Form and Line Reference	Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C:	FOR PATIENTS THAT EXPERIENCE A MEDICAL HARDSHIP (MEDICAL DEBT THAT EXCEEDS 25% OF HOUSEHOLD INCOME OR WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW SPECIFIED LEVELS), CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER PROVIDES FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE. IF A PATIENT HAS RECEIVED REDUCED COSTS, UNDER THIS POLICY, THE PATIENT OR ANY IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBER OF THE PATIENT LIVING IN THE SAME HOUSEHOLD SHALL REMAIN ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE REDUCED COSTS FOR ANY MEDICALLY NECESSARY CARE WHEN SEEKING SUBSEQUENT CARE DURING THE 12 MONTH PERIOD BEGINNING ON THE DATE ON WHICH THE REDUCED COST CARE WAS INITIALLY RECEIVED. IN ADDITION, SOME PATIENTS ARE PRESUMED TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNTS ON THE BASIS OF LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES. THESE PATIENTS THAT THE HOSPITAL HAS DETERMINED PRESUMPTIVELY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ARE NOT REQUIRED TO COMPLETE ADDITIONAL FORMS OR PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND ARE GRANTED 100% FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNTS. THE HOSPITAL INTERNALLY DOCUMENTS ANY AND ALL RECOMMENDATIONS TO PROVIDE PRESUMPTIVE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNTS FROM PATIENTS AND OTHER SOURCES, SUCH AS PHYSICIANS, COMMUNITY OR RELIGIOUS GROUPS, INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL SOCIAL SERVICES OR FINANCIAL COUNSELING PERSONNEL. THE FOLLOWING ARE EXAMPLES OF PATIENT SITUATIONS THAT MAY REASONABLY ASSIST IN THE DETERMINATION OF PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: (1) PATIENT HAS RECEIVED CARE FROM AND/OR HAS PARTICIPATED IN WOMEN'S, INFANTS AND CHILDREN (WIC) PROGRAMS, (2) PATIENT IS HOMELESS AND/OR HAS RECEIVED CARE FROM A HOMELESS CLINIC, (3) PATIENT'S FAMILY IS ELIGIBLE FOR AND IS RECEIVING FOOD STAMPS, (4) PATIENT'S FAMILY IS ELIGIBLE FOR AND IS PARTICIPATING IN SUBSIDIZED SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAMS, (5) PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR OTHER STATE OR LOCAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS THAT ARE UNFUNDED OR THE PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY HAS BEEN DISMISSED DUE TO A TECHNICALITY (E.G. MEDICAID SPEND-DOWN), (6) FAMILY OR FRIENDS OF A PATIENT HAVE PROVIDED INFORMATION ESTABLISHING THE PATIENT'S INABILITY TO PAY, (7) THE PATIENT'S STREET ADDRESS AND DOCUMENTATION EVIDENCE STATUS IN AN AFFORDABLE OR SUBSIDIZED HOUSING DEVELOPMENT, (8) PATIENT/GUARANTOR'S WAGES ARE INSUFFICIENT FOR GARNISHMENT, AS DEFINED BY STATE LAW, OR (9) PATIENT IS DECEASED, WITH NO KNOWN ESTATE.
PART I, LINE 7:	MARYLAND'S REGULATORY SYSTEM CREATES A UNIQUE PROCESS FOR HOSPITAL PAYMENT THAT DIFFERS FROM THE REST OF THE NATION. THE HEALTH SERVICES COST REVIEW COMMISSION (HSCRC) DETERMINES PAYMENT THROUGH A RATE-SETTING PROCESS AND ALL PAYORS, INCLUDING GOVERNMENTAL PAYORS, PAY THE SAME AMOUNT FOR THE SAME SERVICES DELIVERED AT THE SAME HOSPITAL. MARYLAND'S UNIQUE ALL-PAYOR SYSTEM INCLUDES A METHOD FOR REFERENCING UNCOMPENSATED CARE IN EACH PAYORS RATES, WHICH DOES NOT ENABLE MARYLAND HOSPITALS TO BREAK-OUT ANY OFFSETTING REVENUE RELATED TO UNCOMPENSATED CARE. THE COST OF RENDERING SERVICES FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PATIENTS IS APPROXIMATELY EQUAL TO MEDICAID REVENUES IN MARYLAND. THUS, THE NET EFFECT IS APPROXIMATELY ZERO. THE EXCEPTION TO THIS IS THE IMPACT ON THE HOSPITAL OF ITS SHARE OF THE MEDICAID ASSESSMENT. IN RECENT YEARS, THE STATE OF MARYLAND HAS CLOSED FISCAL GAPS IN THE STATE MEDICAID BUDGET BY ASSESSING HOSPITALS THROUGH THE RATE-SETTING SYSTEM. PART I, LINE 7A - I:THE FOLLOWING COSTING METHODOLOGY WAS USED TO CALCULATE LINES 7A THROUGH 7I ON THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT.COST TO CHARGE RATIO - COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS USED IN REPORTING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT COST. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS DERIVED FROM CALCULATIONS SIMILAR TO WORKSHEET 2.
PART I, LINE 7G:	CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER INCURRED $5.1 MILLION OF NET COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE AS A RESULT OF UNDERTAKING SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES.A SHORTAGE OF PRIMARY OR SPECIALTY PROVIDERS HAS PERHAPS POSED THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES IN INPATIENT CARE DELIVERY. SUBSTANTIAL PHYSICIAN SUBSIDIES HAVE BECOME NECESSARY TO ENSURE THAT ALL PATIENTS REQUIRING ANESTHESIA, PEDIATRIC, PSYCHIATRIC, OBSTETRICAL, CRITICAL AND GENERAL MEDICAL CARE HAVE THE ACCESS THEY NEED ONCE ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL, INCLUDING 24/7 COVERAGE. CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER HAS HOSPITALIST PROGRAMS IN EACH OF THESE AREAS AND ALLOCATES A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF RESOURCES SUSTAINING THE PROGRAMS. IN FY18, APPROXIMATELY $9.5 MILLION WAS SPENT IN ENSURING CARE FOR ALL PATIENTS AND RECRUITING AND RETAINING PHYSICIANS. EQUALLY IMPORTANT IS ACCESS TO PHYSICIANS ON AN OUTPATIENT BASIS, NOT JUST FOR THE UNINSURED, BUT ALSO FOR ALL PATIENTS IN OUR GROWING COMMUNITY. TO ENSURE OUR COMMUNITY HAS ACCESS TO QUALITY PHYSICIANS, CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER CONTINUALLY MONITORS STATISTICALLY CALCULATED NEED BY DEVELOPING A COMPREHENSIVE MEDICAL STAFF DEVELOPMENT PLAN BASED ON THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF OUR MEDICAL SERVICE AREA. THE REPORT INCLUDES AN ANALYSIS OF APPROPRIATE STAFFING LEVELS IN A VARIETY OF MEDICAL SPECIALTIES. THE PHYSICIAN NEEDS ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY USED IS BASED ON A QUALITATIVE STANDARD ESTABLISHED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICES (IRS). THE REPORT GUIDES THE HOSPITAL'S RECRUITING STRATEGY, HELPS US TO PRIORITIZE RECRUITING EFFORTS AND ALLOWS THE HOSPITAL TO PLACE CONTINGENCIES ON RECRUITED PHYSICIANS TO ENSURE THEY SEE MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, UNINSURED, MEDICARE AND MEDICAID PATIENTS. WHILE CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER CARES FOR PATIENTS WITH NO MEANS TO PAY THEIR MEDICAL EXPENSES THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITAL, IT IS SEEN MOST ACUTELY IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT (ED), WHERE MANY UNINSURED PATIENTS OFTEN COME FOR PRIMARY AND EMERGENT CARE. SINCE ALL PATIENTS PRESENTING TO THE ED ARE TREATED FOR ANY MEDICAL CONDITION REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY FOR CARE, THE UNINSURED POPULATION POSES A SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGE NOT ONLY TO THE HOSPITAL, BUT ALSO TO PHYSICIANS PROVIDING CARE IN THE HOSPITAL AND IN THE ED. DUE IN PART TO LACK OF, OR MINIMAL REIMBURSEMENT, IT HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO FIND SPECIALISTS TO PROVIDE ON-CALL SERVICES FOR THE ED AROUND-THE-CLOCK. THE MORE SERIOUS ISSUE IS THAT THIS TREND EFFECTS NOT ONLY OUR UNINSURED PATIENTS, BUT ALL PATIENTS SEEKING TREATMENT IN OUR ED.THE LIKELIHOOD THAT PATIENTS PRESENT MORE ACUTELY IN THE UNINSURED POPULATION AND THE ACCOMPANYING INCREASED POTENTIAL FOR MALPRACTICE CLAIMS ALSO HAS CONTRIBUTED TO SPECIALISTS CHOOSING NOT TO COVER NONPAYING PATIENTS IN THE ED. THAT GAP IS MOST SIGNIFICANT IN SURGICAL SPECIALTIES INCLUDING, ORTHOPEDICS, OTOLARYNGOLOGY (ENT), GENERAL SURGERY AND PLASTIC SURGERY. THERE ALSO HAS BEEN INCREASING RELUCTANCE FROM OTHER SPECIALTIES WITH SIGNIFICANT ED VOLUMES, INCLUDING VASCULAR SURGERY, NEUROSURGERY AND NEUROLOGY. TO HELP EASE THE EFFECTS OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE ON PHYSICIANS AND ADDRESS THE GAP IN CARE FOR OUR PATIENTS, CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER HAS CONTINUED TWO MAJOR, COSTLY INITIATIVES TO ADDRESS THE GAP PROACTIVELY. FIRST, THE HOSPITAL CONTRACTS WITH 10 MEDICAL SPECIALTIES TO ENSURE 24/7 COVERAGE IN THE ED. IMPLEMENTED IN 2006, THOSE SPECIALTIES INCLUDE NEUROSURGERY, GENERAL, PLASTIC, VASCULAR, ORAL SURGERY, ORTHOPEDICS, UROLOGY, PODIATRY, OPHTHALMOLOGY AND ENT. ADDITIONALLY, THE GROWING VOLUMES OF UNINSURED PATIENTS HAS CAUSED THE HOSPITAL TO RECENTLY INSTITUTE AN ADDITIONAL POLICY WHICH ALLOWS PHYSICIANS WHO SEE PATIENTS WITHOUT A PAYMENT SOURCE IN THE ED TO BE REIMBURSED FOR PHYSICIAN SERVICES BY THE HOSPITAL AT CURRENT MEDICARE RATES. WHILE PAYMENT FOR ED CALL MAY HELP WITH THE GAPS IN COVERAGE FOR THE UNINSURED, IT BEARS A SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL TOLL ON THE HOSPITAL. THE EXPENSE TO PAY PHYSICIANS FOR ED CALL HAS COST THE HOSPITAL $1,226,807 IN FY18.ALL THE INITIATIVES AND SUPPORT LISTED ABOVE WOULD NOT BE PROVIDED IF CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER DID NOT PROVIDE THEM. AS THE ONLY HOSPITAL IN THE COUNTY, IT IS OUR PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES FOR THE UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED, AS WELL AS ALL COMMUNITY MEMBERS. NO OTHER ORGANIZATION OR INDIVIDUAL IN THE COUNTY WOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE ALL OF THESE COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES IN THE AREAS THAT THE HOSPITAL DOES. AS PART OF THE MISSION DRIVEN HEALTH SERVICES, CARROLL HOSPITAL PROVIDES MEDICAL SERVICES TO ACCESS CARROLL PATIENTS. FOUNDED IN 2005, ACCESS CARROLL IS A JOINT VENTURE BETWEEN CARROLL HOSPITAL, THE CARROLL COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND THE PARTNERSHIP FOR A HEALTHIER CARROLL COUNTY THAT PROVIDES FREE HEALTH CARE TO UNINSURED, LOW-INCOME CARROLL COUNTY RESIDENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS. ACCESS CARROLL CONSISTS OF A HEALTH CARE TEAM INVOLVING VOLUNTEER PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND OTHER MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS WHO WORK TOGETHER TO PROVIDE PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY MEDICAL CARE. MEDICATION ASSISTANCE, SPECIALTY CARE, DIAGNOSTIC AND LABORATORY TESTING, AND PATIENT EDUCATION ARE ALSO AVAILABLE ONSITE. CARROLL HOSPITAL INCURRED $408,895 IN COST TREATING ACCESS CARROLL PATIENTS IN FISCAL YEAR 2018.ALSO INCLUDED IN THESE EXPENSES ARE DIRECT AND INDIRECT COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO HOSPITAL BASED PHYSICIANS TOTALING $8,954,985.PART II: COALITION BUILDINGTHE PARTNERSHIP FOR A HEALTHIER CARROLL COUNTY, INC., AN AFFILIATE OF CARROLL HOSPITAL AND THE CARROLL COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT, IS A PRIVATE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION WORKING TO IMPROVE HEALTH BY CONNECTING PEOPLE, INSPIRING ACTION, AND STRENGTHENING COMMUNITY. THE PARTNERSHIP IS A RELATED SECTION 501(C)(3) TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION OF THE HOSPITAL, WHICH RECEIVES A MAJORITY OF ITS OPERATING FUNDS FROM CONTRIBUTIONS MADE DIRECTLY BY THE HOSPITAL.THE HOSPITAL ALSO OFFERS EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS TRAINING AND SUPPORT AS NEEDED TO COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS.
PART III, LINE 2:	CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER INCURRED $4,108,549 IN BAD DEBT EXPENSE DURING THE FISCAL YEAR 2018. THIS REFLECTS THE AMOUNT OF GROSS PATIENT CHARGES UNCOLLECTED FROM PATIENTS THAT DID NOT QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE REDUCED BY PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE HEALTH SYSTEM ANALYZES HISTORICAL COLLECTIONS AND WRITE-OFFS AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS AND PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS ITS ESTIMATE AND EVALUATES THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR BAD DEBTS. THE HEALTH SYSTEM ANALYZES CONTRACTUAL AMOUNTS DUE FROM PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD PARTY COVERAGE AND PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. FOR PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS, WHICH INCLUDES THOSE PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR A PORTION OF THE BILL, THE HEALTH SYSTEM RECORDS A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS FOR PATIENTS THAT ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY FOR THE PORTION OF THE BILL REPRESENTING THEIR FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. ACCOUNT BALANCES ARE CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR BAD DEBTS AFTER ALL MEANS OF COLLECTION HAS BEEN EXHAUSTED. BAD DEBT EXPENSE REPORTED ON LINE 2 REFLECTS ACTUAL PATIENT CHARGES THAT HAVE BEEN DETERMINED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE FOR PATIENTS THAT HAVE NOT QUALIFIED FOR CHARITY CARE. BAD DEBT EXPENSE MAY ALSO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL "BAD DEBT PROVISIONS" FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS BASED ON MANAGEMENT'S ESTIMATES OF FUTURE ACCOUNT COLLECTIONS BASED ON CHANGES IN SERVICE MIX AND PAYOR MIX.
PART III, LINE 3:	CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER, INC. DETERMINES ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH OTHER VARIOUS MEANS (CREDIT REPORTS, DEBT AND ASSET REVIEWS, AND REFERRALS FROM THE HOSPITAL'S BILLING AGENTS) WHEN THE PATIENT HAS NOT COMPLETED THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION. IF A DETERMINATION IS MADE REGARDING THE PATIENT'S INABILITY TO PAY, THE ACCOUNT CAN BE APPROVED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ON A PRESUMPTIVE BASIS RATHER THAN BE REFLECTED AS BAD DEBT EXPENSE. OF THE REMAINING BAD DEBT EXPENSE, IT IS ESTIMATED THAT $287,600 IN COST MAY BE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE/CHARITY CARE.
PART III, LINE 4:	THE PREPARATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, IN CONFORMITY WITH U.S. GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, REQUIRES MANAGEMENT TO MAKE ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS. ALL PATIENT ACCOUNTS ARE HANDLED CONSISTENTLY AND APPROPRIATELY TO MAXIMIZE CASH FLOW AND TO IDENTIFY BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS TIMELY. ACTIVE ACCOUNTS ARE CONSIDERED BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS WHEN THEY MEET SPECIFIC COLLECTION ACTIVITY GUIDELINES AND/OR ARE REVIEWED BY THE APPROPRIATE MANAGEMENT AND DEEMED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE. EVERY EFFORT IS MADE TO IDENTIFY AND PURSUE ALL ACCOUNT BALANCE LIQUIDATION OPTIONS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THIRD PARTY PAYOR REIMBURSEMENT, PATIENT PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS, MEDICAID ELIGIBILITY AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THIRD PARTY RECEIVABLE MANAGEMENT AGENCIES PROVIDE EXTENDED BUSINESS OFFICE SERVICES AND INSURANCE OUTSOURCE SERVICES TO ENSURE MAXIMUM EFFORT IS TAKEN TO RECOVER INSURANCE AND SELF-PAY DOLLARS BEFORE TRANSFER TO BAD DEBT. CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS WITH THIRD PARTY COLLECTION AGENCIES ARE USED TO ASSIST IN THE RECOVERY OF BAD DEBT DOLLARS AFTER ALL INTERNAL COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED. IN SO DOING, THE COLLECTION AGENCIES MUST OPERATE CONSISTENTLY WITH CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER'S GOAL OF MAXIMUM BAD DEBT RECOVERY AND STRICT ADHERENCE WITH FAIR DEBT COLLECTIONS PRACTICES ACT (FDCPA) RULES AND REGULATIONS, WHILE MAINTAINING POSITIVE PATIENT RELATIONS. SEE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PAGE 15
PART III, LINE 8:	CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER'S TAX YEAR 2017 (FISCAL YEAR 2018) MEDICARE COST REPORT SUBMISSION WAS UTILIZED AS THE SOURCE DOCUMENT TO REPORT MEDICARE TOTAL REVENUE AND ALLOWABLE COSTS.
PART III, LINE 9B:	FOR THOSE PATIENTS THAT DO NOT INITIALLY APPLY OR QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUES TO MONITOR WHETHER THE PATIENT MAY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. IF THE PATIENT IS FOUND TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT ANY POINT (INCLUDING ONCE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEGUN), THE ORGANIZATION WILL APPROVE THE PATIENT FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. COLLECTION EFFORTS WILL BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY ONCE THE PATIENT IS FOUND TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. PATIENTS DETERMINED TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE SUBSEQUENT TO THE DATE OF SERVICE MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR A REFUND OF PAYMENTS MADE IF IT IS DETERMINED THAT THE PATIENT WAS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT THE TIME OF SERVICE.
PART VI, LINE 2:	MONITORING THE HEALTH STATUS OF THE COMMUNITY IS AN ONGOING AND INTERACTIVE PROCESS ENGAGED IN BY THE HOSPITAL, WITH SUBSTANTIAL INVOLVEMENT FROM OUR COMMUNITY VIA THE PARTNERSHIP FOR A HEALTHIER CARROLL COUNTY, INC. ("THE PARTNERSHIP"), AN ENTITY ESTABLISHED BY THE HOSPITAL AND THE CARROLL COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT SPECIFICALLY TO ASSESS UNMET HEALTH NEEDS IN THE COMMUNITY, EXPAND THE CAPACITY FOR HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENT IN THE COMMUNITY, SERVE AS A COLLABORATIVE VEHICLE FOR INTERACTION WITH THE COMMUNITY, AND WITH OUR COMMUNITY, TO DRIVE THE EFFORT TO CREATE A HEALTHIER CARROLL COUNTY. THE PARTNERSHIP IS A RELATED SECTION 501(C)(3) TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION OF THE HOSPITAL, WHICH RECEIVES A MAJORITY OF ITS OPERATING FUNDS FROM CONTRIBUTIONS MADE DIRECTLY BY THE HOSPITAL.IMPROVEMENT IN THE CORE HEALTH IMPROVEMENT AREAS (CHIA) IS ONE OF THE HOSPITAL'S GOALS. THE CHIA ARE THE NEED AREAS REQUIRING INDIVIDUAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL ACTION TO ACHIEVE TARGETED IMPROVED STATUS USING THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES' HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020 TARGETS AS THE BENCHMARK. THE HOSPITAL PARTICIPATES ACTIVELY IN MANY OF THE CHIA LEADERSHIP TEAMS COMPRISED OF DIVERSE INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS FROM THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITAL'S SERVICE AREA, WHO SHARE EXPERTISE AND INTEREST IN THE CHIA. WITH SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE FROM THE PARTNERSHIP, THOSE LEADERSHIP TEAMS DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT ACTION PLANS SPECIFICALLY INTENDED TO ACCOMPLISH TARGETED RESULTS. "HEALTHY CARROLL VITAL SIGNS" (DESCRIBED BELOW) ARE THEN AFFIRMED, ARE SPECIFIC TO EACH CHIA LEADERSHIP TEAM AND SERVE AS ONE OF THE PRIMARY TOOLS FOR MEASURING AND REPORTING RESULTS TO THE HOSPITAL LEADERSHIP AND TO THE COMMUNITY.RECENTLY THE HOSPITAL HAS COLLABORATED WITH THE PARTNERSHIP WITH RESPECT TO AN ASSESSMENT OF HEALTH NEEDS VIA MARYLAND'S STATE HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PROCESS (S.H.I.P.), WHICH WAS ORGANIZED TO PRODUCE A LOCAL HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN (L.H.I.P.). THE PARTNERSHIP ORGANIZATION ENTHUSIASTICALLY AGREED TO SERVE AS THE LOCAL COALITION REQUIRED IN THE S.H.I.P. PROCESS. THIS PROVIDED CARROLL HOSPITAL CENTER YET ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY FOR LINKAGE TO IMPORTANT, VALIDATED INFORMATION ABOUT HEALTH NEEDS IN OUR COMMUNITY AND ONGOING OPPORTUNITIES TO COLLABORATE WITH OUR LOCAL AND STATE HEALTH DEPARTMENT REGARDING IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES FOR TARGETED RESULTS.PURSUANT TO THE S.H.I.P. ASSESSMENT, THIRTY-NINE "HIGH IMPACT OBJECTIVES" WERE IDENTIFIED BY THE STAFF AT MARYLAND'S DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND MENTAL HYGIENE. A CARROLL COUNTY SPECIFIC DATA PROFILE SERVED AS THE BASELINE DOCUMENT. AFTER THOROUGH ANALYSIS, A LEADERSHIP TEAM, WHICH INCLUDED THE HOSPITAL, PRODUCED A LOCAL HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN (L.H.I.P.)
