Form and Line Reference Explanation
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 5 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison. The Healthy Dane Collaborative recognizes that a community health improvement plan starts with a deep understanding of the issues affecting our health and the assets available to use to improve health related outcomes. The HDC developed a 32- question community perception survey, which can be found starting on page 26 of the CHNA. The survey was distributed to a variety of social service and not-for-profit agencies, listed on page 20 of the CHNA, as well as these organization's clients and networks. The survey was also sent to county school districts and city and county governments. In addition to the community perception survey, focus groups were conducted with key stakeholders, community partners and advocates. These focus groups utilized a data placemat strategy, which engages participants and guides discussion around specific topics with thematically grouped data using charts, graphs, tables and quotes in an easy-to-understand format. Additional information on the process of gathering input from persons who represent the broad interests of the community served can be found starting on page 8 of the CHNA.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 6a Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison. Three other hospital organizations participated in the Healthy Dane Collaborative: Meriter - UnityPoint Health, Stoughton Hospital, and University of Wisconsin hospitals and clinics.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 6b Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison. Other participants in the CHNA process included: Public Health Madison, Dane County Health Council, and the Group Health Cooperative of South Central Wisconsin. Members of the Dane County Health Council include: Access Community Health Centers, Dane County Human Services, Dean Health System, Madison Metropolitan School District, United Way of Dane County, University of Wisconsin Medical Foundation, and Wisconsin Alliance for Women's Health.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison. SSM Health's mission statement is "Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God." During 2015, in collaboration with our community partners, SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison conducted a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) and developed a strategic implementation plan for the 2016-2018 cycle. The strategic priorities we will address over the next three years include: mental health, chronic disease, and maternal/child health. The SSM Health Wisconsin Regional Board approved this CHNA on November 3, 2015. SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison last conducted a CHNA in 2012. The strategic priorities of the community benefit plan as identified in the 2013-2015 community health needs assessment (CHNA) are: Asthma/COPD, poor birth outcomes, and diabetes. Our needs assessment was completed October 19, 2012 and adopted as part of our strategic plan on December 5, 2012. Goals and objectives were established to change behavior, provide metrics to measure change, and to impact the overall health of those we serve. All of the community benefit activities are designed to meet the needs identified in the CHNA. The SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison 2013- 2015 CHNA indicated Asthma continues to negatively affect the quality of life for those who are unable to afford ongoing optimal medical care or medications. In 2011 there were 19,584 ED visits for asthma in WI costing over 24.5 million. Children had the highest ED visit rates (74.2 visits per 10,000). In 2009-2011 rates of asthma ED visits and hospitalizations in the Madison population were three times greater than rates in the WI general population. Nearly 56 percent of children and 39 percent of adults with asthma reported missing school/work days due to asthma. The following goals were achieved in 2015 to address asthma: * Goal: Decrease the number of asthma related emergency room visits to St Mary's Hospital by 5% from 514 in 2014 to 490 in 2015, 376 asthma related visits to the emergency room in 2015. * Goal: Reduce the number of emergency room-direct referrals from the St Mary's Asthma clinic from 3 in 2014 to 0 in 2015, incurred no emergency room-direct referrals from St Mary's Hospital Asthma Clinic in 2015. The SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison 2013 - 2015 CHNA indicated infant mortality, specifically the disparities in birth outcomes between white and African- American infants as one of the most critical problems facing Wisconsin. As recently as 2010 Wisconsin's infant mortality rate among African-Americans was documented as fifth worst in the nation. In 2011-2012, there were over 12,000 births in Dane County. Fifty-eight infants died before their first birthday and another sixty-four pregnancies resulted in stillbirth (i.e., fetal death at equal to or greater than 20 weeks gestation or a birth weight of 350 grams). In Dane County, there is on average an infant death or stillbirth event every six days. St. Mary's Hospital will enhance strategies including direct service, education and prevention to assure women and their babies have available resources for a healthy pregnancy. The following goals were achieved in 2015 to address poor birth outcomes: * Goal: Decrease the number of babies born at St Mary's with drug addiction by 5% from 25 in 2014 to 22 in 2015, 39 babies born at St Mary's with drug addictions. * Goal: Decrease the number of babies born at low birthweight in Dane County by 5% from 404 in 2014 to 384 in 2015, data will be available in early 2016. The SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison 2013 - 2015 CHNA indicated Chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, obesity and arthritis are among the most common, costly and preventable of all health problems. Over 475,000 adults and 4,500 children in WI have a diabetes diagnosis. In 2010 there were 6,908 hospital discharges where diabetes was listed as the principal diagnosis and 92,780 where diabetes was listed as any diagnosis, resulting in $2.55 billion in diabetes hospitalization charges. It is estimated that in Dane County between 7-9% of the population have a diabetes diagnosis. St Mary's Hospital will enhance strategies to increase awareness, education, prevention and early intervention focusing on high-risk children and adults. The following goals were achieved in 2015 to address diabetes: * Goal: Reduce the number of diabetes-related emergency room visits among children less than 18 years of age by 10% from 29 in 2014 to 25 in 2015, measured only 16 qualifying emergency room visits. * Goal: Reduce the number of Boys and Girls Club members identified as overweight or obese (BMI greater than 30) by 5%, data will be available after August 2016. Prior to the review of the data collected by the CHNA process, a list of criteria was developed to aid in the selection of priority areas. During the data-review process, attention was directed to health issues that met any of these criteria. After review and consideration of data, the collaborative identified six health issues that showed evidence of need in the community. Additional information concerning this process can be found on pages 9 and 10 of the CHNA. With the top six community-specific health issues identified, the collaborative evaluated each issue utilizing a prioritization process which included input from community members to determine the top community health needs. The CHNA-Identified health needs process can be found on pages 45, 46 and Appendix F of the 2012 CHNA.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 5 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - SSM Health St. Clare Hospital - Baraboo. Along with collecting and analyzing data from the Sauk County Health and Wellness Coalition survey and online data sources, SSM Health St. Clare Hospital - Baraboo held two key informant meetings with stakeholders representing the broad interests of the hospital's community. The groups included public health officials and subject matter experts, local law enforcement, as well as St. Clare-affiliated clinicians, administrators and staff. The questions asked were related to general community issues and concerns, issues in the community that promote poor health, issues related to health care access and perceptions of local community health care. Stakeholder rankings of health priorities were taken into consideration to choose the final top three priorities. Additional information on the process of gathering input from persons who represent the broad interests of the community served can be found starting on page 8 of the CHNA.

Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - SSM Health St. Clare Hospital - Baraboo. SSM Health's mission statement is "Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God." During 2015, in collaboration with our community partners, SSM Health St. Clare Hospital - Baraboo conducted a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) and developed a strategic implementation plan for the 2016-2018 cycle. The strategic priorities we will address over the next three years include: mental health, chronic disease, and obesity. The SSM Health Wisconsin Regional Board approved this CHNA on November 3, 2015. SSM Health St. Clare Hospital - Baraboo last conducted a CHNA in 2012. The strategic priorities of the community benefit plan as identified in the 2013-2015 community health needs assessment (CHNA) are: obesity, dental health, and access to care. Our needs assessment was completed November 1, 2012 and adopted as part of our strategic plan on December 15, 2012. Goals and objectives were established to change behavior, provide metrics to measure change, and to impact the overall health of those we serve. All of the community benefit activities are designed to meet the needs identified in the CHNA. The SSM Health St. Clare Hospital - Baraboo 2013- 2015 CHNA indicated the impact of eating a healthful diet and being physically active cannot be understated. High rates of obesity, poor diets and insufficient exercise are experienced throughout the community among all age groups, and especially in low-income and minority populations. These issues are exacerbated by environment influences, such as readily available fast-food and a lack of affordable athletic facilities, especially ones that can be used in winter. St Clare Hospital will support community programs providing weight loss support and nutritional education; implement wellness initiatives and area-wide healthy eating initiatives with local providers; implement a childhood fitness program in collaboration with local school districts; craft and implement area-wide nutrition programs linked to local providers; provide healthy produce options at local food pantries; and implement employee wellness initiatives. The following goals were achieved in 2015 to address obesity: * Goal: Decrease the percentage of overweight or obese adults (BMI of at least 30) in Sauk County from 68% in 2014 to 65% in 2015, achieved percentage of 60.2%. The SSM Health St. Clare Hospital - Baraboo 2013 - 2015 CHNA indicated oral diseases ranging from dental cavities to oral cancers cause pain and disability for millions of Americans. In Sauk and Columbia Counties, affordable and accessible dental health services are needed, particularly for Medicaid patients and the underinsured. St Clare Hospital will support dental access and dental hygiene initiatives for school-age children and underserved households through programs including Seal-A-Smile to elementary grades in Baraboo/Dells school districts; provide dental care packs to 4,000 students in Baraboo/Dells school districts; and administer dental care packages to food pantries in Dells and Baraboo communities. The following goals were achieved in 2015 to address dental health: * Goal: Reduce the percentage of dental visits to St Clare Hospital emergency or urgent care from 1.8% in 2014 to 1.75% in 2015, 2.7% of emergency room or urgent care visits were dental health issued-related. The SSM Health St. Clare Hospital - Baraboo 2013 - 2015 CHNA indicated Economic factors play a determining role in the health status of a community. Increased financial hardship and unemployment in the service area has resulted in uninsurance/underinsurance, as well as food, housing and utilities insecurities, particularly for low-income and minority populations. Cost and fear of taking off work to visit a physician have led to delays in care and either inappropriate or no adherence to medications. St Clare Hospital will work to create access to care in collaboration with Native American Ho-Chunk Nation; provide parish nursing support for health screenings, education, and preventative care; and provide assistance to underserved minority populations to decrease health disparities. The following goals were achieved in 2015 to address access to care: * Goal: Increase Sauk County's clinical care ranking from 54/72 in 2014 to 42/72 in 2015, ranking in 2015 was 42/72. Based on an analysis of the primary data collected, the CHNA identified the priority community health needs of the hospital's service area. A complete list of identified needs listed by category in alphabetical order can be found on pages 5 and 6 of the CHNA. St Clare Hospital then applied a ranking methodology to help prioritize the community health needs identified by the assessment. Additional information on the prioritization process and criteria can be found on pages A-2 and A-3 of the 2012 CHNA.

Form and Line Reference Explanation
Schedule H, Part I, Line 3b Eligibility for Discounted Care Services eligible under the financial assistance policy will be made available to the patient on a sliding fee scale, in accordance with financial need, as determined in reference to Federal Poverty Levels (FPL) in effect at the time of the determination. The basis for the amounts the hospital will charge patients qualifying for financial assistance is as follows: Patients whose family income is above 200% but not more than 400% of the FPL are eligible to receive discounted services at amounts no greater than the amounts generally billed to the hospital's commercially insured or Medicare patients.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 3c Discounted Care Exceptions Patients whose family income exceeds 400% of the FPL may be eligible to receive discounted rates on a case-by-case basis based on their specific circumstances, such as catastrophic illness or medical indigence, at the discretion of the hospital; however the discounted rates shall not be greater than the amounts generally billed to commercially insured [or Medicare] patients. In such cases, other factors may be considered in determining their eligibility for discounted or free services, including: * Bank accounts, investments and other assets * Employment status and earning capacity * Amount and frequency of bills for health care services * Other financial obligations and expenses * Generally, financial responsibility will be no more than 25% of gross family income. The hospital may utilize predictive analytical software or other criteria to assist in making a determination of financial assistance eligibility in situations where the patient qualifies for financial assistance but has not provided the necessary documentation to make a determination. This process is called "presumptive eligibility."
Schedule H, Part I, Line 6a Community Benefit Annual Report SSM Health Care of Wisconsin, Inc. is part of the integrated health system known as SSM Health. In an effort to strengthen its community benefit program, SSM Health plans for, measures, and communicates community benefits provided to persons who are low income, the unpaid costs of public programs and other activities that respond to community need, improve community health, or reach out to low income and vulnerable persons.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistance Financial Assistance Methodology: The cost of financial assistance is calculated in compliance with catholic health association (CHA) guidelines. A cost to charge ratio calculated using the IRS worksheet 2, ratio of patient care cost to charges, was used to compute financial assistance at cost. This is the ratio of total adjusted operating expense to total gross patient revenue. The gross revenue amount is a gross amount - prior to contractual adjustments and bad debts. Both gross revenue and costs are based on charges at date/time of service. Unreimbursed Medicaid Costing Methodology: The cost of unreimbursed Medicaid is calculated in compliance with Catholic Health Association (CHA) guidelines. A cost to charge ratio calculated utilizing IRS Worksheet 2, Ratio of patient care cost to charges, was used to compute unreimbursed Medicaid costs. This is the ratio of total adjusted operating expenses to total gross patient revenue. The gross revenue amount is gross amount - prior to contractual adjustments and bad debts. Both gross revenue and costs are based on charges at date/time of service. Community health improvement services and community benefit operations costing methodology: The costs for these programs were derived from the actual costs incurred in these areas. Subsidized health services costing methodology: The expenditures are determined based on actual invoices or dollar amounts spent and charged to these departments, reduced by any grant revenues restricted for these services, if any. Research costing methodology: Research expenses were taken from the income and expense statements for the research departments, derived from the accounting system. Cash and In-Kind contributions to community groups costing methodology: Contribution expenditures are based on actual invoices that were captured and reported for this program, derived from the accounting system.

Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense Methodology SSM Health Care of Wisconsin, Inc. did not make an estimate of the organization's bad debt attributable to patients eligible under the organization's financial assistance policy.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote SSM Health Care of Wisconsin, Inc. is part of the SSM Health consolidated audit. The footnote that references bad debt expense in the December 31, 2015 consolidated audit is contained on page 17 and 18 of the attached financial statements.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs The cost of providing care to Medicare eligible patients is greater than the reimbursement that Medicare allows on the Medicare cost report. SSM Health Care of Wisconsin, Inc. considers this shortfall as a component of community benefit because the reimbursement is not negotiated and services are provided regardless of the patients' ability to pay. The Medicare costs reported on Line 6 were obtained from the 2015 Medicare cost report.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance SSM Health Care of Wisconsin, Inc. has established a written credit and collection policy and procedures. The billing and collection policies and practices reflect the mission and values of SSM Health, including our special concern for people who are poor and vulnerable. SSM Health Care of Wisconsin embraces its responsibility to serve the communities in which it participates by establishing sound business practices. SSM Health Care of Wisconsin's billing and collection practices will be fairly and consistently applied. All staff and vendors are expected to treat all patients consistently and fairly regardless of their ability to pay. They respond to patients in a prompt and courteous manner regarding any questions about their bills and provide notification of the availability of financial assistance. All uninsured patients will be provided a standard discount for medically necessary inpatient and outpatient services, including services provided at off-campus outpatient sites. The hospital determined the amount of the discount based on the local managed care market, applicable statutory requirements and other relevant local circumstances. The rate must be no less than the lowest effective discount rate and no greater than the highest effective discount rate for the current managed care contracts of the hospital. Uninsured patients may also qualify for an additional discount based upon financial need under the system financial assistance policy. All accounts due from the patient will receive a statement after discharge or after final adjudication from patient's insurance. Generally the patient will receive 4 months (120 days) of in-house collection efforts (including early out vendors) and 12 months of bad debt collection efforts. The hospital will make Reasonable Efforts to determine FAP eligibility including: 1. The financial assistance summary will be included with each billing statement 2. Extraordinary Collection Activity (ECAs) may not occur until bad debt placement and only after the expiration of the notification period. 3. ECAs must be suspended if a guarantor submits a FAP application during the application period. 4. Reasonable measures must be taken to reverse ECAs if the application is approved which may include refunding any payments made in excess of amounts owed as an FAP-eligible individual. 5. Bad Debt vendors will gain written approval from SSM prior to engaging in ECAs. SSM will review the accounts and verify satisfactory completion of reasonable efforts during the notification and application period. A waiver is not considered reasonable efforts. Obtaining a signed waiver that an individual does not wish to apply for FAP assistance or receive FAP application information will not meet the requirement to make "reasonable efforts" to determine whether the individual is FAP-eligible before engaging in ECAs. All outside collection agencies must comply with state and federal laws, comply with the association of credit and collection professional's code of ethics and professional responsibility and comply with SSM Health Care of Wisconsin's collection and financial assistance policies.

Schedule H, Part VI, Line 2 Needs assessment SSM Health (SSM) participates in Community Benefit according to our vision, Through our participation in the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, communities, especially those that are economically, physically, and socially marginalized, will experience improved health in mind, body, spirit and environment. In the tradition of our founders, the Franciscan Sisters of Mary, caring for those in greatest need remains our organizational priority. Today our System Board monitors Community Benefit efforts, and views achievement of our vision as a primary responsibility. The purpose of SSM's Community Benefit program is to assess and address community health needs. Making our communities healthier in measurable ways is always our goal. To fulfill this commitment, SSM's Community Benefit is divided into two parts: 1) Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), and 2) Community Benefit Inventory for Social Accountability (CBISA). The CHNA is an assessment and prioritization of community health needs and the adoption and implementation of strategies to address those needs. A CHNA is conduced every three years by each hospital according to the following steps: * Assess and prioritize community health needs: Gather CHNA data from secondary sources; obtain input from stakeholders representing the broad interests of the community through interviews and focus groups; use data to select top health priorities; and complete written CHNA. * Develop, adopt, and implement strategies to address top-health priorities: Establish strategies to address priorities; complete Strategic Implementation Plan; obtain Regional/Divisional Board approval; and integrate strategies into operational plan. * Make CHNA widely available to the public: Publish CHNA and summary document on hospital's website. * Monitor, track, and report progress on top health priorities: Collect data and evaluate progress; report to Regional/Divisional Board every six months and System Board every year; share findings with community stakeholders; and send results to finance for submission to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). CBISA is the gathering, collecting, and reporting of all data relating to community benefit activities and programs across the System. A CBISA is conducted every year by each hospital according to the following steps: * Collect and enter data: Send out emails reminding staff to submit activities; enter data into Lyon; and run reports to share with leaders. * Finalize and report on prior year: Enter all prior year data into Lyon by January 31; and communicate final prior year figures to IRS, System Board, and the community. System Office staff and leaders oversee and monitor SSM's Community Benefit Program, and ensure reporting is in compliance with IRS regulations. In collaboration with community stakeholders and partner organizations, all hospital CHNAs were completed, approved, and integrated into the organization's strategic plan. We continue to monitor and assess the progress of our local efforts in the spirit of caring for others and improving community health.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 3 Patient education of eligibility for assistance All SSMH facilities will strive to provide exceptional health care services to all persons in need regardless of their ability to pay. All billing and collection policies reflect the mission and values of SSMH, including our special concern for people who are poor and vulnerable. SSMH facilities offer discounts for hospital services to all uninsured persons. Self-pay discounts apply to everyone who does not have health insurance, no matter their ability to pay. SSMH applies its charity care policies fairly and consistently. Each person is treated as an individual with specific needs for assistance without regard to payment. SSMH embraces its responsibility to serve the communities in which we participate by establishing sound business practices. Charity care is provided to patients based on a sliding scale for household incomes up to four times the federal poverty level. Patients whose household income is no more than two times the federal poverty level are eligible for free hospital services. In addition, an exception to the sliding scale is provided for a patient's balance due if the amount is too large to be reasonably paid through an installment plan over four years given the family income and expenses. Each entity providing medical service shall provide information to the public regarding its charity care policies and the qualification requirements for each of its facilities. When standard system notices and communication regarding charity care are available, these must be used. Modifications to the standard may be made to comply with state and local laws, as well as reflect culturally sensitive terminology for the policy. All notices are easy to understand by the general public, culturally appropriate and available in those languages that are prevalent in the community. They provide information about: * The patient's responsibility for payment, * The availability of financial assistance from public programs and entity charity care and payment arrangements, * The entity's charity policy and application process, and * Who to contact to get additional information or financial counseling. The following types of notices to the public are provided: * Signs in the emergency department, outpatient and inpatient registration and public waiting areas. * Brochures or fliers provided at time of registration and available in the financial counseling areas. * Notices sent with or on patient bills or communications sent to patients and guarantors related to medical services. * Applications provided to uninsured patients at the time of registration. The application for charity care, together with any instructions, must clearly state the policies regarding charity care, including excluded services, eligibility criteria and documentation requirements. Information about the entity's charity policies is also provided to public agencies.

Return Reference Explanation
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a Description of Program Service Briefly describe the corporation's mission: Since it was founded in 1872 by Catholic sisters, SSM Health (SSMH) has existed to meet the health needs of the communities it serves. SSMH is a Catholic, not-for-profit health system serving the comprehensive health needs of communities across the Midwest through one of the largest integrated delivery systems in the nation. With care delivery sites in Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin, SSMH includes 19 acute care hospitals, one children's hospital, more than 60 outpatient care sites, a pharmacy benefit company, an insurance company, two long-term care facilities, comprehensive home care and hospice services, a technology company, and two Accountable Care Organizations. The health system employs more than 31,000 people and is affiliated with more than 8,500 physicians making it one of the largest employers in every community it serves. SSMH is sponsored by SSM Health Ministries, an independent 6- member body comprised of three Franciscan Sisters of Mary and three lay people who collectively hold certain reserved powers over SSMH. In the tradition of its founding sisters, SSMH strives to fulfill its mission by providing exceptional health care to everyone who comes to its hospitals, regardless of their ability to pay. About SSM Health Care of Wisconsin: SSM Health Care of Wisconsin provides health care services at three wholly- owned acute care hospitals, St. Mary's Hospital in Madison, St. Clare Hospital in Baraboo and St. Mary's Janesville Hospital in Janesville, as well as at two nursing homes - St. Mary's Care Center in Madison and St. Clare Meadows in Baraboo. SSM Health Care of Wisconsin, including its three wholly owned hospitals and two nursing homes, earned Wisconsin's highest recognition of quality business practices in 2013: the Excellence Level of the Wisconsin Forward Award. The honor remains in effect for five years. SSM Health Care of Wisconsin, in partnership with Dean Clinic, also earned recognition as a finalist for OrthoServiceLine.com's Ortho Transformation Award. The award highlighted the Steady Strides Joint Replacement Program which is available at all three acute care hospitals. St. Mary's is a 440-bed tertiary referral hospital offering inpatient and outpatient treatment and diagnostic services in primary care and nearly all specialties. The campus includes an outpatient surgery center and an employee child care center. St. Mary's also operates an off-site Adult Day Health Center, is part-owner of a home health care organization, and is affiliated with the St. Mary's Care Center (skilled nursing facility) on Madison's southwest side. St. Mary's Hospital in partnership with Dean Clinic has chosen to participate in a Medicare Accountable Care Organization Program. St. Mary's Hospital offers a full range of inpatient and outpatient treatment and diagnostic services in primary care and nearly all specialties. St. Mary's also attained an elite status in 2011 when it was designated as a Magnet hospital for the third time in a row. Less than 1% of the nation's 6,000 hospitals have done the same. Magnet hospitals are considered "the gold standard" of nursing. Their emphasis on quality, innovation and collaboration tends to lead to better outcomes, high patient satisfaction and a more stable workforce. St. Clare Hospital offers acute care services as well as a wide range of other services including chemical dependency treatment and hemodialysis. St. Clare also offers cardiac rehabilitation, orthopedics, women's services, and older adult services and senior living. St. Clare Meadows Care Center, an affiliate of St. Clare Hospital, provides a variety of healthcare and living options for the elderly of the greater Baraboo and Sauk County area. The 102-bed Medicare and Medicaid skilled nursing facility providing 24 hour nursing care for temporary rehabilitation care or permanent care basis in an atmosphere that celebrates the needs of the individual. St. Mary's Janesville Hospital operates a 50-bed hospital and an adjacent physicians' office complex. The hospital serves its community through emergency services, inpatient and outpatient services, a sleep lab, radiology, cardiology rehabilitation, and palliative care consulting. Built in 2012, the medical campus provides all private rooms, electronic health records, and a state-of-the-art emergency department. Describe the organization's approach to providing community benefit: SSM Health (SSM) participates in Community Benefit according to our vision, Through our participation in the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, communities, especially those that are economically, physically, and socially marginalized, will experience improved health in mind, body, spirit and environment. In the tradition of our founders, the Franciscan Sisters of Mary, caring for those in greatest need remains our organizational priority. Today our System Board monitors Community Benefit efforts, and views achievement of our vision as a primary responsibility. The purpose of SSM's Community Benefit program is to assess and address community health needs. Making our communities healthier in measurable ways is always the goal. To fulfill this commitment, SSM's Community Benefit is divided into two parts: 1) Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), and 2) Community Benefit Inventory for Social Accountability (CBISA). First, CHNA is the assessment and prioritization of community health needs and the adoption and implementation of strategies to address those needs. A CHNA is conduced every three years by each hospital according to the following steps: - Assess and prioritize community health needs: Gather CHNA data from secondary sources; obtain input from stakeholders representing the broad interests of the community through interviews and focus groups; use data to select top health priorities; and complete written CHNA. - Develop, adopt, and implement strategies to address top-health priorities: Establish strategies to address priorities; complete Strategic Implementation Plan; obtain Regional/Divisional Board approval; and integrate strategies into operational plan. - Make CHNA widely available to the public: Publish CHNA and summary document on hospital's website. - Monitor, track, and report progress on top health priorities: Kick-off meeting conducted and updated toolkit distributed; and periodic meetings scheduled to evaluate and monitor progress. Data collected and report made to Regional/ Divisional Board every six months and System Board every year; share findings with community stakeholders; and send results to finance for submission to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Next, CBISA is the gathering, collecting, and reporting of all data relating to community benefit activities and programs across the System. A CBISA is conducted every year by each hospital according to the following steps: - Collect and enter data: Kick-off meeting conducted and updated toolkit distributed; new staff complete Lyon web-based course; and periodic meetings scheduled to evaluate and monitor progress. Emails sent reminding staff to submit activities; occurences entered into Lyon; and reports are produced and shared with leaders. - Finalize and report on prior year: All prior year data entered into Lyon by January 31; and communicate final prior year figures to IRS, System Board, and the community. System Office staff and leaders oversee and monitor SSM's Community Benefit Program, and ensure reporting is in compliance with IRS regulations. In collaboration with community stakeholders and partner organizations, all hospital CHNAs were completed, approved, and integrated into the organization's strategic plan. We continue to monitor and assess the progress of our local efforts in the spirit of caring for others and improving community health. Description of CHNA community benefit programs: For more information on the CHNA community benefit programs provided by SSM Health Care of Wisconsin, please see Schedule H, Part V.

The community initiatives build on the strengths of our communities and systems to improve the quality of life and to create a sense of hope. Community Benefit initiatives build community capacity and individual empowerment through community organizing, leadership development, partnerships, and coalition building. Our Community Health programs provide compassionate and competent care while they promote health improvement by reaching directly into the community to ensure that low-income and under-served persons can access health care services. Focusing on a broad definition of health, SSM Health Care of Wisconsin's hospitals, clinics and programs provide medical and mental health services, health education, health management, prevention, referrals, insurance enrollment and in-home primary care services and support, while fostering collaboration and incorporating Community Benefit strategies.
