X X X HOME HEALTH HOSPICE HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL INCORPORATED 1 PART I, LINE 3C: THE ORGANIZATION USES FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY FOR PROVIDING FREE AND DISCOUNTED CARE TO LOW INCOME INDIVIDUALS. PART I, LINE 7G: HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL INCLUDED $4,392,848 AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES ON SCHEDULE H FOR COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PHYSICIAN CLINICS. PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN F: THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE THAT WAS INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A) BUT REMOVED FROM THE DENOMINATOR FOR CALCULATION OF THE PERCENTAGES IN COLUMN (F) WAS $7,407,398. PART I, LINE 7: THE ORGANIZATION USED THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM WORKSHEET 2 TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN PART I, LINE 7. COST METHOD WAS USED FOR UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID (7B), FROM MEDICAID COST REPORT, AND SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES (7G). PART III, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION USED COST TO CHARGE RATIO TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN PART III, LINE 2. THE ORGANIZATION'S AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT CONTAIN A FOOTNOTE REGARDING BAD DEBT EXPENSE. BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS REPORTED AS "PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS" ON THE STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS AND CHANGES IN NET ASSETS OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE HOSPITAL'S SCREENING PROCESS TO DETERMINE THOSE PATIENTS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS VERY THOROUGH, AND THE HOSPITAL HAS AN EXTENSIVE PATIENT EDUCATION PROGRAM. THEREFORE, VERY FEW PATIENTS, IF ANY, WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DO NOT RECEIVE ASSISTANCE. PART III, LINE 8: MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS OF CARE AND RELATED REIMBURSEMENT WERE OBTAINED FROM THE 2011 MEDICARE COST REPORT INCLUDING DSH AND BAD DEBT REIMBURSEMENT. THE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COST AS REPORTED ON THE MEDICARE COST REPORT REFLECTED IN THE AMOUNT REPORTED IN PART III, LINE 6 IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL MEDICARE REGULATIONS REGARDING THE CALCULATION OF MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COST. PART III, LINE 9B: HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL HAS AN "ACCOUNT FOLLOW UP" POLICY OUTLINING STATEMENT INTERVALS AND LEGAL ACTIVITY.THE POLICY APPLIES TO ALL PATIENTS. WE ALSO HAVE A "FINANCIAL POLICY" OUTLINING OUR STATEMENT SERIES. IF ANY TYPE OF PATIENT HAS NO INSURANCE UPON REGISTRATION, THEY ARE REQUESTED TO SIGN A "STATEMENT OF NO INSURANCE" DOCUMENT WHICH ENTITLES THEM TO AUTOMATICALLY RECEIVE A 32% DISCOUNT OF TOTAL CHARGES.IF THE PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR FREE CARE BASED ON FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES, THE ENTIRE BALANCE IS WRITTEN OFF AND NO COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE MADE. A NOTICE IS SENT TO THE PATIENT ADVISING THAT CHARITY QUALIFICATIONS HAVE BEEN MET. IF THE PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR DISCOUNTED CARE, THE APPROPRIATE DISCOUNT IS APPLIED TO THE BALANCE. A NOTICE IS SENT TO THE PATIENT ADVISING THAT CHARITY QUALIFICATIONS HAVE BEEN MET AND THE PATIENT IS REQUESTED TO CONTACT US TO SET UP THE REMAINING BALANCE ON A PAYMENT PLAN. NEEDS ASSESSMENT PART VI, LINE 2 HRHS' PURPOSE IS "TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST QUALITY CARE BASED ON THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE WE SERVE." IN FULFILLING THIS PURPOSE AND VISION, HRHS' LEADERSHIP EMPLOYS A VARIETY OF METHODS TO IDENTIFY AND PRIORITIZE SERVICES THAT WILL BEST MEET THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THOSE IN THE REGION. IN TODAY'S EVER-CHANGING HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT AND WITH THE INCEPTION OF HEALTHCARE REFORM, HRHS IS PROUD OF ITS ABILITY TO RESPOND TO CURRENT MEDICAL CHALLENGES AND PRUDENTLY PLAN HEALTH AND WELLNESS OPPORTUNITIES FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. VARIOUS ASSESSMENT TOOLS AND SUGGESTIONS FROM CITIZENS IN THE REGION HELPED CREATE SERVICES AND PROGRAMS AIMED AT IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. HRHS USES A VARIETY OF INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL HEALTH DATA RESOURCES TO ASSESS THE COMMUNITY'S HEALTH CARE NEEDS, INCLUDING COLLABORATIVE ASSESSMENT EFFORTS WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WITH SIMILAR INTERESTS.ASSESSMENT TOOLS INCLUDE: *HRHS PATIENT SATISFACTION DATA, TELEPHONE INTERVIEWS, SURVEYS, LETTERS, ETC. *HOSPITAL ADMISSION AND DISCHARGE DATA *FEEDBACK FROM CIVIC ENTITIES, GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES, AND RESCUE SQUADS *CENTRAL VIRGINIA HEALTH PLANNING AGENCY SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION *CENTRAL VIRGINIA HEALTH PLANNING AGENCY NEEDS ASSESSMENT *VIRGINIA CENTER FOR HEALTHY COMMUNITIES - VIRGINIA ATLAS OF COMMUNITY HEALTH *COMMUNITY PERCEPTION SURVEY 2010 *PHYSICIAN MANPOWER ANALYSIS *BOARD, MEDICAL STAFF, AND EMPLOYEE FEEDBACK *PATIENT AND FAMILY FOCUS GROUP FEEDBACK *VHHA "INDICATORS OF HEALTHY COMMUNITIES 2003" *DIRECTION FROM LICENSURE, ACCREDITATION, AND REGULATORY BODIES *LITERATURE REVIEW AND INTERNET RESEARCH *STATE MEDICAL FACILITIES PLAN *VISION 2020, A COMMUNITY-WIDE ACTION PLAN FOR FUTURE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT *HEALTHY PEOPLE 2010 *PHYSICIAN SATISFACTION SURVEY 2010 INFORMATION FROM THE VARIOUS DATA SOURCES IS UTILIZED TO ASSESS OUR BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PLANS AND TO COORDINATE OUTREACH ACTIVITIES WITH COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS.SERVICE INITIATIVES AND EXPANSION/ENHANCEMENTS TO MEET COMMUNITY NEEDS ARE CONTINUOUSLY DEVELOPED AND IMPLEMENTED AND FUNDED THROUGH HRH AND/OR FEDERAL, STATE, AND/OR FOUNDATION GRANTS. IN 2007, HRHS ACQUIRED A PRIMARY CARE PRACTICE WITH 3 LOCATIONS. A FOURTH SITE, HALIFAX PRIMARY CARE, OPENED IN 2008, AND A FIFTH SITE, SOUTHERN VIRGINIA ORTHOPEDICS, WAS OPENED IN 2010.

THEY ASSIST THE PATIENT THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE APPLICATION PROCESS TO ENSURE ALL DOCUMENTATION IS COMPLETE.

HRH EMPLOYEES VOLUNTEER WITH VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS AND HRHS SUPPORTS MANY OF THESE THROUGH MONETARY, HUMAN RESOURCE, AND MATERIAL DONATIONS. SOME AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM PART VI, LINE 6 HALIFAX REGIONAL HEALTH SYSTEM AND ALL OF ITS AFFILIATED ENTITIES, INCLUDING THE HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL (HRH), ARE GOVERNED BY A VOLUNTEER 35 MEMBER BOARD OF DIRECTORS (THE "SYSTEM BOARD") WHICH MEETS ON A MONTHLY BASIS.

THIS IS DEMONSTRATED IN HRH'S CONTINUED FINANCIAL SUPPORT OF ITS FOUR PRIMARY CARE SITES AND ITS EFFORTS TO IMPROVE AND EXPAND SERVICES IN RESPONSE TO COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS. THROUGH A 2010 COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT, FOR EXAMPLE, HRH IDENTIFIED A CRITICAL ACCESS BARRIER TO DENTAL SERVICES.

HRH IS COMMITTED TO HEALTHCARE EDUCATION TO HELP ENSURE THE AVAILABILITY OF HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS IN THE SERVICE AREA.SURPLUS FUNDS HAVE BEEN COMMITTED TO HELP ADDRESS THE CRITICAL NURSING SHORTAGE EXPERIENCED THROUGHOUT THE REGION. OVER THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS, HRH HAS WORKED DILIGENTLY WITH LEADERS OF SOUTHSIDE VIRGINIA COMMUNITY COLLEGE (SVCC) TO EXPAND AND MARKET THE REGISTERED NURSE PROGRAM AND TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF NURSES GRADUATING FROM BOTH THE PRACTICAL NURSING PROGRAM AND THE REGISTERED NURSE PROGRAM. IN 2006, SVCC EXPANDED ITS REGISTERED NURSE PROGRAM TO THE SOUTHERN VIRGINIA HIGHER EDUCATION CENTER (SVHEC).

ORGANIZATION'S MISSION PART III, LINE 1 THE PURPOSE OF HALIFAX REGIONAL HEALTH SYSTEM IS TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST QUALITY CARE BASED ON THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE WE SERVE. HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL, INC. IS ORGANIZED TO PROMOTE THE GENERAL HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AND TO PARTICIPATE, SO FAR AS CIRCUMSTANCES MAY WARRANT, IN ANY ACTIVITY DESIGNED AND CARRIED ON TO PROMOTE THE GENERAL HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. PROGRAM SERVICES PART III, LINE 4 AS A NON-PROFIT ENTITY, HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL (HRH) PROVIDES A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT SERVICES, RESPONDING TO IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY NEEDS AND SUPPORTING THE GENERAL HEALTH AND WELFARE OF APPROXIMATELY 80,000 PEOPLE IN THE REGION. THE HOSPITAL AND LONG-TERM CARE FACILITIES, ALL PART OF HALIFAX REGIONAL HEALTH SYSTEM (HRHS), UTILIZE EXCESS REVENUE OVER EXPENSES TO UPGRADE FACILITIES, TO PURCHASE NEW EQUIPMENT AND TO UPGRADE CLINICAL AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IN ORDER TO IMPROVE QUALITY AND PATIENT SAFETY, AND TO PROMOTE AND SUPPORT HEALTH AND WELLNESS IN THE COMMUNITY. IN THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING AUGUST 31, 2011, CONTRIBUTIONS TO CHARITY CARE ALONE TOTALED $4,870,598 ($1,646,000 AT COST, APPROXIMATELY). EMPLOYEES SPEND HUNDREDS OF HOURS VOLUNTEERING THEIR TIME AND TALENTS IN SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, SPEAKING TO CIVIC GROUPS, PROVIDING FREE HEALTH SCREENINGS, AND SERVING ON COMMUNITY AND STATE ORGANIZATIONS. HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL, AS PART OF HALIFAX REGIONAL HEALTH SYSTEM, DONATED $251,933 THROUGH ITS COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM TO ASSIST COMMUNITY GROUPS AND AGENCIES IN ORDER TO HELP PROMOTE ALL AREAS OF HEALTH AND WELLNESS IN THE COMMUNITY, INCLUDING PHYSICAL, MENTAL, VOCATIONAL, EMOTIONAL, INTELLECTUAL AND SPIRITUAL WELL-BEING. HRH ALSO ASSISTS WITH FUND RAISING ACTIVITIES FOR GROUPS SUCH AS EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES GROUPS AND CO-SPONSORS PUBLIC EVENTS PLANNED BY VARIOUS CLUBS, SCHOOLS AND BUSINESSES. HRH PROVIDES A NUMBER OF COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SERVICES, HEALTH PROFESSIONS EDUCATION SERVICES AND COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES. IF HALIFAX REGIONAL DID NOT PERFORM THESE ESSENTIAL ROLES-PROVIDING CHARITY CARE, MONETARY CONTRIBUTIONS AND WELLNESS EDUCATION, THESE OBLIGATIONS WOULD MOST LIKELY HAVE TO BE ASSUMED BY GOVERNMENT AND SUPPORTED BY TAXPAYERS. SINCE HALIFAX REGIONAL OPENED ITS DOORS JULY 1, 1953, THE ACUTE CARE DIVISION'S MISSION HAS BEEN TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST QUALITY CARE BASED ON THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF CITIZENS IN THE REGION. HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL SERVES THE COUNTIES OF HALIFAX, WESTERN MECKLENBURG, AND CHARLOTTE, PLUS MANY COMMUNITIES THAT BORDER THESE COUNTIES. IN APRIL 1997, HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL BECAME A SUBSIDIARY OF HALIFAX REGIONAL HEALTH SYSTEM AND REMAINS THE ONLY PROVIDER OF INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT ACUTE CARE SERVICES IN A 30- TO 40-MILE RADIUS. HEALTHCARE TAKES MANY FORMS AT HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL.IN ADDITION TO MEDICAL SERVICES FOR INPATIENTS AND OUTPATIENTS, ACUTE-CARE AND SKILLED-CARE SERVICES, AND REHABILITATION PROGRAMS, WELLNESS IS PROMOTED THROUGH VARIOUS INITIATIVES, SUCH AS HEALTH SCREENINGS, SEMINARS AND CLASSES, CO-SPONSORED PROGRAMS AND CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS OFFERED BY A COMMUNITY-HEALTH ORIENTED ADMINISTRATION, BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND VOLUNTEERS.FOR THE MOST PART, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AND SCREENINGS ARE FREE. OTHERS ARE OFFERED AT REDUCED RATES. THE HOSPITAL IS LICENSED TO OPERATE 192 BEDS, INCLUDING 122 MEDICAL/SURGICAL BEDS, 10 INTENSIVE/ CARDIAC CARE BEDS, 21 OBSTETRIC BEDS, 20 BASSINETS AND SPECIAL-CARE NURSERY BEDS, AND 19 LICENSED SKILLED NURSING FACILITY BEDS (SUBACUTE).IT OFFERS THE REGION ADVANCED DIAGNOSTIC AND TREATMENT CAPABILITIES INCLUDING CAP ACCREDITED CLINICAL LABORATORY SERVICES, AN ON-SITE BLOOD BANK AND DIRECT ACCESS TESTING; DIAGNOSTIC RADIOLOGY, INCLUDING NUCLEAR MEDICINE, COMPUTERIZED AXIAL TOMOGRAPHY (CAT); IN-HOUSE MRI AND MOBILE PET/CT COMBINATION SCANNING; COMPUTER-AIDED DETECTION (CAD) MAMMOGRAPHY, INCLUDING STEREOTACTIC AND SENTINEL-NODE BIOPSY; NON-INVASIVE AND NUCLEAR CARDIOLOGY; STRESS TESTING; INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY SERVICES AND INPATIENT DIALYSIS. THE HOSPITAL OFFERS EMERGENCY MEDICINE AND INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SURGERY, INCLUDING GENERAL, OPHTHALMOLOGIC, GYNECOLOGICAL, ORAL/MAXILLOFACIAL, ORTHOPEDIC AND VASCULAR SURGERY; AND UPPER AND LOWER GI ENDOSCOPIES AND TOTAL-JOINT REPLACEMENT.TREATMENTS FOR PROBLEM WOUNDS SUCH AS THOSE CAUSED BY DIABETIC COMPLICATIONS, RADIATION TISSUE DAMAGE, CRUSH INJURIES AND INFECTIONS CAN BE ADDRESSED AT THE OUTPATIENT CENTER FOR WOUND CARE. CARDIOPULMONARY/RESPIRATORY THERAPY, PHYSICAL, OCCUPATIONAL AND SPEECH THERAPY, HOME HEALTH, HOSPICE AND BEREAVEMENT SERVICES ARE ALSO OFFERED FOR INPATIENTS, OUTPATIENTS AND FOR THE HOMEBOUND.THE CENTER FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH OFFERS MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ON AN OUTPATIENT BASIS FOR ADULTS, INCLUDING GERIATRICS, AND CHILDREN, AGES SIX AND ABOVE. DURING FY11, HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL SERVED 4,784 INPATIENTS, INCLUDING NEWBORNS, PROVIDED SERVICES TO 64,092 OUTPATIENTS AND HAD 27,920 EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS. HALIFAX REGIONAL PARTICIPATES IN BOTH MEDICARE AND MEDICAID AND, BASED UPON ITS MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDES SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUALS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. AS A COMMUNITY-OWNED, NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION, HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL TAKES PRIDE IN ITS MISSION TO PROVIDE CARE TO ALL CITIZENS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY.HALIFAX COUNTY UNINSURED AND UNEMPLOYED STATISTICS, AS WELL AS THOSE IN THE SURROUNDING COUNTIES, ARE SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN THE PERCENTAGES FOR THE STATE OF VIRGINIA. ALTHOUGH THE PROVISION OF HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO A GROWING UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED POPULATION WHILE MAINTAINING FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY IS ONE OF THE GREATEST CHALLENGES THAT HOSPITALS FACE, WE BELIEVE THAT A LACK OF FINANCIAL RESOURCES SHOULD NEVER GET IN THE WAY OF A PATIENT RECEIVING ESSENTIAL HEALTH SERVICES. HRH'S PATIENT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY IS DESIGNED TO OFFER LOW-INCOME, UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED PATIENTS DISCOUNTED CHARGES AT INCREASED PERCENTAGES OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES (FPG). THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES A 32 PERCENT DISCOUNT FROM CHARGES FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE REGARDLESS OF INCOME. A MEDICALLY INDIGENT DISCOUNT IS PROVIDED FOR INDIVIDUALS AT THE 226% TO 275% FPG BASED UPON TOTAL MEDICAL RELATED BILLS. IN ADDITION TO THE ONGOING COMMUNICATIONS OF THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM THROUGH BROCHURES, POSTINGS THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITAL AND INFORMATION PROVIDED DIRECTLY TO PATIENTS, THE HOSPITAL PLACES AN AD IN LOCAL NEWSPAPERS QUARTERLY TO PUBLICIZE THE PROGRAM. ALTHOUGH THE CHARITY CARE AND UNCOMPENSATED CARE PROVIDED BY HRH INCREASES ANNUALLY, HRH CONSISTENTLY RANKS BY VIRGINIA HEALTH INFORMATION AS ONE OF THE LOWEST CHARGE HOSPITALS IN THE COMMONWEALTH. IN FY11, THE HOSPITAL PROVIDED $12,277,996 IN UNCOMPENSATED CARE (CHARITY AND BAD DEBT) OR 6.1 PERCENT OF PATIENT REVENUE.IN ADDITION, THE UN-REIMBURSED VALUE OF PROVIDING CARE TO PATIENTS INSURED BY THE MEDICARE AND MEDICAID PROGRAMS WAS $94,746,988 OR 47 PERCENT OF PATIENT REVENUE. COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SERVICES & EDUCATION ------------------------------------------------- HALIFAX REGIONAL HOSPITAL ENCOURAGES ITS STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS TO CONTINUE THE CARING TRADITIONS OF THOSE CITIZENS WHO WORKED SO DILIGENTLY TO ESTABLISH THE HOSPITAL IN THE EARLY 1950S.TODAY, MANY EMPLOYEES, PHYSICIANS AND VOLUNTEERS HELP STRENGTHEN THE COMMUNITY BY ADDRESSING VARIOUS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS.WHETHER SPONSORING A HEALTH FAIR, PARTICIPATING IN A CHAMBER OF COMMERCE PROJECT, SENDING A SPEAKER TO A SCHOOL CLASSROOM OR CIVIC CLUB, PARTNERING WITH OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL OUTREACH SERVICES OR DONATING TO ORGANIZATIONS WITH SIMILAR MISSIONS TO HELP IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR RESIDENTS OF ALL AGES, HALIFAX REGIONAL IS PROUD TO BE A GOOD CORPORATE CITIZEN AND TO TAKE A LEADERSHIP ROLE IN THE WELL-BEING OF ALL CITIZENS IN THE REGION.SOME OF THESE ACTIVITIES, SERVICES, JOINT SPONSORSHIPS AND OTHER PROGRAMS ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. PROGRAM SERVICES FORM 990, PART III - LINE 4 (CONTINUED) AVOID THE FLU CAMPAIGN - THIS COMMUNITY AWARENESS CAMPAIGN IS CONTINUED EACH YEAR TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC BEFORE AND DURING FLU SEASON.
