Form and Line Reference Explanation
SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, QUESTION 3I IN RESPONSE TO SHORE MEDICAL CENTERS 2015 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT ("CHNA"), THE ORGANIZATION DEVELOPED AND ADOPTED AN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN IN DECEMBER 2016, WHICH INCLUDES 2018, TO ADDRESS THE FOLLOWING HEALTH RISK FACTORS AND DISEASES IDENTIFIED AS HAVING THE GREATEST LEVEL OF PRIORITIZATION FOR THE COMMUNITY WE SERVE. THOSE AREAS ARE: - OBESITY; - HEART DISEASE; - CANCER; AND - DIABETES. BELOW PLEASE FIND A DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTIONS TAKEN TO ADDRESS THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE ORGANIZATIONS PRIOR CHNA. ADDITIONALLY, DESCRIBED BELOW IS THE IMPACT OF ALL OF THOSE ACTIONS TAKEN. OBESITY & HEART DISEASE ----------------------- SCREENING & EDUCATION: SHORE PARTICIPATED IN SEVERAL MAJOR HEALTH SCREENING EVENTS EACH YEAR DURING THE TIME FRAME, INCLUDING THE ANNUAL BAYFEST HEALTH FAIR AND THE JCC SENIOR EXPO, WHICH EACH RESULTED IN DIRECT EDUCATION AND SCREENING OF APPROXIMATELY 500 PEOPLE. SCREENINGS INCLUDE CARDIAC RISK ASSESSMENTS, STROKE RISK ASSESSMENTS, SLEEP DISORDER ASSESSMENTS, BALANCE DISORDER ASSESSMENTS, CANCER RISK FACTOR EDUCATION, EMERGENCY MEDICINE AND FIRST AID, GLUCOSE AND CHOLESTEROL TESTING, WITH EDUCATION FROM A NURSE TO HELP THOSE WHO EXHIBIT HIGH NUMBERS REDUCE THEIR RISK FACTORS THROUGH DIET AND EXERCISE AND RECOMMENDED FOLLOW UP WITH A PHYSICIAN. EXAMPLES OF OTHER COMMUNITY EFFORTS TO IMPACT THESE HEALTH RISKS INCLUDE: - GET YOUR SKINNY ON!: GET YOUR SKINNY ON! IS A WORKSHOP THAT WAS DEVELOPED TO TARGET YOUNG ADULTS AND FAMILIES AS AN OBESITY PREVENTION PROGRAM. SPECIFICALLY TO REDUCE CANCER INCIDENCE. THE TOPICS INCLUDE NUTRITION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, EMOTIONAL COMPONENTS AND FOOD DEMONSTRATIONS. FOUR PROGRAMS WERE HELD DURING 2018. - SENIOR SOCIALS: SENIOR SOCIALS ARE DESIGNED TO HELP SENIORS CONNECT WITH OTHERS WHILE LEARNING ABOUT A WIDE ARRAY OF HEALTH AND WELLNESS TOPICS. THE MONTHLY ONE-HOUR PROGRAMS OFTEN TOUCH ON CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT, HEALTH SCREENINGS, EXERCISE AND FITNESS, AND NUTRITION. - SPEAKERS BUREAU: SHORE HAS HAD A LONG HISTORY OF MAINTAINING AN ACTIVE SPEAKERS BUREAU, WITH EXPERTS AVAILABLE TO PRESENT AT LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS ON A WIDE ARRAY OF HEALTH AND WELLNESS TOPICS. WE RESPOND ENTHUSIASTICALLY TO ALL REQUESTS AND DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE AUDIENCE. FROM 55+ COMMUNITIES TO MAJOR EMPLOYERS, OUR HEALTH EXPERTS. - SPLAC TOOL: THE SPLAC TOOL IS A SYSTEMATIC TOOL INTRODUCED IN 2014 AND DEVELOPED BY A HOSPITAL COMMITTEE TO LOWER READMISSION RATES IN THE HOSPITAL. THE PURPOSE IS TO RATE PATIENTS ON THEIR LIKELINESS ON BEING READMITTED. THE HIGHER THE TOTAL THE MORE LIKELY TO BE READMITTED. BY IDENTIFYING HIGH RISK PATIENTS THEN THIS IS COMMUNICATED IN A SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND WAY TO THEIR PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN, REHAB FACILITY, ETC. THE GOAL IS TO PUT INTERVENTIONS IN PLACE TO KEEP THE PATIENT OUT OF THE HOSPITAL. THIS HAS DECREASED HOSPITAL READMISSION RATES, WHICH INDICATES THAT OUR EFFORTS ARE SUCCESSFUL. CANCER ------ SHORE MEDICAL CENTER HAS A DEDICATED CANCER CENTER. THE CANCER CENTER WORKS ON A VARIETY OF PROJECTS THAT FOCUS ON COMMUNITY OUTREACH. THIS IS DONE THROUGH OUR CANCER EDUCATION AND EARLY DETECTION ("CEED") PROGRAM, REGIONAL COALITION (CAPE ATLANTIC COALITION FOR HEALTH) AND COMMISSION ON CANCER PROGRAMS. WE OFFER A RANGE OF SPEAKERS ON SHORE MEDICAL CENTERS SPEAKERS BUREAU. OVER THE YEARS OF 2017 AND 2018, PARTICIPATION IN OVER 135 EVENTS HAVE OCCURRED REACHING OVER 4,100 PEOPLE ON VARIES CANCER AND HEALTH/WELLNESS TOPICS. THE CANCER CENTER PARTICIPATES IN GET YOUR SKINNY ON! AND IS A PARTNER WITH CHOOSE YOUR COVER FREE SKIN CANCER SCREENING EVENTS. OVER THE TWO YEARS 9 EVENTS OCCURRED SCREENING 398 PEOPLE. THROUGH THE CEED PROGRAM FREE SCREENING FOR BREAST, CERVICAL, COLORECTAL, AND/OR PROSTATE CANCER IS AVAILABLE FOR UNINSURED and UNDERINSURED LOW INCOME PATIENTS. TOBACCO / LOWER RESPIRATORY --------------------------- SHORE MEDICAL CENTER HAS A DEDICATED TOBACCO CESSATION AND TREATMENT PROGRAM. IT IS LOCATED IN THE CANCER CENTER. THE SMOKING CESSATION COUNSELOR IS LISTED ON THE SHORE MEDICAL CENTERS SPEAKERS BUREAU. IN ADDITION THE COUNSELOR IS LISTED ON ALL DISCHARGE SUMMARY DOCUMENTS TO LET PATIENTS KNOW THAT THE SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE. OVER THE LAST TWO AND A HALF YEARS THE PROGRAM HAS BEEN TAKING INSURANCE AND WILL ALSO ACCEPT CHARITY CARE, ETC. MULTIPLE OUTREACH EVENTS HAVE OCCURRED AND ARE INCLUDED IN THE CANCER CENTER NUMBERS. IN ADDITION WORK THROUGH THE COALITION HAS INCLUDED ON POLICY WORK FOR SMOKE FREE OUTDOOR AIR ORDINANCES. THIS IS PART OF A STATEWIDE INITIATIVE AND IS CONTINUING. THE GOAL IS TO KEEP THE FUTURE GENERATIONS FROM SMOKING THUS DECREASING THE CANCER RATES AND LOWER RESPIRATORY DISEASES. THIS PROGRAM ENDED DURING 2018.
SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, QUESTION 5 IN THE CHNA THE ORGANIZATION TOOK INTO ACCOUNT INPUT FROM PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVICED BY THE HOSPITAL FACILITY. IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THE INTENDED OBJECTIVES AND TO GAIN INPUT FROM THE COMMUNITY ON HEALTH ISSUES OF CONCERN, THE ORGANIZATION DISTRIBUTED BOTH AN ONLINE AND HARD COPY OF ITS CHNA SURVEY. THE SURVEY WAS COMPLETED BY APPROXIMATELY 220 INDIVIDUALS. THE SURVEY QUESTIONS WERE DEVELOPED IN A TEAM APPROACH BY BRAINSTORMING QUESTIONS AND EXAMINING SEVERAL SAMPLE SURVEYS. THE QUESTIONS WERE ADJUSTED BY STOCKTON UNIVERSITY TO PUT THE QUESTIONS IN PROPER FORMAT. THE SURVEY WAS DISPERSED THROUGH SHORE MEDICAL CENTER EMAIL BLASTS, LINKED TO THE SHORE MEDICAL CENTERS WEBSITE AND AVAILABLE IN PHYSICIAN OFFICES. THE SURVEY QUESTIONS CAN BE FOUND IN APPENDIX C OF THE ORGANIZATIONS CHNA. ADDITIONALLY, PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERS AND PROFESSIONALS FROM LOCAL AND COUNTY GOVERNMENT AND A LOCAL UNIVERSITY WERE INTERVIEWED AND ASSISTED US TO FORM A BETTER PICTURE OF THE COMMUNITY. PUBLIC HEALTH REPRESENTATIVES WERE INTERVIEWED ON KEY PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUES IN THE COUNTY. FOR ITS MOST RECENTLY CONDUCTED CHNA THE FOLLOWING REPRESENTATIVES WERE INTERVIEWED: - BENJAMIN H. MOUNT III, MPA, MPH, COORDINATOR OF COMMUNITY HEALTH SERVICES CAPE MAY COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT; - KEVIN THOMAS, PUBLIC HEALTH COORDINATOR STOCKTON UNIVERSITY; - ARIANE NEWMAN, MS, INTERIM ASSISTANT DEAN OF SCHOOL OF HEALTH SCIENCES; AND - TARA L. CROWELL, PHD., ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR STOCKTON UNIVERSITY. THESE LEADERS IDENTIFIED THE MOST IMPORTANT BARRIERS TO MAKING INFORMED HEALTH CHOICES WHICH INCLUDED ACCESS TO HEALTHIER FOOD AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES, LACK OF TRANSPORTATION AND LACK OF EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS DESIGNED TO BETTER INFORM THE COMMUNITY OF THEIR HEALTH-RELATED OPTIONS. IN THE MOST RECENTLY CONDUCTED CHNA THE ORGANIZATION UTILIZED THE ATLANTIC COUNTY DIVISION OF PUBLIC HEALTH COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT COMPLETED 2013-2014 BY RANDOM SURVEY METHODS OF THE ATLANTIC COUNTY POPULATION. THE SURVEY OF THE PUBLIC IDENTIFIED BARRIERS TO HEALTHCARE INCLUDING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE; COST OF MAINTAINING A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE; LACK OF KNOWLEDGE; LIMITED ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS AND MORE.

SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, QUESTION 11 THE ORGANIZATION'S CHNA AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN WERE ADOPTED AND POSTED ON THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE DURING 2016. THE ORGANIZATIONS IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY IS FOR 2017 - 2019 AND CONSISTS OF THE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES THE ORGANIZATION IS PURSUING IN AN EFFORT TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED DURING THE ORGANIZATIONS MOST RECENTLY CONDUCTED CHNA. THE FOLLOWING HEALTH ISSUES WERE IDENTIFIED AS A PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS: OBESITY, HEART DISEASE, CANCER AND DIABETES. EACH OF THE IDENTIFIED HEALTH NEEDS IS BEING ADDRESSED BY THE ORGANIZATION OVER THE COURSE OF THE IMPLEMENTATION PERIOD. PROJECTS WERE DEVELOPED TO SPECIFICALLY ADDRESS OBESITY, HEART DISEASE, CANCER AND DIABETES. THE FOCUS OF THE PROJECTS ARE TO AID COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO MAKE HEALTHIER CHOICES, IMPROVE ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS, REDUCE FOOD SCARCITY AND TO PROVIDE SUPPORT TO CAREGIVERS. IN ADDITION, THROUGH THESE STRATEGIES THE HOPE IS TO IMPACT CHRONIC DISEASE RATES BY PREVENTING AND REDUCING MORTALITY NUMBERS FROM HEART DISEASE, CANCER AND DIABETES. BELOW IS A SUMMARY OF HOW THE ORGANIZATION PLANS TO ADDRESS THE IDENTIFIED HEALTH NEEDS: OBESITY ------- OVER 24% OF THE ADULT POPULATION IS CONSIDERED OBESE IN ATLANTIC AND CAPE MAY COUNTY. OBESITY IS CONNECTED TO MANY CHRONIC DISEASES. HIGH OBESITY RATES CONTRIBUTE TO A VARIETY OF CHRONIC DISEASES. A PRIORITY HAS BEEN PUT IN PLACE TO FOCUS ON HEALTHY EATING AND ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS. FOR THIS REASON OBESITY WAS IDENTIFIED AS A TARGET. MULTIPLE STRATEGIES HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN WHICH INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: STRATEGY 1: HOST THE SOMERS POINT COMMUNITY FARMERS MARKET ON THE GROUNDS OF SHORE MEDICIAL CENTER DURING THE MONTHS OF MAY THROUGH SEPTEMBER IN ORDER TO PROVIDE HEALTH FOOD OPTIONS TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. STRATEGY 2: ACQUIRE THE TECHNOLOGY TO ACCEPT NJ SNAP EBT CARDS AT THE SOMERS POING COMMUNITY FARMERS MARKET IN ORDER TO PROVIDE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES FOR RESIDENTS ON GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE WITHIN THEIR COMMUNITY. STRATEGY 3: SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY FOODBANK OF NEW JERSEY (LOCAL CHAPTER) WITH A VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE HOSPITAL SUCH AS FOOD DRIVES, AS WELL AS SUPPORTING THE LOCAL MOBILE FOODBANK THROUGH EDUCATION AND AID. STRATEGY 4: PARTICIPATE IN THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURES SUMMER FOOD SERVICE PROGRAM BY PROVIDING A MEAL PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN DURING THE SUMMER WHEN SCHOOL IS OUT TO REDUCE FOOD SCARCITY ISSUES FOR LOW INCOME CHILDREN. STRATEGY 5: DEVELOP A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA TO PROVIDE BARIATRIC SERVICES TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. CHRONIC DISEASE (HEART DISEASE AND DIABETES) ------------------------------------------- ATLANTIC COUNTY'S HEART DISEASE RATE IS 13.7% HIGHER THAN THE STATE. HEART DISEASE AND STROKE IS IN THE LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH FOR BOTH ATLANTIC AND CAPE MAY COUNTY AND DIABETES ACCOUNTS FOR MANY HEALTH COMPLICATIONS INCLUDING HEART DISEASE AND STROKE. THE CHNA STATISTICAL RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS THE IMPORTANCE OF PREVENTING CHRONIC DISEASE, SPECIFICALLY HEART DISEASE AND DIABETES. IN ADDITION THE COMMINITY SURVEYS ALL SUGGESTED THAT THESE ISSUES ARE IMPORTANT TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS. THEREFORE, A PRIORITY HAS BEEN PUT IN PLACE TO FOCUS ON REDUCING CHRONIC DISEASE. THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUES TO BE COMMITTED TO RAISE AWARENESS THROUGH MULTIPLE FREE SCREENING OPPORTUNITIES FOR EARLY DETECTION OF THESE TYPES OF CHRONIC DISEASES. IN ADDITION MULITPLE STRATEGIES HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN TO TARGET CHRONIC DISEASE AND HEALTHY LIFESTYLE IMPROVEMENTS. THESE STRATEGIES INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: STRATEGY 6: EDUCATE PHYSICIANS IN THE COMMUNITY ABOUT TOOLS FOR PRIMARY PREVENTION OF DISEASE SUCH AS UTILIZING THE ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD OR DEVELOPING SYSTEMATIC ADJUSTMENTS WITHIN THEIR PRACTICE TO PROMOTE HEALTH AND/OR SCREENING FOR EARLY DETECTION. STRATEGY 7: IMPROVE PATIENT ACCESS TO CARDIAC REHABILIATATION SERVICES BY MOVING THE FACILITY INTO AN OUTPATIENT LOCATION. STRATEGY 8: OFFER OUTPATIENT NUTRITION COUNSELING THROUGH THE NEWLY MOVED CARDIAC REHABILIATATION CENTER. STRATEGY 9: EXPANSION OF FOLLOW UP DIABETES EDUCATION SERVICES COMPLETED BY A REGISTERED NURSE TO INCLUDE PATIENTS DISCHARGED FROM THE MEDICAL CENTER. THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE OUTPATIENT PARTNERSHIP DIABETES EDUCATION NOW AVAILABLE FOR PATIENTS WORKING WITH AREA PHYSICIANS. ADDITIONAL PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES ARE POTENTIALLY AVAILABLE WITH LOCAL DIETICIANS. CHRONIC DISEASE (CANCER) ----------------------- ATLANTIC AND CAPE MAY COUNTY HAVE SOME OF THE HIGHEST SMOKING RATES AND LUNG CANCER RATES IN THE STATE. SMC CONTINUED SUPPORT TO MAINTAIN THE TOBACCO PREVENTION AND TREATMENT PROGRAM THROUGH MID - 2018. ADDITIONALLY EDUCATIONAL INFORMATION IS PROVIDED AS NEEDED TO COALITION ACTIVITIES FOR "OUTDOOR SMOKE FREE SPACES". THESE TYPES OF INTERVENTIONS CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT THAT DISCOURAGES SMOKING AND CREATES A NONSMOKING SOCIAL NORM. CAPE MAY COUNTY HAS THE HIGHEST MELANOMA SKIN CANCER RATE IN THE STATE. AWARENESS ACTIVITIES ON HOW TO PROTECT OUR SKIN AND FREE SKIN CANCER SCREENINGS ARE PERFORMED EACH SUMMER ON BOTH THE ATLANTIC AND CAPE MAY COUNTY BEACHES WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS. IN 2017/2018, NINE SCREENINGS OCCURRED IN WHICH PARTICIPANTS WERE EDUCATED ON SUN SAFETY AND HOW TO PUT ON SUN SCREEN CORRECTLY, SCREENED FOR SKIN CANCERS AND REFERRED IF ANYTHING WAS SUSPICIOUS. THE FOLLOWING STRATEGY IS ALSO INCLUDED WITHIN THE ORGANIZATIONS IMPLEMENTATION PLAN TO ADDRESS CANCER: STRATEGY 10: PARTICIPATE IN THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY "80% BY 2018" COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING PLEDGE. THIS PROJECT FOCUSES ON INCREASING COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING IN AGE APPROPRIATE POPULATIONS TO REACH THE 80% MARK BY 2018 THUS PREVENTING COLORECTAL CANCER DEATHS. LIVING WITH CHRONIC DISEASE --------------------------- LIVING WITH CHRONIC DISEASE CAN BE DIFFICULT FOR PATIENTS AND FAMILIES AND OFTEN PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW HOW TO ACCESS HELP. FOR THIS REASON STRATEGY ELEVEN WAS DEVELOPED. STRATEGY 11: DEVELOPMENT OF THE CAREGIVER CENTER AT SHORE MEDICAL CENTER. THIS CENTER WILL OFFER PATIENTS AND FAMILIES A PLACE TO LEARN ABOUT RESOURCES, SERVICES IN THE COMMUNITY, AS WELL AS A PLACE OF RESPITE AND SUPPORT FOR FAMILIES CARING FOR A LOVED ONE. ADDITIONAL STRATEGIES --------------------- SHORE MEDICAL CENTER HAS A STRONG TRADITION OF MEETING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS THROUGH ITS ONGOING COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAMS. SHORE WILL CONTINUE THIS COMMITMENT THROUGH THE FOLLOWING STRATEGY. STRATEGY 12: PROVIDE PROGRAMS SUCH AS OUR MONTHLY "SENIOR SOCIALSOTHER EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS TO THE PUBLIC. THIS INCLUDED THE SHORE MEDICAL CENTERS SPEAKER BUREAU WHICH HAS A VARIETY OF PROFESSIONALS AVAILABLE TO PRESENT MANY DIFFERENT HEALTH TOPICS WHERE COMMUNITY GROUPS COME TOGETHER.

Form and Line Reference Explanation
SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 3C IN ADDITION TO THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES, THE ORGANIZATION USES OTHER FACTORS IN DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR FREE AND DISCOUNTED CARE. AS OUTLINED IN PART V, SECTION B, QUESTION 13, OTHER FACTORS TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY INCLUDE: - ASSET LEVEL; - MEDICAL INDIGENCY; - INSURANCE STATUS; - UNDERINSURANCE STATUS; AND - RESIDENCY. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS OUTLINED BELOW. NEW JERSEY HOSPITAL CHARITY CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM ("CHARITY CARE") ------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHARITY CARE IS A NEW JERSEY PROGRAM IN WHICH FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE IS AVAILABLE TO PATIENTS WHO RECEIVE INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SERVICES AT ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY. HOSPITAL ASSISTANCE AND REDUCED CHARGE CARE ARE ONLY AVAILABLE FOR NECESSARY EMERGENCY OR OTHER MEDICALLY NECESSARY CARE. PATIENTS MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE IF THEY ARE NEW JERSEY RESIDENTS WHO: 1) HAVE NO HEALTH COVERAGE OR HAVE COVERAGE THAT PAYS ONLY PART OF THE HOSPITAL BILL (UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED); 2) ARE INELIGIBLE FOR ANY PRIVATE OR GOVERNMENTAL SPONSORED COVERAGE (SUCH AS MEDICAID); AND 3) MEET THE FOLLOWING INCOME AND ASSET ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA DESCRIBED BELOW. INCOME CRITERIA: PATIENTS WITH FAMILY GROSS INCOME LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 200% OF FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES ("FPG") ARE ELIGIBLE FOR 100% CHARITY CARE COVERAGE. PATIENTS WITH FAMILY GROSS INCOME GREATER THAN 200% AND LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 300% OF FPG ARE ELIGIBLE FOR DISCOUNTED CARE. FREE CARE OR PARTIALLY COVERED CHARGES WILL BE DETERMINED BY USE OF THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH FEE SCHEDULE. IF PATIENTS ON THE 20% TO 80% SLIDING FEE SCALE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR QUALIFIED OUT-OF-POCKET PAID MEDICAL EXPENSES IN EXCESS OF 30% OF THEIR GROSS ANNUAL INCOME (I.E. BILLS UNPAID BY OTHER PARTIES), THEN THE AMOUNT IN EXCESS OF 30% IS CONSIDERED HOSPITAL CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE. ASSET CRITERIA: CHARITY CARE INCLUDES ASSET ELIGIBILITY THRESHOLDS WHICH STATES THAT INDIVIDUAL ASSETS CANNOT EXCEED $7,500 AND FAMILY ASSETS CANNOT EXCEED $15,000 AS OF THE DATE OF SERVICE. CHARITY CARE MAY BE AVAILABLE TO NON-NEW JERSEY RESIDENTS, REQUIRING IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR AN EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITION. NEW JERSEY UNINSURED DISCOUNT PUBLIC LAW 2008, C. 60 ("UNINSURED DISCOUNT") ---------------------------------------------------------------- THE NEW JERSEY UNINSURED DISCOUNT (NJ LAW - BILL S-1797/A-2609) IS AVAILABLE TO UNINSURED PATIENTS WHOSE FAMILY GROSS INCOME IS LESS THAN 500% OF FPG. ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUALS MUST BE NEW JERSEY RESIDENTS. HOWEVER, SMC HAS ELECTED TO APPLY THIS DISCOUNT TO ALL UNINSURED PATIENTS IRRESPECTIVE OF INCOME LEVEL OR RESIDENCY. SMC OFFERS DISCOUNTED RATES TO ALL UNINSURED INDIVIDUALS. UNDER THIS PROGRAM, AN ELIGIBLE PATIENT WILL BE CHARGED AN AMOUNT NO GREATER THAN 115% OF THE MEDICARE FEE SCHEDULE. UNINSURED BILLING LIMITS ARE IN ACCORDANCE WITH NJ P.L.2008 C60.
SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 6A NOT APPLICABLE.
SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7 WORKSHEET 2 WAS USED FOR THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO.
SCHEDULE H, PART II SHORE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL D/B/A SHORE MEDICAL CENTER ("THE MEDICAL CENTER") IS PROUD TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE COMMUNITIES WE CALL HOME. OUR GENEROUS MEDICAL CENTER STAFF HAVE PARTICIPATED IN NUMEROUS EVENTS THAT SUPPORT AND EXEMPLIFY THE MEDICAL CENTER'S COMMITMENT TO OUR COMMUNITY. OUR PRIMARY GOAL IS TO CARE FOR AND RESPECT, ALL PATIENTS THEIR FAMILIES AND EACH OTHER. ALONG WITH THE SUPERIOR CARE THAT WE DELIVER EVERY DAY, WE STRIVE TO EDUCATE AND PROMOTE WELLNESS TO THE COMMUNITY THROUGH THE MANY OUTREACH PROGRAMS WE OFFER. MORE RECENTLY, THE MEDICAL CENTER BECAME THE FIRST HOSPITAL IN NEW JERSEY AND ONE OF LESS THAN 50 ORGANIZATIONS WORLDWIDE TO RECEIVE PLANETREE PATIENT-CENTERED CARE DESIGNATION. THE PLANETREE MODEL OF CARE IS A PATIENT-CENTERED, HOLISTIC APPROACH TO HEALTHCARE, PROMOTING MENTAL, EMOTIONAL, SPIRITUAL, SOCIAL AND PHYSICAL HEALING. WE HOPE TO EMPOWER OUR PATIENTS AND FAMILIES THROUGH THE EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION TO ULTIMATELY ENCOURAGE AND FOSTER HEALING PARTNERSHIPS WITH CAREGIVERS.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINES 2, 3 & 4 BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED USING THE PROVIDERS' BAD DEBT EXPENSE FROM THE AUDITIED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, NET OF ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF AT CHARGES. THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF WOULD HAVE QUALIFIED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE HAD THOSE INDIVIDUALS APPLIED. THEREFORE, THE ORGANIZATIONS ESTIMATES ITS BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO INDIVIDUALS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATIONS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY TO BE THE PERCENTAGE OF SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF DURING THE YEAR OVER THE TOTAL BAD DEBT EXPENSE. SHORE MEMORIAL HEALTH SYSTEM PREPARES AND ISSUES AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE ATTACHED TEXT WAS OBTAINED FROM THE FOOTNOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF SHORE MEMORIAL HEALTH SYSTEM & AFFILIATES PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE/ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS ----------------------------------------------------------- PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE RESULT FROM THE HEALTH CARE SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS FOR ESTIMATED LOSSES RESULTING FROM THE UNWILLINGNESS OF PATIENTS TO MAKE PAYMENTS FOR SERVICES. THE ALLOWANCE IS DETERMINED BY ANALYZING HISTORICAL DATA AND TRENDS. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS WHEN MANAGEMENT DETERMINES THAT RECOVERY IS UNLIKELY AND THE SYSTEM CEASES COLLECTION EFFORTS. NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE --------------------------- ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE REDUCED BY AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE SYSTEM ANALYZES ITS PAST HISTORY AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. MANAGEMENT REVIEWS DATA ABOUT THESE MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, THE SYSTEM ANALYZES CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS, IF NECESSARY (FOR EXAMPLE, FOR EXPECTED UNCOLLECTIBLE DEDUCTIBLES AND COPAYMENTS ON ACCOUNTS FOR WHICH THE THIRD-PARTY PAYOR HAS NOT YET PAID, OR FOR PAYORS WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE HAVING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES THAT MAKE THE REALIZATION OF AMOUNTS DUE UNLIKELY). FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS, THE SYSTEM RECORDS A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS ON THE BASIS OF ITS PAST EXPERIENCE, WHICH INDICATES THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BILLED RATES AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 8 MEDICARE COSTS WERE DERIVED FROM THE 2018 MEDICARE COST REPORT. THE ORGANIZATION FEELS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL), BAD DEBT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. AS OUTLINED MORE FULLY BELOW, THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT THESE SERVICES AND RELATED COSTS PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AND ARE RENDERED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITABLE TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSES AND MISSION IN PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUALS IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN OR ABILITY TO PAY AND CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD PROMULGATED BY THE IRS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IS THE CURRENT STANDARD FOR A HOSPITAL FOR RECOGNITION AS A TAX-EXEMPT AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC") 501(C)(3). THE ORGANIZATION IS RECOGNIZED AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER 501(C)(3) OF THE IRC. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO DEFINITION IN THE TAX CODE FOR THE TERM "CHARITABLE" A REGULATION PROMULGATED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY PROVIDES SOME GUIDANCE AND STATES THAT "THE TERM CHARITABLE IS USED IN SECTION 501(C)(3) IN ITS GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE,PROVIDES EXAMPLES OF CHARITABLE PURPOSES, INCLUDING THE RELIEF OF THE POOR OR UNPRIVILEGED; THE PROMOTION OF SOCIAL WELFARE; AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION, RELIGION, AND SCIENCE. NOTE IT DOES NOT EXPLICITLY ADDRESS THE ACTIVITIES OF HOSPITALS. IN THE ABSENCE OF EXPLICIT STATUTORY OR REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS APPLYING THE TERM "CHARITABLE" TO HOSPITALS, IT HAS BEEN LEFT TO THE IRS TO DETERMINE THE CRITERIA HOSPITALS MUST MEET TO QUALIFY AS IRC 501(C)(3) CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS. THE ORIGINAL STANDARD WAS KNOWN AS THE CHARITY CARE STANDARD. THIS STANDARD WAS REPLACED BY THE IRS WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD WHICH IS THE CURRENT STANDARD. CHARITY CARE STANDARD IN 1956, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 56-185, WHICH ADDRESSED THE REQUIREMENTS HOSPITALS NEEDED TO MEET IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR IRC 501(C)(3) STATUS. ONE OF THESE REQUIREMENTS IS KNOWN AS THE "CHARITY CARE STANDARD." UNDER THE STANDARD, A HOSPITAL MUST PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS WHO CANNOT PAY FOR SUCH SERVICES. A HOSPITAL THAT EXPECTED FULL PAYMENT DID NOT, ACCORDING TO THE RULING, PROVIDE CHARITY CARE BASED ON THE FACT THAT SOME PATIENTS ULTIMATELY FAILED TO PAY. THE RULING EMPHASIZED THAT A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE DID NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THAT A HOSPITAL HAD FAILED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT SINCE THAT LEVEL COULD REFLECT ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE SUCH CARE. THE RULING ALSO NOTED THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED COMMUNITY HOSPITALS WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY AS CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY AND A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE WOULD NOT AFFECT A HOSPITAL'S EXEMPT STATUS IF IT WAS DUE TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY'S LACK OF CHARITABLE DEMANDS. COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IN 1969, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH "REMOVED" FROM REVENUE RULING 56-185 "THE REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO CARING FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT RATES BELOW COST." UNDER THE STANDARD DEVELOPED IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE "COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD," HOSPITALS ARE JUDGED ON WHETHER THEY PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF A BROAD CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE RULING INVOLVED A HOSPITAL THAT ONLY ADMITTED INDIVIDUALS WHO COULD PAY FOR THE SERVICES (BY THEMSELVES, PRIVATE INSURANCE, OR PUBLIC PROGRAMS SUCH AS MEDICARE), BUT OPERATED A FULL-TIME EMERGENCY ROOM THAT WAS OPEN TO EVERYONE. THE IRS RULED THAT THE HOSPITAL QUALIFIED AS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION BECAUSE IT PROMOTED THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE IN ITS COMMUNITY. THE IRS REASONED THAT BECAUSE THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH WAS A CHARITABLE PURPOSE ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY, IT FELL WITHIN THE "GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE" OF THE TERM "CHARITABLE," AS REQUIRED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF TREASURY REG. 1.501(C)(3)-1(D)(2). THE IRS RULING STATED THAT THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH, LIKE THE RELIEF OF POVERTY AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RELIGION, IS ONE OF THE PURPOSES IN THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY THAT IS DEEMED BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE EVEN THOUGH THE CLASS OF BENEFICIARIES ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A DIRECT BENEFIT FROM ITS ACTIVITIES DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS INDIGENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDED THAT THE CLASS IS NOT SO SMALL THAT ITS RELIEF IS NOT OF BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE IRS CONCLUDED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS "PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF A CLASS OF PERSONS THAT IS BROAD ENOUGH TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY" BECAUSE ITS EMERGENCY ROOM WAS OPEN TO ALL AND IT PROVIDED CARE TO EVERYONE WHO COULD PAY, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT. OTHER CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HOSPITAL THAT THE IRS HIGHLIGHTED INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING: ITS SURPLUS FUNDS WERE USED TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, EXPAND HOSPITAL FACILITIES, AND ADVANCE MEDICAL TRAINING, EDUCATION AND RESEARCH; IT WAS CONTROLLED BY A BOARD OF TRUSTEES THAT CONSISTED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS; AND HOSPITAL MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES WERE AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ("AHA") FEELS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THIS ORGANIZATION AGREES WITH THE AHA'S POSITION. AS OUTLINED IN THE AHA'S LETTER TO THE IRS DATED AUGUST 21, 2007 WITH RESPECT TO THE FIRST PUBLISHED DRAFT OF THE NEW FORM 990 AND SCHEDULE H, THE AHA FELT THAT THE IRS SHOULD INCORPORATE THE FULL VALUE OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT THAT HOSPITALS PROVIDE BY COUNTING MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: - PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY AND SERVING MEDICARE PATIENTS IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD - MEDICARE, LIKE MEDICAID, DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE. FROM THE LATEST DATA PROVIDED BY THE AHA, AS OF 2017, MEDICARE REIMBURSES HOSPITALS ONLY 87 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR THEY SPEND TO TAKE CARE OF MEDICARE PATIENTS. - MANY MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 42 PERCENT OF MEDICARE SPENDING IS FOR BENEFICIARIES WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MANY OF THOSE MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID -- SO CALLED ELIGIBLE." THERE IS EVERY COMPELLING PUBLIC POLICY REASON TO TREAT MEDICARE AND MEDICAID UNDERPAYMENTS SIMILARLY FOR PURPOSES OF A HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND INCLUDE THESE COSTS ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT MUST BE SHOULDERED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE COMMUNITY'S ELDERLY AND POOR. THESE UNDERPAYMENTS REPRESENT A REAL COST OF SERVING THE COMMUNITY AND SHOULD COUNT AS A QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT. BOTH THE AHA AND THIS ORGANIZATION ALSO FEEL THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT IS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. LIKE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT (SHORTFALLS), THERE ALSO ARE COMPELLING REASONS THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT SHOULD BE COUNTED AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS FOLLOWS: - A SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, WHO, FOR MANY REASONS, DECLINE TO COMPLETE THE FORMS REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY FOR HOSPITALS' CHARITY CARE OR THOSE WHO DO NOT PAY ALL, OR A PORTION OF THE ALREADY DISCOUNTED BILLED AMOUNTS UNDER OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. A 2006 CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ("CBO") REPORT, NONPROFIT HOSPITALS AND THE PROVISION OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS, CITED TWO STUDIES INDICATING THAT "THE GREAT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT WAS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WITH INCOMES BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE." - THE REPORT ALSO NOTED THAT A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. UNLIKE BAD DEBT IN OTHER INDUSTRIES, HOSPITAL BAD DEBT IS COMPLICATED BY THE FACT THAT HOSPITALS FOLLOW THEIR MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TREAT EVERY PATIENT THAT COMES THROUGH THEIR EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. PATIENTS WHO HAVE OUTSTANDING BILLS ARE NOT TURNED AWAY, UNLIKE OTHER INDUSTRIES. BAD DEBT IS FURTHER COMPLICATED BY THE AUDITING INDUSTRY'S STANDARDS ON REPORTING CHARITY CARE. MANY PATIENTS CANNOT OR DO NOT PROVIDE THE NECESSARY, EXTENSIVE DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED TO BE DEEMED CHARITY CARE BY AUDITORS. AS A RESULT, ROUGHLY 40% OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. THE CBO CONCLUDED THAT ITS FINDINGS "SUPPORT THE VALIDITY OF THE USE OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE [BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE] AS A MEASURE OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT" ASSUMING THE FINDINGS ARE GENERALIZABLE NATIONWIDE; THE EXPERIENCE OF HOSPITALS AROUND THE NATION REINFORCES THAT THEY ARE GENERALIZABLE. AS OUTLINED BY THE AHA, DESPITE THE HOSPITAL'S BEST EFFORTS AND DUE DILIGENCE, PATIENT BAD DEBT IS A PART OF THE HOSPITAL'S MISSION AND CHARITABLE PURPOSES. BAD DEBT REPRESENTS PART OF THE BURDEN HOSPITALS SHOULDER IN SERVING ALL
SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 9B ACCOUNTS CONSIDERED TO BE CHARITY CARE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, BUT RATHER, ACCOUNTED FOR AS AN ALLOWANCE. SHORE MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES A FULL-RANGE OF HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO OUR COMMUNITY REGARDLESS OF THE PATIENTS ABILITY TO PAY. WE RECOGNIZE THAT A CRITICAL PART OF PROVIDING HEALTHCARE SERVICES INCLUDES MITIGATING CONCERNS OUR PATIENTS MAY HAVE RELATED TO BILLING MATTERS. THIS BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY IS OUR COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY, PATIENTS AND FAMILY MEMBERS WE SERVE. THIS COMMITMENT RUNS PARALLEL TO OUR NOT FOR PROFIT MISSION AND IS EVIDENCED BY THE FOLLOWING PROACTIVE MEASURES TAKEN BY SHORE MEDICAL CENTER TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO OUR PATIENTS. SHORE MEDICAL CENTER HAS A DISCOUNT PROGRAM TO ASSIST PATIENTS WHO ARE LEAST ABLE TO PAY. THE POLICY IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL RELIEF TO OUR SELF-PAY POPULATION BY REDUCING THE HOSPITALS STANDARD CHARGE FOR SERVICES RENDERED. AT THE TIME OF BILLING THE PATIENT, THE CHARGES ARE REDUCED TO AN ESTIMATED COST OF SERVICES. THE HOSPITAL ALSO ENSURES THAT ALL PATIENTS RECEIVE INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE STATE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM FOR THE UNINSURED AND UNDER-INSURED. TO INQUIRE ABOUT SHORES SELF-PAY BILLING AND DISCOUNT POLICY, CHARITY CARE OR PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS, PATIENTS MAY CONTACT THE PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICES CREDIT AND COLLECTIONS OFFICE. SHORE MEDICAL CENTER ALSO OFFERS FINANCIAL COUNSELING AND SCREENING FOR PATIENTS TO ENSURE THAT ANY POTENTIAL THIRD PARTY COVERAGE UNDER OTHER GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS, SUCH AS MEDICAID, CAN BE IDENTIFIED. THIS SERVICE IS PROVIDED AT NO COST TO THE PATIENT. BILLING & COLLECTIONS --------------------- THE ORGANIZATION ABIDES BY PROVISIONS ON THE COLLECTION PRACTICES TO BE FOLLOWED FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THESE PROVISIONS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: THE HOSPITAL APPROVES PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS FOR OUR PATIENTS WHO CANNOT PAY THEIR BILLS IN FULL. THESE PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS CAN BE TAILORED TO THE INDIVIDUAL NEEDS OF THE PATIENT. WE DO NOT CHARGE ADDITIONAL FEES IN THE FORM OF INTEREST FOR CARRYING THE BALANCES BEING PAID UNDER THESE ARRANGEMENTS. THE ACCOUNTS OF PATIENTS FOR WHICH THERE IS NO IDENTIFIED THIRD PARTY INSURANCE WILL FOLLOW A PREDEFINED SELF-PAY COLLECTION CYCLE. ANY REMAINING UNPAID ACCOUNTS THAT ARE NOT IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS AFTER A DEFINED SELF-PAY COLLECTION CYCLE OF 120 DAYS WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO A THIRD PARTY AGENCY FOR COLLECTION. THE ACCOUNT WILL REMAIN WITH THIS AGENCY FOR 180 DAYS. AFTER THIS TIME PERIOD, WITHOUT ANY AGREED UPON PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS TO SATISFY THE UNPAID BALANCE, THE ACCOUNT WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO ANOTHER THIRDS PARTY COLLECTION AGENCY. AT THIS TIME, THE UNPAID BALANCE MAY BE REPORTED TO A CREDIT AGENCY, AND AS SUCH, APPEAR ON THE ACCOUNT GUARANTOR'S CREDIT REPORT. SHORE MEDICAL CENTER PURSUES COLLECTION OF BALANCES RIGHTFULLY OWED BY PATIENTS FOR SERVICES RENDERED AND CONTRACTS WITH THIRD PARTY COLLECTION AGENCIES FOR THE PURPOSE OF COLLECTING DELINQUENT ACCOUNT BALANCES. THE COLLECTION AGENCIES OPERATE UNDER THE FEDERAL FAIR DEBT, CREDIT AND COLLECTION GUIDELINES. COLLECTION AGENCY ACTIVITY IS CLOSELY MONITORED BY THE HOSPITAL TO ENSURE THAT PATIENT COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE APPROPRIATE AND IN-LINE WITH OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE PHILOSOPHY. ALL PATIENT COMPLAINTS REGARDING DISSATISFACTION WITH SERVICES RENDERED OR BILLING ISSUES ARE HANDLED PROMPTLY AND IN A COURTEOUS MANNER TO ENSURE THAT CUSTOMER SERVICE REMAINS THE FOCUS OF ANY PATIENT CONCERN. ALL COMPLAINTS ARE CONSIDERED VALID AND PATIENT FEEDBACK IS WELCOME WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTED MATTERS. THE HOSPITAL ABSORBS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT ANNUALLY (BALANCES DUE BY PATIENTS THAT ARE INTENTIONALLY NOT PAID), OR ARE INCURRED AS A RESULT OF MITIGATING CIRCUMSTANCES, BANKRUPTCY FILINGS AND OTHER COLLECTION MATTERS.
