    PART I, LINE 6A: METHODIST HEALTHCARE-MEMPHIS HOSPITALS' COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT IS PREPARED PRIMARILY BY THE COMMUNICATIONS AND MARKETING DEPARTMENT, WITH SUPPORT FROM THE ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE DEPARTMENTS, OF METHODIST LE BONHEUR HEALTHCARE, THE HOME OFFICE/CORPORATE PARENT ENTITY OF THE HOSPITAL. THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT CAN BE FOUND ON THE COMPANY'S WEBSITE AT WWW.METHODISTHEALTH.ORG UNDER THE "ABOUT US" SECTION.
    PART I, LINE 7: WORKSHEET 2 OF THE 2010 SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS WAS USED TO COMPUTE A COST-TO-CHARGES RATIO THAT WAS USED TO CALCULATE UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID AT COST.
    PART I, L7 COL(F): THE AMOUNT ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25 CONTAINS A BAD DEBT EXPENSE OF $ 94,340,660 THAT HAS BEEN REMOVED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE ON SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F).
    PART III, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT INCLUDE A FOOTNOTE ON BAD DEBTS, ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, OR ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTABLE ACCOUNTS.WORKSHEET 2 OF THE 2010 SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS WAS USED TO COMPUTE A COST-TO-CHARGES RATIO THAT WAS USED TO CALCULATE BAD DEBT AT COST.WHEN A PORTION OF PATIENT CHARGES BECOME PATIENT RESPONSIBILITY, THE AMOUNT IS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBTS AND THEN SENT TO OUR COLLECTION GROUP. ANY PAYMENTS RECOUPED BY OUR COLLECTIONS GROUP ARE THEN APPLIED AGAINST THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE. IT IS OUR ESTIMATION BASED ON HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE THAT ABOUT 50% OF THE REMAINING PORTION OF BAD DEBTS (AFTER RECOVERIES) COULD BE APPLICABLE TO PATIENTS WHO, ON ADDITIONAL REVIEW AND PROVIDING ALL RELEVANT INFORMATION, WOULD QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.
    PART III, LINE 8: THE ORGANIZATION USED ITS MEDICARE COST REPORT TO COMPUTE AMOUNTS PRESENTED ON LINES 5 AND 6.
    PART III, LINE 9B: METHODIST LE BONHEUR HEALTHCARE'S COLLECTION PROCESS BEGINS WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S REVENUE CYCLE TEAM MAKING INITIAL COLLECTION EFFORTS TO RECOUP ALL MONIES DUE FROM THE PATIENTS' INSURANCE PROVIDERS. WHEN THE AMOUNT DUE IS SOLELY THE PATIENT'S PORTION, THE ACCOUNT IS TRANSFERRED TO ANOTHER TEAM THAT SPECIALIZES IN PATIENT PORTION ACCOUNTS (EARLY-OUT PROGRAM). IT IS THIS PROGRAM THAT INITIALLY DETERMINES IF A PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR CHARITY CARE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S POLICY. IF QUALIFICATION IS UNCLEAR, THIS PROGRAM ATTENDS TO THE ACCOUNT FOR A PREDETERMINED TIME THROUGH LETTERS AND PHONE CALLS. THE DURATION IS DEPENDENT ON VARIOUS SCENARIOS THAT AFFECT ITS LENGTH, SUCH AS PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS, DISPUTES, ETC. AFTER THE EARLY-OUT TIME PERIOD HAS EXPIRED, THE ACCOUNT IS THEN SENT TO OUR COLLECTIONS GROUP. AN ACCOUNT PLACED WITH OUR COLLECTION GROUP EXPERIENCES A CONTINUED AND THOROUGH COLLECTION PHASE. ONCE ALL COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED AND IT IS DETERMINED THAT THE REMAINING BALANCE WILL NOT BE COLLECTED, THE ACCOUNT IS REEVALUATED ON THE CRITERIA USED TO DETERMINE FINANCIAL AID ELIGIBILITY.
    PART VI, LINE 2: METHODIST HEALTHCARE- MEMPHIS HOSPITALS (MHMH) COMMISSIONED THE NATIONAL RESEARCH CORPORATION TO ASSESS THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES.

    PART VI, LINE 3: METHODIST HEALTHCARE- MEMPHIS HOSPITALS UTILIZES THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES (FPG) TO DETERMINE THE LEVEL OF DISCOUNT UNINSURED PATIENTS MAY RECEIVE.

AS A FAITH-BASED INSTITUTION, WE ARE WORKING TO DEFINE HOW WE CAN BETTER UTILIZE OUR FAITH RESOURCES AND OTHER ASSETS IN THE COMMUNITY TO IMPROVE HEALTH. THAT MISSION HAS RESULTED IN A STRATEGY AROUND CONGREGATIONS AND OUR CONNECTION WITH THEM. WE BELIEVE THAT CONGREGATIONS CAN PLAY A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN HEALTHCARE WHEN THEY ARE STRATEGIC PARTNERS IN THEIR MEMBERS' HEALTH JOURNEYS. TO THAT END, WE HAVE ENTERED INTO COVENANT RELATIONSHIPS WITH 350+ CONGREGATIONS TO IMPROVE THE ACCESS TO COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH SERVICES FOR ALL CITIZENS AND TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH STATUS OF THESE PATIENTS. THE CENTER OF EXCELLENCE IN FAITH AND HEALTH (COE) WAS COMPLETED IN JANUARY 2011 AND IS HOUSED IN RENOVATED SPACE AT METHODIST UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL. THE COE WILL ADVANCE HEALTH BY BRINGING FAITH AND HEALTH TOGETHER FOR THE IMPROVED WELLBEING OF THOUSANDS OF PATIENTS. THE CENTER'S GOAL IS TO DRAMATICALLY ENHANCE QUALITY OF CARE AND SUPPORT FOR OUR PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. WE BELIEVE THAT THE COUPLING OF FAITH AND HEALTH CAN NOT ONLY ELEVATE THE LEVEL OF CARE WE DELIVER TO OUR PATIENTS, BUT ALSO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR OUR COMMUNITY AND BEYOND. THE ACTUAL CENTER OF EXCELLENCE SPACE TRANSFORMED THE PREVIOUSLY EXISTING INTENSIVE CARE WAITING ROOM INTO A STATE-OF-THE-ART FAMILY-CENTERED HEALING ENVIRONMENT WITH A QUIET AREA, RESOURCE ROOM, EDUCATION SPACES, MOVEABLE FURNITURE, AS WELL AS SPACE FOR LOCAL CLERGY TO COUNSEL THEIR MEMBERS.
