Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 7: KDMC USED WORKSHEET 2 PROVIDED IN THE SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS (FORM 990) TO CALCULATE A COST TO CHARGE RATIO. THIS RATIO WAS USED TO CALCULATE CHARITY CARE AT COST. TO CALCULATE UNPAID COSTS OF MEDICAID, THE HOSPITAL'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM WAS USED, ALONG WITH DATA FROM THE KY MEDICAID COST REPORT. ALL OTHER ITEMS WERE REPORTED AS NET EXPENSE.
PART I, LN 7 COL(F): THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $23,994,308.
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: THE EXPENSES REPORTED IN PART II FOR COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES ARE THE EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH RECRUITING PHYSICIANS TO MEDICALLY UNDER-SERVED AREAS (MURS). THESE EXPENSES ARE NECESSARY TO ENSURE OUR COMMUNITY IS STAFFED WITH THE PHYSICIANS TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE LIVING HERE.
PART III, LINE 2: KDMC USED WORKSHEET 2 IN THE SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS (FORM 990) TO CALCULATE A COST TO CHARGE RATIO. THIS RATIO WAS USED TO CALCULATE BAD DEBT EXPENSE AT COST.
PART III, LINE 3: BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS RECORDED AFTER ANY DISCOUNTS AND PAYMENTS ARE MADE ON PATIENT ACCOUNTS. HOWEVER, THE BUSINESS OFFICE DOES NOT KEEP TRACK OF "NO-RESPONSE" APPLICATIONS AND DOES NOT FEEL THAT THE PORTION CONSIDERED TO BE A COMMUNITY BENEFIT IS MATERIAL.
PART III, LINE 4: PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE REPORTED AT NET REALIZABLE VALUE. ACCOUNTS ARE WRITTEN OFF WHEN THEY ARE DETERMINED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS. IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE MEDICAL CENTER ANALYZES ITS PAST HISTORY AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, THE MEDICAL CENTER ANALYZES CONTRACTUAL AMOUNTS DUE AND PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS, IF NECESSARY. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS (WHICH INCLUDES BOTH PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE AND INSURED PATIENTS WITH DEDUCTIBLE AND COPAYMENT BALANCES), THE MEDICAL CENTER RECORDS A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IN THE PERIOD OF SERVICE ON THE BASIS OF ITS PAST EXPERIENCE, WHICH INDICATES THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BILLED RATES AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS.
PART III, LINE 8: THE HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO PROVIDE CARE TO ALL PRESENTING AND ADMITTED PATIENTS, REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE COSTS TO PROVIDE CARE, RECEIVING "LESS" THAN WHAT IT COSTS TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE CARE TO MEDICARE COVERED LIVES DOES THE HOSPITAL A DISSERVICE. THIS SHORTFALL SHOULD COUNT AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THE HOSPITAL USES THE ALLOWABLE COSTS PER THE MEDICARE COST REPORT, THE MOST RECENT COST REPORT DATA, AND PROVIDER STATISTICAL AND REIMBURSEMENT REPORT WAS USED TO COMPUTE THE INFORMATION.
PART III, LINE 9B: THE HOSPITAL HAS A WRITTEN POLICY FOR BAD DEBT. UNINSURED PATIENTS ARE SCREENED FOR ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICARE, MEDICAID AND OTHER SUCH PROGRAMS BY A CONTRACTED VENDOR. ALL PATIENTS, INSURED AND UNINSURED, WITH VALID MAILING ADDRESSES RECEIVE POST-DISCHARGE BILLING STATEMENTS OVER THE COURSE OF A 120 DAY PERIOD. IF THERE ARE NO ACTIVE DISPUTES OR OTHER PAYMENT SOURCES AVAILABLE, AND THE BALANCE IS UNPAID AT THE END OF THE STATEMENT PERIOD, THE ACCOUNT WILL BE PLACED WITH A COLLECTION AGENCY TO REPORT AS A BAD DEBT. EACH STATEMENT INCLUDES INFORMATION REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM ALONG WITH A NUMBER WHERE REPRESENTATIVES CAN BE REACHED FOR ASSISTANCE.
PART VI, LINE 2: WE USE A VARIETY OF RESOURCES TO HELP MAKE DECISIONS ON HOW TO BEST TARGET OUR ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING INFORMATION FROM OUR COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT, STATE AND COUNTY MORTALITY DATA AND HOSPITAL DATA. WE HAVE AN ACTIVE PATIENT ADVISORY COUNCIL THAT GIVES INPUT ON NEEDS, ACTIVITIES, AND PROCESSES FOR THE MEDICAL CENTER. WE HAVE CHAPLAINS, PATIENT REPRESENTATIVES AND SOCIAL WORKERS WHO ALSO HELP IDENTIFY AND MEET NEEDS. WE ARE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN THE COMMUNITY PARTICIPATING ON A HEALTH COALITION, NON-PROFIT BOARDS, ATTENDING COMMUNITY PROGRAMS/MEETINGS AND OTHER ACTIVITIES TO HELP KEEP US INFORMED OF NEEDS, CONCERNS AND ISSUES. ONCE WE KNOW ISSUES WE WANT TO TARGET, OUR COMMUNITY HEALTH ISSUES ARE BUILT INTO THE MEDICAL CENTER'S STRATEGIC PLAN. IN ADDITION TO THE TRI-ANNUAL CHNA, KDMC'S ONCOLOGY SERVICE LINE CONDUCTS A CANCER SPECIFIC ASSESSMENT EVERY THREE YEARS. THIS ASSESSMENT IS PART OF THE PART OF THE STANDARD OF ACCREDITATION SET BY THE COMMISSION ON CANCER (COC) OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS (ACOS) TO ADDRESS HEALTH CARE DISPARITIES AND BARRIERS TO CANCER CARE. THE ASSESSMENT COVERS THE PRIMARY COUNTIES SERVED BY KDMC AND KDOH. THE LATEST NEED ASSESSMENT WAS CONDUCTED AUGUST 2018.
PART VI, LINE 3: THE MEDICAL CENTER'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY PROVIDES DIRECTION FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED SERVICES TO RESIDENTS OF THE COMMUNITY WHO HAVE INADEQUATE FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO PAY FOR NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES PROVIDED BY KING'S DAUGHTERS. THE POLICY STATES THAT THE MEDICAL CENTER WILL NOT DENY CARE TO ANY PATIENT REQUIRING CARE DUE TO THEIR INABILITY TO PAY. THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY PROVIDES GUIDANCE TO PROVIDING ASSISTANCE BASED ON SLIDING SCALE METHODOLOGY AND THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES ESTABLISHED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES. PATIENTS REQUIRING CARE WITH INCOME BELOW 300% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL QUALIFY FOR FREE OR REDUCED COST SERVICES. KING'S DAUGHTERS ALSO CONTRACTS WITH CARDON OUTREACH TO ASSIST PATIENTS IN GOVERNMENT ENROLLMENT PROGRAMS. THERE ARE VARIOUS WAYS THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM IS CONVEYED TO THE COMMUNITY: KDMC WEBSITE, SIGNS IN VARIOUS PATIENT REGISTRATION AREAS, OUTBOUND/INBOUND CUSTOMER SERVICES CALLS, STATEMENT LANGUAGE, AND CERTAIN COMMUNITY EVENTS ("IN THE KNOW" NIGHT FOR BOYD CO. SCHOOLS).
PART VI, LINE 4: KING'S DAUGHTERS MEDICAL CENTER IS LOCATED IN EASTERN KENTUCKY, WHERE THE KENTUCKY, OHIO AND WEST VIRGINIA LINES MEET. KDMC'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA ENCOMPASSES SIX COUNTIES IN TWO STATES: BOYD, CARTER, GREENUP AND LAWRENCE IN KY AND LAWRENCE AND SCIOTO IN OHIO.
