PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F): THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $ 22540246.

PART II: BRONSON METHODIST HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES GENERALLY FALL WITHIN ONE OF THE THREE AREAS: COMMUNITY SUPPORT, COALITION BUILDING, OR COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT. IN COMMUNITY SUPPORT, BRONSON SUPPORTED EARLY CHILDHOOD LITERACY BY PROVIDING THE FAMILIES OF EVERY NEWBORN A BOOK TO PROMOTE READING; BY TRAINING AREA CLERGY IN PASTORAL CARE FOR ILL AND END-OF-LIFE PATIENTS; BY STAFFING THE COUNTY SAFE KIDS COALITION AND BY OFFERING HEALTH-RELATED EDUCATIONAL SEMINARS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. BRONSON'S COALITION BUILDING ACTIVITIES INCLUDE SUPPORTING A YOUTH RESIDENT READING PROGRAM AT THE KALAMAZOO COUNTY JUVENILE HOME. COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT HAS PRIMARILY INVOLVED PATIENT ADVOCACY THROUGH CASE MANAGEMENT. IN ADDITION, BRONSON FINANCIALLY SUPPORTS THE COUNTY MEDICAL CONTROL AUTHORITY AND SITS ON THE WEST MICHIGAN CANCER CENTER INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW BOARD EVALUATING CANCER RESEARCH PROTOCOLS INVOLVING PATIENTS.
PART III, LINE 4: AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS IS ESTABLISHED ON AN AGGREGATE BASIS BY USING HISTORICAL WRITE-OFF RATE FACTORS APPLIED TO UNPAID ACCOUNTS BASED ON AGING. LOSS RATE FACTORS ARE BASED ON HISTORICAL LOSS EXPERIENCE AND ADJUSTED FOR ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND OTHER TRENDS AFFECTING THE HOSPITAL'S ABILITY TO COLLECT OUTSTANDING AMOUNTS. UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS ARE WRITTEN OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS IN THE PERIOD THEY ARE DETERMINED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE. AN ALLOWANCE FOR CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS AND INTERIM PAYMENT ADVANCES IS BASED ON EXPECTED PAYMENT RATES FROM PAYORS BASED ON CURRENT REIMBURSEMENT METHODOLOGIES. THIS AMOUNT ALSO INCLUDES AMOUNTS RECEIVED FOR INTERIM PAYMENTS AGAINST UNPAID CLAIMS BY CERTAIN PAYORS.LINE 2 & 3 ARE REPORTED AS EXPENSE, NOT COST. FOR LINE 3, BAD DEBT WRITEOFFS SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING A PORTION OF SERVICES WITHOUT PAYMENT. THE REQUESTED INFORMATION IS NOT AVAILABLE IN THE SYSTEM AND A REASONABLE ESTIMATE CANNOT BE MADE BASED ON THE INFORMATION CURRENTLY AVAILABLE. WE ARE WORKING TOWARDS BEING ABLE TO PULL THIS INFORMATION FROM THE SYSTEM FOR FUTURE REQUESTS. A PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS CONSIDERED COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS IT REPRESENTS SERVICES RENDERED TO UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED PATIENTS.
PART III, LINE 8: COSTING METHODOLOGY IS A COST TO CHARGE RATIO AS DEFINED BY THE IRS 990 INSTRUCTIONS. SHORTFALL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT DUE TO ITS REPRESENTATION OF COST OF A PORTION OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY WITHOUT PAYMENT.
PART VI, LINE 2: BRONSON METHODIST HOSPITAL UTILIZES A STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT MODEL TO DEVELOP BOTH A LONG TERM (3 YEAR) AND ANNUAL STRATEGIC PLAN. INPUTS INTO THE PLAN ARE DOCUMENTED IN OUR STRATEGIC INPUT DOCUMENT. ONE OF THE IMPORTANT INPUTS INTO THIS PLAN IS THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY. SEVERAL SOURCES ARE UTILIZED TO PERFORM THIS ASSESSMENT. THE SOURCES FOR THE LATEST STRATEGIC INPUT DOCUMENT ARE LISTED BELOW. SOURCES FOR DETERMINING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS- MICHIGAN BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTORS SURVEY 2002-2006 COMBINED BUREAU OF EPIDEMIOLOGY AND MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH- 2004 MICHIGAN SURGEON GENERAL'S HEALTH STATUS REPORT (HEALTH MICHIGAN 2010)- F AS IN FAT: HOW OBESITY IS FAILING IN AMERICA 2009 - TRUST FOR AMERICA'S HEALTH AND ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON FOUNDATION- MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH INFANT MORTALITY RATES, 2006THE STRATEGIC INPUT DOCUMENT IS REVIEWED BY THE ENTIRE EXECUTIVE TEAM AND UTILIZED TO DEVELOP OUR COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT AS WELL AS OUR STRATEGIC ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES.THE COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT IS SHARED WITH THE BOARD EVERY THREE YEARS USING OUR COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP MODEL AS SHOWN BELOW.

PART VI, LINE 5: BRONSON METHODIST HOSPITAL (BMH) IS A COMMUNITY-OWNED AND GOVERNED NOT FOR PROFIT HOSPITAL WITH 405 LICENSED BEDS AND AN OPEN MEDICAL STAFF. IT IS GOVERNED BY THE BRONSON HEALTHCARE GROUP BOARD COMPRISED OF 21 MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. FOUNDED IN 1900, BMH HAS AS ONE OF ITS FIVE CORE VALUES, "COMMITMENT TO OUR COMMUNITY" AND HAS HISTORICALLY DEMONSTRATED THIS VALUE BY CONTINUING TO DELIVER THE FULL CONTINUUM OF NEEDED MEDICAL SERVICES AND WORKING WITHIN COMMUNITY COLLABORATIVES TO ADDRESS COMMUNITY NEEDS. BMH PROVIDES A DISAPROPORTIONATE AMOUNT OF CARE TO THE SEGMENT OF THE POPULATION USING MEDICAID. WE ARE THE LARGEST MEDICAID PROVIDER OF ANY LARGE HOSPITAL IN MICHIGAN OUTSIDE OF THE DETROIT AREA (ON A PERCENTAGE BASIS). IN 2011, APPROXIMATELY 21% OF BMH'S PATIENTS WERE MEDICAID RECIPIENTS. WE HAVE THREE MEDICAID ENROLLERS ON SITE TO HELP THOSE WITHOUT INSURANCE ENROLL IN MEDICAID, OR REFER THEM TO COMMUNITY RESOURCES. MUCH OF BMH'S SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY IS DIRECTED AT WOMEN'S AND CHILDREN'S NEEDS. BRONSON IS THE ONLY CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL IN SOUTHWEST MICHIGAN AND, THEREFORE, THE SOLE PROVIDER OF INPATIENT PEDIATRICS INCLUDING PEDIATRIC INTENSIVE CARE AND NEONATAL INTENSIVE CARE. IN FACT, OVER HALF THE PATIENTS IN THE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL ARE MEDICAID RECEPIENTS. AS A REGIONAL PERINATAL CENTER, BMH IS ALSO THE REGIONAL DESTINATION FOR HIGH-RISK PREGNANCY CARE. BMH'S LEVEL 1 TRAUMA CENTER AND BURN CENTER, ALONG WITH ADVANCED CAPABILITIES IN NEUROVASCULAR AND CARDIOVASCULAR CARE, SERVE ALL PATIENT POPULATIONS REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. SERVICE TO COMMUNITYIN RECENT YEARS, BMH COLLABORATIVES HAVE INCLUDED HEALTHY FUTURES (BROAD COMMUNITY INITATIVE TO ADDRESS HEALTH AND ECONOMIC ISSUES), HEALTHY BABY/HEALTHY START (REDUCE INFANT MORTALITY), IMMUNIZE-BY-TWO, HEALTH CONNECT (PROVIDE COMMUNITY-WIDE PRIMARY CARE ACCESS) AND THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN HEALTH INITIATIVE (HEALTH PROMOTION AND SCREENING PROGRAM OFFERED THROUGH KALAMAZOO'S AFRICAN-AMERICAN FAITH COMMUNITY). IN 2011, BMH DOCUMENTED IN EXCESS OF 22,000 EVENTS IN PROVIDING COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITIES WITH NET VALUE OF APPROXIMATELY $55,000,000 IN COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITES. ADDRESSING DISPARITIESBMH IS LOCATED IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN AND IS THE CITY'S LARGEST EMPLOYER. BMH OPENED A NEW REPLACEMENT HOSPITAL IN DECEMBER OF 2000 ACROSS THE STREET FROM ITS PREVIOUS FACILITY. THIS LOCATION WAS CHOSEN BECAUSE OF ANOTHER OF BRONSON'S CORE VALUES, "CARE AND RESPECT FOR ALL PEOPLE." BMH IS LOCATED WHERE PEOPLE MOST IN NEED CAN UTILIZE OUR SERVICES AND ACCESS US THROUGH PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. THE ALIGNMENT OF OUR MISSION, VISION AND VALUES CREATES AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE ALL PERSONS ARE WELCOME AND PATIENTS ARE TREATED REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. FOR EXAMPLE, BRONSON'S TRAUMA AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT SEES OVER 95,000 PATIENT VISITS PER YEAR. IN ADDITION, BMH'S OUTREACH SERVICES WITH THE FEDERALLY QUALIFIED FAMILY HEALTH CENTER PROVIDE FOR AN IMPROVED CONTINUUM OF CARE FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE ON MEDICAID OR ARE UNDER-INSURED. COMMUNITY HEALTH STATUSBMH COLLABORATES WITH TWO KEY COMMUNITY PARTNERS FOR THE GATHERING OF HEALTH STATISTICS: THE GREATER KALAMAZOO UNITED WAY AND KALAMAZOO COUNTY HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES. THESE TWO ORGANIZATIONS, ALONG WITH BMH, AND THE FAMILY HEALTH CENTER REGULARLY DISCUSS HEALTH NEEDS AND EMERGING HEALTH TRENDS. THIS COLLABORATIVE, AN OFF-SHOOT OF HEALTHY FUTURES, MONITORS KALAMAZOO COUNTY'S PERFORMANCE AGAINST HEALTHY PEOPLE 2010 GOALS. IT WAS THESE COMMUNITY HEALTH INDICATORS THAT INITIATED HEALTHY BABY/HEALTHY START, IMMUNIZE-BY-TWO AND THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN HEALTH INITIATIVE.COLLABORATION WITH COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERSAS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, BMH SEEKS COMMUNITY COLLABORATORS AND STAKEHOLDERS AS PARTNERS IN MEETING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. TOWARDS THIS END, BMH ADMINISTRATORS SERVE ON SEVERAL COMMUNITY BOARDS INCLUDING: THE FAMILY HEALTH CENTER, UNITED WAY, SALVATION ARMY, MINISTRY WITH COMMUNITY, NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS, GREATER KALAMAZOO UNITED WAY, FAMILY AND CHILDREN'S SERVICES, HOSPICE CARE OF SOUTHWEST MICHIGAN, DOUGLAS COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION AND THE SAFE KIDS COLLABORATIVE, (WHICH BMH STAFFS). BMH HAS A THREE-PRONG APPROACH FOR COMMMUNITY LEADERSHIP FOCUSING ON COMMUNITY HEALTH, COMMUNITY SERVICE AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVES- IMPROVING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE- IMPROVING OVERALL COMMUNITY HEALTH- CITIZEN-BASED EDUCATION AND RESEARCH ON HEALTH OUTCOMES- REDUCE DISPARITIES IN HEALTH OUTCOMES - THE RECENT FOCUS WAS ON CHILDHOOD SAFETY AND PREVENTION AND ACCESS/SCREENING/EDUCATION- COLLABORATE WITH SOCIAL SERVICES AGENCIES. AN EXAMPLE OF IMPROVING ACCESS: BMH HAS WORKED WITH COMMUNITY AGENCIES TO REDUCE BARRIERS AND IMPROVE ACCESS FOR UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS. THE HOSPITAL CO-FUNDS A GRADUATE MEDICAL RESIDENCY PROGRAM WITH NINE SUBSPECIALTIES AND AN AMBULATORY CLINIC WITH 70,000 PATIENT VISITS ANNUALLY. IN ADDITION, BMH HAS A LEADERSHIP ROLE AT KALAMAZOO FAMILY HEALTH CENTER THAT HAS 35,000 PATIENT VISITS PER YEAR. COMMUNITY SERVICE: - PARTICIATE IN PUBLIC AND NOT-FOR-PROFIT COMMITTEES AND BOARDS- PARTICIPATE IN IMPORTANT COMMUNITY ISSUES- LEAD DISASTER/EMERGENCY EFFORTS- PROVIDE FINANCIAL SUPPORT AND SPONSORSHIPS FOR ARTS AND HUMAN SERVICES ORGANIZATIONSAN EXAMPLE OF AN EMPLOYEE-DRIVEN EFFORT REFLECTIVE OF OUR VALUES, BMH EMPLOYEES DONATE THOUSANDS OF POUNDS OF FOOD TO THE ANNUAL HARVEST GATHERING FOOD DRIVE, WHICH REPLENISHES LOCAL FOOD PANTRIES. IN 2011, THE BRONSON FOOD DRIVE IN KALAMAZOO COUNTY RAISED $22,792 AND 3,835 POUNDS OF FOOD. TRANSLATING THE DOLLARS INTO POUNDS MEANS MORE THAN 94,000 POUNDS WERE PROVIDED TO STOCK THE 26 GROCERY PANTRIES SUPPLIED BY KALAMAZOO LOAVES AND FISHES. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: - SUPPORT GRASSROOT NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOPMENT- STIMULATE ECONOMIC VITALITY- INVEST IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS TO ENSURE ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE CURRICULUM (WMU BRONSON SCHOOL OF NURSING)- COMMIT TO LOCAL VENDORS AND BUSINESSES AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT EXAMPLE WOULD BE OUR BRONSON HOME OWNERSHIP PROGRAM (BHOP). SINCE 1998, BRONSON HAS INVESTED $357,525 TO HELP EMPLOYEES PURCHASE HOMES DOWNTOWN, CLOSE TO THE BRONSON CAMPUS. OUR PROGRAM IS A LOAN, EMPLOYEES START PAYING US BACK IN YEAR SIX, AT NO INTEREST. WHAT IS COLLECTED AND THEN RE-LOANED. THUS FAR, OUR $357,525 HAS RESULTED IN $387,793 BEING LOANED TO 46 EMPLOYEES. THIS IS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AT THE NEIGHBORHOOD LEVEL. BMH IDENTIFIES WAYS TO TREAT THE DISEASES FACED BY THOSE WE SERVE, AND ALSO SEEK WAYS TO FOSTER AN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH WE CAN CREATE HEALTH AND PREVENTION MEASURES. THIS INCLUDES LOOKING AT OUR COMMUNITIES' ECONOMIC ISSUES, SUCH AS PEOPLE WITHOUT HEALTH INSURANCE, AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES, SUCH AS CLEAN AIR AND WATER. BMH HAS BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED BY PRACTICE GREENHEALTH (FORMERLY HOSPITALS FOR A HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT) AWARDS FOR 10 YEARS IN A ROW, IN RECOGNITION OF SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS IN REDUCING WASTE, PREVENTING POLLUTION AND ELIMINATING MERCURY. BMH ALSO HOLDS THE ENERGY STAR LABEL FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY FROM THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY, AND HAS BEEN NAMED ONE OF AMERICA'S TOP 10 HOSPITALS BY THE "GREEN GUIDE" PUBLICATION. BECAUSE OF THIS, WE ALSO PLAY A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN MANY COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS THAT HAVE A BROADER FOCUS THAN HEALTHCARE.REPORTING TO THE COMMUNITY BMH CONDUCTS AN ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT INVENTORY TO AGGREGATE THE NON-MISSION MANDATED SERVICES WE PROVIDE TO THE COMMUNITY. THIS INVENTORY IS SHARED WITH BRONSON STAKEHOLDERS AND REPORTED TO THE COMMUNITY. INFORMATION IS ALSO AVAILABLE THROUGH BRONSONHEALTH.COM. EXAMPLES INCLUDE QUALITY REPORT, NURSING OUTCOMES, PATIENT SATISFACTION DATA, AND LINKS TO PUBLIC REPORTING WEBSITES.
PART VI, LINE 6: BRONSON METHODIST HOSPITAL IS PART OF AN AFFILIATED SYSTEM THAT INCLUDES TWO OTHER HOSPITALS, BRONSON BATTLE CREEK HOSPITAL AND BRONSON LAKEVIEW HOSPITAL. ALL OF THESE HOSPITALS ARE CONTROLLED BY BRONSON HEALTHCARE GROUP, WHICH IS A COMMUNITY-OWNED AND GOVERNED NOT-FOR-PROFIT HOLDING COMPANY. THE BRONSON HEALTHCARE GROUP(BHG) BOARD IS COMPRISED OF 21 MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY.EACH OF THE THREE HOSPITALS IN THE BHG SYSTEM ADMITS PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY AND PROVIDES OUTREACH SERVICES TO THEIR RESPECIVE COMMUNITIES. BRONSON METHODIST HOSPITAL IS THE LARGEST OF THE THREE HOSPITALS IN THE BHG SYSTEM. AS SUCH, IT HAS A LARGER ROLE IN PROVIDING SERVICES AND PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF THE MANY COMMUNITIES IT SERVES. THE HEALTH PROMOTION ACTIVITIES OF BRONSON METHODIST HOSPITAL ARE DESCRIBED IN LINE #6 ABOVE.IN ADDITION TO THE THREE HOSPITALS, THE BHG SYSTEM INCLUDES SEVERAL SMALLER ENTITIES WHOSE EFFECTS SUPPORT THE HOSPITALS AND THEIR MISSION OF PROVIDING EXCELLENT HEALTHCARE TO THEIR COMMUNITIES.
