Part X:Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:In order to account for any uncertain tax positions, ASC Topic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, requires an organization to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination of the technical merits of the position, assuming the taxing authority has full knowledge of all information. If the tax position does not meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the benefit of that position is not recognized in the financial statements. The Medical Center recorded no assets or liabilities related to uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits in 2010 or 2009. Federal tax returns for the years ended September 30, 2007, 2008, and 2009, remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Costing Method UsedPart I, Line 7: a cost to charge ratio from worksheet 2 is utilized in computing the costs for charity care and unreimbursed medicaid. for the other categories (community health improvement services/community benefit operations, health professions education and cash and in-kind contributions, Direct costs of each benefit plus 17% for overhead allocation is used to report the costs.CostingMethodUsed
Bad Debt FootnotePart III, Line 4: Ratio of patient care costs to charges. As a critical access hospital, we have to offer our community essential healthcare services regardless of their ability or willingness to pay.BadDebtFootnote
Shortfall As Community BenefitPart III, Line 8: Ripon medical Center has a surplus of reimbursement from medicare because of their critical access status which allows reimbursement at a rate of 101% of allowed costs. However, Ripon Medical Center believes that if there were a shortfall, the costs should be treated as community benefit because the community which the organization serves has Medicare as the largest payer. The organization must accept these patients regardless of whether they make a surplus or deficit from providing such services. if the Medicare participation is premised on this fact, then providing Medicare services promotes access to healthcare services which is a community benefit. The demographic of the community is also an aging and underserved population who experience issues with access to healthcare services. Without tax-exempt hospitals providing medicare services, cms would bear the burden of directly providing services to the elderly.ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit
Debt Collection PolicyPart III, Line 9b: Free or discounted care for essential health services will be provided to uninsured and underinsured patients who meet the established criteria and complete the required application and review process.
