BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER, INC.	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: BAYSTATE HEALTH HOSPITALS SERVE AS PART OF THE COALITION OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS HOSPITALS/INSURER (COALITION). THE COALITION IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN EIGHT NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS/INSURER IN WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS: BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER, BAYSTATE FRANKLIN MEDICAL CENTER, BAYSTATE NOBLE HOSPITAL, BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL, COOLEY DICKINSON HOSPITAL, MERCY MEDICAL CENTER (A MEMBER OF TRINITY HEALTH OF NEW ENGLAND), SHRINERS HOSPITALS FOR CHILDREN SPRINGFIELD, AND HEALTH NEW ENGLAND, A LOCAL HEALTH INSURER WHOSE SERVICE AREAS COVERS THE FOUR COUNTIES OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS. THE COALITION FORMED IN 2012 TO BRING HOSPITALS WITHIN WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS TOGETHER TO SHARE RESOURCES AND WORK IN PARTNERSHIP TO CONDUCT THEIR TRIENNIAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENTS (CHNAS) AND ADDRESS REGIONAL NEEDS. THE INPUT OF THE COMMUNITY AND OTHER IMPORTANT REGIONAL STAKEHOLDERS WAS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE CHNA PROCESS. A WIDE RANGE OF STAKEHOLDERS TOOK PART IN THE 2022 CHNA PROCESS, INCLUDING LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH AND HEALTH DEPARTMENTS, OTHER LOCAL MUNICIPAL AGENCIES, DIVERSE COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, ADVOCACY ORGANIZATIONS, HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, AND COMMUNITY RESIDENTS. THESE STAKEHOLDERS PROVIDED INPUT THROUGH A CHNA REGIONAL ADVISORY COUNCIL (RAC), FOCUS GROUPS, KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS, AND COMMUNITY CHATS. ADDITIONALLY, COMMUNITY FORUMS WERE CONDUCTED TOWARDS THE END OF THE CHNA PROCESS TO VET PRELIMINARY FINDINGS WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS. PLEASE REFER TO THE HOSPITALS' CHNA APPENDIX I FOR A COMPLETE LISTING OF PUBLIC HEALTH, COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES, AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS INCLUDED IN THE PROCESS.THE CHNA RAC INCLUDED REPRESENTATIVES FROM EACH COALITION MEMBER HOSPITAL/INSURER AS WELL AS PUBLIC HEALTH AND COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS FROM EACH HOSPITAL SERVICE AREA. STAKEHOLDERS ON THE RAC INCLUDED LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH AND HEALTH DEPARTMENT REPRESENTATIVES; REPRESENTATIVES FROM LOCAL AND REGIONAL ORGANIZATIONS SERVING OR REPRESENTING MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, LOW-INCOME OR POPULATIONS OF COLOR; AND INDIVIDUALS FROM ORGANIZATIONS THAT REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY.

SCHOOLS, COMMUNITY SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS, HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, PUBLIC HEALTH, AND HOUSING), AND RACIAL/ETHNIC DIVERSITY OF RAC. THE RAC MET IN WORKGROUPS (DATA AND REPORTS, ENGAGEMENT AND DISSEMINATION, AND HEALTH EQUITY) TO GUIDE THE CONSULTANTS IN THE PROCESS OF CONDUCTING THE CHNA, AND PRIORITIZING COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS, CHNA FINDINGS, AND DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION.

THE RAC MET MONTHLY FROM FEBRUARY 2021 THROUGH JULY 2022.KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS AND FOCUS GROUPS WERE CONDUCTED TO GATHER INFORMATION USED TO IDENTIFY PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS AND ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY. KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS WERE CONDUCTED WITH HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS, HEALTH CARE ADMINISTRATORS, LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS, AND LOCAL LEADERS THAT REPRESENT THE INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY OR THAT SERVE MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, LOW-INCOME, OR POPULATIONS OF COLOR IN THE SERVICE AREA. INTERVIEWS WITH LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS IDENTIFIED PRIORITY HEALTH AREAS AND COMMUNITY FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO HEALTH NEEDS. FOCUS GROUP PARTICIPANTS INCLUDED COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION REPRESENTATIVES, COMMUNITY MEMBERS (LOW-INCOME, PEOPLE OF COLOR, AND OTHERS), AND OTHER COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS. TOPICS INCLUDED BUT WERE NOT LIMITED TO: ACCESS TO BASIC NEEDS, HEALTHCARE LANDSCAPE AND ACCESS, MENTAL HEALTH AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS AND FOCUS GROUPS WERE CONDUCTED FROM FEBRUARY 2022 THROUGH MAY 2022.

AT THE END OF THE 2022 CHNA RESEARCH PROCESS, BERKSHIRE HEALTH SYSTEMS JOINED THE COALITION.
BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER, INC.	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6B: THE COALITION OF WESTERN MA HOSPITALS/ INSURER ENGAGED THE PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE OF WESTERN MA (PHIWM), BASED IN SPRINGFIELD, MA, AS THE LEAD CONSULTANT TO CONDUCT THE CHNAS. PHIWM WAS SUPPORTED BY THREE OTHER CONSULTANT TEAMS: COMMUNITY HEALTH SOLUTIONS (CES), BASED IN NORTHAMPTON, MA; FRANKLIN REGIONAL COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS (FRCOG), BASED IN GREENFIELD, MA; AND PIONEER VALLEY PLANNING COMMISSION (PVPC), BASED IN SPRINGFIELD, MA. THE COALITION INCLUDES HEALTH NEW ENGLAND, A LOCAL HEALTH INSURER WHOSE SERVICE AREA COVERS THE FOUR COUNTIES OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS.
BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER, INC.	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7D: THE HOSPITAL FACILITY MADE ITS CHNA REPORT WIDELY AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC VIA AN EMAIL DISTRIBUTION, WITH LINKS TO THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE, TO COMMUNITY PARTNERS AND ORGANIZATIONS. IN ADDITION, THE CHNA REPORTS HAVE INFORMED THE IMPLEMENTATION OF COUNTY WIDE COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLANS IN FRANKLIN AND HAMPDEN COUNTIES. HOSPITAL AND CHNA CONSULTANT STAFF HAVE BEEN INVITED TO VARIOUS VENUES AND AUDIENCES TO PRESENT ON THE CHNA PROCESS AND KEY FINDINGS. ALL COALITION CHNAS WERE POSTED TO THE WEBSITE AND SHARED VIA THE OFFICE OF GOVERNMENT AND COMMUNITY RELATIONS NEWSLETTER TO OVER 500 RECIPIENTS.
BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER, INC.	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: THE HOSPITAL FACILITY ANTICIPATES HEALTH NEEDS AND AVAILABLE RESOURCES MAY CHANGE, THEREFORE, A FLEXIBLE APPROACH WAS ADOPTED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ITS IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. FOR EXAMPLE, CERTAIN COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS MAY BECOME MORE PRONOUNCED AND REQUIRE CHANGES TO THE INITIATIVES IDENTIFIED BY THE HOSPITAL IN THE STRATEGY. OTHER COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS MAY ADDRESS CERTAIN NEEDS, INDICATING THAT THE HOSPITAL'S STRATEGIES SHOULD BE REFOCUSED ON ALTERNATIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS OR ASSUME A DIFFERENT FOCUS ON THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE 2022 CHNA.THE HOSPITAL FACILITY VIEWS A COMMUNITY BENEFITS IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY AS A "LIVING" DOCUMENT. BAYSTATE HOSPITALS HAVE ADOPTED THE TERM STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN (SIP), IN LIEU OF IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE HOSPITAL ARE REFERRED TO AS PRIORITY FOCUS AREAS IN THE SIP. DUE TO THE EVOLVING CLIMATE IN HEALTH CARE, THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL HEALTH YEAR TO YEAR REMAINS UNKNOWN; THEREFORE HOSPITAL RESOURCES AND INPUTS MAY INCREASE, DECREASE, OR NEED TO BE MODIFIED. THE HOSPITAL'S SIP WORK PLAN PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE HOSPITAL TO BE STRATEGIC AND FOCUSED, YET FLEXIBLE IN ITS COMMUNITY HEALTH PLANNING AND IMPROVEMENT EFFORTS. THE HOSPITAL FACILITY, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ITS COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL REVIEWS THE WORK PLANS QUARTERLY AND THE HOSPITAL UPDATES THE WORK PLANS ON THE HOSPITAL WEBSITE ANNUALLY.NO HEALTH CARE SYSTEM OR HOSPITAL FACILITY CAN ADDRESS ALL THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEED PRESENT IN ITS COMMUNITY. THE HOSPITAL FACILITY IS COMMITTED TO ADHERING TO ITS MISSION AND REMAINING FINANCIALLY HEALTHY SO THAT IT CAN CONTINUE TO ENHANCE ITS CLINICAL EXCELLENCE AND PATIENT EXPERIENCE, AS WELL AS ADDRESS SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE CHNA. THE HOSPITAL FACILITY'S IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY DOES NOT EXPLICITLY ADDRESS ALL SIGNIFICANT COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE 2022 CHNA DUE TO:1. LIMITED RESOURCES (TIME, TALENT, AND TREASURE),2. THE HOSPITAL IS A STAKEHOLDER AND/OR PARTNER IN ADDRESSING THE NEED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY THROUGH OTHER HOSPITAL CLINICAL AND SERVICE LINES AND COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS,3. OTHER HOSPITALS OR COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS WITHIN THE SERVICE AREA ARE ADDRESSING THE NEED;4. THE NEED FALLS OUTSIDE OF THE HOSPITAL'S MISSION OR LIMITED RESOURCE CAPACITY. SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS, REFERRED TO BY THE HOSPITAL AS PRIORITY FOCUS AREAS, BEING ADDRESSED BY THE HOSPITAL INCLUDE, LACK OF RESOURCES TO MEET BASIC NEEDS, WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, VIOLENCE AND TRAUMA AND MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE WITH A FOCUS ON YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH.SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS NOT TO BE ADDRESSED INCLUDE, ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES, AVAILABILITY OF PROVIDERS AND TELEHEALTH, OTHER BARRIERS TO HEALTHCARE, CHRONIC DISEASES AND OTHER HEALTH OUTCOMES.
BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER, INC.	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 13B: ALL PATIENTS WITH ACCOUNT BALANCES (OTHER THAN BALANCES RESULTING FROM CO-PAYMENTS OR DEDUCTIBLES ON INSURED SERVICES) ARE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A PROMPT PAY DISCOUNT OF 20% OF THE BALANCE FOR CLAIMS PAID IN FULL AT TIME OF SERVICE OR WITHIN 60 DAYS OF THE DATE OF THE INITIAL BILL. PATIENTS MUST REQUEST THE DISCOUNT. THE DISCOUNT CANNOT BE COMBINED WITH THE HOSPITAL SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM.

THIS DISCOUNT PROGRAM IS AVAILABLE TO ALL HOSPITAL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENTS WITH CO-PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS UNDER PRIVATE OR GOVERNMENT HEALTH INSURANCE (UNLESS PROHIBITED BY LAW OR A BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER'S CONTRACT WITH A PRIVATE INSURER OR GOVERNMENT AUTHORITY).

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
PART I, LINE 6A:	THE HOSPITAL FACILITY FILES AN ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORT ELECTRONICALLY WITH THE MASSACHUSETTS OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL VIA THEIR WEBSITE AT HTTPS://WWW.MASS.GOV/NONPROFIT-HOSPITAL-AND-HMO-COMMUNITY-BENEFITS. THEHOSPITAL FACILITY'S ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORT IS ALSO PUBLISHED ON THE BAYSTATE HEALTH WEBSITE ATHTTPS://WWW.BAYSTATEHEALTH.ORG/ABOUT-US/COMMUNITY-PROGRAMS/COMMUNITY-BENEFITS/COMMUNITY-HEALTH-NEEDS-ASSESSMENT. THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORT PROVIDES THE OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT HOW THE HOSPITAL PARTNERS WITH THE COMMUNITY TO IDENTIFY AND ADDRESS HEALTH NEEDS.
PART I, LINE 7:	LINE 7A (CHARITY CARE) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES, CALCULATED ON WORKSHEET 2, AGAINST TOTAL CHARITY CARE GROSS PATIENT CHARGES FROM THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.LINE 7B (UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS DERIVED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM, WHICH TAKES INTO ACCOUNT ALL HOSPITAL INPATIENTS, OUTPATIENTS AND EMERGENCY ROOM PATIENTS FOR WHOM SERVICES WERE PROVIDED AND COVERED UNDER MEDICAID AND MEDICAID MANAGED CARE PLANS.LINE 7C (OTHER MEANS-TESTED PROGRAMS) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS DERIVED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM, WHICH TAKES INTO ACCOUNT ALL HOSPITAL INPATIENTS, OUTPATIENTS AND EMERGENCY ROOM PATIENTS FOR WHOM SERVICES WERE PROVIDED AND COVERED UNDER OTHER MEANS-TESTED GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS.LINE 7E (COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SERVICES & BENEFIT OPERATIONS) - COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SERVICES CALCULATIONS ARE DERIVED FROM DIRECT AND INDIRECT COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITIES THAT ARE ALIGNED WITH THE HOSPITAL'S 2021 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THESE ACTIVITIES ARE CARRIED OUT TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY HEALTH AND WELLNESS AND EXTEND BEYOND PATIENT CARE, BEYOND THE WALLS OF THE HOSPITAL.COMMUNITY BENEFIT OPERATIONS CALCULATIONS ARE DERIVED FROM COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ASSIGNED STAFF AND COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AND/OR ASSETS ASSESSMENT, AS WELL AS OTHER COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH COMMUNITY BENEFITS STRATEGY AND OPERATIONS.LINE 7F (HEALTH PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS DERIVED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM.LINE 7G (SUBSIDIZED PROGRAMS) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS DERIVED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. THIS EXPENSE RELATES TO THE INPATIENT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND END OF LIFE CARE, AS WELL AS SPECIFIC OUTPATIENT PROGRAMS. THERE ARE NO COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PHYSICIAN CLINICS REPORTED AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES IN PART I, LINE 7G.LINE 7H (RESEARCH) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS DERIVED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. IN ADDITION TO THE RESEARCH COSTS REPORTED ON LINE 7H, THERE WAS $700,952 OF EXPENSES RELATED TO INDUSTRY-SPONSORED GRANTS THAT WE BELIEVE SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE BECAUSE THEY WERE INCURRED TO PROMOTE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF THE LOCAL POPULATION AND ARE A KEY COMPONENT OF OUR COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY.PART I, LN 7 COL(F):ESTIMATED UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS DUE FROM PATIENTS (BAD DEBT EXPENSE) IS AN IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSION AND A DIRECT REDUCTION TO NET OPERATING REVENUE. THESE IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN TOTAL EXPENSES REPORTED IN PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A) FOR THE PURPOSE OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGES IN PART 1, LINE 7, COLUMN (F).
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES:	THE HOSPITAL FACILITY IS COMMITTED TO CREATING HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES AND UNDERSTANDS THAT MANY STATE AND FEDERALLY MANDATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAMS AND SERVICES ARE NOT SUFFICIENT TO ADDRESS ETHNIC, RACIAL, AND ECONOMIC HEALTH DISPARITIES AND INEQUITIES. THE HOSPITAL EMBRACES THE TRADITIONAL DEFINITION OF "HEALTH" TO INCLUDE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY, AFFORDABLE HOUSING, QUALITY EDUCATION, SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS, FOOD SECURITY, SOCIAL AND RACIAL JUSTICE, AND THE ARTS/CULTURE ALL ELEMENTS THAT ARE NEEDED FOR INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES, AND COMMUNITIES TO THRIVE. THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES MANY VALUABLE SERVICES, RESOURCES, PROGRAMS, AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT - BEYOND THE WALLS OF THE HOSPITAL AND INTO THE COMMUNITIES AND HOMES OF THE PEOPLE IT SERVES; INCLUDING GRANTS AND SPONSORSHIP OF LOCAL COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND THE INVOLVEMENT OF BAYSTATE HEALTH LEADERSHIP WITH VARIOUS COMMUNITY BOARDS THAT ALIGN WITH ITS MISSION.THE HOSPITAL PROVIDED $110,000.00 TO THE ANCHOR COLLABORATIVE WHICH PROVIDES ECONOMIC ASSISTANCE TO OUR SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES. THE HOSPITAL FACILITY IS A DUES PAYING MEMBER OF THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS (EDC) AND SPRINGFIELD REGIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, IN THE AMOUNT OF $88,564.10. THE HOSPITAL PARTICIPATES IN THE EDC AND LOCAL CHAMBERS AS IT IS THE LARGEST EMPLOYER IN THE REGION. THE CHAMBER AND ITS MEMBERS COORDINATE ACTIVITIES TOWARD A COMMON PURPOSE OF SUSTAINABILITY AND ECONOMIC GROWTH FOR THE REGION.
PART III, LINE 2:	THE COST OF BAD DEBTS REPORTED WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING A RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES (BASED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM INCLUDING ALL HOSPITAL INPATIENTS AND OUTPATIENTS) AGAINST TOTAL IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS AS REFLECTED IN THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
PART III, LINE 3:	THE PORTION OF BAD DEBT THAT REASONABLY COULD BE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO MAY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE PERCENTAGE OF BAD DEBTS BY ZIP CODE (FOR WHICH THE AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD INCOME FOR EACH ZIP CODE IS LESS THAN 150% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL) TO THE TOTAL COST OF BAD DEBT REPORTED IN PART III LINE 2. SINCE THIS PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS RESIDING IN AN AREA WHERE THE AVERAGE INCOME IS LESS THAN 150% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, IT IS HIGHLY LIKELY THESE PATIENTS WOULD HAVE QUALIFIED FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM HAD THEY APPLIED. FOR THIS REASON, WE BELIEVE THE AMOUNT, TOTALLING $662,650, SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE IN PART I.
PART III, LINE 4:	AS NOTED ABOVE, THE ORGANIZATION ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATE 2014-09 EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1, 2018, WHICH CHANGED THE WAY ENTITIES REPORT AND DISCLOSE CERTAIN FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDING IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSION (FORMERLY THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS). SEE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, FOOTNOTE #2 (SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES) ON PAGE 15 UNDER THE CAPTION "NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE AND PAGE 17 UNDER THE CAPTION "RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS" FOR A DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANIZATION'S REPORTING OF ITS IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS (FORMERLY PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS). IF A PATIENT IS DETERMINED ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, THE APPROPRIATE ADJUSTMENT IS MADE TO THE PATIENT ACCOUNT BASED ON THEIR INCOME LEVEL.ONCE THE NECESSARY APPROVALS ARE OBTAINED,IT THEN FLOWS TO THE GENERAL LEDGER. PATIENTS APPLYING FOR A PROMPT PAYMENT DISCOUNT WILL HAVE THIS ALLOWANCE ENTERED AFTER AGREED UPON PAYMENT IS RECEIVED.
PART III, LINE 8:	LINE 6 - INCLUDED ALL MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS AS CALCULATED IN WORKSHEETS D-1 PART II (INPATIENT) AND D PART V (OUTPATIENT) OF THE HOSPITAL'S 2022 MEDICARE COST REPORT, NET OF MEDICARE COSTS REPORTED IN PART I, LINE 7.G, BASED ON MEDICARE COSTING PRINCIPLES. WE BELIEVE THE SHORTFALL REPORTED OF $16,126,472 SHOULD BE TREATED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE FOR TAX REPORTING PURPOSES BECAUSE PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY IS A KEY COMPONENT OF OUR COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE UNREIMBURSED EXPENSES SHOLD BE TREATED SIMILARLY TO UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID SINCE THE MAJORITY OF THE LOCAL ELDERLY POPULATION IS NOT AFFLUENT.
PART III, LINE 9B:	FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: THE PATIENT MAY HAVE REQUESTED ASSISTANCE UP FRONT AT TIME OF SERVICE WITH A FINANCIAL COUNSELOR OR THE PATIENT COULD HAVE ASKED FOR ASSISTANCE AFTER RECEIVING THEIR BILL BY CONTACTING OUR PATIENT BILLING SERVICES REPRESENTATIVES. THE FINANCIAL COUNSELOR WILL ASSIST THE PATIENT IN APPLYING FOR THE APPROPRIATE TYPE OF ASSISTANCE BASED ON THEIR INCOME AND CIRCUMSTANCES. ONCE APPROVED FOR A STATE MEDICAID OR OTHER PROGRAM, ALL BILLING AND COLLECTION ACTIVITY WILL STOP (EXCEPT FOR REQUIRED CO-PAYMENTS OR DEDUCTIBLES). FOR ALL OTHER PATIENTS, OUR STATEMENTS CONTAIN INFORMATION REGARDING HOW TO APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. NOTICES CONCERNING AVAILABILITY FOR ASSISTANCE ARE ALSO POSTED AT PATIENT CARE SITES.
PART VI, LINE 2:	THE BAYSTATE BOARD GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE CONVENES SEMI-ANNUALLY AND IS CHARGED WITH ADVOCATING FOR COMMUNITY BENEFITS AT THE BOARD LEVEL AND THROUGHOUT THE HEALTH SYSTEM AND BROADER COMMUNITY; ALIGNING THE SYSTEM'S FOUR (4) HOSPITAL-SPECIFIC COMMUNITY BENEFITS IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES WITH THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S STRATEGIC PLAN; REVIEW OF CHNA DATA; APPROVAL OF A COMMUNITY BENEFITS MISSION STATEMENT AND HEALTH PRIORITIES; REVIEW IMPACTS OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS ACTIVITIES AND INVESTMENTS; AND ENSURE BAYSTATE HEALTH'S COMMUNITY BENEFITS ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH GUIDELINES ESTABLISHED BY THE MA ATTORNEY GENERAL AND IRS. ANNUALLY, THE OFFICE OF GOVERNMENT AND COMMUNITY RELATIONS PROVIDES UPDATES TO THE BAYSTATE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, BAYSTATE PRESIDENT'S CABINET, AND OTHER BAYSTATE LEADERSHIP TEAMS, AS REQUESTED. THE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL (CBAC) CONTINUES TO BRING A COMMUNITY LENS AND FILTER FOR THE HOSPITAL'S HEALTH PRIORITIES. THE CBAC PROVIDES A COMMUNITY PERSPECTIVE ON HOW TO INCREASE WELLNESS AND RESILIENCE OPPORTUNITIES FOR OPTIMAL HEALTH FOR AN ENTIRE POPULATION; GUIDANCE IN MATCHING HOSPITAL RESOURCES TO COMMUNITY RESOURCES, THUS MAKING THE MOST OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE WITH THE GOAL TO IMPROVE HEALTH STATUS AND QUALITY OF LIFE; AND POLICY ADVOCACY TO ASSURE AND RESTORE HEALTH EQUITY BY TARGETING RESOURCES FOR RESIDENTS. PARTICIPANTS ON THE HOSPITAL CBAC REPRESENT CONSTITUENCIES AND COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL. CBAC MEMBERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWING COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT DATA AND USE THIS ANALYSIS AS A FOUNDATION FOR PROVIDING THE HOSPITAL WITH INPUT ON ITS COMMUNITY BENEFITS PLANNING PROCESS.BAYSTATE HEALTH PATIENT & FAMILY ADVISORY COUNCIL (PFAC) MEMBERS PROVIDED VALUABLE INPUT IN ENHANCING CARE AT BAYSTATE HEALTH BASED ON THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF PATIENTS AND FAMILIES. INFORMATION FROM PFAC PROVIDES HOSPITAL LEADERSHIP WITH AN ENHANCED UNDERSTANDING OF HOW TO IMPROVE QUALITY, PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT, SERVICE EXCELLENCE, COMMUNICATIONS, PATIENT SAFETY, FACILITY DESIGN, PATIENT AND FAMILY EDUCATION, PATIENT AND FAMILY SATISFACTION, AND LOYALTY. PFAC IS MADE UP OF A DIVERSE GROUP OF PATIENTS, FAMILY MEMBERS, AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO REPRESENT THE COLLECTIVE VOICE OF THE PATIENTS AND FAMILIES AT BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER, BAYSTATE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, BAYSTATE FRANKLIN MEDICAL CENTER, BAYSTATE NOBLE HOSPITAL, BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL, THE D'AMOUR CENTER FOR CANCER CARE, AND THE BEHEALTHY ACCOUNTABLE CARE ORGANIZATION (ACO) IN BAYSTATE MANAGED HEALTH CENTERS.
PART VI, LINE 3:	THE HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO ENSURING THAT PATIENTS IN ITS COMMUNITY HAVE ACCESS TO QUALITY HEALTH CARE SERVICES WITH FAIRNESS AND RESPECT WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PATIENTS' ABILITY TO PAY. THE HOSPITAL RECOGNIZES THE COST OF NECESSARY HEALTH CARE SERVICES CAN IMPOSE A SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL BURDEN ON PATIENTS WHO ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED, AND ACTS AFFIRMATIVELY TO LESSEN THAT BURDEN BY OFFERING ELIGIBLE PATIENTS THE OPPORTUNITY TO APPLY FOR FREE OR REDUCED COST SERVICES. THE HOSPITAL NOT ONLY OFFERS FREE AND REDUCED COST CARE AS REQUIRED BY LAW, BUT HAS ALSO VOLUNTARILY ESTABLISHED DISCOUNT AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE ADDITIONAL FREE AND REDUCED COST CARE TO MORE PATIENTS RESIDING WITHIN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL.THE HOSPITAL RECOGNIZES THE BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCESS CAN BE BEWILDERING AND BURDENSOME FOR PATIENTS AND HAS IMPLEMENTED PROCEDURES TO MAKE THE PROCESS UNDERSTANDABLE FOR PATIENTS; TO INFORM PATIENTS ABOUT DISCOUNT AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE OPTIONS; AND TO ENSURE THAT PATIENTS ARE NOT SUBJECT TO AGGRESSIVE COLLECTION ACTIVITIES. CONSISTENT WITH ITS PATIENT COMMITMENT, THE HOSPITAL IS REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND A BILLING AND COLLECTION POLICY THAT REFLECTS ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE OPTIONS AND PATIENT BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCEDURES AND COMPLIES WITH APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS AND REGULATIONS.THE HOSPITAL HAS FINANCIAL COUNSELORS AVAILABLE TO HELP PATIENTS APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS THAT MAY COVER UNPAID HOSPITAL BILLS, INCLUDING A VARIETY OF FEDERAL AND STATE PROGRAMS AS WELL AS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH THE HOSPITAL. HOSPITAL FINANCIAL COUNSELORS HAVE ALL BEEN TRAINED AND CERTIFIED BY THE STATE AS CERTIFIED ACCOUNT COUNSELORS TO ASSIST PATIENTS IN APPLYING FOR AVAILABLE FEDERAL AND STATE PROGRAMS. THE HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO ENSURING THAT PATIENTS OR PROSPECTIVE PATIENTS IN THE COMMUNITY ARE AWARE OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. FOR UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED PATIENTS, THE HOSPITAL WILL ASSIST IN APPLYING FOR AVAILABLE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS.
