Form and Line Reference Explanation
GROUP A, FACILITY 1, GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER - PART V, LINE 5 SECTION B., COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT, LINES 3, 5 AND 6AA: DURING 2014 AND 2015, A CHNA ACROSS A 14-COUNTY AREA WAS COMPLETED BY TRIPP UMBACH THROUGH A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT OF GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER ("GMC- OR THE "HOSPITAL") (WHICH INCLUDES GEISINGER SHAMOKIN AREA COMMUNITY HOSPITAL (GSACH) AND GEISINGER ENCOMPASS HEALTH LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, FORMERLY GEISINGER HEALTHSOUTH REHABILITATION HOSPITAL), EVANGELICAL COMMUNITY HOSPITAL (ECH) AND ALLIED SERVICES INTEGRATED HEALTH SYSTEM (ASIHS), THREE MAJOR PROVIDERS IN STATE COLLEGE, CENTRAL SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY AND NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA. THE CHNA PROCESS INCLUDED INPUT FROM PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL FACILITIES, INCLUDING THOSE WITH SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE. TRIPP UMBACH, HEADQUARTERED IN PITTSBURGH, PA, IS A RECOGNIZED NATIONAL LEADER IN CONDUCTING CHNAS, HAVING CONDUCTED MORE THAN 250 CHNAS OVER THE PAST 20 YEARS. TODAY, MORE THAN 1 IN 5 AMERICANS LIVE IN A COMMUNITY WHERE TRIPP UMBACH HAS COMPLETED A CHNA. PAUL UMBACH, FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT OF TRIPP UMBACH, IS AMONG THE MOST EXPERIENCED COMMUNITY HEALTH PLANNERS IN THE NATION, HAVING DIRECTED PROJECTS IN EVERY STATE AND INTERNATIONALLY. TRIPP UMBACH HAS WRITTEN TWO NATIONAL GUIDE BOOKS ON THE TOPIC OF COMMUNITY HEALTH AND HAS PRESENTED AT MORE THAN 50 STATE AND NATIONAL HEALTH CONFERENCES. THE TRIPP UNBACH TEAM BROUGHT MORE THAN 30 YEARS OF COMBINED EXPERIENCE TO THE PROJECT. CHNA PLANNING: A SERIES OF PLANNING MEETINGS WAS FACILITATED BY TRIPP UMBACH AND THE CHNA OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE, CONSISTING OF REPRESENTATIVES OF EACH OF THE PARTICIPATING HOSPITALS AND ORGANIZATIONS. SECONDARY DATA: THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY IS LARGELY RELATED TO THE CHARACTERISTICS OF ITS RESIDENTS. AN INDIVIDUAL'S AGE, RACE, GENDER, EDUCATION AND ETHNICITY OFTEN DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY IMPACT HEALTH STATUS AND ACCESS TO CARE. TRIPP UMBACH COMPLETED COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF HEALTH STATUS AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC FACTORS RELATED TO THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY RESIDENTS FROM EXISTING DATA SOURCES SUCH AS, STATE AND COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCIES, THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS, THOMPSON REUTERS, CNI, HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020 AND OTHER DATA SOURCES. TRENDING FROM 2012 CHNA: IN 2012, TRIPP UMBACH COMPLETED A CHNA FOR MANY OF THE SAME ORGANIZATIONS IN THE SAME COUNTIES INCLUDED IN THIS STUDY AREA (I.E., CENTRE, COLUMBIA, JUNIATA, LACKAWANNA, LUZERNE, LYCOMING, MIFFLIN, MONTOUR, NORTHUMBERLAND, SCHUYLKILL, SNYDER, SULLIVAN, UNION AND WAYNE COUNTIES). THE DATA SOURCES USED WERE THE SAME DATA SOURCES USED IN THE 2012 CHNA, WHICH MADE IT POSSIBLE TO REVIEW THE TRENDING IN SEVERAL CASES. THE FACTORS THAT COULD NOT BE TRENDED WERE DEFINED AS SECONDARY DATA. INTERVIEWS WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS: TRIPP UMBACH WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE COLLABORATING ORGANIZATIONS TO IDENTIFY LEADERS FROM ORGANIZATIONS THAT: 1) HAD PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTISE, 2) WERE PROFESSIONALS WITH ACCESS TO HEALTH RELATED DATA AND 3) WERE REPRESENTATIVES OF UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS, I.E., CHILDREN, SENIORS, LOW-INCOME RESIDENTS, HOMELESS, DISABLED AND RESIDENTS THAT OF THE LATINO(A), AMISH, AND MENNONITE COMMUNITIES AND UNINSURED RESIDENTS. A SERIES OF 16 INTERVIEWS WERE COMPLETED WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS IN THE COMMUNITY, INCLUDING: PA DEPT. OF HEALTH, PA OFFICE OF RURAL HEALTH, SNYDER COUNTY CHILDREN AND YOUTH SERVICES, CMSU, UNION-SNYDER AGENCY OF AGING, INC., JUNIATA COUNTY, PENN STATE COOPERATIVE EXTENSION, SUSQUEHANNA UNIVERSITY, SHIKELLAMY SCHOOL DISTRICT, CENTRAL PA FOOD BANK, HANDUP FOUNDATION, HIGHER HOPE H2 CHURCH, ST. PAUL'S UCC, GREATER SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY'S YMCA AND UNITED WAY ORGANIZATIONS, WILLIAMSPORT/LYCOMING CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, A LOCAL CLINIC AND GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER. SURVEY OF VULNERABLE POPULATIONS: TRIPP UMBACH AND THE COLLABORATING HOSPITALS WORKED CLOSELY TO ENSURE THAT COMMUNITY MEMBERS, INCLUDING UNDER-REPRESENTED RESIDENTS, WERE INCLUDED IN THE PROCESS. TRIPP UMBACH WORKED WITH THE HOSPITAL ORGANIZATIONS TO DESIGN A 33-QUESTION HEALTH STATUS SURVEY THAT WAS PRESENTED TO AND COLLECTED FROM A TOTAL OF 991 PARTICIPANTS. THE SURVEYS WERE ADMINISTERED BY THE COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS PROVIDING SERVICES TO VULNERABLE POPULATIONS THROUGHOUT THE STUDY AREA, INCLUDING MANY OF THE ORGANIZATIONS LISTED ABOVE. OTHER ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDED BOTH HEAD START PROGRAMS IN MONTOUR AND COLUMBIA- SULLIVAN, THE DENTAL HEALTH CLINIC, SUM CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER, FAMILY HEALTH COUNCIL OF CENTRAL PA-SELINSGROVE, THE VOLUNTEERS IN MEDICINE FREE CLINIC, NHS HUMAN SERVICES, THE EDWARD LEAHY JR. CENTER CLINIC FOR THE UNINSURED, TREHAB, THE WRIGHT CENTER, MIFFLIN-JUNIATA SPECIAL NEEDS CENTER, AREA AGENCY ON AGING, AND MANY OTHERS. THESE ORGANIZATIONS WERE TRAINED TO ADMINISTER THE SURVEY USING HAND-DISTRIBUTION. VULNERABLE POPULATIONS TARGETED BY THE SURVEYS WERE SENIORS, CHILDREN, LOW-INCOME RESIDENTS, HOMELESS, DISABLED, LATINO(A) AND UNINSURED RESIDENTS. PRIORITIZATION OF TOP COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS: TOP HEALTH NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED BY COMMUNITY LEADERS DURING A SERIES OF REGIONAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFICATION FORUMS HELD ON MARCH 10 AND MARCH 12, 2015. THE REGIONAL FORUMS WERE ORGANIZED BY NORTHEAST, CENTRAL AND WEST REGIONS OF THE STUDY AREA. THE CENTRAL REGION FORUM INCLUDED COMMUNITY LEADERS FROM COLUMBIA, MONTOUR, SCHUYLKILL, NORTHUMBERLAND, UNION, SNYDER, LYCOMING AND SULLIVAN COUNTIES. NORTHEAST REGIONAL FORUM INCLUDED COMMUNITY LEADERS FROM LACKAWANNA, LUZERNE AND WAYNE COUNTIES. WEST REGIONAL FORUM INCLUDED COMMUNITY LEADERS FROM JUNIATA, MIFFLIN AND CENTRE COUNTIES. AT EACH FORUM, CONSULTANTS PRESENTED COMMUNITY LEADERS THE CHNA FINDINGS FROM ANALYZING SECONDARY DATA, KEY STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS AND SURVEYS. COMMUNITY LEADERS DISCUSSED THE DATA PRESENTED, SHARED THEIR VISIONS AND PLANS FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT AND IDENTIFIED AND PRIORITIZED THE TOP COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE COMMUNITIES. PUBLIC COMMENT REGARDING THE 2012 CHNA AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN: TRIPP UMBACH SOLICITED PUBLIC COMMENTARY FROM COMMUNITY LEADERS AND RESIDENTS. COMMENTERS WERE PROVIDED ACCESS AND ASKED TO REVIEW THE CHNA AND ACTION PLAN ADOPTED FOR THE FISCAL YEAR BEGINNING JULY 1, 2013. COMMENTERS WERE THEN ASKED TO RESPOND TO A QUESTIONNAIRE WHICH PROVIDED OPEN AND CLOSED RESPONSE QUESTIONS. THE PRIOR CHNA AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN ALONG WITH THE QUESTIONNAIRE WERE OFFERED IN HARD COPY AT TWO LOCATIONS INSIDE THE HOSPITAL AND WERE ALSO PROVIDED ELECTRONICALLY USING A WEB-BASED PLATFORM. THERE WERE NO RESTRICTIONS OR QUALIFICATIONS REQUIRED OF PUBLIC COMMENTERS. FLYERS WERE CIRCULATED AND ELECTRONIC INVITATIONS WERE MADE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS WHICH LASTED FROM DECEMBER 2014 THROUGH FEBRUARY 2015. THROUGHOUT THIS DOCUMENT THE TERMS "SYSTEM- OR "GEISINGER" SHALL REFER TO THE ENTIRE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM COMPRISED OF GEISINGER HEALTH ("GH") AS PARENT AND ALL SUBSIDIARY ENTITIES COMPRISING THE SYSTEM.
GROUP A, FACILITY 1, GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER - PART V, LINE 6A GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER, (WHICH INCLUDES THE GEISINGER SHAMOKIN AREA COMMUNITY HOSPITAL CAMPUS), GEISINGER-BLOOMSBURG HOSPITAL, GEISINGER HEALTH SOUTH REHABILITATION HOSPITAL, EVANGELICAL COMMUNITY HOSPITAL, AND ALLIED SERVICES INTEGRATED HEALTH SYSTEM PARTICIPATED IN THE 2015 CHNA.
GROUP A, FACILITY 1, GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER - PART V, LINE 11 BELOW ARE SYSTEM-WIDE PROGRAMS OFFERED BY GEISINGER TO FULFILL COMMUNITY NEEDS AS IDENTIFIED IN GMC'S 2015 CHNA. SOME PROGRAMS ARE COMPLETELY OPERATED OR FUNDED BY GEISINGER AND OTHERS OFFERED IN COOPERATION WITH LOCAL HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE AGENCIES. THE TOP THREE NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE MOST RECENT AND/OR PAST CHNA SURVEYS FALL INTO ONE OF THREE COMMUNITY NEED CATEGORIES: 1)IMPROVING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE: THE MOST SIGNIFICANT NEED IDENTIFIED WAS FOR BETTER, FASTER, MORE CONVENIENT AND LESS COSTLY ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE SERVICES. GEISINGER IS TAKING INNOVATIVE STEPS TO ADDRESS BARRIERS TO HEALTHCARE AND HELP PROVIDE PHYSICAL, MENTAL, REHABILITATIVE AND PREVENTIVE SERVICES TO PATIENTS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR HEALTH INSURANCE STATUS. THE TOPICS ADDRESSED INCLUDE: HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT DOCTOR, PROVIDER OR FACILITY; SPECIAL SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WITH SPECIFIC NEEDS (SUCH AS THE ELDERLY, UNDERINSURED OR UNINSURED); TRAUMA PREVENTION AND TREATMENT; AND MANY OTHERS. 2)ADDRESSING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE: GEISINGER HAS A WIDE RANGE OF PROGRAMS TO HELP PATIENTS FIND HEALTHCARE SERVICES WHEN THEY ARE FACING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CHALLENGES OR STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION. ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AND OTHER AGING BRAIN ISSUES AS WELL AS ALCOHOLISM AND OPIOID ABUSE ARE ADDRESSED IN A LARGE AND GROWING NUMBER OF PROGRAMS SPECIFICALLY AIMED AT EXPANDING SERVICES. 3)IMPROVING HEALTHY BEHAVIORS: GEISINGER HAS NUMEROUS EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS TO HELP PATIENTS LIVE WELL. EFFORTS INCLUDE COMMUNITY AND OUTREACH PROGRAMS THAT BRING HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS, EDUCATION, NUTRITION AND MEDICATION TO THE PEOPLE. OUR GOAL IS TO ASSIST PATIENTS WITH THEIR HEALTH BEFORE A SERIOUS PROBLEM ARISES SENDING THEM TO THE HOSPITAL. IMPROVING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE COMPLEX CARE, CLOSER TO HOME: COMPREHENSIVE TREATMENTS FOR COMPLEX HEALTH CONDITIONS SUCH AS HEART, LUNG AND KIDNEY DISEASE ARE ROUTINELY FOUND AT LARGE HEALTH FACILITIES. PATIENTS IN THE RURAL COMMUNITIES GEISINGER SERVES HAVE HIGHER RATES OF CHRONIC DISEASE THAN THOSE IN URBAN AREAS. LONG DISTANCES TO HOSPITAL FACILITIES, TRANSPORTATION PROBLEMS AND A LACK OF SPECIALISTS IN THE AREA CAN MAKE IT TOUGH FOR FAMILIES TO ACCESS THE RIGHT CARE. OUR SPECIALISTS TRAVEL SO PATIENTS DON'T HAVE TO, PROVIDING PATIENTS WITH A CONVENIENT WAY TO SEEK THE SPECIALTY CARE THEY NEED, WITHOUT EXCESSIVE DRIVING OR THE CHALLENGES OF SEEKING CARE ONLY AT A HOSPITAL. GEISINGER SPECIALISTS TRAVEL ACROSS THE REGION TO STAFF OUTREACH CLINICS THAT PROVIDE ADVANCED CARE, WHILE KEEPING BETTER TRACK OF PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS. EACH CLINIC IS STAFFED WITH DOCTORS, NURSES AND OTHER HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS AND MANY OFFER DIAGNOSTIC LAB AND IMAGING SERVICES. GEISINGER'S SPECIALTY SERVICES, INCLUDING CARDIOLOGY, DERMATOLOGY, COMPLEX ORTHOPAEDIC AND THORACIC SURGERY AND NEUROSURGERY ARE AVAILABLE IN MORE THAN 30 COMMUNITIES ACROSS NORTHEAST AND CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA (PA). MANY LOCATIONS OFFER SPECIALTY PEDIATRIC AND WOMEN'S HEALTH SERVICES, AS WELL. GEISINGER HEALTH PLAN (GHP): COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE FOR THE UNINSURED AND SENIORS: GHP, A NONPROFIT HMO, OFFERS AFFORDABLE, EASY-TO-USE HEALTH PLANS THAT ARE A LIFELINE FOR THE MOST VULNERABLE IN OUR COMMUNITIES: UNINSURED ADULTS, CHILDREN AND SENIORS, GHP, A NONPROFIT HMO, GHP FAMILY IS AN AFFORDABLE MEDICAL-ASSISTANCE, MANAGED-CARE PLAN THAT OFFERS COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE TO UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED RESIDENTS OF 22 COUNTIES IN PA. MANY SERVICES ARE PROVIDED AT NO COST, INCLUDING DOCTOR'S OFFICE VISITS, EMERGENCY CARE, PREVENTIVE SERVICES (INCLUDING IMMUNIZATIONS AND SCREENINGS), DIABETES CARE, MATERNITY CARE, DENTAL AND VISION SERVICES AND PRESCRIPTION DRUGS. THERE IS ALSO 24-HOUR ACCESS TO E-NURSES AND HEALTH COACHES. GHP KIDS OFFERS HEALTH COVERAGE TO UNINSURED CHILDREN UNDER 20 YEARS OF AGE IN 40 COUNTIES STATEWIDE, THROUGH PA'S CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM (CHIP). FOR MOST CHIP IS FREE AND INCLUDES ROUTINE CHECKUPS AND IMMUNIZATIONS, PRESCRIPTION DRUGS, VISION AND DENTAL SERVICES AND EMERGENCY CARE. FOR SENIORS, NAVIGATING THE COMPLEXITIES OF HEALTHCARE COVERAGE CAN BE OVERWHELMING. GHP OFFERS A DUAL ELIGIBILITY PLAN FOR SENIORS WHO QUALIFY FOR MEDICARE PARTS A AND B COVERAGE AS WELL AS MEDICAID. GEISINGER GOLD SECURE RX IS DESIGNED TO MAKE MEDICAL EXPENSES MORE PREDICTABLE, ALLOW BETTER COORDINATION AMONG PROVIDERS AND LOWER OUT- OF-POCKET EXPENSES FOR SENIORS. THIS USER-FRIENDLY PLAN OFFERS CONVENIENT BENEFITS WITH LOW OR NO MONTHLY PREMIUMS, A SINGLE ID CARD, PRESCRIPTION DRUG COVERAGE, DENTAL AND VISION SERVICES, FITNESS PROGRAMS AND CARE MANAGEMENT NURSES. PROVENHEALTH NAVIGATOR: IS A RESULTS-BASED, TEAM-ORIENTED MEDICAL HOME. A MEDICAL "HOME" IS A PATIENT-CENTERED MODEL OF CARE LED BY THE PATIENT'S PRIMARY DOCTOR AND A TEAM OF HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS WORKING CLOSELY TOGETHER TO ENSURE THE PROPER CARE. THE TEAM OF SPECIALISTS, CARE MANAGERS, PHARMACISTS, SOCIAL WORKERS AND COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSISTANTS WORK WITH THE PATIENT, FAMILY AND CAREGIVERS TO PLAN CARE THAT WILL PREVENT URGENT AND EMERGENT CARE VISITS AND HOSPITALIZATIONS. PROVENHEALTH NAVIGATOR (PHN) IS GEISINGER'S PATIENT-CENTERED MODEL OF CARE COMMITTED TO ENSURING PATIENTS RECEIVE THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF CARE. RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT PATIENTS UNDER THE MEDICAL HOME MODEL STAY HEALTHIER AND SPEND LESS TIME IN THE HOSPITAL. MEDICAL HOME CARE FOCUSED ON MORE FREQUENT DOCTOR VISITS AND CONSISTENT FOLLOW-UP BY THE TEAM, PROVIDES BENEFITS TO PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC ILLNESSES SUCH AS DIABETES AND HEART DISEASE. STUDIES SHOW THAT MEDICAL HOME PATIENTS ARE MORE LIKELY TO MEET HEALTH GOALS, SUCH AS LOWERING BLOOD SUGAR, CHOLESTEROL AND/OR BLOOD PRESSURE. PATIENTS IN OUR MEDICAL HOME PROGRAM ALSO HAVE ACCESS TO DOCTORS AND PHN CARE MANAGER 24/7. OUR CARE MANAGERS HELP PATIENTS NAVIGATE THE COMPLEX ASPECTS OF THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, COORDINATING CARE AND COMMUNICATING WITH THE TEAM OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS. CARE MANAGERS, SOCIAL WORKERS AND COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSISTANTS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE TO HELP OUR PATIENTS OVERCOME SOME OF LIFE'S MOST DIFFICULT CHALLENGES, SUCH AS COPING WITH MENTAL ILLNESS, ADDICTION, ABUSE AND LOSS AND MANAGING DISABILITIES. THEY COUNSEL INDIVIDUALS ON HOW TO COPE MORE EFFECTIVELY WITH THE STRESSES OF EVERYDAY LIFE AND FOCUS ON IMPROVING PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING. THE TEAM ALSO COORDINATES COMMUNITY RESOURCES THAT ARE AVAILABLE AND ASSISTS THE PATIENT AND FAMILY WITH THEIR NEEDS. BY EXPANDING OUR SUCCESSFUL MEDICAL HOME INITIATIVE, WE'RE ENSURING THAT OUR PATIENTS HAVE ACCESS TO THE MOST EFFECTIVE MODELS OF CARE. GEISINGER TELEMEDICINE-HEALTHCARE CLOSER TO HOME: IN OUR 45-COUNTY SERVICE AREA, NEARLY HALF OF OUR PATIENT POPULATION RESIDES IN RURAL AREAS, AND MORE THAN 60 PERCENT OF PATIENTS HAVE ONE OR MORE CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS. OUR TELEMEDICINE PROGRAM ALLOWS PATIENTS TO REMAIN CLOSE TO HOME AND STILL RECEIVE SPECIALIZED CARE. OUR PROGRAM USES HIGH-DEFINITION AUDIO/VIDEO TECHNOLOGY AND TOOLS SUCH AS DIGITAL STETHOSCOPES TO CONNECT REMOTE PATIENTS TO OUR HOSPITALS AND PRIMARY CARE CLINICS, AS WELL AS TO NON-GEISINGER FACILITIES. INPATIENTS ARE DIAGNOSED EARLIER, BEGIN TREATMENT SOONER AND AVOID HOSPITAL TRANSFERS, SINCE THEIR PHYSICIANS CAN CONSULT OUR SPECIALISTS ANYWHERE WITHIN OUR SYSTEM. OUR SPECIALISTS HAVE ACCESS TO PATIENTS AT CLINICS ACROSS THE STATE WITHOUT THE PATIENT TRAVELING TO A HOSPITAL TO SEE THE SPECIALIST. THIS SAVES TIME AND REDUCES THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH TRAVEL AND ALLOWS PATIENTS TO HAVE THE SUPPORT OF LOVED ONES AT HOME. EARLIER DIAGNOSIS AND DETECTION CAN REDUCE COSTS FOR EVERYONE. IT IS AN ADDED TOOL FOR THOSE PROVIDERS, ALLOWING THEM TO REACH OUT TO THE RIGHT SPECIALIST WHEN NEEDED. BY CONNECTING PATIENTS, REGARDLESS OF WHERE THEY LIVE, TO OUR SPECIALISTS, HEALTHCARE IS ACCESSIBLE TO EVERY PATIENT IN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. SUPPORT FOR SENIORS AT HOME: MORE SENIORS ARE CHOOSING TO STAY AT HOME AS THEY AGE. LIFE GEISINGER (LIVING INDEPENDENTLY FOR ELDERS) HELPS SENIORS STAY AT HOME, STAY INDEPENDENT AND STAY HEALTHY. THE LIFE GEISINGER TEAM IS ON CALL 24/7, PROVIDING SUPPORT AND PEACE OF MIND FOR SENIORS AND THEIR LOVED ONES. THE PROVIDER TEAM ASSESSES PATIENTS' NEEDS, DEVELOPS CARE PLANS AND DELIVERS THE SERVICES SENIORS AND FAMILIES NEED TO FEEL SECURE. TRANSPORTATION SERVICES MAKE HOME DELIVERIES OF SUPPLIES AND/OR MEDICATIONS, CARRY SENIORS TO NON-EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND OTHER APPOINTMENTS AS NEEDED AND DELIVER LIFE PARTICIPANTS TO AND FROM OUR ADULT DAY CENTERS FOR SCHEDULED VISITS. SENIOR DAY CENTERS OFFER SENIORS COMPREHENSIVE MEDICAL AND SOCIAL SERVICES AND OPPORTUNITIES TO SOCIALIZE AND EXERCISE. OUR ADULT DAY CENTERS ARE OPEN TO ALL SENIORS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY PARTICIPATE IN LIFE GEISINGER. PROVIDING ACCESS TO MORE AND BETTER OPTIONS FOR HIGH-QUALITY HEALTHCARE, ESPECIALLY FOR OUR MOST VULNERABLE PATIENTS, IS A PRIMARY GOAL ACROSS GEISINGER. HIGH-QUALITY, NON-EMERGENCY CARE: FOR PATIENTS EXPERIENCING A NON-EMERGENT INJURY OR ILLNESS, GEISINGER CARE

Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C - OTHER INCOME BASED CRITERIA FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION FOR ELIGIBILITY MAY CONSIST OF INCOME AND ASSET INFORMATION, INCLUSIVE BUT NOT LIMITED TO: FEDERAL INCOME TAX FORM 1040 FROM THE PRIOR YEAR, PAY STUB COPIES (FROM FOUR PRIOR PAY PERIODS), WRITTEN VERIFICATION OF ANY OTHER INCOME RECEIVED (I.E. SOCIAL SECURITY, ADC, CHILD SUPPORT, ALIMONY, ETC.), CURRENT CREDIT REPORTS AND ASSET VERIFICATION. THE HOSPITAL MAY ALSO UTILIZE INDUSTRY TESTED EXTERNAL ANALYTICAL TOOLS TO QUALIFY PATIENTS FOR UNCOMPENSATED CARE (AKA PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY). GEISINGER PROVIDERS, WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION, CARE FOR ALL EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITIONS TO INDIVIDUALS REGARDLESS OF THEIR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY OR ABILITY TO PAY. IT IS THE POLICY OF GEISINGER HOSPITAL FACILITIES TO COMPLY WITH THE STANDARDS OF THE FEDERAL EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENT AND ACTIVE LABOR TRANSPORT ACT OF 1986 ("EMTLA") AND REGULATIONS IN PROVIDING MEDICAL SCREENING EXAMINATION AND SUCH FURTHER TREATMENT AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO STABILIZE AN EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITION FOR ANY INDIVIDUAL PRESENTING TO THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT SEEKING TREATMENT.
PART I, LINE 6A - RELATED ORGANIZATION INFORMATION COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT: A SUMMARY OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE HOSPITAL AND ITS RELATED CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS IS INCLUDED IN GEISINGER'S ANNUAL REPORT AND IS AVAILABLE AT GEISINGER.ORG AND MADE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC UPON REQUEST. THE REPORT CAN BE FOUND AT: HTTPS://WWW.GEISINGER.ORG/ABOUT- GEISINGER/NEWS-AND-MEDIA/FOR-MEDIA/ANNUAL-REPORTS
PART I, LINE 7G - SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES EXPLANATION THERE ARE NO PHYSICIAN CLINICAL SERVICES INCLUDED IN SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES.
PART I, LINE 7 - COSTING METHODOLOGY EXPLANATION A COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM WAS USED TO DETERMINE THE COSTS REPORTED ON LINE 7 AND ADDRESSED PATIENT SEGMENTS BY PAYOR (E.G. MEDICARE, MEDICAID, COMMERCIAL PAYERS, SELF-PAY, ETC.). A COST TO CHARGE RATIO, CALCULATED PURSUANT TO WORKSHEET 2 OF THE FORM 990 INSTRUCTIONS, WAS USED TO CALCULATE THE COST OF CHARITY CARE.
PART III, LINE 2 - BAD DEBT EXPENSE METHODOLOGY REFER TO THE RESPONSE FOR PART III, LINE 4.
PART III, LINE 3 BAD DEBT EXPENSE, PATIENTS ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE PATIENTS' ACCOUNTS ARE MONITORED THROUGHOUT THE BILLING PROCESS AND ARE RECLASSIFIED TO CHARITY CARE (100% DISCOUNTED CARE) WHENEVER A PATIENT BECOMES ELIGIBLE UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S UNCOMPENSATED OR CHARITY CARE POLICIES. THE HOSPITAL ESTIMATES THAT APPROXIMATELY 23% OF THE BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS ARE SUBSEQUENTLY RECLASSIFIED TO UNCOMPENSATED OR CHARITY CARE.
BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOOTNOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PART III, LINES 2 AND 4: GEISINGER HEALTH AND ITS AFFILIATES ("GEISINGER"), THAT INCLUDES THE HOSPITAL, PREPARE AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. GEISINGER'S ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS (BAD DEBT EXPENSE) METHODOLOGY AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED ACROSS ALL CHARITABLE AFFILIATES. THE ORGANIZATIONS WRITE OFF ALL ACCOUNTS THAT HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS UNCOLLECTABLE. AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTABLE ACCOUNTS IS RECORDED FOR ACCOUNTS NOT YET WRITTEN OFF THAT ARE ANTICIPATED TO BECOME UNCOLLECTABLE IN FUTURE PERIODS. FOR THE FOOTNOTES REGARDING ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, ALLOWANCES, AND BAD DEBT SEE PAGE 9 OF THE ATTACHED GEISINGER CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, JUNE 30, 2018 AND JUNE 30, 2017.
PART III, LINE 8 - MEDICARE EXPLANATION PART III, LINE 3-BAD DEBT: LINE 6 ONLY INCLUDES THOSE COSTS THAT ARE ALLOWED TO BE REPORTED IN THE HOSPITAL'S MEDICARE COST REPORT THAT IS REQUIRED TO BE FILED WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND THE COST OF BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND SHOULD BE INCLUDED ON 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, RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY AND IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD PROMULGATED BY THE IRS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IS THE CURRENT STANDARD FOR A TAX-EXEMPT AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC") 501(C)(3). SATISFYING THE "COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD," AS ARTICULATED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (IRS) IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, IS CURRENTLY REQUIRED FOR A HOSPITAL TO BE RECOGNIZED AS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (IRC) 501(C)(3). THIS RULING REMOVED THE PREVIOUS REQUIREMENT OF REVENUE RULING 56-185, KNOWN AS THE "CHARITY CARE STANDARD," THAT IN ORDER TO BE A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION, A HOSPITAL HAD TO PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY FOR THEIR CARE. THIS EARLIER RULING EMPHASIZED THAT A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE DID NOT MEAN THAT A HOSPITAL WAS CHARITABLE SINCE THAT LEVEL COULD REFLECT THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE SUCH CARE. REVENUE RULING 56-185 ALSO NOTED THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED COMMUNITY HOSPITALS WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY AS CHARITABLE BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY AND A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE WOULD NOT IMPACT A HOSPITAL'S CHARITABLE STATUS IF IT WAS DUE TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY'S LACK OF CHARITABLE DEMANDS. AS DEVELOPED IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, UNDER THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD, HOSPITALS WERE JUDGED ON WHETHER THEY PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF A BROAD CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY. THIS RULING INVOLVED A HOSPITAL THAT ONLY ADMITTED THOSE WHO COULD PAY FOR THE SERVICES EITHER BY THEMSELVES, THROUGH PRIVATE INSURANCE OR PUBLIC PROGRAMS SUCH AS MEDICARE. IN ADDITION, THE HOSPITAL OPERATED A FULL-TIME EMERGENCY ROOM THAT WAS OPEN TO EVERYONE. THE IRS RULED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS CHARITABLE 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 TREASURY REGULATION SECTION 1.501 (C)(3)-1(D)(2). THE IRS RULED THAT THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH, LIKE RELIEF OF POVERTY AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RELIGION, IS ONE OF THE PURPOSES OF 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 THOSE WHO COULD PAY, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT. OTHER FACTORS THAT DEMONSTRATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT INCLUDED: SURPLUS FUNDS WERE USED TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, EXPAND FACILITIES AND ADVANCE MEDICAL TRAINING, EDUCATION AND RESEARCH; AND IT WAS CONTROLLED BY A BOARD OF DIRECTORS THAT CONSISTED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ("AHA") BELIEVES THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALLS) AND BAD DEBT SHOULD BE REPORTED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7. THIS ORGANIZATION AGREES WITH THE AHA'S LETTER TO THE IRS DATED AUGUST 21, 2007 RESPONDING TO A DRAFT OF THE NEW FORM 990 AND SCHEDULE H, THE AHA ARGUED THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALLS) IS COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: -PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY AND SERVING MEDICARE PATIENTS REMAINS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD. -MEDICARE, LIKE MEDICAID, DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE. RECENTLY, MEDICARE REIMBURSES ONLY 92 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR HOSPITALS SPEND TO CARE FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS. -MANY MEDICARE PATIENTS, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 46% OF MEDICARE SPENDING IS FOR BENEFICIARIES WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MANY ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID, SO CALLED -DUAL ELIGIBLES". PENNSYLVANIA REQUIRES NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS TO PROVIDE A MINIMUM LEVEL OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT TO RETAIN EXEMPTION FROM STATE AND LOCAL TAXES. ACCORDING TO STATE GUIDANCE AND CASE LAW, THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF MEDICARE AND BAD DEBT IS CONSIDERED TO BE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR STATE TAX EXEMPTION PURPOSES. PART III, LINE 6 ONLY INCLUDES THOSE COSTS THAT ARE PERMITTED TO BE REPORTED IN THE HOSPITAL'S MEDICARE COST REPORT THAT IS REQUIRED TO BE FILED WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. THE HOSPITAL CONSIDERS THE TOTAL MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) OF 32,427,469 SHOULD BE REPORTED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7. ALONG WITH PROVIDING CARE TO MEDICAID PATIENTS AND PROVIDING FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE TO OTHER LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, THE IRS COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD INCLUDES THE PROVISION OF CARE TO THE ELDERLY AND MEDICARE PATIENTS. LIKE MEDICAID, MEDICARE DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF PROVIDING CARE TO THESE PATIENTS, FORCING THE HOSPITAL TO USE OTHER FUNDS TO COVER THE SHORTFALL. MEDICARE SHORTFALLS MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE ELDERLY IN OUR COMMUNITIES. THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE REGARDLESS OF THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL AND IS THEREBY PROVIDING ACCESS TO MEDICAL SERVICES FOR THE ELDERLY AND RELIEVING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE BURDEN OF PAYING THE FULL COST FOR PROVIDING CARE TO MEDICARE PATIENTS. ABSENT THE MEDICARE PROGRAM, IT IS LIKELY THAT MANY MEDICARE PATIENTS WOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE OR OTHER NEED-BASED GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS. THE AMOUNT EXPENDED TO COVER THE SHORTFALL IS MONEY NOT AVAILABLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT NEEDS. BOTH THE HOSPITAL AND THE AHA BELIEVE THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT BE REPORTED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7. LIKE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALLS), BAD DEBT SHOULD BE REPORTED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE: -A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, WHO FOR MANY REASONS DECLINE TO COMPLETE THE FORMS REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY (FAP). A 2006 CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ("CBO"), "NONPROFIT HOSPITALS AND THE PROVISION OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT", 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 CBO REPORT ALSO NOTED THAT A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF THE BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. UNLIKE BAD DEBT IN OTHER INDUSTRIES, HOSPITAL BAD DEBT IS COMPLICATED BY THE FACT THAT HOSPITALS FOLLOW THEIR CHARITABLE MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TREAT EVERY PATIENT THAT COMES THROUGH THE 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 DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED TO BE DEEMED CHARITY CARE BY AUDITORS. AS A RESULT, ACCORDING TO THE CBO REPORT, ROUGHLY 40% OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. (IN FY 2018, APPROXIMATELY 23% OF THE HOSPITAL'S BAD DEBT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY RECLASSIFIED TO 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 BENEFITS" ASSUMING THE FINDINGS ARE GENERALIZED NATIONALLY. THE EXPERIENCE OF HOSPITALS NATIONWIDE REINFORCE 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 CHARITABLE MISSION AND CHARITABLE PURPOSES. BAD DEBT REPRESENTS PART OF THE BURDEN HOSPITALS' BEAR IN SERVING ALL PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY. IN ADDITION, THE HOSPITAL INVESTS SIGNIFICANT RESOURCES IN SYSTEMS AND STAFF TRAINING TO ASSIST PATIENTS THAT ARE IN NEED OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED 6/30/2018, THE HOSPITAL'S COST OF PROVIDING PATIENT CARE FOR SERVICES ACCOUNTED FOR AS BAD DEBT WAS 3,288,541.
PART III, LINE 9B - COLLECTION PRACTICES EXPLANATION THE HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY AND THE HOSPITAL'S COLLECTION ACTIONS ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED TO ALL PATIENTS. IT IS THE HOSPITAL'S POLICY TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND COUNSELING TO PATIENTS WITH LIMITED FINANCIAL MEANS. A PATIENT MAY BECOME ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT ANY TIME DURING TREATMENT OR DURING THE CONTINUUM OF THE FINANCIAL/BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCESS. IN ANY STAGE OF THE BILLING PROCESS, COLLECTION ACTIONS ARE NOT PURSUED WHENEVER A PATIENT APPLIES AND IS BEING EVALUATED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL THE HOSPITAL FREEZE OR ATTACH BANK ACCOUNTS OF A PATIENT, ENFORCE LIENS, ACTIVELY PURSUE ASSETS FROM A PRIOR JUDGMENT OR GARNISH THE WAGES OF A PATIENT AND/OR FAMILY MEMBER BEFORE DETERMINING IF THE PATIENT IS ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT ENGAGE IN ANY EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS ("ECAS") PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD. THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD IS DEFINED AS A 120-DAY PERIOD OR GREATER, WHICH BEGINS ON THE DATE OF THE 1ST POST-DISCHARGE BILLING STATEMENT, IN WHICH NO ECAS ARE INITIATED AGAINST THE PATIENT. THE HOSPITAL ENSURES REASONABLE EFFORTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO DETERMINE IF A PATIENT IS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY ("FAP") AND ENSURES THAT THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS ARE TAKEN AT LEAST 30 DAYS PRIOR TO INITIATING AN ECA: 1) THE PATIENT IS PROVIDED WITH WRITTEN NOTICE THAT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE FOR ELIGIBLE PATIENTS; IDENTIFIES THE ECAS THAT THE HOSPITAL INTENDS TO TAKE TO OBTAIN PAYMENT FOR CARE; AND STATES A DEADLINE AFTER WHICH ECAS MAY BEGIN. 2) THE PATIENT IS PROVIDED WITH A PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY OF THE FAP; AND 3) REASONABLE EFFORTS ARE MADE TO ORALLY NOTIFY THE PATIENT ABOUT THE FAP AND HOW THE PATIENT MAY OBTAIN ASSISTANCE WITH THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION PROCESS. THE HOSPITAL PROCESSES APPLICATIONS FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DURING THE APPLICATION PERIOD. THE APPLICATION BEGINS ON THE DATE CARE IS PROVIDED AND ENDS ON THE 240TH DAY AFTER THE DATE OF THE 1ST POST-DISCHARGE BILLING STATEMENT.
PART VI, LINE 2 - NEEDS ASSESSMENT DURING 2014 AND 2015, A CHNA ACROSS A 14-COUNTY AREA WAS COMPLETED BY TRIPP UMBACH THROUGH A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT OF GEISINGER MEDICAL CENTER (GMC) (WHICH INCLUDES GEISINGER SHAMOKIN AREA COMMUNITY HOSPITAL AND GEISINGER ENCOMPASS HEALTH LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, FORMERLY GEISINGER HEALTHSOUTH REHABILITATION HOSPITAL), EVANGELICAL COMMUNITY HOSPITAL (ECH) AND ALLIED SERVICES INTEGRATED HEALTH SYSTEM (ASIHS), THREE MAJOR PROVIDERS IN STATE COLLEGE, CENTRAL SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY AND NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA. THE CHNA PROCESS INCLUDED INPUT FROM PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL FACILITIES, INCLUDING THOSE WITH SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE. THE ASSESSMENT ALSO CONSIDERED PUBLIC COMMENTS RELATED TO THE IMPACT OF THE PRIOR CHNA CONDUCTED IN 2012 AND THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN ADOPTED TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED AT THAT TIME. SEE ALSO THE DISCUSSION RELATED TO THE RESPONSE TO PART V, LINE 5.
PART VI, LINE 3 - PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE FOR URGENT AND EMERGENT SERVICES, PATIENTS ARE PROVIDED CARE REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. IN THE EVENT A PATIENT HAS AN EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITION; TREATMENT IS NOT DELAYED TO PERMIT AN INQUIRY REGARDING A PATIENT'S METHOD OF PAYMENT OR INSURANCE STATUS. FOR OTHER THAN URGENT AND EMERGENT SERVICES, THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES UNCOMPENSATED CARE, FREE OF CHARGE, OR ON A 100% DISCOUNTED BASIS, TO THOSE PATIENTS WHO DEMONSTRATE AN INABILITY TO PAY. DEPENDING UPON FAMILY SIZE AND INCOME, FREE OR 100% DISCOUNTED SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE TO A PATIENT WITH FAMILY INCOME OF 300% OR LESS OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES. IT IS THE HOSPITAL'S POLICY TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND FINANCIAL COUNSELING TO PATIENTS OF LIMITED MEANS. A PATIENT MAY BECOME ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT ANY TIME DURING TREATMENT OR DURING THE CONTINUUM OF THE FINANCIAL/BILLING PROCESS. INFORMATION (SIGNS, BROCHURES, ETC.) REGARDING THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICIES ARE PROVIDED AT THE EMERGENCY ROOM, REGISTRATION AND VARIOUS ACCESS POINTS THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITAL. REGISTRATION PERSONNEL ALSO REFER UNINSURED AND/OR LOW INCOME PATIENTS TO FINANCIAL COUNSELORS TO DISCUSS THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. NOTICE OF THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICIES CAN ALSO BE FOUND ON THE GEISINGER WEB SITE AT WWW.GEISINGER.ORG. PATIENTS ARE ALSO PROVIDED INFORMATION ON THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICIES WITH EACH PATIENT BILL. THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY ("FAP"), THE FAP APPLICATION AND PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY ("PLS") ARE AVAILABLE ON-LINE. PAPER COPIES ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST WITHOUT CHARGE BY MAIL OR ARE AVAILABLE AT REGISTRATION AREAS WHICH INCLUDES EMERGENCY ROOMS, ADMITTING AND REGISTRATION DEPARTMENTS, HOSPITAL-BASED CLINICS AND PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENTS. ALL FAP DOCUMENTS ARE AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH AND IN THE PRIMARY LANGUAGE OF POPULATIONS WITH LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENCY ("LEP") THAT CONSTITUTE THE LESSER OF 1,000 INDIVIDUALS OR 5% OF THE HOSPITAL'S SERVICE AREA. SIGNS OR DISPLAYS ARE CONSPICUOUSLY POSTED IN PUBLIC HOSPITAL LOCATIONS INCLUDING THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, ADMISSIONS DEPARTMENT AND REGISTRATION DEPARTMENT THAT INFORM PATIENTS OF THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. ALL PATIENTS ARE OFFERED A COPY OF THE PLS AS PART OF THE INTAKE AND DISCHARGE PROCESSES. ADDITIONALLY, FINANCIAL COUNSELORS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES ARE AVAILABLE TO ASSIST PATIENTS WITH CONCERNS.
PART VI, LINE 4 - COMMUNITY INFORMATION GMC'S SERVICE AREA INCLUDES 31 COUNTIES ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA (BLAIR, BRADFORD, CAMBRIA, CAMERON, CARBON, CENTRE, CLEARFIELD, CLINTON, COLUMBIA, ELK, HUNTINGDON, JEFFERSON, JUNIATA, LACKAWANNA, LUZERNE, LYCOMING, MCKEAN, MIFFLIN, MONROE, MONTOUR, NORTHUMBERLAND, PIKE, POTTER, SCHUYLKILL, SNYDER, SULLIVAN, SUSQUEHANNA, TIOGA, UNION, WAYNE, AND WYOMING). THE APPROXIMATE 2013 TOTAL POPULATION WITHIN THIS SERVICE AREA WAS 2,398,200. THIS POPULATION IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE BY LESS THAN 0.1% BY 2018, WHICH IS LESS THAN THE RATE OF POPULATION GROWTH EXPECTED IN THE STATE (1.0%) AND THE NATION (3.3%). THE 65 AND OVER AGE GROUP IS 18.0% OF THE TOTAL POPULATION, WHICH IS GREATER THAN THE STATE (16.4%) AND NATIONAL (13.9%) PROPORTIONS. ADDITIONALLY, THE 65 AND OVER AGE GROUP IS THE AGE SEGMENT PROJECTED TO EXPERIENCE THE LARGEST FIVE-YEAR POPULATION GROWTH AT 11.7%. THE REGION IS PRIMARILY RURAL. AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD INCOME, IN 2013, WAS 55,932, WITH APPROXIMATELY 14.6% OF THE POPULATION FALLING BELOW FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES IN 2012, WHICH IS A GREATER THAN THE STATE PROPORTION OF 13.7%.

PART VI, LINE 6 - AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM THE HOSPITAL IS AN AFFILIATE WITHIN GEISINGER. AS ONE OF THE NATION'S LARGEST HEALTH SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS, GEISINGER SERVES MORE THAN 3 MILLION RESIDENTS THROUGHOUT 45 COUNTIES IN CENTRAL, SOUTH-CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA, AND IN SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY AT ATLANTICARE. IN 2017, THE GEISINGER COMMONWEALTH SCHOOL OF MEDICINE AND GEISINGER JERSEY SHORE HOSPITAL BECAME THE NEWEST MEMBERS OF THE GEISINGER FAMILY. THE PHYSICIAN- LED SYSTEM IS COMPRISED OF APPROXIMATELY 30,000 EMPLOYEES, INCLUDING NEARLY 1,600 EMPLOYED PHYSICIANS, 13 HOSPITAL CAMPUSES, TWO RESEARCH CENTERS, AND A 583,000-MEMBER HEALTH PLAN, ALL OF WHICH LEVERAGE AN ESTIMATED 12.7 BILLION POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW JERSEY ECONOMIES. HISTORY. GEISINGER HAD ITS BEGINNINGS IN THE SMALL COMMUNITY OF DANVILLE, WHICH IS LOCATED IN CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA ON THE NORTHERN BRANCH OF THE SUSQUEHANNA RIVER. THERE, IN 1915, ABIGAIL A. GEISINGER FOUNDED THE GEORGE F. GEISINGER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL IN MEMORY OF HER HUSBAND. FROM THE BEGINNING, THE NEW HOSPITAL WAS DESIGNED AS A COMPREHENSIVE HEALTHCARE INSTITUTION THAT WOULD OFFER SPECIALIZED MEDICAL CARE TO PEOPLE IN THE RURAL AREAS OF CENTRAL AND NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA. UNLIKE MOST HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS, WHICH EVOLVED WITH A HOSPITAL FOCUS, GEISINGER'S HISTORY AND TRADITION IS THAT OF A PHYSICIAN-LED AND PHYSICIAN-DRIVEN HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATION. THIS TRADITION BEGAN WHEN MRS. GEISINGER BROUGHT DR. HAROLD FOSS, A MAYO CLINIC TRAINED PHYSICIAN, TO BE HER HOSPITAL'S FIRST CHIEF OF STAFF. TODAY, GEISINGER IS REGARDED AS A NATIONAL MODEL OF HEALTHCARE DELIVERY CENTERED ON A SOPHISTICATED MULTISPECIALTY GROUP PRACTICE. SINCE THE 1970S, GEISINGER'S STRATEGY OF INTEGRATING PHYSICIANS AND HOSPITALS EXPANDED TO INCLUDE THE MANAGEMENT OF HEALTH AND THE FINANCING OF HEALTHCARE SERVICES THROUGH ITS WHOLLY CONTROLLED HEALTH MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION, GEISINGER HEALTH PLAN. TWO INDEMNITY HEALTH INSURERS, GEISINGER INDEMNITY INSURANCE COMPANY AND GEISINGER QUALITY OPTIONS, INC. HAVE BEEN ADDED IN RECENT YEARS. CORPORATE STRUCTURE. THE ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE OF THE SYSTEM REFLECTS THE STRATEGIC GOAL OF OPERATING AS A FULLY INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE SYSTEM WHOSE CORPORATE COMPONENTS SHARE THE COMMON GOALS OF MANAGING AND IMPROVING THE HEALTHCARE OF ITS PATIENTS AND MEMBERS, WHILE RECOGNIZING AND RESPECTING THE CORPORATE IDENTITY OF EACH ENTITY. THIS INTEGRATION LINKS THE AREAS OF PHYSICIANS, HOSPITALS/CLINICS, AND HEALTHCARE INSURANCE. SEE SCHEDULE R FOR A LIST OF THE AFFILIATED ORGANIZATIONS COMPRISING GEISINGER
