BHSET proudly provides support groups for patients and families including Diabetes, Bariatrics and Childbirth Education. While the COVID-19 pandemic created a need for tremendous resources, it also created a vast opportunity for public education and community involvement. Baptist employees volunteered their time at a local church scanning temperatures for over 150 people at a community event, partnered with the county to create an infusion clinic for treatments, Baptist physicians educated 149 industrial workers at a virtual townhall on prevention and treatment and BHSET provided PSA's through various media outlets on long-term side effects and vaccination efficacies.

Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote	Patient accounts receivable are recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at net realizable value based on certain assumptions. In evaluating the collectability of patient accounts receivable, BHSET analyzes its past history and identifies trends for each of its major payor sources of revenue to estimate the net realizable value. Management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for doubtful accounts. For receivables associated with services provided to patients who have third-party coverage, the net realizable value is based on the estimated contractual reimbursement percentages, which is based on current contract prices or historical claims paid data by payor. 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 net realizable value is determined using estimates of historical collection experience. These estimates are adjusted for recoveries and any anticipated changes in trends, including significant changes in payor mix, economic conditions or trends in federal and state governmental health care coverage.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit methodology for determining medicare costs	TREATMENT OF MEDICARE SHORTFALL AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL IS TREATED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS IT IS THE COST OF PROVIDING CARE TO THE COMMUNITY THAT IS NOT REIMBURSED BY THE MEDICARE PROGRAM.

	WE HAVE ONE PRIMARY SERVICE ACTIVITY AND THAT IS TO PROVIDE HIGH QUALITY HEALTH SERVICES TO THE SOUTHEAST TEXAS COMMUNITY. PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE FOR THE BEAUMONT AND ORANGE FACILITIES INCLUDES BOTH INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT ROUTINE AND ANCILLARY REVENUE. FOR OVER SIXTY YEARS, BHSET HAS BEEN DEDICATED TO PROVIDING QUALITY HEALTH SERVICES IN A CHRISTIAN ENVIRONMENT. OUR PARTNERS IN CARING - OUR PHYSICIANS, OUR NURSES AND STAFF - PRACTICE A PHILOSOPHY THAT INSPIRES AN ENVIRONMENT OF TEAMWORK, RESPECT, ENCOURAGEMENT, OPPORTUNITY AND TRUST. OUR EFFORTS CONTINUE EACH DAY AS WE STRIVE TO OFFER NEWER AND BETTER PROGRAMS, SERVICES AND TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY. WITH A COMMITMENT TO EXCEED CUSTOMER EXPECTATIONS THROUGH DISTINGUISHED QUALITY, SAFETY, CUSTOMER SERVICE, SPIRITUAL VALUES, OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE AND INNOVATION IN MEETING THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THOSE BEING SERVICED, PLANS FOR ADDITIONAL SERVICES BECAME A REALITY. CANCER SERVICES FOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS BEGAN IN 1990 WHEN THE BEN AND JULIE ROGERS CANCER INSTITUTE WAS DEDICATED TO PROVIDING OUTPATIENT CHEMOTHERAPY AS WELL AS INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT RADIATION THERAPY SERVICES. EACH YEAR ADVANCEMENTS CONTINUE IN GROWTH AND IMPROVEMENTS INCLUDING CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL, WHICH INCLUDED ADDING APPROXIMATELY 160,000 SQUARE FEET TO THE EXISTING EAST CAMPUS. THE INNOVATIVE ADDITION WOULD INCLUDE ADDITIONAL INTENSIVE CARE AND TELEMETRY ROOMS AND A NEW EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT THAT INCREASED THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS WHO CAN BE SERVED TO 90,000 PER YEAR. THE NEW CONSTRUCTION ALSO INCLUDED NEW SURGERY SUITES, ENDOSCOPY, CATHETERIZATION LABS, IMAGING DEPARTMENT, OUTPATIENT HOLDING AREA, HOSPITAL CAFETERIA, CHAPEL, PHARMACY, AND GIFT SHOP. ANOTHER 52,000 SQUARE FEET OF RENOVATIONS WERE COMPLETED PROVIDING NEW GASTROINTESTINAL LABS, A NEW LABORATORY, REHABILITATION UNIT, PULMONARY FUNCTIONS LAB AND DAY SURGERY UNITS. WITH THE COMPLETION OF THE 'NEW CITY OF HEALING' IN 2003, THE EXPANSION OF SERVICES WAS AT THE HEART OF THE ORGANIZATION. FOCUSING ON THE SMALLEST MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, THE CHILDREN'S UNIT AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL ORIGINATED - PROVING CARING FOR KIDS IS JUST THE RIGHT SIZE AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL. MEETING THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF CHILDREN, THE FIRST CERTIFIED CHILD LIFE SPECIALIST WAS ADDED TO HELP CHILDREN FROM INFANTS TO TEENS AND THEIR FAMILIES COPE WITH A HOSPITAL EXPERIENCE. THE CHILD LIFE SPECIALIST PROVIDES EMOTIONAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL SUPPORT WHILE GIVING HONEST INFORMATION GEARED TO A CHILD'S LEVEL OF UNDERSTANDING AND, OF COURSE, PLENTY OF CHILD'S PLAY! WITH OVER 40 MILLION PEOPLE FEELING EXHAUSTED BECAUSE THEY ARE EXPERIENCING A SLEEP DISORDER, BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL PROUDLY ANNOUNCED THE SLEEP CENTER LOCATED AT THE MAIN CAMPUS. CHRONIC SLEEP DISORDERS CAN DISTURB FAMILY LIFE, AFFECT PRODUCTIVITY AT WORK AND EVEN RESULT IN DEATH. THE SLEEP CENTER WAS ESTABLISHED TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE CARE TO PATIENTS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING SLEEP PROBLEMS. SOME OF THE MOST COMMON DISORDERS INCLUDE: SLEEP APNEA, NARCOLEPSY, RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME AND INSOMNIA. BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL'S WOUND HEALING AND BARIATRIC CENTER PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE, OUTPATIENT WOUND CARE SERVICES, INCLUDING HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY. THE CENTER UTILIZES A MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO WOUND CARE BY COORDINATING THE EFFORTS OF MULTIPLE SPECIALTIES TRAINED TO TREAT PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC OR NON-HEALING WOUNDS. THE CENTER IS STAFFED BY PHYSICIANS IN THE FOLLOWING SPECIALTIES: FAMILY MEDICINE, INFECTIOUS DISEASE, PODIATRY, AND THORACIC/VASCULAR SURGERY. THE CERTIFIED PROGRAM IS COMPLIANT WITH THE MOST STRINGENT STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE. BY UTILIZING THE RIGOROUS STANDARDS AND CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINES, SUPERIOR CARE IS PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY. THE WOUND HEALING AND BARIATRIC CENTER HAS RECEIVED THE GOLD SEAL OF APPROVAL IN DISEASE STATE MANAGEMENT FROM THE JOINT COMMISSION ON ACCREDITATION OF HOSPITAL ORGANIZATIONS. OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS, ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS AND SERVICES SUCH AS THE STRYKER NAVIGATION TECHNOLOGY HAVE BEEN ADDED TO COMPLEMENT THE SERVICES PROVIDED AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL. THE STRYKER NAVIGATION SYSTEM OFFERS A TECHNOLOGY OPTION THAT HELPS FACILITATE ACCURATE IMPLANT ALIGNMENT AND PROPER LIGAMENT BALANCING, WHICH ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT PREREQUISITES FOR THE ARTIFICIAL KNEE JOINT STABILITY, DURABILITY AND SUFFICIENT RANGE OF MOTION. NAVIGATED TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT IS AN EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL WAY TO TREAT QUALIFYING PATIENTS WITH SEVERE KNEE PAIN. THE NEW SURGICAL NAVIGATION TECHNOLOGY THAT IS NOW IN PLACE GREATLY ENHANCES THE ABILITY TO RESTORE RANGE OF MOTION, OVERALL FUNCTION AND RETURNS PATIENTS TO NORMAL ACTIVITIES. AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL, THE NEWEST ARRIVAL TO WOMEN'S SERVICES IS THE 'HUGS AND KISSES' INFANT PROTECTION SYSTEM. LOCATED IN THE PEDIATRIC AND WOMEN'S SERVICES UNIT, AN ADVANCED SYSTEM HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED FOR ENSURING THE SAFETY OF BABIES, HELPING TO ENSURE THAT A BABY IS MATCHED WITH ITS OWN MOTHER WHEN BROUGHT TO A ROOM FROM THE NURSERY AND THAT ONLY AUTHORIZED INDIVIDUALS MOVE A BABY THROUGH THE UNITS. THE VERICHIP RADIO TRANSMITTER IS PLACED ON THE BABY'S ANKLE. WITH A WIRELESS SYSTEM IN PLACE THROUGHOUT THE AREA, 'HUGS' POLLS THE BABY'S MOTIONS EVERY SEVEN SECONDS TO DETERMINE THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE INFANT IN RELATION TO AN ELECTRONIC FLOOR PLAN THAT IS OBSERVED BY HOSPITAL STAFF. IN MAY 2006 THE NEW DAUPHIN CANCER SCREENING AND PREVENTION CENTER PARTNERED WITH THE JULIE AND BEN ROGERS CANCER INSTITUTE OPENED TO THE COMMUNITY. A FIRST IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS, THE CENTER OFFERS SCREENING TESTS FOR PROSTATE CANCER AND BREAST CANCER ALONG WITH PREVENTION PROGRAMS. THE DAUPHIN CENTER WAS THE FIRST IN THE AREA TO OFFER DIGITAL MAMMOGRAM IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS. IN 2007 THE TEXAS NURSES ASSOCIATION (TNA), A STATEWIDE PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATION OF REGISTERED NURSES, ANNOUNCED THE NEW ADDITIONS TO THE LIST OF HOSPITALS IN TEXAS TO EARN THE NURSE-FRIENDLY HOSPITAL DESIGNATION. AWARDED ONLY TWICE A YEAR, THE TNA'S NURSE-FRIENDLY HOSPITAL DESIGNATION NOW BELONGS TO THE BAPTIST BEAUMONT CAMPUS. THE NEWEST RECIPIENTS JOIN ONLY THIRTY-ONE OTHER HOSPITALS FROM THE STATE'S 581 IN ATTAINING THE THREE-YEAR DESIGNATION. THIS AWARD TELLS THE COMMUNITY THAT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF PATIENT CARE AND IT TELLS NURSES THAT THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES THE TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT THAT ALLOWS NURSES TO PRACTICE EXCELLENT PRACTICE CARE. LATER THE SAME YEAR, THE GREATER BEAUMONT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE RECOGNIZED BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL FOR ITS LONG-TIME COMMITMENT TO SOUTHEAST TEXAS WHEN IT ANNOUNCED THE BEAUMONT FACILITY HAD BEEN RECOGNIZED AS THE RECIPIENT OF THE 2007 SPINDLETOP AWARD. RECOGNITION WAS GIVEN FOR THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS WITH THE NEW EXPANSION AND THE LEVEL OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY. BAPTIST HOSPITAL'S AWARD-WINNING CARE IS COMPLEMENTED BY BEING CERTIFIED AS AN ADVANCED PRIMARY STROKE CARE CENTER BY THE JOINT COMMISSION FOR DISEASE-SPECIFIC CARE. THE STROKE PROGRAM AT BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED FOR EXCEPTIONAL EFFORTS TO FOSTER BETTER OUTCOMES FOR STROKE PATIENTS. THE STROKE PROGRAM HAS PARTNERED WITH LOCAL VENDORS, MEDICAL PERSONNEL AND PHYSICIANS TO ESTABLISH THE NEW STROKEWISE SUPPORT GROUP DESIGNED TO PROVIDE STROKE SURVIVORS AND THEIR FAMILIES A WAY TO MEET OTHER STROKE SURVIVORS OR CAREGIVERS. BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL'S FOCUS ON INNOVATION IMPLEMENTED THE MEDIVANCE'S COOLING TECHNOLOGY. THE ARCTIC SUN THERAPEUTIC TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT DEVICE, THE ONLY ONE IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS, IS A PRECISE NONINVASIVE PATIENT COOLING DEVICE THAT IS USED AT MORE THAN SEVENTY PERCENT OF THE NATION'S TOP HOSPITALS. THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT IS THE RP-6 MOBILE ROBOT SYSTEM, MADE BY INTOUCH HEALTH, THE ROBOT ALLOWS DOCTORS TO 'VIRTUALLY' CONSULT WITH PATIENTS, FAMILY MEMBERS, AND HEALTH CARE STAFF AT A MOMENT'S NOTICE, EVEN IF MILES AWAY FROM THE HOSPITAL. THE RP-6 WILL ALLOW PHYSICIANS IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO PATIENTS IN SITUATIONS WHERE TIME IS CRITICAL. THE HOSPITAL WAS ALSO RECOGNIZED BY THE TEXAS HEALTH CARE QUALITY IMPROVEMENT AWARD PROGRAM WITH THE AWARD OF EXCELLENCE. OTHER AWARDS INCLUDE THE 2005 PRESS GANEY COMPASS AWARD PRESENTED TO BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL FOR OUTSTANDING IMPROVEMENT IN PATIENT SATISFACTION. MOST RECENTLY, THE VHA AWARDED BAPTIST BEAUMONT HOSPITAL WITH THE 2006 LEADERSHIP AWARD FOR CLINICAL EXCELLENCE IN CARDIAC CARE.
