		PART VI, LINE 2: ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS, NGMC SEEKS A VARIETY DATA SOURCES AND RELIABLE INDICATORS TO HELP IDENTIFY AND ELIMINATE HEALTH INEQUITIES IN THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES. A LISTING OF THE PRIMARY SOURCES AND RESOURCES ARE LISTED BELOW:- SINCE 1997, NGMC HAS CONDUCTED A COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT EVERY 3 - 5 YEARS THROUGH A COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP CALLED HEALTHLY HALL. THE MOST RECENT ASSESSMENT WAS CONDUCTED IN 2007, AND RESULTS WERE SHARED WIDELY VIA OUR WEBSITE, WWW.HEALTHYHALL.COM. THE ASSESSMENT INCLUDED FOCUS GROUPS, A TELEPHONE SURVEY AND A REVIEW OF SECONDARY RESEARCH.- A PRESENTATION WAS GIVEN AT THE ASSOCIATION FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT'S (ACHI) NATIONAL CONFERENCE IN LOS ANGELES, CA, IN MARCH 2009 BY NGMC'S MANAGER OF COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT AND BILL STILES OF STILES HEALTHCARE STRATEGY. THE TITLE OF PRESENTATION: "HEALTHY HALL: ONE COMMUNITY'S GUIDE TO CONDUCTING SUCCESSFUL COMMUNITY ASSESSMENTS THAT LEAD TO POWERFUL OUTCOMES." (THE ASSOCIATION FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT (ACHI) IS A PUBLIC HEALTH ORGANIZATION FOUNDED IN 2002. IT IS A PROGRAM OF THE HEALTH RESEARCH AND EDUCATIONAL TRUST AND AN AFFILIATE OF THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION.) - NGMC ALSO PARTNERED WITH THE HALL COUNTY FAMILY CONNECTION TO PRODUCE THE HALL LIFE REPORT IN 2007, AND THE WEB VERSION IN 2010. THE PURPOSE OF THIS "PUBLIC STATUS REPORT ON CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN HALL COUNTY," IS TO PROVIDE POLICY STAKEHOLDERS, PUBLIC AGENCY PROGRAM PERSONNEL, PRIVATE PROVIDERS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH UPDATED INDICATOR DATA TO INFORM CURRENT POLICY DISCUSSIONS AND DECISION-MAKING. THE HALL LIFE REPORT IDENTIFIES THE STATUS OF LEADING INDICATORS FOR EXCELLENCE. THE FIVE TOPIC AREAS USED IN THIS REPORT ARE CURRENTLY THE SAME AS THOSE USED BY THE FAMILY CONNECTION PARTNERSHIP AT THE STATE LEVEL AS THEY PRODUCE AND DISSEMINATE THE ANNUAL KIDS COUNT DATA FOR THE STATE OF GEORGIA. THEY ARE: HEALTHY CHILDREN, CHILDREN READY FOR SCHOOL, CHILDREN SUCCEEDING IN SCHOOL, STABLE AND SELF SUFFICIENT FAMILIES, AND STRONG COMMUNITIES. THIS REPORT CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.HCFCN.ORG.- ADDITIONALLY, NGMC HAS PARTNERED WITH OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS IN THE COMMUNITY TO FORM THE HEALTHCARE INITIATIVE CONSORTIUM. THIS GROUP IS WORKING WITH A LOCAL UNIVERSITY TO DEVELOP AN ONGOING DATABASE OF FIVE DATA ELEMENTS THAT WILL GIVE THE COMMUNITY UP-TO-DATE INFORMATION ON THE HEALTH ISSUES AFFECTING ITS RESIDENTS. THE FIVE DATA ELEMENTS BEING PLANNED TO COLLECT ARE: BMI (HEIGHT/WEIGHT), A1C, BLOOD PRESSURE, CHOLESTEROL, LDL, AND MICRO ALBUMEN. THIS WILL GIVE US INFORMATION RELATED TO THE FOLLOWING HEALTH ISSUES: OBESITY, DIABETES, CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE AND HYPERTENSION.- LASTLY, COUNTY BY COUNTY DATA HAS BEEN MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE "PARTNER UP! FOR PUBLIC HEALTH CAMPAIGN." THIS IS A STATE WIDE ADVOCACY CAMPAIGN FUNDED BY THE HEALTHCARE GEORGIA FOUNDATION DESIGNED TO ADVANCE PUBLIC HEALTH IN GEORGIA. MORE INFORMATION AND THE DATA BY COUNTY CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.TOGETHERWECANDOBETTER.COM. THE HALL COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT ALSO SHARES ITS HEALTH RISK SNAPSHOTS FOR COUNTIES IN THE SERVICE AREA, WHICH FOCUSES ON POPULATION TRENDS, YOUTH RISK, INFANT RISK, GENERAL RISK, STUDENT SUBSTANCE ABUSE, TOP CAUSES OF DEATH AND WIC NUTRITION PROGRAM INFORMATION.
		PART VI, LINE 3: NORTHEAST GEORGIA MEDICAL CENTER POSTS NOTICES AT ALL REGISTRATION AREAS TO INFORM PATIENTS AND FAMILIES OF THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. ALL UNINSURED PATIENTS ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL ARE CONTACTED BY THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DEPARTMENT AND SCREENED FOR ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAID, INDIGENT CARE, AND OTHER ASSISTANCE AS APPROPRIATE. THE CHARITY/INDIGENT POLICY AND INFORMATION FOR APPLICATION FOR THESE FUNDS IS PRINTED IN THE FINANCIAL SECTION OF THE PATIENT HANDBOOK. THE SAME MESSAGE IS PRINTED ON ALL PATIENT STATEMENTS AND IS POSTED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S WEBSITE AS WELL.
		PART VI, LINE 4: LOCATED IN THE NORTHEASTERN SECTION OF THE STATE IN HALL COUNTY, NORTHEAST GEORGIA MEDICAL CENTER (NGMC) IS A 557-BED NOT-FOR-PROFIT REGIONAL REFERRAL FACILITY THAT PROVIDES A COMPREHENSIVE RANGE OF ACUTE CARE AND SPECIALTY SERVICES. THROUGH ITS ROLE AS A REGIONAL SAFETY NET HOSPITAL, NGMC SERVES THE AREA'S LOW-INCOME, UNINSURED, UNDERINSURED AND OTHER VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. APPROXIMATELY HALF OF NGMC'S PATIENTS COME FROM OUTSIDE OF HALL COUNTY. THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S SERVICE AREA EXPERIENCED AN AVERAGE ANNUAL POPULATION GROWTH OF 4.3% BETWEEN 1990 AND 2000, WHILE THE STATE OF GEORGIA POPULATION'S ANNUAL GROWTH RATE AVERAGED APPROXIMATELY ONE-HALF THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S SERVICE AREA RATE, AVERAGING 2.4%. SURVEYS BY GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH AND CLARITAS, INC SHOW THAT THE SERVICE AREA'S TOTAL POPULATION IS PROJECTED TO CONTINUE TO INCREASE AT A SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER RATE (I.E. ALMOST DOUBLE) THAN THAT OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA AS A WHOLE. THIS SIGNIFICANT POPULATION GROWTH IN THE SERVICE AREA WILL CONTINUE TO DRIVE INCREASES IN DEMAND FOR HEALTH CARE SERVICES.UNEMPLOYMENT DATA PROVIDED BY U.S. DEPT. OF LABOR, BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS & DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND STATE OF GEORGIA ILLUSTRATES THAT THE REGION'S ECONOMY IS MORE RESILIENT THAN THAT OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA OR THE UNITED STATES AS A WHOLE DURING DOWNTURNS.IN 2013, NORTHEAST GEORGIA MEDICAL CENTER PLANS TO BREAK GROUND ON A NEW 100-BED INPATIENT HOSPITAL AT NGMC'S RIVER PLACE CAMPUS IN THE SOUTHEASTERN CORNER OF HALL COUNTY. THE PROPERTY COMPRISES 119 ACRES AND CURRENTLY CONTAINS ONE MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING HOUSING MEDICAL-PRACTICE AND OTHER MEDICAL-RELATED OFFICES. AT LEAST TWO MORE MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS ARE PLANNED FOR THE RIVER PLACE CAMPUS. NGMC'S NEW HOSPITAL IS THE FIRST INCREMENTAL HOSPITAL (I.E., NOT A REPLACEMENT OR CONSOLIDATION OF EXISTING HOSPITAL(S)) APPROVED IN GEORGIA IN MORE THAN 20 YEARS. THE LAST DECADE OR MORE OF POPULATION GROWTH IN THIS AREA OF THE STATE HAS RESULTED IN HIGH, UNMET DEMAND FOR INPATIENT HOSPITAL BEDS ACCORDING TO THE STATE'S OWN CON "NEED" CALCULATIONS.)IN LATE 2011, NGMC AND THE GREATER HALL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ENGAGED GEORGIA TECH'S ENTERPRISE INNOVATION INSTITUTE TO EXAMINE THE POTENTIAL FISCAL AND ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF THE NEW HOSPITAL. OVERALL, THE FISCAL AND ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF THE HOSPITAL AND MEDICAL OFFICE COMPLEX ARE VERY ADVANTAGEOUS TO THE COUNTY GOVERNMENT AND TO THE COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT. SOME OF THE STUDY'S RESULTS ARE AS FOLLOWS:. IMPACT: THE FISCAL IMPACT OF THE HOSPITAL ON HALL COUNTY'S GOVERNMENT IS MEASURED BY THE 20-YEAR NPV (NET PRESENT VALUE), WHICH COMES TO $3,770,955.. IMPACT: THE FISCAL IMPACT OF THE HOSPITAL ON HALL COUNTY'S SCHOOL SYSTEM COMES TO A 20-YEAR NPV OF $4,973,998.. IMPACT: THE FISCAL IMPACT OF THE MEDICAL OFFICE COMPLEX OF PROVIDERS AND NON-PROVIDERS ON HALL COUNTY'S GOVERNMENT COMES TO A 20-YEAR NPV OF $4,664,663.. IMPACT: THE FISCAL IMPACT OF THE MEDICAL OFFICE COMPLEX OF PROVIDERS AND NON-PROVIDERS ON HALL COUNTY'S SCHOOL SYSTEM COMES TO A 20-YEAR NPV OF $7,674,804.THE HEALTH SYSTEM ANTICIPATES INVESTING CLOSE TO $200 MILLION ON THE NEW HOSPITAL CAMPUS OVER THE NEXT 5 YEARS TO MEET THE WELL-ESTABLISHED DEMAND IN THAT COMMUNITY FOR HEALTHCARE AND INPATIENT HOSPITAL SERVICES.

ALL PHYSICIANS UNDERGO AN EXTENSIVE CREDENTIALING PROCESS PRIOR TO BEING GRANTED MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES. THE MEDICAL CENTER CONDUCTS PHYSICIAN MANPOWER STUDIES TO DETERMINE THE NUMBER OF PHYSICIANS NEEDED BY SPECIALTY TO MEET COMMUNITY NEED. INFORMATION FROM THESE STUDIES IS USED TO HELP GUIDE DECISIONS FOR PHYSICIAN RECRUITMENT. ALL REVENUES IN EXCESS OF EXPENSES ARE REINVESTED INTO HEALTHCARE SERVICES FOR THE COMMUNITY AND NO PROFITS ACCRUE TO INDIVIDUAL INVESTORS. THE MEDICAL CENTER'S CHARITY CARE POLICY HELPS ENSURE ACCESS TO HOSPITAL SERVICES TO LOW INCOME PATIENTS. I.E. PATIENTS WITH A FAMILY INCOME OF LESS THAN OR 150% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES QUALIFY FOR A 100% CHARITY ADJUSTMENT, WHICH MEANS THAT THEY SERVICES ARE FREE.NORTHEAST GEORGIA MEDICAL CENTER ALSO OPERATES AN EMERGENCY ROOM 24/7 WHICH PROVIDES SERVICES WITHOUT REGARD TO A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY.
