Form and Line Reference Explanation
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 5 Facility A, 1 Facility A, 1 - THIS REPORTING GROUP INCLUDES THE FACILITIES LISTED ON LINES 1, 2, 3 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 OF PART V, SECTION A.. Allegheny Health Network (AHN) executed a CHNA process that included collecting primary and secondary data. A formation of a working group consisting of members from AHN's Community Affairs oversaw the CHNA along with the project consultant, Tripp Umbach. Representatives from each AHN hospital facility and representatives from departments within AHN formed a steering committee that provided high-level feedback and input on primary and secondary data collected. Organizations and community stakeholders within the primary service area were engaged in identifying the needs of the community. Community organizations, government agencies, educational systems, and health and human services entities were engaged throughout the CHNA. The comprehensive primary data collection phase resulted in contributions from a multitude of regional community stakeholders from organizations. Input from the community was sought through a customized multi-language community survey, stakeholder interviews, and a provider survey. The community survey was employed to collect input from populations within Allegheny Health Network's service area to identify health risk factors and health needs in the community. Working with leadership from Community Affairs, the community survey was promoted on social media platforms, hospital websites, relationships with community-based organizations and clinics. Collecting surveys from community residents whose primary language was not English was an essential driver of the initiative. The community survey was available in English, Spanish, Nepalese, Chinese, and Arabic. The telephone interviews completed with community stakeholders as part of the CHNA phase helped to understand the changing community health environment. The interviews offered stakeholders an opportunity to provide feedback on the needs of the region they serve and other information relevant to the study. Community stakeholders targeted for interviews encompassed a wide variety of professional backgrounds, including: 1. Businesses 2. County and state government representatives 3. Economic development 4. Education 5. Faith-based communities 6. Foundations/philanthropic 7. Health care representatives 8. Law enforcement 9. Non-profits 10. Representatives of underserved populations 11. Social service representatives Within the interview and discussion process, overall health needs, themes, and concerns were presented. The qualitative data collected are the perceptions and opinions from community stakeholders as part of the CHNA process. The information provides insight and adds great depth to the qualitative data. Community stakeholders interviewed represented the following organizations: * AARP Work Search * AHN Cancer Institute * AHN Center for Inclusion Health * AHN Jefferson Front Door Initiative * AHN Westfield Board * Allegheny Center Alliance Church * Allegheny County Health Department (two community stakeholders interviewed) * Allegheny Township * Allen Place Community Services Inc. * Alliance for Nonprofit Resources Inc. * AWARE Domestic Violence Agency (Sexual Assault) * Bhutanese Community Association of Pittsburgh (BCAP) * Bloomfield Development Corporation * Buhl Regional Health Foundation of Mercer County * Butler County Tourism and Convention Bureau * Center for Community Resources * Erie County Executive * Erie County Health Department * Grove City Area United Way * Grove City Chamber of Commerce * Grove City School District * Grove Manor Corporation * Harvest Bible Chapel Pittsburgh North * Hefren-Tillotson Inc. * Heritage Community Initiatives * Jefferson Regional Foundation * Lawrenceville United Inc. * Light of Life Rescue Mission * Martin Luther King Center * Mayor of Erie * Mercer County Agency on Aging * Mercy Center for Women * Mon Valley Initiative * Monroeville Foundation * Mt. Olive Baptist Church * Municipality of Monroeville * Neighborhood Learning Alliance * Neighborhood Resilience Project * North Hills Community Outreach * North Way Christian Community Church * Northside Leadership Conference * Penn State University * Perry Hilltop Citizens Council * Pittsburgh North Regional Chamber of Commerce * Primary Health Network * Project Destiny Inc. * Saint Mary's Home of Erie * Salvation Army * Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest PA * Slippery Rock University * South Hills Interfaith Movement (SHIM) * Temple David * The Building Block of Natrona * The Lord's Church of Pittsburgh * United Way of Southwestern Pennsylvania * Walnut Grill Restaurant * Westfield Area Central School Board * Westfield Memorial Hospital Foundation * YMCA of Franklin and Grove City In addition, a provider survey was implemented to collect data from providers from the hospital's service areas and region to identify the community's needs and vulnerable populations and those partners/organizations that will be instrumental in addressing prioritized needs.

Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 5 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - WESTFIELD MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC.. Allegheny Health Network (AHN) executed a CHNA process that included collecting primary and secondary data. A formation of a working group consisting of members from AHN's Community Affairs oversaw the CHNA along with the project consultant, Tripp Umbach. Representatives from each AHN hospital facility and representatives from departments within AHN formed a steering committee that provided high-level feedback and input on primary and secondary data collected. Organizations and community stakeholders within the primary service area were engaged in identifying the needs of the community. Community organizations, government agencies, educational systems, and health and human services entities were engaged throughout the CHNA. The comprehensive primary data collection phase resulted in contributions from a multitude of regional community stakeholders from organizations. Input from the community was sought through a customized multi-language community survey, stakeholder interviews, and a provider survey. The community survey was employed to collect input from populations within Allegheny Health Network's service area to identify health risk factors and health needs in the community. Working with leadership from Community Affairs, the community survey was promoted on social media platforms, hospital websites, relationships with community-based organizations, and clinics. Collecting surveys from community residents whose primary language was not English was an essential driver of the initiative. The community survey was available in English, Spanish, Nepalese, Chinese, and Arabic. The telephone interviews completed with community stakeholders as part of the CHNA phase helped to understand the changing community health environment. The interviews offered stakeholders an opportunity to provide feedback on the needs of the region they serve and other information relevant to the study. Overall, 59 community stakeholder interviews were conducted for AHN in July-October 2021. Community stakeholders targeted for interviews encompassed a wide variety of professional backgrounds, including: 1. Businesses 2. County and state government representatives 3. Economic development 4. Education 5. Faith-based communities 6. Foundations/philanthropic 7. Health care representatives 8. Law enforcement 9. Non-profits 10. Representatives of underserved populations 11. Social service representatives Within the interview and discussion process, overall health needs, themes, and concerns were presented. The qualitative data collected are the perceptions and opinions from community stakeholders as part of the CHNA process. The information provides insight and adds great depth to the qualitative data. Community stakeholders interviewed represented the following organizations: * AARP Work Search * AHN Cancer Institute * AHN Center for Inclusion Health * AHN Jefferson Front Door Initiative * AHN Westfield Board * Allegheny Center Alliance Church * Allegheny County Health Department (two community stakeholders interviewed) * Allegheny Township * Allen Place Community Services Inc. * Alliance for Nonprofit Resources Inc. * AWARE Domestic Violence Agency (Sexual Assault) * Bhutanese Community Association of Pittsburgh (BCAP) * Bloomfield Development Corporation * Buhl Regional Health Foundation of Mercer County * Butler County Tourism and Convention Bureau * Center for Community Resources * Erie County Executive * Erie County Health Department * Grove City Area United Way * Grove City Chamber of Commerce * Grove City School District * Grove Manor Corporation * Harvest Bible Chapel Pittsburgh North * Hefren-Tillotson Inc. * Heritage Community Initiatives * Jefferson Regional Foundation * Lawrenceville United Inc. * Light of Life Rescue Mission * Martin Luther King Center * Mayor of Erie * Mercer County Agency on Aging * Mercy Center for Women * Mon Valley Initiative * Monroeville Foundation * Mt.

Providers internal and external to Allegheny Health Network received a survey link. Community input was aligned with secondary data and presented to the CHNA Steering Committee as a framework for assessing current community needs, identifying new/emerging health issues, and advancing health improvement efforts to address identified needs.

PATIENTS WHO MEET THE CRITERIA AS ESTABLISHED IN THE POLICY WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INCLUDING FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE. A PATIENT MUST BE A CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OR A LAWFUL PERMANENT RESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND A RESIDENT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, OR NEW YORK STATE FOR WESTFIELD MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. INTERNATIONAL PATIENTS OR UNAUTHORIZED IMMIGRANTS MAY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IF THEY ARE ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID. THERE MAY BE SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES FOR OUT-OF-STATE AND INTERNATIONAL PATIENTS (E.G., AUTO ACCIDENT, EMERGENT ILLNESS) UNDER WHICH, AT AHN'S SOLE DISCRETION, SUCH INDIVIDUALS COULD BE CONSIDERED FOR QUALIFICATION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE POLICY. THE PATIENT/GUARANTOR MUST BE ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE A GOOD FAITH EFFORT IN HAVING APPLIED FOR AND COMPLIED WITH AVAILABLE AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE BENEFIT ALTERNATIVES (E.G., MEDICAID ELIGIBILITY AND OTHER ACA SUBSIDIZED HEALTHCARE BENEFIT PROGRAMS), OR PROVIDE EVIDENCE THAT COVERAGE FOR MEDICAID OR OTHER PROGRAMS WOULD NOT BE GRANTED BEFORE BECOMING ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE. THE PATIENT MUST SUBMIT A COMPLETED APPLICATION FOR CHARITY CARE WITHIN THE APPLICATION PERIOD. AHN WILL MAKE REASONABLE EFFORTS TO DETERMINE WHETHER AN INDIVIDUAL IS ELIGIBLE FOR OUTSIDE ASSISTANCE BEFORE ENGAGING AN EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTION (ECAS) AGAINST THE INDIVIDUAL. REASONABLE EFFORTS FOR PURPOSES OF MEETING THESE REQUIREMENTS INCLUDE, A NOTIFICATION PERIOD AND AN APPLICATION PERIOD. THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD IS THE PERIOD IN WHICH AHN MUST NOTIFY AN INDIVIDUAL ABOUT THIS POLICY AND BEGINS ON THE DATE CARE IS PROVIDED TO THE INDIVIDUAL AND ENDS ON THE 120TH DAY AFTER AHN PROVIDES THE PATIENT WITH THE FIRST BILLING STATEMENT FOR THE CARE. IF THE INDIVIDUAL HAS FAILED TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION BY THE END OF THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD, AHN MAY ENGAGE IN EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS AGAINST THE INDIVIDUAL. HOWEVER, AHN WILL ACCEPT AND PROCESS APPLICATIONS SUBMITTED BY AN INDIVIDUAL DURING THE LONGER APPLICATION PERIOD THAT ENDS ON THE 240TH DAY AFTER AHN PROVIDES THE INDIVIDUAL WITH THE FIRST BILLING STATEMENT FOR THE CARE. PATIENTS WHO FAIL TO SUBMIT A COMPLETE APPLICATION OR FAIL TO RETURN THE APPLICATION INCLUDING SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION AFTER 240 DAYS MAY BE DENIED DUE TO FAILURE TO COMPLY. COVERAGE BY CHARITY CARE IS LIMITED TO BASIC MEDICAL CARE AND WILL ONLY APPLY TO EMERGENCY AND OTHER MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES. CHARITY CARE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE TO A PATIENT THAT REFUSES DISCHARGE AND INCURS ADDITIONAL CHARGES THAT ARE CONSIDERED MEDICALLY UNNECESSARY. CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS APPLY ONLY TO DRUGS THAT ARE ADMINISTERED DURING AN INPATIENT STAY OR OUTPATIENT SERVICE. THESE DISCOUNTS DO NOT APPLY TO ANY OTHER DRUGS OR MAIL ORDER PRESCRIPTIONS. CHARITY CARE WILL NOT APPLY TO SERVICES THAT ARE COVERED BY AN INSURANCE CARRIER THAT HAS DENIED SERVICES DUE TO LITIGATION, LACK OF COOPERATION FROM THE PATIENT OR ERRONEOUS INFORMATION FROM THE PATIENT. PENSION ACCOUNTS ARE EXCLUDED. ONCE A PATIENT IS APPROVED, CHARITY CARE IS GRANTED FOR A PERIOD OF SIX MONTHS BEGINNING ON THE DATE OF APPROVAL. AHN WILL APPLY CHARITY CARE ADJUSTMENTS TO PRIOR ACCOUNTS THAT ARE WITHIN 240 DAYS FROM THE FIRST POST-DISCHARGE PATIENT BILLING STATEMENT THAT TRIGGERED THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION. HOWEVER, AHN RESERVES THE RIGHT TO LIMIT RETROACTIVE APPLICATION OF CHARITY CARE FOR TIME FRAMES IN EXCESS OF WHAT IS GENERALLY REQUIRED UNDER 501(R). GENERALLY, THIS LIMITATION WOULD ONLY APPLY WHEN EXTRAORDINARY DIFFERENCES EXIST BETWEEN THE PATIENT'S CURRENT FINANCIAL CONDITION AND THEIR FINANCIAL CONDITION IN THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO APPROVAL AND WHEN SUCH DIFFERENCES ARE ALSO ACCOMPANIED BY A CLEAR INDICATION THAT SUFFICIENT FUNDS OR INCOME WERE AVAILABLE IN THE PRIOR PERIOD TO PAY OUTSTANDING MEDICAL BILLS. CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS APPLY TO PATIENT LIABILITY AMOUNTS ONLY, AND NO INSURANCE AMOUNTS WILL BE CONSIDERED. APPROVED AMOUNTS MAY BE A RESULT OF THE FOLLOWING: (1) PATIENT DOES NOT HAVE MEDICAL ASSISTANCE OR ADEQUATE INSURANCE COVERAGE; (2) PATIENT HAS EXHAUSTED HIS/HER INSURANCE BENEFITS (E.G., EXCEEDED MAXIMUM COVERED DAYS/AMOUNT, EXCEEDED MEDICARE'S LIFETIME RESERVE DAYS); (3) PATIENT HAS A PRIMARY INSURANCE CARRIER WHO HAS RENDERED PAYMENT BUT A SECONDARY LIABILITY EXISTS FOR WHICH HE/SHE DOES NOT HAVE COVERAGE; (4) PATIENT IS CONSIDERED INDIGENT DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF MEDICAL DEBT INCURRED IN COMPARISON TO THE PATIENT'S FINANCIAL CIRCUMSTANCES; (5) DECEASED PATIENT'S ESTATE WILL EXHAUST PRIOR TO PAYMENT OF THE FULL PATIENT BALANCE; (6) PATIENT HAS PROVIDED A FORMAL BANKRUPTCY JUDGMENT THAT IMPACTS THE DATE ON WHICH SERVICES WERE PROVIDED ALONG WITH UNDATED INCOME/ASSET INFORMATION; (7) PATIENT IS HOMELESS OR HAS PROVEN TO BE A RESIDENT OF A HOMELESS SHELTER; (8) PATIENT HAS PROVIDED A FORMAL AFFIDAVIT OR DOCUMENTATION REGARDING INCOME/ASSET INFORMATION AND/OR HOMELESS STATUS THAT QUALIFIES THE PATIENT FOR CHARITY CARE; OR (9) THE PATIENT HAS MEDICAID PART PAY BALANCES AND QUALIFIES FOR CHARITY CARE. THERE ARE THREE PRINCIPAL FINANCIAL CRITERIA THAT ARE APPLIED AS FOLLOWS IN ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER A PATIENT HAS ECONOMIC MEANS TO PAY AND WHETHER THAT PATIENT MEETS ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THIS POLICY, ASSUMING OTHER CRITERIA IN THE POLICY (SUCH AS RESIDENCY) ARE ALSO MET. (1) FIRST, A PATIENT'S LIQUID ASSETS ARE DETERMINED (SEE EARLIER DEFINITION OF LIQUID ASSETS). IF LIQUID ASSETS EXCEED THE CALCULATED THRESHOLD LEVEL INDICATED IN APPENDIX F, THEN ALL LIQUID ASSETS ABOVE THE THRESHOLD LEVEL MUST FIRST BE USED TO SATISFY ANY OUTSTANDING BALANCE OWED TO AHN BY A PATIENT. (2) ONCE STEP ONE HAS BEEN COMPLETED, IF THE PATIENT STILL OWES A BALANCE, THEN THE PATIENT WILL BE EVALUATED ON AN INCOME BASIS. IF THE PATIENT AND/OR GUARANTOR'S HOUSEHOLD INCOME IS AT OR BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL) GUIDELINES, THEN 100% OF THE BALANCE FOR WHICH THE PATIENT IS STILL RESPONSIBLE AND FOR WHICH FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE UNDER THIS POLICY, WILL BE FORGIVEN BY AHN. NO FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE FOR A PATIENT OR A GUARANTOR WHOSE ANNUAL INCOME IS GREATER THAN 200% OF THE FPL UNLESS THEY QUALIFY UNDER MEDICAL HARDSHIP. (3) AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO STEP 2, A PATIENT MAY DEMONSTRATE MEDICAL HARDSHIP. PATIENTS THAT MEET MEDICAL HARDSHIP CRITERIA QUALIFY FOR THE SAME FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BENEFIT AS INDIVIDUALS WHOSE INCOME IS AT OR BELOW 200% OF THE FPL GUIDELINES. GENERALLY, AHN DOES NOT PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO PATIENTS WHOSE INCOME EXCEEDS 200% OF THE FPL UNLESS THEY MEET THE CRITERIA FOR MEDICAL HARDSHIP. AHN DOES NOT USE ANY PREVIOUS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATIONS TO PRESUMPTIVELY APPROVE A PATIENT FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. WHEN A PATIENT'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE HAS TERMINATED, THE PATIENT MUST REAPPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. GENERALLY, ONCE QUALIFIED, AN INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIES AND REMAINS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR A SIX-MONTH PERIOD BEFORE REQUIRING RE-QUALIFICATION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE POLICY. IN ADDITION, A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION FILED AND APPROVED AT ANY AHN HOSPITAL SHALL APPLY TO ALL AHN HOSPITALS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF WESTFIELD MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. HARDSHIP DOCUMENTATION MAY BE REQUIRED (I.E., CASES WITH EXCESSIVE MEDICATIONS, TERMINAL ILLNESS OR MULTIPLE HOSPITALIZATIONS). FOR A PATIENT THAT EXCEEDS 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES AND WHOSE ACCOUNT BALANCE EXCEEDS 25% OF THE ANNUAL HOUSEHOLD INCOME, AHN MAY CLAIM THE EXCESS BALANCE AS A HARDSHIP PROVIDED THAT THE PATIENT PROVIDES DOCUMENTATION OF INCOME, OR INCOME CAN BE DERIVED FROM OUTSIDE DATABASE SOURCES.

Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance WRITTEN DEBT COLLECTION POLICY PATIENTS THAT QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ARE PROVIDED WITH AN APPROVAL LETTER WITH THE EFFECTIVE DATES FOR THE ASSISTANCE. AT ANY TIMETIME, THE INDIVIDUAL PRESENTS FOR SERVICES WITHIN 240 DAYS FROM THE FIRST POST-DISCHARGE PATIENT BILLING STATEMENT PRECEDING AND 6 MONTHS FOLLOWING APPROVAL, THEY SHOW THE LETTER AND WILL BE REGISTERED AS A CHARITY CARE CASE. CHARITY CARE CASES ARE DESIGNATED IN THE INTERNAL COMPUTERIZED SYSTEMS WITH UNIQUE BILLING INDICATORS THAT PREVENT BILLING TO THE PATIENT. REPORTS ARE RUN TO CAPTURE THE PATIENT ACCOUNTS REGISTERED WITH THE CHARITY CARE BILLING INDICATOR SO THEY CAN BE WRITTEN OFF TO CHARITY CARE.

Schedule H, Part VI, Line 5 Promotion of community health THE HOSPITALS OF AHN PROMOTE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF THEIR RESPECTIVE COMMUNITIES IN A VARIETY OF WAYS. FIRST AND FOREMOST, THEY DO SO THROUGH THE PROVISION OF EMERGENCY CARE AND TRAUMA CARE, OPERATING EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK, WITH HIGHLY SKILLED AND TRAINED EMERGENCY MEDICINE PHYSICIANS AND NURSES. THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS ARE OPEN TO ALL INDIVIDUALS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY, AND PROVIDE SPECIALIZED, LIFE-SAVING CARE TO ALL WHO SEEK IT, REGARDLESS OF A PATIENT'S RACE, CREED, GENDER EXPRESSION, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, NATIONAL ORIGIN, PHYSICAL OR MENTAL DISABILITY. ADDITIONALLY, THE HOSPITALS AND CLINICS OF AHN SUPPORT A BROAD ARRAY OF CHARITABLE SERVICES AND PROGRAMS TO THE COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING SUBSIDIZED HEALTH CARE; SPONSORING COMMUNITY EVENTS (HEALTH FAIRS, CANCER SCREENINGS, WALKS, EDUCATIONAL SEMINARS, BENEFITS SEMINARS, SUPPORT GROUPS); AND MAKING CHARITABLE DONATIONS. THE SERVICES BENEFIT CHILDREN AND TEENS, ADULTS AND SENIORS, PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES, AND THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE. SOME OF THOSE SERVICES AND INITIATIVES INCLUDE: THE AHN POSITIVE HEALTH CLINIC; THE BRADDOCK URGENT CARE CENTER; FREE CANCER SCREENINGS; A MEDICAL RESPITE PROGRAM; THE OPEN-HEART SURGERY OBSERVATION PROGRAM; THE PERINATAL HOPE PROGRAM; AND MORE. (FOR ADDITIONAL DETAIL, SEE SCHEDULE O.) OTHER INITIATIVES THAT IMPROVE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF THE MANY COMMUNITIES SERVED BY AHN INCLUDE: - HEALTHY FOOD CENTER: A FIRST OF ITS KIND IN THE REGION, AHN'S HEALTHY FOOD CENTER AS A "FOOD PHARMACY" WHERE PATIENTS WHO LACK ACCESS TO FOOD CAN RECEIVE NUTRITIOUS FOOD ITEMS, EDUCATION ON DISEASE-SPECIFIC DIETS, AND ADDITIONAL SERVICES FOR OTHER SOCIAL CHALLENGES THEY MIGHT FACE. ACCORDING TO THE GREATER PITTSBURGH COMMUNITY FOOD BANK, A PARTNER OF THE HEALTHY FOOD CENTER, FOOD INSECURITY AFFECTS MORE THAN 350,000 PEOPLE - OR ONE IN SEVEN ADULTS - IN THE PITTSBURGH REGION. FOOD INSECURITY REFERS TO A LACK OF AVAILABLE FINANCIAL RESOURCES FOR NUTRITIONALLY ADEQUATE FOOD SUCH AS FRUITS, VEGETABLES, LEAN PROTEINS AND WHOLE GRAINS. THE HEALTHY FOOD CENTER PRIMARILY SERVES PATIENTS WITH DIABETES WHO ARE SCREENED BY THEIR DOCTOR AS BEING FOOD INSECURE. PATIENTS RECEIVE A REFERRAL TO THE HEALTHY FOOD CENTER WHERE THEY INITIALLY MEET WITH AN ONSITE DIETITIAN TO DISCUSS THEIR DIETARY NEEDS BASED ON THEIR CONDITION. AFTER SHOPPING AT THE CENTER FOR THE RECOMMENDED FOOD ITEMS, PATIENTS GO HOME WITH TWO TO THREE DAYS' WORTH OF FOOD FOR ALL MEMBERS OF THEIR HOUSEHOLD. THE FOOD CENTERS ARE HOUSED AT ALLEGHENY GENERAL, WEST PENN, JEFFERSON AND WEST PENN HOSPITALS. - HEALTHCARE@HOME: AHN MAKES IT EASIER FOR PATIENTS TO ACCESS A FULL RANGE OF CUSTOMIZED HEALTHCARE SERVICES IN THE PRIVACY AND COMFORT OF THEIR OWN HOMES. THROUGH AHN'S HEALTHCARE@HOME PROGRAM, AHN IS HELPING MANY PATIENTS MAINTAIN THEIR INDEPENDENCE AND CONTINUE THE HEALING PROCESS AT HOME AS LONG AS POSSIBLE.

MORE THAN 29 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES, OR NEARLY 10% OF THE POPULATION, ARE AFFECTED BY DIABETES. AT THE CURRENT PACE OF THE EPIDEMIC, THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC) ESTIMATES THAT AS MANY AS ONE IN THREE PEOPLE COULD HAVE DIABETES BY THE YEAR 2050. THE YEARLY ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THE DISEASE AND ITS COMPLICATIONS EXCEEDS $245 BILLION; TO BETTER ADDRESS THE GROWING INCIDENCE AND IMPACT OF DIABETES IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA, AHN HAS ESTABLISHED A PATIENT-CENTERED MODEL OF CARE TO MORE EFFECTIVELY MEET THE COMPREHENSIVE NEEDS OF THOSE LIVING WITH THE DISEASE. THE RICHARD KING MELLON FOUNDATION GRANT PROVIDES PATIENTS IN THE AHN PROGRAM WITH ACCESS TO A RANGE OF MEDICAL AND OTHER SUPPORT SERVICES IN THE COMMUNITY. AT THE CORE OF THE NEW CARE MODEL ARE PHYSICIAN-LED, HOLISTIC ASSESSMENTS TO UNDERSTAND A PATIENT'S INDIVIDUAL NEEDS AND TO UNCOVER POTENTIAL BARRIERS TO SUCCESSFUL DISEASE MANAGEMENT. CRUCIALLY, DIABETES CARE COORDINATORS ARE HELPING TO CONNECT PATIENTS WITH A VARIETY OF SPECIALISTS TO HELP THEM MANAGE THEIR DISEASE MORE EFFECTIVELY, INCLUDING NUTRITIONISTS, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH COUNSELORS AND SOCIAL WORKERS. IN ADDITION, PATIENTS ARE CONNECTED WITH SERVICES AND ORGANIZATIONS WITHIN THEIR COMMUNITIES TO HELP FURTHER IMPROVE AND ENHANCE THEIR OVERALL CARE, SUCH AS LOCAL FOOD BANKS OFFERING HEALTHY DIETARY OPTIONS, THE AMERICAN DIABETES ASSOCIATION AND JDRF. - CHILD SAFETY DAY: CANONSBURG HOSPITAL (PART OF AHN) SPONSORS A SPRING CHILD SAFETY DAY ON ITS HOSPITAL GROUNDS FOR A DAY OF FUN, EDUCATION, AND PRIZES. EACH FAMILY ATTENDING IS GIVEN A FREE FIRST-AID KIT, AND HOSPITAL STAFF WILL DISTRIBUTED MORE THAN 300 BICYCLE HELMETS. WHILE CHILD DEATHS RELATED TO UNINTENTIONAL INJURY OR TRAUMA HAVE DROPPED DRAMATICALLY OVER THE LAST 30 YEARS, UNINTENTIONAL INJURIES (MOTOR VEHICLE/TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS, SUFFOCATION, DROWNING, POISONING, AND FIRE/BURNING) ARE STILL THE LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH FOR CHILDREN, AND MANY TRAUMA-RELATED INJURIES INCREASE IN THE SUMMER AFTER SCHOOL LETS OUT. - OPIOIDS AND ADDICTION MEDICINE: OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, AHN HAS TAKEN NUMEROUS STEPS TO CURB PAINKILLER MISUSE AND ADDICTION, OPIOID USE DISORDER, AND OVERDOSE DEATHS RELATED TO FENTANYL, CARFENTANIL, AND OTHER SYNTHETIC OPIATES. IN 2019, AHN RECEIVED A $5 MILLION FEDERAL GRANT FROM THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ADMINISTRATION (SAMHSA) TO SUPPORT THE IMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION OF ENHANCED SUBSTANCE USE SCREENING AND INTERVENTION SERVICES IN THE PRIMARY CARE SETTING. ADDITIONALLY, AHN AND GATEWAY HEALTH HAVE PARTNERED TO LAUNCH AN ENHANCED PAIN MANAGEMENT PROGRAM WHICH TAKES A NOVEL, HOLISTIC APPROACH TO TREATING A PATIENT'S PAIN WITHOUT OPIOIDS. THE FIRST SUCH CLINIC HAS OPENED AT THE AHN INSTITUTE FOR PAIN MEDICINE NEAR WEST PENN HOSPITAL, WITH MORE LOCATIONS BEING PLANNED. AHN AND PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS OPENED A NEW 45-BED UNIT AT THE KANE COMMUNITY LIVING CENTER IN MCKEESPORT, PA.; IT HAS BEEN OPERATING SINCE 2018 AS A POST-ACUTE UNIT FOR PATIENTS WITH MEDICAL CONDITIONS AND CO-OCCURRING SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS. AHN MAINTAINS SECURE, PERMANENT DRUG TAKE-BACK BOXES AT SIX AHN HOSPITALS, AS WELL AS AT THE WEXFORD HEALTH + WELLNESS PAVILION; THE BOXES HAVE ALLOWED PATIENTS AND VISITORS TO DISPOSE OF SURPLUS OR EXPIRED MEDICATIONS YEAR-ROUND SINCE 2018.

AHN WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2013, BUT ITS MEMBER HOSPITALS SHARE LEGACIES OF CHARITABLE CARE THAT DATE BACK 175 YEARS (WEST PENN HOSPITAL WAS CHARTERED IN 1848). AHN WAS FORMED TO ACT AS THE PARENT COMPANY OF THE HOSPITALS OF THE WEST PENN ALLEGHENY HEALTH SYSTEM, INC. (WPAHS), AS WELL AS JEFFERSON HOSPITAL, SAINT VINCENT HOSPITAL AND WESTFIELD MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. HIGHMARK HEALTH (HH), IN TURN, SERVES AS THE ULTIMATE PARENT OF AHN AND ITS AFFILIATES.

THE NETWORK'S HOSPITALS SERVE AS CLINICAL CAMPUSES FOR THE MEDICAL SCHOOLS OF DREXEL UNIVERSITY AND THE LAKE ERIE COLLEGE OF OSTEOPATHIC MEDICINE (LECOM). ABOUT 250 STUDENTS ARE ENROLLED EACH YEAR IN NURSING PROGRAMS AT THE WEST PENN HOSPITAL SCHOOL OF NURSING (PITTSBURGH) AND THE CITIZENS SCHOOL OF NURSING (TARENTUM), AND ABOUT 550 MEDICAL RESIDENTS AND FELLOWS RECEIVE ADVANCED TRAINING ON STAFF AT AHN HOSPITALS. AHN'S PLAN IS TO TRANSFORM THE CURRENT MODEL OF HEALTHCARE DELIVERY IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA BY ENCOURAGING HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS TO USE THE MOST APPROPRIATE, COST-EFFECTIVE VENUE FOR CARE; ADHERE TO THE HIGHEST, EVIDENCE-BASED STANDARDS OF CARE; AND DELIVER SUPERIOR OUTCOMES BY REDUCING UNNECESSARY READMISSIONS AND HEALTHCARE-ASSOCIATED COMPLICATIONS.

Schedule O MISSION AND VISION AHN'S MISSION, WHICH IS SHARED BY ITS PARENT COMPANY HIGHMARK HEALTH, IS TO CREATE A REMARKABLE HEALTH EXPERIENCE, FREEING PEOPLE TO BE THEIR BEST. OUR VISION IS A WORLD WHERE EVERYONE EMBRACES HEALTH.
Schedule O COMMUNITY BENEFITS AHN AND ITS TAX-EXEMPT SUBSIDIARY FACILITIES SUPPORT A BROAD ARRAY OF CHARITABLE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING SUBSIDIZED HEALTHCARE; SPONSORING COMMUNITY EVENTS (HEALTH FAIRS, CANCER SCREENINGS, WALKS, EDUCATIONAL SEMINARS, SUPPORT GROUPS); AND MAKING CHARITABLE DONATIONS. THE SERVICES BENEFIT CHILDREN AND TEENS, ADULTS AND SENIORS, PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES AND THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE. THE FOLLOWING IS NOT A TOTAL ACCOUNT OF ALL OF AHN'S CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES, BUT A SAMPLING OF AHN'S MANY CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE COMMUNITY AND ITS COMMITMENT TO PROVIDE A WIDE RANGE OF QUALITY HEALTH SERVICES TO DIVERSE COMMUNITIES AND TO ALL WHO SEEK AHN'S CARE: AIDS-FREE PITTSBURGH: In 2023, AHN continues to be involved with AIDS Free Pittsburgh (AFP). AFP RECEIVES FUNDING COMMITMENTS FROM AHN TO SUPPORT ITS WORK TOWARDS ENDING THE HIV/AIDS EPIDEMIC IN ALLEGHENY COUNTY DURING 2021-2025. TO REACH MORE PATIENTS IN SOUTHWESTERN PENNSYLVANIA WHO ARE POSITIVE FOR HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS (HIV), AHN'S POSITIVE HEALTH CLINIC LAUNCHED A REGIONAL MOBILE CARE PROGRAM. STAFFED BY A REGISTERED NURSE OR OTHER MEDICAL PROVIDER AND A MEDICAL ASSISTANT, THE NEW AHN MOBILE UNIT TRAVELS THROUGHOUT ALLEGHENY COUNTY AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES, PARTICULARLY IN RURAL AREAS, TO PROVIDE CARE TO INDIVIDUALS WITH HIV. THE UNIT IS EQUIPPED WITH THE MEDICAL SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT NECESSARY FOR THE CAREGIVERS TO CONDUCT PHYSICAL EXAMS, COLLECT BLOOD SAMPLES FOR LABORATORY TESTING, AND ADMINISTER MEDICATIONS AND VACCINES AS NEEDED. DURING THE VISIT, PATIENTS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONNECT VIRTUALLY WITH A PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER AT THE POSITIVE HEALTH CLINIC (PHC) BASED AT AHN'S FEDERAL NORTH MEDICAL BUILDING NEAR ALLEGHENY GENERAL HOSPITAL. PATIENTS CAN ALSO BE REFERRED TO OTHER HEALTH CARE SPECIALISTS, AS WELL AS COMMUNITY-BASED SUPPORTIVE SERVICES TO HELP ADDRESS ANY OTHER SOCIAL BARRIERS TO GOOD HEALTH THAT THEY MIGHT FACE. AUNT BERTHA (FIND HELP): IN 2020, ALLEGHENY HEALTH NETWORK PARTNERED WITH AUNT BERTHA TO PROVIDE A FREE RESOURCE TOOL FOR INDIVIDUALS FACING FOOD, HOUSING OR OTHER CRISES. IN 2022, AUNT BERTHA WAS REBRANDED AS "FIND HELP" (AHN.FINDHELP.COM). THE FIND HELP DIRECTORY CONTAINS GEOGRAPHIC-SPECIFIC INFORMATION ON SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT ORGANIZATIONS (CBOS) ACROSS THE UNITED STATES. ONLINE USERS WILL ONLY NEED TO ENTER THEIR ZIP CODE, FOLLOWED BY APPLICATION OF FILTERS TO ENCOMPASS THEIR SPECIFIC NEEDS, TO ACCESS LOCAL OPTIONS. THE SERVICE IS FREE AND HAS NO INCOME CONSTRAINTS FOR USERS. AUNT BERTHA'S MISSION IS TO CONNECT ALL PEOPLE IN NEED AND THE PROGRAMS THAT SERVE THEM WITH DIGNITY AND EASE. THE ONLINE TOOL ALLOWS USERS TO FIND NEARBY CBOS, MAKING IT EASIER FOR INDIVIDUALS TO ACCESS SOCIAL SERVICE OPTIONS IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS. IN 2022, HIGHMARK HEALTH AND AHN ALSO ANNOUNCED THE LAUNCH OF A MULTI-YEAR INITIATIVE TO CREATE A HIGHPERFORMING SOCIAL CARE NETWORK THAT WILL COMPENSATE NON-PROFITS THAT ADDRESS SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH, SUCH AS FOOD INSECURITY, TRANSPORTATION BARRIERS, AND HOUSING, FOR PATIENTS REFERRED BY THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. IN THE FIRST YEAR OF THE PILOT, 20 NON-PROFITS THAT SERVE ALLEGHENY AND WESTMORELAND COUNTIES PARTICIPATED IN THE PROGRAM AND HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO EARN VALUE-BASED REIMBURSEMENT. In 2023, AHN continued to partner with the Find Help program to assist those in need. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SUITE: IN 2023, AHN FORBES HOSPITAL OPENED A NEW FACILITY IN ITS EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT (ED) UNIQUELY DESIGNED AND EQUIPPED TO BETTER CARE FOR A GROWING NUMBER OF PATIENTS COMING TO THE HOSPITAL WITH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS. FORBES' NEW 2,000-SQUARE-FOOT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SUITE WAS CREATED TO PROVIDE A SAFE, QUIET, AND CALMING ENVIRONMENT FOR PATIENTS EXPERIENCING AN ACUTE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH EPISODE TO BE EVALUATED AND CARED FOR. THE SUITE PROVIDES MORE PRIVACY, SECURITY, AND PROTECTION FROM THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT'S BUSTLING, HIGHER-TRAFFIC AREAS. NATIONALLY, MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH-RELATED ED VISITS ACCOUNT FOR ABOUT 12 PERCENT OF ALL ADULT ED TRIPS. AND FROM 2011 TO 2020, THE PROPORTION OF EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS FOR MENTAL HEALTH REASONS DOUBLED FOR CHILD AND ADOLESCENT PATIENTS. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PATIENTS ALSO TEND TO HAVE LONGER STAYS IN EDS THAN NON-PSYCHIATRIC PATIENTS, HEIGHTENING THE NEED FOR DEDICATED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH OBSERVATION AND TREATMENT SPACES. BRADDOCK URGENT CARE: IN 2023, AHN AND HH CONTINUE TO OPERATE THE AHN URGENT CARE CENTER, SUBSIDIZING HEALTHCARE ACCESS FOR THE UNDERSERVED BRADDOCK, PA. COMMUNITY, BY PROVIDING CARE ON A CHARITABLE BASIS AND SERVING A SIGNIFICANT SHARE OF MEDICARE AND MEDICAID PATIENTS. AHN HAS LAUNCHED A COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN, INTENDED TO EDUCATE AND IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR BRADDOCK-AREA RESIDENTS IN FOUR KEY AREAS: BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, INCLUDING SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS; CANCER, PARTICULARLY OF THE PROSTATE, LUNG, COLON OR BREAST; CHRONIC DISEASE, WITH A FOCUS ON ASTHMA AND DIABETES; AND MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH, WITH A PARTICULAR FOCUS ON SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE PREVENTION. THE AHN URGENT CARE CENTER WAS BUILT FOLLOWING THE CLOSURE OF BRADDOCK'S COMMUNITY HOSPITAL WHICH HAD BEEN THE PRIMARY JOBS SOURCE AND HEALTHCARE ACCESS POINT FOR BRADDOCK RESIDENTS. THE AHN URGENT CARE CENTER IS STAFFED BY BOARD CERTIFIED PHYSICIANS, REGISTERED NURSES, MEDICAL ASSISTANTS AND RADIOLOGY TECHNICIANS AND EQUIPPED WITH 12 PATIENT EXAM ROOMS AND DIAGNOSTIC CAPABILITIES SUCH AS X-RAY IMAGING AND BLOOD WORK. BUTTERFLY SUITE: IN 2022, AHN OPENED ITS FIRST "BUTTERFLY SUITE," A DESIGNATED LABOR & DELIVERY ROOM WITH ADJACENT, PRIVATE WAITING AREA FOR FAMILIES COPING WITH BABIES BORN STILL OR BABIES WHOSE LIVES WILL BE BRIEF. THE BUTTERFLY SUITE IS A FIRST-OF-ITS KIND FOR PATIENTS IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AS IT'S A FULLY EQUIPPED CLINICAL SPACE STAFFED BY AHN CAREGIVERS TRAINED IN PERINATAL LOSS AND BEREAVEMENT. THE OPENING OF THE SUITE WAS MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE WEST PENN HOSPITAL FOUNDATION AND TWO PARENTS WHOSE SON, CALEB, WHO WAS BORN STILL ON MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND IN 2020. THE OPENING OF THE BUTTERFLY SUITE AT AHN WEST PENN IS AN EXPANSION OF OLIVIA'S ANGELS, ONE OF THE REGION'S MOST COMPREHENSIVE PERINATAL PALLIATIVE AND MISCARRIAGE SUPPORT PROGRAMS. THROUGH THE PROGRAM, A TEAM OF AHN PHYSICIANS AND CAREGIVERS SUPPORT AND CARE FOR PATIENTS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN PERINATAL LOSS OR RECEIVE A DIAGNOSIS THAT THEIR CHILD'S LIFE WILL BE LIMITED. IN CERTAIN INSTANCES, OLIVIA'S ANGELS CAN SCHEDULE ELECTIVE C-SECTIONS SO MOM CAN SPEND MORE TIME WITH BABY WHILE STILL ALIVE OR ALTERNATIVELY, ASSIST WOMEN IN THEIR DELIVERY OF BABIES BORN STILL. In 2023, AHN continued to operate the butterfly suite to assist families in need. CAI AND KATE: IN 2023, AHN PREMIERED A NEW YOUTUBE SHOW FOCUSING ON THE EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING OF CHILDREN AGES 3 TO 6 YEARS OLD. CAI & KATE FEATURES CAI, A CHAMELEON PUPPET WHOSE COLOR CHANGES DEPENDING ON HIS EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS, AND KATE, CAI'S HUMAN FRIEND WHO PROVIDES COMMENTARY ON THE VARIOUS EMOTIONS PORTRAYED IN THE SHOW. KATE IS PLAYED BY KATLYN KOHNE, A SUPERVISOR FOR AHN'S CHILL PROJECT TEAM. CAI & KATE AIMS TO BUILD KNOWLEDGE RELATED TO EMOTIONAL WELLNESS FOR CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES. PUPPETRY, MUSIC, AND EDUCATION ARE BLENDED TO FOSTER A SENSE OF WONDER AS KIDS EXPAND THEIR ABILITY TO IDENTIFY AND TALK ABOUT EMOTIONS. THE PREMIERE EPISODE IS THE FIRST IN A SERIES BEING PRODUCED BY CHILL PROJECT PRODUCTIONS, AN INITIATIVE OF THE AHN CHILL PROJECT. OFFERED THROUGH AHN'S PSYCHIATRY & BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INSTITUTE AND LED BY A TEAM OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SPECIALISTS, THE CHILL PROJECT TEACHES EVIDENCED-BASED COPING TECHNIQUES TO EQUIP STUDENTS, TEACHERS, AND PARENTS WITH A STANDARDIZED APPROACH TO MANAGING STRESS, ANXIETY AND OTHER MENTAL HEALTH CONCERNS. AS THE CHILL PROJECT EXPANDED TO INCLUDE GRADES K-12 AS WELL AS COLLEGE STUDENTS SINCE ITS 2019 LAUNCH, THE PROJECT'S STAKEHOLDERS ALSO IDENTIFIED A NEED FOR HIGHLY CUSTOMIZED AND TARGETED CURRICULUM THAT IS EMOTIONALLY AND DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE FOR PRESCHOOLERS. CANCER SCREENINGS: IN 2023, AHN CONTINUED ITS ANNUAL NO-COST CANCER SCREENING SERIES. SCREENINGS TAKE PLACE AT EACH OF AHN'S ACUTE-CATE HOSPITALS. IN 2023, AHN PERFORMED A TOTAL OF 2,376 SCREENINGS - A 46 PERCENT INCREASE OVER 2022. SCREENINGS FOR THE FOLLOWING CANCERS ARE AVAILABLE: BREAST CANCER (FOR AGES 40+), CERVICAL CANCER (AGES 21-65), COLORECTAL CANCERS (AGE 45-75), HEAD AND NECK CANCERS (AGE 18+), LUNG CANCER (AGES 50-80 WITH A HISTORY OF SMOKING), PROSTATE CANCER (AGES 45+) AND SKIN CANCER (AGES 18+). THE EVENT IS OPEN TO BOTH AHN AND NON-AHN PATIENTS, AND HEALTH INSURANCE IS NOT REQUIRED.
Schedule O CENTERINGPREGNANCY: IN 2023, THE AHN WOMEN'S INSTITUTE AND HIGHMARK HEALTH'S EQUITABLE HEALTH INSTITUTE LAUNCHED CENTERINGPREGNANCY, A NATIONALLY-RECOGNIZED MODEL OF GROUP PRENATAL CARE SHOWN TO IMPROVE A WIDE RANGE OF BIRTH OUTCOMES, INCLUDING LOWERING THE RISK OF PRETERM BIRTHS, REDUCING LOW BIRTH WEIGHTS AND INCREASING BREASTFEEDING RATES. THE PROGRAM IS BASED AT AHN WEST PENN, HOME TO THE NETWORK'S BUSIEST LABOR AND DELIVERY PROGRAM. THE CENTERINGPREGNANCY MODEL BRINGS TOGETHER BETWEEN EIGHT AND 12 PATIENTS WITH SIMILAR DUE DATES, AS WELL AS THEIR PARTNERS, SUPPORT PEOPLE, AND HEALTHCARE TEAM. THEY MEET FOR 10 PRENATAL VISITS FOLLOWING THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF OBSTETRICIANS AND GYNECOLOGISTS (ACOG) AND AMERICAN COLLEGE OF NURSE MIDWIVES (ACNM) PRACTICE GUIDELINES, BUT EACH VISIT IS 90 MINUTES TO TWO HOURS LONG - GIVING PATIENTS SIGNIFICANTLY MORE TIME WITH THEIR PROVIDER TEAM WHEN COMPARED TO INDIVIDUAL VISITS. THE MODEL HAS SHOWN TO BE PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL IN IMPROVING OUTCOMES AMONG BLACK WOMEN AND BABIES, WHO HAVE HIGHER RATES OF PREGNANCY- AND BIRTH-RELATED COMPLICATIONS THAN WHITE POPULATIONS. CENTERINGPREGNANCY'S GROUP-CARE MODEL HELPS TO ADDRESS THOSE LONG-STANDING DISPARITIES. CENTER FOR INCLUSION HEALTH: IN 2023, AHN CONTINUED TO OPERATE THE CENTER FOR INCLUSION HEALTH.

AHN'S HOMELESS HEALTHCARE SERVICES REACH PEOPLE BY PROVIDING CARE WHEREVER THEY ARE: AT HOMELESS SHELTERS, ON THE STREETS, IN HOSPITALS, AND AT OTHER LOCATIONS. AHN'S ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO BREAK THE CYCLE OF HOMELESSNESS, POVERTY, AND POOR HEALTH THROUGH TRUSTING, RESPECTFUL AND COMPASSIONATE HEALTHCARE RELATIONSHIPS.

CHILL: THE CHILL PROJECT USES MINDFULNESS-BASED EXERCISES TO EQUIP STUDENTS, TEACHERS, AND PARENTS WITH A COMMON LANGUAGE AND UNIVERSAL SKILLS TO IDENTIFY, DISCUSS, AND REACT POSITIVELY TO STRESS. SCHOOL HAS ALWAYS BEEN A SOURCE OF STRESS, WHETHER ONE IS TAKING CLASSES, TEACHING OR PARENTING A STUDENT. NEGATIVE REACTIONS TO STRESS CREATE A SIGNIFICANT BARRIER TO LEARNING AND GROWTH. THE CHILL PROJECT FEATURES DEDICATED PROFESSIONALS, A CALMING SPACE, AND REGULAR INSTRUCTION TO HELP EVERY MEMBER OF A SCHOOL'S COMMUNITY BETTER HANDLE PRESSURE AND ANXIETY. THE PROJECT STARTED IN BALDWIN-WHITEHALL SCHOOL DISTRICT AND WEST JEFFERSON HILLS SCHOOL DISTRICT AND AS OF 2023 HAS EXPANDED TO 42 SCHOOLS WITHIN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA TO SERVE OVER 50,000 STUDENTS, 3,000 EDUCATORS, AND THOUSANDS OF PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS.

THE TWO PARTNERED TO PURCHASE AND CUSTOMIZE THE CHILL MOBILE VEHICLE THAT WILL TRAVEL TO SCHOOL DISTRICTS, WORKPLACES, AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, GREATLY EXPANDING THE REACH OF AHN'S PROGRAM. OTHER SUPPORTERS OF CHILL MOBILE INCLUDE THE REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY, PNC, AND THE PALUMBO CHARITABLE TRUST. OFFERED THROUGH AHN'S PSYCHIATRY & BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INSTITUTE AND LED BY A TEAM OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SPECIALISTS, THE CHILL PROJECT USES MINDFULNESS-BASED EXERCISES TO EQUIP STUDENTS, TEACHERS, AND PARENTS WITH AN EVIDENCE-BASED, STANDARDIZED APPROACH TO IDENTIFYING, DISCUSSING, AND MANAGING STRESS, ANXIETY AND OTHER MENTAL HEALTH CONCERNS. IN 2023, AHN CONTINUED TO OPERATE THE CHILL MOBILE TO PROVIDE BEHAVORIAL SERVICES AND MINDFULNESS TRAINING TO STUDENTS IN NEED.
Schedule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

DONATE LIFE MONTH: IN 2023, AHN'S COMMITMENT TO ORGAN, TISSUE, AND CORNEA DONATION RESULTED IN THOUSANDS OF LIVES SAVED OR IMPROVED, EITHER THROUGH TRANSPLANT PROCEDURES CARRIED OUT AT THE NETWORK'S HOSPITALS, OR BECAUSE OF THE GENEROSITY OF ORGAN AND TISSUE DONORS WHO WERE PATIENTS AT AHN HOSPITALS. AHN PROMOTES ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION THROUGHOUT THE MONTH OF APRIL (NATIONAL DONATE LIFE MONTH) BY HOSTING A SERIES OF EVENTS ACROSS ITS HOSPITALS. THE EVENTS WILL PAY TRIBUTE TO THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN THE GIFT OF LIFE WHILE ALSO ENCOURAGING STAFF, PATIENTS AND VISITORS TO LEARN MORE ABOUT ORGAN DONATION AND HOW TO BECOME A REGISTERED ORGAN DONOR.

FIRST STEPS AND BEYOND: IN 2023, AHN CONTINUED TO OPERATE "FIRST STEPS AND BEYOND" PROGRAM DESIGNED TO DECREASE BLACK INFANT MORTALITY RATES, REDUCE PRETERM BIRTH RATES AND INCREASE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT SAFE SLEEP. THIS PIVOTAL PROGRAM AIMS TO EXPAND PRENATAL, PERINATAL, BIRTH DOULA AND FATHERHOOD SERVICES AS WELL AS DEVELOP INTERVENTIONS FOR FAMILIES EXPERIENCING OPPRESSION AND HARDSHIP, ESPECIALLY DUE TO RACIAL INEQUALITY. FETAL DEATHS ARE TWO TIMES MORE LIKELY AMONG PITTSBURGH'S BLACK WOMEN COMPARED TO WHITE WOMEN, ACCORDING TO A RECENT REPORT BY THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH GENDER EQUITY COMMISSION. FOR BLACK WOMEN IN PITTSBURGH, 18 OUT OF EVERY 1,000 PREGNANCIES WILL END IN A FETAL DEATH, COMPARED TO ONLY NINE OUT OF EVERY 1,000 PREGNANCIES IN WHITE PATIENT POPULATIONS. THIS PROGRAM IS SUPPORTED BY THE HEINZ ENDOWMENTS AND THE HIGHMARK FOUNDATION. HEALTHY FOOD CENTER: A FIRST OF ITS KIND IN THE REGION, AHN'S HEALTHY FOOD CENTERS ACT AS A "FOOD PHARMACY" WHERE PATIENTS WHO LACK ACCESS TO FOOD CAN RECEIVE NUTRITIOUS FOOD ITEMS, EDUCATION ON DISEASE-SPECIFIC DIETS, AND ADDITIONAL SERVICES FOR OTHER SOCIAL CHALLENGES THEY MIGHT FACE. ACCORDING TO THE GREATER PITTSBURGH COMMUNITY FOOD BANK, A PARTNER OF THE HEALTHY FOOD CENTER, FOOD INSECURITY AFFECTS MORE THAN 350,000 PEOPLE - OR ONE IN SEVEN ADULTS - IN THE PITTSBURGH REGION. FOOD INSECURITY REFERS TO A LACK OF AVAILABLE FINANCIAL RESOURCES FOR NUTRITIONALLY ADEQUATE FOOD SUCH AS FRUITS, VEGETABLES, LEAN PROTEINS AND WHOLE GRAINS. THE HEALTHY FOOD CENTER PRIMARILY SERVES PATIENTS WITH DIABETES WHO ARE SCREENED BY THEIR DOCTOR AS BEING FOOD INSECURE. PATIENTS RECEIVE A REFERRAL TO THE HEALTHY FOOD CENTER AT WEST PENN AND ALLEGHENY GENERAL HOSPITALS WHERE THEY INITIALLY MEET WITH AN ONSITE DIETITIAN TO DISCUSS THEIR DIETARY NEEDS BASED ON THEIR CONDITION. AFTER SHOPPING AT THE CENTER FOR THE RECOMMENDED FOOD ITEMS, PATIENTS GO HOME WITH TWO TO THREE DAYS' WORTH OF FOOD FOR ALL MEMBERS OF THEIR HOUSEHOLD. THE HEALTHY FOOD CENTER OPENED IN 2018 AT WPH AND SUBSEQUENTLY EXPANDED TO AGH, JH, SVH, AND FORBES HOSPITAL. A SIXTH HEALTHY FOOD CENTER HAS SINCE OPENED AT ALLEGHENY VALLEY HOSPITAL.
