SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 3J: THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) COORDINATED BY SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER AND IN CONCERT WITH KLAMATH COUNTY HEALTH REPRESENTS THE COLLABORATIVE WORK BETWEEN SKY LAKES AND ITS LOCAL PARTNERS. THE CHNA FORMALLY ASSESSES AND DOCUMENTS THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY UTILIZING A COORDINATED AND COLLABORATIVE PROCESS. IT IS THE FIRST STEP TO THE ONGOING PROCESS OF COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT. IN DESCRIBING THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY THE CHNA ALSO OUTLINES THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE GROUPS AND INDIVIDUALS WHO STRIVE TO ADDRESS THOSE NEEDS AND IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. THE GRASSROOTS COMMUNITY PARTNERS SEEKING BETTER HEALTH, A COLLABORATION INVOLVING PRIMARILY SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER, KLAMATH FALLS, ORE., AND THE HEALTH PROMOTION/DISEASE PREVENTION COORDINATOR AT KLAMATH COUNTY (ORE.) PUBLIC HEALTH EVOLVED INTO HEALTHY KLAMATH, A SEMI-FORMAL ORGANIZATION REPRESENTING A WIDE VARIETY OF PUBLIC-SECTOR AGENCIES AND DEPARTMENTS AS WELL AS PRIVATE PARTIES WITH INFLUENCE IN LOCAL HEALTH. HEALTHY KLAMATH CONTINUES AS A COOPERATIVE COMMITTED TO IMPROVING DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF HEALTH (PHYSICAL, MENTAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL) IN OUR COMMUNITY BY FOCUSING ON THE SKILLS AND ASSETS OF ITS MEMBERS.AT HEALTHY KLAMATH'S CORE IS SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER; THE LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT; A MANAGED CARE ORGANIZATION FOR THE MEDICAID POPULATION; AND A FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTHCARE PRACTICE WITH TWO FAMILY PRACTICE CLINICS IN THE COUNTY. CITY, COUNTY, AND STATE GOVERNMENTS ARE REPRESENTED ALONG WITH LOCAL SCHOOLS, HIGHER EDUCATION, AND LOCAL MEDIA.THE CHNA RECOGNIZES THERE ARE MYRIAD CAUSES FOR POOR HEALTH AND THE PROBLEM IS TOO LARGE FOR ANY ONE ORGANIZATION TO TAKE ON ALONE. THE ASSESSMENT RELIES ON SECONDARY DATA USING SURVEYS AND FOCUS GROUPS TO GATHER BOTH QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DATA.OUR SUCCESS IS MONITORED AND MEASURED BY THE MORE THAN 100 HEALTHY COMMUNITIES INSTITUTE (HCI) INDICATORS AND DISPLAYED ON A PUBLIC WEBSITE, HEALTHYKLAMATH.ORG. THE INDICATORS ARE CONTINUALLY UPDATED AS NEW DATA ARE COLLECTED. HCI MANAGES AND CONTINUALLY UPDATES A CENTRALIZED PUBLICALLY AVAILABLE WEB-BASED SOURCE OF POPULATION DATA AND COMMUNITY HEALTH INFORMATION.THE CHNA REFERENCED HERE WAS COMPILED USING SECONDARY DATA. PRIMARY DATA WAS NOT COLLECTED BECAUSE PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS EARLIER IN THE YEAR COLLECTED MEANINGFUL PRIMARY DATA THROUGH COMMUNITY SURVEYS AND FOCUS GROUPS. MANY DATA SOURCES WERE UTILIZED THROUGHOUT THIS ASSESSMENT, BUT CERTAIN KEY REPORTS WERE HEAVILY RELIED UPON BECAUSE OF THEIR RICH QUALITATIVE DATA THAT PROVIDES THE STORIES BEHIND THE NUMBERS. WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE CHNA IS A LIVING DOCUMENT, ALLOWING US TO SEEK CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT AND FURTHER ANALYZE THE DATA AND, ULTIMATELY, IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY. UNDERSTANDING THAT HEALTH IS A PRODUCT OF MANY CONDITIONS AND FACTORS, AN ADAPTED VERSION OF THE STRATEGIC PLANNING FRAMEWORK DEVELOPED BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COUNTY AND CITY HEALTH OFFICIALS (NACCHO) IN COOPERATION WITH THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC) WAS MADE TO CREATE THIS CHNA.HCI PROVIDES A PLATFORM FOR CONTINUAL MONITORING AND TRACKING ON MORE THAN 100 INDICATORS SELECTED BY THE COMMUNITY PARTNERS; THE INDICATORS ARE ROUTINELY UPDATED. THESE INDICATORS WERE ASSESSED ON FOUR FACTORS:1) COMPARISON TO OREGON AND NATIONAL BENCHMARKS,2) TRENDS OVER TIME,3) HEALTH DISPARITIES, AND4) SEVERITY OF HEALTH ISSUE.THE HEALTH INDICATORS SELECTED MET AT LEAST THREE OF THE FOUR CONDITIONS: - KLAMATH COUNTY RATE IS HIGHER THAN THE OREGON STATE AVERAGE AND/OR DOES NOT MEET THE NATIONAL HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020 BENCHMARK; - THE TREND IS WORSENING; - CERTAIN POPULATIONS ARE EXPERIENCING A DISPARITY; OR - LONG-TERM CONSEQUENCE, PREMATURE DEATH, AND/OR HIGH HEALTH-RELATED EXPENDITURES ARE ASSOCIATED.OTHER DATA SOURCES INCLUDED: - OREGON HEALTH AND SCIENCE UNIVERSITY (OHSU) NURSING STUDENTS CONDUCTED FOCUS GROUPS WITH LOCAL TEENAGERS IN THE KLAMATH COUNTY YOUTH HEALTH AND BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENT. TEENS WERE ALSO ASKED ABOUT TOBACCO USAGE AND NORMS. - THE KLAMATH LAKE COMMUNITY ACTION SERVICES (KLCAS) 2014-2015 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT REPORT IN WHICH A TOTAL OF 662 SURVEYS WERE COLLECTED FROM CLIENTS WHO WERE STRUGGLING WITH POVERTY AND AT-RISK OR CURRENTLY HOMELESS. PARTICIPANTS WERE ASKED TO SHARE THEIR VIEWS ON POVERTY, SELF-SUFFICIENCY, AND NEEDED SERVICES. - COMMUNITY PERCEPTIONS REGARDING HEALTH NEEDS ARE CAPTURED IN NON-SCIENTIFIC SURVEYS AND INTERVIEWS CONDUCTED AT THE CONCLUSION OF FREE HEALTH- AND WELLNESS-RELATED SEMINARS AND SIMILAR COMMUNITY EVENTS HOSTED BY THE MEDICAL CENTER. INFORMATION FROM THESE ACTIVITIES HELP INFORM FOLLOW-ON STRATEGIES AND PROGRAMS.WHILE THE AREA SERVED BY SKY LAKES AND ITS PARTNERS COVERS MORE THAN 10,000 SQUARE MILES IN 4 COUNTIES, 2 OF THEM IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA, THE POPULATION IS CONCENTRATED WITHIN THE KLAMATH FALLS URBAN GROWTH BOUNDARY (UGB), WHICH IS THE CENTRAL HUB OF ACTIVITIES AND SERVICES FOR SOUTH CENTRAL OREGON AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT EFFORTS ARE INITIALLY BEING IMPLEMENTED WITHIN THE UGB, AS TO HAVE THE GREATEST IMPACT ON THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF RESIDENTS.THE SERVICE AREA IS PREDOMINANTLY WHITE AND NON-HISPANIC. ABOUT 12 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION IDENTIFIES AS HISPANIC OR LATINO. THE REGION HAS AN AMERICAN INDIAN PRESENCE OF ABOUT 5 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION. THE REMAINDER IDENTIFIES AS MULTI-RACIAL, ASIAN, BLACK OR AFRICAN AMERICAN, AND NATIVE HAWAIIAN OR PACIFIC ISLANDER.AGE PLAYS A SIGNIFICANT ROLE ON THE HEALTH OF A COMMUNITY. THE LARGEST AGE GROUPS IN KLAMATH COUNTY ARE 15-24, 45-64 WITH A MEDIAN AGE OF 42. KLAMATH HAS A LARGE POPULATION OF OLDER ADULTS AS NEARLY A FOURTH ARE 60 OR OLDER.WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER OREGON COUNTIES, KLAMATH COUNTY HAS BEEN IN THE BOTTOM QUARTILE FOR BOTH HEALTH OUTCOMES AND HEALTH FACTORS FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS IN THE ANNUAL ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON FOUNDATION COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS. THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL'S (CDC) COMMUNITY HEALTH STATUS INDICATORS RANKING TOOL, WHICH MATCHES COUNTIES WITH COMPARABLE "PEER" COUNTIES ACROSS THE NATION, SHOWS KLAMATH COUNTY FALLS WITHIN THE SECOND AND THIRD QUARTILES FOR MOST INDICATORS. IN THE GALLUP RELATIVE WELL BEING INDEX (WBI) SCORES, WHICH MEASURES FIVE ELEMENTS (PURPOSE, SOCIAL, FINANCIAL, COMMUNITY, AND PHYSICAL) AND CLASSIFIES SCORES AS THRIVING, STRUGGLING, AND SUFFERING, KLAMATH FALLS RANKED IN THE THIRD QUINTILE WHEN COMPARED TO ALL U.S. COUNTIES; ITS STRONGEST ELEMENTS WERE PURPOSE, SOCIAL AND PHYSICAL. COMMUNITY AND FINANCIAL WELL-BEING RANKINGS ARE BOTH LOWER THAN OREGON AND THE U.S. WITH THRIVING-TO-STRUGGLING RATIOS OF 1:1 VERSUS THE GOAL OF 5:1. ACROSS ALL 3 RANKING SYSTEMS, KLAMATH RANKS HIGH IN THE SOCIAL CATEGORIES, DEMONSTRATING RESILIENCE AND SOCIAL SUPPORT, BUT LOW ON PHYSICAL AND FINANCIAL HEALTH. KLAMATH COUNTY'S RATES OF COPD, ARTHRITIS, AND DIABETES ARE HIGHER THAN STATE AVERAGES (APPROXIMATELY 6, 27, AND 9 % RESPECTIVELY). PREVALENCE OF ASTHMA, HEART ATTACK, AND STROKE ARE SIMILAR TO STATE AVERAGES (9, 3, AND 3 % RESPECTIVELY). THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE LIVING WITH MULTIPLE CHRONIC CONDITIONS CONTINUES TO RISE, AND IN KLAMATH COUNTY HALF ADULTS HAS ONE OR MORE CHRONIC CONDITIONS.CANCER INCIDENCE IN KLAMATH COUNTY IS 438 PER 100,000 PEOPLE, MAKING IT AMONG THE TOP 5 CHRONIC DISEASES IN THE REGION. THE CHNA REVEALS THE AGE-ADJUSTED DEATH RATE PER 100,000 DUE TO LUNG CANCER IS 49.5, BREAST CANCER IS 23.2, COLORECTAL CANCER IS 19.3, AND PROSTATE CANCER IS 18.8. PREVALENCE OF PREVENTIVE SCREENINGS IS 58% FOR COLONOSCOPIES 75% FOR MAMMOGRAMS, AND 83% FOR PAP SMEARS.OBESITY CONTRIBUTES TO NUMEROUS CHRONIC CONDITIONS INCLUDING HEART DISEASE, STROKE, DIABETES, DEPRESSION, AND CHRONIC PAIN. IN KLAMATH COUNTY, 60% OF ADULTS ARE OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE.THE PRIMARY GOAL OF THE CHNA IS TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY AND TO DEVELOP LOCAL STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS OUR COMMUNITY'S SPECIFIC NEEDS AND IDENTIFIED PRIORITY ISSUES. THE CHNA HELPS SET COMMUNITY PRIORITIES, ESTABLISH BENCHMARKS AND MONITOR TRENDS IN THE HEALTH STATUS OF OUR RESIDENTS. THE CHNA WAS INFLUENCED BY INPUT FROM COMMUNITY PARTNERS AND STAKEHOLDERS AS WELL AS INDIVIDUALS IN KLAMATH COUNTY COMMUNITIES. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT IS ESSENTIAL TO SUCCESSFUL PUBLIC HEALTH ACTION, AND THE PRIORITY AREAS FOR HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SHOULD REFLECT THE PROBLEMS OF GREATEST CONCERN TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITIES. HEALTHY KLAMATH PARTNERS REGULARLY SEEK COMMUNITY INPUT VIA LISTENING SESSIONS, FOCUS GROUPS, AND SURVEYS.
SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: THE CHNA REFERENCED HERE WAS COMPILED USING SECONDARY DATA. PRIMARY DATA WAS NOT COLLECTED BECAUSE PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS EARLIER IN THE YEAR COLLECTED MEANINGFUL PRIMARY DATA THROUGH COMMUNITY SURVEYS AND FOCUS GROUPS. MANY DATA SOURCES WERE UTILIZED THROUGHOUT THIS ASSESSMENT, BUT CERTAIN KEY REPORTS WERE HEAVILY RELIED UPON BECAUSE OF THEIR RICH QUALITATIVE DATA THAT PROVIDES THE STORIES BEHIND THE NUMBERS. WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE CHNA IS A LIVING DOCUMENT, ALLOWING US TO SEEK CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT AND FURTHER ANALYZE THE DATA AND, ULTIMATELY, IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY. UNDERSTANDING THAT HEALTH IS A PRODUCT OF MANY CONDITIONS AND FACTORS, AN ADAPTED VERSION OF THE STRATEGIC PLANNING FRAMEWORK DEVELOPED BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COUNTY AND CITY HEALTH OFFICIALS (NACCHO) IN COOPERATION WITH THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC) WAS MADE TO CREATE THIS CHNA.HCI PROVIDES A PLATFORM FOR CONTINUAL MONITORING AND TRACKING ON MORE THAN 100 INDICATORS SELECTED BY THE COMMUNITY PARTNERS; THE INDICATORS ARE ROUTINELY UPDATED. THESE INDICATORS WERE ASSESSED ON FOUR FACTORS:1) COMPARISON TO OREGON AND NATIONAL BENCHMARKS,2) TRENDS OVER TIME,3) HEALTH DISPARITIES, AND4) SEVERITY OF HEALTH ISSUE.THE HEALTH INDICATORS SELECTED MET AT LEAST THREE OF THE FOUR CONDITIONS: - KLAMATH COUNTY RATE IS HIGHER THAN THE OREGON STATE AVERAGE AND/OR DOES NOT MEET THE NATIONAL HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020 BENCHMARK; - THE TREND IS WORSENING; - CERTAIN POPULATIONS ARE EXPERIENCING A DISPARITY; OR - LONG-TERM CONSEQUENCE, PREMATURE DEATH, AND/OR HIGH HEALTH-RELATED EXPENDITURES ARE ASSOCIATED.OTHER DATA SOURCES INCLUDED: - OREGON HEALTH AND SCIENCE UNIVERSITY (OHSU) NURSING STUDENTS CONDUCTED FOCUS GROUPS WITH LOCAL TEENAGERS IN THE KLAMATH COUNTY YOUTH HEALTH AND BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENT.

SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7D: PRINTED COPIES AT THE HOSPITAL, KLAMATH COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT, KLAMATH COUNTY LIBRARY'S MAIN BRANCH, AND UPON REQUEST.
SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: KLAMATH COUNTY'S RATES OF COPD, ARTHRITIS, AND DIABETES ARE HIGHER THAN STATE AVERAGES (APPROXIMATELY 6, 27, AND 9 PERCENT RESPECTIVELY). PREVALENCE OF ASTHMA, HEART ATTACK, AND STROKE ARE SIMILAR TO STATE AVERAGES (9%, 3%, AND 3% RESPECTIVELY).THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE LIVING WITH MULTIPLE CHRONIC CONDITIONS CONTINUES TO RISE, AND ABOUT HALF THE ADULTS IN KLAMATH COUNTY HAVE ONE OR MORE CHRONIC CONDITIONS. A STRONG PARTNERSHIP INCLUDING HEALTH, SENIOR, AND HUMAN SERVICES AGENCIES IS WORKING TO MEET THE NEEDS OF INDIVIDUALS LIVING WITH CHRONIC CONDITIONS USING STANFORD UNIVERSITY'S LIVING WELL WITH CHRONIC CONDITIONS PROGRAM. THIS EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAM TEACHES INDIVIDUALS HOW TO MANAGE THEIR CHRONIC CONDITIONS AND IMPROVE THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE.CANCER SCREENING AND TREATMENT HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS SIGNIFICANT NEEDS. CANCER INCIDENCE IN KLAMATH COUNTY IS 438 PER 100,000 PEOPLE. THE AGE ADJUSTED DEATH RATE PER 100,000 DUE TO LUNG CANCER IS 49.5, BREAST CANCER IS 23.2, COLORECTAL CANCER IS 19.3, AND PROSTATE CANCER IS 18.8. SKY LAKES ROUTINELY COMMUNICATES IN MULTIMEDIA CHANNELS THAT IT IS IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY THOSE AGES 40 AND OLDER, TO BE SCREENED FOR CANCER AS A PREVENTIVE MEASURE. PREVALENCE OF PREVENTIVE SCREENINGS IS 58% FOR COLONOSCOPIES 75% FOR MAMMOGRAMS, AND 83% FOR PAP SMEARS.SKY LAKES CANCER TREATMENT CENTER ACTIVELY PROMOTES SKIN CANCER PREVENTION AT AREA HEALTH FAIRS, AND ADVOCATES FOR COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING IN MASS MEDIA AND HEALTH FAIRS. THE SKY LAKES CANCER TREATMENT CENTER ALSO ORGANIZES AND PROMOTES FREE MONTHLY EDUCATION AND SUPPORT GROUPS FOR BREAST CANCER AND PROSTATE CANCER.FURTHER, SKY LAKES PROVIDES TRAINED PRESENTERS TO TEACH THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY'S FREEDOM FROM SMOKING CURRICULA, AND ADVERTISES CLASSES AND ENCOURAGES PROVIDERS TO SCHEDULE THEIR PATIENTS TO THE CLASSES.OBESITY AND ITS COLLATERAL EFFECTS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS SIGNIFICANT CONCERNS IN THE REGION. THE WEIGHT OF THE NATION IS A GROWING CONCERN BECAUSE OF THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTH RISKS OBESITY POSES ON THE POPULATION. OBESITY CONTRIBUTES TO NUMEROUS CHRONIC CONDITIONS INCLUDING HEART DISEASE, STROKE, DIABETES, DEPRESSION, AND CHRONIC PAIN. IN KLAMATH COUNTY, 60% OF ADULTS AND A GROWING NUMBER OF CHILDREN ARE OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE, WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH THE REST OF THE NATION.SKY LAKES IS ADDRESSING OBESITY HEAD ON WITH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE WELLNESS CENTER, WHICH OFFERS NUTRITION, EXERCISE, AND STRESS MANAGEMENT COACHING. ALSO PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS, OFTEN IN COOPERATION WITH SKY LAKES DEPARTMENTS, ARE IMPLEMENTING INTERVENTIONS TO PREVENT OBESITY BY OFFERING WALKING GROUPS, AFTER-SCHOOL ACTIVITIES, NUTRITION EDUCATION, AND RECREATION; SKY LAKES IS AN ACTIVE PARTNER IN MANY OF THE ACTIVITIES.WORK BY SKY LAKES STAFF IS AIMED AT IMPROVING THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT TO ENCOURAGE WALKING, PROMOTING SELF-AWARENESS ABOUT HEALTHFUL LIFESTYLES, AND CHANGING POLICIES - AT WORKPLACES, IN BUSINESS, AND AT GOVERNMENT LEVELS.RELATED TO OBESITY IS DIABETES. SKY LAKES HOSTS AN ANNUAL HEALTH FAIR DEDICATED TO DIABETES EDUCATION AND PREVENTION. IT IS ORGANIZED BY THE DIABETES SERVICES DEPARTMENT AND THE NUTRITION SERVICES DEPARTMENT AND INCLUDES COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND INTERVENTIONS. THE DIABETES SERVICES DEPARTMENT CONTINUES ITS OUTREACH WITH MONTHLY SUPPORT GROUPS THAT ARE WIDELY PROMOTED BY THE DEPARTMENT AND OTHER COMMUNITY AGENCIES.SKY LAKES INCLUDES OBESITY- AND DIABETES-RELATED STORIES AS WELL AS CANCER-PREVENTION STRATEGIES IN ITS QUARTERLY LIVE SMART MAGAZINE DISTRIBUTED TO 16,000 HOUSEHOLDS IN THE CATCHMENT AREA.MENTAL HEALTH IS A GROWING CONCERN IDENTIFIED IN THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THERE IS A HIGH PREVALENCE OF MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS AND AN UNFORTUNATE LACK OF MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS IN KLAMATH COUNTY.SKY LAKES STAFF TAKE AN ACTIVE ROLE IN COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE DISORDER PREVENTION AND TREATMENT ACTIVITIES, AND WORKS WITH KLAMATH BASIN BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, WHICH HAS ASSUMED THE ROLE PREVIOUSLY HELD BY KLAMATH COUNTY MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES. SKY LAKES WAS PIVOTAL IN CREATING THE KLAMATH WORKS HUMAN SERVICES CAMPUS, WHERE KEY SOCIAL SERVICES AGENCIES CAN HELP THEIR CLIENTS. THE CAMPUS WILL BECOME HOME FOR A NEW SOBERING CENTER THAT WILL ALSO OFFER ALCOHOL- AND SUBSTANCE-ABUSE REHABILITATION THERAPY SERVICES.LOW RATES OF BREASTFEEDING IS IDENTIFIED AS A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN. IN KLAMATH COUNTY, 88% OF NEW MOTHERS INITIATE BREASTFEEDING BEFORE LEAVING THE HOSPITAL. SKY LAKES OFFERS ONE-ON-ONE CONSULTATION WITH LACTATION SPECIALISTS IN AN EFFORT TO ENCOURAGE CONTINUED BREASTFEEDING INTO THE FIRST SIX TO 12 MONTHS OF LIFE. SKY LAKES ALSO SUPPORTS BREASTFEEDING MOMS IN A VARIETY OF WAYS, ALL AT NO CHARGE.THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT ALSO IDENTIFIED AREAS OF CONCERN SUCH AS LOW BIRTH WEIGHT, PRENATAL CARE, AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AS A RESULT OF MULTIPLE RISK FACTORS INCLUDING TOBACCO AND ALCOHOL USE, AND ORAL HYGIENE. SKY LAKES SUPPORTS COMMUNITY AGENCIES RESEARCHING TO FURTHER UNDERSTAND THE SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL RISK FACTORS AND TRENDS.WHEN IT COMES TO HEALTH, ZIP CODE MAY BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN GENETIC CODE - PLACE MATTERS IN TERMS OF SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH. THESE INCLUDE FACTORS THAT AFFECT HEALTH BEYOND THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE, WHERE WE LIVE, LEARN, WORK, AND PLAY. EATING WELL, EXERCISING, AND OTHER POSITIVE HEALTH BEHAVIORS ARE IMPORTANT, BUT HEALTH IS ALSO STRONGLY INFLUENCED BY SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CIRCUMSTANCES. THINGS LIKE PUBLIC SAFETY, ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOOD OPTIONS, CLEAN AND SAFE HOUSING, ACCESS TO EDUCATIONAL AND EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES, INCOME, TRANSPORTATION, AND SOCIAL SUPPORT CAN EXPLAIN WHY SOME PEOPLE ARE HEALTHIER THAN OTHERS DESPITE THEIR HEALTH BEHAVIORS, AND ARE CLEARLY BEYOND THE PURVIEW OF THE MEDICAL CENTER.NOT EVERYONE HAS THE CHANCE TO ACHIEVE OPTIMAL HEALTH DUE TO SOCIAL POSITION OR CIRCUMSTANCE. HEALTH INEQUITIES ARE DEMONSTRATED BY MARKED DIFFERENCES IN QUALITY OF LIFE, DISEASE RATES, AND ACCESS TO RESOURCES. RACIAL AND ETHNIC MINORITIES, SEXUAL MINORITIES, PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES, AND OTHER VULNERABLE GROUPS MORE OFTEN FACE UNNECESSARY BARRIERS TO ACHIEVING OPTIMAL HEALTH. THESE ARE AREAS IN WHICH SKY LAKES SUPPORTS PUBLIC AND PRIVATE AGENCIES AND GOVERNMENT AS THEY SEEK SOLUTIONS, BUT CANNOT BE EXPECTED TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS. OTHER SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH INCLUDE UNEMPLOYMENT, HOMELESSNESS, CRIME AND SAFETY. SKY LAKES IS INSTRUMENTAL IN THE FORMATION OF THE INNOVATIVE KLAMATH WORKS HUMAN SERVICES CAMPUS WHICH WILL EVENTUALLY CO-LOCATE TO A SINGLE SITE THE SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES REQUIRED TO HELP ADDRESS MANY OF THOSE ISSUES. ALSO, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, A MODIFIABLE HEALTH RISK, WILL BE ADDRESSED BY A SOBERING CENTER ON THE CAMPUS. SKY LAKES HAS COMMITTED $200,000 TO ITS CONSTRUCTION AND PLEDGED TO COVER A SUBSTANTIAL PART OF ITS ANNUAL OPERATION TO ENSURE PROPER PATIENT CARE AND REHABILITATION TREATMENT.THE CHNA NOTES THAT, WHEN THERE ARE SAFE, ACCESSIBLE AREAS (GREEN SPACES, PARKS, SAFE ROUTES, AND THRIVING BUSINESSES) NEARBY, IT'S EASIER TO BE PHYSICALLY ACTIVE AND WALK TO THESE PLACES, FEEL SAFE, AND MEET WITH SOCIAL GROUPS - ALL WHICH IMPROVE HEALTH. SKY LAKES HAS CONTRIBUTED FINANCIAL AND HUMAN RESOURCES TO HELP CREATE GREEN SPACES IN KLAMATH FALLS, TO HELP REHABILITATE A MAJOR NEIGHBORHOOD PARK NEAR THE MEDICAL CENTER, AND TO HELP CREATE HIKING AND BIKING TRAILS IN AND AROUND THE CITY.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
PART I, LINE 7:	A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WAS USED FOR THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND COMMUNITY BENEFITS TABLE. THE RATIO WAS DERIVED USING WORKSHEET 2, 'RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST-TO-CHARGES.'
PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F):	THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $ 12,717,526.
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES:	COMMUNITY SUPPORT: ACTIVITIES INCLUDE KLAMATH-LAKE CHILD ABUSE RESPONSE AND EVALUATION SERVICES (CARES). CARES IS DEDICATED TO PROVIDING SAFE, COMPREHENSIVE, OBJECTIVE MEDICAL ASSESSMENTS, AND TO RAISING AWARENESS ABOUT CHILD ABUSE THROUGH COORDINATED, COLLABORATIVE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS. FOUR TIMES PER YEAR, DISCOUNTED AND FREE PRESCRIPTION DRUGS, ALONG WITH EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT BY LICENSED PHARMACISTS, ARE PROVIDED TO LOW INCOME ELDERLY THROUGH LOCAL SENIOR CENTERS. THE NO ONE DIES ALONE PROGRAM IS A VOLUNTEER PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES THE REASSURING PRESENCE OF A VOLUNTEER COMPANION TO DYING PATIENTS WHO WOULD OTHERWISE BE ALONE. SKY LAKES ALSO PARTICIPATES IN RELAY FOR LIFE, UNITED WAY AND OTHER LOCAL FUNDRAISING AND AWARENESS INITIATIVES, AS WELL AS ONGOING EFFORTS IN THE PERIOD OF PURPLE CRYING COMMUNITY EDUCATION CAMPAIGN. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF OTHER COMMUNITY SUPPORT ACTIVITIES THAT ARE PROVIDED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SPONSORSHIP OF SUPPORT GROUPS FOR CANCER, ADOPTING FAMILIES AT CHRISTMAS, TRANSPORTATION ASSISTANCE TO INDIGENT PATIENTS, STAFF VOLUNTEER PARTICIPATION IN COMMUNITY EVENTS, AND FREE ACCESS TO MEETING ROOMS.LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS: SKY LAKES AND SKY LAKES EMPLOYEES WORK IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE KLAMATH COUNTY HIGH SCHOOLS AND OREGON INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY TO DEVELOP AN AWARENESS OF HEALTH CARE, HEALTH CARE CAREERS, AND SUPPORT FOR HEALTH PROFESSIONS EDUCATION SUPPORT AND TRAINING. SENIORS IN THE OREGON HEALTH & SCIENCE UNIVERSITY NURSING PROGRAM IN KLAMATH FALLS CONDUCT QUALITATIVE SURVEILLANCE OF THE PERCEIVED HEALTH STATUS OF PEOPLE IN NEARBY COMMUNITIES AND REPORT ON BARRIERS TO ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE IDENTIFIED BY THOSE COMMUNITIES. THE STUDENTS USE TOOLS INCLUDING ONE-ON-ONE INTERVIEWS, FOCUS GROUPS, PUBLIC MEETINGS, AND PHONE SURVEYS. THEIR DATA ARE SHARED WITH COMMUNITY LEADERS AND COMPARED WITH OTHER DATA TO DEVELOP COMPREHENSIVE IMPROVEMENT STRATEGIES.COALITION BUILDING: THE LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE OREGON HEALTH DEPARTMENT, PERIODICALLY PERFORMS HEALTH ASSESSMENTS OF THE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY SKY LAKES. THE MEDICAL CENTER WORKS WITH LOCAL HEALTH AUTHORITIES TO DETERMINE THE HEALTH INITIATIVES THAT CAN BE JOINTLY ADDRESSED BY COMMUNITY LEADERS, WITH SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER SERVING A SIGNIFICANT LEADERSHIP ROLE. SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER ACTIVELY PARTNERS WITH AGENCIES SUCH AS THE KLAMATH COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT, OREGON HEALTH & SCIENCE UNIVERSITY, AND THE UNITED WAY OF THE KLAMATH BASIN IN HEALTH-IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES. EMPLOYEES VOLUNTEER THEIR TIME FOR LEADERSHIP KLAMATH, KLAMATH HOSPICE AND MANY OTHER COMMUNITY SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS WHERE LEADERS COME TOGETHER.COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ADVOCACY: SKY LAKES ALSO SUPPORTS COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ADVOCACY VIA THE SOUTHERN OREGON METH PROJECT. SOMP IS MADE UP OF COMMUNITY BUSINESSES THAT HOPE TO HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE 75% OF CHILDREN IN FOSTER CARE THAT ARE THERE BECAUSE OF METH AND ON THE 8 OUT OF 10 ARRESTS BEING RELATED TO METH. OVERWHELMED COURTS AND JAILS IN OUR COMMUNITY HELP DRIVE THE SOMP PARTNERS TO COME TOGETHER TO STOP THE NEXT GENERATION FROM WORSENING THE PROBLEM. OTHER HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ADVOCACY TAKES PLACE VIA AN ANNUAL HEALTH FAIR AND ONGOING EDUCATIONAL OFFERINGS FOR HEART DISEASE, CHOLESTEROL SCREENING, WEIGHT MANAGEMENT, NUTRITION, DUII, EATING ON A BUDGET, BREASTFEEDING, SMOKING CESSATION, CAR SEAT SAFETY, AIDS/HIV, AND DIABETES. IN ADDITION TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS, EDUCATIONAL OFFERINGS INCLUDE NURSING STUDENTS, ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE, HIGH SCHOOLS AND LOCAL COLLEGES. EMPLOYEE SUPPORT - TIME AND MONETARY DONATIONS - OF LOCAL FOOD BANKS IS ALSO ENCOURAGED.WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT: SKY LAKES UNDERWRITES THE WAGES AND BENEFITS OF SELECTED NEW GRADUATES FROM THE LOCAL BACCALAUREATE NURSING PROGRAM. THESE NURSES SPEND 6 MONTHS ORIENTING TO VARIOUS INPATIENT UNITS BY SHADOWING EXPERIENCED REGISTERED NURSES IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THE BEST EMPLOYMENT "FIT" FOR THEM AND FOR SKY LAKES.
PART III, LINE 4:	BAD DEBTS ARE ACCRUED MONTHLY AT A FIXED PERCENTAGE OF GROSS CHARGES. BOOKED BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS ROUTINELY COMPARED TO ACTUAL BAD DEBT WRITEOFFS, WHICH INCLUDE PAYMENTS TO PREVIOUSLY RECORDED BAD DEBTS, AND THE ACCRUAL PERCENTAGE IS ADJUSTED ACCORDINGLY. THIS PROCESS HAS THE INTENDED EFFECT OF REALIZING BAD DEBT EACH MONTH AS A LESS VOLATILE EXPENSE.BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDES PAYMENTS - PATIENT AND INSURANCE - TO PREVIOUSLY RECORDED BAD DEBTS.SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER OFFERS A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION TO ALL PATIENTS, EITHER IN PERSON OR MAKING IT AVAILABLE VIA US MAIL OR ON THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE. A SAMPLE OF PROCESSED CHARITY CARE APPLICATIONS WAS TAKEN. WE FOUND THAT 15% OF CHARITY CARE APPLICATIONS WERE TURNED TO BAD DEBT DUE TO LACK OF INFORMATION SUPPLIED BY THE HOUSEHOLD. WE ASSUME THAT ALL REMAINING BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS WERE CORRECTLY CLASSIFIED DURING OUR COLLECTION PROCESS. THIS 15% REPRESENTS $1.9 MILLION.THE FOOTNOTE THAT DISCUSSES BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS CONTAINED ON PAGE 11 OF THE ATTACHED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, ENTITLED 'PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE.'
PART III, LINE 8:	MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENTS DO NOT COVER THE COSTS OF DELIVERING CARE TO THE COMMUNITY. IN ADDITION, SKY LAKES IS A TEACHING HOSPITAL THAT PROVIDES ACCESS TO PRIMARY CARE IN A RURAL COMMUNITY THAT HAS A PHYSICIAN SHORTAGE.SERVICES PROVIDED AND PAID ON THE MEDICARE FEE SCHEDULE (E.G. OUTPATIENT LAB TESTS, OUTPATIENT THERAPY SERVICES, OR PROVIDER BASED PHYSICIAN SERVICES) ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE MEDICARE AMOUNTS INCLUDED IN PART III, SECTION B.SKY LAKES DOES NOT UTILIZE A COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. VENDORS AND SURVEYING AGENCIES (GOVERNMENTAL AND NON-GOVERNMENTAL) ARE PROVIDED WITH THE MEDICARE COST REPORT COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WHEN THEY REQUEST IT.COSTS OF ROUTINE AND ICU NURSING SERVICES ARE CALCULATED ON A PER DIEM. ANCILLARY SERVICE COSTS ARE CALCULATED BASED ON TOTAL COSTS INCLUDING OVERHEAD TO TOTAL CHARGES BY ANCILLARY SERVICE TO DEVELOP A RATIO OF COSTS-TO-CHARGES (RCC), WITH MEDICARE'S APPORTIONMENT CALCULATED BY TAKING MEDICARE CHARGES MULTIPLIED BY THE RCC DEVELOPED ON THE COST REPORT.
PART III, LINE 9B:	SKY LAKES PLACES ALL ACCOUNTS IDENTIFIED AS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ON HOLD AND THEN MAKES ANY NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS BEFORE STATEMENTS ARE SENT. MANY OF THESE ACCOUNTS ARE ADJUSTED OFF COMPLETELY AND NO STATEMENTS ARE SENT. SKY LAKES ALSO CALLS PAST DUE ACCOUNTS (THIRD STATEMENT) AND REVIEWS TO SEE IF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE. LARGER ACCOUNTS ARE REVIEWED BY FINANCIAL COUNSELORS AND CHAMBERLIN EDMONDS FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY OR MEDICAID ELIGIBILITY. BOTH GROUPS MAKE PROACTIVE CALLS AND FOLLOW UP WITH PATIENTS TO GET THE NECESSARY INFORMATION TURNED IN.
PART VI, LINE 2:	IN ADDITION TO THE CHNA, SKY LAKES ASSESSES THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY IT SERVES BY MONITORING THE HEALTHY COMMUNITIES INSTITUTE (HCI) INDICATORS TRACKED AND DISPLAYED AT HEALTHYKLAMATH.ORG. THAT WEBSITE IS THE COMMUNICATIONS TOOL OF THE LOCAL COMMUNITY COLLABORATIVE AIMED AT IMPROVING THE LIVABILITY OF THE REGION. THERE ARE MORE THAN 100 INDICATORS THAT MONITOR ACCESS QUESTIONS, RATES OF DISEASES INCLUDING CANCER AND DIABETES IN THE POPULATION, AS WELL AS MATERNAL AND INFANT HEALTH, MENTAL HEALTH, AND INDIRECT INFLUENCES OF HEALTH SUCH AS SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND STRESS. SKY LAKES ALSO ASKS ADULTS TO SELF-REPORT THEIR HEALTH CONDITIONS VIA ANONYMOUS AND RANDOMIZED SURVEYS MAILED TO PATIENTS RECENTLY DISCHARGED FROM THE MEDICAL CENTER AS INPATIENTS AND AS EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENTS, AND THOSE WHO HAVE USED SKY LAKES FACILITIES FOR OUTPATIENT TESTING AND TREATMENTS.FURTHER, SKY LAKES USES SECONDARY DATA SUCH AS THE KLAMATH-LAKE COMMUNITY ACTION SERVICES (KLCAS) ASSESSMENT IDENTIFYING WAYS TO ASSIST INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE TRYING TO CLIMB OUT OF POVERTY. THE MEDICAL CENTER ALSO USES THE ANNUAL COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS DATA, A ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON FOUNDATION PROGRAM, TO MONITOR INDICATORS FOR HEALTH OUTCOMES, HEALTH BEHAVIORS, AND CLINICAL CARE.SKY LAKES ALSO USES FORMAL CONVERSATIONS WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS AND MEDICAL COLLABORATORS, AND ACTIVELY PARTNERS WITH AGENCIES IN HEALTH-IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES. THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE OREGON HEALTH AUTHORITY, PERIODICALLY PERFORMS HEALTH ASSESSMENTS OF THE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY SKY LAKES. THE MEDICAL CENTER WORKS WITH LOCAL HEALTH AUTHORITIES TO DETERMINE THE HEALTH INITIATIVES THAT CAN BE JOINTLY ADDRESSED BY COMMUNITY LEADERS, WITH SKY LAKES SERVING A SIGNIFICANT LEADERSHIP ROLE. COMMUNITY MEMBERS' PERCEPTIONS REGARDING HEALTH NEEDS ARE CAPTURED IN NON-SCIENTIFIC SURVEYS CONDUCTED AT THE CONCLUSION OF FREE HEALTH- AND WELLNESS-RELATED SEMINARS AND SIMILAR COMMUNITY EVENTS HOSTED BY THE MEDICAL CENTER.
PART VI, LINE 3:	SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND APPLICATION FOR ASSISTANCE IS LOCATED ON THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE, IS REFERENCED IN THE ONLINE BILL-MANAGEMENT SECTION OF THE SITE, AND IS FEATURED IN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S ANNUAL REPORT AND IN THE ANNUAL LIVE HEALTHY MAGAZINE PUBLISHED BY THE HERALD AND NEWS NEWSPAPER AND SKY LAKES. THE ANNUAL REPORT IS DISTRIBUTED TO SELECTED INDIVIDUALS IN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S SERVICE AREA, AND IS PUBLISHED ON THE SKY LAKES WEBSITE. THE LIVE HEALTHY MAGAZINE IS DISTRIBUTED TO ROUGHLY 17,000 HOUSEHOLDS IN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S CATCHMENT AREA USING THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER'S DISTRIBUTION NETWORK.THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND ASSISTANCE APPLICATION IS ALSO PROVIDED WHEN PATIENTS REGISTER FOR SERVICES, AT PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICE WHEN THEY PAY THEIR BILLS IN PERSON OR WHEN PATIENTS INQUIRE ABOUT THEIR BILLS OR ASSISTANCE, AND A REMINDER WITH THE WEBSITE URL IS ON THE BACK OF PATIENT BILLS.IN ADDITION, UNINSURED PATIENTS ARE PROVIDED PATIENT ADVOCACY BASED ELIGIBILITY AND ENROLLMENT SERVICES FOR MEDICAID AND OTHER BENEFIT PROGRAMS. THE MEDICAL CENTER ENSURES INFORMATION ABOUT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND APPLICATIONS FOR ASSISTANCE IS AT ALL PATIENT REGISTRATION AREAS AND OUR SPECIALLY TRAINED FINANCIAL COUNSELORS HELP APPLICANTS COMPLETE THE FORM. ADDITIONALLY, FINANCIAL COUNSELORS TELEPHONE UNINSURED PATIENTS WITH LARGE BALANCES TO PROACTIVELY OFFER ASSISTANCE. OUR ABILITY TO OFFER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS CLEARLY LISTED ON EVERY STATEMENT AND ON MOST FORM LETTERS WE MAIL. IT ALSO IS COVERED DURING COURTESY PHONE CALLS IF THERE IS MENTION OF DIFFICULTY IN PAYING. IN ADDITION, SKY LAKES PROVIDES INFORMATION ABOUT FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS. WE HAVE ENGAGED THE SERVICES OF CHAMBERLIN EDMONDS, A COMPANY THAT SPEAKS WITH ALL UNINSURED INPATIENTS WHO MEET CLEARLY DEFINED CRITERIA. CHAMBERLIN EDMONDS STAFF ALSO REVIEW ALL QUALIFYING OUTPATIENT ACCOUNTS AND CONTACT PATIENTS TO DISCUSS THEIR ELIGIBILITY. THOSE STAFF FURTHER ASSIST PATIENTS IN COMPLETING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATIONS IF THEY ARE UNSUCCESSFUL GETTING ON A GOVERNMENT PROGRAM. BESIDES THE MAIN MEDICAL CENTER, THE SKY LAKES CANCER TREATMENT CENTER ALSO HAS FINANCIAL COUNSELORS WHO ASSIST WITH PHARMACEUTICAL CO-PAY RELIEF THROUGH THE DRUG MANUFACTURERS, RELIEVING PATIENTS OF SOME OF THAT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION. THE MEDICAL CENTER, THROUGH A THIRD-PARTY RELATIONSHIP, ROUTINELY PROVIDES NO-CHARGE MEDICATIONS TO INDIGENT PATIENTS THROUGH MAJOR PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11	FORM 990 IS REVIEWED BY THE CONTROLLER, CFO, CEO AND OTHER STAFF BEFORE FILING.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C	IT IS THE DUTY OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER TO SAFEGUARD THE TAX EXEMPT STATUS OF SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER, AND AS SUCH THE BOARD WILL TAKE SERIOUSLY ANY CONFLICT OF INTEREST ON THE PART OF ANY BOARD MEMBER OR POTENTIAL BOARD MEMBER. ALL BOARD MEMBERS AND POTENTIAL MEMBERS MUST DISCLOSE THE EXISTENCE OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST. AN UPDATED STATEMENT OF SUCH POTENTIAL CONFLICTS SHALL BE SUBMITTED YEARLY BY ALL BOARD MEMBERS FOR REVIEW AT THE BOARD'S ANNUAL MEETING. AFTER DISCLOSURE OF THE POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST AND AFTER ANY DISCUSSION WITH THE INTERESTED PARTY, HE/SHE SHALL LEAVE THE BOARD OR COMMITTEE MEETING WHILE THE DETERMINATION OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST IS DISCUSSED AND VOTED UPON. THE REMAINING BOARD MEMBERS SHALL DECIDE IF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTS. THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD AND ALL COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD SHALL CONTAIN 1) THE NAMES OF THE PERSONS WHO DISCLOSED OR OTHERWISE WERE FOUND TO HAVE A FINANCIAL INTEREST IN CONNECTION WITH AN ACTUAL OR POSSIBLE CONFLICT OF INTEREST; 2) THE NATURE OF THE FINANCIAL INTEREST; 3) THE NAMES OF THE PERSONS WHO WERE PRESENT FOR THE DISCUSSIONS AND VOTES RELATING TO THE TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT; 4) THE CONTENT OF THE DISCUSSION INCLUDING ANY ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT; 5) ANY ACTION TAKEN TO DETERMINE WHETHER A CONFLICT OF INTEREST WAS PRESENT; AND, 6) THE BOARD OR COMMITTEE'S DECISION AS TO WHETHER A CONFLICT OF INTEREST IN FACT EXISTED. IF AN EMPLOYEE OR MEMBER OF THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY HAS A FINANCIAL INTEREST IN A FIRM WHICH DOES BUSINESS WITH SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER ("SKY LAKES"), AND THE INTEREST IS POTENTIALLY SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO AFFECT THE EMPLOYEE'S WORK DECISIONS OR ACTIONS, BY POLICY THE EMPLOYEE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO REPRESENT SKY LAKES IN TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE FIRM. EMPLOYEES ARE SIMILARLY PROHIBITED FROM ACCEPTING GIFTS FROM ANY PERSON OR FIRM DOING OR SEEKING TO DO BUSINESS WITH SKY LAKES UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES IN WHICH IT MIGHT REASONABLY BE INFERRED THAT THE PURPOSE OF THE GIFT WAS TO INFLUENCE THE EMPLOYEE IN THE CONDUCT OF SKY LAKES BUSINESS WITH THE DONOR. EMPLOYEES ARE NOT PROHIBITED FROM ACCEPTING ADVERTISING NOVELTIES SUCH AS PENS, PENCILS, CALENDARS, OR OTHER GIFTS OF NOMINAL VALUE, HOWEVER, WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES CLEARLY SHOW THAT THE GIFTS ARE OFFERED FOR REASONS OF PERSONAL ESTEEM AND AFFECTION. DUE TO THE DIFFICULTY OF DEFINING ALL OF THE SITUATIONS UNDER WHICH A CONFLICT OF INTEREST MAY ARISE, EMPLOYEES ARE INSTRUCTED BY POLICY TO SOLICIT ADVICE FROM MANAGEMENT REGARDING ANY POSSIBLE CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15	THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS REVIEWS COMPARATIVE DATA FOR CEO AND ALL VP POSITIONS.

	UNCOMPENSATED CARE - DURING FISCAL YEAR 2015, SKY LAKES MEDICAL CENTER, LIKE MOST US HOSPITALS, SAW A SHIFT AWAY FROM CHARITY CARE APPLICATIONS DUE TO THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT. CHARGES WRITTEN OFF UNDER OUR BROAD-REACHING CHARITY CARE POLICY TOTALED $7,012,265 (COMPARED TO $11,662,310 FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2014). IN ADDITION TO CHARITY CARE WRITE OFFS, CHARGES WRITTEN OFF AS BAD DEBT TOTALED $12,717,526 (VERSUS$15,963,751 WRITTEN OFF IN FISCAL YEAR 2014). AS A PERCENTAGE OF CHARGES, FISCAL YEAR 2015 WRITE OFFS REPRESENT 1.3% (CHARITY CARE) AND 1.2% (BAD DEBT), RESPECTIVELY. THESE PERCENTAGES FOR THE PRIOR YEAR WERE 2.3% AND 2.5%. WE CONTINUE TO DO A MUCH BETTER JOB, AT THE TIME SERVICES ARE PROVIDED, IN IDENTIFYING PATIENTS REQUIRING CHARITY CARE. THIS ALLOWS US, AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, THE ABILITY TO AVOID LATER WRITING OFF SERVICES TO BAD DEBT. THIS RESULTS IN ALSO LOWERING OUR BAD DEBT WRITE OFF PERCENTAGE.
