| SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5 | GEORGIA HEALTH POLICY CENTER (GHPC) PARTNERED WITH WELLSTAR TO IMPLEMENT A COLLABORATIVE AND COMPREHENSIVE CHNA PROCESS. GHPC, HOUSED WITHIN GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY'S ANDREW YOUNG SCHOOL OF POLICY STUDIES, PROVIDES EVIDENCE-BASED RESEARCH, PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT, AND POLICY GUIDANCE LOCALLY, STATEWIDE, AND NATIONALLY TO IMPROVE COMMUNITIES' HEALTH STATUS. WITH MORE THAN 25 YEARS OF SERVICE, GHPC FOCUSES ON SOLUTIONS TO THE TOUGHEST ISSUES FACING HEALTHCARE TODAY, INCLUDING INSURANCE COVERAGE, LONG-TERM CARE, CHILDREN'S HEALTH, AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF RURAL AND URBAN HEALTH SYSTEMS. GHPC HAS BEEN SUPPORTING HOSPITAL PARTNERS IN MEETING THE CHNA COMPONENTS OF IRS REGULATIONS SINCE THEIR INCEPTION IN 2010. INPUT FROM COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES & COMMUNITY SOURCES: THE SECONDARY DATA WAS COMPILED FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES THAT ARE RELIABLE AND REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED BY WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL HOSPITALS. DATA SOURCES INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: - COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS AND ROADMAPS - EMORY UNIVERSITY'S ROLLINS SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH'S AIDSVU - GEORGIA BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION - GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH'S ONLINE ANALYTICAL STATISTICAL INFORMATION SYSTEM (OASIS) - GEORGIA RURAL HEALTH INNOVATION CENTER'S GEORGIA HEALTH DATA HUB - HEALTH RESOURCES SERVICES ADMINISTRATION'S HEALTH PROFESSIONAL SHORTAGE AREAS DATABASE - KAISER PERMANENTE'S COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS DASHBOARD - TRUVEN HEALTH ANALYTICS' COMMUNITY NEEDS INDEX - U.S. CENSUS BUREAU'S AMERICAN COMMUNITY SURVEY SECONDARY DATA WERE ANALYZED AT THE ZIP CODE AND COUNTY LEVEL. MOST PUBLICLY AVAILABLE DATA ARE NOT AVAILABLE AT A SUB-COUNTY LEVEL. WHERE SMALLER DATA POINTS WERE AVAILABLE (I.E. FOR CENSUS TRACTS OR ZIP CODES), THEY WERE INCLUDED. TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE EXPERIENCE AND NEEDS OF RESIDENTS SERVED BY THE HOSPITALS, SEVERAL TYPES OF PRIMARY DATA WERE COLLECTED. PRIMARY DATA COLLECTION INCLUDED: QUALITATIVE DATA INCLUDED: 1. COVID-19 LOCAL IMPACT SURVEY - GHPC USED A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF LITERATURE PUBLISHED DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC TO CREATE A 20-QUESTION SURVEY TO BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW THE PANDEMIC INFLUENCED THE HEALTH OF COMMUNITIES SERVED BY WELLSTAR HEALTH SYSTEM. NEARLY 1,000 STAKEHOLDERS WERE INVITED TO COMPLETE THE SURVEY. OF THE 204 RESPONSES RECEIVED FOR THE HEALTH SYSTEM, 67 RESPONDENTS REPRESENTED BARTOW, CHEROKEE, COBB, DOUGLAS, AND PAULDING COUNTIES. 2. FOCUS GROUPS WITH RESIDENTS - GHPC RECRUITED AND CONDUCTED ONE FOCUS GROUP AMONG RESIDENTS LIVING IN THE COMMUNITY SERVED BY WELLSTAR COBB HOSPITAL, WELLSTAR KENNESTONE HOSPITAL, AND WELLSTAR WINDY HILL HOSPITAL. GHPC DESIGNED FACILITATION GUIDES FOR FOCUS GROUP DISCUSSIONS. RESIDENTS WERE RECRUITED USING A THIRD-PARTY RECRUITING FIRM. RECRUITMENT STRATEGIES FOCUSED ON RESIDENTS THAT HAD CHARACTERISTICS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE BROADER COMMUNITY, SPECIFICALLY AREAS THAT EXPERIENCE DISPARITIES AND LOW SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS. THE FOCUS GROUP LASTED APPROXIMATELY 1.5 HOURS, DURING WHICH TIME TRAINED FACILITATORS LED SIX TO 12 PARTICIPANTS THROUGH A DISCUSSION ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THEIR COMMUNITY, HEALTH NEEDS, RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO MEET HEALTH NEEDS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS TO ADDRESS COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. 3. ONE-ON-ONE INTERVIEWS WITH COMMUNITY LEADERS - LEADERS ASKED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE INTERVIEW PROCESS ENCOMPASSED A WIDE VARIETY OF PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUNDS INCLUDING (1) PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTISE, (2) PROFESSIONALS WITH ACCESS TO COMMUNITY HEALTH-RELATED DATA AND (3) REPRESENTATIVES OF UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS. THE INTERVIEWS OFFERED COMMUNITY LEADERS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK ON THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY, SECONDARY DATA RESOURCES, AND OTHER INFORMATION RELEVANT TO THE CHNA. QUALITATIVE DATA WERE GATHERED FROM 37 COMMUNITY LEADERS IN THE AREA SERVED BY WELLSTAR COBB HOSPITAL, WELLSTAR KENNESTONE HOSPITAL, AND WELLSTAR WINDY HIL HOSPITAL. COMMUNITY LEADERS REPRESENTED ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS COBB AND DOUGLAS PUBLIC HEALTH, GOOD SAMARITAN HEALTH CENTER OF COBB, CHEROKEE COUNTY SENIOR SERVICES, AMONG OTHERS. EACH INTERVIEW WAS CONDUCTED BY GHPC STAFF AND LASTED APPROXIMATELY 45 MINUTES. ALL RESPONDENTS WERE ASKED THE SAME SET OF QUESTIONS DEVELOPED BY GHPC. THE PURPOSE OF THESE INTERVIEWS WAS FOR COMMUNITY LEADERS TO IDENTIFY HEALTH ISSUES AND CONCERNS AFFECTING RESIDENTS IN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE HOSPITALS, AS WELL AS WAYS TO ADDRESS CITED CONCERNS. THE WELLSTAR COMMUNITY HEALTH COUNCIL PROVIDED OVERSIGHT AND GUIDANCE TO THE CHNA TEAM BY REVIEWING AND PROVIDING FEEDBACK ON THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS AND INPUTS THROUGHOUT THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS. WELLSTAR COBB HOSPITAL, WELLSTAR KENNESTONE HOSPITAL, AND WELLSTAR WINDY HILL HOSPITAL LEADERSHIP, INCLUDING THE REGIONAL HEALTH BOARD, WERE ALSO ENGAGED TO INFORM THE SERVICE AREA DEFINITION, LIST COMMUNITY LEADERS FOR STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS, AND FINAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6A | ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDED IN COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA): AS AN INTEGRATED HEALTH SYSTEM, WELLSTAR HEALTH SYSTEM SUBMITTED A JOINT 2022 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) THAT INCLUDED WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL HOSPITALS. THE 2022 CHNA FOR THE HOSPITALS (WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL) DEFINE ITS PRIMARY SERVICE AREA AS ONE COMMUNITY. IN 2019, WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL HOSPITALS WERE INCLUDED IN AN ASSESSMENT OF COMMUNITY NEED FOR TWO OTHER WELLSTAR HOSPITALS (DOUGLAS AND PAULDING HOSPITALS) SERVING RESIDENTS IN 28 ZIP CODE AREAS. THE FOOTPRINT OF THE SERVICE AREA HAS CHANGED WITH ZIP CODES 30328 (FULTON COUNTY) AND 30096 (GWINNETT COUNTY) BEING REPLACED BY 30114 (CHEROKEE COUNTY) AND 30068 (COBB COUNTY), AND THE COUNTIES INCLUDED IN THIS ASSESSMENT DECREASED FROM EIGHT TO THREE (CHEROKEE, COBB, AND FULTON). THIS CONSOLIDATION APPROACH IS SIMILAR TO THE 2015 AND 2018 CHNA REPORTS AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES BECAUSE OF WELLSTAR'S SYSTEM-WIDE DELIVERY SYSTEM OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT SERVICES. IN ADDITION, THIS ENHANCES WELLSTAR'S ABILITY TO BEST LEVERAGE ITS ECONOMIES OF SCALE AND SERVICES TO ADDRESS THE PRIORITIZED HEALTH NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY, ESPECIALLY THE MOST VULNERABLE. FOR THE WELLSTAR HOSPITALS AND ITS COLLABORATIVE COMMUNITY PARTNERS, THE JOINT APPROACH TO ADDRESSING PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS MAXIMIZES RESOURCES TO ENHANCE CARE ACCESS, STRENGTHENS PARTNERSHIPS FOR SHARED RESPONSIBILITY AND HELPS IMPROVE OVERALL COMMUNITY HEALTH. - THE JOINT WELLSTAR HOSPITAL CHNA REPORT MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 501(R)(3). - GUIDED AT THE SYSTEM LEVEL, WELLSTAR HOSPITALS SOLICITED THE HELP OF STATE AND LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND KEY INFORMANTS TO ASSESS THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY AND COLLABORATED IN A FOCUS GROUP TO SOLICIT AND RECEIVE INPUT FROM RESIDENTS, INCLUDING ITS MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, LOW-INCOME, AND MINORITY POPULATIONS. - THE 2022 CHNA REPORT DOCUMENTS THE CHNA PROCESS AND CONTAINS ALL OF THE ELEMENTS DESCRIBED IN THE IRS'S 501(R)(3) SECTION IN THE CODE OF REGULATIONS AS IT RELATES TO COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENTS. - THE WELLSTAR HEALTH SYSTEM BOARD OF TRUSTEES ADOPTED THE JOINT CHNA AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY ON JUNE 2, 2022. - THE JOINT CHNA REPORT IS CLEARLY IDENTIFIED AS APPLYING TO THE HOSPITAL FACILITY. ALL OF WELLSTAR HOSPITALS ARE NOTED ON THE COVER OF THE JOINT CHNA.

| SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11 | PROGRAMS & STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY: WELLSTAR CONTRACTED WITH GEORGIA HEALTH POLICY CENTER (GHPC) TO COLLABORATE ON ITS 2022 CHNA TO IDENTIFY NEEDS AND RESOURCES IN ITS COMMUNITY. GHPC EXAMINED SECONDARY DATA, A LITERATURE REVIEW OF THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON COMMUNITY HEALTH, AND CONSIDERED INPUT FROM PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTS AND COMMUNITY LEADERS AND REPRESENTATIVES. UPON REVIEW OF THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DATA, WELLSTAR USED A SET OF CRITERIA, INCLUDING IMPORTANCE TO STAKEHOLDERS, RELATIVE BURDEN, CURRENT CAPACITY, EXISTING COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVES, AND DISPARITIES TO IDENTIFY AND PRIORITIZE THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS FACING THE COMMUNITY. GHPC DOCUMENTED THEM IN A WRITTEN CHNA REPORT AND AN ACCOMPANYING IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. FROM THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED BY CHNA RESEARCH CONDUCTED, THE FOLLOWING HEALTH NEEDS WERE VALUATED AS PRIORITY FOR ALL HOSPITALS IN WELLSTAR HEALTH SYSTEM: 1. ACCESS TO APPROPRIATE HEALTHCARE 2. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH 3. MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH 4. HEALTHY LIVING (INCLUDING ACCESS TO FOOD, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, AND CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT) 5. HOUSING 6. POVERTY ADDITIONAL NEEDS IN THE WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL HOSPITALS SERVICE AREA 7. CANCER 8. SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES (HIV/AIDS AND STIS) 9. VIOLENCE AND CRIME 10. EDUCATION 11. CULTURALLY COMPETENT SERVICES WHEN COMPARED TO 2019, THE 2022 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS FOR WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL HOSPITALS ARE BROADER IN FOCUS AND TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE LONG-TERM IMPACT OF THE GLOBAL PANDEMIC. THE 2019 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS DID NOT CHANGE AND ARE INCLUDED IN THE NEWLY STATED 2022 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. THROUGH THE CHNA PROCESS, THE HEALTH SYSTEM PRIORITIZED AND ESTABLISHED IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES FOR SIX PRIORITY AREAS. IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES FOR EACH NEED WERE RECOMMENDED DURING KEY STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS AND FOCUS GROUPS WITH SENIOR LEADERSHIP. THE STRATEGIES WERE LATER REVIEWED BY WELLSTAR'S SENIOR LEADERSHIP AND VETTED BY THE WELLSTAR BOARD OF TRUSTEES' COMMUNITY ADVOCACY AND ENGAGEMENT COMMITTEE, THE WELLSTAR BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND THE WELLSTAR CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY COMMITTEE, THE CONDUITS FOR SYSTEM-WIDE DELIVERY OF EQUITY CENTRIC IMPROVEMENT SERVICES AND EDUCATION. IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES WERE ALSO INFORMED BY COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO ATTENDED A COMMUNITY SUMMIT. DURING THE SUMMIT, GHPC GUIDED ATTENDEES THROUGH A HEALTH NEEDS PRIORITATIZATION PROCESS, AND USED GROUP EXERCISES TO SOLICIT INSIGHTS ON STRATEGIES AND PARTNERS WELLSTAR SHOULD ADOPT TO ADDRESS PRIORITIZED HEALTH NEEDS. ACTION AREAS FOR IMPLEMENTATION TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY HEALTH ARE INFLUENCED BY THE FULL SPECTRUM OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEM, IN WHICH WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL HOSPITALS PLAY A VITAL ROLE. EACH ACTION AREA IS FACILITATED UNDER WELLSTAR'S CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY. WELLSTAR CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY: THE PURPOSE OF THE WELLSTAR CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY IS TO ACCELERATE OUR STRATEGIC EFFORTS TO ADDRESS THE PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. OUR APPROACH INCLUDES COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS, INTERNAL TRANSFORMATION, CAPACITY BUILDING, AND HEALTH POLICY AND SYSTEM ADVOCACY. THE SIX STRATEGIC DOMAINS FOR THE CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY BASED ON INSIGHTS FROM THE 2022 CHNA ARE AS FOLLOWS: 1. ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE 2. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH 3. FOOD ACCCESS AND HEALTHY LIVING 4. HOUSING 5. PEDIATRICS (INFANT AND CHILD HEALTH) 6. WOMEN'S HEALTH (MATERNAL HEALTH) WELLSTAR CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY COMMITTEE: WELLSTAR CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY COMMITTEE (WCHEC) IS A CROSS-FUNCTIONAL COMMITTEE THAT REPRESENTS MULTIPLE FACETS OF WELLSTAR HEALTH SYSTEM. - IN RESPONSE TO CHNA FINDINGS AND THE DIVERSITY OF WELLSTAR COMMUNITIES, WCHEC WAS EXPANDED TO INCREASE WELLSTAR'S CAPACITY TO SUPPORT THE CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY'S STRATEGIES. - BY ENGAGING A MORE DIVERSE SELECTION OF WELLSTAR LEADERSHIP AND SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS, THE CENTER'S PRIORITIES AND INITIATIVES CAN BEST REFLECT THE CAPACITY OF THE ORGANIZATION TO IMPACT AND MEET THE COMMUNITY'S NEEDS. - THIS EXPANSION ALSO HELPS THE CENTER INCREASE COORDINATION OF EFFORTS, LEVERAGE PARTNERSHIPS AND MAXIMIZE EFFICIENCY AND STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT, WITHIN AND ACROSS WELLSTAR HEALTH SYSTEM. - THIS IS DONE BY WCHEC MEMBERS GUIDING AND INFORMING THE STRATEGIC PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS FOR GREATER INSTITUTIONAL ALIGNMENT AND IMPACT. THE FOLLOWING DESCRIBES SELECTED STRATEGIES FOR ADDRESSING COMMUNITY NEEDS. WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL HOSPITALS HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO DEVELOP A STRATEGY TARGETING POVERTY IN THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY CAPABLE COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES MEETING THE NEEDS OF RESIDENTS EXPERIENCING POVERTY. WELLSTAR COBB, KENNESTONE, AND WINDY HILL HOSPITALS WILL ADDRESS POVERTY THROUGH MANY OF THE STRATEGIES THEY IMPLEMENT TO ADDRESS EACH OF THE SELECTED PRIORITIES, AND THEY WILL CONTINUE TO PARTNER WITH ORGANIZATIONS AND AGENCIES SERVING RESIDENTS EXPERIENCING POVERTY. 1. ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE - CONTEXT: ACCORDING TO COMMUNITY LEADERS, THERE ARE MANY REASONS FOR POOR ACCESS TO APPROPRIATE HEALTHCARE, INCLUDING LACK OF AFFORDABLE INSURANCE, LACK OF SERVICE PROVIDERS, LACK OF TRUST, AND LACK OF RELIABLE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. ACCESS TO COMPREHENSIVE, QUALITY HEALTH CARE SERVICES IS IMPORTANT FOR PROMOTING AND MAINTAINING HEALTH, PREVENTING AND MANAGING DISEASE, REDUCING UNNECESSARY DISABILITY AND PREMATURE DEATH, AND ACHIEVING HEALTH EQUITY. -EXAMPLE WELLSTAR INTERVENTIONS: -COMMUNITY CLINIC NETWORK: WELLSTAR SUPPORTS CARE LINKAGES FOR COMMUNITY RESIDENTS WITH LIMITED HEALTH CARE ACCESS BY MAINTAINING AND CREATING FORMALIZED RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY SAFETY-NET CLINICS AND GRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION (GME) CLINICS THAT PROVIDE SUBSIDIZED CARE. -COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM: INCREASING ACCESS TO CARE AND SOCIAL SUPPORT THROUGH TECHNOLOGY; WELLSTAR COMMUNITY HEALTH AND CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY FUNDS NON-PROFIT COMMUNITY-BASED PARTNERS TO LEVERAGE TECHNOLOGY TO PRODUCE LONG-TERM, SUSTAINABLE CHANGES IN COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. INITIATIVES ARE TAILORED TO A COMMUNITY NEED AND IN ALIGNMENT WITH EACH PARTNER'S MISSION. AT THE END OF 12 MONTHS, PARTNERS ARE EXPECTED TO DEMONSTRATE IMPROVEMENTS IN: - ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE SO THAT RESIDENTS RECEIVE TIMELY, HIGH-QUALITY, AND CULTURALLY-APPROPRIATE MEDICAL CARE WHEN THEY NEED IT; OR, - ACCESS TO SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH SUPPORT SERVICES SO THAT RESIDENTS RECEIVE TIMELY, HIGH-QUALITY FOOD, EMPLOYMENT, HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, EDUCATION, AND LEGAL RESOURCES TO IMPROVE DAILY LIVING WHEN THEY NEED IT. -COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING: IN PARTNERSHIP WITH BLKHLTH AND COTTONELLE, WELLSTAR COMMUNITY HEALTH AND CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY DISTRIBUTES HOME COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING KITS TO AT-RISK COMMUNITY RESIDENTS THROUGH FAITH COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE WELLSTAR CONGREGATIONAL HEALTH NETWORK. RESIDENTS ARE CONNECTED TO FOLLOW-UP RESOURCES IF THEY DO NOT HAVE A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER OR LACK INSURANCE. -MAMMOGRAPHY VOUCHER DISTRIBUTION: PARTNERSHIP WITH THE WELLSTAR FOUNDATION, SUSAN G. KOMEN GREATER ATLANTA AND IT'S THE JOURNEY, INC. PROVIDES FREE MAMMOGRAMS FOR UNDERSERVED WOMEN WITH A FOCUS ON OUTREACH TO AFRICAN AMERICAN AND HISPANIC WOMEN. 2. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH -CONTEXT: SUICIDE IS A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE THAT AFFECTS PEOPLE OF ALL AGES, RACES AND ETHNICITIES. DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCES OF THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC INCLUDE INCREASES IN OPIOID MISUSE AND RELATED OVERDOSES. -EXAMPLE WELLSTAR INTERVENTIONS: -CONGREGATIONAL HEALTH NETWORK "SOUL SUPPORT" PROGRAM: THIS PROGRAM, COMPRISED OF THREE EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS, AIMS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH EDUCATION, TRAININGS, AND RESOURCES AT CONGREGATIONS ACROSS THE WELLSTAR SERVICE AREA. -OPIOID TASKFORCE: THREE PHYSICIAN-LED WORK GROUPS COMMITTED TO PREVENTION, TREATMENT AND RECOVERY, TARGET VARIOUS POPULATIONS INTERNALLY (TEAM-BASED) AND EXTERNALLY (COMMUNITY-BASED): (1) PROVIDER AND PATIENT EDUCATION, (2) CLINICAL INITIATIVES AND (3) COMMUNITY AWARENESS AND ENGAGEMENT. -WELLSTAR ZERO SUICIDES INITIATIVE: EQUIPS MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS AND DIRECT CARE STAFF WITH KNOWLEDGE OF SUICIDALITY SIGNS AND THE NECESSARY NEXT STEPS, IN THE EVENT OF AN UNEXPECTED MENTAL HEALTH EPISODE TO ENSURE PATIENTS ARE SAFE AND PROPERLY SUPPORTED IN CARE AND COMMUNITY. 3. FOOD ACCESS AND HEALTHY LIVING -CONTEXT: UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES MAY BE FOOD DESERTS IN WHICH THERE IS LIMITED PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, AND GROCERY STORES ARE LOCATED SEVERAL MILES AWAY. THESE COMMUNITIES ARE ALSO TARGETED BY FAST-FOOD MARKETING. COMMUNITY LEADERS AND RESIDENTS INDICATED THAT THERE ARE BARRIERS TO HEALTHY LIVING, INCLUDING KNOWLEDGE AND ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOOD, AS WELL AS BENEFICIAL AMENITIES. -EXAMPLE WELLSTAR INTERVENTIONS: -MOBILE MARKET: IN NOVEMBER 2020, WELLSTAR LAUNCHED A NEW "MOBILE MARKET" COLLABORATION WITH GOODR, A COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATION THAT PROVIDES RE-DISTRIBUTION |

THROUGH THIS NETWORK, WELLSTAR CAN DIFFUSE INFORMATION, IMPLEMENT PROGRAMS AT TRUSTED NEIGHBORHOOD-BASED SITES AND STRENGTHEN THE ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE WHOLE-PERSON SUPPORT. COMMUNITY CLINIC NETWORK ACCORDING TO THE CHNA ACCESS TO CARE INDICATORS, MANY MEMBERS OF WELLSTAR'S COMMUNITY HAVE CARE ACCESS CHALLENGES IN LARGE PART DUE TO INSURANCE CONSTRAINTS AND PROVIDER ACCESS SHORTAGES. ACCORDING TO HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020, "ACCESS TO COMPREHENSIVE, QUALITY HEALTH CARE SERVICES IS IMPORTANT FOR PROMOTING AND MAINTAINING HEALTH, PREVENTING AND MANAGING DISEASE, REDUCING UNNECESSARY DISABILITY AND PREMATURE DEATH, AND ACHIEVING HEALTH EQUITY." WELLSTAR IS COMMITTED TO SERVING OUR COMMUNITY'S MOST VULNERABLE AND UNDER-RESOURCED POPULATIONS. IN 2016, WELLSTAR 4-1 CARE WAS CREATED TO INCREASE ACCESS TO CARE AND THE CAPACITY OF PARTNERING COMMUNITY CLINICS BY PROVIDING REDUCED-COST OUTPATIENT MEDICAL SERVICES. RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT WHEN HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS LIKE WELLSTAR PARTNER WITH COMMUNITY SAFETY-NET CLINICS, THE FOLLOWING CAN OCCUR. - REDUCTION IN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS - REDUCTION IN AVOIDABLE READMISSIONS - INCREASE IN PATIENT SATISFACTION SCORES PREVENT ILLNESS BY PROMOTING HEALTHY BEHAVIORS IN PEOPLE WITHOUT RISK FACTORS (E.G., DIET AND EXERCISE COUNSELING) - PREVENT ILLNESS BY PROVIDING PROTECTION TO THOSE AT RISK (E.G., CHILDHOOD VACCINATIONS) - IDENTIFY AND TREAT PEOPLE WITH NO SYMPTOMS, BUT WHO HAVE RISK FACTORS, BEFORE THE CLINICAL ILLNESS DEVELOPS (E.G., SCREENING FOR HYPERTENSION OR DIABETES) |
| COMMUNITY CLINIC NETWORK (CONT.) | THE COMMUNITY CLINIC NETWORK HAS EVOLVED TO ADVANCE WELLSTAR'S ABILITY TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY ACCESS TO CARE AND SOCIAL SUPPORT SERVICES. AS WELLSTAR'S GEOGRAPHICAL FOOTPRINT HAS EXPANDED, WELLSTAR IS ALSO COMMITTED TO FORGING NEW PARTNERSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY CLINICS (I.E., COMMUNITY SAFETY-NET CLINICS, COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS AND FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS) TO MORE COLLECTIVELY ACHIEVE OPTIMAL OUTCOMES FOR MORE MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED AND UNINSURED RESIDENTS. IN ADDITION, THE COMMUNITY CLINIC NETWORK EVOLVED TO INCLUDE COMMUNITY BENEFIT SUPPORT OF WELLSTAR'S THREE COMMUNITY CLINICS-WELLSTAR AMC SHEFFIELD COMMUNITY CLINIC, WELLSTAR KENNESTONE COMMUNITY CLINIC AND WELLSTAR WEST GEORGIA COMMUNITY SERVICE CLINIC. IN ALIGNMENT WITH WELLSTAR'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (FAP), THESE COMMUNITY-BASED CLINICS PROVIDE CHARITABLE DISCOUNTED OR FREE CARE BASED ON SOCIOECONOMIC FACTORS LIKE A PATIENT'S HOUSEHOLD INCOME, INSURANCE STATUS AND/OR FAMILY SIZE. THESE CLINICS HELP SOME OF WELLSTAR'S MOST UNDER-RESOURCED AND VULNERABLE COMMUNITY MEMBERS RECEIVE MEDICAL SERVICES LIKE CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT, WELLNESS EXAMS, VACCINATIONS AND MEDICATION COUNSELING. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PHYSICIAN LEADERSHIP, GRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION (GME) RESIDENTS SERVE PATIENTS AT THE SHEFFIELD AND KENNESTONE CLINICS. TO SUPPORT THESE WELLSTAR GME RESIDENTS, STRUCTURED EDUCATION HAS BEEN PROVIDED TO HELP RESIDENTS BETTER UNDERSTAND HEALTH DISPARITIES, HEALTH EQUITY AND COMMUNITY HEALTH PRIORITIES. THROUGH THE COMMUNITY CLINIC NETWORK, WELLSTAR WILL CONTINUE TO LEVERAGE THE FACT THAT COMMUNITY-BASED CLINICS ARE LONG RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR ABILITY TO EFFECTIVELY IMPROVE AND EXPAND PATIENT ACCESS TO MEDICAL, DENTAL AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES. COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE IMPACTS AN INDIVIDUAL'S ABILITY TO OBTAIN AND MAINTAIN ADEQUATE PHYSICAL, SOCIAL AND MENTAL HEALTH STATUS. WELLSTAR'S CHNA IDENTIFIED BOTH THE NEED FOR ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE AND SOCIAL SUPPORT AS LEADING HEALTH CONCERNS FOR DISPARATE AND UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES. DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES INCREASINGLY EXPERIENCED HEALTH DISPARITIES AND GAPS IN SUPPORT; COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS EXPERIENCED NEED FOR RELIABLE AND SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS FOR OFFERING VIRTUAL CARE. WELLSTAR CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY'S COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM PROVIDES A SCALABLE SOLUTION FOR IMPROVING ACCESS TO CARE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH TRUSTED COMMUNITY NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. EACH YEAR, WELLSTAR FUNDS A COHORT OF INITIATIVES THAT LEVERAGE TECHNOLOGY TO PRODUCE LONG-TERM, SUSTAINABLE CHANGES IN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. INITIATIVES ARE EXPECTED TO BE TAILORED TO A COMMUNITY NEED AND ALIGN WITH EACH PARTNER'S MISSION. AT THE END OF 12 MONTHS, PARTNERS ARE EXPECTED TO DEMONSTRATE IMPROVEMENTS IN: - ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE SO THAT RESIDENTS RECEIVE TIMELY, HIGH-QUALITY AND CULTURALLY APPROPRIATE MEDICAL CARE WHEN THEY NEED IT; OR, - ACCESS TO SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH SUPPORT SERVICES SO THAT RESIDENTS RECEIVE TIMELY, HIGH-QUALITY FOOD, EMPLOYMENT, HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, EDUCATION AND LEGAL RESOURCES TO IMPROVE DAILY LIVING WHEN THEY NEED IT. SOUL SUPPORT TO ADDRESS THE BEHAVIORAL NEEDS OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND MITIGATE THE ROLE OF MENTAL HEALTH STIGMA, WELLSTAR LAUNCHED AN INITIATIVE CALLED SOUL SUPPORT, WHICH INCLUDES THREE EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAMS TO PROVIDE MENTAL HEALTH EDUCATION AND SUPPORT. THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMS ARE FACILITATED THROUGH WELLSTAR'S CONGREGATIONAL HEALTH NETWORK, WHEREBY PROGRAMS TAKE PLACE AT FAITH-BASED ORGANIZATIONS. 1. WELLSTAR PARTNERS WITH ATLANTA REGIONAL COMMISSION'S HEALTHY AGING DIVISION TO PROVIDE "POWERFUL TOOLS FOR CAREGIVERS" - A SIX-WEEK SERIES SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO HELP CAREGIVERS LEARN TO TAKE BETTER CARE OF THEMSELVES. POWERFUL TOOLS IS PRESENTED BY CERTIFIED LAY LEADERS. THE WORKSHOP USES AN EVIDENCE-BASED CURRICULUM THAT HAS BEEN FOUND TO HAVE SIGNIFICANT POSITIVE RESULTS FOR PARTICIPANTS. 2. QUESTION, PERSUADE AND REFER (QPR) INSTITUTE STARTED AS A JOINT EFFORT WITH A WASHINGTON STATE MENTAL HEALTH CENTER AND THEIR MISSION IS TO "SAVE LIVES AND REDUCE SUICIDAL BEHAVIORS BY PROVIDING INNOVATIVE, PRACTICAL AND PROVEN SUICIDE PREVENTION TRAINING." THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVES ARE TO TRAIN PARTICIPANTS TO UNDERSTAND THE NATURE AND RANGE OF SUICIDAL COMMUNICATIONS AND HOW TO INTERVENE ON BEHALF OF SUICIDAL AND IN-CRISIS PEOPLE, PROVIDING LOCAL MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCES AS WELL. QPR IS USED TO HELP SAVE LIVES FROM SUICIDE BY TRAINING INDIVIDUALS HOW TO RECOGNIZE THE WARNING SIGNS OF A SUICIDE CRISIS AND HOW TO "QUESTION, PERSUADE AND REFER SOMEONE TO HELP." 3. MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID IS A PUBLIC EDUCATION PROGRAM "THAT CAN HELP COMMUNITIES UNDERSTAND MENTAL ILLNESSES, SEEK TIMELY INTERVENTION, AND SAVE LIVES." BY PROVIDING EDUCATION SURROUNDING MENTAL ILLNESS AS WELL AS RESOURCES AVAILABLE IN THEIR AREA, FAITH-BASED LEADERS WILL BE MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE IN WAYS TO SUPPORT THEIR CONGREGANTS. IT WAS DEVELOPED IN 2001 WITH THE GOAL OF PROVIDING PARTICIPANTS WITH THE TOOLS NEEDED TO START A CONVERSATION ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE PROBLEMS AS WELL AS RESOURCES AVAILABLE. COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH BLKHLTH AND COTTONELLE WELLSTAR CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY ESTABLISHED A PARTNERSHIP WITH BLKHLTH, A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION WHOSE MISSION IS TO REDUCE THE IMPACT OF RACISM THROUGH EDUCATION AND ACTION. ONE OF THEIR CURRENT INITIATIVES IS A COLLABORATION WITH COTTONELLE ON THE #GOODDOWNTHERE CAMPAIGN. THIS NATIONAL PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO REDUCE STIGMA SURROUNDING COLORECTAL CARE BY PROVIDING EQUITY-CENTRIC ACCESS FOR COLORECTAL CANCER TO BLACK AMERICANS. COLORECTAL CANCER, ALSO CALLED COLON OR RECTAL CANCER, IS THE THIRD MOST COMMON CANCER IN THE UNITED STATES AND THE SECOND MOST COMMON CANCER-RELATED DEATH. THROUGH THEIR COLLABORATION WITH COTTONELLE, BLKHLTH PROVIDES WELLSTAR WITH COMPLIMENTARY COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING KITS TO BE DISTRIBUTED ACROSS OUR SERVICE AREA. MEMBERS OF WELLSTAR'S CONGREGATIONAL HEALTH NETWORK SERVE AS AMBASSADORS TO DISTRIBUTE THE SCREENING KITS WITHIN THEIR COMMUNITIES. OUR GOAL IS TO BRING EDUCATION AND ACCESS TO INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE NOT BEEN SCREENED DUE TO FEAR, LACK OF HEALTH INSURANCE OR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. BREAST CANCER SCREENING FOR THE PAST TEN YEARS, WELLSTAR HAS PROVIDED BREAST SCREENING AND DIAGNOSTIC SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS WHO LACK ACCESS TO OR ARE UNABLE TO AFFORD THESE LIFE-SAVING SERVICES WITHIN WELLSTAR'S SERVICE AREAS. BY PROVIDING THESE SERVICES AT NO COST TO THOSE IN NEED, WE SEEK TO ELIMINATE EXISTING BREAST CANCER DISPARITIES AND DECREASE THE NUMBER OF LATE-STAGE BREAST CANCER DIAGNOSES BY PROVIDING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE WITHIN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. THIS PROGRAM INCREASES THE NUMBER OF REGULAR MAMMOGRAM SCREENINGS AND DIAGNOSTIC SERVICES PROVIDED, PARTICULARLY WITHIN HIGH-RISK COMMUNITIES, ENABLING WELLSTAR HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS TO DETECT BREAST CANCER AT AN EARLIER STAGE AND RESULTING IN BETTER TREATMENT OPTIONS AND IMPROVED OUTCOMES FOR OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS. TO IDENTIFY PATIENTS WHO NEED ACCESS TO THESE SERVICES MOST, WE PARTNER WITH LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS, COMMUNITY CLINICS, A CONGREGATIONAL NURSE NETWORK AND A ROBUST LIST OF OTHER TRUSTED COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS. THE WELLSTAR PHYSICIAN LIAISON TEAM AND WELLSTAR CLINICAL PARTNERS TEAM ALSO WORKS WITH 3,000+ WELLSTAR MEDICAL GROUP PHYSICIANS AND PARTNER PHYSICIANS THROUGHOUT OUR SERVICE AREA TO GENERATE REFERRALS TO THE PROGRAM. MOBILE MARKET PROGRAM IN 2020, WELLSTAR LAUNCHED A MOBILE MARKET PROGRAM TO FEED MORE THAN 700 METRO ATLANTA AT-RISK FAMILIES ACROSS SIX GEORGIA COUNTIES. IN COLLABORATION WITH GOODR, THE JOINT INITIATIVE ADDRESSES FOOD ACCESS FOR VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES IN WELLSTAR'S SERVICE AREAS. THE SPRING-SUMMER MOBILE MARKET PROGRAM INCLUDED SEVEN COMMUNITY-BASED LOCATIONS THAT PROVIDED FREE, FRESH AND HEALTHY FOOD OPTIONS MONTHLY TO 100 FAMILIES IN NEED AT EACH LOCATION. THROUGH WELLSTAR FOUNDATION AND VITAL COMMUNITY FUNDING, GOODR PROVIDED FOOD AND STAFFING SUPPORT FOR THIS PROGRAM, REGISTERED PARTICIPANTS AND PROVIDED IMPACT REPORTING EACH MONTH. WELLSTAR PROVIDED PROGRAM LOGISTICAL SUPPORT, PARTICIPANT INCENTIVES AND NUTRITION EDUCATION. NEW COMMUNITY PARTNERS HELPED RECRUIT VOLUNTEERS AND SET UP FOOD DISTRIBUTION SITES IN KEY SERVICE AREAS, INCLUDING COBB, TROUP, FULTON, SPALDING, PAULDING, AND DOUGLAS COUNTIES. SINCE THEN, THE WELLSTAR MOBILE MARKET PROGRAM HAS EXPANDED TO INCLUDE: - THE ADDITION OF BUTTS COUNTY AS A PRIORITY LOCATION, - ON-SITE HEALTH EDUCATION IN ALIGNMENT WITH HEALTH AWARENESS MONTHS, AND - AVAILABILITY OF A BENEFITS SPECIALIST TO ASSIST FAMILIES WITH ENROLLMENT INTO PUBLIC FOOD PROGRAMS. |
