Those standards preserve a recognition threshold and measurement standard for the recognition and measurement of income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Only tax positions that meet the more-likely than-not recognition threshold at the effective date may be recognized. Methodist Hospital of Southern California has considered the potential impact of its tax positions, taken or not taken, and determined there was no potential liability under ASC 740.

X X X METHODIST HOSPITAL OF SOUTHERN CA PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN F OUR TOTAL EXPENSES FROM FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A) WERE $266,224,695. THE BAD DEBT INCLUDED IN THIS AMOUNT WAS $13,355,054. THIS LEFT US WITH A TOTAL EXPENSE OF $252,869,641 FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING LINE 7, COLUMN (F). PART I, LINE 7 COST OF CHARITY CARE IS BASED ON RATIO OF TOTAL ORGANIZATION COST TO CHARGES, DERIVED FROM WORKSHEET 2. OTHER BENEFITS - BASED ON ACTUAL COSTS ARE REPORTED BY VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS OF THE ORGANIZATION AND COLLECTED/VALIDATED BY THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH DEPARTMENT. PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: MH HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN A NUMBER OF COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES THROUGHOUT 2010. ONE OF THE UNIQUE ASPECTS OF MH'S SERVICE AREA IS THE COMMUNITY'S ETHNIC AND LINGUISTIC DIVERSITY, WHICH NEED TO BE SPECIALLY ADDRESSED TO PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. THE MAJORITY OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE AREA ARE HISPANIC, AND AFTER ENGLISH, SPANISH IS MOST OFTEN SPOKEN IN THE COMMUNITY. ASIAN AND PACIFIC ISLAND (API) COMMUNITY MEMBERS ARE THE NEXT LARGEST GROUP. OF THE API INDIVIDUALS IN MH'S SERVICE AREA, CHINESE INDIVIDUALS COMPRISE 56% OF THE POPULATION. GIVEN THE ETHNIC AND LINGUISTIC PROFILE OF OUR COMMUNITY, COMMUNITY BUILDING AND OUTREACH SERVICES MUST BE DELIVERED IN A CULTURALLY APPROPRIATE MANNER. TO THIS END, A PRIMARY OBJECTIVE OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS WILL BE TO DELIVER TAILORED SPANISH AND CHINESE PROGRAMMING THAT ADDRESSES IDENTIFIED HEALTH NEEDS. ONE SUCH EFFORT WILL BE TO STRENGTHEN SPANISH AND CHINESE CLASSES AND OUTREACH THROUGH THE MATERNAL CHILD HEALTH PROGRAM. ADDITIONALLY, INCREASING CULTURALLY SOUND EDUCATION AND NEEDED REFERRALS IN AN EFFORT TO ADDRESS LOW BIRTH WEIGHT WILL BE FUNDAMENTAL. MH ALSO PROVIDES COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES THAT RELATE TO SPECIFIC HEALTH ISSUES IN THE COMMUNITY, INCLUDING HEART DISEASE, STROKE, DIABETES, AND OVERWEIGHT. GIVEN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THESE HEALTH ISSUES, MORE SCREENINGS, EDUCATION, AND REFERRALS WILL BE PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY. SPECIFICALLY, BLOOD PRESSURE, CHOLESTEROL, AND GLUCOSE SCREENINGS WILL BE DELIVERED TO INDIVIDUALS WITH LESS ACCESS TO SERVICES. FITNESS AND NUTRITION EDUCATION WILL BE INTEGRATED INTO PROGRAMMING WHENEVER POSSIBLE. WORKING CLOSELY WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS, MH WILL BE BETTER ABLE TO INFORM VULNERABLE POPULATIONS (UNDER/UNINSURED, LIMITED TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS, ETC.) OF AVAILABLE SCREENING AND EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES. BECAUSE EARLY DETECTION AND INTERVENTION THROUGH SUCH SCREENINGS RESULT IN BETTER HEALTH OUTCOMES, TARGETED SERVICES ARE VITAL TO ADDRESSING THESE HEALTH ISSUES. CANCER EDUCATION AND SCREENINGS ARE ALSO A FUNDAMENTAL PART OF PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. BECAUSE CANCER IS THE SECOND LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH IN MH'S SERVICE AREA, THE NEED TO INCREASE AWARENESS CANNOT BE OVERLOOKED. FINDINGS FROM MH'S 2010 NEEDS ASSESSMENT NOTED THAT IN CALIFORNIA, PROSTATE CANCER IS THE MOST COMMON FORM OF CANCER AMONG MEN OF NEARLY ALL RACES AND ETHNICITIES. FOR WOMEN, BREAST CANCER IS ACTUALLY THE MOST COMMON FORM OF CANCER IN CALIFORNIA. UTILIZING INTERNAL RESOURCES ALONGSIDE EXTERNAL PARTNERSHIPS, PROSTATE AND BREAST CANCER SCREENINGS WILL BE A PRIMARY FOCUS. THE CONTINUATION OF PROSTATE SCREENINGS IS ESSENTIAL, AND THE ADDITION OF LOW AND NO-COST BREAST CANCER SCREENINGS FOR WOMEN WILL BE INCLUDED. IN ADDITION, MH PARTICIPATED IN THE FOLLOWING EVENTS, MEETINGS AND GROUPS THAT PROMOTED THE OVERALL HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY DURING 2010: MONTHLY LOS ANGELES COUNTY COMMISION MONTHLY ALZHEIMERS TASK FORCE MONTHLY MONROVIA SENIOR PROVIDER GROUP END OF LIFE COALITION BREAST HEALTH PROMOTION TASK FORCE BUDDHA'S LIGHT INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION - ARCADIA SPA 3 HEALTH PLANNING GROUP PASSED OUT FOOD AND GIFTS AT LA ARBORETUM BREAST CANCER AWARENESS CONFERENCE AT LA ARBORETUM ARCADIA FIRE DPT.'S PANCAKE BREAKFAST EL MONTE CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT'S HEALTHY EATING & PHYSICAL ACTIVITY "JOG-A-THON" PART III, LINE 4 SECTION A - BAD DEBT EXPENSE THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT INCLUDE SUCH A FOOTNOTE. THE AMOUNT OF THE ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT AT COST IS DETERMINED BY APPLYING THE UNINSURED DISCOUNT TO PATIENT CHARGES THAT ARE DEEMED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE. THIS AMOUNT REPRESENTS THE COST OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO ARE UNABLE OR REFUSE TO PAY THEIR BILLS AND DO NOT QUALIFY FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE, GOVERNMENT SPONSORED PROGRAMS OR OTHER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, AND ARE OTHERWISE UNINSURED. ANY PORTION OF A PATIENT BILL REMAINING AFTER APPLYING FINANCIAL, UNINSURED OR OTHER DISCOUNTS OR PAYMENTS RECEIVED ON THE ACCOUNT THAT ARE ULTIMATELY DETERMINED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE ARE WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT. MH PROVIDES FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE TO UNINSURED OR UNDER-INSURED INDIVIDUALS AT OR BELOW 350% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MH ALSO PROVIDES PATIENTS OPTIONS FOR PROMPT PAY DISCOUNTS, DISCOUNTS FOR THE MEDICALLY INDIGENT, AND INTEREST-FREE EXTENDED PAYMENT PLANS FOR PATIENTS WHO HAVE DEMONSTRATED GOOD FAITH AND ARE COOPERATING IN RESOLVING THEIR HOSPITAL BILLS. PATIENTS RECEIVE AN AUTOMATIC UNINSURED DISCOUNT OF 50% FOR EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS AND 37% FOR ALL OTHER VISIT TYPES. THE EXPECTED PATIENT PAYMENT AMOUNT ON THE PATIENT'S BILL REFLECTS THIS DISCOUNT. MH MAKES EVERY EFFORT IN DETERMINING IF A PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR CHARITY CARE UPON ADMISSION. MH'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY IS COMMUNICATED TO PATIENTS UPON ADMISSION AND IS AVAILABLE IN THE LANGUAGES PRIMARILY SPOKEN IN THE COMMUNITY. IT IS ALSO POSTED IN VARIOUS COMMON AREAS OF THE HOSPITAL AND IS PROVIDED UPON BILLING IF ELIGIBILITY IS NOT PREVIOUSLY DETERMINED. ELIGIBILITY IS REEVALUATED AS NEEDED AND AMOUNTS ARE CLASSIFIED AS CHARITY AS SOON AS ELIGIBILITY IS KNOWN. MH ALSO UTILIZES A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE (FA) SCORING SYSTEM TO ASSIST IN DETERMINING IF A PATIENT MAY QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE NOT APPLIED FOR IT. FA IS A METHODOLOGY THAT APPLIES CONSISTENT SCREENING AND APPLICATION STANDARDS TO ALL PATIENTS UTILIZING HISTORICAL DATA TO DEVELOP A PREDICTIVE MODEL FOR HEALTHCARE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. IN ITS DEVELOPMENT, SPECIAL ATTENTION WAS PAID TO THOSE SOCIO-ECONOMIC FACTORS THAT MIGHT ADVERSELY AFFECT THOSE PATIENTS DESERVING THE MOST ATTENTION. OTHER CRITERIA ARE ALSO UTILIZED TO ENSURE THAT NO SERVICES THAT HAVE QUALIFIED AS CHARITY ARE REPORTED AS BAD DEBT. AS SUCH, MH DOES NOT BELIEVE THAT ANY AMOUNTS INCLUDED IN PART III, LINE 2, ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY. PART III, LINE 8 SECTION B - MEDICARE THE EXTENT TO WHICH ANY MEDICARE SHORTFALL SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT: MEDICARE SHORTFALLS ARE REPORTED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE THE COST OF PROVIDING HEALTHCARE TO THE PATIENTS EXCEEDS THE REIMBURSEMENT. IN SUMMARY, HEALTHCARE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED OR RENDERED AT A LOSS. THE METHODOLOGY FOR CALCULATING THE LOSS IS BASED ON RATIO OF COST TO CHARGE FOR CALCULATING EXPENSE AND COMPARED AGAINST THE ACTUAL MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT. COSTING METHODOLOGY USED: MEDICARE COST IS BASED ON THE MEDICARE COST REPORT WHICH COMBINES ROUTINE AND ANCILLARY COSTS. THE CALCULATION OF COST FOR ANCILLARY SERVICES IS BASED ON RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES AND ROUTINE SERVICES ARE BASED ON DIRECT ROUTINE COSTS, ALLOCATED BASED ON THE MEDICARE PATIENT DAYS AS A PERCENT OF THE TOTAL PATIENT DAYS. PART III, SECTION C - CHARITY CARE PROVISIONS IF THE PATIENT DOES NOT PAY THE AMOUNT DEEMED TO BE HIS/HER RESPONSIBILITY, THE UNCOLLECTIBLE REMAINDER WOULD BECOME BAD DEBT. PATIENT LIABILITY WILL BE BASED ON THE LESSER OF BILLED CHARGES OR THE CASH DISCOUNT RATE (BASED ON MEDICARE RATES, 10% OF THE PATIENT ANNUAL INCOME, OR THE AMOUNT OUTLINED IN THE ATTACHED FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES). PART III, LINE 9B IT IS THE POLICY OF METHODIST HOSPITAL TO REVIEW AND EVALUATE APPROPRIATE ACCOUNTS FOR BAD DEBT PLACEMENT TO COLLECTION AGENCIES. UNINSURED PATIENTS WILL BE ENCOURAGED TO APPLY FOR UNCOMPENSATED CARE. ACCOUNTS WILL NOT BE APPROVED FOR LEGAL ACTION (BEYOND REPORTING TO CREDIT AGENCIES) UNTIL THE AGENCY SCREENS THE PATIENT FOR UNCOMPENSATED CARE. ONLY THOSE PATIENTS WHOSE INCOME EXCEEDS 200% OF FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES WILL BE APPROVED FOR LEGAL ACTION. METHODIST HOSPITAL WILL NOT GARNISH WAGES. IT WILL, HOWEVER, PERMIT LIENS ON HOMES OR OTHER REAL ESTATE FOR THE PURPOSE OF SECURING REPAYMENT AT SALE OR REFINANCING. PART VI, LINE 2 NEEDS ASSESSMENT: IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT OUTREACH EFFORTS WERE TRULY REFLECTIVE OF CONTINUALLY CHANGING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS, METHODIST HOSPITAL (MH) WORKED TO DEVELOP A FORMALIZED AVENUE THROUGH WHICH TO CAPTURE THE COMMUNITY'S VOICE. AT THE BEGINNING OF 2007, MH ESTABLISHED A COMMUNITY OUTREACH ADVISORY COMMITTEE. THIS REPRESENTATIVE BODY IS COMPRISED OF INDIVIDUALS REFLECTING THE COMMUNITY'S SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC LANDSCAPE. THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE INFORMED THE PLANNING PROCESS AT EVERY STAGE. DNA AND COMPANY, INC., ON BEHALF OF METHODIST HOSPITAL, COMPLETED THE 2010 COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT. A MIXED METHODOLOGY APPROACH WAS EMPLOYED IN ORDER TO PROVIDE A COMPREHENSIVE OVERVIEW OF THE LOCAL SERVICE AREA. THE HOSPITAL'S SERVICE AREA IS COMPRISED OF THIRTEEN ZIP CODES THAT ARE SPREAD THROUGHOUT TEN DIFFERENT CITIES. DATA WAS COMPILED FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: CLARITAS, CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES, OFFICE OF STATEWIDE HEALTH PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT, UCLA CENTER FOR HEALTH POLICY RESEARCH, CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, CENTER FOR SOCIAL SCIENCES RESEARCH AT UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA BERKELY, AND THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE. ADDITIONALLY, QUALITATIVE DATA WAS GATHERED THROUGH 25 KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS. THOSE INTERVIEWED WERE SELECTED BY THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE BASED ON THE INFORMANT'S EXPERIENCE AND UNDERSTANDING OF VARIOUS COMMUNITY NEEDS. REPRESENTED SERVICE PROVIDERS INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING: POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS, LOCAL FAITH COMMUNITIES AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS, COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS, AND LOCAL BUSINESSES. FOLLOWING THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROCESS, FINDINGS WERE RETURNED TO THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH ADVISORY COMMITTEE IN ORDER TO DETERMINE NEXT STEPS. INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL PARTNERS WERE ALSO CONSULTED TO HELP DEVELOP A THREE-YEAR PLAN THAT ALL COULD ENDORSE. BUY-IN WAS SOUGHT FROM THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH ADVISORY COMMITTEE, COMMUNITY PARTNERS, NUMEROUS MH DEPARTMENTS, MH'S MANAGEMENT TEAM, AND MH'S EXECUTIVE TEAM. THE HOSPITAL'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED THE FINAL PLAN. THROUGH THIS VERY INFORMATIVE PROCESS, THE PLAN CONTINUED TO DEVELOP AND EVOLVE INTO WHAT HAS BEEN DETAILED BELOW. THE TRUE VALUE IS IN THE HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY'S ABILITY TO TAKE GENUINE OWNERSHIP OF THIS PLAN AND THE OUTCOME OF EVERYONE'S COLLECTIVE EFFORTS. PART VI, LINE 3 PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE: METHODIST HOSPITAL OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (MH) INFORMS MH MEDICAL STAFF AND EMPLOYEES OF AVAILABLE LOW AND NO-COST RESOURCES. THIS INFORMATION IS DISTRIBUTED THROUGH COMMUNITY OUTREACH RESOURCE TABLES AT EMPLOYEE FAIRS, INTERNAL NEWS BULLETINS, AND MANAGEMENT MEETINGS. MH ALSO PROVIDES MEDICARE COUNSELING TO MH MEDICAL STAFF AND EMPLOYEES. MH DISTRIBUTES ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND RELEVANT CONTACT INFORMATION TO PATIENTS UPON THEIR ADMITTIANCE TO THE HOSPITAL. EXTERNALLY, MH COMPILES AND MAINTAINS INFORMATION ON AVAILABLE LOW AND NO-COST LOCAL SERVICES, INCLUDING DIRECT CONTACT PERSONS FOR EACH PROGRAM. IT CREATES A COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY OUTREACH CALENDAR FOR THE MH WEBSITE AND DISTRIBUTES INFORMATION THROUGH A COMMUNITY OUTREACH BROCHURE, THE 50+ BULLETIN, AND THE HEALTH MINISTRIES NEWSLETTER. IT DISSEMINATES INFORMATION THAT PARTNERS CAN PUBLICIZE THROUGH THEIR OWN INTERNAL MECHANISMS. IN ADDITION, IT ALLOCATES RESOURCES TO INCREASE COMMUNITY ACCESS TO HEALTH-RELATED SERVICES AND DELIVERS MEDICARE COUNSELING TO COMMUNITY GROUPS. PART VI, LINE 4 COMMUNITY INFORMATION: AS OF 2010, METHODIST HOSPITAL'S SERVICE AREA WAS COMPRISED OF APPROXIMATELY 475,848 PERSONS. THIS REPRESENTS A GROWTH OF FIVE PERCENT SINCE THE YEAR 2007, WITH A FORECASTED INCREASE OF ANOTHER FIVE PERCENT BY THE YEAR 2015. THE 2010 DEMOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION IS AS FOLLOWS: AGE GROUP 21 TO 64 YEARS - 59% UNDER 21 YEARS - 28% 65 YEARS AND OVER - 13% RACE/ETHNICITY HISPANIC - 37% ASIAN OR PACIFIC ISLANDER - 35% WHITE - 23% LANGUAGE SPOKEN AT HOME ENGLISH ONLY - 37% SPANISH - 31% ASIAN OR PACIFIC ISLAND LANGUAGE - 28% IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT THE POPULATION OF RESIDENTS 65 YEARS AND OLDER, AND THAT OF ASIAN OR PACIFIC ISLANDERS, IS GREATER THAN THAT SEEN IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY - WHEREIN THE HOSPITAL IS LOCATED - AS A WHOLE. PART VI, LINE 5 PROMOTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH: THE 2010 NEEDS ASSESSMENT REVEALED THE DESIRE TO HAVE MH FACILITATE ADDITIONAL NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES. BECAUSE MH ESTABLISHED THE WEST SAN GABRIEL VALLETY HEALTH COUNCIL TO FACILITATE NETWORKING AMONG LOCAL SERVICE PROVIDERS, DIVERSIFYING THIS GROUP THAT HAS BEEN VERY WELL-RECEIVED BY THE COMMUNITY IS AN IDEAL METHOD OF ADDRESSING THE ISSUE. DOING SO WILL HELP ESTABLISH LINKAGES THAT SUPPORT HEALTH SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY. SOLID CONNECTIONS BETWEEN PROVIDERS ARE KEY TO ADDRESSING THE IDENTIFIED ACCESS ISSUES THAT UNDER/UNINSURED COMMUNITY MEMBERS FACE. BECAUSE AVAILABLE SERVICES ARE SOMETIMES UNKNOWN TO THOSE IN NEED, AS WELL AS TO THE SERVICE PROVIDERS WHO CARE FOR THEM, FACILITATING NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES WILL BE A PRIMARY OBJECTIVE OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS. OTHER INFORMATION: 1. A MAJORITY OF THE HOSPITAL'S GOVERNING BODY IS COMPRISES OF PERSONS WHO RESIDE IN THE HOSPITAL'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA WHO ARE NEITHER EMPLOYEES NOR INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS OF THE HOSPITAL NOR FAMILY MEMBERS THEREOF. 2. THE HOSPITAL DOES EXTEND MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS IN ITS COMMUNITY FOR SOME OR ALL OF ITS DEPARTMENTS. 3. THE HOSPITAL REINVESTS THE SURPLUS IN CAPITAL INVESTMENT TO HELP IMPROVE PATIENT CARE AND TO FOLLOW THE MISSION OF MHSC. THE HOSPITAL ALSO USES THE SURPLUS TO INVEST IN ITS EMPLOYEES INCLUDING EDUCATION.

Supplemental Non-qualified Retirement Plan Part I, Line 4B Methodist Hospital (MH) maintains a section 457F deferred compensation plan for management and highly compensated employees.

NAME OF GIC PROVIDER AND GIC TERMS PART IV, LINE 4 NAME OF GIC PROVIDER TERM BANK OF NY/RABO 29 YRS BANK OF NY/RABO 12 YRS STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A Methodist hospital, founded in 1903, is a 460-bed, not-for-profit hospital serving the central san gabriel valley. Services provided include comprehensive acute care such as medical, surgical, perinatal, pediatrics, oncology, intensive care (neonatal and adult), and complete cardiovascular services, including open-heart surgery. Methodist hospital (MH) is accredited by the joint commission on accreditation of healthcare. METHODIST HOSPITAL DEDICATES AN ENTIRE DEPARTMENT TO ADDRESSING ITS OUTREACH OBJECTIVES OF SERVING THE WHOLE COMMUNITY, NOT ONLY THOSE WHO COME TO ITS DOORS. BUILDING ON A LONG TRADITION OF SERVICE TO LOCAL RESIDENTS, THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH DEPARTMENT UTILIZES HOSPITAL STRENGTHS, ALONGSIDE THOSE OF OTHER WELL-ESTABLISHED COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THIS STRATEGY ALLOWS MH TO BETTER UNDERSTAND AND REACH THE MOST VULNERABLE SECTORS OF THE COMMUNITY WHILE MEETING PRESSING HEALTH CARE NEEDS. THE GOAL IS TO IMPROVE THE COMMUNITY'S HEALTH STATUS BY EMPOWERING INDIVIDUALS TO MAKE HEALTHY LIFE CHOICES. OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE HIGH-QUALITY HEALING SERVICES WHILE CARING FOR THE PATIENT AS A WHOLE PERSON WITH EMOTIONAL AND SPIRITUAL DIMENSIONS AS WELL AS PHYSICAL NEEDS. WORKING TOGETHER, WE WILL PROVIDE AN EXCEPTIONAL PATIENT EXPERIENCE INSPIRED BY PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS AND GENUINE COMPASSION. OUR VALUES ARE INTEGRITY, RESPECT, AND COMPASSION. THESE VALUES SHALL CHARACTERIZE ALL OUR ACTIONS AND INTERACTIONS EMBRACING OUR MULTICULTURAL ENVIRONMENT. CAMPUS EXPANSION PROJECT THROUGHOUT ITS MORE THAN 100 YEAR HISTORY, METHODIST HOSPITAL HAS CONTINUED TO GROW AND EVOLVE WITH CONTINUALLY CHANGING COMMUNITY NEEDS. A CAMPUS EXPANSION PROJECT IS WELL UNDERWAY; A REFLECTION OF THE ONGOING COMMITMENT TO CHANGE WITH THE TIMES IN ORDER TO SERVE PATIENTS WELL INTO THE 21ST CENTURY. PLANS FOR THE PROJECT INCLUDE A NEARLY 155,000-SQUARE-FOOT, FIVE-STORY PATIENT TOWER THAT WILL HOUSE AN EXPANDED, STATE-OF-THE-ART EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, THREE FLOORS OF PATIENT ROOMS, A NEW DIETARY FACILITY AND DINNING ROOM, AND A NEW CENTRAL PHARMACY. THE CAMPUS PLAN TAKES INTO CONSIDERATION THE MULTITUDE OF ISSUES FACING OUR COMMUNITY'S HEALTH CARE NEEDS BY PROVIDING FOR ADDED MEDICAL, SURGICAL AND EMERGENCY SERVICES. OVER THE YEARS, TWO ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS IN THE SAN GABRIEL VALLEY HAVE CLOSED. THE RESULT IS THE ELIMINATION OF VITAL EMERGENCY AND PATIENT CARE SERVICES, WHICH PUTS PRESSURE ON NOT-FOR-PROFIT HOSPITALS DEDICATED TO STAYING OPEN AND SERVING THE COMMUNITY. AT THE SAME TIME, OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY IS AGING, ESPECIALLY AS THE BABY BOOMER GENERATION MOVES TOWARD RETIREMENT. THE GROWING NUMBER OF SENIORS IN THE COMMUNITY WILL DICTATE THE NEED FOR ADDED CAPACITY IN SPECIFIC PATIENT SERVICES, AS WELL AS MEDICALLY ADVANCED CARE. COMMUNITY BENEFIT OBJECTIVES METHODIST HOSPITAL'S 2009-2011 COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN PRIORITIZES SIX KEY OBJECTIVES BASED ON NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE LATEST COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT. PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE IN EACH OF THESE AREAS, WHEREIN SERVICES ARE BEING PROVIDED AT NO COST TO THE COMMUNITY. THE FIRST OBJECTIVE LOOKS TO INCREASE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING TO THE COMMUNITY. TO THIS END, A NUMBER OF EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH PROGRAMS, SCREENINGS, AND SERVICES HAVE BEEN MADE MORE ACCESSIBLE TO THE PREDOMINANTLY SPANISH AND CHINESE-SPEAKING COMMUNITIES. THE SECOND OBJECTIVE IS TO INCREASE FOCUS ON ADDRESSING CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH. TO THIS END, A COMMUNITY-WIDE HEART FAIR WAS SPONSORED, WHILE MONTHLY BLOOD PRESSURE SCREENIINGS WERE PROVIDED AT THREE DIFFERENT COMMUNITY CENTERS AND FAITH COMMUNITY SITES. ALSO, THE HOSPITAL DEDICATED TIME, RAISED FUNDS AND AWARENESS, AND SENT A TEAM OF WALKERS TO THE LOCAL AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION WALK. THE THIRD OBJECTIVE IS TO INCREASE CANCER EDUCATION AND SCREENING OPPORTUNITIES. TO THIS END, A COMMUNITY-WIDE, MULTI-LINGUAL PROSTATE SCREENING WAS HOSTED. THE HOSPITAL ALSO BECAME VERY ACTIVE IN THE LOCAL BREAST HEALTH TASK FORCE, PARTNERING WITH AGENCIES TO PROVIDE EDUCATIONAL AND SCREENING OPPORTUNITIES, WHILE SEEKING GRANT FUNDING TOWARDS SUSTAINABILITY. FURTHERMORE, THE HOSPITAL DEDICATED TIME, RAISED FUNDS AND AWARENESS, AND PROVIDED STAFFING FOR TWO DIFFERENT AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY RELAYS FOR LIFE. FINALLY, THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS COMMISSION ON CANCER REVIEWS THE HOSPITAL'S ONCOLOGY PROGRAM EVERY THREE YEARS AS A REQUIREMENT OF ACCREDITATION. DURING THEIR NOVEMBER 2010 VISIT, THE SURVEYORS GAVE HIGH PRAISE TO THE CANCER OUTREACH EFFORTS IN PLACE, AND THE ACCREDITATION THAT FOLLOWED IDENTIFIED CANCER OUTREACH AS ONE OF THE AREAS THAT EARNED A FORMAL COMMENDATION. THE FOURTH OBJECTIVE IS TO INCREASE PROGRAMMING ON DIABETES AS WELL AS WEIGHT MANAGEMENT. TO THIS END, A NUMBER OF COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND SCREENING PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO SCHOOL AND FAITH COMMUNITY GROUPS, IN ADDITION TO A MYRIAD OF COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS AND PRIVATE BUSINESSES. ALSO, GRANT FUNDING WAS SOUGHT AND OBTAINED FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON IN 2010 TOWARDS A MULTICULTURAL DIABETES EDUCATION PROGRAM, WHICH CONSISTS OF NINE LARGE-SCALED, MULTILINGUAL EDUCATION AND SCREENING SUMMITS BEING OFFERED AT DIFFERENT COMMUNITY SITES IN 2011. THE FIFTH OBJECTIVE IS TO FACILITATE ACCESS TO HEALTH-RELATED SERVICES. TO THIS END, THERE HAS BEEN AN INCREASE IN PRESENTATIONS TO COMMUNITY GROUPS ON INSURANCE AND HEALTHCARE ACCESS. ADDITIONALLY, A LOW/NO-COST LOCAL SERVICE GUIDE WITH DIRECT CONTACT PERSONS FOR EACH PROGRAM IS REGULARLY UPDATED AND DISTRIBUTED, AS IS A SENIOR RESOURCE GUIDE. THE SIXTH OBJECTIVE IS TO FACILITATE COMMUNITY COLLABORATION. TO THIS END, HOSPITAL-SPONSORED COMMUNITY NETWORKING MEETINGS HAVE INCREASED FROM QUARTERLY TO BI-MONTHLY, EFFECTIVELY DOUBLING AGENCY MEMBERSHIP, PARTICIPATION, AND DIVERSITY. FURTHERMORE, PARTICIPATION IN LOCAL COLLABORATIVE MEETINGS HAS INCREASED AS A MEANS OF SUPPORTING NETWORKING EFFORTS BY COMMUNITY MEMBERS. THE EMPLOYEES BEHIND THE NUMBERS DESPITE THE FACT THAT EMPLOYEES WORK ALL DAY TO ENSURE THEIR PART IN PROVIDING EXCEPTIONAL PATIENT CARE ON THE JOB, MANY CARRY THIS SAME SPIRIT TO VARIOUS SECTORS OF THEIR PERSONAL LIVES. HOSPITAL EMPLOYEES AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS ALIKE CONTINUALLY INQUIRE ABOUT DONATING THEIR TIME, ENERGIES, AND RESOURCES TO SERVE THOSE IN NEED. SOME OF THE THINGS OUR EMPLOYEES DID TO ENHANCE THEIR COMMUNITY IN 2010 ARE AS FOLLOWS: SUPPORT COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH CLINIC PREPARE MEALS FOR THOSE WITH LIMITATIONS DRIVE THOSE WITH TRANSPORTATION CHALLENGES TO MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS OPEN HOME UP TO MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY SUPPORT GROUP CHAIR FUNDRAISERS FOR MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY RESEARCH COLLECT MEDICAL BOOKS TO SEND TO IRAQ SORT AND DISTRIBUTE ITEMS AT FOOD BANKS ADMINISTER FLU VACCINES TO CHILDREN SERVE MEALS AT SOUP KITCHENS ORGANIZE RUMMAGE SALES TO RAISE FUNDS FOR RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE TEACH CPR TO SCHOOLS AND BOY SCOUT TROOPS SERVE AS GIRL SCOUT LEADER TEACH FOOD BANK CLIENTS (ON SITE AND AT THEIR HOMES) ABOUT DIABETES MANAGEMENT TEACH FAMILY LIFE TO 5TH AND 6TH GRADE STUDENTS EDUCATE AND SUPPORT WOMEN IN CRISIS PREGNANCIES, WHILE PROVIDING THEM WITH GENTLY-USED CLOTHING, HOUSING SUPPORT, PHYSICIAN IDENTIFICATION, COUNSELING, AND CLASSES TO COMPLETE GED OR OBTAIN WORK SKILLS BUILD HOUSES IN TIJUANA, MEXICO FOR HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS RAISE FUNDS TO PROVIDE HEALING TO WOMEN WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED ABORTION MAKE AND DELIVER SPECIAL OCCASION GIFTS (HOLIDAYS, MOTHER'S AND FATHER'S DAY, ETC.)

UNFORTUNATELY, IT CANNOT CAPTURE THE INTANGIBLE AND IMMEASURABLE BENEFITS OF SIMPLY DOING WHAT IT IS THAT METHODIST HOSPITAL NATURALLY DOES BEST. THIS REPORT DOES NOT CAPTURE THE TRUE IMPACT OF 1200 INFLUENZA VACCINES DELEVERED THROUGH COMMUNITY CLINICS. IT CERTAINLY CANNOT TELL OF SUPPORT GROUP PARTICIPANTS AND FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ARE SO IMPACTED BY SERVICES, THAT THEY JUST HAVE TO STOP BY MONTHS LATER TO SAY "THANK YOU." IT WILL NOT SUMMARIZE THE IMPACT OF MANY INDIVIDUAL LIVES THAT WERE MEANINGFULLY TOUCHED BY A RIDE HOME OR A SIMPLE EXPRESSION OF TRUST. THIS REPORT IS MERELY AN ATTEMPT TO REFLECT SOME OF THE ENERGY, WARMTH, AND SPIRIT THAT METHODIST HOSPITAL HAS BEEN PROUD TO DEDICATE TOWARDS COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR OVER A CENTURY.
