THE MEDICAL CENTER'S CHC UNANIMOUSLY VOTED TO SELECT THREE HEALTH PRIORITIES TO ADDRESS FOR THE 2014 2016 CHNA, INCLUDING CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION/MANAGEMENT; BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH. HEALTH NEEDS SELECTED CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION/MANAGEMENT. ONE OF THE PRIORITIES SELECTED WAS CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION MANAGEMENT. THE FIRST STRATEGY WAS TO CREATE A MULTI-COMPONENT, SUSTAINABLE, SCHOOL-BASED OBESITY PREVENTION PROGRAM IN AN ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC PSA SCHOOL WHOSE STUDENTS HAD BEEN IDENTIFIED AS HAVING HIGH CHILDHOOD OBESITY RATES. IN 2019, ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC PARTNERED WITH IRV AND SHELLY'S FRESH PICKS TO PROVIDE THREE POP-UP FARMER'S MARKETS (OVER 5,00 POUNDS OF FRESH PRODUCE) TO OVER 550 STUDENTS AND FAMILIES AT GROVER CLEVELAND ELEMENTARY SCHOOL (CLEVELAND). ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC NURSES PROVIDED HEALTH AND NUTRITION EDUCATION THAT INCLUDED HEALTHY RECIPES AND MY PLATE EDUCATION FROM THE USDA TO THE PARENTS OF STUDENTS ATTENDING CLEVELAND. THE SECOND STRATEGY WAS TO IMPLEMENT A VOLUNTEER-BASED FOLLOW-UP PROGRAMTHE TRANSITION SUPPORT PROGRAMFOR DISCHARGED PATIENTS EXPERIENCING CHRONIC DISEASES AND WITH FREQUENT READMISSION HISTORIES (READMITTED WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER DISCHARGE FOR ALL CAUSES). IN 2019, THE MEDICAL CENTER'S TRANSITION SUPPORT PROGRAM TRAINED 34 VOLUNTEERS, NAVIGATED 2,616 PATIENTS AND PROVIDED 130 INDIVIDUALS WITH TRANSPORTATION NEEDS. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH.

TO ADDRESS THIS HEALTH CONCERN, THE MEDICAL CENTER OFFERED MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID (MHFA) TO COMMUNITIES WITH HIGH RATES OF ED VISITS DUE TO MENTAL HEALTH EMERGENCIES WITHIN ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC'S PSA. IN 2019, THE MEDICAL CENTER COMPLETED FIVE MHFA TRAININGS WITH 130 COMMUNITY MEMBERS COMPLETING THE TRAINING. ADDITIONALLY, TWO CHURCHES COMPLETED THE BRIDGES OF HOPE TRAINING, A TRAINING FOR FAITH-BASED INSTITUTIONS TO PROMOTE MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS. IN 2019, THE MEDICAL CENTER, ALONG WITH THE ALLIANCE, DEVELOPED UNIVERSAL MHFA METRICS AND INDICATORS TO ENABLE THE COLLABORATIVE TO PRODUCE AND EVALUATE THE COLLECTIVE IMPACT OF THE TRAININGS. ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC PARTICIPATED IN ALL FOUR MENTAL HEALTH SUBCOMMITTEE MEETINGS IN 2019 AND WILL CONTINUE TO PLAY AN ACTIVE ROLE IN THE COMMITTEE MOVING FORWARD. SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH (SDOH). SDOH WAS THE THIRD IDENTIFIED NEED IN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S PSA. ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC SERVED AS A SITE FOR THE ADVOCATE WORKFORCE INITIATIVE. THE GOAL OF THE WORKFORCE PROGRAM IS TO RECRUIT, TRAIN AND HIRE COMMUNITY MEMBERS SEEKING EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY. ADDITIONALLY, THE WORKFORCE PROGRAM OFFERS AN INCUMBENT WORKER STRATEGY (NAVIGATE) TO FRONT-LINE WORKFORCE AT ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC, WHICH INCLUDES SOFT-SKILLS TRAINING, TOOLS AND RESOURCES DESIGNED TO ASSIST INDIVIDUALS IN DEVELOPING CAREER PATHWAYS. IN 2019, 70 INDIVIDUALS FROM THE MEDICAL CENTER'S PSA ENROLLED IN THE PROGRAM. OF THOSE 70 ENROLLEES, 49 PARTICIPANTS COMPLETED THE TRAINING AND 7 OF THESE INDIVIDUALS WERE EMPLOYED IN THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY. ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC COLLABORATES WITH OTHER HOSPITALS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO DEVELOP INTERVENTIONS THAT WILL IMPACT SDOH. ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC PARTICIPATED IN FOUR OF THE ALLIANCE'S SUBCOMMITTEE MEETINGS. THE MEDICAL CENTER WILL CONTINUE TO BE ENGAGED IN THESE MEETINGS AND IDENTIFY PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES AS STRATEGIES ARE CREATED. ADDITIONALLY, ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC TEAM MEMBERS ATTENDED THE CHICAGOLAND HEALTHCARE WORKFORCE COLLABORATION MEETINGS TO ADDRESS KEY PRIORITY AREAS, INCLUDING TARGETED HIRING, EDUCATION, TRAINING AND RETENTION. HEALTH NEEDS NOT SELECTED HEALTH LITERACY/LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL COMPETENCY. HEALTH LITERACY/LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL COMPETENCY WAS IDENTIFIED AS A HEALTH NEED BUT NOT SELECTED IN THE 2016 CHNA AS A PRIORITY TO BE ADDRESSED. HEALTH LITERACY IS THE DEGREE TO WHICH AN INDIVIDUAL HAS THE CAPACITY TO OBTAIN, COMMUNICATE, PROCESS AND UNDERSTAND BASIC HEALTH INFORMATION AND SERVICES TO MAKE APPROPRIATE HEALTH DECISIONS. THE CHC INITIALLY RANKED THIS ISSUE FOURTH. THE MEDICAL CENTER'S DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION WORKGROUP IS SPEARHEADING WORK ON THIS ISSUE. SEVERAL ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC CHC MEMBERS SERVE ON THE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION WORKGROUP SO COORDINATION BETWEEN THE TWO GROUPS IS EASILY ACHIEVABLE. STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE INCLUDE INCREASING THE QUANTITY OF SPANISH LANGUAGE MATERIALS PRODUCED AND DISSEMINATED; THE LGBTQ TASKFORCE AND COMMUNITY ACTION COUNCIL; AND GREATER USE OF CASE MANAGERS AND COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS. BREAST CANCER. BREAST CANCER WAS IDENTIFIED BUT NOT SELECTED AS A HEALTH PRIORITY TO ADDRESS IN THE 2016 CHNA. THE CRETICOS CANCER CENTER LOCATED ON THE ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC CAMPUSUNITES ALL CANCER CARE AND RESEARCH UNDER ONE ROOF FOR MORE EFFICIENT AND PERSONALIZED PLANNING AND TREATMENT. THE CENTER OFFERS A WEALTH OF SERVICES TO ADDRESS THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF CANCER PATIENTS THROUGHOUT THE CONTINUUM OF CARE. THE NEW CENTER FOR ADVANCED CARE THAT OPENED IN 2015, ENABLED ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC TO EXPAND AND CENTRALIZE OUTPATIENT SURGERY, DIGESTIVE HEALTH AND CANCER SERVICES INTO ONE LOCATION, CREATING IMPROVED ACCESS TO CARE, CONTINUITY AMONG DISCIPLINES, ENHANCED EFFICIENCIES AND A BETTER OVERALL EXPERIENCE FOR PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. THERE IS AN EXTENSIVE RANGE OF CANCER SUPPORT SERVICES, INCLUDING BILINGUAL SPANISH/ENGLISH PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT, COUNSELING AND FINANCIAL NAVIGATION. NURSE NAVIGATORS PROVIDE LINKAGE WITH COMMUNITY PROGRAMS, PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION, PAIN MANAGEMENT SERVICES AND PALLIATIVE CARE, AND HOSPICE AND HOME CARE PROGRAMS. IN 2016 THROUGH 2017, THE CANCER CENTER PROVIDED COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS TO WORK WITH BREAST HEALTH PATIENTS INCLUDING MAKING REMINDER CALLS FOR MAMMOGRAMS AND CONDUCTING COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND EDUCATION IN AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S PSA. IN ADDITION, THE MEDICAL CENTER WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE ILLINOIS BREAST AND CERVICAL CANCER PROGRAM TO ENSURE THAT UNINSURED WOMEN HAVE ACCESS TO SCREENING AND TREATMENT FOR BREAST OR CERVICAL CANCER. THE CENTER ALSO HAS A BREAST CANCER SUPPORT GROUP FOR LATINAS AND IS DEVELOPING A CANCER SUPPORT GROUP FOR THE LBGTQ COMMUNITY.

THERE ARE SIX FOCUS AREAS THAT ARE IDENTIFIED IN CURRENT INDUSTRY AS HAVING THE MOST UPSTREAM EFFECT ON HEALTH EQUITY AND ARE ALSO STRONGLY CONFIRMED BY ADVOCATE AURORA HEALTH ORGANIZATION-WIDE CHNA DATA. THESE SIX FOCUS AREAS INCLUDE: 1) ACCESS/BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES; 2) ACCESS/PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES; 3) COMMUNITY SAFETY; 4) FOOD SECURITY; 5) HOUSING; AND 6) WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT.HEALTH NEEDS SELECTED HEALTHY LIFESTYLES/OBESITY. HEALTHY LIFESTYLES/OBESITY WAS CHOSEN AS ONE OF THE TWO HEALTH NEED PRIORITIES DUE TO THE MANY CHRONIC DISEASES AND HEALTH ISSUES THAT ARE RELATED TO POOR NUTRITION AND PHYSICAL INACTIVITY. MOREOVER, THE CHC ALSO IDENTIFIED HEALTHY LIFESTYLES AND OBESITY DUE TO THE LARGE IMPACT THIS ISSUE HAS ON QUALITY OF LIFE AND OVERALL HEALTH OUTCOMES IN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S PSA.BEHAVIORAL HEALTH. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH WAS SELECTED AS THE SECOND HEALTH PRIORITY. THIS HEALTH PRIORITY INCLUDES MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE/ALCOHOL USE. WITHIN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S PSA, THE RATE OF MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES AND SUBSTANCE USE ARE CONTINUING TO INCREASE OVER TIME AND ARE HIGH WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER COMMUNITIES IN ILLINOIS. DATA AND HOSPITALIZATION RATES INDICATE THAT THERE IS A GREAT NEED FOR EXPANSION OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES, INCLUDING ACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICES, TREATMENT, HOUSING AND PROGRAMMING.

MANY EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS RAISE AWARENESS OF HEART DISEASE, STROKE, MENTAL ILLNESS/DEPRESSION, DIABETES, KIDNEY DISEASE, VARIOUS TYPES OF CANCER, INCONTINENCE, DIGESTIVE HEALTH, AND PROPER SELECTION AND INSTALLATION OF INFANT AND CHILD CAR SEATS, INCLUDING SAFETY CHECKS, AND FOOD LABEL READING TO IMPROVE NUTRITION. SOME CLASSES ARE OFFERED IN LANGUAGES OTHER THAN ENGLISH TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION BY NON-ENGLISH-SPEAKING COMMUNITY MEMBERS. IN ADDITION TO EDUCATION, MANY CLASSES INCLUDE HEALTH SCREENINGS TO DETERMINE AT-RISK INDIVIDUALS, INCLUDING REFERRALS TO PHYSICIANS FOR FOLLOW-UP CARE FOR THOSE WITH POOR TEST RESULTS. CPR TRAINING IS ALSO OFFERED TO THE COMMUNITY TO TEACH INDIVIDUALS TO RESPOND QUICKLY TO FAMILY MEMBERS AND OTHERS EXPERIENCING A HEALTH CRISIS. THERE ARE MANY ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS PROVIDED BY THE ANSHN FOR WHICH COSTS ARE SUBSIDIZED BUT THAT ARE ALREADY DESCRIBED ELSEWHERE IN THIS DOCUMENT, SUCH AS: THE SPECIAL NEEDS DENTISTRY PROGRAMS FOR LOW-INCOME, HOMELESS AND/OR DISABLED INDIVIDUALS; THE MEDICATION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM FOR LOW-INCOME UNINSURED; MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID TO ENABLE COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO IDENTIFY SIGNS OF MENTAL ILLNESS IN OTHERS; SCHOOL-BASED HEALTH CENTERS; THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING PROGRAM PROVIDING ACCESS TO PSYCHIATRISTS; THE PEDIATRIC DEVELOPMENT CENTER FOR DEVELOPMENTALLY CHALLENGED CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS; AND THE MEDICALLY INTEGRATED CRISIS COMMUNITY SUPPORT PROGRAM PROVIDING THERAPEUTIC COMMUNITY-BASED CONTACTS TO ACUTELY-ILL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PATIENTS.
PART I, LINE 7H:	ANSHN CONDUCTS NUMEROUS RESEARCH ACTIVITIES FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF MEDICAL AND HEALTH CARE SERVICES. HOWEVER, THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF SUCH RESEARCH ACTIVITIES IS NOT READILY DETERMINABLE AND NO AMOUNT IS BEING REPORTED FOR PURPOSES OF THE 2019 FORM 990, SCHEDULE H.
PART III, LINE 4:	FOR 2019, FOR ANSHN, THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS COVERED 23.59% OF NET PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE STATED AT NET REALIZABLE VALUE. ANSHN EVALUATES THE COLLECTABILITY OF ITS ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE BASED ON THE LENGTH OF TIME THE RECEIVABLE IS OUTSTANDING, PAYER CLASS, HISTORICAL COLLECTION EXPERIENCE, AND TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE INSURANCE PROGRAMS. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE CHARGED TO THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS WHEN THEY ARE DEEMED UNCOLLECTIBLE.THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED IN DETERMINING THE AMOUNTS REPORTED ON LINES 2 AND 3 IS BASED ON THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES. THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF BAD DEBT WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS (CMS 2252-96 WORKSHEET C, PART 1, PPS INPATIENT RATIOS) TO THE ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT PROVISION PER GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, LESS ANY PATIENT OR THIRD PARTY PAYOR PAYMENTS RECEIVED.ADVOCATE MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO IDENTIFY THOSE PATIENTS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BY STRICTLY ADHERING TO ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. WE BELIEVE THAT ADVOCATE HAS A POPULATION OF PATIENTS WHO ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED BUT WHO DO NOT COMPLETE THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION. THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) WHICH COULD BE REASONABLY ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO WOULD LIKELY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, IF SUFFICIENT INFORMATION HAD BEEN AVAILABLE TO MAKE A DETERMINATION OF THEIR ELIGIBILITY, WAS BASED UPON SELF PAY PATIENT ACCOUNTS WHICH HAD AMOUNTS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBTS. OUR METHOD WAS TO BEGIN WITH THE SELF-PAY PORTION OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE PROVISION. THE SELF PAY PORTION EXCLUDES THOSE PATIENTS WHO HAD FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATIONS PENDING AT THE TIME OF SERVICE. THIS COST WAS THEN REDUCED BY CHARGES IDENTIFIED AS TRUE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, INCLUDING COPAYS FOR PATIENTS WHO QUALIFIED FOR LESS THAN 100% FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS THEN APPLIED TO THE REMAINING CHARGES, TO DETERMINE THE VALUE (AT COST) OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS THAT DID NOT COMPLETE FINANCIAL COUNSELING AND WERE ASSIGNED TO BAD DEBT. WE BELIEVE THIS PROCESS IS A REASONABLE BASIS FOR OUR ESTIMATE. AS WE ARE ONLY CONSIDERING SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT FOR THIS ESTIMATE, THIS ESTIMATE DOES NOT INCLUDE THE IMMEDIATE 25% DISCOUNT TO CHARGES WHICH IS APPLIED TO ALL SELF-PAY PATIENTS. IT ALSO DOES NOT INCLUDE ACCOUNT BALANCES OR CO-PAYS OF NON-SELF PAY ACCOUNTS WHICH ARE WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT WHEN THE PATIENT HAS NO OTHER FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO PAY THESE AMOUNTS AND THE PATIENT DOES NOT APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.BAD DEBT AMOUNTS HAVE BEEN EXCLUDED FROM OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT AMOUNTS REPORTED THROUGHOUT SCHEDULE H.
PART III, LINE 8:	IN 2019, NO SHORTFALL WAS REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 7. FOR ADVOCATE NORTHSIDE'S OPERATIONS, THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF MEDICARE WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS (CMS 2252-96 WORKSHEET C, PART 1, PPS INPATIENT RATIOS) AND FOR NON-HOSPITAL OPERATIONS THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO CALCULATED ON WORKSHEET 2 RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES TO THE ORGANIZATION'S MEDICARE, LESS ANY PATIENT OR THIRD PARTY PAYOR PAYMENTS AND/OR CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED THAT WERE DESIGNATED FOR THE PAYMENT OF MEDICARE PATIENT BILLS.
PART III, LINE 9B:	ANSHN MAINTAINS BOTH WRITTEN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND BAD DEBT/COLLECTION POLICIES. THE BAD DEBT/COLLECTION POLICY DOES NOT APPLY TO THOSE PATIENTS KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE; THEREFORE SUCH PATIENTS ARE NOT SUBJECT TO COLLECTION PRACTICES.
PART VI, LINE 3:	ANSHN ASSISTS PATIENTS WITH ENROLLMENT IN GOVERNMENT-SUPPORTED PROGRAMS FOR WHICH THEY ARE ELIGIBLE AND IN SECURING REIMBURSEMENT FROM AVAILABLE THIRD-PARTY RESOURCES. FINANCIAL COUNSELING IS PROVIDED TO HELP PATIENTS IDENTIFY AND OBTAIN PAYMENT FROM THIRD PARTIES, INCLUDING ILLINOIS MEDICAID, ILLINOIS CRIME VICTIMS FUND, ETC., AS WELL AS TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY UNDER ANSHN'S HOSPITAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. ADVOCATE UTILIZES A FINANCIAL SCREENING SOFTWARE PROGRAM TO HELP IDENTIFY PUBLIC ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS FOR WHICH THE PATIENT MAY BE ELIGIBLE OR ADVOCATE'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT THE TIME OF REGISTRATION OR AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE THEREAFTER. IN ADDITION, HEALTHADVISOR, ADVOCATE'S EDUCATION REGISTRATION AND PHYSICIAN REFERRAL TELEPHONE CENTER, SERVES AS A COMMUNITY RESOURCE PROVIDING REFERRALS TO GOVERNMENT-FUNDED AND OTHER PROGRAMS VIA TELEPHONE FROM 7 A.M. TO 7 P.M., MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AND SATURDAYS 9 A.M. TO 2 P.M. ANSHN ASSISTS PATIENTS WITH APPLYING FOR ADVOCATE'S OWN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE SERVICES, IF PATIENTS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR GOVERNMENT-SUPPORTED PROGRAMS. ANSHN COMMUNICATES THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN THE APPLICABLE LANGUAGES OF THE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY. MEANS OF COMMUNICATION INCLUDE:1. THE HEALTH CARE CONSENT THAT IS SIGNED UPON REGISTRATION FOR HOSPITAL SERVICES INCLUDES A STATEMENT THAT FINANCIAL COUNSELING, INCLUDING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE CONSIDERATION, IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.2. SIGNS ARE CLEARLY AND CONSPICUOUSLY POSTED IN LOCATIONS THAT ARE VISIBLE TO THE PUBLIC, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO HOSPITAL PATIENT ACCESS, REGISTRATION, EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, CASHIER, AND BUSINESS OFFICE LOCATIONS.3. BROCHURES ARE PLACED IN HOSPITAL PATIENT ACCESS, REGISTRATION, EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, CASHIER, AND BUSINESS OFFICE LOCATIONS, AND WILL INCLUDE GUIDANCE ON HOW A PATIENT MAY APPLY FOR MEDICARE, MEDICAID, ALL KIDS, FAMILY CARE ETC., AND THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. A HOSPITAL CONTACT AND TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS INCLUDED.4. A HANDOUT SUMMARIZING ADVOCATE'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION IS GIVEN TO UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO RECEIVE MEDICALLY NECESSARY HOSPITAL SERVICES AT THE EARLIEST PRACTICAL TIME OF SERVICE.5. ADVOCATE'S WEBSITE POSTS NOTICE IN A PROMINENT PLACE THAT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE, WITH AN EXPLANATION OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION PROCESS, AND ENABLE PRINTING OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION.6. HOSPITAL BILLS TO UNINSURED PATIENTS INCLUDE A REQUEST THAT THE PATIENT INFORM THE HOSPITAL OF ANY AVAILABLE HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE, AND INCLUDE A SUMMARY OF ADVOCATE'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION, AND A TELEPHONE NUMBER TO REQUEST FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.
PART VI, LINE 4:	DESCRIPTION OF THE COMMUNITY/POPULATION. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE 2017-2019 CHNA, ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC DEFINES THE "COMMUNITY" AS ITS PSA. THE MEDICAL CENTER'S PSA CONSISTS OF 21 COMMUNITIES IN COOK COUNTY INCLUDING FORT DEARBORN (60610), NORTH CENTER (60613), LINCOLN PARK (60614), AVONDALE/NORTH CENTER (60618), WICKER PARK (60622), RAVENSWOOD (60625), ROGERS PARK (60626), JEFFERSON PARK (60630), DUNNING (60634), BELMONT CRAGIN (60639), UPTOWN (60640), IRVING PARK/PORTAGE PARK (60641), WICKER PARK (60642), AVALON PARK/NORTH (60645), LOGAN SQUARE (60647), DIVISION STREET (60651), LAKEVIEW (60657), WEST RIDGE (60659), ROGERS PARK (60660), OLD TOWN/NEAR NORTH SIDE (60610) AND ELMWOOD (60707 AND 60635). THE TOTAL POPULATION FOR THE PSA IS 1,186,360. THE POPULATION SLIGHTLY DECREASED BY 0.05 PERCENT FROM 2010 TO 2019. SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH (SDOH). ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC'S ASSESSMENT PROCESS UTILIZED THE CONDUENT HEALTHY COMMUNITIES INSTITUTE'S (HCI) SOCIONEEDS INDEX IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND THE SOCIAL CONTEXT THAT EXISTS IN THE DEFINED COMMUNITY THAT DEEPLY INFLUENCES HEALTH. THE SOCIONEEDS INDEX IS A CONDUENT HCI INDICATOR THAT IS A MEASURE OF SOCIOECONOMIC NEED, CORRELATED WITH POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES. THE INDEX IS CALCULATED FROM SIX INDICATORS, ONE EACH FROM THE FOLLOWING AREAS: POVERTY, INCOME, UNEMPLOYMENT, OCCUPATION, EDUCATION AND LANGUAGE. THE INDICATORS ARE WEIGHTED TO MAXIMIZE THE CORRELATION OF THE INDEX WITH PREMATURE DEATH RATES AND PREVENTABLE HOSPITALIZATION RATES. ALL ZIP CODES, COUNTIES, AND COUNTY EQUIVALENTS IN THE U.S. ARE GIVEN AN INDEX VALUE FROM 0 (LOW NEED) TO 100 (HIGH NEED). TO HELP IDENTIFY THE AREAS OF HIGHEST NEED WITHIN A DEFINED GEOGRAPHIC AREA, THE SELECTED ZIP CODES ARE RANKED FROM ONE (LOW NEED) TO FIVE (HIGH NEED) BASED ON THEIR INDEX VALUE. THESE VALUES ARE SORTED FROM LOW TO HIGH AND DIVIDED INTO FIVE RANKS. THESE RANKS ARE THEN USED TO COLOR THE ZIP CODES WITH THE HIGHEST SOCIONEEDS INDEXES WITH THE DARKER COLORS. THE MEDICAL CENTER HAS SEVERAL COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE PSA THAT HAVE GREATER SOCIOECONOMIC NEEDS COMPARED TO OTHER COMMUNITIES IN THE PSA. BELMONT CRAGIN AND HUMBOLDT PARK ARE THE PSA'S HIGHEST SOCIONEED COMMUNITIES AND ARE RANKED AS FIVES IN THE SOCIONEEDS INDEX MAP. THESE TWO COMMUNITIES EXPERIENCE HIGHER RATES OF CHRONIC DISEASE AND UNEMPLOYMENT, AND HAVE SOME OF THE LOWEST MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOMES IN THE PSA. DEMOGRAPHICSAGE. TWENTY-POINT-SEVEN PERCENT OF THE PSA IS UNDER THE AGE OF 18 YEARS OLD. THE 18-24-YEAR-OLD AGE GROUP IS THE SMALLEST GROUP AT 7.7 PERCENT, THE 25-64-YEAR-OLD AGE GROUP IS THE LARGEST AGE GROUP AT 60.04 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION, AND 11.56 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION IS OVER THE AGE OF 65.

IN 2019, THE PANEL PLACED THREE PATIENTS INTO PERMANENT HOUSING.THE MEDICAL CENTER ALSO PARTNERS WITH ACCLIVUS, A COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION FOCUSED ON PREVENTING AND DECREASING COMMUNITY VIOLENCE. ACCLIVUS PLACES VIOLENCE INTERRUPTERS IN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT (ED) TO ASSESS AND PROVIDE REFERRAL SERVICES TO ANY PATIENT ADMITTED TO THE ED DUE TO TRAUMA/VIOLENCE. THE VIOLENCE INTERRUPTERS ASSESS PATIENTS FOR SOCIAL AND HEALTH NEEDS INCLUDING HOUSING, EDUCATION AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, AND CONNECT THEM TO SERVICES AND PROGRAMS AT THE MEDICAL CENTER AND IN THE COMMUNITY. THE VIOLENCE INTERRUPTERS ALSO FOLLOW UP WITH PATIENTS AFTER THEY ARE DISCHARGED IN THE COMMUNITY TO DECREASE THE RISK OF RE-OCCURRING VIOLENCE. THE MEDICAL CENTER PARTNERS WITH LAKEVIEW FOOD PANTRY TO OPERATE A HOSPITAL-BASED FOOD PANTRY.

PART VI, LINE 6:	ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE (ILLINOIS) AND AURORA HEALTH CARE (WISCONSIN) MERGED IN 2018 TO BECOME ADVOCATE AURORA HEALTH. SOON THEREAFTER WORK BEGAN TO ALIGN THE COMMUNITY STRATEGIES OF BOTH PREDECESSOR ORGANIZATIONS. IN OCTOBER 2019, THE ADVOCATE AURORA BOARD APPROVED A COMMUNITY STRATEGY THAT WOULD SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES AND CONTINUE TO SUPPORT SYSTEM-WIDE PROGRAMS THAT ADDRESS THE HEALTH NEEDS OF PATIENTS, FAMILIES AND THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY ADVOCATE AURORA. GIVEN THAT ADVOCATE AND AURORA HAVE SEPARATE FEIN'S, THE NARRATIVE THAT FOLLOWS PRIMARILY DESCRIBES PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES PERTAINING TO ADVOCATE (AAH ILLINOIS). AS BACKGROUND, ADVOCATE AURORA HEALTH'S ILLINOIS HOSPITALS (ADVOCATE) ARE NOT-FOR-PROFIT AND ARE RELATED TO BOTH THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH IN AMERICA AND THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST. ADVOCATE'S BOARD, LEADERSHIP AND TEAM MEMBERS (STAFF/EMPLOYEES) ARE COMMITTED TO POSITIVELY AFFECTING THE HEALTH STATUS AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF INDIVIDUALS AND POPULATIONS IN COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE ORGANIZATION THROUGH PROGRAMS AND PRACTICES THAT SUPPORT THE ADVOCATE AURORA VISION OF "WE HELP PEOPLE LIVE WELL." ADVOCATE AURORA'S SYSTEM LEADERSHIP HAS HISTORICALLY AND CURRENTLY DIRECTS AND SUPPORTS THE HOSPITALS IN THEIR EFFORTS TO ADDRESS IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. IN 2016, A COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT WAS DEVELOPED BY ADVOCATE, LED BY A SYSTEM EXECUTIVE AND STAFFED WITH PUBLIC/COMMUNITY HEALTH SPECIALISTS, TO EXECUTE COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS, EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT AND COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS WITHIN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY ADVOCATE. PRIOR TO THIS TIME, THE COMMUNITY FACING FUNCTION WAS LED BY A TEAM OF ADVOCATE SYSTEM-LEVEL INDIVIDUALS WHOSE JOB RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDED VARIOUS COMMUNITY ROLES MORE CLOSELY ALIGNED WITH COMMUNITY RELATIONS. DURING THE INITIAL 2011-2013 CHNA CYCLE, ADVOCATE'S SYSTEM LEADERS PROVIDED OVERSIGHT AND SUPPORT TO THE HOSPITALS FOR DEVELOPING THEIR CHNAS AND SUBSEQUENT PROGRAMMING. IN 2016, ADVOCATE'S NEW COMMUNITY HEALTH TEAM CONDUCTED THEIR HOSPITAL COMPREHENSIVE CHNAS (2014-2016) AND POSTED GOVERNANCE-APPROVED CHNA REPORTS AND CHNA IMPLEMENTATION PLANS ON ADVOCATE'S WEBPAGE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT. FOLLOWING THE MERGER OF ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE AND AURORA HEALTH CARE IN 2018 AND BOARD APPROVAL OF THE NEW COMMUNITY STRATEGY IN 2019, ALL ADVOCATE HOSPITALS' COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLANS ARE GUIDED BY THE AAH COMMUNITY STRATEGY. THROUGH THIS STRATEGY, WE WILL BUILD HEALTH EQUITY, ENSURE ACCESS AND IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES IN OUR COMMUNITIES THROUGH EVIDENCE-INFORMED SERVICES AND INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIPS BY ADDRESSING MEDICAL NEEDS AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS. BASED ON NEED AND EFFECT ON HEALTH EQUITY, AS IDENTIFIED IN ADVOCATE AURORA'S 27 HOSPITAL CHNA REPORTS AND IN INDUSTRY LITERATURE, ADVOCATE PRIORITIZED THE FOLLOWING SIX FOCUS AREAS ON WHICH THE INDIVIDUAL HOSPITAL COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLANS ARE BUILT AND SUPPORT, INCLUDING: 1) ACCESS/PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES; 2) ACCESS/ BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES; 3) COMMUNITY SAFETY; 4) WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT; 5) AFFORDABLE HOUSING; AND 6) FOOD SECURITY.ADVOCATE'S BOARD, SYSTEM LEADERSHIP AND TEAM MEMBERS ARE FULLY ENGAGED IN PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES THAT SUPPORT SYSTEM AND SITE EFFORTS IN ACHIEVING MILESTONES IN EACH OF THESE COMMUNITY STRATEGY FOCUS AREAS. EXAMPLES OF AFFILIATED SYSTEM PROGRAMS/SERVICES THAT ALIGN WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY STRATEGY AND SUPPORT EFFORTS TO ADDRESS THESE KEY FOCUS AREAS ARE PROVIDED IN THE FOLLOWING NARRATIVE.1. ACCESS/PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES. THE FIRST OF SIX KEY AREAS TARGETED BY ADVOCATE'S COMMUNITY STRATEGY IS IMPROVING ACCESS/CONNECTING PATIENTS TO PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES. ADVOCATE IS COMMITTED TO UNDERTAKING AND SUPPORTING INITIATIVES THAT ENHANCE ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, INCLUDING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, CARE COORDINATION, LANGUAGE ASSISTANCE, CULTURALLY SENSITIVE PROVISION OF CARE, AND PREVENTION EDUCATION AND WELLNESS SERVICES ACROSS THE LIFESPAN AND WITHIN THE DIVERSE COMMUNITIES ADVOCATE SERVES. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. ADVOCATE OFFERS A VERY GENEROUS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, REQUIRING NO PAYMENTS FROM THE PATIENTS MOST IN NEED, AND PROVIDING DISCOUNTS TO UNINSURED AND INSURED PATIENTS. FROM JANUARY 2019 TO MAY 2019, UNINSURED PATIENTS EARNING UP TO SIX TIMES THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL), AND INSURED PATIENTS EARNING UP TO FOUR TIMES THE FPL WERE ELIGIBLE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR A FULL OR PARTIAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT. AS OF JUNE 2019, PATIENTS EARNING UP TO SIX TIMES THE FPL, AND INSURED PATIENTS EARNING UP TO TWO AND HALF TIMES THE FPL MAY QUALIFY FOR A FULL OR PARTIAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT. ADDITIONALLY, A CATASTROPHIC ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT WAS ADDED FOR UNINSURED AND INSURED PATIENTS WHOSE INCOMES EXCEED THE TRADITIONAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INCOME GUIDELINES AND HAVE OUTSTANDING PATIENT BALANCES OF $25,000 OR MORE FOR A SINGLE DATE OF SERVICE OR SUM OF SEVERAL DATES OF SERVICE. THESE PATIENTS MAY QUALIFY TO RECEIVE A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT THAT REDUCES THEIR OUTSTANDING BALANCE TO 25% OF THEIR NET INCOME. FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS, ADVOCATE WILL PRESUMPTIVELY PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IF THE FINANCIAL STATUS HAS BEEN VERIFIED BY A THIRD PARTY. IN THESE CASES, THE PATIENT IS NOT REQUIRED TO SUBMIT A SEPARATE CHARITY APPLICATION. IF PRESUMPTIVE CRITERIA ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY IS AVAILABLE USING AN INCOME-BASED SCREENING. ADVOCATE EXTENDS ITS INCOME-BASED FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY TO ITS INSURED PATIENTS AS WELL. BOTH UNINSURED AND INSURED REQUESTS ARE GIVEN CONSIDERATION BASED ON THE INDIVIDUAL'S EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES. ADVOCATE CONTINUES TO REVIEW AND REFINE ITS POLICY IN AN ONGOING EFFORT TO ENSURE THAT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE TO THOSE WHO NEED HELP.FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS (FQHCS). ALL ADVOCATE'S HOSPITALS HAVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS OR OTHER COMMUNITY CLINICS WITHIN THEIR SERVICE AREAS FOR PROVIDING CARE FOR MEDICAID AND UNINSURED PATIENTS. ADVOCATE SHERMAN WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE GREATER ELGIN FAMILY CARE CENTER (FQHC), THE VISITING NURSES ASSOCIATION AND AUNT MARTHA'S (FQHC) TO COORDINATE CARE FOR LOW-INCOME PATIENTS IN THE ELGIN AREA. ADVOCATE BROMENN MAINTAINS A COMMUNITY HEALTH CLINIC, IN COLLABORATION WITH OSF ST. JOSEPH'S HOSPITAL, WHEREBY BOTH HOSPITALS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DESIGNATED CLINIC PATIENTS' HOSPITAL CARE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. ADVOCATE BROMENN ALSO PROVIDES SPACE AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SUPPORT TO THE CLINIC. IN ADDITION, ADVOCATE BROMENN, THROUGH AN INFORMAL REFERRAL AGREEMENT DATING BACK TO 2010, COLLABORATES WITH CHESTNUT HEALTH SYSTEMS. CHESTNUT HEALTH SYSTEMS OWNS AND OPERATES A FQHC IN BLOOMINGTON AND PATIENTS ARE SOMETIMES REFERRED TO ADVOCATE BROMENN FOR SERVICES. IN A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE ACCESS TO CARE ORGANIZATION, ADVOCATE CHRIST PROVIDES MAMMOGRAMS TO AREA UNINSURED AND LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE REFERRED BY THE CLINIC TO THE HOSPITAL WHEN THIS SERVICE IS REQUIRED.TO MAINTAIN QUALITY CARE EXCELLENCE AND IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR PEOPLE SEEKING CARE FROM ADVOCATE, WORKING TO FIND MEDICAL HOMES AND TO REDUCE EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS AND HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS IS ESSENTIAL. ADVOCATE HAS NUMEROUS PROGRAMS FOCUSED ON MANAGING THE PATIENT EXPERIENCE THROUGH THE CONTINUUM OF CAREIN INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SETTINGS, AND IN THE HOME. MEDICAID AND MEDICARE. ADVOCATE ACTIVELY WORKS TO IMPROVE THE PROVISION OF SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES WHO ARE COVERED BY MEDICARE AND MEDICAID AND THAT SEEK SERVICES AT ANY OF ADVOCATE'S 400 SITES OF CARE. ADVOCATE COLLABORATES WITH VARIOUS COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS (CBOS) AND FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS (FQHCS) IN INNOVATIVE WAYS TO ESTABLISH PRIMARY CARE RELATIONSHIPS FOR MEDICAID AND UNINSURED PATIENTS. ADVOCATE CARE ORGANIZATION (ACO). ADVOCATE COLLABORATES WITH MERIDIAN FAMILY HEALTH PLAN (FHP) OF ILLINOIS AS PART OF AN INTEGRATED CARE MODEL FOR PEOPLE ON MEDICAID.

FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS CONTINUED:	COMMUNITY HEALTH STRATEGY AND EXAMPLES OF PROGRAMS AND SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS A MEDICAL CENTER WITHIN THE ADVOCATE AURORA HEALTH SYSTEM, ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC'S IMPLEMENTATION PLANS AND STRATEGIES ALIGN WITH THE AAH SYSTEM STRATEGY. THROUGH THIS COMMUNITY STRATEGY, THE MEDICAL CENTER WILL BUILD HEALTH EQUITY, ENSURE ACCESS AND IMPROVE HEALTH OUCOMES IN ITS COMMUNITY THROUGH EVIDENCE-INFORMED SERVICES AND INNOVATIVE PARTHERSHIPS BY ADDRESSING MEDICAL NEEDS AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS. BASED ON NEED AND EFFECT ON HEALTH EQUITY AS IDENTIFIED IN THE AAH HOSPITALS CHNA REPORTS AND ON INDUSTRY LITERATURE, THE FOLLOWING SIX FOCUS AREAS HAVE BEEN PRIORITIZED, FROM WHICH EACH INDIVIDUAL AAH HOSPITALS' COMMUNITY IMPLEMENATION PLAN IS BUILT: 1) ACCESS TO PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES; 2) ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES; 3) WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT; 4) COMMUNITY SAFETY; 5) AFFORDABLE HOUSING; AND 6) WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT. EACH STRATEG FOCUS AREA AND EXAMPLES OF ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC PROGRAMS ADDRESSING IT ARE PROVIDED BELOW. 1. ACCESS/PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES. ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC IS COMMITTED TO UNDERTAKING AND SUPPORTING INITIATIVES THAT ENHANCE ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, INCLUDING NOT ONLY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AS INDICATED EARLIER FOR ITEM 4.A, BUT ALSO CARE COORDINATION, LANGUAGE ASSISTANCE, CULTURALLY SENSITIVE PROVISION OF CARE, AND PREVENTION EDUCATION AND WELLNESS SERVICES ACROSS THE LIFESPAN AND WITHIN THE DIVERSE COMMUNITIES THE MEDICAL CENTER SERVES. SOME OF EXAMPLES OF SUCH PROGRAMS PROVIDED BY THE MEDICAL CENTER INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING. TRANSITION SUPPORT PROGRAM. THE TRANSITION SUPPORT PROGRAM (TSP) IS A NAVIGATION SERVICE THAT ASSISTS WITH THE COORDINATION OF FOLLOW-UP CARE FOR PATIENTS WITH CHALLENGES NAVIGATING HEALTH SERVICES. PRIOR TO THE PROJECT, ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC'S COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCIL IDENTIFIED CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT AS A KEY HEALTH DISPARITY FOR ITS PRIMARY SERVICE AREA. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT CONCLUDED THAT PATIENTS IN THE MEDICAL CENTER'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA WITH CHRONIC ILLNESSES EXPERIENCE SIGNIFICANT BARRIERS NAVIGATING THE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM, INCLUDING BARRIERS RELATED TO REFERRALS, APPOINTMENTS, INSURANCE, TRANSPORTATION, LANGUAGE AND MEDICATION ACCESS. BY PROVIDING STRENGTH-BUILDING AND CULTURALLY- AND LINGUISTICALLY COMPETENT NAVIGATION OF A COMPLEX HEALTH CARE SYSTEM, THE TSP AIMS TO REDUCE READMISSIONS AND EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS AND IMPROVE CARE TRANSITIONS ACROSS THE CONTINUUM FOR PATIENTS AND FAMILIES, REGARDLESS OF INSURANCE OR CIRCUMSTANCE. THE PROGRAM, SERVED 2,616 PATIENTS IN 2019, INCLUDING PROVIDING REFERRALS. SPECIAL NEEDS DENTISTRY PROGRAM. THE GOAL OF THE SPECIAL NEEDS DENTISTRY PROGRAM AT ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC IS TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO ORAL HEALTH FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES ORAL HEALTH CARE TO PATIENTS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES INCLUDING DOWN SYNDROME, CEREBRAL PALSY AND SEIZURE DISORDER. SPECIAL NEEDS PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES MAY OVERLOOK ESSENTIAL DENTAL CARE IN THE FACE OF MORE URGENT HEALTH NEEDS. MANY DENTISTS LACK THE TRAINING, RESOURCES AND/OR SUPPLIES NEEDED TO EFFECTIVELY SERVE SPECIAL NEEDS PATIENTS AND, AS A RESULT, MANY PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES LACK ACCESS TO EVEN BASIC ROUTINE DENTAL CARE. PATIENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS ALSO MAY NOT UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR DENTAL CARE OR COOPERATE WHILE A DENTIST TRIES TO EXAMINE THE MOUTH AND TEETH. IN ADDITION, TO TREATING PATIENTS IN THE DENTAL CENTER, THE SPECIAL NEEDS DENTISTRY PROGRAM PROVIDES OUTREACH SCREENING SERVICES AT SITES THAT SUPPORT PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES.

ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC OFFERS A VERY GENEROUS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, REQUIRING NO PAYMENTS FROM THE PATIENTS MOST IN NEED, AND PROVIDING DISCOUNTS TO UNINSURED AND INSURED PATIENTS. FROM JANUARY 2019 TO MAY 2019, UNINSURED PATIENTS EARNING UP TO SIX TIMES THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL), AND INSURED PATIENTS EARNING UP TO FOUR TIMES THE FPL WERE ELIGIBLE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR A FULL OR PARTIAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT. AS OF JUNE 2019, PATIENTS EARNING UP TO SIX TIMES THE FPL, AND INSURED PATIENTS EARNING UP TO TWO AND HALF TIMES THE FPL MAY QUALIFY FOR A FULL OR PARTIAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT. ADDITIONALLY, A CATASTROPHIC ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT WAS ADDED FOR UNINSURED AND INSURED PATIENTS WHOSE INCOMES EXCEED THE TRADITIONAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INCOME GUIDELINES AND HAVE OUTSTANDING PATIENT BALANCES OF $25,000 OR MORE FOR A SINGLE DATE OF SERVICE OR SUM OF SEVERAL DATES OF SERVICE. THESE PATIENTS MAY QUALIFY TO RECEIVE A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT THAT REDUCES THEIR OUTSTANDING BALANCE TO 25% OF THEIR NET INCOME. FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS, ADVOCATE WILL PRESUMPTIVELY PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IF THE FINANCIAL STATUS HAS BEEN VERIFIED BY A THIRD PARTY. IN THESE CASES, THE PATIENT IS NOT REQUIRED TO SUBMIT A SEPARATE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION. IF PRESUMPTIVE CRITERIA ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY IS AVAILABLE USING AN INCOME-BASED SCREENING.

BOTH UNINSURED AND INSURED REQUESTS ARE GIVEN CONSIDERATION BASED ON THE INDIVIDUAL'S EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES.
