      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART III, LINE 4: THERE IS NO FOOTNOTE IN THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT DESCRIBES BAD DEBT EXPENSE. HOWEVER, THE FOLLOWING IS THE TEXT OF THE FOOTNOTE TITLED "PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, NET":THE SYSTEM REPORTS PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FOR SERVICES RENDERED AT NET REALIZABLE AMOUNTS FROM THIRD-PARTY PAYERS, PATIENTS AND OTHERS. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE REDUCED BY AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTIBILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE SYSTEM ANALYZES ITS PAST HISTORY AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS DATA ABOUT THESE MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, THE SYSTEM ANALYZES CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND ESTIMATES A PERCENTAGE OF THOSE ACCOUNTS THAT WILL TRANSITION TO SELF-PAY PATIENTS BASED ON HISTORICAL ANALYSIS. THE ESTIMATED PERCENTAGE OF THOSE TRANSITION ACCOUNTS ARE ADDED TO RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS (WHICH INCLUDES BOTH PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE AND PATIENTS WITH DEDUCTIBLE AND COPAYMENT BALANCES DUE FOR WHICH THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE EXISTS FOR PART OF THE BILL). THE SYSTEM RECORDS A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IN THE PERIOD OF SERVICE ON THE BASIS OF ITS PAST EXPERIENCE, WHICH INDICATES THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE STANDARD RATES (OR THE DISCOUNTED RATES IF NEGOTIATED) AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS.PAYMENT FOR SERVICES IS EXPECTED WITHIN THIRTY DAYS OF RECEIPT OF THE BILLING. ACCOUNTS CONSIDERED PAST DUE ARE SENT TO COLLECTION AGENCIES WHEN EXTERNAL COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL. ANY AMOUNTS DEEMED UNCOLLECTIBLE ARE WRITTEN OFF ON A MONTHLY BASIS. THE SYSTEM DOES NOT CHARGE INTEREST ON OUTSTANDING BALANCES OWED.THE FOLLOWING IS THE TEXT OF THE FOOTNOTE TITLED "NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE":NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE IS REPORTED AT THE ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE AMOUNTS FROM PATIENTS, THIRD-PARTY PAYORS, AND OTHERS FOR SERVICES RENDERED, INCLUDING ESTIMATED RETROACTIVE ADJUSTMENTS UNDER REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENTS WITH THIRD-PARTY PAYORS. RETROACTIVE ADJUSTMENTS ARE ACCRUED ON AN ESTIMATED BASIS IN THE PERIOD THE RELATED SERVICES ARE RENDERED AND ADJUSTED IN FUTURE PERIODS AS FINAL SETTLEMENTS ARE DETERMINED.THE FOLLOWING IS THE TEXT OF THE FOOTNOTE TITLED "CHARITY CARE":THE SYSTEM PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. BECAUSE THE SYSTEM DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, THEY ARE NOT REPORTED IN THE STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS.THE SYSTEM IS DEDICATED TO PROVIDING COMPREHENSIVE HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL SEGMENTS OF SOCIETY, INCLUDING THE AGED AND OTHERWISE ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED. IN ADDITION, THE SYSTEM PROVIDES A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY HEALTH SERVICES AT OR BELOW COST.THERE IS LIKELY A PORTION OF THE BAD DEBT THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED COMMUNITY BENEFITS AS SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE LIKELY WOULD HAVE QUALIFIED FOR CHARITY CARE. HOWEVER, THE ORGANIZATION IS UNABLE TO DETERMINE AN ESTIMATED AMOUNT FOR THIS AND HAVE NOT INCLUDED ANY OF THE COST OF BAD DEBTS ON PART III, LINE 3.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART III, LINE 8: THE ORGANIZATION USED VARIOUS WORKSHEETS FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 TO CALCULATE PART III, LINES 5 AND 6. MEDICARE CURRENTLY PAYS CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITALS (CAH) 101% OF ALLOWABLE COSTS. MEDICARE PAYS THE ORGANIZATION'S RURAL HEALTH CLINICS (RHC) AT COST SUBJECT TO CERTAIN LIMITS. THERE IS GENERALLY NO MEDICARE SHORTFALL ON CAH SERVICES. THE SHORTFALL IS MAINLY GENERATED BY NON-RHC PHYSICIAN SERVICES THAT ARE PAID UNDER THE MEDICARE FEE SCHEDULE. MEDICARE SHORTFALLS IN PAYMENT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS IT IS PART OF THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES EVEN IF MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT IS BELOW COST.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART III, LINE 9B: PATIENTS THAT ARE KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE EITHER RECEIVE FREE EMERGENCY AND URGENT CARE IN THE HOSPITAL IF THEY ARE AT OR BELOW 150% OF POVERTY, OR A SLIDING DISCOUNT IF THEY ARE AT OR BELOW 250% OF POVERTY. SHOULD THESE PATIENTS OWE A PORTION OF THEIR BILL, THE ORGANIZATION FOLLOWS THE SAME COLLECTION POLICY AS IT DOES FOR PATIENTS WHO DO NOT QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART VI, LINE 2: THE ORGANIZATION IS GOVERNED BY A VOLUNTEER BOARD OF DIRECTORS WHICH HAS 8 MEMBERS FROM THE COMMUNITY. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ASSISTS HOSPITAL ADMINISTRATION IN IDENTIFYING SERVICES NEEDED BY THE COMMUNITIES SERVED.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART VI, LINE 3: THE BUSINESS OFFICE IS EDUCATED ON HOW TO INFORM PATIENTS ABOUT THE PROCESS OF APPLYING FOR MEDICAID COVERAGE. THE OPPORTUNITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH OUR CHARITY CARE POLICY IS LISTED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S WEB-SITE, AND A STATEMENT ABOUT THIS IS INCLUDED WITH THE FINANCIAL AGREEMENT EACH PATIENT SIGNS AND IS ALSO INCLUDED WITH BILLINGS STATEMENTS SENT TO THE PATIENT.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART VI, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA IS SEWARD COUNTY, NEBRASKA, WHICH HAS A POPULATION OF AROUND 17,000. IT MAINLY PROVIDES PRIMARY CARE SERVICES WITH SOME SPECIALTY CARE OFFERED BY VISITING SPECIALISTS THAT PRACTICE HERE MAINLY OUT OF LINCOLN, NEBRASKA.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART VI, LINE 5: THE ORGANIZATION OFFERS EXTENSIVE HEALTHCARE AND WELLNESS EDUCATION TO THE COMMUNITY ON AN ON-GOING BASIS. THE COSTS FOR THESE SERVICES ARE NOT SEPARATELY IDENTIFIED AS "COMMUNITY BENEFIT" EXPENSES ELSEWHERE IN THIS RETURN. IT IS LIKELY THESE COSTS EXCEED $100,000 PER YEAR, AND THERE IS NO OFFSETTING REVENUE. THE HOSPITAL MAINTAINS AN OPEN MEDICAL STAFF AND HAS A GOVERNING BOARD OF DIRECTORS WHICH ARE ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED. ALL SURPLUS FUNDS ARE USED TO FURTHER THE MISSION OF PROVIDING EXCELLENT HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITIES SERVED.</Explanation>
