DUE TO THE LONG HISTORY OF CHILDREN'S WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY, THE HEALTH NEEDS UNCOVERED IN THE ASSESSMENT WERE NOT UNEXPECTED. EACH OF THE 10 NEEDS IS ACTIVELY BEING ADDRESSED IN SOME CAPACITY BY EXISTING AND ONGOING PROGRAMS AND SERVICES OF CHILDREN'S. THERE ARE MANY ORGANIZATIONS IN THE COMMUNITY THAT ARE ADDRESSING THESE NEEDS, AS WELL. DUE TO LIMITED RESOURCES AND THE EXTRAORDINARY COST OF PROVIDING HIGHLY SPECIALIZED CARE TO CHILDREN THROUGHOUT GEORGIA, THE CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY IS FOCUSED ON LEVERAGING EXISTING PROGRAMS, SERVICES AND RESOURCES, WHERE POSSIBLE, AND FOCUSES ON THE HEALTH NEED PRIORITIES OF CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WHO RESIDE IN OUR 18-COUNTY, METROPOLITAN ATLANTA PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SERVICE AREA COMMUNITIES. IN ADDITION TO LEVERAGING EXISTING PROGRAMS, OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS, CHILDREN'S WILL PLACE SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON FOUR OF THE TOP FIVE NEEDS, AS THESE TIGHTLY ALIGN WITH OUR STRATEGIC PLAN. THESE NEEDS ARE: - PROVIDE COORDINATION AND CONTINUITY OF SERVICES THROUGH "MEDICAL HOMES" - ENHANCE PARTNERSHIPS TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES - PROVIDE ACCESS TO SUBSPECIALTY SERVICES - DEVELOP PROGRAMS TO COORDINATE THE TRANSITION OF CARE TO ADULTHOOD

501(r) AUDIT IN 2018 THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE RANDOMLY SELECTED EGLESTON CHILDRENS HOSPITAL AT EMORY UNIVERSITY AND SCOTTISH RITE CHILDRENS HOSPITAL (COLLECTIVELY, THE "HOSPITALS") TO EVALUATE COMPLIANCE WITH TREASURY REGULATIONS (501(R). CHILDRENS MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO LEARN ABOUT PROPOSED AND NEW REGULATIONS AND TO ADOPT THE NEW REQUIREMENTS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BEFORE THE REQUIRED DUE DATES. WHEN SUBMITTING ITS 2015 IRS FORM 990, CHILDRENS REVIEWED THE PROPOSED AND FINAL 501(R) REGULATIONS, AND MADE EVERY EFFORT TO COMPLY. IT WAS ONLY DURING THE IRS EXAMINATION THAT CHILDRENS WAS MADE AWARE OF ITEMS NEEDING FURTHER CLARITY AND SOME MISSING ITEMS. THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND THE PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY AS POSTED ON THE HOSPITALS WEBSITE DID NOT INCLUDE SUFFICIENT DETAIL REGARDING THE SPECIFIC STEPS A PARENT NEEDS TO TAKE TO APPLY FOR CHILDREN'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. LINKS TO OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY NEEDED TO BE UPDATED AS A RESULT OF WEB SITE DEVELOPMENT. THE AUDITOR ALSO QUESTIONED WHETHER OUR LISTINGS OF PHYSICIANS PARTICIPATING AND NOT PARTICIPATING IN OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM WERE COMPLETE. UPON BRINGING ATTENTION TO THESE MATTERS, CHILDREN'S IMMEDIATELY REVIEWED THE FINDINGS AND MADE THE NECESSARY CHANGES WHERE APPROPRIATE. THE AUDITOR WAS SUBSEQUENTLY PROVIDED WITH THE UPDATED DOCUMENTS AND LINKS AND INFORMED US THAT THE AUDIT WAS COMPLETE AND NO MORE ACTIONS WERE NEEDED BY CHILDREN'S.

WE WILL REPEAT THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROCESS EVERY THREE YEARS AND REPORT THE RESULTS OF OUR ASSESSMENT ON THE CHILDREN'S WEBSITE IN ACCORDANCE WITH IRS REGULATIONS. OUR COMMUNITY OF FOCUS THE 2016 CHNA FOCUSED ON IDENTIFYING PEDIATRIC HEALTHCARE NEEDS IN THE METROPOLITAN ATLANTA REGION, FOCUSING SPECIFICALLY ON THE 18-COUNTY PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SERVICE AREAS THAT ACCOUNTED FOR 77 PERCENT OF ADMISSIONS, 97 PERCENT OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS AND 92 PERCENT OF OUTPATIENT VISITS TO CHILDREN'S DURING 2015. THESE 18 COUNTIES ARE BARTOW, CARROLL, CHEROKEE, CLAYTON, COBB, COWETA, DEKALB, DOUGLAS, FAYETTE, FORSYTH, FULTON, GWINNETT, HALL, HENRY, NEWTON, PAULDING, ROCKDALE AND WALTON. PROCESS AND DATA SOURCES BUILDING ON EXTENSIVE WORK CONDUCTED IN THE 2013 CHNA, THE 2016 CHNA PROCESS USED A SURVEY TO VALIDATE THE TOP NEEDS AND DETERMINE WHETHER ANY NEW NEEDS HAD EMERGED IN THE THREE YEARS BETWEEN ASSESSMENTS. THE SURVEY WAS COMPLETED BY 79 INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING THE INTERESTS OF THE PEDIATRIC HEALTHCARE COMMUNITY IN THE GREATER METROPOLITAN ATLANTA REGION, INCLUDING SEVERAL PARTICIPANTS FROM THE ORIGINAL 2013 ASSESSMENT.

THESE INDIVIDUALS REPRESENT DIVERSE HEALTHCARE BACKGROUNDS, INCLUDING COMMUNITY LEADERS, PHYSICIANS, CHILDREN'S HEALTHCARE OF ATLANTA EMPLOYEES AND FAMILY ADVISORY COUNCIL MEMBERS.

EACH CONTRIBUTOR WAS ASKED TO RANK THE PEDIATRIC COMMUNITY HEALTH NEED PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED IN 2013 ON AN ORDINAL SCALE WITH 1 BEING THE HIGHEST PRIORITY AND 10 BEING THE LOWEST PRIORITY.
