Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 3 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - GUNDERSEN LUTHERAN MEDICAL CENTER INC. THE COMPASS NOW 2021 REPORT HTTPS://WWW.GREATRIVERSUNITEDWAY.ORG/OUR-WORK/COMMUNITY-NEEDS-ASSESSMENT/, INCLUDES 6 COUNTIES IN THE GUNDERSEN LUTHERAN MEDICAL CENTER'S SERVICE AREA. AT THAT TIME, THESE 6 COUNTIES REPRESENT APPROXIMATELY 70% OF OUR HOSPITAL SERVICE PATIENT POPULATION, AND 42% OF THE OVERALL POPULATION (261,591 OF 620,168) OF OUR 22-COUNTY SERVICE AREA. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT IN ADDITION TO THE COMPASS NOW 2021 REPORT, THE 22-COUNTY HEALTH INDICATOR REPORT WAS GENERATED, HTTPS://WWW.GUNDERSENHEALTH.ORG/DOCUMENT/22296. TO IDENTIFY THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THE BROADER GUNDERSEN HEALTH SYSTEM'S 22-COUNTY SERVICE AREA, ANALYSIS OF PUBLICLY AVAILABLE DATA WAS COMPLETED. SECONDARY DATA - INCLUDING POPULATION DEMOGRAPHICS, MORTALITY, MORBIDITY, HEALTH BEHAVIOR, AND CLINICAL CARE - WERE USED TO IDENTIFY AND PRIORITIZE SIGNIFICANT COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IN EACH COUNTY. POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS, SOCIOECONOMIC, AND HEALTH STATUS DATA WERE ALSO EXAMINED. COMMUNITY-LEVEL DATA WERE COMPARED TO THE STATE, NATION, AND HEALTHY PEOPLE 2030 BENCHMARKS, WHEN AVAILABLE, TO HELP IDENTIFY KEY HEALTH ISSUES IN EACH COUNTY. A SUMMARY OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT CAN BE FOUND HERE: HTTPS://WWW.GUNDERSENHEALTH.ORG/DOCUMENT/22291. STUDY METHODS FOR THE COMPASS NOW 2021 REPORT INCLUDED 1) ANALYSIS OF COMMUNITY INDICATORS FROM VARIOUS LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL SOURCES (RELYING HEAVILY ON COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN POPULATION HEALTH INSTITUTE). 2) COMMUNITY INSIGHTS PROVIDED BY RESPONDENTS TO A RANDOM HOUSEHOLD SURVEY, SUPPLEMENTAL CONVENIENCE SURVEY AND KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS; 3) PRIORITIZATION OF THE TOP 5 NEEDS FACILITATED FOR THE 6 COUNTY STAKEHOLDER GROUPS. THE STUDY WAS CONDUCTED IN 2020 AND 2021 UNDER THE DIRECTION OF GREAT RIVERS UNITED WAY, WITH TECHNICAL SUPPORT FROM A CONTRACTED CONSULTANT (COMMUNITY HEALTH SOLUTIONS). THE STUDY WAS GUIDED BY A COMPASS NOW STEERING COMMITTEE COMPRISED OF STAKEHOLDERS FROM PUBLIC HEALTH, HEALTH CARE, AND OTHER COMMUNITY SECTORS. THE STEERING COMMITTEE MEMBERS PROVIDED GUIDANCE ON THE STUDY SCOPE AND METHODS, INCLUDING THE ADJUSTMENTS MADE IN RESPONSE TO COVID-19. THE STEERING COMMITTEE MEMBERS ALSO PROVIDED LIAISONS TO ENGAGE COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS IN PROMOTING PARTICIPATION IN THE CONVENIENCE SURVEY CONDUCTED FOR THE STUDY. HOSPITALS REPRESENTED ON THE STEERING COMMITTEE INCLUDED GUNDERSEN MEDICAL CENTER, MAYO CLINIC HEALTH SYSTEM, VERNON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, GUNDERSEN ST JOSEPH'S HOSPITAL, GUNDERSEN TRI-COUNTY HOSPITAL. IN ADDITION, TOMAH MEMORIAL HOSPITAL WAS CONSULTED AND PARTICIPATED IN THE COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS. OTHER COMMITTEE MEMBERS REPRESENTED THE SIX COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENTS FROM BUFFALO, TREMPEALEAU, LA CROSSE, VERNON, AND MONROE COUNTIES IN WISCONSIN, AND HOUSTON COUNTY IN MINNESOTA. COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTED INCLUDED THE GREAT RIVERS UNITED WAY, APTIV, AND COULEECAP WITH ADDITIONAL CONSULTATION FROM LA CROSSE SCHOOL DISTRICT, LA CROSSE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION, LA CROSSE MEDICAL HEALTH SCIENCE CONSORTIUM AND UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-LA CROSSE. ALL INDIVIDUALS ARE LISTED BY NAME IN THE REPORT. COMMUNITY DEMOGRAPHICS FOR THE COMPASS NOW 2021 REPORT WERE ANALYZED AND MAPPED USING DATA AND SOFTWARE FROM ESRI, A COMMERCIAL PROVIDER OF COMMUNITY DATA. DATA COMPILED INCLUDED A DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE AND POPULATION ESTIMATES AND PROJECTIONS. A SUMMARY OF COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS WAS DESCRIBED INCLUDING HEALTH OUTCOMES, LENGTH OF LIFE, QUALITY OF LIFE, HEALTH BEHAVIORS AND CONCERNS, CLINICAL/HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL/ECONOMIC FACTORS, AND PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT. COMMUNITY SURVEY RESPONDENTS RATED VARIOUS ASPECTS OF THESE MODULES.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 5 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - GUNDERSEN LUTHERAN MEDICAL CENTER, INC.. A RANDOM HOUSEHOLD SURVEY (RHS) OF COMMUNITY RESIDENTS WAS CONDUCTED IN JULY-SEPTEMBER OF 2020. THE SURVEY WAS MAILED TO 6,000 RANDOMLY SELECTED HOUSEHOLDS USING A SAMPLING STRATEGY DESIGNED TO PRODUCE A TARGET NUMBER OF AT LEAST 100 SURVEY RESPONSES FROM EACH OF THE SIX COUNTIES. IN ADDITION, WITHIN EACH COUNTY THE MAIL-OUT WAS DESIGNED TO OVER-SAMPLE FROM CENSUS TRACTS WITH RELATIVELY LOW INCOME TO HELP ASSURE THAT LOWER-INCOME COMMUNITY RESIDENTS WERE REPRESENTED. GREAT RIVERS UNITED WAY STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS ENTERED THE SURVEY DATA INTO A QUALTRICS SURVEY PORTAL PROVIDED BY COMMUNITY HEALTH SOLUTIONS. A TOTAL OF 713 RHS RESPONDENTS RETURNED THEIR SURVEYS, FOR A RESPONSE RATE OF 12%. FOCUSING ON RESPONSES BY COUNTY, AT LEAST 91 SURVEYS WERE RETURNED FOR EACH JURISDICTION. COMPARED TO POPULATION ESTIMATES FOR THE REGION AS A WHOLE, THE RHS RESPONSES INCLUDED A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF OLDER ADULTS THAN THE POPULATION AS A WHOLE AND SKEWED TOWARD RESPONDENTS SELF-IDENTIFYING AS FEMALE AND OF WHITE RACE. THE HOUSEHOLD INCOME PROFILE FOR RHS RESPONDENTS WAS FAIRLY REPRESENTATIVE OF THE POPULATION AS A WHOLE, WITH SLIGHTLY MORE REPRESENTATION AT LOWER INCOME LEVELS. A SUPPLEMENTAL CONVENIENCE SURVEY (CS) WAS CONDUCTED IN OCTOBER-NOVEMBER 2020. THE PURPOSE OF THE CS WAS TO GENERATE ADDITIONAL SURVEY RESPONSES FROM POPULATIONS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN UNDER-REPRESENTED IN THE RHS. THE CS WAS PRIMARILY CONDUCTED USING MIXED METHODS, AND RESPONDENTS COULD EITHER COMPLETE THEIR SURVEY ONLINE OR SUBMIT A PAPER COPY OF THEIR SURVEY RESPONSE. ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDED IN THE CONVENIENCE SURVEY PROCESS INCLUDED THOSE REPRESENTING PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES, LOW-INCOME POPULATION, CHILDREN-YOUTH-FAMILIES, RACIAL AND ETHNIC MINORITIES, VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY. GREAT RIVERS UNITED WAY STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS ENTERED PAPER SURVEY RESPONSES INTO A QUALTRICS SURVEY PORTAL PROVIDED BY COMMUNITY HEALTH SOLUTIONS. A TOTAL OF 510 CS RESPONSES WERE RECEIVED, WITH MORE THAN HALF COMING FROM LA CROSSE COUNTY. COMPARED TO THE RHS, THE CS YIELDED HIGHER REPRESENTATION OF ADULTS UNDER AGE 45, WOMEN, MINORITY POPULATIONS, AND MIDDLE-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS. THE CS RESULTS ARE PRESENTED ALONGSIDE THE RHS RESULTS THROUGHOUT THE REPORT TO PROVIDE A MULTI-METHOD PROFILE OF SURVEY RESPONSES. THE TWO SURVEYS WERE NOT COMBINED BECAUSE THEY ARE BASED ON TWO FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT SAMPLING STRATEGIES. THE ASSESSMENT TEAM COLLABORATED WITH LOCAL PARTNERS TO ORGANIZE A SERIES OF COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDER VIRTUAL MEETINGS WITH STAKEHOLDERS FROM EACH OF THE SIX COUNTIES IN THE STUDY REGION. THE PURPOSE OF THE MEETINGS WAS TO GATHER ADDITIONAL INSIGHT ABOUT PRIORITY NEEDS AND ACTION IDEAS FROM A LOCAL PERSPECTIVE. THE INVITED PARTICIPANTS INCLUDED REPRESENTATIVES FROM LOCAL BUSINESSES, EDUCATION, FAITH, GOVERNMENT, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, AND NONPROFIT AGENCIES. THESE INDIVIDUALS HAVE FIRST-HAND KNOWLEDGE OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND SOCIAL NEEDS OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE COMMUNITIES. A TOTAL OF 191 INDIVIDUALS PARTICIPATED IN THE VARIOUS COUNTY MEETINGS. THE MEETINGS WERE FACILITATED VIRTUALLY SO THAT PARTICIPANTS COULD ATTEND WHILE MAINTAINING SOCIAL DISTANCING FOR THE PANDEMIC.

Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 13 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - GUNDERSEN LUTHERAN MEDICAL CENTER, INC.. GHS PATIENTS NOT MEETING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY THRESHOLDS MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES WHEN GHS MEDICAL BILLS WOULD RESULT IN SEVERE FINANCIAL HARDSHIP. PATIENTS, OR THEIR GUARANTORS, MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR CATASTROPHIC CARE ASSISTANCE IF THEY HAVE INCURRED OUT-OF-POCKET OBLIGATIONS RESULTING FROM MEDICAL SERVICES PROVIDED BY GHS THAT EXCEED 25% OF FAMILY INCOME AND HAVE ASSETS BELOW THE EQUIVALENT OF 600% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL THRESHOLD. PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY: GHS UNDERSTANDS THAT NOT ALL PATIENTS ARE ABLE TO COMPLETE A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION OR COMPLY WITH REQUESTS FOR DOCUMENTATION. THERE MAY BE INSTANCES UNDER WHICH A PATIENT'S QUALIFICATION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS ESTABLISHED WITHOUT COMPLETING THE FORMAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION. OTHER INFORMATION MAY BE UTILIZED BY GHS TO DETERMINE WHETHER A PATIENT'S ACCOUNT IS UNCOLLECTIBLE AND THIS INFORMATION WILL BE USED TO DETERMINE PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY. PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY MAY BE GRANTED TO PATIENTS BASED ON THEIR ELIGIBILITY FOR OTHER PROGRAMS OR LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES SUCH AS: 1. PATIENTS OR GUARANTORS WHO HAVE DECLARED BANKRUPTCY. IN CASES INVOLVING BANKRUPTCY, ONLY THE ACCOUNT BALANCE AS OF THE DATE THE BANKRUPTCY IS FILED WILL BE WRITTEN OFF. 2. PATIENTS OR GUARANTORS WHO ARE DECEASED WITH NO ESTATE IN PROBATE. 3. PATIENTS OR GUARANTORS DETERMINED TO BE HOMELESS. 4. ACCOUNTS RETURNED BY THE COLLECTION AGENCY AS UNCOLLECTIBLE DUE TO ANY OF THE ABOVE REASONS. 5. PATIENTS OR GUARANTORS WHO QUALIFY FOR STATE MEDICAID PROGRAMS WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE FOR ANY COST-SHARING OBLIGATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROGRAM OR UNCOVERED SERVICES. GHS UNDERSTANDS THAT CERTAIN PATIENTS MAY BE NON-RESPONSIVE TO GHS'S APPLICATION PROCESS. UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, GHS MAY UTILIZE OTHER SOURCES OF INFORMATION TO MAKE AN INDIVIDUAL ASSESSMENT OF FINANCIAL NEED. THIS INFORMATION WILL ENABLE GHS TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION ON THE FINANCIAL NEED OF NON-RESPONSIVE PATIENTS UTILIZING THE BEST ESTIMATES AVAILABLE IN THE ABSENCE OF INFORMATION PROVIDED DIRECTLY BY THE PATIENT. GHS MAY UTILIZE A THIRD-PARTY TO CONDUCT AN ELECTRONIC REVIEW OF PATIENT INFORMATION TO ASSESS FINANCIAL NEED. THIS REVIEW UTILIZES A HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY-RECOGNIZED MODEL THAT IS BASED ON PUBLIC RECORD DATABASES. THIS PREDICTIVE MODEL INCORPORATES PUBLIC RECORD DATA TO CALCULATE A SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL CAPACITY SCORE THAT INCLUDES ESTIMATES FOR INCOME, ASSETS AND LIQUIDITY. THE ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY IS DESIGNED TO ASSESS EACH PATIENT TO THE SAME STANDARDS AND IS CALIBRATED AGAINST HISTORICAL APPROVALS FOR GHS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE TRADITIONAL APPLICATION PROCESS. THE ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY, WHEN UTILIZED, WILL BE DEPLOYED PRIOR TO BAD DEBT ASSIGNMENT AFTER ALL OTHER ELIGIBILITY AND PAYMENT SOURCES HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED. THIS ALLOWS GHS TO SCREEN ALL PATIENTS FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PRIOR TO PURSUING ANY EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS. THE DATA RETURNED FROM THIS ELECTRONIC ELIGIBILITY REVIEW WILL CONSTITUTE ADEQUATE DOCUMENTATION OF FINANCIAL NEED UNDER THIS POLICY. WHEN ELECTRONIC ENROLLMENT IS USED AS THE BASIS FOR PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY, THE HIGHEST DISCOUNT LEVELS WILL BE GRANTED FOR ELIGIBLE SERVICES FOR RETROSPECTIVE DATES OF SERVICE ONLY. IF A PATIENT DOES NOT QUALIFY UNDER THE ELECTRONIC ENROLLMENT PROCESS, THE PATIENT MAY STILL BE CONSIDERED UNDER THE TRADITIONAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION PROCESS. GHS WILL PROVIDE PATIENTS NOT QUALIFYING FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH THIS PROCESS WITH A WRITTEN NOTICE INFORMING THEM THAT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE. THIS NOTICE WILL INCLUDE A PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AND ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN IF AN APPLICATION IS NOT SUBMITTED OR THE OUTSTANDING BALANCE PAID. PATIENT ACCOUNTS GRANTED PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY WILL BE RECLASSIFIED UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. THEY WILL NOT BE SENT TO COLLECTION, WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO FURTHER COLLECTION ACTIONS, AND WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN THE HOSPITAL'S BAD DEBT EXPENSE.

Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Bad Debt Expense excluded from financial assistance calculation 22570430
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistance SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT COST IS FROM THE COST REPORT FOR CHARITY CARE AT COST. THIS IS BASED ON A COST TO CHARGE RATIO OF THE ACTUAL CHARITY CARE WRITTEN-OFF. COST TO CHARGE RATIO, AS CALCULATED USING WORKSHEET 2 METHODOLOGY TO DETERMINE THE COST OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS. MEDICAID AND OTHER MEANS TESTED PROGRAM COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSES FOLLOWED THE CALCULATION METHODOLOGY ON WORKSHEET 3. SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7B MEDICAID COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE IS CALCUATED USING COST TO CHARGE RATIO OF MEDICAID GROSS CHARGES DECREASED BY MEDICAID PROVIDER TAXES, FEES, AND DIRECT NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7E COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SERVICES AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT OPERATIONS ARE CALCULATED ON WORKSHEET 4 BASED ON COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT COST AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT OPERATIONS COST DECREASED BY COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SERVICE REVENUE. SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7F HEALTH PROFESSIONALS EDUCATION COST IS CALCUATED ON WORKSHEET 5 TO REFLECT THE MEDICAL STUDENT, INTERNS, RESIDENTS, AND FELLOWS COST DECREASED BY REIMBURSEMENTS FROM MEDICARE, MEDICAID, AND TUITION REIMBURSEMENTS. SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7I COMMUNITY (CASH) CONTRIBUTIONS ARE FUNDS PROVIDED TO NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS (INCLUDING SCHOOLS) THAT SUPPORT ACTIVITIES, PROGRAMS AND SERVICES LINKED TO GUNDERSEN LUTHERAN'S MISSION, SUPPORTING HEALTH IMPROVEMENT AND OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THE REGION. THIS SUPPORT SERVES OR SUPPORTS NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT, PROMOTE HEALTH AND WELLNESS, OR PROVIDES FOR CIVIC, COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. A SIGNIFICANT TOTAL IS DIRECTLY LINKED TO OUR COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AND SUPPORTIVE OF OUR POPULATION HEALTH COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THE WORK IS GUIDED BY THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND SERVICE ACTIVITY POLICY. A COMMITTEE REPRESENTING THE FOLLOWING DEPARTMENTS - ADMINISTRATION, OFFICE OF POPULATION HEALTH, EXTERNAL AFFAIRS, BUSINESS HEALTH SERVICES, THE GUNDERSEN MEDICAL FOUNDATION (INCLUDES CHILDREN'S MIRACLE NETWORK HOSPITALS), CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS, MARKETING, FAMILY MEDICINE, AND HUMAN RESOURCES (RECRUITMENT AND DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION) PLUS COMMUNITY MEMBERS - MEET BI-MONTHLY TO DETERMINE APPROPRIATE DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS. DECISIONS ARE GUIDED BY ESTABLISHED CRITERIA THAT PROVIDE A FRAMEWORK FOR THE COMMITTEE TO OBJECTIVELY DETERMINE THE OUTCOME OF ORGANIZATIONS' REQUESTS. IN 2023, $967,272 WAS APPROVED THAT SUPPORTED REQUESTS THAT INCLUDED COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES RELATED TO THE 2022-2024 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, THAT INCLUDE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH INCLUDING HOMELESSNESS, ACES AND RTIC (ADVERSE CHILD EXPERIENCES AND RESILIENCE AND TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE), CHRONIC DISEASE, MENTAL HEALTH/SUBSTANCE ABUSE, AND OTHER SUPPORT FOR VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. SOME APPROVED REQUESTS ARE FUNDED OVER A MULTI-YEAR PERIOD. SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7 COLUMN (F) THE PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED BY DIVIDING THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT COST BY TOTAL HOSPITAL EXPENSES OF $1,083,041,617. THE TOTAL HOSPITAL EXPENSES EXCLUDE THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE OF $22,570,430.
Schedule H, Part II Community Building Activities THE GUNDERSEN HEALTH SYSTEM, WHICH INCLUDES GUNDERSEN LUTHERAN MEDICAL CENTER, IS COMMITTED TO OUR COMMUNITIES AS EXPRESSED IN OUR MISSION: WE DISTINGUISH OURSELVES THROUGH EXCELLENCE IN PATIENT CARE, EDUCATION, RESEARCH, AND IMPROVED HEALTH IN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. THE COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES ARE INCLUDED IN COMMUNITY SERVICE REPORTING WHICH ARE PROGRAMS OR SERVICES THAT SUPPORT OUR POPULATION HEALTH INITIATIVES, BENEFITING COMMUNITIES BY ADDRESSING IDENTIFIED NEED THROUGH EFFECTIVE HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMMING, ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION, CORPORATE CITIZENSHIP, AND VOLUNTEERISM. SUPPORT IS PROVIDED THROUGH CONTRIBUTION TO OTHER ORGANIZATIONS, OR THROUGH PROGRAMMING DELIVERED BY GUNDERSEN. WHENEVER POSSIBLE, THIS TYPE OF PROGRAMMING IS EVALUATED TO IDENTIFY THE IMPACT ON POPULATION HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE. VERIFICATION OF ADDRESSING COMMUNITY NEEDS IS DOCUMENTED IN THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. AS A LARGER SYSTEM, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES ENCOMPASS ALL CORPORATIONS. LEADERSHIP IN COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT IS EVIDENCED BY OUR ACTIVITY WITH SEVERAL COMMUNITY COALITIONS AND INITIATIVES. AS WE CONSIDER OUR COMMUNITY NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE COMPASS REPORT, IT IS EVIDENT THAT HEALTH IS IMPACTED BY NOT ONLY THE TRADITIONAL SENSE OF PROVISION OF QUALITY MEDICAL SERVICES, BUT THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH WE LIVE, THE ECONOMIC CONDITION OF OUR PERSON AND FAMILY AND OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE OFFERED IN THE COMMUNITIES WHERE WE LIVE.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS OUR STARTING POINT FOR DETERMINING THE COST OF BAD DEBTS. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS CALCULATED FOLLOWING THE METHODOLOGY ON WORKSHEET 2. BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS THE PRODUCT OF THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO AND THE NET PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS FROM THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense Methodology THE PATIENTS THAT EXCEED THE 400% FPG, WHEN ADDITIONAL CRITERIA SUCH AS CATASTROPHIC MEDICAL COSTS ARE CONSIDERED, HAPPENS WHEN ELIGIBLE PATIENTS WITH ANNUALIZED FAMILY INCOMES IN EXCESS OF 400% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, ASSETS OF LESS THAN THE EQUIVALENT OF 600% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, AND FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS RESULTING FROM MEDICAL SERVICES PROVIDED BY GHS IN EXCESS OF 25% OF THE FAMILY INCOME. THE DATA USED IS FROM THE US CENSUS BUREAU, 2013-2017 AMERICAN COMMUNITY SURVEY (ACS) 5-YEAR DATA SET FOR THE WISCONSIN AND MINNESOTA COUNTIES. WE OBTAINED THE AVERAGE OF SEVERAL COUNTIES BY USING THE INFORMATION AT THE 3.00-3.99 (399%) OF FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL) AND BELOW. THE NEXT RANGE WAS 4.00-4.99 RATIO OF INCOME TO POVERTY IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS. WE HAVE MULTIPLIED THE COUNTY AVERAGE AT 399% FPL TO THE BAD DEBT AT COST. WE DEDUCTED THE AMOUNT OF CHARITY CARE AT COST TO OBTAIN THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT AT COST TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER FAP (BUT FOR WHOM INSUFFICIENT INFORMATION WAS OBTAINED TO DETERMINE THEIR ELIGIBILITY).
Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote THE COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES FROM THIRD-PARTY PAYERS AND PATIENTS IS THE SYSTEM'S PRIMARY SOURCE OF CASH FOR OPERATIONS. THE PRIMARY COLLECTION RISKS RELATE TO UNINSURED PATIENT ACCOUNTS AND PATIENT DEDUCTIBLES AND COINSURANCE ON INSURERS' ACCOUNTS. PATIENT RECEIVABLES, INCLUDING THE PORTION FOR WHICH A THIRD-PARTY PAYER IS RESPONSIBLE, ARE CARRIED AT NET REALIZABLE VALUE, DETERMINED BY THE ORIGINAL CHARGE FOR THE SERVICE PROVIDED LESS AN ESTIMATE MADE FOR CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS OR DISCOUNTS PROVIDED TO THIRD-PARTY PAYERS. PATIENT RECEIVABLES DUE DIRECTLY FROM PATIENTS ARE CARRIED ON THE ACCOMPANYING CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS AT THE ORIGINAL CHARGE FOR THE SERVICE PROVIDED LESS AMOUNTS COVERED BY THIRD-PARTY PAYERS, ALLOWANCES FOR OTHER DISCOUNTS, AND AN ALLOWANCE FOR PRICE CONCESSIONS. THE SYSTEM DOES NOT CHARGE INTEREST ON PAST-DUE RECEIVABLES. RECEIVABLES ARE WRITTEN OFF AFTER COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SYSTEM'S POLICIES. RECOVERIES OF RECEIVABLES PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN OFF ARE RECORDED AS A REDUCTION OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES 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 ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. THE ANALYSIS IS PERFORMED USING A HINDSIGHT CALCULATION THAT UTILIZES WRITE-OFF DATA FOR ALL PAYOR CLASSES DURING A DETERMINED TIME PERIOD TO CALCULATE THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AT A POINT IN TIME. THE SYSTEM GRANTS CREDIT WITHOUT COLLATERAL TO PATIENTS, MOST OF WHOM ARE LOCAL RESIDENTS AND ARE INSURED UNDER THIRD-PARTY PAYOR AGREEMENTS. AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2023, AMOUNTS DUE FROM MEDICARE REPRESENTED 22.6% OF THE SYSTEM'S NET PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs THE MEDICARE COST REPORT IS USED TO DETERMINE ALLOWABLE COSTS. THE UNREIMBURSED MEDICARE COSTS ON PART III, SECTION B OF SCHEDULE H ARE ALLOWABLE COSTS PER THE MEDICARE COST REPORT. THIS CALCULATION IS LIMITED TO PATIENTS WHO ARE COVERED UNDER THE MEDICARE FEE FOR SERVICE PLAN AND DOES NOT INCLUDE THOSE COVERED BY THE MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLANS. IT ALSO DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE HOSPITAL TO PATIENTS COVERED UNDER THE MEDICARE FEE FOR SERVICE PLAN. IT EXCLUDES HOSPICE SERVICES, AMBULANCE SERVICES, CLINICAL LABORATORY SERVICES, AND A FEW OTHER MISCELLANEOUS SERVICES. INCORPORATING ALL SERVICES TO ALL MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, THE UNREIMBURSED COST FOR MEDICARE IS $141,873,642. THE MEDICARE COSTS ARE CALCULATED DIFFERENTLY THAN THE 990 UNREIMBURSED MEDICARE COSTS OF $37,750,323. MEDICARE SHORTFALL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE OUR MISSION IS TO PROMOTE HEALTH IN THE COMMUNITY AND WE DO NOT LIMIT THE CARE AVAILABLE TO ANY PATIENTS, INCLUDING THOSE COVERED BY MEDICARE. WE ARE RELIEVING A GOVERNMENT BURDEN BY PROVIDING CARE TO MEDICARE PATIENTS EVEN THOUGH COSTS EXCEED REIMBURSEMENTS BY $142 MILLION. TAX-EXEMPT HOSPITALS ARE EXPECTED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE MEDICARE PROGRAM.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance PURSUANT TO SELF-PAY BILLING & COLLECTION POLICY, NO EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS WILL BE PURSUED AGAINST A PATIENT, OR PATIENT GUARANTOR, BEFORE REASONABLE EFFORTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE PATIENT OR GUARANTOR IS ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE GHS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY (FAP). NO ACCOUNT WILL BE SUBJECT TO BAD DEBT COLLECTION ACTIONS, OR ECA, WITHIN 120 DAYS OF THE FIRST POST-DISCHARGE STATEMENT BEFORE GHS HAS MADE REASONABLE EFFORTS TO DETERMINE WHETHER THAT PATIENT IS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THIS 120 DAY TIMEFRAME MAY BE ABBREVIATED IF A DETERMINATION HAS BEEN MADE ON FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, A PAYMENT PLAN HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED AND AGREED TO BY THE PATIENT OR GUARANTOR, AND THE PATIENT OR GUARANTOR IS NO LONGER COMPLYING WITH THE PAYMENT PLAN. NO COLLECTION ACTIONS WILL BE PURSUED AGAINST A PATIENT IF THE PATIENT, OR GUARANTOR, HAS PROVIDED DOCUMENTATION SHOWING THAT HE OR SHE HAS APPLIED FOR COVERAGE UNDER MEDICAID, OR OTHER PUBLICLY SPONSORED HEALTH PROGRAMS, THAT MAY PAY THE OUTSTANDING CLAIM AND FOR WHICH AN ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION IS STILL PENDING. PRIOR TO SENDING A PATIENT'S ACCOUNT TO A COLLECTION AGENCY GHS WILL MAKE REASONABLE EFFORTS TO PROVIDE INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND WILL MAIL A MINIMUM OF THREE (3) WRITTEN STATEMENTS TO THE PATIENT OR GUARANTOR. EACH STATEMENT WILL INCLUDE CONSPICUOUS NOTICE OF THE GHS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, TELEPHONE NUMBER TO CALL FOR HELP, AND DIRECT WEBSITE ADDRESS. IF ALL EFFORTS TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE PATIENT, OR PATIENT GUARANTOR, ARE UNSUCCESSFUL, AND A CORRECT ADDRESS FOR UNDELIVERABLE MAIL IS NOT FOUND, ACCOUNTS WILL BE SENT TO A COLLECTION AGENCY. WITHIN 240 DAYS FROM THE FIRST POST-DISCHARGE STATEMENT, IF A PATIENT, OR GUARANTOR, APPLIES FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, THE APPLICATION WILL BE ACCEPTED AND COLLECTION ACTIONS WILL CEASE WHILE AN ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION IS BEING MADE. IF THE APPLICANT IS APPROVED FOR FREE CARE, NO FURTHER ACTIONS WILL BE TAKEN TO COLLECT ON THE AMOUNT. IF THE APPLICANT IS DENIED FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE OR IS APPROVED FOR DISCOUNTED CARE, STEPS WILL BE TAKEN TO RESOLVE THE OUTSTANDING OBLIGATION. IF THE ACCOUNT IS NOT RESOLVED OR ARRANGEMENTS TO RESOLVE THE ACCOUNT ARE NOT MADE, ADDITIONAL COLLECTION ACTIONS WILL BE PURSUED. IF AN INDIVIDUAL SUBMITS AN INCOMPLETE APPLICATION DURING THE APPLICATION PERIOD, GHS MUST (I) SUSPEND ALL COLLECTION ACTIONS, (II) PROVIDE THE INDIVIDUAL WITH A WRITTEN NOTICE THAT DESCRIBES THE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND/OR DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED UNDER THE FAP OR APPLICATION FORM THAT MUST BE SUBMITTED TO COMPLETE THE FAP APPLICATION AND (III) PROVIDE GHS'S CONTACT INFORMATION. THE APPLICATION WILL REMAIN ACTIVE FOR 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THE LETTER WAS MAILED TO THE APPLICANT REQUESTING THIS INFORMATION. IF THE APPLICANT HAS NOT RESPONDED WITHIN THE 30 DAY TIMEFRAME, THE APPLICATION WILL BE DENIED.
