SOME REASONS INCLUDE:1. OTHER ORGANIZATIONS IN THE COMMUNITY ARE ALREADY ADDRESSING THE NEED WITH STRONG PROGRAMMING AND THE ADDITION OF AN ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE PROGRAM OR SERVICE WOULD DUPLICATE SERVICES WITH LITTLE ADDITIONAL BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY;2. THE NEEDS ARE BEING ADDRESSED AS PART OF ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE'S CONTINUUM OF CARE, SUCH AS CHRONIC DISEASE, AND WE BELIEVE THE NEED WILL BE ADDRESSED THROUGH OUR HEAVY FOCUS ON ADDRESSING OTHER BARRIERS;3. RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS;4.

PART VI, LINE 6:	AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM DESCRIPTIONADVOCATE HEALTH CARE (ILLINOIS) AND AURORA HEALTH CARE (WISCONSIN) MERGED IN 2018 TO BECOME ADVOCATE AURORA HEALTH. ADVOCATE AURORA HEALTH'S ILLINOIS HOSPITALS (ADVOCATE) ARE NOT-FOR-PROFIT AND ARE RELATED TO BOTH THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH IN AMERICA AND THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST. THE ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE NETWORK BOARD MEMBERS, LEADERSHIP AND TEAM MEMBERS (STAFF/EMPLOYEES) ARE COMMITTED TO POSITIVELY AFFECTING THE HEALTH STATUS AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF INDIVIDUALS AND POPULATIONS IN COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE ORGANIZATION THROUGH PROGRAMS AND PRACTICES THAT SUPPORT THE ADVOCATE AURORA VISION OF "WE HELP PEOPLE LIVE WELL." PRIOR TO 2016, THE COMMUNITY FACING FUNCTION WAS LED BY A TEAM OF ADVOCATE SYSTEM-LEVEL INDIVIDUALS WHOSE JOB RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDED VARIOUS COMMUNITY ROLES MORE CLOSELY ALIGNED WITH COMMUNITY RELATIONS. IN AN ONGOING EFFORT TO SUPPORT ITS HOSPITALS IN ADDRESSING COMMUNITY HEALTH PRIORITIES, ADVOCATE AURORA'S SYSTEM LEADERSHIP DIRECTED THE FORMATION OF A COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT IN 2016. THE DEPARTMENT IS LED BY A SYSTEM EXECUTIVE AND STAFFED WITH PUBLIC/COMMUNITY HEALTH SPECIALISTS WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORTING, EXECUTING COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS, EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION, AND COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS WITHIN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY ADVOCATE. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH TEAM HAS SINCE LED TWO CHNA CYCLES. THE MOST RECENT CHNA REPORTS WERE APPROVED BY THE ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE NETWORK BOARD AND POSTED IN DECEMBER 2019, FOLLOWED BY APPROVAL AND POSTING OF THE HOSPITALS' COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLANS IN 2020. IN OCTOBER 2019, THE ADVOCATE AURORA BOARD APPROVED A COMMUNITY STRATEGY THAT WOULD SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES AND CONTINUE TO SUPPORT SYSTEM-WIDE PROGRAMS THAT ADDRESS THE HEALTH NEEDS OF PATIENTS, FAMILIES AND THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY ADVOCATE AURORA. THROUGH THIS STRATEGY, WE WILL BUILD HEALTH EQUITY, ENSURE ACCESS AND IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES IN OUR COMMUNITIES THROUGH EVIDENCE-INFORMED SERVICES AND INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIPS BY ADDRESSING MEDICAL NEEDS AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS. BASED ON NEED AND EFFECT ON HEALTH EQUITY, AS IDENTIFIED IN ADVOCATE AURORA'S 27 HOSPITAL CHNA REPORTS AND IN INDUSTRY LITERATURE, ADVOCATE AURORA PRIORITIZED THE FOLLOWING SIX FOCUS AREAS ON WHICH THE INDIVIDUAL HOSPITAL COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLANS ARE BUILT AND SUPPORT, INCLUDING: 1) ACCESS/PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES; 2) ACCESS/ BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES; 3) WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT; 4) COMMUNITY SAFETY; 5) AFFORDABLE HOUSING; AND 6) FOOD SECURITY. GIVEN THAT ADVOCATE AND AURORA HAVE SEPARATE FEIN'S, THE NARRATIVE WITHIN THIS DOCUMENT PRIMARILY DESCRIBES PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES PERTAINING TO ADVOCATE (AAH ILLINOIS). ADVOCATE'S BOARD, SYSTEM LEADERSHIP AND TEAM MEMBERS ARE FULLY ENGAGED IN PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES THAT SUPPORT SYSTEM AND SITE EFFORTS IN ACHIEVING MILESTONES IN EACH OF THESE COMMUNITY STRATEGY FOCUS AREAS. EXAMPLES OF AFFILIATED SYSTEM PROGRAMS/SERVICES THAT ALIGN WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY STRATEGY AND SUPPORT EFFORTS TO ADDRESS THESE KEY FOCUS AREAS ARE PROVIDED IN THE FOLLOWING NARRATIVE. 1. ACCESS/PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES. THE FIRST OF SIX KEY AREAS TARGETED BY ADVOCATE'S COMMUNITY STRATEGY IS IMPROVING ACCESS/CONNECTING PATIENTS TO PRIMARY MEDICAL HOMES. ADVOCATE IS COMMITTED TO UNDERTAKING AND SUPPORTING INITIATIVES THAT ENHANCE ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, INCLUDING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, CARE COORDINATION, LANGUAGE ASSISTANCE, CULTURALLY SENSITIVE PROVISION OF CARE, AND PREVENTION EDUCATION AND WELLNESS SERVICES ACROSS THE LIFESPAN AND WITHIN THE DIVERSE COMMUNITIES ADVOCATE SERVES. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. ADVOCATE OFFERS A VERY GENEROUS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, REQUIRING NO PAYMENTS FROM THE PATIENTS MOST IN NEED AND PROVIDING DISCOUNTS TO UNINSURED AND INSURED PATIENTS. PATIENTS EARNING UP TO SIX TIMES THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL) AND INSURED PATIENTS EARNING UP TO TWO AND HALF TIMES THE FPL, MAY QUALIFY FOR A FULL OR PARTIAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT. ADDITIONALLY, A CATASTROPHIC ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT IS AVAILABLE FOR UNINSURED AND INSURED PATIENTS WHOSE INCOMES EXCEED THE TRADITIONAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INCOME GUIDELINES AND HAVE OUTSTANDING PATIENT BALANCES OF $25,000 OR MORE FOR A SINGLE DATE OF SERVICE OR SUM OF SEVERAL DATES OF SERVICE. THESE PATIENTS MAY QUALIFY TO RECEIVE A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNT THAT REDUCES THEIR OUTSTANDING BALANCE TO 25% OF THEIR NET INCOME.

ADVOCATE IS INVOLVED WITH MULTIPLE NON-TRADITIONAL COMMUNITY PARTNERS IN LOCAL AND SUSTAINABLE FOOD INITIATIVES TO ADDRESS FOOD INSECURITY. RX MOBILE PANTRY. IN 2019, ADVOCATE CONDELL LAUNCHED THE RX MOBILE FOOD PANTRY TO SERVE FOOD INSECURE (FI) RESIDENTS OF THE ROUND LAKE AREA. THE PROGRAM GREW FROM THE MEDICAL CENTER'S COMMUNITY HEALTH EFFORTS IN SCREENING AND REFERRAL FOR FOOD INSECURITY. IN DECEMBER OF 2021, ADVOCATE CONDELL'S RX MOBILE FOOD PANTRY PROGRAM TRANSITIONED INTO AN RX MARKET, WHICH WILL BE MANAGED BY CATHOLIC CHARITIES. THE PERMANENT LOCATION WILL CONTINUE ADDRESSING THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY WHILE OFFERING THE SAME VARIETY OF HEALTHY FOODS DURING SEVERAL DAYS AND AT VARIOUS HOURS OF EACH WEEK. THE PROGRAM EVOLVED INTO A SUSTAINABLE MODEL THAT HAS SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS IN THAT AREA.

IN ADDITION TO THE MANY PROGRAM EXAMPLES PROVIDED PREVIOUSLY, ANOTHER SYSTEM-LEVEL FUNDED PROGRAM IS PROVIDED BELOW.FAITH AND HEALTH PARTNERSHIPS. ADVOCATE AURORA HEALTH'S FAITH AND HEALTH PARTNERSHIPS PROGRAM WORKS SIDE BY SIDE WITH FAITH COMMUNITIES TO PROMOTE HEALTH EQUITY BY MOBILIZING THE TRANSFORMING POWER OF SOCIAL CONNECTEDNESS AND SPIRITUAL WISDOM. THE PROGRAM SUPPORTS A NEIGHBORHOOD MODEL THAT EMBEDS AAH TEAM MEMBERS IN SPECIFIC NEIGHBORHOODS IDENTIFIED AS PRIORITIES THROUGH THE AAH COMMUNITY STRATEGY. TEAM MEMBERS WORK WITH A COLLABORATIVE NETWORK OF FAITH COMMUNITIES AND COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS TO ADDRESS HEALTH ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED BY COMMUNITY MEMBERS AS ISSUES THAT ARE IMPORTANT TO THEM. IN ILLINOIS WE HAVE NEIGHBORHOOD NETWORK PROGRAMS IN SOUTH CHICAGO AND AVONDALE AND ARE FOCUSED EFFORTS ON REDUCING STRESS AND INCREASING SOCIAL CONNECTEDNESS, MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE, AND SUPPORTING FOOD ACCESS. FAITH AND HEALTH PARTNERSHIPS ALSO WORKS ACROSS OUR FOOTPRINT ON BUILDING CAPACITY OF FAITH LEADERS AND CONGREGATIONS TO PROMOTE THE WHOLISTIC HEALTH OF THEIR MEMBERS AND THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE, PARTICULARLY AROUND MENTAL HEALTH. AAH ALSO SUPPORTS A FAITH COMMUNITY NURSE NETWORK OF 27 NURSES THAT SERVE CONGREGATIONS ACROSS THE CHICAGOLAND REGION.AT BOTH THE SYSTEM AND SITE LEVELS, ADVOCATE IS WORKING TO EXAMINE AND ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH INEQUITIES IN OUR COMMUNITIES. TO SUPPORT THE ADVOCATE HOSPITALS IN CONDUCTING CHNA'S, ADVOCATE PURCHASED ACCESS TO METOPIO, A CHNA DATA TOOL. METOPIO IS A SOFTWARE AND SERVICES COMPANY THAT IS GROUNDED IN THE PHILOSOPHY THAT COMMUNITIES ARE CONNECTED THROUGH PLACES AND PEOPLE. METOPIO'S TOOLS AND VISUALIZATIONS USE DATA TO REVEAL VALUABLE, INTERCONNECTED FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE HEALTH OUTCOMES IN DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. METOPIO OFFERS A DATA, TAILORED TO SUPPORT ALL ADVOCATE AURORA HEALTH HOSPITALS WITH IDENTIFYING HEALTH INEQUITIES IN COMMUNITIES. METOPIO USES THE MOST CURRENT DATA SOURCES AND CREATES TOOLS AND INDICES THAT FOCUS ON THE COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE AAH SERVICES AREAS. THE DATA CAN BE USED TO FOCUS ON SPECIFIC REGIONS, COMMUNITIES, AND HOSPITAL SERVICES AREAS. BELOW IS A DESCRIPTION OF TWO IMPORTANT INDICES FOUND IN METOPIO. HARDSHIP INDEX DESCRIPTION. THE HARDSHIP INDEX WAS ORIGINALLY DEVELOPED BY RICHARD P. NATHAN AND CHARLES F. ADAMS, JR. IN 1976 TO COMPARE SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITIONS BETWEEN COMMUNITIES. IT IS HIGHLY CORRELATED WITH OTHER MEASURES OF ECONOMIC HARDSHIP, SUCH AS LABOR FORCE STATISTICS, AND WITH POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES. THE INDEX COMBINES THE FOLLOWING TOPICS INTO A SINGLE COMPOSITE VALUE ON A SCALE OF 0-100: - CROWDED HOUSING (MORE THAN ONE PERSON PER ROOM) - POVERTY RATE FOR HOUSEHOLDS - UNEMPLOYMENT RATE - ADULTS WITH A HIGH SCHOOL DEGREE OR EQUIVALENT - AGE DEPENDENCY RATIO (% OF RESIDENTS WHO ARE <18 OR >65 YEARS OLD, COMPARED TO THOSE OF WORKING AGE) - PER-CAPITA INCOME HIGHER VALUES INDICATE GREATER HARDSHIP AND CORRELATE HIGHER WITH POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES. THE INDEX DOES NOT PRESERVE THE RATIO BETWEEN TWO PLACES, SO IF ONE PLACE HAS TWICE THE HARDSHIP INDEX OF ANOTHER, WE CANNOT SAY THAT IT EXPERIENCES "TWICE AS MUCH HARDSHIP" AS ANOTHER PLACE. INSTEAD, COMPARE DIFFERENT PLACES USING THE CONSTITUENT TOPICS. SOCIAL VULNERABILITY INDEX. THE SOCIAL VULNERABILITY INDEX (SVI) WAS DEVELOPED BY THE CENTER FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC) TO HELP PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLANNERS IDENTIFY AND MAP THE COMMUNITIES THAT WILL MOST LIKELY NEED SUPPORT BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER A HAZARDOUS EVENT, SUCH AS A NATURAL DISASTER, DISEASE OUTBREAK, OR CHEMICAL SPILL. SVI INDICATES RELATIVE VULNERABILITY BY RANKING PLACES ON 15 SOCIAL FACTORS THAT CAN BE DIVIDED INTO 4 CATEGORIES: - SOCIOECONOMIC - HOUSEHOLD COMPOSITION & DISABILITY - MINORITY STATUS & LANGUAGE - HOUSING TYPE & TRANSPORTATION THE ORIGINAL SCORE IS ON A SCALE FROM 0-1, BUT IT IS MULTIPLIED BY 100 FOR READABILITY ON METOPIO. A HIGHER SCORE REPRESENTS A COMMUNITY MORE VULNERABLE TO A HAZARDOUS EVENT.
PART VI, 6. AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM CONT.	ADVOCATE CONTINUES TO WORK LOCALLY AND NATIONALLY WITH MANY PROMINENT COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO ADDRESS SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH. EXAMPLES OF THESE EFFORTS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING. HEALTH CARE ANCHOR NETWORK (HAN). AAH IS A FOUNDING MEMBER OF THE HEALTHCARE ANCHOR NETWORK WHICH HAS EXPANDED TO INCLUDE 70 OTHER AREA HEALTH SYSTEM AND HOSPITAL PARTNERS. AAH HAS SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC AND HUMAN RESOURCES ACROSS ITS SERVICE AREA AS THE LARGEST EMPLOYER IN THE MILWAUKEE AREA AND THE FOURTH LARGEST IN CHICAGO. TO LEVERAGE THESE RESOURCES, IN 2019, AAH ANNOUNCED A COMMITMENT TO INVEST $50 MILLION TO HELP ADDRESS THE ECONOMIC, RACIAL, AND ENVIRONMENTAL DISPARITIES THAT IMPACT COMMUNITY HEALTH OUTCOMES AND DECREASE HEALTH INEQUITY. ADDITIONALLY, AAH COMMITTED TO DRIVING COMMUNITY HEALTH AND WELL-BEING THROUGH ITS INCLUSIVE, LOCAL HIRING AND LOCAL PURCHASING STRATEGIES AND INITIATIVES.ADVOCATE AURORA $50M INVESTMENT PLEDGE. AAH IS AMONG THE FIRST HEALTH SYSTEMS IN THE COUNTRY TO MAKE A SIGNIFICANT COMMITMENT TO INVESTING IN TARGETED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. THE ANCHOR STRATEGY INVESTMENTS ARE TARGETED TO ENHANCE CRITICAL SERVICES SUCH AS AFFORDABLE OR SUPPORTIVE HOUSING AND FOOD ACCESS IN COMMUNITIES THAT LEAD TO IMPROVED HEALTH AND DEMONSTRATED DOWNSTREAM BENEFITS TO OUR PATIENTS AND THE COMMUNITY. INITIALLY, THE INVESTMENT WORK WAS DONE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FINANCING INSTITUTIONS (CDFIS) TO FUND PROJECTS. ALTHOUGH NOT A PROFIT MAXIMIZING ACTIVITY, THIS INVESTMENT COMMITMENT WILL RESULT IN A RETURN OF THE PRINCIPAL TO THE ORGANIZATION WITH INTEREST TO ENSURE A SUSTAINABLE INVESTMENT CAPACITY FOR REINVESTMENT OVER TIME. A COMMUNITY INVESTMENT STRATEGY TEAM WAS FORMED TO PLAN AND GUIDE THE WORKCONSISTING OF FINANCE AND TREASURY, COMMUNITY HEALTH AND OPERATIONS TEAMS TO DEVELOP THE SCOPE AND PROCESS. THE TEAM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DEPLOYING $50 MILLION IN LOANS TO CDFIS ACROSS OUR FOOTPRINT BY THE END OF 2025. TO DATE, THE TEAM HAS COMPLETED 4 CONTRACTS WITH LOCAL CDFIS: $25M WITH LOCAL INITIATIVE SUPPORT CORPORATION (LISC) $5M WITH IFF $2.5M WITH CHICAGO COMMUNITY LOAN FUND (CCLF) $1M WITH WISCONSIN WOMEN'S BUSINESS INITIATIVE CORPORATION (WWBIC)ADVOCATE AURORA PURCHASING COMMITMENT. THIS ANCHOR STRATEGY BUILDS ON THE EXISTING DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION PURCHASING STRATEGIES AND ESTABLISHES TARGETS RELATED TO INCREASING THE NUMBER OF LOCAL AND DIVERSE VENDORS WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF THE INVESTMENT STRATEGY ALSO FUNDING STRATEGIC BUSINESSES SUCH AS URBAN AGRICULTURE VENTURES TO QUALIFY MORE BUSINESS AS VENDORS. ON JUNE 9, 2021, AAH ANNOUNCED SIGNING THE "IMPACT PURCHASING COMMITMENT"DESIGNED BY THE HEALTH ANCHOR NETWORK (HAN)TO BUILD HEALTHY, EQUITABLE, AND CLIMATE-RESILIENT LOCAL ECONOMIES THROUGH SPENDING. THE COMMITMENT INCLUDES INCREASING SPENDING WITH MINORITY AND WOMEN OWNED BUSINESS ENTERPRISES (MWBES) AS WELL AS LOCAL AND EMPLOYEE-OWNED, COOPERATIVELY OWNED AND/OR NONPROFIT-OWNED ENTERPRISES, BY AT LEAST $1 BILLION OVER FIVE YEARS. AAH WILL ALSO WORK WITH AT LEAST TWO OF THEIR LARGE EXISTING VENDORS TO CREATE HIRING PIPELINES IN THE DISINVESTED COMMUNITIES THAT IT SERVES AND WILL COMMIT TO ADOPTING SUSTAINABLE PROCUREMENT GOALS. THERE ARE SEVERAL ADDITIONAL EXAMPLES OF EFFORTS TO STRENGTHEN CORPORATE OPTIONS THROUGH HUMAN RESOURCE, SUPPLY CHAIN, ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP AND INVESTMENT POLICIES THAT IMPACT THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH IN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY ADVOCATE.ADVOCATE IS ALSO STRENGTHENING CORPORATE OPTIONS THROUGH HUMAN RESOURCE, SUPPLY CHAIN, ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP AND INVESTMENT POLICIES TO IMPACT THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH IN THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES.ENVIRONMENTAL LEADERSHIP. REDUCING WASTE, CONSERVING ENERGY AND WATER, MINIMIZING USE OF TOXIC CHEMICALS, AND CONSTRUCTING ECO-FRIENDLY BUILDINGS FOR TODAY AND TOMORROWALL THESE EFFORTS HAVE A DIRECT BENEFIT ON THE HEALTH OF LOCAL COMMUNITIES VIA CLEANER COMMUNITIES, HEALTHIER AIR QUALITY, REDUCED GREENHOUSE GASES, AND PRESERVATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES. AS ADVOCATE WORKS TO REDUCE THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND HEALTH IMPACTS OF HEALTH CARE, ITS ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP PRACTICES EASE THE BURDEN OF HEALTH CARE COSTS BOTH DIRECTLY (LOWER ENERGY COSTS) AND INDIRECTLY (LOWER ENVIRONMENTALLY RELATED DISEASE BURDEN) AND HELP SAVE RESOURCES FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. IN ADDITION TO CONTINUING TO REDUCE ADVOCATE'S OWN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AS A HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATION, ADVOCATE ALSO PROVIDES NATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND MENTORING IN SUSTAINABLE HEALTH CARE THROUGH THE MEMBERSHIP AND PARTICIPATION IN SEVERAL SUSTAINABILITY LEADERSHIP COUNCILS AND GROUPS. THESE COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS ADDRESS MULTIPLE SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES, INCLUDING ANTIBIOTIC OVERUSE IN AGRICULTURE, SAFER CHEMICALS IN FURNISHINGS AND MEDICAL PRODUCTS, CLIMATE CHANGE, CLINICAL PLASTICS RECYCLING, AND ENVIRONMENTALLY PREFERABLE AND LOCAL PURCHASING, SPURRING MOVEMENT TOWARD HEALTHIER AND MORE SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES THROUGHOUT THE HEALTH CARE SECTOR AND WIDER MARKETPLACE.

A PRIMARY VALUE OF ADVOCATE'S COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT IS COLLABORATION WITH PARTNERS, PREFERABLY THROUGH A COLLECTIVE IMPACT MODEL. IN ORDER TO ALIGN INITIATIVES WITH LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND THEIR COMMUNITY HEALTH PRIORITIES, ALL ADVOCATE HOSPITALS COLLABORATE WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE HEALTH DEPARTMENTS DURING THE CHNA AND HEALTH IMPROVEMENT (IMPLEMENTATION PLAN) CYCLES. ONE SUCH NOTABLE COLLABORATION IN WHICH ADVOCATE SYSTEM LEADERSHIP PLAYED A VITAL ROLE IS AS FOLLOWS. THE ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY. ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE, PRESENCE HEALTH (NOW KNOWN AS AMITA HEALTH) AND THE ILLINOIS PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE (IPHI) WERE THE THREE FOUNDING ORGANIZATIONS OF THE HEALTH IMPACT COLLABORATIVE OF COOK COUNTY (HICCC). THESE ORGANIZATIONS INVITED HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND ALL COOK COUNTY NONPROFIT HOSPITALS TO JOIN THEM IN CREATING WHAT IS NOW ONE OF THE LARGEST CHNA AND COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT COLLABORATIVES IN THE COUNTRY. THE INITIAL PARTICIPATING HOSPITALS AND HEALTH DEPARTMENTS WORKED TOGETHER TO DESIGN A SHARED LEADERSHIP MODEL AND COLLABORATIVE INFRASTRUCTURE TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY-ENGAGED PLANNING PARTNERSHIPS AND STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT OF IMPLEMENTATION PLANS TO FACILITATE MORE EFFECTIVE AND SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT. IN LATE 2017, HICCC MERGED WITH THE HEALTHY CHICAGO HOSPITALS COLLABORATIVE TO CREATE THE ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY (THE ALLIANCE). IPHI SERVES AS THE BACKBONE ORGANIZATION FOR THE COLLABORATIVE AND THE HOSPITALS PROVIDE FUNDING FOR THE SHARED ASSESSMENT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLANNING WORK. IN 2019, THE ALLIANCE GREW TO INCLUDE 37 NONPROFIT AND PUBLIC HOSPITALS, SIX LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND MORE THAN 100 COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS. IN 2022, THE ALLIANCE COMPLETED A COLLABORATIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENTS (CHNA) FOR CHICAGO AND SUBURBAN COOK COUNTY.

A COPY OF THE REPORT AND THE APPENDICES CAN BE FOUND AT THIS LINK 2022 CHNA REPORT - ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY (ALLHEALTHEQUITY.ORG)PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DATA FROM A DIVERSE RANGE OF SOURCES WERE UTILIZED FOR ROBUST DATA ANALYSIS AND TO IDENTIFY COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IN CHICAGO AND SUBURBAN COOK COUNTY. FOR THE 2022 CHNA, THE ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH EQUITY BUILT ON THE PREVIOUS COLLABORATIVE CHNA WORK (2019). ADVOCATE CONTINUES TO BE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN LEADERSHIP OF THE ALLIANCE PARTNERSHIP, SERVING ON THE STEERING COMMITTEE. ADVOCATE HOSPITALS, AS WELL AS THE OTHER MEMBER HOSPITALS, PROVIDE THE MONETARY SUPPORT FOR THE COLLABORATIVE'S WORK AND SUPPORT THE COST OF STAFF AND OVERSIGHT PROVIDED BY THE ILLINOIS PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE. ADDITIONALLY, ADVOCATE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN LEADING THIS ASSESSMENT WORK AS AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF THE STEERING COMMITTEE, PROVIDING FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO THE ALLIANCE IN 2022.THE PRIORITY AREAS SELECTED BY THE ALLIANCE INCLUDE SOCIAL AND STRUCTURAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH, ACCESS TO CARE, MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS, CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS, INJURY INCLUDING VIOLENCE, AND MATERNAL/FETAL HEALTH. ALL PARTICIPATING HOSPITALS SELECTED SOME OF THE PRIORITIES TO ADDRESS IN THE AREAS SERVED. THERE ARE MULTIPLE WORK GROUPS ADDRESSING THE PRIORITY AREAS AND ADVOCATE STAFF SERVE ON MOST OF THE WORK GROUPS.ADVOCATE PROMOTES ACCOUNTABILITY FOR SYSTEM AND SITE ALIGNMENT BY INCREASING PROGRAM COORDINATION AND DEVELOPING STRONG GOVERNANCE RELATIONSHIPS.SYSTEM OVERSIGHT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH.

COMMUNITY HEALTH IS STRONGLY INTEGRATED INTO ADVOCATE'S GOVERNANCE STRUCTURES. COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCILS, COMPRISED OF COMMUNITY EXPERTS AND HOSPITAL LEADERS, HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED AT EACH OF THE ADVOCATE HOSPITALS. THESE COUNCILS ARE CO-LED BY THE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY HEALTH LEADER AND A HOSPITAL GOVERNING COUNCIL MEMBER. A MINIMUM OF 50% OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS FOR THE 2019 CHNA REPORT AND 2020-2022 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLAN CYCLES WERE COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES WITH A FOCUS ON PEOPLE WHO REPRESENTED UNDERSERVED AND VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. DEPENDENT ON THE HOSPITAL, THE COUNCILS MET THREE OR FOUR TIMES DURING THE YEAR.HOSPITAL COMMUNITY HEALTH STAFF ANALYZED AND PRESENTED PRIMARY AND SECONDARY COMMUNITY HEALTH DATA TO THE HOSPITALS' COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCILS. THE COUNCIL MEMBERS IDENTIFIED THE HOSPITAL SERVICE AREAS' SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS, SUBSEQUENTLY EMPLOYING CONSENSUS-BASED, PRIORITY-SETTING PROCESSES TO DETERMINE THE NEEDS UPON WHICH TO FOCUS. AS PART OF THE PRIORITIZATION PROCESS, THE COUNCILS SCANNED HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY CHALLENGES AND ASSETS, AS WELL AS POTENTIAL PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS THAT MIGHT RESULT IN LARGER HEALTH IMPROVEMENT IMPACT.TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE 2017-2019 CHNA CYCLE DATA ASSESSMENT RESULTS FOR EACH HOSPITAL, VISIT HOSPITAL CHNA REPORTS IMPLEMENTATION PLANS PROGRESS REPORTS \| ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE.
PART VI, 6. AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM CONT.	ENGAGING SYSTEM CLINICAL SERVICE LINES TO EXPAND THEIR FOCUS ON COMMUNITY HEALTH. ADVOCATE IS VIEWED AS A LEADER IN THE POPULATION HEALTH MANAGEMENT ARENA. AN EARLY ADOPTER OF MANAGING CARE ACROSS POPULATIONS, ADVOCATE HAS SIGNIFICANT SUCCESS IN IMPROVING HEALTH OUTCOMES WHILE DECREASING OR MAINTAINING COST OF CARE DELIVERY. ADVOCATE'S COMMUNITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT HAS INTENTIONALLY ALIGNED WITH ADVOCATE POPULATION HEALTH LEADERS AND ADVOCATE SERVICE LINES. THIS ALIGNMENT ASSURES THAT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITIES ADVOCATE SERVES AND OUR PATIENTS RECEIVE COMMUNITY-BASED INTERVENTIONS, AS WELL AS EDUCATION AND PROGRAMMING THAT ALIGNS WITH THEIR HEALTH NEEDS. COMMUNITY PROGRAMS ARE TAILORED TO MEET THE SPECIFIC HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN A COMMUNITY OR A SPECIFIC POPULATION. MANY OF THE EXAMPLES OF EDUCATION AND PROGRAMMING ALIGNED WITH POPULATION HEALTH AND SERVICE LINE DEVELOPMENT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DISCUSSED IN OTHER SECTIONS OF THIS PLAN. ALL ADVOCATE HOSPITALS, FOR EXAMPLE, ARE PARTICIPATING IN LOCAL COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE COLLABORATIVES, FOLLOWING ADVOCATE'S INTEGRATED APPROACH TO IMPLEMENTATION. SEVERAL EXAMPLES OF THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INITIATIVES ARE PROVIDED BELOW. WARM HANDOFF PROGRAM. THREE ADVOCATE HEALTH CARE HOSPITALS, ADVOCATE CONDELL MEDICAL CENTER, ADVOCATE GOOD SHEPHERD HOSPITAL AND ADVOCATE SHERMAN HOSPITAL WORK IN PARTNERSHIP WITH GATEWAY FOUNDATION, A COMMUNITY-BASED ADDICTION MEDICINE TREATMENT PROVIDER, TO IMPLEMENT AN EVIDENCE-BASED MODEL TO SCREEN AND ASSESS PATIENTS COMING TO THE HOSPITAL FOR SUBSTANCE USE. THE WARM HANDOFF PROGRAM INTEGRATES A FULL-TIME CREDENTIALED ENGAGEMENT SPECIALIST EMPLOYED BY GATEWAY FOUNDATION INTO THE HOSPITAL ED TEAM TO ASSESS AND COUNSEL PATIENTS WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER, AND THEN ASSISTS WITH LINKING THEM TO TREATMENT. A GATEWAY FOUNDATION-EMPLOYED RECOVERY COACH ON THE TEAM ALSO PROVIDES SUPPORT TO PATIENTS AS THEY TRANSITION INTO TREATMENT.
