Identifier Return Reference Explanation
FIN 48 (ASC 740) PART X, QUESTION 2 The organization follows the FIN 48 policy of Via Christi Health, Inc. (VCH) and the policy is provided in the VCH consolidated audited financial statements. With the exception of certain subsidiaries, all of the entities in the Health System are organizations under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and are generally exempt from payment of income taxes on related income pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Subsidiaries which are for-profit organizations are subject to federal and state income taxes. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require the Health System's management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Health System and its subsidiaries and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if an uncertain position has been taken that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management has analyzed the tax positions by the Health System and its subsidiaries, and has concluded that as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, there were no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. Tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Income tax expense or benefit is included in other nonoperating gains and losses in the consolidated statements of operations and changes in net assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Identifier ReturnReference Explanation
Annual Community Benefit Report Part I, Question 6b A community benefit update that includes Wamego Hospital Association Inc. data is printed in the Via Christi Health's annual report which is released in various formats to the public and available from the Via Christi Health's website at www.viachristi.org/about-us or upon request. In addition, Wamego makes public presentations when invited on the findings of the latest health needs assessment. Wamego and Mercy Regional Health Center's (MRHC) community benefit summary is prepared and printed in "Up Close," a magazine printed with 2,400 copies distributed to surrounding communities of Clay Center, Manhattan and Wamego. "Up Close" is also available on MRHC's website at www.mercyregional.org.
Community Benefit Programs Part I, Question 7 For examples of some of the community benefit programs provided by Wamego Hospital Association Inc. and Mercy Regional Health Center, a combined report is included with the Schedule O footnote for Part III Statement of Program Services.
Audit Footnote on Bad Debt Expense Part III, Section A, Question 4 The provision for bad debt expense is based upon management's assessment of expected net collections considering economic conditions, historical experience, trends in health care coverage, and other collection indicators. Periodically throughout the year, management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon historical write-off experience by payer category, including those amounts not covered by insurance. The results of this review are then used to make any modifications to the provision for bad debt expense to establish an appropriate allowance for uncollectible accounts. After satisfaction of amounts due from insurance and reasonable efforts to collect from the patient have been exhausted, Wamego Hospital Association Inc. (WHA) follows established guidelines for placing certain past-due patient balances with collection agencies, subject to terms of certain restrictions on collection efforts as determined by the WHA. Accounts receivable are written off after collections efforts have been followed in accordance with the WHA's policies. WHA reports bad debts in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Healthcare Financial Management Statement 15 is followed to the extent that it aligns with the guidelines set forth by GAAP. Bad debt expense at cost is determined using the same cost-to-charge ratio that is used for charity care and Medicaid shortfall. WHA follows the guidance from CHA and does not consider bad debt as a community benefit.
Medicare Shortfall Part III, Section B, Question 8 Wamego Hospital Association Inc. follows the CHA guidelines regarding Medicare and does not include it as community benefit.
Debt Collection Policy Part III, Section C, Question 9b It is the policy of Wamego Hospital Association Inc. (WHA) to promote socially just practices for billing and collections for all patients receiving care. The policy is intended to further the WHA mission by requiring ethical conduct in billing and collecting self-pay balances from patient/guarantor's regardless of ability to pay. The policy ensures that prior to turning an account to a Third Party Collection Agent (Agent) for collection activity, WHA will perform a reasonable review of each account to verify that the patient/guarantor is not potentially eligible for any government assistance program (e.g., Medicaid, Medicare, etc.) and would likely not qualify for charity care. WHA will direct its staff and Agents to periodically assess each patient/guarantor's ability to pay or to determine eligibility for charity care. The review and assessment should include but may not be limited to the following: a. Ensure the patient/guarantor has been notified of WHA's financial assistance policy; b. Ensure the patient/guarantor was offered a financial assistance application; c. Ensure documentation of any known extraordinary financial circumstances of the patient/guarantor or if they are medically indigent.
PART V   WAMEGO HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION INC. OPERATES A FULL SERVICE HOSPITAL THAT INCLUDES LABORATORY, RADIOLOGY AND PHYSICAL/OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY DEPARTMENTS ALONG WITH CT AND MRI SERVICES. WAMEGO HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ALSO PROVIDES 24 HOUR ON CALL EMERGENCY SERVICES. WAMEGO FAMILY HEALTHCARE CLINIC PROVIDES WELLNESS CHECKUPS, PHYSICALS AND IMMUNIZATIONS.
NEEDS ASSESSMENT Part VI, Question 2 Ministry representatives are involved with numerous coalitions that periodically assess community needs (e.g. Flint Hills Community Clinic, Kansas Health Care Collaborative, United Way of Riley County, Shepherds' Crossing and others) and in FY2011 conducted their own health assessment. Secondary data, other community assessments and one-on-one interviews with community leaders, social service providers, health care providers and government representatives are used to conduct the assessments.
PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE Part VI, Question 3 Wamego Hospital Association Inc. (WHA) financial assistance staff is trained on how to qualify patients for Medicaid, SCHIP, and other such income-based programs. During the patient's registration, admissions, and discharge processes, WHA attempts to identify patients who may be eligible for charity or discounted care through the charity care policy. In addition, WHA uses a percentage of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) to determine free and discounted care.
COMMUNITY INFORMATION Part VI, Question 4 The primary counties for Manhattan ministries include Riley, Geary and Pottawatomie. Riley County has a land area of 610 square miles with a 2011 estimated population of 72,997. Pottawatomie County has a land area of 841 square miles with a 2011 estimated population of 21,920. Geary County has a land area of 385 square miles with a 2011 estimated population of 35,323. Riley County's population demographic includes: 85.0% white, 6.6% Black, 0.7% American Indian, 4.2% Asian and 7.0% persons of Hispanic or Latino origin. The diversity of the population in Riley County is greater than for Pottawatomie County. Racial breakout for Pottawatomie County includes: 94.6% white, 1.3% Black, 0.9% American Indian, 0.8% Asian persons, and 4.7% persons of Hispanic or Latino origin. The demographic distribution for Geary County includes: 70.2% white, 18.4% Black, 1.2% American Indian, 3.4% Asian and 13.1% Hispanic or Latino origin. Geary County has the highest diversity rates primarily due to Fort Riley, an Army base and Home of the 1st Infantry Division. Almost 8.5% of the Riley County residents, 4.5% of the Pottawatomie County residents and 13.0% of the Geary County residents report that a language other than English is spoken at home. When it comes to education, 95.3% of Riley County residents completed high school and 45.6% had a bachelor's degree or higher. This compares to 93.2% and 29.7% for Pottawatomie County and 91.3% and 19.9% for Geary County. Median household income for Riley County residents between 2007 and 2011 was $41,427 compared to $54,309 for Pottawatomie County and $45,649 for Geary County. During this same time period, the median value of owner-occupied housing units in Riley County was $164,500 compared to $148,200 in Pottawatomie and $122,000 for Geary County residents. Riley County reports 23.6% of its residents are below poverty level compared to 6.8% for Pottawatomie and 12.5% for Geary County. The Statewide poverty level is around 12.6%. Riley County has far fewer residents age 65 years and older compared to the State of Kansas and the other two counties. Kansas reported in 2011 that 13.3% of all residents were persons 65 years of age and older. This compares to 7.3% for Riley, 12.2% for Pottawatomie and 7.5% for Geary Counties. The City of Manhattan is home to Kansas State University which has a student enrollment of 23,810 for Spring 2013 semester. Mercy Regional Health Center (MRHC) is the only hospital in the City of Manhattan and is the largest full-service medical center in the area that is available to all persons regardless of their ability to pay. Wamego Hospital Association Inc. is the only hospital in the City of Wamego but is approximately 12 miles from MRHC should emergencies call for a full-service medical center.
PROMOTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH Part VI, Question 5 Wamego Hospital Association Inc. (WHA) enriches the community in which it operate as well as the broader community, improving medicine through educating physicians and other healthcare providers, and providing care and support to people in need. Wamego further supports this mission with a community board, open medical staff and an emergency room available to patients regardless of ability to pay. Community representation on the Governing Body - The Board of Trustees is the governing body of WHA. The majority of its members are external members comprised of persons who reside in or around the city of Wamego and they have overall responsibility for the charitable mission of the organization as set forth in its Articles of Incorporation and By Laws. These trustees are selected based on their expertise, experience and other criteria established by the nominating committee of the Board of Trustees. Areas of expertise and experience include such areas as healthcare, finance, education, and local government. The Board actively debates and sets policy and strategic direction for the ministry but does not get involved in issues related to daily operations. The Board takes a balanced approach when addressing community and business/financial concerns. The Board is also the primary group for determining the use of surplus funds generated by the organization which are reinvested in the ministry in order to allow the ministry to sustain its mission and prepare for the future. Open Medical Staff - The medical staff of WHA is an open medical staff and is composed of physicians, dentists and podiatrists licensed to practice medicine in the State of Kansas. Wamego staff also participates in the community on boards of other not-for-profit organizations, government entities, foundations, area colleges and university committees, state-wide coalitions, etc. Emergency Medical Services - WHA's EMS provides standby care for various community activities to ensure quick response of medical care should accidents occur during an event. In FY2012, Wamego provided assistance for the Riley County Rodeo; Thunder Over Manhattan; July 4th Celebrations; Juneteenth Celebrations; Alert Road Race; Job Corp Safethy Day; 4-H Discover Days; St Patrick's Day Road Race, Aggieville New Years Eve Celebration; KState Football; and Spooktacular. One Community Campaign - WHA's staff annually volunteer to coordinate the internal campaign which benefits United Way of Riley County. WHA staff serve as department ambassadors assisting with presentations, pledge card distribution and collection, hosting team meetings and learning about the various programs funded through the local United Way. Security Transport is a support service provided by WHA when patients are brought to the hospital emergency department but are in need of psychiatric placement but are unable to pay for transportation to get access to the facilities which are located outside of the Manhattan area. Most of these patients are transferred to Larned, Osawatomie, Kansas University Medical Center in Kansas City or other locations and the transportation costs would be exorbitant for those who are not covered by insurance or for families who may not have the resources to provide the needed transportation to other facilities. Over all, Mercy Regional Health Center and WHA combined community benefit programs (not counting unpaid reimbursement of Medicare or bad debt) accounted for $5.6 million to the geographical area of Manhattan and Wamego, Kansas for FY2012.
AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM Part VI, Question 6 Wamego Hospital Association Inc. is an affiliate of Via Christi Health, Inc (VCH). VCH's affiliates are large multi-faceted, integrated, not-for-profit ministries including Hospital and Non-Hospital ministries (Physician Group Practices, Hospital organizations, Research, Home Health, Durable Medical Equipment, and Senior Facilities). These ministries work together to care for patients, joined by common systems and a philosophy of serving as a healing presence with special concern for our neighbors especially those who are vulnerable. This community benefit happens through its focus on patient care, education, and research. The organizations work together to serve their communities at the local, regional and state level.
STATE FILING OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT Part VI, Question 7 Not Applicable - Kansas does not require hospitals to file community benefit reports but Via Christi Health, Inc. (other ministry's name) distributes our community benefit totals and activities annually in press releases as well as in our annual report.
PART I, QUESTION 3C   The Federal poverty guideline was used.
Community Building Activities Part II Community building activities are essential roles for health care organizations in that they address many of the underlying determinants of health. Research has consistently shown that when the socioeconomic factors influencing health are explored, health care actually plays a smaller role proportionately. A report in the Journal of American Medical Association and the Center for Disease Control suggests that the determinants impacting health are as follows: lifestyle and behaviors, 50%; environment, 20%; genetics and human biology, 20%; and health care, 10%. Community building activities help to address the other determinants outside of the role traditionally played by health care organizations. The hospital provides timely and specific resources to help community organizations through donations to fulfill their missions of improving the well-being of the community and contributing to its overall health status in ways that may differ from direct clinical services provided by the hospital. These activities are almost exclusively done in partnership with other community organizations which are better suited to address identified community needs. Listed below are just a few of the Community Building activities reported by our hospital during FY2012. This is not a complete listing but a sampling of how the hospital participates in the health of the community through its Community Building activities. Wamego Hospital Association (WHA) High School Mentoring Program - WHA staff are matched for four years with high school freshmen. The goal is to improve upon the Wamego High School graduation rates by matching community volunteers with incoming freshmen who will stay connected during their high school career with the same volunteer. By participating in this unique mentoring program, WHA employees are contributing to the success of WHA students and as a result, are improving the quality of life for all Wamego residents. Chamber of Commerce - WHA staff assists the Wamego Chamber through recruitment of volunteers to help support and execute events that is hosted for the community. Through the efforts of WHA, volunteers are recruited to help with Chamber fundraising and economic development activities as well as assist with various partnership projects that are held with other local not-for-profit organizations. This volunteer recruitment improves the health of the community because some of the new economic development activities include recruiting healthcare specialists to spend some time in the area to provide care for the rural residents.
Estimating Bad Debt Expense Part III, Section A, Question 3 The organization has no suitable basis for estimating bad debt expense that would be attributable to patients eligible under the organization's charity care policy.
Financial Assistance Policy Part V, Section B, Question 13g The full policy is not posted in each of these areas; however, reference to the policy is posted and the policy is immediately available to anyone who requests it.

Process for Determining Compensation Part VI, Section B, Questions 15a and 15b Wamego Hospital Association, Inc. uses the policies established by Via Christi Health, Inc. (VCH). VCH has established a common philosophy, strategy, and process for executive compensation. Through the oversight of the VCH Executive Compensation Committee, executive compensation is competitively positioned at its stated market position when compared to the compensation paid by relevant organizations (comparably-sized health systems, hospitals, and long-term care providers). VCH recognizes its responsibility to ensure that its executive compensation program is appropriate in view of its mission and tax-exempt status and that its compensation levels and expenditures are reasonable and not excessive. To ensure these ends, the VCH Executive Compensation Committee has established and approved the executive compensation philosophy for VCH and all related entities. It will also approve all changes in the compensation package for VCH executives in advance. On an annual basis, the Committee conducts a comprehensive review of total compensation for all executives. It also reviews and approves "off-cycle" compensation transactions as needed. In their review, the Committee considers the following factors: * Market data from independent compensation surveys and sources that reflect comparable positions in organizations of similar size and scope * Difficulties in recruiting and retaining executives * Skills, experience and performance history of individual executives * Critical business or strategic issues that the organization may face * Market position for total compensation The adequacy, competitiveness, and cost of the VCH total executive compensation program are reviewed on an ongoing basis and changes are made as the Committee determines appropriate. The executive compensation program will be maintained such that it will fall within the safe harbor guidelines established by the Intermediate Sanctions regulations. The Committee also employs the services of an independent compensation consultant to prepare market analysis to aid and support the Committee's actions, provide documentation of market trends for budget setting purposes, review annual compensation changes to ensure "reasonableness" and provide attestation, and provide consultation on all executive compensation issues. The Committee also relies on third-party validation of performance measures used in the determination of compensation.
How Documents are Made Available to the Public Part VI, Section C, Question 19 WAMEGO HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION'S GOVERNING DOCUMENTS AND CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY ARE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC UPON REQUEST.

RECONCILIATION OF NET ASSETS PART XI, QUESTION 5 UNREALIZED GAIN 29,883
Statement of Program Service Accomplishments Part III Wamego Hospital Association (WHA) is a member of Via Christi Health (VCH). As a Catholic health system, VCH has its origins in faith-based responses to health needs of our communities, with a particular concern for those living in poverty and who are vulnerable. In addition to typical inpatient and outpatient services, VCH operates primary care clinics, a low income neighborhood outreach clinic, specialty hospitals and centers, home medical services, therapy centers and long-term care villages. The obligation to reach out to those in need and to improve community health flows directly from VCH's identity as a faith-based healing ministry. VCH continues its tradition in providing community benefit because we are committed to: * Promoting and defending human dignity * Caring for persons living in poverty and other vulnerable populations * Promoting the common good * Stewarding resources responsibly According to the VCH' mission statement, "As a part of Via Christi Health, we share this Mission: Inspired by the Gospel and our Catholic tradition, we serve as a healing presence with special concern for our neighbors who are vulnerable." The financial information in this report was prepared in accordance with the Catholic Health Association's (CHA) A Guide for Planning and Reporting Community Benefit Guidelines. Per these Guidelines, we report the net expense for community benefit services, i.e., the total community benefit expense minus any associated revenue from patients, residents, payers, and other external sources. The CHA Guidelines reflect a conservative approach to reporting quantifiable community benefit. The goal of the Guidelines is to produce community benefit financial reports that reflect true costs and that describe community benefit activities that increase access to health care and improve community health for all. The following are WHA definitions for quantifiable community benefits reports below. Charity Care - Free or discounted health services provided to persons who cannot afford to pay and who meet VCH's criteria for financial assistance. Charity care is reported in terms of costs, not charges. Charity care does not include bad debt. Gov't Sponsored Means-Tested Health Care - Includes unpaid costs of public programs for low-income persons - the shortfall created when VCH receives payments that are less than the cost of caring for public program beneficiaries. This payment shortfall is not the same as a contractual allowance, which is the full difference between charges and government payments. Health Professions Education - Helping to prepare future health care professionals is a distinguishing characteristic of not-for-profit health care and constitutes a significant community benefit. This category includes programs and financial assistance for physicians and medical students, nurses and nursing students, interns and other health professionals. For fiscal year ended September 30, 2012: Community Benefit (WHA Inc.): 1. Charity care - at cost $0.06 million 2. Government sponsored health care - net expense $0.40 million Unpaid cost of public indigent care programs (includes Medicaid, SCHIP, other safety net programs; does not include Medicare shortfall) 3. Community Benefit Programs - net expense $0.06 million 4. Total Quantifiable Community Benefit $0.52 million Listed below are just a few of the community benefit programs offered by Wamego Hospital Association (WHA) during FY 2012. This is not a complete listing but a sampling of how the hospital gives back to the community while meeting current needs. WHA enriches the community in which it operate as well as the broader community, improving medicine through educating physicians and other healthcare providers, and providing care and support to people in need. Wamego further supports this mission with a community board, open medical staff and an emergency room available to patients regardless of ability to pay. Community representation on the Governing Body - The Board of Trustees is the governing body of WHA. The majority of its members are external members comprised of persons who reside in or around the city of Wamego and they have overall responsibility for the charitable mission of the organization as set forth in its Articles of Incorporation and By Laws. These trustees are selected based on their expertise, experience and other criteria established by the nominating committee of the Board of Trustees. Areas of expertise and experience include such areas as healthcare, finance, education, and local government. The Board actively debates and sets policy and strategic direction for the ministry but does not get involved in issues related to daily operations. The Board takes a balanced approach when addressing community and business/financial concerns. The Board is also the primary group for determining the use of surplus funds generated by the organization which are reinvested in the ministry in order to allow the ministry to sustain its mission and prepare for the future. Open Medical Staff - The medical staff of WHA is an open medical staff and is composed of physicians, dentists and podiatrists licensed to practice medicine in the State of Kansas. Wamego staff also participates in the community on boards of other not-for-profit organizations, government entities, foundations, area colleges and university committees, state-wide coalitions, etc. Emergency Medical Services - WHA's EMS provides standby care for various community activities to ensure quick response of medical care should accidents occur during an event. In FY2012, Wamego provided assistance for the Riley County Rodeo; Thunder Over Manhattan; July 4th Celebrations; Juneteenth Celebrations; Alert Road Race; Job Corp Safety Day; 4-H Discover Days; St Patrick's Day Road Race, Aggieville New Year's Eve Celebration; K-State Football; and Spooktacular. One Community Campaign - WHA's staff annually volunteer to coordinate the internal campaign which benefits United Way of Riley County. Staff at WHA serve as department ambassadors assisting with presentations, pledge card distribution and collection, hosting team meetings and learning about the various programs funded through the local United Way. Security Transport is a support service provided by WHA when patients are brought to the hospital emergency department but are in need of psychiatric placement but are unable to pay for transportation to get access to the facilities which are located outside of the Manhattan area. Most of these patients are transferred to Larned, Osawatomie, Kansas University Medical Center in Kansas City or other locations and the transportation costs would be exorbitant for those who are not covered by insurance or for families who may not have the resources to provide the needed transportation to other facilities. High School Mentoring Program - WHA staff are matched for four years with high school freshmen. The goal is to improve upon the Wamego High School graduation rates by matching community volunteers with incoming freshmen who will stay connected during their high school career with the same volunteer. By participating in this unique mentoring program, WHA employees are contributing to the success of WHA students and as a result, are improving the quality of life for all Wamego residents. Chamber of Commerce - WHA staff assists the Wamego Chamber through recruitment of volunteers to help support and execute events that is hosted for the community. Through the efforts of WHA, volunteers are recruited to help with Chamber fundraising and economic development activities as well as assist with various partnership projects that are held with other local not-for-profit organizations. This volunteer recruitment improves the health of the community because some of the new economic development activities include recruiting healthcare specialists to spend some time in the area to provide care for the rural residents.
