Form and Line Reference Explanation
Schedule h, part v; section b, questionS 3i ALTHOUGH NOT EXPLICITLY STATED IN THE 2018 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT ("CHNA"), THE ORGANIZATIONS IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY OUTLINES THE IMPACT OF ACTIONS TAKEN TO ADDRESS THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE 2013 CHNA.
Schedule h, part v; section b, questionS 5, 6A, 6B & 11 IN REVIEWING THE INFORMATION THAT FOLLOWS, IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE QUANTITATIVE DATA UTILIZED PRECEDES THE ACTIVITIES OF THE CURRENT COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CHIP), WHILE THE QUALITATIVE WORK COINCIDES WITH THE CHIP WORK FROM 2013-2015. THE TIME DELAY OF THE QUANTITATIVE DATA IS DUE TO THE REPORTING PROCEDURES OF THE DATA SOURCES USED, WHICH ARE STANDARD AMONG RESEARCH AGENCIES. THE DELAY DOES NOT DISRUPT OR NEGATIVELY INFLUENCE THE VALUE OF THE INFORMATION, AS IT ALLOWS ANALYSIS OF THE HEALTH TRENDS THAT ARE PREVALENT IN THE HOSPITAL SERVICE AREA OVER A PERIOD OF SIX YEARS, DEFINING THOSE AREAS THAT ARE THE MOST IMPACTFUL IN THE COMMUNITY. IDENTIFYING PERVASIVE TRENDS AND ALIGNING THEM WITH THE 2013 CHIP FOCUS AREAS WILL LEAD TO THE CREATION OF A MORE ROBUST AND EVIDENCE-BASED 2016 CHIP. DURING THIS PROCESS THE NEW AND EMERGING TRENDS THAT OCCUR THROUGHOUT BOTH THE QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE MEASURES WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE, THERE WAS A PURPOSEFUL DECISION TO FOCUS ON AN UPDATE, RATHER THAN A DUPLICATION OF THE 2012 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA). CONSISTENCY THROUGHOUT THE ASSESSMENT WAS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE, LEADING TO A FOCUS ON THE QUANTITATIVE MEASURES AND KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS, ALLOWING PERVASIVE TRENDS TO EMERGE MORE READILY. THE KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS OF THIS CHNA WERE CONDUCTED WITH MANY OF THE SAME COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS AS THE 2012 CHNA. FURTHERMORE, BY SHIFTING SOME ALLOCATION OF RESOURCES FROM THE ASSESSMENT TO IMPLEMENTATION, THE HOSPITALS CAN CONTINUE FUNDING CURRENT AND FUTURE PROGRAMS, WITH THE INTENTION OF CYCLING THROUGH A COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT EVERY NINE YEARS, IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY LONG-TERM HEALTH CHANGES OVER TIME. THESE DECISIONS REPRESENT THE CORRECT APPROACH TO NOT ONLY EFFECTIVELY EVALUATE THE COMMUNITY, BUT THE RIGHT STRATEGIC APPROACH TO PROVIDING THE ACTUAL IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROGRAMS AND POLICIES THAT AFFECT THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY IN MIDDLESEX AND SOMERSET COUNTIES. UNDER THE 2010 PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT (ACA), NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS MUST CONDUCT A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND IDENTIFY AN IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY TO ADDRESS THOSE NEEDS EVERY THREE YEARS. IN ORDER TO CONTINUE COMPLIANCE WITH THIS REQUIREMENT, SAINT PETERS UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL AND ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL AGAIN TEAMED TOGETHER AND ENGAGED THE RUTGERS UNIVERSITY CENTER FOR STATE HEALTH POLICY (CSHP) TO COMPLETE A SERIES OF MULTI-METHOD ANALYTIC ACTIVITIES TO INFORM THE SECOND ROUND OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. AS PART OF THAT WORK, CSHP CONDUCTED SECONDARY DATA ANALYSES OF THE 2012 BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTOR AND SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM (BRFSS) DATA AND UNIFORM BILLING HOSPITAL DISCHARGE DATA OVER THE PERIOD 2011-2013. A SEPARATE QUALITATIVE PART OF THE PROJECT REACHED OUT TO BROAD CONSTITUENCIES VIA A SERIES OF KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS. FINDINGS CONVERGED IN SEVERAL KEY THEMES ACROSS ALL THREE DATA COMPONENTS. THE HOSPITALS ENGAGED THE RUTGERS UNIVERSITY CENTER FOR STATE HEALTH POLICY (CSHP) TO COMPLETE A SERIES OF MULTI-METHOD ANALYTIC ACTIVITIES TO INFORM THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. AS PART OF THAT WORK, CSHP CONDUCTED SECONDARY DATA ANALYSES OF THE 2012 BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTOR AND SURVEILLANCE ANALYSIS (BRFSS) DATA AND UNIFORM BILLING (UB) HOSPITAL DISCHARGE DATA OVER THE PERIOD 2011-2013. THE ACA ALSO REQUIRES THAT THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT SHOULD INCLUDE "INPUT FROM PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL FACILITY, INCLUDING THOSE WITH SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE OF OR EXPERTISE IN PUBLIC HEALTH" (U.S. CONGRESS. 2010. "THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, PUBLIC LAW 111148." U.S. GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE). THIS WAS ADDRESSED BY THE QUALITATIVE PART OF THE PROJECT THAT REACHED OUT TO BROAD CONSTITUENCIES VIA A SERIES OF KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS. THE INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW BOARD OF RUTGERS UNIVERSITY APPROVED THIS STUDY. FINDINGS FROM ALL THREE OF THESE RESEARCH EFFORTS ARE COMPILED IN THIS REPORT. A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF EACH DATA SOURCE IS PROVIDED BELOW. CHAPTER 1: HEALTH INDICATORS AND RISKY/PREVENTIVE BEHAVIORS: AN ANALYSIS OF 2012 BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTOR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM (BRFSS) (ANALYZED BY CSHP): THIS CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION-SPONSORED SURVEY IS CONDUCTED ANNUALLY BY THE NJ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SENIOR SERVICES. THE BRFSS SUPPORTS ANALYSIS OF A REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLE OF NJ ADULTS AND IS CAPABLE OF GENERATING COUNTY-LEVEL ESTIMATES. CSHP ANALYZED BRFSS DATA FOR COUNTIES INCLUDED IN THE DESIGNATED SERVICE AREA (MIDDLESEX, SOMERSET) AS WELL AS STATEWIDE COMPARATIVE DATA. HEALTH TOPICS OF INTEREST SUCH AS HEALTH STATUS, HEALTH CARE ACCESS AND UTILIZATION, RISKY AND PREVENTIVE BEHAVIORS, ETC., WERE ANALYZED BY KEY DEMOGRAPHICS (AGE, GENDER, RACE/ETHNICITY, INCOME, AND HEALTH INSURANCE STATUS). GENERAL CHANGES IN PATTERNS OVER TIME FROM THE FIRST COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT ARE ALSO NOTED. THIS CHAPTER PRESENTS FINDINGS USING DATA FROM THE 2012 BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTOR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM (BRFSS) FOR MIDDLESEX COUNTY AND SOMERSET COUNTY IN NEW JERSEY (BRFSS DATA IS ONLY AVAILABLE AT THE COUNTY LEVEL SO ALL OF SOMERSET COUNTY IS INCLUDED). THE BRFSS IS AN ANNUAL HEALTH SURVEY CONDUCTED IN ALL 50 STATES, THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, AND THREE TERRITORIES. IT IS OVERSEEN BY THE CDC AND ADMINISTERED BY THE INDIVIDUAL STATES. THE BRFSS WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1984 IN A NUMBER OF STATES, AND NEW JERSEY BEGAN DATA COLLECTION IN 1991. IT IS A RANDOM-DIGIT-DIAL TELEPHONE SURVEY OF NON-INSTITUTIONALIZED ADULTS AGES 18 AND OVER AND PROVIDES TIMELY DATA ON A NUMBER OF HEALTH-RELATED MEASURES INCLUDING HEALTH STATUS, RISK BEHAVIORS, PREVENTIVE BEHAVIORS, AND HEALTH CARE UTILIZATION. DETAILED INFORMATION ON THE BRFSS CAN BE FOUND AT HTTP://WWW.CDC.GOV/BRFSS/. THE 2012 QUESTIONNAIRE CAN BE FOUND AT HTTP://WWW.CDC.GOV/BRFSS/QUESTIONNAIRES/PDF-QUES/2012_BRFSS.PDF. THE 2012 DATA IS THE MOST RECENT BRFSS COUNTY DATA AVAILABLE AT THE TIME OF THIS REPORT. THE FINDINGS PRESENTED INCLUDE DATA FROM 884 ADULTS IN MIDDLESEX COUNTY AND 640 ADULTS IN SOMERSET COUNTY. CHAPTER 2: AVOIDABLE HOSPITALIZATIONS AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS: AN ANALYSIS OF HOSPITAL DISCHARGE DATA (ANALYZED BY CSHP): NEW JERSEY UB DATA SUPPORTS EXAMINATION OF AMBULATORY CARE SENSITIVE HOSPITAL INPATIENT AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT (ED) UTILIZATION THAT REFLECTS INADEQUACY OF PRIMARY CARE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. POPULATION-BASED RATES OF THESE INDICATORS WERE EXAMINED ALONG WITH PATIENT DEMOGRAPHIC AND HEALTH INSURANCE PAYER CHARACTERISTICS. GENERAL TRENDS OVER TIME FROM THE FIRST COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT ARE ALSO NOTED. IN THIS CHAPTER, WE EXAMINE RATES OF SPECIFIC INPATIENT HOSPITALIZATIONS AND TREAT-AND-RELEASE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT (ED) VISITS BY PATIENTS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED OR PREVENTED IF THESE PATIENTS HAD ADEQUATE AVAILABILITY OF PRIMARY CARE WITHIN THEIR COMMUNITIES. WE USE THE ALL-PAYER NEW JERSEY UNIFORM BILLING HOSPITAL DATA TO CALCULATE GEOGRAPHIC AREA-LEVEL RATES OF SUCH AVOIDABLE HOSPITALIZATIONS AND ED VISITS TO ASSESS THE EXTENT OF PRIMARY CARE AVAILABLE WITHIN COMMUNITIES. WE EXAMINE THESE WITHIN THE COMBINED SERVICE AREAS OF HOSPITALS (COMPRISING ALL OF MIDDLESEX COUNTY ALONG WITH THE TOWNSHIPS OF SOMERSET AND FRANKLIN PARK FROM SOMERSET COUNTY) AND COMPARE TO NEW JERSEY OVERALL. WE ALSO EXAMINE THESE RATES BY PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS INCLUDING AGE, GENDER, RACE/ETHNICITY AND HEALTH INSURANCE PAYER, EXAMINE PAYER, RACIAL, AGE AND GENDER DISTRIBUTION OF AVOIDABLE VISITS, AND ALSO ILLUSTRATE VARIATION IN THESE RATES AMONG TOWNSHIPS WITHIN THE HOSPITALS OVERALL SERVICE AREA. AVOIDABLE HOSPITALIZATIONS HAVE BEEN WIDELY USED IN PREVIOUS RESEARCH TO MEASURE ACCESS TO PRIMARY CARE AND DISPARITIES IN HEALTH OUTCOMES (BILLINGS ET AL. 1993; BASU, FRIEDMAN, AND BURSTIN 2004; BINDMAN ET AL. 1995; HOWARD ET AL. 2007). THESE HOSPITALIZATIONS CAN BE USED TO IDENTIFY UNMET COMMUNITY HEALTH CARE NEEDS SINCE THESE CONDITIONS CAN BE AVOIDED BY HIGH QUALITY COMMUNITY BASED PRIMARY CARE (AHRQ 2012A). BASED ON EASILY AVAILABLE HOSPITAL DISCHARGE DATA, THEY ALLOW PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCIES, PROVIDER/PAYER SYSTEMS, AND OTHERS INTERESTED TO ASSESS THE HEALTH CARE QUALITY IN THEIR COMMUNITIES (AHRQ 2012A) AND SUBSEQUENTLY DEVISE TARGETED INTERVENTIONS TO ADDRESS GAPS. THE AVOIDABLE/PREVENTABLE ED VISITS ARE ALSO SIMILARLY USED FOR IDENTIFYING GAPS IN CARE, BUT THEY UTILIZE OUTPATIENT, TREAT-AND-RELEASE VISITS THAT DO NOT RESULT IN AN OVERNIGHT HOSPITAL STAY (BILLINGS, PARIKH, AND MIJANOVICH 2000). THE METHODS USED HERE HAVE BEEN APPLIED SUCCESSFULLY IN SEVERAL OTHER STUDIES (DELIA 2006; BALLARD ET AL. 2010) AND ARE INCLUDED IN THE AGENCY FOR HEALTHCARE RESEARCH AND QUALITY (AHRQ) TOOLKIT FOR MONITORING THE HEALTHCARE SAFETY NET (BILLINGS 2003).

Form and Line Reference Explanation
SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 3C THE INCOME-BASED CRITERIA USED TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY IS PER NEW JERSEY ADMINISTRATIVE CODE 10:52 SUB CHAPTERS 11, 12 AND 13, AND BASED UPON THE 2014 POVERTY GUIDELINES (DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SENIOR SERVICES). FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES (FPG) ARE INCLUDED IN THE CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY AND DISCOUNTED CARE.
SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 6A NOT APPLICABLE.
SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 7G NO COSTS RELATING TO SUBSIDIZED HEALTHCARE SERVICES ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO ANY PHYSICIAN CLINICS.
SCHEDULE H, PART I, QUESTION 7 WORKSHEET 2 WAS USED FOR THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO.
SCHEDULE H, PART II COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN BY THIS ORGANIZATION IMPROVE THE MEDICAL AND SOCIOECONOMIC WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITIES IN OUR CARE. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH SERVICE ON STATE AND REGIONAL ADVOCACY COMMITTEES AND BOARDS, VOLUNTEERISM WITH LOCAL COMMUNITY-BASED NON-PROFIT ADVOCACY GROUPS, AND PARTICIPATION IN CONFERENCES AND OTHER EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES TO PROMOTE UNDERSTANDING OF THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH CONCERNS. THIS ORGANIZATION PROVIDES EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS, CONDUCTS COMMUNITY HEALTH FAIRS AND HOLDS HEALTH EDUCATION SEMINARS AND OUTREACH SESSIONS FOR ITS PATIENTS AND FOR COMMUNITY PROVIDERS. PRESENTATIONS ARE PROVIDED BY PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND OTHER HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A; QUESTIONS 2, 3 & 4 BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED USING THE PROVIDERS' BAD DEBT EXPENSE FROM ITS AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE SAINT PETER'S HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, INC. ("SYSTEM"), INCLUDING ITS HOSPITALS AND SUBSIDIARIES, PREPARE AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE SYSTEM'S ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS (BAD DEBT EXPENSE) METHODOLOGY AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED ACROSS ALL HOSPITAL AFFILIATES. THE ATTACHED TEXT WAS OBTAINED FROM THE FOOTNOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE SAINT PETER'S HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, INC. CHARITY CARE THE SYSTEM PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA DEFINED BY THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH ("DOH") WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ESTABLISHED RATES. BECAUSE THE SYSTEM DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, THEY ARE NOT REPORTED AS REVENUE. THE SYSTEM'S RECORDS IDENTIFY AND MONITOR THE LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE IT PROVIDES AND INCLUDE THE AMOUNT OF CHARGES FORGONE FOR SERVICES AND SUPPLIES FURNISHED. DOH ALLOWS RETROACTIVE APPLICATION FOR CHARITY CARE UP TO TWO YEARS FROM THE DATE OF SERVICE. IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS MISSION AND PHILOSOPHY, THE SYSTEM COMMITS SUBSTANTIAL RESOURCES TO SPONSOR A BROAD RANGE OF SERVICES TO BOTH THE INDIGENT AS WELL AS THE BROADER COMMUNITY. COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROVIDED TO THE INDIGENT INCLUDE THE COST OF PROVIDING SERVICES TO PERSONS WHO CANNOT AFFORD HEALTHCARE DUE TO INADEQUATE RESOURCES AND/OR WHO ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED. THIS TYPE OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT INCLUDES THE COSTS OF: TRADITIONAL CHARITY CARE; UNPAID COSTS OF CARE PROVIDED TO BENEFICIARIES OF MEDICAID AND OTHER INDIGENT PUBLIC PROGRAMS; SERVICES SUCH AS FREE CLINICS AND MEAL PROGRAMS FOR WHICH A PATIENT IS NOT BILLED OR FOR WHICH A NOMINAL FEE HAS BEEN ASSESSED; AND CASH AND IN-KIND DONATIONS OF EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES OR STAFF TIME VOLUNTEERED ON BEHALF OF THE COMMUNITY. COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROVIDED TO THE BROADER COMMUNITY INCLUDE THE COSTS OF PROVIDING SERVICES TO OTHER POPULATIONS WHO MAY NOT QUALIFY AS INDIGENT BUT MAY NEED SPECIAL SERVICES AND SUPPORT. THIS TYPE OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT INCLUDES THE COSTS OF: SERVICES SUCH AS HEALTH PROMOTION AND EDUCATION, HEALTH CLINICS AND SCREENINGS, ALL OF WHICH ARE NOT BILLED OR CAN BE OPERATED ONLY ON A DEFICIT BASIS; UNPAID PORTIONS OF TRAINING HEALTH PROFESSIONAL SUCH AS MEDICAL RESIDENTS, NURSING STUDENTS AND STUDENTS IN ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONS; AND THE UNPAID PORTIONS OF TESTING MEDICAL EQUIPMENT AND CONTROLLED STUDIES OF THERAPEUTIC PROTOCOLS. A SUMMARY OF THE ESTIMATED COST OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROVIDED TO BOTH THE INDIGENT AND THE BROADER COMMUNITY FOLLOWS: 2018(000's) 2017(000's) COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROVIDED TO THE INDIGENT: CHARITY CARE PROVIDED $20,896 $19,987 UNPAID COST OF PUBLIC PROGRAMS, MEDICAID AND OTHER INDIGENT CARE PROGRAMS 9,773 7,896 COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROVIDED TO THE BROADER COMMUNITY: NON-BILLED SERVICES FOR THE COMMUNITY 3,864 4,606 EDUCATION AND RESEARCH PROVIDED FOR THE COMMUNITY 4,754 5,513 --------- --------- ESTIMATED COST OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS $39,287 $38,002 ========= ========= THE COSTS OF CHARITY CARE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITIES ARE DERIVED FROM BOTH ESTIMATED AND ACTUAL DATA. THE ESTIMATED COST OF CHARITY CARE INCLUDES THE DIRECT AND INDIRECT COST OF PROVIDING SUCH SERVICES AND IS ESTIMATED USING THE HOSPITAL'S RATIO OF COST TO GROSS CHARGES, WHICH IS THEN MULTIPLIED BY THE GROSS UNCOMPENSATED CHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING CARE TO CHARITY PATIENTS. THE ESTIMATED COST OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT WAS 8.6 PERCENT AND 8.3 PERCENT OF TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES IN 2018 AND 2017, RESPECTIVELY. THE SYSTEM RECEIVES PAYMENTS FROM THE NEW JERSEY HEALTH CARE SUBSIDY FUNDS FOR CHARITY CARE AND SUCH AMOUNTS TOTALED APPROXIMATELY $3,423,000 AND $3,477,000 FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017, RESPECTIVELY.
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 8 MEDICARE COSTS WERE DERIVED FROM THE 2018 MEDICARE COST REPORT. THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS SHOULD BE 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 INDIVIDUAL'S IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, RELIGION 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 "[T]HE 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 HAD TO PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY FOR IT. 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 "REMOVE[D]" 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 TREAS. 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. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ("AHA") BELIEVES 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 POSITION. AS OUTLINED IN THE AHA 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 BELIEVED 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. RECENTLY, MEDICARE REIMBURSES HOSPITALS ONLY 85 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR THEY SPEND TO TAKE CARE OF MEDICARE PATIENTS. THE MEDICARE PAYMENT ADVISORY COMMISSION ("MEDPAC") IN ITS MARCH 2007 REPORT TO CONGRESS CAUTIONED THAT UNDERPAYMENT WILL GET EVEN WORSE, WITH MARGINS REACHING A 10-YEAR LOW AT NEGATIVE 5.4 PERCENT. - MANY MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 46 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 ELIGIBLES." 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 BELIEVE 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 FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. 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 PERCENT 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 BENEFITS" ASSUMING THE FINDINGS ARE GENERALIZABLE NATIONWIDE; THE EXPERIENCE OF HOSPITALS AROUND THE NATION REINFORCES THAT THEY ARE GENERALIZABLE. AS OUTLINED BY THE AHA, DESPIT
SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 9B ACCOUNTS CONSIDERED TO BE CHARITY CARE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, BUT RATHER, ACCOUNTED FOR AS AN ALLOWANCE. IT IS THE POLICY OF THE SAINT PETER'S UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL'S BUSINESS OFFICE, AND ALL ITS HOSPITAL AFFILIATES, TO TREAT ALL PATIENTS EQUALLY REGARDLESS OF INSURANCE AND THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. FOR ACCOUNTS DETERMINED TO BE "SELF-PAYOR ACCOUNTS WITH BALANCE AFTER PRIMARY INSURANCE PAYMENTS, THE COLLECTION POLICY REQUIRES: SENDING THREE STATEMENTS, A MINIMUM OF ONE PRE-COLLECTION LETTER, TELEPHONE CONTACT FOR ANY ACCOUNT OR AT THE DISCRETION OF THE ACCOUNT REPRESENTATIVE AND/OR SUPERVISOR. THE FACILITY ALSO HAS A CHARITY CARE ACCESS POLICY TO ASSURE PATIENTS ARE PROVIDED WITH CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE DETERMINED BY STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS. IT IS THE POLICY TO INFORM ALL PATIENTS DEEMED SELF-PAY OF THE APPROPRIATE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE. PATIENTS APPLYING FOR CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE WILL BE FINANCIALLY SCREENED BY A RESOURCE ADVISOR TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY ACCORDING TO STATE AND FEDERAL GUIDELINES AND WILL BE INFORMED OF DOCUMENTATION NEEDED TO COMPLETE A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION. PATIENTS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE WILL BE FINANCIALLY COUNSELED FOR ALL OTHER OPTIONS. QUALIFIED PATIENTS WILL BE REFERRED TO ALL APPROPRIATE AGENCIES OR PROGRAMS TO MEET OTHER FINANCIAL NEEDS. AT THE TIME OF THE PATIENT VISIT AND PART OF THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AT THE FACILITY, THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO PATIENTS: - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE INCLUDING MEDICAID AND SSI; - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR THE COMPASSIONATE CARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM; AND, - FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS INCLUDING: 1.

CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B; QUESTION 11B THE ORGANIZATION IS AN AFFILIATE WITHIN THE SAINT PETER'S HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, INC. AND AFFILIATES; A TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM ("SYSTEM"). SAINT PETER'S HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, INC. IS THE TAX-EXEMPT PARENT OF THE SYSTEM. THIS ORGANIZATION'S FEDERAL FORM 990 WAS PROVIDED TO EACH VOTING MEMBER OF ITS GOVERNING BODY (ITS BOARD OF TRUSTEES) PRIOR TO FILING WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE ("IRS"). THE SAINT PETER'S HEALTH CARE SYSTEM, INC. AUDIT AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE HAS ASSUMED THE RESPONSIBILITY TO OVERSEE AND COORDINATE THE FEDERAL FORM 990 PREPARATION, REVIEW AND FILING PROCESS. AS PART OF THE ORGANIZATION'S FEDERAL FORM 990 TAX RETURN PREPARATION PROCESS THE ORGANIZATION HIRED A PROFESSIONAL CPA FIRM WITH EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE IN BOTH HEALTHCARE AND NOT-FOR-PROFIT TAX RETURN PREPARATION TO PREPARE THE FEDERAL FORM 990. THE CPA FIRM'S TAX PROFESSIONALS WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE PERSONNEL AND SYSTEM INDIVIDUALS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, CONTROLLER AND OTHER SYSTEM INDIVIDUALS ("INTERNAL WORKING GROUP") TO OBTAIN THE INFORMATION NEEDED IN ORDER TO PREPARE A COMPLETE AND ACCURATE TAX RETURN. THE CPA FIRM PREPARED A DRAFT FEDERAL FORM 990 AND FURNISHED IT TO THE ORGANIZATION'S INTERNAL WORKING GROUP, INCLUDING THOSE INDIVIDUALS OUTLINED ABOVE, FOR REVIEW. THE ORGANIZATION'S INTERNAL WORKING GROUP REVIEWED THE DRAFT FEDERAL FORM 990 AND DISCUSSED QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS WITH THE CPA FIRM. REVISIONS WERE MADE TO THE DRAFT FEDERAL FORM 990 WHERE NECESSARY AND A FINAL DRAFT WAS FURNISHED BY THE CPA FIRM TO THE ORGANIZATION'S INTERNAL WORKING GROUP FOR FINAL REVIEW AND APPROVAL. FOLLOWING THIS APPROVAL, THE SYSTEM'S AUDIT AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE REVIEWED THE FORM 990 AT A REGULARY SCHEDULED MEETING. FINALLY, THE FINAL FEDERAL FORM 990 WAS PROVIDED TO EACH VOTING MEMBER OF THE ORGANIZATION'S GOVERNING BODY PRIOR TO FILING WITH THE IRS.
CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B; QUESTION 12 THE ORGANIZATION IS AN AFFILIATE WITHIN THE SAINT PETER'S HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, INC. AND AFFILIATES; A TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM ("SYSTEM"). THE ORGANIZATION AND THE SYSTEM REGULARLY MONITOR AND ENFORCE COMPLIANCE WITH ITS CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY. ANNUALLY ALL MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, OFFICERS AND SENIOR MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL ARE REQUIRED TO REVIEW THE EXISTING CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY AND COMPLETE A QUESTIONNAIRE. THE COMPLETED QUESTIONNAIRES ARE RETURNED TO THE ORGANIZATION AND THE SYSTEM'S CHIEF COMPLIANCE OFFICER FOR REVIEW. THE CHIEF COMPLIANCE OFFICER THEN PREPARES A SUMMARY OF THE COMPLETED QUESTIONNAIRES WHICH CONTAINS INFORMATION DISCLOSED BY AN INDIVIDUAL ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. POTENTIAL CONFLICTS WERE THEN REVIEWED AND DISCUSSED AT A MEETING WITH THE SYSTEM'S CHIEF COMPLIANCE OFFICER, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, CONTROLLER AND DIRECTOR OF INTERNAL AUDIT. THE SUMMARY IS PRESENTED TO THE CORPORATE SECRETARY FOR REFERENCE, REVIEW AND DISCUSSION DURING BOARD MEETINGS.
CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B; QUESTION 15 THE ORGANIZATION IS AN AFFILIATE WITHIN THE SAINT PETER'S HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, INC. AND AFFILIATES; A TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM ("SYSTEM"). THE SYSTEM'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES HAS AN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ("COMMITTEE"). THE COMMITTEE HAS ADOPTED A WRITTEN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY WHICH IT FOLLOWS WHEN IT REVIEWS AND APPROVES OF THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF THE ORGANIZATION'S SENIOR MANAGEMENT, INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER AND CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER. THE COMMITTEE REVIEWS THE "TOTAL COMPENSATION" OF THE INDIVIDUALS WHICH IS INTENDED TO INCLUDE BOTH CURRENT AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND ALL EMPLOYEE BENEFITS, BOTH QUALIFIED AND NON-QUALIFIED. THE COMMITTEE'S REVIEW IS DONE ON AT LEAST AN ANNUAL BASIS AND ENSURES THAT THE "TOTAL COMPENSATION" OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT OF THE ORGANIZATION IS REASONABLE. THE ACTIONS TAKEN BY THE COMMITTEE ENABLE THE HOSPITAL TO RECEIVE THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS FOR PURPOSES OF INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 4958 WITH RESPECT TO THE TOTAL COMPENSATION OF CERTAIN MEMBERS OF THE SENIOR MANAGEMENT TEAM, INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER AND CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER. THE THREE FACTORS WHICH MUST BE SATISFIED IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS ARE THE FOLLOWING: 1. THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT IS APPROVED IN ADVANCE BY AN "AUTHORIZED BODY" OF THE APPLICABLE TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION WHICH IS COMPOSED ENTIRELY OF INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT HAVE A "CONFLICT OF INTEREST" WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT; 2. THE AUTHORIZED BODY OBTAINED AND RELIED UPON "APPROPRIATE DATA AS TO COMPARABILITY" PRIOR TO MAKING ITS DETERMINATION; AND 3. THE AUTHORIZED BODY "ADEQUATELY DOCUMENTED THE BASIS FOR ITS DETERMINATION" CONCURRENTLY WITH MAKING THAT DETERMINATION. THE COMMITTEE IS COMPRISED OF MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES EACH OF WHO ARE INDEPENDENT AND ARE FREE FROM ANY CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. THE COMMITTEE RELIED UPON APPROPRIATE COMPARABLE DATA; SPECIFICALLY THE COMMITTEE OBTAINED A WRITTEN COMPENSATION STUDY FROM AN INDEPENDENT FIRM WHICH SPECIALIZES IN THE REVIEWING OF HOSPITAL AND HEALTHCARE SYSTEM EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. THIS STUDY USED COMPARABLE GEOGRAPHIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC MARKET DATA INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SIMILAR SIZED HOSPITALS, # OF LICENSED BEDS AND NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THE COMMITTEE ADEQUATELY DOCUMENTED ITS BASIS FOR ITS DETERMINATION. THE ACTIONS OUTLINED ABOVE WITH RESPECT TO THE COMMITTEE AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS ONLY APPLIES TO CERTAIN SENIOR MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL, INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER AND CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER. THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF CERTAIN OTHER INDIVIDUALS CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 990 ARE REVIEWED ANNUALLY BY THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER WITH ASSISTANCE FROM THE HOSPITAL'S HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INDIVIDUAL'S JOB PERFORMANCE DURING THE YEAR AND IS BASED UPON OTHER OBJECTIVE FACTORS DESIGNED TO ENSURE THAT REASONABLE AND FAIR MARKET VALUE COMPENSATION IS PAID BY THE HOSPITAL. OTHER OBJECTIVE FACTORS INCLUDE MARKET SURVEY DATA FOR COMPARABLE POSITIONS, INDIVIDUAL GOALS AND OBJECTIVES, PERSONNEL REVIEWS, EVALUATIONS, SELF-EVALUATIONS AND PERFORMANCE FEEDBACK MEETINGS.
CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION C; QUESTION 19 THE ORGANIZATION HAS ISSUED TAX-EXEMPT BONDS TO FINANCE VARIOUS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS, RENOVATIONS AND EQUIPMENT. IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ISSUANCE OF THESE TAX-EXEMPT BONDS, THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WERE INCLUDED WITH THE TAX-EXEMPT BOND PROSPECTUS WHICH WAS MADE AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC FOR REVIEW. THE ORGANIZATION'S FILED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND ANY AMENDMENTS CAN BE OBTAINED AND REVIEWED THROUGH THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY.
CORE FORM, PART VII AND SCHEDULE J CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS WERE REPORTED AS OFFICERS ON THE PREVIOUS FORM 990, CORE FORM, PART VII AND SCHEDULE J.

HOWEVER, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THESE INDIVIDUALS SATISFY THE CRITERIA TO BE CLASSIFIED AS A KEY EMPLOYEE FOR FORM 990 REPORTING PURPOSES. ACCORDINGLY, CORE FORM, PART VII OF THIS FORM 990 HAS BEEN UPDATED TO REPORT THESE INDIVIDUALS AS KEY EMPLOYEES OF THE ORGANIZATION.

THE GUIDANCE ALSO MODIFIES REQUIRED DISCLOSURES AND REPORTING RELATED TO NET ASSETS, INVESTMENT EXPENSES AND QUALITATIVE INFORMATION REGARDING LIQUIDITY. NFPS ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO REPORT ALL EXPENSES BY BOTH FUNCTIONAL AND NATURAL CLASSIFICATION IN ONE LOCATION. THE PROVISIONS OF ASU 2016-14 ARE EFFECTIVE FOR THE SYSTEM FOR ANNUAL PERIODS BEGINNING AFTER DECEMBER 15, 2017.
