THE CHNA IS A SYSTEMATIC PROCESS INVOLVING THE COMMUNITY TO IDENTIFY AND ANALYZE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AS WELL AS COMMUNITY ASSETS AND RESOURCES IN ORDER TO PLAN AND ACT UPON PRIORITY COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. THIS ASSESSMENT PROCESS RESULTED IN A CHNA REPORT TO ASSIST THE HOSPITAL IN PLANNING, IMPLEMENTING, AND EVALUATING HOSPITAL STRATEGIES AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITIES. THE CHNA WAS DEVELOPED AND CONDUCTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE COMMUNITY, BY A CONSULTANT PROVIDED THROUGH THE ILLINOIS CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITAL NETWORK (ICAHN). ICAHN IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT 501(C)(3) CORPORATION, ESTABLISHED IN 2003 FOR THE PURPOSES OF SHARING RESOURCES, EDUCATION, PROMOTING OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCIES AND IMPROVING HEALTHCARE SERVICES FOR MEMBER CRITICAL ACCESS HOSPITALS AND THEIR RURAL COMMUNITIES. THE PROCESS INVOLVED THE REVIEW OF SEVERAL HUNDRED PAGES OF DEMOGRAPHIC AND HEALTH DATA SPECIFIC TO THE MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL SERVICE AREA. THE SECONDARY DATA AND PREVIOUS HEALTH PLANNING CONCLUSIONS DRAW ATTENTION TO SEVERAL COMMON ISSUES OF RURAL DEMOGRAPHICS AND ECONOMIES. IN ADDITION, THE PROCESS INVOLVED FOCUS GROUPS COMPRISED OF AREA HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, PARTNERS, AND PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL, INCLUDING THOSE WITH SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE OF, OR EXPERTISE IN PUBLIC HEALTH. MEMBERS OF MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, LOW-INCOME, AND MINORITY POPULATIONS SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL OR INDIVIDUALS OR ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTING THE INTERESTS OF SUCH POPULATIONS ALSO PROVIDED INPUT. THE MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED ARE MEMBERS OF A POPULATION WHO EXPERIENCE HEALTH DISPARITIES, ARE AT-RISK OF NOT RECEIVING ADEQUATE MEDICAL CARE AS A RESULT OF BEING UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED, AND/OR EXPERIENCING BARRIERS TO HEALTHCARE DUE TO GEOGRAPHIC, LANGUAGE, FINANCIAL, OR OTHER CHALLENGES. TWO FOCUS GROUPS MET SEPARATELY ON OCTOBER 14, 2021, AND OCTOBER 15, 2021, TO DISCUSS THE OVERALL STATE OF HEALTH AND THE LOCAL DELIVERY OF HEALTHCARE AND HEALTH-RELATED SERVICES. THEY IDENTIFIED POSITIVE RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN LOCAL SERVICES AND CARE AND ALSO IDENTIFIED ISSUES OR CONCERNS THAT THEY FELT STILL EXISTED IN THE AREA. A THIRD GROUP COMPRISED OF MEMBERS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF MEMBERS OF THE FOCUS GROUPS THEN MET ON MARCH 7, 2022, AND CONSIDERED THE QUALITATIVE DATA GATHERED AND ESTIMATED FEASIBILITY AND EFFECTIVENESS OF POSSIBLE INTERVENTIONS BY THE HOSPITAL TO IMPACT THE HEALTH PRIORITIES; THE BURDEN, SCOPE, SEVERITY, OR URGENCY OF THE HEALTH NEED; THE HEALTH DISPARITIES ASSOCIATED WITH THE HEALTH NEEDS; AND OTHER COMMUNITY ASSETS AND RESOURCES THAT COULD BE LEVERAGED THROUGH STRATEGIC COLLABORATION IN THE HOSPITAL'S SERVICE AREA TO ADDRESS THE HEALTH NEEDS. AS AN OUTCOME OF THE PRIORITIZATION PROCESS, DISCUSSED ABOVE, SEVERAL POTENTIAL HEALTH NEEDS OR ISSUES FLOWING FROM THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DATA WERE NOT IDENTIFIED AS SIGNIFICANT CURRENT HEALTH NEEDS AND WERE NOT ADVANCED FOR FUTURE CONSIDERATION. FIVE NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED AS SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS AND PRIORITIZED: (1) ISSUES SURROUNDING MENTAL HEALTH, INCLUDING A) INCREASE ACCESS AND IMPROVE TRANSPORTATION FOR LONG-TERM MENTAL HEALTHCARE OUTSIDE THE COMMUNITY, INCLUDING CARE FOR SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS, B) IMPROVE COMMUNITY EDUCATION ABOUT RISKY BEHAVIOR AMONG YOUTH, C) INCREASE EDUCATION AND TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES ON YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH FOR SCHOOL FACULTY AND STAFF; (2) BEGIN TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES SURROUNDING YOUTH LIVING IN POVERTY; (3) STAFF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION NEEDS TO BE AT A SUFFICIENT LEVEL TO FULLY MEET NEEDS FOR BROADER GENERAL SERVICES AND FLEXIBILITY TO ADDRESS ACCESS TO HEALTH-RELATED APPOINTMENTS AND SERVICES; (4) TELEHEALTH ACCESS FOR YOUTH IN SCHOOLS FOR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH; (5) ADDRESS THE TEEN BIRTH RATE; (6) BETTER ACCESS TO SERVICES FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES.

THE GROUP REVIEWED THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROCESS AND CONSIDERED THE PRIORITIZED SIGNIFICANT NEEDS AND SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS. THEY DISCUSSED STEPS TAKEN TO ADDRESS THE PREVIOUS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THEY ALSO CONSIDERED INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL RESOURCES POTENTIALLY AVAILABLE TO ADDRESS THE CURRENT PRIORITIZED NEEDS. THE GROUP THEN CONSIDERED EACH OF THE PRIORITIZED NEEDS. FOR EACH OF THE SIX CATEGORIES, ACTIONS THE HOSPITAL INTENDS TO TAKE WERE IDENTIFIED ALONG WITH THE ANTICIPATED IMPACT OF THE ACTIONS, THE RESOURCES THE HOSPITAL INTENDS TO COMMIT TO THE ACTIONS, AND THE EXTERNAL COLLABORATORS THE HOSPITAL PLANS TO COOPERATE WITH TO ADDRESS THE NEED. THE PLAN WILL BE EVALUATED BY PERIODIC REVIEW OF MEASURABLE OUTCOME INDICATORS IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANNUAL REVIEW AND REPORTING. PROCESS BY WHICH NEEDS WILL BE ADDRESSED: 1. ISSUES SURROUNDING MENTAL HEALTH. MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL WILL COOPERATE WITH EMERGING EFFORTS OF CHRISTOPHER RURAL HEALTH CLINIC AND THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT ON NEW BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROBLEMS; EXPLORE COOPERATIVE TRANSPORT PROGRAMS WITH SOUTH CENTRAL TRANSIT; COLLABORATE WITH AREA HOSPITALS TO DEVELOP FUNDING FOR DISTANT TRANSFER FOR INPATIENT MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT; EXPLORE EXPANDING COMMUNITY EDUCATION PROGRAMS TO LOCATIONS AWAY FROM THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO INCREASE ACCESS AND ATTENDANCE; EXPLORE DEVELOPING LOCAL MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID TRAINERS AND OTHER RESOURCES FOR SCHOOL STAFF, PARENTS, AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS.2. BEGIN TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES SURROUNDING YOUTH LIVING IN POVERTY. MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL WILL SUPPORT THE SCHOOL SYSTEM'S EFFORTS TO CREATE LOCAL CAREER OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULTS. THE HOSPITAL WILL RE-ENGAGE AND BROADEN ITS WORK SHADOWING PROGRAM.3. STAFF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION NEEDS TO BE AT A SUFFICIENT LEVEL TO FULLY MEET NEEDS FOR BROADER GENERAL SERVICES AND FLEXIBILITY TO ADDRESS ACCESS TO HEALTH-RELATED APPOINTMENTS AND SERVICES. MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL WILL SUPPORT SOUTH CENTRAL TRANSIT IN ITS POST-PANDEMIC REBUILDING AS IS REASONABLE AND APPROPRIATE. MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL BELIEVES THAT THE SOLUTIONS TO MASS TRANSIT ISSUES MUST BE LED BY TRANSIT EXPERTS AND LEADERS. MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL ANTICIPATES THAT RECENTLY ANNOUNCED STEPS TO RESTORE AND EXPAND THE LOCAL TRANSIT PROGRAM WILL ADDRESS THE ISSUES RAISED HERE. 4. TELEHEALTH ACCESS FOR YOUTH IN SCHOOLS FOR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH. MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL WILL EXPLORE EXPANDING TELEHEALTH SERVICES TO PROVIDE REASONABLE AND APPROPRIATE ACCESS TO STAFF AND YOUTH IN SCHOOLS IN COLLABORATION WITH THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT. THE HOSPITAL ANTICIPATES THAT THIS COOPERATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN THE HOSPITAL, PUBLIC HEALTH, AND THE SCHOOLS COULD PROVIDE INCREASED ACCESS TO MENTAL AND PHYSICAL CARE FOR YOUTH. 5. ADDRESS THE TEEN BIRTH RATE. MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL WILL COLLABORATE WITH THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT TO INCREASE EDUCATION ON TOPICS RELEVANT TO THIS ISSUE TO THE COMMUNITY AND INTO SCHOOLS. THE HOSPITAL ANTICIPATES THAT INCREASING COMMUNICATION ON TOPICS RELATED TO TEEN BIRTHS WILL HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE BIRTH RATE. 6. BETTER ACCESS TO SERVICES FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES. MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL WILL EXPLORE COLLABORATION TO PROVIDE A LIAISON FOR SERVICES THAT PRESENT AT THE HOSPITAL. THE HOSPITAL WILL EXPLORE SUPPORT OF ANY REASONABLE AND APPROPRIATE COMMUNITY-BASED EFFORT TO CONVINCE THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES TO RESTORE LOCAL ACCESS TO THE DEPARTMENT IN THIS AREA, IF SUCH AN EFFORT IS INITIATED.

PART I, LINE 7: THE COSTING METHOD USED ON FORM 990 IS BASED ON A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WHICH IS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES LESS THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS APPLIED AGAINST VARIOUS REVENUE AND EXPENSE CATEGORIES TO COMPUTE THE ESTIMATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE UNDER IRS SUGGESTED COSTING METHODS FOR THE FORM 990. PART I, LINE 7G: SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES AT MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL INCLUDE THE OPERATION OF THE INPATIENT MEDICAL SURGICAL UNIT AND TWO RURAL HEALTH CLINICS. THE HOSPITAL AND CLINICS ARE OPERATED TO PROVIDE SUPPORT TO THE COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING HOSPITALIZATION, EMERGENCY, AND CLINICAL SERVICES TO THE SURROUNDING RURAL AREAS, WHICH WOULD OTHERWISE BE UNDERSERVED. IT IS THE GOAL OF MARSHALL BROWNING HOSPITAL TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY REGARDLESS OF A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY. THE COSTING METHOD FOR SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES IS BASED ON THE COSTING METHODS USED IN THE HOSPITAL'S MEDICARE COST REPORT WHICH PROVIDES FOR A DIRECT ALLOCATION OF EXPENSES AS WELL AS PROVIDING THE SAME DATA TO THE MEDICARE PROGRAM AS WELL AS TO THE IRS FOR 990 PURPOSES. PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F): THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $ 1,063,186. PART III, LINE 2: THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED ON FORM 990 IS BASED ON A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO, WHICH IS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE HOSPITAL'S TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES EXCLUDING THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT, DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS APPLIED AGAINST THE TOTAL CHARGES THAT ARE WRITTEN OFF DURING THE YEAR TO ESTIMATE THE COST OF CARE OF PATIENTS WHO HAVE ACCOUNTS THAT ARE DEEMED TO BE BAD DEBTS TO THE HOSPITAL. THE HOSPITAL ALSO RECOGNIZES THAT IT ALSO PROVIDES A DISCOUNT TO SELF-PAY OR UNINSURED PATIENTS. THESE AMOUNTS ARE EXCLUDED FROM GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RATIO AS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND APPROVED BY THE IRS FOR USE ON FORM 990. IF CONSIDERED, THESE ADDITIONAL WRITE-OFF AMOUNTS TO UNINSURED ACCOUNTS WOULD ALSO INCREASE THE ESTIMATED BAD DEBT EXPENSE AMOUNT ASSOCIATED WITH THESE UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS TO THE HOSPITAL. PART III, LINE 3: MANAGEMENT PROVIDES FOR PROBABLE UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS, PRIMARILY UNINSURED PATIENTS AND AMOUNTS PATIENTS ARE PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR, THROUGH A CHARGE TO OPERATIONS AND A CREDIT TO A VALUATION ALLOWANCE BASED ON ITS ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL COLLECTION LIKELIHOOD AND THE CURRENT STATUS OF INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS. BALANCES THAT ARE STILL OUTSTANDING AFTER THE HOSPITAL HAS USED REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS ARE WRITTEN OFF THROUGH A CHARGE TO THE VALUATION ALLOWANCE AND A CREDIT TO ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. PART III, LINE 4: ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND CREDIT POLICY:IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE ORGANIZATION ANALYZES PAST RESULTS AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS DATA ABOUT THESE MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. SPECIFICALLY, FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY PAYOR COVERAGE, THE ORGANIZATION ANALYZES CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS FOR EXPECTED UNCOLLECTIBLE DEDUCTIBLES AND COPAYMENTS ON ACCOUNTS FOR WHICH THE THIRD-PARTY PAYOR HAS NOT YET PAID, OR FOR PAYORS WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE HAVING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES THAT MAKE THE REALIZATION OF AMOUNTS DUE UNLIKELY. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS (WHICH INCLUDES BOTH PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE AND PATIENTS WITH DEDUCTIBLE AND COPAYMENT BALANCES DUE FOR WHICH THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE EXISTS FOR PART OF THE BILL), THE ORGANIZATION RECORDS A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IN THE PERIOD OF SERVICE ON THE BASIS OF ITS PAST EXPERIENCE, WHICH INDICATES THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE STANDARD RATES (OR THE DISCOUNTED RATES IF NEGOTIATED) AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT CONTAIN A SEPARATE FOOTNOTE REGARDING BAD DEBT EXPENSE. PART III, LINE 8: THE TOTAL MEDICARE REVENUE SHOWN IN SCHEDULE H TO THE FORM 990 IS BASED ON THE IRS 990 INSTRUCTIONS AND INCLUDES ONLY A PORTION OF THE GROSS MEDICARE REVENUE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND DOES NOT CONSIDER ALL CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS FOR SERVICES REIMBURSED BY THE MEDICARE PROGRAM.
