UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT MEDICAL CENTER PART V, SECTION B, LINE 3J: APPENDIX K OF THE 2016 CHNA DESCRIBES IN DETAIL A NUMBER OF ONGOING PROGRAMS AND ONE TIME FUNDING THAT HAS OCCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE 2013 CHNA PROCESS. SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT HAS OCCURRED, AND ALTHOUGH IT TAKES TIME TO EVALUATE WHETHER OR NOT ACTIONS ARE MOVING THE NEEDLE ON ISSUES, THE ORGANIZATION FIRMLY BELIEVES THAT THE ACTIONS TAKEN AND FUNDING PROVIDED HAVE HAD A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITY.
UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT MEDICAL CENTER PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: UVM MEDICAL CENTER TOOK INTO ACCOUNT INPUT FROM PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE COMMUNITY WE SERVE IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS. THE 2016 ASSESSMENT WAS PLANNED IN COLLABORATION WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMUNITY PARTNERS: CHITTENDEN COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION, COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS OF VERMONT, HOWARD CENTER, ONECARE VERMONT, UNITED WAY OF NORTHEAST VERMONT, VERMONT DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, AND THE VISITING NURSE ASSOCIATION OF CHITTENDEN AND GRAND ISLE COUNTIES.A COMMUNITY SURVEY WAS ADMINISTERED ONLINE DURING THE TWO YEAR PERIOD PRIOR TO ITS PUBLICATION. 1,556 SURVEYS WERE COMPLETED BY ADULT RESIDENTS OF CHITTENDEN AND GRAND ISLE COUNTIES. PAPER SURVEYS WERE DISTRIBUTED WITH TRANSLATED SURVEYS MADE AVAILABLE AT SIX ESL CLASSES IN COLLABORATION WITH THE VERMONT REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT PROGRAM. INTERVIEWS WITH TWENTY SEVEN COMMUNITY LEADERS WERE COMPLETED. LEADERS WERE ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR VISION FOR A HEALTHY COMMUNITY, ASSETS AND CHALLENGES IN THEIR COMMUNITY, AND BARRIERS TO HEALTH. LEADERS WERE SELECTED BASED ON VARIOUS AGE GROUPS SERVED (SENIORS, CHILDREN, FAMILIES), AS WELL AS A MIX OF SUBJECT AREAS (LOW-INCOME, REFUGEES, MENTAL HEALTH, SUBSTANCE ABUSE). LEADERS REPRESENTED LOCAL AND STATE GOVERNMENT (AGENCY OF HUMAN SERVICES, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, DISTRICT ATTORNEY AND MAYOR OF BURLINGTON), YOUTH ORGANIZATIONS(BOYS & GIRLS CLUB, KIDSAFE COLLABORATIVE, SPECTRUM YOUTH), HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS (UVM MEDICAL CENTER, COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS OF BURLINGTON), SENIOR ORGANIZATIONS (C.I.D.E.R, AGE WELL), HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS (CHAMPLAIN HOUSING TRUST, COTS), LGBTQ COMMUNITY(PRIDE CENTER OF VERMONT), MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE (HOWARD CENTER, NORTHWESTERN COUNSELING), AND BUSINESS (CHAMBER OF COMMERCE). ADDITIONALLY, A COMMUNITY BREAKFAST WAS HELD WITH 92 COMMUNITY LEADERS ATTENDING FOR IN-DEPTH DISCUSSIONS ON COMMUNITY NEEDS. IN ADDITION, A FOCUS GROUP OF 15 COMMUNITY MEMBERS, PRIMARILY WITH LOWER INCOME LEVELS, WAS CONVENED.
UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT MEDICAL CENTER PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: UVM MEDICAL CENTER'S 2016 CHNA IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY PRIORITIZED THE FOLLOWING NINE COMMUNITY NEEDS: ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOOD, AFFORDABLE HOUSING, CHRONIC CONDITIONS, EARLY CHILDHOOD AND FAMILY SUPPORTS, HEALTHY AGING, MENTAL HEALTH, ORAL HEALTH, REMOVING BARRIERS TO CARE, AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE. NEEDS ARE BEING ADDRESSED THROUGH A HOSPITAL-WIDE INTERNAL COMMITTEE, FUNDING TO EXTERNAL ORGANIZATIONS ENGAGED IN SELECTED PRIORITY NEEDS, COLLABORATION ON COMMUNITY WIDE COALITIONS AND INITIATIVES, ONGOING PROGRAMS THAT ADDRESS NEEDS, AND INTERNAL STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT.TWO COMMUNITY NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE 2016 ASSESSMENT THAT WERE NOTINCLUDED IN THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY: ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES AND SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS AND TEEN BIRTHS. ALTHOUGH UVM MEDICAL CENTER'S ROLE AS A MAJOR ECONOMIC ENGINE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY IS ACKNOWLEDGED, THE STEERING COMMITTEE DECIDED THAT THE MEDICAL CENTER COULD MORE EFFECTIVELY LEAD THE FOCUS ON OTHER HEALTH-RELATED IDENTIFIED NEEDS. AS FOR STIS AND TEEN BIRTHS, THE GROUP AGREED THAT ALTHOUGH THE TREND IS MOVING IN A NEGATIVE DIRECTION, IT REPRESENTS A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION AND OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY ARE ADDRESSING THIS NEED.
UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT MEDICAL CENTER PART V, SECTION B, LINE 16J: IN ADDITION TO POSTING OUR GUIDELINES AND PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY ONLINE, AT THE TIME OF SERVICE, REGISTRATION AND CHECK-IN STAFF PROVIDE A COPY OF THE PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY TO ALL PATIENTS WHO HAVE OR WILL HAVE A BALANCE AND TO THOSE WHO EXPRESS FINANCIAL HARDSHIP.

Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C: TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, AN ELIGIBLE PATIENT MUST PASS BOTH AN INCOME AND ASSETS TEST. INCOME IS SET AT A MAXIMUM OF 400% FPLG AND THE ASSETS TEST IS SET AT 400% OF THE VERMONT MEDICAID ASSISTANCE RESOURCE MAXIMUM-HOUSEHOLD, PUBLISHED BY THE VERMONT DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN & FAMILIES. WHEN ASSETS EXCEED 400%, THE APPLICATION IS DENIED. IF THEY DO NOT EXCEED, ASSISTANCE IS GRANTED BASED UPON THE PATIENT'S INCOME FPLG.
PART I, LN 7 COL(F): THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25 BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON LINE 7(F) IS $0. ALL PATIENT RELATED BAD DEBT IS SHOWN AS A DEDUCTION FROM PATIENT REVENUE.
PART I, LINE 7 UVM MEDICAL CENTER UTILIZED THE AXIOM COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE TABLE ON LINE 7. THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM ADDRESSES ALL PATIENT SEGMENTS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, INPATIENT, OUTPATIENT, EMERGENCY ROOM, PRIVATE INSURANCE, MEDICAID, MEDICARE, UNINSURED AND SELF PAY. THE COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO DERIVED FROM WORKSHEET 2 WAS ALSO UTILIZED FOR SOME OF THE FIGURES REPORTED IN THE TABLE ON LINE 7.THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT MEDICAL CENTER'S ANNUAL MEDICAID PROVIDER TAX IS ASSESSED ON VERMONT ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS BY THE STATE OF VERMONT. THE TAX ASSESSMENT IS CALCULATED AS 6% OF A HOSPITAL'S BASE YEAR NET PATIENT CARE REVENUE.
PART III, LINE 2: UVM MEDICAL CENTER'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INCLUDE A FOOTNOTE DESCRIBING BAD DEBT EXPENSE. RECEIVABLES ARE REPORTED NET OF AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. THE PROVISION FOR PATIENT RELATED BAD DEBTS IS REPORTED AS A DEDUCTION FROM GROSS REVENUE. THIS EXPENSE IS DETERMINED AS A PERCENTAGE OF GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE BASED ON ACTUAL WRITE-OFF HISTORY, REVIEWED ON A QUARTERLY BASIS AND ADJUSTED ON A SEMI-ANNUAL BASIS.
PART III, LINE 3: THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 2 REPRESENTS THE TOTAL PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT ON THE INCOME STATEMENT. DISCOUNTS AND PAYMENTS ON PATIENT ACCOUNTS ARE NETTED AGAINST THE TOTAL GROSS CHARGES WHEN DETERMINING BAD DEBT EXPENSE. THE $668,602 REFLECTS THE ADJUSTED BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOR ALL PATIENTS WHO SUBMITTED AN INITIAL APPLICATION, HOWEVER, UPON FOLLOW-UP DID NOT RESPOND TO REQUESTS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION OR SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION. UVM MEDICAL CENTER HAS A DATABASE WHICH TRACKS ALL APPLICATIONS AND THEIR STATUS; A QUERY EXTRACTED ALL INCOMPLETE/NON RESPONSIVE ARCHIVED APPLICATIONS PROVIDING A LIST OF PATIENTS & DEPENDENTS. SUBSEQUENTLY, A QUERY OF ASSOCIATED PATIENT SERVICES FROM 10/1/18-9/30/19 FOR "SELF-PAY AND COLLECTION ACCOUNTS WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BILLING SYSTEM.UVM MEDICAL CENTER ATTEMPTS TO ENSURE THAT CONSPICUOUS DISPLAY OF OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY APPEARS THROUGHOUT OUR FACILITY.
PART III, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS ADDRESSED ON PAGES 46-47, IN FOOTNOTE 19 OF ITS MOST RECENT AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
PART III, LINE 8: THE AMOUNT REPORTED IN PART III, LINE 6, MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS OF CARE, IS DERIVED FROM UVM MEDICAL CENTER'S FYE 9/30/19 MEDICARE COST REPORT, WORKSHEET D-1, COMPUTATION OF INPATIENT OPERATING COSTS, WORKSHEET E PART B, CALCULATION OF OUTPATIENT SETTLEMENT, AND WORKSHEET I-4, COMPUTATION OF AVERAGE COST PER TREATMENT FOR OUTPATIENT RENAL DIALYSIS. WHILE UVM MEDICAL CENTER HAS HISTORICALLY FOLLOWED THE CATHOLIC HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION'S GUIDANCE AND HAS NOT CONSIDERED ANY MEDICARE SHORTFALL (REPORTED IN PART III, LINE 7) AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT, IT IS LIKELY THAT SOME PORTION OF MEDICARE PATIENTS WOULD HAVE QUALIFIED FOR CHARITY CARE UNDER OUR POLICIES IN THE ABSENCE OF MEDICARE COVERAGE, SUCH THAT SHORTFALLS ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE PATIENTS WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN OUR COMMUNITY BENEFITS.
PART III, LINE 9B: THE UVM MEDICAL CENTER CREDIT AND COLLECTIONS POLICY IS DETACHED IN TERMS OF WHETHER PATIENTS QUALIFY FOR ASSISTANCE. INVOICES OF PATIENTS WHO DO QUALIFY OR ARE KNOWN TO QUALIFY WILL NOT AGE TO COLLECTIONS. BALANCES THAT REMAIN UNPAID AFTER THE APPROPRIATE DISCOUNT HAS BEEN ADJUSTED WILL AGE TO COLLECTIONS.AN EXTENSION OF UP TO 120 DAYS CAN BE GRANTED IN THE COLLECTION AGENCY WINDOW WHEN PATIENTS APPLY AND ARE APPROVED FOR ASSISTANCE WITHIN THE APPLICATION WINDOW.THE COLLECTION PROCESS IN PLACE AT UVM MEDICAL CENTER INCLUDES GENERATION OF MONTHLY STATEMENTS, FOLLOWED BY A PRE-COLLECTION LETTER OVER THE COURSE OF 120 DAYS. IN THE CASE OF UNDELIVERABLE MAIL, EFFORTS WILL BE MADE TO REACH THE PATIENT BY TELEPHONE. IF A NEW BILLING ADDRESS IS OBTAINED, THE 120 DAY WINDOW WILL BEGIN AGAIN.

NUMBER OF VOLUNTEERS FORM 990, PART I, LINE 6 THE TOTAL NUMBER OF VOLUNTEERS INCLUDES NON-COMPENSATED MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. IN ADDITION, VOLUNTEERS WORK IN OVER 50 DEPARTMENTS TO SUPPORT THE WORK OF EMPLOYEES TO MEET PATIENT NEEDS AND ENHANCE THE PATIENT EXPERIENCE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT MEDICAL CENTER, INC. (UVM MEDICAL CENTER).
COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT FORM 990, PART III UVM MEDICAL CENTER IS BOTH A COMMUNITY HOSPITAL AND, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT, THE STATE'S ONLY ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTER. IT IS OUR MISSION TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE BY INTEGRATING PATIENT CARE, EDUCATION AND RESEARCH IN A CARING ENVIRONMENT. IN ITS COMMUNITY HOSPITAL ROLE, UVM MEDICAL CENTER SERVES APPROXIMATELY 168,000 RESIDENTS IN CHITTENDEN AND GRAND ISLE COUNTIES AND PROVIDES PRIMARY CARE SERVICES AT ELEVEN VERMONT SITES. THE ORGANIZATION ALSO OFFERS FREE TO THE COMMUNITY A WIDE RANGE OF HEALTH, PREVENTION AND WELLNESS PROGRAMS, ALL OF WHICH HELP TO LIMIT THE NEED FOR MORE EXPENSIVE ACUTE CARE. THROUGH A VITAL PARTNERSHIP, UVM MEDICAL CENTER, THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT COLLEGE OF MEDICINE AND THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT COLLEGE OF NURSING AND HEALTH SCIENCES FORM VERMONT'S ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTER - ONE OF ONLY APPROXIMATELY 130 SUCH CENTERS IN THE COUNTRY. TOGETHER, THESE INSTITUTIONS ARE COMMITTED TO HELPING IMPROVE OUR REGION'S QUALITY OF LIFE WITH INNOVATIONS IN MEDICINE AND HEALTH CARE THAT ARISE FROM NEW KNOWLEDGE AND DISCOVERY. THROUGH ITS ALLIANCE WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT, UVM MEDICAL CENTER IS ABLE TO PROVIDE THE BEST PATIENT CARE POSSIBLE BY BRINGING MEDICAL EDUCATION AND RESEARCH TO THE BEDSIDE, THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE AND INTO THE COMMUNITY. AS A REGIONAL REFERRAL CENTER, UVM MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES ADVANCED-LEVEL CARE TO A POPULATION OF APPROXIMATELY ONE MILLION PEOPLE THROUGHOUT VERMONT AND NORTHERN NEW YORK. THE MEDICAL CENTER EXTENDS BEYOND ITS THREE MAIN CAMPUSES IN THE BURLINGTON AREA TO INCLUDE MORE THAN 30 PATIENT CARE SITES AND 68 OUTREACH CLINICS, PROGRAMS AND SERVICES THROUGHOUT THE REGION. THE UVM MEDICAL CENTER'S MILLER BUILDING OPENED ON JUNE 1, 2019, AND IS PLAYING A BIG ROLE IN ACHIEVING THE GOAL OF ENHANCING CARE FOR THE COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING 128 SINGLE-BED ROOMS AND FACILITATING THE CREATION OF MANY MORE PRIVATE ROOMS THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITAL. EVIDENCE-BASED STUDIES SHOW THAT PRIVATE ROOMS WITH AMPLE ROOM FOR FAMILIES CAN PROMOTE BETTER HEALING, REDUCE MEDICAL ERRORS, IMPROVE SLEEP QUALITY AND FACILITATE GREATER INVOLVEMENT OF FAMILIES AND CARE TEAMS. THE NEW SPACE WAS DESIGNED WITH INPUT FROM FORMER PATIENTS AND FAMILIES. IT BRINGS CAREGIVERS CLOSER TO THEIR PATIENTS, AND SUPPORTS THE COLLABORATIVE MODEL OF PATIENT-AND FAMILY-CENTERED CARE. EACH OF THESE RESPONSIBILITIES IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT IN FULFILLING UVM MEDICAL CENTER'S MISSION. 1. PATIENT CARE - SERVING A POPULATION OF APPROXIMATELY ONE MILLION THROUGHOUT VERMONT AND NORTHERN NEW YORK, UVM MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES A FULL RANGE OF SERVICES COVERING EVERY MAJOR AREA OF MEDICINE. THE MEDICAL CENTER AVERAGES MORE THAN A MILLION PATIENT VISITS EACH YEAR, INCLUDING INPATIENT, OUTPATIENT, EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND PHYSICIAN OFFICE VISITS. UVM MEDICAL CENTER IS AT THE LEADING EDGE OF HEALTH CARE INNOVATIONS, INCLUDING HAVING IMPLEMENTED A SYSTEM-WIDE ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD THAT SUPPORTS IMPROVED HEALTH CARE FOR OUR COMMUNITIES AND SERVING AS ONE OF THE FIRST TWO PILOT SITES FOR THE VERMONT BLUEPRINT FOR HEALTH, A STATEWIDE PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP FOCUSED ON ENSURING THAT ALL VERMONTERS HAVE ACCESS TO PRIMARY CARE SERVICES USING THE "PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME" CARE DELIVERY MODEL. IN LINE WITH THE BLUEPRINT, UVM MEDICAL CENTER HAS IMPLEMENTED A COMMUNITY HEALTH TEAM TO SERVE ALL OF OUR PRIMARY CARE PRACTICES, ALL OF WHICH HAVE BEEN RECOGNIZED BY THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE ON QUALITY ASSURANCE AS PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOMES. 2. EDUCATION - AS AN ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTER, WE HAVE THE SPECIAL RESPONSIBILITY OF EDUCATING THE NEXT GENERATION OF DOCTORS, NURSES AND ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. THE VAST MAJORITY OF UVM MEDICAL CENTER DOCTORS NOT ONLY TAKE CARE OF PATIENTS, THEY ALSO TEACH MEDICAL STUDENTS THROUGH THEIR POSITIONS AS MEMBERS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT COLLEGE OF MEDICINE FACULTY. A NUMBER OF UVM MEDICAL CENTER NURSES AND ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONALS ALSO TEACH AT THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT COLLEGE OF NURSING AND HEALTH SCIENCES. UVM MEDICAL CENTER SERVES AS THE CLINICAL TRAINING SITE FOR THE APPROXIMATELY 465 MEDICAL STUDENTS AND 1,200 NURSING AND ALLIED HEALTH STUDENTS WHO ATTEND THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT. ADDITIONALLY, UVM MEDICAL CENTER IS THE TRAINING SITE FOR APPROXIMATELY 330 RESIDENTS AND FELLOWS. PATIENTS BENEFIT FROM HAVING RESIDENTS, MEDICAL STUDENTS AND NURSING AND ALLIED HEALTH STUDENTS AS PART OF THEIR CARE TEAM. IN COLLABORATION WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT, UVM MEDICAL CENTER CONTINUES TO USE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIMULATION CENTER THAT INCLUDES 9,000 SQUARE FEET OF TEACHING SPACE WITH FULLY-FUNCTIONING HOSPITAL ROOMS AND HIGH-TECH MANNEQUINS THAT SIMULATE ALL KINDS OF DISEASES AND INJURIES. THE SIMULATION CENTER ALSO HAS HANDS-ON LABS FOR SKILL-BUILDING AS WELL AS A VIRTUAL REALITY TRAINER THAT IMPROVES ON OLD TEACHING METHODS. IN ADDITION TO BEING USED TO TRAIN FUTURE DOCTORS AND NURSES, THE NEW FACILITY IS OPEN TO ALL VERMONT MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS, INCLUDING EMERGENCY MEDICAL TECHNICIANS AND VERMONT NATIONAL GUARD MEDICS. 3. RESEARCH - A CORE MISSION OF THE ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTER IS TO ADVANCE MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE THROUGH RESEARCH, SO IN ADDITION TO TEACHING AND TRAINING, MANY OF OUR PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND OTHER PROVIDERS ENGAGE IN BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH, SEEKING NEW CURES AND MORE EFFECTIVE TREATMENTS. THERE ARE OVER 1,000 ACTIVE CLINICAL TRIALS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT AND UVM MEDICAL CENTER. CLINICAL TRIALS ARE RESEARCH STUDIES CONDUCTED USING VOLUNTEERS. EACH STUDY ANSWERS SCIENTIFIC QUESTIONS AND TRIES TO FIND BETTER WAYS TO PREVENT, SCREEN FOR, DIAGNOSE, OR TREAT A DISEASE. THIS ACTIVE RESEARCH PROGRAM HAS A DIRECT BENEFIT TO PATIENTS AT UVM MEDICAL CENTER, WHO HAVE ACCESS TO THE LATEST TREATMENTS AND TECHNOLOGY AND WHO ARE CARED FOR BY SOME OF THE LEADING EXPERTS IN THEIR FIELD. THE ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTER IS ALSO ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN POPULATION-BASED HEALTH RESEARCH, INCLUDING EVALUATING VERMONT BLUEPRINT FOR HEALTH PILOT PROJECTS INVOLVING THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPACT OF PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOMES WITHIN THE STATE. 4. COMMUNITY BENEFIT - IN ADDITION TO DELIVERING HEALTH CARE, EDUCATING HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS, AND RESEARCHING NEW KNOWLEDGE, UVM MEDICAL CENTER ALSO LIVES ITS MISSION - TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES - BY REACHING OUT TO HELP PEOPLE TAKE CARE OF THEIR HEALTH. THESE EFFORTS INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: COMMUNITY WELLNESS AND EDUCATION - UVM MEDICAL CENTER OFFERS NUMEROUS FREE HEALTH EDUCATION CLASSES, IN WHICH HEALTH PROFESSIONALS PROVIDE INFORMATION ON A VARIETY OF TOPICS. MANY OTHER HEALTH AND WELLNESS PROGRAMS OFFERED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR SERVE AS A VALUABLE RESOURCE TO OUR COMMUNITY, RANGING FROM CHILD PASSENGER CAR SEAT SAFETY CHECKS TO FREE BLOOD PRESSURE SCREENINGS, TOBACCO CESSATION CLASSES, AND WORKSHOPS FOR SENIORS. FRYMOYER COMMUNITY HEALTH RESOURCE CENTER - PATIENTS, FAMILIES AND THE PUBLIC ARE MORE INTERESTED THAN EVER IN GAINING ACCESS TO THE LATEST HEALTH INFORMATION AVAILABLE. THE FRYMOYER COMMUNITY HEALTH RESOURCE CENTER AT UVM MEDICAL CENTER OFFERS THE COMMUNITY EASY, FREE, GUIDED ACCESS TO THE BEST INFORMATION ABOUT HEALTH AND MEDICINE. COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS - UVM MEDICAL CENTER REGULARLY PARTNERS WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS AND PROVIDERS TO HELP MEET THE NEEDS OF OUR COMMUNITY. THIS INCLUDES WORKING WITH OTHER ORGANIZED SYSTEMS OF CARE (SUCH AS HOME HEALTH AGENCIES, OTHER VERMONT HOSPITALS, AND PHYSICIAN PRACTICES), AS WELL AS COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS WHOSE MISSIONS ARE SIMILAR TO OURS. FOR EXAMPLE, UVM MEDICAL CENTER COLLABORATES WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO REGULARLY ASSESS COMMUNITY AND HEALTH CARE NEEDS, WHICH HELPS GUIDE OUR ORGANIZATION'S PRIORITIES.
OUR COMMUNITY BENEFITS FALL INTO FOUR GENERAL CATEGORIES: *DIRECT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO PATIENTS. THIS REPRESENTS FREE CARE GIVEN TO PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY UNDER UVM MEDICAL CENTER'S "PATIENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM" POLICY. THAT POLICY OFFERS FREE CARE TO PATIENTS UNDER 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL), WITH PATIENTS BETWEEN 200% AND 400% FPL PAYING A SLIDING-SCALE DEDUCTIBLE ONLY. FOR FY 2018, WE CALCULATED THIS AMOUNT AT APPROXIMATELY $12.1 MILLION IN ACTUAL COSTS (NOT CHARGES)(SEE SCHEDULE H, LINE 7A, COLUMN E). *SUBSIDIZED PROGRAMS. THESE INCLUDE RESEARCH ACTIVITIES AND EDUCATION AND TRAINING PROGRAMS FOR HEALTH PROFESSIONALS THAT ARE NOT FULLY REIMBURSED THROUGH OTHER MEANS, AS WELL AS SUBSIDIES TO SUPPORT HEALTH SERVICES THAT BENEFIT OUR COMMUNITY, INCLUDING THE UNINSURED AND LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS. THOSE SERVICES INCLUDE MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, EMERGENCY SERVICES AND CRITICAL CARE TRANSPORTATION SERVICES. FOR FY 2018, WE CALCULATED THESE SUBSIDIES AT APPROXIMATELY $3.8 MILLION IN COMMUNITY BENEFIT (SEE SCHEDULE H, LINE 7G, COLUMN E). *COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND DIRECT GRANTS. THESE INCLUDE, FOR EXAMPLE, COMMUNITY HEALTH SERVICES (HEALTH EDUCATION CLASSES, SUPPORT GROUPS, SCREENING SERVICES, FREE CLINICS, ETC.), FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND IN-KIND DONATIONS (CASH DONATIONS, GRANTS, IN-KIND SUPPORT SUCH AS MEETING ROOMS, PARKING VOUCHERS, ETC.), COMMUNITY-BUILDING AND LEADERSHIP ACTIVITIES (INCLUDING ADVOCACY FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPROVEMENTS), AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT OPERATIONS (INCLUDING COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR OFFICE OF COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT, COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS, ETC.). FOR FY 2018, WE CALCULATED THE VALUE OF THESE COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND GRANTS AT $6.6 MILLION (SEE SCHEDULE H, LINE 7E AND 7I, COLUMN E). *MEDICAID AND OTHER PUBLIC PROGRAM UNDERPAYMENTS. THESE INCLUDE UNDERPAYMENTS FROM VERMONT'S MEDICAID PROGRAM AS WELL AS SEVERAL SMALLER PUBLIC PROGRAMS (FOR EXAMPLE, LADIES FIRST). THESE DO NOT INCLUDE ANY UNDERPAYMENTS BY MEDICARE. FOR FY 2018, WE CALCULATED THIS AMOUNT AT $140 MILLION (SEE SCHEDULE H, LINE 7B, COLUMN E). OUR TOTAL NET COMMUNITY BENEFIT SPENDING IN FY 2018 WAS $211 MILLION. THIS REPRESENTS APPROXIMATELY 15.5% OF UVM MEDICAL CENTER'S TOTAL PROGRAM SERVICE EXPENSE IN FY 2018 (SEE SCHEDULE H, LINE 7K, COLUMN F).
