Form and Line Reference Explanation
SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: INPUT FROM REPRESENTATIVES OF THE COMMUNITY DURING THE FY18 CHNA PROCESS THE PROJECT TEAM DEVELOPED A BRIEF SURVEY TOOL THAT ENGAGED COMMUNITY MEMBERS OF THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION RELATED TO THEIR HEALTH. THIS PROCESS RESULTED IN 4,755 SURVEY RESULTS COVERING EVERY ZIP CODE IN BALTIMORE CITY AND SOME OVERLAPPING ZIP CODES IN BALTIMORE COUNTY.IN ADDITION, THE HOSPITALS JOINED TOGETHER WITH THE BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT "BCHD" TO ALIGN THE CHNA PROCESS WITH BCHD'S ACCREDITATION PROCESS.EACH HOSPITAL REACHED OUT TO THEIR RESPECTIVE COMMUNITIES FOR ORGANIZATIONAL SPONSORS AND FOCUS GROUP PARTICIPANTS. THE MAJORITY OF THESE FOCUS GROUPS INVOLVED PARTICIPANTS FROM ACROSS THE CITY AND WERE CO-FACILITATED BY REPRESENTATIVES FROM MULTIPLE HOSPITALS WHICH RESULTED IN 10 SHARED FOCUS GROUPS.THE POPULATIONS THAT MADE UP THESE FOCUS GROUPS AND THE DATES THE MEETINGS WERE HELD ARE LISTED BELOW:-LGBTQ FOCUS GROUP - MEETING HELD NOVEMBER 13, 2017-DISABILITIES (PHYSICAL) FOCUS GROUP - MEETING HELD OCTOBER 27, 2017-OLDER ADULTS FOCUS GROUP 1 - MEETING HELD NOVEMBER 9, 2017-OLDER ADULTS FOCUS GROUP 2 - MEETING HELD NOVEMBER 9, 2017-SINGLE PARENTS FOCUS GROUP - MEETING HELD OCTOBER 31, 2017-SPANISH SPEAKING FOCUS GROUP - MEETING HELD NOVEMBER 9, 2017-CURRENTLY HOMELESS FOCUS GROUP - MEETING HELD DECEMBER 4, 2017-HOMELESS MEN IN TEMPORARY HOUSING FOCUS GROUP - MEETING HELD NOVEMBER 22, 2017-CANCER FOCUS GROUP - NOVEMBER 10, 2017-POPULATION HEALTH FOCUS GROUP - NOVEMBER 16, 2017 THE BELOW ORGANIZATIONS PROVIDED INPUT ON THE FY2018 CHNA:-AMERICAN DIABETES ASSOCIATION, MARYLAND AREA-AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION, MID-ATLANTIC AFFILIATE-BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT-BALTIMORE MEDICAL SYSTEM, INC.-CHANA-CHASE BRAXTON HEALTH CARE-COMPREHENSIVE HOUSING ASSISTANCE, INC.-DISABILITY RIGHTS MARYLAND-GREEN AND HEALTHY HOMES INITIATIVE-JEWISH COMMUNITY SERVICES-JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY-MEDSTAR CENTER FOR SUCCESSFUL AGING-MEDSTAR TOTAL ELDER CARE-PROMISE HEIGHTS-SINAI HOSPITAL VOCATIONAL SERVICES PROGRAM-UNIVERSITY OF MARYLANDTHE HOSPITALS ALSO COLLABORATED IN COMPILING INVITE LISTS FOR TWO MEETINGS OF LEADERS OF ORGANIZATIONS WHO ARE MAJOR PARTNERS IN HEALTH CARE DELIVERY. ALL HOSPITALS CO-FACILITATED THESE MEETINGS, BRINGING TOGETHER 25 LEADERS TO SHARE THEIR INPUT ABOUT COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. A LIST OF THESE KEY STAKEHOLDERS CAN BE FOUND IN THE CURRENT CHNA. RECOGNIZING THE POTENTIAL BENEFITS FROM ALIGNING CHNA PROCESSES, SINAI AGREED TO SHIFT THE CHNA SCHEDULE BY ONE YEAR AND COLLABORATE WITH OTHER BALTIMORE CITY BASED HOSPITALS IN EXECUTING MAJOR ASPECTS OF THE CHNA PROCESS. A STEERING COMMITTEE GOVERNED COLLABORATION, WHICH WAS LARGELY EXECUTED BY A PROJECT TEAM. THE ACTIVITIES WITHIN THIS COLLABORATIVE INCLUDED:1. PROCESS PLANNING:A. PUBLIC SURVEY TOOL - THE HOSPITALS COLLABORATED TO DEVELOP A BRIEF SURVEY TOOL THAT WOULD ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS OF THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION RELATED TO THEIR HEALTH. AS A COLLABORATIVE, THE FOCUS OF THE SURVEY QUESTIONS WERE ON THE RESPONDENTS' OPINIONS ABOUT COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS, RATHER THAN THE RESPONDENTS' PERSONAL EXPERIENCES OF HAVING THOSE NEEDS.B. COLLABORATION - IN IDENTIFYING PUBLIC HEALTH INFORMATIONAL NEEDS FROM BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT THE HOSPITALS JOINED TOGETHER WITH THE BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT TO ALIGN THE CHNA PROCESS WITH BCHD'S ACCREDITATION PROCESS.C. MUTUAL TECHNICAL SUPPORT ON BEST PRACTICES FOR HOSPITAL-SPECIFIC CHNA PROCESSES - THE PROJECT TEAM AND THE OVERARCHING STEERING COMMITTEE MET ON A REGULAR BASIS AND ADVISED EACH OTHER ON BEST PRACTICES IN IMPLEMENTING CHNAS.D. PRIORITIZATION AND IMPLEMENTATION - COMMUNITY HEALTH LEADERS DEVELOPED INVENTORIES OF CURRENT AND POTENTIAL PROGRAMMING, CONVENED EXPERTS AND ACHIEVED AGREEMENT ON DIRECTION FOR A SHARED STRATEGY. 2. DATA COLLECTION:A. DISTRIBUTION OF SURVEY TOOL - ALL HOSPITALS WITHIN THE COLLABORATIVE UTILIZED INDIVIDUALIZED METHODS FOR REACHING COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO RESPOND TO PUBLIC SURVEYS.B. FACILITATION OF AFFINITY-BASED FOCUS GROUPS - THE HOSPITALS REACHED OUT TO THEIR RESPECTIVE COMMUNITIES FOR ORGANIZATIONAL SPONSORS AND FOCUS GROUP PARTICIPANTS. AS A RESULT, THE HOSPITALS FORMED 10 SHARED FOCUS GROUPS, INCLUDING MANY POPULATIONS NOT PREVIOUSLY SURVEYED.C. FACILITATION OF STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS - THE HOSPITALS COLLABORATED IN COMPILING INVITE LISTS FOR TWO MEETINGS OF LEADERS OF ORGANIZATIONS WHO ARE MAJOR PARTNERS IN HEALTH CARE DELIVERY. ALL THE HOSPITALS CO-FACILITATED THESE MEETINGS, BRINGING TOGETHER 25 LEADERS TO SHARE THEIR INPUT ABOUT COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS.3. DATA COLLECTION PROCESS:A. PUBLIC SURVEY TOOL - UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND MEDICAL SYSTEM HOSTED AN INTERNET-BASED TOOL ON SURVEYMONKEY TO ACCOMMODATE THE SURVEY AND RECORD ALL THE RESPONSES. LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH TEAM MEMBERS UTILIZED A VARIETY OF METHODS TO COLLECT RESPONSES FOR THE SURVEY, I.E. DISTRIBUTION AT COMMUNITY EVENTS; DISTRIBUTION TO INDIVIDUAL CLIENTS AND PATIENTS OF LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH PROGRAMS; DISSEMINATION TO EMAILS LISTS OF PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS; DISSEMINATION TO LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH EMPLOYEE EMAIL LISTS AND COLLECTION OF SURVEYS FROM RELIGIOUS CONGREGATIONS.B. FOCUS GROUPS - THE COLLABORATIVE IDENTIFIED NINE GROUPS AND WORKED WITH PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS TO RECRUIT PARTICIPANTS FOR THE FOCUS GROUPS. IN THE FOCUS GROUPS THE CONVERSATIONS WERE GUIDED BASED ON THE SAME QUESTIONS THAT WERE ASKED IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE SURVEY FOCUSING ON KEY HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL/SOCIAL CONCERNS IN THE COMMUNITY, PROBLEMS WITH ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, AND GENERAL IDEAS THAT THE PARTICIPANTS HAD FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT. THE PRIORITY CONCERNS FOR EACH AREA OF INQUIRY WERE SUMMARIZED BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF TIME SPENT ON TOPICS AND THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE EXPRESSING OPINIONS ABOUT THE ISSUES.C. STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS - TWO MEETINGS WERE HELD, WHICH ATTRACTED A TOTAL OF 25 LEADERS FROM PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS. LIKE THE FOCUS GROUPS, THE QUESTIONS FROM THE PUBLIC SURVEY WERE USED TO GUIDE DISCUSSIONS AMONG THE STAKEHOLDERS. LEADERS FROM THE PARTICIPATING HOSPITALS LED BREAKOUT GROUPS DURING THE STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS AND FACILITATED DIALOGUES WITH SUPPORT OF NOTE TAKERS. THE TOP CONCERNS WERE DETERMINED BASED ON THE MOST PROMINENT THEMES IN THE DISCUSSIONS. IN ADDITION, ONE-ON-ONE INTERVIEWS WERE ALSO CONDUCTED WITH STAKEHOLDERS FROM THE THREE LBH HOSPITALS' SERVICE AREAS.
SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6A: SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. IS INCLUDED IN THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) OF LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH, INC.

AGNES HOSPITAL.
SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7D: COPIES OF THE CHNA WERE DISTRIBUTED TO KEY COMMUNITY PARTNERS.SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. HTTP://WWW.LIFEBRIDGEHEALTH.ORG/UPLOADS/PUBLIC/DOCUMENTS/COMMUNITY%20HEALTH/SINAI/SINAI.PDF
SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: THE BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE TEAM IN LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH'S POPULATION HEALTH DEPARTMENT USED THE DATA FROM ALL 4,755 PUBLIC SURVEYS COLLECTED TO PROVIDE SUMMARIES OF INFORMATION FROM THE RESPONDENTS OVERALL. THESE SUMMARIES IDENTIFIED THE TOP FIVE RESPONSES TO EACH OF THE THREE MAJOR QUESTIONS IN THE SURVEY.THE COMPILED PRIORITIZED NEEDS WERE THEN PRESENTED TO LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH'S COMMUNITY MISSION COMMITTEE, AN OFFICIAL COMMITTEE THAT INCLUDES BOARD MEMBERS, EXECUTIVES FROM EACH HOSPITAL, STAFF WITH COMMUNITY-RELATED RESPONSIBILITIES, AND MEMBERS-AT-LARGE FROM PARTNERING COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS. THIS GROUP SELECTED 1-3 PRIORITIES PER SURVEY QUESTION FOR EACH HOSPITAL.THE FOLLOWING PRIORITIZED NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED FOR THE SINAI HOSPITAL COMMUNITY:HEALTH CONCERNS:1. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH - MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE: A. IMPLEMENT SBIRT IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND SINAI COMMUNITY CARE, SINAI'S OUTPATIENT PRIMARY CARE CLINIC. THROUGH A STATEWIDE GRANT, SINAI HOSPITAL WILL BE IMPLEMENTING "SCREENING-BRIEF INTERVENTION-REFERRAL TO TREATMENT" SBIRT PROTOCOL IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND SINAI COMMUNITY CARE. THIS PROTOCOL IS DESIGNATED TO WORK WITH PATIENTS WHO MAY HAVE SUBSTANCE ABUSE PROBLEMS AND PROVIDE SOME LEVEL OF SUPPORT AND NAVIGATION FOR THEM BEFORE THEY LEAVE THE FACILITY. B. PARTNER, IMPLEMENT AND ADVOCATE FOR A CITYWIDE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH/HOUSING STRATEGY. IN COLLABORATION WITH OTHER CITY HOSPITALS, SINAI DETERMINED THAT A CONSISTENT AND TROUBLING PROBLEM IS THE LACK OF HOUSING OPTIONS FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE DISCHARGED FROM THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND INPATIENT SETTING. THE HOSPITALS BROUGHT TOGETHER A CITYWIDE MEETING OF LEADERS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS IN THE FIELD OF HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS AND DECIDED THAT A PERMANENT SUPPORTIVE HOUSING MODEL WOULD BE AN EFFECTIVE AND SUSTAINABLE INITIATIVE FOR PATIENTS ACROSS THE CITY. THE COLLABORATIVE PLANS TO WORK TOGETHER OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS TO CREATE A STRATEGY AND FUNDING SOURCE FOR THIS TYPE OF PROGRAM, AND BEGIN IMPLEMENTATION.2. CHRONIC DISEASE DIABETES/HIGH BLOOD SUGAR, OVERWEIGHT/OBESITY AND HEART DISEASE/HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE: A. IMPLEMENT DIABETES WELLNESS SERIES. TO COMPLEMENT THE ARRAY OF DISEASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS AND SERVICES THAT SINAI OFFERS, THE HOSPITAL RECOGNIZED THE NEED TO BEGIN ASSISTING PEOPLE WHO ARE AT RISK OF DEVELOPING CHRONIC DISEASES, IN ADDITION TO THOSE WHO LIVE WITH CHRONIC DISEASE ALREADY. A FOUR-PART WELLNESS SERIES TARGETED TOWARDS PRE-DIABETIC AND DIABETIC PEOPLE WILL BE IMPLEMENTED. THE CURRICULUM FOCUSES ON HEALTHY EATING, EXERCISE AND STRESS REDUCTION. B. CONTINUE TO IMPLEMENT CHANGING HEARTS PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM IS FOCUSED ON RISK IDENTIFICATION AND PREVENTION OF HEART DISEASE WITHIN THE PRIMARY SERVICE AREA. STAFF PROVIDES LIVE HEART RISK ASSESSMENTS IN THE COMMUNITY TO IDENTIFY PRE-HYPERTENSIVE PATIENTS (ASSESSMENT INCLUDES CHOLESTEROL, GLUCOSE, BLOOD PRESSURE AND BODY COMPOSITION ANALYSIS). BASED ON THE ASSESSMENT, HEALTH EDUCATION COUNSELING IS PROVIDED BY A REGISTERED NURSE. PATIENTS RECEIVE ON-GOING SUPPORT FROM STAFF TO FACILITATE LIFESTYLE CHANGES. THIS INCLUDES FOLLOW-UP CALLS AND/OR HOME VISITS BY A CHW WITH A FOCUS ON INDIVIDUALIZED CARE PLANS DEVELOPED WITH PATIENTS, LIFESTYLE CLASSES TO MAINTAIN A LONG-TERM CHANGE, AND EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL AND RESOURCES TO IMPROVE HEALTH.ENVIRONMENTAL/SOCIAL PROBLEMS1. JOB OPPORTUNITIES: A. IMPLEMENT WORKFORCE READINESS TRAININGS FOR EXISTING POPULATION HEALTH PROGRAMS' CLIENTS. SINAI'S WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM, VSP, PROVIDES WORKFORCE READINESS TRAINING FOR PEOPLE THROUGHOUT BALTIMORE CITY. THE TARGET POPULATION FOR THESE SERVICES ARE PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AND OTHER QUALIFICATIONS TO WHICH FUNDING SOURCES ARE ATTACHED. A NEED WAS RECOGNIZED AMONG THE HUNDREDS OF CLIENTS ALREADY SERVED BY THE PROGRAMS WITHIN SINAI'S COMMUNITY INITIATIVES DEPARTMENT TO RECEIVE THE SAME KIND OF SUPPORT AS VSP CLIENTS. FOR INSTANCE, VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE WHO ARE SERVED BY THE FAMILY VIOLENCE PROGRAM OFTEN HAVE ECONOMIC CONSTRAINTS THAT PREVENT THEM FROM LEAVING THEIR ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS, AND THEY COULD BENEFIT FROM WORKFORCE TRAINING AND JOB COUNSELING. PARTICIPANTS OF KUJICHAGULIA CENTER/STREET VIOLENCE INTERVENTION PROGRAM ALREADY RECEIVE SOME LEVEL OF WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, BUT THEY COULD BENEFIT GREATLY FROM MORE SUPPORT IN BEING LINKED TO HIRING OPPORTUNITIES INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE ORGANIZATION. SINAI IS ASSESSING OPPORTUNITIES TO EXTEND THE PROGRAMS OF ITS COMMUNITY INITIATIVES DEPARTMENT TO MEET THESE NEEDS.ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE:1. HEALTH EDUCATION/LACK OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT AVAILABLE RESOURCES: A. ADD PASTORAL OUTREACH COORDINATOR AND COMMUNITY EDUCATOR TO COMMUNITY HEALTH EDUCATION TEAM. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH EDUCATION TEAM HAS GROWN IN PAST YEARS IN RESPONSE TO PAST NEEDS HIGHLIGHTED IN THE CHNA. RECOGNIZING THE MANY DIFFERENT APPROACHES REQUIRED TO REACH COMMUNITY MEMBERS, POSITIONS WERE ADDED AND MOVED TO PROVIDE MORE OUTREACH TO FAITH COMMUNITIES AND OFFER NEW EDUCATIONAL TOPICS SUCH AS SEXUAL HEALTH FOR TEENS.2. INSURANCE SIGNUPS: A. CONTINUE TRAINING APPLICATION COUNSELORS WHO CAN ASSIST PATIENTS WITH INSURANCE SIGNUPS. THROUGH THE MARYLAND HEALTH BENEFIT EXCHANGE, SINAI IS CERTIFIED AS AN ASCE APPLICATION COUNSELOR SPONSORING ENTITY. THIS ALLOWS THE HOSPITAL TO OFFER TRAINING AND ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT TO ANY EMPLOYEE TO ASSIST PATIENTS OR CLIENTS IN SIGNING UP FOR INSURANCE. COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS AND SOCIAL WORKERS IN THE OUTPATIENT CLINIC AND POPULATION HEALTH PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN TRAINED TO PROVIDE THESE SIGNUPS. THIS OFFER WILL BE EXPANDED TO MEDICAL ASSISTANTS AND WORKERS IN OTHER FACILITIES.NEEDS NOT ADDRESSED:1. NEIGHBORHOOD SAFETY/VIOLENCE: THIS WAS NOT A TOP PRIORITIZATION THIS YEAR SINCE THE STREET VIOLENCE INTERVENTION PROGRAM IS A ROBUST PROGRAM ACTIVELY WORKING WITH VICTIMS OF STREET VIOLENCE.2. HOUSING/HOMELESSNESS: THIS CONCERN WILL BE ADDRESSED THROUGH A COLLABORATIVE WITH OTHER CITY HOSPITALS, WHICH IS COMMITTED TO DEVELOPING A HOUSING STRATEGY FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PATIENTS.3. LACK OF TRANSPORTATION: THROUGH THE CARE MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT AND OTHER PROGRAMS THAT WORK WITH PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY, TRANSPORTATION FUNDING IS PROVIDED FOR MANY PATIENTS WHO NEED HELP IN GETTING TO THEIR DOCTORS' APPOINTMENTS. SINCE PATIENTS AND CLIENTS ARE SERVED WELL BY THESE RESOURCES, THIS CONCERN WAS NOT PRIORITIZED AS A TARGET FOR FURTHER INVESTMENT.4. INSURANCE TOO EXPENSIVE: IT WAS DETERMINED THIS WAS NOT WITHIN THE PURVIEW OF THE HOSPITAL.5. INSURANCE NOT ACCEPTED: IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE BEST ADDRESSED BY THE PHYSICIAN OFFICES6. LIMITED ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS: THIS NEED WAS NOT EXPRESSED AS A TOP PRIORITY AMONG COMMUNITY MEMBERS.7. POVERTY: SINAI IS FOCUSING ON ADDRESSING THE UNDERLYING PROBLEMS (INCLUDING JOB READINESS, TRANSPORTATION) LEADING TO POVERTY.8. SCHOOL DROPOUT/POOR SCHOOLS: KUJICHAGULIA CENTER CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTS A MENTORSHIP PROGRAM FOR MIDDLE SCHOOLERS FOCUSED ON ADDRESSING BULLYING AND VIOLENCE IN THE AFRICAN AMERICAN/BLACK COMMUNITY.9. WAIT IS TOO LONG FOR CARE: A SYSTEM-WIDE EFFORT IS BEING UNDERTAKEN TO ADDRESS THROUGHPUT IN VARIOUS HOSPITAL SETTINGS. THIS WOULD NOT BE TAKEN ON AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROJECT BUT RATHER THROUGH QUALITY LEADERSHIP AT THE HOSPITAL.10. STIGMA/DISCRIMINATION: THE CLINICALLY INTEGRATED NETWORK HAS BEGUN ADDRESSING STIGMA AND DISCRIMINATION BY INSTITUTING AN LGBTQ-FRIENDLY PROVIDER NETWORK. SINAI HOSPITAL'S PATIENT EXPERIENCE DEPARTMENT HAS ALSO HIRED A PATIENT LIAISON FOR THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY. 11. PHYSICIANS NOT TRUSTWORTHY: ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE WAS BEYOND THE SCOPE OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT.

Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C: SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. PROVIDES SERVICES WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES TO PATIENTS WHO MEET THE CRITERIA OF ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY. IT DOES NOT PURSUE THE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE AND THOSE AMOUNTS ARE NOT REPORTED AS REVENUE. THE CRITERIA CONSIDERS GROSS INCOME AND FAMILY SIZE ACCORDING TO CURRENT FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES. TO QUALIFY, THE PATIENT MUST SHOW PROOF OF INCOME 300% OR LESS OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES. A SLIDING SCALE IS USED TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY FOR THOSE WHOSE INCOME EXCEEDS 300%. ELIGIBILITY IS CALCULATED BASED ON THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE LIVING IN THE HOUSEHOLD. THE PROGRAM COVERS UNINSURED, UNDER-INSURED AND PATIENT LIABILITY AFTER INSURANCE(S) PAY. APPROVALS ARE GRANTED FOR A TWELVE MONTH PERIOD OF TIME AND PATIENTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO RE-APPLY FOR CONTINUED ELIGIBILITY.
PART I, LINE 7: MARYLAND'S REGULATORY SYSTEM CREATES A UNIQUE PROCESS FOR HOSPITAL PAYMENT THAT DIFFERS FROM THE REST OF THE NATION. THE HEALTH SERVICES COST REVIEW COMMISSION (HSCRC) DETERMINES PAYMENT THROUGH A RATE-SETTING PROCESS AND ALL PAYORS, INCLUDING GOVERNMENTAL PAYORS, PAY THE SAME AMOUNT FOR THE SAME SERVICES DELIVERED AT THE SAME HOSPITAL. MARYLAND'S UNIQUE ALL-PAYOR SYSTEM INCLUDES A METHOD FOR REFERENCING UNCOMPENSATED CARE IN EACH PAYORS RATES, WHICH DOES NOT ENABLE MARYLAND HOSPITALS TO BREAK-OUT ANY OFFSETTING REVENUE RELATED TO UNCOMPENSATED CARE. THE COST OF RENDERING SERVICES FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PATIENTS IS EQUAL TO MEDICAID REVENUES IN MARYLAND. THUS, THE NET EFFECT IS ZERO. THE EXCEPTION TO THIS IS THE IMPACT ON THE HOSPITAL OF ITS SHARE OF THE MEDICAID ASSESSMENT. IN RECENT YEARS, THE STATE OF MARYLAND HAS CLOSED FISCAL GAPS IN THE STATE MEDICAID BUDGET BY ASSESSING HOSPITALS THROUGH THE RATE-SETTING SYSTEM.PART I, LINE 7A - I:THE FOLLOWING COSTING METHODOLOGIES WERE USED TO CALCULATE LINES 7A THROUGH 7I ON THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT.OFFSETTING REVENUE - REVENUE FROM THE ACTIVITY DURING THE YEAR THAT OFFSETS THE TOTAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE OF THAT ACTIVITY, IT INCLUDES ANY REVENUE GENERATED BY THE ACTIVITY OR PROGRAM, SUCH AS A PAYMENT OR REIMBURSEMENT FOR SERVICES PROVIDED TO PROGRAM PATIENTS.

THESE COULD INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, SALARIES FOR HUMAN RESOURCES AND FINANCE DEPARTMENTS, INSURANCE AND OVERHEAD EXPENSES.PART I, LINE 7G:INCLUDED IN THESE EXPENSES ARE DIRECT AND INDIRECT COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PHYSICIANS CLINICS TOTALING $7,680,792.
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: AS A LARGE EMPLOYER AND PROVIDER OF HEALTH SERVICES IN THE NORTHWEST QUADRANT OF BALTIMORE CITY AND PARTS OF SOUTHERN BALTIMORE COUNTY, LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH PROVIDES COMMUNITY BENEFITS THAT ENHANCE THE OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE IN OUR SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH HOUSING ENHANCEMENT INITIATIVES, BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT.THE COMMUNITY SERVICE CORPS, A GROUP OF EMPLOYEE VOLUNTEERS, STAFFS COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECTS SUCH AS PAINTING LOCAL SCHOOLS, PARK BEAUTIFICATION, HOME IMPROVEMENT FOR SENIORS, HOLIDAY PARTIES FOR CHILDREN WHOSE MOTHERS ARE IN RESIDENTIAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATEMENT AT A NEARBY FACILITY, AND AN ANNUAL THANKSGIVING BASKET DISTRIBUTION TO NEEDY COMMUNITY RESIDENTS.THE BUILDING BRIDGES MENTORING PROGRAM TRAINS LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH STAFF TO SERVE AS ROLE MODELS AND LIFE COACHES FOR STUDENTS IN SELECTED COMMUNITY SCHOOLS. THE MENTORS AND MENTEES MEET REGULARLY TO EXPLORE HEALTHCARE CAREERS AND FOCUS ON THE SKILLS AND ABILITIES FOR SUCCESS AT SCHOOL AND IN THE COMMUNITY.SINAI HOSPITAL PARTNERS WITH HEALTHY NEIGHBORS, INC., AN ORGANIZATION THAT BUILDS STRONG NEIGHBORHOODS IN UNDERVALUED COMMUNITIES BY OFFERING LOW INTEREST LOANS FOR PURCHASE AND REHAB BY HOMEOWNERS, PROVIDING PROFESSIONAL ADVICE FOR REHABBERS AND FUNDING, AND FUNDING COMMUNITY PROJECTS THAT SUPPORT POSITIVE IMAGES. SINAI SUPPORTS A STAFF PERSON WHO IMPLEMENTS HEALTHY NEIGHBORHOODS SERVICES IN SINAI'S PERIMETER NEIGHBORHOODS.SINAI HOSPITAL'S VOCATIONAL SERVICES PROGRAM (VSP) OFFERS VOCATIONAL TRAINING SERVICES TO INCREASE EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNTIES IN HEALTH CARE FIELDS FOR COMMUNITY RESIDENTS, ESPECIALLY IDLE YOUTH. FOR EXAMPLE, THE HEALTHCARE CAREERS ALLIANCE PROVIDES JOB READINESS TRAINING FOR OUT-OF-SCHOOL YOUTH BETWEEN THE AGES OF 18-21 TO PREPARE THEM FOR HEALTHCARE-RELATED CAREERS.
PART III, LINE 2: BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS ESTIMATED BY USING HISTORICAL RATES FOR EACH PAYOR AND THE LENGTH OF TIME THE RECEIVABLE HAS BEEN OUTSTANDING. THESE RATES ARE REVISITED FROM TIME TO TIME AND ADJUSTED WHEN DEEMED APPROPRIATE. ANY ADDITIONAL RESERVES ARE DETERMINED BY THE HOSPITAL'S EXECUTIVES.
PART III, LINE 3: SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. DETERMINES ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH OTHER VARIOUS MEANS SUCH AS ELIGIBLE FOR NON-REIMBURSABLE MEDICAID PROGRAMS, ENROLLED IN MEANS-TESTED SOCIAL PROGRAMS, ENROLLED IN STATE OF MARYLAND GRANT FUNDED PROGRAMS WHERE REIMBURSEMENT IS LESS THAN THE CHARGE, ELIGIBLE UNDER THE JEWISH FAMILY CHILDREN'S SERVICES, OUT-OF-STATE MEDICAID PROGRAMS, MARYLAND MEDICAID ELIGIBLE AFTER ADMISSION, MARYLAND MEDICAID 216 AND IF THE PATIENT WAS DENIED MEDICAID FOR NOT MEETING DISABILITY REQUIREMENTS. OF THE REMAINING BAD DEBT EXPENSE, IT IS ESTIMATED THAT $14,032,693 IN COST MAY BE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE/CHARITY CARE.
PART III, LINE 4: ALL PATIENT ACCOUNTS ARE HANDLED CONSISTENTLY AND APPROPRIATELY TO MAXIMIZE CASH FLOW AND TO IDENTIFY BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS TIMELY. ACTIVE ACCOUNTS ARE CONSIDERED BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS WHEN THEY MEET SPECIFIC COLLECTION ACTIVITY GUIDELINES AND/OR ARE REVIEWED BY THE APPROPRIATE MANAGEMENT AND DEEMED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE. EVERY EFFORT IS MADE TO IDENTIFY AND PURSUE ALL ACCOUNT BALANCE LIQUIDATION OPTIONS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THIRD PARTY PAYOR REIMBURSEMENT, PATIENT PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS, MEDICAID ELIGIBILITY AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THIRD PARTY RECEIVABLE MANAGEMENT AGENCIES PROVIDE EXTENDED BUSINESS OFFICE SERVICES AND INSURANCE OUTSOURCE SERVICES TO ENSURE MAXIMUM EFFORT IS TAKEN TO RECOVER INSURANCE AND SELF-PAY DOLLARS BEFORE TRANSFER TO BAD DEBT. CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS WITH THIRD PARTY COLLECTION AGENCIES ARE USED TO ASSIST IN THE RECOVERY OF BAD DEBT DOLLARS AFTER ALL INTERNAL COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED. IN SO DOING, THE COLLECTION AGENCIES MUST OPERATE CONSISTENTLY WITH SINAI HOSPITAL'S GOAL OF MAXIMUM BAD DEBT RECOVERY AND STRICT ADHERENCE WITH FAIR DEBT COLLECTIONS PRACTICES ACT (FDCPA) RULES AND REGULATIONS, WHILE MAINTAINING POSITIVE PATIENT RELATIONS. SEE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PAGE 15.
PART III, LINE 8: COSTING METHODOLOGY MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS TOTAL REVENUE RECEIVED FROM MEDICARE (DSH & IME) AND MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS ARE DERIVED FROM THE ANNUAL MEDICARE COST REPORT. THE INPATIENT ROUTINE COSTS ARE DERIVED FROM THE STEP-DOWN METHODOLOGY BASED ON ACCEPTED STATISTICAL ALLOCATION WITH A UNIFORM PER DIEM COST FOR EACH PAYOR TYPE. THE ANCILLARY MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS ARE INITIALLY DERIVED FROM THE STEP-DOWN METHODOLOGY BUT ARE ALLOCATED TO THE PAYOR TYPES BASED ON THE RATIO OF COST TO CHARGE FOR EACH PAYOR.
PART III, LINE 9B: PATIENTS CAN BE DETERMINED ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE (F.A.) PROSPECTIVELY OR RETROSPECTIVELY. THE F.A. ELIGIBILITY PERIOD EXPIRES ONE YEAR FROM THE MONTH ELIGIBILITY IS APPROVED FOR MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES. THE PATIENT IS ASKED TO PROVIDE THE F.A. APPROVAL LETTER FOR SERVICES PROVIDED WITHIN THE ELIGIBILITY PERIOD. THE HOSPITAL WILL MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO IDENTIFY PATIENTS ELIGIBLE FOR F.A., ALTHOUGH HOSPITAL SYSTEMS DO NOT ALLOW FOR THIS TO BE AUTOMATED. BALANCES APPROVED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ARE WRITTEN-OFF TO A ZERO BALANCE AND THEREFORE NOT PURSUED BY INTERNAL COLLECTION PROCESSES OR THIRD PARTY AGENCIES. BALANCES ALREADY PLACED WITH THIRD PARTY AGENCIES ARE WRITTEN-OFF TO A ZERO BALANCE AND THE ACCOUNTS ARE CLOSED AND RETURNED BY THE THIRD PARTY AGENCY.
PART VI, LINE 2: SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE, INC. IS INVOLVED WITH THE BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT'S ACCOUNTABLE HEALTH COMMUNITIES PROJECT, IDENTIFYING AREAS OF SIGNIFICANT SOCIAL NEED AND TARGETING EFFORTS AROUND THESE AREAS. WE ALSO WORK REGULARLY WITH A GROUP OF BALTIMORE CITY HOSPITALS LOOKING CONTINUALLY AT NEEDS OF OUR SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES AND ADDRESSING THOSE NEEDS. THROUGH OUR CARE COORDINATION PROGRAMS, WE USE ASSESSMENTS AND DATA ANALYTICS TO IDENTIFY NEEDS AND DEVELOP TARGETED POPULATION HEALTH PROGRAMS AS WELL AS INDIVIDUAL CARE GOALS. SINAI'S M. PETER MOSER COMMUNITY INITIATIVES DEPARTMENT PROVIDES SERVICES THAT RESPOND TO MORE THAN THE SPECIFIC MEDICAL CONDITION, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH THAT MAY CONTRIBUTE TO AN INDIVIDUAL'S OR A COMMUNITY'S POOR HEALTH STATUS. SUCH SERVICES ARE BASED ON AN UNDERSTANDING THAT PERSONS WHO EXPERIENCE AN ACUTE MEDICAL CONDITION MAY WELL HAVE MUCH GREATER OBSTACLES TO POSITIVE HEALTH OUTCOMES THAN THE SPECIFIC DIAGNOSIS, AND THAT THE MEDICAL PRESENTATION MAY HAVE BEEN CAUSED OR AT LEAST EXACERBATED BY THE PERSON'S PSYCHOSOCIAL SITUATION THAT RESULTS FROM POVERTY AND INEQUALITIES THAT EXIST IN THE STRUCTURE OF OUR SOCIETY. THESE PROGRAMS INVOLVE A MEDICAL ASSESSMENT BY THE CTC NURSE AND AN ENROLLMENT ASSESSMENT." BOTH ASSESSMENTS ARE ESSENTIAL TO THE ENROLLMENT PROCESS; THE MEDICAL ASSESSMENT DETERMINES MEDICAL RISK AND ELIGIBILITY ACCORDING TO MEDICAL CRITERIA, AND THE CHW DETERMINES READINESS AND POTENTIAL FOR BEHAVIOR CHANGE RELATED TO HEALTH BEHAVIORS AND SELF-HELP. WE OFTEN USE INFORMATION GATHERED DURING OUR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM EVALUATIONS (DONE BY SURVEY AND INFORMAL CONVERSATION) WHICH ASK IF THERE ARE (1) ANY CHANGES SUGGESTED TO THE PROGRAM; AND (2) ANY TOPICS PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO SEE COVERED THAT WERE NOT COVERED IN THE PROGRAM. WE ALSO WORK IN CLOSE COLLABORATION WITH THE LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS (BALTIMORE CITY AND COUNTY) WITH REGARD TO THEIR HEALTH INITIATIVES, STATISTICS, AND ALSO DIRECTLY WITH ORGANIZATIONS TO MEET THEIR REQUESTS FOR SUBJECT MATTER (I.E. ZETA CENTER SENIORS MAY REQUEST AN EVENT SURROUNDING MEMORY ENHANCEMENT). WE ALSO WORK WITH INTERNAL SPECIALTIES IN LBH TO AID IN TARGETED HEALTH EDUCATION AS NEEDED.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION AND INSTRUCTIONS COVER SHEET IS AVAILABLE IN RUSSIAN AND SPANISH. SINAI HOSPITAL HOSTS AND PARTICIPATES IN VARIOUS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND MENTAL HYGIENE AND MARYLAND HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION SPONSORED CAMPAIGNS LIKE 'COVER THE UNINSURED WEEK'.
PART VI, LINE 4: SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE IS LOCATED IN THE NORTHWEST QUADRANT OF BALTIMORE CITY, SERVING BOTH ITS IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORS AND OTHERS FROM THROUGHOUT THE BALTIMORE CITY AND COUNTY REGION. THE NEIGHBORHOODS SURROUNDING SINAI ARE IDENTIFIED BY THE BALTIMORE NEIGHBORHOOD INDICATORS ALLIANCE (BNIA) AS SOUTHERN PARK HEIGHTS (SPH) AND PIMLICO/ARLINGTON/HILLTOP (PAH). TOGETHER THEY CONSTITUTE AN AREA THAT IS PREDOMINANTLY AFRICAN AMERICAN WITH A BELOW AVERAGE MEDIAN FAMILY INCOME, BUT ABOVE AVERAGE RATES FOR UNEMPLOYMENT, AND OTHER SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF POOR HEALTH. SPH AND PAH'S MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME WAS $26,015 AND $32,410 RESPECTIVELY. THIS IS COMPARED TO BALTIMORE CITY'S MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME OF $41,819. THE PERCENT OF FAMILIES EARNING LESS THAN THE FEDERAL SELF-SUFFICIENCY STANDARD IN SPH WAS 46.4% AND PAH'S INDICATORS WERE 28.4%. THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE FOR BALTIMORE CITY WAS 13.1%. SPH AND PAH HAD UNEMPLOYMENT RATES OF 23.6% AND 17.1% RESPECTIVELY. THE SIX ZIP CODES THAT REPRESENT THE PRIMARY SERVICE AREA IN FISCAL YEAR 2019 WERE 21215, 21207, 21208, 21209, 21216, AND 21217. THE BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT USES COMMUNITY STATISTICAL AREAS (CSA) WHEN ANALYZING HEALTH OUTCOMES AND RISK FACTORS. THE CSAS REPRESENT CLUSTERS OF NEIGHBORHOODS BASED ON CENSUS TRACK DATA RATHER THAN ZIP CODE AND WERE DEVELOPED BY THE CITY'S PLANNING DEPARTMENT BASED ON RECOGNIZABLE CITY NEIGHBORHOOD PERIMETERS. WE IDENTIFIED CSAS CONTAINED WITHIN THE ZIP CODES OF THE PRIMARY SERVICE AREAS THAT BEST REPRESENT THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITIES AT SINAI HOSPITAL. ONE ZIP CODE (21207) SPANS CITY/COUNTY LINES. BALTIMORE COUNTY DOES NOT PROVIDE CSAS. THE RACIAL COMPOSITION AND INCOME DISTRIBUTION OF THE ABOVE-INDICATED ZIP CODES REFLECT THE RACIAL SEGREGATION AND INCOME DISPARITY CHARACTERISTIC OF THE BALTIMORE METROPOLITAN REGION. FOR EXAMPLE, PAH AND SPH HAVE A PREDOMINANTLY AFRICAN AMERICAN POPULATION AT 94.5% AND 96.3% RESPECTIVELY. THIS IS IN CONTRAST TO THE NEIGHBORING MOUNT WASHINGTON/COLDSPRING COMMUNITY IN WHICH THE MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME IS $76,263 AND THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE WAS 4.5%. THE RACIAL/ETHNIC COMPOSITION OF THE MW/C COMMUNITY IS MUCH MORE COMPLEX BUT THE POPULATION IS PREDOMINANTLY (65.8%) WHITE.
PART VI, LINE 5: THE M. PETER MOSER COMMUNITY INITIATIVES PROGRAM AT SINAI HOSPITAL PROVIDES SERVICES THAT SEEK TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF PERSONS AND FAMILIES WHOSE HEALTH IS NEGATIVELY IMPACTED BY THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH. FOCUS IS ON INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES WHO COME TO THE HOSPITAL SEEKING SERVICES FOR SPECIFIC CONDITIONS SUCH AS HIGH-RISK PREGNANCY, HIV INFECTION, PERINATAL MOOD DISORDERS OR ADDICTION, INTIMATE PARTNER VIOLENCE, ETC. BUT WHOSE SOCIAL CONDITIONS MAY FURTHER IMPAIR HEALTH BEYOND THE ACUTE MEDICAL EPISODE. PSYCHOSOCIAL INTERVENTIONS ARE PROVIDED BY LICENSED SOCIAL WORKERS AND PARA-PROFESSIONAL OUTREACH WORKERS IN HOMES AND COMMUNITY LOCATIONS. SERVICES INCLUDE OUTREACH, HOME-VISITING, HEALTH, LIFE-SKILLS AND SAFETY EDUCATION, COUNSELING, INFORMATION AND REFERRALS, SERVICES COORDINATION, AND MENTORING OF YOUTH IN COMMUNITY SCHOOLS. SINAI'S DEPARTMENT OF PSYCHIATRY, IN RECOGNITION OF POOR NUTRITION AND ACCESSIBILITY TO CARE FOR MENTALLY ILL PATIENTS LIVING IN POVERTY, PROVIDES FREE HOT LUNCHES AND TRANSPORTATION TO PATIENTS ENROLLED IN THE INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT/PARTIAL HOSPITALIZATION PROGRAM. IN ADDITION, THE SINAI HOSPITAL ADDICTIONS RECOVERY PROGRAM (SHARP), AN ADULT OUTPATIENT SUBSTANCE ABUSE PROGRAM, PROVIDES INDIVIDUAL, GROUP, AND FAMILY COUNSELING TO OPIATE-ADDICTED PATIENTS. SHARP ALSO OFFERS PRIMARY CARE SERVICES AS WELL AS INTEGRATED PSYCHIATRIC CARE FOR THOSE PATIENTS WITH A CO-EXISTING DISORDER. SINAI PROVIDES A VARIETY OF SUPPORT GROUPS THAT OFFER SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT TO THOSE WHO SHARE A COMMON EXPERIENCE OR MEDICAL CONCERN. A DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH EDUCATION PROVIDES FREE HEALTH PROMOTION EDUCATION ON A WIDE RANGE OF TOPICS AND COORDINATES FREE OR LOW-COST HEALTH SCREENINGS FOR THE COMMUNITY.
PART VI, LINE 6: AS A TEACHING HOSPITAL WITH ITS OWN ACCREDITED, NON-UNIVERSITY-AFFILIATED RESIDENCY TRAINING PROGRAMS, SINAI HOSPITAL EMPLOYS A FACULTY OF 140 PHYSICIANS IN SEVERAL SPECIALTIES INCLUDING INTERNAL MEDICINE, OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY, AND PEDIATRICS. FACULTY PHYSICIANS PROVIDE SERVICES TO PATIENTS THROUGH A FACULTY PRACTICE PLAN. WHEN PATIENTS REQUEST APPOINTMENTS IN THE FACULTY PRACTICE OFFICES, THEY ARE NOT SCREENED ON THE ABILITY TO PAY FOR SERVICES. PHYSICIAN FEES FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS ARE DETERMINED ON A SLIDING SCALE BASED ON INCOME. FEES MAY BE WAIVED IF A PATIENT HAS NO FINANCIAL RESOURCES. ADDITIONALLY, IN THOSE SPECIALTIES IN WHICH THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT HAVE A FACULTY, SUCH AS DENTISTRY, OTOLARYNGOLOGY, VASCULAR AND NEUROSURGERY, WE CONTRACT WITH SPECIALISTS IN ORDER TO PROVIDE CONTINUOUS CARE FOR PATIENTS ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL THROUGH THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. IN THESE CASES, THE HOSPITAL COVERS THESE SPECIALISTS' CONSULTATION FEES AND FEES FOR PROCEDURES FOR INDIGENT PATIENTS. BECAUSE OF THESE TWO ARRANGEMENTS FOR PROVIDING SPECIALTY CARE FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS, WE ARE NOT ABLE TO DOCUMENT GAPS IN SPECIALIST CARE FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS.SINAI HOSPITAL IS A COMPONENT OF LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH, A NONPROFIT HEALTH SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES A WIDE VARIETY OF HEALTH CARE AND RELATED SERVICES TO THE RESIDENTS OF CENTRAL MARYLAND. THE COMPONENTS OF THE LIFEBRIDGE SYSTEM WORK TOGETHER CLOSELY TO ENSURE THAT AS MANY AS POSSIBLE OF THE COMMUITY'S NEEDS ARE MET IN AN INTEGRATED NONDUPLICATIVE MANNER.

Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 SINAI HOSPITAL OF BALTIMORE HAS A LONGSTANDING MISSION TO PROVIDE QUALITY PATIENT CARE, EDUCATE MEDICAL STUDENTS AND RESIDENTS WHO WILL BECOME PHYSICIANS IN OUR COMMUNITY AND BEYOND, AND ENGAGE IN MEDICAL RESEARCH TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF OUR PATIENTS AND OUR COMMUNITY. WE HAVE FOCUSED OUR ATTENTION ON QUALITY PATIENT CARE FOR MORE THAN 140 YEARS. THOUGH A JEWISH-SPONSORED HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATION, SINAI HOSPITAL'S DOORS HAVE BEEN OPEN TO CARE FOR THE SICK AND NEEDY REGARDLESS OF RACE, RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY. LOCATED IN NORTHWEST BALTIMORE CITY, SINAI HOSPITAL MEETS THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF AN EVER EXPANDING AND CULTURALLY DIVERSE POPULATION, MANY OF WHOM DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO PRIMARY HEALTH CARE. SIGNIFICANT PORTIONS OF OUR SURROUNDING COMMUNITY FREQUENT SINAI ER-7 USING THIS EMERGENCY ROOM AS A DOCTOR'S OFFICE. LACK OF ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE IS A GROWING PROBLEM FOR MANY AMERICANS, AND SINAI HOSPITAL'S DOCTORS, NURSES AND ALLIED HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS UNDERSTAND THAT THE HOSPITAL'S MISSION ENDORSES OPEN ACCESS TO ALL. SINAI HOSPITAL HAS AN ESTABLISHED AND WELL POSTED CHARITY CARE POLICY THAT OFFERS A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF CARE AT NO CHARGE OR AT REDUCED RATES TO ELIGIBLE PERSONS WHO DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE. ELIGIBILITY FOR FREE CARE, REDUCED RATES AND EXTENDED PAYMENT PLANS IS DETERMINED ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS TO THOSE WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR CARE. SINAI'S COMMITMENT TO EDUCATION IS VISIBLE IN ITS MEDICAL RESIDENCY PROGRAMS IN INTERNAL MEDICINE; PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION; OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY; PEDIATRICS; GENERAL SURGERY; AND OPHTHALMOLOGY. MANY OF THESE DOCTORS-IN-TRAINING CHOOSE SINAI FOR THEIR MEDICAL TRAINING BECAUSE OF ITS COMMUNITY SETTING AND STRONG ACADEMIC BACKGROUND. SINAI RESIDENTS STAFF A FREE TO LOW COST COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER LOCATED ON SINAI'S CAMPUS. THIS CLINIC OFFERS PRIMARY MEDICAL, DENTAL AND PHARMACY SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY SURROUNDING SINAI HOSPITAL. OUR YOUNG DOCTORS EMPLOY THE ART AND SCIENCE OF MEDICINE TO HELP A POPULATION WHOSE MEDICAL NEEDS ARE COMPLEX BECAUSE THEY OFTEN DON'T SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT UNTIL THEY ARE IN CRISIS. SINAI'S COMMITMENT TO EDUCATION EXTENDS BEYOND TRAINING DOCTORS, NURSES AND OTHER HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS. SINAI HOSPITAL IS ALSO DETERMINED TO SHARE KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION WITH THE MANY PEOPLE WHO TURN TO US FOR HELP. THE COMMUNITY MISSION COMMITTEE OF LIFEBRIDGE HEALTH EVALUATES THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY, REVIEWS EXISTING PROGRAMS AND DEVELOPS NEW SERVICES TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY. ONE OF THOSE SERVICES IS SINAI'S NEW BRIDGES TO IMPROVED CHILD HEALTH PROGRAM. THE MISSION OF NEW BRIDGES IS TO ASSIST YOUNG FAMILIES LIVING IN POVERTY TO EFFECTIVELY USE HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN AND ENHANCE THE HEALTH OF THEIR CHILDREN. PROGRAM SERVICES INCLUDE CASE MANAGEMENT, HEALTH EDUCATION, OUTREACH AND ADVOCACY SERVICES TO FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN FROM BIRTH TO SIX YEARS OF AGE. THE PROGRAM ALSO ADDRESSES THE NEEDS OF FATHERS THROUGH THE SERVICES DESCRIBED ABOVE. SERVICES ARE FREE TO ELIGIBLE FAMILIES. SINAI STAFF MEMBERS OFFER HOME VISITS, HEALTH SERVICES, EDUCATION, CRISIS INTERVENTION AND OUTREACH SERVICES.
