| COMMUNITY BENEFITS OVERVIEW | Temple University Health System (TUHS), as the sole member of its affiliated hospitals and physician practices, provides access to facilities, programs, and other resources to carry out a broad array of community services. Through the employees and physicians of Temple University Hospital, Fox Chase Cancer Center, Jeanes Hospital, our faculty and community based Physician practices, we provide comprehensive services to improve the health and quality of living in North Philadelphia and our Southeast Pennsylvania region. TUHS is dedicated to ensuring access to comprehensive primary and specialty quality patient care through population health, linked to academic excellence in medical education and research. Our outreach services are critically important in the diverse, economically challenged neighborhoods surrounding our hospitals, where about 81% of our patients are covered by government programs, including about 42% by Medicare and 39% by Medicaid. TUHS hospitals provide indispensable health care services to residents of Philadelphia, which is the largest city in America without a public hospital. In fact, among Pennsylvania's full-service safety-net providers, Temple University Hospital serves the greatest volume and highest percentage of patients covered by Medicaid. As the chief academic teaching hospital of the Lewis Katz School of Medicine of Temple University, Temple University Hospital (TUH) is a 722-bed non-profit acute care hospital that provides a comprehensive range of medical services to its low-income communities, and a broad spectrum of secondary, tertiary, and quaternary care to patients throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania and beyond. TUH is accredited as an Adult Level 1 Trauma Center by the Pennsylvania Trauma Systems Foundation. In addition to its main campus in North Philadelphia, TUH includes its Episcopal and Northeastern campuses, both of which are in economically distressed areas within three miles of the TUH main and medical school campus. As our chief clinical teaching site, TUH is staffed by over 400 physicians of Temple University Physicians, our faculty-based practice plan, as well as physician scientists from our affiliated Fox Chase Cancer Center and our community-based Temple Physicians, Inc. Temple physicians represent 17 academic departments including subspecialties in emergency medicine, oncology, gastroenterology, obstetrics, gynecology, orthopedics, neurosurgery, neurology, general and specialty surgery and psychiatry. Temple University Hospital's Episcopal Campus provides a recovery-oriented behavioral health treatment program, offering a welcoming approach and hope for those whose lives have been affected by mental illness and co-occurring disorders. It serves adults, age 18 or older, experiencing severe psychiatric symptoms that markedly impair their capacity to function adequately within the community. Many are diagnosed with psychiatric plus one or more substance/alcohol disorders. Almost half have diagnoses of hypertension and/or diabetes. Many have multiple co-existing medical illnesses. Temple University Hospital serves as a critical access point for vital public health services. Last year we handled more than 139,000 patients in our Emergency Department; 9,700 patients in our Psychiatric Crisis Response Center; 2,400 discharges from our inpatient Behavioral Health unit; 400 victims of gun and stab violence in our Trauma Unit, the highest number in Pennsylvania; and more than 280 patients in our Burn Center. We delivered about 2,900 babies, of whom 89% were covered by Medicaid. Temple physicians also staff important clinics that address major public health concerns, such as the Comprehensive Neuroaids Center at Temple University, which is dedicated to improving the public health impact of bench-to clinic research associated with HIV-induced neurological diseases and cognitive disorders. Temple's nationally renowned physicians offer state of the art treatment options for patients with complex medical problems, some of whom were previously considered untreatable. Using sophisticated technologies and personalized treatments, Temple physicians are working to alter the course of serious disease. In over a dozen research centers, our faculty is speeding the transformation of fundamental scientific discoveries into practical therapies that may one day dramatically improve human health. The Fox Chase-Temple Bone Marrow Transplant Program, a formal affiliation between Fox Chase Cancer Center and TUH, is an example of this type of transformative medicine. Since its inception in 1988, the program has performed over 1,500 transplants, and has participated in countless research studies to promote life-saving treatment modalities. In addition to the academic mission, The Temple Center for Population Health, LLC, (TCPH) promotes and supports the population health efforts of TUH and North Philadelphia. We align our efforts with the goals of the United States Department of Health and Human Services' three-part aim of achieving better care for patients, better health for our communities, and lower costs through health care system improvement. With respect to prevention, education and outreach related to cancer, we are especially proud of the services provided through Fox Chase Cancer Center. As a National Cancer Institute Comprehensive Cancer Center, Fox Chase is one of only 47 centers in the country to qualify for this designation. Its Office of Health Communications and Disparities addresses the cancer needs of its geographically, racially and ethnically diverse population through individual contact, group teaching and other modes to teach about cancer and screenings. Temple University Health System takes great pride in the broad array of services it provides to the community. Below is a summary of some of the programs and activities conducted this year to help advance the wellness and improve the quality of life in our communities. PROVIDING CRITICAL SOCIAL RESOURCES. Temple connected more than 13,000 people with community-based social services, including free transportation services, legal services, and clothing to destitute patients upon discharge, and free pharmaceuticals, co-pays and medical supplies that provide our most vulnerable patients with the resources they need to help them heal after discharge. REACHING OUT TO THE COMMUNITY. Our hospitals reached more than 100,000 people, providing free health screenings; support groups for patients and families dealing with alcoholism, narcotics abuse, behavioral health disorders, cancer and other diseases; providing free immunization for flu in cooperation with the City Health Department; offering education on childbirth, mental health, burn prevention, diabetes care, stroke awareness, healthy diet and exercise, and other topics; and providing many other outreach activities. In collaboration with local food banks, public schools, and community organizations, we also conduct numerous food, new clothing, and school supply drives to benefit children and adults living in our impoverished neighborhoods. CONNECTING PATIENTS WITH FINANCIAL RESOURCES. Temple employs 37 Financial Counselors dedicated to helping uninsured and under-insured patients obtain medical coverage. This team processes about 6,000 applications annually. ENSURING SAFE SLEEP AND A HEALTHY START FOR MOMS AND NEWBORNS. Our Sleep Awareness Family Education at Temple (SAFE-T) educates new moms and families about safe infant sleep through one-on-one education in the hospital and a certificate upon discharge. Families receive a Safe Sleeper kit complete with a sleep-safe baby box, layette items such as fleece and cotton clothing, sheets and blanket, a baby book, (English and Spanish language), diapers, a thermometer, nasal aspirator, baby wash, smoke detectors (provided by the Philadelphia Fire Department) and educational materials and resource referral for cribs, car seats and other necessities. During this first year of operation, the program served more than 2,000 caregivers and newborn infants. COMBATTING GUN VIOLENCE. Philadelphia leads the nation's 10 largest cities in homicides per capita. Three police districts with the highest number of shootings fall within our footprint. Temple treats more than 400 victims of penetrating wounds, the highest number in Pennsylvania. To address this epidemic, Temple's Cradle to Grave program works with at-risk youth to help break the cycle of gun violence. Cradle to Grave engaged 1,200 teens this year, and engaged more than 10,000 teens since the program began in 2006. Its Turning Point intervention program takes advantage of teachable moments that exist during the post-injury/pre-discharge period for survivors of violence. PREVAILING UPON CANCER. In furtherance of its mission, the Fox Chase Cancer Center operates several comprehensive screening and education programs, including the following: (1) Through our Community Cancer Screening Program we reach |
| IMMERSION IN SCIENCE HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAM | Through the Fox Chase Cancer Center Immersion Science High School Program, FCCC provided free education programming to diverse high school students from the target region. The Immersion Science program provides staged, comprehensive exposure of high school students to increase retention in biomedical careers and to provide direct instruction in laboratory techniques and scientific thinking. There is no cost to participate, and, in fact, summer salaries were provided to students in the Phase 3 segment of the program. In total nine (9) students were awarded full-time ($2,250) fellowships for research in Fox Chase laboratories. In 2016, 84 students from 20 Philadelphia area schools were trained in formal programs and an additional 200 students via our teacher training and camp programs. Our in-house program provides 16 students/year with undergraduate/graduate level training aimed at understanding how dietary components influence cancer signaling. In 2016, we published a paper in the peer-reviewed journal Biochemistry describing a project initiated during the program, with experiments executed by student program participants. Nine of these students continued their research as National Cancer Institute CURE summer fellows, with two students included on publications describing their work. Due to the success of this program in training diverse students, we expanded the program in 2016 to include an in-classroom component, where 68 students in two Title I high schools in the Philadelphia school district conducted bona fide cancer research. 48 of these students participated in a Symposium in June 2016 where they learned about careers in biomedicine and presented their work to ~100 Fox Chase Cancer Center scientists. This model will be expanded again in 2017 to reach over 200 students. In addition to these data-generating programs, the Immersion Science Program conducted three one-week camp programs in 2016, at Esperanza College, and Montgomery County Community College campuses in Blue Bell, PA and Pottstown, PA. This program enabled 48 students with limited access to science education to gain experience in modern laboratory techniques and develop new understanding of the impact of diet on cancer. In addition to student programs, Immersion Science trained three teachers ranging from middle school to high school in research. These teachers trained an additional 120 students in their classrooms, expanding the reach. All Immersion Science Programs are cost-free for the students to ensure equality of participants. FOSTERING VOLUNTEERISM. Members of the Health system's Board of Directors are comprised of dedicated volunteers from diverse backgrounds who offer expertise and govern the organization without compensation. Similarly, our executive team routinely participates in not-for-profit community health and social service organizations, as volunteer members of their boards-of-directors, and as participants in their outreach services. In addition, our hospitals engages volunteer community members to help advance its healthcare mission. Through our chaplaincy, family support, and other programs, and other programs of our hospitals, our volunteers served more than 57,000 people last year, helping to advance healing through their compassionate services to patients and their families. PROMOTING MULTI-CULTURAL SERVICES. With an annual investment of about $1.8 million, Temple University Health System has 327 language-proficient staff, all who have been credentialed through the Linguistic and Cultural Services Department. This includes 9 full-time medical interpreters, 2 medical interpreters in leadership roles, 23 active dual-role interpreters, 134 language proficient physicians, 21 RNs, 1 social worker, and 138 other language proficient bi-lingual staff. EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS AND RESEARCH. This program helps ensure our staff and hospital facilities are prepared to continue to provide safe, quality patient care even under the most austere conditions. We work on many levels, both inside and outside the Temple Health System, educating our communities about the importance of personal preparedness. Temple's Emergency Preparedness and Research Program is a critical link in the federal, state, and local disaster response plans. AMERICAN RED CROSS BLOOD DRIVES. We help ensure that our nation has a safe and reliable blood supply. Temple hospitals helped collect more than 500 pints of blood from employees, physicians and community members. PHILADELPHIA "MOM" PROGRAM. Temple's nursing staff and social workers assist the City in enrolling the new mothers shortly after delivering their infant and prior to discharge. New mothers and their babies from birth through the child's 6th birthday are connected with social, educational, and healthcare supports. INVESTING IN HEALTH PROFESSIONS EDUCATION. Temple provides a significant investment in education and training necessary to develop a professional healthcare workforce to benefit the broader community. This includes part of the cost of training more than 500 residents and fellows in over 45 teaching programs. Our residents and fellows are involved in various efforts that directly impact the community, including our Cradle to Grave program, our HIV clinic, and other community outreach initiatives. The exposure that our Residents receive caring for our diverse, low-income community helps Temple address health disparities while developing our nation's future physicians. Our investment in health professions also includes part of the cost of operating the Northeastern School of Nursing RN Diploma Program, providing an affordable option for diverse, community members who would not otherwise be able to attend traditional collegiate programs. REDUCING THE GOVERNMENT BURDEN. Temple's hospitals incurred about $74 million in net charity and under-reimbursed care expenses. In addition, Temple maintains strong affiliations with the City of Philadelphia, Federally Qualified Health Centers, and numerous community health organizations to help ensure access to care for our vulnerable population. SUBSIDIZING CRITICAL HEALTH SERVICES. Temple University Hospital invested about $34 million to subsidize critical health care services needed in our community. This includes support for our outpatient emergency, acute care and psychiatric services, as well as the inpatient psychiatric services on our Episcopal Campus. These physical and mental health services are critical to the health and welfare of our vulnerable communities. FUELING OUR REGION'S ECONOMIC ENGINE. The Health system employed nearly 8,000 people and paid about $850 million in salaries and benefits. As a critical employer for North Philadelphia, about 22% of our employees live within its immediate and adjacent zip codes. According to industry analysts, for every $1.00 of hospital employee compensation, about $.92 additional compensation is spent elsewhere in the community (about $780 million). For every job at Temple University Hospital, about 1.2 additional jobs are generated elsewhere (about 9,300 spin-off jobs). |
