AS THE SYSTEM ENTERS ITS 70TH YEAR OF SERVICE, IT REMAINS COMMITTED TO ITS CORE VALUES AND TO PROVIDING THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF WHOLE PATIENT CARE, TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF THOSE IN CENTRAL APPALACHIA.
PART III, LINE 2: COSTING METHODOLOGY: TO DETERMINE THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE ON PART III, LINE 2, THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE PER THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, WHICH CONSISTS OF GROSS CHARGES LESS DISCOUNTS, WAS CONVERTED TO COST USING THE GLOBAL COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO. PATIENT DISCOUNTS ARE NOT REFLECTED IN BAD DEBT. ANY PAYMENTS ON AN ACCOUNT AFTER IT IS WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT RESULT IN A REVERSAL OF THE ENTIRE ACCOUNT OUT OF BAD DEBT, REINSTATEMENT OF THE PATIENT ACCOUNT RECEIVABLE, AND ANY NEGOTIATED DIFFERENCE IN THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE ACCOUNT AND THE PAYMENT MADE IS WRITTEN OFF TO CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCE. PATIENTS WHO MAY QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE BUT DO NOT APPLY CANNOT BE ESTIMATED. ALL PATIENTS ARE EDUCATED ABOUT AND GIVEN EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO APPLY FOR CHARITY CARE AND, THEREFORE, ARH HAS NO INFORMATION FOR THOSE WHO CHOOSE NOT TO APPLY.
PART III, LINE 3: MANAGEMENT CONTINUALLY MONITORS AND ADJUSTS THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS ASSOCIATED WITH CREDIT RISK.THE CORPORATION'S ABILITY TO COLLECT OUTSTANDING RECEIVABLES IS CRITICAL TO ITS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND CASH FLOWS. TO PROVIDE FOR ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE THAT COULD BECOME UNCOLLECTIBLE IN THE FUTURE, THE CORPORATION ESTABLISHES AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS TO REDUCE THE CARRYING VALUE OF SUCH RECEIVABLES TO THEIR ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE VALUE. THE PRIMARY UNCERTAINTY OF SUCH ALLOWANCES LIES WITH UNINSURED PATIENT RECEIVABLES AND DEDUCTIBLES, CO-PAYMENTS OR OTHER AMOUNTS DUE FROM INDIVIDUAL PATIENTS.THE CORPORATION HAS AN ESTABLISHED PROCESS TO DETERMINE THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS THAT RELIES ON A NUMBER OF ANALYTICAL TOOLS AND BENCHMARKS TO ARRIVE AT A REASONABLE ALLOWANCE. NO SINGLE STATISTIC OR MEASUREMENT DETERMINES THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. SOME OF THE ANALYTICAL TOOLS THAT THE CORPORATION UTILIZES INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, HISTORICAL CASH COLLECTION EXPERIENCE BY PAYOR, REVENUE TRENDS BY PAYOR CLASSIFICATION AND AGED ACCOUNTS FROM DATE OF SERVICE BY PAYOR. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE WRITTEN OFF AFTER COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CORPORATION'S POLICIES.
PART III, LINE 4: THE CORPORATION HAS AN ESTABLISHED PROCESS TO DETERMINE THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS THAT RELIES ON SEVERAL ANALYTICAL TOOLS AND BENCHMARKS TO ARRIVE AT A REASONABLE ALLOWANCE. NO SINGLE STATISTIC OR MEASUREMENT DETERMINES THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. SOME OF THE ANALYTICAL TOOLS THAT THE CORPORATION UTILIZES INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, HISTORICAL CASH COLLECTION EXPERIENCE BY PAYOR, REVENUE TRENDS BY PAYOR CLASSIFICATION AND AGED ACCOUNTS FROM DATE OF SERVICE BY PAYOR. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES ARE WRITTEN OFF AFTER COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CORPORATION'S POLICIES.
PART III, LINE 8: A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE CORPORATION'S PATIENT REVENUES ARE DERIVED FROM SERVICES PROVIDED TO MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES. IN TURN, PAYMENTS RECEIVED FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FELL SHORT OF THE COST TO PROVIDE SUCH SERVICES BY MORE THAN $21 MILLION. MEDICARE RECIPIENTS RELY HEAVILY ON ARH FOR CARE, IN MANY OF THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES, ARH IS THE LONE PROVIDER OF ACUTE HOSPITAL CARE. THE CORPORATION CONSIDERS ITS PARTICIPATION IN THE MEDICARE PROGRAM AND THE ASSOCIATED LOSSES RESULTING THEREOF AS AN ESSENTIAL COMPONENT OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT. ACCORDINGLY, WE DEEM THAT $21,363,379 (OR 100%) OF THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 7 BE TREATED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT.
PART III, LINE 9B: THE PROVISIONS IN THE WRITTEN DEBT COLLECTION POLICY ARE THAT CHARITY AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATIONS ARE VALID FOR 6 MONTHS. AFTER THAT TIME, THE PATIENT MUST REAPPLY AND PRESENT CURRENT FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS AS NECESSARY.
PART VI, LINE 2: IN 2024, APPALACHIAN REGIONAL HEALTHCARE CONTRACTED UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY'S TEAM UP PUBLIC HEALTH COLLABORATIVE TO CONDUCT INDIVIDUAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENTS (CHNA) FOR EACH OF ITS 14 FACILITIES. THESE ASSESSMENTS, CONDUCTED OVER EIGHT MONTHS, INCLUDED OVER 4,000 PUBLIC SURVEYS, 60 FOCUS GROUPS, 14 STEERING COMMITTEES, AND SECONDARY DATA COLLECTION NOT LIMITED TO: HOSPITAL UTILIZATION DATA COUNTY AND STATE HEALTH RANKINGS BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTOR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM DATA KY KIDS COUNT CENSUS DATA CANCER REGISTRY DATAIN ADDITION TO ASSESSING THE CURRENT STATE OF COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS, THESE CHNA REPORTS INCLUDE IMPLEMENTATION PLANS FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS (CALENDAR YEARS 2025-2027) TO ADDRESS GREATEST PRIORITIES, AND AN OUTCOME SUMMARY FROM THE LAST CHNA CONDUCTED (2022).
PART VI, LINE 3: UNDER ARH'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AND POLICY, EACH PATIENT WITHOUT MEDICAL COVERAGE FOR RENDERED SERVICES IS OFFERED A 40% DISCOUNT OF GROSS CHARGES AT TIME OF SERVICE. IF THE PATIENT EXTENDS PAYMENT AT TIME OF SERVICE THEY ARE GIVEN ANOTHER 10% DISCOUNT, MAKING THEIR LIABILITY 50% OF GROSS CHARGES. ALL OF THESE DISCOUNTS ARE APPLIED AT TIME OF CHARGE AND BILLED AFTER THE DISCOUNT IS TAKEN. IF SAID PATIENT IS UNABLE TO MEET THE FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS FOR SERVICE, THEY ARE EDUCATED AND SCREENED FOR POTENTIAL FEDERAL AND/OR STATE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. BY DOING THIS, THE PATIENT IS REVIEWED AND EDUCATED BY ON-SITE FINANCIAL COUNSELORS AND/OR ELIGIBILITY AGENCY TO GET THE INDIVIDUAL PLACED IN A PROGRAM. BASED ON INCOME AND FAMILY STATUS, THE PATIENT IS SCREENED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE FEDERAL AND STATE POVERTY GUIDELINES. AT THIS TIME, ALL APPLICATIONS ARE COMPLETED WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF ARH PERSONNEL AND SUBMITTED FOR APPROVAL. IN THE EVENT AN AGENCY REQUIRES THE PATIENT/GUARANTOR TO APPLY IN PERSON, THE INDIVIDUAL IS ASKED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THAT AGENCY AND FILE THEIR COMPLETED DOCUMENTS. IF THE RESPONSIBLE PARTY IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL OR STATE ASSISTANCE, THEY ARE ADDITIONALLY SCREENED BY ARH FOR ELIGIBILITY INTO OUR INTERNAL SLIDING FEE SCHEDULE CHARITY PROGRAM FOR ADDITIONAL DISCOUNTS UP TO 100% OF GROSS CHARGES. IF THE PATIENT IS HELD RESPONSIBLE, ADDITIONAL EFFORTS TO ASSIST THE PATIENT ARE OFFERED BY OFFERING REASONABLE PAYMENT PLANS AND DEFERRED PAYMENTS. IN THE EVENT THE PATIENT/GUARANTOR DOES NOT MAKE A REASONABLE EFFORT TO COMPLETE NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION TO APPLY OR BECOME ELIGIBLE FOR A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, THEY ARE THEN STILL GIVEN THE INITIAL 40% DISCOUNT AND MOVED THROUGH THE NORMAL COLLECTION PROCESS.
PART VI, LINE 4: PRIMARY COUNTIES IN KENTUCKY SERVED BY APPALACHIAN REGIONAL HEALTHCARE (THOSE WITH FACILITIES IN-COUNTY) INCLUDE BELL, FLOYD, HARLAN, JOHNSON, KNOX, LESLIE, LETCHER, MORGAN, PERRY, PIKE. SECONDARY KENTUCKY COUNTIES INCLUDE BREATHITT, CLAY, KNOTT, LAWRENCE, LEE, MAGOFFIN, MARTIN, OWSLEY, AND WOLFE. PRIMARY COUNTIES IN WEST VIRGINIA SERVED BY APPALACHIAN REGIONAL HEALTHCARE INCLUDE RALEIGH AND SUMMERS, WITH SECONDARY COUNTIES OF BOONE, FAYETTE, AND GREENBRIER, MINGO, AND WYOMING. THIS SERVICE AREA LIES WITHIN THE PORTION OF THE APPALACHIAN REGIONAL COMMISSION (ARC) DESIGNATED APPALACHIAN REGION, INCLUDING MANY OF THE STEEP, FORESTED RIDGES AND NARROW VALLEYS TYPICAL OF THE APPALACHIAN MOUNTAINS IN EASTERN KENTUCKY AND SOUTHERN WEST VIRGINIA. FOR EXAMPLE, IN LETCHER COUNTY, KENTUCKY, THE LANDSCAPE IS DEFINED BY RUGGED MOUNTAINS AND DENSE FOREST, WITH THE 125-MILE RIDGELINE OF PINE MOUNTAIN RUNNING ACROSS THE COUNTY. IN HARLAN COUNTY, KENTUCKY, ANOTHER COUNTY IN THE REGION, THE HEADWATERS OF THE CUMBERLAND RIVER FLOW THROUGH VALLEYS CARVED BETWEEN HIGH RIDGES. HARLAN COUNTY CONTAINS KENTUCKY'S HIGHEST POINT, BLACK MOUNTAIN (4,145 FT), REFLECTING THE ELEVATION EXTREMES. RURAL RESIDENTS OFTEN FACE LONG TRAVEL DISTANCES TO REACH MEDICAL FACILITIES, COMPOUNDED BY LIMITED OR UNRELIABLE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, AND LOW VEHICLE OWNERSHIP IN SOME HOUSEHOLDS.GIVEN THE RURAL AND MOUNTAINOUS CONTEXT, MANY COMMUNITIES ARE SMALL, SCATTERED, AND ISOLATED. THAT TENDS TO YIELD LIMITED LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURE; FEWER LARGE EMPLOYERS, FEWER AND SMALLER TOWNS, AND FEWER SERVICES, WHICH ALSO AFFECTS ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL SERVICES, ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, AND COMMUNITY RESOURCES.THE COUNTIES SERVED, MANY OF THEM COALFIELD AND FORMER COAL-MINING COUNTIES, HAVE LONG FACED ECONOMIC DISLOCATION AS TRADITIONAL INDUSTRIES (LIKE COAL) HAVE FADED. THAT LEGACY AFFECTS INCOME, EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES, AND ECONOMIC STABILITY IN THE REGION. THIS IS COMMON ACROSS MUCH OF THE EASTERN KENTUCKY COALFIELD AREA. MOREOVER, COMPARED WITH NON-APPALACHIAN REGIONS, PEOPLE IN APPALACHIA TEND TO HAVE LOWER LEVELS OF EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT AND HIGHER RATES OF POVERTY, FACTORS THAT CORRELATE WITH POORER HEALTH OUTCOMES.THE TOTAL POPULATION OF ARH'S PRIMARY AND SECONDARY MARKETS IS 503,677, WITH INDIVIDUALS AGE 65 AND OLDER REPRESENTING 22% OF THE POPULATION. NOTABLY, THIS AGE GROUP IS THE ONLY DEMOGRAPHIC EXPECTED TO GROW IN SIZE. THE REGION'S POPULATION IS PREDOMINANTLY CAUCASIAN (92%), WITH AN AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD INCOME OF $63,741. APPROXIMATELY 15% OF RESIDENTS HOLD A BACHELOR'S DEGREE OR HIGHER, WHILE 27% OF HOUSEHOLDS LIVE BELOW THE POVERTY LINE.
PART VI, LINE 5: ARH HOSPITALS FURTHER THEIR TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSE THROUGH EXPANDING ACCESS TO CARE, COMMUNITY-BASED HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ACTIVITIES AND SOCIAL DETERMINANT OF HEALTH INTERVENTIONS. IN FY25, ARH INVESTED OVER 5.2 MILLION DOLLARS IN COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING FREE COMMUNITY-BASED CLINICAL SCREENINGS (NEARLY 4,000 PROVIDED), FOOD IS MEDICINE INITIATIVES (I.E.
