ELIGIBILITY FOR DISCOUNTED CARE SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 3C THE INCOME BASED CRITERIA USED TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY IS PER NEW JERSEY ADMINISTRATIVE CODE 10:52 SUB CHAPTERS 11, 12 AND 13, AND BASED UPON THE 2011 POVERTY GUIDELINES (DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SENIOR SERVICES). FPG ARE INCLUDED IN THE CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY AND DISCOUNTED CARE.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 6A NOT APPLICABLE.
SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 7G NO COSTS RELATING TO SUBSIDIZED HEALTHCARE SERVICES ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO ANY PHYSICIAN CLINICS.
PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 7 COLUMN (F) THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $20,018,884.
CHARITY CARE AND CERTAIN OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT COST SCHEDULE H, PART I, QUESTION 7 WORKSHEET 2 WAS USED FOR THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO.
COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES SCHEDULE H, PART II COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN BY THIS ORGANIZATION IMPROVE THE MEDICAL AND SOCIOECONOMIC WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITIES IN OUR CARE. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH SERVICE ON STATE AND REGIONAL ADVOCACY COMMITTEES AND BOARDS, VOLUNTEERISM WITH LOCAL COMMUNITY-BASED NON-PROFIT ADVOCACY GROUPS, AND PARTICIPATION IN CONFERENCES AND OTHER EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES TO PROMOTE UNDERSTANDING OF THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH CONCERNS. THIS ORGANIZATION PROVIDES EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS, CONDUCTS COMMUNITY HEALTH FAIRS AND HOLDS HEALTH EDUCATION SEMINARS AND OUTREACH SESSIONS FOR ITS PATIENTS AND FOR COMMUNITY PROVIDERS. PRESENTATIONS ARE PROVIDED BY PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND OTHER HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS.
BAD DEBT EXPENSE SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A; QUESTION 4 BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED USING THE PROVIDERS' BAD DEBT EXPENSE FROM ITS AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. RARITAN BAY HEALTH SERVICES CORPORATION AND AFFILIATES ("SYSTEM"), INCLUDING ITS HOSPITALS AND SUBSIDIARIES, PREPARE AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE SYSTEM'S ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS (BAD DEBT EXPENSE) METHODOLOGY AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED ACROSS ALL HOSPITAL AFFILIATES. THE ATTACHED TEXT WAS OBTAINED FROM THE FOOTNOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER. PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE/ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE RESULT FROM THE HEALTHCARE SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE MEDICAL CENTER. ADDITIONS TO THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS RESULT FROM THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF AS UNCOLLECTIBLE ARE DEDUCTED FROM THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. THE AMOUNT OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS IS BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS, BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN MEDICARE AND MEDICAID HEALTH COVERAGE AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. CHARITY CARE THE MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA DEFINED BY THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SENIOR SERVICES ("DOHSS") WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. BECAUSE THE MEDICAL CENTER DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, THEY ARE NOT REPORTED AS REVENUE. THE MEDICAL CENTER'S RECORDS IDENTIFY AND MONITOR THE LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE IT PROVIDES AND INCLUDES THE AMOUNT OF CHARGES FORGONE FOR SERVICES AND SUPPLIES FURNISHED. THE AMOUNT OF CHARITY CARE PROVIDED UNDER DOHSS GUIDELINES DURING THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010, BASED ON AN ESTIMATE OF THE MEDICAL CENTER'S COSTS, WAS APPROXIMATELY $24,473,000 AND $16,292,000, RESPECTIVELY. THE COSTS OF CHARITY CARE ARE DERIVED FROM BOTH ESTIMATED AND ACTUAL DATA. THE ESTIMATED COST OF CHARITY CARE INCLUDES THE DIRECT AND INDIRECT COST OF PROVIDING SUCH SERVICES AND IS ESTIMATED UTILIZING THE MEDICAL CENTER'S RATIO OF COST TO GROSS CHARGES, WHICH IS THEN MULTIPLIED BY THE GROSS UNCOMPENSATED CHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING CARE TO CHARITY PATIENTS. THE HEALTH CARE REFORM ACT OF 1992 (THE "ACT") ESTABLISHED HEALTHCARE SUBSIDY FUNDS TO PROVIDE CERTAIN HOSPITALS WITH FUNDING TO PROVIDE CHARITY CARE AND OTHER FORMS OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE. THE MEDICAL CENTER HAS RECORDED THE FOLLOWING AMOUNTS FROM THE HEALTHCARE SUBSIDY FUNDS AND THE HOSPITAL STABILIZATION FUND IN NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE DURING 2011 AND 2010: 2011 2010 ---- ---- CHARITY CARE SUBSIDY $10,310,191 $10,507,296 HOSPITAL RELIEF SUBSIDY $ 2,278,434 $ 2,302,407 HOSPITAL STABILIZATION $ 4,000,000 $ 857,141 ----------- ----------- $16,588,625 $13,666,844 THE MEDICAL CENTER EXPECTS TO RECEIVE APPROXIMATELY $7.0, MILLION IN SUBSIDIES FOR DISTRIBUTIONS SCHEDULED THROUGH JUNE 30, 2012 AND $1.0 MILLION FROM THE HOSPITAL STABILIZATION FUND THROUGH JUNE 30, 2011. THE AMOUNTS OF SUBSIDIES AND DISTRIBUTIONS SUBSEQUENT TO JUNE 30, 2012 ARE PRESENTLY NOT DETERMINED.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 8 MEDICARE COSTS WERE DERIVED FROM THE 2011 MEDICARE COST REPORT. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THE ORGANIZATION FEELS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. AS OUTLINED MORE FULLY BELOW THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT THESE SERVICES AND RELATED COSTS PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AND ARE RENDERED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITABLE TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSES AND MISSION IN PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUAL'S IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY AND CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD PROMULGATED BY THE IRS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IS THE CURRENT STANDARD FOR A HOSPITAL FOR RECOGNITION AS A TAX-EXEMPT AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC") 501(C)(3). THE ORGANIZATION IS RECOGNIZED AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER 501(C)(3) OF THE IRC. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO DEFINITION IN THE TAX CODE FOR THE TERM "CHARITABLE" A REGULATION PROMULGATED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY PROVIDES SOME GUIDANCE AND STATES THAT "[T]HE TERM CHARITABLE IS USED IN SECTION 501(C)(3) IN ITS GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE," AND PROVIDES EXAMPLES OF CHARITABLE PURPOSES, INCLUDING THE RELIEF OF THE POOR OR UNPRIVILEGED; THE PROMOTION OF SOCIAL WELFARE; AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION, RELIGION, AND SCIENCE. NOTE IT DOES NOT EXPLICITLY ADDRESS THE ACTIVITIES OF HOSPITALS. IN THE ABSENCE OF EXPLICIT STATUTORY OR REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS APPLYING THE TERM "CHARITABLE" TO HOSPITALS, IT HAS BEEN LEFT TO THE IRS TO DETERMINE THE CRITERIA HOSPITALS MUST MEET TO QUALIFY AS IRC 501(C)(3) CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS. THE ORIGINAL STANDARD WAS KNOWN AS THE CHARITY CARE STANDARD. THIS STANDARD WAS REPLACED BY THE IRS WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD WHICH IS THE CURRENT STANDARD. CHARITY CARE STANDARD IN 1956, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 56-185, WHICH ADDRESSED THE REQUIREMENTS HOSPITALS NEEDED TO MEET IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR IRC 501(C)(3) STATUS. ONE OF THESE REQUIREMENTS IS KNOWN AS THE "CHARITY CARE STANDARD." UNDER THE STANDARD, A HOSPITAL HAD TO PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY FOR IT. A HOSPITAL THAT EXPECTED FULL PAYMENT DID NOT, ACCORDING TO THE RULING, PROVIDE CHARITY CARE BASED ON THE FACT THAT SOME PATIENTS ULTIMATELY FAILED TO PAY. THE RULING EMPHASIZED THAT A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE DID NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THAT A HOSPITAL HAD FAILED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT SINCE THAT LEVEL COULD REFLECT ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE SUCH CARE. THE RULING ALSO NOTED THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED COMMUNITY HOSPITALS WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY AS CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY, AND A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE WOULD NOT AFFECT A HOSPITAL'S EXEMPT STATUS IF IT WAS DUE TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY'S LACK OF CHARITABLE DEMANDS. COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IN 1969, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH "REMOVE[D]" FROM REVENUE RULING 56-185 "THE REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO CARING FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT RATES BELOW COST." UNDER THE STANDARD DEVELOPED IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE "COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD," HOSPITALS ARE JUDGED ON WHETHER THEY PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF A BROAD CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE RULING INVOLVED A HOSPITAL THAT ONLY ADMITTED INDIVIDUALS WHO COULD PAY FOR THE SERVICES (BY THEMSELVES, PRIVATE INSURANCE, OR PUBLIC PROGRAMS SUCH AS MEDICARE), BUT OPERATED A FULL-TIME EMERGENCY ROOM THAT WAS OPEN TO EVERYONE. THE IRS RULED THAT THE HOSPITAL QUALIFIED AS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION BECAUSE IT PROMOTED THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE IN ITS COMMUNITY. THE IRS REASONED THAT BECAUSE THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH WAS A CHARITABLE PURPOSE ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY, IT FELL WITHIN THE "GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE" OF THE TERM "CHARITABLE," AS REQUIRED BY TREAS. REG. 1.501(C)(3)-1(D)(2). THE IRS RULING STATED THAT THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH, LIKE THE RELIEF OF POVERTY AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RELIGION, IS ONE OF THE PURPOSES IN THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY THAT IS DEEMED BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE EVEN THOUGH THE CLASS OF BENEFICIARIES ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A DIRECT BENEFIT FROM ITS ACTIVITIES DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS INDIGENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDED THAT THE CLASS IS NOT SO SMALL THAT ITS RELIEF IS NOT OF BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE IRS CONCLUDED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS "PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF A CLASS OF PERSONS THAT IS BROAD ENOUGH TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY" BECAUSE ITS EMERGENCY ROOM WAS OPEN TO ALL AND IT PROVIDED CARE TO EVERYONE WHO COULD PAY, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT. OTHER CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HOSPITAL THAT THE IRS HIGHLIGHTED INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING: ITS SURPLUS FUNDS WERE USED TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, EXPAND HOSPITAL FACILITIES, AND ADVANCE MEDICAL TRAINING, EDUCATION, AND RESEARCH; IT WAS CONTROLLED BY A BOARD OF TRUSTEES THAT CONSISTED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS; AND HOSPITAL MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES WERE AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ("AHA") FEELS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THIS ORGANIZATION AGREES WITH THE AHA POSITION. AS OUTLINED IN THE AHA LETTER TO THE IRS DATED AUGUST 21, 2007 WITH RESPECT TO THE FIRST PUBLISHED DRAFT OF THE NEW FORM 990 AND SCHEDULE H, THE AHA FELT THAT THE IRS SHOULD INCORPORATE THE FULL VALUE OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT THAT HOSPITALS PROVIDE BY COUNTING MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: - PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY AND SERVING MEDICARE PATIENTS IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD. - MEDICARE, LIKE MEDICAID, DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE. RECENTLY, MEDICARE REIMBURSES HOSPITALS ONLY 92 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR THEY SPEND TO TAKE CARE OF MEDICARE PATIENTS. THE MEDICARE PAYMENT ADVISORY COMMISSION ("MEDPAC") IN ITS MARCH 2007 REPORT TO CONGRESS CAUTIONED THAT UNDERPAYMENT WILL GET EVEN WORSE, WITH MARGINS REACHING A 10-YEAR LOW AT NEGATIVE 5.4 PERCENT. - MANY MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 46 PERCENT OF MEDICARE SPENDING IS FOR BENEFICIARIES WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MANY OF THOSE MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID -- SO CALLED "DUAL ELIGIBLES." THERE IS EVERY COMPELLING PUBLIC POLICY REASON TO TREAT MEDICARE AND MEDICAID UNDERPAYMENTS SIMILARLY FOR PURPOSES OF A HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND INCLUDE THESE COSTS ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT MUST BE SHOULDERED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE COMMUNITY'S ELDERLY AND POOR. THESE UNDERPAYMENTS REPRESENT A REAL COST OF SERVING THE COMMUNITY AND SHOULD COUNT AS A QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT. BOTH THE AHA AND THIS ORGANIZATION ALSO FEEL THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT IS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. LIKE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT (SHORTFALLS), THERE ALSO ARE COMPELLING REASONS THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT SHOULD BE COUNTED AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS FOLLOWS: - A SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, WHO, FOR MANY REASONS, DECLINE TO COMPLETE THE FORMS REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY FOR HOSPITALS' CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. A 2006 CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ("CBO") REPORT, NONPROFIT HOSPITALS AND THE PROVISION OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS, CITED TWO STUDIES INDICATING THAT "THE GREAT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT WAS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WITH INCOMES BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE." - THE REPORT ALSO NOTED THAT A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. UNLIKE BAD DEBT IN OTHER INDUSTRIES, HOSPITAL BAD DEBT IS COMPLICATED BY THE FACT THAT HOSPITALS FOLLOW THEIR MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TREAT EVERY PATIENT THAT COMES THROUGH THEIR EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. PATIENTS WHO HAVE OUTSTANDING BILLS ARE NOT TURNED AWAY, UNLIKE OTHER INDUSTRIES. BAD DEBT IS FURTHER COMPLICATED BY THE AUDITING INDUSTRY'S STANDARDS ON REPORTING CHARITY CARE. MANY PATIENTS CANNOT OR DO NOT PROVIDE THE NECESSARY, EXTENSIVE DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED TO BE DEEMED CHARITY CARE BY AUDITORS. AS A RESULT, ROUGHLY 40% OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. - THE CBO CONCLUDED THAT ITS FINDINGS "SUPPORT THE VALIDITY OF THE USE OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE [BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE] AS A MEASURE OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS" ASSUMING THE FINDINGS ARE GENERALIZABLE NATIONWIDE;
COLLECTION POLICY SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 9B ACCOUNTS CONSIDERED TO BE CHARITY CARE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, BUT RATHER, ACCOUNTED FOR AS AN ALLOWANCE. IT IS THE POLICY OF RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER, TO TREAT ALL PATIENTS EQUALLY REGARDLESS OF INSURANCE AND THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. FOR ACCOUNTS DETERMINED TO BE "SELF-PAY" AND/OR ACCOUNTS WITH BALANCE AFTER PRIMARY INSURANCE PAYMENTS, THE COLLECTION POLICY REQUIRES: SENDING THREE STATEMENTS, A MINIMUM OF ONE PRE-COLLECTION LETTER, TELEPHONE CONTACT OR AT THE DISCRETION OF THE ACCOUNT REPRESENTATIVE AND/OR SUPERVISOR. THE FACILITY ALSO HAS A CHARITY CARE ACCESS POLICY TO ASSURE PATIENTS ARE PROVIDED WITH CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE DETERMINED BY STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS. IT IS THE POLICY TO INFORM ALL PATIENTS DEEMED SELF-PAY OF THE APPROPRIATE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE. PATIENTS APPLYING FOR CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE WILL BE FINANCIALLY SCREENED BY A RESOURCE ADVISOR TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY ACCORDING TO STATE AND FEDERAL GUIDELINES AND WILL BE INFORMED OF DOCUMENTATION NEEDED TO COMPLETE A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION. PATIENTS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE WILL BE FINANCIALLY COUNSELED FOR ALL OTHER OPTIONS. QUALIFIED PATIENTS WILL BE REFERRED TO ALL APPROPRIATE AGENCIES OR PROGRAMS TO MEET OTHER FINANCIAL NEEDS. AT THE TIME OF THE PATIENT VISIT AND PART OF THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AT THE FACILITY, THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO PATIENTS: - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE INCLUDING MEDICAID AND SSI; - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR THE NEW JERSEY HOSPITAL CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM; AND, - FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS INCLUDING: 1. CASH/CREDIT CARD (AMERICAN EXPRESS, DISCOVER, VISA, MASTERCARD), 2. LOW INTEREST LOAN PROGRAM, OR 3. FLEXIBLE PAYMENT PLANS. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE OPTIONS, THE FACILITY HAS ESTABLISHED A SELF-PAY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM FOR OUR UNINSURED PATIENTS THAT DO NOT QUALIFY FOR MEDICAID OR THE NEW JERSEY HOSPITAL CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THE SELF-PAY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM RATES ARE REFLECTIVE OF MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT, AS REFERRED BY THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY.

COMMUNITY BENEFIT STATEMENT CORE FORM, PART III; STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS BACKGROUND ========== RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER ("RBMC") IS A GENERAL MEDICAL AND SURGICAL HOSPITAL. RBMC IS RECOGNIZED BY THE IRS AS AN INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 501(C)(3) TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION. PURSUANT TO ITS CHARITABLE PURPOSES, RBMC PROVIDES MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUALS IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER REGARDLESS OF RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY. MOREOVER, RBMC OPERATES CONSISTENTLY WITH THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA OUTLINED IN IRS REVENUE RULING 69-545: 1) RBMC PROVIDES MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUALS REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY, INCLUDING CHARITY CARE, SELF-PAY, MEDICARE AND MEDICAID PATIENTS; 2) RBMC OPERATES AN ACTIVE EMERGENCY ROOM FOR ALL PERSONS; WHICH IS OPEN 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK, 365 DAYS PER YEAR; 3) RBMC MAINTAINS AN OPEN MEDICAL STAFF, WITH PRIVILEGES AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS; 4) CONTROL OF RBMC RESTS WITH ITS BOARD OF DIRECTORS; WHICH IS COMPRISED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS AND OTHER PROMINENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY; AND 5) SURPLUS FUNDS ARE USED TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF PATIENT CARE, EXPAND AND RENOVATE FACILITIES AND ADVANCE MEDICAL CARE, PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES. HISTORY ======= PERTH AMBOY, THE FIRST INCORPORATED CITY IN NEW JERSEY (1718) WAS FERTILE SOIL FOR THE RAPID INDUSTRIALIZATION THAT MARKED THE 19TH CENTURY. WITH ITS HARBOR AND WATERWAYS, SHIPPING, FISHING AND FACTORIES BEGAN SPRINGING UP; AND, AS FACTORIES WERE BUILT, WORKERS WERE IN HIGH DEMAND. SINGLE MEN ENGAGED IN PERILOUS WORK IS A DANGEROUS COMBINATION. BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ONE TO CARE FOR THESE MEN AND INJURIES WERE ON THE RISE, INTERESTED CITIZENS AND CITY LEADERSHIP MET IN 1888 TO DISCUSS PLANS FOR BUILDING AN EMERGENCY HOSPITAL. FROM THIS MEETING EMERGED A TENTATIVE RESOLUTION TO SEEK FUNDS - FUNDS TO BUILD A 12-BED HOSPITAL WHICH, THOUGH PERHAPS UNIMAGINABLE AT THE TIME, WOULD LATER BECOME RBMC, A TWO-CAMPUS 501-BED HEALTHCARE FACILITY SERVING CENTRAL NEW JERSEY. AFTER FOURTEEN YEARS OF FALSE STARTS AND CAPITAL DEFICITS, PERTH AMBOY CITY HOSPITAL WAS DEDICATED ON MAY 2, 1902. YEARS OF TIRELESS FUNDRAISING AND PERSONAL SACRIFICE BY WOMEN'S GROUPS, LOCAL BENEFACTORS, ETHNIC GROUPS AND CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS BUILT AND FURNISHED WHAT WAS CONSIDERED A STATE-OF-THE-ART FACILITY AT THE TURN OF THE CENTURY. A SIX-MEMBER MEDICAL STAFF WAS APPOINTED AND A NURSE MATRON AND ASSISTANT WERE PUT IN CHARGE. FIVE WEEKS LATER PERTH AMBOY CITY HOSPITAL HAD TREATED ITS FIRST 12 PATIENTS. ONE YEAR LATER THE HOSPITAL HAD ITS OWN SCHOOL OF NURSING! BY 1913, THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS REALIZED THAT 12 BEDS COULD NO LONGER SUPPORT THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE CITY'S BURGEONING POPULATION. FROM THAT TIME UNTIL RIGHT BEFORE THE ONSLAUGHT OF THE GREAT DEPRESSION, PERTH AMBOY CITY HOSPITAL EXPERIENCED TREMENDOUS GROWTH. ADDITIONS MADE ROOM FOR MATERNITY SERVICES, AN ADVANCED LABORATORY AND X-RAY DEPARTMENT, ADDITIONAL OPERATING ROOM SPACE AND EXPANDED LIVING QUARTERS FOR THE NURSE RESIDENTS. DESPITE THE INCREASING NEED FOR ADDITIONAL TREATMENT SPACE, DECEMBER 7, 1941 HALTED PLANS FOR EXPANSION. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE WAR IN 1945, PERTH AMBOY CITY HOSPITAL TREATED ITS FIRST PATIENT USING A NEW WONDER DRUG, PENICILLIN, WHICH WAS BROUGHT TO THE HOSPITAL UNDER POLICE ESCORT. WAR-DELAYED ADDITIONS WERE THEN RAPIDLY UNDERTAKEN DURING THE NEXT 15 YEARS, SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASING BED CAPACITY AND THE SPACE NECESSARY TO OFFER ADVANCED TECHNIQUES THAT WERE ONCE ONLY AVAILABLE IN MAJOR MEDICAL CENTERS. BY THE 1960'S, THE STAGE WAS SET FOR THE HOSPITAL TO ENTER INTO AN ERA OF "FIRSTS," WHERE INNOVATION WAS FUELED BY CONTINUING RENOVATION AND EXPANSION. IN 1964, SURGEONS PERFORMED ONE OF THE FIRST SUCCESSFUL PACEMAKER IMPLANTS. BY 1968, SCIENTISTS IN THE HOSPITAL'S INSTITUTE OF LABORATORY MEDICINE HAD LINKED A SMALL REFRIGERATOR SIZED COMPUTER TO A SET OF AUTOMATIC ANALYZING MACHINES AND CAME UP WITH A COMPLETELY NEW KIND OF HOSPITAL SERVICECOMPUTERIZED AUTOMATION. DURING THE 1970'S THE HOSPITAL FOUND ITSELF AT THE FOREFRONT OF CARDIAC MEDICINE, RECORDING NEW JERSEY'S FIRST SUCCESSFUL IMPLANT OF THE RECHARGEABLE PACEMAKER IN 1974 AND USING ONE OF THE VERY FIRST CAT SCANNERS IN MIDDLESEX COUNTY IN 1979. PATIENTS AND PHYSICIANS INCREASINGLY GAINED EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO WORLD-CLASS HEALTHCARE RIGHT IN THEIR OWN BACKYARD. BY 1976, A NEW BUILDING PROGRAM WAS IN THE WORKS. EXTENSIVE CONSTRUCTION PLANS WERE CREATED FOR PERTH AMBOY, BUT THE MOST AMBITIOUS PART OF THE PROGRAM WAS THE BUILDING OF AN 80-BED AFFILIATE HOSPITAL ON A 41-ACRE LOT IN OLD BRIDGE TOWNSHIP. OLD BRIDGE REGIONAL HOSPITAL WAS COMPLETED IN JUST LESS THAN TWO YEARS, OPENING ITS DOORS ON JANUARY 2, 1979! THROUGH ITS AFFILIATION WITH ITS PERTH AMBOY SISTER FACILITY, FOR THE FIRST TIME RESIDENTS SOUTH OF THE RARITAN RIVER COULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL OF THE ADVANCED MEDICAL SERVICES AND TECHNIQUES USUALLY RESERVED FOR HOSPITALS IN URBAN CENTERS. RBMC HEALTH SERVICES CORPORATION, THE NEW NAME FOR THE COMBINED HOSPITALS IN OLD BRIDGE AND PERTH AMBOY (LATER CHANGED SIMPLY TO RBMC), SAW ADVANCEMENTS IN SURGERY AND NON-SURGICAL THERAPIES, DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, EDUCATION AND CONTINUED PHYSICAL EXPANSION THROUGHOUT THE 1980'S. IN FACT, OLD BRIDGE REGIONAL HOSPITAL BECAME THE HOME TO THE FIRST LASER KNEE SURGERY PERFORMED IN NEW JERSEY IN 1988! THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE OLD BRIDGE MEDICAL ARTS BUILDING THEN BROUGHT A NEW LEVEL OF CONVENIENCE TO PHYSICIANS AND PATIENTS, FURTHER UPHOLDING RBMC'S PLEDGE TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST QUALITY HEALTHCARE TO ITS MIDDLESEX COUNTY FAMILY. NEVER RESTING ON ITS LAURELS, IN 1990 THE HOSPITAL SUBMITTED A CERTIFICATE OF NEED TO THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY DETAILING ITS PLANS FOR EXPANSION. SIGNIFICANTLY NAMED, "RENEWAL 2000," THE REQUEST OUTLINED AN AGGRESSIVE $53.6 MILLION RECONSTRUCTION PLAN THAT WOULD AFFECT MOST KEY SERVICE AREAS IN PERTH AMBOY, INCLUDING BUILDING A NEW OUTPATIENT CENTER AND ADDING A PATIENT FLOOR TO THE OLD BRIDGE CAMPUS. WHILE EXTENSIVE RECONSTRUCTION CHANGED THE FACE OF BOTH HOSPITALS, PATIENT CARE PROGRESSED AT OPTIMUM LEVELS. PARTICIPATION IN ADVANCED CLINICAL TRIALS INCREASED AND AFFILIATIONS WERE DEVELOPED WITH ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL, THE CANCER INSTITUTE OF NEW JERSEY, THE EASTERN COOPERATIVE ONCOLOGY GROUP AND THE ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON HEALTH NETWORK. INCREASED SPECIALIZED SERVICES SUCH AS THE MARION TANZMAN DIABETES CENTER, THE JACQUELINE M. AND ROBERT M. WILENTZ CANCER CENTER, THE CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION LABORATORY, THE BIRTHING CENTER AND CENTER FOR WOMEN WERE BUT A FEW OF THE MANY EXCITING HAPPENINGS TO ADD TO RBMC'S GROWING LIST OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS. AFTER RENEWAL 2000 WAS COMPLETED IN 1997, POST-CONSTRUCTION RELAXATION WAS SHORT-LIVED AS THE HOSPITAL UNVEILED ITS NEW PLANS FOR IMPROVING EMERGENCY CARE, CALLED "PROJECT ER." SO AS NOT TO SACRIFICE PATIENT CARE, PROJECT ER WAS DESIGNED AS A MULTIPHASE CONSTRUCTION, RENOVATION AND REVITALIZATION OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT SERVICES AT BOTH HOSPITALS. 2001 SAW THE FINAL STAGES OF RENOVATIONS PROGRESSING IN PERTH AMBOY, AND THE SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF THE OLD BRIDGE DIVISION EXPANSION. AND, ALTHOUGH IT SHOULD BE NO SURPRISE, WITH PROJECT ER FINISHED, PLANS FOR FUTURE EXPANSION ARE ON THE DRAWING BOARD! LOOKING BACK OVER THE MORE THAN 100 YEARS THAT RBMC HAS BEEN BRINGING THE LATEST ADVANCEMENTS IN HEALTHCARE TO CENTRAL NEW JERSEY IN A SUPPORTIVE AND CARING ATMOSPHERE, IT IS NO WONDER WHY, IN 2001, READERS OF THE HOME NEWS TRIBUNE VOTED US THE "BEST HOSPITAL IN CENTRAL NEW JERSEY." 2011 FACTS ========== STAFF SIZE: - MEDICAL STAFF OF 600 MEMBERS - PROFESSIONAL NURSING AND SERVICE STAFF OF 1,700 VITAL STATS: - JOINT COMMISSION ACCREDITED - DESIGNATION AS A MAGNET HOSPITAL FOR NURSING EXCELLENCE - MORE THAN 15,000 INPATIENT ADMISSIONS ANNUALLY - MORE THAN 75,000 EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS ANNUALLY - MORE THAN 45,000 PRIVATE REFERRED OUTPATIENT VISITS ANNUALLY - MORE THAN 1,200 BIRTHS ANNUALLY MISSION STATEMENT ================= RBMC, A NON-PROFIT HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATION, IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING PROFESSIONAL, COMPASSIONATE AND QUALITY HEALTHCARE TO ALL PATIENTS AND TO MEETING THE CHANGING HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF ITS COMMUNITIES.

THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE COMMITTEE REVIEWED THE FORM 990 AND A MEETING WAS HELD WITH THE FINANCE COMMITTEE TO DISCUSS AND FINALIZE THE RETURN PRIOR TO MAKING IT AVAILABLE TO THE ORGANIZATION'S GOVERNING BODY. THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE COMMITTEE HAS BEEN DELEGATED THE RESPONSIBILITY TO OVERSEE AND COORDINATE THE FEDERAL FORM 990 PREPARATION, REVIEW AND FILING PROCESS. AS PART OF THE TAX RETURN PREPARATION PROCESS THE ORGANIZATION HIRED A PROFESSIONAL CPA FIRM WITH EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE IN BOTH HEALTHCARE AND NOT-FOR-PROFIT TAX RETURN PREPARATION TO PREPARE THE FEDERAL FORM 990. THE CPA FIRM'S TAX PROFESSIONALS WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE PERSONNEL AND VARIOUS OTHER INDIVIDUALS OF THE ORGANIZATION TO OBTAIN THE INFORMATION NEEDED IN ORDER TO PREPARE A COMPLETE AND ACCURATE TAX RETURN.
