Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Financial Assistance and Certain Other Community Benefits at Cost THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $314,663,465; THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOR BAYSHORE MEDICAL CENTER, JERSEY SHORE UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER, OCEAN UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER, RIVERVIEW MEDICAL CENTER, SOUTHERN OCEAN MEDICAL CENTER, RARITAN BAY MEDICAL CENTER, OLD BRIDGE MEDICAL CENTER, HACKENSACK UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER, JFK UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER, HACKENSACK MERIDIAN HEALTH CARRIER CLINIC, AND PALISADES MEDICAL CENTER ("HOSPITALS"). HOSPITALS USE WORKSHEET 2, RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES, IN THE IRS FORM 990 SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS TO CALCULATE THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO. IN 2015, THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE CLARIFIED IN THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE H THAT GROUP RETURNS ARE REQUIRED TO USE TOTAL EXPENSES AS REPORTED IN CORE FORM, PART IX, LINE 25 AS THE DENOMINATOR WHEN CALCULATING THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PERCENTAGE IN SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7. THE ORGANIZATION FEELS THIS RESULTS IN AN UNDERSTATEMENT OF ITS COMMUNITY BENEFIT PERCENTAGE AS THE OTHER ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDED IN THE GROUP RETURN DO NOT CONTRIBUTE ANY EXPENSES TO THE NUMERATOR. THEREFORE, THE ORGANIZATION WAS CONSISTENT WITH PRIOR YEARS IN USING THE TOTAL HOSPITALS' EXPENSES IN THE DENOMINATOR TO CALCULATE THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PERCENTAGE IN SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7. THIS ALLOWS FOR A BETTER COMPARISON TO THE PRIOR YEARS AS THIS METHODOLOGY HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN USED IN THE CALCULATION AS WELL AS A MORE ACCURATE REFLECTION OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE HOSPITALS. AS PART OF THE HOSPITALS' MISSION SUPPORT, THE ORGANIZATIONS SUBSIDIZE THE LOSS OF ITS NON-PROFIT PHYSICIAN PRACTICES SO THAT THEY CAN PROVIDE MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY. SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7I INCLUDES THIS MISSION SUPPORT AS PART OF THE HOSPITALS' SUBSIDIZED SERVICES.

THE AMOUNT REFLECTED ON LINE 3 REPRESENTS THOSE THAT ARE NOT COMPLIANT WITH DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS AND THOSE WHO CANNOT BE CONTACTED. NON-ELIGIBLE PATIENTS, DUE TO BEING OVER INCOME, ARE NOT INCLUDED ON LINE 3. BAD DEBT SHOULD BE INCLUDED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDES MUCH NEEDED HEALTH CARE SERVICES INDISCRIMINATELY TO THE COMMUNITY-AT-LARGE WITHOUT REGARD TO WHETHER THE PATIENT HAS INSURANCE OR THE ABILITY TO PAY. THE METHODOLOGY USED BY THE ORGANIZATION TO ESTIMATE THE AMOUNT OF ITS BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY WAS TO APPLY ITS COST TO CHARGE RATIO TO TOTAL SELF-PAY GROSS CHARGES.

THE SAME HOLDS FOR NON-MEDICARE PATIENTS BUT THE DUNNING CYCLE IS 62 DAYS. THE SYSTEM ENTITIES DO NOT ENGAGE IN EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS AGAINST AN INDIVIDUAL PRIOR TO REASONABLE EFFORTS BEING MADE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE INDIVIDUAL IS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM-ELIGIBLE. FOR THESE PURPOSES, REASONABLE EFFORTS INCLUDE THE POSTING OF SIGNAGE AND NOTICES REGARDING THE SYSTEM'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, THE PROVISION OF A PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARY AS PART OF THE HOSPITALS INTAKE PROCESS, THE INCLUSION OF SPECIFIC INFORMATION REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ON ALL BILLING STATEMENTS, COMMUNICATING IN PERSON AND BY TELEPHONE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF ASSISTANCE AND, IN CASES WHERE AN INCOMPLETE APPLICATION IS SUBMITTED, INFORMING THE PATIENT, IN WRITING, REGARDING THE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THE PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY.

A SYSTEM ENTITY MAY SATISFY THE NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS WITH RESPECT TO AN INDIVIDUAL'S AGGREGATED OUTSTANDING BILLS AS LONG AS 120 DAYS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE FIRST POST DISCHARGE STATEMENT FOR THE MOST RECENT EPISODE OF CARE INCLUDED IN THE AGGREGATED BILLS. AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE 120 DAY PERIOD, IF A SYSTEM ENTITY INTENDS TO UNDERTAKE AN ECA, THE THIRD PARTY WILL PROVIDE THE PATIENT WITH A FINAL WRITTEN NOTICE STATING THE SPECIFIC ECAS THAT WILL BE UNDERTAKEN IF PAYMENT IS NOT MADE OR A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION IS NOT SUBMITTED BEFORE A STATED DEADLINE, WHICH MUST BE AT LEAST 30 DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF THE NOTICE.

PRIMARY AND SECONDARY AGENCIES CAN PURSUE LEGAL ACTION ON ACCOUNTS THROUGH DESIGNATED LEGAL AFFILIATES. ACCOUNTS THAT REMAIN UNPAID MAY BE REFERRED TO ATTORNEYS. SUCH ATTORNEYS MAY PROVIDE THE 30-DAY NOTICE (DESCRIBED ABOVE) ON BEHALF OF THE SYSTEM ENTITY AND, AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE STATED DEADLINE, MAY INITIATE ECAS ON BEHALF OF THE SYSTEM ENTITY.

THE HOSPITAL CONTINUES TO ACCEPT AND PROCESS ANY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATIONS FOR UP TO 24 MONTHS AFTER THE ORIGINAL DATE OF SERVICE.IF THE PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR CHARITY CARE OR THE UNINSURED DISCOUNT, ANY AMOUNTS PREVIOUSLY PAID BY THE PATIENT IN EXCESS OF THEIR DISCOUNTED CHARGES WILL BE REFUNDED AND ANY EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION EFFORTS THAT HAVE BEEN TAKEN WILL BE REVERSED. HACKENSACK MERIDIAN HEALTH CARRIER CLINIC ----------------------------- SUMMARY OF BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCEDURES THE HOSPITAL WILL MAKE DILIGENT EFFORT TO DETERMINE THE PATIENT FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AS SOON AS REASONABLY POSSIBLE, THE DAY OF ADMISSION OR WITHIN FEW DAYS OF ADMISSION. ESTIMATED AMOUNT DUE WILL BE BASED ON THE INDIVIDUAL INSURANCE BENEFIT AND MAY INCLUDE DEDUCTIBLE, CO-PAY AND CO-INSURANCE. THE HOSPITAL WILL MAKE ITS BEST EFFORT TO ADVISE ALL PATIENTS AND/OR FAMILIES OF ANY FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, COVERAGE LIMITATION, DISCUSS PAYMENT OPTIONS AND AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. PATIENT STATEMENTS WILL INCLUDE NOTICES AS REQUIRED TO INFORM PATIENT OF THE AVAILABILITY AND MEANS TO ACCESS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE HOSPITAL WIDELY PUBLICIZES ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, INCLUDING WHO TO CONTACT. GENERALLY, A PATIENT AND/OR GUARANTOR WILL HAVE A SELF-PAY RESPONSIBILITY INCLUDING AND NOT LIMITED TO THE FOLLOWING: THE PATIENT HAS INSURANCE COVERAGE BUT IT HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED THAT DEDUCTIBLE NOT MET AND PATIENT HAS CO-INSURANCE AND/OR DAILY COPAY, THE PATIENT HAS INSURANCE, HOWEVER, HACKENSACK MERIDIAN HEALTH CARRIER CLINIC IS OUT OF NETWORK AND PATIENT DOES NOT HAVE OUT OF NETWORK BENEFITS, THE PATIENT HAS NO INSURANCE AND WHEN ASKED DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR MEDICAID, THE PATIENT HAS INSURANCE BUT NO BENEFITS FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, THE PATIENT HAS INSURANCE, AND HAS OUT OF NETWORK BENEFITS WITH HIGH COINSURANCE, THE PATIENT HAS EXHAUSTED AVAILABLE BENEFITS, BENEFIT YEAR, CALENDAR YEAR, AND/OR LIFETIME MAXIMUM FREQUENT OCCURRENCE WITH MEDICARE PATIENTS WHO HAVE USED THEIR 190 LIFETIME PSYCHIATRIC BENEFIT OR LESS FREQUENTLY MAXED THEIR BENEFIT PERIOD.

THE PSR (PATIENT SERVICES REP) WILL PROVIDE FINANCIAL COUNSELING TO THESE PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES, INCLUDING GUIDANCE FOR ELIGIBILITY FOR OTHER SOURCES OF COVERAGE SUCH AS FEDERAL AND STATE GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS. IF ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS REQUIRED, PSR MAY EXTEND DISCOUNTS OR OTHER ADJUSTMENTS TO PATIENT IF THEY QUALIFY UNDER THE HOSPITAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY. THE PATIENT HAS A NUMBER OF RESPONSIBILITIES IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR ASSISTANCE, INCLUDING THE OBLIGATION TO SUBMIT ALL NECESSARY AND ACCURATE DOCUMENTATION. THE HOSPITAL WIDELY PUBLICIZES INFORMATION ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, INCLUDING WHERE TO GO FOR ASSISTANCE. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT SERVICES WHICH ARE SEPARATELY BILLED BY OTHER OUTSIDE PROVIDERS, SUCH AS PHYSICIANS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY (FAP).

Schedule H, Part VI, Line 5 Promotion of community health Project HEAL Project HEAL (Help, Empower, and Lead), a violence intervention and prevention program based at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, will celebrate its 3rd anniversary in March 2024. Since its inception, the program has served over 550 individuals impacted by interpersonal and community violence. In 2023, Project HEAL facilitated over 1,100 trauma-informed outpatient counseling sessions and hospital bedside visits, provided more than 1,000 intensive case management services, and conducted over 250 health screenings for survivors of violence. Project HEAL partnered with Triumphant Life Church, a local, faith-based organization with deep roots in the community, to launch a new community-based violence intervention program, Elevate. Elevate began serving youth, ages 12-20, at-risk for violence victimization and/or perpetration in February 2023, by providing trauma-informed clinical services, alternatives to violence and peer mentoring by community residents personally impacted by violence themselves. By the end of 2023, Elevate serviced more than 30 youth and their families. Partners in Health Equity The Community Outreach & Engagement team partners with countless community based organizations to educate, provide early detection of health risk, and connect individuals to needed resources. Understanding that it takes a village to make an impact, we partner with local agencies and organizations to deliver services outside our hospital walls. There is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to improving health equity, which is why we tailor our programs and initiatives to meet the needs of individuals we serve across diverse geographic locations and populations. Supporting Immigrants in New Communities For Hispanic Heritage month we collaborated with Casa Freehold, an organization that helps new immigrants become integrated and productive members of their new community. Focus On Maternal Health To reach childbearing age women, we partnered with the Raritan Bay Area YMCA's Center for Success, Support, and Prosperity, to participate in their Community Baby Shower providing education and distributing diaper bags with formula throughout the year, we provided bilingual lectures on important health topics. Second Annual Men's Health Event In the ongoing battle against cancer, access to life-saving screenings and vital resources remains a cornerstone of prevention and early detection. The John Theurer Cancer Community Outreach and Engagement Team hosted the 2nd annual Men's Health Event brought together over 150 men (and a few women) from a variety of ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds (27% African American, 12% Asian, 26% Latino, and 27% White) to participate in free health screening, learning opportunities and volunteering. Among those who were screened, 31% had elevated A1c levels detected, 22% had high blood pressure, and 1.43% had an abnormal PSA blood draw. All individuals with abnormal results received referrals for follow up care. Leading the Nation in Healthy Connections Through our groundbreaking social determinants of health program, Healthy Connections, Hackensack Meridian Health has provided 2.7 million patient referrals for support beyond traditional health care. Through this innovative program and a unique partnership with Unite Us, Hackensack Meridian Health launched Healthy Connections in June 2021, becoming the first health care network to assess total patient health, including non-medical needs, at all points of entry. Team members quickly identified five issue areas that were a priority for patients: food, housing, transportation, caregiver support and mental health/substance abuse treatment. In June 2021, all health care settings across the network began providing consistent screening. Today, the network screens up to 5,000 patients daily. If a need is discovered during the screening process, the patient is referred to community partner organizations for assistance. Since 2021, Healthy Connections has made a significant impact: - 1,003,900+ PATIENTS HAVE BEEN SCREENED - 3.4 MILLION REFERRALS HAVE BEEN PROVIDED Keeping Our Communities Healthy - 41,690 community members empowered with the information and resources to take charge of their own health through in-person or online education - 39,017 free preventive health screenings & counseling provided to community members - 24,197 community members educated through trauma & injury prevention programs including Stop the Bleed to learn how to recognize life-threatening bleeding and intervene effectively, Teen Safe Driving, bike and helmet safety, and many more. - 15,766 students were educated through our school outreach program to promote healthy behaviors like hand washing, healthy eating and sun safety and smoking/vaping avoidance - 15,000 individuals trained in life-saving CPR & AED use - 12,140 high-risk individuals identified and referred for follow up care - 4,366 influenza vaccinations provided to adults & children, free of charge

Part III
Supplemental Information
Provide the information, explanation, or descriptions required for Part I, lines 1a, 1b, 3, 4a, 4b, 4c, 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7, and 8, and for Part II. Also complete this part for any additional information.
Return Reference Explanation
Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a First-class or charter travel CERTAIN BENEFITS, SUCH AS COMPANION TRAVEL, ARE PROVIDED ONLY AS EXCEPTIONS TO CORPORATE POLICY IN COMPELLING CIRCUMSTANCES INVOLVING STRONG BUSINESS PURPOSES. WHEN THESE BUSINESS-RELATED BENEFITS ARE APPROVED AND PROVIDED, HMH ALSO PROVIDES REIMBURSEMENT OF THE TAX, SO THAT THE BENEFIT IS PROVIDED WITHOUT COST TO THE INDIVIDUAL. THE TAX REIMBURSEMENTS WERE TREATED AS TAXABLE INCOME AND REPORTED AS SUCH ON THE FORM W-2 (OR 1099-MISC, IN THE CASE OF A BOARD MEMBER), AND INCLUDED IN THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN SCHEDULE J FOR LISTED INDIVIDUALS. FIRST CLASS TRAVEL: HMH HAS A DETAILED AND THOROUGH CORPORATE POLICY ON REIMBURSEMENT OF BUSINESS EXPENSES, INCLUDING EXPENSES OF TRAVEL FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES. THE HMH EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT POLICY GENERALLY PROHIBITS FIRST CLASS TRAVEL, BUT ALLOWS AN UPGRADE IN VERY LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES. HMH ENCOURAGES SENIOR LEADERS TO UTILIZE THE TRAIN NETWORK FOR TRAVEL WHEN APPROPRIATE. HMH'S POLICY ALLOWS FOR BUSINESS CLASS TRAVEL (WHICH CAN BE THE EQUIVALENT OF FIRST CLASS TRAVEL, WHERE BUSINESS CLASS IS THE ONLY CLASS ABOVE ECONOMY/COACH), IF THE TRAVEL SEGMENT EXCEEDS TEN HOURS OF SCHEDULED FLYING TIME OR IF APPROVED BY THE CEO. THE BUSINESS CLASS AFFORDS THE TRAVELER THE ABILITY TO WORK ON CONFIDENTIAL HMH RELATED BUSINESS DURING TRAVEL TIME. UNLIKE BUSINESS CLASS, TRAVELING COACH DOES NOT PROVIDE THE EXECUTIVE WITH A REASONABLE MEANS TO WORK ON HMH BUSINESS DURING TRAVEL TIME. NO AMOUNTS HAVE BEEN INCLUDED AS REPORTABLE COMPENSATION AS THESE TRAVEL EXPENSES WERE INCURRED FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES. BUSINESS CLASS TRAVEL (WHERE THE EQUIVALENT OF FIRST CLASS TRAVEL) WAS PROVIDED TO SEVEN SENIOR EXECUTIVES AND THREE BOARD MEMBERS.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Travel for companions TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS: HMH PROVIDES FOR BOARD MEMBERS AND CEO SPOUSAL TRAVEL FOR CRITICAL BUSINESS EVENTS THAT ARE ORDINARY AND NECESSARY. THE BOARD MEMBERS AND CEO SPEND AN EXTENSIVE AMOUNT OF TIME AWAY FROM THEIR FAMILIES. THE SPOUSES HAVE A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN ASSURING THE ATTENDANCE AND FOCUS OF BOARD MEMBERS AND CEO AT THESE CRITICAL ORGANIZATION EVENTS. SUCH SPOUSAL TRAVEL WAS PROVIDED IN 2023 TO THREE BOARD MEMBERS, AND THE ENTIRE SPOUSAL TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT AMOUNT HAS BEEN TREATED AS TAXABLE INCOME TO THIS INDIVIDUAL.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 3 Arrangement used to establish the top management official's compensation PLEASE REFER TO OUR RESPONSE TO CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B, QUESTIONS 15A & 15B INCLUDED IN SCHEDULE O.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4a Severance or change-of-control payment THE FOLLOWING INDIVIDUAL RECEIVED SEVERANCE PAYMENTS DURING THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023. THE FOLLOWING AMOUNT WAS INCLUDED IN THE INDIVIDUAL'S 2023 W-2 AND IN COLUMN B(III) OF SCHEDULE J: THERESA BRODRICK, $424,029.

AMIE THORNTON, $42,606; REGINA FOLEY, $46,979; DONNA SNIDER, $65,841; AND KURT FLORIAN THOMAS, $39,550. THE DEFERRED COMPENSATION AMOUNTS REFLECTED IN COLUMN (C) FOR THE FOLLOWING INDIVIDUALS INCLUDE BENEFITS IN AN INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 457(F) PLAN (NON-QUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN). THESE AMOUNTS ARE SUBJECT TO A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF FORFEITURE. THESE INDIVIDUALS WILL NOT EARN THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE THE DEFERRED COMPENSATION AMOUNTS UNLESS AND UNTIL THEY PROVIDE SUBSTANTIAL FUTURE SERVICES TO THE ORGANIZATION. WHEN THE FUTURE SERVICES REQUIREMENT IS MET, THE AMOUNTS WILL BECOME VESTED, WILL BE TAXED, WILL BE INCLUDED ON THE W-2, AND WILL BE REPORTED AGAIN ON THIS SCHEDULE., KENNETH N.

WE ARE COMMITTED TO DELIVERING THE BEST ENVIRONMENT FOR OUR PATIENTS, PHYSICIANS AND TEAM MEMBERS. Jersey Shore University Medical Center =========== In 2023, Jersey Shore University Medical Center broke ground on a brand new, state-of-the-art cardiovascular suite. The $45 million, 30,000-square-foot expansion project will provide patients with a one-stop-shop for comprehensive cardiovascular treatment and is expected to open in the fourth quarter of 2024. Features include: -10 new labs outfitted with the most advanced technology, including: -4 dedicated cardiac catheterization labs, uniquely equipped with intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) technology to precisely identify plaque deposits from inside the artery -4 electrophysiology labs to perform minimally invasive left atrial appendage occlusion procedures (Watchman and Amulet devices) and offer innovative ablation treatment -2 hybrid operating rooms featuring Siemens Healthineers ARTIS icono biplane imaging technology for complex minimally invasive procedures (i.e. TAVR, MitraClip and cardiac catheterization/PCI) or convert to an open procedure if necessary -Expanded 28-bay patient prep and recovery area tripling current patient capacity -Centralized location, closer to the ED and ORs -Design and functionality created with input from physicians, nurses, technicians and other hands-on experts High-Quality Perinatal Care Jersey Shore University Medical Center and JFK University Medical Center have been redesignated as Baby-Friendly Hospitals. The Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative is an international health program that promotes evidence-based infant feeding practices to ensure all families receive the support needed to meet their feeding goals, ultimately improving the health of women and children in the community. We are extremely proud to be recognized for the hard work of our team members throughout the Baby-Friendly process in receiving this exclusive designation. Newly Unveiled Neuroscience Treatment Center In January 2023, Jersey Shore University Medical Center celebrated the opening of the Harris Neuroscience Treatment Center. The expansive, nearly 10,000 sq. foot, combined physician office and treatment center is home to experts in several neurological diseases and conditions and is part of Hackensack Meridian Neuroscience Institute. Patients can visit their physicians and other providers at the center to receive advanced diagnostic testing and treatments in a range of conditions, including; ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) and other neuromuscular disorders; Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, dystonia and other movement disorders; neuro-oncology including brain and spine tumor treatments; epilepsy and seizure disorders; headaches and migraines and stroke prevention. HMH Carrier Behavioral Health ========== Carrier Clinic Expertise Meets Raritan Bay Community In early 2023 we announced the expansion of the Carrier Clinic brand to Raritan Bay Medical Center, and introduced Carrier Behavioral Health. The move strengthens the delivery of award-winning behavioral health care services to individuals in the Raritan Bay service area. For over a century, Carrier Clinic has been a world-class facility for behavioral health needs in the tri-state region and ranks among the top psychiatric and substance use disorders rehab recovery centers in New Jersey, offering comprehensive behavioral and addiction treatment services. The new Carrier Behavioral Health expansion increases capacity from 24 beds to 81 as part of Hackensack Meridian Health's $35 million investment into Raritan Bay Medical Center, and fully opened to the public in the fall 2023. The partnership combines Carrier Clinic's expertise with Raritan Bay Medical Center's expanded behavioral health services, programs, and facilities to meet the needs of patients. First-of-Its-Kind Surgery Center & Stay Suites Opens in New Jersey Hackensack Meridian Health launched a first-of-its- kind hyper specialized musculoskeletal ambulatory surgery center (ASC) in New Jersey. In partnership with ValueHealth LLC, a nationally recognized leader in Ambulatory Centers of Excellence (ACE)TM, and Surgery Partners, one of the country's leading ASC management companies, the new state-of-the-art Hackensack Musculoskeletal Surgery Center, opened on the campus of Hackensack University Medical Center. Hackensack Musculoskeletal Stay Suites, an affiliated and partnered entity co-located in the same building as the surgery center, will offer patients an extended-stay opportunity in an innovative, recovery-focused environment following joint replacement procedures. The combined ASC and Stay Suites facility will offer ValueHealth's Muve program for hip and knee replacement patients, which is a comprehensive episode-of-care program that services patients preoperatively and postoperatively for a full year. The Muve program has demonstrated superior outcomes for joint replacement patients throughout ValueHealth's network of partnerships across the country. JFK University Medical Center ========= New MRI Enhances Image Quality and Patient Comfort JFK University Medical Center is the second facility in New Jersey to offer the MAGNETOM Vida 3T MRI, which adapts to unique patient needs such as weight and anatomy and provides a more precise and faster MRI experience than traditional MRI technologies. The system uses very powerful magnets that produce a specialized 3-Tesla magnetic field, which is about twice as powerful as the fields used in conventional high-field MRI scanners, and as much as 15 times stronger than low-field or open MRI scanners. This enables the MRI to provide physicians with high-quality, high-resolution images of the inside of the body. The new MRI's BioMatrix Technology - a groundbreaking collection of sensors, tuners, and interfaces - enables the scanner to adapt automatically to anatomical and physiological characteristics to provide consistent, high-quality imaging for all patient types. This decreases the need for rescans and increases scan consistency across a diverse patient population. Ocean University Medical Center ========== A New Level of Heart and Vascular Care In early 2023, we announced the opening of the Harris Heart & Vascular Center at Ocean University Medical Center. The major investment spans 17,750 square feet, doubling the size of the hospital's previous catheterization lab. The Harris Heart & Vascular Center provides a one-stop-shop for heart and vascular care, accommodating the growing number of procedures performed at the medical center and surrounding hospitals. The center is equipped with: -3 multi-purpose catheterization/vascular labs and a hybrid OR, which enable more efficient preparation, treatment, and recovery for patients. -Cutting-edge technologies that help physicians provide safer, minimally invasive treatments. -Live patient tracking systems to ensure that caregivers are kept informed every step of the way throughout the patient's stay. By providing both diagnostic and minimally- invasive surgical functions in one space, clinicians can diagnose heart and vascular conditions and offer immediate surgical treatment without delay, ensuring higher efficiency and safety for certain high-risk procedures.
Form 990, Part III, Line 1 STMT OF PROGRAM SERVICES ACCOMPLISHMENTS (CONTINUED) Access to Care ============ Hackensack Meridian is dedicated to improving access to care for patients and the community, ensuring timely and equitable health care services for all. Medical Group Continues to Grow Our Hackensack Meridian Medical Group, which includes more than 2,185 physicians and advanced providers at over 380 locations, experienced significant growth in 2023 with the addition of more than 350 new practitioners, 20 practice locations, and 12 new practices. We are dedicated to improving access to care for our patients and the community, and have welcomed primary care physicians as well as a diverse group of specialists to the team last year, including rheumatologists, colorectal, thoracic, trauma and general surgeons, neurologists, pediatric subspecialists and urologists. Hackensack Meridian Medical Group 2023 Stats - +350 New Practitioners - +12 New Practices - 1.8 million Patient Visits (up 10% over 2022) - Reached 7,500 Daily Appointments - 5.6% of Appointments done Via Telehealth - 33% Increase in Online Appointment Scheduling (51% of online appointments scheduled by new patients and 31% were scheduled during non-work hours) One-Stop-Shop for Wellness As part of a multi-year ambulatory strategy focused on improving access to care close to home, Hackensack Meridian Health opened a new Health & Wellness Center in Clark, New Jersey, providing easy, one-stop access to various health care services in Union County. The opening of the Clark location follows the Eatontown Health & Wellness Center opening in 2022. The new center brings together adult primary care clinicians along with other adult specialties, including: . Cardiology . Neurology . Women's Services . Gynecologic Oncology . Obstetrics & Gynecology . Urgent Care The Health & Wellness Center's Urgent Care Center offers convenient hours, including nights and weekends, and provides walk-in care for everyday illness and injury. Advanced services - including virtual visits, imaging, labs, minor surgery, stitches and treatment for broken bones, sprains or strains - are also available. Meeting Patients Where They Are The new Health & Wellness Center in Clark and Urgent Care Center in Lincoln Park that opened in 2023 are only part of a massive investment underway to improve access to care for the community. Twenty-six outpatient care sites that provide a range of convenient services recently opened, or are under construction, representing half a million square feet. In 2023, we experienced: - 26 New Ambulatory Care Sites - 2M+ Outpatient Visits - 215K Imaging Patients - 158K Patients Receiving Dialysis - 114K Urgent Care Visits - 69K Patients Utilizing Our Ambulatory Surgery Centers Expanding Remote Access to Critical Behavioral Health Services Hackensack Meridian Health expanded its use of telehealth and virtual visits for behavioral health services to improve access to care in 2023. Behavioral health telehealth services are now offered at the following locations: --Pediatrician offices in partnership with the NJ Pediatric Psychiatry Collaborative --EPS (emergency psychiatric stabilization) units at all hospital emergency departments --Walk-in Urgent Care in Neptune --Many Hackensack Meridian Medical Group physician offices The network also developed and launched its "Bridge Care" services - an innovative model that provides transitional care, resources and support to patients who may have been seen at urgent care or hospital emergency rooms. Patients can now receive follow-up care through virtual or in person visits as their care team coordinates an expedited appointment with a behavioral health care provider. Use of telehealth reached further into our physician network to provide overnight virtual visit coverage at our hospitals, reducing the need for behavioral health physicians to be on-site and on call, which contributed to their mental health and wellness, retention and recruitment. Investing in Digital to Connect Patients to Care Embracing technology to improve access to care is vital to making access to care easier for our patients. Hackensack Meridian Health has made significant investments to ensure patients have a streamlined and seamless experience when they enter our system. This starts with a digital front door, focused on connecting patients to care through web, text and mobile applications, in a way that is simple and convenient. In 2023, we've implemented a number of digital solutions to improve access to and management of care for our patients. Key highlights include: Patient Texting Appointment Reminders --8.6M outbound appointment reminder text messages sent, leading to a 71% confirmation rate --If patients responded they needed to cancel the appointment, they were immediately texted by agents in the Patient Access Center to reschedule at a time convenient for them Care Gap Closure --From May to September 2023, more than 45,700 text messages sent to patients due for a mammogram, with 6,343 screenings scheduled --12% of patients had a positive result requiring further testing Online Appointment Scheduling --In addition to primary care and specialty services, we expanded online appointment scheduling to screening mammograms and lab services --15,800+ appointments were scheduled online, a 33% increase year over year Patient Access Center (PAC) Our PAC continues to grow exponentially, with a 41% increase in volume in 2023.

Under the Hackensack Meridian Neuroscience Institute umbrella, neurology and neurosurgery team members can now leverage the network resources to provide their patients with enhanced access to evidence-based care protocols, clinical trials, technology, and subspecialty expertise - closer to home, and without the need to refer patients outside Hackensack Meridian Health. Newly Unveiled Neuroscience Treatment Center In January 2023, Jersey Shore University Medical Center celebrated the opening of the Harris Neuroscience Treatment Center. The expansive, nearly 10,000 sq. foot, combined physician office and treatment center is home to experts in several neurological diseases and conditions and is part of Hackensack Meridian Neuroscience Institute. Patients can visit their physicians and other providers at the center to receive advanced diagnostic testing and treatments in a range of conditions, including; ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) and other neuromuscular disorders; Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, dystonia and other movement disorders; neuro-oncology including brain and spine tumor treatments; epilepsy and seizure disorders; headaches and migraines and stroke prevention. Hospital From Home The Hospital From Home program - which piloted at Jersey Shore University Medical Center and JFK University Medical Center in 2022 - expanded to Hackensack University Medical Center in June 2023. The program leverages at-home visits, telehealth and other technologies to provide hospital-level care to eligible patients in their homes. Patients who are otherwise healthy can comfortably connect with their care team through daily in-home nursing visits and physician check-ins via telehealth. Services provided to patients in their homes include but are not limited to: --Medications (including IV and infusion therapy) --Laboratory --Meals and nutrition --Rehabilitation services (including physical, occupational and speech therapy) --Durable medical equipment and oxygen --Diagnostic imaging (x-ray and other mobile scans) --Remote patient monitoring Surveys consistently show that people prefer to be cared for in their homes. As a result, Hospital From Home patients report higher satisfaction with their physician, comfort, convenience of care, admission process and overall care experience. At our Hospital From Home sites, patients expressed high satisfaction with the program and the convenience of receiving hospital-level care and monitoring in their homes.

Form 990, Part III, Line 3 STMT OF PROGRAM SERVICES ACCOMPLISHMENTS Spotlight on DEI Initiatives Our Antiracism Statement At Hackensack Meridian Health, we stand against racism of all forms. We acknowledge that systemic, structural racism is the root cause of many social determinants of health and that it has a detrimental impact on our patients, staff and the communities we serve. We are intentional in our efforts to address systemic structures that perpetuate racism and contribute to health care disparities. Leadership starts at the top and our comprehensive diversity equity and inclusion governance structure ensures leadership accountability that is inclusive of team member engagement at all levels. Additionally, our blueprint for antiracism provides a roadmap for action as we work to address challenges, disparities in health care, inclusion and equity for all. As we continue on this journey, our commitment is to Keep Getting Better. In 2023, we launched Antiracism, Upstander and Allyship training courses to further support these efforts. Annual Days of Understanding and Listening To Understand: With the country's ongoing and ever evolving social and cultural landscape, we continued two key programs in 2023 - our Annual Days of Understanding and our monthly Listening to Understand discussion groups. These programs encourage our 37,000 team members to participate in difficult conversations about race, social justice, socio-economic and even global events in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. Supplier Diversity Throughout 2023, we continued our efforts to support a more diverse supply chain. One highlight included the first Virtual Supplier Diversity Showcase, held in partnership with the African American Chamber of Commerce NJ. At that time, there was a critical shortage of a specific cancer treatment drug. Broughton Pharmaceuticals, one of the Showcase presenters, was able to provide the drug immediately. Through this successful collaboration with a diverse vendor, our patients were able to access a critical drug needed for cancer therapy. Our Supplier Diversity Mentorship program continued in 2023. The mentoring/protege program focuses on enhancing the specialized capabilities of disadvantaged small businesses in their efforts to secure large private and public agency construction projects. Unconscious Bias Training Our entire workforce was trained on unconscious bias in 2023, with a 100% completion rate. This customized training introduced team members and leaders to the concept of unconscious bias while allowing them to explore the impact of such biases on our work and patient care environment. Addressing unconscious bias is a critical component of our overall Diversity Equity & Inclusion strategy to enforce health equity for our patients and create a more inclusive workplace for all.

IS RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWING THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND SPECIFIED KEY EMPLOYEES (SENIOR MANAGEMENT) OF THE PARENT AND ALL OF THE SUBSIDIARY ORGANIZATIONS. THE COMMITTEE HAS ADOPTED A WRITTEN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY, WHICH IT FOLLOWS WHEN IT REVIEWS AND APPROVES COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS. THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY RECOGNIZES THE SIZE AND COMPLEXITY OF THE HEALTH CARE NETWORK AND THE CRITICAL NEED TO HAVE AND RETAIN EXECUTIVES THAT CONSISTENTLY DEMONSTRATE SUPERIOR LEVELS OF PERFORMANCE SO THAT THE HEALTH NETWORK CAN FULFILL ITS CHARITABLE MISSION AND STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES. THE COMMITTEE REVIEWS THE "TOTAL COMPENSATION", INCLUDING BOTH CURRENT AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND ALL EMPLOYEE BENEFITS, BOTH QUALIFIED AND NON-QUALIFIED, ON AT LEAST AN ANNUAL BASIS TO ENSURE THAT THE "TOTAL COMPENSATION" OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, OTHER OFFICERS AND SPECIFIED MEMBERS OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT IS REASONABLE. TO ASSIST WITH THE REVIEW, THE COMMITTEE ENGAGES THE SERVICES OF A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED INDEPENDENT CONSULTING FIRM SPECIALIZING IN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION FOR NOT-FOR-PROFIT HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATIONS, AND RECEIVES NATIONAL AND REGIONAL MARKET DATA FOR COMPARABLE ORGANIZATIONS, A REPORT SUMMARIZING SUCH DATA, AND AN OPINION LETTER RELATING TO THE REASONABLENESS OF EACH REVIEWED EXECUTIVE'S TOTAL COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS. ADDITIONALLY, A SENIOR MEMBER OF THE CONSULTING FIRM ATTENDS THE COMMITTEE'S MEETINGS TO PROVIDE INFORMATION AND TO RESPOND TO QUESTIONS BY THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE. THE INDEPENDENT COMMITTEE UTILIZES THE OUTSIDE MARKET DATA COMPARABILITY AND, BASED UPON THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY, THE ORGANIZATION'S PERFORMANCE, BUSINESS JUDGMENT CONSIDERATIONS, AND THE INDIVIDUAL'S PERFORMANCE, REVIEWS AND APPROVES COMPENSATION FOR THE REVIEWED MEMBERS OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT. GUIDED AT EACH MEETING BY OUTSIDE COUNSEL TO THE COMMITTEE, THE COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW PROCESS UTILIZED BY THE COMMITTEE IS INTENTIONALLY STRUCTURED TO QUALIFY FOR THE REBUTTAL PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS UNDER SECTION 4958 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986: 1. THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT IS APPROVED IN ADVANCE BY THE COMMITTEE, WHICH IS AN "AUTHORIZED BODY" OF THE ORGANIZATION COMPOSED ENTIRELY OF INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT HAVE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE IRS REGULATIONS UNDER SECTION 4958; 2. THE COMMITTEE OBTAINS AND RELIES UPON "APPROPRIATE DATA AS TO COMPARABILITY (FOR COMPARABLE POSITIONS AT SIMILAR HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS) PRIOR TO MAKING ITS DETERMINATION, WHICH COMPARABILITY DATA IS PROVIDED AND ANALYZED BY THE COMMITTEE'S INDEPENDENT CONSULTING FIRM WITH EXPERTISE IN THE AREA OF NOT-FOR-PROFIT HEALTH CARE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION; AND 3. THE COMMITTEE THOROUGHLY DOCUMENTS ITS REVIEW AND APPROVAL PROCESS, AS WELL AS THE BASIS FOR ITS APPROVALS, CONCURRENTLY WITH MAKING THAT DETERMINATION, AGAIN AS DESCRIBED IN THE IRS REGULATIONS. AS APPROPRIATE, THE COMMITTEE SUPPLEMENTS THE COMPARABILITY DATA WITH OTHER OBJECTIVE FACTORS DESIGNED TO ENSURE THE REASONABLENESS OF THE COMPENSATION PAID, INCLUDING AN ANALYSIS OF INDIVIDUAL GOALS AND OBJECTIVES, ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE, PERSONNEL REVIEWS, EVALUATIONS, SELF-EVALUATIONS, AND ANY WRITTEN OFFERS FROM COMPETING ORGANIZATIONS. THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS APPROVED BY THE COMMITTEE ARE REPORTED IN EXECUTIVE SESSION TO THE FULL BOARD BY THE CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE.
