BRONSON ALSO SOUGHT PERSPECTIVE FROM MICHIGAN PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE AND W.E. UPJOHN INSTITUTE FOR EMPLOYMENT RESEARCH TO PROVIDE CONSULTANT SUPPORT FOR THE PROJECT. BECAUSE THERE ARE INHERENT LIMITATIONS AND GAPS IN SECONDARY DATA, THERE WAS A HEAVY EMPHASIS ON COMMUNITY VOICE AND INPUT TO IDENTIFY THE GREATEST NEEDS IN OUR COMMUNITIES. THE ANALYSIS IN THIS DOCUMENT REPRESENTS THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES FROM 10 FOCUS GROUPS AND 10 INTERVIEWS AND 223 COMMUNITY VOICES. THE FOLLOWING INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS WERE ENGAGED IN THE CHNA TO REPRESENT THE INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY:VAN BUREN/CASS DISTRICT HEALTH DEPARTMENTVAN BUREN COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH AUTHORITY VAN BUREN INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICTREGION IV AREA AGENCY ON AGING, INC.MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICESH.O.P.E.

BRONSON DECIDED TO MAKE THE CUT OFF FOR THE TOP 10 MAJOR TOPICS FROM FOCUS GROUPS AND KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE FINAL REPORT, THE COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS AGREED TO NOT RANK THE TOPICS, SO THAT ALL OF THESE ISSUES CAN BE ELEVATED COLLECTIVELY. THIS ALSO EMPHASIZES THAT THE NEEDS BELOW DID NOT EMERGE INDEPENDENTLY. TOP 10 TOPICS (IN NO RANKING ORDER): LAWS & POLICIES PERSONAL EXPERIENCES OF CLASSISM SOCIAL SUPPORTS PROXIMITY TO HEALTHY FOOD & FOOD SECURITY MENTAL HEALTH & SUBSTANCE ABUSE COMMUNITY CONNECTEDNESS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT & CAPACITY BUILDING HEALTHCARE SOCIAL SERVICES INCOME & POVERTY IN AN EFFORT TO HONOR THE LIVED EXPERIENCE, THE MAJORITY OF THIS REPORT REFLECTS THE PRIMARY RESULTS FROM FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY. THEREFORE, THE QUANTITATIVE DATA PRESENTED ALONGSIDE THE THEMES IS TO SUPPORT AND AUGMENT COMMUNITY VOICE. BRONSON ALSO WANTS TO RECOGNIZE THE DIFFERENCES IN THE LIVED EXPERIENCE IN RURAL AND URBAN AREAS. IN ORDER TO LOOK AT THESE DIFFERENCES, WE INCLUDED DATA AT THE COUNTY, SUB-COUNTY, AND NEIGHBORHOOD LEVEL, WHEN POSSIBLE.

AS A RESULT, THERE WAS SHARED DESIRE AND URGENCY TO BUILD COMMUNITY TRUST IN OUR 2020-2022 CHIP. AS SOUTHWEST AND SOUTHCENTRAL MICHIGAN'S ONLY CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, WE RECOGNIZE THE RESPONSIBILITY AND OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD THIS TRUST FROM THE START. AS A RESULT, BRONSON COMMITS TO ENGAGE AND BUILD TRUST WITH FAMILY SUPPORTS TO ELIMINATE RACIAL/ETHNIC DISPARITIES AMONG MOTHERS AND BABIES ACROSS OUR REGION (VAN BUREN, KALAMAZOO, CALHOUN COUNTIES). GIVEN THE EXTRAORDINARY CHALLENGE OF SUBSTANTIALLY AND MEASURABLY IMPROVING ACCESS TO CARE IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF LIMITED RESOURCES, BRONSON LEADERS AND COMMUNITY HEALTH BOARD COMMITTEE MEMBERS HAVE CHOSEN TO FOCUS ON ONE TARGETED HEALTH NEED. BRONSON CONTINUES TO COLLABORATE AND PARTNER WITH AGENCIES BETTER SUITED TO HAVE AN IMPACT IN THE OTHER AREAS IDENTIFIED BY THE CHNA. BECAUSE OF THE INTERSECTIONALITY OF THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED, BRONSON ANTICIPATES THAT IMPROVING TRUST & ACCESS TO CARE WILL IMPACT AND IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR MANY OF THE OTHER COMMUNITY NEEDS. BRONSON SOUTH HAVEN HOSPITAL PART V, SECTION B, LINE 20E: THE HOSPITAL ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL INDIVIDUALS ARE NOT EQUALLY CAPABLE OF PAYING FOR HEALTHCARE SERVICES, EITHER BY THEMSELVES OR THROUGH A THIRD PARTY INSURANCE CARRIER. THE HOSPITAL RECOGNIZES ITS RESPONSIBILITY TO OFFER CARE FOR PERSONS IN NEED, AND THEREFORE PROVIDES AND PROMOTES ACCESS TO EMERGENCY OR MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES WITHOUT REGARD TO ABILITY TO PAY.THE HOSPITAL HAS SIGNS AT ENTRANCES TO THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT THAT INFORM PATIENTS OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY AS WELL AS THE ADMITTING AND FINANCIAL COUNSELING DEPARTMENTS. THE POLICY IS ALSO ON THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE (WWW.BRONSONHEALTH.COM). THE PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY IS INCLUDED ON ALL PATIENT STATEMENTS.PATIENTS MAY REQUEST AN APPLICATION TO DETERMINE IF THEY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BY CALLING A PATIENT FINANCIAL COUNSELOR OR BRONSON'S BILLING DEPARTMENT. THE APPLICATION IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON THE HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE (WWW.BRONSONHEALTH.COM). PART V, SECTION B, LINE 20D: THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT MAKE ANY PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATIONS.

PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: 1. PHYSICAL IMPROVEMENTS AND HOUSINGA. HOSPITAL HOSPITALITY HOUSE OF SOUTHWEST MICHIGAN: HOSPITAL HOSPITALITY HOUSE OF SOUTHWEST MICHIGAN CONSTRUCTED TWO NEW HOUSES TO REPLACE ITS COSTLY AND OUTDATED HISTORIC HOUSE ON SOUTH STREET. BRONSON DONATED LAND AND MADE FINANCIAL AND IN-KIND CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE CAMPAIGN INCLUDING A $15,000 SPONSORSHIP OF ITS RECEPTION AREA BY THE BRONSON EXECUTIVE TEAM. THE BURDICK STREET HOUSE NEAR BMH OPENED IN 2020 PROVIDED 2,680 GUEST NIGHTS TO FAMILIES OF BRONSON FAMILIES, REPRESENTING 66% OF THE TOTAL GUEST NIGHTS FOR 2020.2. COALITION BUILDING A. SOUTHWEST MICHIGAN PERINATAL COLLABORATIVE: BRONSON CONTINUES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES (MDHHS) MOTHER INFANT HEALTH & EQUITY IMPROVEMENT PLAN, A STATEWIDE EFFORT TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF MOMS AND BABIES IN MICHIGAN. THROUGH THE SOUTHWEST MICHIGAN PERINATAL QUALITY IMPROVEMENT COLLABORATIVE, BRONSON STAFF WORKED WITH MULTIPLE MEMBERS ACROSS SEVEN COUNTIES TO CREATE "A LOCALLY LINKED AND COORDINATED NETWORK OF SERVICES FOR MOTHERS AND THEIR BABIES COMMITTED TO THE HIGHEST ATTAINABLE STANDARD OF HEALTH AVAILABLE IN MICHIGAN" WITH THE VISION OF "ZERO PREVENTABLE DEATHS. ZERO DISPARITIES." THIS COLLABORATIVE PROVIDES FREE VIRTUAL CHILDBIRTH EDUCATION TO MOTHERS WHERE IT IS MOST CONVENIENT FOR THEM. INSTRUCTORS EDUCATED ON LABOR, MEDICAL INTERVENTIONS, CESAREAN SECTIONS, COMFORT TECHNIQUES, AND POSTPARTUM (PHYSICAL AS WELL AS EMOTIONAL). MOTHERS HAVE ACCESS TO INSTRUCTORS VIA EMAIL AND ARE ENCOURAGED TO REACH OUT WITH QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS. LAST YEAR, 40 WOMEN FROM SEVEN COUNTIES COMPLETED THE VIRTUAL CHILDBIRTH EDUCATION SERIES.B. VAN BUREN COMMUNITY HEALTH COMMITTEE: FORMED IN 2018, THE FOCUS OF THIS COLLABORATIVE HAS BEEN TO ELEVATE COMMUNITY VOICE TO ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH DISPARITIES IN VAN BUREN COUNTY. BRONSON HEALTHCARE SERVES IN A LEADERSHIP CAPACITY AND HAS CONTINUED TO SUPPORT THE COLLABORATIVE WITH VARIOUS COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVES. IN RESPONSE THE CHNA, THE COLLABORATIVE APPLIED AND WAS REWARDED A $200,000 PLANNING GRANT FROM MICHIGAN HEALTH ENDOWMENT FUND. PROJECT WILL START IN THE FALL OF 2021. THE AGING HEALTH EQUITY & POLICY PLANNING PROJECT IS A COMMUNITY-INFORMED AND DATA-DRIVEN PLAN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS TO IDENTIFY AND ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF DISPARATE HEALTH OUTCOMES AMONG MINORITY OLDER ADULTS LIVING IN VAN BUREN COUNTY AND DEVELOP AN ACTIONABLE STRATEGIC PLAN TO BUILD COMMUNITY CAPACITY AND CONNECTEDNESS IN ORDER TO IMPACT SYSTEMS-LEVEL POLICY CHANGE THEREBY IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF OLDER ADULTS AND REDUCING HEALTH CARE COSTS.3. COMMUNITY SUPPORTA. INSURANCE ENROLLMENT OUTREACH AND SUPPORT BRONSON PROVIDED OPEN ENROLLMENT ASSISTANCE FOR THE MARKETPLACE INSURANCE FROM NOVEMBER 1, 2020 TO DECEMBER 15, 2020 WITH A CAC (CERTIFIED APPLICATION COUNSELOR). BECAUSE OF COVID AND IN-PERSON ASSISTANCE NOT BEING POSSIBLE, WE MADE CAC CONTACT INFORMATION AVAILABLE ON THE HOME PAGE FOR THE MARKETPLACE AS WELL AS TO MANY COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS. COMMUNITY MEMBERS WERE ABLE TO CALL THE CAC AND ASK QUESTIONS TO GET A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THEIR OPTIONS FOR HEALTH INSURANCE. WE ASSISTED 64 COMMUNITY MEMBERS DURING THE OPEN ENROLLMENT PERIOD.4. WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT A. VOCATIONAL INITIATIVE: BSHH WORKS WITH LOCAL SCHOOL SYSTEMS TO PROVIDE CAREER DAY PROGRAMS AND VOCATIONAL TECH SCHOOL-TO-WORK INITIATIVES AND DOES AN INSURANCE ENROLLMENT OUTREACH. B. WORKFORCE ENGAGEMENT AND DIVERSITY NEEDS: THE RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION OF STAFF CONTINUES TO BE A CHALLENGE FOR BRONSON AS WE DEAL WITH NATIONAL SHORTAGES IN VARIOUS HEALTHCARE OCCUPATIONS AND A LOW UNEMPLOYMENT RATE. THE MULTI-YEAR RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION PLAN IMPLEMENTED IN EARLY 2018 WAS DESIGNED TO MEET THESE CHALLENGES WITH THE FOLLOWING AREAS OF FOCUS:-MAINTAINED OUR AVERAGE TIME TO FILL POSITIONS OF 36 DAYS -ENGAGED IN CAREER PREPARATION THROUGH SCHOOL AND PROFESSIONAL PARTNERSHIPS (COMPASS HIGH SCHOOLCNA PROGRAM, WOMEN'S CO-OP, MICHIGAN REHABILITATION SERVICES, YOUTH OPPORTUNITIES UNLIMITED, MICHIGAN CAREER & TECHNICAL INSTITUTE)-EXPANDED DIGITAL AND SOCIAL MEDIA RECRUITMENT TACTICS (E.G. HANDSHAKE ALLOWS US TO BE INTENTIONAL WITH ADVERTISING POSITIONS/EVENTS AT HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES) -CONTINUED TO HOST RECRUITMENT EVENTS SUCH AS TEST DRIVES AND OPEN INTERVIEW/OPEN HOUSES FOR RELEVANT OPENINGS AT TARGETED LOCATIONS AS WELL AS COMMUNITY AGENCIES-USED RETENTION AND SIGN ON BONUSES FOR HARD TO FILL POSITIONS -ENHANCED INTERNAL CAREER DEVELOPMENT PATHWAYS 5. OTHER A. COVID-19 RESPONSE: IT IS HARD TO IDENTIFY ANY BRONSON DEPARTMENT OR STAFF MEMBER NOT IMPACTED PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, PERSONALLY, PROFESSIONALLY OR FINANCIALLY BY THE COVID PANDEMIC. WE FACED WORKFORCE-RELATED ISSUES LIKE EVERY EMPLOYER, YET, AS THE REGION'S LARGEST HEALTHCARE PROVIDER, OUR COMMUNITIES WERE DEPENDING ON US TO CARE FOR PATIENTS WITH AND WITHOUT COVID. BRONSON HAS MANAGED AT LEAST SEVEN MAJOR CYCLES (AND STILL COUNTING) OF "PREPARE-RESPOND-IMPROVE-RECOVER" SINCE THE GOVERNOR ISSUED EXECUTIVE ORDER (EO) 2020-4, DECLARING A STATE OF EMERGENCY ON MARCH 10, 2020. MANY OF THESE CYCLES OCCURRED SIMULTANEOUSLY. WE MOBILIZED OUR INCIDENT COMMAND (IC) AND INCIDENT COMMAND CLINICAL CONSULTANTS (ICCC) ON MARCH 12 TO GUIDE THE SYSTEM'S RESPONSE TO THE COVID PANDEMIC. AS OF JANUARY 31, 2021, IC HAD BEEN OPEN FOR 325 DAYS AND REMAINS OPEN TODAY.B. COVID-19 TESTING AND SCREENING: IN ORDER TO RESPOND TO THE URGENT NEED FOR COVID TESTING, NEW TESTING PLATFORMS NEEDED TO BE SET UP IN OUR CORE LABORATORY. FOUR DIFFERENT PLATFORMS WERE PROCURED TO HANDLE THE INCREASED VOLUME OF TESTING, ALL WHILE THE LABORATORY WAS RELOCATING TO ITS NEW BUILDING. SINCE TESTING SUPPLIES WERE NOT CONSISTENLY AVAILABLE, WE ALSO NEEDED TO SOURCE A DIVERSE GROUP OF SUPPLIERS. WE EXPENDED $500,000 TO SECURE THE EQUIPMENT NEEDED TO TEST FOR THE VIRUS, WITH ANOTHER $3M FOR SUPPLIES AND AN ADDITIONAL $5.7M IN OUTSOURCED TESTING COSTS. TO COLLECT COVID SAMPLES FOR TESTING, FOUR CURBSIDE TESTING LOCATIONS WERE SET UP ACROSS OUR SYSTEM AND SUPPORTED BY 11 ADDITIONAL FTES. APPROXIMATELY 140,000 SAMPLES WERE OBTAINED THROUGH THESE COLLECTION SITES, WITH 13,131 RESULTING POSITIVE. WE CREATED A COVID TESTING DASHBOARD SO WE COULD SEE AND TREND TESTING VOLUMES AND RESULTS ON A DAILY BASIS BY LOCATION, RACE, AGE AND PAYER IN REAL TIME. THE DYNAMIC AND INTERACTIVE NATURE OF THE DASHBOARD ALLOWED US TO SEE DISPARITIES AND ADDRESS THE RAPIDLY EMERGING QUESTIONS THROUGH THE EARLY AND MIDDLE PART OF THE PANDEMIC. ON MARCH 13, THE GOVERNOR ISSUED AN EO THAT REQUIRED US TO SET UP SCREENING FOR PATIENTS AND VISITORS AT LIMITED ENTRANCES AT ALL FOUR HOSPITALS. WE QUICKLY DEVELOPED A SCREENER WORKFORCE (CONSISTING OF REDEPLOYED EMPLOYEES, LOW CENSUS STAFF AND EMPLOYEE VOLUNTEERS) TO STAFF THE ENTRANCES. WE DEVOTED 55,644 HOURS TO THIS EFFORT AND 706,000 EMPLOYEES SCREENED THEMSELVES UTILIZING A NEW ONLINE TOOL THAT BRONSON DEPLOYED IN MARCH. C. COVID-19 PPE: A MAJOR CHALLENGE DURING 2020 WAS ACQUIRING ADEQUATE SUPPLIES OF PPE TO CARE FOR OUR PATIENTS SAFELY. PPE UTILIZATION INCREASED IN ALMOST EVERY AREA. FOR EXAMPLE, USE OF EXAM ISOLATION GOWNS INCREASED BY 250,000, ISOLATION MASK USAGE INCREASED BY 2 MILLION, GLOVE USAGE INCREASED BY 7 MILLION PAIRS. IN ORDER TO SOURCE THESE CRITICAL PPE SUPPLIES DURING AN UNPRECEDENTED GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN SHORTAGE, WE INCREASED OUR SUPPLIERS FROM SIX IN 2019 TO 42 IN 2020. WE ALSO DEVELOPED NEW SUPPLY CHAIN PARTNERSHIPS FOR GOWNS, MASKS AND FACE SHIELDS WITH U.S. AND MICHIGAN-BASED MANUFACTURERS. OUR TOTAL SPEND FOR PPE INCREASED 224% FROM 2019 TO $1.54M. WE RECEIVED GENEROUS DONATIONS OF PPE FROM OUR COMMUNITY, WHICH HELPED ALLEVIATE WHAT WOULD HAVE OTHERWISE BEEN A SEVERE SHORTAGE OF PPE.D. COVID-19 STAFF SUPPORT: THE IMPACT AND SIGNIFICANT STRESS THE PANDEMIC HAS HAD ON OUR STAFF IS IMMEASURABLE. MANY PICKED UP EXTRAS SHIFTS, WERE QUARANTINED AWAY FROM THEIR FAMILIES, TOOK LIMITED VACATION TIME, VOLUNTEERED FOR SCREENING AND VACCINES, WERE FURLOUGHED, OR PROVIDED SUPPORT FOR PATIENTS WHOSE OWN FAMILIES WERE NOT ALLOWED TO VISIT. AT THE SAME TIME, MANY EMPLOYEES WERE ALSO FACING THEIR CHILDREN'S SCHOOLS SHIFTING TO VIRTUAL LEARNING OR HAD A FAMILY EMPLOYMENT OR HEALTH CRISIS. PART III, LINE 2: UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS ARE WRITEN OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS IN THE PERIOD THEY ARE DETERMINED TO BE UNCOLLECTIBLE. BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS DISCLOSED BASED ON GROSS CHARGES. PART III, LINE 3: BAD DEBT WRITEOFFS SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING A PORTION OF SERVICES WITHOUT PAYMENT. THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSES ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY WAS ESTIMATED BY REVIEWING THE BAD DEBT DETAIL FOR A SPECIFIC WRITE-OFF CODE. PART III, LINE 4: ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FOR PATIENTS, INSURANCE COMPANIES, AND GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES ARE BASED ON GROSS CHARGES, REDUCED BY EXPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS PROVIDED TO THIRD-PARTY PAYORS, DISCOUNTS PROVIDED TO QUALIFYING INDIVIDUALS AS PART OF OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, AND IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS PROVIDED PRIMARILY TO SELF-PAY PATIENTS. ESTIMATES FOR EXPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS ARE BASED ON PROVIDER CONTRACTS, PAYMENT TERMS FOR RELEVANT PROSPECTIVE PAYMENT SYSTEMS, AND HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE ADJUSTED FOR ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND OTHER TRENDS AFFECTING THE HOSPITAL'S ABILITY TO COLLECT OUTSTANDING AMOUNTS.
