Part III, Line 4: The cost methodology used was derived by applying a total hospital overall cost to charges for a ratio of 39.95%. That percent was then multiplied by the incurred and reported bad debt expense. Part III, Line 9B: It is the policy of Saints Medical Center (The Medical Center) that within the resources of the medical center, care is provided to all that seek it. The medical center assists patients in obtaining financial assistance from public programs and other sources whenever appropriate. To remain viable as it fulfills its mission, the medical center must meet its fiduciary responsibility to appropriately bill and collect for medical services provided to patients. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, citizenship, alienage, religion, creed, sex, sexual preference, age, or disability, in its policies, or in its application of policies, concerning the acquisition and verification of financial information, pre-admission or pretreatment deposits, payment plans, deferred or rejected admissions, or low income patient status as determined by the Massachusetts office of Medicaid, determinations that a patient is low income, or in its billing and collection practices. The medical center derives its revenue primarily from patient care. It is necessary that those receiving care pay for it to the extent that their own resources and/or third party coverage permit. It is therefore essential that complete and accurate information concerning such resources and coverage is obtained prior to admission or treatment or, if this is not feasible, as soon as possible following admission or treatment. Credit and collection procedures relating to patient care are provided as the basis for the extension of credit, the collection of funds, and the write-off of certain patient balances, as either health safety net or as un-collectable accounts. The credit and collection policy was developed to ensure compliance with applicable criteria required under (1) the health safety net eligibility regulation (114.6 CMR 13.00), (2) the centers for Medicare and Medicaid services Medicare bad debt requirements (42 CFR 413.89), and (3) the Medicare provider reimbursement manual (part 1, chapter 3). This credit and collection policy applies to the medical center and any entity that is part of the medical center's license or tax ID number. The medical center does not pursue collection efforts on patients who are on financial assistance. Saints Medical Center: Part V, Section B, Line 9: 1. Eligibility for financial assistance is posted throughout the hospital. 2. Notice of availability of free care is included with all patient statements that are mailed. 3. Inpatient information package provides information on financial assistance. 4. At the time of registration patients are advised on the availability of financial assistance. 5. All patients classified as self-pay who cannot afford to pay will be screened for financial assistance eligibility. Saints Medical Center: Part V, Section B, Line 10: It is the policy of Saints Medical Center (The Medical Center) that within the resources of the medical center, care is provided to all that seek it. The medical center assists patients in obtaining financial assistance from public programs and other sources whenever appropriate. To remain viable as it fulfills its mission, the medical center must meet its fiduciary responsibility to appropriately bill and collect for medical services provided to patients. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, citizenship, alienage, religion, creed, sex, sexual preference, age, or disability, in its policies, or in its application of policies, concerning the acquisition and verification of financial information, pre-admission or pretreatment deposits, payment plans, deferred or rejected admissions, or low income patient status as determined by the Massachusetts office of Medicaid, determination that a patient is low income, or in its billing and collection practices.

Part VI, line 4: form 990 Schedule H, part VI, supplemental community information 4. Community information - saint's medical center is a nonprofit, full service, acute care community hospital serving greater Lowell since 1839. A 157-bed licensed medical center, saints provides advanced health services to 315,000 residents in 25 towns. Through 6/30/12, saints discharged 6,385 inpatients, with an average length of stay of 3.94 days. Total hospital outpatient visits and procedures for FY 2012 are 158,707 of which 32,775 are emergency department encounters; laboratory testing for patient, community physicians and other facilities totaled 950,145; and saints surgeons performed over 926 inpatient and 2,016 outpatient surgeries. With nearly 250 physicians and 1,100 employees, saint's medical center is well known for outstanding medical care and patient-centered facilities including our cancer center, orthopedic center and cardiovascular services. Saints offers convenient community-based care at several ambulatory sites and is dedicated to promoting health and wellness in the community. Since 2001, saints has provided the greater Lowell community with over $26 million dollars in free community benefit and community service programs, local sponsorships and employee volunteerism efforts. The medical center has clinical affiliations with the leading Boston academic medical centers and is proud to be one of the top-rated hospitals in Massachusetts according to the joint commission for the accreditation of healthcare organizations. Saints continues to provide comprehensive, holistic health services to all people, especially the poor and disadvantaged, in accordance with our mission. Approximately 35% of Lowell's population (105,167) is documented as belonging to an ethnic minority. Lowell has sizable Asian (22%) and Hispanic (15.5%) populations. Over the last several years, Lowell has experienced a large influx of Brazilian, Portuguese and African immigrants. Many of these populations are included in the uninsured and underinsured groups. Additionally, 34% of Lowell households speak a primary language other than English at home. 13% of households have an income less than $10,000; 20% have an income less than $15,000. (Source: MASSCHIP CHNA Health status indicators report). A recent study sponsored by the centers for disease control and prevention found: 36.2% of southeast Asian, 33.9% of Hispanic, and 21.8% of African respondents in the greater Lowell area reported being in "fair or poor" health, in contrast to only 12.1% of the overall population; 14.1% of southeast Asian respondents, 17.5% of African respondents and 29.9% of Hispanic respondents reported being unable to see a doctor because of inability to pay, as opposed to 6.5% in the overall population; only 37.4% of minority respondents report ever having their cholesterol level checked, compared to 82.4% of the general population. Only 18.8% of minority respondents over 65 reported ever receiving a pneumococcal vaccination, vs. 63.5% of the overall population. In keeping with its mission, saints works to continue identifying health Needs and health risks specific to each community in greater Lowell, as well as maintains active participation in outreach activities within Greater Lowell communities. Saints medical center provides community education through the distribution of information about access to care, provides assistance to enroll individuals in appropriate public assistance programs, provides referrals to primary care physicians, and promotes cultural awareness of beliefs, values and practices for specific minority populations. Ultimately, the staff at saints aims to recognize a decreasing trend in the number of individuals within the greater Lowell community without a primary care physician, as well as develop and maintain culturally-appropriate services to facilitate access to care, thus increasing overall access to care, with the goal of improving the health of the greater Lowell population. Part VI, line 5: expanding access to care especially to the underserved is the highest priority at saints. Our initiative includes several components: outreach efforts to improve accessibility and communication, referrals to primary care physicians, education and assistance with obtaining health coverage and providing culturally appropriate education materials, provide for open medical staff, address the needs of the community board and ability to support programs with surplus funds. Identified barriers to adequate medical care and services include: cultural, ethnic, linguistic barriers, religious barriers, financial barriers, barriers to information about access to care and lack of programs/services that directly address specific health care needs. Short term goals and objectives: -Educate members of the targeted minority populations
