| Part V, Section B | Facility Reporting Group A |
| Facility Reporting Group A consists of: | - Facility 1: Johnson City Medical Center, - Facility 2: Indian Path Community Hospital, - Facility 3: Franklin Woods Community Hospital, - Facility 4: Sycamore Shoals Hospital, - Facility 5: Russell County Hospital, - Facility 6: Johnson County Community Hospital, - Facility 7: Unicoi County Hospital, - Facility 8: Lee County Community Hospital |
| Facility Reporting Group - A Part V, Section B, line 3j: | The Community Health Needs Assessment report also included information related to other findings from the data collection process. Special topics such as Adverse Childhood Experiences, Access, Child Health, and others were also detailed. The report also included extensive data appendices further describing the community and health and social related outcomes. |
| Facility Reporting Group - A Part V, Section B, line 5: | To assess the health of those living in our service area, Ballad Health utilized the Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP 2.0) framework. This comprehensive assessment was conducted from summer 2023 through spring 2024 and included all Ballad Health hospitals. We gathered primary data through surveys with community partners and members, as well as stakeholder meetings. There was broad representation from multi-sector community partners such as, but not exclusively, health departments, academic institutions, community-based organizations, faith-based organizations, justice systems, behavioral health organizations, clinical providers, governmental agencies, emergency personnel, and social services. There was also special focus on including vulnerable and marginalized populations input. Additionally, we compiled secondary data from national, state, regional and county sources. This thorough approach helps us understand and address the unique health needs of our communities. Throughout the community health needs assessment process, we focused on identifying health priorities and disparities within each community. Community members ranked the top three health issues in their area, providing valuable local insights. Combining these perspectives with county, state and national data gives us a comprehensive view of the region's health. This foundation helps us develop effective solutions to improve health outcomes for all. |
| Facility Reporting Group - A Part V, Section B, line 6a: | The comprehensive assessment was conducted from summer 2023 through spring 2024 and included all Ballad Health hospitals (Bristol Regional Medical Center, Dickenson Community Hospital, Franklin Woods Community Hospital, Greeneville Community Hospital, Hancock County Hospital, Hawkins County Memorial Hospital, Holston Valley Medical Center, Indian Path Community Hospital, Johnson City Medical Center, Johnson County Community Hospital, Johnston Memorial Hospital, Lee County Community Hospital, Lonesome Pine Hospital, Niswonger Children's Hospital, Norton Community Hospital, Russell County Hospital, Smyth County Community Hospital, Sycamore Shoals Hospital, Unicoi County Hospital, and Woodridge Hospital). |
| Facility Reporting Group - A Part V, Section B, line 11: | Phase 3 of the MAPP 2.0 framework focuses on the continuous improvement of the community. As part of this phase, presentations on Ballad Health's Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) process were provided to each of the hospital boards to promote engagement and secure buy-in ahead of the development of Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIPs). These presentations aimed to ensure that hospital leadership fully understood the CHNA process and were committed to the subsequent steps. The CHIPs were developed by each facility based on the CHNA findings and involve collaboration between hospital leadership and community partners in their design and implementation. Each CHIP outlines specific, actionable strategies tailored to address the priority health issues identified in the CHNA. These strategies include measurable objectives, timelines, and assigned responsibilities to ensure accountability and progress tracking.Recognizing the complexity of the identified health issues, Ballad Health emphasizes the importance of collaboration, ensuring that all partners have a seat at the table. This inclusive approach is essential for addressing the multifaceted health challenges that no single entity can manage alone. By fostering strong partnerships and collective action, Ballad Health aims to create effective and sustainable health improvement strategies for the community. Furthermore, the CHIPs will include regular progress reviews and updates to adapt to emerging needs and challenges. This dynamic process ensures that the plans remain relevant and effective over time, continually improving health outcomes in the community. Through these comprehensive and collaborative efforts, Ballad Health is committed to making meaningful and lasting improvements in community health. |
| Facility Reporting Group - A Part V, Section B, line 13h: | Ballad Health's financial assistance policy allows for some exceptions to strictly adhering to federal poverty guidelines when awarding financial assistance. Unique circumstances may be weighed and assessed for financial assistance consideration on a case-by-case basis. Also, there are some services where financial assistance may be provided outside of federal poverty guidelines. These are noted in Ballad Health's financial assistance policy. |

| Part I, Line 3c: | Financial assistance approval can apply to an assortment of patients such as those who have exhausted their Medicaid/TennCare benefits, those who qualified for Medicaid/TennCare after the date of service, deceased patients with no estate or assets, uninsured patients, and underinsured patients. While Ballad Health's qualifications for financial assistance is based on federal poverty guidelines, asset values may also be used to determine financial assistance eligibility. Unique circumstances may be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Charity approval covers current or active patient balances when they are approved and there is no limitation or cap on the amount of charity that a patient may receive. Ballad Health hospitals do not stop approving financial assistance for patient accounts if a hospital's charity write-offs exceed the hospital's charity budget.All Ballad Health hospitals provide an uninsured discount; the current uninsured discount is 85% for all acute facilities and 77% for all critical access facilities. In addition to the uninsured discount, many patients will further qualify for additional financial assistance. All patients seeking financial assistance must submit an application for financial assistance and submit documents in support of the information on the application, unless specifically excluded according to policy guidelines. Medicaid eligible patients will qualify for 100% financial assistance and not be required to complete the required documentation when: a) Medicaid eligibility requirements are met after the service is provided, b) non-covered charges occur on a Medicaid eligible encounter, or c) benefits have been exhausted. Deceased patients with no estate also qualify for 100% financial assistance.Financial assistance determinations may be retroactive for all outstanding balances. In addition, Ballad Health offers a number of programs with special discounts such as lactation consultation services, oncology treatment regimens, enrollment in various community programs and prescription drugs filled post-discharge. |
| Part I, Line 7: | The cost to charge ratio (worksheet 2 "ratio of patient care cost to charges") was used to calculate line 7a financial assistance at cost, which includes charity and uninsured discounts. MSHA's cost accounting system was used to report Tenncare and Medicaid on line 7b, with the exception of home health and a small physician clinic. A cost to charge ratio was used for their data because these are smaller divisions not available in MSHA's cost accounting software. Line 7e community health improvement includes costs that are taken directly from departmental operating reports or expenses specific to a community health event, with no additional overhead included in the cost. Line 7f health professions education is comprised of internships (primarily internal medicine residents, nursing, pharmacy, and therapy students) with schools and universities, allowing their health profession students to receive hands-on training in a hospital setting. MSHA's Medicare-approved programs include medical residents, pharmacy and pastoral care. For these programs, Medicare-approved costs and Medicare reimbursement comes from filed Medicare cost reports. Ballad Health maintains records for the non-Medicare programs. Only labor costs are included for MSHA team members that provide training (no overhead is applied) and only a percentage of team members' time is attributed to actual training. For line 7g subsidized health services, MSHA's cost accounting system is used because MSHA has established, standard costing reports for these services. There are exceptions where MSHA does not use the cost accounting system. A small clinic inside Johnson County Community Hospital (JCCH), a federally designated critical access hospital, is subsidized by JCCH and the clinic's departmental operating report is used to compute the clinic's community benefit. The second exception is a palliative care program. For this program, the department's operating report is used. Although there are other service lines within MSHA hospitals that incur losses, MSHA does not report services that hospitals are required by state licensure to provide, routine services or ancillary services. Line 7g also includes $50,380,028 of actual cost MSHA incurred that is attributable to physician clinics. Services are being subsidized at these clinics in order to maintain access and service in rural areas that would otherwise be unavailable to the community or below the community's need if not provided. MSHA is careful to ensure no double counting of costs. Line 7h research represents MSHA's expense allocation from Ballad Health for research. Line 7i cash and in-kind contributions includes cash disbursements and in-kind donations of medications to local nonprofit rescue squads and fire departments. In-kind donations of medications are based on actual cost for these items. |
| Part II, Community Building Activities: | MSHA leaders support and encourage all team members to volunteer time, money and skills to community service projects and charitable organizations. Senior leaders and board members set a positive example for MSHA team members, serving voluntarily on committees and boards of local service and nonprofit organizations. Some also serve as members and consultants on professional committees and task forces that affect regional development in healthcare and education. MSHA does not capture costs associated with team members that serve on other nonprofit boards or provide services to other nonprofits.MSHA, in collaboration with area health agencies and providers, offers assistance with coordination, advocacy, or contributes supplies to support groups for their program activities that serve to assist special populations within the area. Most of these organizations work to improve the lives of community members that have limited, or no, financial resources.During FY25, MSHA provided funds to the Lee County Board of Supervisors to support funding of a local basketball court, Jonesborough's Farm to Table Program, the Johnson City Chamber Foundation to support the National Civics Program for middle schools, and to the Boys and Girls Club of Elizabethton in support of their Great Futures Program, along with other contributions for community building projects. |
| Part III, Line 2: | Self-pay balances include accounts after payments and contractual adjustments (discounts) have been applied from all third-party payors such as Medicare, TennCare/Medicaid, commercial insurers, and others - generally leaving the patient responsible for any remaining deductible and/or co-payment. Other self-pay accounts are from patients with no insurance or other third-party coverage. Under Ballad Health's system-wide self-pay policy, any patient who has no insurance and is ineligible for any government assistance program received an 85% discount, with the exception of critical access hospitals, where it is 77%. Many self-pay patients will further qualify for financial assistance (sometimes referred to as charity care) if they provide the financial information needed to deem them eligible or upon determination of presumptive charity eligibility. After the normal collection process has indicated an account is uncollectible, MSHA writes the account off to bad debt. The overall self-pay accounts receivable balance is evaluated on an ongoing basis to evaluate the age of accounts receivable, historical write-offs and recoveries and any unusual instances (such as local, regional or national economic conditions) which affect the collectability of receivables. |
| Part III, Line 3: | Ballad Health estimates that approximately 5% of MSHA's bad debt would have qualified for financial assistance if patients had provided a financial assistance application and required documentation. Pursuant to the merger, MSHA has begun to score accounts using a presumptive eligibility tool. This tool utilizes various data points for a proprietary algorithm operated by an outside vendor to provide an individual's score which is then relied upon to assign presumptive charity eligibility. There are many instances of patients with large account balances and no health insurance coverage that MSHA believes would qualify for financial assistance. Although patients are encouraged to apply for assistance, many will not do so. MSHA would prefer for patients to submit completed financial assistance applications given that historical data clearly indicates that most uninsured patients and many underinsured patients will qualify for financial assistance under our program. Without a completed application, these are recorded as bad debt instead of charity care. |
| Part III, Line 4: | Ballad Health's audited financial statements include a footnote on page 15 that describes bad debt. MSHA is included in the June 30, 2025 audited financial statements of Ballad Health (attached). |
| Part III, Line 8: | Excluding Medicare losses reported in Part I subsidized health, the Part III Medicare allowable costs are reported using MSHA's filed Medicare cost report (C/R). The C/R uses a cost to charge ratio based on a step-down allocation methodology. |
| Part III, Line 9b: | Requests for financial assistance are evaluated using established guidelines, while allowing for unique financial circumstances - for example, medically indigent patients with catastrophic medical costs that would threaten the patient's household financial viability. When a patient requests financial assistance or when an application has been received, the patient's account is placed in a hold status to prevent further collection activities until financial assistance eligibility is determined. All Ballad Health hospitals comply with IRS 501(r) regulatory guidelines.Ballad Health's collection policy clearly states that all patients are treated equally - with dignity and respect. Ballad Health ensures that outside collection agencies adhere to Ballad Health billing and collection guidelines. The collection program includes communicating expected financial responsibility prior to service. MSHA hospitals provide assistance to help underinsured and uninsured patients determine sources of payment for medical bills and to help patients determine eligibility for programs such as TennCare or Medicaid.After insurance benefit verification, MSHA hospitals bill insurance carriers. If the insurance carrier denies payment of the service/procedure as non-covered or the patient has exceeded their maximum benefits, the service/procedure will qualify for the uninsured discount.Financial counselors are available to discuss financial assistance with patients and their families. MSHA hospitals provide a number of payment options:- a pre-service discount may be offered- a discount in excess of established discounting rates may be granted for catastrophic high dollar accounts- MSHA hospitals accept all non-contracted and out-of-network payors and will make attempts to work with these payors regarding appropriate reimbursement and billing to their members- as part of Ballad Health's commitments to the State of Tennessee and Commonwealth of Virginia to form Ballad Health, not-in-network discounts are applied per policies in place for MSHA hospitals- payment arrangements are available as long as the account is not with a collection agencyReasonable efforts are made to determine if a patient is eligible for financial assistance - see Schedule H, Part VI, line 3 for information on how patients are informed about the Ballad Health financial assistance policy. |
| Part VI, Line 2: | Ballad Health and its hospitals have pledged to improve the health of our service area counties by focusing on access, quality and population health measures. These metrics enable Ballad Health to collaborate with our communities and address the region's health disparities and access challenges. Through the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) process, we have gained valuable insights into the health disparities within our communities and prioritized the most pressing issues in each hospital's service area. This collaborative approach helps us educate and drive meaningful change, ensuring better health outcomes for all.The community health needs assessment identified chronic disease, behavioral and mental health, and obesity and overweight as the top three health priorities for the hospital service area. These issues emerged as the most pressing health concerns based on data from various sources, including local perspectives and community surveys. Addressing these critical areas allows us to focus efforts on improving overall health outcomes and quality of life in the region. |
| Part VI, Line 3: | Consistent with the Ballad Health financial assistance policy, MSHA communicates with and provides education to patients through various avenues regarding governmental assistance programs and hospital financial assistance. Various educational and application documents related to obtaining financial assistance are widely available at MSHA and all documents are available on the Ballad Health website. Printed financial assistance educational materials are part of each registration packet and posters are displayed in highly visible areas of the hospitals. Our financial assistance policy and documents are available in emergency departments and admitting areas. MSHA is also happy to mail all documents to patients and offers a plain language summary. All documents are available in English and Spanish. Financial assistance information is available during pre-registration, registration and/or during financial counseling. MSHA offers governmental program eligibility representatives to assist patients in securing eligibility for TennCare or Medicaid, federal disability and other governmental assistance programs. Additionally, if a patient or community resident expresses an interest in the ACA-healthcare exchange, MSHA representatives have the qualifications and experience to assist them through the entire process. Financial counselors offer financial assistance applications to patients who do not qualify for governmental assistance programs and are unable to pay for some or all of their healthcare.All patient billing statements have verbiage discussing financial assistance along with contact information. The last letter to the patient displays the plain language summary. In all oral correspondences with a patient, if it is identified the patient cannot meet payment requirements on their account, financial assistance is discussed as an option.Applicants are notified of financial assistance determination in writing. |
| Part VI, Line 4: | MSHA serves the healthcare needs of 29 Appalachian counties in Northeast Tennessee, Southwest Virginia, Southeast Kentucky, and Northwest North Carolina. All of the counties MSHA serves are federally designated as medically underserved areas. MSHA's largest hospital, Johnson City Medical Center, is a tertiary referral center and level one trauma center. Medically underserved areas are designated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Shortage areas are identified through analysis of physician to population ratios depending on whether an area is considered to have a high need. Criteria used to determine high need are poverty rates, the percent of the population over age 65, infant mortality rates and fertility rates. MSHA operates 2 critical access hospitals: Johnson County Community Hospital in Tennessee and Lee County Community Hospital in Virginia.Additionally, according to County Health Rankings, counties where MSHA hospitals are located consistently rank poorly for both health outcomes and health factors. |
| Part VI, Line 5: | MSHA is dedicated to operating efficiently so that waste is minimized. MSHA's leadership remains mindful of managing limited resources so that adequate facilities and equipment are available for the care of patients. Surplus funds are invested into improving treatment options for patients through new technologies, recruiting physicians and trained staff in shortage areas, and improving MSHA facilities. Various checks and balances are established to ensure that expenditures for operating expenses and capital costs are reasonable and necessary. MSHA has several hospitals with Medicare-approved health profession education programs. In addition, MSHA hospitals serve as training sites for many types of health professions: nursing, pharmacy, psychology, lab, respiratory therapy, EMT, public health, etc. Students from numerous colleges and universities receive training and experience in MSHA hospitals. MSHA resources are devoted to health conferences for local health professionals, provide for media coverage to educate residents on health issues, offer events to the public that combine fun activities with health education, and many other programs focused on improving the health of area residents. While MSHA operates hospitals in predominantly low-income, rural and isolated areas, MSHA continues to offer services that operate at a loss because residents would otherwise need to leave their hometown or county to receive needed care. Mountain States merged with Wellmont Health System in February 2018 to form Ballad Health healthcare system. Mountain States and Wellmont still exist as legal entities and continue to operate multiple hospitals. MSHA's governing body is comprised of persons who reside in the organization's primary service areas. Physicians that request privileges who are qualified and credentialed are extended privileges by MSHA. |
| Part VI, Line 6: | Mountain State's merger with Wellmont opened up many opportunities not previously available to two competing health systems. Collaboration started post-merger and Ballad Health continues to see progress towards improving efficiencies within our health system, activities consistent with Ballad Health's population health initiative, sharing best practice quality improvements, and other benefits related to operating as one rather than operating in a competitive environment. A clinical council was formed immediately following the merger. The council includes physicians nominated from the leadership of all Ballad hospitals. A Community Benefit and Population Health Committee of the board was established, and various other infrastructures have been established since the merger. Across MSHA's hospitals, there were many projects, programs, and collaborative efforts that took place during the year. MSHA provides care to people in 29 counties in Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky and North Carolina. Each hospital is fully accredited by The Joint Commission, with the exception of Johnson County Community Hospital and Lee County Community Hospital. JCCH and LCCH receive certification through the states of Tennessee and Virginia since they are critical access hospitals. MSHA, based in Johnson City, Tennessee includes 8 wholly owned hospitals which are included in this Form 990. In addition, MSHA owns 2 hospitals located in Southwest Virginia, each of which file separate returns. In addition to acute care hospitals, the system includes such services as:Primary/specialty physician practices, emergency departments, occupational medicine, rehabilitation, outreach laboratory, mental health, neonatal intensive care, a NACHARI-affiliated children's hospital, renal dialysis, St. Jude's Oncology, inpatient/outpatient surgery, skilled nursing, long-term care, home health, and more. With these additional facilities and services, MSHA extends a highly effective health care delivery system. Since our system is both horizontally and vertically integrated, patients can be efficiently moved along an integrated, comprehensive continuum of care as their health status dictates. MSHA's flagship facility, Johnson City Medical Center is at the core of the system offering full-service tertiary care. In addition to MSHA hospitals, MSHA is the sole member of Blue Ridge Medical Management Corporation (BRMMC). MSHA extends an integrated healthcare delivery system through BRMMC to include multiple primary and specialty care patient access centers and numerous outpatient care sites, including urgent care centers, occupational medicine services, a same day surgery center and rehabilitation.MSHA partners with East Tennessee State University to operate Overmountain Recovery, an opioid addiction recovery facility located in Gray, Tennessee.MSHA is the sole member of Integrated Solutions Health Network, LLC. (ISHN). ISHN operates Anewcare Collaborative, the region's first accountable care organization, bringing together community health care providers to provide better outcomes and improved patient satisfaction at a lower cost. ISHN also operates Appalachian Highlands Clinically Integrated Network, a Clinical Integration Program that supports and encourages the delivery of quality health care services. Hospitals in the Ballad Health system work closely with one another to share expertise and resources. |
| Part VI, Line 7, Reports Filed With States | TN,VA |
| Part VI, Additional Information | Ballad Health is required to report community benefit estimates on a quarterly basis with the states of Tennessee and Virginia. The reporting includes all of Ballad's hospital organizations and is reported using IRS Form 990, Schedule H instructions for reporting community benefit. Ballad operates under a Cooperative Agreement (CA) in Virginia and a Certificate of Public Advantage (COPA) in Tennessee as obligated by agreements between Ballad and the two states to allow Mountain States Health Alliance and Wellmont Health System to merge. |

| Explanation | The following executives listed in Schedule J, Part II participated in a 457(f) retirement plan provided by Ballad Health (BH). The 457(f) plan is a nonqualified tax-deferred compensation plan available to a select group of key executives for the intent of supporting retention and to offer a competitive total retirement program. Account balances have a "substantial risk of forfeiture". In addition to creditor risk, substantial risk of forfeiture is created through default risk if the participant's employment with Ballad Health is terminated prior to age 65. However, the 457(f) plan contains a non-compete provision that provides the account balance to be paid in a lump sum after the executive satisfies the two-year non-compete period. This provision applies to employer contributions if the executive has provided eligible service for six or more years. The executive will receive the entire account balance if he/she becomes disabled, dies or if the executive terminates for "good reason or is involuntarily terminated without "good cause" within a 24-month period after a change-of-control occurs. Distributions from this plan are subject to federal, state, and local taxes on the entire account balance upon distribution.

| Part III, Program Service Accomplishments | Ballad Health (Ballad) is an integrated healthcare delivery system consisting of 20 hospitals in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia, including a Level 1 Trauma Center, dedicated children's hospital, several community hospitals, four critical access hospitals, a behavioral health hospital, an addiction treatment facility, long-term care facilities, home care and hospice services, retail pharmacies, outpatient services and a comprehensive medical management corporation. Ballad works closely with an active independent medical community and community stakeholders to improve the health and well-being of over one million people in 29 counties of the Appalachian Highlands in Northeast Tennessee, Southwest Virginia, Northwest North Carolina, and Southeast Kentucky. Ballad is a Tennessee non-profit corporation and is the main provider of healthcare services in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia. Ballad Health is a tax-exempt entity and the parent corporation of both Mountain States Health Alliance (MSHA) and Wellmont Health System (WHS). On February 1, 2018, Ballad was formed through a merger of two legacy systems, Mountain States Health Alliance and Wellmont Health System. Ballad was formed under state-action immunity in compliance with federal antitrust law, to create a healthier region and keep healthcare local. The action approving the merger was officially taken through the agreements made between Ballad and the State of Tennessee in the Certificate of Public Advantage (the "COPA") and the Letter Authorizing the Cooperative Agreement (the "CA") in Virginia. Pursuant to the COPA and CA, Ballad must fulfill certain obligations, commitments, and covenants. Tennessee and Virginia, through their respective health departments, supervise specific aspects of Ballad's operations under certain conditions of the COPA and the CA. The COPA and amendments are publicly available on the website of the Tennessee Department of Health, at https://www.tn.gov/health/copa.html. The Cooperative Agreement is available on the website of the Virginia Department of Health, at https://www.vdh.virginia.gov/licensure-and- certification/cooperative-agreement/. Form 990 for Mountain States Health Alliance (MSHA) includes eight wholly owned hospitals including a tertiary hospital, a children's hospital and a behavioral health hospital; two others, wholly owned by MSHA, each file a separate return. MSHA is sole shareholder of Blue Ridge Medical Management Corporation (BRMMC), a for-profit entity that owns and manages physician practices and real estate and provides other health care services to patients in Tennessee and Virginia. MSHA is the sole member of Integrated Solutions Health Network, LLC (ISHN). ISHN, also included in this Form 990, is a regional health solutions company headquartered in Johnson City, Tennessee. ISHN is an expansive network of providers serving residents of Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia and consists of provider groups, primary care physicians, specialists, and allied health providers.

Ballad Health is in its seventh full year of operation under active supervision by the State of Tennessee and the Commonwealth of Virginia. Fiscal Year 2025 was marked by resilience, innovation, and a deepened commitment to improving health outcomes across Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia. Throughout the period, Ballad Health continued to maintain and expand access to essential care and services, delivering high quality care, and reducing the cost of care for the people we are entrusted to serve. Over the past seven years, Ballad Health has made significant strides in regional healthcare. The organization successfully reopened a previously closed hospital in Southwest Virginia, invested capital in critical infrastructure, expanded services where needed, and consolidated others where appropriate. We met the challenges of a global pandemic that claimed thousands of lives in our region and severely disrupted hospital operations. We coordinated care in the wake of Hurricane Helene and its devastating aftermath and worked closely with both the Tennessee Department of Health and Virginia Department of Health to respond to the evolving needs of the region. Notable examples include investments in mental health services, the opening of high-quality childcare centers, the creation of the Quillen Center for Urological Services, and the launch of a new dental clinic that has served thousands of uninsured Virginians. Ballad Health has achieved these milestones while navigating national challenges, often responding faster and more effectively than other well-regarded hospitals and health systems. Similarly, our emergency department performance outpaces other peer hospitals on publicly reported metrics. Furthermore, a recent independent evaluation of physician access revealed that, while the rest of the nation has experienced a decline in physician supply, Ballad Health's rural region has either maintained or improved access in many specialties. In FY25, Ballad Health continued to demonstrate its commitment to improving the health of the Appalachian Highlands region through investments in its people, COPA Plan spending commitments, and capital. These investments included: - Partnering with the Tennessee Center for Nursing Advancement, the ETSU Research Corporation, East Tennessee State University (ETSU) College of Nursing, and StoryCollab on the Nursing Narrative Initiative. This project highlights the voices and experiences of nurses across the region, aiming to inspire future professionals and support current staff through storytelling and reflection. Additionally, investing in Ballad Health team members by launching B Excellent to strengthen our culture through continuous learning, skill-building, and team member engagement. - More than $65 million in new investments for rural health, behavioral health, children's health, population health, health research and graduate medical education, and health information exchange. - Capital spend of over $128 million, the highest level in our history. This included investments in new diagnostic and treatment technology, equipment upgrades, facility improvements, information technology, and the continued expansion of Niswonger Children's Hospital. |
| Hurricane Helene | Hurricane Helene tragically struck on September 27, 2024, causing catastrophic flooding throughout the Appalachian Highlands. Floodwater from Hurricane Helene permanently destroyed Unicoi County Hospital and caused significant disruption to several other facilities. At Greeneville Community Hospital, Sycamore Shoals Hospital, Johnson County Hospital and Laughlin Healthcare services had to be suspended and patients relocated due to flood-related damage and safety concerns. Thanks to Ballad Health's integrated system, coordinated emergency response, and the dedication of our team members, all patients were safely evacuated to other facilities. In response, Ballad Health quickly established a 24/7 advanced urgent care clinic in Erwin, Tennessee, to ensure continued access to critical healthcare services for the community. |
| Strengthening Rural Access Through Strategic Workforce Planning | Ballad Health is taking a proactive approach to protecting care in rural Appalachia. To guide this effort, Ballad Health engaged a nationally recognized healthcare consulting firm to conduct a detailed provider needs assessment. This process closely examines the supply and demand for physicians and advanced practice providers in the region and helps guide recruitment where shortages are most severe, and ensures we meet federal requirements. Nationally, the projected shortage of primary care physicians by 2030 ranges from 27,300 to 40,300, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and other workforce studies. This makes Ballad Health's forward-looking strategy especially critical for rural regions. Since 2018, Ballad Health has recruited more than 800 providers to help close important gaps across the region. Between 2022 and 2025, general primary care adequacy improved from 62% to 72%, and 8 of 12 specialties also showed measurable progress. Ballad Health's access and quality metrics now outperform many national peers. Only 1% of emergency room patients leave before being seen, compared to 6 to 8% at other emergency rooms. Discharge times are up to 100 minutes faster than leading academic medical centers and sepsis care compliance ranks among the best in the country. |
| Quality of Care - Recognition from Independent Organizations: | Ballad Health hospitals achieved national recognition for quality and safety from several respected national organizations, including U.S. News & World Report, the American Medical Association, and the American Heart Association. The Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association designated multiple Ballad Health hospitals as "Blue Distinction Centers" in service areas such as cardiology, hip and knee replacement, and maternity care. In addition, they highlight only five hospitals in Tennessee as "Blue Distinction Centers in Quality and Value" for cardiology services, with two of the five hospitals being Ballad Health facilities. |
| Leading Innovation in Physician Well-Being | Ballad Health Medical Associates has earned bronze-level national recognition from the American Medical Association as a Joy in Medicine Health System organization for taking meaningful steps to address physician burnout and promote well-being across the Appalachian Highlands. Ballad Health Medical Associates is the only organization in Tennessee to receive Joy in Medicine recognition for the 2025-2026 cycle, with only four organizations in Virginia achieving this distinction. |
| Cardiovascular Excellence Continues to Set National Standards | Holston Valley Medical Center continues to lead the nation in cardiovascular care, cementing Ballad Health's reputation as a destination for exceptional cardiac treatment. For 2025, Healthgrades named Holston Valley one of America's 50 Best Hospitals for Vascular Surgery for the sixth consecutive year and ranked it No. 1 in Tennessee for vascular surgery. Holston Valley also earned the Vascular Surgery Excellence Award and received five-star ratings for several critical procedures, including abdominal aorta repair, carotid surgery (achieving this distinction for the 16th year in a row), and peripheral vascular bypass. Holston Valley and Bristol Regional Medical Center earned the Platinum Performance Achievement Award from the American College of Cardiology (ACC) for excellence in heart attack care through the chest pain - MI Registry. Johnston Memorial Hospital received the Silver Performance Achievement Award, recognizing its commitment to evidence-based care and improved outcomes for patients experiencing acute myocardial infarction. These honors reflect the dedication of Ballad Health's clinical teams to consistently deliver high-quality, guideline-driven care that improves survival rates and long-term outcomes for heart patients across the Appalachian Highlands. This recognition reflects Ballad Health's commitment to creating a supportive and efficient work environment for physicians and advanced practice providers, an essential strategy for improving care quality and access in rural communities. These results show Ballad Health's commitment to listening to our communities, recruiting where it matters most, and building the strong healthcare workforce the Appalachian Highlands relies on. |
| Recognition Spanning Our Entire Health System | U.S. News & World Report 2025-2026 National and Regional Distinctions: - Holston Valley Medical Center was named a "Best Regional Hospital and ranked No. 9 in Tennessee, earning "high performing distinctions in 10 different clinical areas. - Bristol Regional Medical Center, Indian Path Community Hospital, and Johnson City Medical Center were recognized for excellence in cardiac, pulmonary, and surgical care. - Specific clinical honors include high-performance ratings in hip fracture and hip replacement care, gynecological cancer treatment, aortic valve surgery, abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, pacemaker implantation, pneumonia care, spinal fusion, colon cancer surgery, transcatheter aortic valve replacement, and diabetes care. |
| Charity Care Update | Ballad Health maintained increased patient eligibility for charity care at 225% of the federal poverty guidelines (up from 200% before the merger in 2018). In FY25, Ballad Health provided over $65 million for charity care, the highest since its formation. Notably, the weighted average median household income in the region is approximately $51,000 with some communities falling below that level. Ballad Health's threshold for free charity care for a family of 2.5 people is approximately $54,000 based on 225% of the Federal Poverty Level. This positions Ballad Health as having one of the most generous charity care policies in the nation. Ballad Health continued its efforts to reduce the number of preventable hospitalizations and emergency department visits. Ballad Health also remained committed to advancing value-based initiatives, such as the Appalachian Highlands Care Network (AHCN). The AHCN connects uninsured patients and their families with free or low-cost clinics, dental services, financial counseling, and preventative care services. The AHCN is recognized as a national model for partnership programs between a health system and local organizations, outpatient clinics and providers working together to deliver a more supportive system of care for the uninsured population. These efforts to provide cost efficient care benefit the taxpayers, patients, and hospitals. By the end of the period, the AHCN had enrolled over 11,100 uninsured individuals, demonstrating its growing impact across the Appalachian Highlands. Progress in Target Areas Ballad Health achieved improvements in the target areas of expanding access to care, improving quality of care, and lowering the cost of care. I. Access to Care & Population Health Access to Care Metrics: Ballad Health achieved improvements in 20 of 25 access measures over the pre-merger baseline. Notable areas of improvement since FY24 include appropriate emergency department wait times, asthma emergency department visits, diabetes screening, and rate of SBIRT administration during emergency department visits. The virtual urgent care platform is available 24/7 and accessible via smartphone or internet, and Ballad Health is the only regional provider offering this service. II. Improving Quality of Care, Patient Experience & Staff Experience a. Quality of Care Metrics: Ballad Health publishes its quality data on its website. The currently reported baselines are pre-COVID. Notable highlights include the following: i. Ballad Health improved in 10 of the 17 target measures for FY25 using the pre-COVID baselines. ii. Emergency Department throughput metrics have shown improvement. Notably, OP22 Left Without Being Seen decreased by 33.8% compared to FY24. The median time from ED arrival to transport for admitted patients and the ED2b ED Decision to Transport (ED1) also improved. iii. Ballad Health implemented a standardized mortality case review process, supported by predictive analytic tools to help caregivers identify and act on early signs of deterioration. These efforts contributed to measurable reductions in mortality from FY23 to FY25, across various conditions, including Heart Failure (25%), Pneumonia (18%), and Sepsis (14%). iv. Among the hospital infection indicators, Ballad Health is performing as expected or meeting the measure in all but one measure when using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's recommended adjustment methodology accounting for differences in patient population. b. Clinical Council: The Clinical Council (the Council) is aligned with the Ballad Health Board of Directors and the Board's Quality, Service and Safety Committee (QSSC). During FY25, the Council was comprised of 27 physicians from many backgrounds and specialties. Of those physicians, nearly half were independent. The Council continued to assist in establishing key quality and patient safety priorities with consideration to risk, volume, propensity for problems (including incidence, prevalence, and severity), impact on health outcomes, patient safety and quality across all areas of care. Key accomplishments in FY25 included: i. enhancements in electronic health record workflows, ii. standardization of a variety of high-value care initiatives, iii. implementation of projects for provider wellbeing and workforce support, iv. updates to medication use processes, and v. improvements to children's and women's care standards. c. Patient Experience: In the aggregate, 90% of patients surveyed by Press-Ganey, the nation's most credible firm for tracking patient and employee experience, would recommend Ballad Health's hospitals. In some Ballad Health hospitals, that number reaches as high as 97%. While emergency department wait times remain a concern, it should be noted that the metrics for Ballad Health outperform national averages, and some of America's, Tennessee's, and Virginia's most well-respected health systems in areas such as patients who leave without being seen, time from presentation to discharge, and sepsis care. III. Lowering Cost of Care Ballad Health and community physicians continue to reduce the cost of care to patients, employers, and government payors through value-based care. a. Price Transparency: Ballad Health continued to meet the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services hospital price transparency requirements under section 2718(e) of the Public Health Service Act. As such, Ballad Health's gross charges, discounted cash prices, payer-specific negotiated rates, and de-identified minimum and maximum negotiated rates for all hospital items and services as well as a consumer-friendly estimator tool and other pricing information are publicly available on its website. b. Cost-Efficiency Measures: According to countyhealthrankings.org, Ballad Health and community physicians have reduced preventable hospitalizations in our region by 50% since 2017. This has resulted in over $200 million of annual recurring savings to taxpayers, employers, and patients. Our region's preventable hospitalization rate is as low, or lower than, communities like Nashville - a stunning result given the magnitude of resources available in those communities. In FY25, Ballad Health saw more than $45 million (for projects greater than $200,000) in savings due to cost-efficiency measures taken across the areas of contract labor, supplies, and pharmacy efficiency. Through the work of the AHCN, Ballad Health has helped reduce preventable hospitalizations for the uninsured population, reducing the cost to taxpayers of charity care, and improving patient safety by avoidance of hospitalization. |

| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | Ballad Health policy requires Board of Directors and Board Committee members, the Executive Chair/President, and Executive Vice Presidents to complete a conflict of interest disclosure statement on an annual basis. Ballad Health policy also requires team members to complete an annual acknowledgement that they have read and understand the conflict of interest policy and they will complete a conflict of interest disclosure statement if they have a conflict of interest. Should a conflict arise, it is the responsibility of the conflicted individual to update his or her disclosure immediately. All meetings of the board or board committees have a standing agenda item first on the agenda titled "Conflicts of Interest". If a member of the board or board committee has a conflict of interest involving any issue on the board agenda, he or she must declare the conflict of interest during the period allotted for disclosure. If any issue arises during a meeting in which the board member has a conflict of interest, he or she must immediately declare the conflict. While each member of the board or board committee is responsible for disclosing conflicts of interest, it is also the responsibility of any board member aware of a conflict which has not been disclosed to ensure the board is made aware. The presiding officer of a board or board committee meeting may ask a conflicted member to excuse themselves from the meeting during the discussion related to the issue with which the conflict of interest applies. Under no circumstances shall a member vote on a matter that gives rise to a potential conflict. This applies to all Ballad Health organizations. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 | Line 15a - Compensation Process for Top Official The executive compensation committee serves as the compensation oversight committee of Ballad Health's Board of Directors. The executive compensation committee is comprised of members who are determined to be independent and whom are not reliant upon any business relationship with Ballad Health for income or compensation. The compensation plan for Alan Levine, Ballad Health's Chairman, President and CEO, was reviewed and approved by the executive compensation committee and then by the Ballad Health Board of Directors in accordance with the Board's compensation policy and practice. The Board of Directors relies upon the advice of an independent and experienced compensation consultant with knowledge about pay practices for comparable positions within the industry, and who has access to broad data, studies and surveys in order to ensure the compensation falls within competitive and appropriate ranges for the position. Line 15b - Compensation Process for Officers On an annual basis, Ballad Health's Human Resources (H/R) Department evaluates compensation for all executives at a position level of Assistant Vice President and above. H/R's evaluation is based on market data obtained from independent third-party consultants for positions with similar responsibilities at similarly situated organizations. Based on this comparable data, Ballad Health's CEO evaluates the data and, if appropriate, makes necessary adjustments. Any adjustments to Senior Vice Presidents or above are reviewed by the Board of Directors Executive Compensation Committee. In addition, Ballad Health offers an incentive plan to executives based on targeted achievement metrics categorized by; Quality, Service and Safety; Access to Care; Financial Stewardship, and any other metrics approved from time to time by the Board of Directors. |
