PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN F PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN F TOTAL BAD DEBT EXPENSE = $14,709,865
PART I, LINE 7 PART I, LINE 7 COST TO RATIO PERCENTAGE WAS USED AS THE COSTING METHODOLOGY. WORKSHEET #2 WAS USED TO DERIVE THE PERCENTAGE.
PART III, LINE 4 PART III, LINE 4 BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS GROSSED UP TO GROSS CHARGES AND THEN THE COST TO RATIO PERCENTAGE DERIVED FROM WORKSHEET #2 WAS USED TO CALCULATE THE VALUE AT COST. SELF PAY ACCOUNTS, ONCE DETERMINED A LACK OF INSUFFICIENCY OF INSURANCE, AND ONCE THE PATIENT HAS RECEIVED GOVERNMENT PAYOR DENIAL, THE ACCOUNTS ARE ADJUSTED DOWN TO THE HIGHEST VOLUME COMMERCIAL PAYOR RATE. AFTER THE ACCOUNT IS DEEMED UNCOLLECTIBLE, THE ACCOUNT IS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT EXPENSE AT ADJUSTED CHARGES LESS ANY PAYMENTS MADE ON THE ACCOUNT. 50% OF THESE PATIENTS WOULD MOST LIKELY QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE IF THEY WERE COOPERATIVE IN FILING THE PAPERWORK, ASSOCIATED WITH GOVERMENT ASSISTANCE. FOOTNOTE ON AUDITED FINANCIALS - FEDERAL AND STATE LAW REQUIRES THE HOSPITALS TO PROVIDE EMERGENCY SERVICES REGARDLESS OF A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY. UNINSURED PATIENTS SEEN IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, INCLUDING PATIENTS SUBSEQUENTLY ADMITTED FOR INPATIENT SERVICES, OFTEN DO NOT PROVIDE INFORMATION NECESSARY TO ALLOW THE HOSPITAL TO QUALIFY SUCH PATIENTS FOR CHARITY CARE. UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS DUE FROM SUCH UNINSURED PATIENTS REPRESENT THE SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS REFLECTED IN THE ACCOMPANYING STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS.
PART III, LINE 8 PART III, LINE 8 COST TO CHARGE RATIO - USED WORKSHEET #2
PART III, LINE 9B PART III, LINE 9B HEALTH QUEST MAY CHOOSE TO SEND ANY DELIQUENT ACCOUNT TO A COLLECTION AGENCY, HOWEVER, BEFORE REFERRING A DELIQUENT ACCOUNT TO A COLLECTION AGENCY, HEALTH QUEST WILL REVIEW THE ACCOUNT TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE PATIENT HAS APPLIED FOR A DISCOUNT UNDER THE CHARITY CARE POLICY AND THE STATUS OF SUCH APPLICATION. IF THE PATIENT HAS APPLIED FOR A DISCOUNT, THE ACCOUNT MAY NOT BE REFERRED TO A COLLECTION AGENCY UNTIL A FINAL DETERMINATION OF SUCH APPLICATION IS MADE AND IF ANY APPEAL OF SUCH DETERMINATION IS PROVIDED FOR IN THE CHARITY CARE POLICY, A FINAL DETERMINATION HAS BEEN MADE WITH RESPECT TO SUCH APPEAL. PATIENTS MAY STILL APPLY FOR A DISCOUNT UNDER THE CHARITY CARE POLICY EVEN AFTER THE ACCOUNT HAS BEEN SENT TO A COLLECTION AGENCY.

PART VI, LINE 2 PART VI, LINE 2 NEEDS ASSESSMENT IN THE HUDSON VALLEY, THE LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS FORMED A COALITION WHICH SPEARHEADED THE COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENTS.

HEALTH QUEST WILL BE FOCUSED ON THE FOLLOWING - ACCESS TO QUALITY HEALTH CARE, CHRONIC DISEASE, HEALTHY MOTHERS, HELATHY BABIES, HEALTHY CHILDREN, MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE, AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND NUTRITION. VASSAR BROTHERS MEDICAL CENTER IS WORKING TO: A. INCREASE EARLY ENTRY INTO PRENATAL CARE BY IMPLEMENTING A "GO BEFORE YOU SHOW" CAMPAIGN. WE HAVE CREATED A PRENATAL TASK FORCE WITH MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORING COUNTIES AND ARE ADAPTING ROCKLAND COUNTY'S SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM TO FIT DUTCHESS COUNTY'S NEEDS. WE EXPECT THE PROGRAM TO GO LIVE IN NOVEMBER 2012. B. IMPROVE SELF-MANAGEMENT OF DIABETES BY IMPLEMENTING A PATIENT NAVIGATOR. THIS PROGRAM IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT. C. IMPROVE ACCESS TO CARE BY IMPLEMENTING AN ADVANCE CARE PLANNING PROGRAM. ACP FACILITATORS ARE TRAINED FROM BOTH WITHIN AND WITHOUT THE HOSPITAL. SEVERAL REQUESTS FOR SERVICES HAVE BEEN RECEIVED BASED ON NEWSPAPER ARTICLES AND COMMUNITY EDUCATION EVENTS. WE HAVE GREAT EXPECTATIONS FOR THIS PROGRAM AND WILL CONTINUE TO GROW AND PROMOTE IT. ADDITIONALLY, HEALTH QUEST PROVIDED SEVERAL THOUSAND TICK REMOVAL KITS TO THE DUTCHESS COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AFTER THEY LOST THEIR FUNDING STREAM. ALL HQ HOSPITALS CONDUCT SCREENINGS, LECTURES AND CLASSES IN ADDITION TO WHAT IS LISTED ABOVE. UNDER THE NEW GOVERNANCE MODEL, THE HOSPITAL BOARDS WILL FOCUS ON COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT, PRIORITIZATION AND PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT.

COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN-MISSION STATEMENT FORM 990 PART III LINE 1 The mission of Vassar Brothers Medical Center is to be the preeminent provider of health care in the Hudson Valley. Vassar Brothers Medical Center will strive to provide the highest quality health care services to anyone who needs our care and to continually seek to improve our services. Vassar Brothers Medical Center will expand and develop primary and tertiary services based on the needs of our community with a focus on Cardiology, Oncology, Women and Children and Surgical Services. Planning and program development will be systematic, will utilize a multi-disciplinary approach and rely on evidence-based medicine. Financial security is a fundamental requisite to the longer term viability of the Hospital. The organization must have sufficient financial resources to achieve and maintain high quality standards, replace assets, keep pace with technological advances, provide start-up capital for new programs, expand existing programs and underwrite bad debt and charity care. Fulfillment of this vision statement is dependent on the continuous improvement in the quality of services provided to patients, physicians and the community based on bringing innovative medical and information technology and continuing medical education to enhance patient care and safety. To that end, Vassar Brothers Medical Center will seek to accomplish the following goals: To attract and retain the highest quality employees, physicians, trustees and volunteers; and to maintain an environment that encourages, supports and rewards safety and excellence in all its various forms. Finally, as a voluntary and charitable organization that serves a vital public need, the Hospital continually strives to maintain the trust, confidence and respect of the people we serve.

HQ amended its bylaws on July 19, 2010 in order to streamline HQ's governance and promote management and operational efficiencies. In addition, bylaw amendments were made by each of HQ's affiliated hospitals (Vassar Brothers Medical Center ("VBMC" - 5/14/2010), Northern Dutchess Hospital ("NDH" - 5/25/2010), and Putnam Hospital Center ("PHC" - 6/30/2010) (collectively referred to as the "Hospitals"). Key Elements of Hospital / HQ Bylaw Changes. The bylaw amendments made several key changes: first, they confirm and enable HQ's existing and available powers under New York law as the sole member and active parent of the Hospitals; second, they focus each Hospital's board on patient safety, quality of care, and community health needs including through the elimination of all but three (3) required Hospital committees (i.e., the (i) Executive, (ii) Quality, Patient Satisfaction and Medical Staff Credentialing and (iii) Community Health Needs Committees); and third, other governance streamlining changes are implemented through the HQ and Hospital Bylaw changes (for example, several HQ committees are combined, many Hospital committees are being eliminated, and HQ's role and power as the sole member and active parent of each Hospital has been confirmed and further enabled).
