Identifier ReturnReference Explanation
SCHEDULE H, PART II COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES   Community Support - WMHS has in place a disaster readiness program. As the largest hospital in the area and the largest employer, WMHS has incurred costs to be able to deal with a disaster if the need arises. Coalition building - WMHS works with community partners to improve the health in the community. Education programs, screenings, and various other events are conducted by WMHS. Workforce development - WMHS is actively involved in the recruitment of physicians and other health professionals for the federally medical underserved area through a collaboration with regional partners.
SCHEDULE H, PART III BAD DEBT EXPENSE, LINE 4   Bad debt expenses are for those services rendered to patients who have been determined to have the financial capacity, but are unwilling to pay. The total expense is write-offs, made after following the provisions of the hospital's collection and write-off policy, less bad debt recoveries. An estimate of the amount of charity care attributable to patients who likely would qualify for financial assistance under the hospital's charity care policy, if sufficient information was available to make a determination of their eligibility, is based upon a review of records of patients who had accounts written off. WMHS has an audit of its financial statements prepared. The community benefits amount shown in Schedule H - Part I do not include bad debt expense.
SCHEDULE H, PART III SECTION B MEDICARE, LINE 8   Maryland's regulatory system creates a unique process for hospital payment that differs from the rest of the nation. The Health Services Court Review Commission ("HSCRC") determines payment through a rate setting process and all payors, including governmental payors, pay the same amount for the same services delivered at the same hospital. Maryland's unique all payor system includes a method for referencing Uncompensated Care in each payors' rates, which does not enable Maryland hospitals to breakout any offsetting revenue related to Uncompensated Care.
SCHEDULE H, PART III SECTION B MEDICARE LINE 8, COSTING METHODOLOGY Cost to charge ratio.
SCHEDULE H, PART III SECTION C COLLECTION PRACTICES, LINE 9B   - The Western Maryland Health System provides care to all patients seeking care, regardless of their ability to pay. A patient's ability to pay is based on a review which is done by a member of the Health System's Business Office. This review assures that all patients who seek emergency or urgent care receive those services regardless of the patient's ability to pay. -In accordance with Maryland law, the Western Maryland Health System has a financial assistance policy and patients may be entitled to receive financial assistance with the cost of medically necessary hospital services if they have a low income, do not have insurance, or their insurance does not cover medically-necessary hospital care. -The Western Maryland Health System meets or exceeds the state's legal requirement by providing financial assistance based on income established by and published by the Federal Government each year. -Those patients that meet the financial assistance policy criteria described above may receive assistance from the Health System in paying their bill. If a patient believes he has wrongly been referred to a collection agency, he has the right to contact the hospital to request assistance.
SCHEDULE H, PART V FACILITY INFORMATION COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT Line 1, Description Line 3, Persons Consulted Line 5c, Available to Public Utilizing the Association of Community Health Improvement Toolkit, WMHS compiled a list of desired data and potential sources. Raw data from the over 40 sources was compiled and put on a dashboard, along with additional narrative for analysis. A complete list of the source list can be found at: http://www.alleganyhealthplanningcoalition.com/pdf/AlleganyCoDataSourceLis t07_2011.pdf Management teams from both the WMHS and the Allegany County Health Department reviewed the raw data, narrative, and source list, to identify missing elements, raise questions, and begin analysis. Criteria to identify the most significant health issues included magnitude, severity compared to target and level of need for vulnerable populations. The need for transportation was unclear based on the secondary data, so a survey was created and distributed to patients in the emergency department, health department clinics, and Tri-State Community Health Center (FQHC). The results of the survey were added to the data. WMHS worked collaboratively with the health department to create a presentation utilizing the following framework: - Demographics- Characteristics of community and patients - Lifestyle choices and environment - Health needs & disease status - Access to care (payors & providers, barriers) The WMHS Community Advisory Board helped create a list of community organizations and focus groups to participate in the process. Between July and October 2011, the WMHS Director of Community Health & Wellness and a representative from the Allegany County Health Department, shared the process and results of community health needs assessment in a public forum and in sessions with over 20 groups including: - WMHS Board of Directors & Community Advisory Board - Workgroup on Access to Care - Local Drug and Alcohol Abuse Council - Local Management Board - Community Wellness Coalition - Western Maryland AHEC Board - School Health Council - Mental Health Advisory Board - Board of Health - Cumberland Ministerial Assn. - County United Way - Cumberland Housing Rental Advisory Board - Neighborhood Advisory Commission - Community Trust Foundation - Allied Health Students at Allegany College of Maryland After presenting the data, participants were asked to identify the top 5 priorities in rank order based on a list of 13 identified community health needs, taking into consideration: - Community capacity to act on issue (money, politics, culture) - Feasibility of having measurable impact on issue - Community resources already focused on issue - Issue is root cause of other problems The option to identify additional needs was made available, but none were suggested. Participants were also asked to identify potential partners for addressing these needs and any known barriers. To examine the connection between community health needs, social determinants and economic development, meetings were held with City and County Government officials and representatives identified by County Administrator--from transportation, housing, economic development, public safety, and GIS as well as with the Allegany County Chamber of Commerce Economic Development Committee. A nominal process was used to combine the various rankings from the groups into a final draft list of priorities. Tobacco use, obesity, access to care, emotional & mental health, and substance abuse, top the list of priorities identified by the community. In August 2011, WMHS and ACHD met to identify the proposed membership of the Allegany County Health Planning Coalition. By October, the Coalition was confirmed; members met with representatives from SHIP, established a vision and mission, and approved the organizational structure and priority list. Rather than create duplicative committees, the Allegany County Health Planning Coalition utilizes established workgroups and committees already functioning successfully in the community. Communication is maintained between these entities and the Coalition either by Coalition members who serve on the committees or designated staff from WMHS or ACHD. The operational structure of the Coalition is provided by targeted staff at the Allegany County Health Department and the Western Maryland Health System. Once the priority needs were finalized, representatives from WMHS and ACHD researched and compiled evidence base practices, current programs/services, and potential partnerships to address each priority. Service line leaders at WMHS were asked to review this information and recommend strategies to address the needs. Members of the Allegany County Health Planning Coalition did the same. Based on these recommendations, the WMHS Director of Community Health and Wellness and the ACHD Health Planner, compiled a draft action plan for each priority need. The draft action plan was reviewed and edited by WMHS service line leaders and System Management. In addition to the strategies in the Local Health Action Plan, WMHS identified several strategies to independently address the needs of the community. By December 31, 2011, the data sources, analysis, identified community priorities and implementation plan were posted for the public at: http://www.alleganyhealthplanningcoalition.com/and the WMHS website has a link to the site. For each of the priorities, there are overall strategies, actions, identified partners, progress measures and a timeframe. The WMHS Board of Directors approved the plan of action on January 26, 2012. From January - April 2012, commitments to the action plan and suggested improvements were obtained from the identified community organizations and workgroups. Either WMHS or ACHD was identified as the lead agency for all actions in the plan, and lead and support sources for all of the measures were identified. Progress on the strategic actions are assessed and reported every six months. The lead agencies report to the Coalition, and then the members rank the level of progress made. The average ranking is used and demonstrated with signal strength symbols ranging from 1 for no progress to 5 for excellent. Justification for the progress assessment can be found in the Coalition minutes. The Local Health Action Plan has a baseline measure and 2014 goal for each of the 13 priorities. When appropriate, these measures were linked to a SHIP measure. A dashboard that shows the status based on the percentage variance between the county baseline and state baseline for each goal is posted at: http:/www.alleganyhealthplanningcoalition.com/ , under Local Health Action Plan. This dashboard will be updated annually. Information about community health needs was sought from the Allegany County Health Officer and various public health experts at both the local health department and state health department. As noted in the prior section, there were numerous community organizations consulted in the process including: Local Drug and Alcohol Abuse Council, Community Wellness Coalition, Mental Health Advisory Board, Cumberland Ministerial Association, Cumberland Housing Rental Advisory Board, Neighborhood Advisory Commission, Community Trust Foundation, and Allied Health Students at Allegany College of Maryland. Many of these entities are actually groups of organizations involving representatives from diverse sub populations within the service area. For example, the Local Drug and Alcohol Abuse Council involves representatives from Department of Social Services, Department of Juvenile Services, Regional Parole & Probation, State's Attorney, District Public Defender-Allegany and Garrett Counties, County Sheriff, Administrative Judge of the Circuit Court, substance abuse provider, Consumer - Addictions Treatment, ACHD, MD State Police, Board of Education, Frostburg State University, Allegany College of MD, Allegany Radio Corporation, Salvation Army, Chessie Federal Credit Union, Community Unity in Action, Affected Newborn Program, Youth Representative. Individuals ranging from elected officials to residents of public housing have been engaged in the process. In addition to the over 25 groups with which we discussed the community health needs assessment and local health action plan, we engaged the members of the Allegany County Health Planning Coalition. In addition to WMHS and ACHD, Coalition members are from: - Allegany County Public Schools - Western Maryland Area Health Education Center - County United Way - Tri-State Community Health Center (FQHC) - Allegany County Human Resources Development Commission It is the role of the Allegany County Health Planning Coalition to coordinate the strategic actions among community groups. Coordination includes monitoring progress and promoting public education regarding community health status. WMHS is the co-leader of the Coalition.
SCHEDULE H, PART V FACILITY INFORMATION FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, Line 19 WMHS determines the maximum amounts that can be charged to the Financial Assistance Policy ("FAP") eligible individuals by using sliding scale tables based upon percentages of Federal Poverty Levels ("FPL").
SCHEDULE H, PART V FACILITY INFORMATION COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT, LINE 6I WMHS and the Allegany County Health Department conducted a community health assessment in the summer of 2011. A local health action plan was developed to address the top 13 priorities identified by the assessment. Rising to the top of the list of priorities were tobacco use, obesity, access to care, and emotional and mental health. The WMHS board approved the needs assessment and action plan on January 26, 2012.
SCHEDULE H, PART V FACILITY INFORMATION INDIVIDUALS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, LINE 21 Maryland's regulatory system creates a unique process for hospital payment that differs from the rest of the nation. The Health Services Cost Review Commission (HSCRC) determines payment through a rate setting process and all payors, including government payors, pay the same amount for the same services delivered at the same hospital. In accordance with Maryland law, the Western Maryland Health System has a financial assistance policy and patients may be entitled to receive financial assistance with the cost of medically necessary hospital services if they have a low income, do not have insurance, or their insurance does not cover medically-necessary hospital care.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE, LINE 3 Western Maryland Health System is committed to providing financial assistance to persons who have health care needs and are uninsured, underinsured, ineligible for a government program, or otherwise unable to pay, for medically necessary care based on their individual situation. A patient can qualify for Financial Assistance either through lack of sufficient insurance or financial hardship due to excessive medical debt. It is the policy of WMHS to provide Financial Assistance based on indigence or excessive medical debt for patients who meet specified financial criteria and request such assistance. WMHS will post notices of availability at patient registration sites, Admissions, Business Office and at the Emergency Department. Notice of availability will also be sent to patients on patient bill statements. A Patient Billing and Financial Assistance Information Sheet will be provided to inpatients via the Admission Handbook given to every admitted patient. This is provided to patients prior to discharge and is also available to all patients upon request.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION COMMUNITY INFORMATION, LINE 4 WMHS provides primary and secondary acute care services for a six county region covering the Upper Potomac region of Maryland, Eastern West Virginia and Southwestern Pennsylvania. With almost 87% of the patients residing in either Allegany County, Maryland (72.5%) or mineral county, West Virginia (13.94%), WMHS considers these communities its Community Benefit Service Area.

Officers and Trustees Business Relationships Part VI, Line 2 Michele R. Martz (Key Employee) serves on the Board of the United Way of the Potomac Highlands of which Mary Beth Pirolozzi (Trustee) is the Executive Director. M. Kathryn Burkey (Trustee) serves on the Board of First United Corporation and First United Bank and Trust, of which Frederick Thayer (trustee) is a Senior Vice president.
Form 990 Governing Body Review Part VI, Line 11 On an annual basis, the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors meets to review IRS Form 990 and 990T before it is filed with the Internal Revenue Service. The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) presents an executive summary and then provides a detailed review and explanation of each form. Any open items or questions are resolved prior to the filing of the form. Subsequent to its review, the Executive Committee reports back to the Board regarding its oversight of the Form 990. The board is informed that a complete copy of the Form 990 is available on the board's secure password protected web site.
Conflict of Interest Policy Compliance Part VI, Line 12c The WMHS Board of Directors monitors proposed or ongoing transactions for conflicts of interest and addresses any potential or actual conflicts. Pursuant to the Conflicts of Interest Policy, an annual conflict questionnaire is distributed to all interested persons. Interested persons are required to disclose real or potential conflicts at the time when such conflicts arise. When one becomes an interested person and annually thereafter, they are required to sign a statement affirming that they have received, read, understand, and agree to comply with the policy. The completed questionnaires are reviewed by the Board. The procedures for addressing any conflict include the conflict being fully disclosed and discussed with the interested person along with the potential resolutions of the conflict.
Process for Determining Compensation Part VI, Line 15a & 15b The Board appoints a Compensation Committee of independent directors without a conflict of interest with respect to the compensation arrangement, responsible for setting reasonable compensation packages for each officer or key employee, including the CEO. The Committee develops, consistent with organizational philosophy and principle, the annual performance goals and criteria to be used in determining merit increases and variable compensation. The Committee also hires an independent compensation and benefits specialist to review, analyze and provide benchmarking data for the total compensation and benefits packages. Comparability data is obtained for similar job responsibilities. Written records of all analyses are maintained to support decisions related to key employees and officers.
Availability of Governing Documents to Public Part VI Line 19 While the federal tax laws do not mandate that the organization's governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements be made available for public inspection, the organization makes its financial statements available upon request. In Maryland, the organization's financial statements are also submitted to the Health Services Cost Review Commission which is available for public inspection as well.

Community Health Assessment   The Western Maryland Health System is committed to improving the health of the citizens we serve and is a founding member of the Allegany County Health Planning Coalition. This is a group of community partners working together for a healthier community. WMHS and the Allegany County Health Department conducted a community health assessment in the summer of 2011. A local health action plan was developed to address the top 13 priorities identified by the assessment. Rising to the top of the list of priorities were tobacco use, obesity, access to care, and emotional and mental health. The statistical information compiled about the health status of the County and a summary of community health needs are available at www.alleganyhealthplanningcoalition.com. Actions to address each of the top 13 priorities are on the site as well. "These action plans are designed to engage everyone in the community, including businesses, churches, civic organizations, and individuals," explains Nancy Forlifer, Director of Community Health and Wellness at WMHS. "The strategies range from education about making healthier choices on a personal level to implementation of public policy changes that promote better health." The Coalition meets monthly and the public is welcome to attend the meetings, which are held at the Allegany County Health Department on Willowbrook Road. The meeting schedule and the minutes from the meetings are available on the website. Members of the Allegany County Health Planning Coalition include the Allegany County Health Department, WMHS, Allegany County Board of Education, County United Way, Tri-State Community Health Center, and the Western Maryland Area Health Education Center.
