Form and Line Reference	Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C:	CHARITY CARE PROGRAM- THE COMMUNITY (PARTNERS) CARE PROGRAM A KEY COMPONENT OF ALLINA'S MISSION IS TO DELIVER COMPASSIONATE, HIGH QUALITY, AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE SERVICES AND TO ADVOCATE FOR THOSE WITH LIMITED FINANCIAL MEANS. ALLINA STRIVES TO ENSURE THAT THE FINANCIAL CAPACITY OF PEOPLE WHO NEED HEALTH CARE SERVICES DOES NOT PREVENT THEM FROM SEEKING OR RECEIVING MEDICAL CARE. THEREFORE, ALLINA HAS SEVERAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS INCLUDING A ROBUST CHARITY CARE PROGRAM KNOWN AS THE COMMUNITY (PARTNERS) CARE PROGRAM WHICH PROVIDES FREE CARE TO ALL PERSONS AT OR BELOW 275 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES AS PUBLISHED ANNUALLY IN THE FEDERAL REGISTRAR.THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM ALSO PROVIDES FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES FOR THE "MEDICALLY INDIGENT". THE ORGANIZATION EXTENDS THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM IN INSTANCES THE ORGANIZATION HAS DETERMINED THE PATIENT IS UNABLE TO PAY SOME OR ALL OF THEIR MEDICAL BILLS DUE TO CATASTROPHIC CIRCUMSTANCES EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE INCOME OR ASSETS THAT OTHERWISE EXCEED THE GENERALLY APPLICABLE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR THE FREE CARE PROGRAM OR THE DISCOUNTED CARE PROGRAM (DESCRIBED BELOW) UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM GUIDELINES. DISCOUNTED CARE PROGRAM - UNINSURED DISCOUNT PROGRAM ALLINA ALSO HAS A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM KNOWN AS THE UNINSURED DISCOUNT PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES A DISCOUNT ON BILLED CHARGES TO UNINSURED PATIENTS, AND INSURED PATIENTS WHO RECEIVE UNINSURED TREATMENT, FOR MEDICALLY NECESSARY CARE RECEIVED FROM ANY ALLINA HOSPITAL, HOSPITAL BASED CLINIC AND WHOLLY-OWNED AMBULATORY SURGERY CENTERS. THE UNINSURED DISCOUNT PROGRAM DOES NOT USE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY. INSTEAD, UNINSURED PATIENTS AND INSURED PATIENTS WHO RECEIVE UNINSURED TREATMENT ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A DISCOUNT BASED UPON THEIR INCOME LEVEL AND THE LOCATION OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED. ALL PATIENTS WITH AN ANNUAL INCOME AT OR BELOW $125,000 ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A DISCOUNT. THE DISCOUNT IS ALSO GENERALLY EXTENDED TO PATIENTS WITH AN ANNUAL INCOME ABOVE $125,000. THERE ARE THREE DISCOUNTS LEVELS ESTABLISHED, ONE FOR METRO HOSPITALS, ONE FOR REGIONAL HOSPITALS, AND ONE FOR HOSPITAL BASED CLINICS WITHIN THE ALLINA SYSTEM.ALLINA HEALTH'S UNINSURED DISCOUNT PROGRAM PROVIDES A SUBSTANTIAL DISCOUNT TO BILLED CHARGES FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS. THE DISCOUNT IS UPDATED ANNUALLY AND IS BASED ON THE REIMBURSEMENT RATE OF THE NON-GOVERNMENTAL THIRD PARTY PAYER WHICH PROVIDED ALLINA HEALTH THE MOST REVENUE DURING THE PREVIOUS YEAR.

PART I, LINE 7:	WHERE APPROPRIATE, THE ORGANIZATION USES A RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COSTS TO CHARGES ("COST TO CHARGE RATIO") TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED FOR PART I, LINE 7 (THE TABLE).
PART I, LINE 7G:	THE AMOUNT REPORTED AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO A PHYSICIAN CLINIC.
PART I, LN 7 COL(F):	BAD DEBT EXPENSE HAS NOT BEEN INCLUDED IN FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25 AND HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF CALCULATING THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN COLUMN 7F. IT HAS BEEN REPORTED AS A REDUCTION TO PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE ON FORM 990, PART VIII, LINE 2B.
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES:	COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIESUNDERSTANDING THAT GOOD HEALTH IS DEPENDENT ON SOCIETAL, COMMUNITY, AND FAMILY ENVIRONMENTS AS WELL AS INDIVIDUAL CHOICES, AND IS BIGGER THAN THE PROVISION OF HEALTH CARE, ALLINA HAS PURPOSEFULLY SET OUT TO ENGAGE IN COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES THAT ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH PROBLEMS SUCH AS POVERTY, HOMELESSNESS AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT MANY OF THESE ROOT CAUSES ARE DIRECTLY TIED TO POOR HEALTH IF GONE IGNORED, PARTICULARLY AMONG LOW-INCOME, MINORITY POPULATIONS. BELOW ARE EXAMPLES OF WAYS THAT OUR ELEVEN HOSPITALS PARTICIPATED IN COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES IN 2014:WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENTMANY OF ALLINA HEALTH HOSPITALS HAVE TRAIN-TO-WORK PROGRAMS AS A MEANS TO BUILD A FUTURE WORKFORCE WITHIN AND OUTSIDE OF OUR ORGANIZATION. BY FOCUSING ON BUILDING THE WORKFORCE, THE GOAL IS THAT THERE WILL BE AN INCREASE IN PERSONAL EMPLOYMENT AND ECONOMIC AND WORKFORCE STABILITY. MULTIPLE ALLINA HEALTH HOSPITALS HAVE DEVELOPED PARTNERSHIPS WITH LOCAL SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS IN THE PROCESS. COMMUNITY COALITIONSALL ALLINA HEALTH HOSPITALS PARTICIPATE ON LOCAL COMMUNITY COALITIONS, SUCH AS COMMUNITY HEALTH ADVISORY COUNCILS, AS A WAY TO RESPOND TO COMMUNITY NEEDS THROUGH COLLABORATION AND PARTNERSHIP. THESE COALITIONS PROVIDE THE HOSPITALS THE OPPORTUNITIES TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS AND DETERMINE HOW BEST TO LEVERAGE LOCAL RESOURCES TO ADDRESS COMMUNITY NEEDS THAT EXIST OUTSIDE THE TRADITIONAL REALM OF HEALTH CARE. ALLINA HEALTH HOSPITALS ARE PRESENT AT THOSE DISCUSSIONS TO DETERMINE THE ROLE HEALTH CARE CAN PLAY. DISASTER PREPAREDNESSIN ADDITION TO COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES THAT RELATED TO ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH, ALLINA HEALTH HOSPITALS ENGAGED IN AND LED DISASTER PREPAREDNESS PLANNING TO ENSURE SAFETY, EFFICIENCY AND EXCELLENT HEALTH CARE DURING TIMES OF TRAGEDY AND/OR UPSET. THIS INCLUDED PLANNING MEETINGS AND COMMUNITY MEETINGS/TRAININGS, AMONG OTHER THINGS. THESE PROGRAMS AND SERVICES, AMONG OTHERS, PROVIDE THE HOSPITALS WITHIN OUR SYSTEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO IMPACT COMMUNITY HEALTH BEFORE IT BECOMES PROBLEMATIC AND EXPENSIVE. IN ADDITION, THIS IMPORTANT WORK IS SUPPORTED BY THE MISSION OF OUR ORGANIZATION AND IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY AS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATION. WE WILL CONTINUE TO CONTRIBUTE TO IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE THROUGH THE PROMOTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH.
PART III, LINE 4:	FOOTNOTES TO AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENT THAT DESCRIBE BAD DEBT EXPENSE ARE AS FOLLOWS:FOOTNOTE 2N. NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUETHE PROVISIONS FOR BAD DEBTS AND CHARITY CARE ARE BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING HISTORICAL BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE COVERAGE, AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. AFTER SATISFACTION OF AMOUNTS DUE FROM INSURANCE, THE SYSTEM FOLLOWS ESTABLISHED GUIDELINES FOR PLACING CERTAIN PAST DUE PATIENT BALANCES WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES, SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON COLLECTION EFFORTS AS DETERMINED BY THE SYSTEM.
PART III, LINE 8:	THE ORGANIZATION HAS MORE THAN ONE MEDICARE PROVIDER NUMBER AND THEREFORE AGGREGATED THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS AS THE SOURCE FOR THE AMOUNTS REPORTED ON PART III, LINES 5 & 6 AS OUTLINED IN THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS. FOR MEDICARE COST REPORTS, ALLINA USES A RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COSTS TO CHARGES (COST TO CHARGE RATIO) TO DETERMINE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS. GENERALLY, THE RATIO IS CALCULATED AS THE TOTAL MEDICARE ALLOWABLE PATIENT COSTS OVER THE TOTAL PATIENT CHARGES. MEDICARE CHARGES MULTIPLIED BY THIS RATIO EQUALS THE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS REPORTED IN THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO IS CALCULATED INDEPENDENTLY FOR EACH MEDICARE COST REPORT/PROVIDER NUMBER. ALLINA BELIEVES THAT AT LEAST SOME PORTION OF THE COSTS WE INCUR IN EXCESS OF PAYMENTS RECEIVED FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR PROVIDING MEDICAL SERVICES TO MEDICARE ENROLLEES AND BENEFICIARIES UNDER THE FEDERAL MEDICARE PROGRAM (SHORTFALL OR MEDICARE SHORTFALL) CONSTITUTES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. ALLINA'S PROVIDING OF THESE SERVICES CLEARLY LESSENS THE BURDENS OF GOVERNMENT BY ALLEVIATING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FROM HAVING TO DIRECTLY PROVIDE THESE MEDICAL SERVICES. AS DEMONSTRATED AND CALCULATED ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 7, OUR MEDICARE "ALLOWABLE COSTS" CLEARLY EXCEED THE PAYMENTS WE RECEIVE FOR PROVIDING THESE MEDICAL SERVICES UNDER THE MEDICARE PROGRAM. THE TRUE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR OUR PARTICIPATION IN THE CURRENT MEDICARE PROGRAM IS DEPENDENT ON HOW EFFICIENTLY AND COST EFFECTIVELY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT COULD OPERATE A DIRECT MEDICAL CARE MEDICARE PROGRAM OR ALTERNATIVELY THE COST TO THE GOVERNMENT TO CONTRACT OUT SUCH SERVICES THROUGH A COMPETITIVE BIDDING PROCESS IN THE OPEN MARKETS FOR THE SAME OR SIMILAR SERVICES FACTORING IN ITEMS SUCH AS QUALITY OF CARE, OUTCOMES AND SIMILAR IMPORTANT FACTORS AS COMPARED TO ALLINA'S ACTUAL COSTS OF PROVIDING THE MEDICAL CARE. THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL CALCULATION ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 7 SIGNIFICANTLY UNDERSTATES ALLINA'S ACTUAL MEDICARE SHORTFALL FOR TWO REASONS. FIRST, ALLINA INCURS SIGNIFICANT COSTS IN EXCESS OF PAYMENTS UNDER THE MEDICARE PROGRAM FOR PROVIDING CERTAIN SERVICES THAT ARE NOT SUBJECT TO MEDICARE COST REPORTING AND THEREFORE NOT REFLECTED IN OUR COST AMOUNTS ON LINE 6. SECOND, THE LINE 6 LIMITS OUR REPORTED COSTS TO ONLY MEDICARE "ALLOWABLE COSTS" AS SOLELY DETERMINED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT MEDICARE PROGRAM. FOR THESE TWO REASONS, THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL REPORTED ON LINE 7 SIGNIFICANTLY UNDERSTATES ALLINA'S ACTUAL MEDICARE SHORTFALL AND THE ACTUAL COST OF PROVIDING MEDICAL CARE TO MEDICARE PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS. WE ESTIMATE THESE TWO ITEMS UNDERSTATE ALLINA'S REPORTED MEDICARE SHORTFALL BY OVER $162 MILLION. WE BELIEVE A DIRECT MEDICAL SERVICE MEDICARE PROGRAM OPERATED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND THE COST TO THE GOVERNMENT TO CONTRACT OUT THE SERVICES UNDER A COMPETITIVE BIDDING PROCESS MAY EVEN PROVE TO BE MORE EXPENSIVE TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAN ALLINA'S REPORTED MEDICARE "ALLOWABLE COSTS" ON LINE 6 GIVEN OUR QUALITY OF CARE, SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES AND THE SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACTUAL COSTS WE INCUR AND MEDICARE "ALLOWABLE COSTS" IN PROVIDING CARE UNDER THE MEDICARE PROGRAM. THEREFORE, WE FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A TRUE COMMUNITY BENEFIT COMPONENT TO OUR PARTICIPATION IN THE FEDERAL MEDICARE PROGRAM.
PART III, LINE 9B:	THE ORGANIZATION'S WRITTEN DEBT COLLECTION POLICY AND COLLECTION PRACTICES APPLY UNIFORMLY TO ALL PATIENTS AND INCLUDE PROVISIONS RELATED TO THE ORGANIZATIONS CHARITY CARE PROGRAM AND OTHER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. IF A PATIENT IS KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM THEY ARE AUTOMATICALLY AFFORDED THE PROGRAM BENEFITS FOR UP TO ONE YEAR AS THEY WOULD HAVE ALREADY PROVIDED INFORMATION NECESSARY FOR US TO MAKE SUCH A DETERMINATION. FOR EXAMPLE, A PATIENT THAT QUALIFIED FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM BEFORE RECEIVING SERVICES WOULD NOT RECEIVE A BILLING STATEMENT FOR THE MEDICAL SERVICES PROVIDED. IN THE CASE OF A PATIENT QUALIFYING FOR THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM AFTER RECEIVING SERVICES AND THE COMMENCEMENT OF CERTAIN COLLECTION ACTIVITIES, THE AMOUNTS ARE DISCHARGED AS CHARITY CARE AND ALL COLLECTION ACTIVITIES CEASE. AS DISCUSSED IN THE RESPONSE TO PART VI, LINE 3, PATIENTS ARE INFORMED AND EDUCATED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS INCLUDING THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM AS PART OF THE ROUTINE REGISTRATION, ADMISSION, INTAKE, BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCESSES. IF A PATIENT DESIRES TO APPLY FOR THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM, PERSONNEL WILL SEND AN APPLICATION TO THE PATIENT. IF COLLECTION ACTIVITIES HAVE COMMENCED, THOSE ACTIVITIES WILL BE SUSPENDED FOR THIRTY (30) DAYS TO ALLOW TIME FOR THE APPLICATION PROCESS. COLLECTION ACTIVITY MAY RESUME IF, AFTER 30 DAYS, A COMPLETED APPLICATION HAS NOT BEEN RECEIVED. IN THE CASE OF AN INCOMPLETE APPLICATION, THE ORGANIZATION MAY RESUME COLLECTION ACTIVITIES IF REQUESTS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ARE NOT MET WITH A TIMELY RESPONSE. IF AN APPLICANT DOES NOT MEET THE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA AND THE APPLICATION IS DENIED, COLLECTION ACTIVITY MAY RESUME UPON DENIAL. HOWEVER, THE PATIENT MAY STILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR OTHER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS WHICH ARE APPLIED AS WARRANTED BASED UPON THE INFORMATION PROVIDED. SUCH ACTIVITIES ARE FULLY EXPLAINED TO THE PATIENT DURING THE COLLECTION PROCESS.
SCH H, PART III, SECTION A, LINE 3	THE ORGANIZATION HAS ADOPTED HEALTHCARE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION [HFMA] STATEMENT NO. 15, VALUATION AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION OF CHARITY CARE AND BAD DEBTS BY INSTITUTIONAL HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS (STATEMENT 15). AS DISCLOSED IN THE FOOTNOTES TO THE ORGANIZATION'S AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IN RESPONSE TO PART III, LINE 4, THE PROVISIONS FOR BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE ARE BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING HISTORICAL AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN HEALTHCARE COVERAGE, AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. THEREFORE, THE BAD DEBT AMOUNT STATED FOR FINANCIAL REPORTING PURPOSES IS REPORTED "NET" OF ANY ANTICIPATED PATIENT DISCOUNTS TO WHICH THE PATIENT MAY BE ELIGIBLE INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE UNINSURED DISCOUNT PROGRAM (DISCUSSED ABOVE) AND REFLECTS THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT REPORTED AS "NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE" DURING THE CURRENT PERIOD OR ANY PREVIOUS PERIOD. THIS DOES NOT NECESSARILY EQUAL THE "COST" TO PROVIDE THE MEDICAL SERVICES. ALSO, NOTE THAT AMOUNTS RELATED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE QUALIFIED UNDER THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM ARE NOT INCLUDED IN EITHER NET PATIENT REVENUE OR IN BAD DEBT EXPENSE. IN OTHER WORDS, THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE REPORTED AS A REDUCTION TO PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE IN THE REVENUE SECTION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE FORM 990 DOES NOT INCLUDE AMOUNTS RELATED TO QUALIFIED CHARITY CARE PATIENTS AND IS STATED AT THE "NET" EXPECTED OR ANTICIPATED COLLECTION AMOUNT WHICH MAY BE SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT THAN PATIENT CHARGES DUE TO THE APPLICATION OF DISCOUNTS SUCH AS THOSE PROVIDED UNDER THE UNINSURED DISCOUNT PROGRAM. THIS AMOUNT ALSO CONSTITUTES A DIFFERENT AMOUNT THAN THE ORGANIZATION'S ACTUAL COST TO PROVIDE THE MEDICAL SERVICES. TO ARRIVE AT THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 2 BAD DEBT "AT COST", THE ORGANIZATION HAS APPLIED A RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES (COST TO CHARGE RATIO) TO THE ESTIMATED PATIENT CHARGE AMOUNT INCLUDED IN BAD DEBT AFTER REMOVING THE ANTICIPATED DISCOUNTS. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO IS CALCULATED INDEPENDENTLY FOR EACH HOSPITAL OR OPERATING UNIT. THE RESULTING BAD DEBT (AT COST) AMOUNT FOR EACH HOSPITAL AND OPERATING UNIT IS THEN AGGREGATED TO ARRIVE AT THE BAD DEBT (AT COST) REPORTED ON LINE 2. THIS PROCESS PROVIDES A VERY CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE OF THE ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT (AT COST). THE ORGANIZATION HAS A ROBUST PROCESS FOR ADMINISTERING THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS INCLUDING THE CHARITY CARE AND UNINSURED DISCOUNT PROGRAM DESCRIBED IN FURTHER DETAIL IN PART VI, LINE 3. EACH PATIENT IS PROVIDED NUMEROUS OPPORTUNITIES TO APPLY TO THE COMMUNITY CARE PROGRAM AND TO PARTICIPATE, IF QUALIFIED, TO RECEIVE FREE OR DISCOUNTED MEDICAL CARE OR BE ENROLLED IN A GOVERNMENT SPONSORED MEDICAL CARE PROGRAM UNDER THE ORGANIZATIONS VARIOUS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. THE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS INCLUDES IDENTIFYING ANY PATIENT WITH A FINANCIAL CONCERN, AS WELL AS INFORMING, COUNSELING, QUALIFYING AND ASSISTING PATIENTS TO APPLY FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE AND OTHER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. ALTHOUGH EACH PATIENT IS PROVIDED NUMEROUS OPPORTUNITIES TO RECEIVE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND INFORMED MULTIPLE TIMES OF THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM PRIOR TO OUR CLASSIFYING THE AMOUNTS AS BAD DEBT, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT PATIENTS WHO WOULD QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE DO NOT COMPLETE THE APPLICATION. THIS AMOUNT IS NOT REASONABLY ESTIMABLE. AS A TAX-EXEMPT HOSPITAL ORGANIZATION WE ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE NECESSARY MEDICAL CARE REGARDLESS OF THE PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY FOR THE SERVICES PROVIDED. DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND OUR CONTROL, A PERSON WHO WOULD OTHERWISE QUALIFY UNDER THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM MAY NOT PROVIDE US THE NECESSARY INFORMATION, QUALIFY FOR THE PROGRAM, AND RECEIVE FREE CARE ALLOWING US TO CLASSIFY AND QUANTIFY IT ACCORDINGLY AND AS SUCH. ULTIMATELY, THOSE AMOUNTS ARE WRITTEN-OFF AND REPORTED AS BAD DEBT EXPENSE. ANY METHODOLOGY WE COULD USE TO QUANTIFY AND PROVIDE AN ESTIMATE OF HOW MUCH BAD DEBT (AT COST AND IF ANY) REPORTED ON LINE 2 REASONABLY COULD BE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PERSONS WHO LIKELY WOULD QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY AND FOR US TO PROVIDE AN ESTIMATE OF WHAT PORTION OF BAD DEBT, IF ANY, THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES SHOULD CONSTITUTE COMMUNITY BENEFIT WOULD BE PURELY SPECULATIVE, IMPRECISE AND SUBJECT TO INHERENT METHODOLOGY FLAWS. WHILE WE FIRMLY BELIEVE, FOR THE REASONS STATED ABOVE, THAT SOME COMPONENT OF OUR REPORTED BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) ON LINE 2 CONSTITUTES AMOUNTS RELATED TO PERSONS WHO LIKELY WOULD QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM, WE CANNOT REASONABLY QUANTIFY THE AMOUNT AND RESPECTFULLY DECLINE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE AN AMOUNT. THEREFORE, WE HAVE REPORTED ZERO OR NONE FOR FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 3.
PART VI, LINE 2:	IN 2012, PER NEW IRS REQUIREMENTS FOR NOT-FOR-PROFIT HOSPITALS, ALLINA HEALTH BEGAN TO PLAN AND IMPLEMENT THE 2013 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR EACH OF THE HOSPITALS IN THE SYSTEM. THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT PLAN WAS BASED ON A SET OF BEST PRACTICES FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENTS DEVELOPED BY THE CATHOLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATION WITH THE PURPOSE OF IDENTIFYING TWO TO THREE REGIONAL PRIORITY AREAS TO FOCUS ON FOR FY 20142016. THE PROCESS WAS DESIGNED TO RELY ON EXISTING PUBLIC DATA, DIRECTLY ENGAGE COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS AND COLLABORATE WITH LOCAL PUBLIC HEALTH AND OTHER HEALTH PROVIDERS. THERE WERE THREE STAGES INVOLVED DURING THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT: DATA REVIEW AND SETTING PRIORITIES, COMMUNITY HEALTH DIALOGUES AND COMMUNITY ASSETS INVENTORY, AND ACTION PLANNING. THE FIRST PHASE, IN FALL 2012,COMMITTEES WERE FORMED AT EACH HOSPITAL TO REVIEW EXISTING HEALTH-RELATED DATA. DIVERSE STAKEHOLDERS REVIEWED THREE EXISTING DATASETS AND THEN DEVELOPED AN INITIAL LIST OF COMMUNITY HEALTH ISSUES. ASSESSMENT STAKEHOLDERS USED THE HANLON METHOD, A SYSTEMATIC PRIORITIZATION PROCESS, TO RANK THE HEALTH-RELATED ISSUES BASED ON THREE CRITERIA: SIZE OF THE PROBLEM, SERIOUSNESS OF THE PROBLEM, AND ESTIMATED EFFECTIVENESS OF THE SOLUTION AND WERE THEN ASKED TO CONSIDER THE NUMERICAL RANKINGS GIVEN TO EACH ISSUE ALONG WITH A SET OF DISCUSSION QUESTIONS TO CHOOSE THE FINAL PRIORITY ISSUES. IN THE SECOND PHASE DURING EARLY 2013, 277 LOCAL RESIDENTS AND STAKEHOLDERS FROM EIGHT ALLINA HEALTH REGIONS PARTICIPATED IN COMMUNITY HEALTH DIALOGUES FACILITATED BY AN EXTERNAL AGENCY, WILDER CENTER FOR COMMUNITIES. STAKEHOLDERS WERE DIVERSE IN AGE, RACE/ETHNICITY, AND EMPLOYMENT AND REPRESENTED SECTORS SUCH AS SCHOOLS, BUSINESS, FAITH-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, AND ADVOCACY ORGANIZATIONS. A NUMBER OF STAKEHOLDERS IDENTIFIED THEMSELVES AS HAVING EXPERTISE IN HEALTH-RELATED AREAS. THE DIALOGUES USED A WORLD CAFE MODEL OF DISCUSSION, WHICH ALLOWED PARTICIPANTS TO DISCUSS UP TO THREE TOPICS IDENTIFIED AS IMPORTANT HEALTH CONCERNS IN THEIR REGION. KEY THEMES FROM THE DIALOGUES WERE IDENTIFIED THROUGH ANALYSIS OF INDIVIDUAL DISCUSSION GUIDES AND SMALL GROUP NOTES. EACH REGION RECEIVED A SUMMARY AND ACTION IDEAS.IN THE FINAL PHASE DURING SUMMER 2013, EACH FACILITY ENGAGED IN ACTION PLANNING SPECIFIC TO THE ISSUES AND PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED IN THEIR CHNA PROCESS. IN TOTAL, MORE THAN 500 DIVERSE STAKEHOLDERS WERE ENGAGED IN DATA REVIEW, PRIORITIZATION OR COMMUNITY DIALOGUES. AS A HEALTH SYSTEM, THREE COMMON THEMES WERE IDENTIFIED ACROSS THE SYSTEM FOR COLLECTIVE ACTION DURING 2014-2016: HEALTHY EATING, ACTIVE LIVING, AND MENTAL WELLNESS. ALL ALLINA HEALTH ASSESSMENTS AND ACTION PLANS WERE APPROVED BY LOCAL FACILITIES AND THE ALLINA HEALTH BOARD OF DIRECTORS BY DECEMBER 2013.COPIES OF EACH FACILITY'S NEEDS ASSESSMENT REPORT AND ACTION PLAN CAN BE FOUND AT: HTTP://WWW.ALLINAHEALTH.ORG/ABOUT-US/COMMUNITY-INVOLVEMENT/NEED-ASSESSMENTS/2014-2016-COMMUNITY-HEALTH-NEEDS-ASSESSMENT-AND-IMPLEMENTATION-PLANS/
PART VI, LINE 3:	A KEY COMPONENT OF ALLINA'S MISSION IS TO DELIVER COMPASSIONATE, HIGH QUALITY, AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE SERVICES AND TO ADVOCATE FOR THOSE WITH LIMITED FINANCIAL MEANS. ALLINA STRIVES TO ENSURE THAT THE FINANCIAL CAPACITY OF PEOPLE WHO NEED HEALTH CARE SERVICES DOES NOT PREVENT THEM FROM SEEKING OR RECEIVING MEDICAL CARE.

SCHEDULE J, LINE 4(A) & (B)	ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES: DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS - TERMS AND CONDITIONS: ALLINA SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN (SERP) THIS PLAN WAS AMENDED EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 31, 2008, SUCH THAT NO FUTURE BENEFITS ACCRUE FOR SERVICE AFTER THAT DATE. ELIGIBLE ALLINA EXECUTIVES PARTICIPATED IN A DEFINED CONTRIBUTION SERP. EMPLOYER CREDITS WERE MADE EACH YEAR TO THEIR SERP BALANCE ACCORDING TO THE FOLLOWING SCHEDULE: EXEC YRS OF SERVICE CONTRIBUTION % OF PENSIONABLE EARNINGS 0-5 2.75% 6-10 3.50% 11+ 4.75% EXECUTIVES WERE ALSO CREDITED AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE EXCESS AMOUNT THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN CREDITED TO THE PENSION ACCOUNT PLAN WERE IT NOT FOR THE QUALIFIED PLAN COMPENSATION LIMITS. DEPOSITS EARN THE INVESTMENT RATE OF RETURN EQUAL TO THE PENSION ACCOUNT PLAN CREDITING RATE AS DECLARED BY ALLINA. THE CURRENT RATE IS 4%. THE PARTICIPANT VESTS AFTER THREE YEARS OF EXECUTIVE SERVICE PROVIDED THAT IF THE PARTICIPANT TERMINATES EMPLOYMENT WITH ALLINA PRIOR TO AGE 65 FOR ANY REASON OTHER THAN ELIMINATION OF POSITION, THE PARTICIPANT MUST FULFILL THE TERMS OF A COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE. BENEFITS ARE PAID AS A SINGLE LUMP-SUM AMOUNT UPON AGE 65, RETIREMENT, OR JOB ELIMINATION. IN THE CASE OF OTHER VOLUNTARY TERMINATIONS, PAYMENT IS DELAYED UNTIL COMPLETION OF THE TWO-YEAR NON-COMPETE PERIOD. THE SERP IS PAYABLE FROM ALLINA'S GENERAL ASSETS. IF ALLINA BECOMES INSOLVENT, THE PARTICIPANT WILL BE AN UNSECURED CREDITOR AND WILL HAVE NO PREFERRED CLAIM TO ANY ASSETS. ALLINA EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT BENEFIT RESTORATION PLAN ELIGIBLE ALLINA EXECUTIVES PARTICIPATE IN A DEFERRED COMPENSATION RETIREMENT PLAN. EXECUTIVES ARE CREDITED AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE EXCESS AMOUNT THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN CREDITED TO THE ALLINA RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN WERE IT NOT FOR THE QUALIFIED PLAN COMPENSATION LIMITS. EMPLOYER CREDITS ARE MADE EACH YEAR TO THEIR ACCOUNT BALANCE ACCORDING TO THE FOLLOWING SCHEDULE AS OF THE END OF THE PLAN YEAR: PARTICIPANT'S YEARS OF VESTING SERVICE APPLICABLE PERCENTAGE LESS THAN 1 0% 1-5 5.0% 6-10 5.5% 11-15 6.0% 16 OR MORE 6.5% DEPOSITS EARN THE INVESTMENT RATE OF RETURN EQUAL TO THE INVESTMENT OPTIONS SELECTED BY THE PARTICIPANT WHICH ARE THE SAME OPTIONS AVAILABLE UNDER THE QUALIFIED PLAN. A PARTICIPANT WHO HAS COMPLETED AT LEAST TWO YEARS OF SERVICE BECOMES VESTED IN THE PORTION OF HIS OR HER ACCOUNT ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE ANNUAL CREDIT FOR A PARTICULAR YEAR AS OF JANUARY 15 OF THE YEAR FOLLOWING THE CALENDAR YEAR IN WHICH THE ANNUAL CREDIT IS EARNED. IN THE EVENT OF TERMINATION (OTHER THAN BECAUSE OF DEATH) PRIOR TO AGE 67, THE DISTRIBUTION DATE SHALL BE AS SOON AS ADMINISTRATIVELY POSSIBLE AFTER TERMINATION IN THE FORM OF A LUMP SUM PAYMENT. THE PLAN IS PAYABLE FROM ALLINA'S GENERAL ASSETS. IF ALLINA BECOMES INSOLVENT, THE PARTICIPANT WILL BE AN UNSECURED CREDITOR AND WILL HAVE NO PREFERRED CLAIM TO ANY ASSETS. THIS PLAN WAS EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2009. EXECUTIVE MUTUAL FUND ACCOUNT PLAN PHYSICIAN MUTUAL FUND ACCOUNT PLAN THESE ACCOUNTS GIVE THE PARTICIPANT THE OPPORTUNITY FOR CAPITAL ACCUMULATION NOT FULLY AVAILABLE TO THEM THROUGH SOCIAL SECURITY OR THE GENERAL EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANS BECAUSE OF MAXIMUMS PLACED ON COMPENSATION THAT CAN BE RECOGNIZED UNDER FEDERAL LAW FOR PURPOSES OF CONTRIBUTIONS. THEY ALSO SERVE AS AN IMPORTANT NON-COMPETE INCENTIVE TO PARTICIPANTS. PRIOR TO THE YEAR IN WHICH CONTRIBUTIONS ARE MADE, THE PARTICIPANT MUST DESIGNATE A VESTING/PAYOUT DATE CONSISTENT WITH THE CONSTRAINTS OF THE PLANS AND FEDERAL DEFERRED COMPENSATION REGULATIONS. AFTER THE CONTRIBUTIONS ARE MADE, THE PARTICIPANT HAS A ONE-TIME LIMITED OPPORTUNITY TO EXTEND THE ELECTED PAYMENT DATE FOR AT LEAST FIVE YEARS. ONCE THE VESTING/PAYOUT DATE HAS BEEN REACHED, ALLINA WILL WITHHOLD THE APPROPRIATE TAXES AND THE BALANCE WILL BE PAID TO THE PARTICIPANT ON THEIR PAYCHECK AS SOON AS ADMINISTRATIVELY FEASIBLE. IF THE PARTICIPANT TERMINATES EMPLOYMENT VOLUNTARILY BEFORE AN AMOUNT IS PAID, PAYMENT WILL BE SUBJECT TO THE PARTICIPANT'S COMPLIANCE WITH A NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT WITH ALLINA FOR TWO YEARS AFTER TERMINATION. THE PARTICIPANT MAY ELECT FROM AMONG INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES THAT ARE SIMILAR TO THOSE AVAILABLE IN THE RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN. UNLIKE THE RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN, THE PARTICIPANT HAS THE STATUS AN UNSECURED CREDITOR OF ALLINA AND WILL NOT HAVE A PREFERRED CLAIM TO PAYMENT IN THE CASE OF THE COMPANY'S INABILITY TO PAY. HOWEVER, THE COMPANY DOES SET ASIDE ASSETS FOR ITS OBLIGATIONS BY ACTUALLY INVESTING THE PROMISED ASSETS CONSISTENT WITH PARTICIPANT ELECTIONS. EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE PLAN ALLINA PROVIDES SALARY CONTINUATION FOR EXECUTIVES WHOSE EMPLOYMENT HAS BEEN INVOLUNTARILY TERMINATED FOR REASONS OTHER THAN CAUSE OR POOR PERFORMANCE. THE LENGTH OF THE SEVERANCE PAY PERIOD IS DEFINED BY THE PLAN AND DEPENDS ON THE LEVEL OF THE EXECUTIVE POSITION. UNDER THE PLAN THE SEVERED EXECUTIVE ALSO COULD CONTINUE CERTAIN BENEFITS FOR A LIMITED PERIOD OF TIME. IN 2009 THE PLAN WAS AMENDED TO FURTHER RESTRICT SEVERANCE BENEFITS IN THE CASE THAT THE EXECUTIVE OBTAINS OTHER EMPLOYMENT DURING THE SEVERANCE PERIOD. ALLINA HEALTH PHYSICIAN DEFERRED AWARD PLAN (PDAP) ALLINA HEALTH ESTABLISHED THIS EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN TO PROVIDE DESIGNATED PHYSICIANS WITH ADDITIONAL DEFERRED COMPENSATION TO PROVIDE LONG TERM INCENTIVES TO REMAIN WITH THE COMPANY AND CONTRIBUTE TO ITS' SUCCESSFUL PERFORMANCE. SELECT PHYSICIANS ARE ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE AFTER ONE FULL CALENDAR YEAR OF EMPLOYMENT AND BE WORKING A .5 FTE OR GREATER AS OF THE DECEMBER 31ST OF THE PLAN YEAR FOR WHICH THE CONTRIBUTION IS PROVIDED. THE PLAN ANNUAL FUNDING AWARD POOL IS DISCRETIONARY AND WILL BE DETERMINED AT THE END OF THE PLAN YEAR AND MUST BE APPROVED BY THE ALLINA HEALTH BOARD COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. ONCE THE AWARD POOL IS DETERMINED, THE AMOUNTS WILL BE ALLOCATED EQUALLY WITH ADJUSTMENTS MADE BASED ON THE PARTICIPANT'S FTE STATUS. A PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNT SHALL BECOME VESTED AND NON-FORFEITABLE UPON THE EARLIEST OF THE FOLLOWING: THE DATE THE PARTICIPANT HAS ATTAINED AGE 65 THE DATE A TERMINATED PARTICIPANT HAS REACHED AGE 55, COMPLETED TEN YEARS OF VESTING SERVICE AND SATISFIED A TWO-YEAR NON-COMPETE RESTRICTION THE DATE OF THE PARTICIPANT'S DEATH LUMP SUM DISTRIBUTIONS WILL OCCUR UPON VESTING AND ALL APPLICABLE TAXES WILL BE TAKEN. FOR ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS AGE 65 OR OLDER, NO FURTHER CONTRIBUTIONS WILL BE APPLIED TO THEIR ACCOUNT. INSTEAD, PARTICIPANTS OVER AGE 65 WILL RECEIVE A LUMP SUM PAYMENT OF THE PARTICIPANT'S PORTION OF THE AWARD POOL EACH PLAN YEAR. THIS WILL BE PAID DIRECTLY TO THE PARTICIPANT AS OF THE DATE THE AMOUNT WOULD OTHERWISE BE CREDITED TO THEIR ACCOUNT AND ALL APPLICABLE TAXES WILL BE TAKEN.
