Northwestern Memorial Hospital	Sch H part V section B question 3 j The CHNA report also describes NMH background, charity care, the mission, CHNA goals and objectives, public dissemination plan, and development of the Implementation Plan.
Northwestern Memorial Hospital	Sch H Part V section B ques 5 As part of the CHNA, four focus groups were held among key stakeholders representing public health, physicians, other healthcare professionals, social service providers and other community leaders from throughout Chicago. A list of recommended participants for the NMH focus groups was provided by NMH. Potential participants were chosen because of their ability to identify primary concerns of the populations with whom they work, as well as the community overall. Focus group candidates were first contacted by letter to request their participation. Follow-up phone calls were then made to ascertain whether or not they would be able to attend. Confirmation calls were placed the day before the groups were scheduled to insure a reasonable turnout. Audio from the focus group sessions was recorded. Findings from the focus group represent qualitative rather than quantitative data. The group was designed to gather input from participants regarding their opinions and perceptions of the health of the residents in the area. Thus, these findings are based on perceptions, not facts. In total, focus groups held as part of this CHNA incorporated input form 26 key informants (or community stakeholders), with special emphasis on persons who work with or have special knowledge about vulnerable populations in South Chicago, North Chicago, Downtown/West Chicago, as well as throughout Cook County, including low-income individuals, minority populations, those with chronic conditions and other medically underserved residents. A list of these participants is provided below: a. La Rabida Children's Hospital b. Centers for New Horizon c. South East Chicago Commission d. KLEO Center e. North Park University f.

March of Dimes, Illinois Chapter To ensure that organizations impacting health in Chicago were meaningfully engaged in reviewing and interpreting the findings of the CHNA, developing priorities among the identified needs and forming a collaborative plan to address the top priority needs, a steering committee (the External Steering Committee) was established and maintained. Members include representatives of: a. Chicago Department of Public Health b. CommunityHealth (Chicago's largest free health clinic) c. Consortium to Lower Obesity in Chicago Children d.

Key Community Organizations & Leaders b. NMH Internal & External Steering Committee Members c. Northwestern University Institute of Public Health d. Northwestern Medicine Leadership
Northwestern Memorial Hospital	Sch H Part V Section B ques 11 NMH, members of the External Steering Committee, and key community partners collaborated to address the following priority health needs. Access to Health Services: NMH has worked to strengthen and increase patient affiliation with High-quality patient-centered medical homes. One response to increase access to health services was the creation of the Northwestern Follow-Up Clinic (NFC), which was designed to provide a bridge between emergency room care and ongoing care with a permanent medical home. The NFC provides timely and comprehensive follow-up care for patients without an established medical home, or with difficulty navigating new insurance plans selected under the Affordable Care Act, serving as an essential link to ongoing healthcare services for patients with chronic or complex medical conditions. NMH underwrote the operating losses for the NFC. NMH also continued to improve models for patient care coordination and for delivering care at the appropriate time and place. In response to the need to develop a robust primary care physician workforce, NMH supported the development of Education-Centered Medical Home (ECMH), which ensures a well prepared workforce of culturally competent and locally trained physicians. This unique residency program provides quality training in a community-based setting. Through our Financial Assistance Programs and Presumptive Eligibility policy, NMHC continues to provide access to medically necessary healthcare for those in need, regardless of the ability to pay and without regard to insurance status. In total, NMHC contributed $438.5 million to charity care, other unreimbursed care, research and education and other community benefit programs, or approximately 18.0 percent of patient service revenue in fiscal year 2014. Patients with no insurance or inadequate coverage are routinely referred from our Federally Qualified Health Center partners. In partnership with these organizations, NMH has developed an abbreviated process for these patients to apply for NMH's Financial Assistance Programs. Many of these patients receive free or substantially discounted care. Other patients receive care that is underwritten as part of NMHC's Community Service Expansion Program (CSEP), which covers costs associated with specialty consultations and services and hospital-based diagnostic services. In fiscal year 2014, NMH underwrote more than $330,000 in healthcare services under CSEP. Heart Disease and Stroke: NMH has worked to improve coordination of care for heart disease and stroke through strengthened high quality patient-centered medical homes. The Keep Your Heart Healthy Initiative is a collaborative and innovative program designed to identify Chicago residents most at risk for developing heart disease, and then work on an individual basis to empower those to make lifestyle changes to reduce their risk moving forward. The program links individuals with health care services and medical homes through referrals, so that risk factors can be controlled. Funding provided by Northwestern has increased access to high quality patient-centered medical homes through community programs like the Keep Your Heart Healthy initiative. NMHC is also dedicated to developing methods for an accurate and quick diagnosis of stroke. NMCH developed the Telestroke program to provide rapid access to stroke specialists on its medical staff and to improve the likelihood that patients received a timely, correct diagnosis for stroke symptoms. Telestroke has been implemented at remote NMHC sites as well as at Northwest Community Hospital in the northwest suburbs of Chicago and Norwegian American Hospital on the northwest side of Chicago. NMHC provides necessary technology and on-site training in Telestroke protocols to these participating hospitals. This enables hospitals to page NMG stroke specialists and receive immediate review of diagnostic images and a consult. Physicians providing the patient's direct care are then advised whether to administer a potentially lifesaving drug (tPA) and whether the severity of the patient's condition warrants transfer to a hospital specializing in stroke treatment. Because many insurance companies will not pay for remote consults, NMHC reimburses the physician for consult services. Technology is provided to participating hospitals below cost and technical support and maintenance and staff training are provided at no cost. Since the program began in 2013, more than 600 consults have been provided, and many patients have been transferred to NMH for tertiary stroke care, regardless of their insurance status. NMH continues to provide, participate and partner in community-based health education, nutrition and adult activity programs focused on reducing risk of heart disease and stroke, and seek ways to enhance cultural competency and accessibility of programs. The Alberto Culver Health Learning Center (HLC) is a comprehensive hospital-based health information library and resource center. Any member of the community can visit in person, online, or via phone to receive assistance and education from the staff of professional health educators and medical librarians, free of charge. The HLC's Heart Failure education program specifically targets patients that are being discharged from the hospital, so that those in need receive education on their diagnosis, treatment, and ways to manage and live with the disease. NMHC also collaborates with the Chicago Department of Public Health to advance its Healthy Chicago Healthy Hearts initiative aimed at improving awareness of risk factors for heart disease and encouraging healthy lifestyle choices through public policy and community-based education and health services. Smoking Cessation programs have proven very effective in decreasing the risk of heart disease and stroke. Northwestern Integrative Medicine offers a comprehensive Smoking Cessation Program, facilitated by an American Lung Association certified instructor with over 20 years of experience and proven success. Nutrition, Physical Activity and Weight: NMH continues to support the Humboldt Park program and expand curriculum to address nutrition, physical activity and weight. NMH collaborated with the Humboldt Park community to create a neighborhood-specific program called the Humboldt Park Healthy Community Initiative. This initiative was tailored to improve the health of the residents of Humboldt Park and takes into account specific needs and challenges of residents of Humboldt Park, which include limited health literacy, violence in the community and cultural and language barriers. The model is grounded in improved access to health information and safe, convenient, affordable options for learning about nutrition and engaging in physical activity. Expanded access to free education and wellness offerings continue to grow, with more classes and access points added each year. In addition, community members have access to Diabetes Link, a web-based tool developed by experts in population health. The service links patients with community resources to improve healthy lifestyle behaviors available in their immediate geography. With community-based healthcare partners, NM supports efforts to enact public health policies to improve nutrition and encourage physical activity. The link between consumption of sugary beverages and obesity is well established in scientific literature. NMH supported the proposed tax on sugary beverages, which would have provided disincentives to consumption. Although the tax was not approved, NMH continues to support policies aimed at improving public knowledge of nutrition, reducing access to unhealthy foods and encouraging healthier and more active lifestyle choices among the residents of Chicago. NMH also supported the State's move to coordinated care in the Medicaid Program, which would ensure patients had a medical home. Connecting patients with a primary care doctor provides those patients with guidance toward making healthy lifestyle choices. Injury and Violence Prevention: NMH advocates for adequate mental health and substance abuse services and reimbursement. NMH has maintained its commitment to providing needed mental health and co-occurring substance abuse services for all patients, regardless of medical insurance payor. In addition to providing inpatient care and outpatient therapies, NMH operates a 24-hour/day mental health resource line to help see that those in need are guided to appropriate mental health services. In fiscal year 2014, NMH provided mental health services at an unreimbursed cost to NMH of $9.8 million. This amount excludes the unreimbursed cost of charity care and government sponsored healthcare. NMH also supports programs in collaboration with community-based mental health organizations and at neighborhood sites. NMH's mental health program includes a range of outreach efforts to connect to those in the community needing services wh

Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital	Sch H part V section B question 3 j: The CHNA report also describes NLFH background, charity care, the mission, CHNA goals and objectives, public dissemination plan, and development of the Implementation Plan.
Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital	Sch H Part V section B ques 5 As part of the CHNA, a focus group was held among key stakeholders including representatives from public health and social service providers. A list of recommended participants for the NLFH focus groups was provided by NLFH. Potential participants were chosen because of their ability to identify primary concerns of the populations with whom they work, as well as of the community overall. Participants included a representative of public health, as well as several individuals who work with low-income, minority or other medically underserved populations, and those who work with persons with chronic disease conditions. Focus group candidates were first contacted by letter to request their participation. Follow-up phone calls were then made to ascertain whether or not they would be able to attend. Confirmation calls were placed the day before the groups were scheduled to insure a reasonable turnout. Audio from the focus group sessions was recorded. Findings from the focus group represent qualitative rather than quantitative data. The group was designed to gather input from participants regarding their opinions and perceptions of the health of the residents in the area. Thus, these findings are based on perceptions, not facts. To ensure that organizations impacting health in Lake County were meaningfully engaged in reviewing and interpreting the findings of the CHNA, developing priorities among the identified needs and forming a collaborative plan to address the top priority needs, a steering committee (the External Steering Committee) was established and maintained. Members include representatives of: a. HealthReach (Free Health Clinic) b. Lake County Council for Seniors c. Lake County Health Department d. Lake Forest High School and District 39 e. Mano a Mano Family Resource Center
Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital	Sch H part V section B ques 7 d In addition to providing the CHNA report on the website and making it available to the public upon request, the CHNA report was also provided to a variety of community partners, including: a. Key Community Organizations b. NLFH Internal & External Steering Committee Members c. Northwestern University Institute of Public Health d. Northwestern Medicine Leadership
Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital	Sch H Part V Section B ques 11 NLFH, members of the External Steering Committee, and key community partners collaborated to address the following priority health needs. Access to Health Services: NLFH worked with community partners to respond to the critical need to expand access to primary care for the uninsured and underinsured residents of Lake County (estimated at more than 75,000 residents), resulting in the opening of the Erie HealthReach Waukegan Health Center. NLFH helped to organize and fund development and operations of the center which vastly expanded access to primary, preventive and dental care, and serves as a patient-centered medical home. In its first full year of operations, the health center provided care to nearly 3,000 patients through more than 10,000 visits. In addition, NLFH also worked closely with the Lake County Health Department to address access by participating in efforts lead by the Live Well Lake County Coordination of Care subcommittee. Efforts of this committee included increasing access to health education at appropriate health literacy levels and connecting folks with education to better understand options for obtaining health insurance through the Adorable Care Act. Heart Disease and Stroke: NLFH collaborates with the Lake County Health Department (LCHD) on a number of initiatives to improve the health of residents. NLFH is a member of the Live Well Lake County committee, which utilizes a strategic planning approach to community health improvement activities. Over the last year, this committee inventoried local and national resources that support smoking cessation, and produced a brochure to disseminate throughout the county. NLFH provides community programs on healthy nutrition to improve heart health. A strategic plan was developed to increase awareness of low sodium food and drink options, and to "make the healthy choice the easy choice" by teaching about healthy options that are full of flavor and low in cost. NLFH also supports the joint efforts of LCHD and the Lake County Forest Preserve through the Active Living committee to promote physical activity utilizing the many outdoor resources in the county. Mental Health and Substance Abuse: NLFH participates on a Suicide Prevention Task Force, which includes representatives from LCHD and areas schools. The task force began more than three years ago following a suicide cluster in Lake County, which has not been repeated. NLFH provides expertise and awareness throughout Lake County, as well as support groups and services for patients and their families. NLFH also participates on the Lake County Health Department Behavioral Health Action Team. After conducting a behavioral health needs assessment, this team developed a strategic plan with four action areas, including provider workforce, coordination/continuum of care, access and awareness. Within the action areas, thirteen strategies were identified for implementation and NLFH experts serve as members of the action team to address these strategies. Section C: The CHNA report identified three areas of opportunity for health improvement for which NLFH and its External Steering Committee determined it would not prepare an implementation plan and strategy. These areas of opportunity and the reasons for not addressing are below. Chronic Kidney Disease (Kidney Disease Deaths): Although NLFH has clinical services available to treat kidney disease, the External Steering Committee recommended that NLFH focus its efforts on health needs for which it could have a greater public health impact. Chronic Pain (Chronic Neck Pain): Although NLFH has clinical services available to treat chronic neck pain, the External Steering Committee recommended that NLFH focus its efforts on health needs for which it could have a greater public health impact. Dementias, Including Alzheimer's Disease: Although NLFH has clinical services available to treat dementia, the External Steering Committee recommended that NLFH focus its efforts on health needs for which it could have a greater public health impact. Many health organizations in Lake County were identified as providers of services to treat these health needs (see CHNA Report).

Central Dupage Hospital	Sch H Part V section B ques 5 INPUT WAS GATHERED VIA A VARIETY OF METHODS, INCLUDING A FORMAL HEALTH BEHAVIOR SURVEY, INFORMATION-GATHERING MEETINGS WITH COMMUNITY LEADERS, FOCUS GROUPS WITH RESIDENTS, INTERVIEWS WITH KEY INDIVIDUALS WITH INTIMATE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HEALTH INDICATORS AND NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY. EXISTING HEALTH COLLABORATIVES 1. IMPROVING ACCESS FOR THE UNDERSERVED -A BROAD-BASED COLLABORATIVE INVOLVING CDH, AS WELL AS MANY OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS AND SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES, ADDRESSES ACCESS ISSUES FOR LOW-INCOME AND MINORITY POPULATIONS IN DUPAGE COUNTY. THESE INCLUDE IN-KIND SERVICE CONTRIBUTIONS AND ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT TO DUPAGE HEALTH COALITION'S ACCESS DUPAGE PROGRAM FOR UNINSURED LOW INCOME ADULTS, AS WELL AS FEDERALLY QUALIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS. COLLABORATIVE REFERRAL ARRANGEMENTS AMONG PARTICIPANTS HELP LINK PATIENTS TO PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS AND OTHER ONGOING CARE. 2. ADDRESSING CHRONIC ILLNESS AND MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS - EFFORTS LED BY THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT ARE UNDERWAY TO CREATE THE COMPREHENSIVE NETWORK OF PREVENTIVE, WELLNESS, MAINTENANCE, AND SOCIAL SUPPORT SERVICES NEEDED TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS SUFFERING FROM CHRONIC ILLNESS AND MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. CDH AND OTHER PROVIDERS ARE PARTICIPATING. 3. PROMOTING WELLNESS AND PREVENTION - CDH JOINS OTHER PROVIDERS AND COMMUNITY GROUPS IN ADDRESSING A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY-WIDE HEALTH CHALLENGES INCLUDING CHILDHOOD AND ADULT OBESITY AND PREVENTION OF HEART DISEASE, CANCER, AND STROKE. KEY COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS INCLUDE: 1. DUPAGE COUNTY HEALTH COALITION - ACCESS DUPAGE IS A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT BY LOCAL INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS WHOSE GOAL IS TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO MEDICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES TO LOW INCOME RESIDENTS IN DUPAGE COUNTY. THE PROGRAM IS A PARTNERSHIP OF HOSPITALS, PHYSICIANS, LOCAL GOVERNMENT, HUMAN SERVICE AGENCIES, AND COMMUNITY GROUPS. IT PROVIDES SERVICES TO ADULT COUNTY RESIDENTS WHO ARE UNDER AGE 65, HAVE HOUSEHOLD INCOMES BELOW 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, HAVE NO MEDICAL INSURANCE, AND ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR PUBLIC HEALTH INSURANCE PLANS. THE AVERAGE ENROLLMENT FOR ACCESS DUPAGE IN 2014 WAS 11,450 PEOPLE. 2. DUPAGE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT - THE DUPAGE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT, LOCATED IN WHEATON, ILLINOIS, IS CHARGED WITH PROVIDING CORE PUBLIC HEALTH FUNCTIONS RELATED TO ASSESSMENT, ASSURANCE, AND POLICY DEVELOPMENT. TO THAT END, THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT OFFERS A COMPREHENSIVE ARRAY OF SERVICES DESIGNED IN RESPONSE TO COMMUNITY NEED AND PUBLIC MANDATE. CDH, AS WELL AS OTHER DUPAGE COUNTY HOSPITALS, HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, AND HEALTH-RELATED SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES, SUPPORT THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT IN A VARIETY OF WAYS INCLUDING PARTICIPATION IN THE IPLAN PROCESS AND MENTAL HEALTH INITIATIVE. THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT IS AN ANCHOR MEMBER OF THE DUPAGE HEALTH COALITION, AND THEIR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR SERVES ON THE BOARD. THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT ALSO SERVES AS THE FIDUCIARY AGENT FOR THE FORWARD INITIATIVE. 3. DUPAGE FEDERATION ON HUMAN SERVICE REFORM - THE DUPAGE FEDERATION ON HUMAN SERVICES REFORM IS A COLLABORATION OF GOVERNMENT AND KEY COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS THAT IDENTIFY WAYS A LOCAL COMMUNITY CAN ADDRESS ITS HUMAN NEEDS USING ITS OWN RESOURCES AND RESOURCEFULNESS. THE FEDERATION SERVES AS AN ORGANIZER AND CATALYST IN DUPAGE COUNTY, BRINGING TOGETHER THE RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATIONS AND ADVOCATING FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF REAL SOLUTIONS. THE ORGANIZATION EFFECTS CHANGE BY MANAGING COLLABORATIONS AND PROJECTS, IDENTIFYING NEEDED SYSTEMS CHANGES, AND MAKING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT. THE FEDERATION'S VALUE LIES IN ITS EXPERTISE AND OBJECTIVITY. THE FACT THAT IT IS NOT A DIRECT SERVICE PROVIDER PRESERVES ITS ABILITY TO LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE, ADDRESSING CROSS-CATEGORICAL PROBLEMS IN HUMAN SERVICES. THIS IS ACHIEVED THROUGH A STRONG, INVOLVED BOARD, A SYNERGISTIC PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN BOARD AND STAFF, AND THROUGH LONG-TERM RELATIONSHIPS WITH KEY DECISION-MAKERS AND ORGANIZATIONAL PARTNERS (WWW.DUPAGEFEDERATION.ORG). CDH AND OTHER COMMUNITY PROVIDERS PARTICIPATE ACTIVELY IN BOTH THE FEDERATION AND ITS INITIATIVES. 4. FORWARD INITIATIVE - FORWARD IS A LEADERSHIP INITIATIVE AIMED AT REVERSING THE TREND OF CHILDHOOD OBESITY IN DUPAGE COUNTY. ONE OF THE GOALS IS TO IDENTIFY THE MAGNITUDE OF THE PROBLEM IN ORDER TO DEVELOP APPROPRIATE INTERVENTIONS. PRELIMINARY DATA SHOWS THAT THE OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY RATE FOR DUPAGE COUNTY IS 60.9 PERCENT. FOR YOUTH BETWEEN THE AGES OF 5 AND 17, THE RATE IS 25.2 PERCENT, DOWN FROM 34 PERCENT IN 2009. CDH AND OTHER COMMUNITY PROVIDERS AND GROUPS ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN THIS COALITION BY PROVIDING FUNDING, PLANNING, LEADERSHIP, AND IN-KIND SUPPORT FOR RESEARCH AND OUTREACH ACTIVITIES. 5. DUPAGE COUNTY IPLAN 2015 - IPLAN (ILLINOIS PROJECT FOR LOCAL ASSESSMENT OF NEEDS) IS A SERIES OF PLANNING ACTIVITIES LED BY THE CERTIFIED LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT.

Central Dupage Hospital	Sch H Part V Section B ques 11 CDH PRIORITY INITIATIVES FY 2013-2015 CDH HAS IDENTIFIED FOUR PRIORITY NEEDS THAT WE BELIEVE WILL ENABLE US AND OUR PARTNERS TO MAXIMIZE THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT GENERATED BY OUR COLLECTIVE RESOURCES OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS. IN SELECTING THESE PRIORITIES WE CONSIDERED THE DEGREE OF COMMUNITY NEED FOR ADDITIONAL RESOURCES, THE CAPACITY OF OTHER AGENCIES TO MEET THE NEED, AND THE SUITABILITY OF OUR OWN EXPERTISE AND RESOURCES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. IN PARTICULAR, WE LOOKED FOR HEALTH NEEDS THAT REQUIRE A COORDINATED RESPONSE ACROSS A RANGE OF HEALTH CARE AND COMMUNITY RESOURCES. THESE NEEDS CAN BENEFIT FROM THE INTEGRATED NATURE OF OUR ORGANIZATION AND OUR PROVIDER AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THE PRIORITIES ARE: ACCESS TO CARE AN AGING POPULATION, GROWING LOW-INCOME POPULATION, AND THE FLAGGING ECONOMY ARE CREATING A VARIETY OF ACCESS PROBLEMS RELATING TO BOTH THE AFFORDABILITY AND AVAILABILITY OF CARE. CDH SEEKS TO PROMOTE ACCESS TO CARE THROUGH SEVERAL INITIATIVES WHICH WILL BE DELINEATED WITHIN THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN. SUMMARILY, CDH WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES WHO RECEIVE CARE AT THE HOSPITAL AND PROMOTE REFERRALS TO COMMUNITY CLINICS AND PHYSICIANS IN AN EFFORT TO LINK PATIENTS WITH MEDICAL HOME SETTINGS. THIS WILL BE ACHIEVED BY ENSURING CLIENTS HAVE EASE OF ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE, MEDICALLY NECESSARY INPATIENT CARE AND HAVE READY ACCESS TO OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. IN ADDITION, CDH LEADERSHIP WILL CONTINUE OUR PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATIONS WITH LOCAL FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS, FREE CLINICS, AND THE DUPAGE HEALTH COALITION (ACCESS DUPAGE) TO PROMOTE ACCESS TO MEDICAL HOME CARE UPON DISCHARGE. ADDITIONAL EMPHASIS WILL ALSO BE DIRECTED TOWARDS ASSURING OUR PATIENTS ARE ADEQUATELY LINKED TO APPROPRIATE SERVICES UPON DISCHARGE TO ENSURE RETURN TO A HEALTHY AND SUCCESSFUL OPTIMUM STATE OF WELLNESS WHILE MINIMIZING UNNECESSARY RE-HOSPITALIZATIONS. OBESITY NATIONALLY, MORE THAN 27.8 PERCENT OF ADULTS ARE OBESE ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL HEALTH RANKINGS. STEMMING THE EPIDEMIC OF OBESITY IN OUR COMMUNITY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY, DECREASE ASSOCIATED CHRONIC DISEASE AND REDUCE HEALTHCARE COSTS OVER THE LONG TERM. CDH IS COMMITTED TO CONTINUING ITS PARTNERSHIP WITH THE FORWARD INITIATIVE IN THE DUPAGE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT AS THEY PLAN AND DEVELOP RESPONSES TO THE PROBLEM OF OBESITY, WITH PARTICULAR EMPHASIS ON CHILDHOOD OBESITY. IN ADDITION WE WILL CONTINUE OUR COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND OUTREACH ROGRAMMING. MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES FOR THE CHRONICALLY MENTALLY ILL ARE INSUFFICIENT. SERVICES FOR CHILDREN, PUBLIC AID RECIPIENTS, AND THOSE SUFFERING WITH SUBSTANCE ABUSE ARE ALSO IN SHORT SUPPLY. IN ADDITION, GAPS EXIST IN EDUCATION, SCREENING, AND REFERRAL OF INDIVIDUALS WITH MENTAL HEALTH CONCERNS. THE RESULT IS CHRONIC CONDITIONS BECOME DEBILITATING AND MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES ARE OFTEN MISSED IN CHILDREN. CDH'S EXPERTISE IN CLINICAL SERVICES AND MANAGEMENT COUPLED WITH OUR PARTNERSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS AND AGENCIES ENABLES THE HOSPITAL TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES IN A COORDINATED WAY IN A VARIETY OF SETTINGS. THE COUNTY HAS INITIATED A MENTAL HEALTH COUNCIL TO FURTHER ASSESS NEED AND CREATE COLLABORATIVE RESPONSES. CDH WILL CONTINUE TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS INITIATIVE. CHRONIC DISEASE AS OUR NATION AND LOCAL COMMUNITIES CONTINUE TO AGE, AN INCREASE IN BOTH THE INCIDENCE AND PREVALENCE OF CHRONIC DISEASE IS EXPECTED. THE EXISTING HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM IS NOT PREPARED TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES THAT WILL BE REQUIRED TO ADDRESS THESE DISEASES, AND THE DIRECT AND INDIRECT BURDEN OF CHRONIC DISEASE IS LIKELY TO CREATE SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL STRAINS FOR PROVIDERS IN THE COMMUNITY. CDH IS POSITIONED TO DEVELOP THE COORDINATED RESPONSE THAT WILL BE REQUIRED TO ADDRESS THIS TREND. PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTS SPEAK TO THE IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION TO PREVENT THE ONSET OF DISEASE AND IMPROVE THE HEALTHY LIFESTYLES ALONG WITH SCREENING TO PROMOTE EARLY DETECTION AND PROMPT TREATMENT OF DISEASE STATES IN AN EFFORT TO LIMIT ASSOCIATED DISABILITY. ADDITIONALLY, EDUCATION OF INDIVIDUALS WITH CHRONIC DISEASES TO ASSIST IN THE SELF-MANAGEMENT OF THE DISEASE WILL IMPROVE OUTCOMES, LESSON ACUTE EXACERBATED EPISODES, AND PROMOTE LONGER, HEALTHIER LIVES WITH AN EMPHASIS ON LIVING IN AN OPTIMUM STATE OF WELLNESS. CDH IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING CARE ALONG ALL THREE LEVELS OF THE CHRONIC DISEASE CONTINUUM: EDUCATION, SCREENING, AND MANAGEMENT. ADDITIONAL AREAS OF NEED TWO ADDITIONAL NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT - PRENATAL AND PERINATAL CARE FOR UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS AND INFECTIOUS AND SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE RATES ABOVE TARGETS. WHILE WE STILL CONSIDER THESE AS PRIORITY NEEDS, WE BELIEVE THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO RESPOND IS BY CONTINUING TO PARTICIPATE IN COUNTY-LED INITIATIVES TO ADDRESS THESE CONCERNS AND SUPPORTING THE WORK OF QUALIFIED ORGANIZATIONS PROVIDING AMBULATORY CARE TO THE UNDERSERVED. CHILD AND MATERNAL HEALTH THERE IS A NEED FOR ADDITIONAL EFFORT TO IMPROVE PRENATAL AND PERINATAL CARE, AND TO TARGET HIGH-RISK GROUPS SUCH AS TEENAGERS AND OLDER WOMEN IN ADDITION TO MONITORING HISTORICALLY HIGHER INFANT MORTALITY RATES AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICANS RESIDENTS OF DUPAGE COUNTY, SUGGESTING THAT INTERVENTIONS TARGETING THIS POPULATION MAY HELP. WE BELIEVE THAT WE ARE BEST SUITED TO ASSIST IN MEETING THESE NEEDS IN TWO WAYS: (1) THROUGH THE SUPPORT OF LOCAL MEDICAL HOME PROVIDERS FOR THE UNDERSERVED AND (2) BY CONTINUING TO OFFER STATE OF THE ART PRENATAL EDUCATION SERVICES TO ALL MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY. INFECTIOUS AND SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE RATES ABOVE TARGETS MAINTAINING HIGH LEVELS OF VACCINATION IN THE POPULATION IS THE BEST WAY TO CONTROL THESE DISEASES. VACCINE RATES FOR PNEUMONIA AND FLU AMONG OLDER DUPAGE RESIDENTS ARE BELOW NATIONAL TARGETS. IMPROVING VACCINE RATES FOR ESTABLISHED DISEASES REQUIRES PUBLIC OUTREACH AND COORDINATION AMONG PROVIDERS. MEETING EMERGING DISEASE THREATS ALSO REQUIRES HIGHLY COORDINATED RAPID MOBILIZATION OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND PROVIDER RESOURCES. WHILE STILL BELOW NATIONAL AND STATE LEVELS, RATES OF SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE HAVE RISEN IN DUPAGE COUNTY IN RECENT YEARS. EDUCATION AND OUTREACH AS WELL AS ACCESS TO CONFIDENTIAL AND AFFORDABLE TREATMENT ARE NEEDED TO ADDRESS THESE DISEASES. CDH WILL CONTINUE TO PARTICIPATE IN COUNTY-LED INITIATIVES IN THESE AREAS IN ADDITION TO SUPPORTING THE WORK OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS FOR THE UNDERSERVED.

Delnor-Community Hospital	Sch H Part V Section B ques 11 DELNOR PRIORITY INITIATIVES FY 2012-20'4 UPON LENGTHY REVIEW OF BOTH THE COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN, ALONG WITHAN ANALYSIS SPECIFIC TO CENTRAL KANE COUNTY. DELNOR HAS IDENTIFIED FOUR PRIORITY NEEDS THAT WILL BE ADDRESSED DURING FY 2011-2013. EACH PRIORITY AREA WILL HAVE SPECIFIC AND MEASURABLE GOALS,OBJECTIVES AND OUTCOMES, WHICH ARE OUTLINED IN OUR FY 2011-2013 COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN. AT DELNORCOMMUNITY HOSPITAL, WE BELIEVE THAT THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO ADDRESS NEEDS IN OUR COMMUNITY IS TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS AND STAKEHOLDERS. THIS APPROACH ALLOWS US TO MAXIMIZE COLLECTIVE EFFORTS AND ACHIEVE THE BEST USE OF OUR COLLECTIVE RESOURCES IN SELECTING PRIORITIES WE CONSIDERED THE DEGREE OF COMMUNITY NEED FOR ADDITIONAL RESOURCES,THE CAPACITY OF OTHER AGENCIES TO MEET THE NEED AND THE SUITABILITY OF OUR OWN EXPERTISE AND RESOURCES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE IN PARTICULAR. WE LOOKED FOR HEALTH NEEDS THAT REQUIRE A COORDINATED RESPONSE ACROSS A RANGE OF HEALTHCARE AND COMMUNITY RESOURCES. WE BELIEVE THAT THESE NEEDS CAN BENEFIT MOST FROM THE INTEGRATED NATURE OF OUR ORGANIZATION AND OUR PROVIDER AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS. FY 20122015 PRIORITY INitiATIVES ARE. ACCESS TO CARE AN AGING POPULATION COUPLED WITH A FLAGGING ECONOMY AND AN INCREASING PREVALENCE OF CHRONIC DISEASE CREATE A VARIETY OF ACCESS TO- CARE ISSUES RELATING TO BOTH THE AFFORDABILITY AND AVAILabILITY OF CARE DELNOR SEEKS to PROMOTE ACCESS THROUGH A VARIETY OF INITIATIVES THAT WILL BE DELINEATED WITHIN THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN. SUMMARILY, DELNOR WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES TO PROMOTE ACCESS TO MEDICALLY NECESSARY INPATIENT SERVICES BY MAINTAINING AN ACCESSIBLE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. ADDITIONALLY, STAFF AND LEADERSHIP WILL WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH KEY COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO PROMOTE A SEAMLESS CONTINUUM OF CARE INTO LOCAL MEDICAL HOME SETIINGS OBESITY/NUTRITION THE PROBLEM OF ADULT/CHILD OBESITY HAS REACHED EPIDEMIC LEVELS, BOTH NATIONALLY AND IN KANE COUNTY, CURRENTLY,63.9 PERCENT OF KANE COUNTY AOULTS ARE CONSIDERED OVERWEIGHT AND/OR OBESE ITISWIDELY RECOGNIZED THAT BEING OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE CAN LEAD TO A VARIETY OF CHRONIC DISEASES INCLUDING HEART DISEASE, DIABETES, HYPERTENSION, CANCER, STROKE AND OSTEOARTHRITIS. WITH BOTH A LARGE YOUNG POPULATION AND AN AGING POPULATION, IT IS CRITICAL TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE TO NOT ONLY TO ENHANCE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING BUT TO REDUCE HEALTHCARE COSTS OVER THE LONG TERM. DELNOR WILL CONTINUE ITS PARTNERSHIP WITH KANE COUNTY'S FIT KIDS 2020 PLAN IN ADDITION TO WORKING WITH LOCAL SCHOOL AND PARK DISTRICTS CHRONIC DISEASE AS OUR NATION AND LOCAL COMMUNITIES CONTINUE TO AGE,AN INCREASE IN BOTH THE INCIDENCE AND THE PROVENANCE OF CHRONIC DISEASE IS EXPECTED. THE EXISTING HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM IS NOT PREPARED TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES THAT WILL BE REQUIRED TO ADDRESS THESE DISEASES.NOR IS IT PREPARED TO RESPOND TO BOTH THE DIRECT AND INDIRECT BURDEN THAT CHRONIC DISEASE IS LIKELY TO CREATE -INCLUDING THE SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL STRAINS FOR INDIVIDUALS,FAMILIES AND HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS. PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTS SPEAK TO THE IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION TO PREVENT THE ONSET OF DISEASE AND IMPROVEMENT OF HEALTHY LIFESTYLES ALONG WITH SCREENING TO PROMOTE EARLY DETECTION AND PROMPT TREATMENT OF DISEASE STATES IN AN EFFORT TO LIMIT ASSOCIATED DISABILITY ADDITIONALLY, EDUCATION OF INDIVIDUALS WITH CHRONIC DISEASES TO ASSIST IN THE SELF-MANAGEMENT OF THE DISEASE WILL IMPROVE OUTCOMES, LESSEN ACUTE EXACERBATED EPISODES AND PROMOTE LONGER, HEALTHIER LIVES WITH AN EMPHASIS ON LIVING IN AN OPTIMUM STATE OF WELLNESS_ DELNOR IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING CARE ALONG ALL THREE LEVELS OF THE CHRONIC DISEASE CONTINUUM- EDUCATION,SCREENING AND MANAGEMENT. COMMUNICABLE DISEASE PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES CONTINUE TO GET DISEASES THAT ARE VACCINE PREVENTABLE. VACCINES ARE AMONG THE MOST COST-EFFECTIVE CLINICAL PREVENTIVE SERVICES AND ARE A CORE COMPONENT OF ANY PREVENTIVE SERVICES PACKAGE. HOWEVER, ONLY 56 PERCENT OF 2-YEAROLDS IN KANE COUNTY RECEIVED RECOMMENDED VACCINES IN 2010.THIS PROBLEM IS EXACERBATED IN CENTRAL KANE COUNTY AS MANY HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE'S VACCINE FOR CHILDREN (VFC) PROGRAM IN RESPONSE. DELNOR HOSPITAL HAS BECOME A VFC PROVIDER AND OFFERS REGULAR IMMUNIZATION CLINICS FOR CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH LIMITED ACCESS TO VACCINES ADDITIONALLY,DELNOR CONTINUES TO PARTNER WITH THE KANE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND LOCAL PROVIDERS IN THE DIAGNOSIS AND INPATIENT TREATMENT OF INDIVIDUALS WITH ACTIVE TUBERCULOSIS. ADDITIONAL AREAS OF NEED THREE ADDITIONAL NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE COUNTY COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT DATA INFANT MORTALITY, CHILDHOOD LEAD POISONING AND POOR SOCIAUEMOTIONAL WELLNESS WHILE WE STUCONSIDER THESE PRIORITY NEEDS AND WILL CONTiNUE TO PARTICIPATE IN COUNTYWIDE INITIATIVES TO ADDRESS THESE CONCERNS. AN ANALYSIS OF CENTRAL KANE DATA SPECIFIC TO THESE PRIORITIES DID NOT DEMONSTRATE SIGNIFICANT NEED AT THIS TIME WE WILL, HOWEVER.CONTINUE TO MONITOR THESE TRENDS AND RESPOND ACCORDINGLY SHOULD THEY BECOME A NOTABLE CONCERN IN CENTRAL KANE COUNTY. INFANT MORTALITY THERE WERE A TOTAL OF 1,023 BIRTHS TO KANE COUNTY RESIDENTS AT DELNOR HOSPITAL IN 2008. 0F THESE,85 PERCENT HAD ADEQUATE PRENATAL CARE. THIS REPRESENTS THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE IN KANE COUNTY AND EXCEEDED HEALTHY PEOPLE 2010 GOALS FOR EARLY PRENATAL CARE ADDITIONALLY. INFANT MORTALITY FOR DELNOR RESIDENTS WAS NONCALCULABLE DUE TO SMALL NUMBERS. CHILDHOOD LEAD POISONING WHILE KANE COUNTY HAS ONE OF THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF CHILDHOOD LEAD POISONING IN THE STATE,COUNTY DATA INDICATES THE AGGREGATION OF THIS PROBLEM IS CONCENTRATED IN BOTH THE NORTHERN AND SOLITHERN PARTS OF THE COUNTY AS EVIDENCED BY ZIP CODE TRACKING.WE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THIS TREND AND ASSESS VFC PARTICIPANTS AS NEEDED FOR RISK. POOR SOCI0-EMOTIONAL WELLNESS RESIDENTS IN THE DELNOR SERVICE AREA HAD RELATlVELY BETTER HEALTH OUTCOMES THAN IN OTHER AREAS OF THE COUNTY. SURVEY DATA INDICATED THAT 61 PERCENT OF CENTRAL KANE RESPONDENTS REPORTED THEIR GENERAL HEALTH AS EXCELLENT OR VERY GOOD, WHILE 7 PERCENT REPORTED THEIR MENTAL HEALTH AS NOT BEING GOOD.

Central DuPage Hospital Association	Part V, Section B Question 2 As disclosed in several sections in this information return, Central DuPage Hospital Association (CDH) was acquired as part of NMHC's acquisition of CDH's parent, CDH-Delnor Health System. Fiscal and tax years for CDH changed as a result of this acquisition to coincide with NMHC's fiscal and tax years ending August 31. CDH's originally planned completion date for the CHNA assessment and report was June 30, 2016, based on having completed its prior CHNA in its tax year ending June 30, 2013. CDH accelerated its CHNA process upon its acquisition by NMHC, and completed its CHNA survey of the community to identify significant health needs by August 31, 2015. The final CHNA report had not yet been completed or made widely available to the public as of August 31, 2015.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
Community benefit Report	Schedule H, Part I, Line 6a NORTHWESTERN MEMORIAL HEALTHCARE AND SUBSIDIARIES (NMHC) SUBMIT A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT TO THE ILLINOIS ATTORNEY GENERAL ACCORDING TO THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. NORTHWESTERN MEMORIAL HOSPITAL'S(NMH), NORTHWESTERN LAKE FOREST HOSPITAL'S (NLFH), Central DuPage Hospital Association (CDH, Delnor Community Hospital (DCH) AND ALL OTHER NMHC NON-PROFIT SUBSIDIARIES' RESULTS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS REPORT. A COMPLETE COPY OF THE REPORT IS AVAILABLE ON REQUEST.
Costing methodology	Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 The cost of financial assistance at cost was calculated by applying This section of the report includes the unreimbursed cost of care provided to uninsured and underinsured patients served by NMH, NLFH, NMG, CDH and Delnor. The cost of charity care for the hospitals was calculated by applying the total cost-to-charge ratio from each hospital's Medicare cost report (CMS 2552-96 Worksheet C, Part 1, consistent with the State of Illinois Attorney General Office definition) to the charges on accounts identified as qualifying for charity care (as defined in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Accounting and Auditing Guide - Healthcare Organizations). The resultant calculated cost was then offset by any payments received that were designated for the payment of patient bills qualifying for a charity care discount (as defined in the Healthcare Financial Management Association's Principles and Practices Board Statement 15: Valuation and Financial Statement Presentation of Charity Care and Bad Debts by Institutional Healthcare Providers). NMG is not required to file a Medicare cost report. An internally calculated cost-to-charge ratio specific to NMG was used to determine the cost of charity care for NMG. The resultant calculated cost was then offset by any payments, consistent with the methodology for the hospitals. The unreimbursed cost of bad debt, Medicaid, Medicare or any other federal, state or local indigent healthcare program is not included in the unreimbursed cost figure for charity care. The costs of charity care in this report differ from NMHC's notes to the consolidated audited financial statements for fiscal year 2015 where they were calculated by applying a cost-to-charge ratio developed prior to filing NMH's, NLFH's, CDH's and Delnor's fiscal year 2015 Medicare cost reports to charges foregone for charity care. The fiscal year 2015 Medicare cost reports were completed after the audited financial statements were issued. The costs of charity care for the hospitals included in this report were calculated using the cost-to-charge ratios from NMH's, NLFH's, CDH's and Delnor's Medicare cost reports filed in February of 2016 for fiscal year 2015.
Bad Debt expense removed	schedule h, part I, line 7 a thru k The amount of bad debt expenses included in Part IX line 25 is $161,174,280. This amount is subtracted from total costs for calculating the percentages.
Subsidized Health Services	schedule H, Part I, line 7g THE BENEFITS REPORTED ARE PRIMARILY ASSOCIATED WITH OPERATING LOSSES SUPPORTING NMH'S MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAMS. NMHC DOES NOT INCLUDE COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PHYSICIAN CLINICS AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES.
Community Building activities	schedule H, part II, Description Line 8: NMHC hospitals provide a broad range of training programs and supervised patient care experiences to ensure that a highly trained healthcare workforce of adequate capacity is in place to serve the residents of the region. Importantly, these programs create pathways for at-risk members of the community to seek jobs within the healthcare system and also are in place for young people to learn about and potentially explore healthcare careers. Certificate Programs at NMH NMH offers 12 to 21-month certificate programs in four areas including nuclear medicine technology, radiation therapy, radiography and diagnostic medical sonography. The programs are available to employees as well as the general public. Many students come from the local community as well as from affiliated colleges and universities. Leaders of these programs visit city high schools, colleges and universities to introduce various medical fields to prospective students and increase their general knowledge of various allied health fields. Clinical Experience at NMHC Hospitals NMHC hospitals provide the important clinical setting for the education of the next generation of healthcare workers, including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, laboratory professionals, allied health workers and skilled technicians. Through clinical affiliations with top regional universities and colleges and established clinical rotations, mentoring, clinician shadowing, traditional didactic lectures and other teaching programs, we provide clinical settings for the education of thousands of students, many of whom will become professionals in fields identified as areas of current or future workforce shortage in the national healthcare system. NMHC provides education to a wide range of clinical students including: " Undergraduate and graduate nursing students " Students from university-based pharmacy programs " Respiratory therapy students " Graduate social work interns " Interns in biomedical engineering " Pastoral Care students " Physical and occupational therapy assistant, bachelor, masters and PhD students. " Students in a broad array of other clinical programs. On-the-Job Training and Youth Education Programs Since 1997, NMH has partnered with the CARA program to help homeless and other at-risk adults in their efforts to achieve long-term employment success by providing on-the-job training skills that ready them to move into the workforce. NMH has hired more than 120 employees through this partnership since it began, including four in fiscal year 2015. NMHC offers ongoing, comprehensive youth programs that expose students to potential healthcare careers. " The NM Scholars program is a unique partnership between NMHC and the Chicago Public School (CPS) Westinghouse College Preparatory High School (Westinghouse), a selective enrollment high school located in Garfield Park on the city's west side. The program provides talented high school students with the opportunity to learn about and pursue post-high school education in healthcare careers. Students are exposed to Feinberg faculty and hospital employees and provided a behind-the-scenes understanding of clinical areas and potential careers. A group of high-achieving high school freshmen are selected each year to participate in the four-year program which includes mentoring by senior faculty members, an intensive three-week summer program, distance learning, ACT test preparation and leadership and life skills development. Thirty students participated in fiscal year 2015. " NMHC formalized its partnership with Westinghouse's Medical and IT career academies and will help to strengthen curriculum and provide exposure to health and IT careers through site visits, job shadowing, speakers and internships. This activity is funded in part by the Michael Reese Health Trust. " The Cristo Rey Internship Program, run collaboratively with the Cristo Rey Jesuit High School in the Pilsen neighborhood on the city's near west side offers students from a primarily Hispanic community an opportunity to work one day a week in an administrative role with the Human Resources division or within the Information Services department at NMH to gain valuable work experience and learn time management and organizational skills in a corporate setting. Many of these students are the first in their family to pursue college as a goal. Nine students participated in this program in fiscal year 2015. " NMH has hosted Medical Explorers Post 9766 since 1996. Students participate in a variety of activities designed to encourage their expressed interest in healthcare including career exploration, life skills, service learning, character development and leadership. Students participate in tours, hear guest speakers and join in discussions and projects. To date, more than 800 high school and college students have participated in NMH's Medical Explorers program, with 37 participants in fiscal year 2015. Since the program began, many Medical Explorers have pursued careers in nursing and medicine and several are now employed at NMH. " CDH works with Naperville Central High School to provide information on healthcare careers and offer hospital tours to interested students. " NLFH staff provide medical career advisory training at Lake County High School's technical campus and assist students and parents in exploring educational paths to support career goals. 140 students participated in the program in fiscal year 2015. " NMH began a medical externship program in fiscal year 2015 in partnership with the National Latino Education Institute, an educational and vocational services organization. NMG hosted five students under the program, four of whom have been hired as fulltime employees. " NMHC continues to offer comprehensive internships and fellowships for college students and post-graduates. - For more than 20 years, NMH has been a sponsor of the INROADS program, which provides progressive internships, year-round academic instruction and summer workshops to prepare minority college students for the corporate work setting. Initially developed under the federal "Hire the Future" program, NMH was the first Chicago hospital to participate in this program. Students benefit from mentoring and leadership training to prepare them for future positions in a healthcare career. - Chicago Scholars is a not-for-profit organization that provides a comprehensive five-year program of mentoring, internship placement, networking, college admission assistance and scholarships to college-bound and college-level Chicago youth from primarily low-income backgrounds. NMHC is a "High Five Partner" of the program, contributing $20,000 each year for four years. Members of the Human Resources department at NMHC provided support to this program by participating in the applicant interview and selection process and volunteering at the career fair. In fiscal year 2015, NMH provided a paid internship to two college-level students participating in the Chicago Scholars program. NMHC offers administrative fellowships and internships to help introduce select post-graduate students to various aspects of leadership within an AMC hospital.
Bad debt expense footnote	Schedule H, part III, Line 4 PART III LINE 2: Net patient service revenue, net of contractual allowances and discounts, is reduced by the provision for uncollectible accounts, and net patient accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for uncollectible accounts. These amounts are based primarily on management's assessment of historical and expected write-offs and net collections, along with the aging status for each major payor source. Management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for uncollectible accounts. Based on historical experience, a portion of Northwestem Memorial's self-pay patients who do not qualify for charity care will be unable or unwilling to pay for the services provided. Thus, a provision is recorded for uncollectible accounts in the period services are provided related to these patients. After all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted in accordance with Northwestern Memorial's policies, accounts receivable are written off and charged against the allowance for uncollectible accounts. Northwestern Memorial has determined, based on an assessment at the reporting-entity level, that net patient service revenue is primarily recorded prior to assessing the patient's ability to pay and, as such, the entire provision for uncollectible accounts related to net patient service revenue is recorded as a deduction from net patient service revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and changes in net assets.
Medicare shortfall	Schedule H, part III, line 8 THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF MEDICARE IS DEFINED BY THE STATE OF ILLINOIS ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE ANNUAL NONPROFIT HOSPITAL COMMUNITY BENEFITS PLAN REPORT AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THE HEALTHCARE FINANCial MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION ALSO VIEWS THE UNREIMBURSED COSTS OF MEDICARE AS PART OF A HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAM. NMHC PROVIDES MEDICAL CARE TO MEDICARE PATIENTS AT A COST HIGHER THAN THE REIMBURSEMENT IT RECEIVES FROM MEDICARE. THE AMOUNTS LISTED FOR PART III, LINES 5 THRU 7, ARE CALCULATED CONSISTENT WITH THE METHODOLOGY DESCRIBED FOR CALCULATING UREIMBURSED COST OF MEDICAID FOR FISCAL 2014.
Financial Assistance collection practices	Schedule H, part III, line 9b NMHC's Credit and Collection Policy contains a provision for financial counseling. tHE POLICY STATES THAT patients with self-pay balances and without the resources to pay their obligations will be assessed FOR FREE AND DISCOUNTED CARE eligibility By the Financial Counseling Departments. The assessment involves an evaluation of all levels of assistance including governmental assistance, extended pay alternatives, and free or discounted care. If THE PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR free care, THE ACCOUNT IS ADJUSTED TO ZERO SO NO COLLECTION ACTIVITY OCCURS. If financial assistance results in a discounted or reduced balance, only the reduced balance will be subject to the collection practices.
Needs assessment	schedule H, part VI, Line 2 Our hospitals' mission statements set forth the commitment to improve the health of the communities we serve and to advance medical research and education. The Community Benefit Plan describes the broad reaching goals that support this commitment and address our responsibility as a tax-exempt organization. The goals of the Community Benefit Plan are to: " Provide quality care based on our clinical and academic strengths " Train the next generation of healthcare professionals for our hospitals, communities and industry " Support the discovery of new knowledge through research that can cure disease and reduce suffering " Develop programs to address the affordability and accessibility of healthcare " Make a measurable, positive impact on the health of medically underserved residents in our communities " Through information, empower community residents to make proactive healthcare decisions " Provide local youth with education, mentoring and exposure to the healthcare industry for potential careers " Identify and address community needs within available resources " Promote strong and lasting relationships with our communities Aligned with our missions and Community Benefit Plan, and in accordance with the requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, each of the NMHC hospitals works with community and campus partners every three years to complete a comprehensive Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) that identifies the highest priority health needs of residents of their communities, most recently in 2013 for NMH, NLFH and CDH, and in 2015 for Delnor. Implementation plans are developed to respond to these needs. With Feinberg, NMHC brings to bear the resources of a world-class academic medical health system to advance our Community Benefit Goals and CHNA initiatives in ways that could not be achieved as stand-alone hospitals: " Seeking root causes to health conditions and collaborating as scientists and clinicians to develop solutions, " Enhancing access to healthcare, " Improving clinical quality, " Advancing medical innovation, and " Ensuring that a highly skilled healthcare workforce is in place for decades to come. The CHNA implementation plans are grounded in a healthcare model that we have worked with our community partners to establish, in which residents of our community are informed and able to make healthy lifestyle choices, manage their chronic health conditions and receive medically necessary healthcare services in the most appropriate setting. The model is based on the belief that healthcare services are optimized when they are coordinated through a "patient-centered medical home." The patient-centered medical home provides health information and resources, assistance in navigating the healthcare system, primary and preventive care at a location convenient for patients, and facilitates access to more specialized hospital-based diagnostic and treatment services. We have implemented large-scale programs in Chicago and Lake County using this framework to target high priority health conditions and will continue to use this model to address priority health needs identified through our CHNAs. Ongoing efforts draw on NMHC's and Feinberg's strengths in public health, communication and education and include programs to address obstetrics/gynecology health, diabetes, breast care and cancer. Our hospitals have enduring relationships, often decades old, with healthcare organizations in our communities. Through these partnerships we collaborate on determining priority health needs through the CHNA process and ongoing, and work together to develop solutions that respect the varied cultural, socioeconomic and practical needs of our diverse communities. NMH has formal and longstanding affiliations with two FQHC partners based in the community, Near North and Erie. Near North, a community health partner for more than 40 years, provides neighborhood-based care and support services through eight locations to more than 46,000 primarily low-income uninsured or underinsured residents who live in some of the city's most impoverished communities. These communities are home to Black, Hispanic, and other racial and ethnic groups that experience health disparities in diabetes, heart disease, asthma, HIV, depression, tobacco use and infant mortality. Near North operates primary care clinics on Chicago's South, West and Near North sides. Erie was founded in the 1950s as a project of volunteer physicians from NMH and Erie Neighborhood House. Erie provides a variety of primary care and case management services through 13 sites, including a new facility in Lake County, five school-based health centers and the only freestanding comprehensive teen and young adult health site in Chicago. More than 62,000 patients receive medical care and 9,500 receive dental care annually from Erie sites, which serve the Chicago neighborhoods of Albany Park, Avondale, Belmont Cragin, Hermosa, Humboldt Park, Irving Park, Logan Square, Lincoln Square, North Center, North Lawndale, Uptown and West Town along with Lake County in northern Illinois. Erie serves a population that is primarily Hispanic, the majority of which come from households with incomes that fall below the federal poverty level. NMH also works with CommunityHealth, the largest free medical clinic in Illinois with locations in Chicago's West Town and Englewood neighborhoods, and has replicated there some of the disease management programs that have been successfully implemented at Near North and Erie. CommunityHealth was originally established to provide access to healthcare services for the uninsured. Though more Chicagoans have gained access to health insurance as a result of the Affordable Care Act, an estimated 450,000 people in Chicago still do not qualify for health insurance coverage. In 2015, CommunityHealth provided more than 14,400 medical and dental visits for more than 10,400 patients. Near North and Erie work with NMH and NLFH to identify community needs and to develop programs and strategies to address those needs and expand access to care. Through formal affiliation agreements, processes have been put in place to ensure a flow of information among NMH, NLFH, Near North and Erie. Members of NMH's senior management team have served for many years as board members at Near North and Erie. Through charity care, outreach services and health education programs, NLFH improves access to healthcare services and responds to the priority health needs of the residents of Lake County, especially among the uninsured or underinsured. NMHC supported Erie in planning for and obtaining grant funding to open a new FQHC for medically underserved residents in Lake County
Patient education of financial assistance eligibility	Schedule H, part VI, Line 3 There are many ways that patients of the Hospitals are informed or made aware of the availability of the Hospital's various financial assistance programs: a. To increase awareness of its financial assistance programs, the Hospitals have developed brochures (in English and Spanish) that are provided to patients upon admission and available at registration points-of-entry. b. English and Spanish-language signs notifying patients that financial assistance is available are present at every patient registration area, including the emergency department. c. As part of the registration process, patients are provided with a financial assistance information brochure which describes the types of assistance available and how to qualify for one or more of the programs. d. The general consent form that every patient signs contains information about the NMHC financial assistance programs, and is available in English, Spanish, Russian and Polish at NMH, while NLFH has programs in english and spanish. e. Inpatients receive a Patient Welcome Package that includes the financial assistance information. f. Patients can learn about and assess their eligibility for the Hospital's financial assistance programs with the help of the Hospital's team of financial counseling and patient inquiry representatives. These representatives are available on a walk-in basis or through a toll-free number. g. Processes are in place to link patients with financial counselors and patient inquiry representatives when financial hardship is identified as a concern during social services assessments. h. The entry portal to the NMH and NLFH websites contain a prominent link to information about NMH's various financial assistance programs, the financial assistance brochure and downloadable applications in multiple languages. i. Working in conjunction with clinical staff, financial counselors visit inpatients not enrolled in government or private health plans while they are still in the hospital to assist them in determining their eligibility for both government health programs and for Hospital Free and Discounted Care programs. j. The Hospitals inform uninsured patients, and patients with an outstanding balance after insurance, of the availability of various financial assistance programs, including the free care and discounted care program, and the catastrophic program offered by the Hospitals, in written correspondence sent to those patients. This information includes the toll-free phone number to the team of patient account representatives. k. The Hospitals have on-site patient account staff who are trained and available to assist patients with financial assistance. l. The Hospitals provide proactive financial counseling for self-pay patients who have a scheduled inpatient admission. Financial counseling includes assessment for publicly or privately funded insurance and the Hospitals' financial assistance programs. Financial assistance programs, includes the free care and discounted care programs, and the catastrophic program offered by the Hospitals, in written correspondence sent to those patients. This information includes the toll-free phone number to the team of patient account representatives.
Community Information	Schedule H, Part VI, Line 4 Populations and Communities Served by NMHC The communities served by NMHC hospitals are complex and diverse, encompassing rural, suburban and urban areas, with a range of socio-economic statuses and the social determinants of health that correspond to these demographics. Northwestern Memorial Hospital Service Area NMH divides its total service area into three geographic areas: the primary service area (PSA), the city of Chicago and the surrounding seven-county area. The PSA, which is defined by the 22 ZIP codes surrounding NMH, accounts for 42 percent of inpatient admissions. The city of Chicago in total accounts for 66 percent of inpatient admissions. Source: EPSi FY15 Q3 YTD (through May 31, 2015). The community in NMH's PSA has a large population that continues to grow at a rate exceeding that of the overall city of Chicago. Between 2015 and 2020, the population in NMH's PSA is projected to increase by 2.8 percent, and the population of Chicago is projected to increase by 1.0 percent. Chicago is a diverse city with large Black and Hispanic populations and a growing Asian/Pacific Islander population. NMH is committed to providing culturally competent care that is responsive to the needs of all our patients. NMH works with community health centers in some of Chicago's medically underserved areas to identify priority health concerns and jointly develop community based health initiatives designed to address healthcare disparities. NMH's primary service area and the city of Chicago are both within Cook County. A recently conducted assessment of Cook County concluded that the median age of residents of Cook County (35.5) is lower that the median age of residents of Illinois (36.8) or the United States (37.3). In Cook County, 23.4 percent of the population are infants, children or adolescents (age 0-17); another 64.4 percent are age 18 to 64, while 12.2 percent are age 65 and older. Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital Service Area NLFH primarily serves Lake County. Lake County has approximately 728,000 residents, is defined by 28 ZIP codes, and accounts for 90 percent of inpatient admissions at NLFH. Between 2015 and 2020, the population of Lake County is projected to increase by 0.5 percent. The demographic makeup of the population is expected to change, with an increased percentage of Hispanic (1.3 percent), Asian (0.8 percent) and those who are considered two or more races (0.3 percent), while the percentage of White population is expected to decrease over this time (1.6 percent). In Lake County, 26.8 percent of the population are ages 0-17; another 62.3 percent are age 18 to 64, while 10.9 percent are age 65 and older. The median age of Lake County residents is 37.0, which is comparable to both state and national medians. Central DuPage Hospital Service Area CDH divides its total service area into two geographic areas: the primary service area (PSA) defined by 11 ZIP codes; and the secondary service area (SSA) defined by an additional 22 ZIP codes. The PSA accounts for 45 percent of inpatient admissions. The 33 ZIP Codes included in the PSA and SSA account for 69 percent of inpatient admissions. The population of CDH's PSA is projected to grow at a rate slower than that of the surrounding secondary service area. Between 2015 and 2020, the population in CDH's PSA is projected to increase by 1.8 percent, and the population in CDH's SSA is projected to increase by 2.7 percent. CDH's service areas are projected to become more diverse in the next five years. Each non-white race is anticipating growth with the most significant change experienced in the Latino and Asian populations. In DuPage County, 23.4 percent of the population are infants, children or adolescents (age 0-17); another 64.4 percent are age 18 to 64, while 12.2 percent are age 65 and older. The median age in DuPage County (38.4) is slightly older than that of Illinois overall (36.8) and the United States (37.3). Between 2000 and 2010, the number of DuPage County residents over age 65 increased by 19.8 percent . This has driven the need for healthcare services associated with conditions of aging including heart, vascular, stroke and cancer care and for resources to manage chronic conditions commonly found in older populations. Delnor Hospital Service Area Delnor divides its total service area into two geographic areas: the primary service area (PSA) defined by five ZIP codes; and the secondary service area (SSA) defined by an additional 15 ZIP codes. The PSA accounts for 54 percent of inpatient admissions. The 20 ZIP Codes included in the PSA and SSA account for 82 percent of inpatient admissions. Delnor's primary and secondary service areas have populations that are growing at the same rate. Between 2015 and 2020, the population in Delnor's PSA is projected to increase by 1.3 percent, and the population in Delnor's SSA is projected to increase by 1.3 percent. The demographic profiles of Delnor's service areas are projected to change very little in the next five years. While a majority of the designated races show growth, the largest noticeable increase is the Asian population within the SSA at 0.3 percent over the next five years. In addition, individuals who identify as a Hispanic or Latino ethnicity are expected to grow 0.9 percent within the SSA. Kane County is overall the seventh youngest county in Illinois, and it is notable for its age distribution. From 1990 to 2010, the population increased by 60 percent and the age distribution shifted rapidly. The median age in Kane County is 34.5 years. The largest age group is the 5- to 14-year-olds, but the fastest-growing segment of the population is 55- to 69-year-olds. Delnor's primary service area reflects a relatively older community, with only 27 percent of the population younger than 18. During the past two decades, Kane County has experienced significant growth in the population of 55 to 69 year olds. This will drive the need for greater healthcare services for heart and vascular, stroke, diabetes and cancer as well as preventive and wellness services.
Promotion of Community health	schedule H, Part VI, Line 5 As described in earlier sections, NMHC believes that its mission to improve the health of the communities it serves is best accomplished in collaboration with partners in the community. The CHNA process and ongoing input from community health partners inform how the hospitals of NMHC prioritize and address community health needs. Along with our many care locations in the communities, our community affiliations help us to provide care to residents of our communities near where they live or work, with streamlined pathways to access medically necessary hospital-based care. Access to Care Access to care was identified as a priority health need in the CHNA process for all four of the NMHC hospitals. Approaches to improving access to care were developed to meet the needs of the hospitals' diverse communities and included strategies to: " Ensure adequate capacity for primary care in the community " Strengthen and expand patient affiliation with high quality patient-centered medical homes " Assist patients in understanding private and public insurance, especially among those newly insured under the Affordable Care Act plans and new Medicaid Managed Care products " Provide free health screenings and follow-up diagnostic and specialty care " Underwrite medically necessary care for underinsured and uninsured low-income patients Erie HealthReach Waukegan Health Center NMHC helped to organize and fund the development of Erie HealthReach Waukegan Health Center (EHWHC), opened in 2014 in response to the critical need for primary care services for the uninsured, estimated at more than 75,000 Lake County residents at that time . EHWHC has vastly expanded access to primary care for those with no insurance or unable to pay for healthcare in Lake County. In fiscal year 2015 , more than 2,800 patients received more than 10,000 patient visits, and in the first half of fiscal year 2016 , already more than 2,900 patients have received care. The site serves as a patient-centered medical home, providing primary, preventive and dental care. Health education and chronic disease self-management programs established at other Erie sites (described further in this report) have been successfully replicated at the Lake County facility. NMHC continues its support through a multi-year donation of operational funds. McGaw Family Medicine residents began training and providing care at EHWHC beginning in July, 2015. Family Medicine residents provide primary, preventive, acute and chronic healthcare services across all ages and in both office-based and hospital settings, ensuring that the right care is given in the most appropriate setting. Following the model in place between NMH and its affiliated community healthcare partners in Chicago, EHWHC patients are referred for medically necessary services at NLFH, and between January and November, 2015, more than 600 patients received diagnostic and specialty care at NLFH under this arrangement. Access DuPage Leaders of CDH were among the founding members of Access DuPage and CDH continues to provide financial support and leadership to its work. Access DuPage is a collaborative of healthcare organizations in DuPage County that provides navigation and case management support to enable families with no insurance or inadequate insurance to connect with patient-centered medical homes at area FQHCs and parish providers, access medically-necessary hospital care, purchase affordable prescription medicines and navigate complicated insurance networks and restrictions. In 2014, 6,000 DuPage County residents received care through Access DuPage. Engage DuPage Residents of DuPage County without health insurance may also need access of a broader range of social services including housing, supplemental food programs and mental healthcare. Residents with complex needs are at significantly higher risk for a range of poor health outcomes. Often the only interface a person with multiple health and social service needs has with the health system is through an emergency room visit; however, emergency medical providers are limited in their capacity to help address broader social services needs. Recognizing this, CDH implemented the Engage DuPage program in collaboration with the DuPage County Health department to provide intervention services to patients needing assistance connecting with medical homes, supportive housing, supplemental nutrition programs and mental health services. Northwestern Follow-up Clinic Having an established medical home is critical to both maintaining good health and effectively accessing the broader healthcare system. Those without a primary care provider often seek care in hospital emergency departments, for both routine illnesses and treatment of unmanaged chronic medical conditions. Because hospital emergency departments are designed for treatment and stabilization of acute episodes of injury and illness, they are not positioned to provide primary care, or the kind of ongoing care needed by patients with complex or chronic illnesses. Patients seen in an emergency department are typically instructed to schedule follow-up care with their medical home. When patients do not have an established medical home - whether due to lack of health insurance or gaps or changes in network coverage - or if they experience any of a number of psychosocial, financial, language or literacy challenges, it is unlikely that follow-up care will be a priority and they many not seek it in a timely manner or at all. All of this contributes to the detrimental cycle of seeking care in the emergency department without the benefit of ongoing care for the management of chronic or complex medical conditions, which then often worsen. In response to the need to help patients connect with a consistent medical home following emergency visits, NMH developed and opened the Northwestern Follow-up Clinic (NFC). The NFC is designed to provide a bridge between emergency room care and ongoing care with a permanent medical home. Access to the NFC begins in the emergency department or the inpatient unit if a patient is identified as not having a medical home. In these cases, NMH staff assist patients in scheduling a follow-up appointment at the NFC as part of the discharge process. At the NFC, a board-certified internal medicine physician or an advanced practice nurse take a comprehensive medical history and provide follow-up care for as many encounters as are necessary to ensure medical stability, without regard to the patient's ability to pay, including providing medically necessary medication at low or no cost. When a patient is medically stable and has established a complete medical history, initiating a relationship with a primary care provider can be effectively facilitated. Social workers at the NFC provide educational, psychosocial and literacy support and assist patients in identifying and initiating contact with the permanent primary care provider or clinic with which the patient can establish a long-term relationship. As with patients in other settings at NMH, NFC patients are provided the opportunity to participate in clinical research studies when medically appropriate and potentially beneficial. In cases where patients are experiencing difficulty accessing the primary care provider or a medical home assigned to them through a new insurance product, the NFC staff will assist them in identifying an available medical home and will continue to provide care even if the NFC is out of their insurance network. In addition, the NFC staff will assist patients eligible for enrollment in government healthcare programs to complete applications. In a new program implemented in fiscal year 2015, NFC patients with a history of multiple emergency department visits are assessed for psychosocial needs including housing, supplemental nutrition programs, mental health services, vocational programs and other supportive programs. Those meeting high-risk assessment thresholds are connected with special health advocates within the NFC, who provide intensive support services that enable patients to complete follow-up medical visits, access medically necessary specialty and mental healthcare, apply for housing and vocational programs, and effectively link into social service and health insurance programs for which the patient qualifies. Since the program began in May, 2015, more than 50 individuals have received help through this program and connected with long-term health, housing and employment programs. The NFC has grown into the largest touch point for transitional care medicine in NMHC. Since its inception, the NFC has had more than 9,000 patient encounters and transitioned more than 5,000 patients to a medical home. Often the medical home is a Near North or Erie site, and as such, patients are able to continue to receive care at NMH for medically necessary diagnostic, specialty and inpatient care.

Monitoring use of Grant funds

THE MAJORITY OF THE GRANTS FROM THE NORTHWESTERN MEMORIAL HEALTHCARE GROUP ARE ADMINISTERED THROUGH NORTHWESTERN MEMORIAL FOUNDATION ("NMF"). NMF MAINTAINS DETAILED RECORDS AND INTERNAL CONTROL PROCEDURES TO ENSURE GRANT RECIPIENTS ARE QUALIFIED, AWARD AMOUNTS ARE DOCUMENTED AND SELECTION CRITERIA ARE CLEAR. ONCE A GRANT HAS BEEN AWARDED, NMF INITIATES A WRITTEN AGREEMENT WITH THE GRANT RECIPIENT THAT INCORPORATES A BUDGET AND TIME PERIOD FOR SPENDING THE GRANT DOLLARS. REASONABLE DIRECT COSTS, SUPPORTED BY DIRECT BUDGET JUSTIFICATION AND RELATED TO THE PROJECT'S PURPOSE, ARE ALLOWABLE. RECIPIENTS AGREE TO ABIDE BY THE BUDGET AND ALL RELEVANT POLICIES IN EFFECT AT NORTHWESTERN MEMORIAL HEALTHCARE. GRANT EXPENDITURES ARE MONITORED FOR COMPLIANCE WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE AGREEMENTS, AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR TO ENSURE THAT BUDGETS ARE FOLLOWED AND EXPENSES ARE APPROPRIATE. AT THE END OF EACH BUDGET PERIOD, NMF REQUIRES THE GRANT RECIPIENT TO SUBMIT A WRITTEN NARRATIVE AND FINANCIAL REPORT OUTLINING PROJECT ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND HOW THE GRANT DOLLARS WERE EXPENDED. UNEXPENDED FUNDS ARE RETURNED TO NMF. GRANTS PROVIDED BY NORTHWESTERN MEMORIAL HOSPITAL AND NORTHWESTERN LAKE FOREST HOSPITAL TO OTHER QUALIFYING TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATIONS ARE SUPPORTED BY A GRANT AGREEMENT THAT DEFINES ANY RESTRICTIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE GRANT AND ANY RELATED REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. THE GUIDING PHILOSOPHY OF CDH-DELNOR HEALTH SYSTEM'S CHARITABLE GRANT ACTIVITY IS TO NOT ONLY CONTRIBUTE OUR OWN RESOURCES, BUT TO ACTIVELY ENGAGE PARTNERS TO ASSESS, PLAN FOR AND MEET COMMUNITY HEALTH AND MEDICAL NEEDS. CDH-DELNOR HEALTH SYSTEM WORKS VERY CLOSELY WITH ITS PARTNERS IN THE PROGRAMS THAT ARE SUPPORTED, IN PART, BY CDH-DELNOR HEALTH SYSTEM. MONITORING THE USE OF GRANT FUNDS IS ACHIEVED THROUGH VARIOUS MEANS, INCLUDING ACTIVE PARTICIPATION IN PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION, WRITTEN CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS, PERFORMANCE REPORTS AND BOARD PARTICIPATION IN SOME INSTANCES REPORTS AND BOARD PARTICIPATION IN SOME INSTANCES.

Supplemental Information

Provide the information, explanation, or descriptions required for Part I, lines 1a, 1b, 3, 4a, 4b, 4c, 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7, and 8, and for Part II.
Also complete this part for any additional information.

Return Reference	Explanation
NON FIXED PAYMENTS	The bonus and incentive compensation amounts listed in column (B)(ii) for all listed individuals were nonfixed amounts. Incentive compensation amounts are at risk and are not paid unless there is exceptional individual and organizational performance in accordance with substantial pre-approved goals. The incentive compensation listed for certain physicians is for personal professional productivity and for performance in improving the quality of patient care.
SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN	There are two different nonqualified deferred compensation plans sponsored by Northwestern Memorial Healthcare, which provide supplemental, competitive retirement benefits. The employer pays the cost of participation, and the benefits and contributions are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture based on the completion of substantial service requirements. The amounts earned by participants fluctuate from year to year based on a variety of factors including changes in market interest rates. Peter McCanna completed one portion of the substantial service requirements during the reporting period, which caused him to become vested in and taxable on supplemental retirement benefits that had been earned 5 years prior. Participants in one or both of the plans who are listed on the schedule are Julia Creamer, Dean Harrison, Michelle Janney, Dean Manheimer, Thomas McAfee, Peter McCanna, Daniel Derman, Stephen Falk, Michael Vivoda and Douglas Young.
Contingent Compensation	5a Revenue: Certain listed individuals are employed as physicians. The compensation listed in Schedule J is provided solely in connection with their employment as physicians, and is in part based on revenues associated with their personally performed services. The compensation listed is for the clinical and administrative services provided within the Northwestern memorial HealthCare group. The majority of these physicians are also compensated by an unrelated organization (Northwestern University Feinberg school of medicine) through a common paymaster for their academic and research efforts. The compensation listed in schedule J does not include academic and research compensationfrom the unrelated organization.
health club dues	Employees of Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital are offered discounted health and fitness club dues at Lake Forest Health and Fitness Institute. The amount of the discount is treated as taxable income for each of the employees.
Group Titles and Compensation Presentation	Form 990, Part VII, section A, line 1A Northwestern Memorial HealthCare (NMHC), is the direct parent organization for Northwestern Memorial Hospital (NMH), Northwestern Memorial Foundation (NMF), Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation, doing business as Northwestern medical Group (NMG), Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital (NLFH) and CDH-Delnor Health system (CDHS). NMHC is also the indirect parent for Northwestern Medical Group management services (NMNMS), Lake Forest Health and Fitness Institute (HFI), Central Dupage Hospital Association (CDHA), Central Dupage Physician Group (CDPG), Delnor -Community HospitAL (DCH) and Cadence Health Foundation (CHF) which was merged into NMF on August 31, 2015.. These twelve corporations have combined through the election under Regulation 1.6033-2 (d) (5) to report the directors, officers, key employees and five highly compensated employees under the Group Return requirements for Form 990 for the fiscal year ended 8/31/2015. No organization in this Group Return compensates its directors for services performed as directors. Where compensation is reported for a director, the compensation is associated with another position held within the twelve corporations. Certain individuals hold multiple positions throughout these twelve corporations. In order to simplify the reporting, their names are listed only once per Form 990, Part VII and Schedule J. Each individual listed has his or her organization's initials listed next to their respective name and the box checked for their position at that corporation.

4a	(Code: ) (Expenses $ 1,098,192,205 including grants of $ 10,754,593 ) (Revenue $ 1,477,034,518 )
	Northwestern Memorial Hospital For more than 150 years, NMH and its predecessor institutions, Passavant Memorial and Wesley Memorial hospitals, have served residents of Chicago. The commitment to provide healthcare, regardless of the ability to pay, reaches back to the founding principles of Passavant and Wesley and continues to be integral to our Patients First mission. NMH serves as the primary teaching hospital for Feinberg, with more than 2,000 physicians on the medical staff and carrying faculty appointments at Feinberg. NMG has more than 1,100 physicians representing virtually every medical specialty and serving as fulltime faculty of Feinberg. NMH is among only seven percent of the nation's hospitals designated as an AMC hospital, which according to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), in aggregate deliver a vastly disproportionate share of the nation's trauma, intensive care and tertiary services; provide a significantly higher proportion of Medicaid care than non-teaching hospitals; and underwrite 41 percent of all hospital-based charity care . NMH is an adult acute care hospital located in Chicago's growing downtown area and saw more than 44,000 adults admitted as inpatients in fiscal year 2015. As an adult Level I trauma center in downtown Chicago with 24/7 service, NMH had more than 86,000 Emergency Department (ED) visits in fiscal year 2015. NMH is also the only AMC hospital in Chicago participating in both city and state Level I trauma networks and as a Level III neonatal intensive care unit, allowing us to provide lifesaving care and treatment to the most seriously injured adults and premature and sick infants. NMH has the largest birthing center in Illinois, with more than 12,000 deliveries in fiscal year 2015. NMH also serves an important role for patients outside of Chicago. As a nationally ranked AMC hospital and a major referral center in the Midwest and beyond, NMH is one of a limited number of places in the region where patients requiring advanced tertiary, quaternary or specialty services can access the care and services they need.

4b	(Code: ) (Expenses $ 889,163,396 including grants of $ 1,200,000 ) (Revenue $ 878,259,078 )

Today, CDH is a 347-bed acute-care facility with more than 1,000 physicians on the medical staff in 90 specialties. In fiscal year 2015, CDH had more than 21,000 inpatient admissions and 59,000 ED visits.
