SCHEDULE H, PART I; LINE 3C	THE INCOME BASED CRITERIA USED TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY IS PER NEW JERSEY ADMINISTRATIVE CODE 10:52 SUB CHAPTERS 11, 12 AND 13, AND BASED UPON THE 2015 POVERTY GUIDELINES (DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SENIOR SERVICES). FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES ARE INCLUDED IN THE CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY AND DISCOUNTED CARE.
SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 6A	NOT APPLICABLE.
SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 7A	PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CONVERSION OF MANY CHARITY CARE PATIENTS TO MEDICAID MANAGED CARE PATIENTS AS WELL AS A CONSISTENT CHARITY CARE SUBSIDY FROM THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY HAS CREATED AN EXPENSE RECOVERY ON SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7A, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT COST, FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMEBER 31, 2015. THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE SUBSIDY IS BEING REDUCED FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2015 WITH FUTHER REDUCTIONS LIKELY ON A PROSPECTIVE BASIS.

SCHEDULE H, PART II	COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN BY THE FACILITY IMPROVE THE MEDICAL AND SOCIOECONOMIC WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITIES IN OUR CARE. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH A WIDE ARRAY OF ACTIVITIES AND SERVICES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED, TO: - SERVICE ON STATE AND REGIONAL ADVOCACY COMMITTEES AND BOARDS, - VOLUNTEERISM WITH LOCAL COMMUNITY-BASED NON-PROFIT ADVOCACY GROUPS, - PARTICIPATION IN CONFERENCES AND OTHER EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES TO PROMOTE UNDERSTANDING OF THE CAUSES AND TREATMENT OF HEALTH CONCERNS, - THE PROVISION OF EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS AND SPONSORING HEALTH EDUCATION SEMINARS AND OUTREACH SESSIONS FOR ITS PATIENTS AND FOR COMMUNITY PROVIDERS [PRESENTATIONS ARE OFTEN PROVIDED BY PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND OTHER HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS], - PARTICIPATION IN COMMUNITY HEALTH FAIRS, - SERVING ON THE BOARDS OF MANY LOCAL NOT FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND PROVIDE OTHER FORMS OF SUPPORT (FUNDRAISING, ACTIVITY PARTICIPATION), AND - PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION. PLEASE ALSO REFER TO FORM 990, SCHEDULE O, WHICH CONTAINS THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT STATEMENT AND OUR RESPONSE TO SCHEDULE H, PART VI, QUESTION 6 SUMMARY OF ALL ENTITIES WHICH COMPRISE BARNABAS HEALTH; A TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A; QUESTION 1	HEALTHCARE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION STATEMENT NO. 15 ("STATEMENT 15") PROVIDES GUIDELINES FOR DISTINGUISHING CHARITY CARE FROM BAD DEBT EXPENSE. STATEMENT 15 REQUIRES THAT CHARITY CARE IS NOT RECOGNIZED AS RECEIVABLE OR REVENUE IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. STATEMENT 15 FURTHER EXPLAINS THAT SELF-PAY PATIENTS THAT DO HAVE A REASONABLE LIKELIHOOD OF PAYMENT SHOULD BE REPORTED AS CHARITY CARE AND NOT BAD DEBT EXPENSE. THE HOSPITAL GENERALLY FOLLOWS THE GUIDELINES OUTLINED IN STATEMENT 15. IN ADDITION, THE HOSPITAL FOLLOWS THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY GUIDELINES IN DETERMINING CHARITY CARE ELIGIBILITY. IN CERTAIN INSTANCES, IT IS UNLIKELY THAT UNINSURED PATIENTS WILL PAY FOR THE SERVICES RENDERED, BUT THEY DO NOT QUALIFY FOR THE STATE'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM BECAUSE OF LACK OF PATIENT COOPERATION OR OTHER REASONS. THE HOSPITAL PURSUES COLLECTION OF THESE AMOUNTS AND UNPAID BALANCES ARE REPORTED AS BAD DEBT EXPENSE. UNDER STATEMENT 15, THESE AMOUNTS WOULD BE RECORDED AS CHARITY CARE RATHER THAN BAD DEBT EXPENSE AND THIS IS THE RATIONALE FOR OUR RESPONSE: "NO".
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A; QUESTIONS 2, 3 & 4	BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED USING THE PROVIDERS' BAD DEBT EXPENSE FROM FINANCIAL STATEMENT, NET OF ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF AT CHARGES. BARNABAS HEALTH AND ITS AFFILIATES, INCLUDING ITS HOSPITALS AND SUBSIDIARIES, PREPARE AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. BH'S ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS (BAD DEBT EXPENSE) METHODOLOGY AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED ACROSS ALL HOSPITAL AFFILIATES. PLEASE REFER TO FOOTNOTES 2(D) AND 2(O) ON PAGES 8 AND 14; RESPECTIVELY, OF THE BARNABAS HEALTH, INC. AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ATTACHED TO THIS FORM 990. CHARITY CARE AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS MISSION AND PHILOSOPHY, BARNABAS HEALTH'S HOSPITALS COMMIT SUBSTANTIAL RESOURCES TO BOTH THE INDIGENT POPULATION AND THE BROADER COMMUNITY. THE CORPORATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY IS TO PROVIDE CARE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY FOR SERVICES RENDERED. TO THE EXTENT THAT PATIENTS DO NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO PAY, SERVICES RENDERED TO THOSE PATIENTS ARE REPORTED AS CHARITY CARE. THE CORPORATION'S HOSPITALS AND AFFILIATES ALSO PROVIDE OTHER BENEFITS THROUGH A BROAD RANGE OF COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAMS AND CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES. THE AMOUNT OF CHARITY CARE, COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAMS, AND CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES, AT COST, PROVIDED TO THE INDIGENT POPULATION AND BROADER COMMUNITY FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31 IS AS FOLLOWS: 2015 2014 -------- ------- (IN THOUSANDS) COST OF CHARITY CARE AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAMS: - NET COST OF CHARITY CARE PROVIDED $14,917 $28,897 - UNPAID COST OF PUBLIC PROGRAMS, MEDICAID AND OTHER MEANS TESTED PROGRAMS $87,458 $73,844 OTHER PROGRAMS: - CASH AND IN-KIND DONATIONS $ 2,368 $ 2,333 - EDUCATION AND RESEARCH $39,259 $40,705 - SUBSIDIZED DEPARTMENTS $ 7,101 $ 1,732 - OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT $ 6,771 $ 6,544 THE CORPORATION'S HOSPITALS UTILIZE A COST TO CHARGE RATIO METHODOLOGY TO CONVERT CHARITY CARE TO COST. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO IS CALCULATED UTILIZING THE CORPORATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY'S REGULATIONS PROVIDE FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS FROM A CHARITY CARE FUND, WHICH IS INTENDED TO PARTIALLY OFFSET THE COST OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE UNINSURED. FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014, BARNABAS HEALTH'S HOSPITALS RECEIVED DISTRIBUTIONS FROM THE CHARITY CARE FUND OF $96,842 AND $89,254, RESPECTIVELY, WHICH ARE INCLUDED IN NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THE 2015 INCREASE IS INCLUSIVE OF A FULL YEAR OF FUNDING RELATED TO THE ACQUISITION OF JERSEY CITY MEDICAL CENTER. THE RATIONALE FOR INCLUDING A PORTION OF BAD DEBT AMOUNTS AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT IS DISCUSSED IN RESPONSE TO PART III, LINE 8 BELOW.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 8	MEDICARE COSTS WERE DERIVED FROM THE 2015 MEDICARE COST REPORT. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THE ORGANIZATION FEELS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. AS OUTLINED MORE FULLY BELOW THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT THESE SERVICES AND RELATED COSTS PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AND ARE RENDERED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITABLE TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSES AND MISSION IN PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUAL'S IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY AND CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD PROMULGATED BY THE IRS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IS THE CURRENT STANDARD FOR A HOSPITAL FOR RECOGNITION AS A TAX-EXEMPT AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC") 501(C)(3). THE ORGANIZATION IS RECOGNIZED AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER 501(C)(3) OF THE IRC. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO DEFINITION IN THE TAX CODE FOR THE TERM "CHARITABLE" A REGULATION PROMULGATED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY PROVIDES SOME GUIDANCE AND STATES THAT "[T]HE TERM CHARITABLE IS USED IN 501(C)(3) IN ITS GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE,PROVIDES EXAMPLES OF CHARITABLE PURPOSES, INCLUDING THE RELIEF OF THE POOR OR UNPRIVILEGED; THE PROMOTION OF SOCIAL WELFARE; AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION, RELIGION, AND SCIENCE. NOTE IT DOES NOT EXPLICITLY ADDRESS THE ACTIVITIES OF HOSPITALS. IN THE ABSENCE OF EXPLICIT STATUTORY OR REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS APPLYING THE TERM "CHARITABLE" TO HOSPITALS, IT HAS BEEN LEFT TO THE IRS TO DETERMINE THE CRITERIA HOSPITALS MUST MEET TO QUALIFY AS IRC 501(C)(3) CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS. THE ORIGINAL STANDARD WAS KNOWN AS THE CHARITY CARE STANDARD. THIS STANDARD WAS REPLACED BY THE IRS WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD WHICH IS THE CURRENT STANDARD. CHARITY CARE STANDARD IN 1956, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 56-185, WHICH ADDRESSED THE REQUIREMENTS HOSPITALS NEEDED TO MEET IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR IRC 501(C)(3) STATUS. ONE OF THESE REQUIREMENTS IS KNOWN AS THE "CHARITY CARE STANDARD." UNDER THE STANDARD, A HOSPITAL HAD TO PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY FOR IT. A HOSPITAL THAT EXPECTED FULL PAYMENT DID NOT, ACCORDING TO THE RULING, PROVIDE CHARITY CARE BASED ON THE FACT THAT SOME PATIENTS ULTIMATELY FAILED TO PAY. THE RULING EMPHASIZED THAT A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE DID NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THAT A HOSPITAL HAD FAILED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT SINCE THAT LEVEL COULD REFLECT ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE SUCH CARE. THE RULING ALSO NOTED THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED COMMUNITY HOSPITALS WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY AS CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY, AND A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE WOULD NOT AFFECT A HOSPITAL'S EXEMPT STATUS IF IT WAS DUE TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY'S LACK OF CHARITABLE DEMANDS. COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IN 1969, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH "REMOVE[D]" FROM REVENUE RULING 56-185 "THE REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO CARING FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT RATES BELOW COST." UNDER THE STANDARD DEVELOPED IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE "COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD," HOSPITALS ARE JUDGED ON WHETHER THEY PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF A BROAD CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE RULING INVOLVED A HOSPITAL THAT ONLY ADMITTED INDIVIDUALS WHO COULD PAY FOR THE SERVICES (BY THEMSELVES, PRIVATE INSURANCE, OR PUBLIC PROGRAMS SUCH AS MEDICARE), BUT OPERATED A FULL-TIME EMERGENCY ROOM THAT WAS OPEN TO EVERYONE. THE IRS RULED THAT THE HOSPITAL QUALIFIED AS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION BECAUSE IT PROMOTED THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE IN ITS COMMUNITY. THE IRS REASONED THAT BECAUSE THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH WAS A CHARITABLE PURPOSE ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY, IT FELL WITHIN THE "GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE" OF THE TERM "CHARITABLE," AS REQUIRED BY TREAS. REG. 1.501(C)(3)-1(D)(2). THE IRS RULING STATED THAT THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH, LIKE THE RELIEF OF POVERTY AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RELIGION, IS ONE OF THE PURPOSES IN THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY THAT IS DEEMED BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE EVEN THOUGH THE CLASS OF BENEFICIARIES ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A DIRECT BENEFIT FROM ITS ACTIVITIES DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS INDIGENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDED THAT THE CLASS IS NOT SO SMALL THAT ITS RELIEF IS NOT OF BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE IRS CONCLUDED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS "PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF A CLASS OF PERSONS THAT IS BROAD ENOUGH TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY" BECAUSE ITS EMERGENCY ROOM WAS OPEN TO ALL AND IT PROVIDED CARE TO EVERYONE WHO COULD PAY, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT. OTHER CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HOSPITAL THAT THE IRS HIGHLIGHTED INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING: ITS SURPLUS FUNDS WERE USED TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, EXPAND HOSPITAL FACILITIES, AND ADVANCE MEDICAL TRAINING, EDUCATION, AND RESEARCH; IT WAS CONTROLLED BY A BOARD OF TRUSTEES THAT CONSISTED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS; AND HOSPITAL MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES WERE AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ("AHA") FEELS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THIS ORGANIZATION AGREES WITH THE AHA POSITION. AS OUTLINED IN THE AHA LETTER TO THE IRS DATED AUGUST 21, 2007 WITH RESPECT TO THE FIRST PUBLISHED DRAFT OF THE NEW FORM 990 AND SCHEDULE H, THE AHA FELT THAT THE IRS SHOULD INCORPORATE THE FULL VALUE OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT THAT HOSPITALS PROVIDE BY COUNTING MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: - PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY AND SERVING MEDICARE PATIENTS IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD. - MEDICARE, LIKE MEDICAID, DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE. RECENTLY, MEDICARE REIMBURSES HOSPITALS ONLY 92 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR THEY SPEND TO TAKE CARE OF MEDICARE PATIENTS. THE MEDICARE PAYMENT ADVISORY COMMISSION ("MEDPAC") IN ITS MARCH 2007 REPORT TO CONGRESS CAUTIONED THAT UNDERPAYMENT WILL GET EVEN WORSE, WITH MARGINS REACHING A 10-YEAR LOW AT NEGATIVE 5.4 PERCENT. - MANY MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 46 PERCENT OF MEDICARE SPENDING IS FOR BENEFICIARIES WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MANY OF THOSE MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID -- SO CALLED ELIGIBLES." THERE IS EVERY COMPELLING PUBLIC POLICY REASON TO TREAT MEDICARE AND MEDICAID UNDERPAYMENTS SIMILARLY FOR PURPOSES OF A HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND INCLUDE THESE COSTS ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT MUST BE SHOULDERED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE COMMUNITY'S ELDERLY AND POOR. THESE UNDERPAYMENTS REPRESENT A REAL COST OF SERVING THE COMMUNITY AND SHOULD COUNT AS A QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT. BOTH THE AHA AND THIS ORGANIZATION ALSO FEEL THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT IS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. LIKE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT (SHORTFALLS), THERE ALSO ARE COMPELLING REASONS THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT SHOULD BE COUNTED AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS FOLLOWS: - A SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, WHO, FOR MANY REASONS, DECLINE TO COMPLETE THE FORMS REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY FOR HOSPITALS' CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. A 2006 CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ("CBO") REPORT, NONPROFIT HOSPITALS AND THE PROVISION OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS, CITED TWO STUDIES INDICATING THAT "THE GREAT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT WAS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WITH INCOMES BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE." - THE REPORT ALSO NOTED THAT A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. UNLIKE BAD DEBT IN OTHER INDUSTRIES, HOSPITAL BAD DEBT IS COMPLICATED BY THE FACT THAT HOSPITALS FOLLOW THEIR MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TREAT EVERY PATIENT THAT COMES THROUGH THEIR EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. PATIENTS WHO HAVE OUTSTANDING BILLS ARE NOT TURNED AWAY, UNLIKE OTHER INDUSTRIES. BAD DEBT IS FURTHER COMPLICATED BY THE AUDITING INDUSTRY'S STANDARDS ON REPORTING CHARITY CARE. MANY PATIENTS CANNOT OR DO NOT PROVIDE THE NECESSARY, EXTENSIVE DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED TO BE DEEMED CHARITY CARE BY AUDITORS. AS A RESULT, ROUGHLY 40% OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. - THE CBO CONCLUDED THAT ITS FINDINGS "SUPPORT THE VALIDITY OF THE USE OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE [BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE] AS A MEASURE OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS" ASSUMING THE FINDINGS ARE GENERALIZABLE NATIONWIDE; THE EXPE
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 9B	ACCOUNTS CONSIDERED TO BE CHARITY CARE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, BUT RATHER, ACCOUNTED FOR AS AN ALLOWANCE. IT IS THE POLICY OF the BARNABAS HEALTH ("BH") BUSINESS OFFICE, AND ALL ITS HOSPITAL AFFILIATES, TO TREAT ALL PATIENTS EQUALLY REGARDLESS OF INSURANCE AND THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. FOR ACCOUNTS DETERMINED TO BE "SELF-PAYOR ACCOUNTS WITH BALANCE AFTER PRIMARY INSURANCE PAYMENTS, THE COLLECTION POLICY REQUIRES: SENDING THREE STATEMENTS, A MINIMUM OF ONE PRE-COLLECTION LETTER/TELEPHONE CONTACT FOR ANY ACCOUNT OVER $5,000.00 OR AT THE DISCRETION OF THE ACCOUNT REPRESENTATIVE AND/OR SUPERVISOR. THE FACILITY ALSO HAS A CHARITY CARE ACCESS POLICY TO ASSURE PATIENTS ARE PROVIDED WITH CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE DETERMINED BY STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS. IT IS THE POLICY TO INFORM ALL PATIENTS DEEMED SELF-PAY OF THE APPROPRIATE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE. PATIENTS APPLYING FOR CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE WILL BE FINANCIALLY SCREENED BY A RESOURCE ADVISOR TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY ACCORDING TO STATE AND FEDERAL GUIDELINES AND WILL BE INFORMED OF DOCUMENTATION NEED TO COMPLETE A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION. PATIENTS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE WILL BE FINANCIALLY COUNSELED FOR ALL OTHER OPTIONS. QUALIFIED PATIENTS WILL BE REFERRED TO ALL APPROPRIATE AGENCIES OR PROGRAMS TO MEET OTHER FINANCIAL NEEDS. AT THE TIME OF THE PATIENT VISIT AND PART OF THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AT THE FACILITY, THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO PATIENTS: - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE INCLUDING MEDICAID AND SSI; - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR THE NEW JERSEY HOSPITAL CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM; AND, - FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS INCLUDING: 1. CASH/CREDIT CARD (AMERICAN EXPRESS, DISCOVER, VISA, MASTERCARD), 2. LOW INTEREST LOAN PROGRAM, OR 3. FLEXIBLE PAYMENT PLANS. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE OPTIONS, THE FACILITY HAS ESTABLISHED A SELF-PAY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM FOR OUR UNINSURED PATIENTS THAT DO NOT QUALIFY FOR MEDICAID OR THE NEW JERSEY HOSPITAL CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THE SELF-PAY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM RATES ARE REFLECTIVE OF MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT, AS REFERRED BY THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI; QUESTION 2	IN ADDITION TO THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE 501(R) COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT INFORMATION OUTLINED IN FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, BARNABAS HEALTH CONDUCTS A REVIEW OF KEY MARKET FACTORS FOR NBIMC ANNUALLY WHICH INCLUDES: - A REVIEW OF HEALTH CARE UTILIZATION OF ITS SERVICE AREA POPULATION BY SERVICES (CARDIOLOGY, OBSTETRICS, GYNECOLOGY, UROLOGY, ETC.) FOR DETERMINING INCREASED OR DECREASED HEALTH NEEDS; - HEALTH CARE SERVICE ESTIMATES FOR INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SERVICES; - ASSESSMENT OF LOCAL DEMOGRAPHIC AND SOCIOECONOMIC INFORMATION; - COMMUNITY HEALTH STATUS DATA; AND - A REVIEW OF HEALTH STATUS/NEEDS ASSESSMENTS AND STUDIES CONDUCTED BY EXTERNAL PARTIES (HEALTH RESEARCH AND EDUCATION TRUST OF NEW JERSEY, KIDS COUNT, COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS, SEER CANCER INCIDENCE AND MORTALITY, TO NAME A FEW). NBIMC CONDUCTS AN EXTENSIVE SERVICE AREA POPULATION PHYSICIAN NEED STUDY (BY PRIMARY CARE AND PHYSICIAN SPECIALTY) EVERY THREE TO FIVE YEARS. THE STUDY USES GENERALLY ACCEPTED PHYSICIAN TO POPULATION RATIOS TO IDENTIFY GAPS IN SERVICE. THESE STUDIES INFORM MEDICAL STAFF DEVELOPMENT AND RECRUITMENT NEEDS AT THE MEDICAL CENTER AND ASSURE RESPONSIVENESS TO IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY PHYSICIAN NEEDS AND TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO PHYSICIAN SERVICES. NBIMC REVIEWS PATIENT SURVEYS AND COMMENTS TO UNDERSTAND PATIENT AND FAMILY CONCERNS.

Return Reference	Explanation
CORE FORM, PART III, STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS	Background ========== Newark Beth Israel Medical Center ("NBIMC"), a 665-bed teaching hospital established in 1901, provides comprehensive healthcare services to its local communities and is a major referral and treatment center for patients throughout the northern New Jersey metropolitan area. NBIMC is located in the county of Essex, within the city of Newark, which has the most population of all cities in New Jersey. Essex County is the second most densely populated of the 21 counties and has the third largest total population in the state. Essex County, a leading financial and industrial hub of the state, consists of both urban and suburban communities that represent a broad range of racial/ethnic and cultural diversity. NBIMC is a major teaching hospital. NBIMC is recognized by the internal revenue service ("IRS") as an internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Pursuant to its charitable purposes, NBIMC provides medically necessary healthcare services to all individuals in a non-discriminatory manner regardless of race, color, creed, sex, national origin or ability to pay. Moreover, NBIMC operates consistently with the following criteria outlined in IRS revenue ruling 69-545: 1. NBIMC provides medically necessary healthcare services to all individuals regardless of ability to pay, including charity care, self-pay, Medicare and Medicaid patients; 2. NBIMC operates an active emergency department for all persons which is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days per year; with both specialized Pediatric and Geriatric Emergency Rooms; 3. NBIMC maintains an open medical staff, with privileges available to all qualified physicians; 4. Control of NBIMC rests with its board of trustees and the board of trustees of Barnabas Health, Inc. Both boards are comprised of independent civic leaders and other prominent members of the community; and 5. Surplus funds are used to improve the quality of patient care, expand and renovate facilities and advance medical care, programs and activities. The operations of NBIMC, as shown through the factors outlined above and other information contained herein, clearly demonstrate that the hospital provides substantial community benefit and that the use and control of NBIMC is for the benefit of the public and that no part of the income or net earnings of the organization inures to the benefit of any private individual, nor is any private interest being served other than incidentally. Barnabas Health is a tax-exempt integrated healthcare delivery system consisting of a group of affiliated healthcare organizations. NBIMC's sole corporate member is Barnabas Health, Inc. ("BH"). BH is also the tax-exempt New Jersey non-profit parent corporation of the integrated healthcare delivery system. The sole member of each entity is either BH or another BH affiliate controlled or owned by BH. NBIMC, like its corporate parent, is a not-for-profit organization. This integrated network of healthcare providers provides substantial community benefit throughout the state of New Jersey. BH is the largest multi-hospital system in New Jersey and provides substantial community benefit. BH consists of free-standing acute care hospitals, a free-standing psychiatric hospital, Medicare-certified home healthcare and hospice programs, multi-specialty ambulatory care facilities, primary care centers, outpatient behavioral health centers and other entities. BH entities provide medically necessary healthcare services to all individuals regardless of ability to pay. Moreover, BH entities provide healthcare services to patients who meet certain criteria defined by the New Jersey Department of Health without charge or at amounts less than established rates. BH maintains records to identify and monitor the amount of charity care it provides. These records include the amount of charges foregone for services and supplies furnished under its charity care policy. Hospital Statistical Information ================================ NBIMC is a 665 licensed bed, non-profit, fully accredited regional care teaching hospital located in Newark, New Jersey. NBIMC provides comprehensive care to its local communities and serves as a major referral and treatment center for patients throughout the northern New Jersey metropolitan area. In 2015, NBIMC had over 21,200 inpatient admissions, over 3,000 births and about 83,000 emergency visits. In addition, NBIMC provided over 220,000 outpatient and same day visits for clinics, outpatient surgery and specialty services. NBIMCs patient population is represented by 90% minority race/ethnicity and over 43% of patients are of underinsured and uninsured payer classification.

The heart transplant program has been one of the ten most active in the country for eight consecutive years and is one of only two sites in nation to achieve better than expected 3-year heart transplant survival rates from 2004 to 2007 (based on data from the national scientific registry of transplant recipients).

NBIMC's short- and long-term survival rates have continually surpassed both regional and national averages. Furthermore the patients spend less time waiting for a heart transplant than most candidates across the country. The experienced multidisciplinary team has worked closely together under the same leadership for more than 20 years. NBIMC is a designated ventricular assist devise ("VAD") center and was one of the first in NJ to employ extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ("ECMO"). 2.

To-date, the center has already performed 77 transplants. The program brings specialty services to the state improving the lives of people with advanced lung conditions including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ("COPD"), cystic fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension. While a primary goal of the Program is to identify suitable candidates for a transplant, the comprehensive multidisciplinary evaluation can also benefit patients who are not transplant candidates. The Program offers complete evaluation and treatment plans for patients with lung diseases such as: Asthma, Cystic Fibrosis Interstitial lung diseases, Alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Pulmonary Fibrosis, Sarcoidosis, Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), Scleroderma, Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and Pulmonary Hypertension.

Medical and Community Services ============================== NBIMC services include an array of additional medical services and programs that address the healthcare needs of its communities, from diagnostic, to prevention and treatment. We are always looking for innovative ways to reach members of our community as we work to improve health status. A few of our successful programs include: MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL/MEN'S HEALTH NIGHT with The Beth ------------------------------------------------------ NBIMC was looking for a better way to connect men to having healthy lifestyles and to engage them in improving their quality of life through healthy living. We decided to create programming that would combine things that men enjoy (sports) with things that men historically don't do (have regular health checkups and screenings). Two years ago, we created and hosted MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL/Men's Health Night with The Beth. The goal was to use a former NFL player (George Martin) to encourage men to follow his journey to healthy living through diet, exercise and positive living. The evening event includes a presentation by George Martin, followed by power point presentations by four physicians from NBIMC; a cardiologist, an orthopedic surgeon, an urologist and a primary care physician. Before and after the presentations, the men receive a number of screenings, followed by massages and more. The event is strategically held at the Maplewood Golf Course, and the evening includes a mini-golf exercise as well. Following the presentations, the tailgate party kicks off with food and beverages better than the Giants parking lot, followed by the game on TV screens throughout the Maplewood Country Club. In the first year, our goal was to have 50 men. By the time word spread days before the event, we hosted 102 men, many of whom are now connected to The Beth and who have received a prostate screening and more. This past year, 106 men were immediately screened for prostate as well. In the second year, a Newark fireman told us this event is his yearly reminder to get healthy and stay healthy. He said from MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL, he found that he had diabetes and hypertension. He has since lost more than 50 pounds and continues to enjoy life more fully. MEN'S Health Night has since spread to high school athletes (unisex) where George Martin speaks to athletes at Newark's Shabazz High School about healthy living and we are about to launch a similar program at our second church. WOMEN'S HEALTH DAY at The Beth ------------------------------ The women of the South Ward of Newark and other parts of the city always support NNIMCs Annual Health Fair which has been held in September for more than 15 years. A couple of years ago, so many women attended the event that it gave us the idea of creating a health day just for women. The health day would include lectures, guest speakers, screenings, wellness and an exclusive lunch as part of a wellness initiative to improve the health of women in Newark. The first year, we partnered with Rutgers University/Newark to encourage students, professors and employees to join us on a journey of wellness. More than 200 women registered for the day-long wellness program that included NBIMC physicians focused on women's health. The second year, we decided to develop a program for 100 women. From screenings and private consultations with physicians to conversations with geriatricians to yoga, cooking, diet, exercise, massages and healthy eating classes, the day became the highlight of their commitment to begin a regimen of healthy living. The day also included special gifts for women such as journals, makeup donated by Queen Latifah/Revlon, and gifts to serve as a reminder that healthy living can be rewarding. We are looking at ways to explore new ground and new opportunities to make wellness a focal point for the women of the South Ward and Newark. FALLS PREVENTION PROGRAM ------------------------- Falls is one of the most fatal and nonfatal injuries seniors face.

The Beth Greenhouse in Newark ----------------------------- One of the greatest barriers to a healthy and nutritious diet is access to fresh foods.

THE COMMITTEE HAS ADOPTED A WRITTEN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY WHICH IT FOLLOWS WHEN IT REVIEWS AND APPROVES OF THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF BH'S SENIOR MANAGEMENT. THE COMMITTEE ALSO REVIEWS THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF OTHER KEY OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES OF BARNABAS HEALTH; INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF BARNABAS HEALTH HOSPITALS AND MEDICAL CENTERS. THE COMMITTEE, WHICH IS REQUIRED BY THE CORPORATION'S BYLAWS TO BE COMPRISED SOLELY OF INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES, SEEKS GUIDANCE AND SUBSTANTIATION FROM A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED COMPENSATION CONSULTANT. THE COMMITTEE REVIEWS THE "TOTAL COMPENSATION" OF THE INDIVIDUALS WHICH IS INTENDED TO INCLUDE BOTH CURRENT AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND ALL EMPLOYEE BENEFITS, BOTH QUALIFIED AND NON-QUALIFIED. THE COMMITTEE'S REVIEW IS DONE ON AT LEAST AN ANNUAL BASIS AND ENSURES THAT THE "TOTAL COMPENSATION" OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT OF THE ORGANIZATION IS REASONABLE. THE ACTIONS TAKEN BY THE COMMITTEE ENABLE THE ORGANIZATION TO RECEIVE THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS FOR PURPOSES OF INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 4958 WITH RESPECT TO THE TOTAL COMPENSATION OF CERTAIN MEMBERS OF THE SENIOR MANAGEMENT TEAM. THE THREE FACTORS WHICH MUST BE SATISFIED IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS ARE THE FOLLOWING: 1. THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT IS APPROVED IN ADVANCE BY AN "AUTHORIZED BODY" OF THE APPLICABLE TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION WHICH IS COMPOSED ENTIRELY OF INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT HAVE A "CONFLICT OF INTEREST" WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT; 2. THE AUTHORIZED BODY OBTAINED AND RELIED UPON "APPROPRIATE DATA AS TO COMPARABILITY" PRIOR TO MAKING ITS DETERMINATION; AND 3. THE AUTHORIZED BODY "ADEQUATELY DOCUMENTED THE BASIS FOR ITS DETERMINATION" CONCURRENTLY WITH MAKING THAT DETERMINATION. THE COMMITTEE IS COMPRISED OF MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES EACH OF WHO ARE INDEPENDENT AND ARE FREE FROM ANY CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. THE COMMITTEE RELIED UPON APPROPRIATE COMPARABLE DATA; SPECIFICALLY THE COMMITTEE OBTAINED A WRITTEN COMPENSATION STUDY FROM AN INDEPENDENT FIRM WHICH SPECIALIZES IN THE REVIEW OF HOSPITAL AND HEALTHCARE SYSTEM EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. THIS STUDY USED COMPARABLE GEOGRAPHIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC MARKET DATA INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, SIMILARLY SIZED HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS AND HOSPITALS, # OF LICENSED BEDS AND NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THE COMMITTEE ADEQUATELY DOCUMENTED THE BASIS FOR ITS DETERMINATION THROUGH THE TIMELY PREPARATION OF WRITTEN MINUTES OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE MEETINGS DURING WHICH THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS WAS REVIEWED AND SUBSEQUENTLY APPROVED. THE ACTIONS OUTLINED ABOVE WITH RESPECT TO THE COMMITTEE AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS APPLIES TO CERTAIN BH SENIOR MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL. THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF CERTAIN OTHER INDIVIDUALS CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 990, WHERE APPLICABLE, ARE REVIEWED ANNUALLY BY THE BARNABAS HEALTH PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER WITH ASSISTANCE FROM THE ORGANIZATION'S HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INDIVIDUAL'S JOB PERFORMANCE DURING THE YEAR AND IS BASED UPON OTHER OBJECTIVE FACTORS DESIGNED TO ENSURE THAT REASONABLE AND FAIR MARKET VALUE COMPENSATION IS PAID BY THE ORGANIZATION. OTHER OBJECTIVE FACTORS INCLUDE MARKET SURVEY DATA FOR COMPARABLE POSITIONS, INDIVIDUAL GOALS AND OBJECTIVES, PERSONNEL REVIEWS, EVALUATIONS, SELF-EVALUATIONS AND PERFORMANCE FEEDBACK MEETINGS.
