Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 7: A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO, DERIVED FROM SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS WORKSHEET 2, RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST-TO-CHARGES, WAS USED TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE TABLE FOR PART I, LINE 7A. SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS WORKSHEET 3, UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID AND OTHER MEANS-TESTED GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS, WAS USED TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE TABLE FOR PART I, LINE 7B. A COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM WAS USED TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE TABLE FOR PART I, LINES 7E, 7F, 7G, AND 7I.
PART I, LINE 7G: ANSHN PROVIDES SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY. THESE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED DESPITE CREATING A FINANCIAL LOSS FOR ANSHN. THESE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED BECAUSE THEY MEET AN IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY NEED. IF ANSHN DID NOT PROVIDE THE CLINICAL SERVICE, IT IS REASONABLE TO CONCLUDE THAT THESE SERVICES WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE TO THE COMMUNITY. THE SERVICES INCLUDED ARE BOTH INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT PROGRAMS FOR PEDIATRICS AND REHABILITATION SERVICES.
PART I, LN 7 COL(F): $25,472,918 (UPDATE NUMBER) OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT WAS REMOVED FROM THE DENOMINATOR FOR PURPOSES OF SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F).
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: AS A RESULT OF THE 2020-2022 CHNA PROCESS, ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC MEDICAL CENTER'S COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCIL SELECTED THE FOLLOWING THREE PRIORITIES: HEALTH AND NUTRITION HEALTH LIFESTYLES WAS CHOSEN AS ONE OF THE TWO HEALTH NEED PRIORITIES DUE TO MANY CHRONIC DISEASES AND HEALTH ISSUES THAT ARE RELATED TO POOR NUTRITION AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT OF A COMMUNITY SUCH AS AVAILABILITY OF AFFORDABLE, FRESH FOOD AND SAFE PLACES TO BE PHYSICALLY ACTIVE AFFECT RESIDENTS' ABILITY TO EXERCISE, EAT A HEALTHY DIET, AND MAINTAIN A HEALTHY BODY WEIGHT. 2023 HEALTH AND NUTRITION OUTCOMES: ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC CONTINUES TO ADDRESS THE FOOD SECURITY NEEDS OF INDIVIDUALS THROUGH THE HOSPITAL BASED FOOD PANTRY PROGRAM. IN 2023, THE MEDICAL CENTER'S HOSPITAL-BASED FOOD PANTRY PROGRAM SERVED 58 PATIENTS AND DISTRIBUTED AN ESTIMATED 870 POUNDS. ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC ALLOCATED FUNDS TO SUPPORT WITH GROCERY CARDS FOR LOW-INCOME STUDENTS FROM CHRIST THE KING (CTK).BEHAVIORAL HEALTHBEHAVIORAL HEALTH WAS SELECTED AS THE OTHER HEALTH PRIORITY. THIS HEALTH PRIORITY INCLUDES MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE/ALCOHOL USE. THE RATES OF MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES AND SUBSTANCE USE ARE CONTINUING TO INCREASE OVER TIME, AND IT'S ANTICIPATED THAT THE IMPACT WILL BE SEVERE DUE TO THE IMPLICATIONS OF COVID-19. 2023 BEHAVIORAL HEALTH OUTCOMES: ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC MEDICAL CENTER ESTABLISHED A PARTNERSHIP WITH ONWARD NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSE AND IS SPONSORING THEIR ILLINOIS WELCOMING CENTER FOR IMMIGRANTS AND REFUGEES PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM AIMS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES, ACCESS FOR IMMIGRANT AND UNINSURED INDIVIDUALS AND ACCESS TO INDIVIDUAL AND FAMILY PSYCHOTHERAPY IN THE BELMONT CRAGIN AREA AND NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES. THE ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC MOBILE CRISIS RESPONSE TEAM SERVED 32 PATIENTS, PROVIDING 545 SERVICES IN THE COMMUNITY. THE TEAM PROVIDES CRISIS INTERVENTIONS, THERAPY AND CASE MANAGEMENT TO ACUTELY ILL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PATIENTS, OFFERING COMMUNITY-BASED ENCOUNTERS. THE MEDICAL CENTER CONTINUES TO IMPLEMENT THE FIRST ACCESS PROGRAM WHICH AIMS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. IN 2023 BHS EXTENDED INTAKE FUNCTIONALITY FOR NEW PATIENTS BEYOND FIRST ACCESS SO THAT INTERMITTENT STAFFING CHALLENGES DO NOT INTERFERE WITH STEADY ACCESS TO CARE: 1877 INTAKES TO NEW PATIENTS WERE PROVIDED IN 2023.SOCIAL DRIVERS OF HEALTH COVID-19 EXPOSED THE DEVASTATING IMPACT SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC FACTORS CAN HAVE ON ONE'S HEALTH AND IN MANY LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES OF COLOR. THE CHC IDENTIFIED SDOH AS A CRUCIAL COMPONENT OF ADDRESSING THE ROOT CAUSES OF THE PRIORITIZED HEALTH NEEDS AND KEY TO IMPROVING THE OVERALL HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN THE PSA. THE CHC VOTED TO INTEGRATE SDOH INTO HEALTH AND NUTRITION AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INSTEAD OF HAVING A SDOH STAND ALONE AS A HEALTH NEED.FOR A COMPLETE 2023 PROGRAM RECAP, VISIT ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC'S 2023 COMMUNITY HEALTH PROGRESS REPORT: 2023 IMMC COMMUNITY HEALTH PROGRESS REPORT FOR DETAILS ON OUR IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES, VISIT ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC'S COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY: 2023-2025 IMMC CHIS HEALTH NEEDS NOT SELECTED AND WHY ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE CANCER RESPIRATORY HEALTH COVID-19 HEART DISEASE DIABETESFOR DETAILED INFORMATION ON WHY THESE NEEDS WERE NOT SELECTED PLEASE SEE ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC'S 2022 CHNA AT: ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC MEDICAL CENTER CHNA REPORT 2022 ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE
PART III, LINE 4: FOR ANHN, IN 2022, THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS COVERED 24.96% OF NET PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE STATED AT NET REALIZABLE VALUE. ANSHN EVALUATES THE COLLECTABILITY OF ITS ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE BASED ON THE LENGTH OF TIME THE RECEIVABLE IS OUTSTANDING, PAYER CLASS, HISTORICAL COLLECTION EXPERIENCE, AND TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE INSURANCE PROGRAMS. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE CHARGED TO THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS WHEN THEY ARE DEEMED UNCOLLECTIBLE.THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED IN DETERMINING THE AMOUNTS REPORTED ON LINES 2 AND 3 IS BASED ON THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES. THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF BAD DEBT WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS (CMS 2252-96 WORKSHEET C, PART 1, PPS INPATIENT RATIOS) TO THE ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT PROVISION PER GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, LESS ANY PATIENT OR THIRD PARTY PAYOR PAYMENTS RECEIVED.ADVOCATE MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO IDENTIFY THOSE PATIENTS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BY STRICTLY ADHERING TO ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. WE BELIEVE THAT ADVOCATE HAS A POPULATION OF PATIENTS WHO ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED BUT WHO DO NOT COMPLETE THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION. THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) WHICH COULD BE REASONABLY ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO WOULD LIKELY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, IF SUFFICIENT INFORMATION HAD BEEN AVAILABLE TO MAKE A DETERMINATION OF THEIR ELIGIBILITY, WAS BASED UPON SELF PAY PATIENT ACCOUNTS WHICH HAD AMOUNTS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBTS. OUR METHOD WAS TO BEGIN WITH THE SELF-PAY PORTION OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE PROVISION. THE SELF PAY PORTION EXCLUDES THOSE PATIENTS WHO HAD FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATIONS PENDING AT THE TIME OF SERVICE. THIS COST WAS THEN REDUCED BY CHARGES IDENTIFIED AS TRUE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, INCLUDING COPAYS FOR PATIENTS WHO QUALIFIED FOR LESS THAN 100% FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS THEN APPLIED TO THE REMAINING CHARGES, TO DETERMINE THE VALUE (AT COST) OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS THAT DID NOT COMPLETE FINANCIAL COUNSELING AND WERE ASSIGNED TO BAD DEBT. WE BELIEVE THIS PROCESS IS A REASONABLE BASIS FOR OUR ESTIMATE. AS WE ARE ONLY CONSIDERING SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT FOR THIS ESTIMATE, THIS ESTIMATE DOES NOT INCLUDE THE IMMEDIATE 25% DISCOUNT TO CHARGES WHICH IS APPLIED TO ALL SELF-PAY PATIENTS. IT ALSO DOES NOT INCLUDE ACCOUNT BALANCES OR CO-PAYS OF NON-SELF PAY ACCOUNTS WHICH ARE WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT WHEN THE PATIENT HAS NO OTHER FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO PAY THESE AMOUNTS AND THE PATIENT DOES NOT APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.BAD DEBT AMOUNTS HAVE BEEN EXCLUDED FROM OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT AMOUNTS REPORTED THROUGHOUT SCHEDULE H.
PART III, LINE 8: IN 2022, NO SHORTFALL WAS REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 7.FOR ADVOCATE NORTHSIDE'S OPERATIONS, THE UNREIMBURSED COST OF MEDICARE WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST TO CHARGE RATIO FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORTS (CMS 2252-96 WORKSHEET C, PART 1, PPS INPATIENT RATIOS) AND FOR NON-HOSPITAL OPERATIONS THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO CALCULATED ON WORKSHEET 2 RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES TO THE ORGANIZATION'S MEDICARE, LESS ANY PATIENT OR THIRD PARTY PAYOR PAYMENTS AND/OR CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED THAT WERE DESIGNATED FOR THE PAYMENT OF MEDICARE PATIENT BILLS.
PART III, LINE 9B: ANSHN MAINTAINS BOTH WRITTEN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND BAD DEBT/COLLECTION POLICIES. THE BAD DEBT/COLLECTION POLICY DOES NOT APPLY TO THOSE PATIENTS KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE; THEREFORE SUCH PATIENTS ARE NOT SUBJECT TO COLLECTION PRACTICES.
PART VI, LINE 2: COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENTALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY (AHE). THE ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY IS A COALITION OF COOK COUNTY NON-PROFIT AND PUBLIC HOSPITALS, HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS.
