ST ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: IN 2013, THE ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT (OCHD), HOSPITALS, AND REPRESENTATIVES FROM COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS CONVENED TO DEVELOP THE 2013-2018 COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN. THE PLANNING GROUP MET REGULARLY TO DISCUSS THE DATA, COMMUNITY INPUT, AND HEALTH PRIORITIES. INPUT WAS COLLECTED FROM A LARGE COMMUNITY FORUM WITH STAKEHOLDER FEEDBACK ON COMMUNITY STRENGTHS, WEAKNESSES, AND PRIORITY AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT. A CHA/CHIP PLANNING TEAM COMPRISED OF OCHD, FSL, SEMC AND RMH STAFF MET REGULARLY STARTING IN EARLY 2016. THE PLANNING TEAM MET TO REVIEW AND DISCUSS THE 2016-2018 CHA/CHIP UPDATE PROCESS, CLARIFY EXPECTATIONS, AND DEVELOP A DETAILED WORK PLAN WITH TEAM RESPONSIBILITIES, ASSIGNED TASKS, AND DEADLINES TO DEVELOP AND FINALIZE THE PLAN UPDATE. THE PLANNING TEAM CAME TO CONSENSUS ON THE APPROACH TO UPDATE THE CHA AND REASSESS PRIORITIES ESTABLISHED IN THE CHIP. DATA FROM THE ONEIDA COUNTY PREVENTION AGENDA DASHBOARD, NEW YORK STATE QUITLINE PARTNERS REPORTS, ONEIDA COUNTY TEEN ASSESSMENT PROJECT (TAP), PEDIATRIC NUTRITION SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM (PEDNSS) REPORTS, COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS, BRIDGES COMMUNITY SURVEY, AND THE CNY CARE COLLABORATIVE (CNYCC) COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT WERE REVIEWED TO ASSESS AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT AND STATUS IN ACHIEVING THE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES OUTLINED IN THE PREVIOUS CHIP. THE CNYCC COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT AND WORK TO SUPPORT THE DELIVERY SYSTEM REFORM INCENTIVE PAYMENT PROGRAM (DSRIP), AN INITIATIVE TO TRANSFORM THE HEALTH SYSTEM OF NEW YORK STATE, WERE ALSO FACTORED INTO THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS. IN MARCH 2016, THE PLANNING TEAM PRESENTED TO THE ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH COALITION GENERAL MEMBERSHIP (APPROXIMATELY 60 PEOPLE IN ATTENTANCE) INFORMATION ON THE CHA AND CHIP ACTIVITIES. THE OCHC IS COMPRISED OF BROAD REPRESENTATION OF SECTORS AND ORGANIZATIONS THAT CONVENE UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE OCHD TO DISCUSS AND ANALYZE DATA ON VARIOUS HEALTH ISSUES AND TRENDS. PARTNERS WERE PROVIDED WITH A SUMMARY OF THE PREVENTION AGENDA DATA AND THE SELECTED CHIP FOCUS AREAS AND WORK GROUP ACTIVITIES. MEMBERS WERE APPRISED OF AND INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE WORK GROUPS AND COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT ACTIVITIES. AS A FOLLOW UP TO COLLECT MORE IN-DEPTH PARTNER FEEDBACK, IN MAY 2016, THE PLANNING TEAM CONVENED MEMBERS OF THE ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH COALITION STEERING COMMITTEE, A GROUP OF APPROXIMATELY 20 COMMUNITY AGENCIES AND ORGANIZATIONS THAT OVERSEE AND GUIDE THE LARGER COMMUNITY HEALTH PARTNERSHIP. PARTNERS WERE PRESENTED WITH AN OVERVIEW OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT UPDATE AND COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN REQUIREMENTS, CHIP WORK GROUP PROJECTS, TIMELINES, AND STATUS IN ACHIEVING THE DEFINED GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. THE PREVENTION AGENDA INDICATOR DATA AND GOALS WERE REVIEWED ALONG WITH AN OVERVIEW OF HOW EACH OF THE FOCUS AREAS ALIGN WITH HOSPITAL DSRIP INITIATIVES, SPECIFICALLY: THE INITIATIVES OF THE TOBACCO CESSATION WORK GROUP ALIGNED WITH DSRIP FOCUS AREAS TO DSRIP 4.D.I. - REDUCE PRETERM BIRTHS AND DSRIP 3.B.I. - CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE MANAGEMENT AND THE INITIATIVES OF THE BREASTFEEDING WORK GROUP INDIRECTLY ALIGN WITH DSRIP GOALS (E.G., HEALTHY START FOR BABIES AND HEALTH BENEFITS TO MOTHER) TO REDUCE UNNECESSARY UTILIZATION THROUGH PRIMARY PREVENTION. THE PLANNING TEAM OUTLINED ITS SUCCESSES AND CHALLENGES AND OBTAINED INPUT FROM THE STEERING COMMITTEE ON AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT AND IDENTIFIED OTHER POTENTIAL PARTNERS OR RESOURCES THAT COULD SUPPORT CHIP WORK GROUP ACTIVITIES. AS A RESULT OF THE DIALOGUE, THE OCHC STEERING COMMITTEE REAFFIRMED THAT THE PLANNING TEAM AND WORK GROUPS SHOULD CONTINUE THEIR EFFORTS TO ADDRESS THE CHIP FOCUS AREAS AND GOALS OUTLINED IN THE 2013-2018 CHIP. THE PLANNING TEAM ALSO ESTABLISHED MECHANISMS TO COLLECT COMMUNITY PERSPECTIVE ON THE CHIP FOCUS AREAS. HEALTH DEPARTMENT STAFF PRESENTED A SHORT COMMENT CARD TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS AT ALL SEVEN (7) PUBLIC HEALTH EVENTS ON NEEDS AND PERCEPTIONS RELATED TO TOBACCO CESSATION AND BREASTFEEDING. THE RESULTS OF THIS FEEDBACK ARE IN APPENDIX B. ADDITIONALLY, THE PLANNING TEAM REVIEWED THE FINDINGS FROM THE CNYCC NEEDS ASSESSMENT WHICH INCLUDED A PRIMARY CARE ASSESSMENT, CNY CONSUMER ACCESS SURVEY, CNY SAFETY NET ASSESSMENT (MEDICAID AND SELF-PAY POPULATIONS) AND KEP INFORMANT INTERVIEWS.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
PART I, LINE 7:	THE PATIENTS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WAS COMPUTED USING ALL CHARGES AND EXPENSES LESS NON-ALLOWABLE. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS USED TO COMPUTE COST. COST-TO-CHARGE WAS DERIVED BY DIVIDING TOTAL CHARGES FROM THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INTO TOTAL COST FROM THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, LESS NON-PATIENT COSTS.
PART I, LN 7 COL(F):	THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25(A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $9,285,881.
PART III, LINE 4:	990 PART III LINE 4: (FOOTNOTE)THE MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. THE MEDICAL CENTER'S POLICY IS NOT TO PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE; THEREFORE, THESE AMOUNTS ARE NOT REPORTED IN NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. DURING 2018 AND 2017, COSTS INCURRED BY THE MEDICAL CENTER IN THE PROVISION OF CHARITY CARE WERE BASED ON THE RATIO OF THE MEDICAL CENTER'S COSTS TO GROSS CHARGES AND APPROXIMATED $387,000 AND $616,000 FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017, RESPECTIVELY. 990 PART III, LINE 3:THE MEDICAL CENTER GRANTS CREDIT WITHOUT COLLATERAL TO PATIENTS, MOST OF WHOM ARE LOCAL RESIDENTS AND ARE INSURED UNDER THIRD-PARTY AGREEMENTS. ADDITIONS TO THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS ARE MADE BY MEANS OF THE PROVISION FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF AS UNCOLLECTIBLE ARE DEDUCTED FROM THE ALLOWANCE AND SUBSEQUENT RECOVERIES ARE ADDED. THE AMOUNT OF THE PROVISION FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS IS BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS, BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN FEDERAL AND STATE GOVERNMENT HEALTH CARE COVERAGE AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. SERVICES RENDERED TO INDIVIDUALS WHEN PAYMENT IS EXPECTED AND ULTIMATELY NOT RECEIVED ARE WRITTEN OFF TO THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS.
PART III, LINE 8:	THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON LINE 6 IS COST TO CHARGE RATIO. THE SHORTFALL REPORTED IS COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE BECAUSE THIS AMOUNT REPRESENTS THE UNREIMBURSED COSTS TO THE MEDICAL CENTER FOR PROVIDING CARE FOR THE COMMUNITY'S ELDERLY AND DISABLED.
PART III, LINE 9B:	COLLECTION POLICY PROVISIONS PATIENTS THAT QUALIFY FOR THE MEDICAL CENTER'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM HAVE THE CHARGES ON THEIR ACCOUNTS FORGIVEN AS THEY ARE PLACED IN CHARITY CARE AND THE BALANCES ARE WRITTEN OFF. THE MEDICAL CENTER'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM USED THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES (FPG) AS A GUIDE WITH HIGH-END LIMITS AT 300% OF THE FPG. IN THOSE SITUATIONS WHERE THE PATIENT'S INCOME IS BETWEEN 200% - 300% OF THE FPG, A SMALL COST SHARE WOULD BE THE ONLY AMOUNT NOT INCLUDED IN CHARITY CARE. ADDITIONALLY THIS SMALL COST SHARE WOULD BE THE ONLY AMOUNT TURNED OVER TO COLLECTION WITH THE OPPORTUNITY OF EVENTUALLY BEING WRITTEN OF TO BAD DEBT IF NOT PAID.
PART VI, LINE 2:	A VARIETY OF DATA SOURCES WERE USED TO IDENTIFY AND CONFIRM PRIORITIES INCLUDING: THE NYS PREVENTION AGENDA DASHBOARD, HEALTHECONNECTIONS, NEW YORK STATE QUITLINE PARTNERS REPORTS, ONEIDA COUNTY TEEN ASSESSMENT PROJECT (TAP), AND THE PEDIATRIC NUTRITION SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM (PEDNSS) REPORTS. THE PLANNING TEAM ALSO REVIEWED DATA FROM THE JOHN SNOW, INC. COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT FOR THE CENTRAL NEW YORK CARE COLLABORATIVE (CNYCC), THE COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS, AND BRIDGES COMMUNITY SURVEY.THE PLANNING TEAM WORKED TO SOLICIT FEEDBACK FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL HOSTED A COMMUNITY FORUM TO SOLICIT FEEDBACK FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND PARTICIPATED IN THE CITY OF ROME'S HUD COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT; ACCESS TO SPECIALTY, PRIMARY, AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES WERE THE MAIN COMMUNITY NEEDS IDENTIFIED. ADDITIONALLY, THE PLANNING TEAM REVIEWED THE FINDINGS FROM THE CENTRAL NY CARE COLLABORATIVE (CNYCC) NEEDS ASSESSMENT IN WHICH SOME ITS KEY FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS ARE ADDRESSED IN THE SELECTED CHIP INTERVENTIONS AND TARGET POPULATIONS. FINALLY, THE ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT ASKED SPECIFIC QUESTIONS AT HEALTH FAIRS AND EVENTS WHERE ITS STAFF INTERACTS WITH THE PUBLIC:1) WHAT CAN WE DO AS A COMMUNITY TO HELP MORE MOTHERS BREASTFEED THEIR BABIES?2) WHAT CAN WE DO AS A COMMUNITY TO HELP MORE PEOPLE STOP SMOKING?
PART VI, LINE 3:	PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCETHIS IS COMMUNICATED THROUGH ST ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER'S FACILITATED ENROLLMENT PROGRAM AND THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. INFORMATION IS INCLUDED IN THE PATIENT INFORMATION GUIDES PRESENTED TO INPATIENTS AND OUTPATIENTS AND IS AVAILABLE ON THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE.ST ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMTO SUPPORT OUR MISSION, THE ST ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER HAS DEVELOPED THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THE MEDICAL CENTER WILL MAKE AVAILABLE A RESONABLE AMOUNT OF UNCOMPENSATED SERVICES TO ELIGIBLE PERSONS.ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER'S FACILITATED ENROLLMENT PROGRAMIN 2000, ST ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER DEVELOPED AND IMPLEMENTED THE FACILITATED ENROLLMENT PROGRAM AS A RESULT OF THE UNIQUE COLLABORATION THAT WAS FORGED BETWEEN ST ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER AND ONEIDA COUNTY SOCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT. THIS PROGAM ALLOWS ST ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER STAFF, PATIENT ACCOUNT REPRESENTATIVES, TO ACT AS AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PATIENT AT THE ONEIDA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES AND SUBMIT THE APPLICATION FOR BENEFITS. THIS SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM HAS EXPANDED THROUGHOUT THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS TO INCLUDE OUTPATIENTS AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENTS.
PART VI, LINE 4:	SERVICE AREA:THE ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND THE HOSPITALS SERVE THE ENTIRE COUNTY. HOSPITAL PATIENT CENSUS INCLUDES RESIDENTS FROM HERKIMER AND MADISON AS WELL, WITH APPROXIMATELY 80% OF PATIENTS RESIDING IN ONEIDA COUNTY ZIP CODES. THE THREE HOSPITALS IN THE COUNTY INCLUDE: MOHAWK VALLEY HEALTH SYSTEM WHICH INCLUDES FAXTON-ST. LUKE'S HEALTHCARE (FSLH) AND ST ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER (SEMC), LOCATED IN THE CITY OF UTICA; AND ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL (RMH) LOCATED IN THE CITY OF ROME. GEOGRAPHY:ONEIDA COUNTY IS LOCATED IN CENTRAL NEW YORK WITH A POPULATION OF APPROXIMATELY 233,944. THERE ARE THREE CITIES IN THE COUNTY: UTICA POPULATION OF 62,000; ROME POPULATION OF 33,000; AND THE SMALL CITY OF SHERRILL. THERE ARE 45 TOWNS AND VILLAGES THAT COVER A TOTAL OF 1,257.11 SQUARE MILES. SIXTY-SEVEN PERCENT (67%) OF THE COUNTY'S POPULATION RESIDES IN URBAN AREAS AND 33% IN RURAL AREAS.AGE:LIKE MANY OTHER COMMUNITIES, ONEIDA COUNTY HAS A SIGNIFICANT AND GROWING AGING POPULATION WITH A MEDIAN AGE OF 41.2 AND 16.8% OF THE POPULATION 65 YEARS AND OLDER. RACE & ETHNICITY:THE RACIAL AND THNIC CHARACTERISTICS OF ONEIDA COUNTY ARE: WHITE (84.9%); BLACK (5.5%); ASIAN (4.0%); OTHER (2.0%), TWO OR MORE RACES (3.1%); AND HISPANIC OR LATINO (5.5%). ONEIDA COUNTY IS THE HOME OF ONE OF THE LARGEST REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT AGENCIES IN THE COUNTRY, THE MOHAWK VALLEY RESOURCE CENTER FOR REFUGEES (MVRCR). SINCE 1981, THE MVRCR HAS RESETTLED OVER 15,000 INDIVIDUALS IN THE CITY OF UTICA OF VARYING ETHNICITIES AND NATIONALITIES INCLUDING VIETNAMESE, RUSSION, BOSNIAN, SOMALI BANTU, BURMESE AND NEPALI TO NAME A FEW (MVRCR): 17.6% FOREIGN-BORN RESIDENTS CONSTITUTE THE POPULATION OF THE CITY OF UTICA. 26.6% HOUSEHOLDS IN UTICA SPEAK A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH.WITHIN THE COUNTY BORDER IS A PORTION OF THE MEMBERS (549) AND TERRITORY OF THE ONEIDA INDIAN NATION (NYS OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES, "A PROUD HERITAGE - NATIVE AMERICAN SERVICES IN NYS", 2001 EDITION) IN THE COUNTY, THERE ARE POCKETS OF AMISH AND MENNONITE POPULATIONS IN RURAL AREAS (DATA UNAVAILABLE). ECONOMIC:-PERCENTAGE OF FAMILIES AND PEOPLE WHOSE INCOME IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS IS BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL IS 11.7% AND THE PERCENTAGE WITH RELATED CHILDREN UNDER 18 YEARS IS 20.8%; THE PERCENTAGE OF PEOPLE 65 YEARS AND OLDER BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL IS 9.1%. THE PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION 16 YEARS AND OLDER THAT IS UNEMPLOYED IS 4.8%.-PERCENT WITH HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATE DEGREE OR HIGHER IS 87.5%.-PERCENT OF CIVILIAN NON-INSTITUTIONALIZED POPULATION WITH HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE IS 93.1%; 67.5% OF THESE HAVE PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE AND 40.6% WITH PUBLIC COVERAGE. 6.9% HAVE NO HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE. -THE EIGHT COUNTIES OF CNY HAVE A TOTAL OF 277,458 MEDICAID ENROLLEES; ONONDAGA AND ONEIDA COUNTY ACCOUNT FOR 171,713 OR 62% OF ALL OF THE MEDICAID ENROLLEES. (CENTRAL NY CARE COLLABORATIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT)
PART VI, LINE 5:	THE NEW YORK STATE PREVENTION AGENDA SERVES AS A GUIDE TO HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND HOSPITALS AS THEY DEVELOP THE CHNA AND PROMOTE COMMUNITY HEALTH. THE SIX PRIORITY AREAS WERE REVISED IN MARCH 2015. THEY ARE:1. IMPROVE HEALTH STATUS AND REDUCE HEALTH DISPARITIES2. PROMOTE A HEALTHY AND SAFE ENVIRONMENT3. PREVENT CHRONIC DISEASES 4. PREVENT HIV/STDS, VACCINE PREVENTABLE DISEASES AND HEALTHCARE-ASSOCIATED INFECTIONS5. PROMOTE HEALTHY WOMEN, INFANTS, AND CHILDREN 6. PROMOTE MENTAL HEALTH AND PREVENT SUBSTANCE ABUSEAPPENDIX A - NYS PREVENTION AGENDA DASHBOARD - ONEIDA COUNTY SUMMARIZES SOME OF THE DATA REVIEWED TO ASSESS THE COUNTY'S HEALTH STATUS AND PROGRESS IN ACHIEVING THE NYS PREVENTION AGENDA PRIORITY AREAS OBJECTIVES FOR 2018. THE PLANNING TEAM COLLABORATIVELY ASSESSED WHETHER TO CHANGE OR ADD PRIORITIES BASED ON PROGRESS TO DATE AND OTHER COMMUNITY NEEDS. WHILE THERE WERE MULTIPLE AREAS WORTHY OF SELECTION FOR IMPROVEMENT, THE DATA ANALYSIS BELOW INDICATES THAT THE FOCUS AREAS IDENTIFIED IN THE EXISTING 2013-2017 CHIP MERITED CONTINUED AND SUSTAINED IMPROVEMENT EFFORTS TO ADDRESS BREASTFEEDING AND TOBACCO CESSATION (SEE TABLE 1). ADDITIONALLY, THE SELECTED PRIORITIES AND GOALS WERE INITIATIVES THAT BOTH HOSPITALS AND PUBLIC HEALTH COULD LEAD AND IMPACT. THE PLANNING TEAM ALSO REGULARLY CONSULTED WITH THE CHIP WORK GROUPS TO ASSESS PROGRESS AND GATHER FEEDBACK ON THE DATA AND GOALS. TABLE 1 IS AN EXTRACTION OF APPENDIX A, AND HIGHLIGHTS INDICATORS RELATED TO THE FOCUS AREAS AND GOALS IN THE CHIP; THE FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINDINGS:TOBACCO CESSATION: ALTHOUGH THE PERCENTAGE OF ADULTS SMOKING CIGARETTES DECREASED FROM 24% TO 22% SINCE THE 2013 CHIP/CHA, THE PERCENTAGE REMAINS HIGH IN COMPARISON TO NYS (17.3%) AND THE NYS PREVENTION AGENDA OBJECTIVE (12.3%), NOTWITHSTANDING THE FACT THAT SMOKING IS ALSO LINKED TO MULTIPLE CHRONIC DISEASE CONDITIONS INCLUDING DIABETES, HEART DISEASE, STROKE AND ASTHMA.BREASTFEEDING: THE PERCENTAGE OF INFANTS EXCLUSIVELY BREASTFED IN THE HOSPITAL IS 51.7% AND NEAR THE PA OBJECTIVE OF 48.1%. HOWEVER, THERE IS SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE RATIO FOR AT-RISK POPULATIONS INCLUDING BLACKS (0.39) AND MEDICAID BIRTHS (0.49) AND THE NYS PA OBJECTIVES OF 0.57 AND 0.667, RESPECTIVELY. ALSO, WIC DATA SHOWS IMPROVEMENTS ARE STILL NEEDED FOR INFANTS BREASTFEEDING AT SIX MONTHS (18.5% - PEDNSS 2014). THE INITIATIVES IN THE EXISTING 2013-2017 CHIP ALSO TARGET INDIVIDUALS WITH LOW SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS AND INDIRECTLY IMPACT OTHER INDIVIDUALS WITH DISPARITIES (MINORITIES AND INDIVIDUALS WITH LOW-ENGLISH PROFICIENCY) IDENTIFIED IN THE DEMOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS ABOVE. ADDITIONALLY, FINDINGS IN THE CNY CARE COLLABORATIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT, RELATED TO ONEIDA COUNTY, SUPPORT THE NEED FOR INTERVENTIONS TARGETED AT CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION (TOBACCO CESSATION) AND PROMOTING HEALTHY WOMEN, INFANTS AND CHILDREN (BREASTFEEDING). THESE INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:1. TOTAL PREVENTION QUALITY INDICATORS (PQIS) - PQIS ARE DEFINED AS CONDITIONS FOR WHICH ACCESS TO AND PROVISION OF APPROPRIATE OUTPATIENT CARE CAN PREVENT COMPLICATIONS OF CHRONIC DISEASE AND POTENTIALLY PREVENT THE NEED FOR HOSPITALIZATION. THE LIST OF AREAS THAT REQUIRE CLOSER EXAMINATION RELATED TO INCREASED NEED FOR IMPROVED ACCESS TO OUTPATIENT CARE IN ONEIDA COUNTY INCLUDED UTICA, ROME AND WATERVILLE. THESE AREAS HAVE TOTAL PQI RATES THAT ARE TWO (2) TO FIVE (5) TIMES GREATER THAN THE AVERAGE RATES FOR CENTRAL AND UPSTATE NEW YORK. 2. DIABETES PQI AND INPATIENT HOSPITALIZATION RATES - THE FOLLOWING AREAS HAD ONE OR MORE DIABETES INDICATOR RATES THAT WERE SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER THAN THE CENTRAL AND UPSTATE NEW YORK BENCHMARK RATES: WOODGATE HAD THE GREATEST NEED. IT HAD THE HIGHEST RATES FOR PQI 1 (SHORT-TERM COMPLICATIONS OF DIABETES) AND PQI 16 (LOWER EXTREMITY AMPUTATION) IN THE EIGHT-COUNTY REGION. IT ALSO HAD THE SECOND HIGHEST RATES FOR PQI 3 (LONG-TERM COMPLICATIONS OF DIABETES). CAMDEN, UTICA AND, TO A LESSER EXTENT ROME AND A FEW OUTLINING AREAS, ALSO SHOWED UP ON A NUMBER OF DIABETES INDICATORS. 3. RESPIRATORY PQI AND INPATIENT HOSPITALIZATION RATES - THE FOLLOWING AREAS HAD ONE OR MORE RESPIRATORY INDICATOR RATES THAT WERE SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER THAN THE CENTRAL AND UPSTATE NEW YORK BENCHMARK RATES - THE CITIES OF UTICA AND ROME SHOWED UP CONSISTENTLY ON THE INDICATORS. THERE WERE A FEW AREAS WITH MUCH SMALLER POPULATIONS IN THE COUNTY THAT ALSO APPEARED. 4. CIRCULATORY PQI AND CARDIAC-RELATED INPATIENT HOSPITALIZATION RATES - IN THE CITIES OF ROME AND UTICA, AS WELL AS LEE CENTER, THE RATES OF CORONARY VASCULAR DISEASE DISCHARGES SPECIFICALLY SHOWED A VERY DISTINCT PATTERN. NEARLY ALL OF ONEIDA COUNTY SHOWED HIGH LEVELS OF NEED. GENERAL CONCLUSION: GIVEN THE DISTINCT PATTERN OF CORONARY VASCULAR DISEASE MORBIDITY, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH A BROAD-BASED PROGRAM FOCUSING ON HEALTHY BEHAVIORS SUCH AS PROPER NUTRITION AND EXERCISE WOULD BE VERY BENEFICIAL, NOT ONLY FOR CARDIOVASCULAR-RELATED MORBIDITY, BUT FOR DIABETES, AS WELL.(SOURCE: CNYCC NEEDS ASSESSMENT) FSLH AND SEMC OFFER NUMEROUS FREE, EDUCATIONAL EVENTS EACH YEAR TO THE PUBLIC:- MAMMOGRAM AND PAP SCREENINGS FOR UNINSURED WOMEN- A WOMEN'S HEALTH OPEN HOUSE FOR ALL WOMEN - GENERAL HEALTH INFORMATION FOR HEART HEALTH AT THE ANNUAL HEART RUN AND WALK EXPO.
