PART II - COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES AS PART OF ITS EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH STATUS OF ITS CORE COMMUNITIES, HALLMARK HEALTH PARTICIPATES IN A VARIETY OF BROAD-BASED COMMUNITY COALITIONS AND INITIATIVES THAT WORK TOWARDS ADDRESSING THE SPECIFIC AND GENERAL HEALTH NEEDS IN THESE CITIES AND TOWNS. A SAMPLE OF CURRENT ACTIVITIES INCLUDE: THE JOINT COMMITTEE FOR CHILDREN'S HEALTHCARE IN EVERETT, MYSTIC VALLEY ELDER SERVICES PROVIDER TASK FORCE, LOCAL COUNCILS ON AGING, HEALTHY FAMILIES COMMUNITY COALITION,LOCAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION COALITIONS IN MELROSE,MEDFORD,READING,SAUGUS, STONEHAM AND WAKEFIELD,AS WELL AS REGIONAL MASSACHUSETTS OPIOID ABUSE PREVENTION COLLABORATIVE(MOAPC)AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION COLLABORATIVE (SAPC),BOTH PROGRAMS OF THE MYSTIC VALLEY PUBLIC HEALTH COALITION. HALLMARK HEALTH ALSO PARTNERS WITH MALDEN, EVERETT, AND MEDFORD COORDINATED FAMILY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT (CFCE) GRANT PROGRAMS FUNDED BY THE MA DEPARTMENT OF EARLY EDUCATION AND CARE, THE TRI-CITY HUNGER NETWORK AND TRI-CITY HOMELESSNESS TASK FORCE, AND A HOST OF OTHER COMMUNITY-BASED AND GUIDED COALITIONS AND INIATIVES. A SPECIFIC EXAMPLE OF THIS COMMUNITY BUILDING INCLUDES HALLMARK HEALTH'S REPRESENTATION ON THE MELROSE ALLIANCE AGAINST VIOLENCE (MAAV). MAAV IS A NON-PROFIT,COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATION THAT FOCUSES ON OUTREACH, EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY COLLABORATION IN ORDER TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE PROBLEMS OF VIOLENCE IN MELROSE.WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE MELROSE POLICE DEPARTMENT , THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF MAAV INCLUDES TWO REPRESENTATIVES FROM HALLMARK HEALTH, AS WELL AS MEMBERS FROM THE MELROSE SCHOOLS, CLERGY, HEALTH DEPARTMENT, AS WELL AS STUDENTS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS AT LARGE. IN ADDITION, HALLMARK HEALTH HAS CONTINUED TO OPERATE A NUMBER OF COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAMS TO ASSIST WITH COLLECTION OF COMMUNITY NEED INFORMATION AND HEALTH EDUCATION AND SCREENINGS. THE TEAMS HAVE SPONSORED EVENTS RANGING FROM INFORMAL (PLANNING, HEALTH EVENTS AND SCREENINGS) TO MORE FORMAL (HEALTHY MELROSE, DIABETES DAY, MOBILE FOOD MARKET), OFFERING MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITIES TO INTERACT WITH A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO FORM TRUSTING RELATIONSHIPS, LISTENING TO THE VOICES OF INDIVIDUAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS, AND FOSTERING THE DEVELOPMENT OF RESILIENCE WITHIN EACH COMMUNITY. AS HALLMARK HEALTH BEGINS THE SECOND YEAR OF ITS IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, IT CONTINUES TO UTILIZE THE COLLECTIVE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TEAM CAPTAINS. THE TEAMS' ORGANIZING CHARTER GUIDES THE MEMBERSHIP TOWARD SALIENT ACTIVITIES. RELEVANT HEALTH DATA AND THE IDENTIFIED TARGET POPULATION LISTS ARE PROVIDED TO EACH TEAM CAPTAIN TO ASSIST THEM IN PLANNING PROGRAMS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. CURRENTLY, THERE ARE SIX (6) COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAMS NAMED FOR MALDEN, MEDFORD, MELROSE, WAKEFIELD, READING/NORTH READING AND STONEHAM. THE TEAMS CONTINUOUSLY SOLICIT INPUT FROM COMMUNITY LEADERS INCLUDING SUPERINTENDENTS OF SCHOOLS, STATE REPRESENTATIVES, BUSINESS LEADERS, FIRE AND POLICE OFFICIALS AND LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. MANY EMPLOYEES SERVING ON TEAMS ALSO PARTICIPATE IN OTHER COMMUNITY GROUPS AND CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS. MORE THAN 60 EMPLOYEES, VOLUNTEERS, AND PHYSICIANS WERE INVOLVED IN TEAM- SPONSORED EVENTS IN FISCAL YEAR 2015/TAX YEAR 2014 (FY 2015/TY 2014). THE COMMUNITY TEAM EFFORTS HAVE BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED BY FOUR AREA CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE, OTHER CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS, THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION, AND THE MASSACHUSETTS HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION.
PART III, LINE 2 - BAD DEBT EXPENSE METHODOLOGY HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM, INC. DEVELOPED A COST TO CHARGE RATIO AND APPLIED IT TO THE BAD DEBT ACCOUNT CHARGES THAT WERE ACTUALLY WRITTEN-OFF.
BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOOTNOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THE FOLLOWING IS FROM THE HALLMARK HEALTH CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, OF WHICH HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM IS INCLUDED, RELATING TO CHARITY CARE AND BAD DEBT EXPENSE : 2015 CHARITY CARE AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOOTNOTE CHARITY CARE - THE CORPORATION PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. CONSISTENT WITH ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS AND COMMUNITY SERVICE RESPONSIBILITIES, THE CORPORATION PROVIDES FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN THE FORM OF FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER THE CORPORATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY. IN ASSESSING A PATIENT'S INABILITY TO PAY, THE CORPORATION UTILIZES FEDERAL POVERTY INCOME GUIDELINES AND FOLLOWS PROCEDURES SET FORTH IN ITS CREDIT AND COLLECTION POLICY, WHICH HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS DIVISION OF HEALTHCARE FINANCE AND POLICY. BECAUSE THE CORPORATION DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, THESE AMOUNTS ARE NOT REPORTED AS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. DURING THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 AND 2014,THE CORPORATION ESTIMATED THAT THE COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE CHARITY CARE PROVIDED WAS APPROXIMATELY 332,000 AND 1,584,000, RESPECTIVELY. SUCH COSTS HAVE BEEN ESTIMATED BASED ON RATIO OF EXPENSES ( EXCLUDING BAD DEBT ) TO ESTABLISHED PATIENT SERVICE CHARGES. BAD DEBTS - THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IN THE ACCOMPANYING CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS REFLECTS THE CHARGES AT ESTABLISHED RATES FOR SERVICES PROVIDED TO THOSE INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE UNDER THE GUIDELINES DESCRIBED ABOVE, AND WHO ARE OTHERWISE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE CORPORATION.THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS OF 8,261,000 AND 8,814,000 IN 2015 AND 2014, RESPECTIVELY, REPRESENTS THE CHARGES FOR SERVICES PROVIDED THAT ARE DEEMED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE. THE ESTIMATED COST OF PROVIDING THESE SERVICES DEEMED UNCCLLECTIBLE WAS APPROXIMATELY 3,489,000 FOR 2015 AND 3,733,000 FOR 2014. HEALTH SAFETY NET (HSN) - THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS (THE "COMMONWEALTH") ADMINISTERS A HEALTH SAFETY NET (THE HSN) TO ACT AS THE "PAYOR OF LAST RESORT" FOR COVERED HEALTH CARE SERVICES PROVIDED BY ACUTE HOSPITALS AND COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS IN THE COMMONWEALTH.

PART VI, LINE 2 - NEEDS ASSESSMENT HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT HOSPITAL THAT OPERATES TO FURTHER THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE HEALTH STATUS TO THE COMMUNITIES THAT WE SERVE THROUGH THE DELIVERY OF HEALTHCARE SERVICES AND EDUCATION. THIS EFFORT IS ACHIEVED BY: -RE-INVESTING SURPLUS FUNDS BACK INTO COMMUNITIES THROUGH PROGRAMS AND SERVICES. -MAKING SURE THAT CARE IS AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE - REGARDLESS OF THE ABILITY TO PAY. -USING COMPASSION AS A CORNERSTONE IN IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITIES. -ATTENDING TO THE NEEDS OF PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS BY ADDRESSING THE NEEDS OF THE WHOLE PERSON NOT JUST AS A DISEASE OR A DIAGNOSIS. -PROVIDING A RANGE OF SPECIAL BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS PROGRAMS TO MANAGE CARE FOR PERSONS WITH CHRONIC DISEASES, HEALTH EDUCATION AND DISEASE PREVENTION INITIATIVES, OUTREACH FOR THE ELDERLY, AND CARE FOR PERSONS WHO ARE POOR OR UNINSURED. IN COMPLIANCE WITH IRS GUIDELINES, A YEAR-LONG PROCESS TO DEVELOP A FORMAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) WAS COMPLETED BY HALLMARK HEALTH IN AUGUST 2013, IN COLLABORATION WITH THE INSTITUTE FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH (ICH), A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION RECOGNIZED FOR COMMUNITY-BASED PARTICIPATORY RESEARCH, ASSESSMENT, AND DISSEMINATION. THIS PROCESS INCLUDED A REVIEW OF REPUTABLE PUBLIC HEALTH, SOCIO-ECONOMIC, AND FOUNDATION DATA; INPUT FROM THE HALLMARK HEALTH COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL, COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAMS, PATIENT/FAMILY ADVISORY COUNCIL, LOCAL COMMUNITY COALITIONS, AND THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NETWORK AREAS MEMBERSHIP. STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS AND COMMUNITY SURVEYS WERE ALSO COMPLETED. REFLECTING IRS REQUIREMENTS, AND TO FOSTER TRANSPARENCY, THE ENTIRE CHNA AS WELL AS AN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF ITS FINDINGS ARE POSTED ON THE HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM WEBSITE AND IN PRINTED VERSIONS AT EACH HOSPITAL CAMPUS AND OTHER KEY SERVICE DELIVERY LOCATIONS IN THE CATCHMENT AREA.THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S NEXT CHNA IS CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT, AND WILL BE COMPLETED BY AUGUST 2016 AS PER IRS FINAL REGULATIONS. ONGOING MONITORING OF THE CHNA AND ITS IDENTIFIED HEALTH PRIORITIES IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL. AS OF THE END OF FY 2015/TY 2014, THE HALLMARK HEALTH COUNCIL IS COMPRISED OF A MEMBER OF THE HOSPITAL'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES; THE SYSTEM VICE PRESIDENT FOR HOME CARE & COMMUNITY PROGRAMS WHO CHAIRS THE COUNCIL ,EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF LEGAL OFFICER;THE ASSOCIATE CHIEF NURSING OFFICER FOR AMBULATORY SERVICES;CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER; FISCAL CONTROLLER; MANAGER, CASE MANAGEMENT, AN LICSW; MANAGER, CENTRAL SCHEDULING, INSURANCE COORDINATION AND INTERPRETER SERVICES; TWO HALLMARK HEALTH-AFFILIATED PHYSICIANS; FOUR COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES; THE DIRECTOR, COMMUNITY SERVICES; AND THE MANAGER,COMMUNITY BENEFITS. THE COUNCIL ACTS AS OVERSEERS FOR THE CHNA, AND DEFINES THE PROCESS FOR RECOGNIZING CURRENT AND EMERGING HEALTH NEEDS IN THE COMMUNITY, AS WELL AS DEVELOPING A MULTI-YEAR COMMUNITY BENEFITS IMPLEMENTATION PLAN TO RESPOND TO THESE NEEDS.AT THE START OF FY 2015/TY 2014, THE COUNCIL REVIEWED THE FY 2014-16 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AND MADE AMENDMENTS AS REQUIRED TO REFLECT NEW PROGRAMS OR SHIFTS IN EXISTING PROGRAMS AS APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES.THE COUNCIL MEETS SIX TIMES PER YEAR TO PROVIDE INPUT TO THE ONGOING EXECUTION OF THE PLAN, DISCUSS ONGOING COMMUNITY HEALTH ISSUES, MONITOR THE STATE AND FEDERAL REPORTING PROCESSES FOR COMMUNITY BENEFITS, AND OFFER INPUT TO THE GOVERNING BOARD REGARDING EMERGING AND NEWLY IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS.THE COUNCIL ADDED AS NEW MEMBERS THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF A LOCAL HUNGER RELIEF AND FOOD PANTRY PROGRAM, AND A REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE MA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH, IN FY 2015/TY 2014. RECRUITMENT OF COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES, REFLECTING THE VULNERABLE POPULATIONS IN THE COMMUNITY AND REPRESENTING DIVERSE CONSTITUENCIES AND VIEWPOINTS, TAKES PLACES ON AN ONGOING BASIS. HALLMARK HEALTH ALSO ACTIVELY PARTICIPATED WITH THE COMMUNITY THROUGH ITS COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAMS, SOLICITING INPUT FROM KEY COMMUNITY LEADERS, INCLUDING SUPERINTENDENTS OF SCHOOLS, STATE REPRESENTATIVES, BUSINESS LEADERS, FIRE AND POLICE PERSONNEL AND LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. ADDITIONAL APPROACHES INCLUDE WORK AS MEMBERS OF COMMUNITY COALITIONS AND WITH THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NETWORK AREAS (CHNA 15 AND 16) DESIGNATED BY THE MA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH. THESE HAVE PROVEN EFFECTIVE IN GAINING VITAL PERSPECTIVE AROUND THE HEALTH NEEDS OF LOCAL RESIDENTS, AND IN TAILORING OUTREACH MESSAGES AND PROGRAMMING BASED ON WHAT CONSTITUENCIES AND COMMUNITIES VALUE MOST. (COMMUNITY TEAMS FUNCTIONS ARE FURTHER EXPLAINED IN THE DESCRIPTION OF COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES IN PART II.) ANOTHER WAY THAT HALLMARK HEALTH ASSESSES NEEDS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY IS THROUGH THE PATIENT/FAMILY ADVISORY COUNCIL (PFAC). THIS COUNCIL WAS FORMED TO OBTAIN FEEDBACK AND IDEAS FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS ON HOW THE HOSPITALS CAN BE MORE RECEPTIVE TO THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF COMMUNITY RESIDENTS, ESPECIALLY THOSE OF DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS, AND TO PROMOTE THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF PATIENT-CENTERED SERVICES BY FOSTERING A STRONG PARTNERSHIP THROUGH OUTREACH ACTIVITIES WITH COMMUNITY RESIDENTS. THE COUNCIL OFTEN ASSISTS HALLMARK HEALTH STAFF BY PROVIDING INPUT INTO THE PLANNING OF FUTURE COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES AND INITIATIVES. IN FY 2015/TY 2014, PFAC MEMBERS' INPUT WAS SOLICITED ON FURNITURE THAT HALLMARK HEALTH PURCHASED TO UPDATE AND IMPROVE PATIENT ROOMS, A COMPLETE REVISION OF THE HOSPITAL'S PATIENT WELCOME PACKETS, A UNIFORM, SYSTEM-WIDE PROTOCOL FOR PATIENT SIGN-IN PROCEDURES IN OUTPATIENT OFFICES, AND THE CREATION OF A MORE "USER- FRIENDLY" PATIENT DISCHARGE REPORT. PFAC MEMBERS RAISED QUESTIONS AROUND PATIENT CALL BUTTONS, SERVED ON A PILOT SUB-GROUP TO TEST THE HOSPITAL'S NEW ELECTRONIC PATIENT PORTAL, PROVIDED FEEDBACK ON THE HOSPITAL'S INTERPRETER SERVICES PROGRAM, AND REVIEWED AND COMMENTED ON PROPOSED RENOVATIONS TO THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AT LAWRENCE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. AS PART OF ITS EFFORTS TO IMPROVE HEALTH STATUS IN THE CATCHMENT AREA, HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM ALSO PARTICIPATES IN A VARIETY OF BROAD-BASED COMMUNITY COALITIONS AND INITIATIVES THAT WORK TOWARDS ADDRESSING THE SPECIFIC AND GENERAL HEALTH NEEDS IN THESE CITIES AND TOWNS. A SAMPLE OF THESE MEMBERSHIPS INCLUDE: MYSTIC VALLEY ELDER SERVICES PROVIDER TASK FORCE; LOCAL COUNCILS ON AGING; THE HEALTHY FAMILIES COMMUNITY COALITION; THE JOINT COMMITTEE FOR CHILDREN'S HEALTH CARE IN EVERETT (JCCHCE); MEDFORD HEALTH MATTERS; TRI-CITY HUNGER NETWORK; CHINESE CULTURE CONNECTION; SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION COALITIONS IN MELROSE, MEDFORD, WAKEFIELD, READING AND STONEHAM; THE MALDEN'S PROMISE COALITION; DPH MASS IN MOTION PROGRAMS IN MELROSE-WAKEFIELD, MALDEN, AND EVERETT; AND THE MELROSE, STONEHAM, AND WAKEFIELD ALLIANCES AGAINST VIOLENCE. ONE CENTRAL FOCUS OF HALLMARK HEALTH'S COMMUNITY BENEFITS WORK IS TO CONTINUE TO FOSTER RELATIONSHIPS WITH A WIDER ARRAY OF COMMUNITY GROUPS AND LOCAL LEADERS, INCLUDING FAITH-BASED AND GRASSROOTS ORGANIZATIONS. SUCH RELATIONSHIPS PROVIDE INSIGHT INTO HOW THESE GROUPS VIEW HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM'S ROLE IN THEIR COMMUNITY, HOW OUR SYSTEM CAN IMPROVE THE WAYS WE SERVE DIVERSE RESIDENTS, AND HOW THE SYSTEM SHOULD STRENGTHEN COLLABORATION TO BEST MEET DIVERGENT HEALTH NEEDS.
PART VI, LINE 3 - PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE MASSACHUSETTS HOSPITALS PROVIDE PATIENTS WITH INFORMATION ABOUT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS THROUGH THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS OR THROUGH THE HOSPITAL'S OWN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AS OUTLINED IN THE CREDIT AND COLLECTION POLICY.FOR THOSE PATIENTS THAT REQUEST SUCH ASSISTANCE,THE HOSPITAL ASSISTS PATIENTS BY SCREENING THEM FOR ELIGIBILTY IN AVAILABLE PUBLIC PROGRAMS AND ASSISTING THEM IN APPLYING FOR THE PROGRAMS.THE SCREENING AND APPLICATION PROCESS IS DONE THROUGH A SINGLE UNIFORM APPLICATION THAT IS SUBMITTED THROUGH THE THE HEALTH INSURANCE EXCHANGE (HIX) OR THROUGH A STANDARD PAPER APPLICATION. HOSPITALS HAVE NO ROLE IN SPECIFICALLY DETERMINING THE ELIGIBILITY FOR ENROLLMENT WITH A PUBLIC ASSISTANCE PROGRAM,BUT AT THE PATIENT'S REQUEST MAY TAKE A DIRECT ROLE IN APPEALING OR SEEKING INFORMATION RELATED TO THE COVERAGE DECISION.
PART VI, LINE 4 - COMMUNITY INFORMATION HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM (HHS) IS A COMMUNITY HOSPITAL SYSTEM, LOCATED ON TWO HOSPITAL CAMPUSES APPROXIMATELY TEN (10) MILES NORTH OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS. HALLMARK HEALTH'S OVERALL SERVICE AREA IS PRIMARILY WITHIN MIDDLESEX COUNTY, WITH SOME SLIGHT OVERLAP INTO ESSEX AND SUFFOLK COUNTIES. THE HHS COMMUNITY BENEFIT CATCHMENT AREA (AS DEFINED THROUGH THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROCESS) INCLUDES THE SIX CORE COMMUNITIES OF MALDEN, MEDFORD, MELROSE, READING, STONEHAM, AND WAKEFIELD, AND THREE SECONDARY COMMUNITIES OF EVERETT, NORTH READING, AND SAUGUS (HEREAFTER REFERRED TO AS "HHS CB"). THESE COMMUNITIES WERE SELECTED AND APPROVED BY LEADERSHIP BASED ON AN ASSESSMENT OF COMMUNITIES FROM WHICH HHS DRAWS ITS PATIENT POPULATION, COMMUNITIES WHERE HHS HAS AN EXISTING PHYSICAL OR PROGRAM PRESENCE, AS WELL AS LONG STANDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS OR ORGANIZATIONS. ADDITIONAL COMMUNITIES ARE SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY-BASED PROGRAMS THAT ARE PROXIMATE TO THE CATCHMENT AREA. FOR EXAMPLE, THE NORTH SUBURBAN WOMEN, INFANTS AND CHILDREN (WIC) PROGRAM SERVES THE TOWNS OF BURLINGTON, WILMINGTON, WINCHESTER, AND WOBURN IN ADDITION TO EIGHT OTHER CATCHMENT AREA CITIES AND TOWNS, AND THE NORTH SUBURBAN CHILD AND FAMILY RESOURCE NETWORK SERVES LYNNFIELD AND WINCHESTER, IN ADDITION TO FIVE OTHER CATCHMENT AREA COMMUNITIES. FOR PURPOSES OF MONITORING LANGUAGE NEEDS AND THE HOSPITAL'S INTERPRETER SERVICES PROGRAM, THE MA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH DEFINES A 12-COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT AREA FOR REVIEW, CONSISTING OF THE NINE CATCHMENT AREA CITIES AND TOWNS, PLUS THE ADDITIONAL COMMUNITIES OF REVERE, LYNNFIELD, AND WINTHROP, REFLECTING THEIR RELATIVE UTILIZATION OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND INPATIENT SERVICES OF THEIR POPULATIONS. THE FOLLOWING STATISTICAL AND DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE OF THE CATCHMENT AREA IS EXCERPTED FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE HHS FY 2013 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT: POPULATION SIZE & DENSITY THE HHS CB NINE-COMMUNITY CATCHMENT AREA COVERS 71.7 SQUARE MILES, WITH A TOTAL POPULATION OF 294,024. SIZE AND POPULATION DENSITY VARY BY COMMUNITY, WITH MALDEN AND MEDFORD HAVING THE LARGEST POPULATIONS AT 58,180 AND 55,451 RESPECTIVELY, AND NORTH READING THE SMALLEST, AT 14,536. MALDEN IS THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED COMMUNITY AT 11,408 PEOPLE PER SQUARE MILE, AND NORTH READING THE LEAST DENSELY POPULATED AT 1,077 PEOPLE PER SQUARE MILE. RACE/ETHNICITY & FOREIGN-BORN RESIDENTS COMPARED TO THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS, EVERETT, MALDEN AND MEDFORD HAVE LARGER POPULATIONS OF NON-WHITE RESIDENTS. THE REMAINING SIX COMMUNITIES ALL HAVE MOSTLY WHITE POPULATIONS. EVERETT, MALDEN AND MEDFORD ALSO HAVE LARGER POPULATIONS OF FOREIGN-BORN RESIDENTS (35%, 39% AND 21% RESPECTIVELY, COMPARED TO 15% STATEWIDE).

LANGUAGE BASED ON CENSUS DATA, THE MOST COMMON LANGUAGES SPOKEN IN THE CATCHMENT AREA, BESIDES ENGLISH, INCLUDE SPANISH, PORTUGUESE, CHINESE (MANDARIN AND CANTONESE DIALECTS), ARABIC, AND VIETNAMESE. IN MANY CASES, A MAJORITY OF THE SPEAKERS OF MANY OF THE MOST COMMON LANGUAGES ALSO REPORT THEIR SPOKEN ENGLISH PROFICIENCY AS "LESS THAN VERY WELL", INCLUDING PORTUGUESE (53.56%), CHINESE (67.26%), VIETNAMESE (58.59%), AND ARABIC (60.10%). OTHER LESS PREVALENT BUT BECOMING INCREASINGLY MORE COMMON LANGUAGES WITHIN THE CATCHMENT AREA INCLUDE HAITIAN CREOLE, FRENCH, ITALIAN, URDU, KHMER- CAMBODIAN, RUSSIAN, SERBO-CROATIAN, AND VARIOUS AFRICAN DIALECTS. HALLMARK HEALTH INTERPRETER SERVICES REPORTED AN INCREASE OF 1.7% FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR OF COMPLETED INTERPRETER REQUESTS, WITH 3,500 REQUESTS COMPLETED IN FY 2015/TY 2014. HALLMARK HEALTH CONTRACTS WITH A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR A VARIETY OF LANGUAGE INTERPRETERS AND ALSO WITH THE MASSACHUSETTS COMMISSION FOR THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING FOR AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE INTERPRETERS (ASL). THE PROGRAM ALSO EMPLOYS PER DIEM STAFF INTERPRETERS TO SUPPLEMENT THE INTERPRETER SERVICES CONTRACT. IN ADDITION, LANGUAGE LINE TELEPHONE INTERPRETER SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE FOR RARELY ENCOUNTERED LANGUAGES OR WHEN TIMELY IN-PERSON INTERPRETER SERVICES CANNOT BE ACCESSED, SUCH AS DURING EMERGENCIES. AGE & BIRTH RATES COMPARED TO MASSACHUSETTS, MEDFORD, MELROSE, SAUGUS, STONEHAM AND WAKEFIELD ALL HAVE LARGER ELDERLY POPULATIONS. EVERETT, NORTH READING AND READING HAVE LARGER POPULATIONS OF CHILDREN, AND THE AGE DISTRIBUTION IN MALDEN IS COMPARABLE TO THE STATE. LOOKING AT THE HHS CB SIX-COMMUNITY CORE CATCHMENT AREA AS A WHOLE, THE BIRTH RATE IS HIGHER THAN IN THE STATE FOR WOMEN AGES 30 TO 44 (74.3 BIRTHS PER 1,000 WOMEN VS. 58.4 BIRTHS PER 1,000 WOMEN STATEWIDE; SEE APPENDIX E). EVERETT, MALDEN, NORTH READING, READING, SAUGUS, AND STONEHAM ALL HAVE HIGHER BIRTH RATES THAN IN THE STATE FOR WOMEN AGES 20 TO 29, AND MALDEN, MEDFORD, MELROSE, READING, STONEHAM, AND WAKEFIELD HAVE HIGHER BIRTH RATES FOR WOMEN AGES 30 TO 44. INCOME, POVERTY & CRIME MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME LEVELS IN THE HHS CB CATCHMENT AREA RANGE FROM 49,737 IN EVERETT TO 99,130 IN READING, COMPARED TO A STATE MEDIAN INCOME LEVEL OF 64,509. COMPARED TO THE STATE, EVERETT AND MALDEN HAVE HIGHER POVERTY RATES FOR CHILDREN, FAMILIES, AND THE ELDERLY. MEDFORD AND STONEHAM HAVE HIGHER ELDERLY POVERTY RATES. NORTH READING, READING, STONEHAM AND WAKEFIELD - THE COMMUNITIES WITH THE HIGHEST MEDIAN INCOME LEVELS - HAVE LOWER OVERALL POVERTY RATES COMPARED TO THE STATE. CRIME RATES FOR VIOLENT AND PROPERTY CRIMES ARE HIGHER IN EVERETT AND MALDEN THAN IN THE STATE, AND MUCH LOWER THAN IN THE STATE FOR MELROSE, NORTH READING, READING, STONEHAM AND WAKEFIELD. SAUGUS HAS ALMOST TWICE THE STATE RATE OF PROPERTY CRIMES, BUT A LOWER VIOLENT CRIME RATE. EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT & UNEMPLOYMENT EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT VARIES BY COMMUNITY IN THE HHS CB CATCHMENT AREA. COMPARED TO THE STATE, EVERETT, MALDEN AND SAUGUS HAVE HIGHER PERCENTAGES OF RESIDENTS WITH ONLY A HIGH SCHOOL DEGREE OR LESS. RESIDENTS OF MEDFORD AND STONEHAM HAVE COMPARABLE LEVELS OF EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT, AND MELROSE, NORTH READING, READING, AND WAKEFIELD RESIDENTS HAVE HIGHER LEVELS OF EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT. SINCE THE COMPLETION OF THE CHNA, UNEMPLOYMENT RATES WITHIN THE CATCHMENT AREA HAVE FALLEN, CONSISTENT WITH TRENDS ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH. ESTIMATED UNEMPLOYMENT DATA FOR THE END OF FY 2014 SHOWS RATES OF UNEMPLOYMENT IN EACH COMMUNITY AT OR BELOW THE STATEWIDE SEASONALLY ADJUSTED UNEMPLOYMENT RATE OF 5.6%, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF EVERETT AT 6.0% AND SAUGUS AT 5.7% RESPECTIVELY. PUBLIC SCHOOL ENROLLMENT: DEMOGRAPHICS & SPECIAL POPULATIONS THE DEMOGRAPHICS OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOL POPULATIONS IN THE NINE HHS CB TOWNS GENERALLY MIRROR THE DEMOGRAPHICS OF THE TOWNS AS A WHOLE, WITH MELROSE, NORTH READING, READING, STONEHAM, SAUGUS AND WAKEFIELD ALL HAVING LESS THAN 20% NON-WHITE STUDENTS (COMPARED TO 33% NON-WHITE PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS IN THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS). EVERETT, MALDEN AND MEDFORD ALL HAVE LARGER NON-WHITE STUDENT POPULATIONS THAN IN THE STATE, WITH EVERETT AND MALDEN HAVING PARTICULARLY HIGH PERCENTAGES OF NON-WHITE PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS (60% AND 67% RESPECTIVELY).

SELF-REPORTED YOUTH RISK BEHAVIORS RELATED TO SUBSTANCE USE, SEXUAL ACTIVITY AND MENTAL HEALTH CONCERNS AMONGST PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS INCLUDES DATA FROM SIX COMMUNITIES: EVERETT
PART VI, LINE 5 - PROMOTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH HALLMARK HEALTH HAS A 14 MEMBER BOARD OF TRUSTEES, COMPRISED OF A MAJORITY OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS. ONLY THREE (3) OF 14 TRUSTEES ARE EMPLOYED BY HALLMARK HEALTH OR THE HOSPITAL'S PARENT, HALLMARK HEALTH CORPORATION (THESE ARE THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, THE CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, AND AN EMPLOYED PHYSICIAN LEADER). MEDICAL STAFF MEMBERSHIP AND PRIVILEGES ARE OPEN AND AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS, INCLUDING A LARGE AND DIVERSE MEDICAL STAFF OF MORE THAN 400 MEMBERS (EMPLOYED AND AFFILIATED). HALLMARK HEALTH OPERATES ACTIVE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS ON EACH OF ITS CAMPUSES. THEY ARE ACCESSIBLE TO ANYONE NEEDING CARE REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. NO PART OF THE INCOME OF HALLMARK HEALTH INURES TO THE BENEFIT OF ANY PRIVATE INDIVIDUAL NOR IS ANY PRIVATE INTEREST BEING SERVED. ALL SURPLUS FUNDS ARE REINVESTED INTO THE FACILITIES, EQUIPMENT OR PROGRAMS OF HALLMARK HEALTH TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF PATIENT CARE, ACCESS TO CARE, ADVANCE MEDICAL PRACTICE AND TO IMPROVE THE COMMUNITIES HEALTH AND WELLBEING. IN FY 2015/TY 2014, HALLMARK HEALTH FINANCIAL COUNSELORS PROVIDED 2,330 INTERACTIONS WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND COMPLETED 1,849 APPLICATIONS FOR INDIVIDUALS IN THE STATE HEALTH PROGRAMS; SUCH AS MASS HEALTH PROGRAMS, COMMONWEALTH CARE, CHILDREN'S MEDICAL SECURITY PLAN, HEALTHY START AND THE HEALTH SAFETY NET. THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE INTERACTIONS THAT DID NOT RESULT IN AN APPLICATION. HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM FINANCIAL NAVIGATORS ALSO HELPED PATIENTS TO ENROLL IN SNAP (FORMERLY FOOD STAMPS) AND OTHER SOCIAL SERVICE PROGRAMS. IN ADDITION, NAVIGATORS ATTENDED SEVERAL DOZEN COMMUNITY OUTREACH EVENTS, AND HOSTED THREE FINANCIAL ACCESS-SPECIFIC EVENTS TO SSIST PARTICIPANTS AND PROVIDE ENROLLMENT INFORMATION. OTHER SERVICES PROVIDED INCLUDE ADVOCATING FOR RESIDENTS, MAKING APPOINTMENTS, PROCURING OTHER SERVICES AND PROVIDING INFORMATION ABOUT PROGRAMS SUCH AS THE MOBILE FOOD MARKET. BILLING AND COLLECTIONS PRACTICES ARE ALSO POSTED ON THE SYSTEM WEB SITE. HALLMARK HEALTH ALSO PROVIDED MEETING SPACE IN-KIND AND SUBSIDIZED OR PROVIDED RENT AND UTILITIES IN-KIND FOR KEY COMMUNITY PARTNERS, SUCH AS PORTAL TO HOPE, WHICH PROVIDES DOMESTIC VIOLENCE PREVENTION AND SUPPORT SERVICES. MEETING SPACE IS OFFERED TO COMMUNITY AGENCIES ON A REGULAR BASIS, WHEN MISSION AND GOALS ALIGN WITH THE PRIORITIES OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, SUCH AS ALCOHOLICS/OVEREATERS ANONYMOUS GROUPS,AND MELROSE ALLIANCE AGAINST VIOLENCE. IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING A RANGE OF PROGRAMS TO ADDRESS PRIMARY AND SECONDARY HEALTH PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED IN THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT, THE HEALTH SYSTEM HAS ALSO BEGUN, AS PART OF ITS MULTI-YEAR IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, TO IDENTIFY AND IMPLEMENT EFFORTS THAT MORE PROACTIVELY ADDRESS FACTORS THAT HAVE BEEN DEMONSTRATED TO ADVERSELY IMPACT HEALTH STATUS, INCREASE HEALTH DISPARITIES, AND REDUCE OVERALL HEALTH IN VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. THESE SO CALLED SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH, SUCH AS AVAILABILITY OF FOOD, EMPLOYMENT, AND SAFE HOUSING, REFLECT THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE MEASURABLE IMPACT ON HEALTH STATUS, AND ARE BECOMING A MEANINGFUL PART OF EFFORTS TO ADDRESS PRIMARY AND SECONDARY HEALTH PRIORITIES. EXAMPLES OF THESE EFFORTS, AND THEIR IMPACT BOTH DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY ON THE HEALTH PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED IN THE CHNA AND BY OTHER COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS, INCLUDE: INTEGRATED BREASTFEEDING SERVICES AS A BABY FRIENDLY HOSPITAL, PROVIDING NEW MOTHERS WITH AN INTEGRATED APPROACH TO ENCOURAGING BREASTFEEDING SUPPORTS A NUMBER OF KEY FACTORS IN REDUCING A NUMBER OF ISSUES FOR MOTHER AND CHILD ALIKE. LACTATION SERVICES FOR POST-PARTUM MOTHERS ARE AVAILABLE BOTH AT MELROSE-WAKEFIELD HOSPITAL, AND AT THREE BABY CAFES IN MELROSE, MALDEN, AND EVERETT. ALL MATERNAL/CHILD HEALTH STAFF, CHILDBIRTH EDUCATION STAFF, AND NORTH SUBURBAN WIC NUTRITIONIST AND FAMILY SUPPORT STAFF ARE CERTIFIED IN LACTATION (CLC OR IBCLC DEPENDING ON OTHER CLINICAL TRAINING). BREASTFEEDING HAS BEEN SHOWN TO REDUCE A MOTHER'S RISK OF BREAST CANCER, AND ALSO IDENTIFIED AS AN EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACH TO REDUCE OBESITY IN CHILDREN, REDUCE RISK FOR CANCER AND OTHER CHRONIC DISEASES LATER IN LIFE. ENCOURAGING HEALTHY FOOD CONSUMPTION SEVERAL HOSPITAL DEPARTMENTS AND CLINICAL AREAS, INCLUDING DIABETES, REHAB SERVICES, NUTRITION, AND WIC, ALL SUPPORT HEALTHY EATING-REDUCING CONSUMPTION OF ADDED SUGAR, EATING AMPLE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES, AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS TARGETING THE DIETARY NEEDS AND CHALLENGES OF STUDENT ATHLETES, CANCER PATIENTS, AND OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY LIVING WITH CHRONIC DISEASES SUCH AS HYPERTENSION AND DIABETES. THE HEALTH SYSTEM WORKS WITH ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS HEALTH CARE WITHOUT HARM, AROUND ADDRESSING FOOD INSECURITY AND ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS. NUTRITION AND DIETARY STAFF SUPPORT THE CREATION OF HEALTHY MENU OPTIONS, NOT ONLY FOR HOSPITAL INPATIENTS AND IN CAFETERIAS, BUT ALSO THROUGH PROGRAMS SUCH AS MASS IN MOTION HEALTHY DINING OPTIONS OFFERED IN LOCAL RESTAURANTS, CREATED WITH ASSISTANCE OF HOSPITAL DIETICIANS AND NUTRITIONISTS. EFFORTS ALSO EXTEND TO DIRECTLY SUPPORT INCREASED ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS, INCLUDING FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES PROVIDED THROUGH A MOBILE FOOD MARKET SERVING 400-500 FAMILIES PER MONTH WITH 30 LBS. EACH OF FRESH, HEALTHY FOODS. VOUCHERS FROM WIC TO ITS PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS ARE ALSO PROVIDED TO USE AT LOCAL FARMERS' MARKETS DURING SUMMER MONTHS. WORKPLACE WELLNESS EFFORTS, IN TERMS OF INCREASING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, AS WELL AS PROMOTING WEIGHT LOSS AND HEALTHIER EATING, HAVE BEEN IMPLEMENTED DURING FY 2015/TX 2014 THROUGH THE WORK OF THE EMPLOYEE WELLNESS COMMITTEE. CORRELATING GREATER PHYSICAL HEALTH AND WELLBEING THROUGH REDUCTIONS IN OBESITY, CARDIOVASCULAR AND OTHER RELATED HEALTH PROBLEMS, SUPPORTS A WHOLE-HEALTH APPROACH TO REDUCING CHRONIC DISEASE AND THE IMPACTS OF TREATMENT BY PRESENTING OPPORTUNITIES TO IDENTIFY AND REDUCE THESE HEALTH RISKS. SUPPORTING REGIONAL TOBACCO PREVENTION AND REDUCTION EFFORTS THE HEALTH SYSTEM WORKS ACTIVELY WITH THE MYSTIC VALLEY TOBACCO AND ALCOHOL PROGRAM, AROUND REGIONAL SOLUTIONS TO TOBACCO CONTROL AND PREVENTION, INCLUDING STANDARDIZATION OF LOCAL ORDINANCES RELATED TO THE SALE OF TOBACCO, MONITORING OF REGULATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF BANS TO MINORS, AND OTHER PREDATORY PRACTICES RELATED TO THE SALE OF TOBACCO PRODUCTS. THE ADVENT OF E-CIGARETTES AS VEHICLES FOR NICOTINE AND OTHER SUBSTANCE DELIVERY HAS ALSO PROMPTED REGIONAL RESPONSES TO ADDRESS THEIR USE, ESPECIALLY IN SCHOOL AGE POPULATIONS, GIVEN THE UNKNOWN RISKS AND POTENTIAL FUTURE CAUSATION TO REGULAR TOBACCO USE. AS PART OF THE MYSTIC VALLEY PUBLIC HEALTH COALITION ,MVTAP ALSO WORKS WITH THE REGION'S MASSACHUSETTS OPIOID ABUSE PREVENTION COLLABORATIVE(MOPAC) , SERVING SIX HHS SERVICE AREA COMMUNITIES. MVTAP AND MOAPC WORK IN TANDEM, GIVEN DOCUMENTED HIGHER RATES OF ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION, TOBACCO AND TOBACCO- BASED PRODUCT USE AMONG INDIVIDUALS WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS. ALONG WITH HALLMARK HEALTH, THESE PARTNERSHIPS ALSO WORK TO ADDRESS THE CO-MORBID BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CONDITIONS IMPACTING INDIVIDUALS WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS, AS WELL AS ATTEMPTING TO MITIGATE AND REDUCE THEIR INCREASED ODDS FOR CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS, INCLUDING HEPATITIS, HIV/AIDS, DIABETES, CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE, AS WELL AS MULTIPLE ADVERSE SOCIAL DETERMINANT FACTORS. THESE ISSUES CONTINUE TO IMPACT INDIVIDUALS, EVEN WHEN THEY ARE IN ACTIVE RECOVERY. REDUCING ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS IMPACTING DISEASE HALLMARK HEALTH PROMOTES SEVERAL EFFORTS FOCUSED AROUND REDUCTION OF ITS CARBON FOOTPRINT, GREENHOUSE GAS, PARTICULATE AND OTHER EMISSIONS. THIS INCLUDES ENERGY EFFICIENCY UPGRADES IN INFRASTRUCTURE AND PHYSICAL PLANT AND THE ADDITION OF ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS AT EACH HOSPITAL CAMPUS TO ENCOURAGE USE OF ZERO-EMISSION VEHICLES IN THE COMMUNITY. GREEN TECHNOLOGY HAS THE SECONDARY BENEFIT OF REDUCING TRIGGERS FOR ASTHMA AND OTHER RESPIRATORY DISEASES, AS WELL AS RISKS FOR CERTAIN CANCERS. IMMUNIZATION AND VACCINATION, PARTICULARLY RELATED TO THE HUMAN PAPILLOMA VIRUS (HPV), CAN ALSO BE A SUBSTANTIAL PREVENTIVE FACTOR IN PROTECTING AGAINST FUTURE INFECTION AND SUBSEQUENT CERVICAL CANCER IN WOMEN AND ORAL/HEAD/NECK CANCERS IN BOTH MALES AND FEMALES. THE HOSPITAL SUPPORTS IMMUNIZATION FOR HPV, AS WELL AS THE FULL TIMELINE OF RECOMMENDED VACCINATIONS, THROUGH ITS PRIMARY CARE PRACTICES, THE SERVICES PROVIDED IN ITS WIC PROGRAM, AND WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS SUCH AS THE JOINT COMMITTEE FOR CHILDREN'S HEALTH CARE IN EVERETT. REMEMBRANCE EVENTS, INCLUDING AN ANNUAL TREE LIGHTING HONORING THOSE LOST TO CANCER IN STONEHAM, WHERE THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S CANCER CENTER IS LOCATED, HELPS FORM A CONNECTION TO THOSE LOST WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENCOURAGE SCREENING AND EDUCATION. HIGHLIGHTING RISKS AMONG FAMILY MEMBERS AND OTHER LOVED ONES OF THOSE IMPACTED BY CANCER, INCLUDING LOSS OF LIFE, CONNECTS THESE MESSAGES TO A RECEPTIVE AUDIENCE IN A WAY THAT EXTENDS THE REACH OF SCREENING AND CANCER PREVENTION MESSAGES. LASTLY, RECOGNIZING THAT DISEASE CAN BE
