| Part III, Line 4a | Statement of Program Service Accomplishments | Indiana University Health System Indiana University Health ("IU Health") is the state's largest and most comprehensive health system. With hospitals in sixteen Indiana communities, the system's strength is grounded in its unique partnership with Indiana University School of Medicine ("IUSOM"), one of the nation's leading medical schools. Millions of people annually, across Indiana and beyond, receive nationally recognized, patient-centered care at IU Health. Indiana University Health, Inc. The parent organization of the Indiana University Health System is Indiana University Health, Inc. Our Mission IU Health, a statewide academic health system formed in 1997, is dedicated to its mission to improve the health of its patients and communities through innovation and excellence in care, education, research and service. Our Values At IU Health, we value: - Total patient care, including mind, body and spirit - Excellence in education for healthcare providers - Quality of care and respect for life - Charity, equality and justice in healthcare - Leadership in health promotion and wellness - Excellence in research - An internal community of mutual trust and respect Our Vision IU Health strives to be a preeminent leader in clinical care, education, research and service. Our excellence is measured by objective evidence and established best practices. Exemplary levels of respect and dignity are given to patients and their families, while professionalism and collegiality mark relationships between employees and physicians. IU Health continues to focus on innovation and excellence through collaboration among its partner hospitals and its affiliation with IUSOM. Financial Assistance and Unreimbursed Care Ensuring Access to Quality Healthcare IU Health has a long tradition of helping people in need gain access to high-quality healthcare. This includes treating all patients, regardless of their ability to pay. With on-site financial assistance counselors at each hospital, IU Health offers comprehensive financial assistance services to those who are low income, uninsured or underinsured. Criteria for Financial Assistance Federal poverty guidelines are used to determine eligibility for financial assistance. This financial assistance, also referred to as charity care, provides free or reduced-cost healthcare to low-income individuals. While there are some differences in how financial assistance is determined across IU Health system hospitals, general guidelines include: - Free care for those earning up to 200 percent of federal poverty guidelines. - Discounted care on a sliding scale for families earning 200 to 400 percent of federal poverty guidelines, which is approximately $46,100 to $92,200 for a family of four. - Discounted care on a sliding scale for families earning 400 to 650 percent of federal poverty guidelines. - Free care to patients whose health insurance does not cover all medical expenses and whose medical expenses would make them indigent if forced to cover all costs. Information about IU Health's financial assistance policy is given to patients when they register and is also included on IU Health billing statements. Financial assistance applications are available online at http://iuhealth.org/patients/billing-center/financial-assistance/. Unreimbursed Costs IU Health absorbs unreimbursed costs from government-sponsored programs that are based on income level, such as Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), local and state government programs for persons not eligible for Medicaid, and others. Community Health Improvement Promoting Healthier Communities Improving the health of Indiana communities is an important priority for IU Health, both inside hospital walls and beyond them as well. IU Health has a substantial community benefits program. Health Professions Education Educating Tomorrow's Healthcare Professionals Through its unique partnership with IUSOM, IU Health is committed to educating and preparing the next generation of healthcare professionals. In addition, IU Health offers programming aimed at continuously improving the skills and knowledge of those currently practicing in the field. Supporting Nurses in First Year of Practice Fifty first-year nurses from several IU Health facilities, including IU Health West Hospital, IU Health University Hospital and Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health, participated in a pilot program designed to help new nurses adjust to the requirements and stressors of working in complex patient care environments. This new Nursing Residency Program provides participants with targeted education on specific topics, peer-to-peer support and unit-level mentorship. Accredited Pharmacy Residency Program IU Health's strong pharmacy residency program, based at the system's downtown Indianapolis hospitals, covers many disciplines, including pharmacy practice, pediatrics, critical care, internal medicine and infectious disease. In 2012, pharmacy informatics was added to the list of specialties. The IU Health pharmacy residency program is one of only six in the nation - accredited by the American Society of Health-Systems Pharmacists - to offer the informatics residency option, which helps residents gain knowledge and experience in management of pharmacy information systems. |
| Part III, Line 4a (Continued) | Statement of Program Service Accomplishments | Subsidized Health Services Services and Care for Those in Need IU Health offers a number of programs and services to help those in need improve their health and wellbeing. While IU Health often provides these services at a financial loss, ensuring underserved populations have access to these essential services is an important IU Health priority. IU Health Hospice http://iuhealth.org/hospice/ IU Health Hospice provides traditional and alternative services to help improve the quality of life for hospice patients. Our specially trained interdisciplinary team works with each patient's doctors to provide pain management services as well as complementary, alternative treatments to fully focus on patient comfort, symptom relief and improvement of quality of life. Hospice care services include nursing visits, respite care, pharmaceutical services, medical social work, spiritual care, and counseling services. IU Health Diabetes http://iuhealth.org/diabetes-endocrinology/ Uncontrolled diabetes can put a person at risk for complications such as increased risk for heart attack and stroke, kidney, nerve, eye damage, and many other conditions. The IU Health team of certified diabetes educators, dietitians and nurses with specialized training in diabetes care and education work collaboratively to develop treatment plans that best suit each individual patient. The following IU Health locations provide diabetes education classes to help community members and families gain the knowledge and skills they need to achieve and maintain control of diabetes. - IU Health Methodist Hospital - IU Health University Hospital - Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health Research http://iuhealth.org/knowledge/ Innovation and Discovery Support Health and Healing IU Health fosters a strong commitment to research excellence; in fact, it's part of the health system's mission. As an academic health system, IU Health is at the forefront of new treatment innovations designed to improve patient outcomes and enhance quality of life. In countless endeavors, IU Health actively supports researchers by providing access to the latest technology and facilities, fostering an environment that makes new discoveries possible. Collaborative Strategic Research Initiative In 2012, IU Health and IUSOM announced they will invest $150 million over five years in a new research collaboration, the Strategic Research Initiative, that will enhance the institutions' joint capabilities in fundamental scientific investigation, translational research and clinical trials resulting in innovative treatments for disease. IU Health is investing $75 million in the Strategic Research Initiative and IU School of Medicine is matching that with an additional $75 million in resources. The initial focus will be on projects in the fields of neuroscience, cancer and cardiovascular disease. New treatment for aneurysm In 2012, IU Health Methodist Hospital was the first hospital in the state and second in the nation to successfully implant a special stent graft, the Ventana Fenestrated Stent Graft System, aimed at helping those who previously required invasive surgery to repair an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The new system could offer a less invasive approach by not cutting off blood flow to the kidneys or requiring open repair, which has up to a 10 percent mortality rate. IU Health surgeons are hopeful this new procedure, still in clinical trials, will have a one percent or less mortality rate. Promising tool for autism research The Riley Hospital for Children Christian Sarkine Autism Treatment Center at Indiana University Health began using a new tool, the Eye Tracker, to better detect, assess the severity, and possibly even change the treatment of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). The Eye Tracker is a non-invasive way to gauge how people look at faces and whether a person is more prone to looking at moving objects or social situations. Studies reveal that toddlers with autism look more at moving objects than toddlers with normal development. Eye Tracker results are used to help identify subgroups of people with autism that may respond best to certain treatment. Riley Hospital at IU Health is the only hospital in the Midwest and one of just a few nationwide using the tool for autism research. |
| Part III, Line 4a (Continued) | Statement of Program Service Accomplishments | Financial and In-Kind Contributions Teaming Up to Care for Those in Need Creating partnerships with organizations that share similar values is an important part of IU Health's community outreach efforts. Across Indiana, IU Health hospitals donate funds and provide in-kind contributions to improve communities and foster better health. Donation of Life- Saving Device Additionally, IU Health West donated an AED and all of the necessary supplies to the Hendricks County Senior Services Center. Dozens of seniors gather in the building daily for meals, programs, exercise and fellowship. The center did not have this crucial and potentially life-saving piece of equipment. Community Building Building Strong Communities, Building Better Lives Through financial support and its team member volunteer network, "Strength That Cares," IU Health supports Indiana communities. While health and wellness are the primary focus, IU Health is committed to activities that make life better for all - especially those who are most vulnerable. Strength that Cares Through IU Health's team member volunteer program, Strength That Cares, team members across the state made a difference in the lives of thousands of Hoosiers. In 2012, volunteers: - Built 25 Habitat for Humanity home panels throughout Indiana. Three of those homes were given to victims of the Henryville, Ind., tornado. - Impacted the lives of just over 400 at-risk children by serving as camp or reading buddies in IU Health's Kindergarten Countdown program to prepare at-risk children for their first day of kindergarten. - Collected over 5,000 books during the Kindergarten Countdown Book Drive to provide one book, each day, to each child served in the program's camps. For some children, this was the first book they ever owned. - Packaged 20,000 nutritious meals for malnourished and underserved children and families in Indiana as part of IU Health's Martin Luther King Jr. Day Celebration. - Educated visitors to the Indiana State Fair on how to live a healthier lifestyle by eating nutritious foods and being active. College Mentors for Kids To support education and development, IU Health provided a financial donation to the College Mentors for Kids program. College Mentors for Kids' mission is to connect college students with the most to give to kids who need it most. By promoting educational achievement and professional goal-setting from a young age, College Mentors helps develop productive, motivated adults. Starfish Initiative - Back 2 School Expo The Starfish Initiative is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of at-risk and economically disadvantaged high school students. IU Health provided a donation to support the Starfish Initiative's Back 2 School Expo in 2012. This free community event provided the parents of children in grades Pre-K through 12th access to valuable information related to planning for and financing college, educational options, extracurricular activities and additional resources to help their children have a successful future. 2012 Community Benefit Needs and Priorities Many factors contribute to the health and wellbeing of individuals and communities. Social and environmental factors play a large role in determining the overall health of our communities, part of which is defined by the access people have to high-quality care. Through a targeted community outreach strategy, Indiana University Health seeks to address these needs through impactful programs and collaborations that achieve measureable results. IU Health continually analyzes community needs assessments and best practices of local and national organizations, including the Indiana State Department of Health, county health departments, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and United Way of Central Indiana, to identify the most critical needs and determine its system-wide community health outreach priorities. IU Health focused on these health priorities in 2012: - Preventing and reversing obesity - Expanding access to healthcare - Preventing injuries - Enhancing childhood education - Revitalizing communities |
| Part III, Line 4a (Continued) | Statement of Program Service Accomplishments | Preventing and reversing obesity Obesity is a risk factor for a number of diseases, including diabetes, heart disease and stroke, hypertension, arthritis, and cancer. A 2006 analysis of nine studies assessing produce consumption and risk of heart disease found that disease risk decreases four percent for each additional portion per day of fruits and vegetables. Additionally, a study with a 19-year follow up showed that those who ate fruits and vegetables at least three times per day (compared to those who did not eat fruits and vegetables on a daily basis) had a 27 percent lower risk of having a stroke - and a reduced risk of dying from stroke and cardiovascular disease throughout the study. IU Health targets obesity by focusing on its primary causes: lack of physical activity and exercise options, poor diet and inadequate access to healthy and nutritious foods. Garden on the Go Launched in May 2011 with 12 weekly stops, Garden on the Go, is a year-round mobile produce initiative started by IU Health to improve access to fresh, affordable fruits and vegetables in "food deserts" in Marion County (Indianapolis). Urban neighborhoods and rural towns without nearby access to supermarkets and grocery stores are often referred to as "food deserts." Many of these neighborhoods have little access to fresh fruits and vegetables or are limited to only fast food restaurants and convenience stores offering few healthy food options. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), there are at least 40 low-income census tracts in the Indianapolis area in which a significant number of residents is more than one mile from the nearest supermarket. After just four months, Garden on the Go was expanded to 16 stops, and in 2012, the coverage area includes 22 stops. Program Highlights and Impact - Garden on the Go reported 18,998 transactions to thousands of community members in underserved neighborhoods across Marion County in 2012. - For just $7, Garden on the Go shoppers can purchase one pound of green beans, one pound of bananas, one pound of tomatoes, three pounds of potatoes, a bunch of greens, a head of lettuce, a couple of apples and a couple of oranges. - In 2012, Garden on the Go received the Indiana State Health Commissioner Award for Excellence in Public Health. The award is given to programs that contribute to promoting, protecting and providing for the health of the people of Indiana. Indy Urban Acres Established in 2011, Indy Urban Acres is an eight-acre organic urban farm that supplies homegrown fruits and vegetables to Hoosiers with financial need. The project is a collaboration between IU Health, the Indianapolis Parks Department, the Indianapolis Parks Foundation and Gleaners Food Bank. Produce from Indy Urban Acres is donated to two Gleaners food pantries - Indianapolis Public Schools #14 food pantry and Old Bethel Community Outreach food pantry. Program Highlights and Impact - In 2012, 1,000 people benefited from Indy Urban Acres produce. The amount of fruits and vegetables generated by the farm and donated to Gleaners totaled 35,619 pounds. - To learn about gardening and the importance of good nutrition, 1,000 children from the Indy Parks summer program visited Indy Urban Acres in 2012. - The food pantry at IPS #14 serves 40-50 families each week. The produce from Indy Urban Acres helps provide fresh fruits and vegetables and expand the pantry's food supply, making it possible to better serve everyone who visits each week. Food pantry patrons enjoy sharing their recipes of dishes that use fresh produce. 500 Festival Education Program The 500 Festival Education Program, which took place at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway over nine days in April and May, offered nearly 11,000 Hoosier fourth graders the opportunity to receive hands on learning about IndyCar, the Indianapolis 500 and the sport of auto racing. As part of IU Health's title sponsorship, participating students were given the opportunity to learn about healthy eating and living habits, and work out with an IndyCar driver (#27 James Hinchcliffe) via a pre-recorded, interactive video with live facilitation by IU Health team member volunteers. Expanding access to healthcare Poverty, unemployment and other economic and social indicators often make it difficult for people to access healthcare. The limited availability of low-cost care options, such as federally qualified health centers and free clinics, also contributes to poor access to healthcare. IU Health invests in programs and services targeted to improve access to healthcare for underserved populations. IU Health Neighborhood Care Center The goal of the IU Health Neighborhood Care Center is to develop a model that might be implemented in other communities served by IU Health to improve access to healthcare for Hoosiers. The center also was conceived as a way to help decrease the number of people using area emergency departments for treatment of common illnesses and conditions that can be most affordably handled at primary care offices. Launched as a pilot project, the IU Health Neighborhood Care Center is a collaboration with Barnes United Methodist Church, IUSOM, Butler University Physician Assistant Program, Butler University College of Pharmacy and Timmy Global Health. Program Highlights and Impact - Between September and December 2012, more than 150 people visited the care center to receive free flu vaccinations. In addition, nearly 50 body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure screenings were performed. - In September 2012, free flu shots were offered at the care center for neighbors in the United Northwest area. |
| Part III, Line 4a (Continued) | Statement of Program Service Accomplishments | Preventing injuries Injuries are one of the leading causes of hospitalization and the need for medical care. IU Health helps prevent injuries by focusing on education and community outreach in key areas, such as falls prevention for older adults and bike helmet and child seat safety for children. Falls Prevention for Older Adults Each year, one in three adults age 65 and older experiences a fall. In 2012, falls were responsible for nearly 8,000 visits to IU Health emergency departments across the state. IU Health strives to reduce the number of injuries due to falls among the older adult population by offering two unique programs. A Matter of Balance Sponsored by IU Health, "A Matter of Balance" is an award-winning program designed to reduce falling and increase the activity levels of older adults who are at risk of falling. Program participants learn to alter their environment to reduce risk factors of falling, increase activity and improve strength and balance. Program Highlights and Impact - Six "A Matter of Balance" classes were conducted in 2012 with 84 total participants. - Ninety-eight percent of participants would recommend "A Matter of Balance" to others. Safe at Home In 2012 IU Health partnered with CICOA Aging & In-Home Solutions and other area agencies on aging to conduct Safe at Home, a half-day event to assist older adults in making their homes safe and accessible for daily living. Program Highlights and Impact - Five hundred IU Health and other community volunteers made simple home modifications, such as installing bathroom grab bars, building ramps and repairing stairs to help decrease risk of accidents in the home. - During the October event, 128 seniors in seven IU Health communities across Indiana benefited from Safe at Home. Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health Safety Store Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health helps Hoosier parents keep their children safe through injury prevention education and the sale of low-cost child safety products at the hospital's safety store. Riley opened its first safety store in its downtown Indianapolis hospital more than 10 years ago, and today there are Riley Safety Stores at IU Health Tipton Hospital, IU Health West Hospital, and IU Health Bloomington Hospital. Trained educators at each store help meet each family's needs by showing them how to install and use safety products. The affordable safety products stocked at the store range from bath, electrical and fire safety devices to gates, locks and latches. Enhancing childhood education Education plays a crucial role in health outcomes. Level of education has an impact not only on personal health, but it has multigenerational implications as well. Children with a solid educational foundation and parents who are involved in their education are more likely to embrace healthy lifestyles and habits and succeed generally in life. Additionally, research from The National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education shows that greater educational attainment is associated with health-promoting behaviors, such as increased consumption of fruits and vegetables and other aspects of healthy eating; engaging in physical activity and refraining from smoking. Realizing that educational disparities appear early, IU Health is committed to enhancing childhood education to improve health and lifelong quality of life. Kindergarten Countdown As one of IU Health's signature programs and a collaboration with United Way, Kindergarten Countdown helps hundreds of soon-to-be kindergartners improve their readiness for school. In addition to providing health screenings and vaccinations to students, the program offers assistance to parents in registering their kindergartners for school. Kindergarten Countdown summer camps are designed to provide at-risk youngsters the basic skills they need to succeed in their first year of school. With support from IU Health, Kindergarten Countdown has expanded to 10 communities across Indiana. Program Highlights and Impact - Kindergarten Countdown improved the school readiness of 400 children in 2012. - Campers achieved a 19 percent increase in Get Ready to Read scores from baseline testing conducted at the beginning of camp. - In 2012 ReadUP Reader was introduced in Marion County. Targeting underserved preschools, this program provides daily "reading buddies" to preschool children in an effort to strengthen early reading and comprehension skills. Revitalizing communities Good health and quality of life thrive in strong, vibrant communities. To help ensure continuous improvement in communities across Indiana, IU Health participates in and sponsors revitalization projects. |
| Part III, Line 4a (Continued) | Statement of Program Service Accomplishments | 2012 Day of Service As an opportunity to give back to the community, more than 2,200 IU Health team member volunteers across the state built Habitat for Humanity home panels during the system-wide "Day of Service" in May 2012. As a result, 25 homes were built, impacting the lives of 100 people in Indiana. Four of the homes were given to victims of the devastating 2012 tornado in Henryville, Ind. Strength That Cares IU Health is committed to serving people both inside its facilities and within the wider community. Strength That Cares, IU Health's team member volunteer program, was created to positively impact the health of the community and foster a culture of engagement and social responsibility among team members. With a membership of more than 10,600 IU Health team members, Strength That Cares is a statewide initiative with ongoing community service projects in areas served by IU Health facilities. Coppin Community Park As part of the Strength That Cares initiative, IU Health collaborated with Near North Development Corporation to turn four lots into a community park. The area is now a pocket park with landscaping, picnic benches and a walking trail. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day As part of the annual celebration honoring Martin Luther King, Jr., IU Health partnered with Kids Against Hunger for a 20,000 Meal Marathon Event. IU Health Strength That Cares volunteer teams packaged 20,000 meals for malnourished and underserved children and families across the United States. Lunches for Ronald McDonald House Families The IU Health Engagement & Public Affairs division prepared and served three weeks of meals to families staying at the Ronald McDonald House at Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health. The fun, team-building activity helped ensure these families received healthy, home-cooked meals during a time of stress. Academic Health Center IU Health Methodist Hospital Founded in 1908, IU Health Methodist Hospital is a national and regional healthcare leader with a long-standing tradition of preeminent patient care and clinical excellence. For more than 10 consecutive years, IU Health Methodist Hospital has been ranked among the top 50 hospitals nationally in U.S.News & World Report's "America's Best Hospitals" guide. IU Health Methodist Hospital hosts one of the largest critical care departments in the nation and is one of only two adult Level One Trauma Centers in Indiana. The hospital is home to a number of award-winning clinical programs, including cardiovascular, transplant and neuroscience. The Fairbanks Center for Medical Ethics - one of the few clinically based medical ethics centers in the U.S. - also is housed at IU Health Methodist Hospital. With a primary focus on improving the ethical lives of healthcare practitioners, the Fairbanks Center, with its robust programs, directly impacts IU Health and the central Indiana community through interdisciplinary collaboration in ethics consultation, education, research and service. 2012 Community Benefits Highlights - IU Health Methodist Hospital provides a 24-hour nurse line staffed by specially trained registered nurses who assess each caller's needs and advise appropriate care. In 2012, more than 3,000 community members received assistance from this IU Health service. - In 2012, IU Health Methodist Hospital provided quality healthcare at no cost to more than 44,000 patients in need of care. - In partnership with Recycle Force, IU Health Methodist Hospital hosted a rush-hour recycling event in November 2012.

| Part VI, Section B - Policies | Line 15 - Process for Determining Compensation | 1. The Board of Directors has established a Committee on Personnel and Compensation. The individuals on this Committee are made up of individuals who are on the Board and who do not have a conflict of interest with Indiana University Health, Inc. ("IU Health"). There are no physicians or employees on this Committee. This Committee develops and reviews annually the executive compensation philosophy, market analysis as to comparability and reasonableness. One of the purposes of this Committee is to review, approve and make recommendations regarding executive compensation and benefits to the IU Health Board. As deemed appropriate, this Committee also reviews the same detail with the Committee on Finance. The Committee on Finance is represented by certain members of the Board as well. 2. Each year the Committee on Personnel and Compensation engages an outside compensation consulting firm to conduct a compensation and benefits study for all senior vice presidents and above. The current compensation advisor is the Hay Group. Hay Group performs an independent compensation survey. The relevant comparability data includes: compensation and benefit levels paid by similarly situated organizations (both governmental and tax exempt) for functionally comparable positions as well as the availability of similar services in the geographic area. The Committee reviews the entire compensation package including: base compensation, short term and long term incentive plans, basic health and welfare benefits, qualified and nonqualified plans as well as any additional fringe benefits. Further, Hay Group will provide recommendations based upon the reasonable compensation information as it relates to salary increases, bonuses and benefits that are consistent with the compensation philosophy of the Committee. A separate analysis using the same methodology is done for the Chief Executive Officer. 3. The Committee reviews the salary survey and, if appropriate, makes recommendations on increases in salary and any changes in bonuses or benefits. The Committee's goal is to ensure that the total compensation and benefits package is reasonable based upon the independent data provided by Hay Group. The Committee votes on any changes in compensation or benefits. This review, discussion and vote are documented in the minutes for the meeting. There are no executives present during the final discussion and approval of compensation. 4. The Board reviews the report prepared by the Hay Group as well as the recommendations of the Committee on Personnel and Compensation as to changes in compensation approved by the Committee. As requested, the Committee on Finance also provides its review of recommendations on changes in executive compensation and benefits. This review, discussion and vote are documented in the minutes. 5. The Board then reviews the recommendations provided by the Committee on Personnel and Compensation and votes on the changes as well. No additional compensation or benefits are paid to the executives until the changes have been approved by the Committee and the Board. The discussion and approval are documented in the minutes of the meeting. There are no executives present during the final discussion and approval of compensation. The General Counsel prepares a formal written opinion reviewing the compensation and benefits approval process, comparing that process to the Intermediate Sanctions Test of IRC Section 4958 and, if the facts warrant, provides comments regarding the compensation and benefits approval process as this relates to meeting the requirements for a rebuttable presumption of reasonableness as provided in the Intermediate Sanctions Test. 6. After the end of each year, the Committee and Board also reviews the achievements of the executive group as it relates to the long-term and short-term shared and individual goals developed by the executive and the Board. These achievements may also be reviewed with the Committee on Finance. The Board, at its discretion, may approve bonus payments based upon the achievement of the goals and the compensation survey. The discussion and vote of the Committee and Board is documented in the minutes for each such meeting. The bonuses are not paid until approval is made by the Board. 7. The Committee on Personnel and Compensation and Audit Committee also review the required Form 990 disclosures related to executive compensation and benefits as well as compensation practices and approval processes prior to the filing of the Form 990 return with the Internal Revenue Service. |
