DescriptionOrthopedics, Neurology and Rehabilitation:The Ortho/Neuro/Rehab program at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center is a comprehensive program of inpatient and outpatient services designed to restore optimal function and independence to individuals who are impaired due to orthopedic or neurological illness or injury. More information is on Schedule O.Orthopedics, Neurology and Rehabilitation: Expenses - $61,416,758; Revenue - $65,404,479.From hip, knee and shoulder replacement to other commonly performed orthopedic procedures like hand, foot and ankle and spine and back surgery, Fort Sanders Regional (FSR) possesses a commitment to service excellence and to improving the patient experience in every way. Its commitment is reflected in the comprehensive care provided orthopedic surgery patients, including: * In-depth education that fully prepares patients for surgery and recovery; * Infection prevention protocols that minimize infection risks; * Experienced, specialized surgeons and operating room teams that use state-of-the-art techniques; * A dedicated inpatient nursing unit staffed by expert nurses and caregivers who know how to help patients recover from orthopedic surgery; and * A wide array of inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation and therapy services to help patients return to an active lifestyle.At the FSR Joint and Spine Center, patients undergoing knee or hip replacement surgeries are not treated as "sick" but as healthy adults undergoing a procedure that will allow them to return to an active life. The goal is to get patients out of bed and moving as quickly as possible. This is accomplished through education, surgical expertise and intense physical therapy. Patients are provided information about joint replacement and are challenged to take the lead in their recovery. Patients go through the program with a family member, who is designated as the patient's "Coach" and is taught how to assist the patient at home.Outpatient rehabilitation services are provided on the hospital campus and at a network of community based outpatient therapy centers. These centers offer a wide variety of therapy services, many of which are unique in the community. They include: * Physical, occupational and speech therapy, * Wound care, * Aquatic therapy, * Lymphedema treatment, * Low-vision and adaptive driving programs, * Certified hand therapy, * Vestibular rehabilitation, and * Functional capacity evaluations.In 2010 the hospital had 10,642 Wound Care Center patient visits and 71,052 Outpatient Physical Therapy visits.Conditions and diseases of the brain, spinal cord and nervous system can affect how people walk, talk, comprehend and function. FSR's neurologists specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy, tumors, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis. As a Neuro-Spine Center of Excellence, FSR has made the commitment to offer the latest advancements in neurology, neurosurgery, spine surgery, and neuro-interventional radiology. Whether a patient needs medical, surgical or neuro-radiological intervention, the goal is to provide the most appropriate care to optimize patient outcome. In 2010 there were 298 interventional neuro-radiology cases - made up of 150 aneurysm coilings, 136 IVC filter placements, and 12 stroke treatments.At the Fort Sanders Sleep Disorders Center, the area's first accredited sleep center, neurologists work with patients who suffer from a host of sleep/wake disorders including sleep apnea, insomnia, narcolepsy, and restless leg syndrome. The Center saw 788 patients in 2010.Fort Sanders' neurosurgeons provide surgical intervention for brain tumors, aneurysms and hemorrhages, as well as a host of spine conditions. They also provide surgical relief for issues caused by nerve and muscle diseases, carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic back pain and conditions resistant to medical management, like Parkinson's disease.An example of the hospital's commitment to state-of-the-art technology is the StealthStation Treon, which helps guide Fort Sanders neurosurgeons through a variety of operations, including neurological and spinal procedures. This innovative 3D-imaging system uses global positioning technology to give physicians real time views inside the body, without radiation. This innovative technology allows less invasive operations and helps avoid brain and nerve damage.Strokes are the third leading cause of death in the United States and affect more than 795,000 Americans each year. As a Stroke Center of Excellence, the care provided by FSR and Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center physicians and staff utilizes state-of-the-art diagnostic, treatment and rehabilitation modalities. The hospital holds a Primary Stroke Center certification from the Joint Commission (one of only a handful in the state of Tennessee) as well three separate stroke accreditations from the Commission on the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). In 2010 the hospital's Core Measure compliance related to strokes was 98.56%, and it had 369 stroke patient admissions.FSR was the first facility in the area to combine CT and bi-plane angiography with a full-time neuro-interventional radiologist to provide our region with new, minimally-invasive options for treating stroke, aneurysms, and other vascular diseases in the brain. With this system, neuro-interventional radiology procedures can be performed that would have previously required surgery and an extended hospital stay or would not have been options for some patients.Bi-plane technology improves imaging and resolution creating comprehensive 3D views of the blood vessels in the brain. Having a more precise picture of an abnormality makes it easier to diagnose and repair. A team of specialized technologists and nurses work to assist the performing radiologist with each procedure. All technologists are certified by the American Association of Radiological Technologists. Micro-catheters are inserted through the groin and then guided to the area of treatment to administer medications, coil aneurysms or retrieve clots. These new procedures often involve very short hospital stays, all while keeping radiation exposure to a safe minimum and avoiding major surgery.The Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center is East Tennessee's recognized leader in helping stroke, spinal cord, brain injury, orthopedic and cancer patients rebuild their lives through the delivery of optimal rehabilitation services. Opened in 1978 as an integral part of the Ortho/Neuro/Rehab program at FSR, the PNRC offers a comprehensive team approach to care. Physical, occupational, recreational, behavioral medicine and speech language therapists work with nurses and physiatrists - doctors whose specialty is physical medicine and rehabilitation. This team develops the best individual care plan to return patients to their recovery potential as quickly as possible. Rehabilitation nurses and other specialists also educate patients, teaching them self-care skills to function as well as possible upon returning home. The Center holds 15 separate accreditations from the Commission on the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) and provides a comprehensive array of inpatient rehabilitation services that would otherwise be unavailable in the community. FSR is committed to maintaining access to unique services such as those at the Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center. Through donations and other community support, the hospital, through the Fort Sanders Foundation, provides scholarships to allow patients with limited resources access to the rehab center's services.The Patricia Neal Innovative Recreation Cooperative (IRC), a service of the PNRC, was created in 1994 to meet the needs of individuals who have suffered a life-changing illness or injury. The program was designed to be part of the continuum of care in the rehabilitation process. Its scope is to host clinics under an umbrella of education and awareness: education to teach leisure skills to enhance quality of life in a safe environment and awareness to heighten the understanding of disabilities to the community. In its existence, the IRC has seen over 7,000 participants and volunteers. The goal is to remove all the barriers to develop each individual's right to self-directed leisure for a healthier lifestyle. This program is supported by community donations, grants and a hospital subsidy.Older adults are a significant portion of the patient population in Ortho/Neuro/Rehab. FSR is a NICHE (Nurses Improving Care for Health System Elders) site committed to special health care for older adults and was the first NICHE-certified facility in the East Tennessee region. Care is provided to help prevent complications such as skin breakdowns, falls/ injuries, pain, acute confusion, and the loss of strength and mobility.Description

DescriptionSurgical Services: Quality of care and patient safety are the top priorities at Fort Sanders Regional. The quality of care at Fort Sanders Regional has been recognized by the Joint Commission that inspects hospitals, the US Department of Health and leading independent standards associations. The focus in the surgical area is to reduce the risk of wound infection after surgery. This is achieved primarily by making sure our patients get the right medicines at the right time on the day of surgery. Success in preventing infection is measured by core measures which are compared to the national and state average. Fort Sanders Regional's core measures rank above both state and national averages on all measures. More information is on Schedule O.Surgical Services: Expenses: $48,030,389 Revenue: $51,582,673Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center has the capability to provide extensive surgical procedures for patients in East Tennessee. The surgery program offers patients numerous options, utilizing the latest surgical technology available in addition to traditional surgical options such as advanced laparoscopy and day surgery procedures. Nearly 10,000 surgeries were performed at Fort Sanders Regional in 2010.As an adjunct to its goal to provide an array of minimally invasive surgical procedures, Fort Sanders Regional introduced the da Vinci Robotics system to East Tennessee in December 2004. Since that time, the hospital has used the system to perform: * More than 350 prostatectomies, * The first robotically-assisted lung removal surgery in the state, * One of the first robotically-assisted gynecological procedures in the area and, most recently, * The first cardiac single valve replacement in the region.Through robotics technology, surgeons are given greater precision and control. The surgeon's hand and finger movements are performed on a computer through tiny incisions. The small incisions mean less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a quicker recovery for patients. For cardiac patients, the use of the robotics system can prevent the need to crack open the patient's chest bone, again reducing recovery times and complications.In addition to robotics technology, Fort Sanders Regional surgeons perform numerous procedures using a laparoscope. Laparoscopic surgery has become the procedure of choice for many patients and surgeons in the East Tennessee area because it offers less scarring, less pain and a more rapid recovery. A laparoscope is a narrow, tube-like instrument with a camera and light on the tip. The camera is connected to a television screen, giving surgeons a magnified view of the treatment area. The laparoscope is designed to allow physicians to see tissue and organs inside the abdominal cavity without fully opening it with a surgical incision. For most procedures, the scope is inserted either through the abdominal wall or belly button. Long surgical instruments are inserted through the scope to repair medical problems. Most laparoscopic surgeries are performed on an outpatient basis, with patients in the hospital less than 24 hours. Recovery time is greatly minimized with most patients returning to work in just three to five days.Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center supports surgical procedures in multiple specialty areas: * Cardiothoracic Surgery * Cardiovascular Surgery * Colon/Rectal Surgery * Day Surgery * General Surgery * Neurosurgery * Orthopedic Surgery * Plastic Surgery * Surgical Oncology * Thoracic Surgery * Vascular SurgeryFort Sanders Regional is particularly strong in three of these areas: cardiovascular surgery, vascular surgery, and surgical oncology.The cardiovascular surgery program includes surgical procedures to correct abnormalities within the heart and/or great vessels. Some of the more common procedures are coronary artery bypass, valve repair or replacement, correction of congenital heart defects and repair of aortic aneurysms. As part of the facility's Cardiology Center of Excellence, Fort Sanders Regional is the only facility in the region to have both a surgical and catheter based approach to treating atrial fibrillation. The hospital had 1,098 cardiac surgery cases in 2010.Vascular surgery is the branch of surgery that involves the repair of arteries and veins, as well as treatments for diseases of the peripheral vascular system. Common procedures performed by vascular surgeons include: abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, varicose veins, stenting of peripheral vessels, and more. The hospital had 812 vascular surgery cases in 2010.Surgical oncology is the branch of surgery which focuses on the surgical management of cancer. The medical staff at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center includes general surgical oncologists as well as thoracic surgical oncologists, gynecologic oncologists and other sub-specialists that specialize in treating cancer patients.Description

DescriptionOncology Services: Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center features extensive inpatient and outpatient oncology care provided by exceptional oncologists who practice throughout the Knoxville area. In 2010 there were 1,618 admissions to the oncology unit with 9,504 patient days. More information is on Schedule O.Oncology Services: Expenses - $34,641,673; Revenue - $35,583,497.The Oncology Center of Excellence at Fort Sanders Regional offers a comprehensive approach to patient care which minimizes patient disruption and maximizes clinical quality and efficiency. Cancer patients and their families can be assured their loved ones will receive the most complete and exceptional oncology care available.

Chemotherapy-trained nurses work with oncologists to make sure each patient receives the correct chemotherapy drug, in the right dosage cycle, every time. Within the Oncology Center of Excellence, many of the nurses are also oncology certified at a national level. They have dedicated more than 1,000 hours to caring for cancer patients and have successfully completed a national certification examination demonstrating their specialized knowledge in this field. Staff attends special lectures and conferences hosted by local and national medical oncologists and radiation oncologists to keep up with the newest innovative treatments available.Fort Sanders Regional's emphasis on oncology knowledge and expertise isn't just limited to nurses. Each staff member on the oncology unit is also uniquely trained in the care of cancer patients. The oncology team includes a dedicated oncologic pharmacist, dietician, social worker, and RN case manager. This team communicates regularly to ensure the excellent patient care from admission to discharge. From the hospital's dieticians, to its pharmacists and radiologists, and to its housekeeping staff, Fort Sanders Regional has done a lot of work to provide oncology education to every employee who may come in contact with our patients. By completing this 360 degree education we provide better patient care. Safety is the number one priority in the Oncology Center of Excellence. Due to the nature and potency of the medications used in this area, strict safety processes are performed by doctors, pharmacists and certified nurses who work as a team to double and triple check these medications for accuracy. The Oncology Center of Excellence at Fort Sanders Regional holds the prestigious Certificate of Approval from the Commission on Cancer. The Commission on Cancer Certification is awarded only to facilities with oncology programs committed to providing the best comprehensive cancer care. The Oncology Nursing Unit also serves as the inpatient component of the Stem Cell Center which is based at the Thompson Cancer Survival Center. This Stem Cell treatment center in conjunction with our Oncology Nursing Unit has accomplished accreditation by the Foundation of Accreditation for Cellular Therapy, also known as FACT.Surgical oncology is the branch of surgery which focuses on the surgical management of cancer. The Medical Staff at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center includes general surgical oncologists as well as thoracic surgical oncologists, gynecologic oncologists and other sub-specialists that specialize in treating cancer patients. Outcomes in surgical cancer care are positively associated to surgeon volume -- i.e. the more cancer cases a surgeon treats, the more proficient he becomes, thus improving overall outcomes and survival rates. Fort Sanders Regional's surgical oncologists handled 194 cases in 2010.Due to the close proximity of Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center to Thompson Cancer Survival Center, the surgeons and staff at Fort Sanders Regional work closely with the cancer center's multidisciplinary treatment teams in the collaboration of care and treatment plans for patients with chest and breast cancer. A team of cancer specialists in differing areas of expertise, including surgeons, gather and evaluate each patient's case to determine possible treatment options. Each specialist then meets individually with the patient to go over treatment choices and answer questions. As part of its outpatient oncology care, Fort Sanders Regional has opened four outpatient Infusion Centers in the area providing many of the chemotherapy medications for cancer patients. About 15,810 infusions were performed in the infusion centers in 2010.Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, through the Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center, is the only place in East Tennessee, and one of a handful in the country, who offers a cancer rehabilitation program. The cancer program combines many of the rehabilitation techniques currently used for patients with brain and spinal cord injuries and strokes because the impairments cancer patients experience can be very similar to those of traumatic injuries. At the Center, the cancer rehab team creates a special care plan for each patient. The goal is to help patients regain as much ability and independence as possible. The health-care team includes: * Each patient's personal physician * Medical, radiation and surgical oncologists * Physiatrists - doctors whose specialty is physical medicine and rehabilitation * Rehabilitation nurses * Physical, occupational and recreational therapists * Psychologists * Speech language pathologists * Pharmacists * Dietitians * Case managers Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center treats many of the impairments that can result from cancer, cancer surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and other treatments, such as: * Fatigue * Muscle wasting * Weakness * Pain * Skin breakdown * Impaired mobility * Anxiety * Depression * Adjustment problems * Overall deconditioning * Lymphedema (swelling) * Weight loss * Communication difficulty * Impaired thinking or memory loss Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center has a positive, encouraging atmosphere.

Form990 Schedule H Part VI Form990ScheduleHPartVI (13 entries)

ExplanationExplanation
Part I, Line 6a: Covenant Health, the parent company of Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center and other affiliated acute care hospitals, prepares an annual Report to the Community on behalf of the entire system.
Part I, Line 7: Amounts on Lines 7a-7c are from the hospital's cost accounting system, which addresses all patient segments. Other community benefit expenses are at historical cost from the general ledger.
Part I, Line 7g: The organization has included $1,076,067 in physician sponsorship fees in total subsidized health services.
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 $ 14975758.
Part II: Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center supports the community building activities of its parent company, Covenant Health. An allocation of the Parent's community building expenditures has been made to each member hospital in proportion to the financial contribution of each to the health system. Covenant Health is not a hospital and does not file Schedule H with its Form 990.Community Building activities included cash and in-kind donations for the development of community health programs and partnerships. These activities include physical improvements and housing, economic development and support system enhancements like disaster readiness, mentoring programs, and youth asset development initiatives. Such programs address the root causes of health problems, such as poverty and homelessness due to lack of education and jobs.In 2010 the System provided Community Building support to many organizations, the most significant of which included: Catholic Charities of East Tennessee East TN Economic Development Agency Emerald Youth Foundation Great Schools Partnership Charitable Trust (for Knox Co. schools) Innovation Valley Technology Council Second Harvest Food Bank of East TN Variety Children's Charity of East TN
Part III, Line 4: Note B to the 2010 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Covenant Health system, of which Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center is a member, reads: "Patient accounts receivable are reported net of both an estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts and an estimated allowance for contractual adjustments. The contractual adjustment represents the difference between established billing rates and estimated reimbursement from Medicare, TennCare and other third-party payment programs. Current operations for 2010 and 2009 include an estimated provision for bad debts, included in Supplies and Other in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is estimated based upon the age of the patient accounts receivable, prior experience and any unusual circumstances (such as local, regional or national economic conditions) which affect the collectability of receivables, including management's assumptions about conditions it expects to exist and courses of action it expects to take. Covenant's policy does not require collateral or other security for patient accounts receivable, and Covenant routinely accepts assignment of, or is otherwise entitled to receive, patient benefits payable under health insurance programs, plans or policies."Bad debt expense at cost on Line 2 was obtained from the hospital's cost accounting system from a listing of all accounts written off to bad debt.In the previous year, the hospital reviewed all patient accounts in bad debt status to identify persons who might have qualified for financial assistance. Notes in the patient record were reviewed to see if a patient or guarantor was sent a charity care application based on statements that they could not afford to pay all that they owed. The hospital could not make a final determination as to their qualification for financial assistance due to missing or incomplete information (i.e. charity care application was not returned to the hospital business office or supporting documentation was not provided) but felt strongly that the patients were in need of some form of assistance. The percentage of total bad debt at cost applicable to patients identified through this review process has been applied to the current year total bad debt at cost on Line 2 to arrive at the amount reported on Line 3.
Part III, Line 8: Costing Methodology: Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center used a combination of sources in calculating Medicare allowable costs on Part III, Line 6 including its cost accounting system, general ledger accounting system, and facility-specific analyses and calculations.
Part III, Line 9b: Self-pay patients automatically receive a minimum 46% discount on charges. Federal poverty guidelines are utilized in the determination of charity care eligibility. Patients who are unable to pay and have exhausted all sources of payment assistance may qualify for charity care. A sliding scale is used for extending charity care utilizing the income levels reported under the federal poverty guidelines. Patients/ guarantors with income that falls below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines receive 100% charity care. Patients/guarantors with income of 201-300% of the federal poverty guidelines receive 70% charity care.For catastrophic illness, exceptions to income and asset limitations may be made on a case-by-case basis. The amount considered for charity will be based upon the evaluation of the patient's/guarantor's ability to pay.
Part VI, Line 2: The hospital actively addresses a variety of identified needs in the community through its relationships with community based groups including the local health council, public health department, school systems, health coalitions, inter-agency council, and health-related not-for-profit organizations. Additionally, the East Tennessee 2-1-1 Information and Referral system is able to provide a profile of the health and social services most requested by the citizens of each county. This information serves as an ongoing assessment of basic health and human service needs and of what resources are lacking in each community.
Part VI, Line 3: Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center (FSRMC) posts a sign in each registration office that states: Financial Assistance: It is FSRMC's philosophy that no one shall be denied medically necessary services based on an inability to pay. Financial assistance applications for medically necessary services are available during the registration process or through our Financial Counselor's office. To apply for financial aid, please ask our registration staff or contact the Counselor's office at 541-2987.

It is the expressed philosophy of Covenant Health, and its member hospitals, that no one should be denied necessary medical care because of the inability to pay. In conjunction with this philosophy, staffs of Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center are available to assist you with your financial needs. If you are an uninsured person with no public or private source of payment for medical services, Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, in compliance with Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 47, Chapter 18 and Title 68, will provide at a reduced rate, medically indicated services. A financial counselor is available to assist you with these matters by calling 865-541-1112, Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.FSRMC employs full-time financial counselors that meet with each uninsured patient. In addition, FSRMC contracts with First Source Solutions, an eligibility service, that places a representative in the facility full time. This representative screens patients for eligibility, assists them with TennCare and disability enrollment, and ensures enrollment in the appropriate programs.The Charity Care Policy states that patients who are unable to pay and have exhausted all sources of payment assistance may be screened for potential charity care eligibility. According to the policy, the financial counselors initiate screening of the patient and/or guarantor by obtaining income and other financial information to determine eligibility for charity care or discounted services.
Part VI, Line 4: Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center is located in downtown Knoxville, Tennessee. Although located in metropolitan Knox County, Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center receives many specialty referrals from outlying hospitals and physicians and serves patients from 16 diverse counties, a mix of urban, suburban and rural. According to internal hospital data for 2010, slightly more than 52% of the inpatients discharged were Knox County residents. Sevier County provides Fort Sanders Regional with the second highest number of admissions compared to other counties in the region, nearly 11% of the total.According to 2008 data of the U.S. Census Bureau, the collective population of the 16-county region is 1,157,473, of which 51.2% are female and 48.8% are male. The racial makeup of the population is 94% Caucasian, 4.6% black, and 1.4% other races. There are 22 hospitals in the 16-county area which, with one exception, are tax exempt. The average income and percentage of the population with incomes below the federal poverty guideline within the 16 counties ranges from a low of $12,925 and 21% in Morgan County to a high of $21,875 and 14% in Knox County.According to a recently released study by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation/ University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute, Knox County residents have the following health indicators that are above the national benchmarks: Knox - TN - National Adult Smoking: 21% - 24% - 15% Adult Obesity: 29% - 31% - 25% Excessive Drinking: 11% - 9% - 8% Teen Birthrate: 39 - 55 - 22 of every 1,000 teenage girls Poor or Fair Health: 16% - 19% - 10%
Part VI, Line 6: Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center (FSRMC), in conjunction with its parent company, Covenant Health, uses any available surplus of receipts over disbursements to expand and modernize the facility and to support the education of healthcare professionals, both of which serve to improve patient care and serve the unmet needs of the community.Covenant Health's Board of Directors serves as FSRMC's board. It is comprised of independent community leaders with diverse educational and professional backgrounds. The board sets policies and provides oversight of FSRMC.FSRMC maintains an open medical staff, with privileges available to all qualified physicians. Additionally, the hospital operates an active and accessible emergency department that accepts all patients regardless of ability to pay.
Part VI, Line 7: Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center (FSRMC), as an affiliate of Covenant Health, benefits from the collaboration among all affiliated organizations as well as with other community-based resources to promote quality improvement, patient safety and efficiency of care delivery for the communities served. Through this combination of resources and the collective development, implementation and monitoring of clinical protocols and other improvement initiatives, the affiliated entities of Covenant Health are able to deliver higher quality care in a more efficient manner than could be achieved working independently. As a system, Covenant assures that business processes are in place in each facility to measure and report quality, to increase the role of compliance, and to integrate risk management, utilization review, peer review, mandatory reporting and quality improvement into one cohesive function. In this way, the system is able to use analytic tools to help identify any systemic inability to satisfy the various requirements on the part of the facilities. FSRMC, as a regional referral hospital, provides a wide range of acute care services, many of which are unique in the Covenant system. These services are therefore more easily accessible by other affiliated hospitals and health care organizations through transfer or referral helping to create a seamless continuum of care. The hospital, through its Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center division, is the only acute inpatient rehabilitation facility in the Covenant system and the largest such provider in the service area. Programming includes specialized services for stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury and other difficult patient populations with the primary goal of returning the patient home with the greatest gain in functional ability possible. FSRMC also provides hospital-based skilled nursing care which serves as either a bridge back home or as an important step along the continuum of care to other long term care resources.The hospital also provides other important services unique to the Covenant system including high risk obstetrical services and home infusion. The hospital operates the only outpatient diabetes center in the health system which serves a large community-based population with educational, dietary and other supportive medical services that would otherwise be unavailable or difficult to access. Co-located with the diabetes center, the Coumadin clinic serves to educate another vulnerable population as well as to monitor the therapeutic effectiveness of this drug. These services, the diabetes center and the Coumadin clinic, are important to preventing unnecessary hospitalizations through the provision of effective community-based care. FSRMC also provides other extensive outpatient services through its ambulatory infusion centers, physical therapy centers, a wound care center, and its cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation programs. FSRMC benefits from the access and availability of services within the Covenant system that are not provided by the hospital itself. For example, home health and hospice services are an important part of the continuum of care for a large portion of the hospital's patient population due to the complexity of care provided by the hospital. Also very important are the full range of community mental health and psychiatric hospital services that are available within the system which help support the hospital's emergency room as well as to provide an accessible and efficient pathway for those patients who require such services post discharge from the acute care hospital. The Covenant system also enhances the patient's access to care through the provision of services through a variety of outpatient settings located throughout the service area.FSRMC works closely with the Fort Sanders Foundation which seeks out community support through a variety of fund raising mechanisms. For example, the Fort Sanders Foundation helps to arrange sponsorship for significant fund raising activities of the Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center division of the hospital including an annual golf tournament that has become the largest single day fundraising event in the state of Tennessee. The proceeds of these events help fund needed equipment and facilities for the center as well as to provide access to the center's services for uninsured or underinsured individuals who are in need of intensive rehabilitation but would otherwise be denied such services due to the lack of resources. The foundation also provides temporary residential services through the Fellowship Center for patients of the hospital and their families that travel to Knoxville to receive needed care but are unable to afford the costs involved.The Fort Sanders Nursing Department at Tennessee Wesleyan College is an important affiliate of FSRMC. The school provides a baccalaureate nursing education helping to alleviate what is a shortage of registered nurses to serve a growing and aging population. It is a continuation of a nursing education tradition of the hospital that began more than eighty years ago. The hospital provides a substantial financial contribution to support the program. Training qualified nursing professionals to serve the current or future needs of the community is an important hospital mission. FSRMC is integrated with its community in a number of ways including its active participation in the development of a Fort Sanders Neighborhood District Long Range Plan. Fort Sanders is a densely populated urban neighborhood in the City of Knoxville. With its proximity to downtown, the location of two regional referral hospitals (FSRMC and East Tennessee Children's Hospital) in its boundaries along with the flagship campus of the University of Tennessee, it provides an ideal location for convenient access for residents and as a gateway to visitors. With these assets, it is imperative that the city and neighborhood leaders work together in order to coordinate quality growth while maintaining the rich character and history that give Fort Sanders its unique identity.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11A summary of Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center's 2010 Form 990 was prepared and presented to the Covenant Health Finance Committee and Board of Directors at their 2011 September and October meetings, respectively. This entity is one member of a large, integrated healthcare system which files a total of twelve (12) Form 990s. Prior to filing, the Board of Directors and Finance Committee had access to the 990s of all Covenant Health facilities.
Board members, officers and employees are required to adhere to rules and policies regarding conflicts of interest. Covenant Health, the parent company of the organization, distributes a Board-approved employee handbook to all employees. The handbook covers among other subjects, conflicts of interest. Additionally, managers are required to complete and sign an annual management certification that addresses conflicts of interest. Board members' conflicts of interests are dealt with in the corporate bylaws, and Board members are required to complete and sign a conflict of interest questionnaire on an annual basis. The Integrity Compliance Office maintains records that contain conflict of interest information obtained from Board members, officers and employees. These records are available to be queried prior to engaging in business transactions. The Integrity Compliance Officer initially reviews all conflict of interest data. Based on this information, the officer determines what conflicts of interest exist at that point in time. Between times when surveys are collected Board members are expected to disclose any new conflicts that have arisen that affect pending Board decisions. As well, managers and other employees are expected to report conflicts to the Integrity Compliance Officer as they arise. Depending on the nature of the conflict and the circumstances surrounding the conflict and transaction, the Integrity Compliance Officer, Senior Leadership, or the Board of Directors may review the conflict of interest. Where appropriate these bodies may also consult legal counsel. Restrictions imposed on persons with a conflict of interest are determined on a case by case basis. For Covenant Health employees, the Integrity Compliance Officer in conjunction with Executive Leadership determines how to appropriately handle the conflict. In any conflict involving a Board member, such member is expected to excuse himself or herself from voting on matters that give rise to the conflict.Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a: Overall compensation policies for Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, Covenant Health (Parent Company), and affiliates are set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which is comprised of independent members of the Board.

Service to the people and communities of East Tennessee is the cornerstone of the mission of Covenant Health, hereinafter referred to as "the System,' a community-owned health system which includes acute care hospitals, outpatient facilities and clinics, and numerous specialty services. The System's mission, "we serve the community by improving the quality of life through better health," has been the foundation of the services and programs offered by the System and its member organizations since it was formed through the consolidation of Fort Sanders Health System in Knoxville and MMC Healthcare System in Oak Ridge in 1996. The System is a community-owned healthcare system and provides comprehensive health services throughout East Tennessee. Headquartered in Knoxville, Tennessee, the System includes seven acute care hospitals with a total of more than 1,700 licensed beds, as well as numerous outpatient services and clinics. The System also includes specialty providers of behavioral, oncology, and rehabilitation services, along with home care, physician clinics, community wellness programs and managed care products and services. The System has more than 1,000 affiliated physicians and 9,000 employees. Covenant Health, a tax-exempt entity pursuant to section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, is the parent company and sole member of several controlled entities: Fort Loudoun Medical Center, Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, LeConte Medical Center, Methodist Medical Center of Oak Ridge, Morristown-Hamblen Hospital Association, Parkwest Medical Center, Peninsula, a Division of Parkwest Medical Center, Roane Medical Center, Thompson Cancer Survival Center, Covenant HomeCare and Fort Sanders Perinatal Center. These entities were established to provide healthcare services primarily to East Tennesseans in the surrounding 16-county area. Operating as an integrated network of health services, Covenant Health and its affiliates seek to provide affordable, superior healthcare to patients through continued operation of both acute care and non-hospital programs. The history of the System demonstrates a clear and consistent charitable purpose: the provision of healthcare services to all residents of the community without regard to age, race, gender, creed, national origin, ability to pay, or physical or mental handicap. Beyond the services documented in this report are countless acts of generosity by employees that will never be completely captured and reported, nor will they be forgotten by those who benefited from them. One of the most tangible expressions of the System's charitable purpose is the provision of care to people unable to pay. The System embraces its purpose and strives to grow the types of services not provided by other area health care providers; examples of such services include but are not limited to services provided by Peninsula, a Division of Parkwest, which provides inpatient and outpatient behavioral health services, and the Hope Center, which provides comprehensive support services for patients with HIV/AIDS and other serious illnesses, and their families and caregivers. The System provides medically necessary services to all people, regardless of their ability to pay. Patients who fall below 300 percent of the federal poverty income guidelines for a 12-month period, who are unable to pay, and who have exhausted all sources of payment assistance may be eligible for charity care. According to policy, patients whose annual income falls between 0-200% of federal poverty guidelines receive 100% discount while those whose income is between 201-300% of the federal poverty guidelines receive a 70% discount. For those who do not fall below the guidelines but are facing difficult economic circumstances, ability to pay is determined on a case-by-case basis. In particular, cases involving serious illness and/or unusually high-cost care are individually evaluated, and expectation of payment by the System is adjusted to recognize the reasonable ability of the individual patient to pay for services received. For the year ending December 31, 2010, the System provided services under the previously stated policy which resulted in significant losses to the System. Both inpatients and outpatients were provided care under the aforementioned policy. No patient was refused necessary medical care on the basis of his or her ability to pay. In addition to the level of services identified above, the System is an active participant in the State of Tennessee TennCare program. The System is the area's largest TennCare provider of services to residents of East Tennessee. The TennCare program seeks to provide payment for healthcare services to individuals who meet certain financial and categorical requirements. Financial requirements include evaluation of both assets and income. TennCare program reimbursement rates are substantially below Medicare reimbursement rates. In addition to the provision of care without expectation of payment or the provision of care to TennCare-eligible people at rates substantially below charges, the System provided services to people covered under the federal Medicare program. Medicare recipients were the largest single payor classification of patients served by the System. The payment rate for inpatient services was on a per case rate, calculated based on the diagnostic-related group into which the patient was categorized, coupled with other factors related to area wage rates, capital costs and other variables. Outpatient services were reimbursed on a pre-determined case rate. Moreover, the System works diligently throughout the year to achieve its mission by supporting community health education and outreach programs. The System underwrites the cost of community screenings, health fairs, outreach programs for seniors, outdoor fitness programs, community exercise classes, support groups for new parents and other specific populations, smoking cessation classes, and local wellness education programs. Notable examples of these programs include: Covenant Health Check, a multi-county annual screening event, now in its 27th year, which has served more than 150,000 people; Body Works, a multi-location exercise program for adults; Passport, an organization promoting health and active lifestyles for adults 50 and older; Monthly Lunch 'n Learns and Health Nights in Knox and surrounding counties; Covenant Health at the Mall, freestanding health information kiosks at two local malls; Community fitness events such as the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon and a bike ride and foot race held in conjunction with Knoxville's Dogwood Arts Festival; Wellness programs, support groups, and outreach services sponsored by Covenant Health's member hospitals. The system also funds two "hospitality house" outreach programs, one at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center in Knoxville, and one at Methodist Medical Center in Oak Ridge. These facilities provide temporary "homes away from home" for non-local patients and caregivers who are receiving ongoing medical treatment care at Covenant Health member organizations. The System is committed to education in order to prepare qualified nurses and other healthcare workers for the future, and to provide continuing education for current healthcare professionals. This support is shown in multiple ways, including support of Tennessee Wesleyan College-Fort Sanders Nursing, a baccalaureate level nursing education program offered under the auspices of Tennessee Wesleyan College in Athens, Tennessee, with classroom and clinical training opportunities offered in Knoxville and at various Covenant Health facilities. The System also provides clinical training rotations at its hospitals and member facilities for students in area nursing and ancillary health education programs. Additional program support and scholarships are given to students and to schools providing healthcare education throughout the area. Special programs are offered to high school and middle school students who are interested in careers in healthcare. Continuing education opportunities are provided for physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals on a variety of topics. During 2010, the System subsidized services related to sports medicine, services for women and children, and behavioral health assessments. Subsidized services are those services which are typically provided to meet an identified community need. If no longer offered, the services would either be unavailable in the area or fall to the responsibility of the government or another not-for-profit system to provide.Form 990, Part III, Line 1 - Report to the Community:
The system also designated specific amounts as Physician subsidies to support the recruitment by the System and its affiliates of physicians and other health professionals for areas underserved or specialties not adequately served in the community. High populations of Tenncare patients and uninsured patients typically reside in these areas. The System supported the important work of many unaffiliated organizations and charities during 2010. While the principal community donation by the System was in the area of indigent care, donations within the context of the organization's established charitable contribution policy were also made to other causes. More than 50 organizations received charitable contributions from Covenant Health and/or its member organizations in 2010, including: American Cancer Society American Heart Association Catholic Charities East Tennessee Children's Hospital Great Schools Partnership Holston Home for Children Innovation Valley Knoxville Track Club (for sponsorship of Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon) Senior Services Contributions and Sponsorships Susan G. Komen Foundation University of Tennessee Variety Children's Charity of East Tennessee Wellness Community Donations also included support of medical mission trips to Guatemala and Haiti. Community Building activities included cash, in-kind donations, and budgeted expenditures for the development of community health programs and partnerships. These activities include physical improvements and housing, economic development and support system enhancements like disaster readiness, mentoring programs, and youth asset development initiatives. In 2010 the System provided Community Building support to many organizations, including but not limited to: Boys & Girls Club Emerald Youth Foundation Family Promise of Knoxville Interfaith Health Clinic Knoxville Academy of Medicine Project Access Roane Alliance Second Harvest Food Bank United Way Wee Course Classic In a separate but related donation category, in 2010 employees of the System also contributed financially to the System's United Way drive and Covenant Health's We Care campaign, which raises funds for charitable services provided by the System such as patient assistance with medication costs, chaplain's fund for employees in need, hospitality houses for patients from outside the area, and nursing scholarship programs. The volunteer programs at the System's acute care organizations are active and vital parts of the System's success. Volunteers donate time and service to Fort Loudoun Medical Center, Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, LeConte Medical Center, Methodist Medical Center, Morristown-Hamblen Hospital Association, Parkwest Medical Center, Thompson Cancer Survival Center, and Covenant HomeCare. At the acute care facilities, volunteers include adults, college students and teenagers working in a variety of settings such as inpatient and outpatient facility departments, patient reception areas, gift shops, fellowship centers, etc. Funds raised by volunteers are donated for hospital equipment, supplies and special projects, as well as to meet charitable community needs.
