        <ReturnReference>Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>BAPTIST MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE CORPORATION ADOPTED THE PROVISIONS OF ASC TOPIC 740, INCOME TAXES (FORMERLY FASB INTERPRETATION NO. 48, ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES-AN INTERPRETATION OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 109), ON OCTOBER 1, 2009. APPLICATION OF ASC TOPIC 740 TO A TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION IS PRIMARILY DIRECTED AT THE CHARACTERIZATION OF INCOME AS TAX EXEMPT (RELATED OR EXCLUDED EXEMPT FUNCTION INCOME) AND/OR TAXABLE AS UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME AS DEFINED IN THE CODE. BAPTIST MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE CORPORATION EVALUATED THE EFFECT OF ASC TOPIC 740 AND DETERMINED THAT NO ADJUSTMENTS TO ITS COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WERE REQUIRED UPON THE ADOPTION OF ASC TOPIC 740 ON OCTOBER 1, 2009. AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2010, BAPTIST MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE CORPORATION HAD NOT IDENTIFIED ANY UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS UNDER ASC TOPIC 740 REQUIRING ADJUSTMENTS TO ITS COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. IN THE EVENT BAPTIST MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE CORPORATION WERE TO RECOGNIZE INTEREST AND PENALTIES RELATED TO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS, IT WOULD BE RECOGNIZED IN THE COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS INTEREST EXPENSE. GENERALLY, TAX YEARS 2006 THROUGH 2009 ARE OPEN TO EXAMINATION BY THE FEDERAL AND STATE TAXING AUTHORITIES, RESPECTIVELY. THERE ARE NO INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS CURRENTLY IN PROCESS.</Explanation>

        <BadDebtFootnote>Part III, Line 4: FROM THE CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENT OF BAPTIST MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES:IN DECEMBER 2010, THE FASB RATIFIED ISSUE 09-H, HEALTH CARE ENTITIES: PRESENTATION AND DISCLOSURE OF NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE, PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS, AND THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. THIS REQUIRES HEALTH CARE ENTITIES TO PRESENT THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS AS A COMPONENT OF NET REVENUES WITHIN THE REVENUE SECTION OF THE STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS. AS PRESENTLY WRITTEN, A HEALTH CARE ENTITY IS REQUIRED TO DISCLOSE (a) ITS POLICY FOR CONSIDERING COLLECTIBILITY IN THE TIMING AND AMOUNT OF REVENUE AND BAD DEBT RECOGNIZED, (b) PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE (NET OF CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCES AND DISCOUNTS) BEFORE ANY PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS, AND (c) A TABULAR RECONCILIATION, DESCRIBING THE MATERIAL ACTIVITY IN THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS FOR THE PERIOD BY MAJOR PAYOR CLASS. NONPUBLIC ENTITIES WILL BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE THE NEW DISCLOSURES AND STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS PRESENTATION IN FISCAL YEARS BEGINNING AFTER DECEMBER 15, 2011, WITH EARLY ADOPTION PERMITTED. THE REQUIREMENT TO REPORT THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS AS A COMPONENT OF THE NET REVENUE WILL BE APPLIED RETROSPECTIVELY FOR ALL PERIODS PRESENTED, WHILE THE NEW DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS WILL BE APPLIED PROSPECTIVELY. ON DECEMBER 8, 2010, THE FASB ANNOUNCED THEY WERE AGAIN SEEKING PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THIS ISSUE. BAPTIST MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE CORPORATION HAS NOT EARLY-ADOPTED OR DETERMINED THE EFFECT ON THEIR COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.THE COSTING METHODOLGY USED IN DETERMINING THE AMOUNTS REPORTED ON LINES 2 AND 3: A BAD DEBT REPORT IS RUN TO PULL ALL PATIENTS THAT HAVE BEEN MOVED TO A BAD DEBT ACCOUNT LOCATION. WE TAKE THE TOTAL ACCOUNT BALANCE OF ALL THE PATIENTS IN THE BAD DEBT LOCATION AND DIVIDE IT BY THE TOTAL CHARGES OF THE SAME PATIENT POPULATION. WE MULTIPLY THE RESULTING RATIO BY THE TOTAL COST OF THE SAME PATIENT POPULATION. THIS GIVES US THE COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE ACCOUNT BALANCE MOVED TO THE BAD DEBT STATUS.WE RUN A QUERY OUT OF OUR INTERNAL DATA WAREHOUSE SYSTEM THAT IDENTIFIES THIS PATIENT POPULATION. THIS INFORMATION IS ENTERED INTO THE STANDARD NOTE SECTION OF EACH PATIENT RECORD. WE QUALIFY OUR PATIENT QUERY BY THE STANDARD NOTES THAT REPRESENT WHEN A PATIENT REFUSES TO COMPLETE THE PAPERWORK, IF THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE PATIENT IS INCOMPLETE, OR WHEN A SELF-PAY MINIMUM DISCOUNT NOTE IS ENTERED ON THE PATIENT RECORD. WE THEN TAKE THIS PATIENT POPULATION AND RUN A REPORT THAT GIVES US THE TOTAL COST OF THE PATIENT POPULATION.</BadDebtFootnote>
        <ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit>Part III, Line 8: WE CAN'T GET THE PAYMENT AND MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COST INFORMATION FROM THE COST REPORT IN THE FORMAT THAT WE NEED, SO WE DO THE FOLLOWING. FOR LINE 5, WE TAKE THE TOTAL PAYMENTS FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS FROM SCHEDULE 6 PATIENT POPULATION AND DIVIDE THAT BY THE TOTAL HOSPITAL MEDICARE PAYMENTS. WE MULTIPLY THE RESULTING RATIO BY THE REVENUE NUMBERS THAT COME FROM THE COST REPORT. FOR LINE 6, WE USE THE SAME CONCEPT TO GET THE COST INFORMATION. WE GET THE TOTAL COST OF MEDICARE PATIENTS FROM SCHEDULE 6 AND DIVIDE THAT NUMBER BY THE TOTAL COST OF THE TOTAL MEDICARE PATIENT POPULATION OF THE HOSPITAL. WE THEN MULTIPLY THIS RATIO BY THE COST INFORMATION FROM THE COST REPORT.</ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit>

        <NeedsAssessment>Part VI, Line 2: BAPTIST MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE CORPORATION, AS SOLE MEMBER OF THE HOSPITAL, PROVIDES NEEDS ASSESSMENTS THROUGH THE HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH DEPARTMENT. IN ADDITION, LOCAL ADVISORY BOARDS PROVIDE FEEDBACK TO THE LOCAL HOSPITAL ADMINISTRATORS. THE HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH DEPARTMENT USES VARIOUS TOOLS TO ASSIST THEM IN THE ASSESSMENTS.ONE OF THESE TOOLS USED BY HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH DEPARTMENT IS YACOUBIAN RESEARCH, INC. COMMUNITY OPINION SURVEY. THIS IS A QUARTERLY RANDOM-DIGIT DIALING TELEPHONE SURVEY. THE MEMPHIS METRO MARKET HAS 500 RESPONDENTS PER QUARTER. SURVEYS INCLUDE QUESTIONS ASKING RESPONDENTS TO GRADE THE QUALITY OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES IN THEIR COMMUNITY. THE SERVICES ARE GRADED FROM A-F. IF A SERVICE IS GIVEN A RATING OF C OR BELOW, THE RESPONDENTS ARE ASKED FOR IDEAS FOR IMPROVEMENT. THESE CAN BE REVIEWED BY AREA, COUNTY, TOWN, ZIP CODE, AGE, GENDER, AND RACE. THE IMPROVEMENTS REQUESTED GENERALLY INVOLVE REQUESTS FOR MORE AND BETTER DOCTORS AND STAFF, AND LESS WAIT TIME. MEDICAL STAFF SURVEYS ARE ALSO USED TO ASSESS NEEDS. THESE ARE CONDUCTED BY MAIL OR INTERNET (WHICH EVER IS PREFERRED BY THE RESPONDENT) BY PRESS-GANEY, A NATIONALLY KNOWN RESEARCH COMPANY FOR BOTH PATIENT SATISFACTION AND PHYSICIAN SATISFACTION. IN THIS SURVEY, CONDUCTED EVERY OTHER YEAR, RESPONDENTS ARE QUESTIONED ABOUT THE NEED FOR NEW SERVICES OR PHYSICIAN SPECIALTIES IN THE HOSPITAL OR COMMUNITY. THERE ARE USUALLY MULTI-PHYSICIAN RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT AND CERTAIN TYPES OF PHYSICIAN SPECIALISTS. THIS IS USED AS A STARTING POINT FOR DETERMINING POTENTIAL PRIORITIES FOR PHYSICIAN RECRUITING.COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR ADDITIONAL PHYSICIANS IN THE COMMUNITY IS ALSO CONDUCTED. POPULATION-BASED DEMAND ESTIMATES ARE OBTAINED FROM THE MEDSTAT INFORUM MEDI-EDGE SOFTWARE, AND TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE AGE AND GENDER OF THE POPULATION. THIS IS THEN COMPARED TO THE SUPPLY OF PHYSICIANS AS DETERMINED THROUGH SEVERAL DIFFERENT SOURCES-INCLUDING OUR OWN CALLING OF OFFICES TO DETERMINE THE FULL TIME EQUIVALENT OF PHYSCIANS AVAILABLE IN THE SPECIALTY OF INTEREST. THE DEMAND MINUS THE SUPPLY GIVES THE "NET NEED" CURRENTLY, AND IN 5 YEARS. THE REQUEST FOR THESE ANALYSES ARE MADE BY THE HOSPITAL'S CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS' BASED ON THE PRIORITIES GIVEN BY THE MEDICAL STAFF AND ACCORDING TO KNOWLEDGE OF CERTAIN PHYSICIANS THAT ARE LIKELY TO BE LEAVING THE AREA IN THE NEXT YEAR OR TWO. GENERALLY THE DEMAND AND SUPPLY ESTIMATES ARE FOR A GEOGRAPHIC AREA DEFINED BY THE HALF-WAY MARK BETWEEN OUR FACILITY AND THE COMMUNITY HAVING A SIMILAR SIZED MEDICAL FACILITY OF A COMPETITOR. IN LARGER MARKET AREAS, THE PHYSICIAN NEEDS ARE GENERALLY CONCENTRATED AROUND HIGHLY SPECIALIZED PHYSICIANS WHO MAY BE LEAVING OR RETIRING. THE SOFTWARE PACKAGE HAS MODULES THAT ARE USED TO DETERMINE THE NEED FOR NEW FACILITIES, SUCH AS HOSPITALS, URGENT CARE CENTERS, EXPANDED EMERGENCY ROOMS, ETC. THIS IS REVIEWED IF THERE IS AN INCREASE IN POPULATION GROWTH.PATIENT SATISFACTION SURVEYS ARE ANOTHER TOOL USED TO ASSESS NEED. PRESS GANEY MAILS SURVEYS EVERY TWO WEEKS TO A RANDOM SAMPLE OF DISCHARGED PATIENTS. THE GOAL IS TO GET APPROXIMATELY 350 COMPLETED SURVEYS PER YEAR IN EACH OF THE VARIOUS CARE SETTINGS PER FACILITY. THESE CARE SETTINGS INCLUDE INPATIENT, OUTPATIENT, EMERGENCY ROOMS, OUTPATIENT SURGERY, OUTPATIENT DIAGNOSTICS, HOME HEALTH CARE, URGENT CARE CENTERS, ETC. BASED ON THESE SURVEYS, THE NEED FOR SPECIFIC CHANGES IN PROCESSES OR TYPES OF PERSONNEL ARE ASSESSED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE.NATIONAL RESEARCH CORPORATION IS A RESEARCH COMPANY THAT INTERVIEWS 600 PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY SERVICE AREA EACH YEAR VIA THE INTERNET. THESE PEOPLE ARE A PART OF A PANEL SELECTED TO REPRESENT THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE COMMUNITY. THIS SURVEY PROVIDES AN ON-LINE TOOL FOR DETERMINING SELF-REPORTED PERCENTAGES WITH CHRONIC CONDITIONS AND USE OF PREVENTIVE SERVICES IN AREAS OF SIMILAR SIZE AND CHARACTERISTICS AROUND THE COUNTRY.</NeedsAssessment>
