Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment funds

The earnings from the endowment fund can be used for any and all expenses needed to support the Northwest Medical Center Association, Inc.

Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote

Heartland Health, Heartland Regional Medical Center, Heartland Foundation, Heartland Long Term Acute Care Hospital, Northwest Medical Center Association, Inc., and Northwest Medical Center Foundation are nonprofit corporations described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and are exempt from federal income taxes on related income pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, they are subject to federal income tax on any unrelated business taxable income. CHPIC, Midwestern Health Management, Inc. and HHS Properties, Inc. are subject to income taxation. Heartland Business Plaza, LLC and Village of Burlington Creek Office, LLC are limited liability companies that are taxed as partnerships. With a few exceptions, Heartland is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014. At June 30, 2018, net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income for these entities aggregated approximately $16,591 and expire through 2035. Separate return limitation restrictions apply to a portion of these net operating loss carryforwards. Tax positions are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to realized on settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions take that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. As of June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were no uncertain tax positions identified and recorded as a liability.

NWMC CONDUCTED A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT TO DETERMINE SERVICES NEEDED BY THE MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, LOW INCOME OR MINORITY POPULATIONS. TO ENSURE INPUT WAS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT FROM PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE COMMUNITY, NWMC UTILIZED AN INDEPENDENT CONSULTING FIRM NAMED LAN RESOURCES, LLC. A PRIMARY DATA ASSESSMENT WAS DEVELOPED THAT INCLUDED A COMPREHENSIVE SURVEY AND FOCUS GROUP INPUT. THE SURVEY CONTENT WAS DIVIDED INTO SECTIONS RELATED TO INDIVIDUAL, FAMILY, AND COMMUNITY NEEDS. EACH SECTION ADDRESSED A SERIES OF FACTORS INCLUDING HEALTH BEHAVIORS, CLINICAL CARE, SOCIAL/ECONOMIC FACTORS, AND PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT. THE SURVEY WAS RANDOMLY DISTRIBUTED TO 1,000 RESIDENCES IN NWMC'S SERVICE AREA. (THE PRINTERY, A LOCAL COMPANY, DISTRIBUTED THE SURVEYS VIA MAIL.) 150 COMPLETED SURVEYS WERE RETURNED AND ANALYZED, ALONG WITH THE COMPILED SECONDARY DATA. IN ADDITION, A RANDOM TELEPHONE INTERVIEW WAS CONDUCTED BY LAN RESOURCES TO DETERMINE THE MOST PRESSING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. THE TELEPHONE SURVEY INCLUDED RESIDENTS OF ALBANY AND THE SURROUNDING AREA TO GET FEEDBACK TO A 95% CONFIDENCE INTERVAL. A COMMUNITY FOCUS GROUP FROM NWMC'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA WAS CONDUCTED TO GATHER COMMUNITY FEEDBACK REGARDING THE PRIMARY HEALTH NEEDS. LAN RESOURCES, LLC, RECRUITED THE COMMUNITY MEMBER GROUP. LAN RESOURCES MODERATED THIS GROUP. AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH SESSION, THE FOCUS GROUP PARTICIPANTS WERE GIVEN A BLANK SHEET OF PAPER AND WERE ASKED TO WRITE DOWN THE FIRST WORD OR SHORT PHRASE THAT CAME TO MIND WHEN ASKED THE QUESTION, WHAT IS THE NUMBER ONE HEALTH NEED OF YOUR COMMUNITY? THE CARDS WERE COLLECTED AND THE GROUP DISCUSSED EACH OF THE RESPONSES. INCLUDING THE RESOURCES CURRENTLY IN PLACE IN THEIR COMMUNITY TO ADDRESS THAT NEED.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Bad Debt Expense excluded from financial assistance calculation	0
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistance	THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE TABLE WAS THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO DERIVED FROM WORKSHEET 2. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT COST WAS $382,000 AND $304,000 FOR YEARS ENDED 6/30/17 AND 6/30/18, RESPECTIVELY. MEDICAID NET COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS $101,000 AND $228,000 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 6/30/17 AND 6/30/18, RESPECTIVELY. THE MEDICAL CENTER RECEIVES REIMBURSEMENT FROM THE MEDICAID PROGRAM IN RELATION TO THE PERCENTAGE OF MEDICAID AND INDIGENT POPULATION THEY SERVE.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount	THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 2 COMES FROM THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE REPORTED IN THE HEARTLAND HEALTH AUDIT REPORT ON PAGE 39.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense Methodology	NWMC is transitioning to a new charity assessment system to help direct appropriate patients to financial assistance. As a result, management anticipates a reduction in line 3 bad debt expense attributable to patients eligible under the organization's financial assistance policy.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote	THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOOTNOTE IS ON PAGE 12 OF THE ATTACHED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. SEE ALSO THE PARAGRAPH IN THE CHARITY CARE FOOTNOTE ON THE TOP OF PAGE 18.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs	THE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS WERE CALCULATED USING A COST TO CHARGE RATIO DIRECTLY FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORT WHICH RESULTS IN A SHORTFALL. IN ADDITION TO NON-PAYMENT BY MEDICARE RECIPIENTS FOR THEIR DEDUCTIBLE AND COINSURANCE AMOUNT INCREASES FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND BAD DEBT. NWMC PROVIDES SERVICES TO ALL MEDICARE PATIENTS WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THE COST OF PROVIDING CARE TO THEM MAY EXCEED THE REIMBURSEMENT FROM MEDICARE FOR THE SERVICES PROVIDED. THE SHORTFALL OF COSTS, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND BAD DEBT IS CONSIDERED TO BE A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE THE NWMC IS ABSORBING THE ADDITIONAL COST OF PROVIDING CARE TO THE ELDERLY AND DISABLED IN THE COMMUNITY. IN ADDITION, THIS COINCIDES WITH THE IRS REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH provides general requirements for tax exemption, along with section 501(c)(3).
Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance	THE NORTHWEST MEDICAL CENTER'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY CONTAINS PROVISIONS ON COLLECTION PRACTICES TO BE FOLLOWED FOR PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ONLY. ACCORDING TO THIS POLICY, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA ARE BASED ON RESIDENCY, GROSS HOUSEHOLD INCOME & HOUSEHOLD SIZE. APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE Patients will be informed of the Northwest Medical Center financial assistance policy and the process for submitting an application. To determine if the patient or guarantor is eligible for financial assistance, Northwest Medical Center asks for the necessary information and documents to prove household size, income, and residency. A completed application for financial assistance should be submitted within 240 days from the date of the first post-discharge billing statement. Northwest Medical Center will make reasonable efforts to explain the Medicaid benefits, the health insurance exchange and coverage, and other public and private coverage that may apply. Northwest Medical Center will also provide the details of these programs and offer to help patients and guarantors apply for them as well as private programs and COBRA coverage. Once the patient or guarantor is screened to be potentially eligible for any of these programs, public or private, Northwest Medical Center expects him or her to apply. If a patient or guarantor chooses not to apply, he or she may be denied financial assistance. If the patient or guarantor is potentially eligible for any third party coverage, he or she must provide documentation of approval or denial of that third party coverage, before a Northwest Medical Center financial assistance application will be accepted. Information on the Northwest Medical Center Financial Assistance Policy will be communicated to patients in a culturally appropriate language. Collection actions No account will be subject to collection actions within 120 days of issuing the first post discharge statement and without first making reasonable efforts to determine whether the patient is eligible for financial assistance. No extraordinary collection actions will be pursued against a patient if the patient or guarantor has provided documentation showing that an application has been submitted for Medicaid or other publicly sponsored health programs, and that an eligibility determination is still pending. If a statement is sent to a patient or guarantor, and mail is returned as undeliverable, Northwest Medical Center will attempt to find a correct address. If the correct address cannot be found, Northwest Medical Center will attempt to contact the patient or guarantor by telephone at the number listed by the patient or guarantor. If efforts to communicate with the patient or guarantor fail, accounts will be sent to a collection agency. Reasonable efforts to inform patient of financial assistance Prior to sending an account to a collection agency, the patient or guarantor will generally receive a minimum of four written statements (includes the first post-discharge statement and three subsequent statements). These statements will include a telephone number for information on paying patient balances and a notice about financial assistance. If an agreement has not been made to resolve the account, a final letter will be sent to the patient or guarantor. This letter acts as a notice to the account owner of the amount owed to Northwest Medical Center and that the account will be placed with a third-party collection agency in 30 days. This letter will include a plain language summary and will outline any collection actions that may be taken if a plan is not put in place to settle the account. There are other times when accounts may be placed in collections including when: 1. The patient or guarantor has not made timely payments according to the agreed-upon payment plan. 2. The patient or guarantor has received a financial assistance discount, but is no longer working with Northwest Medical Center in good faith to pay off the remaining amount owed. Extraordinary collection activities Once an account is with the collection agency, the following actions may be taken to make sure debt for services and care is paid. They are "Extraordinary Collection Activities:" 1. Seizing the patient's or guarantor's bank account 2. Civil actions 3. Property liens 4. Garnishing of wages 5. Reporting adverse information to credit bureaus Before "Extraordinary Collection Activities" can begin, the account must be reviewed, and approval must be given by Northwest Medical Center Revenue Cycle Leadership. When one of these actions is to be taken against a patient or guarantor, the patient or guarantor will be given a 30-day written notice of the action to be taken. The patient or guarantor will also be informed of the Northwest Medical Center Financial Assistance Policy and how to apply for it. A plain language summary of the Financial Assistance Policy will be included with the notice. ENFORCEMENT Northwest Medical Center staff are expected to uphold the highest ethical standards. All business must be conducted in the name of the caller or Northwest Medical Center. Everything a staff member says must be true and correct using a professional approach. Northwest Medical Center staff as well as all third-party vendors working on behalf of Northwest Medical Center, will uphold and adhere to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

Schedule H, Part VI, Line 3 Patient education of eligibility for assistance	NWMC'S SOCIAL WORKER/PATIENT ADVOCATE EDUCATES PATIENTS AND GUARANTORS ABOUT ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND HELPS THEM TO COMPLETE THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION AND OTHER REQUIRED PAPERWORK. GUIDELINES FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ARE AVAILABLE AT REGISTRATION DESKS AND ARE INCLUDED IN ADMISSION PACKETS.

Schedule H, Part VI, Line 4 Community information	NWMC IS A CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL LOCATED IN ALBANY, MISSOURI, AND OPERATES CLINICS IN ALBANY, GRANT CITY, NEW HAMPTON AND STANBERRY. ITS PRIMARY SERVICE AREA IS PRIMARILY RURAL AND INCLUDES GENTRY, HARRISON AND WORTH COUNTIES LOCATED IN NORTHWEST MISSOURI.

THE ORGANIZATION SUPPORTS A PAYOR MIX OF APPROXIMATELY 69.81% GOVERNMENTAL OR NO-PAY PATIENTS.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 5 Promotion of community health	NWMC is a nonprofit critical access hospital operating to serve a public rather than a private interest and meeting the requirements of Revenue Ruling 69-545. Control of the NWMC rests with its Board, which is primarily composed of members of the community, in addition to a few select employees of NWMC. NWMC accepts patients paying with Medicaid and Medicare and operates an active and generally accessible emergency room open to all patients without regard to ability to pay. NWMC uses surplus funds to improve the quality of patient care, maintain and improve equipment and facilities, extend service offerings to new areas and provide support to the communities it services. NWMC promotes health in the Albany region in numerous ways. NWMC provided direct funding support to the community organizations with like missions including community events and activities of local schools and nursing homes. THE ORGANIZATION IS AFFILIATED, THROUGH A PARENT BOARD, WITH A REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER, A FOUNDATION, AN ACUTE LONG TERM CARE HOSPITAL, AND A COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SOLUTIONS SERVICE, ALL OF WHICH COLLABORATE WITH EDUCATIONAL, GOVERNMENTAL AND LOCAL BUSINESS LEADERS TO IMPLEMENT PROGRAMS TO HELP IMPROVE HEALTH HABITS AND, IN THE LONG-TERM, THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY NWMC. THE PARENT BOARD IS COMPRISED OF COMMUNITY LEADERS WHO REPRESENT THE EDUCATIONAL, MEDICAL, GOVERNMENTAL AND BUSINESS SECTORS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES SPECIALTY RESOURCES AND AFFILIATION WITH THE MAYO CLINIC. THE FOUNDATION OVERSEES A NUMBER OF PROGRAMS WORKING TO IMPROVE HEALTH IN THE NORTHWEST MISSOURI REGION. THE ACUTE LONG TERM CARE HOSPITAL IS A FACILITY DEDICATED TO THE CARE OF PATIENTS WHO HAVE CHRONIC CONDITIONS REQUIRING A LONGER LENGTH OF STAY THAN IS NORMALLY PROVIDED IN AN ACUTE CARE HOSPITAL SETTING. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SOLUTIONS SERVICE WORKS WITH EMPLOYERS IN THE COMMUNITY TO EFFECT HEALTHY CHANGES IN THEIR WORKFORCES. THE 340B DRUG PRICING PROGRAM ("340B PROGRAM") ENABLES SAFETY NET HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS SERVING UNINSURED, VULNERABLE AND INDIGENT POPULATIONS TO PURCHASE OUTPATIENT PRESCRIPTION DRUGS AT A DISCOUNT. NWMC HAS PARTICIPATED IN THIS PROGRAM SINCE 2011. THIS PARTICIPATION HAS GENERATED REVENUE FROM THE CONTRACTED RETAIL PHARMACY RELATIONSHIPS, CURRENTLY THREATENED BY REGULATION CHALLENGES. NWMC HAS RECOGNIZED REDUCED DRUG PRICING FOR OUTPATIENT MEDICATIONS, CURRENTLY THREATENED BY LEGISLATIVE CHALLENGES. BECAUSE OF NWMC'S 340B PROGRAM OUR LOCAL PATIENTS HAVE BENEFITED FROM SAVINGS BY ACCESSING 340B CASH PRICING FOR THEIR MEDICATIONS AT CONTRACTED LOCAL RETAIL PHARMACIES. THE 340B PROGRAM RESULTED IN COMMUNITY SAVINGS WHICH HAS ALLOWED NWMC TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY PROGRAMS.
