THE CHRISTUS HEALTH BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED FUNDING OF A COMMUNITY DIRECT INVESTMENT (CDI) LOAN PROGRAM TO ENSURE THAT THE WORK OF SOCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND MORAL AND ETHICAL STEWARDSHIP CONTINUES IN SPITE OF CHALLENGING FISCAL CONDITIONS FACED BY LOCAL OPERATING ENTITIES.

REPORTED AT SCHEDULE H, PART II, LINE 3 "COMMUNITY SUPPORT" IS THE INCOME EARNED AT THE MARKET RATE LESS OUR LOAN RATE (FOREGONE INCOME), WHICH IS CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR REPORTING PURPOSES. THOUGH OUTSTANDING LOAN BALANCES VARY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, THE OUTSTANDING LOAN BALANCE AT THE END OF FISCAL YEAR 2013 WAS $1,631,224. THE FOREGONE INTEREST FOR CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA IN FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2013 WAS $44,856. THE CHRISTUS HEALTH ADVOCACY DEPARTMENT IS WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL POLICY MAKERS TO ENSURE ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAMS ARE IN PLACE THAT WILL ENHANCE PUBLIC HEALTH AND ADVANCE GENERAL KNOWLEDGE. ADVOCACY EFFORTS FOCUS ON THE NEEDS OF CHILDREN, INCLUDING SCHOOL-BASED HEALTH CENTERS AND SENIORS, AS WELL AS OTHER VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. THE EFFORTS ARE PROMOTING PROGRAMS SUCH AS HEALTH SCREENINGS AND EDUCATION FOR EARLY DETECTION OF CANCER AND HEART DISEASE, DIABETES AND IMMUNIZATIONS.
Bad Debt Reporting in Accordance with HFMA Statement 15	Part III, Section A, Line 1	CHRISTUS Health follows in principle Healthcare Financial Management Association Statement No. 15. The system has adopted an uncompensated care policy where revenue from services provided to the uninsured is recognized at the time of payment, rather than at the time of service. This policy is the result of a lack of reasonable assurance of collection for services provided to the uninsured due to the system's historically low collection rate. Management has estimated that the difference between recording revenue from the uninsured on a cash basis, rather than the accrual basis, is immaterial. Accordingly, all accounts receivable from the uninsured have been fully reserved in the allowance for uncompensated care.
Methodology Used in Determining Bad Debt	Part III, Section A, Line 2	The organization's total bad debt expense (total of all hospital facilities) is in accordance with the organization's financial statements, which is computed as bad debt net of contractual allowance, payments received and recoveries of bad debt previously written off.
Estimate of Bad Debt Expense Attributable to Patients Eligible Under	Organization's Charity Care Policy	Part III, Section A, Line 3 The filing organization recognizes that some patients are unable or unwilling to seek financial assistance due to barriers such as educational level, literacy, documentation requirements, or being intimidated by the application process. In order to estimate the amount of the organization's bad debt expense attributable to patients who may be eligible for financial assistance but have not submitted an application, the organization engaged PARO Decision Support, LLC. PARO Charity Score is designed to identify patients that likely qualify for financial assistance based on a predictive model and other financial and asset estimates for the patient derived from public record sources. In order to assess the bad debt accounts that would likely qualify for charity care, the following criteria were established based on an analysis of historical data of Christus Health and its related organizations: 1.PARO Score of less than or equal to 586, which is a predictor defining the likely socioeconomic conditions for the patient; 2.Estimated Federal Poverty Level of less than or equal to 226%, which is based on estimated household size and household estimated income; and 3.Third party data available on patient accounts which indicate that the patient is not a homeowner or a probable homeowner. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, the organization reported that 30% of bad debt expenses were attributable to patients who may have been eligible for financial assistance but were not responsive to the application process existing at that time. This figure was based on the PARO analysis and estimates of patients' financial needs that examined whether patients were characteristic of others who historically qualified for assistance under the traditional application process. The presumptive charity care analysis performed for the prior fiscal year determined a benchmark of bad debt accounts in the Christus Health System that lacked the information to qualify for charity care under the filing organization's customary process but would have likely qualified for assistance. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013, the organization utilized the PARO score to identify the accounts of individual patients that were likely eligible for financial assistance despite having not completed an application, and such analysis determined that 26.21% of such accounts were likely eligible for financial assistance. The organization granted presumptive eligibility for these accounts and they were reclassified under our financial assistance policy. These amounts were not reported as bad debt. The amount reported on Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 is the difference between the presumptive charity care benchmark established in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 and the aggregate of individual accounts for which the organization granted presumptive eligibility in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013. Thus, the organization estimates that only 30% of the bad debt expenses in fiscal year ending June 30, 2013 are attributable to patients who would likely have qualified for financial assistance. It is important to note that the figure calculated for fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 was estimated and not exact, and therefore the difference between the amounts qualified as presumptive charity care in any fiscal year may vary from the benchmark established in fiscal year ending June 30, 2011.
Bad Debt Expense Footnote	Part III, Section A, Line 4	The footnote to the CHRISTUS Health consolidated financial statements says, "The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management of the system to make assumptions, estimates, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. The system considers critical accounting policies to be those that require more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of its financial statements, including the following: recognition of net patient revenues, which include contractual allowances; provisions for bad debt; reserves for losses and expenses related to health care professional and general liabilities; determination of fair values of certain financial instruments; determination of fair value of certain goodwill and long-lived assets; and risks and assumptions for measurement of pension and retiree medical liabilities. Management relies on historical experience and on other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances in making its judgment and estimates. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates."
Extent to which shortfall should be treated as community benefit	Costing Methodology	Part III, Section B, Line 8 The amount on Schedule H, Part III, Line 6 is determined by calculating Medicare Allowable Costs using worksheet A of the Medicare Cost Report. Worksheet A of the Medicare Cost Report requires the organization to remove non-allowable expenses from total expenses via the adjustments to expenses worksheets within the Medicare Cost Report. The amount reported on Schedule H, Part III, Line 6 does not take into account all costs incurred by the filing organization associated with the filing organization's provisions of services to Medicare patients. Schedule H, Part III, Line 7 would equal a shortfall of ($3,089,624) if total expenses allocable to Medicare services were substituted on Schedule H, Part III, Line 6.
Collection Policy	Part III, Section C, Line 9b	It is the policy of the organization to pursue collections of patient balances from patients who have the ability to pay for these services. CHRISTUS Health applies its collection efforts consistently and fairly to all patients regardless of insurance. If a patient does not have the financial resources to pay their outstanding balances, the goal of the organization is to qualify these patients through the organization's charity policy or screen the patients through organization's presumptive charity tests. If the patient qualifies under either policy the account will be written off based upon level of qualification. These policies support the mission and vision of the organization and are approved by senior leadership. Input for persons who represent the community Part V, Section B, Line 3 CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA COLLABORATED WITH COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, CHURCHES, BUSINESSES, AGENCIES, LOCAL COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES, STATE INDIGENT PROGRAMS, THE COUNCIL ON ALCOHOLISM AND DRUG ABUSE OF NORTHWEST LOUISIANA, UNITED WAY, FOOD BANK OF NORTHERN LOUISIANA, COMMUNITY RENEWAL, CATHOLIC CHARITIES, LOCAL PHARMACIES, THE NORTH LOUISIANA AREA HEALTH EDUCATION CENTER, AND VARIOUS OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO ESTABLISH A CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA ADVISORY COUNCIL TO DETERMINE THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS OF NORTHERN LOUISIANA. THE ADVISORY COUNCIL IDENTIFIED THE GAPS IN SERVICES ACROSS MULTIPLE COMMUNITIES TO INCLUDE: INADEQUATE HEALTH LITERACY; INADEQUATE HEALTH LITERATURE DISSEMINATION MECHANISMS TO AT-RISK POPULATIONS; AND AN INADEQUATE AMOUNT OF PRIMARY MEDICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS TO RURAL COMMUNITIES, AMONG SEVERAL OTHER NEEDS ALL SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFIED IN THE CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA). WORKING INTERNALLY AND WITH OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS, THE RESULTS OF THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT WERE ANALYZED AND PRIORITIZED. EFFECTIVE PLANS AND STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THOSE NEEDS WERE DESIGNED AND/OR CONTINUED. THE IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS WERE INCORPORATED INTO THE STRATEGIC GOALS OF CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA
Determination of eligibility for discounted care	Part V, Section B, Line 11	The hospital facility provides discounted care to all uninsured patients. In order to determine discounts for uninsured patients, the facility utilizes a sliding scale based on federal poverty guidelines and other criteria applied to a uniform fee schedule. The facility has implemented a 3 tier uninsured fee schedule wherein individuals between 201-300% of the Federal Poverty Level receive a specific discount percentage off of the uninsured discounted price; individuals between 301%-400% of the Federal Poverty Level receive a specific discount percentage off of the uninsured discounted price; and individuals above 401% of the Federal Poverty Level receive no additional discount off of the uninsured discounted price. There is no Federal Poverty Limit for the uninsured population to receive discounted care because all charges by the facility are based on the uninsured discounted price. The uninsured discounted price is based on the FY 2009 managed care average reimbursement rate, excluding implant and drug contribution dollars.
How the hospital facility publicizes the financial assistance policy	Part V, Section B, Lines 14 & 14g	The hospital facility's complete financial assistance policy is not posted in the facility's emergency rooms, waiting rooms or admissions offices; however, a notice that the financial assistance policy is available at the business office, online and is posted in the facility's emergency rooms, waiting rooms and admission offices. Part V, Section B, Line 15 Did the hospital facility have in place during the tax year a separate billing and collections policy, or a written financial assistance policy that explained action the hospital facility may take upon non-payment? The organization does not have a policy that addresses actions in the event of non-payment. The organization does not pursue any of the listed actions at lines 16 or 17 in pursuit of collections from individuals prior to making a reasonable effort to determine the patient's eligibility for financial assistance under CHRISTUS Health Management Directive 11.
Determine the maximum amounts that can be charged to FAP-eligible	individuals for emergency or other medically necessary care	Part V, Section B, Line 20D The hospital facility used the average managed care reimbursement rate from the fiscal year ending 6-30-09 in order to determine the maximum amounts that can be charged to FAP-eligible patients. The average managed care rate is the average reimbursement received for specific categories of services from the collective group of private insurers that reimburse all hospital facilities within the Christus Health System except St. Vincent Hospital and Christus Continuing Care.

Patient education of eligibility for assistance	Part VI, Line 3	CHRISTUS Health Northern Louisiana makes every effort to educate patients on its Charity and Discount Policy and about their eligibility for assistance under federal, state, or local government programs during registration, pre-registration (for scheduled tests and surgeries), post registration (during their hospitalization) and following discharge (telephone or written inquiry) in languages appropriate for the population being served. Patients are given information and forms by a financial counselor who helps them complete the forms during their inpatient and outpatient visits. Patients are asked to bring or mail supporting documentation to determine income, assets and household expenses. The Business Office reviews the application based on the information provided by the patient. If the patient qualifies for charity care or a discount, a new bill is generated. Patients who do not provide the required documentation are considered ineligible and are billed accordingly. If the documentation is provided at a later time, the patient may then be determined to be eligible for charity care or a discount. Documentation is retained by the billing office for seven years. A public notice regarding the charity care policy is posted in prominent places throughout the hospitals, including but not limited to the emergency room waiting areas and the admissions office waiting areas, as required by both the State of Texas Community Benefit Standard (which addresses the duties and responsibilities of nonprofit hospitals) and CHRISTUS Health Community Benefit Guidelines #050. In addition, a public notice regarding the charity care policy and information on financial assistance are also posted on the CHRISTUS HEALTH website. The information on financial assistance includes explanations on the availability of financial assistance, who qualifies, and how to apply for financial assistance.

Form 990, Schedule I, PART I, LINE 2	Description of Organization's Procedures for Monitoring the Use of Grants	THE ORGANIZATION FOLLOWS CHRISTUS HEALTH MANAGEMENT DIRECTIVE NO. 0006, "CONTRIBUTIONS/DONATIONS TO OTHER ORGANIZATIONS". BEFORE ANY DONATION IS MADE, TWO CRITERIA ARE ADDRESSED: (1) ORGANIZATION TEST AND (2) IRS TEST. THE ORGANIZATION TEST ENSURES THAT DONATIONS ARE EXCLUSIVELY FOR CHARITABLE, SCIENTIFIC, EDUCATIONAL, AND RELIGIOUS PURPOSES, AND IN FURTHERANCE OF OUR PURPOSE OF SUPPORTING THE HEALING MINISTRY OF JESUS CHRIST AND ADVANCING, PROMOTING, AND SUPPORTING THE HEALTHCARE MINISTRIES OF THE SPONSORING CONGREGATIONS. CONTRIBUTIONS CAN BE MADE TO SUPPORT CHRISTUS SYSTEM MEMBERS AND TO OTHER QUALIFYING TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATIONS, PARTICULARLY THOSE DESIGNED TO SUPPORT AND BENEFIT THE POOR AND UNDERSERVED. THE ORGANIZATION CONSIDERED FOR DONATIONS MUST BE AN IRS SECTION 501(C)(3) ORGANIZATION AND DOCUMENTATION TO THAT EFFECT OBTAINED. TO SATISFY THE IRS TEST CONTRIBUTIONS GIVEN MUST BE DEDICATED TO ACHIEVING CHARITABLE PURPOSES NOT FOR PERSONAL BENEFIT BUT FOR PUBLIC BENEFIT. CONTRIBUTIONS ARE PROHIBITED TO ORGANIZATIONS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS, CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE, OR CONDUCT MORE THAN INCIDENTAL LOBBYING. DOCUMENTATION MUST SUPPORT HOW THE DONATION MEETS ORGANIZATIONAL PURPOSES AND FURTHERANCE OF MISSION. DONATIONS SHOULD BE MODEST IN SCOPE. THE FILING ORGANIZATION PROVIDES INDIGENT FUNDING GRANTS TO THE COUNTIES IN WHICH CHRISTUS HEALTH SYSTEM HOSPITALS SERVE VIA GRANTS PAID TO OTHER HOSPITALS AND HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS LOCATED WITHIN SUCH COUNTIES. THIS CHARITABLE DONATION HELPS RELIEVE THE ADDITIONAL EXPENSE OF HEALTHCARE FOR THE INDIGENT POPULATION WITHIN OUR COMMUNITIES THAT THE FILING ORGANIZATION MAY NOT DIRECTLY SERVE IN ONE OF ITS HOSPITALS. THIS IS A RESULT OF OUR MISSION TO EXTEND THE HEALING MINISTRY OF JESUS CHRIST, ESPECIALLY TO THE POOR AND UNDERSERVED.

Supplemental Compensation Information		FORM 990, PART VII, LINE 1A AND SCHEDULE J, PART II DIRECTORS AND EX-OFFICIO DIRECTORS PROVIDE THEIR SERVICES AS MEMBERS OF THE BOARD WITHOUT COMPENSATION OR BENEFITS. ANY COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS DISCLOSED FOR SUCH PERSONS IS EARNED IN THE RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL'S ROLE AS AN OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE OF THE ORGANIZATION, NOT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL'S ROLE AS A BOARD MEMBER OR DIRECTOR. OFFICERS, KEY EMPLOYEES AND HIGHEST PAID EMPLOYEES ARE FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES. BOARD MEMBERS SPEND TIME AS NEEDED FOR BOARD MEETINGS AND FUNCTIONS. FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 1A TAXABLE COMPENSATION WAS REPORTED TO VARIOUS OFFICERS AND BOARD MEMBERS RELATED TO COMPANION TRAVEL TO CHRISTUS MEETINGS. RELATED ORG DETERMINING CEO/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S COMPENSATION FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART I, QUESTION 3 THE FILING ORGANIZATION'S CEO/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR IS AN EMPLOYEE OF CHRISTUS HEALTH, A RELATED ORGANIZATION. AS A RESULT, COMPENSATION IS ESTABLISHED AT THE CHRISTUS HEALTH LEVEL AND THE FILING ORGANIZATION DOES NOT HAVE A ROLE IN IMPLEMENTING THE METHODS USED TO ESTABLISH COMPENSATION OR IN DETERMINING CEO/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION. CHRISTUS HEALTH USES AN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE TO ESTABLISH AND APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF THE FILING ORGANIZATION'S CEO/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. THIS COMMITTEE USES AN INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT WHO PERFORMS BI-ANNUAL COMPENSATION SURVEY. SEVERANCE PAYMENT FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART I, QUESTION 4A UNDER THE SEVERANCE PLAN, ALL OR A PORTION OF THE BASE SALARY OF A PARTICIPATING EXECUTIVE WILL CONTINUE TO BE PAID TO THE EXECUTIVE FOR A LIMITED PERIOD OF TIME IF THE EXECUTIVE'S EMPLOYMENT WITH CHRISTUS AND ITS AFFILIATES IS INVOLUNTARILY TERMINATED. CAROLYN MOORE RECEIVED $34,259 IN SEVERANCE PAYMENT DURING CALENDAR YEAR 2012. BONNIE BURNETT RECEIVED $47,216 IN SEVERANCE PAYMENT DURING CALENDAR YEAR 2012. SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART I, QUESTION 4B DEFERRED COMPENSATION INCLUDES EXECUTIVE DEFERRED INCOME ACCOUNT, SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AND RETENTION PLAN, AND PENSION RESTORATION PLAN. ESTIMATED PENSION BENEFITS WERE CALCULATED BASED ON THE PROVISIONS OF THE CURRENT PENSION RESTORATION PLAN AT 6% OF PENSIONABLE EARNINGS WHICH ARE OVER THE IRS LEGISLATIVE COMPENSATION LIMIT. SOME ASSOCIATES ARE GRANDFATHERED UNDER AN EARLIER LEGACY PENSION PLAN. IF A PARTICIPANT HAS PROTECTED PENSION BENEFITS UNDER SUCH LEGACY PLANS, HIS/HER PERCENTAGE IS ZERO UNDER THE SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AND RETENTION PLAN, AS THE PROTECTED BENEFIT IS ALREADY EQUAL TO OR BETTER THAN CURRENT MARKET. SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN PAYMENT FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART I, QUESTION 4B AND FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART II, COLUMN (F) COMPENSATION REPORTED AS DEFERRED IN PRIOR FORM 990 STEPHEN WRIGHT WAS PAID $202,748 DURING CALENDAR YEAR 2012 UNDER A SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN.

Jason Rounds WAS PAID $14,821 DURING CALENDAR YEAR 2012 UNDER A SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN. SUPPLEMENTAL COMPENSATION INFORMATION FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART II W-2 COMPENSATION MAY INCLUDE PAYMENTS RELATED TO COMPENSATION DEFERRED IN PRIOR YEARS. DEFERRED COMPENSATION MAY INCLUDE DEFERRALS OF CURRENT YEAR COMPENSATION UNDER EXECUTIVE DEFERRED INCOME ACCOUNT, SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AND RETENTION PLAN AND PENSION RESTORATION PLAN.

ESTIMATED PENSION BENEFITS WERE CALCULATED BASED ON THE PROVISIONS OF THE CURRENT CASH BALANCE PLAN AT 6% OF PENSIONABLE EARNINGS. SOME ASSOCIATES ARE GRANDFATHERED UNDER AN EARLIER PENSION PLAN. THESE GRANDFATHERED PARTICIPANTS, BASED ON COMPUTATION AT THE TIME OF THEIR RETIREMENT, WILL RECEIVE THE LARGER OF THE RETIREMENT BENEFIT COMPUTED UNDER THE CASH BALANCE PLAN COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS PENSION PLAN. DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF CALCULATING AN ACCURATE BENEFIT COST FOR GRANDFATHERED PARTICIPANTS, THE FORM 990 REPORTS AS PENSION BENEFITS THEIR ANNUAL ESTIMATED CASH BALANCE PLAN ACCRUAL. SUPPLEMENTAL COMPENSATION INFORMATION FORM 990, SCHEDULE J, PART II, COLUMN B(II) BONUS AND INCENTIVE COMPENSATION MAY INCLUDE AMOUNTS THAT WERE DEFERRED IN A PRIOR YEAR BUT PAID OUT IN CALENDAR YEAR 2012.

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D	COMMUNITY SERVICES FOR THE POOR AND UNDERSERVED ROOTED IN OUR MISSION AND TRADITION, FOUNDERS AND SPONSORS OF CHRISTUS HEALTH AND THOSE WHO CO-MINISTER WITH THEM SEEK NEW AND INNOVATIVE WAYS OF DELIVERING QUALITY HEALTH CARE THAT IS BOTH AFFORDABLE AND ACCESSIBLE TO ALL. TODAY, MORE THAN EVER, CHRISTUS HEALTH STRIVES TO IMPROVE THE TOTAL HEALTH STATUS OF THE COMMUNITY THROUGH PROGRAMS THAT PLACE SERVICES WHERE THEY ARE NEEDED THE MOST, WITH SPECIAL ATTENTION AND PREFERENCE GIVEN TO PROGRAMS THAT SUPPORT AND BENEFIT THE HEALTH AND WELFARE OF THE POOR AND UNDERSERVED. COMMUNITY SERVICES FOR THE POOR AND UNDERSERVED REPRESENT THE UNPAID COST OF SERVICES PROVIDED FOR WHICH A PATIENT IS NOT BILLED, OR FOR WHICH A FEE HAS BEEN ASSESSED THAT RECOVERS ONLY A PORTION OF THE COST OF THE RENDERED SERVICE. THIS CATEGORY INCLUDES INITIATIVES THAT REACH OUT TO THOSE IN NEED THROUGH COMMUNITY HEALTH AND SOCIAL PROGRAMS. THESE PROGRAMS SEEK JUSTICE FOR THE VULNERABLE AND WORK TO BRING ABOUT CHANGES IN OUR POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC SYSTEMS. THE PROGRAMS COVER A BROAD SPECTRUM OF SERVICES INCLUDING COMMUNITY CLINICS, EDUCATION AND WELLNESS FOR TEEN MOMS, MEALS ON WHEELS, RESCUE MISSION, BACK TO SCHOOL CHILDREN'S PROGRAM, COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT, TRANSPORTATION SERVICES AND A VARIETY OF OTHER SOCIAL SERVICES. CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA OPENS ITS DOORS TO VARIOUS COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, MEDICAL STUDENTS, GROUPS, CLUBS, STATE AGENCIES, AND SUPPORT GROUPS WHICH NEED MEETING AND/OR OFFICE SPACE. THIS SERVICE IS PROVIDED AT NO COST TO THESE COMMUNITY, NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS OR STATE AGENCIES. CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA PROVIDES NEEDED OFFICE SPACE AT LITTLE TO NO EXPENSE TO VARIOUS NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA PROVIDES MEALS FOR RESIDENTS OF RUTHERFORD HOUSE, A LOCAL RESIDENTIAL, REHABILITATIVE JUVENILE PROGRAM AND THE SHREVEPORT/BOSSIER RESCUE MISSION, A HOMELESS AND/OR DISPLACED SHELTER/HOUSING PROGRAM LOCATED IN SHREVEPORT, LOUISIANA. ONE EXAMPLE OF CHRISTUS HEALTH COMMUNITY BENEFITS ACCOUNTED FOR UNDER COMMUNITY SERVICES FOR THE POOR AND UNDERSERVED INCLUDE THE CHRISTUS COMMUNITY DIRECT INVESTMENT PROGRAM (CDI). THE CHRISTUS BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED THE FUNDING OF A CDI LOAN PROGRAM TO ENSURE THAT THE WORK OF SOCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND MORAL AND ETHICAL STEWARDSHIP CONTINUES IN SPITE OF CHALLENGING FISCAL CONDITIONS FACED BY LOCAL OPERATING ENTITIES. THE PURPOSE OF THE CDI PROGRAM IS TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY-DRIVEN INITIATIVES PRIMARILY FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT BY PROVIDING FINANCING AT BELOW-MARKET INTEREST RATES TO NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AT TERMS NOT EXCEEDING MORE THAN FIVE YEARS. THE INCOME LOST FROM THE DIFFERENCE IN THE MARKET RATE LESS OUR LOAN RATE (FOREGONE INCOME) IS CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR REPORTING PURPOSES. THE COST OF THESE INVESTMENTS IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE PROGRAM SERVICE EXPENSES OF CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA. THOUGH OUTSTANDING LOAN BALANCES VARY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, THE OUTSTANDING LOAN BALANCE AT THE END OF FISCAL YEAR 2013 WAS $1,631,224. THE FOREGONE INTEREST FOR CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA IN FY2013 WAS $44,856. CHRISTUS HEALTH ESTABLISHED THE CHRISTUS FUND TO PROVIDE RESOURCES TO NOT-FOR-PROFIT AGENCIES AND GROUPS WHOSE VISION, MISSION AND GOALS ARE CONSISTENT WITH CHRISTUS HEALTH'S MISSION, VALUES AND PHILOSOPHY OF A HEALTHY COMMUNITY. WE BELIEVE THAT BY WORKING TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE A PROFOUND DIFFERENCE IN THE QUALITY OF PEOPLES' LIVES AND CREATE SUSTAINABLE HEALTH IN OUR COMMUNITIES. DURING FY2013, THE TOTAL GRANT MONEY DISTRIBUTED BY CHRISTUS HEALTH TO THE NORTHERN LOUISIANA REGION WAS $66,559. THE COST OF THESE GRANTS IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE PROGRAM SERVICE EXPENSES OF CHRISTUS HEALTH NORTHERN LOUISIANA. PROGRAM SERVICE EXPENSES = $536,318 GRANTS = $383,373 PROGRAM SERVICE REVENUE = $ 0 PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D COMMUNITY SERVICES FOR THE BROADER COMMUNITY THE GREATEST SHARE OF THESE EXPENSES IS FOR EDUCATING HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. HELPING TO PREPARE FUTURE HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS IS A DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTIC OF NOT-FOR-PROFIT HEALTH CARE AND CONSTITUTES A SIGNIFICANT COMMUNITY BENEFIT. CHRISTUS HEALTH ALSO USED CASH DONATIONS AS A VEHICLE TO HELP OUR COMMUNITIES. WE MADE CASH DONATIONS, IN ADDITION TO GRANTS AWARDED THROUGH THE CHRISTUS FUND, TO SUPPORT CAUSES LIKE LSU- EVENING FOR HEROES, NORTH LOUISIANA ECONOMIC PARTNERSHIP, AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION-GO RED FOR WOMEN,AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY, MARCH OF DIMES, AND FOR MANY OTHER EQUALLY WORTHY PURPOSES.

	COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORTING - CHARITY CARE AND MEDICAID CHRISTUS ADHERES TO THE CATHOLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATION'S GUIDE FOR PLANNING AND REPORTING COMMUNITY BENEFIT (2012), AND COMPLIES WITH THE STATE OF TEXAS REQUIREMENTS FOR REPORTING. COMMUNITY BENEFIT, REPORTED AS UNPAID COSTS, INCLUDES BOTH CHARITY CARE AND COMMUNITY SERVICES. TO THE LIMITS OF ITS RESOURCES, CHRISTUS HEALTH IS AN INSTITUTION OF PURELY PUBLIC CHARITY; THUS, THE MOST TANGIBLE EXPRESSION OF CHRISTUS HEALTH'S CHARITABLE PURPOSE IS THE PROVISION OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO THOSE PERSONS WHO ARE UNABLE TO PAY. CHARITY CARE FALLS INTO TWO CATEGORIES: CHARITY CARE AND UNPAID GOVERNMENT INDIGENT CARE. IN KEEPING WITH ITS MISSION, VALUES AND VISION, CHRISTUS HEALTH PROVIDES CHARITY CARE SERVICES IN A MANNER THAT RESPECTS THE DIGNITY OF THE PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. CHARITY CARE IS PROVIDED WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT A CHARGE THAT IS LESS THAN THE USUAL CHARGE FOR SUCH SERVICES. THE DETERMINATION AS TO THE AMOUNT TO BE CHARGED, IF ANY, IS MADE ACCORDING TO A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY AS DETERMINED BY THE ESTABLISHED ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS WHOSE ECONOMIC CIRCUMSTANCES PLACE THEM AT OR UNDER 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL), SERVICES ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY EXPECTATION OF PAYMENT. UNINSURED PATIENTS WHOSE ECONOMIC CIRCUMSTANCES PLACE THEM BETWEEN 200 AND 400 PERCENT OF FPL ARE CHARGED BASED ON A SLIDING SCALE, AND THOSE ABOVE 400 PERCENT RECEIVE DISCOUNTS BASED ON THE UNINSURED FEE SCHEDULE. NO PATIENT IS REFUSED NECESSARY MEDICAL CARE DUE TO HIS OR HER INABILITY TO PAY. CHRISTUS HEALTH IS AN ACTIVE PARTICIPANT IN THE STATES OF TEXAS AND LOUISIANA MEDICAID PROGRAMS. THOSE PROGRAMS SEEK TO PROVIDE PAYMENT FOR HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS WHO MEET CERTAIN FINANCIAL AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS. FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS INCLUDE EVALUATION OF BOTH ASSETS AND INCOME.

	OTHER GOVERNMENT SPONSORED PROGRAMS IN ADDITION TO THE PROVISION OF CHARITY CARE AND OTHER COMMUNITY SERVICES, CHRISTUS HEALTH PROVIDES SERVICES TO PERSONS COVERED UNDER GOVERNMENT-SPONSORED PROGRAMS, INCLUDING MEDICARE AND TRICARE. THE UNREIMBURSED COSTS OF THESE SERVICES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN REPORTS PREPARED FOLLOWING CATHOLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATION GUIDELINES. CHRISTUS HEALTH PROVIDES SERVICES TO PERSONS COVERED UNDER THE FEDERAL MEDICARE PROGRAM, AND IN FACT, THIS IS THE LARGEST SINGLE PAYOR CLASSIFICATION OF PATIENTS SERVED BY THIS HEALTH SYSTEM. THE PAYMENT RATE FOR INPATIENT SERVICES IS ON A PER-CASE RATE, CALCULATED BASED ON THE DIAGNOSTIC-RELATED GROUP (DRG) INTO WHICH THE PATIENT IS CATEGORIZED. OUTPATIENT SERVICES ARE REIMBURSED BY MEDICARE BASED ON ITS FEE SCHEDULE.
