LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - SCHUYLKILL	PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA), LVHN DEFINES THE COMMUNITY IT SERVES AS ALL INDIVIDUALS LIVING WITHIN THE COUNTIES THAT CONTAIN OUR HOSPITAL CAMPUSES. LVHN IS REQUIRED TO PRODUCE A CHNA FOR EACH OF OUR LICENSED FACILITIES TO ADDRESS THE LOCAL CONTEXT OF THE DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. THEREFORE, LVHN HAS PRODUCED SEVEN CHNAS FOR OUR LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL (LVH) CAMPUSES (SEE BELOW).HOSPITAL LOCATIONS UNDER LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - SCHUYLKILL (LVH-S) LICENSURE INCLUDE:- LVH-SCHUYLKILL PRIMARY SERVING SCHUYLKILL COUNTY, PA.OTHER HOSPITALS UNDER SEPARATE LICENSURE ARE:- LVH-CEDAR CREST, LVH-17TH STREET, LVH-1503 NORTH CEDAR CREST, AND LVHN-TILGHMAN PRIMARILY SERVING LEHIGH COUNTY, PA.- LVH-HECKTOWN OAKS, LVH-MUHLENBERG, AND LVH-HIGHLAND AVENUE PRIMARILY SERVING NORTHAMPTON COUNTY, PA.- LVH-HAZLETON PRIMARILY SERVING LUZERNE COUNTY, PA.- LVH-CARBON PRIMARILY SERVING CARBON COUNTY, PA.- LVH-POCONO PRIMARILY SERVING MONROE COUNTY, PA.- LVH-DICKSON CITY PRIMARILY SERVING LACKAWANNA COUNTY, PA.WITHIN THE ENTIRE GEOGRAPHIC POPULATION THAT MAKES UP THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE, WE PLACE GREATER EMPHASIS ON INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY WHO ARE EXPERIENCING HEALTH DISPARITIES TO A GREATER EXTENT OR WHO ARE AT-RISK FOR NEGATIVE HEALTH OUTCOMES BECAUSE OF THE SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLUENCING THEIR HEALTH. THE REPORTS PRESENT A HANDFUL OF KEY DATA POINTS FOR EACH COUNTY; HOWEVER, IN ADDITION, WE HAVE DEVELOPED AN INTERACTIVE DASHBOARD THAT PRESENTS A BROADER DEPTH OF HEALTH INFORMATION ABOUT EACH COUNTY AS WELL AS THE URBAN CENTER IN EACH COUNTY.LVHN'S 2022 CHNA IMPLEMENTATION PLAN USED A PRIORITIZATION PROCESS RESULTING IN TWO PRIMARY INITIATIVES FOR EACH COUNTY. TO SELECT MEANINGFUL AND ACTIONABLE PRIORITIES, EACH CAMPUS CONSIDERED THREE FACTORS: MAGNITUDE/IMPACT, CAPACITY, AND ALIGNMENT. THE MAGNITUDE/IMPACT COMPONENT OF THE PRIORITY SETTING CONSIDERED THE SCALE OF PRESSING NEEDS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE CAPACITY COMPONENT CONSIDERED LVHN'S ABILITY TO TAKE ON INITIATIVES IN DIFFERENT AREAS AS WELL AS THE POTENTIAL NEED TO PARTNER WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.

THE STATEMENTS INCLUDE INFORMATION ABOUT THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, SOLICITING THE PATIENT'S PARTICIPATION IN THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM.
PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11 (CONTINUATION A)	PRIORITY AREA: ACCESS TO PRIMARY AND PREVENTIVE CARE IN RURAL AREAS THE MOST FREQUENT BARRIER TO HEALTH MENTIONED BY COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND LEADERS DURING THE SCHUYLKILL COUNTY 2022 CHNA PROCESS WAS THE LACK OF CONSISTENT ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE SERVICES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY. PARTICIPANTS CALLED FOR A GREATER PRESENCE OF HEALTHCARE SERVICES IN THE COMMUNITY, INCLUDING THROUGH SATELLITE SITES, MOBILE UNITS, POP-UP CLINICS, AND IN-SCHOOL SERVICES. IN ADDITION, PREVENTIVE SCREENINGS AND SERVICES SHOULD BE OFFERED MORE WIDELY, PARTICULARLY IN LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES AND COMMUNITIES OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTY SEAT. PARTICIPANTS WOULD LIKE TO SEE AN INCREASE IN SERVICES LIKE SUPPORT GROUPS AND LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES. THEY WERE CONCERNED ABOUT A LACK OF EQUITY IN AND ACCESSIBILITY OF CARE AND THE LACK OF COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICES IN RURAL REGIONS. TO ADDRESS THE CONCERNS RAISED DURING THE 2022 CHNA PROCESS, LVH-SCHUYLKILL COMPLETED THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES.IN FY231. LVPG PROVIDERS AND STAFF ATTENDED FAMILY AND CHILD-FOCUSED EVENTS, TO INFORM THE COMMUNITY ABOUT THE ROLE OF FAMILY MEDICINE, AND THEIR ABILITY TO CARE FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS. 2. LVPG-SCHUYLKILL OPENED A PRACTICE LOCATION IN ORWIGSBURG IN THE FALL OF 2022 WHICH INCLUDED OBSTETRICS. 3. THE HOMETOWN PRACTICE EXPANDED OBSTETRICS ACCESS BY ADDING TWO OB/GYN PHYSICIANS.4. A NEW PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN, WHO IS FROM SCHUYLKILL COUNTY, WAS HIRED IN FRACKVILLE, AND A PHYSICIAN WAS ALSO HIRED AT PINE GROVE.

LVH-SCHUYLKILL PLAYS A SUPPORT AND ADVISORY ROLE TO THE MINERSVILLE VOLUNTEERS IN MEDICINE CLINIC, INCLUDING THE DONATION OF MEDICAL SUPPLIES. 7. IN APRIL, LVH-SCHUYLKILL LAUNCHED A VIRTUAL HUB TO PROVIDE GREATER ACCESS TO VIRTUAL APPOINTMENTS FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT CLOSE TO ONE OF LVHN'S PHYSICAL LOCATIONS. THIS SERVICE PROVIDES A LOCAL SITE FOR VIRTUAL APPOINTMENTS WITH PROVIDERS WHO MAY BE IN THE LEHIGH VALLEY.IN FY241. LVH-S SPONSORED A COMMUNITY HEALTH SYMPOSIUM IN SEPTEMBER 2023. NINETY-FIVE PEOPLE FROM 35 AGENCIES AND 10 SECTORS ATTENDED TO IDENTIFY WAYS THE COMMUNITY CAN WORK TOGETHER TO BEST MEET THE NEEDS OF RESIDENTS. TOPICS OF FOCUS INCLUDED HOUSING AND FOOD INSECURITY, USE OF LOCAL DATA, WELL-BEING AND MENTAL HEALTH, AND CRADLE-TO-CAREER EDUCATION. 2. TO FURTHER EFFORTS RELATED TO DISEASE PREVENTION, LVH-SCHUYLKILL PARTNERED WITH SCHUYLKILL COMMUNITY ACTION TO ENABLE COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER TEAMS TO GO INTO HOMES OF PATIENTS WITH ASTHMA AND CARDIOPULMONARY DISEASE (COPD) AND REFER THEM FOR HOME REMEDIATION. IN FY24, COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS SUCCESSFULLY REACHED OUT TO OVER 500 PATIENTS TO SCREEN FOR POTENTIALLY POORLY CONTROLLED COPD OR ASTHMA. TWENTY PERCENT OF PATIENTS REACHED CHOSE TO ENROLL IN THE PROGRAM. OF THOSE PATIENTS ENROLLED IN THE PROGRAM, 71% OF THE PATIENTS ENROLLED FOR ASTHMA WERE REFERRED TO SCHUYLKILL COMMUNITY ACTION (SCA) FOR SERVICES AND 89% ENROLLED FOR COPD WERE REFERRED TO SCA FOR SERVICES. SCA ACCEPTED 40% OF THE REFERRED ASTHMA PATIENTS FOR SERVICES (EITHER SUPPLIES OR REMEDIATION PLUS SUPPLIES) AND 12% OF THE REFERRED COPD PATIENTS; HOWEVER, MANY REFERRED COPD PATIENTS WERE PLACED ON A WAITLIST DUE TO VOLUME OF REFERRALS. IN THE ASTHMA POPULATION, WE DID NOT SEE A SIGNIFICANT OVERALL CHANGE IN THE PRE/POST ASTHMA CONTROL TEST (ACT) SCORES. THE AVERAGE ACT SCORE AT TIME OF ENROLLMENT WAS 13.2 AND POST-PROGRAM COMPLETION THE AVERAGE SCORE WAS 14.2, INDICATING A MODEST IMPROVEMENT. HOWEVER, 39% OF ENROLLED PATIENTS DID SHOW AN IMPROVEMENT IN ACT SCORES, WHILE 32% OF PATIENT SCORES REMAINED THE SAME.3. A NEW FAMILY MEDICINE CLINIC OPENED IN PINE GROVE IN FEBRUARY 2024, ALLOWING FOR THE ADDITION OF ANOTHER ADVANCED CLINICIAN, INCREASING ACCESS TO PRIMARY CARE. 4. IN FEBRUARY 2024, A $1 MILLION+ INVESTMENT WAS MADE IN A NEW BUILDING FOR THE LVPG (LEHIGH VALLEY PHYSICIAN GROUP) FAMILY MEDICINE OFFICE IN PINE GROVE, DEMONSTRATING LVH-SCHUYLKILL'S COMMITMENT TO ENSURING GOOD ACCESS IN A RURAL COMMUNITY.

COMPLIMENTARY PRESSURE CHECKS WERE PROVIDED. ALL WHO ATTENDED THE HEALTH FAIR ALSO HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WITH FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENTS AND CLINICIANS. 6. FRACKVILLE AND SCHUYLKILL FAMILY MEDICINE SITES HAVE IMPROVED ACCESS THROUGH THE USE OF ACCESS AND CLINICAL CARE COORDINATORS WHO FOLLOW UP ON ORDERS AND ANNUAL EXAMS. IT IS NOW EASIER FOR PATIENTS TO ACCESS CARE FROM THE NEW PROVIDERS WHO WERE HIRED IN FY23. 7. A NEW FAMILY MEDICINE AND INTERNAL MEDICINE PHYSICIAN, WHO ALSO HAS SUBSTANCE ABUSE EXPERIENCE, STARTED AT THE ORWIGSBURG INTERNAL MEDICINE PRACTICE IN DECEMBER 2023. THIS MARKS THE FIRST TIME THAT LVH-S HAS A CLINICIAN WITH SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND CARE PROCESS EXPERTISE IN THIS OFFICE. A NEW NURSE PRACTITIONER ALSO STARTED IN ORWIGSBURG.8.

A NEW NEUROLOGIST WAS HIRED AND OFFERS VIRTUAL APPOINTMENTS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO CARE. A MAJOR INITIATIVE FOR SCHUYLKILL COUNTY INVOLVES THE WALTER AND IRENE BARAN SCHUYLKILL FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENCY PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM WAS INITIATED TO HELP ADDRESS PHYSICIAN SHORTAGE IN SCHUYLKILL COUNTY AND TO ADDRESS HEALTH CARE DISPARITIES IN RURAL AREAS. THE PROGRAM IS A FULL-SPECTRUM, THREE-YEAR FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENCY, WHERE RESIDENTS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BOTH LIVE AND WORK IN A RURAL (BUT NOT REMOTE) COMMUNITY, TRAINING ONE-ON-ONE WITH COMMUNITY PHYSICIANS AND GAINING EXPERIENCE AS PHYSICIAN LEADERS. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT SETS IT APART FROM OTHER RESIDENCY PROGRAMS IS THE LEVEL OF INVOLVEMENT BY THE SCHUYLKILL COMMUNITY. THE CLINICAL EXPERIENCE EMPHASIZES CONTINUITY OUTPATIENT PRIMARY CARE, EMERGENCY CARE, INPATIENT MEDICINE, AND OBSTETRICAL/MATERNITY CARE. RESIDENTS ALSO ASSIST PATIENTS WITH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CONCERNS AND OPIOID USE DISORDER. IN FY23, THE PROGRAM RECEIVED 500 APPLICATIONS AND CONDUCTED 78 INTERVIEWS FOR FOUR POSITIONS.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
PART I, LINE 6A:	THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT IS ISSUED BY LEHIGH VALLEY HEALTH NETWORK, EIN #22-2458317, THE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER OF LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL - SCHUYLKILL.
PART I, LINE 7:	THE COSTING METHODOLOGY IS COST TO CHARGE RATIO FOR PROGRAMS WITH GROSS CHARGES AND DIRECT COSTS FOR PROGRAMS WITHOUT GROSS CHARGES.
PART I, LINE 7G:	THERE ARE NO PHYSICIAN CLINICAL SERVICES INCLUDED.
PART I, LN 7 COL(F):	THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25(B) IS $13,177,599.
PART III, LINE 2:	PATIENT ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF AS BAD DEBT ARE IDENTIFIED. THE COST TO PROVIDE CARE TO THESE PATIENTS IS CALCULATED BY MULTIPLYING THE TOTAL CHARGES WRITTEN OFF AS BAD DEBT BY THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO.
PART III, LINE 3:	THIS AMOUNT IS THE COST TO PROVIDE CARE TO UNINSURED PATIENTS THAT DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE PROCESS TO DETERMINE IF THEY ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE COST IS DETERMINED USING COST TO CHARGE RATIOS. THE RATIONALE FOR INCLUDING THE COST TO PROVIDE CARE TO UNINSURED PATIENTS THAT DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROCESS IS THE HOSPITAL'S EXPERIENCE WITH UNINSURED PATIENTS THAT DO PARTICIPATE IN THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. WHEN THE HOSPITAL EVALUATES UNINSURED PATIENTS FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, THE MOST COMMON FINDING IS THAT UNINSURED PATIENTS HAVE INCOME LESS THAN 400% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINE AND QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE HOSPITAL BELIEVES THAT UNINSURED PEOPLE WHO CHOOSE NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROCESS AND HAVE THEIR ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF AS BAD DEBT, HAVE INCOME THAT WOULD QUALIFY FOR THE HOSPITAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM.
PART III, LINE 4:	THE ORGANIZATION ESTIMATES AN IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSION RELATED TO UNINSURED ACCOUNTS, NET OF THE AGB (AMOUNTS GENERALLY BILLED) DISCOUNT, TO RECORD THE NET SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AT THE ESTIMATED AMOUNTS THE ORGANIZATION EXPECTS TO COLLECT. COINSURANCES AND DEDUCTIBLES WITHIN THE THIRD-PARTY PAYER AGREEMENTS ARE THE PATIENT'S RESPONSIBILITY SO THE ORGANIZATION INCLUDES THESE AMOUNTS IN THE SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND CONSIDERS THESE AMOUNTS IN ITS DETERMINATION OF THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE DEBTS BASED ON HISTORICAL COLLECTION EXPERIENCE. FOR THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025, AND 2024, RESPECTIVELY, LVH-SCHUYLKILL RECORDED A PROVISION FOR IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS OF $17,422,568 AND $13,972,886 AS A DIRECT REDUCTION TO PATIENT SERVICES REVENUES.IN INSTANCES WHERE THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES A PATIENT HAS THE ABILITY TO PAY FOR SERVICES AND, AFTER APPROPRIATE COLLECTION EFFORTS, PAYMENT IS NOT MADE, THE UNPAID PORTION OF THE ACCOUNT BALANCE IS WRITTEN-OFF TO THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. AMOUNTS RECORDED AS PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS DO NOT INCLUDE CHARITY CARE.
PART III, LINE 8:	THE SOURCE OF THE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS RELATING TO REVENUE RECEIVED FROM MEDICARE IS THE FY2025 MEDICARE COST REPORT. THE ENTIRE SHORTFALL ON LINE 7 SHOULD BE TREATED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THE REVENUE AND EXPENSES ARE BOTH DETERMINED USING MEDICARE PRINCIPLES.
PART III, LINE 9B:	FINANCIAL COUNSELING STAFF WILL DETERMINE WHETHER PATIENTS MEET ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. ACCOUNTS THAT DO NOT MEET THE ELIGIBLILTY REQUIREMENTS WILL BE REFERRED TO AN EXTERNAL RECEIVABLES FOLLOW UP AGENCY, AND IF NOT PAID, REFERRED TO A COLLECTION AGENCY AND SUBSEQUENTLY TRANSFERRED TO BAD DEBT STATUS IF THE ACCOUNTS REMAIN UNPAID.
PART VI, LINE 2:	AS PART OF THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, STARTING IN 2013, ALL NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS AND HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS ARE REQUIRED TO CONDUCT A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) EVERY THREE YEARS. THE CHNA REPORT EXAMINES THE FACTORS THAT IMPACT THE HEALTH AND WELLNESS OF ALL PEOPLE IN A PARTICULAR GEOGRAPHIC AREA. BEYOND ITS REGULATORY FUNCTION, THE CHNA IS AN IMPORTANT OVERVIEW OF THE CURRENT STATE OF HEALTH IN OUR REGION AND IDENTIFIES POTENTIAL AREAS OF CONCERN WHICH INFORMS LEHIGH VALLEY HEALTH NETWORK'S (LVHN) POPULATION HEALTH MANAGEMENT EFFORTS.WITHIN THE COMMUNITIES LVHN SERVES, THE CHNA REPORTS PLACE A GREATER EMPHASIS ON INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING HEALTH DISPARITIES OR WHO ARE AT RISK FOR NEGATIVE HEALTH OUTCOMES BECAUSE OF SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLUENCING THEIR HEALTH. IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF THE MOST VULNERABLE MEMBERS OF A COMMUNITY HAS BEEN SHOWN TO IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR ALL IN THE COMMUNITY. ACCESS TO QUALITY HEALTH CARE IS ONLY ONE OF THE FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE HEALTH OF A POPULATION. OTHER FACTORS SUCH AS HEALTH BEHAVIORS, THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT, AND SOCIOECONOMIC FACTORS ARE MORE POWERFUL PREDICTORS OF HEALTH, ILLNESS, AND HEALTH CARE UTILIZATION OVER TIME. FOR THIS REASON, THE SOCIAL DRIVERS OF HEALTH ARE A FOCUS IN THIS NEEDS ASSESSMENT REPORT, AND LVHN HAS ADOPTED THE WELL-BEING PORTFOLIO AS THE FRAMEWORK FOR OUR COMMUNITY HEALTH STRATEGY. THIS HOLISTIC FRAMEWORK INCORPORATES BOTH SERVICES THAT ADDRESS URGENT NEEDS (SUCH AS ACUTE CARE FOR ILLNESS OR INJURY AND ASSISTANCE WITH MEETING BASIC NEEDS FOR FOOD AND SHELTER) AND LONG-TERM INVESTMENT IN ASSURING THAT ALL PEOPLE HAVE WHAT THEY NEED TO THRIVE. ALONG THESE LINES, THE WELL-BEING PORTFOLIO OUTLINES SEVEN VITAL CONDITIONS FOR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING: BASIC NEEDS FOR HEALTH AND SAFETY, LIFELONG LEARNING, MEANINGFUL WORK AND WEALTH, HUMANE HOUSING, A THRIVING NATURAL WORLD, RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION, AND BELONGING AND CIVIC MUSCLE. AS WE HAVE ASSESSED THE HEALTH NEEDS OF PEOPLE IN THE COUNTY, WE HAVE BEEN SURE TO CONSIDER THE ROLE OF HEALTH CARE IN ADDRESSING BOTH URGENT NEEDS AND THE BROADER VITAL CONDITIONS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE HEALTH OF INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES IN THE REGION.THIS INTRODUCTION PROVIDES AN OVERVIEW OF LVHN'S 2025 CHNA PROCESS. THE 2025 CHNA COMBINES DATA AND INFORMATION FROM LOCAL, STATE, AND NATIONAL SOURCES ABOUT DISEASE, THE ENVIRONMENT, SOCIAL FACTORS, AND INDIVIDUAL BEHAVIORS, WITH IDEAS, STORIES, AND EXPERIENCES FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND LEADERS FROM THROUGHOUT THE COUNTIES SERVED BY LVHN. THE SECOND COMPONENT OF THE LVHN'S CHNA IS THE COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION PLAN (CHIP), WHICH OUTLINES OUR PLAN TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE CHNA OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEXT THREE YEARS. THE 2025 CHNA REPORTS AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, AS WELL AS ALL PAST CHNA REPORTS, ARE PROVIDED AT WWW.LVHN.ORG/CHNA.THE 2025 LVHN CHNA IS BROKEN OUT INTO THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS: DEMOGRAPHICS, SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC FACTORS, HEALTH BEHAVIORS, HEALTH OUTCOMES. THE READER WILL FIND CALL-OUT BOXES THROUGHOUT THE CHNA REPORTS THAT PROVIDE THEMES FROM KEY STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS AND COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS. THESE REPORTS HAVE BEEN REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY RELATIONS COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD. THE CHIP WAS ALSO REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE VARIOUS HOSPITAL CAMPUS BOARDS AND THE LEHIGH VALLEY HOSPITAL BOARD OF TRUSTEES.NOTE: IN THE PROCESS OF DEVELOPING THE 2025 CHNA AND CORRESPONDING IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, LVHN MERGED WITH JEFFERSON HEALTH. THIS WILL BE THE FINAL LVHN COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. GOING FORWARD, PLANS WILL FEATURE THE LEHIGH VALLEY REGION OF JEFFERSON HEALTH.
PART VI, LINE 3:	EACH PATIENT IS REGISTERED INTO THE HOSPITAL COMPUTER SYSTEM WHEN THEY ARRIVE FOR SERVICES. AS PART OF THE REGISTRATION, INFORMATION IS OBTAINED ON ANY HEALTH INSURANCE THEY HAVE. INDIVIDUALS WITHOUT HEALTH INSURANCE ARE INFORMED AT THAT TIME OF THE MEDICAL CENTER'S CHARITY CARE POLICY. PATIENTS ARE GIVEN INFORMATION ON CONTACTING STAFF WITHIN THE HOSPITAL PATIENT ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT TO DISCUSS APPLYING FOR THE HOSPITAL CHARITY CARE PROGRAM. SPECIFIC STAFF HAVE BEEN TRAINED AND ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ADMINISTERING THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM FOR THE HOSPITAL. HOSPITAL STAFF CONTACT PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE AND EXPLAIN THE POLICY AND THE INFORMATION NEEDED TO APPLY. HOSPITAL STAFF WILL ALSO ASSIST PATIENTS IN APPLYING FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE. THEY WILL ALSO ASSIST PATIENTS IN COMPLETING THE APPLICATION AND GATHERING THE NECESSARY FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS.THE HOSPITAL ALSO POSTS INFORMATION WITHIN THE ADMISSION AND EMERGENCY ROOM AREAS INFORMING PATIENTS THAT THERE IS A CHARITY CARE POLICY AVAILABLE. ALL REGISTRATION PERSONNEL ARE TRAINED ON THE POLICY SO THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO INFORM PATIENTS WHEN THEY ARE REGISTERED.OTHER HOSPITAL STAFF MEMBERS THAT MAY COME IN CONTACT WITH PATIENTS ARE ALSO EDUCATED REGARDING THE CHARITY CARE POLICY. THIS WOULD INCLUDE SOCIAL WORKERS, CARE MANAGERS, NURSING STAFF, AND ALL DEPARTMENT DIRECTORS. THE CHARITY CARE POLICY IS AVAILABLE ON THE HOSPITAL INTRANET WHICH IS ACCESSIBLE BY ALL EMPLOYEES. THE HOSPITAL IS ALSO IN THE PROCESS OF PLACING THE POLICY ON THE HOSPITAL WEBSITE.ALL PATIENT ACCOUNTING, CASHIERING, AND COLLECTION STAFF ARE ALSO EDUCATED ON THE CHARITY CARE POLICY AND CAN ASSIST PATIENTS IN APPLYING FOR CHARITY CARE. ALSO ALL THIRD PARTY ORGANIZATIONS THAT WORK ON BEHALF OF THE MEDICAL CENTER IN PERFORMING COLLECTIONS HAVE BEEN EDUCATED ON THE CHARITY CARE POLICY AND CAN ADVISE PATIENTS ON APPLYING FOR THIS BENEFIT.
