Form and Line Reference	Explanation
Facility: Norton Community Hospital - Part V, Section B, Line 3j	During FY20, NCH was operating under the three-year Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) approved plans by its board of directors at the end of FY18. Priorities established for their CHNA were determined by the most significant health needs of the community. MSHA hospitals, including NCH, conducted their fourth CHNA this tax period with board approval and publication occurring at the end of FY18. For the FY18 CHNA, Ballad Health and its hospitals and entities agreed to focus on an index of 25 active population health index measures (plus an additional 31 measures for monitoring). The population health index itself is based on the focus areas outlined in the previous FY15 CHNA and align with national health improvement efforts, such as Healthy People 2020. To understand each community's individual needs, Ballad Health conducted a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) for each Ballad hospital to profile the health of the residents within its service area. Throughout the CHNA process, high priority was given to determining the health disparities and available resources within each community. Community members from each county met with Ballad representatives to discuss current health priorities and identify potential solutions.The Wise County's CHNA community members evaluated measures that make up NCHs population health index and a few additional measures related to access to health screenings. The Norton County groups members completed a survey relative to what health priorities should be a focus for their specific community over the next three years. After all the details and data collection was complete and interviews with various focus groups were complete the Norton County representatives identified four top focus areas:-Smoking-Substance Abuse-Mental Health-Obesity
Facility: Norton Community Hospital - Part V, Section B, Line 5	As part of the FY18 CHNA process, MSHA hospitals conducted localized community focus groups with organization representatives such as those from local health departments, school systems, health clinics, emergency services, businesses, and philanthropic boards. The individuals in NCHS Community were selected for participation by the hospitals CEO. The NCH focus group members were represented by Norton Community Internal Medicine Residency Program, Mountain Empire Older Citizens, Healthy Appalachia Institute, City of Norton, Norton Community Physicians, Norton Hospital Foundation Board and Norton Community Board of Directors. Medically underserved populations were represented by Health Appalachia Institute. Also, between the foundation board and the community board, there are a number of individuals that sit on these boards that represent low income, minority populations, and medically underserved. Activities associated with the June 2018 assessment took place from fall of 2017 through the spring of 2018. Community members from Wise County met with Ballad Health and NC representatives to discuss health priorities and identify potential solutions. Community members were made aware of the 25 measures that make up Ballad Healths population health index plus 3 additional measures related to access to health screening. Participants then completed a survey to indicate their opinion on what health priorities should be a focus for their community. The assessment activity including focus groups & surveys were used to develop the hospital implementation plan that was followed in FY19 & FY20.
Facility: Norton Community Hospital - Part V, Section B, Line 6a	Each hospital within Mountain States Health Alliance completed a CHNA. NCH'S CHNA was conducted with all MSHA hospitals to include: Johnson City Medical Center (includes Niswonger Children's Hospital and Woodridge Hospital), Franklin Woods Community Hospital, Indian Path Community Hospital, Johnson County Community Hospital, Johnston Memorial Hospital, Norton Community Hospital, Dickenson Community Hospital, Russell County Medical Center, Smyth County Community Hospital, Sycamore Shoals Hospital, and Unicoi County Hospital.
Facility: Norton Community Hospital - Part V, Section B, Line 11	During the year, NCH continued to focus on its CHNA priorities as identified in its FY18 CHNA report. NCHs primary areas of focus included: obesity, diabetes, cancer, and substance abuse. Many additional community needs exist in our region. It is fiscally impossible for a hospital to address every health need in a community, which is why the CHNA process is used to identify and prioritize areas of focus. A thoughtful CHNA evaluates overall community health needs to determine which ones the hospital can best influence in a positive way. Consideration is given to other organizations in the hospitals geographic area that already offer services addressing specific health needs. In some cases, it is best to simply support an identified health need through a financial donation to another nonprofit organization skilled in certain areas: teen pregnancy, dental health, fighting homelessness, etc. Hospitals also lend support to other nonprofit organizations by serving on their boards, committees, and assisting with fundraising efforts. NCH made financial contributions to other nonprofit organizations providing community services that support the hospitals CHNA. NCH contributed to Mountain Empire Older Citizens, an organization focused on assisting elderly persons with low income, local middle & high schools and the hospital continued its practice of providing medications and supplies to area rescue squads this year.Some of NCHS activities during FY20:Obesity/Physical Activity: An outstanding kid's fitness program in our region for the past four years is the Morning Mile program. The Morning Mile is a before school walk/run that started in 2015 with fewer than 5 schools participating. Currently there are over 15 schools participating in the Morning Mile program in our SWVA region. The results are very positive, not only from a physical fitness standpoint, but also in an improved student attention span in the classroom.Cancer: The hospital continued low-dose lung screenings this year to enable earlier detection of lung cancer. We provide the low-dose CT scans free of charge to community members.Substance Abuse: The hospital continued their referral to Healthy Families of Southwest Virginia, a program through Mountain Empire Older Citizens, Inc.'s Southwest Virginia Children's Advocacy Center. Healthy Families receive referrals from hospitals, counselors, OB/GYN practices or self-referral. This is a program for not only substance exposed moms, but for many other risk factors. Our hospital refers new mothers, many of whom have risk factors such as substance abuse, but other factors as well. The new moms receive visits while in the hospital from trained volunteers. Healthy Families' visitors provide development and health information, support and connect parents with local resources, as needed. After leaving the hospital, weekly home visits are made to provide transportation assistance, developmental screenings for infants, childhood literacy programs, among many other services. Families are followed until the baby reaches 2 years of age. NCH, along with MSHA's other hospitals, has been diligent in its goal to ensure appropriate prescribing of opioids and a reduction in opioids in our region. The result is a significant reduction in prescribing rates. The hospital continued its practice of providing medications and supplies to area rescue squads this year.
Facility: Norton Community Hospital - Part V, Section B, Line 13h	Ballad Healths financial assistance policy allows for some exceptions to strictly adhering to federal poverty guidelines when awarding financial assistance. Unique circumstances may be weighed and assessed for financial assistance consideration on a case-by-case basis. Also, there are some services where financial assistance may be provided outside of federal poverty guidelines. These are noted in Ballad Healths financial assistance policy.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
Part I, Line 3c - Charity Care Eligibility Criteria (FPG Is Not Used)	Financial assistance approval can apply to an assortment of patients such as those who have exhausted their Medicaid/TennCare benefits, those who qualified for Medicaid/TennCare after the date of service, deceased patients with no estate or assets, uninsured patients, and underinsured patients. While Ballad Healths qualifications for financial assistance is based on federal poverty guidelines, asset values may also be used to determine financial assistance eligibility. Unique circumstances may be assessed on case-by-case basis. Charity approval covers all dates of service for the patient when they are approved and there is no limitation or cap on the amount of charity that they can receive. Ballad Health hospitals do not stop approving financial assistance for patient accounts if a hospitals charity write-offs exceed the hospitals charity budget. All Ballad Health hospitals provide an uninsured discount; the current uninsured discount is 85%. In addition to the uninsured discount, many patients will further qualify for additional financial assistance. All patients seeking financial assistance must submit an application for financial assistance and submit documents in support of the information on the application, unless specifically excluded according to our policy guidelines. Medicaid eligible patients will qualify for 100% financial assistance and not be required to complete the required documentation when: a) Medicaid eligibility requirements are met after the service is provided, b) non- covered charges occur on a Medicaid eligible encounter, or c) benefits have been exhausted. Deceased patients with no estate also qualify for 100% financial assistance.Financial assistance determinations may be retroactive for all outstanding balances. In addition, we have a number of programs with special discounts such as lactation consultation services; oncology treatment regimens; enrollment in various community programs, and prescription drugs filled post-discharge.
Part I, Line 7 - Explanation of Costing Methodology	The cost to charge ratio (worksheet 2 "ratio of patient care cost to charges") was used to calculate line 7a financial assistance (charity care) cost. Our cost accounting system was used to determine losses from Medicaid/TennCare reported on line 7b, with the exception of home health and our physician clinic. We used cost to charge ratios for home health and our physician clinic because their data is not available in our cost accounting software. Line 7e community health improvement includes costs that are taken directly from departmental operating reports or expenses specific to a community health event, with no additional overhead included in the cost. Line 7f health professions education is comprised of internships (primarily medical residents, nursing, pharmacy, EMT, respiratory therapy, public health, physical/occupational therapy, and students from other allied health programs) with local schools and universities, allowing their health profession students to receive hands-on training in a hospital setting. NCHs filed Medicare cost report is the source for cost and reimbursement reported on line 7f for our Medicare-approved family medical and internal medicine resident program. For line 7g subsidized health care services, we used our cost accounting system because we established, standard costing reports for these services. There is one exception where we do not use our cost accounting system. We have a physician clinic in a rural, low income area that is subsidized by the hospital. NCH owns and operates the clinic and subsidizes the clinics losses ($578,865). We are careful to ensure no double counting of cost Although we have many service lines within our hospital that lose money, we do not report services that hospitals are required by state licensure to provide, routine services or ancillary services. Line 7h research represents NCHs expense allocation from Ballad Health for research. Line 7i cash and in-kind contributions include cash disbursements and in-kind donations of medications to local nonprofit rescue squads and fire departments. In-kind donations of medications are based on our actual cost for these items.
Part III, Line 2 - Methodology Used To Estimate Bad Debt Expense	Self-pay balances include accounts after payments and contractual adjustments (discounts) have been applied from all third-party payers such as Medicare, Medicaid, commercial insurers, and others - generally leaving the patient responsible for any remaining deductible and/or co-payment. Other self-pay accounts are from patients with no insurance or other third-party coverage. Under Ballad Health's system-wide self-pay policy, any patient who has no insurance and is ineligible for any government assistance program received an 85% discount. Many self-pay patients will further qualify for financial assistance (sometimes referred to as charity care) if they provide the financial information we need to deem them eligible.After the normal collection process has indicated an account is uncollectible, NCH writes the account off to bad debt. The hospital's overall self-pay accounts receivable balance is evaluated on an ongoing basis to evaluate the age of accounts receivable, historical write-offs and recoveries and any unusual instances (such as local, regional or national economic conditions) which affect the collectability of receivables.
Part III, Line 3 - Methodology of Estimated Amount & Rationale for Including in Community Benefit	Our primary external collection agency historically estimated that approximately 37% of NCHs bad debt would have qualified for financial assistance if patients had provided our hospitals with a financial assistance application and required documentation. Pursuant to the merger, NCH has begun to score accounts using a presumptive eligibility tool. This tool utilizes various data points for a proprietary algorithm operated by an outside vendor to provide an individuals score. We have many instances of patients with large account balances and no health insurance coverage that we believe would qualify for financial assistance. Although patients are encouraged to apply for assistance, many will not do so. NCH would prefer for patients to submit completed financial assistance applications given that historical data clearly indicates that most uninsured patients and many underinsured will qualify for financial assistance under our program. Without a completed application, we have no choice other than to record an unpaid account as bad debt instead of charity care.
Part III, Line 4 - Bad Debt Expense	Ballad Healths audited financial statements included a footnote on page 14 that describes bad debt. NCH is included in the June 30, 2020 audited financial statements of Ballad Health (attached).
Part III, Line 8 - Explanation Of Shortfall As Community Benefit	Excluding Medicare losses reported in Part I subsidized health, the Part III Medicare allowable costs are reported using NCH's filed Medicare cost report (C/R). The C/R uses a cost to charge ratio based on a step-down allocation methodology. We believe Medicare losses should be allowed as a reportable community benefit, similar to governmental programs such as Medicaid. As a participating provider in the Medicare program, hospitals are required to provide the full regimen of care for the Medicare population. There are a number of care regimens that are compensated by the Medicare program at levels below cost. Therefore, it is only logical to allow hospitals to report these uncompensated services as a community benefit. By making this change, nonprofit providers will be encouraged to continue important care delivery models for our aging population in spite of the fact it may be economically injurious.
Part III, Line 9b - Provisions On Collection Practices For Qualified Patients	Requests for financial assistance are evaluated using established guidelines, while allowing for unique financial circumstances - for example, medically indigent patients with catastrophic medical costs that would threaten the patients household financial viability. When a patient requests financial assistance or when an application has been received, the patient's account is placed in a hold status to prevent further collection activities until financial assistance eligibility is determined. All Ballad Health hospitals comply with IRS 501(r) regulatory guidelines.Our collection policy clearly states that all patients are treated equally - with dignity and respect. We ensure that outside collection agencies used by our hospitals adhere to our billing and collection guidelines. Our hospitals' collection program includes communicating expected financial responsibility prior to service. Our hospitals provide assistance to help underinsured and uninsured patients determine sources of payment for medical bills and to help patients determine eligibility for programs such as Medicaid or TennCare.After insurance benefit verification, the hospital bills insurance carriers. If the insurance carrier denies payment of the service/procedure as non-covered or the patient has exceeded their maximum benefits, the service/procedure will qualify for the uninsured discount.Financial counselors are available to discuss financial assistance with patients and their families. Our hospital provides a number of payment options:- a pre-service discount may be offered- a discount in excess of established discounting rates may be granted for catastrophic high dollar accounts- our hospital accepts all non-contracted and out-of-network payers and will make attempts to work with these payers regarding appropriate reimbursement and billing to their members- payment arrangements are available so long as the account is not with a collection agencyReasonable efforts are made to determine if a patient is eligible for financial assistance - see Schedule H, Part VI, line 3 for information on how patients are informed about our financial assistance policy.
Part VI, Line 2 - Needs Assessment	Focusing on 25 active population health index measures allows Ballad Health to further engage the efforts of its hospitals in partnership with communities in our service areas. It has helped Ballad to better identify health disparities that appear across the individual communities and has helped Ballad to prioritize issues that are most important in each hospitals community. Engaging local community organizations will expand partnerships so that organizations work together more to address community health needs. Ballad Health uses a comprehensive process to gather input for and continues to evolve its population health plan. The executive steering team aided by national experts with experience in large-scale population health improvement, help guide the evolution. Because our hospitals are located in a region with many chronic disease challenges, Ballad Healths goal is to target population health issues to make lasting improvements. Ballad conducted approximately 150 interviews and held 40 meetings with external groups, including the regional health departments, United Way agencies, chambers of commerce, schools and community organizations, the regional accountable care community steering committee, as well as internal groups such as our population health and social responsibility committee of the Ballad Health board of directors, the Ballad Health population health clinical committee, and our hospital community boards in the creation and on-going implementation of its population health plan.
Part VI, Line 3 - Patient Education of Eligibility for Assistance	Consistent with the Ballad Health financial assistance policy, NCH communicates with and provides education to our patients through various avenues regarding governmental assistance programs and hospital financial assistance. Various educational and application documents related to obtaining financial assistance are widely available at NCH and all documents are available on the Ballad Health Website. Printed financial assistance educational materials are part of each registration packet and posters are displayed in highly visible areas of the hospital. Our financial assistance policy and documents are available in our Emergency Department and admitting areas. We are also happy to mail all documents to patients. We offer a plain language summary and all of our documents are available in English and Spanish. Financial assistance information is available during pre-registration, registration and/or during financial counseling. We offer governmental program eligibility representatives to assist patients in securing eligibility for Medicaid or TennCare, federal disability and other governmental assistance programs. Additionally, if a patient or community resident expresses an interest in the ACA-healthcare exchange, our representatives have the qualifications and experience to assist them through the entire process. Our financial counselors offer financial assistance applications to patients who do not qualify for governmental assistance programs and are unable to pay for some or all of their healthcare. All patient billing statements have verbiage discussing financial assistance along with contact information. Our last letter to the patient displays the plain language summary. In all oral correspondences with the patient, if it is identified they cannot meet payment requirements on their account, financial assistance is discussed as an option.Applicants are notified of financial assistance determination in writing.
Part VI, Line 4 - Community Information	NCH is located in Norton, Wise County, which is in rural Southwest Virginia. Southwest Virginia (SWVA) is located within the Appalachian Mountains, specifically the Blue Ridge Mountain Region. SWVA is considered rural and much different than the rest of the state. SWVA has been and remains a major coal mining region and has a high rate of uninsured adults. According to U.S. Census Bureau estimates, Norton has a population of approximately 3,970, while Wise County's population is 37,383. The latest census bureau data estimates the median age of residents of Wise County is 41.4 which is older than the median age of 38.5 in Virginia. 18.2% of Wise County's residents are 65 or older compared to 15.9% for the state. The population projection projections for Wise County over the next five years show that the county will likely experience little to no population growth overall. However, the age 65+ population moves from 19.9% in 2023. The aging population of the county presents opportunities for earlier identification and better management of health conditions that oftentimes affect elderly populations in rural areas.The bureau estimates Wise County and City of Norton median household income at $38,888 and $29,000 respectfully, compared to the State of Virginias median income of $76,456. 29.2% of Wise County's children live in poverty compared to 13.4% statewide. Wise County is almost 57% rural compared with the statewide rural rate of 24.5%. This is a significant contributing factor in influencing health outcomes in a population. Many rural residents must travel a greater distance to access different points of the health care delivery system;however, due to geographic distance, sometimes extreme weather conditions, lack of public transportation and challenging roads, rural residents may be limited, and in some instances, even prohibited from accessing health care services. There is an additional risk of injury-related deaths in rural communities. Within our own county, injury deaths are 78% higher than the statewide rate. Wise County's premature (age adjusted) mortality is almost 81% higher than the state rate. And, while our area has generally unfavorable health statistics, there are far fewer primary care physicians per resident in our county than the states average. Our county's ratio of population to primary care physicians is 1,930:1 compared to the states average of 1,320:1. In other words, we have 38% more residents per physician than the overall state rate and 61% higher than top performing U.S. counties.Recruiting physicians to rural areas is often challenging due to a myriad of factors, such as geography, economics, culture and education. Geographically, rural communities are often far removed from suburban and urban centers that provide access to education, cultural and economic opportunities. These limitations influence the relocation decision of the physician candidate and his/her spouse/children to locate to a rural area. A number of factors contribute to a unique and challenging environment that influence overall health standing in our county. According to the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute County Health Rankings, 35% of the adults in NCHs home county are obese. Obesity increases the risk for many health conditions such as coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, stroke, cancer, sleep apnea and respiratory problems, and osteoarthritis. Evidence indicates physical activity, independent of its effect on weight, has substantial benefits for health. Our county's inactivity rate is 34% compared to the statewide rate of 23%. Wise County's adult smoking rate is 19% higher than that of Virginias average. Other demographic factors influencing health status in the county also include education levels. A large portion of Wise County residents do not have an education past high school compared to the State of Virginia. Additionally, a large portion of Wise County residents (14%) do not have health insurance. According to the 2019 County Health Rankings, Wise County is ranked 125th out of 133 counties in Virginia for health outcomes and 101st in health behaviors. When compared to other Virginia counties, Wise County has higher rates of adult obesity and physical inactivity. As for social and economic factors, Wise County ranks 121st due high rates of children in poverty and higher unemployment rates.
Part VI, Line 4 - Community Building Activities	NCH leaders support and encourage all team members to volunteer time, money and skills to community service projects and charitable organizations. Senior leaders and board members set a positive example for NCH team members, serving voluntarily on committees and boards of local service and nonprofit organizations. Some also serve as members and consultants on professional committees and task forces that affect regional development in healthcare and education. We do not capture costs associated with team members that serve on other nonprofit boards or provide services to other nonprofits.NCH, in collaboration with area health agencies and providers, may offer assistance with coordination, advocacy, or contribute supplies to support groups for their program activities that serve to assist special populations within our area. Most of these organizations work to improve the lives of community members that have limited, or no, financial resources.
Part VI, Line 5 - Promotion of Community Health	NCH is dedicated to operating efficiently so that waste is minimized. NCH'S leadership remains mindful of managing limited resources so that adequate facilities and equipment are available for the care of our patients. Surplus funds are invested into improving treatment options for our patients through new technologies, recruiting physicians and trained staff in shortage areas, and improving our facilities. Various checks and balances are established to ensure that expenditures for operating expenses and capital costs are reasonable and necessary.NCH has a Medicare-approved internal medicine residency education program. In addition, our hospital serves as a training site for many other types of health professions such as nursing, pharmacy, respiratory therapy, and other allied health programs. We provide for media coverage to educate our community on health issues, provide free clinical care to low income individuals in collaboration with other nonprofit organizations, and provide free drugs and supplies to local nonprofit emergency response organizations. NCH owns Dickenson County Hospital, a critical access hospital located in the Appalachian Mountains. Dickenson is 100% rural according to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundations 2020 county health rankings report. Dickenson County's median household income is just over 48% of the median statewide income and the county's health outcomes rank 119 out of 133 in the state. DCH operates at a substantial financial loss and relies on NCH to subsidize its operations. NCHs capital contribution to DCH was almost $609,000.Physicians that request privileges who are qualified and credentialed are extended privileges by NCH.
Part VI, Line 6 - Affilated Health Care System	NCH is a 129-bed, acute-care facility and one of the hospitals within the Ballad Health system. Ballad Health operates a family of 21 hospitals, including three tertiary care facilities, a dedicated children's hospital, community hospitals, three critical access hospitals, a behavioral health hospital, an addiction treatment facility, long-term care facilities, home care and hospice services, retail pharmacies, outpatient services and a comprehensive medical management corporation. Patients benefit from NCH's affiliation with a healthcare system where they can be efficiently moved along an integrated, comprehensive continuum of care as their health status dictates. If needed, patients can be moved to one of Ballad Healths tertiary care facilities, providing advanced treatment options.
Part VI, Line 7 - States Filing of Community Benefit Report	VA TN
Part VI - Additional Information	Ballad Health is required to report community benefit estimates on a quarterly basis with the states of Virginia and Tennessee. The reporting includes all of Ballads hospital organizations and is reported using IRS Form 990, Schedule H instructions for reporting community benefit. Ballad operates under a Cooperative Agreement (CA) in Virginia and a Certificate of Public Advantage (COPA) in Tennessee as obligated by agreements between Ballad and the two states to allow Mountain States Health Alliance and Wellmont Health System to merge.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services Description	OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Health Professions Education:NCH serves as a clinical training facility for health professional education students. We have dedicated staff to work with regional colleges and universities to coordinate the placement of healthcare professional students as part of their educational curriculum. In addition to clinical training, the health care students entering our system are required to have orientation and computer training. Participants receiving clinical experience at NCH were 144 nursing students from various colleges, universities and programs. This nursing clinical experience required extensive NCH nursing staff involvement. The clinical setting and hands-on instruction cost NCH $210,209.In addition to nursing students, NCH provided a clinical setting for another 92 students training in health-related programs such as pharmacy, social work, OT/PT, laboratory, EMT/paramedic and other allied-health disciplines. The hospitals costs related to this training was $107,112.Charity and Other Unreimbursed Costs: Charity Care: While reimbursement for healthcare services rendered is critical to the operation and sustainability of the organization, NCH recognizes its obligation to provide care to individuals who cannot afford essential medical services, including emergency care. NCH accepts all patients regardless of their ability to pay. A patient is classified as a charity patient when they meet the established policies of Ballad Health and guidelines outlined by the federal government. However, financial assistance decisions are not solely based on income. Unique financial circumstances are weighed with verified patient assets which can determine financial assistance eligibility. It is not until after verification of income and assets that a decision regarding the amount of financial assistance can be made. In Fiscal Year 2020, NCH incurred a loss of $151,232 attributable to the provision of charity care. This amount does not include the costs associated with bad debt accounts.Medicaid/TennCare: NCH provides care to persons covered by governmental programs, such as Medicaid and TennCare (Tennessee residents). NCH incurred a loss of $2,765,500 providing care to this population of patients during the year. Uninsured Discount: Uninsured patients received an 85% discount. Certain elective procedures are not eligible for the uninsured discount. This uninsured discount is calculated each year in accordance with Tennessee regulations and without regard to a patients income or assets. Although the uninsured discount is not required by the Commonwealth of Virginia, Ballad Health applies the same discount to our Virginia hospitals, including NCH. The approximate cost of this discount in FY20, using a cost to charge ratio, was $1,149,353 for NCH. NCH partnered with the company Bolder Outreach Solutions to work with self-paying patients who have limited financial resources. Representatives were available at NCH to determine possible governmental medical assistance (Medicaid or TennCare) eligibility, and to help with the application process and follow-up. 636 patients were approved during FY20 for coverage. Once a person is approved for Medicaid or TennCare through this program offered through NCH, they retain coverage for future medical care. NCH incurred expense of $55,445 during FY20 to provide this service. Community Donations:For many years, NCH has provided assistance to local non-profit lifesaving organizations such as ambulance services, fire departments and rescue squads. NCH donates free medications and pharmaceutical supplies to these organizations. The cost of donated medications to rescue organizations during FY20 was $6,215. NCH also made cash donations to local non-profit organizations:-$5,560 was donated to United Way of SWVAs Backpack program to provide nutritious weekend meals to at-risk students. -$25,000 was donated to University of Virginia College at Wise Foundation for their athletic programs. -$4,625 was donated to Graduate Medical Education Consortium - CME conference for education of healthcare leaders-$5,000 was donated to Town of Pennington Gap.-$2,500 was donated to Trinity Life Center Church for Foster Care Childrens Fund.-$6,450 was donated to area middle & high schools Awards and Recognitions:NCH earned a spot on the Lown Institute Hospital index, coming in at NO. 1 in 2020 on its list of rural hospitals. More than 1,000 rural hospitals across the country were included in this list. Healthgrades has recognized NCH for six years running (2015 - 2020) with the Pulmonary Care Excellence Award, which recognizes hospitals for superior outcomes in treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pneumonia. Patients who receive COPD or pneumonia treatment at hospitals receiving this clinical quality award have a lower risk of dying. Healthgrades evaluates hospital quality for conditions and procedures based solely on clinical outcomes. Their analysis is based on more than 45 million Medicare medical claims records for the most recent three-year time period available from nearly 4,500 hospitals nationwide. Norton Community Hospitals inpatient Rehabilitation Unit was recognized for its thirteenth consecutive year of top-decile (top 10%) performance-out of more than 800 facilities for functional patient outcomes. The evaluation was based on the delivery of quality care that is effective, efficient, timely and patient-centered. To determine the rankings, Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation (UDSMR) used a system that measures the efficiency and effectiveness of a hospitals rehabilitation programs by evaluating and tracking patient progress through the rehabilitation process. Patients functional levels refer to their ability to return to their daily lives and activities without impairment. The unit first opened in 1998, and since that time it has served nearly 4,000 patients recovering from a variety of injuries, illnesses and accidents.Norton Community Hospitals internal medicine residency program is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). ACGME sets standards for U.S. Medical Education (residency and fellowship) programs and the institutions that sponsor them. Accreditation decisions are based on evaluation and review of published accreditation quality standards. NCH takes great pride in training young physicians for our rural, predominantly low-income and medically underserved area. Internal medicine residents rotate through all areas of medicine at NCH, from health maintenance to critical care. The residents assist our physicians in providing quality hands-on patient care through observation, education and by participating in grand rounds. In addition to services within the hospital setting, medical residents are exposed to treating patients in a physician office setting at our community clinic (resident continuity clinic) located in Wise, Virginia. Our unreimbursed cost for this residency program this year was $1,8,50,369.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 6: Explanation of Classes of Members or Shareholder	As of this reporting period, Norton Community Hospital remains a Virginia non-stock, nonprofit corporation. During FY20, Mountain States Health Alliance (MSHA) purchased Norton Community Healthcare Foundation 49% ownership resulting in MSHA being the sole member. Plans are underway to reorganize their structure, which will be reflected in the FY21 Form 990.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 7a: How Members or Shareholders Elect Governing Body	FY20 began with two classes of members, and each class was entitled to elect a specified number of directors to the board. The Mountain States Health Alliance (MSHA) class was elected by the MSHA Board of Directors and the Norton Community Hospital class was elected by the Community Healthcare Foundation Board of Directors. Neither side could veto an appointment. After MSHA became the sole member, their board of directors also became NCHs board of directors.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 7b: Describe Decisions of Governing Body Approval by Members or Shareholders	Certain decisions of the board are, pursuant to charter and Virginia stature, subject to approval of the members. These decisions include: dissolution of the corporation; merger of the corporation; non-ordinary course of business sale of assets, etc. No ordinary day-to-day decisions are subject to member approval.

All persons covered by this policy are required to complete a conflict of interest disclosure form on an annual basis. Should a conflict arise, it is the responsibility of the conflicted individual to update his or her disclosure immediately. All meetings of the board or board committees have a standing agenda item first on the agenda titled Conflicts of Interest. If a member of the board or board committee has a conflict of interest involving any issue on the board agenda, he or she must declare the conflict of interest during the period allotted for disclosure. If any issue arises during a meeting in which the board member has a conflict of interest, he or she must immediately declare the conflict. While each member of the board or board committee is responsible for disclosing conflicts of interest, it is also the responsibility of any board member aware of a conflict which has not been disclosed to ensure the board is made aware. The presiding officer of a board or board committee meeting may ask a conflicted member to excuse themselves from the meeting during the discussion related to the issue with which the conflict of interest applies. Under no circumstances shall a member vote on a matter that gives rise to a potential conflict.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available	Governing documents and conflict of interest policy are made available upon request to the appropriate parties requesting them. Financial statements are made available upon request to appropriate parties requesting them, and they are made available to those parties who own indebtedness of the company on a quarterly basis.

The review includes NCH/DCH's CEO.

Based on this comparable data, Ballad Health's President & CEO evaluates the data and submits his recommendations to the Board of Directors for Ballad Health for their final review and approval. In addition, Ballad Health offers an incentive plan to executives based on targeted achievement metrics set in advance of the pay year.

	Norton Community Hospital (NCH) is located in Norton, Virginia. Our 129-bed acute-care facility has served Southwest Virginia and Southeastern Kentucky since 1949. As the largest healthcare facility in the coalfield region, NCH provides a wide array of services through highly trained physicians and support staff. NCH is a Virginia nonprofit corporation. At the beginning of FY20, Mountain States Health Alliance (MSHA), was the 50.1% member of NCH, Inc., and Community Healthcare Foundation (CHCF), Inc. was the 49.9% member. During FY20, MSHA purchased CHCFs 49% membership resulting in MSHA now being the sole member.Also, NCH is the sole owner of Dickenson Community Hospital (DCH), a critical access hospital located in Clintwood, Virginia. NCH and DCH are part of the Ballad Health network, created when Mountain States Health Alliance and Wellmont Health System merged February 2018.NCH is recognized for its outstanding inpatient rehabilitation services, an osteopathic internal medicine residency program, black lung treatment services, high-quality imaging technology, and many other service lines. Improving the Communitys Health Status:NCHs black lung clinic offers the regions only program approved and federally certified by the U.S. Department of Labor for the Federal Black Lung program. We have eleven approved providers for our black lung program. Our black lung clinic offers disease screening/diagnostic testing and pulmonary rehabilitation services. Black lung disease, or coal workers pneumoconiosis, is a lung disease that results from breathing in dust from coal graphite, or man-made carbon over a long period of time. We provided just over 7,500 black lung procedures this year. NCH offers a free support group, The Better Breathers Club, for people with COPD, asthma, chronic bronchitis, lung cancer and other pulmonary diseases. The club meets monthly where members can receive valuable information and develop skills to help better manage breathing difficulties and improve their quality of life. Improving Access to Healthcare Services:Norton Community Hospital continues to subsidize a rural physician clinic to provide some relief of the physician shortage in our area. Our FY20 subsidy was just under $579,000. The primary care physician ratio in our county (number of residents to 1 primary care physician) is 38% higher than the overall state ratio. Recruiting physicians to a rural county such as ours is often challenging due to a myriad of factors, such as geography, economics, culture and education. Geographically, rural communities are often far removed from suburban and urban centers that provide access to educational, cultural and economic opportunities. These limitations influence the relocation decision of the physician candidate and his/her spouse/children to locate to a rural area. The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) issued a press release dated April 11, 2018 stating that the United States could see a shortage of up to 120,000 physicians by 2030. The U.S. population is estimated to grow by nearly 11%, with those over age 65 increasing 50% by 2030. Much of the increased demand comes from a growing, aging population. The aging population will also affect physician supply since one-third of all currently active doctors will be older than 65 in the next decade and likely to retire. The AAMC points out that data conducted in 2017 indicated that an additional 31,600 physicians would have been needed if underserved populations utilized the same health care services as insured individuals. The data looked at people in non-metropolitan areas and people without insurance compared to people living in metropolitan areas. Furthermore, the study indicated nearly half of the shortage was in the South. NCH spent $49,540 during FY20 to recruit and retain physicians. NCH recruitment efforts are based on documented community need. NCH is located in a MUA (medically underserved area), as designated by the U.S. Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA). MUA designation indicates an area as: having too few primary care providers, having a high infant mortality, a high poverty rate or a high elderly population.

	Benefits of an Integrated Health System:Since 2010, more than 130 rural hospitals have closed in the United States, according to the North Carolina Rural Health Research Program. Studies have shown rural communities that lose their hospitals struggle with reductions in access to physicians, healthcare services and in overall health status. Through Ballad Health, the scale and ability for larger and more financially solvent hospitals to subsidize losses in smaller rural communities is a clear and convincing foundational public benefit. It is clear the steps Ballad Health has taken to reduce overhead cost, realign services, invest capital and prioritize high quality have led to the sustainability of services - expanding, rather than reducing access, as has been seen in rural regions throughout the nation. Ballad Health invested more than $200 million to adopt a common information technology platform for all their merged hospitals and care sites. With Epic as the single technology platform for Ballad Health, patient data will be controlled by patients and their providers, and it will be more secure than ever before. New services will be available to patients, including real-time scheduling, digital access to health information, transparency in pricing and, most importantly, better coordination between healthcare providers, regardless of where the providers are or what data systems they use. Mountain States Health Alliance (Mountain States) is one of only 29 organizations in the country participating in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) new initiative, Accountable Health Communities Model (referred to as AHC Program), aimed at improving the health of eligible Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. The Southwest Virginia Accountable Health Communities Program (AHC) is a collaboration between community groups and Ballad Health that seeks to improve the overall health of Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries by helping address patients health-related social needs. As part of the program, Medicare and Medicaid patients in Southwest Virginia are screened for health-related social needs when they visit a Ballad Health facility. Once those needs are identified, Ballad Health tries to link those patients with resources and programs within their communities to resolve those needs.On March 10, 2020, Ballad Health executed its disaster plan in response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) global pandemic. This included the activation of its Corporate Emergency Operations Center to coordinate efforts across the system, including NCH, to rapidly plan for, and execute, ongoing response to the issues resulting from the pandemic. In May 2020, Ballad Health partnered with Premier, Inc. on a new program to ensure our team members and patients are always protected through the availability of personal protective equipment, such as gloves, gowns and masks. This program focused on investing in domestic manufacturers to enhance supply chains for essential medical products and PPE. This program led to Ballad Health acquiring a minority stake in Prestige Ameritech, the largest domestic manufacturer of face masks, including N95 respirators and surgical masks. PPE products critical for the daily operations of health systems are overwhelmingly sourced overseas. The risks associated with this overreliance on overseas providers came into focus twice in 2020, as the supply chain was disrupted when an overseas provider failed to meet FDA requirements for sterile gowns, and again as the COVID-19 pandemic swept across the globe. Prestige Ameritech operates primarily in the United States, where it obtains its raw materials. Ballad Health, provides numerous services to improve the health of our communities. The following services are provided by the Ballad Health entity but funded by the various hospitals and other divisions within our health system. The funding levels by NCH for these services are reflected below:The Ballad Health parish nurse program is designed to provide holistic ministry and special promotion services within the faith community. The parish nurse program assists individuals in gaining optimal mental, physical and spiritual health by complementing the ministry provided by pastors and other lay ministers. Some of the services and programs provided include screenings for blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, glaucoma and overall fitness, classes for all age groups offered on health related issues (nutrition, exercise, parenting, care for elderly parents, stress management, CPR), hospital, nursing home and home visits for assessment of health care needs, referrals to appropriate community resources and the creation of health tips in congregational newsletters, bulletin boards and other forms of communication. Currently, there are dozens of churches in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia that are serviced by the Ballad Health parish nurse program. NCH funded $2,648 for this program in FY20. Ballad Healths Nurse Connect is a toll-free line that connects community members with experienced nurses around the clock. The nurses provide expert medical advice anytime, day or night, make referrals to a new primary care provider with a location and hours convenient to the community member and referrals to a physician specialist when they need advanced local medical care. They also provide health information and resources, including health screenings and immunizations, and make referrals to urgent care clinics to see a doctor near the community member the same day. NCH funded $14,568 toward this popular service during FY20.Ballad Health contracts with Med-Trans, locally known as Wings Air Rescue, to operate full-time bases in Elizabethton, TN, Greeneville, TN, Jenkins, KY and Marion, VA plus a base at Bristol Motor Speedway, which is active during race events. Med-Trans provides air ambulance transport of critically ill and injured patients to one of the closest tertiary hospitals in the region. Ballad Health also provide staffing, physicians, and medical supplies to the Commonwealth of Virginia for the Virginia State Polices Med Flight air ambulance service. VSP Med Flight maintains its base in Abingdon, VA. NCHs contribution this year for the air ambulance services that are especially critical in rural areas was $18,759.Ballad Health is focused on investing in various initiatives to improve population health-the overall health and well-being of the residents living in the Appalachian Highlands. In FY19 Ballad Health established a new department, Population Health, to focus on these initiatives. NCH invested $32,603 in FY20 toward this initiative that supplements the many other forms of community benefit provided by our health systems hospitals.
