| Client Note 1 - WellSpan Health - 2011 Community Benefit ReportThere are 78,000 people in York and Adams counties without health insurance. Find out how we help.At WellSpan Health we work to remove barriers to good health for every member of our community.Every member of our community deserves the care they need.At WellSpan, it is our core belief that accessible health care is one of the keys to a healthy community. Yet, in York and Adams counties, there are 78,000 individuals who live without health insurance. This community health problem cannot be ignored and requires careful planning and forethought. Fortunately, WellSpan has done both.We take measures to care for those who have no insurance and are unable to pay. We offer discounted care to individuals whose income falls within 300 percent of federal poverty guidelines. Additionally, all uninsured patients, regardless of whether they qualify for charity care, receive discounts similar to those offered to private insurance companies. We offer free care to patients who participate in our charity care program.Together with our community partners, we support programs to take basic primary care and other services into urban and rural communities, improve access to oral health care and help people establish a "medical home" with a primary care physician.In 2010, WellSpan Health provided over $100 million in care for the uninsured and underinsured. The net cost of care provided in 2010:"Charity Care: $18.4 million in free care to patients who participated in our charity care program "Medicare: $61.5 million in cost greater than what was paid by Medicare "Medicaid: $61.1 million in cost greater than what was paid by Medicaid "Uncompensated Care: $23.4 million in services to patients who received care for which they did not pay and who did not participate in the charity care program "Community Education and Outreach: $5.7 million in free community education and outreach to children and at-risk groups "Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Care: $12.1 million to support services that provided discounted medical, dental and pharmaceutical care to people in need When Susan Kittrell needed care in 2008, we provided it, regardless of her ability to pay.The last few years have been tough for Susan Kittrell of York. Three years ago after having a routine tuberculosis test, providers noticed an abnormal reading and recommended a chest x-ray. The test showed a serious health risk: a thoracic aortic aneurysm. Kittrell had open bypass surgery to repair the aneurysm, but it wasn't long after the initial surgery that she felt a burning in her spine that led her back to the hospital and into surgery for another aneurysm. This time, she required open heart surgery. Then earlier this year, physicians saw something suspicious on a chest x-ray that ended up being another aortic aneurysm. Unfortunately, this aneurysm burst during surgery and physicians had to replace part of her aorta.Kittrell's health challenges over the past few years have made it impossible for her to return to her job at Dentsply. As a result, she lost her health insurance, which made it difficult for her to afford the critical care that she needed. Fortunately, Healthy York Network (HYN) was there."If it wasn't for HYN, I don't know where I would be," says Kittrell. "After I lost my health coverage, I couldn't afford the medicines that I needed to take, let alone the surgeries that were necessary to fix the aneurysms. Thankfully, the folks at York Hospital realized my challenges and connected me with HYN." "I have been blessed with the best of care," remarks Kittrell. "I thank God everyday for WellSpan Health and HYN. They have helped me during a really difficult time and I can't express my gratitude enough." 10 Initiatives we support that help care for the uninsuredInitiatives we support Who benefits?Our progress in 2010HealthConnect, a mobile health care program that provides basic primary care services and helps individuals find a medical home Individuals who lack sufficient health insurance1,330 visits937 new patients219 referrals to a medical homeHealthy York Network and Healthy Community Pharmacy, a collaborative effort that facilitates access to discounted health care services and prescription medicationIndividuals who lack sufficient health insurance$30 million of care provided to more than 8,309 members9,077 new members enrolled52,730 prescriptions filledCommunity Health Workers, who help people navigate the health care system, enroll in public assistance programs and implement health outreach programsIndividuals who lack sufficient health insurance and people of disparate populations179 adults and 250 children completed applications for public insurance programsFamily First Health's Hannah Penn Health Center, a partnership of York Hospital, Family First Health and the City of York School DistrictUnderserved adults and children, including those who lack sufficient health insurance and those with Medicaid4,813 acute and preventive medical visits1,775 dental visits in calendar year 2010 Family First Health's Gettysburg Center, a federally qualified community health center that WellSpan supports to provide medical and dental services in Adams CountyUnderserved adults and children of Adams County, including those who lack sufficient health insurance and those with MedicaidActively supported the start-up of the center and its ability to attract 5,908 patients during the past yearYork Hospital Community Health Center, which provides primary care services, women's health care, HIV care and pediatric care for medically complex conditionsAdults and children who lack sufficient health insurance27,056 primary care visits and 21,778 obstetrics and gynecology visitsThomas Hart Family Practice Center, which is staffed by resident and faculty physicians at York Hospital and provides acute, chronic, preventive and obstetric careAdults and children, many of whom lack sufficient health insurance27,800 visitsThe George W.

At WellSpan, we wholeheartedly agree with the World Health Organization's assessment that health is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." And we recognize the dangers and issues facing a community that cannot achieve this level of health.To help our communities become healthy places to live, work and play, we are constantly planning for the future, developing partnerships, building community assets, engaging citizens, and sponsoring initiatives. Our efforts are broad based and wide reaching, but so is the need. We believe that our progress, on all fronts, continues to make a difference.WellSpan partners with the York County Children's Advocacy Center to help children who have been victims of sexual abuse. It's a tragic reality that sexual abuse of children is a widespread problem across the country. A 2006 study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggests that one in four girls, and one in six boys, are sexually abused before the age of 18. In addition to finding out how to stop the abuse before it starts, the question of how to help a child once the abuse has occurred is vital.After a child discloses the abuse, an appropriate response is extremely important to the child's healing process. In the past, there was no mechanism for coordinating the services needed to respond to such a case. Instead, a child would be shuffled between various agencies requiring the victim to retell his story multiple times, vividly reliving the pain and confusion surrounding the experience.In recent years, communities across the country, including York and Adams, have established child advocacy centers to help meet the unique needs of a vulnerable population. By coordinating between community agencies and professionals involved in the intervention system, the goal is one interview and one physical exam for the victim. Over the past year, this goal has become a reality for both the York County Children's Advocacy Center and the Adams County Children's Advocacy Center thanks to a partnership between the two community groups and WellSpan.
