THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC.

THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC.	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: IN PLANNING TO MEET COMMUNITY NEEDS, THE HOSPITAL WORKS CLOSELY WITH KEY COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS TO ASSESS HOW COMMUNITY HEALTH NEED PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED IN THE 2020 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT ARE BEING ADDRESSED. THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL CREATED AND ADOPTED A COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN(CHIP) THAT SERVES AS A ROAD MAP FOR THE ORGANIZATION TO MAINTAIN A KEEN EYE ON THOSE PRIORITIES. THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS TEAM OVERSEES THE CHIP. INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS SERVE AS PRIORITY CHAMPIONS AND WORK WITH GOAL CHAMPIONS TO ENSURE THAT THE HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO PURSUE IMPROVEMENT IN THESE AREAS. THE THREE PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED IN THE COMMUNITY INCLUDED: 1. MENTAL HEALTH 2. SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT AND PREVENTION 3. OBESITY TREATMENT AND PREVENTIONIN 2020, LIKE ALL COMMUNITIES, OUR HOSPITAL FACED CHALLENGES DUE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. WITH CHALLENGES WE FACED THROUGHOUT THE COVID-19, MANY PRE-PLANNED EFFORTS FOR 2020 WERE FORCED TO CANCEL TO KEEP OUR PATIENTS, VISITORS, AND GREATER COMMUNITY SAFE AND HEALTHY.WHEN ASSESSING WHAT WE PREDOMINANTLY ADDRESSED, MOST WERE IN RELATION TO COVID-19. SOME OF THE AREAS WE FOCUSED ON IN THE CHIP REMAINED THE SAME, WITH INCREASED EFFORTS. THESE EFFORTS WERE PLANNED AND CONTINUED, VIRTUALLY. RURAL HEALTHCARE FACILITIES THROUGHOUT SOUTHWESTERN WISCONSIN JOINED TOGETHER IN THIS EFFORT WITH A UNIVERSAL MESSAGE TO HELP OUR COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT THIS TIME.TO ADDRESS MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS, RICHLAND HOSPITAL HAS MADE GROWING THE SENIOR LIFE SOLUTIONS PROGRAM, SUPPORT TOWARDS NAMI, AND THE FOCUS ON MENTAL HEALTH AT ITHACA AND RICHLAND SCHOOL DISTRICTS GOALS UNDER THE MENTAL HEALTH PRIORITY. SENIOR LIFE SOLUTIONS PROVIDED SERVICES THROUGH VIRTUAL ZOOM GROUP AND INDIVIDUAL THERAPY SESSIONS, AS WELL AS DEVELOPING A SMALL GROUP OUTSIDE OF THESE SESSIONS TO MEET ON ISSUES. THE HOSPITAL COLLABORATIVELY WORKED WITH PARTNERS FOR PREVENTION TO DEVELOP A COMMUNITY-WIDE MESSAGE TO KEEP ALCOHOL OUT OF HOMES OR LOCKED SAFELY IN PLACES WHERE UNDERAGE INDIVIDUALS DID NOT HAVE DIRECT ACCESS TO CONSUMPTION. THIS MESSAGE WAS POSITIVELY RECEIVED BY MUCH OF OUR COMMUNITY.THE HOSPITAL HELD MANY VIRTUAL TALKS TO SPEAK ON OBESITY TREATMENT AND PREVENTION TO CONTINUOUSLY SUPPORT OUR COMMUNITY, EVEN THROUGHOUT THE PANDEMIC. WE DONATED TO MANY OF THE ORGANIZATIONS WE HAD IN PRIOR YEARS TO CONTINUE SUPPORTING AND ASSISTING THEM IN THEIR ORGANIZATIONAL EFFORTS HELP OUR COMMUNITY.ADDITIONALLY, RICHLAND HOSPITAL JOINED THE SOUTHWEST WISCONSIN COMMUNITY ACTION PROGRAM'S MENTAL HEALTH COALITION. THE AGING OF THE POPULATION IS SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE PERSONS IN THE AGE CATEGORIES THAT ARE GROWING FACE MORE CHALLENGES RELATED TO HEALTHCARE THAN YOUNGER POPULATIONS. IN THE OLDER POPULATION GROUPS, PERSONS VISIT PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS MORE FREQUENTLY AND HAVE HIGHER INCIDENT RATES OF HEART DISEASE, CANCER, AND RELATED ILLNESSES. THE ONSET OF CHRONIC DISEASES ARE HIGHER IN THIS AGE CATEGORY, E.G., ONSET OF DIABETES, COPD, OR HEART PROBLEMS, AND MUST BE MANAGED WITH ASSISTANCE FROM THE HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PERSON'S LIFE. IMPORTANT TO NOTE IS THAT AS A PERSON AGES, TRAVEL BECOMES MORE CHALLENGING, SO THE ABILITY TO GET AS MUCH OF THEIR HEALTHCARE NEEDS MET LOCALLY GROWS IN IMPORTANCE. HAVING VISITING SPECIALISTS, FOR EXAMPLE, ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR A TRIP TO A MAJOR MEDICAL CENTER FOR MANY. IN ADDITION, IT ENSURES THAT PERSONS GET THE CARE THAT THEY NEED.SENIOR LIFE SOLUTIONS WHICH HAS BEEN WELL RECEIVED BY PATIENTS AND PHYSICIANS ALIKE WAS CONTINUED IN 2020. THE HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO MORE FULLY DEVELOP THE ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD SYSTEM (EHR) WITH ONE OF THE MAIN GOALS BEING IMPROVED ACCESS TO STRONG CLINICAL DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING PATIENT MEDICAL HISTORIES AS A MEANS TO SUPPORT A MORE EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE PATIENT EXPERIENCE. TRAINING OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO USE AND ACCESS THEIR PERSONAL HEALTH INFORMATION THROUGH THE EHR PORTAL IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE HOSPITAL'S WORK TO IMPROVE OUR PATIENT'S HEALTH STATUS THROUGH ACCESS AND INFORMATION. IN TURN, THE ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD SYSTEM PROVIDES FOR A MORE COMPLETE MEDICAL HISTORY SHOULD THAT PATIENT REQUIRE TREATMENT AT OTHER HEALTHCARE FACILITIES. IN RESPONSE TO INCREASED PATIENT DEMANDS FOR ACCESS TO PRIMARY AMBULATORY CLINIC CARE, THE HOSPITAL COMPLETED CONSTRUCTION OF A REPLACEMENT CLINIC FACILITY IN MUSCODA, WISCONSIN IN 2012 AS A MEANS TO BETTER SERVE THE NEEDS OF THE PATIENTS IN MUSCODA AND THE SURROUNDING RURAL COMMUNITIES.
THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC.	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 13H: IN ADDITION TO THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES, THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C:	ADDITIONALLY, THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. MAY REFER TO OR RELY ON EXTERNAL SOURCES AND/OR OTHER PROGRAM ENROLLMENT RESOURCES IN THE CASE OF PATIENTS LACKING DOCUMENTATION THAT SUPPORTS ELIGIBILITY OR INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCE. AT ITS SOLE DISCRETION, WHEN A PATIENT IS UNABLE TO PROVIDE NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION TO SUPPORT AN ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION, THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. MAY PROVIDE FREE OR DISCOUNTED SERVICES UNDER THIS PROGRAM WHEN PATIENT: - IS HOMELESS - IS ELIGIBLE FOR OTHER STATE OR LOCAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS THAT ARE UNFUNDED - IS ELIGIBLE FOR FOOD STAMPS OR SUBSIDIZED SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM - IS ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE CRIME VICTIMS ACT OR SEXUAL ASSAULT ACT - IS DECEASED, WITHOUT A SPOUSE, AND NO ESTATE HAS BEEN FILED WITH THE COURT SYSTEM WITHIN 12 MONTHS OF EXPIRATION OR AT THE TIME IT CAN BE DETERMINED PATIENT DOES NOT HAVE ASSETS REQUIRING THE FILING OF AN ESTATE. - RECEIVES A BANKRUPTCY DETERMINATION WITHIN THE SIX MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE APPLICATION DATE IF APPLICANT IS LOOKING FOR CONSIDERATION ON ANY ACTIVE ACCOUNT NOT DISCHARGED AS A PART OF THE BANKRUPTCY DETERMINATION. - VALID ADDRESS IS CONSIDERED LOW INCOME OR SUBSIDIZED HOUSING AND PATIENT AUTHORIZES THE APPLICABLE HOUSING AUTHORITY TO VALIDATE INCOME LEVEL DIRECTLY TO THE HOSPITAL.
PART I, LINE 6A:	THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. PREPARES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT ANNUALLY AND FILES IT WITH THE WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION (WHA). THE REPORT IS AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC ON WHA'S DATABASE AND WEBSITE.
PART I, LINE 7:	THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED ON FORM 990 IS BASED ON A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WHICH IS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE HOSPITAL'S TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES LESS THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS APPLIED AGAINST VARIOUS REVENUE AND EXPENSE CATEGORIES TO COMPUTE THE ESTIMATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE UNDER IRS SUGGESTED COSTING METHODS FOR THE FORM 990.
PART I, LINE 7G:	SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES AT THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. INCLUDES THE OPERATION OF THE HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM DEPARTMENT AND THE INTENSIVE CARE INPATIENT UNIT. THESE SERVICES ARE UNAVAILABLE TO MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY OTHER THAN THROUGH THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. AND ARE PRIMARILY UTILIZED FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES. THE EMERGENCY ROOM DEPARTMENT OPERATES 24-HOURS PER DAY, SEVEN DAYS PER WEEK AND IS STAFFED PRIMARILY BY BOARD CERTIFIED EMERGENCY ROOM PHYSICIANS. AS PART OF THE PATIENT SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY, THE HOSPITAL HAS DESIGNATED A PORTION OF ITS INPATIENT UNIT AS A CERTIFIED INTENSIVE CARE UNIT KNOWN AS THE "SPECIAL CARE UNIT." THIS UNIT REQUIRES A HIGHER ACUITY OF NURSING AND HAS DEDICATED STAFF TO PROVIDE THIS CARE TO PATIENTS. A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE ADMISSIONS TO THE UNIT COME FROM EMERGENCY ADMISSIONS TO THE HOSPITAL SO IT IS CONSIDERED A SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICE PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY BY THE HOSPITAL. IT IS THE GOAL OF THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY REGARDLESS OF THE PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY.
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES:	THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. IS ACCREDITED THROUGH THE JOINT COMMISSION ("TJC"). THE TJC IS AN ORGANIZATION THAT EVALUATES HOSPITAL PERFORMANCE STANDARDS, FOCUSING ON THE QUALITY OF HEALTHCARE. ACCREDITATION THROUGH THE JOINT COMMISSION IS RECOGNIZED NATIONWIDE AS A SYMBOL OF QUALITY, AS IT REQUIRES RIGOROUS PERFORMANCE STANDARDS. TO EARN AND MAINTAIN ACCREDITATION, THE HOSPITAL IS EVALUATED THROUGH AN UNANNOUNCED SURVEY PROCESS COVERING NEARLY 600 STANDARDS RELATED TO QUALITY PATIENT CARE, SAFETY, INFECTION CONTROL, AND ONGOING PERFORMANCE-IMPROVEMENT ACTIVITIES, AMONG OTHERS. ALL HOSPITALS SURVEYED BY THE JOINT COMMISSION ARE EVALUATED AGAINST THE SAME CRITERIA, REGARDLESS OF SIZE OR LOCATION.THE ACTIVITIES OF THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. ARE SUPPORTED LOCALLY BY A VOLUNTEER BOARD OF DIRECTORS WHICH OVERSEE THE OPERATIONS OF THE HOSPITAL. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS MADE UP OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS THAT RESIDE IN RICHLAND CENTER, WI, AND THE SURROUNDING AREA WHICH IS THE HOSPITAL'S PRIMARY PATIENT SERVICE AREA. THE HOSPITAL ALSO EXTENDS MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES TO A MAJORITY OF ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS IN THE COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREAS WHO WISH TO BETTER SERVE THEIR PATIENTS BY PROVIDING CARE AT THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC.ANY SURPLUSES IN OPERATIONS THAT ARE ACHIEVED BY THE HOSPITAL OPERATING IN AN EFFECTIVE MANNER AND CONTROLLING THE COST OF HEALTHCARE ARE PRIMARILY RESERVED FOR FUTURE BUILDING AND CAPITAL PURCHASE NEEDS. THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. RECOGNIZES THAT IT IS IMPORTANT TO SAVE THESE RESERVES DURING YEARS OF SURPLUS SO THAT IN TIMES OF ECONOMIC DOWNTURN, IF A LARGE CAPITAL ADDITION IS NEEDED, THE HOSPITAL WILL NOT HAVE TO PASS HIGHER COSTS ON TO MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. THE HOSPITAL FURTHER ACHIEVES ITS GOAL OF PROVIDING TRUE COMMUNITY SUPPORT BY PROVIDING CHARITY CARE AS DESCRIBED THROUGHOUT SCHEDULE H AND PROVIDING SERVICES TO MEMBERS OF OTHER PROGRAMS WHICH OFTEN REIMBURSE THE HOSPITAL BELOW THE COST OF PROVIDING THIS CARE SUCH AS CHAMPUS, TRICARE, AND THE WISCONSIN HEALTH INSURANCE RISK SHARING PROGRAM OR "HIRSP" (THE HIRSP PROGRAM REIMBURSES THE HOSPITAL AT RATES SIMILAR TO THE MEDICAID PROGRAM AND IS FOR PATIENTS THAT HAVE PRE-EXISTING ILLNESSES WHICH MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN INSURANCE FROM COMMERCIAL INSURANCE CARRIERS IN THE MARKETPLACE).
PART III, LINE 2:	THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED ON FORM 990 IS BASED ON A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO, WHICH IS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE HOSPITAL'S TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES, EXCLUDING THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT, DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS APPLIED AGAINST THE TOTAL CHARGES THAT ARE WRITTEN OFF DURING THE YEAR TO ESTIMATE THE COST OF CARE OF PATIENTS WHO HAVE ACCOUNTS THAT ARE DEEMED TO BE BAD DEBTS TO THE HOSPITAL. THE HOSPITAL ALSO RECOGNIZES THAT IT ALSO PROVIDES A DISCOUNT TO SELF-PAY OR UNINSURED PATIENTS. THESE AMOUNTS ARE EXCLUDED FROM GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RATIO AS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND APPROVED BY THE IRS FOR USE ON FORM 990. IF CONSIDERED, THESE ADDITIONAL WRITE-OFF AMOUNTS TO UNINSURED ACCOUNTS WOULD ALSO INCREASE THE ESTIMATED BAD DEBT EXPENSE AMOUNT ASSOCIATED WITH THESE UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS TO THE HOSPITAL.
PART III, LINE 3:	MANAGEMENT PROVIDES FOR PROBABLE UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS, PRIMARILY UNINSURED PATIENTS AND AMOUNTS PATIENTS ARE PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR, THROUGH A CHARGE TO OPERATIONS AND A CREDIT TO A VALUATION ALLOWANCE BASED ON ITS ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL COLLECTION LIKELIHOOD AND THE CURRENT STATUS OF INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS. BALANCES THAT ARE STILL OUTSTANDING AFTER THE HOSPITAL HAS USED REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE WRITTEN OFF THROUGH A CHARGE TO THE VALUATION ALLOWANCE AND CREDIT TO ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. MANY TIMES, PATIENTS DO NOT COMPLETE THE REQUIRED CHARITY CARE APPLICATION AND ARE TRANSFERRED TO COLLECTION SERVICES EVEN THOUGH THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES THIS INFORMATION TO ALL PATIENTS AND ASSISTS PATIENTS WITH THE APPLICATION. DUE TO NO RESPONSES FROM SOME PATIENTS, A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF BAD DEBTS COULD BE CONSIDERED AS CHARITY CARE.
PART III, LINE 4:	IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE HOSPITAL ANALYZES PAST RESULTS AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS DATA ABOUT THESE MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. SPECIFICALLY, FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, THE HOSPITAL ANALYZES CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS FOR EXPECTED UNCOLLECTIBLE DEDUCTIBLES AND COPAYMENTS ON ACCOUNTS FOR WHICH THE THIRD-PARTY PAYOR HAS NOT YET PAID, OR FOR PAYORS AND PATIENTS WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE HAVING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES THAT MAKE THE REALIZATION OF AMOUNTS DUE UNLIKELY. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS (WHICH INCLUDES BOTH PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE AND PATIENTS WITH DEDUCTIBLE AND COPAYMENT BALANCES DUE FOR WHICH THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE EXISTS FOR PART OF THE BILL), THE HOSPITAL RECORDS A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IN THE PERIOD OF SERVICE ON THE BASIS OF ITS PAST EXPERIENCE, WHICH INDICATES THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE STANDARD RATES (OR THE DISCOUNTED RATES, IF NEGOTIATED) AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT CONTAIN A SEPARATE FOOTNOTE REGARDING BAD DEBT EXPENSE.
PART III, LINE 8:	THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. IS DESIGNATED AS A CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL AND, AS SUCH, A PORTION OF ITS REVENUE IS PAID UNDER A COST REIMBURSEMENT SYSTEM. THE TOTAL MEDICARE REVENUE SHOWN BASED ON THE IRS 990 INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDES ONLY A PORTION OF THE TOTAL MEDICARE REVENUE OF THE HOSPITAL. THE AMOUNTS LISTED FOR MEDICARE DO NOT INCLUDE PHYSICIAN SERVICES FOR THE COVERAGE OF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, RADIOLOGIST SERVICES, AND SURGICAL ANESTHESIA SERVICES AT THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. PHYSICIAN COVERAGE IS REIMBURSED PRIMARILY ON FEE SCHEDULE REIMBURSEMENT AT RATES THAT ARE OFTEN BELOW THE COSTS OF CARING FOR PATIENTS. EMERGENCY SERVICES PROVIDED TO MEDICARE PATIENTS ARE VITAL TO THE WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITY AND, AS SUCH, THESE COSTS AND SHORTFALLS SHOULD ALSO BE CONSIDERED AS AN ADDITIONAL BENEFIT THAT THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. PROVIDES TO THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES. THE COSTING METHOD USED ABOVE FOR IRS FORM 990 COMPLIANCE REPORTING IS ALSO BASED ON AN OVERALL AVERAGE COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO AND DOES NOT CONSIDER MEDICARE NON-ALLOWABLE EXPENSES AS IT IS BASED ON TOTAL HOSPITAL PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE (IGNORING CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS ON FEE SCHEDULE REIMBURSED ITEMS AND NON-ALLOWABLE MEDICARE EXPENSES AS NOTED ABOVE) DIVIDED BY TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES LESS THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT EXPENSE. THIS RATIO IS THEN MULTIPLIED BY THE TOTAL MEDICARE SERVICES WHICH ARE REIMBURSED ON A COST METHODOLOGY EXCLUDING THE FEE SCHEDULE ITEMS LIKE PHYSICIAN SERVICES AND THE HOSPITAL WOULD SHOW A LARGE LOSS ON THESE SERVICES.WHETHER THERE IS A SHORTFALL OR SURPLUS FROM SERVICES PROVIDED TO MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, THESE PEOPLE, WHO ARE TYPICALLY ELDERLY MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, ARE AN UNDERSERVED POPULATION WHO EXPERIENCE ISSUES WITH ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE SERVICES. WITHOUT TAX-EXEMPT HOSPITALS PROVIDING MEDICARE PATIENT SERVICES, THE CENTERS FOR MEDICARE AND MEDICAID (CMS) WOULD BEAR THE BURDEN OF DIRECTLY PROVIDING SERVICES TO THE ELDERLY AND DISABLED MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY.
PART III, LINE 9B:	AT THE TIME OF PATIENT PRESENTATION, THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. WILL GATHER DEMOGRAPHIC AND INSURANCE INFORMATION THAT SUPPORTS THE TIMELY GENERATION AND RELEASE OF INSURANCE CLAIM FORMS AND /OR SELF-PAY STATEMENTS FOR SERVICES RENDERED. SUBJECT TO COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS POLICY, THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. MAY TAKE ANY AND ALL LEGAL ACTIONS, INCLUDING EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS (ECA'S), TO OBTAIN PAYMENT FOR MEDICAL SERVICES PROVIDED. THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. WILL NOT ENGAGE IN ECA'S, EITHER DIRECTLY OR BY ANY DEBT COLLECTIONS AGENCY OR OTHER PARTY TO WHICH THE HOSPITAL HAS REFERRED THE PATIENT'S DEBT, BEFORE REASONABLE EFFORTS ARE MADE TO DETERMINE WHETHER A RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL^) IS ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE COMMUNITY CARE PROGRAM, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. AT THE POINT A RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL REQUESTS A COMMUNITY CARE PROGRAM APPLICATION, THE ABOVE PROCEDURE WILL CEASE, AND THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE WILL TAKE EFFECT.UPON REQUEST, A COMMUNITY CARE PROGRAM APPLICATION WILL BE SENT/GIVEN TO THE RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL ALONG WITH A COVER LETTER DETAILING DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED TO PROCESS THE APPLICATION.APPLICATION MUST BE RETURNED WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THE RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL IS GIVEN OR MAILED THE APPLICATION.IF INCOMPLETE OR INSUFFICIENT DOCUMENTATION IS RECEIVED, RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL WILL BE NOTIFIED IN WRITING OF THE MISSING OR INCOMPLETE DOCUMENTATION. RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL WILL HAVE 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF THE NOTIFICATION TO PROVIDE THE MISSING INFORMATION OR DOCUMENTATION. FAILURE TO SUBMIT A COMPLETED APPLICATION OR SUBSEQUENTLY REQUESTED DOCUMENTATION WITHIN 30 DAYS MAY RESULT IN THE APPLICATION BEING DENIED, THE ACCOUNT BEING REFERRED TO AN EXTERNAL COLLECTION AGENCY AND ECA'S MAY COMMENCE. IF A COMMUNITY CARE PROGRAM APPLICATION IS RECEIVED AFTER AN ACCOUNT HAS BEEN REFERRED TO AN EXTERNAL COLLECTION AGENCY, BUT PRIOR TO 240 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF THE FIRST POST-DISCHARGE BILLING STATEMENT, THE EXTERNAL COLLECTION AGENCY WILL BE INSTRUCTED TO DISCONTINUE COLLECTION ACTIVITY UNTIL THE COMMUNITY CARE PROGRAM APPLICATION HAS BEEN PROCESSED. IF THE APPLICATION IS APPROVED FOR A FULL OR PARTIAL DISCOUNT, THE EXTERNAL COLLECTION AGENCY WILL BE NOTIFIED AND INSTRUCTED TO REMOVE OR REVERSE ANY ECAS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN TAKEN AND THE ACCOUNT WILL BE REFERRED BACK TO THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC.RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS APPROVED FOR A PARTIAL DISCOUNT WILL BE NOTIFIED IN WRITING OF THEIR APPROVAL FOR A PARTIAL DISCOUNT AND AN UPDATED STATEMENT REFLECTING THE NEW DISCOUNTED AMOUNT DUE WILL BE INCLUDED. RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS DETERMINED TO BE INELIGIBLE FOR A COMMUNITY CARE PROGRAM DISCOUNT WILL BE NOTIFIED IN WRITING OF THEIR INELIGIBILITY. THE NOTIFICATION TO RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS DETERMINED TO BE INELIGIBLE FOR A COMMUNITY CARE PROGRAM DISCOUNT OR ELIGIBLE FOR A PARTIAL DISCOUNT WILL INCLUDE A PAYMENT PLAN AGREEMENT. RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL WILL BE PROVIDED 30 DAYS TO COMPLETE AND RETURN THE PAYMENT PLAN AGREEMENT. FAILURE TO RETURN A COMPLETED PAYMENT PLAN AGREEMENT WITHIN 30 DAYS COULD RESULT IN THE ACCOUNT BEING REFERRED TO AN EXTERNAL COLLECTION AGENCY AND ECAS MAY COMMENCE. HOSPITAL AND EXTERNAL COLLECTION AGENCIES MAY ALSO TAKE ANY AND ALL LEGAL ACTIONS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO TELEPHONE CALLS, EMAILS, TEXTS, MAILING NOTICES AND SKIP TRACING TO OBTAIN PAYMENT FOR MEDICAL SERVICES PROVIDED.
PART VI, LINE 2:	IN ADDITION TO THE COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT CONDUCTED IN 2019, THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. ASSESSES THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY IT SERVES BY LOOKING AT LOCAL AND SURROUNDING COMMUNITY DEMOGRAPHICS TO DETERMINE THE SERVICES THAT ARE MOST NECESSARY IN ORDER TO FULFILL ITS MISSION. THE HOSPITAL ACTIVELY SEEKS INPUT FROM MEMBERS OF THE MEDICAL STAFF REGARDING EXISTING SERVICES, POTENTIAL NEED FOR EXPANDED SERVICES, AND THE POTENTIAL NEED FOR NEW SERVICE LINES NOT OFFERED LOCALLY. THE HOSPITAL MONITORS THE LOSS OF SPECIALTY PROVIDERS IN THE AREA AND, COLLABORATIVELY WORKING WITH OUR RURAL HEALTH CLINICS (RICHLAND HOSPITAL CLINIC, SPRING GREEN MEDICAL CENTER, AND MUSCODA HEALTH CENTER), PARTICIPATES IN A DETERMINATION OF WHETHER AND HOW THIS NEW NEED CAN BEST BE MET. A RECENT EXAMPLE WAS THE IMPENDING LOSS OF A GENERAL SURGEON DUE TO RETIREMENT. THE HOSPITAL ALSO REVIEWS HOSPITAL STATISTICS OF PATIENT VISITS TO DETERMINE WHAT TYPES OF SERVICES OFFERED BY THE HOSPITAL ARE BEING UTILIZED.
PART VI, LINE 3:	CONSISTENT WITH THE MISSION OF THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC., HEALTH-RELATED SERVICES ARE PROVIDED TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. THE HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE TO QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE IN NEED OF MEDICALLY NECESSARY TREATMENT EVEN IF THAT PERSON IS UNINSURED, UNDERINSURED, INELIGIBLE FOR OTHER GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS, OR UNABLE TO PAY BASED ON THEIR INDIVIDUAL FINANCIAL SITUATION. WHEN AN UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED PATIENT REQUESTS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND HAS AN ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME THAT IS AT OR BELOW 150% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, THEY ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A 100% DISCOUNT ON ANY PATIENT BALANCE. WHEN AN UNINSURED PATIENT'S ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME IS 151 TO 300% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, THEY ARE PROVIDED CARE AT THE AMOUNT GENERALLY BILLED OR LESS. FOR UNDERINSURED PATIENTS WITH AN ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME OF 151 TO 300%, THE AMOUNT PATIENT IS CHARGED AND RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING (CO-INSURANCE, DEDUCTIBLES, ETC.) AFTER APPLYING DEDUCTIONS, DISCOUNTS AND PAYMENTS APPLIED BY THE THIRD PARTY PAYER WILL NOT BE GREATER THAN THE AGB. TO BE ELIGIBLE UNDER THIS PROGRAM, PATIENTS MUST COOPERATE WITH THE HOSPITAL TO EXPLORE ALTERNATIVE MEANS OF ASSISTANCE AND IF NECESSARY, INCLUDING APPLICATION OR ACTIONS NEEDED TO SECURE COVERAGE BY MEDICARE, MEDICAID, AND THE MARKETPLACE. PATIENTS WILL BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE NECESSARY INFORMATION AND DOCUMENTATION WHEN APPLYING FOR A PROGRAM DISCOUNT, OR FOR OTHER PRIVATE OR PUBLIC PAYMENT PROGRAMS. THE FACILITY'S FINANCIAL COUNSELOR IS AVAILABLE TO ASSIST PATIENTS WITH THE APPLICATION PROCESS. APPLICATIONS AND ALL SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION IS REVIEWED BY THE FACILITY'S FINANCIAL COUNSELOR FOR ELIGIBILITY AND APPROVED BY THE PATIENT ACCOUNTING SUPERVISOR. FREE RADIOLOGY, LABORATORY, AND OTHER DIAGNOSTIC ANCILLARY SERVICES ARE ALSO PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO ARE REFERRED TO THE HOSPITAL BY THE RICHLAND CENTER FREE CLINIC. THE HOSPITAL ALSO OFFERS A 20% PROMPT PAY DISCOUNT FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS.THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC.

SOCIAL SERVICES AND BUSINESS OFFICE STAFF AT THE HOSPITAL ARE ALSO AVAILABLE TO PROVIDE INFORMATION TO PATIENTS ON OTHER GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS SUCH AS THE MEDICAID PROGRAM OR TO REFER PATIENTS TO PERSONNEL AT RICHLAND COUNTY OR OTHER STATE OF WISCONSIN OR COUNTY AGENCIES THAT MAY PROVIDE ACCESS TO CARE.
PART VI, LINE 4:	THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. IS LOCATED IN RICHLAND CENTER, WISCONSIN, WHICH IS A COMMUNITY OF APPROXIMATELY 5,000 PEOPLE AND IS LOCATED 50 MINUTES FROM MADISON, WISCONSIN. THE FACILITY OPERATES A 25-BED, ACUTE CARE CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL AND TWO RURAL HEALTH CLINICS LOCATED IN NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES. THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL OFFERS A WIDE VARIETY OF SERVICES IN ORDER TO FULFILL MANY OF THE NEEDS OF THE INDIVIDUALS IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. AMONG SERVICES PROVIDED ARE: DIAGNOSTIC CARE, 24-HOUR EMERGENCY ROOM, OBSTETRICS, REHABILITATION, SURGICAL CARE, AND DIABETES SELF-CARE PROGRAMS, ALONG WITH OTHER SPECIALTY SERVICES, WHICH INCLUDE: AUDIOLOGY, CARDIOLOGY, ORTHOPEDICS, CHEMOTHERAPY, CLINICAL SERVICES, AMONG OTHERS. CARE IS OFFERED TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF PAY SOURCE AND REGARDLESS OF A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY. THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL ARE DEFINED BY THE FOLLOWING ZIP CODES: 53506 - AVOCA53556 - LONE ROCK53518 - BLUE RIVER53573 - MUSCODA53581 - RICHLAND CENTER53588 - SPRING GREENTHEY ARE GEOGRAPHICALLY CONTIGUOUS COMMUNITIES. ACCORDING TO 2018 DATA PUBLISHED BY INTELLIMED, THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. HAD AN OVERALL INPATIENT MARKET SHARE OF 40.7 PERCENT AND OUTPATIENT MARKET SHARE OF 35.02 PERCENT IN THESE ZIP CODES. NO OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDER PROVIDING THE SAME SERVICES HAD A MARKET SHARE AS HIGH AS OR HIGHER THAN THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. (INTELLIMED COMBINES STATEWIDE HEALTHCARE DATA FROM WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION IN A WEB-BASED SUPPORT ENGINE THAT ALLOWS US TO ANALYZE OUR MARKET.)SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE OF THE MARKET AREA SERVED BY THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC. SERVES PERSONS WHO ARE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE POPULATION OF THE MARKET AREA. A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION SERVED IS ELDERLY; THIS IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT PERSONS 65 YEARS OF AGE AND OLDER ARE HOSPITALIZED AT NEARLY THREE TIMES THE OVERALL RATE. SOME THINGS TO NOTE RELATED TO PLANNING FOR MEETING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING:- THE OVERALL POPULATION OF THE MARKET AREA IS PROJECTED TO REMAIN VERY STABLE, WITH NEGLIGIBLE GROWTH OR DECLINE PROJECTED OVER THE NEXT FIVE YEARS.- THE RESIDENTS OF THE MARKET AREA ARE AGING SIGNIFICANTLY. THERE IS A PROJECTED 29.2% GROWTH IN THE POPULATION AGED 75 TO 79 AND A PROJECTED 14.0% GROWTH IN THE POPULATION AGED 80-84. THERE IS A CORRESPONDING 20.6% PROJECTED DECLINE IN THE 25 TO 29 YEAR OLD POPULATION, 15.2 PERCENT DECLINE IN THE 55-59 YEAR OLD POPULATION AND 12.6 PERCENT DECLINE IN 20 TO 24 YEAR OLD POPULATION.

THE HOSPITAL ALSO EXTENDS MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES TO A MAJORITY OF ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS IN THE COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREAS WHO WISH TO BETTER SERVE THEIR PATIENTS BY PROVIDING CARE AT THE RICHLAND HOSPITAL, INC.ANY SURPLUSES IN OPERATIONS THAT ARE ACHIEVED BY THE HOSPITAL OPERATING IN AN EFFECTIVE MANNER AND CONTROLLING THE COST OF HEALTHCARE ARE PRIMARILY RESERVED FOR FUTURE BUILDING AND CAPITAL PURCHASE NEEDS.
