Identifier ReturnReference Explanation
Part I line 3c   Rockford Memorial Hospital RMH offers two charity care programs - HUPDA and our traditional charity care program. We will process charity care for whichever provides the highest percentage of discount. These criteria are determined as early as possible, preferably before or at the time of service. HUPDA is the Illinois Hospital Uninsured Patient Discount Act for all uninsured patients. Eligibility consists of being an uninsured Illinois resident, income below 600 of FPG, being
Part I line 3c   continued treated for a medically necessary condition or event, limited to 25 of annual income. Patients submit proof of income including tax returns/pay stubs within 60 days of discharge. Traditional discounts follow our internal traditional charity care program for those who are uninsured or are insured with a patient liability. This income limit is 300 of FPG. Patient must submit proof of income that includes tax returns. Underinsured patients may be eligible for other
Part I line 3c   continued discounts towards the patient liability. There are also potential discounts for Catastrophic Financial Assistance and/or Prompt Pay. Extenuating circumstances may also be taken into account. Our partner hospital VMHS is a for-profit hospital that is part of a larger health organization. Therefore most of the responses concern only the RMH process and procedures.
Part I line 6a   Rockford Health System prepares an annual Hospital Community Benefit Report as required by the State of Illinois. The report includes data for Rockford Memorial Hospital RMH as well as the other four related tax-exempt organizations. The report is distributed within the health system and is also available upon request.
Part I line 6a   continued Our partner hospital VMHS is a for-profit hospital that is part of a larger health organization. As such, they do not prepare a community benefit report. This and most of the following responses concern only the RMH process and procedures.
Part I line 7   The hospital utilized both the Medicare Cost Report CCR cost-to-charge ratio and our cost accounting system to determine the cost of charges, bad debt and charity care expense included in Line 7. The subsidized programs also include the costs based on a calculated CCR from our physician clinic because there are no physicians costs included in the hospital cost accounting analysis. Bad debt and charity at cost have been removed from lines 7e/7f/7g since those costs were previously included.
Part III line 4   Rockford Health System Consolidated Audit reports The Systems policy is to provide medically necessary health care services regardless of the patients ability to pay for such care. RHS maintains records to identify and monitor the charity, uncompensated care and community benefit it provides. These records include the cost for services and supplies furnished under its policies as well as the estimated difference between the cost of the services provided to Medicaid patients and the reimbursement received from the state for this care. The costs of service are estimated using the annual cost-to-charge ratio.
Part III line 4   cont During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the following levels of charity care and community service, including serviced for which the System received no reimbursement or was reimbursed below cost, were provided. Estimated costs and expenses incurred for charity care in 000s 2011 -10,185 2010 - 10,772. Estimated cost over reimbursement for Medicaid patients care 2011 - 9,388 2010 - 4,299. Cost of other Charity Care and Community Benefits 2011 - 25,385 2010 - 21,668.
Part III line 4   cont In addition to the above, the System received no reimbursement or is reimbursed below cost for these services, for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 Estimated cost over reimbursement for Medicare patients care 2011 - 32,608 2010 - 26,273. Estimated costs for bad debt 2011 - 9,029 2010 - 7,847.
Part III line 4   cont Total cost of Charity, Uncompensated Care Other Community Services 2011 - 67,022 2010 - 55,788 community service, research and education 2011 - 5,812 2010 - 6,597. The System actively sponsors community benefits that respond to community needs. These programs focus on the underserved with the intention of improving the overall health of the entire community. Examples of this outreach include mobile clinics, partnering with local schools and employers to provide health
Part III line 4   cont screenings, support and health education providing social services, such as multi-faith ministry, intepreters and support groups providing emergency medical training to other providers across the region and serving as the regions emergency disaster response center. Our 24 hour emergency room, mental health services, and multiple convenient care locations provide for various
Part III line 4   cont and timely health care needs throughout the region. Since bad debt is often difficult to distinguish from charity care due to insufficient data provided by the patient, RMH continues to provide superior care to all patients as a part of its mission and considers the cost of bad debt writeoffs as a substantial benefit to the community.
Part III line 4   continued Van Matre Health South is a partnership 50 owned by Rockford Health System Ventures LLC, a disregarded entity owned 100 by Rockford Memorial Hospital. It is a for-profit organization that does not report any separate footnote regarding charity care or bad debt.
Part III line 8   The data reported for Medicare charges and payments is from the final Management Report produced by the firm that prepared the 2011 Cost Report as submitted to the Fiscal Intermediary in 2012 in compliance with all current regulations. Reported on Line 6 are allowable Medicare Costs provided by the Cost Report. Medicare costs are eliminated from the Subsidized Programs on Part 1 Ln 7g as calculated by our cost accounting analysis.
Part III line 8   continued A combination of cost accounting and the Medicare CCR was used for the computation of subsidized programs. This Section B-Medicare also includes 50 of the Medicare activity from Van Matre Health South VMHS and the corresponding cost based entirely on their Medicare CCR.
Part III line 9b   Rockford Memorial Hospital has a strong commitment to provide quality patient care for all individuals. Our mission is to provide health care to everyone who comes to our door, regardless of their ability to pay. We will submit a claim to all 3rd party payors on behalf of the patient. We help patients apply for all possible insurance or assistance such as crime victims, an automobile accident, workers compensation, Medicaid, COBRA, local assistance and/or hospital financial assistance.
Part III line 9b   cont If they do not qualify for any of these, we can extend payment options such as monthly payments, credit card payments or financial assistance. This is offered to patients who are experiencing legitimate financial hardships and are unable to pay for all or part of the patients medical care. Forgiveness may apply to an amount after applying all payments such as any insurance company, health plan or personal payments, any negotiated discounts or any uninsured discounts.
Part III line 9b   cont If a patient eligible for charity care or partial financial assistance still has a portion of the outstanding balance due, other arrangements are made. RMH accepts a variety of payments and alternative payment plans. Monthly statements are sent as payment reminders for contracted arrangements. In case of default, additional letters and calls are made to bring it to a current status. An account is turned over to a collection agency only after non-payment or no contact in 120 days.
Part III line 9b   Our partner hospital VMHS is a for-profit hospital that is part of a larger health organization. Much of the information that would normally be required for a non-profit is not pertinent. Therefore most of the responses concern only the RMH process and procedures.
Part V   Line 3 - In 2011 The Rockford Health Council produced a regional health needs assessment with extensive interviews and surveys taken during 2010. Contacts included Focus groups, health care providers, Community analysis, Household surveys all of which included local and state government organizations, local businesses, and local educators pre-school through college.
Part V   Line 3 cont The survey was done with funding, cooperation, participation and assistance from all three Rockford hospitals - RMH, SwedishAmerican Hospital and St. Anthonys Medical Center. Survey is available and was promulgated within the community by the Rockford Health Council, survey participants and was made available on several websites.
Part V   Line 19 d - All patient accounts are reviewed for insurance, for other potential providers or government assistance. Then all discounts available to either insured, self-pay, underinsured or uninsured people are applied. After determining the liability for each person at the time of billing,
Part V   Line 19 d cont - other requests for financial assistance are processed, further assistance may be offered and discounts applied, payment plans are set up, and payment agreements reached. Then, after 120 days of no contact or inactivity on a past due balance, the account may be turned over to a collection agency.
Part V   Line 20 - All charges for any service provided by Rockford Memorial Hospital are the very same for every individual, regardless of whether it is for emergent or standard care and regardless of the patients ability to pay. Once a patient is determined to be eligible for financial assistance, the applicable discounts are applied to his/her account.
Part V   Line 21 - The charges billed are always uniform, the amount collected amounts may vary depending on applicable discounts.
Part V   General information regarding Hospital 2 - Our partner hospital VMHS is a for-profit hospital that is part of a larger health organization. Much of the information that would normally be required for a non-profit is not pertinent. Therefore most of the detailed responses concern only the RMH process and procedures.
Part VI Line 2   In 2010 the Rockford Health Council began to gather data from the Northern Illinois region encompassing Winnebago and Boone Counties. RHS support was financial, technical and included significant representation on both the Rockford Health Council Board of Directors and the surveying staff. This collaborative effort, partnering healthcare and education, gathered, analyzed and reported on the health needs of the community. The other two area hospitals both supported and participated
Part VI Line 2   to produce a major effort which was released to the community in July 2011. It revealed trends, changes and unmet needs. The survey is available on the Rockford Health Council website. This assessment serves as a blueprint for future health care initiatives and points toward growth in our region.The priorities identified were used as the framework in the development of the RHS Community Benefit Plan. Each priority has a specific overriding strategy with stated detailed tactics
Part VI Line 2   and measureable objectives. An executive summary detailing the process and findings, the RHS Community Plan document, and a partial inventory detailing many of the significant programs and initiatives that support RHS commitment to improving the overall health and well-being of the community residents were included. In December 2011, the Board of Directors approved the resolution to adopt of the Rockford Health System Community Benefit
Part VI Line 2   Plan and subsequent implementation of its recommendations. RHS is continuing with development and implementation of a comprehensive multifaceted community benefit plan to improve the overall health and well-being of residents in the primary service area.
Part VI Line 3   RMH posts signs in all general registration areas and the emergency department in both Spanish and English to indicate that financial assistance is available for those who qualify. The organizations web site states Patients throughout Rockford Health System are treated regardless of their ability to pay. Click on the entity above to learn more. The RMH link to Financial Assistance and Discount Programs explains the process in this manner Rockford Health System provides health
Part VI Line 3   care regardless of the patients ability to pay for such care. These guidelines are intended to provide a framework to offer assistance to patients and families with legitimate financial hardship, who are unable to pay for all or a portion of their medical care. Covered services are those which are determined medically necessary by a physician. Our Financial Assistance Programs are based on whether you have insurance coverage of any kind or are uninsured.
Part VI Line 4   RMH is located in Rockford, IL Winnebago County with a defined primary service area that includes Winnebago, Boone and Ogle counties. 2010 US Census Bureau data places the population for this service area at approximately 403,000 individuals with close to 3/4 living in Winnebago County approximately 295,000. This represents a drop in population of approximately 6000 individuals from 2009 Census information and 2011 US Census estimates project another decrease to 401,500 residents.
Part VI Line 4   Located in northern Illinois, the primary service area is characterized as largely rural and populated with very small communities with the exception of the neighboring cities of Rockford, Loves Park, and Machesney Park which comprise more than 200,000 individuals. The hospital also serves the secondary service area which includes DeKalb, McHenry, Whiteside, Lee, LaSalle, Stephenson and Rock counties for select tertiary services.
Part VI Line 4   The next largest community is Belvidere, located in Boone County, where the entire county has just over 54,000 residents. More than 86 of hospital inpatients are from the Primary Service Area. As a community that relies heavily on manufacturing companies and small businesses, the area continues to experience difficult economic times. Currently the largest employers include Chrysler Boone County, the Rockford school district, and the three Rockford health care providers.
Part VI Line 4   Median household income in 2010 inflation adjusted dollars per the U.S. Census Bureau in Winnebago County was 43,792 representing a drop from 2009 median income levels of 47,600. In comparison, the states 2009 median household income was approximately 53,974. These disparities are also reflected in unemployment, education and poverty rates. Rockford April 2012 unemployment rate was 10.7 significantly higher than the overall state rate of 8.7.
Part VI Line 4   Most recent census figures estimate 20 of Winnebago County residents attain a bachelors degree while in the state more than 29 attain one. Poverty levels continue to rise with approximately 18 of Winnebago County residents below the poverty level compared to state levels of 13. The 2010 Illinois Kids Count report stated 34 of children in Rockford live at or below the federal poverty rate, placing Rockford with the highest rate in the state of Illinois.
Part VI Line 4   These conditions have resulted in increasing pressures on the community. RMH is located in the older, western portion of the city and serves a significant indigent and elderly population. This is evident when looking at income levels for households located in zip codes in western Rockford where the hospital resides. U.S. Census Bureau profile for individual zip codes lists median household income for west side zip codes as follows 61103 - 37,000 61102 - 34,000 61101 - 31,700. Bad debts from these zip codes accounted for more than7.6 million - 42 of the hospital total.
Part VI Line 4   The geographic disparities are evident, compared to households on the east side of Rockford. The 3 largest east side zip codes have median household incomes of 61107 - 49,000 61108 - 44,700 61114 - 67,000. As the only northern Illinois hospital with Level III neonatal intensive care, comprehensive pediatric and pediatric intensive care, RMH is committed to children
Part VI Line 4   as the main provider of childrens services in the immediate and greater tertiary service area. With 1 in 3 children currently at or below federal poverty levels in the county and the overall economic condition of the community, the hospital has seen increases in uninsured and public aid patients and this trend continues to grow.
Part VI Line 5   Led by Community Boards of Directors, Rockford Memorial Hospital RMH and its affiliates are extremely involved in promoting a healthier community. As one of Rockfords largest employers, the organization takes a leading role in financially supporting not only health-related initiatives, but also community-building activities across the region. It includes providing financial support and talent for economic development and business-related activities, as well as quality of life and
Part VI Line 5   and educational initiatives. Employees participate in community boards and are actively involved in promoting the region and its assets. Whether it was active participation in the Keep Northern Illinois Beautiful Medication Collection to protect the environment, donations for Gigis Playhouse supporting Down syndrome families, or providing an on-going educational program for seniors at a neighborhood independent living facility, the hospitals presence is broad in our community.
Part VI Line 5   In 2011, RMH and its affiliates promoted community health in many ways. One way was to continue to raise the bar on clinical quality across services. In doing so, we also helped to boost the local economy working with over 200 local vendors and supported 76 full-time construction-related jobs in the region. An investment of 15.2 million went toward major improvements at its facilities. The largest construction projects were the 4.5 million development of the
Part VI Line 5   Womens Center, and the 2.9-million MRI Addition at Rockford Memorial Hospital. Other significant projects include the renovations to Interventional Radiology, enhancements to A2 Mother Baby, development of an IV Infusion area within the hospitals Cancer Center, introduction of Advanced Tele-medicine in the ICU.
Part VI Line 5   Our support, including both experienced staff and fiscal resources, led to the community health needs assessment for the Rockford region that was produced by the Rockford Health Council. The priorities include 1 improving access to care, 2 creating partnerships to improve basic needs for residents at the poverty level, 3 improving the health status of the chronically ill and promoting healthy lifestyles, 4 providing comprehensive prenatal and maternal services for excellent outcomes, 5 improving
Part VI Line 5   the behavioral health status of the community, 6 ensuring equitable health services to all, 7 partnering with local law enforcement to reduce crime and violence, and 8 supporting community efforts to improve educational efforts and the labor force. Based upon that assessment, the Board of Directors approved community benefit plan aimed at improving the overall health and well-being of residents in the primary service area. The RMH plan outlines initiatives to address the key priorities identified in the study and was
Part VI Line 5   developed to ensure that RHS along with RMH allocates resources, time and talent in strategies that will directly impact community health needs. Some significant examples of the ways the organization addressed health needs was to enhance access to medical and dental care for uninsured and underinsured adults and children with programs such as the Bridge Clinic a joint partnership with a local church that brought health care to almost 600 people in their neighborhood and through the Ronald McDonald
Part VI Line 5   cont CareMobile that provided medical and dental care for over 500 needy children-representing over 181,000 in free care. In partnership with other community organizations, RMH sought to support families at poverty level in many ways, such as supporting a school breakfast program at Northwest Community Center, where many underpriviledged children are served, adopting a neighborhood school where nearly 90 of the children line in a family at or below the poverty level.
Part VI Line 5   cont RMH and its employees donate both food and dollars to local food banks and support of the United Way as a Golden Campaign Leader. We provided external community grants for like purposes by partnering with A Silver Lining Foundation that provide free mammograms and breast diagnostic services for uninsured women supporting other non-profit, health-related organizations that also address the health needs of chronically-ill patients in our community. Coupled with internal clinical teams
Part VI Line 5   working to manage of diseases such as diabetes and congestive heart failure, RHS professionals serve as educators, not only for patients and their families, but also for caregivers outside our walls. Our clinicians work with local nursing homes to establish appropriate monitoring and treatment once our patients are discharged to other settings. As the regions leading provider of
Part VI Line 5   comprehensive prenatal and maternal services for mothers and infants, RMH caregivers help connect at-risk patients to appropriate services across the community. Besides having a premier maternity service and the only Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in the region, our obstetricians and midwives provide comprehensive care to many low income mothers and help educate teens on pregnancy and on developing parenting skills.
Part VI Line 5   Addressing another reagional health priority, the behavioral health status of the community, RMH has long been a lead provider of inpatient behavioral health services. Through primary care and specialty physician offices, the organization seeks to screen and identify at risk individuals at early stages where intervention and treatment are most successful. In all clinical programs, we seek to ensure that we are providing equitable care for all patients. Recognizing that there is a low
Part VI Line 5   level of awareness of health disparities, RMH participates in community dialogue, supports community initiatives such as the Black Healthcare Coalition, promotes diversity and cultural educational programs internally and is working to identify internal disparities in relation to patient outcomes. To address crime and violence issues in the community, RMH hosts neighborhood meetings on violence in partnership with the Rockford Police Department and Rockford Neighborhood Network.
Part VI Line 5   RMH also represents one of Rockfords largest employers. As such, the organization is committed to supporting community initiatives to prepare an excellent labor force to help in providing continuing health education opportunities for residents, as well as employees. Besides offering a medical science elective course for high school students, the organization participates in
Part VI Line 5   the Northern Illinois Healthcare Collaborative, sends professionals into the schools to volunteer and share knowledge and each year grants nursing scholarships to minorities in our region. Rockford Memorial Hospital continues to use these identified community needs as the blueprint for its community benefit efforts.
Part VI Line 6   All of Rockford Health System RHS entities work closely with the community and Rockford Memorial Hospital RMH to address important health needs of the community. In 2011, volunteers from the Visiting Nurses Association VNA, Rockford Health Physicians RHPH, Rockford Memorial Development Foundation RMDF and RMH donated their time and talents to volunteer on behalf of the community. The affiliates also continued or launched new and innovative programming to reach out into the community
Part VI Line 6   with health education and support. The outreach addresses needs identified in the regional health assessment done by the Rockford Health Council. In 2011, RMH and RHPH began using a new video interpretation system to ensure that all residents receive quality care and understand their diagnosis and course of treatment. Video interpretation was introduced for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, as well as Spanish-speaking patients.
Part VI Line 6   Laptop computers, with video cameras, in both the hospital and physician offices, quickly link skilled interpreters with patients and caregivers. It enables an accurate exchange of information for purposes of diagnosis and treatment. The video system compliments a language line service. Here are just some examples of how specific entities served unique community health needs. In 2011, the VNAs Older Adult Care program reached the 25th anniversary
Part VI Line 6   of operation with its Elder Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation Services. VNA was originally selected as one of the five demonstration sites for the program in 1986. Today, VNAs Elder Abuse program is a program of excellence, one that others in the state benchmark against. Over the course of 25 years, strong relationships have emerged between the elder abuse staff and those within our regional and local law enforcement offices and legal and judicial systems.
Part VI Line 6   These ties lead to the recent development of the Winnebago/Boone County Elder Abuse Fatality Review Team. Purpose of the board is to review questionable deaths of seniors. And, if necessary, recommend a more intense investigation into the cause of death. In 2011, VNAs Older Adult Care also continued its Money Follows the Person Program. The program is designed to help older adults who have lived in the nursing home for more than three months, move out, and back into their communities.
Part VI Line 6   Qualified care coordinators determine eligibility. Mental and physical health are assessed, finances reviewed and existing and potential support systems evaluated. The care coordinator helps develop a plan for living. RHPH, the employed physicians group participates in and supports numerous initiatives on behalf of the communities it serves. These physicians support the hospitals clinical programs, such as the hospitalist program in obstetrics and in pediatrics,
Part VI Line 6   where the majority of patients are indigent as well as providing critical staff for the 24-hr. emergency department. Physicians also actively participate in community outreach efforts. The Bridge Clinic, which serves the immediate medical needs of underinsured adults is staffed by RHPH physicians, the Centering Pregnancy Program, a support group initiated by our midwives for primarily low income pregnant women and significant continuing financial and physician support for a
Part VI Line 6   local child abuse program called MERIT. Throughout the region, the physician group helps to support initiatives with schools and village government services. Our physicians and employees also provided community education. CPR training, financial support and volunteers for a pediatric diabetes camp and an educational partnership with the Golden Apple Foundation are a few of the other initiatives by the medical group.
Part VI Line 6   In 2011, the external grants program of the RMDF provided nearly 100,000 in support to other community not-for-profits. Among the organizations, programs and services supported by those grants were RAMP a non-profit, non-residential Center for Independent Living that partners and empowers people with disabilities Remedies, a non-profit organization assisting those fleeing violent relationships a parent academy at a local school serving low income children
Part VI Line 6   perinatal bereavement services a summer camp for children with Muscular Dystrophy and an exercise program through the YMCA to name a few. The Foundation also supported the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile and provided automatic external defibrillators AED to organizations that serve a wide variety of citizens.
