ExplanationOn July 1, 2007, the Obligated Group adopted ASC Subtopic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. ASC Subtopic 740-10 addresses the determination of how tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under ASC Subtopic 740-10, the Obligated Group must recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC Subtopic 740-10 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods, and requires increased disclosures. As of June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Obligated Group does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.Explanation

PART I, LINE 3CNOT APPLICABLE, AS THE HOSPITAL DOES FOLLOW FPG TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY AND DISCOUNTED CARE TO LOW-INCOME UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED INDIVIDUALS.

NICHOLAS HOSPITAL, 3100 SUPERIOR AVENUE, SHEBOYGAN, WI 53081-1948, BY CONTACTING THE FUND DEVELOPMENT AND ADVOCACY DEPARTMENT AT 920.459.4714, OR BY VISITING THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE AT WWW.STNICHOLASHOSPITAL.ORG UNDER *GUIDE TO ST. NICHOLAS *ABOUT US *REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY *2011 HSHS DIVISION EASTERN WI ANNUAL REPORT.
PART I, LINE 7GTHE HOSPITAL DOES NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT INFORMATION AT THIS TIME TO DETERMINE IF SUBSIDIZED SERVICES EXIST BASED ON THE DEFINITION AND CALCULATIONS REQUIRED BY THE IRS AND IS WORKING TO PROVIDE SUCH INFORMATION IN NEXT YEAR'S RETURN.
PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F)THE PERCENTAGE OF CHARITY CARE AND CERTAIN OTHER BENEFITS AT COST AS A PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSES LESS BAD DEBT IS 6.54%. THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT REMOVED WHEN CALCULATING PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F) WAS 2,030,450.
PART I, LINE 7THE CHARITY CARE REPORTED IS THE TOTAL FROM PATIENT BILLING THAT IS WRITTEN OFF TO CHARITY CARE CHARGE CODES. THIS AMOUNT MATCHES THE NUMBER THAT IS REPORTED ON THE HOSPITAL'S FISCAL YEAR ENDING 2011 AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE TOTAL CHARITY CARE DOLLAR AMOUNT IS THEN REDUCED TO COST BY APPLYING THE HOSPITAL'S COST TO CHARGE RATIO AS CALCULATED ON IRS SCHEDULE H - WORKSHEET 2.
Part IIOur hospital has a long standing commitment to being environmentally sensitive, as part of our Franciscan heritage. There are many examples of how this is demonstrated, one of which is our participation in the Sheboygan County Sharps programs. The hospital serves as a drop-off site for sharps, such as needles used to inject insulin. Community members drop these items at the hospital, which then pays to have them disposed of properly. We actively contribute to the Hospital Sisters Mission Outreach program, whereby surplus or otherwise unused hospital supplies are collected and distributed to missions in the US and many other countries. In addition, we participate in the Wisconsin Hospital Emergency Preparedness Plan ("WHEPP"). The purpose of WHEPP is to develop processes to help participating institutions in Wisconsin meet community needs in a collaborative and organized manner during an incident emergency. The State of Wisconsin recognized that a mass casualty incident due to a biological, chemical, radiological, or natural disaster can easily overwhelm or damage the ability of local healthcare resources to meet community needs. Accordingly, WHEPP, a mutual aid plan, was developed to address this concern. We have actively participated in the organization and development of this group and led efforts in our region. As leaders in this group, we have helped to initiate the preparedness efforts by WHEPP that assist hospitals in our state to maintain the minimum levels of readiness that are expected by the federal and state governments. St. Nicholas' active participation with the local Hmong and Hispanic organizations has brought screenings and education to locations and venues which are easily accessible to members of those populations. The remainder of the support is for colleagues to participate in a variety of community organizations who requested our expertise at various meetings and events.
Part III, Line 4The hospital believes that its charity care, and the related community benefit, is understated because some patients that potentially qualify for charity care do not wish to apply for it, or do not provide all necessary documentation. Thus, the hospital's bad debt may include a portion that could be potentially classified as charity care. The hospital is continually assessing processes to more effectively capture charity care that are more patient-friendly. This will provide a more accurate reporting of charity care services provided by the hospital. The reported bad debt expense of $2,030,450 is the total from patient billing that is written off as bad debt, net of bad debt recoveries, and the net adjustment for the bad debt allowance. The bad debt allowance reflects the estimated future bad debt write-offs for the reported patient accounts receivable at year-end. The bad debt expense is then reduced to cost by applying the hospital's cost to charge ratio as calculated on the IRS schedule H - worksheet 2.
Part III, Line 8The hospital continually strives to provide exceptional, cost-effective patient care. The Medicare program does not provide payment that covers the full cost of the care provided. The fiscal year shortfall in Medicare payments of $12,837,424 is not classified as community benefit by the IRS. The hospital believes this is an important contribution to the health and well being of the community. The hospital's mission is to serve all patients with the highest possible quality and efficiency, regardless of ability to pay for services.
Part III, Line 9b1. Applications or requests for Community Care will be accepted from any patient without discrimination against race, ethnicity, sex, color, religion, origin or ancestry, age, marital status, disabilities or ability to pay. 2. Every effort will be made by the hospital to assist patients in utilizing Government & Third party insurance plans or financial aid programs prior to providing Community Care. Patients will be required to apply for plans or programs for which they may be eligible. 3. If the patient and or responsible party has collaborated with the hospital in seeking reimbursement from appropriate Government & Third party plans or charitable programs & agencies, relief from financial obligation is granted based on Community Care eligibility criteria. 4. Consideration is given to family/household size and income: including cash, savings and investments.
Needs AssessmentSt. Nicholas has a community advisory committee. This committee is representative of the community that the hospital serves. The committee meets regularly to discuss hospital services and the ability of the hospital to meet community health care needs. Hospital colleagues represent the hospital on Hmong and Hispanic community groups to assess the unmet health needs of these groups. As a result, regular screening and education programs are offered from the hospital. The hospital is involved with the "Healthy Sheboygan County 2020" community-based program. This program assesses the health care needs of the community, identifies any potential health care gaps, and advises the hospital on the role it can have in addressing these needs.
Patient Education of Eligibility for AssistanceThe hospital posts the charity care policy and application on its website. In addition, charity care applications are available and prominently displayed in the registration areas. The patient financial counselors meet with patients on site to assist in identifying whether they are eligible for government aid or financial assistance, and to assist in applying for programs for which they may be eligible. All patient access/registration colleagues are trained to provide guidance on financial assistance to patients. In addition, the hospital has contracted with an external organization to do active outreach with patients, who may need additional assistance in securing benefits.
Community InformationThe hospital's service area includes Sheboygan County and parts of Ozaukee, Fond du Lac, Manitowoc and Calumet counties with a total population of approximately 140,000. Much of this area is rural and consists of small family farms. Immigrant communities have grown substantially in recent years, including Hispanic, Hmong, and Eastern Europeans populations.
Promotion of Community HealthOur hospital has an open medical staff and boards comprised of community members. because of the hospital's purpose and tradition, it is organized to promote the health of its primary service area and surrounding areas. the hospital is governed by a board of directors, the majority of which is comprised of persons who reside in the organization's primary service area and who are neither employees nor contractors of the hospital (nor family members thereof). Funds over and above what is needed for operations are reinvested in the facility and program services, using generally accepted accounting principles and market assessment to ensure that the funds are being used wisely. Our hospitals were founded over 100 years ago by a group of Catholic sisters whose purpose was to extend Christ's healing love throughout our area. Because of that, we comply with the Ethical and Religious Directives for Health Care issued by the US Council of Catholic Bishops. We also actively offer a variety of no-charge community and health education programs locally to assist community members in learning more about their health condition or possible health issues. in addition, the hospital operates an emergency room that is open 24 hours to all persons regardless of ability to pay. St. Nicholas devotes significant resources to access for patients who cannot afford care, along with other community benefits. In fiscal year 2011, St. Nicholas provided over $4.5 million in community benefit services, including charity care at cost, unpaid costs of Medicaid and other public programs, and a range of diverse programs designed to enhance access and improve community health. Additionally, during this period, St. Nicolas provided nearly $10 million (at cost) in excess of Medicare payment for health care services. The Community Care Program is a St. Nicholas Hospital-funded program that pays a portion of the patient's hospital bill, based on the patient's income limitations. Another example of community benefit at St. Nicholas is the Hope After Loss Organization ("HALO"), which provides support to families that experience loss of life during pregnancy. This program serves the entire community, at no cost to participants, whether their loss occurred at St. Nicholas Hospital or another facility. Community benefits at St. Nicholas also include multiple programs aimed at health promotion. St. Nicholas Hospital actively participates in "Healthy Sheboygan County 2020". This collaborative group is made up of local health care organizations. The group's primary focus is to improve the lives of people in our county. Our hospital staff members helped the AODA Committee with the first County-wide Medication Drop Off as well as educational presentations. This was the springboard for permanent drop off locations within Sheboygan County. The Sheboygan County Activity & Nutrition ("SCAN") receives assistance through the hospital's participation in the employee Health & Fitness Day, Family Health & Fitness Day, and local health fair. Also, a hospital representative serves on the committee and assists with the coordination of these county-wide activities. St. Nicholas Hospital is a supporting co-sponsor of the Community Clinic being developed to address the need to increase access to health care for the un- and underinsured in Sheboygan County. In addition to the financial support, St. Nicholas Hospital has dedicated staff to assist with the important community benefit effort. Examples of other community benefit contributions include: * Free monthly screenings and health education for the Hmong Mutual Assistance; * Support groups free of charge for heart, renal, and stroke patients as well as grief counseling for adults and children; * Free monthly blood pressure screenings at dozens of locations throughout the county; * Free use of hospital conference and meeting rooms for area not-for-profit organizations; * Provide two houses with financial support and in-kind services for Sheboygan County Interfaith Organization and their Bridgeway House, which provides temporary housing for homeless women and children and families transitioning out of domestic abuse situations; * Child care seat safety checks by certified technicians open to the public free of charge; * Free bike helmet fittings and helmets at cost, open to the public; * Breast cancer screenings at cost for the underserved, including special services and translation for women from the local Hispanic community; * Financial support and in-kind services for Sheboygan County Interfaith Organization, Family Resource Center, Safe Harbor Domestic Abuse Shelter, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, and area churches and schools; * Food drives for area food pantries; school supply and clothing drives for area schools * HealthExpress visits in the community throughout the year to provide free screenings and health education. * Staff serves on the Mental Health Committee and the Board of Mental Health America-There is Hope-suicide prevention walk pro.
Affiliated Health Care SystemSt. nicholas Hospital is an affiliate of Hospital Sisters Health System. The mission of Hospital Sisters Health System ("HSHS") is to serve those in need through a health care ministry that values compassion, respect and reverence for life. The nearly 14,000 colleagues who make up HSHS are dedicated to this mission and to providing high quality health care to whoever seeks our services. By living our mission each day, HSHS colleagues constantly strive to provide the highest quality and most cost-effective and compassionate health care to those we are privileged to serve. Our health care ministry extends across 12 communities in Wisconsin and Illinois and includes 13 hospitals, dozens of community-based health centers and clinics, and more than 2,000 physician partners. As part of our mission to provide healing and hope to the three million people we serve, we have developed Community Benefit initiatives that 1) expand access to health care, 2) enhance overall health status and 3) promote medical education. In the Fiscal Year that ended June 30, 2011, HSHS hospitals provided $166.1 million in Community Benefits (or 8.7% of total expenses), an increase of $15.7 million from FY 2010. Of this amount, $37.1 million was provided for charity care and $99.8 million was the amount of unreimbursed care provided under the Medicaid program. In addition, HSHS hospitals committed significant resources in serving the Medicare population. The cost of providing services to primarily elderly beneficiaries of the Medicare program, in excess of governmental and managed care contract payments, was $183.8 million during Fiscal Year 2011. HSHS hospitals also recorded $103.9 million in uncollectible accounts. HSHS strengthens the health of our communities by continually reinvesting any surplus revenue from operations and investments into new medical technology, facility infrastructure and health care services. These investments ensure that our hospitals can continue to provide high quality, compassionate care to our patients. During Fiscal Year 2011, HSHS also continued to invest in our Care Integration strategy that places the patient at the center of our work while allowing us to deliver care in a more cost-effective and efficient manner. These investments are designed to better coordinate care, improve health outcomes, create new efficiencies, and help ensure that patients (especially those with chronic conditions) get well and stay well. Our Care Integration strategy is delivering promising results. An example is our three Medical Home pilot projects. Diabetic Patients enrolled in Medical Homes in rural Illinois experienced an average 42 percent decrease in their blood glucose levels while their unplanned readmissions to the hospital dropped to zero. HSHS is making significant progress implementing interoperable health information technologies and robust health information exchanges. In central Illinois, HSHS is joining with other health care providers to develop a statewide Health Information Exchange ("HIE") that will allow health care providers to exchange clinical information, such as medication histories and test results, access that information at the point of care and make better informed decisions with their patients. HSHS understands that our investments in information technology will have a positive impact on the quality, safety and efficiency of health care. 1. Expanding access to health care An integral component of our Community Benefit initiatives is to provide care to every patient who seeks our services without exception. To that end, HSHS hospitals have established Charity Care program guidelines that cover 100% of hospital charges for individuals and families who earn 125% to 250% of the federal poverty level. HSHS hospital's Charity Care guidelines have sliding scales, in some instances providing up to a 50% discount on charges for those earning up to 600% of the federal poverty level. HSHS hospitals have created simple forms for those wishing to apply for Charity Care and assign counselors to visit with inpatients who are uninsured to let them know about our charity care policies and provide assistance filling out applications for financial assistance or enrollment in publicly funded health care programs. HSHS hospitals also work collaboratively with others to enhance access to health care services for those in need. St. John's Hospital in Springfield, IL has partnered with Memorial Medical Center, Southern Illinois University School and Medicine and other community partners to support the Coordinated Access to Community Health ("CATCH") initiative. The free program is being made available to uninsured adults in Sangamon County to help them access routine medical care, specialty doctors and affordable medicine. Launched in May 2011, CATCH enrolls patients as they visit social service agencies or when they leave hospital emergency rooms. Enrollees are then referred to Springfield's federally funded primary care clinic, Capitol Community Health Center, or participating doctors' private offices. Grants from St. John's Hospital, Memorial Medical Center, United Way of Central Illinois and the Dominican Sisters offset CATCH's first year of expenses. Patient advocates at St. John's Hospital and Memorial Medical Center help uninsured patients find primary or specialty doctors and make appointments, and arrange for financial assistance from participating social service agencies for prescription drugs. In the first three months since the program was launched, CATCH signed up more than 250 physicians in the community who agreed to see patients at no charge. The program endeavors to enroll up to 6,000 uninsured patients within the next few years. By making it easier for uninsured residents to get preventive health care services, CATCH organizers believe uninsured patients' medical problems will be addressed early, helping improve their quality of life. St. Mary's Hospital Medical Center in Green Bay, WI supports the NEW Community Clinic, a 38-year-old free health center for the uninsured and underinsured. St. Mary's provides free and discounted laboratory and radiology services to the clinic. More than 70 percent of patients say the clinic's care allowed them to avoid having to seek care in a local Emergency Room. For the past decade, St. Anthony's Memorial Hospital in Effingham, IL has teamed up with Effingham Catholic Charities to co-sponsor the Prescription Assistance Program. Catholic Charities' staff members work with clients who need prescription medication but may not be able to afford them because they are uninsured or underinsured. Due to the financial support of St. Anthony's, the program is able to provide needed prescriptions to dozens of residents each month. St. Francis Hospital in Litchfield, IL collaborated with local dental care providers to coordinate and provide a free day of dental care to uninsured individuals. The collaboration was the result of a community needs assessment that determined access to dental care was a priority in the community. The "Community Day of Dental Care" provided free dental cleanings, X-Rays, and extractions to 90 uninsured individuals. Among those 90 people served included a military veteran who has been unable to obtain dental care after a St. Louis facility closed. He was able to have five teeth extracted. Another person served was a young woman who needed some minor restorative care which greatly improved her appearance. She was very grateful because she had a job interview coming up and would be able to attend the interview feeling better about her appearance. 2. Enhancing the health status of the community Another component of our Community Benefit initiatives is to improve the quality of life in our communities. Our hospitals work closely with a wide array of public and private organizations that share our commitment to enhancing health and wellness. We know that by working together, we can maximize our efforts by sharing resources, reduce duplication of services, and make it easier for residents to get the services and knowledge they need to live healthier lives. HSHS hospitals also understand they need to listen closely to the residents of the communities they serve to ensure the health care needs of all are being met. Sacred Heart Hospital in Eau Claire, WI invited more than 1,400 area residents to share their vision for health care during a series of focus groups. Participants included constituents that are often overlooked: low-income, vulnerable populations and minority groups. The visioning sessions captured the voices of special populations, Among Mutual Assistance Association members, Amish farmers, seniors, young children and other diverse groups. The feedback provided led to more than 100 actionable items that were assessed and/or implemented over the first six months since the sessions concluded. One action taken by Sacred Heart Hospital and St. Joseph's Hospital in Chippewa

COMPENSATION PROCESSFORM 990 PART VI, LINE 15The Compensation Committee ("Committee") is comprised of independent members of the Board of Directors. The Committee develops a compensation philosophy for the System and all affiliates. The Committee selects and hires the independent compensation consultant to develop comparability data and advise the Committee during its deliberations regarding all elements of total compensation for all disqualified individuals. Integrated Healthcare Strategies ("IHS"), the consultants utilized by the Committee, use data from multiple tax-exempt peer group sources to determine salary ranges, incentive opportunity ranges, and benefits for the disqualified individuals. IHS then assists the Committee in preparing contemporaneous documentation of all actions. Each Committee meeting is conducted with the intent to create a rebuttable presumption of reasonableness for all elements of executive total compensation for the disqualified individuals. The Chairman makes this declaration and also inquires if there are any conflicts of interest by any attendees. Any conflicts are disclosed and the Committee then acts in a manner to avoid any conflicted individual participating in any manner where a conflict might exist. At the end of the meeting, the Committee prepares contemporaneous minutes that record all actions taken during the meeting. Joint Ventures FORM 990 PART VI, LINE 16B Hospital Sisters Health System adopted a Joint Venture Compliance Program policy effective on January 1, 2012 for all system hospitals, including St. Nicholas Hospital.
