Form and Line Reference	Explanation
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 5 Facility A, 1	Facility A, 1 - Facility Group A. Primary data collection for the CHNA included use of community stakeholder focus group feedback, an online health needs survey and consumer awareness/preference study results. For a full list of organizations represented by the community stakeholders, reference Appendix A of the hospital CHNA. The individuals in the community stakeholders' group, who represent the broad interest of the community served, provided their feedback through online surveys and a focus group presentation during which they assisted the hospitals in ranking the health needs that were determined to be a priority in the community.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 6a Facility A, 1	Facility A, 1 - SSM DePaul Hospital. Because DePaul Health Center and BJC Health System's Christian Hospital both focus on addressing the health needs of residents of North St Louis County, the two hospitals combined efforts to seek input from community stakeholders.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility A, 1	Facility A, 1 - SSM Depaul Health Center. SSM Health's mission statement is "Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God." The strategic priorities of the community benefit plan as identified in the most recent community health needs assessment (CHNA) are: obesity, cardiovascular disease/diabetes and access to care. Our needs assessment was completed November 1, 2012 and adopted as part of our strategic plan on December 15, 2012. Goals and objectives were established to change behavior, provide metrics to measure change, and to impact the overall health of those we serve. All of the community benefit activities are designed to meet the needs identified in the CHNA. The SSM DePaul Health Center 2012 - 2015 CHNA revealed that North St. Louis County residents self-reported higher rates of obesity (26.1%) and obesity-related factors than other areas in St. Louis County. SSM DePaul Health Center will collaborate with community partners and stakeholders to develop community partnerships and clinics that focus on healthy lifestyle choices and better options for care including: * "Lose To Win": a 12-week collaborative program where support is given to participants in order to encourage weight loss and long-term healthy lifestyle choices * "CatholicFit": a 12-week faith and fitness program designed for third and sixth grade students in the eight Catholic Schools within North St. Louis County * Partnership between SSM Weight Loss Clinic and the community The following goals were achieved in 2014 to address obesity: * Goal: Increase participation in the Lose to Win Program from 650 in 2013 to 750 in 2014, Participation in the Lose to Win program was 795 * Goal: Implement the CatholicFit collaboration with 440 children participating in the 2014-2015 school year, participation in the CatholicFit program reached 450 * Goal: increase percentage of 6th grade students in CatholicFit program who self- report family discussions about fitness, achieved 83% of program participants reporting family discussions about fitness * Goal: Implement a weight loss support group for pre and post-operative patients holding 12 meetings annually with 360 participants, held 12 meeting with 420 participants * Goal: Provide 48 weight loss seminars with 480 participants, held 44 seminars with 720 participants * Goal: Increase the number of North St Louis County residents treated by SSM Weight Loss Clinic, 277 residents participated in the Weight Loss Clinic The 2012 SSM DePaul Health Center community needs assessment revealed that heart disease is the leading cause of emergency visits/hospitalizations and deaths in North St. Louis County; and is higher than other areas in St. Louis County. Hypertension is the most prevalent disease in North St. Louis County. Diabetes is among the top reasons for hospitalizations (#5) and death (#4) among African-Americans in North St. Louis County. SSM DePaul Health Center will collaborate with community and faith-based organizations to actively participate in initiatives to address long-term healthy lifestyle choices. In addition, DePaul will pilot a Diabetic Screening Clinic to improve access to an endocrinologist - appointments are currently booked 4 months out. The following goal were achieved in 2014 to address cardiovascular disease/diabetes: * Goal: implement new community collaborative with CDM Mind & Body to hold Fitness Challenge and Health Fair; held community events with 350 participants * Goal: Hold a Healthy Heart Valve Community Forum with 100 participants, held the forum with 150 participants * Goal: Insure patients with chronic heart failure secure an appointment with an appropriate physician within 5 days of discharge, secured appointments for 30% of eligible patients The 2012 SSM DePaul Health Center community needs assessment revealed access to care for the uninsured as a concern to community stakeholders and hospital administration. The percent of uninsured adults in North St. Louis County is higher than all of St. Louis County (but better than the state as a whole); and in St. Louis County, the highest proportion of uninsured and Medicaid populations - as well as those who lack access to care - are in North St. Louis County. Having a large population without a regular source of care results in over use on the hospital (ED and Inpatient), especially among those ages 44 and younger. SSM DePaul Health Center will continue to collaborate with Integrated Health Network (IHN) to develop referral and continuum of care relationships with the area federally-qualified health center, establish an Urgent Care Clinic to allow less acute care outside of the Emergency Room, and continue to recruit physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants to serve the community need. The following goals were achieved in 2014 to address access to care: * Goal: Coordinate with IHN to improve continuum of care by increasing encounters to 1,522 with 944 appointments made (62% of encounters) with an appointment show rate of 31%, IHN coordinators achieved 1,543 encounters with 781 appointments scheduled (51% of encounters) with an appointment show rate of 32% * Goal: Refer 100% of patients who visit the Urgent Care without a primary care provider to an appropriate primary care physician, 20.3% of Urgent care patients were referred to a primary care physician * Goal: Increase recruitment of primary care providers for North County area, 2 primary care physicians who departed were replaced and 2 primary care physicians were recruited to state in 2015
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility A, 2	Facility A, 2 - SSM St Mary's Health Center. SSM Health's mission statement is "Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God." The strategic priorities of the community benefit plan as identified in the most recent community health needs assessment (CHNA) are: access to care, sexually transmitted diseases, and diabetes. Our needs assessment was completed November 1, 2012 and adopted as part of our strategic plan on December 15, 2012. Goals and objectives were established to change behavior, provide metrics to measure change, and to impact the overall health of those we serve. All of the community benefit activities are designed to meet the needs identified in the CHNA. A secondary data source for the 2012 SSM St. Mary's Health Center community needs assessment was the 2011 St. Louis County Community Health Needs Assessment which identified access to care as a priority health issue for North and Mid St. Louis Counties. The assessment concludes that residents in Mid and North St. Louis Counties have lower access to care compared to the rest of St. Louis County, experience greater barriers associated with cost of care, are more likely to use the emergency department as a source of primary care, and are less likely to get needed prescription drugs because of cost. SSM St. Mary's Health Center will continue to collaborate with Integrated Health Network to develop referral and continuum of care relationships with area federally-qualified health centers, establish an Urgent Care Clinic to allow less acute care outside of the Emergency Room, and continue to recruit physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants to serve the community need. The following goals were achieved in 2014 to address access to care: * Goal: Refer 100% of patients who visit the Urgent Care without a primary care provider to an appropriate primary care physician, 89% of Urgent care patients were referred to a primary care physician * Goal: Increase the number of IHN community referral coordinator encounters from 2,792 encounters in 2013 to 2,800 encounters in 2014, 2,825 encounters * Goal: Increase the percentage of IHN community referral coordinator encounters leading to appointments to 50%, percentage of encounters leading to appointments was 57% * Goal: Achieve a 40% show rate for all appointments resulting from a community referral coordinator, achieved a 45% show rate for appointments * Goal: Recruitment of primary care providers to serve the hospital service area, recruited 3 primary care providers to the area A secondary data source for the 2012 SSM St. Mary's Health Center community needs assessment was the 2011 St. Louis County Community Health Needs Assessment which noted sexually transmitted infections as priority health need for North and Mid-St Louis Counties. St. Louis City STI rates are significantly higher than St. Louis County. U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ranks St. Louis second highest among US cities per capita rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea. SSM St. Mary's Health Center will collaborate with local departments of health and state agencies to develop STD screening availability and patient education on STDs within emergency department visits. The following goals were achieved in 2014 to address sexually transmitted diseases: * Goal: Develop collaborative initiative to offer voluntary sexually transmitted infections screening for any patient ages 13 - 24 presenting in the Emergency Department, developed initiative to be implemented in 2015 * Goal: Reduce the number of patients with STDs in the zip codes 63143, 63105, and 63117 through screening, treatment and education, established a baseline of 87 patients per year The 2012 SSM St. Mary's Health Center community needs assessment revealed that diabetes is among the top reasons for chronic disease hospitalizations and chronic disease deaths among the African American populations in North and Mid St. Louis Counties and St. Louis City. Diabetes is among the list of preventable hospitalizations in St. Louis County and St. Louis City that fall worse than the St. Louis Bi-State Region benchmark. SSM St. Mary's Health Center has a comprehensive Internal Medicine clinic that provides primary care to residents of St. Louis City and County. The SMHC Diabetes Program collaborates with the interdisciplinary Internal Medicine clinic to provide education and support needed for patient centered education and resources enabling patients to manage their Diabetes, make healthy lifestyle choices, and work with their health care team to overcome barriers. The following goals were achieved in 2014 to address diabetes: * Goal: Provide Diabetes Education in partnership with the Internal Medicine Clinic beginning January 2014, 45 patients received diabetes education * Goal: Increase overall patient volume for Diabetes education from 4,861 visits in 2013 to 5,104 visits in 2014; achieve 7,332 diabetes education visits * Goal: Decrease Hemoglobin A1C levels among Diabetic patients seen in the hospital Internal Medicine clinic with Diabetes education, established a baseline percentage of 10.1%
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility A, 3	Facility A, 3 - SSM St Joseph Hospital. SSM Health's mission statement is "Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God." The strategic priorities of the community benefit plan as identified in the most recent community health needs assessment (CHNA) are: access to care, respiratory, Cardiovascular, cancer and cerebrovascular disease and substance abuse. Our needs assessment was completed June 2012 and adopted as part of our strategic plan on December 3, 2012. Goals and objectives were established to change behavior, provide metrics to measure change, and to impact the overall health of those we serve. All of the community benefit activities are designed to meet the needs identified in the CHNA. The 2012 St. Joseph Health Center CHNA revealed barriers to accessing health care for people in Eastern / Central St. Charles County. Eastern / Central St. Charles County has higher rates of uninsured adults, adults on Medicaid, uninsured children, children on Medicaid, and Medicare rates when compared to other areas in St. Charles County; however, rates of uninsured are lower than St. Louis and the state of Missouri overall. St. Joseph Health Center will collaborate with community partners to increase care for uninsured people in Eastern/ Central St. Charles County. Efforts will include recruiting physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants and referrals to VIM (Volunteers In Medicine). The following goals were achieved in 2014 to address access to care: * Goal: Open a new Urgent Care Center in Eastern/Central St Charles County, opened new urgent care in Eastern St Charles County * Goal: Expand physician coverage at the Volunteer in Medicine (VIM) Clinic, all new employed physicians volunteer a minimum of 4 hours per month * Goal: Recruit two new physicians to the service area, recruited two physicians in the service area * Goal: Increase the percentage of patients converted from self-pay to Medicaid, established a baseline percentage of 41% * Goal: Increase the percentage of uninsured/self-pay patients referred to the VIM Clinic, established a baseline of 34% The 2012 St. Joseph Health Center CHNA cited barriers to accessing health care related to respiratory, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular diseases and overall health awareness for the Eastern / Central St. Charles County community.

Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility A, 4	Facility A, 4 - St Clare Hospital. SSM Health's mission statement is "Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God." The strategic priorities of the community benefit plan as identified in the most recent community health needs assessment (CHNA) are: access to care, Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease and substance abuse. Our needs assessment was completed June 2012 and adopted as part of our strategic plan on December 3, 2012. Goals and objectives were established to change behavior, provide metrics to measure change, and to impact the overall health of those we serve. All of the community benefit activities are designed to meet the needs identified in the CHNA. The 2012 SSM St. Clare Health Center community needs assessment revealed that although access is relatively good in this region (insurance coverage is high and use of the emergency department is low), the community stakeholders identified gaps in access regarding transportation for the elderly and access to primary care and clinics. SSM St. Clare Health Center will establish collaborative partnerships to address transportation challenges, develop referral and continuum of care relationships with area federally qualified health center and continue to recruit physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants to serve the community need. The following goals were achieved in 2014 to address access to care: * Goal: Increase percentage of encounters with the community referral coordinator leading to appointments to 50% with a 40% goal rate, program started in second quarter of 2014 resulting in 7.5% of encounters leading to appointments with a 35.7% show rate * Goal: Recruit 4 primary care providers in the hospital service area, increased the number of providers servicing the hospital area by 3.5 The 2012 SSM St. Clare Health Center community needs assessment revealed the leading cause of chronic inpatient hospitalizations and death in South St. Louis County is heart disease, and rates of heart disease-related hospitalizations and deaths in South St. Louis County are higher than all of St. Louis County and the St. Louis MSA benchmarks. Stroke/ cerebrovascular disease is among the top five reasons for chronic inpatient hospitalizations and death in South St. Louis County and the rates of stroke / cerebrovascular disease related hospitalizations and deaths in South St. Louis County are higher (worse) than all of St. Louis County and the St. Louis MSA benchmarks. SSM St. Clare Health Center will raise awareness about obesity as a contributor to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease states through communications, collaborate with community partners to improve community based education and screenings and work with physicians to identify opportunities to utilize outpatient diabetic and nutrition consults to manage disease.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
Schedule H, Part I, Line 3b Eligibility for Discounted Care	Services eligible under the financial assistance policy will be made available to the patient on a sliding fee scale, in accordance with financial need, as determined in reference to Federal Poverty Levels (FPL) in effect at the time of the determination. The basis for the amounts the hospital will charge patients qualifying for financial assistance is as follows: Patients whose family income is above 200% but not more than 400% of the FPL are eligible to receive discounted services at amounts no greater than the amounts generally billed to the hospital's commercially insured or Medicare patients.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 3c Discounted Care Exceptions	Patients whose family income exceeds 400% of the FPL may be eligible to receive discounted rates on a case-by-case basis based on their specific circumstances, such as catastrophic illness or medical indigence, at the discretion of the hospital; however the discounted rates shall not be greater than the amounts generally billed to commercially insured [or Medicare] patients. In such cases, other factors may be considered in determining their eligibility for discounted or free services, including: * Bank accounts, investments and other assets * Employment status and earning capacity * Amount and frequency of bills for health care services * Other financial obligations and expenses * Generally, financial responsibility will be no more than 25% of gross family income. The hospital may utilize predictive analytical software or other criteria to assist in making a determination of financial assistance eligibility in situations where the patient qualifies for financial assistance but has not provided the necessary documentation to make a determination. This process is called "presumptive eligibility."
Schedule H, Part I, Line 6a Community Benefit Annual Report	SSM Health Care St. Louis is part of the integrated health system known as SSM Health. In an effort to strengthen its community benefit program, SSM Health plans for, measures, and communicates community benefits provided to persons who are low income, the unpaid costs of public programs and other activities that respond to community need, improve community health, or reach out to low income and vulnerable persons.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Bad Debt Expense excluded from financial assistance calculation	922607
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistance	Financial Assistance Methodology: The cost of financial assistance is calculated in compliance with catholic health association (CHA) guidelines. A cost to charge ratio calculated using the IRS worksheet 2, ratio of patient care cost to charges, was used to compute financial assistance at cost. This is the ratio of total adjusted operating expense to total gross patient revenue. The gross revenue amount is a gross amount - prior to contractual adjustments and bad debts. Both gross revenue and costs are based on charges at date/time of service. Unreimbursed Medicaid Costing Methodology: The cost of unreimbursed Medicaid is calculated in compliance with Catholic Health Association (CHA) guidelines. A cost to charge ratio calculated utilizing IRS Worksheet 2, Ratio of patient care cost to charges, was used to compute unreimbursed Medicaid costs. This is the ratio of total adjusted operating expenses to total gross patient revenue. The gross revenue amount is gross amount - prior to contractual adjustments and bad debts. Both gross revenue and costs are based on charges at date/time of service. Community health improvement services and community benefit operations costing methodology: The costs for these programs were derived from the actual costs incurred in these areas. Subsidized health services costing methodology: The expenditures are determined based on actual invoices or dollar amounts spent and charged to these departments, reduced by any grant revenues restricted for these services, if any. Research costing methodology: Research expenses were taken from the income and expense statements for the research departments, derived from the accounting system. Cash and In-Kind contributions to community groups costing methodology: Contribution expenditures are based on actual invoices that were captured and reported for this program, derived from the accounting system.
Schedule H, Part II Community Building Activities	SSM Health Care St Louis participates in a wide array of community and civic organizations in the promotion of health care and community building activities. Specific activities reported in Part II of Schedule H include the following: Community Building - Economic Development: Hospital presidents and executives are involved with regional and local chambers of commerce actively serving on boards and committees. Specifically, SSM employees hold Board positions on the St. Louis Regional Chamber, North County Incorporated, Northwest Chamber of Commerce, Clayton Chamber of Commerce, Fenton Chamber of Commerce, Greater St. Charles Chamber of Commerce and the Greater Western St. Charles Chamber of Commerce. Community Building - Coalition Building: SSM hospitals provide literature and other small giveaways for school nurses, donations to parish picnics and donations to a special education prom; Parish nurses supported by SSM and their respective parishes, do 100% of their work in their churches. Parish nurses serve as health educator, health counselor, resource and referral person, and coordinator of health related services in their church. They offer assistance to individuals in modifying life styles, adjusting to disease, and coping with chronic illness. They provide emotional and spiritual support in times of anxiety, crisis, and terminal illness.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount	Bad debt expense reported in the accounting system, adjusted for bad debt recoveries, was used, multiplied by the cost to charge ratio using IRS Worksheet 2, Ratio of patient costs to charges.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense Methodology	SSM Health Care St. Louis did not make an estimate of the organization's bad debt attributable to patients eligible under the organization's financial assistance policy.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote	SSM Health Care St. Louis is part of the SSM Health consolidated audit. The footnote that references bad debt expense in the December 31, 2014 consolidated audit is contained on page 16 and 17 of the attached financial statements.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs	The cost of providing care to Medicare eligible patients is greater than the reimbursement that Medicare allows on the Medicare cost report. SSM Health Care St. Louis considers this shortfall as a component of community benefit because the reimbursement is not negotiated and services are provided regardless of the patients' ability to pay. The Medicare costs reported on Line 6 were obtained from the 2014 Medicare cost report.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance	SSM Health Care St. Louis has established a written credit and collection policy and procedures. The billing and collection policies and practices reflect the mission and values of SSM Health, including our special concern for people who are poor and vulnerable. SSM Health Care St. Louis embraces its responsibility to serve the communities in which it participates by establishing sound business practices. SSM Health Care St. Louis' billing and collection practices will be fairly and consistently applied. All staff and vendors are expected to treat all patients consistently and fairly regardless of their ability to pay. They respond to patients in a prompt and courteous manner regarding any questions about their bills and provide notification of the availability of financial assistance. All uninsured patients will be provided a standard discount for medically necessary inpatient and outpatient services, including services provided at off-campus outpatient sites. The hospital determined the amount of the discount based on the local managed care market, applicable statutory requirements and other relevant local circumstances. The rate must be no less than the lowest effective discount rate and no greater than the highest effective discount rate for the current managed care contracts of the hospital. Uninsured patients may also qualify for an additional discount based upon financial need under the system financial assistance policy. All accounts due from the patient will receive a statement after discharge or after final adjudication from patient's insurance. Generally the patient will receive 4 months (120 days) of in-house collection efforts (including early out vendors) and 12 months of bad debt collection efforts. The hospital will make Reasonable Efforts to determine FAP eligibility including: 1. The financial assistance summary will be included with each billing statement 2. Extraordinary Collection Activity (ECAs) may not occur until bad debt placement and only after the expiration of the notification period. 3. ECAs must be suspended if a guarantor submits a FAP application during the application period. 4. Reasonable measures must be taken to reverse ECAs if the application is approved which may include refunding any payments made in excess of amounts owed as an FAP-eligible individual. 5. Bad Debt vendors will gain written approval from SSM prior to engaging in ECAs. SSM will review the accounts and verify satisfactory completion of reasonable efforts during the notification and application period. A waiver is not considered reasonable efforts. Obtaining a signed waiver that an individual does not wish to apply for FAP assistance or receive FAP application information will not meet the requirement to make "reasonable efforts" to determine whether the individual is FAP-eligible before engaging in ECAs. All outside collection agencies must comply with state and federal laws, comply with the association of credit and collection professional's code of ethics and professional responsibility and comply with SSM Health Care St. Louis' collection and financial assistance policies.

Schedule H, Part VI, Line 2 Needs assessment	SSM Health (SSM) participates in Community Benefit according to our vision. Through our participation in the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, communities, especially those that are economically, physically, and socially marginalized, will experience improved health in mind, body, spirit and environment. In the tradition of our founders, the Franciscan Sisters of Mary, caring for those in greatest need remains our organizational priority. Today our System Board monitors Community Benefit efforts, and views achievement of our vision as a primary responsibility. The purpose of SSM's Community Benefit program is to assess and address community health needs. Making our communities healthier in measurable ways is always our goal. To fulfill this commitment, SSM's Community Benefit is divided into two parts: 1) Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), and 2) Community Benefit Inventory for Social Accountability (CBISA). The CHNA is an assessment and prioritization of community health needs and the adoption and implementation of strategies to address those needs. A CHNA is conducted every three years by each hospital according to the following steps: * Assess and prioritize community health needs: Gather CHNA data from secondary sources; obtain input from stakeholders representing the broad interests of the community through interviews and focus groups; use data to select top health priorities; and complete written CHNA. * Develop, adopt, and implement strategies to address top-health priorities: Establish strategies to address priorities; complete Strategic Implementation Plan; obtain Regional/Divisional Board approval; and integrate strategies into operational plan. * Make CHNA widely available to the public: Publish CHNA and summary document on hospital's website. * Monitor, track, and report progress on top health priorities: Collect data and evaluate progress; report to Regional/Divisional Board every six months and System Board every year; share findings with community stakeholders; and send results to finance for submission to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). CBISA is the gathering, collecting, and reporting of all data relating to community benefit activities and programs across the System. A CBISA is conducted every year by each hospital according to the following steps: * Collect and enter data: Send out emails reminding staff to submit activities; enter data into Lyon; and run reports to share with leaders. * Finalize and report on prior year: Enter all prior year data into Lyon by January 31; and communicate final prior year figures to IRS, System Board, and the community. System Office staff and leaders oversee and monitor SSM's Community Benefit Program, and ensure reporting is in compliance with IRS regulations. In collaboration with community stakeholders and partner organizations, all hospital CHNAs were completed, approved, and integrated into the organization's strategic plan. We continue to monitor and assess the progress of our local efforts in the spirit of caring for others and improving community health.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 3 Patient education of eligibility for assistance	All SSMH facilities will strive to provide exceptional health care services to all persons in need regardless of their ability to pay. All billing and collection policies reflect the mission and values of SSMH, including our special concern for people who are poor and vulnerable. SSMH facilities offer discounts for hospital services to all uninsured persons. Self-pay discounts apply to everyone who does not have health insurance, no matter their ability to pay. SSMH applies its charity care policies fairly and consistently. Each person is treated as an individual with specific needs for assistance without regard to payment. SSMH embraces its responsibility to serve the communities in which we participate by establishing sound business practices. Charity care is provided to patients based on a sliding scale for household incomes up to four times the federal poverty level. Patients whose household income is no more than two times the federal poverty level are eligible for free hospital services. In addition, an exception to the sliding scale is provided for a patient's balance due if the amount is too large to be reasonably paid through an installment plan over four years given the family income and expenses. Each entity providing medical service shall provide information to the public regarding its charity care policies and the qualification requirements for each of its facilities. When standard system notices and communication regarding charity care are available, these must be used. Modifications to the standard may be made to comply with state and local laws, as well as reflect culturally sensitive terminology for the policy. All notices are easy to understand by the general public, culturally appropriate and available in those languages that are prevalent in the community. They provide information about: * The patient's responsibility for payment, * The availability of financial assistance from public programs and entity charity care and payment arrangements, * The entity's charity policy and application process, and * Who to contact to get additional information or financial counseling. The following types of notices to the public are provided: * Signs in the emergency department, outpatient and inpatient registration and public waiting areas. * Brochures or fliers provided at time of registration and available in the financial counseling areas. * Notices sent with or on patient bills or communications sent to patients and guarantors related to medical services. * Applications provided to uninsured patients at the time of registration. The application for charity care, together with any instructions, must clearly state the policies regarding charity care, including excluded services, eligibility criteria and documentation requirements. Information about the entity's charity policies is also provided to public agencies.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 4 Community information	SSM Health Care St Louis defines its primary service area as the St Louis metropolitan statistical area (MSA), which includes the Missouri Counties of St. Louis, St. Charles, Jefferson, Franklin, Lincoln, and Warren and St. Louis City. Because we support a wide range of local markets and constituencies, demographics are also evaluated for our individual hospital service areas, service lines and clinical departments to ensure we focus on specific community health needs. The total population for the MSA was 2,113,512 for the St. Louis MSA. The overall population is projected to remain flat and/or decline with projected increases in the over 65 category offset by declines in other cohorts. The MSA has a lightly higher proportion of female population (51.6%) with the number of females of childbearing age expected to decline over the next 5 years. Distribution of race/ethnicity in the MSA is white/Caucasian: 74%; black/African-American: 19%; Hispanic: 3%; other: 4%. The St Louis MSA has a median household income of $69,077 with St. Louis city having the lowest median household income ($44,675). Of the St Louis MSA population, 31.3% have a Bachelor's degree or higher, with the St Louis County area having a higher percentage (38.3%) than St. Louis City (26.1%). The deficit of literacy skills among St. Louis City's population is almost double that of St Louis County or the state (13%). For St. Louis County, the percentage of the population living below the poverty level is 9.0% compared to the St. Louis City rate of 24.0%. Additional detailed information on the demographics of each community served by SSM Health St. Louis hospitals can be found in the hospital's CHNA in the Demographic and Socioeconomic Profile of the Community and Secondary Data Collection section, beginning on page 15.

Describe the organization's approach to providing community benefit: SSM Health (SSM) participates in Community Benefit according to our vision, Through our participation in the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, communities, especially those that are economically, physically, and socially marginalized, will experience improved health in mind, body, spirit and environment. In the tradition of our founders, the Franciscan Sisters of Mary, caring for those in greatest need remains our organizational priority. Today our System Board monitors Community Benefit efforts, and views achievement of our vision as a primary responsibility. The purpose of SSM's Community Benefit program is to assess and address community health needs. Making our communities healthier in measurable ways is always our goal. To fulfill this commitment, SSM's Community Benefit is divided into two parts: 1) Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), and 2) Community Benefit Inventory for Social Accountability (CBISA).
Form 990, Part III, Line 4b Description of Program Service (Continued)	The CHNA is an assessment and prioritization of community health needs and the adoption and implementation of strategies to address those needs. A CHNA is conducted every three years by each hospital according to the following steps: * Assess and prioritize community health needs: Gather CHNA data from secondary sources; obtain input from stakeholders representing the broad interests of the community through interviews and focus groups; use data to select top health priorities; and complete written CHNA. * Develop, adopt, and implement strategies to address top-health priorities: Establish strategies to address priorities; complete Strategic Implementation Plan; obtain Regional/Divisional Board approval; and integrate strategies into operational plan. * Make CHNA widely available to the public: Publish CHNA and summary document on hospital's website. * Monitor, track, and report progress on top health priorities: Collect data and evaluate progress; report to Regional/Divisional Board every six months and System Board every year; share findings with community stakeholders; and send results to finance for submission to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). CBISA is the gathering, collecting, and reporting of all data relating to community benefit activities and programs across the System. A CBISA is conducted every year by each hospital according to the following steps: * Collect and enter data: Send out emails reminding staff to submit activities; enter data into Lyon; and run reports to share with leaders. * Finalize and report on prior year: Enter all prior year data into Lyon by January 31; and communicate final prior year figures to IRS, System Board, and the community. System Office staff and leaders oversee and monitor SSM's Community Benefit Program, and ensure reporting is in compliance with IRS regulations. In collaboration with community stakeholders and partner organizations, all hospital CHNAs were completed, approved, and integrated into the organization's strategic plan. We continue to monitor and assess the progress of our local efforts in the spirit of caring for others and improving community health. Description of CHNA community benefit programs: For more information on the CHNA community benefit programs provided by SSM Health Care St Louis, please see Schedule H, Part V.

Community Benefit initiatives build community capacity and individual empowerment through community organizing, leadership development, partnerships, and coalition building. Our Community Health programs provide compassionate and competent care while they promote health improvement by reaching directly into the community to ensure that low-income and under-served persons can access health care services. Focusing on a broad definition of health, SSM Health Care St Louis' hospitals, clinics and programs provide medical and mental health services, health education, health management, prevention, referrals, insurance enrollment and in-home primary care services and support, while fostering collaboration and incorporating Community Benefit strategies.
