| Form 990, Part III, Line 4a PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE SYSTEM FOUNDATION, INC. COMMUNITY BENEFIT NARRATIVE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 6/30/2015 I. MISSION MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE SYSTEM FOUNDATION, INC. (THE FOUNDATION) WAS FOUNDED IN JANUARY 2001 TO RAISE AWARENESS AND FUNDS EXCLUSIVELY FOR MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE SYSTEM, INC. (MHCS), A TAX EXEMPT HEALTH CARE SYSTEM. THE MISSION OF CATHOLIC HEALTH INITIATIVES AND MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE SYSTEM, INC. IS TO NURTURE THE HEALING MINISTRY OF THE CHURCH, BRINGING IT NEW LIFE, ENERGY AND VIABILITY IN THE 21ST CENTURY. CATHOLIC HEALTH INITIATIVES AND MHCS ARE COMMITTED TO FIDELITY TO THE GOSPEL, WITH EMPHASIS ON HUMAN DIGNITY AND SOCIAL JUSTICE IN THE CREATION OF HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES. THE FUNDS RAISED BY THE FOUNDATION ALLOW MHCS TO EXTEND ITS MISSION OF MEDICAL EXCELLENCE FURTHER INTO THE COMMUNITY. THE FOUNDATION HAS A GOVERNING BOARD COMPRISED OF COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES THAT REPRESENT THE DIVERSE POPULATIONS WITHIN THE CHATTANOOGA AREA. II. COMMUNITY BENEFIT In FY 2015, the Foundation raised funds through special events, annual giving, major gifts, planned giving, corporate/foundation grants and capital campaigns to fund capital equipment, provide medical services to underserved populations, support community outreach programs, scholarships to students pursuing healthcare careers, and an endowment fund. In FY 15, the Foundation raised 3 million for these purposes and disbursed $2.4 million to support Memorial Health Care System nonprofit health care services. Since its inception, the Foundation has raised $37 million and disbursed $21.2 million to support Memorial Health Care System's mission. Community services have always been a significant part of Memorial Healthcare System. Each year, services and programs offered to the community are evaluated and expanded to promote both increased access to healthcare and healthier communities. To enhance the health status of Chattanoogans, Memorial focuses on the whole person including the person's spiritual, emotional, and physical well-being. Highlighted below are some of the programs or capital expenditures that have been made possible through funding from the Foundation. REES SKILLERN CANCER INSTITUTE IN HONOR OF THE WISHES OF THE DONOR'S SON, WHO BATTLED CANCER FOR MANY YEARS AND RECEIVED MUCH OF HIS TREATMENT AT MHCS, A GENEROUS DONATION OF $3 MILLION WAS GIVEN TO THE FOUNDATION TO HELP ADVANCE CANCER CARE IN THE LOCAL CHATTANOOGA COMMUNITY. THIS GENEROUS GIFT WILL FUND THREE HIGHLY SPECIALIZED SERVICES THAT ARE NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE IN THE CHATTANOOGA REGION. HIGH RISK GENETIC COUNSELING, A MULTI-DISCIPLINARY RESOURCE FOR ADULT CANCER SURVIVORS, AND GREATER ACCESS TO THE LATEST CANCER TREATMENTS. THE HIGH RISK SURVIVORSHIP CLINIC WAS DESIGNED AND BUILT IN FY 2014 AND WILL BEGAN TREATING PATIENTS IN FY 2015. BUZ STANDEFER LUNG CENTER Through donations exceeding 1.4 million dollars, Memorial Health Care System has created a world-class Lung Center that revolutionizes care for our region. Lung diseases, including lung cancer, are some of the most debilitating and frightening of all medical issues. The Lung Center allows patients suffering from emphysema, asthma, lung cancer, pulmonary fibrosis, and other pulmonary diseases to seek care from pulmonary medicine experts in an environment that diminishes anxiety and fear, allowing the patient and family to be embraced by a team of people who are focused on their specific needs. The Lung Center at Memorial aspires to be the ultimate regional epicenter for lung health, providing the most comprehensive care available. Smoking remains the highest risk factor for lung disease. Within our region, smoking rates range from 20% in Hamilton County to 30% in Catoosa County. One in four Tennesseans smoke, and smoking is responsible for 87% of lung cancers. As a result, every county in our region exceeds the national rates for lung cancer mortality rates. Through the creation of the new Lung Center, Memorial is determined to improve these bleak statistics. The Lung Center at Memorial treats those who have current health issues related to lung disease but also proactively educates and screens the community, with the overall goal of dramatically changing these numbers. As a part of Thoracic Center of Excellence, Memorial offers a lung screening program to help detect lung cancer earlier. In the latter part of FY 15, Medicare announced coverage for this service for individuals who meet specific eligibility criteria. For those who do not meet this criteria, we offer the CT screening to the patient at no cost other than the physician's fee to interpret the exam. In FY 15, 376 CT lung screenings were performed for no charge, and cancer was detected in four of the patients receiving screening. WESTSIDE CLINIC AN ANONYMOUS DONOR WANTED TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF OUR PATIENTS WHO SEEK THEIR HEALTH CARE SERVICES FROM WESTSIDE CLINIC. SHE GAVE $150,000 IN FY 2011 TO THE FOUNDATION AND ALLOWED THE CLINIC STAFF TO DETERMINE HOW THE FUNDS COULD BEST BE USED TO HELP THEIR PATIENTS. ONCE THESE FUNDS WERE EXHAUSTED, SHE GAVE ANOTHER $40,000 IN FY 2012 TO HELP FUND A NURSE PRACTITIONER WHO FOCUSES ON PATIENTS DIAGNOSED WITH DIABETES. Westside Clinic is located in the Homeless-Chattanooga HPSA ID # 1479994782 and serves the College Hill Courts, a 500 unit intercity housing development and Boynton Towers, a 250 unit low income housing for seniors. The current percentage of residents 65+ is 21.9% compared to the national average of 12.7%. Median household income is $11,259 compared to the national average of $50,152 and Tennessee income of $42,144. Westside Clinic continues to see significant growth in the number of patients it sees. Children who live in these housing developments ranging in age from 8 to 14 are offered the opportunity to participate in the Kids of Growth program at no cost. Kids of Growth meets weekly during the school year for 2 hours and weekly during the summer for 4 hours. Over the course of the year, including summer and afterschool programming, the program serves nearly 70 children. A RN serves as program director and is responsible for developing the curriculum, coordinating volunteers, and cultivating community partnerships. Program staff guide the children in enriching activities including arts and crafts, devotions, community gardening, exercise/play time, and nutrition/health talks. The children also receive a nutritious snack after school or a hot meal during the summer. The ultimate goal of the program is to provide the children with a safe and nurturing place where they can learn skills to develop healthy and productive communities. CHI Memorial Community Health Center- Hixson CHI Memorial Community Health Center-Hixson opened its new location in FY 15 to better serve the residents of North Chattanooga, Red Bank, Hixson and all communities north of the river. The Foundation was able to provided $350,000 in funding for this new facility through generous donations both locally and nationally, CHI Memorial Community Health Centers offer a wide range of services for underserved teens and adults including: * Primary health care * Well-woman checks, including annual pelvic exams and Pap tests * Adult Physicals * Screenings * Diagnosis and management of chronic diseases * Patient counseling as needed * Laboratory services * X-ray services * Patient education * Educational programs |
| Form 990, Part III, Line 4a PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS (CONTINUED) | Mary Ellen Locher Breast Center The Foundation assists the hospital in obtaining grants to fund breast services and education to underserved women. In 2015, the Chattanooga affiliate of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc. awarded a grant to provide underserved women with access to mammograms. Additional funding from Pfizer was also provided to fund screening mammograms for underinsured and underserved women. A mobile mammography coach was purchased through funding from the Tennessee Women's Health Initiative and donations from SunTrust and Chattem Inc. This has enabled us to reach women in outlying communities since March of 2005. Since that time, over 20,000 mammograms have been given on the mobile mammography coach, many of which have been funded through the Komen grant and the TN Breast and Cervical Care Program. In 2009, upgrades to our mobile coach were also funded through Foundation donations. This program has been so successful; the Foundation raised $725,000 in FY 2011 to fund a second mobile coach since the original coach could not meet all the demand for its services. The second coach also offers digital mammography and expands services to include clinical breast and pelvic exams. In FY 12, the Hurlburt Foundation provided their first grant of $35,000 to assist with funding pap smears and mammograms for underserved women on the mobile coach. After demonstrating how we were able to use those funds to serve underserved women, they have granted two additional grants for $50,000 and 60,000 in FY 14 and FY 15. In FY 15 of the 4293 women participating in the outreach breast cancer screening programs, 209 received abnormal mammogram results and 11 of these women were diagnosed with breast cancer. All women are provided breast screening services regardless of their ability to pay through Memorial Health Care System. The grants we discussed above only cover a portion of the costs incurred by the hospital to provide breast related services. The rest of the cost is covered through hospital funds as a community benefit. The Foundation's support of the hospital allows the hospital to provide more community benefit programs than they would otherwise be able to provide. Once diagnosed with cancer and in treatment we continue offering support to our uninsured and underserved women by providing newly diagnosed patients education and navigation through treatment, mastectomy products and accessories to look your best when experiencing the side effects of treatment with hair loss at no cost. Hand-made hats and heart shaped pillows are donated from community organizations and ladies groups. We accept gently used wigs and mastectomy products, clean them and offer them to ladies who otherwise don't have access. Cancer Resource Center Memorial Hospital has developed a program to help cancer patients and their families cope, offering them the latest information about cancer care. Whether you have just been diagnosed or have a family member with cancer, the oncology professionals at the Cancer Resource Center can answer your questions or help you understand your options regardless of where you go for treatment. You can learn about nutrition during treatment, financial resources, screening opportunities, the most current clinical trials, and support groups and seminars offered to patients, family, and friends. The Cancer Resource Center also offers professionally led support groups, and We Care Week-end, a family retreat for cancer survivors. None of the services are billed to the patient and few qualify for insurance reimbursement. In FY 2015 the cost of this program was $544 thousand. Donations for Cancer Resource Center have help offset these costs. In FY 10, a complimentary weekly program for recently diagnosed cancer patients began. Living Well with Cancer is an introduction and tour of support and treatment services available to MHCS patients. Logistics, such as parking, appropriate entrance for services, food service, and location of the chapel and out patient pharmacy are addressed. Each participant determines their stress level and then meets a social worker to discuss stress. They also meet oncology nutritionists, nurse educators and the oncology chaplain. Patients participate in a stress management exercise, and are encouraged by long term MHCS auxiliary volunteers, who are cancer survivors. We Care Weekend, an annual retreat for recently diagnosed patients and families, is promoted and a save the date card is given to the patients. Patients and their support partners learn how Memorial's Cancer Institute offers complimentary, holistic health services to Live Well with Cancer. Indigent Care for Cancer Patients The Foundation secured funds from the Orion & Emma B. Hurlburt Fund to assist patients overcome barriers to receiving recommended cancer care including assistance with transportation, housing and utility expenses, funding of screenings and diagnostic testing for patient unable to pay. The first indigent grant was received in 2015 for $15,000. This funding has assisted with the many patient needs with a few being detailed below. Nutrition formula for a Head & Neck cancer patient with a feeding tube Electric bills, rent assistance, transportation, and lymphedema sleeves for a breast cancer patient. A mother who drives a large van 140 miles round trip to receive radiation therapy, requiring $50.00 worth of gas every two days. She is on TennCare, home schools six of her eight children. One of the Cancer Services Clinical Social Workers requested gas cards to assist the family. A total of $650.00 worth of gas cards were provided throughout this patient's radiation treatments. A gentleman needed oral surgery for extractions in order to receive chemotherapy. He was employed as a dishwasher, and did not have dental insurance. CHI Memorial staff coordinated the care for an oral surgeon to perform the dental extraction with a large discount and a local facility to provide dentures at a reduced price with the balance of these expenses being covered through the grant. This fund has assisted many cancer patients to Live Well with Cancer, reducing the financial burden of a cancer diagnosis. Capital Projects Funding Through FY 13 and FY 14 the Foundation has raised $15 million to fund master facility plan projects. These projects would have not been possible at the same level they have been designed without the additional funding from the Foundation. The Lung Center, Infusion Center, Heart Center, Mary Ellen Locher Breast Center, mobile program, and Chapel all were made possible with generous community support. CONTRIBUTIONS Memorial Health Care System Foundation helps support all the programs highlighted above from donations they receive. Memorial Hospital is more able to fund research and education, capital expansion, new equipment and renovation, indigent care, and operating cost for programs that would otherwise not be possible based on the support it receives from the Foundation. The value of this community support is returned to the community through lower costs in patient care programs and community services described throughout this document. |

The policy applies to CHI Board of Stewardship Trustees and members of its committees; all board and board committee members of CHI Entities; all CHI employees; all CHI physicians (both employed and non-employed) and all physician administrators and leaders; advanced practice clinicians (both employed and non-employed); and all CHI research personnel (both employed and non-employed). Disclosure, review and management of perceived, potential or actual conflicts of interest are accomplished through a defined COI disclosure process. Each person has a general ongoing obligation to promptly and fully report to his/her direct manager, supervisor, medical staff office, board or board committee chair any situation or circumstance that may create a conflict of interest. The person must report the actual or potential conflict as soon as she/he becomes aware of it. In any situation where the person may be in doubt, a full disclosure should be made to permit an impartial and objective determination. In addition to the general ongoing obligation, there are initial disclosure obligations. The board, board committee members, and new employees are required to make disclosures at the time of their initial hiring/appointment. All non-employed, credentialed or contracted physicians are required to make disclosures at the time of their credentialing and during any subsequent reappointment or recredentialing. All researchers are required to make disclosures upon consideration of affiliation with a research sponsor. In addition to the general ongoing and initial disclosure obligations, there is an annual disclosure obligation. All corporate officers, board and board committee members, employees at the level of manager and above, researchers, supply chain employees, employed physicians, physician administrators and leaders, and employed advanced practice clinicians must complete a new conflict of interest disclosure annually. Disclosures of perceived, potential or actual conflicts involving financial interests are forwarded to the Conflicts of Interest Review Committee ("C-CIRC") or Legal Services Group for review depending on the position of the person involved. The C-CIRC reviews COI questionnaires containing disclosures of perceived or possible conflicts for employees at a level of manager or above, supply chain employees, researchers and physicians, physician administrators and leaders, and advanced practice clinicians (both employed and non-employed). In the determination of a conflict, a COI management plan will be developed for that person. With respect to those audiences for which the C-CIRC has review responsibility, the C-CIRC will facilitate development of any such conflict of interest management plan in collaboration with local CRP staff. A designated CHI Entity staff will be responsible for monitoring the COI management plan and for documenting monitoring activities. At its sole discretion, a CHI Entity may reject a Person's request to enter into the relationship in question, or require the relationship be sufficiently altered to avoid a potential COI. If the C-CIRC determines that there is a potential or actual conflict of interest that does not currently have appropriate controls to address the conflict of interest, it may recommend that the disclosing person be allowed to participate in the activity or transaction subject to restrictions as outlined in the COI management plan. If a Person does not agree with a determination made by the C-CIRC, its interpretation of the Policy or Addenda, or seeks an exemption or exception, the following steps should be followed. The Employee disputing the review decision, interpretation of the Policy, or seeking exemption or exception must present the matter to the Employee's immediate direct manager or supervisor for review and determination. If the Employee and the manager do not agree with the review decision, interpretation of the Policy, or seek exemption or exception, the manager shall consult with the manager's Vice President (or higher if the manager is a Vice President) to reach a determination. If the matter remains unresolved, it shall be referred to the CHI Vice President of Human Resources and the CHI Corporate Responsibility Officer. If they are unable to reach agreement, the matter shall be referred to the CHI General Counsel, whose decision shall be final. Reviews and determinations involving board and board committee members and corporate officers will be the responsibility of the board, board executive committee, or board chair, with guidance from the Legal Services Group (LSG). Annual COI disclosures of all trustee and corporate officers will be reviewed by the CHI Senior Vice President, Legal Services, and General Counsel or his or her designee who will report potential conflicts to the applicable Board Chair. The Board Chair or designee shall make such further investigation of any conflict of interest disclosures as he or she may deem appropriate. If the conflict involves the Board Chair, the Vice Chair will assume the Chair's role. Based on review and evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances, the Board Chair will make an initial determination as to whether a conflict of interest exists and whether, pursuant to the COI Policy, review and approval or other action by the Board is required. A written record of the Board Chair's determination, including relevant facts and circumstances, will be made. The Board Chair shall then make an appropriate report to the Executive Committee of the Board concerning such review, evaluation and determination. If a difference of opinion exists between the Board Chair and another Trustee as to whether the facts and circumstances of a given situation constitute a conflict of interest or whether Board review and approval or other action is required within the COI Policy, the matter shall be submitted to the Board's Executive Committee, which shall make a final determination as to the matter presented. Such determination, including relevant facts and circumstances, will be reflected in the Executive Committee minutes and will be reported to the Board. When any conflict of interest is considered by the board, the trustee or corporate officer, as appropriate, must disclose all of the material facts to the Board. The trustee shall not vote and the trustee or corporate officer shall not use his or her personal influence on the matter. The trustee or corporate officer shall be excused from the meeting during discussion and vote on the conflict of interest. In reviewing such transactions between CHI or CHI Entities and vendors or other contractors who are, or are affiliated with, Trustees or Corporate Officers, the Board will act as it would in reviewing transactions with unrelated third parties. The transaction is not be approved unless the Board determines that the transaction is fair to CHI or the CHI Entity. The Board must approve the transaction by a majority of the Trustees on the Board, without counting the vote of any individual who has an interest in the transaction. All determinations of conflicts of interest are reported as required by law, regulations, and CHI policy. |
