Identifier ReturnReference Explanation
Part I line 3c   Rush uses the Federal Poverty Guidelines to determine eligibility for providing free care and discounted care to low income individuals. In keeping with Rush University Medical Centers Mission to provide comprehensive, coordinated health care services to our patients, Rush offers several financial assistance programs to help patients with their hospital bill. To assist the patient in deciding which is the right program for them, Rush offers the services of Financial Counselors and Billing Customer Service Representatives. These individuals will assist patients in completion of financial application forms, obtaining an estimated cost of anticipated hospital services, providing an explanation and copy of their hospital bill, and notary services.
Part I line 3c   During FY2011, Rush provided 124 million in unreimbursed care to its patients. Unreimbursed care consists of charity care provided to patients who lack the means to pay for services at cost, bad debt at expected payment, not charges, and unreimbursed costs for Medicaid and Medicare services. Rush recognizes the need to simplify charity policies and to expand assistance to the growing population of uninsured and underinsured individuals. To assist patients in their hospital bill, Rush offers the following financial assistance programs
Part I line 3c   Paid in Full Charity Care Patients qualify for the Rush Charity Care program if their income level is at or below 300 percent of the federal poverty level. That means that individuals qualify if they earn less than 66,050 and are supporting a family of four. These patients are eligible for a full write-off of their bill.
Part I line 3c   Discounts for Limited Income Rush assists families with limited incomes, defined as annual income less than 400 percent of the federal poverty level FPL, who are eligible for a write-off of up to 70 percent of the bill.
Part I line 3c   Discounts for Self-Pay Patients Rush offers an automatic 65 percent discount for residents of Illinois who do not have a health insurance plan. Non Illinois residents who do not have health insurance automatically qualify for a 50 percent discount. For patients who cannot pay their portion of the bill at the time of service, financial counselors work closely with them to set up monthly installment payment plans with no interest at an amount with which the patient is comfortable.
Part I line 3c   State and Federal Programs Financial counselors work with patients and alert them if they qualify for one of a handful of state and federal programs such as the states Medical Assistance Non-Grant program or the Social Security Disability program. Because the paperwork required for these programs can be overwhelming, Rush has specialists onsite who assist patients with the application process. Through these efforts, we have qualified individuals for a social security disability who are not age 65, while at the same time ensuring payment for their hospital bill.
Part I line 3c   Payment plans Rush maintained a patient-eligibility service throughout FY 2011 at a cost of 408,000. This service focuses on providing patients who arrive at Rush without insurance with the coverage they are entitled to under various federal and state programs. In addition to achieving insurance coverage for these patients medical bills, this service obtains eligibility for SSI or SSA benefits, which assist patients beyond their hospital stay. During FY 2011, Rush provided discounts to uninsured patients of 24,221,105. These discounts are not included in Schedule H. Rush currently does not test assets.
Part I line 6a   The Community Benefit Report for RUMC is a separate report prepared by Rush. Rush prepares and files the Annual Non-Profit Community Benefit Plan Report with the Attorney Generals Office of the State of Illinois which includes Rush University Medical Center and Rush Oak Park Hospital. For the purpose of Schedule H, only financial information for Rush University Medical Center is reported. There is no data included for Rush Oak Park Hospital.
Part I line 7g   Rush has included subsidized costs attributable to physician clinics totaling 64,094,066.
Part I line 7 column f   Total expenses reported on Form 990, Part IX, line 25, column A include bad debt expense. However, for the purposes of Schedule H this expense has been removed from the denominator when calculating the percent of total expense considered the net community benefit expense and reported on Part I, Line 7, column f. The amount of bad debt expense excluded from this percentage calculation is 42,574,516.
Part I line 7   The calculation of the ratio of patient cost to charges was based on Rushs filed Medicare Cost Report and follows the format based on Worksheet 2 of the Instructions to Schedule H. Medicare revenues and costs were extracted from the FY11 As-Filed Medicare Cost report.
Part III line 4   The cost for the total bad debt provision of 42,574,516 was calculated using the cost to charge ratio described above. Rush does not have a footnote in the financial statements that describes bad debt expense. However, Rush provides a significant amount of uncompensated care to uninsured and underinsured patients, which is reported as provision for bad debts. During FY11, Rushs reported provision for bad debts was a total of 42,574,516. The Rush provision combined with the Rush University Medical Group RUMG provision of 7,711,903 equates to 12,323,981 at cost based on an overall cost to charge ratio.
Part III line 4   Rush does not include discounts and payments in bad debt expense in the financial statements. Any payments received after an account has been written off to bad debt is considered a recovery and classified as such. Recoveries are classified as a decrease to bad debt expense.
Part III line 8   The calculation of the ratio of patient cost to charges was calculated utilizing Rushs 2011 As-Filed Medicare Cost Report and follows the format based on Worksheet 2 of the Instructions to Schedule H. Medicare revenues and costs were extracted from the FY11 As-Filed Medicare Cost report. There is no reported Medicare shortfall.
Part III line 9b   In keeping with Rush University Medical Centers Mission to provide comprehensive, coordinated health care services to our patients, Rush offers several financial assistance programs to help patients with their hospital bill. If Rush is aware that a patient qualifies for financial assistance, these accounts will not be referred to a collection agency. It is the policy of RUMC to offer patients a payment plan and/or charity assistance when it becomes known that a patient needs financial assistance. RUMC works with patients to help determine if there are any third party payers which may be available to help the patient meet their obligations. RUMC works with patients to determine if they qualify for one of a handful of state and federal programs such as the states Medical Assistance Program or the Social Security Disability program and RUMC has specialists on site who assist patients with the application process.
Part III line 9b   In the discussion of the Medical Centers provision of charity care to our patient population there are several factors which must be considered in addition to the charity care number provided for purposes of Schedule H to obtain a full understanding of the breadth of charity provided by Rush. These factors are outlined as follows
Part III line 9b   Through utilization of a patient eligibility service the Medical Center is extremely proactive in enrolling patients who arrive at Rush without insurance coverage into various state and federal programs that provide health insurance coverage. The maintenance of this service for our patients has a significant impact on decreasing the amount of charity care provided. In addition to achieving appropriate, available coverage for our patients medical services, this eligibility service also obtains eligibility for SSI or SSA benefits for applicable patients. Guiding the patient through this often time consuming and arduous process is extremely beneficial to the patient, as once SSI/SSA eligibility is approved, the patient will begin receiving a monthly assistance check that provides a benefit well beyond their health care at Rush.
Part III line 9b   Due to the process that Rush and other hospitals must facilitate to prove a patients eligibility for discounted or free care, the precise amount of charity care often can be indistinguishable from other categories of uncompensated care. Without the cooperation of the patient in providing appropriate documentation, Rush cannot correctly distinguish patients who meet the defined charity care policies and appropriately categorize those individuals as charity care write-offs. Instead, these patient cases are frequently classified as bad debt write-offs due to a lack of support information. This creates a reported charity care amount that is not representative of the true amount of free care provided to low income and indigent patients.
Part VI Line 2   Building on a long tradition of commitment to its diverse communities and neighbors, Rush recognizes the immense needs of its core service areas. With ongoing community service programs throughout Chicago, Rush will focus its patient care, research, education and workforce development outreach efforts on three community areas - East Garfield Park, Near Westside and West Town. This will be the starting point in an incremental approach to community benefits planning. Over time, the focus will expand to the larger West Side of Chicago and to the broader Chicago Metropolitan Area.
Part VI Line 2   The Community Benefits Plan developed and implemented by Rush focuses on applying our strengths and available resources to programs that improve and promote the physical, educational and economic health of our communities. To more thoroughly assess and understand the health and wellness needs of the communities we serve and align our outreach efforts within our patient care areas, Rush continued to participate in the Metropolitan Chicago Healthcare Councils MCHC Community Needs Assessment Program during FY 2011. The expectation of community health needs assessments for measuring the impact of hospitals outreach efforts continues to grow and Rush remains committed to collaborations that help to identify and address those needs in the communities we serve.
Part VI Line 3   Through utilization of a patient eligibility service the Medical Center is extremely proactive in enrolling patients, who present for service without insurance coverage, for coverage under various state and federal programs. The maintenance of this service for our patients has a significant impact on decreasing the amount of charity care provided. In addition to achieving appropriate, available coverage for our patients medical services, this eligibility service also obtains eligibility for SSI or SSA benefits for applicable patients. Guiding the patient through this often time-consuming and arduous process is extremely beneficial to the patient, as once SSI/SSA eligibility is approved, the patient will begin receiving a monthly assistance check which provides a benefit well beyond their health care at Rush.
Part VI Line 3   To assist the patient in deciding which is the right program for them, Rush offers the services of Financial Counselors and Billing Customer Service Representatives. These individuals will assist patients in completion of financial application forms, obtaining an estimated cost of anticipated hospital services, providing an explanation and copy of their hospital bill, and notary services.
Part VI Line 4   Building on a long tradition of commitment to its diverse communities and neighbors, Rush recognizes the immense needs of its core service areas. With ongoing community service programs throughout Chicago, Rush will focus its patient care, research, education and workforce development outreach efforts on three community areas - East Garfield Park, Near Westside and West Town. This will be the starting point. Over time, the focus will expand to the larger West Side of Chicago and to the broader Chicago Metropolitan Area. As an academic medical center, Rush performs many community benefit activities in neighborhoods within and surrounding the Illinois Medical District IMD and throughout Chicago. For the purposes of this plan and future planning initiatives, Rush defines its community using the recognized Chicago Community Areas of West Town, East Garfield Park and Near West Side. These geographical areas encompass the location of the Medical Center in addition to the locations of clinics that are the sites for a significant number of community benefit projects.
Part VI Line 4   Despite these boundaries, Rush does not plan to discontinue those activities currently undertaken outside the aforementioned community areas. For example, the Science and Math Excellence SAME Network supports educational efforts in Chicago Public Schools across the City in more than 40 schools. In addition, Rushs financial assistance policies apply to all Rush patients in the State of Illinois.
Part VI Line 5   Many of the community benefits activities implemented by Rush University Medical Center address the Chicago Department of Public Healths strategic priorities. While Rushs McCormick Center for Advanced Emergency Response continues to contribute to strategic priority 4, numerous Rush outreach programs are aligned with strategic priorities 1, 2 and 3 including the Clinic at Franciscan House of Mary Joseph, the Community Health Clinic, the Health Educators/ASAP program, Marahs Place, Red Ribbon Friends, the Maternal Advocates Program, and the Rush Adolescent Family Center. Following a community needs assessment in FY 2008, a formal planning process was initiated in FY 2009 to ensure that future community benefits efforts aligned with the needs of the community.
Part VI Line 5   The Community Benefits Plan developed and implemented at Rush focuses on applying our strengths and available resources to programs that improve and promote the physical, educational and economic health of our communities. To further that effort, Rush continues to participate in the Metropolitan Chicago Healthcare Councils MCHC Community Needs Assessment Program and remains committed to collaborations that help identify and address those needs in the communities we serve.

In addition, Rushs financial assistance policies apply to all Rush patients in the State of Illinois.
Part VI Line 6   Rush University Medical Center also collaborates with various other community partners to provide not only patient care, but also learning and community health opportunities for residents. Some of those activities include partnerships with the John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County, the Chicago Public School system, Chicago Department of Family and Support Services, American Red Cross, United Way, Chicago Department of Public Health, Chicago Bulls, and Malcolm X College one of the City Colleges of Chicago.
Part VI Line 6   The governing body of Rush is comprised of persons who reside in the eight county metropolitan area that is served by Rush. Rush works as a closed system regarding medical staff privileges. Rush recruits all physicians and a physician must be a faculty member to be on the medical staff to have privileges. As a not-for-profit academic medical center, any excess funds earned by Rush are used to support our mission of providing excellent patient care, medical education, research and community support.
Part VI Line 6   Rush University Medical Center has an affiliation with Rush Oak Park Hospital. Rush Oak Park Hospital ROPH is a Catholic community hospital consisting of 296 beds located in Oak Park, Illinois and affiliated with Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, IL and Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare, Inc., in Wheaton, IL. The affiliation between Rush University Medical Center RUMC and Rush Oak Park Hospital provides patients with access to advanced medical treatments without having to leave their neighborhoods. ROPH is committed to balancing clinical excellence with compassionate care and greater community outreach programs in order to provide a lifetime of care for individuals and their entire family. For the purposes of Schedule H, only financial information for Rush University Medical Center is reported. There is no data included for Rush Oak Park Hospital.
Part VI Line 6   The Community Benefit Report for RUMC is a separate report prepared by Rush. Rush prepares and files the Annual Non-Profit Community Benefit Plan Report with the Attorney Generals Office of the State of Illinois which includes Rush University Medical Center and Rush Oak Park Hospital.
