| COMMUNITY BENEFIT STATEMENT CONT'D | CORE FORM, PART III; STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAMS ================================= The Community Education & Outreach Program delivers low-cost and free lectures, health screenings, and special events for a service area comprising parts of Mercer, Middlesex, and Somerset Counties. They offer a dynamic curriculum of innovative health and lifestyle-related programming, screenings and support at little or no cost to the communities we serve. Princeton HealthCare System is dedicated to promoting healthy living at every stage of life and to enhancing quality of life by addressing the unique needs of women, men, seniors, children, adolescents and diverse populations. Special outreach efforts have been directed to the Latino, Indian-American, African-American, Chinese and Korean-American communities. The System is also involved with partnerships with the Princeton, Hopewell Valley, West Windsor, Plainsboro and Montgomery Regional School Districts for childhood and adolescent health issues including underage drinking, smoking and eating disorders. Other program venues include area senior centers, public libraries, community centers, YMCA's and YWCA's. In 2012, Community Education & Outreach provided 1154 programs to 43,500 participants. Total monies spent less payments received on Community Education for 2012 was $690,000. Provider Taxes All New Jersey acute care hospitals are required to pay a percentage of their total operating revenue to the Department of Health for deposit into the Health Care Subsidy Fund. We also pay the State of New Jersey an adjusted admission fee. In 2012 PHCS paid a total of $1,611,216 to the State of New Jersey for these assessments. Assistance Provided to Patients without Insurance PHCS provides emergent care irrespective of a patient's ability to pay. Often a patient requires follow-up care after hospitalization and encounter disposition/access problems because of no insurance coverage. PHCS often pays for these needed services. In 2012 PHCS paid other healthcare providers $5,000 for such services until alternative coverage could be obtained or care was not longer indicated. Medical Education Princeton HealthCare System has a long standing relationship with the Rutgers New Jersey Medical School to provide training for medical residents and students. PHCS trained the equivalent of 37 full time medical and surgical residents. The direct costs associated with these programs in 2012 approximated $5.9 million dollars, which was partially offset by Medicare and Medicaid funds of $4.9 million dollars, resulting in a shortfall of $1 million dollars. This shortfall excludes allocated overhead costs of $1.9 million. Also, PHCS is actively involved in the training of approximately 50 medical students a year for which it receives no reimbursement. PHCS is also committed to support the education and training of nursing students. PHCS has long standing affiliation agreements with The College of New Jersey, Rutgers University, Mercer County Community College, and St. Francis School of Nursing to provide training experiences for their nursing students. In 2012, there were 159 students with a total of 848 clinical rotations throughout PHCS. Charity Care PHCS provides care to patients who meet certain criteria defined by the New Jersey Department of Health without charge or at amounts less than its established rates. Because PHCS does not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as charity care, they are not reported as revenue. PHCS's records identify and monitor the level of charity care it provides and the amount of charges foregone for services and supplies furnished. Charges foregone for charity care during 2012 were approximately $55,532,000. This amount is higher than the amount reported in the audited financial statements because many patients subsequently qualified for charity care. The full costs (less some minor payments) associated to provide charity care approximated $12,900,000. DHSS charity care guidelines require participation and specific documentation of the patient in order to be identified as a charity care account. Management believes that the present charity care guidelines understate PHCS's charity care amounts and overstate the level of bad debts reported, because of the difficulties involved with obtaining patient participation and specific documentation. The New Jersey Health Care Subsidy Fund ("HCSF") was established for various purposes including the distribution of charity care payments to hospitals statewide. In 2012, PHCS received subsidy amounts of $1,416,000 which are included in net patient service revenue. Additionally, the State of New Jersey has established a Mental Health Subsidy Fund to pay for specific behavioral health services. In 2012 and 2011, PHCS received $1,257,000 for this program. Since the State created a Mental Health Subsidy Fund in recognition of the need to support Short Term Care Facility (STCF) and Child Community Inpatient Services (CCIS) beds. This fund is not specifically targeted to underfunding related to Charity Care and Medicaid patients but for all patients in need of these services. Approximately 54 percent of Princeton House's STCF days are Charity Care or Medicaid. The charity care provided above is only that reported to DHSS. PHCS does not submit claims to DHSS for qualified patients (financially indigent meeting poverty guidelines) relating to uncovered services such as behavioral health services. In 2012 PHCS provided inpatient behavioral health services to 55 patients that were hospitalized a total of 648 days and $306,055 of direct costs to uninsured patients that would normally meet DHSS financial criteria. Governmental Shortfalls PHCS participates with all governmental programs including but not limited to Medicare, Medicaid, Champus, etc. In 2012 PHCS received approximately $88.7 million dollars from the Medicare program. The costs associated with these revenues in accordance with Medicare rules and reported on the Medicare cost report was $115.2 million, resulting in a shortfall of $26.4 million or 23 percent. In 2012, PHCS received approximately $9.3 million dollars from the Medicaid and Medicaid managed care programs. The costs associated with these revenues in accordance with Medicare rules were $16.7 million, resulting in a shortfall of $7.4 million or 44 percent. |

THIS FILING ORGANIZATION ITSELF HAS NO PAID SENIOR MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL RECEIVING COMPENSATION DIRECTLY FROM THIS ORGANIZATION. RATHER, KEY SENIOR MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL, INCLUDING but not limited to THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, ARE EMPLOYED BY PHCS, THE TAX-EXEMPT HOSPITAL WITHIN THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. HOWEVER, THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF THESE INDIVIDUALS ARE SHOWN ON THIS TAX RETURN BECAUSE THEY ARE ALSO EITHER OFFICERS OR BOARD MEMBERS OF THIS ORGANIZATION.

THE AUTHORIZED BODY OBTAINED AND RELIED UPON "APPROPRIATE DATA AS TO COMPARABILITY" PRIOR TO MAKING ITS DETERMINATION; AND 3.
