OUR SPIRITUAL CARE DEPARTMENT ENGAGES OUR FAITH COMMUNITY WITH INVITATIONS TO ANY AND ALL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES AND ALSO PARTNERS WITH THE FAITH LEADERS TO REACH OUT TO THE MOST VULNERABLE POPULATIONS IN OUR COMMUNITY. IN 2018, 300 INDIVIDUALS PARTICIPATED IN OUR FCHC EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS. IN MANY OF THE ETHNIC COMMUNITIES AROUND UPMC PINNACLE HARRISBURG, THE FAITH LEADER IS THE MOST TRUSTED INDIVIDUAL AND MANY ARE PARTNERS OF UPMC PINNACLE BECAUSE OF THE RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE LEADERS OF OUR SPIRITUAL CARE DEPARTMENT AND THE FCHC INITIATIVE. WHEN MEMBERS OF THE FAITH COMMUNITY ARE ADMITTED TO A UPMC PINNACLE HOSPITAL, THE FAITH LEADER AND OUR FCHC LEADERS WORK TO ENSURE THAT THE PATIENT HAS ALL AVAILABLE SUPPORT AND SERVICES ALIGNED TO ASSIST IN A HEALTHY RECOVERY. LEADERS AT LOCAL CONGREGATIONS WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH PINNACLE STAFF TO:-PROVIDE ACCESS TO QUALITY HEALTH CARE AND HELP GUIDE INDIVIDUALS THROUGH THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM.-PROVIDE ADVOCACY TO EMPOWER CONGREGANTS IN HEALTHCARE DECISION MAKING.-CONNECT FAITH COMMUNITIES TO A NETWORK OF SUPPORT FOLLOWING ILLNESS, INJURY, AND HOSPITALIZATION.-CONNECT PEOPLE WITH EDUCATION AND SERVICES THAT WILL ENABLE THEM TO MAINTAIN OPTIMAL LEVELS OF HEALTH AND WELLBEING.-ASSIST UPMC PINNACLE STAFF IN PROVIDING CULTURALLY SENSITIVE SERVICES TO DIVERSE POPULATIONS.INDIGENT CARE FUND:EACH YEAR UPMC PINNACLE MAKES AVAILABLE $20,000 TO SIX LOCAL CLINICS THAT SERVE THE UNINSURED AND UNDERSERVED. IN FISCAL YEAR 2019 ANOTHER CLINIC WAS ADDED TO OUR INDIGENT CARE FUND WHICH WE MADE $5,000 AVAILABLE TO SERVE UNINSURED AND UNDERSERVED. IN FISCAL 2019, CLINICS UTILIZED APPROXIMATELY $146,345 TO PROVIDE DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AT NO COST TO THEIR PATIENTS. TO DATE, THE CONTINUUM PROJECT HAS DISBURSED OVER $642,546 IN FREE CARE FUNDS TO COVER THE COST OF DIAGNOSTIC SERVICES TO PATIENTS AT THE BEACON CLINIC, BETHESDA MISSION, COMMUNITY CHECK UP CENTER, HAMILTON HEALTH CENTER AND HOPE WITHIN CLINIC, AIM FREE CLINIC, AND MISSION OF MERCY. BASED ON UPMC PINNACLE GOALS AND THE ANALYSIS OF RELATED DATA TO DATE, THE FOLLOWING GOALS AND RELATED OUTCOMES HAVE BEEN NOTED:-DECREASE READMISSIONS WITHIN 30 DAYS FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER PATIENTS FROM 16% TO 14% IN EIGHTEEN MONTHS.THE TRANSFORMATION FROM A TRADITIONAL INPATIENT BASED HEALTH CARE MODEL TO A COLLABORATIVE, PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME MODEL REQUIRES A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL PATIENTS, PHYSICIANS, CLINICS, AND THE COMMUNITY-BASED PATIENT SUPPORT SYSTEM. PATIENT CARE IS FACILITATED BY THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NAVIGATION TEAM USING RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND A HEALTH INFORMATION EXCHANGE TO ENSURE PATIENTS GET THE INDICATED CARE WHEN AND WHERE THEY NEED AND WANT IT IN A CULTURALLY AND LINGUISTICALLY APPROPRIATE MANNER.CHILDREN'S RESOURCE CENTER (CRC): AS A TRUSTED PLACE FOR OUR COMMUNITY TO GO FOR ACCESS TO PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICES AND INFORMATION, UPMC PINNACLE AND ITS STAFF OF PROFESSIONALS MEET THE NEEDS OF A DIVERSE POPULATION WITH CULTURAL AWARENESS AND SENSITIVITY. THE CRC PARTNERS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT, DISTRICT ATTORNEY OFFICES, SOCIAL SERVICES, PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT SERVICES, CRISIS INTERVENTION, AND CHILD PROTECTION SERVICES TO PROVIDE EFFICIENT, QUALITY CARE IN A SAFE, CHILD-FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT FOR CHILDREN SUSPECTED OF HAVING BEEN ABUSED OR NEGLECTED. THROUGH ONGOING TRAINING AND EDUCATION IN THE COMMUNITY, THE CRC HAS SEEN AN INCREASE IN PARTICIPATION WITH PARTNERS AGENCIES IN AN EVER-WIDENING GEOGRAPHIC SERVICE AREA. THE CRC SERVED 1,112 CHILDREN IN 2018 AND APPROXIMATELY 1,118 CAREGIVERS. WE SAW CHILDREN FROM OVER 20 COUNTIES IN PENNSYLVANIA BUT ROUTINELY SERVED CHILDREN FROM DAUPHIN, CUMBERLAND, PERRY, LEBANON, SCHUYLKILL, JUNIATA, MIFFLIN, BLAIR, AND BEDFORD COUNTIES.LEAD AND HEALTHY HOMES PROGRAM (LHHP):THE UPMC PINNACLE LEAD POISONING PREVENTION PROGRAM (LPPEP) IS A NONPROFIT, SELF-SUPPORTING, NON-GRANT FUNDED PROGRAM THAT PASSIONATELY CARES ABOUT THE CHILDREN IN SOUTH CENTRAL PA. WITH OVER 24 YEARS OF CHILDHOOD LEAD POISONING PREVENTION EXPERIENCE, OUR TEAM OF HEALTH PROFESSIONALS INCLUDING REGISTERED NURSES AND PUBLIC HEALTH PERSONNEL WITH LICENSES IN NOT ONLY LEAD RISK ASSESSMENTS WITH AN EXPERTISE IN CHILDHOOD LEAD POISONING PREVENTION AND RECOGNITION, BUT ALSO ARE HEALTHY HOMES SPECIALISTS BY THE NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION (NEHA), AND ASBESTOS BUILDING INSPECTORS. WHEN A CHILD IS DIAGNOSED WITH AN ELEVATED LEAD LEVEL (EBL) BY THEIR PHYSICIAN, PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT, OR NURSE PRACTITIONER; THE LPPEP WILL CONTACT THE PARENT TO DISCUSS THE LEAD ELEVATION AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR AN ENVIRONMENTAL LEAD INVESTIGATION AT THEIR HOME. IN ADDITION, THE REGISTERED NURSE WILL: REVIEW POSSIBLE CAUSES OF ELEVATED LEAD ASK ABOUT CHIPPING AND PEELING PAINT IN THE HOME DETERMINE THE AGE OF THE HOME (THROUGH PUBLIC RECORDS) INQUIRE ABOUT ANY HOME RENOVATIONS CURRENTLY OR PREVIOUSLY CONDUCTED IN OR AROUND THE HOME REQUEST INFORMATION ABOUT OTHER HOMES, DAY CARES, SCHOOLS, OR PLACES WHERE THE CHILD SPENDS TIME, AND THESE WILL BE INVESTIGATED AS WELL. ASK ABOUT ANY OTHER CHILDREN OR PREGNANT MOMS IN THE FAMILY, AND IF THEY WERE TESTED FOR EBL REVIEW DIET, AND RECOMMEND NUTRITION INFORMATION FOR CHILDREN WITH EBL DISCUSS THE IMPORTANCE OF VITAMINS STRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF FOLLOW UP LEAD TESTING FOR THE CHILD REFER TO EARLY INTERVENTION AND THE INTERMEDIATE UNIT REFER TO OTHER SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES, I.E. HEAD START, WIC PREPARE WRITTEN LITERATURE AND OTHER EDUCATIONAL PAMPHLETS ABOUT LEAD POISONING TO BE GIVEN AT THE HOME VISIT. IF REQUESTED, THESE CAN ALSO BE MAILED TO THE PARENT. THE UPMC LPPEP LICENSED RISK ASSESSOR WILL TEST EACH ROOM OF THE HOUSE; PAINTED, TILED, OR VARNISHED SURFACES, BATHTUBS IF APPLICABLE, AND ALSO THE OUTSIDE OF THE HOME, INCLUDING PORCHES AND OUT-BUILDINGS. SOIL AND WATER SAMPLES WILL BE TAKEN IF DEEMED NECESSARY. SOIL OF A GARDEN OR POTENTIAL GARDEN IS ALWAYS SAMPLED. PLUMBING WILL BE EXAMINED FOR LEAD PIPES AND SOLDERING. ALSO, THE LPPEP STAFF IS EXPERIENCED IN RECOGNIZING MANY OTHER FORMS OF LEAD POISONING IN CHILDREN WHICH ARE ON THE RISE. THESE INCLUDE:(CONT'D AT END)
PART III, LINE 3: THE PERCENTAGE OF GROSS CHARGES REPRESENTED BY THOSE PATIENTS QUALIFYING FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AS COMPARED TO TOTAL GROSS CHARGES WAS CALCULATED. THIS PERCENTAGE WAS APPLIED TO THE ESTIMATED NET BAD DEBTS AMOUNT TO ESTIMATE THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBTS ASSOCIATED WITH PATIENTS QUALIFYING FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. THIS AMOUNT IS BEING REFLECTED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT SINCE THIS AMOUNT IS NOT BEING PURSUED UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S BAD DEBT POLICY BUT TO THE QUALIFICATION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BY THE PATIENT.
PART II: COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES CULTURAL- APPLICATION OF KOHL, SINDOOR IN MIDDLE EASTERN AND ASIAN IMMIGRANTS AND OTHER CULTURAL MAKE-UP. SPICES IMPORTED FROM OTHER COUNTRIES. (TURMERIC, HOT PEPPER CHILI POWDER, AND PAPRIKA) - THESE ARE SOMETIMES IN UNMARKED PACKAGES, AND WE SEND THEM TO A CODETIFIED LAB FOR LEAD TESTING. TOYS AND CANDY MADE OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES CANDY WRAPPERS MADE OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES CHILDREN AND ADULT JEWELRY CONTAINING LEAD AND KEYS DISHES AND OTHER CONTAINERS WHICH CONTAIN LEAD IN THE GLAZE RICE COOKERS, COOKING POTTERY SOIL CONTAMINATED WITH LEAD FROM EXTERIOR PAINT FROM THE HOME, OUT-HOUSES, GARAGES, AND ALSO WHERE THE AREA AROUND THE HOME WAS USED FOR AUTO REPAIR PRIOR TO 1978 WHEN LEAD GASOLINE WAS BANNED. (ALL OF THE ABOVE WERE ACTUALLY FOUND TO BE CAUSES OF SOME OF OUR INVESTIGATIONS FOR SOURCES OF LEAD TOXICITY IN CHILDREN)WE ALSO WILL INVESTIGATE ANY HOBBIES WHERE LEAD IS INVOLVED SUCH AS STAINED GLASS REPAIR, MAKING OR RELOADING BULLETS, AND TARGET SHOOTING AT THE RANGE. THE NURSE WILL ALSO INQUIRE ABOUT OCCUPATIONS WHICH INVOLVE LEAD SUCH AS: BRIDGE PAINTING BATTERY MANUFACTURING CONSTRUCTION WORKERS DEMOLITION WORKERS FIRE RANGE WORKERS PIPE FITTERSONCE THE INSPECTION IS COMPLETED AND THE DUST/WATER/SOIL SAMPLES HAVE BEEN ANALYZED, A COMPLETE DETAILED X-RAY FLUORESCENCE (XFR) ANALYZER REPORT AND LETTER WITH OUR FINDINGS AND EXPERT OPINION OF THE SOURCE OF LEAD ARE SENT TO THE: PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER PARENTS LANDLORD STATE HEALTH NURSE FOR THE COUNTY CODES DEPARTMENT AS YOU CAN SEE, UPMC PINNACLE LPPEP GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND WHEN CONDUCTING A THOROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL LEAD INSPECTION WITH A DEDICATED AND COMPASSIONATE STAFF. UPMC PINNACLE LPPEP STAFF ARE CERTIFIED IN NEHA'S HEALTH HOMES CREDENTIALING, AND HAVE MANY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN ASSURING FAMILY HOMES ARE SAFE. WE ARE EXPERTS ON LEAD AS WELL AS: RADON ASTHMA (INCLUDING ASTHMA TRIGGERS) ALLERGIES MOLD CARBON MONOXIDE HOME SAFETY INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT (BEDBUGS, MICE, RATS, COCKROACHES)*IF THE LEAD RISK ASSESSOR DOES A HOME VISIT, AND RECOGNIZES ANY OF THE ABOVE, THEY ARE PROVIDED EXPERT EDUCATION AS WELL AS REFERRALS TO ASSIST THEM TO CORRECT THESE UNHEALTHY HOME ISSUES.IF THE FAMILY DECIDES TO MOVE OUT OF THEIR HOME DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF LEAD FOUND, OUR LPPEP WILL OFFER TO DO A HOME VISIT AT THE NEW HOME TO ASSURE THEY ARE LEAD SAFE THERE.WE ALSO PROVIDE HOME CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS AND SUPPLIES FOR PARENTS. WE HAVE A TRUE PORTABLE INDUSTRIAL HEPA-VAC WE LEND OUT THAT ACTUALLY WILL PICK UP LEAD DUST (UNLIKE COMMERCIAL HEPA-VACS). WE ASK THEM NOT TO REMOVE THE CATCH BAG, AND ONCE WE PICK UP THE HEPA-VAC, WE ASSURE IT IS DISPOSED OF PROPERLY. FOR MANY YEARS WE HAVE BEEN CONDUCTING LEAD RISK ASSESSMENTS. WE HAVE DONE MANY THOUSAND LEAD INVESTIGATIONS IN SOUTH CENTRAL, NORTH CENTRAL, AND NORTHEAST PA. IN FISCAL YEAR 2019, WE RECEIVED 190 REFERRALS AND CONDUCTED 162 ENVIRONMENTAL LEAD INSPECTIONS. SINCE JULY OF 2016, WE HAVE RECEIVED 830 REFERRALS FOR CHILDREN WITH ELEATED BLOOD LEAD LEVELS. WE COVER 15 COUNTIES, BUT 40% ARE IN LANCASTER, 30% ARE IN DAUPHIN, 15% IN LEBANON AND THE REMAINING 15% ARE SPREAD OVER 12 DIFFERENT COUNTIES. OF THAT 830, ENVIRONMENTAL HOME ASSESSMENTS WERE COMPLETED AT APPROXIMATELY 630 HOMES. ALL FAMILIES, INCLUDING THE REMAINDER, RECEIVED COMPREHENSIVE AND THOROUGH LEAD EDUCATION EITHER VIA A HOME VISIT OR TELEPHONE. LEAD POISONING PREVENTION LITERATURE WAS GIVEN TO ALL FAMILIES TOO. RESOURCE EDUCATION AND COMPREHENSIVE CARE FOR HIV (REACCH):THE UPMC PINNACLE REACCH PROGRAM SERVES AS A COMPREHENSIVE MEDICAL CARE PROGRAM FOR ALL PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV/AIDS WITHIN THE SOUTH CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA REGION. IN 2018, REACCH SERVED 665 RACIALLY DIVERSE PATIENTS OF WHICH 42% WERE AFRICAN AMERICAN, 43% CAUCASIAN/NON-HISPANIC, 12% HISPANIC, AND 3% MULTI-RACIAL OR OTHER. ALMOST ALL PATIENTS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO OBTAIN HEALTH INSURANCE THROUGH THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT AND EXPANDED MEDICAID. 32% ARE COVERED BY MEDICAID, 28% ARE COVERED BY MEDICARE, 27% HAVE PRIVATE INSURANCE AND ONLY 5% ARE UNINSURED. 69% OF REACCH PATIENTS LIVE IN HARRISBURG CITY, 9% IN OTHER PARTS OF DAUPHIN COUNTY, 13% IN CUMBERLAND COUNTY, 3% IN PERRY COUNTY, AND THE REMAINDER RESIDE IN FRANKLIN, YORK, OR OTHER SURROUNDING COUNTIES. IN ADDITION TO HIV TREATMENT, PRIMARY MEDICAL CARE AND COMPREHENSIVE DENTAL CARE, STAFF SEEK TO REMOVE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC BARRIERS TO CARE BY PROVIDING TREATMENT ADHERENCE COUNSELING, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH COUNSELING, CASE MANAGEMENT, SOCIAL WORK SERVICES, NUTRITION THERAPY, AND FINANCIAL COUNSELING. REACCH ALSO PROVIDES OUTREACH AND TESTING WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, SEEKING TO IDENTIFY HIV+ INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT KNOW THEIR STATUS THROUGH TESTING HIGH-RISK POPULATIONS, AND REACHING OUT TO INDIVIDUALS KNOWN TO BE POSITIVE BUT WHO ARE NOT ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN MEDICAL TREATMENT. IN 2018, 862 INDIVIDUALS WERE TESTED THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. REACCH HAS EXCELLENT PROGRAM OUTCOMES. 90% OF REACCH PATIENTS CONSISTENTLY HAVE AN UNDETECTABLE AMOUNT OF HIV IN THEIR BLOOD, COMPARED WITH THE NATIONAL RATE OF ONLY 33%. 115 BABIES HAVE BEEN BORN TO HIV+ MOTHERS THROUGH THE REACCH PROGRAM, AND THERE HAS BEEN NO VERTICAL TRANSMISSION OF HIV; ALL OF THESE BABIES ARE HIV NEGATIVE. THROUGH OUR HOMELESS PREVENTION PROGRAM (RYAN WHITE HOUSING) AT REACCH, WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HELP 75 PATIENTS WITH HOUSING ASSISTANCE PREVENTING HOMELESSNESS.
PART III, LINE 4: THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT HAVE A SPECIFIC NOTE ON BAD DEBT EXPENSE; RATHER THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS EVALUATE BAD DEBTS ON ITS ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. THE FOOTNOTE RELATED TO THE ALLOWANCE IS SUMMARIZED AS FOLLOWS: "ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE RECORDED AT THEIR ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE VALUE. THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS IS ESTIMATED BASED UPON HISTORICAL COLLECTION RATES."THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE ON PART III, LINE 2 WAS CALCULATED BY TAKING THE AMOUNT WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT FOR EACH ACCOUNT AND CONVERTING IT TO CHARGES BY APPROPRIATELY ADJUSTING THE AMOUNT BY THE PAYOR REIMBURSEMENT PERCENTAGE FOR THAT ACCOUNT. THEN, THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO FOR EACH SPECIFIC ACCOUNT, UTILIZING THE COSTS FROM THE HOSPITAL COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM (DESCRIBED IN DETAIL ABOVE), WAS APPLIED TO THIS CALCULATED PORTION OF THE TOTAL CHARGES.FOR THE PORTION OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE THAT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY, THE HOSPITAL DETERMINED THE CITY OF HARRISBURG ZIP CODES THAT PRIMARILY INCLUDE PUBLIC HOUSING. THEN WE REVIEWED OUR BAD DEBT WRITE-OFFS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR TO DETERMINE THE ACCOUNTS WHERE THE PATIENT ADDRESS WAS INCLUDED IN THOSE ZIP CODES. AN OVERALL COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS THEN APPLIED TO THIS AMOUNT TO ARRIVE AT AN EXPENSE FIGURE. THIS AMOUNT CONTINUES TO DECREASE EACH YEAR AS WE HAVE FURTHER DEVELOPED OUR PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY CARE AND FINANCIAL AID APPROACH.
PART III, LINE 8: THE MEDICARE COSTS WERE DETERMINED BASED ON THE HOSPITALS' COST TO CHARGE RATIO FOR THE SERVICES RENDERED.
PART III, LINE 9B: PATIENTS ARE NOTIFIED OF OUR CHARITY CARE POLICY IN A VARIETY OF WAYS.

ALL OF OUR PATIENT ACCOUNT STATEMENTS CONTAIN LANGUAGE THAT INDICATES THERE IS FINANCIAL AID AVAILABLE FOR QUALIFYING INDIVIDUALS. IN ADDITION, THE POLICY AND APPLICATION ARE POSTED ON THE HOSPITAL WEBSITE IN BOTH ENGLISH AND SPANISH. PATIENTS WHO APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND PROVIDE ALL THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS ARE NOTIFIED WITHIN THIRTY DAYS OF THE HOSPITAL'S DECISION. WHEN THE APPROVAL IS DETERMINED, THE APPROPRIATE DISCOUNT IS POSTED TO THE PATIENT ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY. THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT WILL BE APPLIED TO SERVICE FOR THE PREVIOUS TWELVE MONTHS AND SUBSEQUENT SIX MONTHS. THE HOSPITAL'S COLLECTION POLICY CONTAINS PROVISIONS ON THE COLLECTION PRACTICES TO BE FOLLOWED FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE. NO ADDITIONAL COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE MADE. APPLICANTS APPROVED FOR ONLY PARTIAL DISCOUNT WILL BE REQUIRED TO MAKE REASONABLE PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS ON THEIR BALANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE HOSPITAL'S CREDIT AND COLLECTION POLICY. THIS POLICY DOES PERMIT THE USE OF BOTH INTERNAL COLLECTION STAFF AND EXTERNAL COLLECTION AGENCIES WHO WILL ENGAGE IN STANDARD ACCEPTABLE BUSINESS PRACTICES WHICH INCLUDE PHONE CALLS, MAILING AND THE REPORTING OF UNPAID DEBT TO THE CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES; BUT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL THE HOSPITALS OR ITS CONTRACTED COLLECTION AGENCY ADOPT "EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS" THAT ENTAIL ANY LEGAL COURSE OF ACTION OR JUDICIAL PROCESSES SUCH AS LAWSUITS OR LIENS.

Return Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 3 UPMC PINNACLE HOSPITALS RELIES ON UPMC PINNACLE, A RELATED ORGANIZATION, TO ESTABLISH THE COMPENSATION OF THE ORGANIZATION'S CEO AND OTHER OFFICERS. METHODS USED TO ESTABLISH COMPENSATION BY THE RELATED ORGANIZATION INCLUDE: * COMPENSATION COMMITTEE * INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT * COMPENSATION SURVEY OR STUDY * APPROVAL BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD
PART I, LINES 4A-B MICHAEL YOUNG, THE FORMER CEO, RECEIVED A SEVERANCE PAYMENT OF $1,035,976 DURING THE YEAR. FELIX GUTIERREZ, A DIRECTOR AND PINNACLE HEALTH CARDIOVASCULAR INSTITUTE EMPLOYEE, PARTICIPATES IN A NONQUALIFIED PLAN. UPMC PINNACLE CONTRIBUTED $16,500 TO THE PLAN DURING THE FISCAL YEAR. UPMC PROVIDES SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT BENEFITS TO ITS FORMER CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER (THE "FORMER CEO") THROUGH AN ALTERNATIVE FUNDING ARRANGEMENT THE IRS CALLS "LOAN-REGIME SPLIT-DOLLAR" ("LRSD"). ALTHOUGH THE IRS REQUIRES LRSD TO COMPLY WITH THE TAX PRINCIPLES OF A LOAN FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES (IRC 7872), LRSD IS NOT AN ACTUAL LOANNO FUNDS ARE TRANSFERRED TO THE EXECUTIVE. RATHER, THE "LOAN" TREATMENT APPLIES BECAUSE AFTER THE EXECUTIVE HAS RECEIVED RETIREMENT BENEFITS (SUBJECT TO VESTING REQUIREMENTS AND POLICY INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE), UPMC RECOVERS ALL ITS OUTLAYS PLUS A MARKET RATE OF INTEREST. AS WITH AN EMPLOYER-EMPLOYEE LOAN, AND CONSISTENT WITH THE 2003 FINAL REGULATIONS AND IRC 7872, THE PLAN IS NON-COMPENSATORY TO THE PARTICIPATING EXECUTIVE, AS THE LOAN IS REPAID PLUS INTEREST UPON THE DEATH OF THE EXECUTIVE. UNDER THE REGULATIONS, THERE IS NO COMPENSATION IMPUTED TO THE EXECUTIVE. THE UPMC LRSD PLAN WORKS AS FOLLOWS. UPMC DEPOSITED FUNDS DIRECTLY INTO CASH VALUE LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES ON THE FORMER CEO'S LIFE. DURING LIFE, TO THE EXTENT THE FORMER CEO FULFILLED SERVICE AND VESTING REQUIREMENTS, THE FORMER CEO CAN BORROW AGAINST VALUES IN THE POLICIES TO SUPPLEMENT RETIREMENT INCOME. POLICY PERFORMANCE IS CLOSELY MONITORED. IF POLICY PERFORMANCE LAGS, THE FORMER CEO'S BORROWING RIGHTS COULD BE REDUCED TO PROTECT UPMC'S RECOVERY RIGHTS. AT THE FORMER CEO'S DEATH, THE POLICY DEATH PROCEEDS ARE FIRST USED TO REPAY UPMC ITS DEPOSITS PLUS COMPOUNDED INTEREST (AT THE IRS LONG-TERM APPLICABLE FEDERAL RATE). THE FORMER CEO'S BENEFICIARY THEN RECEIVES ANY PROJECTED RETIREMENT BORROWING NOT ACCESSED DURING LIFE.
