EIGHTY-FOUR AGENCIES CAME TOGETHER INFORMALLY AND IDENTIFIED FOUR AREAS OF FOCUS: LINKING AND LEVERAGING OUR EXISTING RESOURCES; COORDINATING COMMUNITY MESSAGING AND EDUCATION; USING TECHNOLOGY; AND EXAMINING RESEARCH AND BEST PRACTICES FOR IDEAS TO USE IN SOLVING COMMUNITY PROBLEMS. IN 2008, SETON AND FOUR OTHER CHARTER MEMBERS COMMITTED TO ANNUAL DUES OF $35,000 TO FUND THE INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDED TO RUN A NEW ORGANIZATION. THE DUES REMAINED UNCHANGED IN FY12. THROUGH A COMMITMENT TO SHARED DATA, COLLABORATION AND ONGOING COMMUNICATION, COH IS USING VISUAL IMAGES TO INFORM POLICY, IMPROVE OPERATIONS, PROMOTE RESEARCH AND MOBILIZE THE COMMUNITY TO BETTER THE LIVES OF OUR CHILDREN AND YOUTH. IN FY12 COH HOSTED THREE COMMUNITY SUMMITS TO CREATE AN OPPORTUNITY TO IDENTIFY NEW PROJECTS, SHARE ITS COMPLETED MAPS AND IDENTIFY ACTION STEPS FOR COMMUNITY CHANGE: -OCTOBER 2011: CENTRAL TEXAS AFTERSCHOOL NETWORK (CTAN MAP REPORT) BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS PRESENTATION AND YOUNG CHILDREN VOLUME II, UNITED WAY CAPITAL AREA SUCCESS BY 6 PARTNERSHIP COMMUNITY PRESENTATION. -MARCH 2012: TRANSPORTATION RELATED CHILD INJURY SUMMIT -MAY 2012: HAYS CISD CHILD OBESITY SUMMIT THE INTEGRATED CARE COLLABORATION (ICC) IN 1997, SETON LED THE FORMATION OF AN ALLIANCE OF COMMUNITY PROVIDERS FOR THE MEDICALLY INDIGENT, INCLUDING HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS, GOVERNMENT ENTITIES AND VOLUNTEER CLINICS. KNOWN AS THE INTEGRATED CARE COLLABORATION OR ICC, THE GROUP'S GOAL WAS TO WORK TOGETHER TO INCREASE ACCESS, IMPROVE QUALITY AND FIND CREATIVE FINANCING SOLUTIONS FOR THE PROVISION OF HEALTH CARE FOR THE REGION'S UNINSURED. TODAY, MEMBERS OF THE ICC INCLUDE VIRTUALLY ALL SAFETY NET PROVIDERS WITHIN WILLIAMSON, TRAVIS AND HAYS COUNTIES. SETON HELPED SECURE THE ORGANIZATION'S FIRST GRANT AND PROVIDED STAFF TO DEVELOP AND LAUNCH THE COLLABORATION. THE ICC HAS SINCE BECOME ONE OF THE MOST RESPECTED AND INNOVATIVE ORGANIZATIONS OF ITS KIND IN THE NATION. SUPPORTED BY GRANTS FROM FEDERAL AND PRIVATE CHARITY ORGANIZATIONS, AS WELL AS CONTINUED SUPPORT FROM THE SETON FAMILY OF HOSPITALS AND OTHER ICC MEMBERS, THIS UNIQUE COLLABORATION STIMULATES CREATIVE THINKING FOR MANAGING HEALTH CARE FOR UNINSURED CENTRAL TEXANS THROUGH SHARED DATA, MEDICAL RECORDS AND ENROLLMENT CRITERIA. DURING FY12 THE ICC'S ICARE SYSTEM CAPTURED DATA ON 1,223,849 ENCOUNTERS WITH 321,019 UNIQUE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED INDIVIDUALS. WHILE THIS WAS AN 87.5% INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF ENCOUNTERS FROM FY11, IT REPRESENTED A 20% DECREASE IN THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS SERVED BY ICC PARTICIPATING MEMBERS. SETON CONTRIBUTED $1.1 MILLION TO THE ICC IN FY12. PROJECT ACCESS: THE TRAVIS COUNTY MEDICAL SOCIETY, THE SETON FAMILY OF HOSPITALS AND OTHER MEMBERS OF THE ICC HAVE INITIATED A COORDINATED SYSTEM OF VOLUNTEER DOCTORS WHO WORK WITH OTHER LOCAL PROVIDERS TO PROVIDE MEDICAL, HOSPITAL, DIAGNOSTIC AND PHARMACY ASSISTANCE FOR THE UNINSURED IN TRAVIS COUNTY. SETON HELPED SECURE A GRANT TO CREATE THE PROGRAM. AS OF JUNE 2012, 1,050 VOLUNTEER PHYSICIANS WERE PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM. PATIENT PRESCRIPTION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM: IMPROVING ACCESS TO MEDICATIONS FOR PATIENTS WAS KEY TO BOTH SETON AND THE ICC. AS A RESULT, SETON SELECTED A SOFTWARE PROGRAM THAT IS NOW SHARED BY ALL ICC PARTNERS AND HELPS TO QUALIFY UNINSURED PATIENTS TO RECEIVE FREE MEDICATIONS FROM PARTICIPATING PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES. THIS PROGRAM IS KNOWN AS THE PATIENT PRESCRIPTION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM OR PPAP. SETON ALSO PROVIDES ASSISTANCE TO UNINSURED PATIENTS WITH THE OFTEN TEDIOUS AND COMPLEX PAPERWORK REQUIRED BY THE DRUG COMPANIES TO RECEIVE THESE FREE MEDICATIONS. PATIENTS BENEFIT FROM REDUCED COSTS AND ULTIMATELY BETTER HEALTH. ICC PARTNERS ARE ABLE TO EXTEND CHARITY SERVICES FURTHER BECAUSE THEY NO LONGER HAVE TO COVER THE COSTS OF MEDICATIONS FOR THESE PATIENTS. IN FY12, MORE THAN $12 MILLION IN PRESCRIPTION DRUGS WAS DONATED THROUGH THE PPAP, A 58% INCREASE FROM FY11. NURSE TRIAGE CALL CENTER SETON'S NURSE TRIAGE CALL CENTER MAKES REGISTERED NURSES AVAILABLE AROUND THE CLOCK 24-HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK FREE OF CHARGE TO ASSIST CALLERS WITH URGENT CARE NEEDS AND SCHEDULE DOCTORS' APPOINTMENTS TO AVOID UNNEEDED EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS. THE CALL CENTER NURSES ARE ABLE TO SCHEDULE SAME AND NEXT-DAY APPOINTMENTS FOR CALLERS AT PARTICIPATING ICC CLINICS. THE CALL CENTER RECEIVED MORE THAN 82,000 CALLS DURING FY12. NURSES WERE ABLE TO REDIRECT 12.2% OF CALLERS TO HOME-BASED SELF-CARE AND 30.2% TO A PRIMARY CARE APPOINTMENT THE FOLLOWING DAY. IN ADDITION, MORE THAN 13% OF THE CALLERS WERE ABLE TO RECEIVE GENERAL HEALTHCARE INFORMATION AS APPROPRIATE. HEALTH ALLIANCE FOR AUSTIN MUSICIANS THE CENTRAL TEXAS AREA HAS A THRIVING LIVE MUSIC SCENE, WHICH IS A SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTOR TO THE LOCAL ECONOMY. FOR SEVERAL YEARS, MUSICIAN ADVOCATES IN AUSTIN HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR WAYS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO CARE FOR AREA MUSICIANS WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR HEALTH INSURANCE. SETON, THE SIMS FOUNDATION AND THE ST. DAVIDS FOUNDATION FORMED A UNIQUE COLLABORATION TO ADDRESS THIS NEED. THE RESULTING HEALTH ALLIANCE FOR AUSTIN MUSICIANS NOW PROVIDES ACCESS TO PRIMARY HEALTH CARE, DIAGNOSIS AND MEDICAL TREATMENT THROUGH SETON, DENTAL SERVICES THROUGH A COLLABORATION OF THE CAPITAL AREA DENTAL FOUNDATION AND ST. DAVID'S FOUNDATION AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES THROUGH SIMS. IN JUNE 2012, 1,542 LOCAL MUSICIANS WERE ENROLLED FOR SERVICES THROUGH SETON'S COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS AS PART OF THE HEALTH ALLIANCE FOR AUSTIN MUSICIANS, A 30% INCREASE FROM THE PRIOR YEAR. DELL CHILDREN'S MEDICAL CENTER OF CENTRAL TEXAS/AISD STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES THE DELL CHILDREN'S MEDICAL CENTER OF CENTRAL TEXAS, A MEMBER OF THE SETON FAMILY OF HOSPITALS, PROVIDES HEALTH SERVICES FOR APPROXIMATELY 87,000 PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS IN 116 SCHOOLS THROUGH A GROUND-BREAKING PARTNERSHIP WITH THE AUSTIN INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT (AISD). THE PROGRAM COVERS PREVENTION, WELLNESS SERVICES, STATE-MANDATED SCREENINGS, IN-SCHOOL MEDICATION, INJURED CHILD CARE AND MANAGEMENT OF CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS. IT USES A UNIQUE SOFTWARE PROGRAM THAT FACILITATES COMMUNICATION AND COLLECTS DATA TO IMPROVE SERVICES. THE PROGRAM IDENTIFIES UNINSURED CHILDREN WHO NEED ADDITIONAL MEDICAL CARE AND CONNECTS THEM WITH CARE PROVIDERS. THE STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES PROGRAM WAS THE FIRST OF ITS KIND AND HAS BEEN REPLICATED IN SCHOOLS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. THE ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON FOUNDATION GAVE THE PROGRAM SPECIAL NATIONAL RECOGNITION. DURING FY12, 6,706 CHILDREN WERE VACCINATED BY THE CHILDREN'S/AISD STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES IMMUNIZATION TEAM. SETON CARE PLUS SETON CARE PLUS CREATES A MANAGED CARE MODEL FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID, THE CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM (CHIP) OR THE AUSTIN/TRAVIS COUNTY MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (MAP). JUST AS WITH COMMERCIAL INSURANCE POPULATIONS, USE OF MEDICAL SERVICES BY PROGRAM PATIENTS ARE TRACKED AND MONITORED. FREQUENT USERS OF EMERGENCY OR HOSPITAL SERVICES CAN BE IDENTIFIED AND MANAGED TO ASSURE THEY GET THE CARE THEY NEED AND TO BETTER MANAGE THEIR CONDITIONS IN A LESS EXPENSIVE MANNER. ALTHOUGH THERE IS A COST TO THE SETON FAMILY OF HOSPITALS TO OPERATE THE PROGRAM, THE BENEFITS OF PREVENTING INAPPROPRIATE USE OF EMERGENCY OR HOSPITAL CARE ARE FAR GREATER. DIRECT PATIENT BENEFITS OF THE SETON CARE PLUS PROGRAM INCLUDE PRIMARY CARE, SPECIALTY CARE, INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT HOSPITAL CARE, DIAGNOSTIC SERVICES AND PRESCRIPTION BENEFITS. THE PRESCRIPTION BENEFIT IS A KEY FACTOR IN PREVENTING INAPPROPRIATE ER VISITS AND UNNECESSARY HOSPITALIZATIONS, AS PATIENTS WERE ASSISTED IN APPLYING FOR FREE OR REDUCED MEDICATIONS THROUGH THE PATIENT PHARMACY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. SETON PROVIDED FUNDING FOR 7,006 PRESCRIPTIONS IN FY12 TOTALING $292,448 THROUGH ITS COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE CLINICS. THE FOLLOWING DATA COMPARE THE EXPERIENCE OF PARTICIPANTS IN SETON CARE PLUS WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF MEDICAID BENEFICIARIES ON CERTAIN KEY INDICATORS: UTILIZATION AND EXPENSE COMPARISON SETON CARE PLUS AND NATIONAL MEDICAID BENCHMARK SETON CARE PLUS -PATIENT HOSPITAL DAYS/1000: 153.8 -EMERGENCY VISITS/1000: 266.2 -ANNUAL COST PER MEMBER: $508 TEXAS STAR MEDICAID BENCHMARK -PATIENT HOSPITAL DAYS/1,000: 278.0 -EMERGENCY VISITS/1,000: 643.3 -ANNUAL COST PER MEMBERS: NA IN FY12, SETON CARE PLUS RECORDED A RATE OF 153.8 PATIENT HOSPITAL DAYS PER 1,000 COMPARED TO A TEXAS STAR MEDICAID BENCHMARK RATE OF 278.0 PATIENT HOSPITAL DAYS PER 1,000. SETON CARE PLUS RECORDED 266.2 EMERGENCY VISITS PER 1,000, COMPARED TO A TEXAS STAR MEDICAID BENCHMARK RATE OF 643.3 EMERGENCY VISITS PER 1,000. DISEASE MANAGEMENT FOR PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC CONDITIONS EIGHTY PERCENT OF THE SETON FAMILY OF HOSPITALS' CHARITY CARE DOLLARS ARE CONSUMED BY 20% OF THE CHARITY CARE PATIENTS SERVED BECAUSE THEY HAVE CONDITIONS THAT OFTEN MAKE THEM VERY SICK AND REQUIRE REPEATED ER VISITS, HOSPITALIZATION, SURGERY, DIALYSIS OR STAYS IN INTENSIVE CARE. RECOGNIZING THIS GROWING PROBLEM, SETON HAS INSTITUTED A SERIES OF PROGRAMS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE EXTRA CASE MANAGEMENT ASSISTANCE TO THESE PATIENTS SO THEY CAN BETTER MANAGE THEIR DISEASES. INSURE-A-KID IN 1999, THE MICHAEL AND SUSAN DELL FOUNDATION COLLABORATED WITH THE SETON FAMILY OF HOSPITALS TO CREATE INSURE-A-KID, AN OUTREACH PROGRAM TO PROMOTE AND ENROLL UNINSURED CHILDREN IN LOW-COST CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAMS. TODAY, INSURE-A-KID IS FUNDED BY SETON AND OTHER MEMBERS OF THE ICC AND HAS EXPANDED ITS MISSION TO HELP LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES OBTAIN COVERAGE THROUGH GOVERNMENT INSURANCE PROGRAMS. USING INNOVATIVE WEB-BASED TECHNOLOGY TO SCREEN AND CASE-MANAGE INDIVIDUALS, IN FY12 INSURE-A-KID HELPED ENROLL MORE THAN 5,567 INDIVIDUALS IN CHIP OR MEDICAID COVERAGE. BY ENROLLING INDIVIDUALS ELIGIBLE FOR GOVERNMENT-SPONSORED HEALTH INSURANCE, CHARITY DOLLARS ARE USED MORE EFFICIENTLY FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS WHO MAY HAVE NO OTHER OPTION FOR CARE. TRAUMA CARE TWO OF SETON'S FACILITIES ARE DESIGNATED LEVEL I TRAUMA CENTERS: UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER BRACKENRIDGE FOR ADULT TRAUMA AND DELL CHILDREN'S MEDICAL CENTER FOR PEDIATRIC TRAUMA. THESE ARE THE ONLY LEVEL I TRAUMA CENTERS IN CENTRAL TEXAS. SETON MEDICAL CENTER WILLIAMSON IS A DESIGNATED LEVEL II TRAUMA CENTER. ALL CENTERS PROVIDE TRAUMA CARE TO THE CENTRAL TEXAS COMMUNITY, REGARDLESS OF THE PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY. ADULT TRAUMA SERVICES UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER TRAUMA SERVICES PROVIDED THE FOLLOWING EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES IN FY12 TO THE CENTRAL TEXAS TRAUMA COMMUNITY: CLINICAL CARE UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER BRACKENRIDGE HAD 3,010 TRAUMA ADMISSIONS AND REPORTED A TOTAL OF 15,314 TRAUMA-RELATED VISITS DURING FY12.

THIS REGIONAL EVENT FEATURED NATIONALLY-RECOGNIZED EXPERTS IN TRAUMA AND ACADEMIC MEDICINE, WHO PROVIDED PHYSICIANS, NURSES, ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONALS AND PRE-HOSPITAL PERSONNEL WITH CUTTING EDGE EVIDENCED-BASED KNOWLEDGE RELATED TO THE CARE OF CRITICALLY INJURED PATIENTS IN RURAL, URBAN AND SUBURBAN HOSPITALS. IN ADDITION, SETON WILLIAMSON PROVIDED THREE TRAUMA NURSING CORE COURSE (TNCC) PROVIDER CLASSES TO NURSES IN THE COMMUNITY. IT ALSO PROVIDED SAFETY INFORMATION AT 19 COMMUNITY EVENTS IN FY12. RESEARCH -THE TRAUMA PATIENT POPULATION IS A UNIQUE AREA TO FOCUS INQUIRY FOR RESEARCH ACTIVITIES.
