Description of Intended Use of Endowment Funds: Part V, Line 4: The endowment funds are used for continuing education, scholarships, research, clinical equipment, and nursing awards.
Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48: Part X: In 2008, the Organization adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 establishes that the financial statement effects of a tax position taken or expected to be taken are to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon IRS examination. FIN 48 became effective for fiscal year 2008 for the Organization. The Organization has analyzed tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years for the taxable entities and has determined that as of June 30, 2011, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition in the financial statements. The Organization has analyzed specific criteria regarding the exempt 501(c) 3 status for the tax exempt entities and has determined that as of June 30, 2011 the Organization is compliant with the qualifications for exemption from Federal income tax.

Identifier ReturnReference Explanation
    Part I, Line 6a: The Community Benefit Report is issued by Lehigh Valley Health Network - EIN 22-2458317, the parent company of Lehigh Valley Hospital.
    Part I, Line 7: The costing methodology is cost to charge ratio for programs with gross charges and direct costs for programs without gross charges.
    Part I, Line 7g: CLINICS SUBSIDY The clinics subsidy of $12,425,926 is the difference between clinic payments and clinic costs. The clinics subsidy includes the operations of the Medical and Surgical Clinics, Outpatient Pediatrics, the Dental Clinic, the Center for Women's Medicine, the Family Health Center, Geriatrics, Maternal Fetal Medicine, and the Mental Health Clinic.TRANSITIONAL LIVING CENTERSLehigh Valley Health Network administers two Residential Aftercare Programs as a contracted provider for the Lehigh County Department of Human Services. These programs include the Transitional Living Center-Full Care and the Transitional Living Center-Moderate Care. Although the programs receive revenue from clients and reimbursements from Lehigh County, these funds do not fully reimburse program operating expenditures. In FY'11, program operating expenditures exceeded program revenues and reimbursements by $272,168. The Transitional Living Centers serve residents of Lehigh County age 18 and over who have been treated for mental illness and would benefit from a structured residential program. The Full Care site is supervised 24 hours per day and teaches the activities of daily living as designated by the Pa. Department of Welfare to those residents who demonstrate the need for ongoing intensified supervision due to their mental illness. The Moderate Care site is supervised 10 hours per day and is designed to teach activities of daily living to those individuals who demonstrate the need for community reentry support in a less-intensified structure.AIDS ACTIVITIES OFFICEEstablished in 1989, Lehigh Valley Hospital's AIDS Activities Office (AAO) provides clinical and social services to children, adolescents and adults infected and affected by HIV/AIDS and HCV (hepatitis C). In FY'11, the AIDS Activities Office's active patients received one or more of the following services:1. HIV testing and counseling (A free service open to the public as a state-designated Department of Health lab site).2. Prevention counseling.3. Initial and ongoing medical care (including laboratory evaluation, coordination and referral to diagnostic and specialty service, and pharmaceutical treatment regimens) provided by a physician board-certified in infectious diseases and specializing in HIV care.4. Coordination and monitoring of inpatient and outpatient clinical therapies, and education provided by registered nurses certified in AIDS care.5. Nutritional assessments and interventions.6. Adherence counseling.7. Availability of local clinical trials and referral to regional trials.8. Case management to insure coverage of basic and social service needs, including housing, employment, outpatient substance abuse treatment, mental health counseling, etc., and providing linkages to care and coordination of specialty treatments.9. HIV outreach, prevention education, and testing in community settings (was previously in-house only).10. Hepatitis C treatment provided by a physician board-certified in internal medicine and specializing in HCV care.11. Hepatitis C education by nurses specially educated in the disease as well as prevention and adherence counseling.12. Support groups for HIV and HCV.13. Mental health counseling by a licensed clinical social worker specializing in people living with HIV and HCV.14. The AAO Food Bank, supported by private donations.15. HepA, HepB, & Hep A/B vaccines provided by the PA DOH High Risk Immunization program.Funded originally by the Dorothy Rider Pool Health Care Trust and Lehigh Valley Hospital (LVH), the AIDS Activities Office is currently primarily supported by LVH, Early Intervention Funding (Title III) from the Ryan White Care Act (Human Resources and Services Administration) and AIDSNET (Ryan White Title II funding) and the PA Department of Health. LVH's contribution to the operations of the AIDS Activities Office in FY'11 was $333,634, net of payments.FREE ORAL TRAUMA SURGERY CAREIn FY 11, Lehigh Valley Hospital paid $340,171 to private oral surgery practices to provide oral trauma surgery care to hospital patients.AMBULANCE TRANSPORT COSTSLehigh Valley Hospital incurred total ambulance costs of $130,271 to transport patients to other non-LVHN facilities.PHARMACEUTICALS FOR DISCHARGED PATIENTSPharmaceuticals appropriate to the course of treatment are often provided at no charge to indigent patients upon discharge. The cost of these medications in FY'11 was $342,305.
    Part I, L7 Col(f): The costing methodology for bad debt expense is the Medicare cost to charge ratio. The ratio of uninsured charges written off as charity was applied to total charges written off as bad debt to estimate the portion of bad debt that is attributed to patients under the hospital charity policy.
    Part II: Community Building Activities are conducted on behalf of Lehigh Valley Health Network, which is the governing entity for Lehigh Valley Hospital and Lehigh Valley Hospital - Muhlenberg. Our Community Partners include:Central School-Line 7More than 800 students at Central School in the Allentown School District, Allentown, Pa., and their families benefit from care provided by our pediatric health center. A health care team provides care that includes basic health care, asthma management, immunizations, counseling and community outreach. We know poor health robs children of their ability to be good students. For 15 years, this project has worked to promote academic success at this inner city elementary school. Communities in Schools of the Lehigh Valley-Line 3We are a longtime partner of Communities in Schools of the Lehigh Valley, a program for adolescents at risk for dropping out of school. About 200 Allentown-area high school students attend the program at Lehigh Valley Hospital-17th Street, Allentown, Pa. In addition to classroom instruction, they get mentoring, tutoring and training in job readiness and life skills,in short, a great start for a healthy and successful future. Da Vinci Science Center-Line 9We recognize science isn't confined to test tubes. So our clinicians partner with the Da Vinci Discovery Center of Science and Technology in Allentown, Pa., to develop interactive displays that introduce young minds to health care. The center has approximately 100,000 visitors each year. The Pennsylvania Regional Community Policing Institute - Line 6We partner with The Pennsylvania Regional Community Policing Institute to help keep our community safe. We recognize medical health is directly related to the well-being of a community, and it takes cooperation from all levels of government to improve quality of life in our community. For instance, the institute provides homeland security, crime prevention, and emergency preparedness training to community members, police offers and other emergency responders. Sixth Street Shelter-Line 7The Sixth Street Shelter in Allentown provides free, basic care to uninsured adults. We offer physicals for employment, driver's licenses and school applications. If you need more specialized care, you will be referred to The Caring Place at 933 Hamilton St., Allentown, or to the Lehigh Valley Physician's Practice at Lehigh Valley Hospital-17th street.The Caring Place Family Health Program at 933 Hamilton St., Allentown, Pa., offers free, basic medical care to you and your family, including immunizations and screenings for sexually transmitted diseases and HIV. Gynecological exams and cervical cancer screenings are available to women. As a patient, you'll learn how to care for your own health, and receive support through counseling and support groups.Safety Town - Line 6This portable, interactive "town" is designed to teach children (kindergarten through second grade) how to be safe in their everyday lives. The town depicts how a child travels through a normal day, including home, school, park and neighborhood, while discussing dangers they may encounter along the way. It can be used at school, community and church events. GlitterBug - Line 9This interactive program teaches children how to effectively wash their hands to prevent the spread of germs. Children take part in an experiment with "magic potion lotion." It's made of pretend germs, and when applied to hands, is made visible by a black light. After washing their hands, children see how many germs are removed. Miles of Smiles - Line 7This mobile van helps deliver care to children who need dental care There are an estimated 11,000 children in Allentown, Pa., alone who need dental care but can't afford a trip to the dentist. So Lehigh Valley Health Network, Capital Blue Cross and more than 40 donors joined forces and brought the dentist to them. Miles of Smiles-a dental office on wheels-is a mobile clinic with two treatment rooms. A dentist and dental hygienist provide teeth cleanings, fluoride treatments, X-rays, cavity treatments, simple extractions, and education on proper brushing, flossing and healthy eating. An estimated 3,000 community members-primarily children-will receive dental care with Miles of Smiles annually. The mobile clinic is currently serving children at four Allentown elementary schools, The Caring Place Youth Development Center, Casa Guadalupe and the Sixth Street Shelter.Iron Pigs Partnership - Line 7Kids Run the Bases At every Sunday home game, we sponsor "Kids Run the Bases." During these games, we provide health tips via public address announcements. After the game, children take the field to feel the glory of what it's like to be in the game. We give each child a gift for participating.Education Days Nearly 6,000 students from regional schools come to Coca-Cola Park for Education Days. These game-day events are part of the IronPigs' Swine Smarts program, which helps teachers incorporate elements of baseball into a lesson (like calculating a "batting" average). We add health topics to the curriculum (like the importance of wearing sunscreen and a helmet). We are at the games stressing the fundamentals: physical activity and proper nutrition. Health Fair NightThe interactive health activities we place throughout the concourse during Health Fair Night are a hit. Booths contain information about sleep education, diabetes, proper hand washing, car seat safety and more. There is information and activities for the whole family. Via Partnership - Line 3Through an annual marathon, we partner with Via to support its services for children and adults with disabilities. Each year we partner with Via of the Lehigh Valley to promote healthy living through the Lehigh Valley Health Network Marathon for Via. Via of the Lehigh Valley is a non-profit human service agency that provides services for children and adults with disabilities like autism, cerebral palsy and Down syndrome.Many community members, including health network employees, benefit from Via's services. We share Via's mission to care for its community and value our partnership of hosting events like the marathon. Community members can run in the marathon (as individuals or on a relay team), half-marathon, walk in a 5K (3.1 miles) or volunteer at the event each September.
    Part III, Line 4: BAD DEBTS-In instances where the Organization believes a patient has the ability to pay for services and, after appropriate collection effort, payment is not made, the amount of services not paid is written-off, at charges, as bad debts. Amounts recorded as bad debts expense do not include charity. The amount of bad debts expense for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, at charges, was $56,427,000 and $61,794,000 respectively, and is reported as Bad debts expense on the Combined Statements of Operations.
    Part III, Line 8: The source of the Medicare allowable costs relating to revenue received from Medicare is the FY '11 Medicare Cost Report.
    Part III, Line 9b: Financial Counseling staff will determine whether patients meet eligibility criteria for financial assistance. Accounts that do not meet the eligiblilty requirements will be referred to the internal collection unit and subsequently transferred to bad debt status if the accounts remain unpaid.When the hospital determines that a Medicare patient is either financially or medically indigent and that he is unable to pay his patient liability, the hospital waives its standard collection procedures, deems the account to be uncollectible, and immediately transfer the unpaid balance to bad debt status.
    Part VI, Line 2: Community Needs Assessments are conducted on behalf of the Lehigh Valley Health Network, which is the governing entity for Lehigh Valley Hospital and Lehigh Valley Hospital - Muhlenberg. LVHN has developed a collaborative with the regional hospitals to plan for our community needs assessment. The group has met several times and has drafted an assessment plan.
    Part VI, Line 3: Consistent with the mission and values of Lehigh Valley Health Network, it is the policy to provide medical care to all individuals without regard to their ability to pay for services. The Charity Care Policy which incorporates the LHVN Reduced Cost of Care program applies to uninsured and under-insured individuals who participate in the process to evaluate their ability to pay for LVHN services.Patients are identified by LVHN registration, Benefits and Verification, Customer Service, and Financial Counselors as being in financial need. The Financial Counselors help patients complete the application for Reduced Cost of Care. LVHN follows the Federal Poverty Guidelines to evaluate eligibility. Patients whose family income falls bellow 200% of the Federal Poverty guideline will have their entire balance forgiven for their qualifying services at a participating LVHN provider. Patients with a family income below 400% of the Federal Poverty guidelines will have a portion of their balance forgiven for qualifying services at a participating LVHN provider. Patients are evaluated for no cost or reduced premium insurance plans. The LVHN Financial Counselors will offer information to patients who are interested in seeing if they qualify for these programs offered by commercial insurance companies.Patients often express financial concern or need by contacting the LVHN Customer Service departments. The Customer Service representatives explain the programs available; Reduced Cost of Care, Medical Assistance, and a Reduced Patient responsibility for Self Pay patients. Patients will be referred to the Financial Counselors who work with patients to apply for Pennsylvania Medical Assistance. The Financial Counselors are located onsite. The PATHS representatives visit patients in their inpatient rooms, in the Cancer Center, and in the Emergency Department. In addition, LVHN advertises Financial Assistance in the local newspaper, on our public website and on the statements sent to our patients.
    Part VI, Line 4: Lehigh Valley Hospital, Inc. (LVH) is a Pennsylvania not-for-profit membership corporation exempt from federal income taxes as a corporation described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
