        <Explanation>Part I, Line 3c: Maine Coast Regional Health Facilities uses the Federal poverty guidelines to determine eligibility.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part I, Line 7: The IRS 990H Instructions/Guidance provide a template (Worksheet 2 Template) as a way to determine the overall cost to charge ratio that could be applied throughout the IRS 990H form in order to convert charges to cost. Where applicable, we have utilized the worksheet 2 template calculation. The only areas we did not utilize this template calculation were the following. A. IRS 990H worksheet 6- Subsidized Health Services- (The supporting schedule for Part I, Line 7G) we did not utilize the worksheet 2 percentage when we were determining the profit/ loss of each of our provider based clinics. In addition, when we were compiling the subsidized provider based clinics listed in 1C above, we utilized the actual estimated costs on the modified Medicare cost report we prepared instead of applying the worksheet 2 cost to charge percentage. B. IRS 990H Worksheet 3- Unreimbursed Medicaid and other means tested government programs (the supporting schedule for Part I, Lines 7B and 7C) and worksheet 6 Medicaid allowable costs for the subsidized health services listed in line 1C above (part of the line 7G costs) - we did not utilize the worksheet 2 percentage when calculating the Medicaid allowable cost. Instead we utilized the actual Medicaid filed cost report for the allowable costs.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part I, Line 7g: Maine Coast Regional Health Facilities has several provider based physician practices. Per the instructions for IRS Form 990H, Worksheet 6, we are allowed to include any applicable physician practice that the hospital subsidizes (i.e., operates at a loss). As such, we have included the following provider based physician practices that operate at a loss (i.e., are subsidized by the hospital) and the associated costs of these practices.A. Southwest Harbor ClinicB. Ellsworth Internal MedicineC. PediatricsD. RheumatologyE. Family PracticeF. Frenchman Bay ClinicG. Women Care ClinicH. Physician ClinicI. Specialty ClinicJ. Gouldsboro ClinicK. Urology ClinicL. Otolaryngology ClinicM. Dermatology ClinicN. General SurgeryThe above listed provider based physician practices have a community benefit (i.e., aggregate loss or subsidy from the hospital) of approximately $5.3 million. This community benefit does not include any hospital overhead allocated to these clinics. In addition, the community benefit also does not take into account bad debts, charity care and contractual adjustment. Thus this community benefit of approximately $5.3 million is a conservative figure that reconciles to the community benefit reported on IRS form 990H, Part I, Line 7G, Column E.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part I, L7 Col(f): As part of the hospital's total expenses, there is $5,225,791 of bad debts. This amount has been removed from the Part I, Line 7 Column F calculation per the IRS instructions.</Explanation>

        <Identifier>Community Benefit Report</Identifier>
        <ReturnReference>Schedule H, Part I, Line 6a:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Maine Coast Regional Health Facilities prepares a community benefit report through its annual report process. The annual report is available three months after fiscal year end. Within the annual report the hospital describes community benefit in financial terms and a summary of services provided. This includes the losses from: subsidized physician practices; subsidized community health and wellness programs; the cost of patients who cannot afford to pay; Medicaid and Medicare shortfalls; and patients who do not pay.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part III, Line 4: Patient accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to provision for bad debts and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of individual accounts and historical adjustments. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to patient accounts receivable.Maine Coast Regional Health Facilities classify bad debts as an operating expense. The hospital follows the Medicare guidelines for allowable bad debts. It uses the following criteria:A. Establishing that reasonable collection efforts were madeB. Establishing that the accounts were uncollectibleC. Establishing that there is no likelihood of recovery at anytime in the future.The bad debt expense at costs was the total write-offs reduced by the ratio of patient care cost to charges.</Explanation>

      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part III, Line 8: The IRS 990H instructions/guidance provide a template (worksheet 2 template) as a way to determine the overall cost to charge ratio that could be applied throughout the IRS 990H form in order to convert charges to cost. Where applicable, we have utilized the worksheet 2 template calculation. The only area where we did not utilize this template calculation was in form 990H worksheet B, Line 2 &amp; 6- Medicare allowable costs and payments related to the subsidized health services- we utilized the Medicare cost report estimated cost and payment for these services. The hospital believes that provider based clinics listed in 1C above should be and are considered a community benefit due to the fact that without the hospital subsidizing and offering the services that these clinics offer, the community at large would have to travel at least 45 minutes to the nearest like hospital and that hospital's service offerings. As such, Maine Coast believes that by offering and subsidizing these clinics within its community and thus enabling community members to have easy access and an easier commute for these services, that this benefits the whole community at large.</Explanation>

      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part III, Line 9b: When a patient is referred out to collections but then applies for free or discounted care, we pull the account back from collections when it is determined they qualify for one of the programs. If the collection agency suspects that someone may need to apply for one of the programs, they send out an application and notify us. We make every effort to screen as many people as possible before we send them to collections.</Explanation>

      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part VI, Line 2: Maine Coast Regional Health Facilities assessed the medical needs of the community as part of the process for establishing the medical staff development plan. The new medical staff and services were identified in the strategic planning process brought forth from the provider community. It then was determined and prioritized what services the hospital could comfortably address and implement.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part VI, Line 3: We notify patients and customers about access to assistance in various ways. The simplest way is the signage, pamphlets and educational material located around the organization and in the offices. In every patient access/ patient financial services area, is a sign explaining the availability of free/ discounted care and the federal poverty guidelines. There are also pamphlets located in the outpatient areas explaining free care/ discounted care and providing information on Mainecare. For inpatients, there is a book in the room which provides all the information on all programs available.Scheduled medical imaging, surgery patients and inpatients all generally speak with a hospital employee who can provide information on available programs. Inpatients are also offered the services of unicare to assist them with applying for Mainecare. Patient accounting staff are generally available to assist any patient inquiring about programs when presenting for services. Through the patient accounting dept, we provide the information on the statements. We also counsel patients on the phone about all the programs available whether it is a hospital program or Medicaid.</Explanation>
