| ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 3J: IN ADDITION TO THE ITEMS CHECKED IN BOXES A - I, OTHER INFORMATION WAS INCLUDED IN THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT. AS THE CENTRAL PEDIATRIC HOSPITAL IN THE STATE OF ARKANSAS, ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL (ACH) CONSIDERS ITS COMMUNITY TO INCLUDE ALL 700,000 CHILDREN IN THE STATE. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) CONTAINED INFORMATION ABOUT THE STATEWIDE COALITION IT CONVENES, THE NATURAL WONDERS PARTNERSHIP COUNCIL (NWPC), WHICH WORKS TOGETHER TO IMPROVE CHILD HEALTH. NATURAL WONDERS USES THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT AS ITS AGENDA FOR IMPROVING CHILD HEALTH IN ARKANSAS, INCLUDING IN AREAS THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT ADDRESS IN A LEADERSHIP ROLE. SINCE CHILDREN'S HEALTH IS SO CLOSELY TIED TO ADULT HEALTH, ACH INCLUDED SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THE HEALTH STATUS OF ADULTS. THE REPORT ALSO CONTAINED "BIG IDEAS AND "VISION" FROM THE QUALITATIVE DATA COLLECTION FOR IMPROVING CHILD HEALTH TO HELP INSPIRE THE WORK THAT RESULTS FROM THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THE REPORT CONTAINED INFORMATION ABOUT THE IMPACT OF THE ACTIVITIES RESULTING FROM THE PREVIOUS CHNA. |
| ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: IN FY19, THE HOSPITAL TOOK A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO UNDERSTAND CHILD HEALTH AND CONSIDERED BOTH SECONDARY AND PRIMARY DATA AT THE LOCAL, REGIONAL, AND STATE LEVEL TO DETERMINE THE HEALTH NEEDS OF ARKANSAS' CHILDREN. SECONDARY DATA SETS REVIEWED INCLUDED: U.S. CENSUS BUREAU, CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL & PREVENTION, ANNIE E. CASEY KIDS COUNT DATA CENTER, ARKANSAS STATE AGENCY DATABASES, THE YOUTH RISK BEHAVIOR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM (YRBSS), AND RESEARCH FROM LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS.MEMBERS OF THE NATURAL WONDERS PARTNERSHIP COUNCIL PROVIDED INPUT AND FEEDBACK ON THE CHNA AT ALL STAGES OF ITS DEVELOPMENT, FROM DESIGN, TO INITIAL OUTCOMES, TO A FINAL REPORT. MANY MEMBERS ALSO PARTICIPATED BY PROVIDING DATA, TO AND INTERVIEWS FOR, THE CHNA TEAM. NATURAL WONDERS MEMBERS REPRESENT A VARIETY OF STAKEHOLDERS INCLUDING: ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH OFFICIALS, THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS FOR MEDICAL SCIENCES COLLEGE OF PUBLIC HEALTH, HEALTH POLICY ORGANIZATIONS, HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS, RESEARCHERS, NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, MEMBERSHIP ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDING THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS, THE ARKANSAS DEPARTMENTS OF EDUCATION AND HUMAN SERVICES, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AGENCIES, DENTAL INSURANCE PROVIDERS, MEMBERS OF FAITH COMMUNITIES, LOW-INCOME LEGAL AID SERVICES, PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS, AND A STATEWIDE EDUCATION-FOCUSED COLLECTIVE IMPACT COALITION.OVER 600 PEOPLE AROUND THE STATE GAVE FEEDBACK ON CHILD HEALTH ASSETS AND NEEDS THROUGH THE CHNA PROCESS, HELPING TO OBTAIN IN-DEPTH INFORMATION, OPINIONS, AND INSIGHT ABOUT IMPORTANT DIMENSIONS IN HEALTH, HEALTHCARE, AND HEALTH PROMOTION FROM THESE CRITICAL STAKEHOLDERS IN CHILD HEALTH. ALTHOUGH THE CHNA TEAM DID NOT SEEK FEEDBACK DIRECTLY FROM CHILDREN, MEANINGFUL ENGAGEMENT AND INPUT FROM A BROAD CROSS-SECTION OF ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS THROUGHOUT THE STATE WAS IMPORTANT TO THE SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF THE FY19 CHNA. AN ANONYMOUS TELEPHONE SURVEY OF 400 ARKANSAS PARENTS PROVIDED A STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT MEASURE OF PARENT OPINIONS AND PERCEIVED NEEDS AT THE STATE LEVEL. TO GATHER A MORE IN-DEPTH UNDERSTANDING OF STATEWIDE CHILD HEALTH NEEDS, A PURPOSEFUL SAMPLE OF 169 PARENTS AND CHILDREN'S SERVICE PROVIDERS FROM DIVERSE REGIONS AND POPULATIONS ACROSS ARKANSAS WERE ENGAGED THROUGH 16 NINETY-MINUTE FOCUS GROUPS. DIVERSITY IN GEOGRAPHIC AND RURAL/URBAN STATUS WAS PRIORITIZED, AND LANGUAGE DIVERSITY WAS PRIORITIZED BY CONDUCTING TWO FOCUS GROUPS IN SPANISH AND ONE IN MARSHALLESE. NAMES WERE NOT COLLECTED IN THE FOCUS GROUPS OR THE STATEWIDE SURVEY TO ASSURE ANONYMITY FOR THE PARENTS AND CHILD SERVICE PROVIDERS WHO PARTICIPATED. TO PROVIDE A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE SECONDARY DATA USED IN THE FY19 CHNA, ONE-HOUR INTERVIEWS WERE CONDUCTED WITH CHILD HEALTH THOUGHT LEADERS AND SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS IN THE STATE. THE 39 KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS REACHED PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS, HEALTH POLICY EXPERTS, HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS AND ADMINISTRATORS, NON-PROFIT EXECUTIVES, STATE AGENCY LEADS, COMMUNITY LEADERS, RESEARCHERS, AND HEALTH INSURANCE REPRESENTATIVES. THROUGH THE FY19 CHNA PROCESS THE FOLLOWING CHILD HEALTH NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED AND PRIORITIZED WITH PARTICIPATION OF THE NWPC: PARENTING SUPPORTS, SOCIAL ISSUES, MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE, EQUITABLE ACCESS TO CARE, FOOD INSECURITY, CHILD OBESITY, REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH, ORAL HEALTH, CHILD INJURY, AND IMMUNIZATIONS. THESE ELEVATED AND PRIORITIZED ISSUES FORMED THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE 2020-2022 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. |
| ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6A: THE ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL CHNA WAS CONDUCTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S NORTHWEST. BOTH HOSPITALS ARE PART OF THE ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S SYSTEM AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS IS A SHARED COMMUNITY OF BOTH HOSPITALS. |
| ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6B: ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S CONDUCTED THE NEEDS ASSESSMENTS FOR EACH OF THE TWO HOSPITALS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ORGANIZATIONS OTHER THAN HOSPITAL FACILITIES. MEMBERS OF THE NATURAL WONDERS PARTNERSHIP COUNCIL, A COALITION OF STATEWIDE ORGANIZATIONS, PROVIDED INPUT AND FEEDBACK ON THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENTS FOR ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AS WELL AS ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S NORTHWEST. MANY ALSO PROVIDED DATA AND INTERVIEWS TO THE ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S STAFF MEMBERS WHO WORKED ON THE NEEDS ASSESSMENTS.

NATURAL WONDERS MEMBER ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS, ARKANSAS CHAPTER ARKANSAS ACCESS TO JUSTICE COMMISSIONARKANSAS ADVOCATES FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIESARKANSAS ASSOCIATION OF EDUCATION ADMINISTRATORSARKANSAS BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELDARKANSAS CAMPAIGN FOR GRADE-LEVEL READINGARKANSAS CENTER FOR HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITALARKANSAS COALITION FOR OBESITY PREVENTIONARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES, DIVISION OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICESARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES, DIVISION OF MEDICAL SERVICES (MEDICAID)ARKANSAS FOODBANKARKANSAS FOUNDATION FOR MEDICAL CAREARKANSAS HOME VISITING NETWORKARKANSAS HUNGER RELIEF ALLIANCEARKANSAS MINORITY HEALTH COMMISSIONARKANSAS PHARMACIST ASSOCIATIONBLUE & YOU FOUNDATIONCOMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS OF ARKANSASDELTA DENTAL OF ARKANSASUNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS FOR MEDICAL SCIENCES - COLLEGE OF PUBLIC HEALTHUNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS FOR MEDICAL SCIENCES - COLLEGE OF MEDICINE |
| ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7D: THE 2019 CHNA WAS DISTRIBUTED TO OVER 40 OF ITS PARTNERS THROUGH THE NATURAL WONDERS PARTNERSHIP COUNCIL (NWPC) AND ITS MULTIPLE WORKGROUPS. ADDITIONALLY, THE 2019 CHNA RESULTS WERE SIMPLIFIED AND COMBINED TO GENERATE A NEW 2020-2022 NATURAL WONDERS ACTION PLAN REPORT. THE 2019 CHNA, 2020-2022 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY FOR ACH, AND THE 2020-2022 NATURAL WONDERS ACTION PLAN ARE EACH AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC VIEW ON THE ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S WEBSITE. |
| ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT INTRODUCTION: DURING FISCAL YEAR 2021, ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL (ACH) CONTINUED WORKING ON THE NEW ACTIONS AND CONTINUING INITIATIVES FROM THE 2020-2022 ACH IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY INCLUDES DESCRIPTIONS OF THE PROPOSED NEW ACTIONS, CONTINUING INITIATIVES AND THE ANTICIPATED IMPACT AND STAKEHOLDER GROUPS FOR EACH OF THE TEN CHILD HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE 2019 ACH COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THE 2020-2022 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY WAS APPROVED BY THE ACH BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN OCTOBER 2019. UPDATES ON ACTIONS MADE DURING FY21 FOR EACH OF THE 2019 CHNA PRIORITIZED ISSUES ARE LISTED BELOW. MANY STRATEGIES WERE COMPLETED BY ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL STAFF. SOME STRATEGIES WERE LED BY NATURAL WONDERS PARTNERSHIP COUNCIL MEMBER ORGANIZATIONS WHO IDENTIFIED KEY WAYS FOR ACH TO PARTNER WITH THEM ON CHILD HEALTH IMPROVEMENT. IN ADDITION, SOME STRATEGIES WERE SUPPORTED THROUGH ACH FUNDING, AND WORK WAS COMPLETED BY A CONTRACTED PARTNER. ADDRESSING FY21 COMMUNITY IMPACTS OF COVID-19: THE WORK TO ADDRESS THE SOCIAL NEEDS AND HEALTH NEEDS CREATED BY THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAVE STRETCHED BEYOND A SINGLE YEAR. THIS SUMMARY OF THE WORK ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S IS DOING TO ADDRESS THE SOCIAL IMPACTS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES INCLUDES INITIATIVES THAT BEGAN IN MARCH 2020 AND HAVE CONTINUED TO FULFILL ONGOING NEEDS. SPECIFIC NUMBERS AND INITIATIVES MENTIONED BELOW ARE RELATED TO THE JULY 2020 TO JUNE 2021 FISCAL YEAR. THE ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S TELEHEALTH DEPARTMENT CREATED THE CAPABILITY FOR MORE THAN 70 CLINICS TO HAVE TELEMEDICINE APPOINTMENTS. BEFORE THE ONSET OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HELD ANYWHERE FROM 10 TO 20 TELEMEDICINE VISITS PER DAY. WITH THE EXPANDED CAPABILITY AND THE INCREASED NEED, THE NUMBER OF TELEMEDICINE VISITS HAS INCREASED TO OVER 100 VISITS EACH DAY, INCLUDING VISITS FOR PATIENTS OF ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S NORTHWEST. OF THE TELEHEALTH VISITS SINCE JULY 2020, 29% OF THE VISITS ORIGINATED IN A RURAL COUNTY. THE OTHER TWO-THIRDS OF VISITS WERE FOR PATIENTS THAT LIVE IN COUNTIES THAT ARE PARTIALLY RURAL. TELEHEALTH IS AN IMPORTANT METHOD FOR ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S TO REACH RURAL AND VULNERABLE CHILDREN CLOSER TO THEIR HOMES. ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S SET UP A STATEWIDE HOTLINE TO RESPOND TO CALLS RELATED TO COVID-19 AND CHILDREN'S HEALTH QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS. THE HOTLINE WAS LAUNCHED ON MARCH 12, 2020 AND FACILITATED OVER 3,000 PHONE CALLS EACH MONTH. THE SERVICE CONTINUED UNTIL OCTOBER 25, 2020. CALLS WERE ANSWERED 24 HOURS A DAY, SEVEN DAYS A WEEK BY CLINICAL SUPPORT STAFF; THESE 63 TEAM MEMBERS HELPED PROVIDE INFORMATION, CLINICAL EXPERTISE, AND GUIDANCE TO CALLERS WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT COVID-19. ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S STRATEGIC MARKETING DEPARTMENT CREATED PUBLIC SERVICE COMMUNICATION TO ENCOURAGE HAND WASHING, SOCIAL DISTANCING, AND WEARING MASKS. THESE MESSAGES WERE SHARED WITH OTHER HEALTHCARE FACILITIES FOR COLLABORATIVE USE. ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S CHILD LIFE LEADERS SHARED EXPERT CONTENT ON PLATFORMS LIKE FACEBOOK LIVE TO GIVE ADVICE TO FAMILIES PREPARING FOR CLINIC VISITS, IN ADDITION TO HOW TO PROPERLY WEAR A MASK.AS ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S WORKED TO SERVE THE STATE THROUGH THE PANDEMIC, COMMUNITIES SHARED THEIR GENEROSITY WITH ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S, AS WELL. FROM JULY 2020 TO JUNE 2021, 47,330 CLOTH MASKS WERE DONATED TO THE ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S SYSTEM FOR DISTRIBUTION TO ANY PATIENT OR CAREGIVER WHO NEEDED ONE WHILE ATTENDING AN APPOINTMENT AT AN ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S FACILITY. OF THE SYSTEM TOTAL, 43,266 MASKS WERE DONATED TO ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL SPECIFICALLY, FOR REDISTRIBUTION AND USE. ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S SENIOR LEADERSHIP SERVED IN VARIOUS CAPACITIES ON LOCAL AND STATEWIDE ADVISORY BOARDS. ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S PARTICIPATED IN A COLLABORATIVE TASK FORCE THAT HAS FOCUSED ON PROVIDING RESOURCES FOR SCHOOLS, EDUCATORS, STUDENTS, AND FAMILIES, AS THE STATE PREPARED FOR A RETURN TO SAFE, IN-PERSON LEARNING. ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S PRESIDENT AND CEO, MARCY DODERER, SERVED ON THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE OF THIS TASKFORCE. DR. FREDERICK BARR, CHAIR OF PEDIATRICS AND PEDIATRICIAN IN CHIEF, SERVED AS THE CHAIR OF THE SCHOOL RESOURCE CENTER & HOTLINE WORK GROUP. DR. MARISHA DICARLO, VICE PRESIDENT OF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, ADVOCACY, AND HEALTH, SERVED AS THE CHAIR OF THE HEALTHY SCHOOLS GUIDE WORK GROUP. ADDITIONAL TEAM MEMBERS FROM ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S SERVED IN A VARIETY OF CAPACITIES TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE ASSETS THE TASKFORCE PRODUCED. THIS TASKFORCE PROVIDED IMPORTANT AND TIMELY GUIDES AND INFORMATION TO SCHOOLS AND FAMILIES ABOUT SCHOOLS REOPENING IN FALL 2020. TWO IMPORTANT GUIDES WERE PRODUCED, ARKANSAS READY TO LEARN: HEALTHY SCHOOL GUIDE (AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH), AS WELL AS HELPING STUDENTS COPE GUIDE: SOCIAL EMOTIONAL SUPPORTS FOR THE CLASSROOM. ALL OF THESE TASK FORCES PROVIDED GUIDANCE AND INFORMATIONAL PRODUCTS THAT WERE USED ACROSS BROAD COMMUNITIES AND A VARIETY OF SECTORS IN THE STATE.ADDITIONALLY, PART OF THE SYSTEM-WIDE WORK TO ADDRESS THE SOCIAL ISSUES OF FAMILIES IS THE CLOSED-LOOP REFERRAL SYSTEM, ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S RESOURCE CONNECT (POWERED BY FINDHELP.ORG). THIS SYSTEM WAS LAUNCHED IN APRIL 2021 FOR USE BY PATIENTS, FAMILIES, AND STAFF AT ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S NORTHWEST. RESOURCE CONNECT HELPS STAFF ADDRESS SOCIAL NEEDS IN A CLINICAL SETTING AND PROVIDES CONNECTION TO COMMUNITY RESOURCES. IN ADDITION, THE SITE HAS AN OUTWARD FACING COMPONENT THAT ALLOWS FOR ANYONE, ANYWHERE TO SEARCH FOR FREE AND REDUCED-COST RESOURCES THAT HELP ADDRESS AND ALLEVIATE THE SOCIAL VULNERABILITIES THAT IMPACT HEALTH. IN THE FIRST THREE MONTHS OF USE (APRIL TO JUNE 2021), OVER 350 SEARCHES OCCURRED WITH THE MOST COMMON SEARCHES BEING FOR FOOD PANTRIES, HELP TO PAY FOR UTILITIES, AND HELP TO PAY FOR HOUSING. THIS DIGITAL SYSTEM IS HELPING ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S CONNECT FAMILIES WITH ITEMS TO MEET THEIR BASIC NEEDS AND OTHER SOCIAL RESOURCES DURING A CHALLENGING TIME. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11 - CONTINUED | (1) PARENTING SUPPORTS:IN FY21, NATURAL WONDERS RECONFIGURED ITS WORKGROUPS, AND A NEW GROUP WAS CREATED FOR THE FIRST 2,100 DAYS OF LIFE. THIS WORKGROUP FOCUSES ON THE RESOURCES AND SUPPORT THAT EXPECTING MOTHERS AND CHILDREN BIRTH TO FIVE YEARS OLD NEED TO BE HEALTHY. THEY ARE ALSO FURTHERING THE PREVIOUS WORK OF THE NATURAL WONDERS PARENTING SUPPORTS WORKGROUP. ACH AND ITS PARTNERS KNOW THAT A STRONG COMMUNITY CAN AND SHOULD PROVIDE VARIOUS SOCIAL AND COMMUNITY SUPPORTS TO HELP MORE ARKANSAS PARENTS RAISE HAPPY, HEALTHY CHILDREN CAPABLE OF LIFE-LONG LEARNING. THE ARKANSAS HOME VISITING NETWORK (AHVN) IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND ACH. AHVN IS A THRIVING COALITION OF PROVIDERS AND STAKEHOLDERS THAT WORK TOGETHER TO HELP PARENTS AND CHILDREN IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES. THE AHVN CONTINUES TO IMPLEMENT SIX EVIDENCE-BASED HOME VISITING MODELS: FOLLOWING BABY BACK HOME (FBBH), HEALTHY FAMILIES ARKANSAS (HFA), HOME INSTRUCTION FOR PARENTS OF PRESCHOOL YOUNGSTERS (HIPPY), NURSE FAMILY PARTNERSHIP (NFP), PARENTS AS TEACHERS (PAT), AND SAFECARE. IN ADDITION, ACH IS PILOTING THE FAMILY CONNECTS PROGRAM IN UNION COUNTY, WHERE PREVIOUSLY THERE WAS SPARSE HOME VISITING COVERAGE. IT IS THE FIRST UNIVERSAL HOME VISITING PROGRAM IN THE STATE. IT IS BEING IMPLEMENTED WITH FIDELITY, AND EXPECTS TO ACHIEVE CERTIFICATION IN FY23.IN FY21, THESE PROGRAMS HELPED APPROXIMATELY 8,000 FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN NEWBORN TO AGE FIVE IN ALL 75 COUNTIES IN ARKANSAS. IN RESPONSE TO THE COVID PANDEMIC, EACH OF THE HOME VISITING MODELS ADAPTED ITS APPROACH. THE MAJORITY OF THE MODELS STOPPED IN-PERSON HOME VISITING SERVICES AT THE END OF MARCH 2020 AND RAPIDLY TRANSITIONED TO VIRTUAL FORMATS BY EARLY MAY. APPROXIMATELY 20% OF FAMILIES SERVED THROUGH HOME VISITING MODELS HAVE NO ACCESS TO VIRTUAL MEANS OF CONDUCTING VISITS AND FOR THOSE FAMILIES, HOME VISITORS HAVE CONDUCTED A MIX OF VISITS IN PERSON UTILIZING PPE AND VISITS BY PHONE. ADDITIONALLY, ACH CONTINUED TO LEASE OFFICE SPACE ON ITS CAMPUS AT A DISCOUNTED RATE OF $1 PER YEAR TO THE NATIONAL HOME VISITING PARTNER HEADQUARTERED IN LITTLE ROCK, HIPPY USA.THE ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S INJURY PREVENTION CENTER PROVIDES MANY PROGRAMS TO ASSIST PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS. THE SAFETY ZONE IS A PUBLIC SPACE ON THE ACH CAMPUS WHERE FAMILIES CAN RECEIVE EDUCATION AND PRODUCTS TO PROMOTE SAFETY. IN FY21, THE SAFETY ZONE HELPED OVER 600 VISITORS AND DISTRIBUTED MORE THAN 1,200 PRODUCTS LIKE SMOKE ALARMS AND CABINET LOCKS. THE INJURY PREVENTION CENTER (IPC) ALSO PROVIDES SAFE SLEEP TRAINING THROUGHOUT THE STATE. IN RESPONSE TO THE COVID PANDEMIC, IPC STAFF PIVOTED TO PROVIDING MANY OF ITS SERVICES OVER VIDEO CALLS, INCLUDING HELPING PARENTS PROPERLY INSTALL CAR SEATS. ADDITIONALLY, STAFF ADAPTED THE SAFETY BABY SHOWER MODEL TO WORK OVER ZOOM, BUT STILL REACH MANY NEW PARENTS. IN ARKANSAS, 95% OF BIRTHING HOSPITALS ARE NOW SAFE-SLEEP CERTIFIED BY CRIBS FOR KIDS, A NATIONAL STANDARD. ARKANSAS HAS ONE OF THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF CERTIFICATIONS IN THE NATION. THE INJURY PREVENTION CENTER PLAYED A LEAD ROLE IN ACCOMPLISHING THIS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH A COLLABORATIVE GROUP CONVENED BY THE ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH. AS A RESULT OF THIS, INFANTS BORN IN ARKANSAS ARE VERY LIKELY TO BE BORN AT HOSPITALS WHERE SAFE SLEEP IS DEMONSTRATED AND TAUGHT TO NEW PARENTS. ADDITIONALLY, ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL MADE FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO FOUR ORGANIZATIONS THAT ASSIST FAMILIES EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS IN CENTRAL ARKANSAS AND THE NORTHWEST ARKANSAS AREAS. THESE DONATIONS HELP COVER THE EXPENSES DUE TO INCREASED NEED OF FAMILIES EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS DURING THE PANDEMIC, AS WELL AS SPARK A PARTNERSHIP FOR FUTURE SAFETY BABY SHOWER PROGRAMS. THE ACH INJURY PREVENTION CENTER WILL WORK WITH THESE ORGANIZATIONS IN FY22 TO PROVIDE INJURY PREVENTION PROGRAMING FOR EXPECTING MOTHERS AS WELL AS YOUNG FAMILIES. THESE ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDED DORCAS HOUSE, PART OF UNION RESCUE MISSION, DESIRE HAVEN FAMILY CARE HOME, PART OF ARKANSAS BAPTIST CHILDREN'S HOME, WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIRST, AND COMPASSION HOUSE IN SPRINGDALE. (2) SOCIAL ISSUES:THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIOECONOMIC NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE 2019 CHNA SUCH AS POVERTY, HOUSING, LACK OF TRANSPORTATION, EDUCATION, AND DISCRIMINATION WERE BUNDLED IN A SOCIAL ISSUES STRATEGY IN THE 2020-2022 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. AS MENTIONED EARLIER, PART OF THE SYSTEM-WIDE WORK TO ADDRESS THE SOCIAL ISSUES OF FAMILIES IS THE CLOSED-LOOP REFERRAL SYSTEM, ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S RESOURCE CONNECT (POWERED BY FINDHELP.ORG). THIS SYSTEM WAS LAUNCHED IN APRIL 2021 FOR USE BY PATIENTS, FAMILIES, AND STAFF AT ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S NORTHWEST. IN THE FIRST THREE MONTHS OF USE (APRIL TO JUNE 2021), THE MOST COMMON SEARCHES WERE FOR FOOD PANTRIES, HELP TO PAY FOR UTILITIES, AND HELP TO PAY FOR HOUSING.

THESE ARE INTERCONNECTED NEEDS. THE 2019 ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL CHNA INCLUDED A NOTE THAT MAINTAINING A QUALITY, NUTRITIOUS, DIET IS A PROBLEM IN GENERAL FOR ARKANSANS WITH 255,000 (OR 8.9%) WHO HAVE LIMITED ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS (RWJF ANALYSIS OF USDA FOOD ENVIRONMENT ATLAS). THE WORK COVERED IN FOOD INSECURITY HAS COMPONENTS OF OBESITY PREVENTION.

MANY CHILDREN HAVE TO PREPARE SNACKS OR MEALS FOR THEMSELVES. THIS DONATION ALLOWED THE FOOD BANKS AND PANTRIES TO BUY HEALTHY, EASY-TO-PREPARE FOODS THAT ARE IDEAL FOR CHILDREN. ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S IS ONE OF THE PRIMARY PARTNERS OF THE STATEWIDE COALITION TO END OBESITY IN ARKANSAS, HEALTHY ACTIVE ARKANSAS (HAA). MARCY DODERER, PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S IS A BOARD MEMBER OF HEALTHY ACTIVE ARKANSAS, ALONG WITH 15 OTHER STATEWIDE HEALTH LEADERS LIKE THE ARKANSAS SECRETARY OF STATE AND THE CHANCELLOR OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS FOR MEDICAL SCIENCES (UAMS).

AT THE END OF FY21, ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HEALTH EDUCATORS WORKED TO IDENTIFY SCHOOLS IN AREAS OF THE STATE WITH HIGH TEEN BIRTH RATES AND HIGH RATES OF INFANT MORTALITY. DURING THE 2021-22 SCHOOL YEAR, THE PROGRAM WILL EXPAND SIGNIFICANTLY FROM FOUR SCHOOLS TO TWENTY SCHOOLS. ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL PAID FOR THE TOTAL COST OF THE MATERIALS NEEDED FOR THE 2021-2022 SCHOOL YEAR. COVERING THESE COSTS ALLOWED SCHOOLS WHO COULD NOT FINANCIALLY AFFORD TO PURCHASE THESE MATERIALS TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS VALUABLE PROGRAM.

| PART I, LINE 7: | COSTING METHOD - ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL (ACH) USES A COST ACCOUNTING (CA) SYSTEM AS THE BASIS FOR DETERMINING COST FOR ITS PATIENTS. ALL PATIENT ENCOUNTERS (INPATIENT, OUTPATIENT, ED, AMBULATORY SURGERY) ARE CAPTURED IN THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM FOR ALL PATIENTS (MEDICAID, INSURANCE, UNINSURED) WITH NO DIFFERENTIATION FOR TYPE OF INSURANCE, IF ANY. A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM IS BELOW.THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM AT ACH IS A DETAILED PROCEDURE SYSTEM. ALL SERVICES PERFORMED BY PATIENT CARE STAFF HAVE BEEN EVALUATED AS TO THE RESOURCES UTILIZED TO PROVIDE THE SERVICES INCLUDING LABOR, DIRECT MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT. IN ADDITION, OVERHEAD TYPE COSTS (BUILDING, UTILITIES, PAYROLL, ETC.) HAVE ALSO BEEN ALLOCATED TO THESE SERVICES. THE TWO COMPONENTS, DIRECT AND INDIRECT COSTS, ARE COMBINED AND REPRESENT THE TOTAL COST TO PROVIDE EACH SERVICE. THIS IS DONE ON A PROCEDURE LEVEL BASIS. AS A PATIENT IS ADMITTED AND INCURS SERVICES (X-RAYS, ROOM & BOARD, LAB, ETC.), THE APPLICABLE PROCEDURE COSTS ARE ASSIGNED TO EACH PARTICULAR PATIENT. UPON DISCHARGE, THE COSTS FROM THE INDIVIDUAL PROCEDURES THAT WERE PROVIDED TO EACH PATIENT ARE ADDED UP FOR A TOTAL COST OF PROVIDING CARE FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL PATIENT.THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM IS UPDATED ANNUALLY TO REFLECT THE CURRENT YEAR'S EXPENSES. |

THE COST OF THESE SERVICES PROVIDED TO PEDIATRIC PATIENTS IS MORE EXPENSIVE DUE TO THE SPECIALTY NATURE OF THE PATIENTS. THESE COSTS ARE GREATER THAN WHAT IS ALLOWED ON THE MEDICARE COST REPORT, AND THAT LOSS HAS BEEN REPORTED IN SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES.SIMILARLY, ACH INCURS LOSSES FROM PROVIDING PEDIATRIC LAB SERVICES TO ITS MEDICARE PATIENT POPULATION THAT ARE REIMBURSED LESS THAN COST. THOSE LOSSES ARE ALSO INCLUDED AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES. |

| PART III, LINE 2: | BAD DEBT EXPENSE REPORTED ON LINE 2 REPRESENTS UNCOLLECTIBLE PATIENT ACCOUNTS AND IS CALCULATED ON A COST BASIS. |
| PART III, LINE 4: | UNCOLLECTIBLE UNCOMPENSATED CARE GENERALLY REPRESENTS STANDARD CHARGES THAT ARE UNREALIZED DUE TO AN UNWILLINGNESS TO PAY BY THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYMENT, THEREFORE BAD DEBT. UNCOLLECTIBLE UNCOMPENSATED CARE IS REPORTED AS A DEDUCTION FROM GROSS PATIENT REVENUE.FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO DO NOT QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE, ACH RECOGNIZES REVENUE BASED ON ESTABLISHED RATES, SUBJECT TO CERTAIN DISCOUNTS AS DETERMINED BY ACH.

| PART III, LINE 8: | THE ACH MEDICARE POPULATION IS PRIMARILY RENAL PEDIATRIC PATIENTS AND ADULT BURN PATIENTS. ACH IS THE ONLY BURN CENTER IN THE STATE AND SERVES BOTH PEDIATRIC AND ADULT PATIENTS. THE COST OF PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ACUTE ADULT PATIENTS IS TYPICALLY GREATER THAN THE REIMBURSEMENT THAT MEDICARE ALLOWS ON THE MEDICARE COST REPORT. THEREFORE, THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL SHOULD BE INCLUDED AS A COMPONENT OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE THE REIMBURSEMENT IS NOT NEGOTIATED AND SERVICES CANNOT BE PROVIDED ELSEWHERE. |

THOUGH THE HOSPITAL SERVES A SMALL NUMBER OF ADULT PATIENTS WITH PEDIATRIC CHRONIC CONDITIONS OR SEVERE BURNS AND A HANDFUL OF OUT-OF-STATE PATIENTS FOR PARTICULAR HEALTH CONDITIONS, THE MAJORITY OF ITS PATIENTS ARE FROM CENTRAL ARKANSAS AND THE REMAINDER OF THE STATE. ACH DRAWS APPROXIMATELY 64.7% OF ITS OUTPATIENT POPULATION AND 60.4% OF ITS INPATIENT POPULATION FROM PULASKI COUNTY AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES, INCLUDING SALINE, FAULKNER, LONOKE, AND JEFFERSON. ACH ALSO SERVES PATIENTS FROM WHITE COUNTY IN NORTH CENTRAL ARKANSAS, GARLAND COUNTY IN EAST CENTRAL ARKANSAS, WASHINGTON AND BENTON COUNTIES IN THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE STATE, AND POPE COUNTY IN NORTHWEST CENTRAL ARKANSAS. ALTHOUGH PULASKI COUNTY IS THE HOSPITAL'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA, WITH 34.6% OF OUTPATIENT DISCHARGES AND 24.5% OF INPATIENT DISCHARGES DURING FY2021.ACH'S CURRENT PHYSICAL LOCATIONS INCLUDE A MAIN CAMPUS AND TWO OUTPATIENT CLINICS IN LITTLE ROCK AND A CLINIC IN NORTHEAST ARKANSAS. GROWING TELEMEDICINE CAPABILITIES CONNECT ACH TO OFF-CAMPUS PROVIDERS AND ALLOW REMOTE SITES ACCESS TO SPECIALTIES INCLUDING NEONATOLOGY, EMERGENCY MEDICINE, PEDIATRIC INTENSIVE CARE, BURN, GENETICS, CARDIOLOGY, AND PULMONOLOGY. ACCORDING TO U.S. CENSUS BUREAU 2020 CENSUS DATA, POPULATION TOTALS AT THAT TIME WERE 3,011,524 FOR THE STATE OF ARKANSAS AND 399,125 FOR PULASKI COUNTY. ESTIMATED 2021 CENSUS DATA INDICATED POPULATION TOTALS TO BE 3,025,891 FOR ARKANSAS. ALSO ACCORDING TO ESTIMATED 2021 CENSUS DATA, APPROXIMATELY 23.2% OF THE ARKANSAS POPULATION WAS UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE AND 6.2% WAS UNDER THE AGE OF 5. THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE FOR THE STATE OF ARKANSAS FOR CALENDAR YEAR 2020 WAS 6.1%, A SHARP INCREASE FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR. THE PER CAPITA PERSONAL INCOME FOR THE STATE OF ARKANSAS FOR 2020 WAS $27,274. THE PERCENT OF ALL PEOPLE IN POVERTY IN ARKANSAS WAS 16.2% AND THE PERCENT OF CHILDREN 18 OR YOUNGER IN POVERTY WAS 22.1%, INDICATING A SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT FROM THE PRIOR YEAR.ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL (ACH) DEFINES ITS COMMUNITY AS ALL CHILDREN WHO RESIDE IN THE STATE. CHILDREN SERVED BY ACH COME FROM DIVERSE COMMUNITIES, RANGING FROM NORTHWEST ARKANSAS' BOOMING BUSINESS INDUSTRY TO THE PERSISTENT POVERTY OF THE MISSISSIPPI DELTA. RACIAL AND ETHNIC SUBCULTURES VARY ACROSS THE STATE INCLUDING A GROWING HISPANIC POPULATION IN THE NORTH AND WEST TO A LARGER AFRICAN AMERICAN POPULATION IN THE SOUTH AND EAST. IN GENERAL, ARKANSAS CHILDREN FARE WORSE THAN OTHERS IN THE U.S. IN TERMS OF HEALTH RISK FACTORS AND OUTCOMES, HIGHLIGHTING A NEED FOR INVESTMENTS IN PUBLIC HEALTH INITIATIVES. DESPITE THE PRESENCE OF LARGE PRIVATE EMPLOYERS INCLUDING THE CORPORATE HOMES FOR WAL-MART, TYSON FOODS, AND JONES TRUCK LINES, AND A STRONG AGRICULTURAL ECONOMY, THE CONSEQUENCES OF POVERTY ARE FELT IN MOST COMMUNITIES IN THE STATE.THE ESTIMATED 696,686 ARKANSAS CHILDREN UNDER AGE 18 REPRESENTED 23.2% OF THE STATE'S TOTAL POPULATION FOR 2020. THE HISPANIC CHILD POPULATION GREW FROM 9.3% AS REPORTED IN THE 2010 CENSUS TO 12.2% AS REPORTED IN THE 2020 CENSUS. HOWEVER, THE NUMBER OF AFRICAN AMERICAN CHILDREN UNDER AGE 18 DROPPED SLIGHTLY FROM 19.3% TO 17.1%. WITH A PRIMARILY RURAL POPULATION LIVING IN MANY SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED COMMUNITIES, ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE SERVICES PRESENTS A VERY REAL CHALLENGE. ARKANSAS HAS SEEN A LARGE DECLINE IN UNINSURED CHILDREN SINCE 1990, WITH 5.9% OF CHILDREN LACKING COVERAGE AS OF 2020. ARKANSAS' "ARKIDS FIRST" HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM HAS BEEN A MAJOR FACTOR IN PROVIDING HEALTH INSURANCE FOR CHILDREN WHO MAY HAVE OTHERWISE GONE WITHOUT. ARKIDS FIRST WAS DESIGNED BY THE STATE OF ARKANSAS TO PROVIDE INSURANCE FOR CHILDREN OF WORKING FAMILIES WHO EARNED TOO MUCH FOR PUBLIC ASSISTANCE BUT COULD STILL NOT AFFORD TO PURCHASE HEALTH INSURANCE. |
