PATIENT HAD AHCCCS COVERAGE THE MONTH PRECEDING AND THE MONTH POST SERVICES; iii. INDIGENT BASED UPON RESIDENCY VALIDATION; iv. PATIENTS SERVICES ARE COVERED UNDER A GRANT THAT HAS EXHAUSTED FUNDING; v. PATIENT IS INCARCERATED AND THE CARE IS NOT THE FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY OF THE LOCAL, STATE, OR FEDERAL INSTITUTION; vi. PATIENT PROVIDES AN INVALID SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER; vii. AHCCCS COVERED PATIENTS WHO EXCEED MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE DAYS; viii. DECEASED; ix. BANKRUPTCY. b. PRESUMED FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS BY ENCOUNTER ONLY AND CANNOT BE USED FOR FUTURE BALANCES. c. EXCEPTION/FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE COMMITTEE i. PATIENTS/GUARANTORS REQUESTING EXCEPTIONS CAN APPEAL AN OUTCOME BY ESCALATION TO THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE COMMITTEE; ii. THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE COMMITTEE IS COMPRISED OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF REVENUE CYCLE, CONTROLLER, DIRECTOR OF PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICES, AND CLINICAL DEPARTMENT DIRECTOR FOR THE AFFECTED AREAS OF CARE. iii. COMMITTEE FINDINGS ARE DOCUMENTED AND MAILED TO THE PATIENT/GUARANTOR. iv. REMAINING BALANCES AFTER COMMITTEE FINDINGS REQUIRE AN ESTABLISHED PAYMENT PLAN TO REMAIN IN GOOD STANDING. CHARITY CARE INCOME LEVELS ARE BASED ON THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDE PUBLISHED IN THE FEBRUARY FEDERAL REGISTER ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. A TIERED METHOD IS UTILIZED FOR DETERMINING WHETHER A PATIENT IS ELIGIBLE FOR 100%, 75%, 50%, 25%, OR 15% WRITE-OFF OF THE SELF PAY BALANCE. A patient who is not eligible for presumed financial assistance may appeal the outcome to the Financial Assistance Committee.
SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 6A THE INFORMATION FOR THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORT IS GATHERED BY THE COMMUNITY RELATIONS DEPARTMENT WHICH IS A DEPARTMENT OF NORTHERN ARIZONA HEALTHCARE. FLAGSTAFF MEDICAL CENTER AND VERDE VALLEY MEDICAL CENTER ARE IDENTIFIED SEPARATELY ON THESE REPORTS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT IS AVAILABLE AT: https://nahealth.com/about-us/community-health-needs-assessment
SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7 VERDE VALLEY MEDICAL CENTER USED A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO, WHERE APPLICABLE, TO CALCULATE THE MOST ACCURATE COST OF CHARITY CARE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORTED IN LINE 7.
SCHEDULE H, PART II COMMUNITY BUILDING IS A FOCUS AT VERDE VALLEY MEDICAL CENTER. COMMUNITY BUILDING IS ADVANCED BY VERDE VALLEY MEDICAL CENTER THROUGH ITS SUPPORT OF PHYSICIAN RECRUITMENT AND WORK WITH VARIOUS COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDING LOCAL SCHOOLS, THE COTTONWOOD AND SEDONA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, AND THE ARIZONA HOSPITAL AND HEALTHCARE ASSOCIATION.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 2 BAD DEBT AMOUNTS ARE FROM THE BILLING SOFTWARE AND A MONTHLY CALCULATED AMOUNT BASED ON THE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE BALANCES BY FINANCIAL CLASS - PRIMARILY SELF-PAY. ACCOUNTS REFERRED TO BAD DEBT AS DEFINED IN NORTHERN ARIZONA HEALTHCARE POLICY ARE AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTED BY A FILE UPLOAD PROCESS USING A DEDICATED TRANSACTION CODE.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 3 THE ACTUAL CHARITY CARE AMOUNTS ARE FROM THE BILLING SOFTWARE WHICH IDENTIFIES THE AMOUNTS THAT ARE DIRECTLY RELATED TO PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY (FAP). THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ADJUSTMENT PERCENTAGE IS DETERMINED BASED UPON THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE GRID AS DEFINED IN NORTHERN ARIZONA HEALTHCARE'S FAP.

MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS BASED UPON THE HISTORICAL COLLECTION EXPERIENCE.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 8 THE SOURCE USED TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON LINE 6 IS THE FY2016 MEDICARE COST REPORT FOR THE ORGANIZATION. MEDICARE REPRESENTS 37% OF THE ORGANIZATIONS GROSS CHARGES. FOR FY2016 MEDICARE IS A SURPLUS PRIMARILY BECAUSE THE ORGANIZATION RECEIVES HIGHER MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENTS AS A SOLE COMMUNITY HOSPITAL, AS DEFINED AND DESIGNATED BY THE CENTERS FOR MEDICARE AND MEDICAID SERVICES. IN YEARS WHEN THERE IS A SHORTFALL, THE ENTIRE MEDICARE SHORTFALL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE THE ORGANIZATIONS MISSION IS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES WE SERVE, WHETHER OR NOT THIS SERVICE IS PROVIDED AT A LOSS, THEREBY RELIEVING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE BURDEN OF PAYING THE FULL COST OF THE MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, MANY OF WHOM WOULD QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 9B ACCORDING TO OUR CHARITY CARE POLICY, THE FINANCIAL COUNSELORS ASSESS THE PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY AT TIME OF ADMISSION/REGISTRATION. IF THE PATIENT STATES THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO PAY OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES, A DETERMINATION IS MADE WHETHER COVERAGE IS AVAILABLE THROUGH AHCCCS OR OTHER MEDICAID PROGRAMS. IF NO OUTSIDE ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE, AN APPLICATION IS GIVEN TO THE PATIENT TO BE SUBMITTED FOR CHARITY CARE CONSIDERATION. IF THE PATIENT DOESN'T QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE, INCOME LEVELS ARE ASSESSED TO DETERMINE IF THEY QUALIFY FOR A LONG-TERM PAYMENT PROGRAM. IF THE CHARITY APPLICATION IS NOT TURNED IN AND PAYMENT HAS NOT BEEN MADE AFTER NUMEROUS FOLLOW-UP PHONE CALLS, THE PATIENT ACCOUNT GOES TO BAD DEBT.
SCHEDULE H, PART VI, LINE 2 VERDE VALLEY MEDICAL CENTER ASSESSES COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE NEEDS THROUGH A SURVEY DESIGNED AND ADMINISTERED BY PROFESSIONAL RESEARCH CONSULTANTS, INC. THIS SURVEY WAS LAST CONDUCTED IN 2015 AND WAS A FOLLOW-UP TO OTHER SURVEYS THE HOSPITAL HAS CONDUCTED.

IF THE PATIENT STATES THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO PAY OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES, A DETERMINATION IS MADE WHETHER COVERAGE IS AVAILABLE THROUGH AHCCCS OR OTHER MEDICAID PROGRAMS. IF NO OUTSIDE ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE, AN APPLICATION IS GIVEN TO THE PATIENT TO BE SUBMITTED FOR CHARITY CARE CONSIDERATION. IF THE PATIENT DOESN'T QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE, INCOME LEVELS ARE ASSESSED TO DETERMINE IF THEY QUALIFY FOR A LONG-TERM PAYMENT PROGRAM. IF THE CHARITY APPLICATION IS NOT TURNED IN AND PAYMENT HAS NOT BEEN MADE AFTER NUMEROUS FOLLOW UP PHONE CALLS, THE PATIENT ACCOUNT GOES TO BAD DEBT.
