FIN 48(ASC740) FOOTNOTE MHSC has adopted the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation requires that the entity account for and disclose in the financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position will more likely than not be substantiated upon examination. MHSC has evaluated the financial statement impact of tax positions taken or expected to be taken and determined it has no uncertain tax positions that would require tax assets or liabilities to be recorded in accordance with accounting guidance for either December 31, 2014 or 2013.

SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 4	The organization's Financial Statements include the following footnote: Patient accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. In evaluating the collectability of accounts receivable, MHSC analyzes its past history and identifies trends for each of its major payor sources of revenue to estimate the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts and provision of bad debts. Management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for doubtful accounts. For receivables associated with services provided to patients who have third party coverage, MHSC analyzes contractually due amounts and provides an allowance for doubtful accounts and a provision for bad debts, if necessary. For receivables associated with self pay patients (which includes both patients without insurance coverage and patients with deductibles and copayment balances due for which third party coverage exists for a portion of the bill), MHSC records a significant provision for bad debts in the period of service on the basis of its past experience, which indicates that many patients are unable or unwilling to pay the portion of their bill for which they are financially responsible. The difference between the discounted self pay rates provided by policy and the amounts actually collected after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted is charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts."
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 8	The extent to which any Medicare shortfall should be treated as community benefit: Medicare shortfalls are reported as a community benefit because the cost of providing healthcare to the patients exceeds the reimbursement. In summary, the healthcare services are provided or rendered at a loss. the methodology for calculating the loss is based on the as filed Medicare Cost Report. MEDICARE COSTING METHODOLOGY Medicare cost is based on the Medicare cost report which combines routine and ancillary costs. The calculation of cost for ancillary services are based on direct routine costs, allocated based on the Medicare patient days as a percent of the total patient days.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 9B	Charity Care provision: If a patient is deemed to qualify for 100% financial assistance the patient liability is written off entirely and there are no further collection activities. However, if a patient is qualified for a partial financial assistance write off (income falls between 201% and 350% of the federal poverty guidelines) the amount approved for financial assistance is written off based on a tier scale and written off as a partial assistance approval. This leaves the patient a small percentage as patient liability. Uninsured patients are encouraged to apply for Methodist's Charity Care Program (uncompensated care). Accounts will not be approved for legal action until the agency screens the patient for undercompensated care. Only those patients whose income exceeds 200% of federal poverty guidelines will be approved for legal action. Methodist Hospital will not garnish wages. It will, however, permit liens on homes or other real estate for the purpose of securing repayment at sale or refinancing.
