	As discussed herein, Cobb Hospital, Inc (an affiliate of Wellstar Health System, Inc.) operates as a charitable organization consistent with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 501 (c) (3) and the "community benefit standard" of IRS Revenue Ruling 69-545. In this regard, the governing body of the organization and/or its parent is composed of prominent citizens in the community, medical staff privileges in the hospital are available to all qualified physicians in the area consistent with the size and nature of the facility; the hospital operates a full-time emergency room open to all regardless of ability to pay; the hospital provides care to the needy members of the community consistent with its charity care policy regardless of their ability to pay for these services. The hospital's excess funds are generally applied to expansion and replacement of existing facilities and equipment, amortization of indebtedness, improvement of patient care, community benefits activity, and charity care. Cobb Hospital reinvested a total of approximately $21.2 million in capital expenditures for equipment upgrades and other capital improvements to better serve the community. Cobb Hospital was organized in 1984. The hospital affiliated with the Northwest Georgia Health System in 1993. In 1994, Northwest Georgia Health System helped form the PROMINA Health System and changed its name to Promina Northwest Health System. In 1998 Promina Northwest changed its name to Wellstar Health System and is now totally independent of Promina. Cobb Hospital is subordinate to, and subject to the authority of Wellstar Health System and its governing boards including the Hospital Authority of Cobb County. Cobb Hospital provides a full range of inpatient and outpatient services characteristic of a community hospital. The hospital is licensed to operate 382 beds and is presently staffed to operate 370 beds. The original hospital was constucted in 1968 and several major structural additions have happened since that time. The following stats constitute the overall program services provided during the reporting period ended June 30, 2011: Adult Discharges 21,513 Med/Surg Short Stay days 4,529 Emergency Room Visits (incl pediatric ER) 94,953 Outpatient Surgical Cases 7,652 Inpatient Surgical Cases 3,878 Outpatient Procedures Non-ED OP Radiology 63,044 GI Laboratory 1,555 Total FTEs (paid) 1,952 Community Benefit Reporting Community Outreach (incl system-wide alloc) $1,394,265 Unreimbursed Charity Care (at cost) $19,519,332 Medicaid Shortfalls (at cost) $ 7,780,976 Total $28,694,573 As an affiliate of Wellstar Health System, Cobb Hospital participates in many community and educational programs for the overall health and benefit of the area that they serve. Some examples of those programs are: Community Health/Education--screenings and educational opportunities such as denfensive driving for teens (offered at a minimal cost or at no cost), smoking cessation, heart smart school, CPR and others. System-wide over 200,000 residents from the community participated in these various screenings. The Public Relations department notifies the public of these offerings by publishing a quarterly mailer to community residents which costs the system over $80,000. Community Activities--sponsors blood drives, provides funding to school health programs for medical and dental preventive care. Community Events--Wellstar has an annual day for the Latino community geared at screenings and educational activities on a variety of health issues specifically for the Hispanic community. Sponsorships A group of employees also participated in the annual "Relay for Life: an event to raise funds and awareness for cancer research and prevention (held in conjunction with the American Cancer Society). System-wide a total of $10,000 was raised to support cancer research, education and patient services. Recognition and Accomplishments Cobb Hospital and Kennestone Hospital operate full-service clinics on the respective campuses to provide health related services to uninsured and underinsured who might not otherwise receive care. In FY2011 the clinics served a combined 9,000 patient visitors at a cost of almost $3.2 million. The system partnered with the local school systems to provide free health and safety education to nearly 50,000 area elementary students and approximately 8,000 adolescent students. In partnership with Cobb County law enforcement and YWCA, Wellstar started a program called Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) for confidential and secure treatment of sexual assault victims. Approximately 100 patients were treated in the program. Cobb Hospital continued to serve as a Partner in Education site for mentoring South Cobb High School students with interest in pursuing healthcare professions. Thirty students participate in the program each year. Wellstar and the Cobb County Board of Education have partnered to provide student athletes with concussion testing in all sports related programs offered in the schools. This testing is provided free of charge to the student athletes as a proactive and preventive measure before participation is granted. Wellstar and Cobb Hospital again received the designation as a "Company that Cares" for its caring about patients, communities and team members. It is one of only seven health care systems and the only local system to achieve that distinction. Wellstar Health System and affiliates remained strong financially with a 6.0% operating margin. The system also initiated an internal program to identify costs savings and revenue enhancements which produced an additional $75 million in company-wide savings and efficiencies and continues to identify additional costs savings program each year. These initiatives made it possible to continue to reinvest funds into improvement and purchase of state of the art facilities and equipment ($55 million was spent in FY11 for total system-wide capital expenditures). Wellstar made an important investment in the area of clinical excellence by adding additional physicians and practitioners to the system and a total of 66 new physicians to the Wellstar Medical Group. Additional cardiology doctors have helped to make Wellstar one of the leading cardiac health systems in Georgia. Cobb Hospital and other Wellstar facilities continued to invest in state of the art cancer treatment with its Wellstar Cancer Program.

Identifier	Return Reference	Explanation
Uncertain Tax Position	SCHEDULE D PART X Line 2	The following is a footnote from the combined financial statements of Wellstar Health System, Inc. and Affiliates related to the reporting of the organization's liability for uncertain tax positions under FIN 48. "Wellstar and all but one of its affiliates have been recognized as exempt from Federal income tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 501 (a) as organizations described in Section 501 (c) (3) and therefore, related income is generally not subject to Federal or state income tax. Community Assurance Corportion is a controlled foreign corporation not subject to Federal tax. Wellstar applies FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, which addresses accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions. It also provides guidance on when tax positions are recognized in an entity's financial statements and how the values of these positions are determined. There is no impact on Wellstar's combined financial statements as a result of the application of ASC 740."

Identifier	ReturnReference	Explanation
Publication of Community Benefit Report	Sch H Part I Line 6a	Cobb Hospital, Inc. is an affiliate of Wellstar Health System, Inc. which on an annual basis issues a community benefit report. This report is subsequently distributed in and around the five county service area of the health system.
Cost to Charge Ratio	Sch H Part I Line 7	For purposes of the IRS Form 990 Schedule H, Wellstar Health System and Affiliates (including Cobb Hospital) have estimated the current year cost to charge ratio for each hospital as it is reported in the annual community benefit report and as it will be reported in the state's Annual Hospital Financial Survey.
Footnote on Bad Debt and Rationale for Community Benefit	Sch H Part III Line 4	The following footnote is detailed in the Wellstar Health System, Inc. and Affiliates Financial Statements related to bad debt or uncollectible accounts: "During 2011, Wellstar adopted the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Update (2011-07), Healthcare Entities (Topic 954). ASU 2011-07 requires the reclassification of the provision for uncollectible accounts associated with patient service revenue from an operating expense to a deduction from patient service revenue (net of contractual allowances and discounts)." " Wellstar recognizes patient service revenue associated with services provided to patients with third-party payor coverage on the basis of contractual rates for the services rendered. For uninsured patients that do not qualify for community financial aid, Wellstar recognizes revenue on the basis of its discounted rates for services provided. On the basis of historical experience, a significant portion of Wellstar's uninsured patients are unable or unwilling to pay for the services provided. Thus, Wellstar records a significant provision for uncollectible accounts related to uninsured patients in the period the services are provided." Subsequent to the end of the reporting period a propensity to pay review of patient accounts often results in prior year bad debt accounts which are deemed eligible for the organization's financial assistance policy. Those bad debt accounts are reclassified as charity and thus our rationale for including in community benefit.
Medicare Shortfalls	Schedule H Part III Line 8	Cobb Hospital is a provider of inpatient and outpatient services to Medicare program beneficiaries at determined rates. Without the participation in the Medicare program these patients may not have had convenient access to those services. The Medicare shortfall on line 7 represents the uncompensated difference between the expected reimbursement and the Medicare charges for those services stated at cost. We determine a cost to charge ratio for Medicare patients as part of the annual filing of the Medicare cost report.
Collection Practices	Schedule H Part III Sec C Line 9b	The policy written for collection practices that applies to all Wellstar Health System entities incorporates guidelines for personnel in the admissions and patient access areas to be trained in identifying patients that might qualify for financial assistance. It is also the policy of all Wellstar facilities to have at least one employee or contractor available at all times, especially in the hospitals with emergency rooms, who can provide assistance with the paperwork necessary to help patients who would qualify for governmental and other assistance programs.
Hospital Description	Schedule H Part V	Cobb Hospital is a general acute care hospital providing a full range of services, is licensed to operate 382 beds, and is presently staffed to operate 370 beds. It is located on an approximately 55-acre campus in Austell, Georgia and is housed within a complex of connected buildings containing a total square footage in excess of 450,000 square feet. The original hospital was constructed in 1968 and major structural additions have been made in several phases since that time. The hospital provides medical, surgical, obstetrical, pediatric, rehabilitative, and psychiatric inpatient care and outpatient care, including emergency services. The Cobb Hospital Women's Center operates 20 labor and delivery rooms, 40 post partum rooms, 6 antipartum rooms and a resource center and classrooms offering educational opportunities.
Needs Assessment	Schedule H Part VI Line 2	Wellstar Health System (and affiliates) is a key stakeholder in MAPP, Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships. MAPP, developed by the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) in collaboration with the CDC, provides a structured guidance on creating and implementing a community-wide strategic planning process focused on improving the health and safety of our population. Through MAPP, a broad collection of community partners and residents come together to identify and prioritize health and safety issues and to identify resources for addressing them. The process results in an actionable community health improvement plan (CHIP) for measurable improvements in the community's health and quality of life as well as a scorecard for implementation and evaluation. The resulting community plan does not focus on one agency or community health challenge; rather, MAPP provides a long-term strategy that addresses the multiple factors that affect health in the community. Community involvement throughout the creation and the implementation of a health improvement plan results in creative solutions to community health problems with an improved focus on priorities, reduced duplication of services, increased collaboration on projects and activities, and increased capacity to garner additional resources. Moreover, continous community involvement leads to community ownership of the process. Community ownership, in turn, increases the credibility and sustainability of the health improvement efforts.
Patient Education of Eligibility for Assistance	Sch H Part VI Line 3	Cobb Hospital provides its patients with hospital personnel or contracted personnel who are trained in all aspects of governmental programs, payments plans, charity discounts, and other financial assistance offered to assist them in their hospital bills. If the patient is eligible for federal or state assistance programs, a staff member is knowledgeable in the steps necessary to qualify those individuals. If a patient is indigent or charity eligible they will be offered assistance through the hospital's charity and indigent care policy including the state's indigent care trust fund. If the patient has no other insurance and fails to qualify for indigent care assistance, the financial counselor can then offer the patient an opportunity to accept a payment plan with discounted payment options based on their ability to pay immediately or over time. All patient are afforded these opportunities.
Community Information	Sch H Part VI Line 4	Cobb Hospital is one of five hospitals that are affiliated with the parent corporation, Wellstar Health System. The primary service area of the system is located in the Northwest Georgia area and receives the majority of its patients from one of five counties (Cherokee, Cobb, Douglas, Bartow and Paulding). Generally about 85% to 90% of the patient volume comes from this service area although other health systems have a presence in the area as well. Demographically the region is one of the fastest growing in the state as well as the country and the expansion of the services for the patient population reflects a desire to offer healthcare "closer to home" since Wellstar is considered a part of a larger metropolitan Atlanta market. Economically the region is strong in per capita income but given recent trends a rise in the uninsured and indigent population has occured.
Affiliated Health System Role	Schedule H Part VI Line 7	As stated in the Wellstar Health System, Inc and Affiliates audited financial statments for the period ended June 30, 2011, Cobb Hospital (an affiliate of Wellstar Health System, Inc.) operates as a charitable organization consistent with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Sect 501 (c) (3) and the "community benefit standard" of IRS Ruling 69-545. In this regard the governing body of the organization and/or its parent is composed of prominent citizens in the community, medical staff privileges in the hospital are available to all qualifed physicians in the area consistent with the size and nature of the facility; the hospital operates a full-time emergency room open to all regardless of ability to pay; and the hospital provides care to the needy members of the community consistent with its charity care policy. The hospital's excess funds are genrally applied to expansion and replacement of existing facilities and equipment, amortization of indebtedness, improvement fo patient care, community benefit activities, and charity care. Cobb Hospital committed approximately $21.2 million in capital expenditures for the year to meet those needs.

990 T Explanation of Filing	Form 990 Part V Line 3	Cobb Hospital generated no unrelated business income for the reporting period. As a result the attached 990T shows no activity. If subsequent review of the books reveals any unreported UBI we will file an amended return for the tax period ended June 30, 2011.
Form 990 Copy to Board of Directors	Form 990 Part VI Line 11A	Internal staff prepare the organization's Form 990. Before filing the return with the Internal Revenue Service an external accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers, reviews and sign-offs on the completed return. The current year Form 990 is then reviewed by the Finance Committee along with a question and answer session. A motion is then made by the Finance committee to approve the returns and present to the full board copies of the forms in an electronic (pdf. format) version as well as a hard copy . The organization's CFO or designee subsequently signs the return for either manual or electronic filing by the appropriate due date.
Conflict of Interest Policy	Form 990 Part VI Section B Line 12 a-c	Our conflict of interest policy requires all covered persons to annually review the policy and then complete, sign and return the Conflicts of Interest Survey and Attestation to the Compliance Office. The policy requires an on-going disclosure obligation in the event a conflict arises during the year. The following is our process to regularly and consistently monitor and enforce this policy: Compliance identifies all covered persons who must complete the survey and attestation. Compliance verifies that the survey and attestation is distributed to these persons. Compliance verifies that these persons return a fully completed and signed survey and attestation. Compliance reviews each completed and signed survey and attestation to identify all conflicts listed in the document. All conflicts, potential conflicts and incidences of non-compliance are referred to the Chief Compliance Officer. The CCO takes appropriate action to completely resolve all identified conflicts and incidences of non-compliance.
Process for determining Exec Compensation	Form 990 Part VI Section B Line 15A & B	Wellstar engages the Hay Group to work with the governing board to review and recommend executive compensation. The executive compensation process at Wellstar is overseen by a committee of independent trustees, which follows a board-approved executive compensation philosophy. The current members of the Wellstar committee are: Pete Wood Janie Maddox Al Separk Board Chairman--Ex Officio CEO--Ex Officio In committtee discussions about the compensation for the Chief Executive Officer, the acting CEO will recuse himself from that process but is a non-voting committee member for discussions on all other officers. The executive compensation philosophy empowers the committee to oversee the executive compensation process and administer the executive compensation program on behalf of the full board of trustee of Wellstar; provided, however, the full Board of Trustees evaluates and approves the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer. The philosophy requires annual disclosure of the committee's actions and decisions to the full board, which it has done. The committee is guided by the board-approved philosophy. Overall, the philosophy is intended to reward for organizational and individual performance. When performance is at a predetermined targeted level, the compensation is intended to be at or around the median of compensation paid to similar positions at similar organizations (the "market"). Wellstar's executive compensation philosophy defines the market as being comprised of comparable not-for-profit health care delivery systems, i.e., not-for-profit organizations similar in complexity and scale to Wellstar. To assist the committee in fulfilling its duties, the committee engaged the Hay Group to provide market compensation data to compare to the Wellstar positions whose compensation the committee oversees. The committee uses this data to provide context when making decisions in administering the compensation program. Accurate minutes of the committee's discussion and decisions are recorded during each committee meeting, and reviewed and approved at the following committee meeting.
DISCLOSURE OF FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS	Form 990 Part VI Section C Line 19	The organization and its subsidiaries are subject to the Open Records Law in the State of Georgia. Therefore, by law, citizens are permitted to inspect and copy its governing documents, policies and financial statements as may be requested from time to time. Additionally, the organization's Form 990 is made readily available on the Guidestar website. Periodically, the organization publishes its financial performance in the local newspaper for citizens to review, and it also publishes a community benefit report once a year for distribution to the public.
Compensation	Form 990 Part V Line 2	All compensation amounts reported on Form 990 Part V, Part VII, and Part IX as well as Schedule J represent compensation provided to individuals that provide services to the organization. Likewise, the number of employees reported on Form 990 represent the number of individuals providing services to the organization. All Federal employment tax responsibilities for these individuals (including Federal Employment Tax reporting responsibilities) are handled by Wellstar Health System, Inc (EIN 58-1649541).
Bylaw Changes	Form 990 Part VI Line 4	In November 2010 the bylaws of Wellstar Health System, Inc. were amended to state that benefits would be provided for trustees upon their retirement from the Board.
Organizational Structure	Form 990 Part VI Line 6 & 7	As per the articles of Incorporation, the sole member of the organization is Wellstar Health System, Inc., a GA nonprofit corporation. As sole member, Wellstar Health System holds certain powers of election and approval in connection with the governing body of the organization. These powers are presented in detail in the company's governing documents which the company makes available to the public upon request.
Officer's Hours	Form 990 General Statement	The officers devote their time to all of the organizations within Wellstar Health System that are listed in Schedule R, Part II. As such, the total hours worked by the officers across all of the organizations exceeds 40 hours per week.
AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	Form 990 Part IV Line 12 and Part XI	WellStar Health System, Inc. is audited on an annual basis by an outside auditing firm, KPMG, and as part of that audit a consolidated financial statement is issued for all of WellStar Health System, Inc and its Affiliates.
