Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART V, SECTION B FACILITY REPORTING GROUP A
FACILITY REPORTING GROUP A CONSISTS OF: - FACILITY 1: MELROSEWAKEFIELD HOSPITAL, - FACILITY 2: LAWRENCE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, - FACILITY 3: MELROSEWAKEFIELD BREAST HEALTH CENTER, - FACILITY 4: CHEM CENTER RADIATION & MRI, - FACILITY 5: HALLMARK HEALTH AT 101 MAIN, - FACILITY 6: HALLMARK OUTPAT DIAGNOSTIC & REHAB, - FACILITY 7: HEALTH IMAGE WOMAN'S IMAGING CENTER, - FACILITY 8: MELROSEWAKEFILED HOSPITAL REHAB SERVICES, - FACILITY 9: LAWRENCE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL PROGRAM, - FACILITY 10: COMMUNITY COUNSELING CENTER
FACILITY REPORTING GROUP - A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: MWHC SOUGHT COMMUNITY INPUT THROUGH KEY STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS, STAKEHOLDER SURVEYS, CONVENING A BREAKFAST MEETING WITH LOCAL BOARD OF HEALTH DIRECTORS AND LEADERS, AND THROUGH ON-LINE AND PAPER SURVEYS TRANSLATED INTO THE MOST COMMON LANGUAGES SPOKEN IN THE SERVICE AREA. IN ADDITION, LOCAL COMMUNITY COALITIONS, THE MWHC PATIENT FAMILY ADVISORY COUNCIL, AND COMMUNITY TEAMS WERE ALSO INVITED TO PARTICIPATE. OTHER LOCAL HEALTH SYSTEMS AND COLLABORATING AGENCIES PROVIDED INPUT INCLUDING BETH ISRAEL/LAHEY HEALTH, CAMBRIDGE HEALTH ALLIANCE, AND MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL HOSPITAL. A FULL LIST OF PARTNERS IS INCLUDED IN APPENDIX A ON PAGE 44 OF THE 2019 MWHC COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA). THE SECONDARY CHNA WORK INCLUDED COMMUNITY FOCUS GROUPS AND LISTENING SESSIONS.
FACILITY REPORTING GROUP - A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6A: MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE ALSO CONDUCTED A SECONDARY CHNA FOR EVERETT AND MALDEN (THE TWO LARGEST AND MOST DIVERSE CITIES IN OUR OVERLAPPING SERVICE AREA) IN CONJUNCTION WITH CAMBRIDGE HEALTH ALLIANCE AND MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL HOSPITAL. A SEPARATE REPORT WAS COMPLETED FOR THIS DEEPER REVIEW OF SOCIAL DETERMINANTS' IMPACT ON HEALTH. THIS REPORT IS ALSO POSTED/REFERENCED ON THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S WEBSITE AND THE WEBSITES FOR THE OTHER SYSTEMS: HTTPS://WWW.MASSGENERAL.ORG/COMMUNITY-HEALTH/CCHI/ASSESSMENTS/ AND HTTPS://WWW.CHALLIANCE.ORG/UPLOADS/PUBLIC/DOCUMENTS/COMMUNITY/EVERETT-MALDEN-CHNA-REPORT-FINAL.PDF.
FACILITY REPORTING GROUP - A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6B: MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE HIRED THE INSTITUTE FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH TO ASSIST US IN DEVELOPING BOTH CHNA REPORTS.
FACILITY REPORTING GROUP - A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE FOR COMMUNITY PROGRAMMING ARE LIMITED; HOWEVER, MWHC MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO USE THE FUNDS AVAILABLE TO CONTINUE TO SUPPORT UPSTREAM HEALTH IMPACTS AND PROGRAMS WITH DEMONSTRATED SUCCESS SUCH AS THOSE FUNDED BY STATE GRANTS AND SERVING VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. OTHER PROGRAMMING WILL BE IMPLEMENTED THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER LIKE-MINDED ORGANIZATIONS, AND AS DONATIONS, GRANTS, AND OTHER FUNDS ARE SECURED TO ENSURE THEIR SUSTAINABILITY. WHILE THE SYSTEM WILL TOUCH ON MOST OF THE HEALTH AND SOCIAL PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED IN THE 2019 CHNA, THE CHIP IS LIMITED IN BREADTH OF PROGRAMMING AND WILL NOT BE FULLY FUNDED TO ADDRESS ALL ASPECTS OF THE IDENTIFIED NEEDS. IN EACH YEAR OF THE THREE YEAR CHIP, THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE WILL BE REEVALUATED AND ALLOCATED AS NEEDED. SOME EXAMPLES ARE HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS; WHILE MWHC DOES NOT OFFER HOUSING SERVICES, IT IS AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF THE LOCAL HUNGER, HOMELESSNESS, AND HOUSING TASK FORCE, SCREENS FOR HOUSING INSECURITY IN PRIMARY CARE, PROVIDES HOUSING RESOURCES THROUGH COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS, AND INCLUDES AGENCIES SUCH AS HOUSING FAMILIES AND THE LOCAL CAP AGENCY ON OUR COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL. ANOTHER EXAMPLE IS FOR IDENTIFYING AND TREATING TUBERCULOSIS: IN PAST YEARS MWHC OFFERED A COLLABORATIVE CLINIC WITH OUR THREE LARGEST CITIES EVERETT, MALDEN, AND MEDFORD. TODAY WE REFER PATIENTS TO THE HIGHER ACUITY CLINIC AT CAMBRIDGE HEALTH ALLIANCE, WHICH IS ABLE TO PROVIDE MORE COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES TO PATIENTS IN OUR AREA. THROUGH OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS WE ARE SERVING THE IDENTIFIED NEEDS AS A TEAM.
FACILITY REPORTING GROUP - A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 20A: MWHC DOES NOT PERFORM ECA EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS. AND WE DO NOT REPORT TO THE CREDIT AGENCIES OR BUREAUS.
FACILITY REPORTING GROUP - A PART V, SECTION B, LINE 20D: PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATIONS WERE DEEMED IMPRACTICAL FOR OUR PURPOSES BECAUSE THEY: DO NOT PROVIDE 10 DAY RETROACTIVE COVERAGE AVAILABLE THROUGH TRADITIONAL MH APPLICATIONS; END ON THE LAST DAY OF THE MONTH FOLLOWING APPLICATION; REQUIRE THAT THE PATIENT COMPLETE THE TRADITIONAL APPLICATION WITHIN 30 DAYS; FAXING AFTER WORKING HOURS/WEEKENDS CHANGE EFFECTIVE DATE TO THE FOLLOWING BUSINESS DAY THUS NULLIFYING OUR EFFORTS TO COVER A SPECIFIC DATE.

Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C: IN ADDITION TO THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINE, MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE REVIEWS, AMONG OTHER ITEMS, AN INDIVIDUAL'S HOUSEHOLD INCOME, ASSETS, FAMILY SIZE, EXPENSES, MEDICAL NEEDS, CURRENT INSURANCE COVERAGE, CITIZENSHIP AND RESIDENCY WHEN EVALUATING A PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AS PART OF ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. FOR MASSACHUSETTS RESIDENTS, THE APPLICABLE INFORMATION IS SUBMITTED TO THE STATE AS PART OF THE APPLICATION PROCESS FOR PUBLIC PROGRAM ASSISTANCE TO DETERMINE COVERAGE FOR SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE INDIVIDUAL.MASSACHUSETTS RESIDENTS ARE INFORMED, ENCOURAGED AND ASSISTED IN APPLYING FOR STATE SPONSORED HEALTH INSURANCE PLANS THAT MAY RESULT IN FULL COVERAGE PROSPECTIVELY AND IN THE CASE OF MASSHEALTH, RETROACTIVELY. ONCE THE PATIENT HAS BEEN INSURED, FINANCIAL COUNSELORS EVALUATE INDIVIDUAL SITUATIONS FOR POSSIBLE APPLICATION FOR HARDSHIP THROUGH THE HEALTH SAFETY NET. IF APPROVED, HARDSHIP APPLICATIONS MAY COVER SERVICES THAT DATE BACK ONE YEAR FROM THE DATE OF APPLICATION.IF OR WHEN ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED MECHANISMS FAIL OR DO NOT OFFER ADEQUATE RELIEF TO THE PATIENT GIVEN HIS/HER INDIVIDUAL NEEDS, THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION (FAP) APPLICATION MAY BE COMPLETED; AND IF APPROVED, MAY ALSO OFFER FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE BASED ON THE INDIVIDUAL'S HOUSEHOLD INCOME, AS DETERMINED BY FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES (FPL); ASSETS, FAMILY SIZE, EXPENSES, MEDICAL NEEDS, AMOUNT OF MEDICAL DEBT, CURRENT INSURANCE COVERAGE, CITIZENSHIP AND MA RESIDENCY. WHEN A FAP DETERMINATION DOES NOT COVER THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE OUTSTANDING BILLS, THE PATIENT WILL BE CONTACTED TO MAKE SUITABLE PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS. FOR CLARIFICATION PURPOSES, IT MUST BE NOTED THAT THE FAP APPLICATION IS NOT INTENDED FOR, NOR DOES IT COVER BALANCES AFTER INSURANCE PAYMENTS SUCH AS COPAYS, COINSURANCES AND/OR DEDUCTIBLES; THESE REMAIN THE PATIENT'S RESPONSIBILITY UNLESS THE COINSURANCE AND/OR DEDUCTIBLE IS GREATER THAN 20% OF THE PATIENTS HOUSEHOLD INCOME AND THEREFORE CONSTITUTES A HARDSHIP ELIGIBLE FOR A FAP APPLICATION.
PART I, LINE 7: CHARITY CARE COSTS FROM WORKSHEETS 1 & 2 AND UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID FROM WORKSHEET 3 AND HEALTH PROFESSIONS EDUCATION FROM WORKSHEET 5 WERE APPLIED TO ALL PATIENT SEGMENTS. (COST TO CHARGE RATIO).
PART I, QUESTION 6A: IN ADDITION TO THE FORM 990 SCHEDULE H, MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE IS PREPARING A FY 2020 COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORT TO THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS, IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE MA ATTORNEY GENERAL (THE "MA AGO") FOR REPORTING COMMUNITY BENEFITS. THIS YEAR THE FILING HAS BEEN DELAYED UNTIL JULY 1, 2021 DUE TO THE COVID- 19 PANDEMIC. THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROCESS AND ACTIVITIES, IS ALSO AVAILABLE ONLINE, WITH THE CHNA AND THE 2017-2019 AND 2020-2022 COMMUNITY BENEFITS IMPLEMENTATION PLANS (CHIP) WHICH ARE ALSO AVAILABLE IN PRINT VERSIONS AT EACH HOSPITAL CAMPUS AND AT OTHER COMMUNITY SITES IN THE SERVICE AREA.MWHC PROMOTES COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROGRAMS THROUGH NEWS RELEASES, CALENDAR POSTINGS, FACEBOOK, TWITTER, EMAIL MESSAGING, CONSTANT CONTACT, AND BULLETINS FOR LOCAL HOUSE OF WORSHIP AND SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS, AND LOCAL CABLE ACCESS TELEVISION STATIONS. FLYERS AND POSTCARDS ARE ALSO DISSEMINATED WIDELY IN THE COMMUNITY TO NOTIFY RESIDENTS OF UPCOMING COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROGRAMS AND SERVICES. THE ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORT IS DISTRIBUTED TO THE MWHC BOARD OF TRUSTEES, LEADERS, LOCAL LEGISLATORS AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THE REPORT IS ALSO POSTED ON THE MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE WEBSITE FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC TO VIEW AND COMMENT. THIS YEAR, ONE OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROGRAMS IS FEATURED IN THE HEALTH SYSTEMS' ANNUAL REPORT.
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: AS PART OF ITS EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH STATUS OF ITS CORE COMMUNITIES, MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE (MWHC) PARTICIPATES IN A VARIETY OF BROAD-BASED COMMUNITY COALITIONS AND INITIATIVES THAT WORK TOWARDS ADDRESSING THE SPECIFIC AND GENERAL HEALTH NEEDS IN THESE CITIES AND TOWNS. A SAMPLE OF CURRENT ACTIVITIES INCLUDE: THE JOINT COMMITTEE FOR CHILDREN'S HEALTHCARE IN EVERETT; THE MALDEN'S PROMISE COALITION; MEDFORD HEALTH MATTERS; LOCAL COUNCILS ON AGING; THE MELROSE COMMUNITY COALITION; LOCAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION COALITIONS IN MALDEN, MELROSE, MEDFORD, READING, STONEHAM, AND WAKEFIELD; AS WELL AS THE REGIONAL MASSACHUSETTS OPIOID ABUSE PREVENTION COLLABORATE (MOAPC) AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION COLLABORATIVE (SAPC), BOTH PROGRAMS OF THE MYSTIC VALLEY PUBLIC HEALTH COALITION. MWHC ALSO FORMALLY PARTNERS WITH THE NORTH SUBURBAN CHILD AND FAMILY RESOURCE NETWORK, SERVING LYNNFIELD, MALDEN, MELROSE, NORTH READING, READING, STONEHAM, WAKEFIELD, AND WINCHESTER; AND THE EVERETT, AND MEDFORD COORDINATED FAMILY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT (CFCE) GRANT PROGRAMS FUNDED BY THE MA DEPARTMENT OF EARLY EDUCATION AND CARE; THE TRI-CITY HUNGER NETWORK AND A HOST OF OTHER COMMUNITY-BASED AND GUIDED COALITIONS AND INITIATIVES. A SPECIFIC EXAMPLE OF THIS COMMUNITY BUILDING INCLUDES MWHC'S REPRESENTATION ON THE MELROSE ALLIANCE AGAINST VIOLENCE (MAAV). MAAV IS A NON-PROFIT, COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATION THAT FOCUSES ON OUTREACH, EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY COLLABORATION IN ORDER TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE PROBLEMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT IN MELROSE. WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE MELROSE POLICE DEPARTMENT, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF MAAV INCLUDES A REPRESENTATIVE FROM MWHC, AS WELL AS MEMBERS FROM THE MELROSE SCHOOLS, CLERGY, HEALTH DEPARTMENT, STUDENTS, AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS AT LARGE. MELROSE-WAKEFIELD HOSPITAL IS A FOUNDING MEMBER OF THIS IMPORTANT COMMUNITY-BASED AGENCY.IN ADDITION, MWHC HAS CONTINUED TO CONVENE A NUMBER OF COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAMS TO ASSIST WITH THE COLLECTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS INFORMATION TO OPTIMIZE THE BENEFITS OF COMMUNITY HEALTH EDUCATION AND SCREENINGS. THE TEAMS HAVE SPONSORED AND PARTICIPATED IN EVENTS RANGING FROM INFORMAL (PLANNING HEALTH EVENTS AND SCREENINGS) TO MORE FORMAL (PARTICIPATION ON HEALTHY MELROSE, STONEHAM SUMMER SAFETY DAY, AND THE MOBILE FOOD MARKET IN MALDEN), OFFERING MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITIES TO INTERACT WITH A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO FORM TRUSTING RELATIONSHIPS, LISTEN TO THE VOICES OF INDIVIDUAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS, AND FOSTER THE DEVELOPMENT OF RESILIENCE WITHIN EACH COMMUNITY. AS MWHC BEGINS THE FIRST YEAR OF ITS COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN FOR 2020-2022, IT CONTINUES TO UTILIZE THE COLLECTIVE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TEAM CAPTAINS. THE TEAM'S ORGANIZING CHARTER GUIDES THE MEMBERSHIP TOWARD SALIENT ACTIVITIES. RELEVANT HEALTH DATA AND THE IDENTIFIED TARGET POPULATION LISTS ARE PROVIDED TO EACH TEAM CAPTAIN TO ASSIST THEM IN PLANNING PROGRAMS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. CURRENTLY, THERE ARE SIX (6) COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAMS NAMED FOR MALDEN/EVERETT, MEDFORD, MELROSE, WAKEFIELD, READING/NORTH READING AND STONEHAM. SAUGUS DID NOT HAVE A TEAM IN 2018, BUT WAS SERVED BY THE MWHC COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT. THE TEAMS CONTINUOUSLY SOLICIT INPUT FROM COMMUNITY LEADERS INCLUDING SUPERINTENDENTS OF SCHOOLS, STATE REPRESENTATIVES, BUSINESS LEADERS, FIRE AND POLICE OFFICIALS AND LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. MANY EMPLOYEES SERVING ON TEAMS ALSO PARTICIPATE IN OTHER COMMUNITY GROUPS AND CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS. MORE THAN 40 EMPLOYEES, VOLUNTEERS, AND PHYSICIANS WERE INVOLVED IN TEAM-SPONSORED EVENTS IN FISCAL YEAR 2020/TAX YEAR 2019 (FY 2020/TY 2019).THE COMMUNITY TEAM EFFORTS HAVE BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED BY FOUR AREA CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE, OTHER CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS, THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION, AND THE MASSACHUSETTS HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION. UNFORTUNATELY, DUE TO THE WORLDWIDE COVID 19 PANDEMIC, MOST COMMUNITY-BASED ACTIVITIES WERE EITHER SUSPENDED OR MOVED TO A REMOTE FORMAT.
PART III, LINE 2: MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE, INC. DEVELOPED A COST TO CHARGE RATIO AND APPLIED IT TO THE BAD DEBT ACCOUNT CHARGES THAT WERE ACTUALLY WRITTEN OFF.
PART III, LINE 4: THE FOLLOWING IS FROM THE WELLFORCE, INC. AND CONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES (THE SYSTEM) AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, OF WHICH MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE, INC. IS INCLUDED, RELATING TO CHARITY CARE AND BAD DEBT EXPENSE:2020 CHARITY CARE AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOOTNOTECHARITY CARE - THE SYSTEM'S COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY SERVICE IS EVIDENCED BY SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE POOR AND BENEFITS PROVIDED TO THE PATIENTS THAT IT SERVES. THE SYSTEM PROVIDES HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY. THESE PATIENTS MAY RECEIVE FULL ASSISTANCE OR MAY BE SUBJECT TO PARTIAL LIABILITY BASED ON INCOME AND FAMILY SIZE. BECAUSE THE SYSTEM DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, SUCH AMOUNTS ARE NOT REPORTED AS NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE.THE SYSTEM PROVIDED CHARITY CARE, BASED ON CHARGES FORGONE AND THE ESTIMATED COST OF THE CHARITY CARE PROVIDED AMOUNTED TO $36,402K AND $16,237K, FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 AND $42,553K AND $16,904K FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019, RESPECTIVELY. THE ESTIMATED COST OF CHARITY CARE IS BASED ON THE RELATIONSHIP OF PATIENT CARE SERVICE CHARGES TO THE RELATED COSTS APPLIED TO CHARITY CARE CHARGES RECOGNIZED DURING THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 AND 2019.ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE REDUCED BY AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE SYSTEM ANALYZES ITS PAST HISTORY AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYER SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS DATA ABOUT THESE MAJOR PAYER SOURCES OF REVENUE IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, THE SYSTEM ANALYZES CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND HISTORIC PAYMENT TRENDS AND RECORDS ESTIMATED CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCES. THE SYSTEM RECORDS A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS 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 BILLS FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE STANDARD RATES AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS.MWHC'S ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS FOR ALL PATIENTS WAS 31% OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 AND 25% OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2019. IN ADDITION, THE SYSTEM'S WRITE-OFFS, NET OF RECOVERIES, WERE $7,635K AND $8,904K, RESPECTIVELY, FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 AND 2019. THE CHANGES WERE A RESULT OF MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW OF HISTORICAL TRENDS IN UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND DETERMINATION OF RESERVES, INCLUDING THE IMPACT OF THE PROVISIONS OF THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT.THE SYSTEM HAS NOT CHANGED ITS CHARITY CARE OR UNINSURED DISCOUNT POLICIES DURING 2020. THE SYSTEM DOES NOT MAINTAIN A MATERIAL ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS FROM THIRD-PARTY PAYERS, NOR DID IT HAVE SIGNIFICANT BAD DEBT WRITE-OFFS FROM THIRD-PARTY PAYERS.HEALTH SAFETY NET FUND (HSN) - THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS (THE "COMMONWEALTH") OPERATES THE HSN, WHICH WAS CREATED BY THE COMMONWEALTH'S HEALTH CARE REFORM ACT TO REPLACE THE STATE'S UNCOMPENSATED CARE POOL. THE HSN ALLOCATES THE COST OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE AMONG THE HOSPITALS IN THE COMMONWEALTH. HOSPITALS HAVE BEEN ASSESSED A UNIFORM ALLOWANCE BASED ON ESTIMATES OF THE STATEWIDE COST OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE AND REIMBURSED FOR A PORTION OF THE COST OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE, SUBJECT TO CERTAIN LIMITATIONS. REIMBURSABLE UNCOMPENSATED CARE INCLUDES NET CHARITY CARE AND CERTAIN UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS RELATED TO EMERGENCY SERVICES. HOSPITALS' RECOVERIES FROM THE HSN ARE BASED ON A CLAIMS-BASED PAYMENT METHOD THAT USES MEDICARE PRINCIPLES. REIMBURSEMENT FROM THE HSN FOR UNCOMPENSATED CARE IS RECORDED IN NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE IN THE CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS. THE COMMONWEALTH HAS DETERMINED FINAL SETTLEMENTS WITH RESPECT TO THE HSN FOR ALL YEARS PRIOR TO 2014.COMMUNITY BENEFIT - IN FURTHERING ITS CHARITABLE PURPOSE, THE SYSTEM PROVIDES A WIDE VARIETY OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY IN ORDER TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO APPROPRIATE CARE FOR POPULATIONS IN NEED. THE SYSTEM HAS DEVELOPED A FORMAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT IMPLEMENTATION PLAN THAT RESPONDS TO THE COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT OF HEALTH CARE NEEDS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN SUPPORTS SERVICES THAT TARGET NOT ONLY THE GENERAL POPULATION IN THE SYSTEM'S SERVICE AREA, BUT ALSO PARTICULAR POPULATIONS WITH SPECIAL HEALTH CARE NEEDS, INCLUDING THE POOR, ELDERLY, CHILDREN, AND MINORITY POPULATIONS. SUPPORTED SERVICES INCLUDE VARIOUS DIRECT CARE PROGRAMS, HEALTH SCREENING, HEALTH EDUCATION AND SUPPORT GROUPS OPERATED IN THE SYSTEM'S SERVICE AREA. THE SYSTEM WORKS ACTIVELY WITH OTHER AREA SERVICE PROVIDERS TO FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN EFFECTIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH NETWORK.

PART VI, LINE 2: MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT HOSPITAL THAT OPERATES TO FURTHER THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE HEALTH STATUS OF THE COMMUNITIES THAT WE SERVE THROUGH THE DELIVERY OF HEALTHCARE SERVICES AND EDUCATION. THIS EFFORT IS ACHIEVED BY:-INVESTING FUNDS INTO COMMUNITIES THROUGH EVIDENCE-BASED AND EVIDENCE-INFORMED PROGRAMS AND SERVICES, INCLUDING THOSE BASED ON THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH.-MAKING SURE THAT CARE IS AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE - REGARDLESS OF THE ABILITY TO PAY.-USING COMPASSION AS A CORNERSTONE IN IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITIES.-ATTENDING TO THE NEEDS OF PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS BY ADDRESSING THE NEEDS OF THE WHOLE PERSON NOT JUST AS A FACTOR OF THEIR DISEASE OR A DIAGNOSIS.-PROVIDING A RANGE OF SPECIAL BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS PROGRAMS TO MANAGE CARE FOR PERSONS WITH CHRONIC DISEASES, HEALTH EDUCATION AND DISEASE PREVENTION INITIATIVES, PROGRAMS FOR FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN, OUTREACH FOR THE ELDERLY, AND CARE FOR PERSONS OF COLOR, IMMIGRANTS, OR THOSE WHO ARE POOR OR UNINSURED.- ACTING AS A CATALYST, PARTICIPANT, AND LEADER IN IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY THROUGH LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS SUCH AS WITH MALDEN OVERCOMING ADDICTION, MEDFORD HEALTH MATTERS, AND FOOD SECURITY TASKS FORCES BOTH REGIONALLY AND LOCALLY.-OFFERING SPACE AND OTHER IN-KIND SERVICES TO AGENCIES SUCH AS ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, PORTAL TO HOPE, AND MANY OTHERS WHOSE PROGRAMS ALIGN WITH THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S HEALTH PRIORITIES.IN COMPLIANCE WITH IRS GUIDELINES, A YEAR-LONG PROCESS TO DEVELOP A FORMAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) WAS COMPLETED BY MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE (FORMERLY HALLMARK HEALTH SYSTEM, INC.) IN AUGUST 2019, IN COLLABORATION WITH THE INSTITUTE FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH (ICH), A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION RECOGNIZED FOR COMMUNITY-BASED PARTICIPATORY RESEARCH, ASSESSMENT, AND DISSEMINATION. THIS PROCESS INCLUDED A REVIEW OF REPUTABLE PUBLIC HEALTH, SOCIO-ECONOMIC, AND FOUNDATION DATA; INPUT FROM THE MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL, COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAMS, PATIENT/FAMILY ADVISORY COUNCIL, LOCAL COMMUNITY COALITIONS, AND COMMUNITY RESIDENTS. STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS AND SURVEYS, COMMUNITY SURVEYS AND COMMUNITY FORUMS WERE ALSO COMPLETED. SOME OF THE COMMUNITY FORUMS WERE HELD IN COLLABORATION WITH OTHER HEALTH SYSTEMS SERVING THE AREA SUCH AS BETH ISRAEL/LAHEY HEALTH, CAMBRIDGE HEALTH ALLIANCE, THE LOCAL SAFETY NET HEALTH SYSTEM, AND MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL HOSPITAL. IN ADDITION, CAMBRIDGE HEALTH ALLIANCE, MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL HOSPITAL, AND MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE COMPLETED AN ADDITIONAL CHNA FOCUSED ON DETERMINING THE SOCIAL DETERMINANT NEEDS IN EVERETT AND MALDEN. ALL SYSTEMS SERVE THESE CITIES WHICH HAS SOME OF THE LARGEST AND MOST DIVERSE COMMUNITIES IN OUR SERVICE AREA.REFLECTING IRS REQUIREMENTS, AND TO FOSTER TRANSPARENCY, THE ENTIRE CHNA AND PRIOR CHNA AS WELL AS THE EVERETT/MALDEN REPORT ARE POSTED ON THE MWHC WEBSITE AND IN PRINTED VERSIONS AT EACH HOSPITAL CAMPUS AND OTHER KEY EASILY ACCESSIBLE LOCATIONS IN EACH COMMUNITY IN THE CATCHMENT AREA. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CHIP) FOR 2020-2022 IS ALSO POSTED ON MWHC'S WEBSITE. THIS CHIP WAS BOARD APPROVED IN FEBRUARY 2020. THE BOARD APPROVED CHIPS AND CHNA'S ARE PLACED ON THE SYSTEM'S WEBSITE AT HTTPS://WWW.MELROSEWAKEFIELD.ORG/IN-THE-COMMUNITY/COMMUNITY-BENEFITS/COMMUNITY-BENEFITS-PROGRAMS/. PAPER COPIES OF THE REPORTS ARE LOCATED CENTRALLY IN EACH COMMUNITY SERVED AS WELL.DUE TO THE COVID-19 GLOBAL PANDEMIC, MANY OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROGRAMMING WERE PAUSED OR WERE RUNNING IN A DIFFERENT CAPACITY, SUCH AS REMOTE, AS OF THE END OF MARCH 2020. THESE PROGRAMS WILL BEGIN AGAIN ONCE THE PANDEMIC HAS ENDED AND IT IS SAFE TO RESUME IN-PERSON ACTIVITIES. MWHC IS CURRENTLY RUNNING THE PROGRAMS LISTED ON OUR WEBSITE. DESPITE THE CHANGES IN SERVICES, THE SYSTEM WILL TOUCH ON THE MAJORITY OF THE HEALTH AND SOCIAL PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED IN THE 2020-2022 CHNA. THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL (CBAC) UNDERSTANDS AND APPROVES THE CHANGES TO THE CHIP. THE CBAC VOTED TO AMEND THE CHIP ON AUGUST 20, 2020. IN FISCAL YEAR 2020, THE CHIP WAS AMENDED TO REFLECT THESE CHANGES. THE CHANGES ARE POSTED ON THE HEALTH SYSTEMS' WEBSITE.ONGOING MONITORING OF THE CHNA AND ITS IDENTIFIED HEALTH PRIORITIES IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL (CBAC). AS OF THE END OF FY 2020/TY 2019, THE MWHC COUNCIL INCLUDED: A TRUSTEE OF MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE; CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER; A MWHC EMPLOYED PHYSICIAN; FISCAL CONTROLLER; DIRECTOR, COMMUNITY SERVICES; DIRECTOR, CASE MANAGEMENT; MANAGER, CENTRAL SCHEDULING, INSURANCE COORDINATION, AND INTERPRETER SERVICES; MANAGER, COMMUNITY BENEFITS AND OPERATIONS; THE CHIEF COMPLIANCE OFFICER OF MWHC; AND 16 COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES.THE CBAC PROVIDES OVERSIGHT FOR THE CHNA, AND THE PROCESSES FOR RECOGNIZING CURRENT AND EMERGING HEALTH NEEDS IN THE COMMUNITY, AS WELL AS DEVELOPING A MULTI-YEAR COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION/IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CHIP) TO RESPOND TO THESE NEEDS. THE CBAC MEETS SIX TIMES PER YEAR TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH THE CHIP, REVIEW PROGRAM OUTCOMES, DISCUSS IMPORTANT COMMUNITY HEALTH ISSUES, AND OFFER RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES RELATED TO COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AND DISPARITIES. THE COUNCIL IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON-LINE TO ADDRESS ANY ISSUES THAT MIGHT ARISE BETWEEN SCHEDULED MEETING TIMES. THE CBAC APPROVES ANY AND ALL AMENDMENTS TO THE CHIP RESULTING FROM EMERGING HEALTH ISSUES OR UNPLANNED CHANGES IN CAPACITY, BUT SIGNIFICANT AMENDMENTS ALSO RECEIVE BOARD APPROVAL.THE COUNCIL ALSO ENGAGES NEW MEMBERS FROM THE COMMUNITIES SERVED TO JOIN THE GROUP, PRIORITIZING CANDIDATES WHO CAN ASSIST THE CBAC AND MWHC TO BETTER UNDERSTAND COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AND BARRIERS TO ACCESS. THE COUNCIL IS CURRENTLY COMPRISED OF 25 MEMBERS.THE COUNCIL REPORTS TO THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND THE FULL BOARD IS RESPONSIBLE FOR FINAL APPROVAL ON THE CHNA, CHIP, AND OTHER MATTERS OF IMPORTANCE SUCH AS REVIEWING COUNCIL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SIGNIFICANT AMENDMENTS TO THE COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION/IMPROVEMENT PLAN.MWHC ALSO ACTIVELY PARTICIPATES WITH THE COMMUNITY THROUGH ITS COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAMS, SOLICITING INPUT FROM KEY COMMUNITY LEADERS, INCLUDING SUPERINTENDENTS OF SCHOOLS, STATE REPRESENTATIVES, BUSINESS LEADERS, FIRE AND POLICE PERSONNEL AND LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. ADDITIONAL APPROACHES INCLUDE WORK AS MEMBERS OF COMMUNITY COALITIONS AND WITH THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NETWORK AREAS (CHNA 15 AND 16) DESIGNATED BY THE MA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH. THESE STRATEGIES HAVE PROVEN EFFECTIVE IN GAINING VITAL PERSPECTIVE AROUND THE HEALTH NEEDS OF LOCAL RESIDENTS, AND IN TAILORING OUTREACH MESSAGES AND PROGRAMMING BASED ON WHAT CONSTITUENCIES AND COMMUNITIES VALUE MOST. WHILE CHNA 16 IS NO LONGER VERY ACTIVE, THE MEMBERS OF THE CHNA ARE STILL CLOSELY ALIGNED WITH MWHC.(COMMUNITY TEAMS FUNCTIONS ARE FURTHER EXPLAINED IN THE DESCRIPTION OF COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES IN PART II.)ANOTHER WAY THAT MWHC ASSESSED NEEDS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY IS THROUGH THE PATIENT/FAMILY ADVISORY COUNCIL (PFAC). THIS COUNCIL WAS FORMED TO OBTAIN FEEDBACK AND IDEAS FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS ON HOW THE HOSPITALS CAN BE MORE RECEPTIVE TO THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF COMMUNITY RESIDENTS, ESPECIALLY THOSE OF DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS, AND TO PROMOTE THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF PATIENT-CENTERED SERVICES BY FOSTERING A STRONG PARTNERSHIP THROUGH OUTREACH ACTIVITIES WITH COMMUNITY RESIDENTS. THE PFAC COUNCIL OFTEN ASSISTS MWHC STAFF BY PROVIDING INPUT INTO THE PLANNING OF FUTURE COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES AND INITIATIVES.(SEE CONTINUATION LATER)
PART VI, LINE 3: MASSACHUSETTS HOSPITALS AND MWHC PROVIDE PATIENTS WITH INFORMATION ABOUT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS THROUGH THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS OR THROUGH THE HOSPITAL'S OWN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AS OUTLINED IN THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND THE CREDIT AND COLLECTION POLICY OF MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE AND AT THE MELROSEWAKEFIELD HEALTHCARE WEBSITE HTTP://WWW.MELROSEWAKEFIELDHEALTHCARE.ORG. FOR THOSE PATIENTS THAT REQUEST SUCH ASSISTANCE MWHC'S CERTIFIED FINANCIAL COUNSELORS ASSIST PATIENTS BY SCREENING THEM FOR ELIGIBILITY IN AVAILABLE PUBLIC ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS OR THE MWHC'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THIS INFORMATION IS WIDELY SHARED WITH ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTING THE MOST UNDERSERVED RESIDENTS IN THE COMMUNITY SUCH AS THE LOCAL POVERTY AGENCY, ACTION FOR BOSTON COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT (ABCD) A COMMUNITY ACTION PROGRAM (CAP), THE JOINT COMMITTEE FOR CHILDREN'S HEALTH CARE IN EVERETT, SOUTH COVE, AND EAST BOSTON NEIGHBORHOOD HEALTH CENTERS AND MANY OTHERS.MWHC FINANCIAL COUNSELORS PROVIDED 24,824 INTERACTIONS WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND COMPLETED APPLICATIONS FOR INDIVIDUALS IN THE STATE HEALTH PROGRAMS; SUCH AS MASS HEALTH, HEALTH CONNECTOR CHILDREN'S MEDICAL SECURITY PLAN AND THE HEALTH SAFETY NET. MASSHEALTH APPLICATIONS WERE DETERMINED TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR A VARIETY OF CATEGORIES SUCH AS: STANDARD, CAREPLUS, COMMONHEALTH, FAMILY ASSISTANCE, LIMITED, CHILDREN'S MEDICAL SECURITY PLAN, PREMIUM ASSISTANCE, BUY-IN, AND HEALTH SAFETY NET. ADDITIONALLY, LONG TERM CARE AS WELL AS HARDSHIP APPLICATIONS WERE COMPLETED. IN THE HEALTH CONNECTOR PLANS, WHICH ARE MAINLY DETERMINED BASED ON THE HOUSEHOLD INCOME, THE APPLICATIONS RESULTED IN APPROVALS FOR CONNECTOR CARE PLANS (1, 2A, 2B, 3A AND 3B) AS WELL AS UNSUBSIDIZED HEALTH CONNECTOR PLANS DIFFERENTIATED BY METALLIC TIERS (BRONZE, SILVER, GOLD AND PLATINUM). ADDITIONAL INTERACTIONS, WHICH ARE NOT QUANTIFIED ABOVE, INCLUDED APPLICATIONS FOR MEDICARE PART D AND EXTRA HELP. THE FINANCIAL COUNSELING DEPARTMENT ALSO PROCESSES FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATIONS FOR UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED APPLICANTS THAT ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR STATE SPONSORED ASSISTANCE. THE MWHC FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY (FAP) AND THE APPLICATION ARE OUTLINED IN OUR WEBSITE AND ARE AVAILABLE IN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES. APPLICATIONS ARE REVIEWED AND DETERMINED USING FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES.OTHER FORMS OF COUNSELING INCLUDED EDUCATION FOR RISING MEDICARE ELIGIBLE COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND THEIR RIGHTS AND BENEFITS AND TO MEET DEADLINES THAT WOULD OTHERWISE LEAVE THEM UNINSURED AT CRITICAL TIMES. COUNSELORS ALSO PLAYED A VITAL ROLE IN HELPING PATIENTS UNDERSTAND AND DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN TRADITIONAL MEDICARE AND ADVANTAGE PLANS. CONSEQUENTIALLY, COUNSELORS ALSO SUPPORTED RESIDENTS TO BETTER UNDERSTAND MEDICARE SUPPLEMENTAL INSURANCES FOR THOSE UNWILLING TO APPLY OR UNABLE TO QUALIFY FOR MASSHEALTH BENEFITS.SERVICES PROVIDED BY FINANCIAL COUNSELORS INCLUDED CONTACTING DOCTORS TO COMPLETE FORMS THAT WERE NEEDED TO PROVIDE EMERGENCY MEDICATION OR FREE MEDICINE FROM MANUFACTURERS, ADVOCATING WITH INSURANCE COMPANIES ON THEIR BEHALF, HELPING THEM SETTLE BILLS OR SETTING UP PAYMENT PLANS, CONTACTING OTHER PROVIDERS AND ADVOCATING FOR A REDUCTION OR WRITE OFF OF CHARGES, HELPING THEM SORT THROUGH REAMS OF DOCUMENTS TO HELP THEM PROVIDE REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION FOR INSURANCE OR UTILITY DISCOUNTS.MWHC HAS NO ROLE IN SPECIFICALLY DETERMINING THE ELIGIBILITY FOR ENROLLMENT IN A PUBLIC ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, BUT AT THE PATIENT'S REQUEST MAY TAKE A DIRECT ROLE IN APPEALING OR SEEKING INFORMATION RELATED TO THE COVERAGE DECISION.MWHC PROVIDES ALL SELF-PAY INDIVIDUALS WITH A GENERAL NOTICE OF THE AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC ASSISTANCE AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS DURING A PATIENT'S INITIAL IN-PERSON PRE-REGISTRATION AT A HOSPITAL LOCATION FOR NON-EMERGENCY SERVICES, BY PHONE CALL OR IN-PERSON INTERVIEWS ONCE A PATIENT IS ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL FROM THE EMERGENCY ROOM OR DISCHARGED FROM THE EMERGENCY ROOM, IN ALL BILLING INVOICES THAT ARE SENT TO A PATIENT OR GUARANTOR, AND WHEN THE PROVIDER IS NOTIFIED OR THROUGH ITS OWN DILIGENCE BECOMES AWARE OF A CHANGE IN THE PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY STATUS FOR PUBLIC OR PRIVATE INSURANCE COVERAGE.IN ADDITION, MWHC ALSO POSTS INFORMATIONAL FLYERS WITH A LIST OF DOCUMENTS NEEDED FOR APPLICATIONS AND THE TELEPHONE NUMBER TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT THROUGH CENTRAL SCHEDULING.WHEN COMMUNICATING WITH PATIENTS REGARDING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, ESPECIALLY DURING SCHEDULED INTERVIEWS, OR ON THE TELEPHONE, MWHC ATTEMPTS TO DO SO IN THE PRIMARY LANGUAGE OF THE PATIENT IF REASONABLY POSSIBLE, AND IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH ALL APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS AND REGULATIONS. ADDITIONALLY, THE FAP IS DISTRIBUTED IN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES AT NON-TRADITIONAL LOCATIONS SUCH AS THE MOBILE FOOD MARKET AND FAMILY NETWORKS IN OUR SERVICE AREA. THE FAP IS AVAILABLE ON THE MWHC WEBSITE WHICH ALSO OFFERS A TRANSLATION FEATURE TO ACCOMMODATE VISITORS.WHEN LANGUAGE IS AN ISSUE THAT IMPEDES PROPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE APPLICATION PROCESS FOR HEALTH INSURANCE OR ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, FINANCIAL COUNSELORS USE THE LANGUAGE LINE, A TRANSLATION SERVICE, TO ENSURE THAT THE PATIENT UNDERSTANDS ALL ASPECTS OF THE PROCESS IN HIS/HER NATIVE LANGUAGE. THIS IS OF SPECIAL IMPORTANCE AS APPROVALS FOR SOME CATEGORIES REQUIRE THE PATIENT TO CHOOSE A PLAN OR MAKE A PAYMENT AFTER THE INITIAL ENCOUNTER WITH THE FINANCIAL COUNSELOR.
