      <Description>NMMC-West Point serves Clay County and the surrounding area. In fiscal year 2010, there were over 2,500 inpatient admissions, over 16,100 emergency department visits, and over 28,400 outpatient visits. NMMC-West Point uses Press Ganey, the largest patient satisfaction survey company in the nation, that works with more than 7,000 healthcare facilities. Randomly selected patients are asked about their experience with inpatient, outpatient, ER, and long term care services. NMMC-West Point's remarkable design was inspired by the history and culture of this charming Southern community. Medical-surgical patient rooms are entered from a foyer area and open onto a private terrace. Rooms are "nested," which means four to six rooms are clustered around each nursing unit. This design reduces walking distance, allows nurses to view several patients from a central point, and provides closer access to medical equipment. Surgeons utilize four operating suites for a wide array of cases, including general, orthopedic and obstetrics-gynecology. The Same Day Surgery Unit features six rooms for outpatient surgery patients to rest before and after their procedure, as well as two endoscopy suites. The six-bed Intensive Care Unit offers invasive and non-invasive monitoring for medical and surgical patients. The hospital also has 10 licensed swing beds for patients who need extended care. The Women's Pavilion provides family-centered maternity services in a homelike environment. Mothers labor, deliver and recover in the same comfortable room. The nursery is equipped to care for healthy newborns as well as provide immediate stabilization of infants requiring intensive care. NMMC-West Point offers 24-hour emergency services at the Level III Trauma Center, as well as a paramedic-level ambulance service. Outpatient services include cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation programs, as well as physical, occupational and speech-language therapy. Cardiac stress tests and holter monitoring are also offered.</Description>
      <Activity2>
        <Description>One of the primary ways NMMC-West Point serves the community is by providing care to various populations for which it receives no compensation or receives compensation at rates significantly less than established rates. The board of directors of NMMC-West Point has established a policy under which the hospital provides care, without charge, to needy members of its community. The charity care policy states that NMMC-West Point will provide necessary hospital services to patients free of charge with household income levels based on the median income for Mississippi compared to the median income nationally. The Mississippi Adjusted Poverty Guidelines is approximately 75% of the federal poverty rate. The policy further provides patients with household income levels above the Mississippi Adjusted Poverty Guidelines will be liable for no more than the amount that their household income exceeds the applicable federal poverty guidelines. The policy applies to individuals who reside in Clay County. Patients from outside the county may also be granted charity care based on the judgment of NMMC-West Point management depending on their individual circumstances. The policy also requires the patient to cooperate fully with NMMC-West Point's request for information with which to verify the patient's eligibility. Following that policy, the hospital maintains records to identify and monitor the level of charity care it provides. These records include the amount of charges forgone for services and supplies furnished under its charity care policy. Charges forgone, based on established rates, totaled approximately $2,689,000 in fiscal year 2010. Based on the gross charges provided to charity patients compared to total hospital gross charges, 4% of all services in fiscal year 2010 were provided on a charity basis. The net cost of charity care provided by NMMC-West Point was approximately $1,165,000 in fiscal year 2010. The total cost estimate is based on the ratio of costs to charges for NMMC-West Point. All of the foregone charges mentioned above are netted against patient service revenue to arrive at net patient service revenue as reflected as program service revenue on Part VIII of Form 990 in order to be consistent with financial statement reporting and are not reported as functional expenses on the tax return.</Description>

        <IncomeBasedCriteria>Clay County Medical Corporation does not use the Federal Poverty Guidelines to determine eligibility for discounted care. The Federal Poverty Guidelines are used only for free care. Discounted care is given to anyone regardless of income level if they do not have insurance. Clay County Medical Corporation will provide its prevalent managed care discount to any patient that meets Clay County Medical Corporation's definition of uninsured (an individual having no third party coverage by commercial third party insurer, an ERISA plan, Medicare, Medicaid, SCHIP, Champus or other coverage for all or part of their bill).</IncomeBasedCriteria>
        <AnnualCommunityBenefitExpln>Clay County Medical Corporation's community benefit information is included in the community benefit report of its parent company, North Mississippi Health Services, Inc. North Mississippi Health Services (NMHS) is a diversified regional health care organization, which serves 24 counties in north Mississippi and northwest Alabama from headquarters in Tupelo, MS. The NMHS organization covers a broad range of acute diagnostic and therapeutic services, offered through North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo; a community hospital system with locations in Eupora, Iuka, Pontotoc, West Point, MS, and Hamilton AL; North Mississippi Medical Clinics, a regional network of more than 30 primary and specialty clinics; and nursing homes. NMHS offers a comprehensive portfolio of managed care plans.</AnnualCommunityBenefitExpln>
        <CostingMethodUsed>A cost to charge ratio was used for the amounts reported in the table for Line 7. The cost to charge ratio for Line 7 was calculated using Worksheet 2.</CostingMethodUsed>
        <SubsidizedHealthServicesExpln>Not Applicable</SubsidizedHealthServicesExpln>
        <PercentOfTotalExpenseExpln>Bad Debt Expense of $3,944,713 was included in total expense on Form 990, Part IX, Line 25, Column (A), but was subtracted from total expense for purposes of calculating the percentage of total expense in column (F).</PercentOfTotalExpenseExpln>
        <BadDebtFootnote>Clay County Medical Corporation's financial statements do not include a footnote specifically concerning bad debt. Bad debt is shown as a separate line item on the face of the income statement. The amount of bad debt booked each year is based on a review of outstanding receivables and their age from date of service. The older the account, the higher the reserve percentage used to estimate bad debt. Accounts are considered delinquent and subsequently written off as bad debts based on individual credit evaluations and specific circumstances of the account. The bad debt expense at cost in Part III Line 2 was calculated using the cost to charge ratio from Worksheet 2. Clay County Medical Corporation (CCMC) follows the Catholic Health Association guidelines and does not include bad debt in any community benefit amounts. CCMC, however, believes that some portion of bad debt results from patients who could qualify for charity care but has no way of making an estimate of the amount and therefore has answered "zero" for Part III Line 3.</BadDebtFootnote>
        <ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit>The ratio of cost to charges used in the calculation of costs for Medicare was taken from the Medicare Cost Report. Lines 5, 6, &amp; 7 do not include certain Medicare programs and costs and thus do not reflect all of the organization's revenues and costs associated with its participation in Medicare programs. Additional revenues and costs not reported on Lines 5, 6, &amp; 7 include those associated with the organization's Medicare outpatient lab, ambulance and therapy services. Total revenues from these activities were $863,858 and total costs were $1,355,377 for a net shortfall of $491,519. When combined with the shortfall reported on Line 7, the net shortfall from all Medicare programs is $936,318.</ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit>
        <DebtCollectionPolicy>Clay County Medical Corporation does not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as charity care.</DebtCollectionPolicy>
        <NeedsAssessment>Clay County Medical Corporation utilizes varied but complimentary methods to assess the health care needs of the community it serves. Clay County Medical Corporation and Clay County are included in the North Mississippi Health Services Community Health Assessment which is performed every three years and provides information on health status, utilization of health services, healthy beliefs and satisfaction with health care services. The North Mississippi Health Services Community Health Assessment covers the 24 county service area including Clay County and provides information by county. In addition, the North Mississippi Health Services Community Relations Facilitator conducts routine visits with our internal and external stakeholders across the entire service area including Clay County. The information gathered through several qualitative survey questions is used to determine our community's needs for the entire service area as well as the local service area for each hospital such as Clay County Medical Corporation.</NeedsAssessment>
        <PatientEducationAssistance>Explanations of the Clay County Medical Corporation charity care policy are communicated in a variety of forms including signage at all admission and registration areas, on the web site, on bills and statements, and in admission packets. Financial counselors assist the patient and responsible parties with determining eligibility for government programs, primarily Medicaid, and charity care status. The patient can apply for charity care at any time from the date of service through the collection process and once qualified and approved all collection efforts are stopped.</PatientEducationAssistance>
        <CommunityInformation>Clay County Medical Corporation serves more than 20,000 people in Clay County, MS and the surrounding area.

        <CommunityBuildingActivities>Not Applicable</CommunityBuildingActivities>
        <OtherInformation>How the organization's hospitals further its exempt purpose by promoting the health of the community: Clay County Medical Corporation has a commitment to a wide variety of community health outreach activities, which are coordinated by the community health coordinator and are staffed by Clay County Medical Corporation employees who volunteer their time to help with these events and activities. The community health coordinator assists in educating the community on health-related issues by organizing and presenting various health fairs and seminars. These events are held at local businesses, schools and community organizations and address a variety of health-related topics. In addition, the hospital sponsors cholesterol, blood pressure, vision, memory, and heart-risk screening events, through which tests are made available to the public for a nominal fee or at no charge with the majority of the costs incurred absorbed by the hospital.</OtherInformation>
        <AffiliatedHealthCareSystem>As noted above, Clay County Medical Corporation (CCMC) is part of North Mississippi Health Services (NMHS). NMHS operates North Mississippi Medical Center, four other community hospitals in addition to CCMC, as well as, North Mississippi Medical Clinics, which operates more than 30 medical clinics. Some of these facilities operate at an ongoing financial loss and NMHS provides operating funds in the form of working capital loans that have no set repayment date. These working capital loans have historically been converted to capital transfers in many cases, and therefore, the loans are forgiven such that the facility never makes repayment. NMHS does this in order to provide access to a variety of services across the service area and is an intentional part of its business model. The Community Health department that is part of NMMC coordinates a variety of community health activities across the service area as well. States Community Benefit Report Filed: Clay County Medical Corporation does not file a community benefit report with the state of Mississippi as there is no requirement to do so. The community benefit report is available online at nmhs.net.</AffiliatedHealthCareSystem>

        <Explanation>The Form 990 goes through a review process in the Accounting Department. The accountant for each facility reviews the returns for reasonableness and accuracy. All totals are tied to the audit reports, and all amounts are cross-referenced to schedules or other parts of the actual return. Once the accountant reviews, the Accounting Supervisor and the Director of Accounting reviews. The Supervisor does a detailed review by checking the return for the same items that the accountant checked for. Then the Director does a more high level review, reading the return for reasonableness and comparing prior year amounts to current year amounts. Finally, the VP of Finance reviews the return for reasonableness. The returns are then sent to the Executive VP/Treasurer to be reviewed. The Treasurer signs the return and it is then sent to the IRS.</Explanation>
