IN 2016, LURIE CHILDREN'S WAS NAMED A LEVEL I PEDIATRIC SURGERY CENTER BY THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS (ACS), BECOMING THE FIRST CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL IN ILLINOIS TO EARN THIS STATUS. SO FAR, ONLY TWO OTHER PEDIATRIC HOSPITALS IN THE COUNTRY HAVE ACHIEVED THIS VERIFICATION. LEVEL I VERIFICATION - THE HIGHEST OF THREE - IS AWARDED BY A MULTI-ORGANIZATIONAL TASKFORCE LED BY THE ACS, THE BODY RESPONSIBLE FOR SETTING THE NATION'S STANDARDS FOR QUALITY OF SURGICAL CARE, PRACTICE AND TRAINING. ALSO IN 2016, LURIE CHILDREN'S WAS ONE OF ONLY 12 CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS NATIONWIDE - AND THE ONLY ONE IN ILLINOIS - TO BE RECOGNIZED AS A "TOP HOSPITAL" FOR PATIENT SAFETY BY THE LEAPFROG GROUP, A NATIONAL CONSORTIUM OF HEALTHCARE PAYERS THAT PROMOTES "LEAPS" IN PATIENT SAFETY. THE AWARD IS BASED ON A HOSPITAL'S PERFORMANCE IN PATIENT SAFETY AND CARE QUALITY. IN FY 2019, LURIE CHILDREN'S, THROUGH MORE THAN 808,200 PATIENT VISITS, SERVED MORE THAN 220,100 CHILDREN WHO CAME FROM ALL OVER THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AND BEYOND TO ACCESS THE MORE THAN 70 SPECIALTIES OFFERED BY LURIE CHILDREN'S. LURIE CHILDREN'S IS THE LARGEST PROVIDER OF MEDICAID SERVICES TO ILLINOIS CHILDREN. LURIE CHILDREN'S PEDIATRIC-SPECIALIST PHYSICIANS PROVIDE MORE SPECIALTY CARE TO CHILDREN INSURED BY THE STATE OF ILLINOIS' ALL KIDS (MEDICAID) PROGRAM THAN ANY OTHER SPECIALTY CARE PROVIDER.

FORM 990, SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4 INTENDED USE OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS LURIE CHILDREN'S ENDOWMENT FUND CONSISTS OF INDIVIDUAL DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS AND FUNDS DESIGNATED BY ITS BOARD TO FUNCTION AS ENDOWMENTS. THE NET ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH ENDOWMENT FUNDS, INCLUDING THOSE FUNDS DESIGNATED BY THE BOARD TO FUNCTION AS ENDOWMENTS, ARE CLASSIFIED AND REPORTED BASED ON THE EXISTENCE OR ABSENCE OF DONOR-IMPOSED RESTRICTIONS. EFFECTIVE JUNE 30, 2009, ILLINOIS PASSED UNIFORM PRUDENT MANAGEMENT OF INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS ACT ("UPMIFA"). LURIE CHILDREN'S HAS, AFTER OBTAINING ADVICE OF OUTSIDE COUNSEL, INTERPRETED UPMIFA AS SUSTAINING THE PRESERVATION OF THE ORIGINAL GIFT AS OF THE GIFT DATE OF THE DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS ABSENT EXPLICIT DONOR STIPULATIONS TO THE CONTRARY. AS A RESULT OF THIS INTERPRETATION, LURIE CHILDREN'S CLASSIFIES AS PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS, (A) THE ORIGINAL VALUE OF GIFTS DONATED TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT, (B) THE ORIGINAL VALUE OF SUBSEQUENT GIFTS TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT, AND (C) ACCUMULATIONS TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DIRECTION OF THE APPLICABLE DONOR GIFT INSTRUMENT AT THE TIME THE ACCUMULATION IS ADDED TO THE FUND. THE REMAINING PORTION OF THE DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUND THAT IS NOT CLASSIFIED IN PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS IS CLASSIFIED AS TEMPORARILY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS UNTIL THOSE AMOUNTS ARE APPROPRIATED FOR EXPENDITURE BY LURIE CHILDREN'S IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH THE DONOR INTENT AND STANDARD OF PRUDENCE PRESCRIBED BY UPMIFA. WHERE THE BOARD DESIGNATES UNRESTRICTED FUNDS TO FUNCTION AS ENDOWMENTS THEY ARE CLASSIFIED AS UNRESTRICTED NET ASSETS.

Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART V, SECTION B, LINE 2 N/A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 3J N/A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5 EVERY THREE YEARS, ANN & ROBERT H. LURIE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF CHICAGO ("LURIE CHILDREN'S") WORKS WITH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL EXPERTS ON CHILD HEALTH TO DEVELOP A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT ("CHNA") AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. THE MOST RECENT CHNA WAS COMPLETED IN 2019 AND THE FULL REPORT IS PUBLICLY AVAILABLE ONLINE AT LURIECHILDRENS.ORG/CHNA. THE GOALS OF THIS EFFORT ARE (1) TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE HEALTH NEEDS OF CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS IN CHICAGO, (2) TO GUIDE LURIE CHILDRENS CONTINUING EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF YOUTH, CONSISTENT WITH OUR LONGSTANDING MISSION, AND (3) TO ADVANCE HEALTH EQUITY FOR YOUTH AND THEIR FAMILIES. IN ADDITION TO DEVELOPMENT OF OUR OWN COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT, LURIE CHILDRENS PARTICIPATED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE COLLABORATIVE CHNA (ALLHEALTHEQUITY.ORG/PROJECTS/2019-CHNA-REPORTS) SPEARHEADED BY THE ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY, A COLLABORATIVE OF HOSPITALS/HEALTH SYSTEMS WORKING WITH HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND REGIONAL AND COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS TO IMPROVE HEALTH EQUITY, WELLNESS AND QUALITY OF LIFE ACROSS CHICAGO AND SUBURBAN COOK COUNTY. THE ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY WAS DEVELOPED SO THAT PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATIONS CAN COLLABORATIVELY ASSESS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS, COLLECTIVELY DEVELOP SHARED IMPLEMENTATION PLANS TO ADDRESS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS, MORE EFFICIENTLY SHARE RESOURCES, AND HAVE A GREATER IMPACT ON THE LARGE POPULATION RESIDING IN COOK COUNTY. CURRENTLY, 37 HOSPITALS, SIX LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS INCLUDING CHICAGO DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH (CDPH) AND COOK COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH (CCDPH), AND NEARLY 100 COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS ARE PARTICIPATING. LURIE CHILDRENS PARTICIPATED IN AN ADVISORY ROLE AS A MEMBER OF THE ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY STEERING COMMITTEE. IN ADDITION, LURIE CHILDRENS PARTICIPATED IN AND CONTRIBUTED TO THE COLLABORATIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT SUBCOMMITTEE, AND ALSO TO AD HOC WORK GROUPS FOCUSED ON DATA VISUALIZATIONS AND COPY EDITING, PROVIDING FEEDBACK AND GUIDANCE ON VARIOUS COLLABORATIVE CHNA ACTIVITIES (E.G., COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, SURVEY DEVELOPMENT AND DISSEMINATION, AND RECRUITING AND FACILITATING FOCUS GROUPS. LURIE CHILDRENS CONTINUES TO BE ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN VARIOUS WORKGROUPS (E.G., COMMUNITY SAFETY, DATA, FOOD ACCESS, HOUSING, POLICY, TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH), ENSURING THAT THE YOUTH-FOCUSED PERSPECTIVE IS WELL-REPRESENTED. IN ADDITION TO LURIE CHILDRENS PARTICIPATION IN THE ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITYS COLLABORATIVE CHNA, LURIE CHILDRENS CONDUCTED A CONCURRENT NEEDS ASSESSMENT BETWEEN MARCH 2018 AND JULY 2019 WITH A FOCUS ON OUR SERVICE AREA AND PRIORITY POPULATION. THIS ASSESSMENT WAS CONDUCTED BY LURIE CHILDRENS HEALTHY COMMUNITIES, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LURIE CHILDRENS DEPARTMENT OF DATA ANALYTICS AND REPORTING. TWO ADVISORY GROUPS PROVIDED OVERSIGHT AND GUIDANCE ON THE CHNA: LURIE CHILDRENS HEALTHY COMMUNITIES INTERNAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE AND LURIE CHILDRENS HEALTHY COMMUNITIES EXTERNAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE.

PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6A N/A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6B N/A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7D N/A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11 AS A LEADING PEDIATRIC PROVIDER, LURIE CHILDRENS SERVES PATIENTS AND FAMILIES FROM EVERY STATE IN THE UNITED STATES AND 58 COUNTRIES ACROSS THE WORLD. AS A PEDIATRIC LEADER IN CHICAGO, THE HIGHEST VOLUME OF PATIENTS COME FROM OUR VERY OWN COMMUNITY. NEARLY 44 PERCENT OF OUR PATIENTS LIVE IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO ANNUALLY, LURIE CHILDRENS PROVIDES HEALTHCARE SERVICES, FROM PRIMARY CARE TO SUBSPECIALTY CARE, TO OVER 90,000 CHICAGOANS 0-19 YEARS OLD. FOR THIS REASON AND THE FACT THAT LURIE CHILDRENS IS LOCATED IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO, WE DEFINE OUR SERVICE AREA COMMUNITY FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE ASSESSMENT AS THE CITY OF CHICAGO (FIGURE 5). OVER 97 PERCENT OF PATIENTS ARE 0-19 YEARS OLD, AND THEREFORE OUR PRIORITY POPULATION FOR THE CHNA IS INFANTS, CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS 0-19 YEARS OLD. DATA ARE PRESENTED FOR THIS GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION, WHERE AVAILABLE, AND NOTED WHEN DATA FALL OUTSIDE OF OUR SERVICE AREA AND PRIORITY POPULATION. DATA WAS INCLUDED IN SOME INSTANCES FOR ADULT POPULATIONS, WHEN PEDIATRIC DATA WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND WHERE FAMILY/COMMUNITY CONTEXT IMPACTS CHILD HEALTH. IN LINE WITH GOOD PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE, THE CHNA ANALYSIS BEGAN WITH A REVIEW OF THE LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH AND HOSPITALIZATION FOR CHICAGO CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS TO ASSURE THAT THE FULL RANGE OF SERIOUS HEALTH RISKS WAS CONSIDERED. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DATA FROM A DIVERSE RANGE OF SOURCES WERE UTILIZED FOR ROBUST DATA ANALYSIS AND TO IDENTIFY COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IN CHICAGO. THESE INCLUDED: COMMUNITY INPUT SURVEYS, COMMUNITY RESIDENT FOCUS GROUPS AND LEARNING MAP SESSIONS, HEALTHCARE AND SOCIAL SERVICE PROVIDER FOCUS GROUPS, TWO STAKEHOLDER ASSESSMENTS LED BY PARTNER HEALTH DEPARTMENTS-FORCES OF CHANGE ASSESSMENT AND HEALTH EQUITY CAPACITY ASSESSMENT, ADDITIONAL AND VARIOUS STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS AND FOCUS GROUPS, PEER-REVIEWED LITERATURE AND WHITE PAPERS, EXISTING ASSESSMENTS AND PLANS FOCUSED ON KEY TOPIC AREAS, LOCALIZED DATA COMPILED BY SEVERAL AGENCIES INCLUDING CHICAGO DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT, CHICAGO METROPOLITAN AGENCY FOR PLANNING, HOUSING AUTHORITY OF COOK COUNTY, AND STATE AND LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENTS, LOCALIZED DATA COMPILED BY COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS, INCLUDING GREATER CHICAGO FOOD DEPOSITORY AND VOICES OF CHILD HEALTH IN CHICAGO, HOSPITALIZATION AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT ENCOUNTER DATA PROVIDED BY ILLINOIS HEALTH AND HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION AND ANALYZED BY THE CONDUENT HEALTHY COMMUNITIES INSTITUTE, DATA COMPILED BY STATE AGENCIES AND FEDERAL SOURCES. HEALTH INEQUITIES AND THEIR UNDERLYING ROOT CAUSES ARE HIGHLIGHTED AND DISCUSSED THROUGHOUT THE ASSESSMENT. THE ASSESSMENT IDENTIFIED FIVE PRIORITY DOMAINS, INCLUDING TWO PRIMARY DRIVERS: (1) SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH AND (2) ACCESS TO CARE, PLUS THREE HEALTH DOMAINS: (3) CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS, (4) MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, AND (5) UNINTENTIONAL INJURY AND VIOLENCE. BELOW IS A SUMMARY OF THE CHNA PRIORITIES, AND LURIE CHILDRENS EFFORTS TO ADDRESS THEM, INCLUDING WORK FROM THE 2017-2019 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AND PLANS FOR THE 2020-2022 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. A DETAILED PROGRESS REPORT IS INCLUDED AS AN APPENDIX IN THE 2019 CHNA PUBLICLY PUBLISHED AT LURIECHILDRENS.ORG/CHNA. THE FULL 2020-2022 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY IS ALSO AVAILABLE AT LURIECHILDRENS.ORG/CHNA. PRIMARY DRIVERS: SOCIAL DETERMINANTS/INFLUENCERS OF HEALTH AND ACCESS TO CARE ACCORDING TO THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION, THE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS INTO WHICH PEOPLE ARE BORN, LIVE, WORK, AND AGE. THESE FACTORS INCLUDE ECONOMIC STABILITY, EDUCATION, NEIGHBORHOOD AND BUILT ENVIRONMENT, SOCIAL AND COMMUNITY CONTEXT, AND ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE. RESEARCH HAS LONG ESTABLISHED THAT SOCIAL INFLUENCERS OF HEALTH ARE PRIMARY DRIVERS OF HEALTH OUTCOMES. FOR EXAMPLE, CHILDREN BORN TO MOTHERS WITHOUT A HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION ARE TWICE AS LIKELY TO DIE BEFORE THEIR FIRST BIRTHDAY AS CHILDREN BORN TO MOTHERS WHO ARE COLLEGE GRADUATES; SELF-REPORTED POOR HEALTH INCREASES WITH DECREASING LEVELS OF INCOME AND EDUCATION; AND LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS ARE MORE LIKELY TO HAVE A CHRONIC DISEASE. LURIE CHILDRENS HAS BEGUN A PROCESS TO EXPAND SCREENING OF PATIENTS FOR SOCIAL DETERMINANTS/INFLUENCERS OF HEALTH, AND TO PROVIDE RESOURCES TO HELP ADDRESS THESE ISSUES. ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE IS BROADLY DEFINED BY THE INSTITUTE OF MEDICINE AS THE "THE TIMELY USE OF PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICES TO ACHIEVE THE BEST HEALTH OUTCOMES." HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020 DESCRIBES THE THREE STEPS REQUIRED FOR AN INDIVIDUAL TO ACCESS HEALTHCARE SERVICES: (1) GAINING ENTRY INTO THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, (2) ACCESSING A LOCATION WHERE NEEDED HEALTHCARE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED, AND (3) FINDING A HEALTHCARE PROVIDER WHOM THE PATIENT TRUSTS AND CAN COMMUNICATE WITH. THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLEX FACTORS THAT FURTHER INFLUENCE ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE INCLUDING PROXIMITY, AFFORDABILITY, AVAILABILITY, CONVENIENCE, ACCOMMODATION, RELIABILITY, QUALITY, ACCEPTABILITY, OPENNESS, CULTURAL RESPONSIVENESS, APPROPRIATENESS AND APPROACHABILITY. LURIE CHILDRENS MOST SIGNIFICANT PARTNERS IN PROVIDING PRIMARY CLINICAL AND BEHAVIOR HEALTHCARE TO CHILDREN IN LOW/VERY LOW CHILD OPPORTUNITY NEIGHBORHOODS ARE FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS (FQHCS). FQHCS HAVE AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN ELIMINATING DISPARITIES IN ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE AND ARE LOCATED THROUGHOUT CHICAGO. TO ADDRESS THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS/INFLUENCERS OF HEALTH AND ACCESS TO CARE, LURIE CHILDRENS UNDERTOOK SEVERAL INITIATIVES BETWEEN 2017-2019, INCLUDING: * ASSUMING LEADERSHIP ROLES IN WEST SIDE UNITED, A GROUP OF HOSPITALS, FUNDERS, TECHNICAL AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS WORKING TOGETHER ON ECONOMIC VITALITY, POPULATION HEALTH AND COMMUNITY-DRIVEN INITIATIVES TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF INDIVIDUALS WHO LIVE ON THE WEST SIDE OF CHICAGO. THE GOAL OF THIS COLLABORATIVE IS TO COORDINATE THE EFFORTS EACH INDIVIDUAL HOSPITAL IS UNDERTAKING TO MAXIMIZE OVERALL POSITIVE IMPACT AND IMPROVE HEALTH EQUITY WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF LOWERING THE 16-YEAR LIFE EXPECTANCY GAP BETWEEN CHICAGOS LOOP AND THE WEST SIDE. * LURIE CHILDRENS IS ONE OF 10 CHICAGO HOSPITALS TO JOIN FORCES WITH U.S. SENATOR DICK DURBIN (D-IL) TO REDUCE VIOLENCE AS PART OF THE CHICAGO HOSPITAL ENGAGEMENT, ACTION AND LEADERSHIP (HEAL) INITIATIVE. SENATOR DURBIN LAUNCHED THE CHICAGO HEAL INITIATIVE IN OCTOBER 2018 TO BRING TOGETHER HOSPITALS TO MAKE TANGIBLE COMMITMENTS TO REDUCE GUN VIOLENCE, HEAL THE PHYSICAL AND MENTAL TRAUMA THAT VIOLENCE INFLICTS ON VICTIMS, INCREASE WELL-PAYING JOBS, AND CREATE OTHER ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS THEY SERVE. * IN 2018, LURIE CHILDRENS BECAME THE THIRD CHILDRENS HOSPITAL IN THE COUNTRY TO JOIN THE DEMOCRACY COLLABORATIVES HEALTHCARE ANCHOR NETWORK (WWW.HEALTHCAREANCHOR.NETWORK), A GROUP OF HOSPITALS AND HEALTH SYSTEMS COMMITTED TO BUILDING MORE INCLUSIVE AND SUSTAINABLE LOCAL ECONOMIES. THIS GROUP SHARES INNOVATIVE IDEAS AND BEST PRACTICES TO EXPAND HOSPITALS ROLE AS ANCHOR INSTITUTIONS BY EXPAND COMMUNITY HIRING, PROCUREMENT AND INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES. *TO ENSURE THAT WE CAN DELIVER HEALTHCARE THAT MEETS SOCIAL, CULTURAL AND LINGUISTIC NEEDS, WE STRIVE TO HAVE A WORKFORCE THAT MIRRORS THE DIVERSITY OF OUR PATIENTS. IN ADDITION, WE PROACTIVELY REACH OUT TO YOUNG PEOPLE IN UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES TO ENSURE THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO OPPORTUNITIES IN HEALTHCARE CAREERS THROUGH LURIE CHILDRENS WORKFORCE EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. THROUGH THESE OPPORTUNITIES, WE PROVIDE OVER 200 INTERNSHIPS ANNUALLY AND HAVE HIRED MORE THAN 70 FORMER INTERNS INTO EMPLOYMENT AT LURIE CHILDRENS. * SUPPORTING EVIDENCE-BASED PARENTING PROGRAMS WITH METROPOLITAN FAMILY SERVICES AND CHICAGO PUBLIC LIBRARY. * INITIATING AN ON-SITE FOOD PANTRY AT LURIE CHILDRENS PRIMARY CARE UPTOWN FOR FAMILIES WHO IDENTIFY AS FOOD INSECURE. * LAUNCHING A COMPREHENSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD-BASED INTERVENTION IN THE BELMONT CRAGIN AND AUSTIN NEIGHBORHOODS TO BETTER ADDRESS THE RELATED AND UNDERLYING CAUSES OF CHILD AND ADOLESCENT HEALTH CHALLENGES. * SINCE 2016, LURIE CHILDRENS HAS PROVIDED $900,000 IN COMMUNITY BENEFIT GRANTS TO FQHCS TO EXTEND OUR MISSION AND SUPPORT KEY PARTNERS PEDIATRIC-FOCUSED OPERATIONS. IN 2017, WE REVISED THE AIM OF THESE GRANTS TO (1) FOCUS ON MISSION IMPACT CONCORDANT WITH THEIR UNIQUE GOALS AND WITH LURIE CHILDRENS CHNA PRIORITY AREAS, AND (2) INCLUDE MORE RIGOROUS EVALUATION TO MEASURE IMPACT. * IN 2019, LURIE CHILDRENS BECAME THE ILLINOIS AFFILIATE OF PROJECT ADAM, AN INITIATIVE TO PREVENT DEATHS FROM SUDDEN CARDIAC ARREST THROUGH ADVOCACY, EDUCATION, PREPAREDNESS AND COLLABORATION. THIS INITIATIVE EDUCATES STAKEHOLDERS ON BYSTANDER CPR TRAININGS AND PROVIDES TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO LOCAL SCHOOLS ON THE PATHWAY TO BECOMING HEART SAFE SCHOOLS. * IN 2019, LURIE CHILDRENS LAUNCHED OUR MOBILE HEALTH PROGRAM, A MOBILE CARE CLINIC AND HEALTH PROMOTION PROGRAM WHI
CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS THE DEFINITION OF CHRONIC DISEASE VARIES WIDELY IN THE UNITED STATES AND ACROSS THE GLOBE. HOWEVER, CHRONIC DISEASES ARE OFTEN DEFINED AS HAVING THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS: COMPLEX CAUSALITY WITH MULTIPLE FACTORS LEADING TO ONSET INCLUDING SOCIOECONOMICS AND HEALTH BEHAVIORS, LONG DEVELOPMENT PERIOD, PROLONGED COURSE OF ILLNESS THAT OFTEN REQUIRES ONGOING MEDICAL ATTENTION, NON-COMMUNICABLE, AND CAUSE FUNCTIONAL IMPAIRMENT IN DAILY ACTIVITIES OR DISABILITY. ACCORDING TO THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION AND THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, WORLDWIDE AND IN THE UNITED STATES, CHRONIC DISEASES ARE THE LEADING CAUSES OF DISABILITY AND DEATH. IN ADDITION, CHRONIC DISEASE RATES ARE ACCELERATING GLOBALLY ACROSS ALL SOCIOECONOMIC CLASSES. HOWEVER, SOCIOECONOMIC INEQUITIES HAVE PROFOUND IMPACTS ON WHICH POPULATIONS AND COMMUNITIES HAVE THE GREATEST BURDEN OF DISEASE. MANY OF THE SOCIOECONOMIC INEQUITIES THAT ARE UNDERLYING ROOT CAUSES OF CHRONIC ILLNESS ARE EXPLORED IN DEPTH IN THE HEALTH INEQUITIES AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH SECTION. PREVENTION CHRONIC CONDITIONS SUCH AS HEART DISEASE, STROKE, CANCER, DIABETES, ARTHRITIS, ASTHMA, MENTAL ILLNESS, AND HIV/AIDS ACCOUNT FOR 90 PERCENT OF THE NATIONS $3.3 TRILLION IN ANNUAL HEALTHCARE EXPENDITURES (CDC, 2019). ADDRESSING THE RISK FACTORS IN CHILDHOOD THROUGH EARLY PREVENTION AND ONGOING MANAGEMENT CAN MITIGATE THE ONSET AND REDUCE THE COSTLY PHYSICAL AND SOCIOECONOMIC BURDEN OF THESE CHRONIC CONDITIONS IN ADULTHOOD. RISK FACTORS A SMALL NUMBER OF COMMON RISK FACTORS CONTRIBUTE TO MOST OF THE MAIN CHRONIC DISEASES: UNHEALTHY DIET, PHYSICAL INACTIVITY, TOBACCO USE, STRESS AND/OR DEPRESSION, MATERNAL AND INFANT HEALTH AND POVERTY AND OTHER SOCIAL AND STRUCTURAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH. TO ADDRESS CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS, LURIE CHILDRENS UNDERTOOK SEVERAL INITIATIVES BETWEEN 2017-2019, INCLUDING: * TO BETTER CARE FOR THE HIGHEST RISK ASTHMA PATIENTS, LURIE CHILDREN'S LAUNCHED A HIGH-RISK MULTI-DISCIPLINARY ASTHMA CLINIC WITH ADVANCED PRACTICE NURSES AND SOCIAL WORKERS TO ADDRESS SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF CHRONIC ASTHMA AND ADVANCED CLINICIANS WITH EXPERTISE IN ASTHMA COMPLEXITY/ASTHMA SEVERITY * IN ORDER TO PREVENT POTENTIALLY UNECESSARY VISITS TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM, LURIE CHILDRENS PARTNERED WITH RESPIRATORY HEALTH ASSOCIATION TO PROVIDE EVIDENCE-BASED ASTHMA EDUCATIONAL SERVICES TO CHILDREN LIVING WITH ASTHMA AND THEIR CAREGIVERS IN SCHOOL-BASED SETTINGS. TARGET COMMUNITIES INCLUDE THOSE FROM WHICH HIGH NUMBERS OF CHILDREN GO TO LOCAL EMERGENCY ROOMS FOR ASTHMA-RELATED ISSUES - ZIP CODES 60639, 60647 AND 60651. BETWEEN 2012-2019, 349 STUDENTS AND 318 SCHOOL STAFF RECEIVED THIS EDUCATION. * PROVIDED OVER 750 MEDICALLY-COMPLEX PATIENTS CARE COORDINATION SERVICES THROUGH LURIE CHILDREN'S HEALTH PARTNERS CARE COORDINATION ENTITY, WHICH LAUNCHED IN 2014. THIS EFFORT INVOLVES PARTNERING WITH MEDICAL HOME PROVIDERS IN THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDING INTENSIVE CARE COORDINATION, IT INTEGRATION, AND SUPPORT FOR HOME-BASED SERVICES. * LURIE CHILDRENS CHRONIC ILLNESS TRANSITION TEAM CONTINUES TO PROVIDE SUPPORT AS YOUNG PEOPLE WITH COMPLEX CONDITIONS TRANSITION FROM PEDIATRIC TO ADULT CARE. THIS INCLUDES A TRANSITION CLINIC TO COORDINATE CARE, A LIFE SKILLS PROGRAM FOR ALL FAMILIES (SUPPORTING ADOLESCENTS WITH INDEPENDENT LIFE SKILLS [SAILS]), AND AN INTERNSHIP PROGRAM TO HELP YOUTH GET THE EXPERIENCE THEY NEED TO TRANSITION TO THE ADULT WORKFORCE. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSITION TEAM CONTINUES TO CREATE TOOLS, RESOURCES, CONTACTS, AND CONSULTATIONS FOR OUR COLLEAGUES TO HELP THEM CREATE SMOOTH TRANSITIONS FOR THEIR PATIENTS. * LURIE CHILDRENS PARENT WISDOM IN SHARED EXPERIENCE (PARENTWISE) AND PEER WISDOM IN SHARED EXPERIENCE (PEERWISE) PROGRAMS PAIR PARENTS OF CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL HEALTHCARE NEEDS WITH OTHER PARENTS AND YOUTH WHOSE DIAGNOSES OR NEEDS ARE SIMILAR. THESE PROGRAMS, IN WHICH MORE THAN 100 VOLUNTEERS PROVID OVER 1800 HOURS OF SERVICE ANNUALLY TO HELP OPTIMIZE THE HEALTHCARE EXPERIENCE FOR CHILDREN WITH MEDICAL COMPLEXITY. * SINCE 1985 THE PEDIATRIC PRACTICE RESEARCH GROUP ("PPRG"), A REGIONAL CHICAGO-AREA PRACTICE-BASED RESEARCH NETWORK AT LURIE CHILDREN'S HAS COLLABORATED WITH PRIMARY CARE PRACTICES IN A VARIETY OF RESEARCH PROJECTS. SOME OF THE PROJECTS HAVE INCLUDED QUALITY IMPROVEMENT FOCUSED ON IMPROVING CARE RELATED TO NUTRITIONAL STATUS ASSESSMENT, DIET AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY ASSESSMENT AND COUNSELING. IN ADDITION, PPRG HAS CONDUCTED A NUMBER OF QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS IN THE AREA OF OBESITY IDENTIFICATION AND MANAGEMENT. EXAMPLES INCLUDE FACILITATING AND EVALUATING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF OBESITY CARE CLINICS IN 5 PRIMARY CARE PRACTICES AND TESTING TWO STRATEGIES TO IMPLEMENT THE NATIONAL HEART, LUNG, AND BLOOD INSTITUTE ("NHLBI") CARDIOVASCULAR RISK PREVENTION GUIDELINES AT 16 PRACTICES. * THE CONSORTIUM TO LOWER OBESITY IN CHICAGO CHILDREN ("CLOCC"), A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED CHILDHOOD OBESITY PREVENTION COALITION, WAS FOUNDED BY LURIE CHILDREN'S IN 2002. ITS MISSION IS TO CONFRONT THE CHILDHOOD OBESITY EPIDEMIC BY PROMOTING HEALTHY AND ACTIVE LIFESTYLES FOR CHILDREN THROUGHOUT THE CHICAGO METROPOLITAN AREA. CLOCC CREATES AND SUSTAINS THE TYPES OF MULTI-SECTOR COLLABORATION RECOMMENDED BY OUR NATION'S HEALTH LEADERS. * KEY ELEMENTS OF CLOCC'S WORK INCLUDE: THE WIDELY-USED 5-4-3-2-1 GO HEALTHY LIFESTYLE MESSAGE, PARTNERING WITH SCHOOLS TO HELP THEM ACHIEVE THE HEALTHY CPS DESIGNATION, ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE TO IMPROVE FOOD ACCESS AND NEIGHBORHOOD WALKABILITY AND POLICY EFFORTS AT CITY, STATE AND FEDERAL LEVELS. SINCE 2016, CLOCC HAS TRAINED OVER 700 PARTNERS IN THEIR HEALTHY LIFESTYLE CURRICULA FOCUSED ON NUTRITION AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. FOR THE 2020-2022 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY, OUR KEY STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS RISK FACTORS, PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT OF CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS, INCLUDE: * EXPAND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES (E.G. CARE COORDINATION, LINKAGES TO PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS, TRANSITION TO ADULT SERVICES, TELEMEDICINE) FOR CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS AND MEDICAL COMPLEXITIES * ENHANCE PARTNERSHIP WITH SCHOOLS TO SUPPORT YOUTH WITH CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS *IDENTIFY, PREVENT AND MANAGE RISK FACTORS THAT IMPACT CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS WITH THE GREATEST RACIAL DISPARITIES (E.G., ASTHMA, OBESITY, FOOD ALLERGIES) MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH IN 2016, ONE IN SIX U.S. CHILDREN 28 YEARS OLD (17.4 PERCENT) HAD A DIAGNOSED MENTAL, BEHAVIORAL, OR DEVELOPMENTAL DISORDER. ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL ALLIANCE ON MENTAL ILLNESS (NAMI), AT LEAST ONE IN FIVE ADOLESCENTS HAVE OR WILL HAVE A SERIOUS MENTAL OR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CONDITION. CHICAGO PREVALENCE DATA FOR YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS IS LIMITED. IT IS ESTIMATED THAT OVER 30 PERCENT OF CHICAGO HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS EXPERIENCE DEPRESSION AND OVER 5 PERCENT REPORTED ATTEMPTING SUICIDE IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS. THE CAUSES OF MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS ARE COMPLEX AND INTERRELATED AND THERE ARE GAPS IN THE SYSTEM TO ADDRESS AND TREAT. TO ADDRESS MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, LURIE CHILDRENS UNDERTOOK SEVERAL INITIATIVES BETWEEN 2017-2019, INCLUDING: * LURIE CHILDRENS CENTER FOR CHILDHOOD RESILIENCE PROMOTES ACCESS TO HIGH QUALITY MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES FOR CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS STATEWIDE THROUGH CLINICAL SERVICE, RESEARCH, TRAINING, ADVOCACY AND POLICY REFORM. UTILIZING A PUBLIC HEALTH APPROACH TO EXPANDING ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, ALLOWS THE CENTER TO ADDRESS MENTAL HEALTH REFORM HOLISTICALLY, INCLUDING: SCHOOL MENTAL HEALTH WORKING WITH SCHOOL STAFF, CLINICIANS, ADMINISTRATORS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO BUILD BETTER ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES FOR CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS; TRAUMA TRAINING TEACHING PROFESSIONALS WHO WORK WITH CHILDREN, TRAUMA-INFORMED BEST PRACTICES; RESEARCH IDENTIFYING, EVALUATING AND DISSEMINATING INTERVENTION BEST PRACTICES; PRE-PROFESSIONAL MENTAL HEALTH TRAINING TRAINING NEW GENERATIONS OF CLINICAL PROFESSIONALS IN THE PUBLIC HEALTH APPROACH TO MENTAL HEALTH; ADVOCACY AND POLICY LEADING ADVOCACY AND POLICY WORK TO ENSURE STATEWIDE SYSTEMS AND RESOURCES SUPPORT BEST PRACTICES IN BEHAVIORAL HEALTH. * THROUGH ITS CENTER FOR CHILDHOOD RESILIENCE, LURIE CHILDREN'S ALSO PLAYS A LEADERSHIP ROLE IN THE ILLINOIS CHILDHOOD TRAUMA COALITION AND THE ILLINOIS CHILDRENS MENTAL HEALTH PARTNERSHIP, BOTH OF WHICH ARE HOUSED WITHIN LURIE CHILDRENS. * IN 2018, LURIE CHILDRENS LAUNCHED TWO PROGRAMS TO ADDRESS MENTAL AND BEHAVIOR HEALTH NEEDS. THE MOOD, ANXIETY, ADHA COLLABORATIVE CARE (MAACC) PROGRAM AND TARGETED ASSESSMENT AND GROUP EMPIRICALLY-SUPPORTED TREATMENT (TARGET). THE MAACC PROGRAM IS A COLLABORATIVE CARE SYSTEM WITH COMMUNITY PEDIATRICIANS TO INCREASE THEIR ABILITY TO IDENTIFY AND TREAT MENTAL HEALTH CONCERNS IN THE PRIMARY CARE SETTING. MAACC TRAINS COMMUNITY PEDIATRICIANS AND COLLABORATES WITH A LURIE CHILDRENS CHILD PSYCHIATRISTS TO PROVIDE TREATMENT TO THEIR PATIENTS WHEN MEDICATION MANAGEMENT IS NEEDED. TARGET IS A NEW SERVICE MODEL FOR AT-RISK YOUTH THAT U
UNINTENTIONAL INJURY AND VIOLENCE UNINTENTIONAL INJURIES ARE THE LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH AMONG CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS IN ILLINOIS AND THE U.S. UNINTENTIONAL INJURIES INCLUDE SUFFOCATION, DROWNING, POISONING, FIRES, FALLS, MOTOR VEHICLE CRASHES, AND OCCUPATIONAL INJURIES. THE TWO PEDIATRIC AGE GROUPS WITH THE HIGHEST UNINTENTIONAL INJURY DEATH RATES ARE INFANTS (< 1 YEAR OLD) AND ADOLESCENTS 15-19 YEARS OLD. UNINTENTIONAL INJURIES ARE ALSO A MAJOR CAUSE OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS, HOSPITALIZATION, AND PERMANENT DISABILITY AMONG CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS. THE CDC ESTIMATES THAT FOR EVERY CHILD WHO DIES FROM AN UNINTENTIONAL INJURY, THERE ARE AN ADDITIONAL 900 CHILDREN TREATED IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. IN ADDITION, UNINTENTIONAL INJURIES ARE A MAJOR CONTRIBUTOR TO INFANT MORTALITY EACH YEAR IN CHICAGO AND IN ILLINOIS. CHILD MALTREATMENT IS A FORM OF VIOLENCE OR HARM, INTENTIONAL OR UNINTENTIONAL, COMMITTED BY A PARENT OR CAREGIVER AGAINST AN INFANT, CHILD OR ADOLESCENT. THE CDC CATEGORIZES FOUR TYPES OF MALTREATMENT THAT INCLUDE (1) PHYSICAL ABUSE, (2) EMOTIONAL OR PSYCHOLOGICAL ABUSE, (3) SEXUAL ABUSE AND (4) NEGLECT. GENERALLY, CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 4 YEARS OLD, CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS AND CHILDREN IN LOW-RESOURCE COMMUNITIES ARE ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE. LACK OF PARENTING AND CHILD DEVELOPMENT KNOWLEDGE, PARENTAL STRESS, AND SOCIAL ISOLATION ARE RISK FACTORS FOR CHILD MALTREATMENT. THE IMPACT OF CHILD ABUSE AND NEGLECT CAN BE FELT INTO ADULTHOOD AFFECTING HEALTH AND WELL-BEING ACROSS THE LIFESPAN. NURTURING PARENTING SKILLS, ACCESS TO SOCIAL SERVICES AND SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITIES REDUCE CHILDHOOD RISK OF ABUSE. OTHER SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH (E.G., STABLE HOUSING, ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE, FINANCIAL STABILITY) ARE ALSO PROTECTIVE FACTORS. ALTHOUGH VIOLENCE OCCURS IN ALL COMMUNITIES, IT IS CONCENTRATED IN LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, PARTICULARLY PREDOMINANTLY BLACK/AFRICAN AMERICAN NEIGHBORHOODS. BLACK/ AFRICAN AMERICAN RESIDENTS IN CHICAGO HAVE THE HIGHEST BURDEN OF HOMICIDE AND FIREARM-RELATED MORTALITY. THE ROOT CAUSES OF COMMUNITY VIOLENCE ARE MULTIFACETED AND INCLUDE ISSUES SUCH AS THE CONCENTRATION OF POVERTY, EDUCATION INEQUITIES, POOR ACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICES, MASS INCARCERATION, DIFFERENTIAL POLICING STRATEGIES, AND GENERATIONAL TRAUMA. RESEARCH HAS ESTABLISHED THAT EXPOSURE TO VIOLENCE HAS SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS ON PHYSICAL AND MENTAL WELL-BEING. IN ADDITION, EXPOSURE TO VIOLENCE IN CHILDHOOD HAS BEEN LINKED TO TRAUMA, TOXIC STRESS, AND AN INCREASED RISK OF POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES ACROSS THE LIFESPAN. VIOLENCE ALSO HAS A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITIONS WITHIN COMMUNITIES THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE WIDENING OF DISPARITIES. RESEARCH HAS LONG ESTABLISHED THAT EXPOSURE TO INTERPERSONAL AND/OR COMMUNITY VIOLENCE IS STRONGLY LINKED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF MENTAL ILLNESS, POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER (PTSD), AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS. TO ADDRESS UNINTENTIONAL INJURIES AND VIOLENCE, LURIE CHILDRENS UNDERTOOK SEVERAL INITIATIVES BETWEEN 2017-2019, INCLUDING: * LURIE CHILDRENS INJURY PREVENTION & RESEARCH CENTER (IPRC) DISTRIBUTED 60 BABY BOXES, OVER 3300 HOME SAFETY BAGS, AND OVER 2000 TARGETED HOME SAFETY PRODUCTS TO SUPPORT PARENTS IN PROVIDING SAFE ENVIRONMENTS. IPRC ALSO CONDUCTED 155 PLAYGROUND INSPECTIONS UTILIZED BY OVER 25,644 YOUTH THROUGH THE CHICAGO ACTIVATE NEIGHBORHOOD ENVIRONMENT FOR HEALTH AND WELLNESS (ANEHW) INITIATIVE * EACH YEAR, LURIE CHILDREN'S CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICE TEAM SPONSORS A CHILD MALTREATMENT SYMPOSIUM FOR FIRST RESPONDERS, SOCIAL WORKERS, TEACHERS AND POLICE OFFICERS IN CHICAGO. THE GOALS OF THESE SYMPOSIA ARE TO RAISE AWARENESS OF CHILD MALTREATMENT, TO EMPOWER PROFESSIONS IN CONTACT WITH CHILDREN WITH THE TOOLS TO IDENTIFY AND REPORT ABUSE, AND TO ADDRESS COMMON CHALLENGES IN PROVIDING SERVICES TO FAMILIES THAT EXPERIENCE ABUSE. * LURIE CHILDRENS HAS CONTINUED THE SEXUAL ASSAULT NURSE EXAMINER PROGRAM (SANE) IN ITS EMERGENCY ROOM TO ENSURE TIMELY, EXPERT CARE CAN BE PROVIDED TO YOUNG VICTIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT. A TRAINED NURSE PRACTITIONER IS AVAILABLE 24/7, AND TOGETHER, LURIE CHILDRENS SANE PROGRAM APNS COMPLETE MORE THAN 200 ANNUAL ASSESSMENTS. THEY ALSO PROVIDE CONTINUING EDUCATION TO PHYSICIANS, ADVANCED PRACTICE PROVIDERS AND NURSES INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY. * LURIE CHILDRENS CHILD ABUSE PEDIATRICS CONTINUES TO LEAD THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE HUMAGRAM TECHNOLOGY, A SOFTWARE PROGRAM TO HELP CLINICIANS, CAREGIVERS AND CHILD ADVOCATES DETERMINE IF AN INJURY IS ACCIDENTAL OR DUE TO CHILD ABUSE OR NEGLECT. INTEGRATED INTO THIS TECHNOLOGY ARE SIX EVIDENCE-BASED CLINICAL DECISION RULES ADDRESSING SPECIFIC AREAS NEEDED TO IMPROVE RECOGNITION OF PHYSICAL ABUSE, INCLUDING BRUISING, FRACTURES, ABUSIVE HEAD TRAUMA, OCCULT HEAD INJURY (BRAIN INJURY), SCALD BURNS AND SEXUAL ABUSE. * LURIE CHILDRENS CHILD MALTREATMENT EXPERTS HAVE COLLABORATED WITH CIVITAS CHILD LAW CENTER TO DEVELOP AND TEACH AN ADVOCACY COURSE AND CURRICULUM FOR LOYOLA UNIVERSITY LAW STUDENTS AND SITTING JUDGES FOCUSED ON CHILD MALTREATMENT. *LURIE CHILDREN'S LAUNCHED STRENGTHENING CHICAGO YOUTH ("SCY") IN 2012 TO BUILD CAPACITY AMONG NUMEROUS PUBLIC AND PRIVATE STAKEHOLDERS TO CONNECT, COLLABORATE AND MOBILIZE AROUND A PUBLIC HEALTH APPROACH TO VIOLENCE PREVENTION. IT NOW HAS MORE THAN 5,000 MEMBERS. MATERIALS, TRAINING AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE IS OFFERED TO FOSTER INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIPS AMONG MULTIPLE SECTORS, ENCOURAGE INVOLVEMENT IN POLICY AND ADVOCACY AND SUPPORT ADOPTION OF EFFECTIVE, SUSTAINABLE VIOLENCE PREVENTION STRATEGIES. IN 2016-2019, SCY HOSTED OVER 35 EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES ATTENDED BY MORE THAN 2500 VIOLENCE PREVENTION PARTNERS TO SHARE KNOWLEDGE AND BUILD CAPACITY TO ADDRESS VIOLENCE. * LURIE CHILDRENS AND SCY ALSO PARTICIPATE IN THE ILLINOIS GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION COALITION AND ILLINOIS COUNCIL AGAINST HANDGUN VIOLENCE. * IN 2017, SCY LAUNCED THE JUVENILE JUSTICE COLLABORATIVE (JJC), CONVENING YOUTH SERVICE PROVIDERS AND GOVERNMENT STAKEHOLDERS IN COOK COUNTY TO DEVELOP A CARE COORDINATION MODEL FOR JUSTICE-INVOLVED YOUTH, THUS MINIMIZING THEIR FURTHER INVOLVEMENT IN THE JUSTICE SYSTEM AND REDUCING RACIAL DISPARITIES. OVER 200 YOUTH HAVE BEEN CONNECTED TO SERVICES. IN THE JJCS PILOT YEAR, NO YOUTH CONNECTED TO SERVICES WAS RE-ARRESTED DURING THEIR PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM. FURTHER, JJC YOUTH HAVE A LOWER RECIDIVISM RATE THAN OVERALL DIVERTED YOUTH: 18% OF YOUTH WHO COMPLETED THE JJC WERE RE-REFERRED TO COURT WITHIN ONE YEAR, COMPARED TO 32% OF ALL DIVERTED YOUTH IN CHICAGO. * IN ADDITION, LURIE CHILDRENS AND SCY ANALYZE AND RELEASE BRIEFS FROM THE ILLINOIS VIOLENT DEATH REPORTING SYSTEM AND THE STATEWIDE UNINTENTIONAL DRUG OVERDOSE REPORTING SYSTEM, WHICH HELPS INFORM POLICY AND COMMUNITY EFFORTS TO CURB VIOLENCE AND DRUG OVERDOSE. IN 2016-2018, IVDRS PUBLISHED SEVEN DATA BRIEFS (HOMICIDES IN CHICAGO, SUICIDES IN CHICAGO, INTIMATE PARTNER HOMICIDES IN ILLINOIS, ROLE OF ALCOHOL IN HOMICIDES, HOMICIDES IN CHICAGO COMMUNITY AREAS, TEEN SUICIDE AND ELDER SUICIDE) AND 16 COUNTY REPORTS FOR ALL PARTICIPATING COUNTIES. FOR THE 2020-2022 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY, OUR KEY STRATEGIES TO PREVENT UNINTENTIONAL AND VIOLENCE-RELATED INJURIES AND MORTALITY, INCLUDE: * LEAD AND FACILITATE EFFORTS TO ACCESS AND LINK INJURY AND VIOLENCE DATA ACROSS SYSTEMS AND COLLABORATE WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO USE DATA AND DISSEMINATE FINDINGS * EXPAND AND REFINE INJURY PREVENTION ACTIVITIES TO ADDRESS INJURY ISSUES WITH THE GREATEST RACIAL DISPARITIES (E.G., GUN VIOLENCE, SLEEP-RELATED DEATH, CHILD ABUSE, DROWNINGS, TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY) AND OTHER EMERGING HAZARDS PART V, LINE 13B N/A PART V, LINE 13H N/A PART V, LINE 15E N/A PART V, LINE 16J N/A PART V, LINE 18E N/A PART V, LINE 19E N/A PART V, LINE 20A N/A PART V, LINE 20B N/A PART V, LINE 20C N/A PART V, LINE 20D N/A PART V, LINE 20E N/A PART V, LINE 21C N/A PART V, LINE 21D N/A PART V, LINE 23 N/A PART V, LINE 24 N/A

Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, THE PATIENT MUST BE AN ILLINOIS RESIDENT. THE ORGANIZATION ALSO FOLLOWS ILLINOISS PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES IN DETERMINING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. PART I, LINE 6A LURIE CHILDREN'S PREPARES AN ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT. THE ANNUAL REPORT IS FOUND AT HTTPS://WWW.LURIECHILDRENS.ORG/EN/SERVING-THE-COMMUNITY/COMMUNITY-RELATION S/COMMUNITY-INVESTMENT/ THE CALCULATION FOR "CHARITY CARE AND CERTAIN OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS AT COST" REFLECTS THE FORM 990 DEFINITIONS AND WILL NOT NECESSARILY CORRESPOND TO CALCULATIONS PREPARED FOR SIMILAR STATE OF ILLINOIS REPORTING REQUIREMENTS AND OUR AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENT REPORTING, EACH OF WHICH MAY REQUIRE THE USE OF SPECIFIED METHODOLOGIES THAT MAY DIFFER FROM FORM 990. PART I, LINE 7G SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES REPORTED IN SECTION I, LINE 7G INCLUDE DETAILS FROM TWO DIFFERENT COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAMS OF LURIE CHILDREN'S, NAMELY THE UPTOWN PRIMARY CARE AND DENTISTRY CLINICS. THE OPERATING COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE UPTOWN PRIMARY CARE AND DENTISTRY CLINICS ARE $3,283,027. BOTH PROGRAMS ARE OPERATED DESPITE FINANCIAL LOSSES TO THE ORGANIZATION. THE CLINICS PROVIDE HEALTHCARE TO A LARGELY UNDERSERVED COMMUNITY. LURIE CHILDREN'S PROVIDES FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO THE FOLLOWING AFFILIATED ORGANIZATIONS TO ALLOW THESE ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE CHARITY CARE SERVICES TO MEDICAID PATIENTS AND ENGAGE IN OTHER CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES: PEDIATRIC FACULTY FOUNDATION, INC. $36,878,979 LURIE CHILDREN'S MEDICAL GROUP, LLC $ 3,924,325 LURIE CHILDREN'S HEALTH PARTNERS CARE COORDINATION $ 1,418,389 ALMOST HOME KIDS $ 3,281,533 LURIE CHILDRENS PRIMARY CARE, LLC $ 482,024 PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F) TOTAL EXPENSE FROM FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A) WAS $1,072,205,512. THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED IN THIS AMOUNT WAS $7,090,048. THEREFORE, A TOTAL EXPENSE OF $1,065,115,464 WAS USED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, LINE 7, COLUMN (F). PART I, LINE 7 COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS CALCULATED USING THE TOTAL EXPENSE REFLECTED IN OUR FY 2018 AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REDUCED BY COMMUNITY BENEFITS REFLECTED ON SCHEDULE H, BAD DEBT, PROVIDER TAX AND NON-PATIENT RELATED ACTIVITY EXPENSES FOUND IN THE LURIE CHILDREN'S COST REPORT DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT CHARGES. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS USED TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS ON LINES 7A THROUGH 7C. THE REMAINDER OF THE ROWS IN PART I, LINE 7 ARE CALCULATED AS FOLLOWS: LINE 7E THE AMOUNTS REPORTED ARE DIRECT COSTS USED TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY HEALTH FROM OUR RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED FUNDS AND AMOUNTS FROM OUR AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($16 MILLION) OFFSET BY DIRECT REVENUE OF ($3.3 MILLION). LINE 7F - THESE AMOUNTS ARE UNREIMBURSED MEDICAL EDUCATION COSTS OF $28 MILLION USING MEDICARE COST REPORTS INCLUDING TEACHING COSTS OFFSET BY A HRSA GRADUATE MEDICAL REIMBURSEMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF $3.0 MILLION. LINE 7G - THESE AMOUNTS SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO PFF, LCMG, AHK, LCPC, CCE, AS WELL AS UPTOWN (MEDICAL HOME) AND DENTISTRY CLINIC. LINE 7H - TOTAL RESEARCH COSTS ARE DERIVED FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORT AND SMCRI COST CENTERS LESS REVENUE AND LESS PHARMACEUTICAL ACTIVITIES. PART II N/A PART III, SECTION A, LINE 2 THE BAD DEBT REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 2 IS THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF ANN & ROBERT H. LURIE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF CHICAGOS PROVISION FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS PER THE CHILDRENS HOSPITAL OF CHICAGO MEDICAL CENTER AND AFFILIATED CORPORATIONS AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 2018. PART III, SECTION A, LINE 3 THE PROVISION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY ALLOWS FOR ACCOUNTS IN BAD DEBT TO BE APPROVED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IF THE PATIENT MEETS THE CRITERIA. THERE ARE POSSIBLE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ACCOUNTS IN BAD DEBT, ALTHOUGH THE EXACT PERCENTAGE IS UNKNOWN. PART III, SECTION A, LINE 4 PLEASE NOTE, SIMILAR TO FY 2017, WE DO NOT HAVE AN AFS FOOTNOTE FOR THE BAD DEBT CALCULATION FOR FY 2018. THE FOOTNOTES TO LURIE CHILDREN'S AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT SPECIFICALLY ADDRESS BAD DEBT EXPENSE. LURIE CHILDREN'S DEFINES SELF-PAY AS BAD DEBT WHEN A FAMILY IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND DOES NOT PAY AN OUTSTANDING ACCOUNT BALANCE. EVEN WHEN A PATIENT IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, OR ELIGIBILITY IS UNKNOWN, LURIE CHILDREN'S IS SENSITIVE TO THE FINANCIAL HEALTH OF OUR PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES AND RECOGNIZES THAT FAMILY FINANCIAL CONCERNS MAY NOT ALWAYS BE SHARED. AT TIMES, A PATIENT MAY BE RELUCTANT TO COMPLETE A FINANCIAL ASSESSMENT TO DETERMINE THEIR ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY CARE. AS A RESULT, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A PORTION OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE COULD REPRESENT PATIENTS WHO ARE UNABLE TO PAY AND MIGHT QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE; HOWEVER, ACCURATE DATA TO ESTIMATE THIS AMOUNT IS UNAVAILABLE. LURIE CHILDREN'S IS COMMITTED TO MANAGING COLLECTION EFFORTS IN A SENSITIVE AND RESPECTFUL MANNER. IN THIS REGARD, LURIE CHILDREN'S SENDS A MINIMUM OF FOUR LETTERS/STATEMENTS TO THE FAMILIES BEFORE TAKING FURTHER ACTION. FOR HIGH BALANCE ACCOUNTS, THE HOSPITAL WILL ALSO ATTEMPT TO CONTACT THE PATIENT/FAMILY BY TELEPHONE. SHOULD THE HOSPITAL RECEIVE NO REPLY AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT THE FAMILY, THE SELF-PAY BALANCES ARE SENT TO A COLLECTION AGENCY FOR FURTHER ACTION. WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS, LURIE CHILDREN'S DOES NOT CREDIT LIST ITS PATIENTS OR TAKE COURT ACTION IN ITS ATTEMPTS TO COLLECT THE OUTSTANDING BALANCES. THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AT THE AMOUNT OF CHARGES WRITTEN OFF (NET OF CONTRACTUALS AND DISCOUNTS) IS PRESENTED AS A SEPARATE LINE ITEM ON THE FACE OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. BAD DEBT EXPENSE ON PART III, LINE 2 OF SCHEDULE H IS CALCULATED BASED ON AGING ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND APPLYING HISTORICAL BAD DEBT PERCENTAGES. PART III, SECTION B, LINE 8 THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL HAS NOT BEEN TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR FY 2018; HOWEVER, IT SHOULD BE BECAUSE THIS BURDEN WOULD FALL ON THE GOVERNMENT AND OTHER CHARITIES IF CARE WAS NOT PROVIDED BY LURIE CHILDRENS HOSPITAL. PART III, SECTION B, LINE 9B COLLECTION POLICIES ARE THE SAME FOR ALL LURIE CHILDREN'S PATIENTS. IF AT ANY POINT IN THE COLLECTION PROCESS DOCUMENTATION IS RECEIVED THAT INDICATES THE PATIENT IS POTENTIALLY ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, BUT HAS NOT APPLIED FOR IT, THE ACCOUNT IS REFERRED BACK FOR A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE REVIEW. THROUGH THE USE OF PAMPHLETS, SIGNAGE AND WEB SITE NOTICE, PATIENTS AND FAMILIES ARE NOTIFIED OF LURIE CHILDREN'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. ON RECEIPT OF THE INFORMATION, WE WILL DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND NOTIFY THE PATIENT AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. LURIE CHILDREN'S DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS FROM PATIENTS WHO ARE BEING REVIEWED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY OR WHO ARE DETERMINED TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. IN ADDITION, ALL PATIENTS HAVING DIFFICULTY PAYING THEIR BILLS ARE DIRECTED TO FINANCIAL COUNSELORS. OUR FINANCIAL COUNSELORS WILL WORK WITH OUR PATIENTS TO HELP THEM TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE OR GOVERNMENT PAYORS SUCH AS MEDICAID. AFTER IT IS DETERMINED THAT A PATIENT MEETS THE QUALIFICATIONS FOR THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, THE ACCOUNT BALANCE IS EITHER PARTIALLY OR ENTIRELY WRITTEN OFF IN ACCORDANCE WITH OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. IF THERE IS ANY REMAINING BALANCE, ONLY THAT BALANCE WOULD BE SUBJECT TO OUR DEBT COLLECTION POLICY. IF A PATIENT HAS REQUESTED AND/OR FILLED OUT A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION, ALL DEBT COLLECTION ACTIVITIES STOP UNTIL ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE CAN BE DETERMINED. OUR POLICY PROVIDES THAT ONCE WE HAVE RECEIVED THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION WE WILL NOT REFER ANY ACCOUNTS FOR COLLECTION UNTIL WE CAN DETERMINE WHETHER THE PATIENT IS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.
Part VI, Line 2 NEEDS ASSESSMENT WHILE LURIE CHILDREN'S CONDUCTED ITS FORMAL CHNA REQUIRED UNDER SECTION 501(R) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND HAS ESTABLISHED ADVISORY COMMITTEES TO REVIEW THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY AND DEVELOP A CHNA REPORT, LURIE CHILDREN'S HAS ALSO UTILIZED OTHER MECHANISMS TO ASSESS THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THE LARGER AND DIVERSE COMMUNITY IT SERVES IN A VARIETY OF WAYS. COMMUNITY NEEDS ARE IDENTIFIED BY THE LURIE CHILDREN'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS, AS WELL AS SEVERAL ADVISORY BOARDS WHICH ARE COMPRISED OF INDIVIDUALS FROM THE COMMUNITY SERVED, WHO ARE ACTIVE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY AND ATTUNED TO COMMUNITY NEEDS. LURIE CHILDREN'S HAS A VERY ACTIVE FAMILY ADVISORY BOARD WHICH THE HOSPITAL RELIES UPON TO ASSIST IN MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT PROGRAMMING AND POLICIES. FAMILY ADVISORY BOARD MEMBERS, COMPRISED OF PARENTS OF CHILDREN WHO HAVE HAD EXTENSIVE INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT EXPERIENCES AT THE HOSPITAL, ADVISE ADMINISTRATION AND MEDICAL LEADERSHIP ON PATIENT NEEDS AND HOSPITAL PRIORITIES FROM THE FAMILY PERSPECTIVE. FAMILY ADVISORY BOARD MEMBERS CONTRIBUTE THROUGH PARTICIPATION IN PLANNING, OPERATING AND POLICY COMMITTEES OF LURIE CHILDREN'S. SIMILARLY, THE KIDS' ADVISORY BOARD IS INTENDED TO GIVE A VOICE TO CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN TREATED AT THE HOSPITAL. THE KIDS' ADVISORY BOARD MAKES RECOMMENDATIONS ON ISSUES RELATED TO PATIENT CARE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF A CHILD, TEENAGER AND SIBLING OF A PATIENT. MOREOVER, LURIE CHILDREN'S HAS STRONG RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS (SUCH AS HEALTH CLINICS AND SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES) AND COMMUNITY LEADERS WHO HELP IDENTIFY EXISTING COMMUNITY NEEDS AND WAYS TO ADDRESS SUCH NEEDS. LURIE CHILDREN'S IS ALSO A LEADER IN PEDIATRIC RESEARCH AIMED AT ADVANCEMENTS IN THE PREVENTION, DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF DISEASES THAT AFFECT THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN THROUGH ADOLESCENCE AS WELL AS ADULT DISORDERS THAT DERIVE FROM THEM. STANLEY MANNE CHILDREN'S RESEARCH INSTITUTE ("STANLEY MANNE RESEARCH INSTITUTE") IS ONE OF A FEW INSTITUTIONS IN THE U.S. DEDICATED EXCLUSIVELY TO PEDIATRIC RESEARCH. THIS RESEARCH AIDS IN THE IDENTIFICATION OF UNMET NEEDS FACED BY THE COMMUNITY AND, IN PARTICULAR, THE CHILDREN LURIE CHILDREN'S IS PRIVILEGED TO SERVE. IN 2018, LURIE CHILDRENS HOSPITAL AND THE CHICAGO DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH (CDPH) LAUNCHED "VOICES OF CHILD HEALTH IN CHICAGO" TO HEAR DIRECTLY FROM CHICAGO FAMILIES ABOUT THEIR MOST SIGNIFICANT CHILD HEALTH AND WELLNESS CONCERNS. THEY CONDUCTED A TELEPHONE SURVEY OF 3,310 ADULT CHICAGOANS IN 2017-2018 AND A FOLLOW-UP SURVEY OF 2,982 ADULTS IN CHICAGO IN 2018-2019. DATA FROM THE SURVEY HAS LED TO OVER 15 REPORTBRIEFS ON SPECIFIC TOPIC AREAS. BASED UPON ALL THESE VARIED ASSESSMENTS, LURIE CHILDREN'S, IN CONCERT WITH OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY, STRIVES TO ADDRESS IDENTIFIED NEEDS WHICH IT IS POSITIONED TO ASSIST WITH, PARTICULARLY THOSE RELATED TO THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF CHILDREN, THROUGH EDUCATION, RESEARCH AND PATIENT CARE PROGRAMS, IN KEEPING WITH ITS CHARITABLE MISSION AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY. FOR SPECIFIC EXAMPLES OF COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES OF LURIE CHILDREN'S, PLEASE SEE RESPONSE TO PART VI, LINE 5 BELOW. PART VI, LINE 3 PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE LURIE CHILDREN'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY IS COMMUNICATED TO THE PUBLIC AND PATIENTS FREQUENTLY AND IN MANY WAYS. NEW PATIENTS RECEIVE A WRITTEN NOTICE INFORMING THEM ABOUT LURIE CHILDREN'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND ARE REQUESTED TO SIGN A STATEMENT AT LEAST ANNUALLY CONFIRMING THAT THEY HAVE RECEIVED THIS POLICY. SIGNS ARE POSTED AT ALL AREAS OF REGISTRATION, LOBBIES OF OUR FACILITIES, RECEPTION, CLINICAL AREAS, WAITING ROOMS AND THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT DIRECTING PATIENTS WHO HAVE NEED OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO CONTACT OUR FINANCIAL COUNSELORS. PAMPHLETS, DISTRIBUTED THROUGH THE HOSPITAL AND OTHER FACILITIES, TITLED "BILLING/FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING YOUR BILL" PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT THE BILLS THAT THE PATIENTS CAN BE EXPECTED TO HAVE RECEIVED AND DIRECT PATIENTS WHO MAY NEED FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO CONTACT OUR FINANCIAL COUNSELORS. IN ADDITION, A LINK IS SHOWN ON OUR WEBSITE ENTITLED "BILLING & FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE". CLICKING ON THIS LINK WILL TAKE SOMEONE TO THE HOSPITAL'S APPLICATION FORM AND INSTRUCTIONS. AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS ALSO NOTED ON THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE FIRST PAGE OF THE PATIENT BILLING STATEMENT. LURIE CHILDREN'S HAS FINANCIAL COUNSELORS WHO ARE TRAINED TO ASSIST AND ADVISE PATIENTS AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF A VARIETY OF SOCIAL SERVICES AND RESOURCES, INCLUDING STATE MEDICAID, ALLKIDS (ANOTHER STATE INSURANCE PROGRAM AVAILABLE TO CHILDREN FROM FAMILIES WHOSE INCOME EXCEEDS THE THRESHOLDS FOR MEDICAID ELIGIBILITY) AND THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITABLE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THE HOSPITAL'S STAFF ACTIVELY ASSISTS INPATIENTS AND OUTPATIENT SURGERY PATIENTS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID IN APPLYING FOR AND OBTAINING THESE BENEFITS. IN THE AMBULATORY CLINIC SETTING APPLICATIONS FOR ALLKIDS ARE PROVIDED TO PATIENTS. WHERE INDIVIDUALS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR SUCH PROGRAMS AND THERE IS NEED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, LURIE CHILDREN'S FINANCIAL COUNSELORS ASSIST PATIENTS AND FAMILIES IN APPLYING FOR CHARITABLE ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE FROM THE HOSPITAL. A PATIENT MAY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT ANY TIME, INCLUDING AFTER APPLICABLE INSURANCE LIMITS MAY HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED. PART VI, LINE 4 COMMUNITY INFORMATION LURIE CHILDREN'S IS UNIQUE IN THE COMMUNITY AND THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AS IT IS THE ONLY FREESTANDING PEDIATRIC HOSPITAL IN THE STATE AND ITS TERTIARY SERVICES INCLUDES A LEVEL I TRAUMA CENTER AND LEVEL III NEONATAL NURSERY WHICH SERVES AS A REGIONAL REFERRAL CENTER FOR THE STATE OF ILLINOIS' PERINATAL NETWORK. IN ADDITION, FOR MORE THAN 60 YEARS, LURIE CHILDREN'S HAS SERVED AS THE PEDIATRIC TRAINING SITE FOR NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY'S FEINBERG SCHOOL OF MEDICINE, TRAINING RESIDENTS, MEDICAL STUDENTS AND FELLOWS WHO WILL COMPRISE THE NEXT GENERATION OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS. WHILE LURIE CHILDREN'S SERVES PATIENTS FROM ALL OVER THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AND ALL OTHER STATES AND 57 COUNTRIES, THE PRIMARY COMMUNITY SERVED BY LURIE CHILDREN'S IS CHILDREN FROM THE CHICAGO METROPOLITAN AREA, WITH THE PRIMARY SERVICE AREA DEFINED AS BEING THE CITY OF CHICAGO AND COOK, DUPAGE, KANE, KENDALL, LAKE, MCHENRY AND WILL COUNTIES IN ILLINOIS. APPROXIMATELY HALF OF THE INPATIENTS TO THE HOSPITAL LIVE WITHIN 10 MILES OF THE HOSPITAL AND MORE THAN HALF OF OUTPATIENTS RESIDE WITHIN 10 MILES. APPROXIMATELY HALF OF THE PATIENTS TREATED BY THE HOSPITAL IN FISCAL YEAR 2017 WERE MEDICAID RECIPIENTS. LURIE CHILDREN'S IS THE LARGEST PROVIDER OF MEDICAID PEDIATRIC SERVICES IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. ACCORDING TO THE MOST RECENT U.S. CENSUS BUREAU DATA, 20.1% OF FAMILIES WITH RELATED CHILDREN UNDER AGE 18 ARE BELOW THE U.S. POVERTY LEVEL. PATIENT DEMOGRAPHICS ARE DIVERSE AND INCLUDE A LARGE NUMBER OF FAMILIES WHOSE PRIMARY LANGUAGE IS NOT ENGLISH, DEMONSTRATED BY THE FACT THAT LURIE CHILDREN'S SPENT OVER $1 MILLION IN TRANSLATION SERVICES IN FY17. INTERPRETERS ON STAFF ASSISTED COMMUNICATION BETWEEN FAMILIES AND DOCTORS THROUGH A COMBINATION OF IN-PERSON, VIDEO OR TELEPHONIC INTERPRETATION. CLOSE TO 200 LANGUAGES WERE AVAILABLE VIA ANY HOSPITAL PHONE.

THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES MORE PEDIATRIC PATIENT CARE THAN ANY OTHER HOSPITAL IN ILLINOIS IN NEARLY EVERY PEDIATRIC AND SURGICAL SPECIALTY. LURIE CHILDREN'S OPERATES A 24-HOUR, 7 DAY-PER-WEEK PEDIATRIC EMERGENCY ROOM, INCLUDING A LEVEL I TRAUMA CENTER AND LEVEL III NEONATAL NURSERY THAT SERVES AS A REGIONAL REFERRAL CENTER FOR THE STATE OF ILLINOIS' PERINATAL NETWORK. THE HOSPITAL IS THE LARGEST PROVIDER OF MEDICAID SERVICES TO ILLINOIS CHILDREN. THE HOSPITAL'S PEDIATRIC PHYSICIAN SPECIALISTS PROVIDE MORE SERVICES TO CHILDREN INSURED BY THE STATE OF ILLINOIS' INSURANCE PROGRAM THAN ANY OTHER PROVIDER.
