| CORE FORM, PART III | Crozer-Keystone Health System ============================= Crozer-Keystone Health System is the parent entity of a tax-exempt integrated healthcare delivery system ("system"). The system ensures that it provides medically necessary healthcare services to all individuals in a non-discriminatory manner regardless of race, color, creed, sex, national origin, religion or ability to pay. Crozer-Chester Medical Center ("CCMC") and Delaware County Memorial Hospital ("DCMH") are affiliates within the system and both file their own separate form 990 which both include a supplemental schedule h, hospitals. For purposes of form 990, schedule h reporting and in accordance with current IRS rules and regulations, CCMC and DCMH both utilized the Catholic Health Association ("CHA") model when quantifying community benefit costs. Under the CHA methodology for quantifying community benefit costs CCMC's and DCMH's fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 net community benefit costs were approximately $53,502,777 and $10,647,022 or approximately 10.38% and 6.35%; respectively of each organizations total fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 expenses less provision for bad debt. The CHA methodology does not include medicare shortfalls and certain costs related to bad debt. Utilizing the model adopted by the American Hospital Association ("AHA"), which CCMC and DCMH both believe more clearly represents actual community benefit, when quantifying its estimated total community benefit costs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 would result in a significantly higher community benefit percentage. Under the AHA model, a hospital may include medicare shortfalls (the amount by which your costs exceed reimbursements), bad debt expense attributable to Charity care and community building activities. Under the AHA model for the 2014 form 990, CCMC and DCMH incurred net community benefit costs of approximately $75,022,144 and $18,853,915 which accounted for approximately 14.55% and 11.24%; respectively of each organizations total fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 expenses.

The most recent projection of residents living below the poverty level is 15.4%. Census data confirms major shifts in the demographics of the population. The Upper Darby area has the largest number of asian and west african immigrants in the region, and burgeoning mexican and south and central american populations (under-counted in the census).
