Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 5: Baystate Wing is a member of the Coalition of Western Massachusetts Hospitals/Insurer (Coalition). The Coalition is a partnership between eight non-profit hospitals/insurer in western Massachusetts: Baystate Medical Center, Baystate Franklin Medical Center, Baystate Noble Hospital, Baystate Wing Hospital, Cooley Dickinson Hospital, Mercy Medical Center (a member of Trinity Health New England), Shriners Hospitals for Children Springfield, and Health New England, a local health insurer whose service areas covers the four counties of western Massachusetts. The Coalition formed in 2012 to bring hospitals within western Massachusetts together to share resources and work in partnership to conduct their triennial community health needs assessments (CHNAs) and address regional needs. The input of the community and other important regional stakeholders was an important part of the CHNA process. A wide range of stakeholders took part in the 2019 CHNA process, including local and regional public health and health departments, other local municipal agencies, diverse community-based organizations, advocacy organizations, healthcare providers, and community residents. These stakeholders provided input through a CHNA Regional Advisory Council (RAC), focus groups, key informant interviews, community conversations, and community chats. Additionally, community forums were conducted towards the end of the CHNA process to vet preliminary findings with community members. Please refer to the hospitals' CHNA Appendix I for a complete listing of public health, community representatives, and other stakeholders included in the process. The CHNA RAC included representatives from each Coalition member hospital/insurer as well as public health and community stakeholders from each hospital service area. Stakeholders on the RAC included local and regional public health and health department representatives; representatives from local and regional organizations serving or representing medically underserved, low-income or populations of color; and individuals from organizations that represent the broad interests of the community. The Coalition conducted a stakeholder analysis to ensure geographic, sector (e.g. schools, community service organizations, healthcare providers, public health, and housing), and racial/ethnic diversity of RAC. The RAC met in workgroups (Data and Reports, Engagement and Dissemination, and Health Equity) to guide the consultants in the process of conducting the CHNA, and prioritizing community health needs, CHNA findings, and dissemination of information. Assessment methods and findings were modified based on the RAC's feedback. The RAC consisted of 31 participants, including Coalition members and consultants. The RAC met monthly from September 2018 through June 2019. Key informant interviews and focus groups were conducted to gather information used to identify priority health needs and engage the community. Key informant interviews were conducted with health care providers, health care administrators, local and regional public health officials, and local leaders that represent the interests of the community or that serve medically underserved, low-income, or populations of color in the service area. Interviews with local and regional public health officials identified priority health areas and community factors that contribute to health needs. Focus group participants included community organization representatives, community members (low-income, people of color, and others), and other community stakeholders. Topics and populations included: substance use, transgender health, older adults, youth, mental health, cancer care, gun violence, and rural food access. Key informant interviews and focus groups were conducted from February 2019 through March 2019. Focus groups and key informant interviews engaged residents primarily in Hampden County, but also across the region. The CHNA also used qualitative data from other hospital service areas as appropriate. Baystate Health held five Community Conversations and over 70 Community Chats. Community Conversations were larger bidirectional information-sharing meetings conducted for each Baystate hospital service area and one done in Spanish in Springfield. For Community Chats, RAC members brought information about the CHNA and gathered priorities in regular meetings of service providers, community-based organizations, and hospital clinical staff and administrators. While these outreach efforts were spearheaded by Baystate Health, the engagement and findings benefitted all Coalition member hospitals/insurer. Conversations and Chats were held from January 2019 through April 2019 and engaged approximately 900 residents. Five Community Forums were held upon completion of this report to share and validate the findings. Two were offered in Spanish with approximately 100 individuals representing the broad interests of the community; participants in the focus groups
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 6a: The Coalition of Western MA Hospitals/Insurer (Coalition) is a partnership between eight non-profit hospitals/insurer in western Massachusetts: Baystate Medical Center, Baystate Franklin Medical Center, Baystate Noble Hospital, Baystate Wing Hospital, Cooley Dickinson Hospital, Mercy Medical Center (a member of Trinity Health New England), Shriners Hospitals for Children Springfield, and Health New England, a local health insurer whose service area covers the four counties of western Massachusetts. The Coalition formed in 2012 to bring hospitals within western Massachusetts together to share resources and work in partnership to conduct their triennial CHNAs and address regional needs.
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 6b: The Coalition of Western MA Hospitals/ Insurer engaged the Public Health Institute of Western MA (PHIWM), based in Springfield, MA, as the lead consultant to conduct the CHNAs. PHIWM was supported by three other consultant teams: Community Health Solutions (CES), based in Northampton, MA; Franklin Regional Council of Governments (FRCOG), based in Greenfield, MA; and Pioneer Valley Planning Commission (PVPC), based in Springfield, MA. The Coalition includes Health New England, a local health insurer whose service area covers the four counties of western Massachusetts.
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 7d: The hospital facility made its CHNA report widely available to the public via an email distribution, with links to the hospital's website, to community partners and organizations. In addition, the CHNA reports have informed the implementation of county wide community health improvement plans in Franklin and Hampden counties. Hospital and CHNA consultant staff have been invited to various venues and audiences to present on the CHNA process and key findings. The Coalition created a Facebook page, "Western MA CHNA", as a means to communicate with and engage the community throughout the CHNA process. All Coalition CHNAs were posted and shared via this Facebook page.
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 11: The hospital facility anticipates health needs and available resources may change, therefore, a flexible approach was adopted in the development of its implementation strategy. For example, certain community health needs may become more pronounced and require changes to the initiatives identified by the hospital in the Strategy. Other community organizations may address certain needs, indicating that the hospital's strategies should be refocused on alternative community health needs or assume a different focus on the needs identified in the 2019 CHNA.The hospital facility views a community benefits implementation strategy as a "LIVING" document. Baystate hospitals have adopted the term Strategic Implementation Plan (SIP), in lieu of Implementation Strategy. The significant health needs to be addressed by the hospital are referred to as priority focus areas in the SIP. Due to the evolving climate in health care, the hospital's financial health year to year remains unknown; therefore hospital resources and inputs may increase, decrease, or need to be modified. The hospital's SIP work plan provides an opportunity for the hospital to be strategic and focused, yet flexible in its community health planning and improvement efforts. The hospital facility, in partnership with its Community Benefits Advisory Council reviews the work plans quarterly and the hospital updates the work plans on the hospital website annually. No health care system or hospital facility can address all the significant health need present in its community. The hospital facility is committed to adhering to its mission and remaining financially healthy so that it can continue to enhance its clinical excellence and patient experience, as well as address significant health needs identified in the CHNA. The hospital facility's implementation strategy does not explicitly address all significant community health needs identified in the 2019 CHNA due to: 1. limited resources (time, talent, and treasure), 2. the hospital is a stakeholder and/or partner in addressing the need directly or indirectly through other hospital clinical and service lines and community partnerships, 3. other hospitals or community organizations within the service area are addressing the need; 4. The need falls outside of the hospital's mission or limited resource capacity. Significant health needs, referred to by the hospital as priority focus areas, being addressed by the hospital include, social environment, mental health and substance use, domestic violence, basic needs. Significant health needs not to be addressed include, built environment, housing, care coordination, culturally sensitive care, health literacy, and language barriers, insurance and healthcare care related challenges, limited providers, transportation, Alzheimer's disease, chronic diseases, infant and perinatal health, and sexual health.
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 13b: All patients with account balances (other than balances resulting from co-payments or deductibles on insured services) are eligible to receive a prompt pay discount of 20% of the balance for claims paid in full at time of service or within 60 days of the date of the initial bill. Patients must request the discount. The discount cannot be combined with the Hospital Supplemental Financial Assistance Program.Baystate Wing Hospital offers a co-payment discount program for patients receiving services in the emergency department of the hospital. This discount program is available to all hospital emergency department patients with co-payment obligations under private or government health insurance (unless prohibited by law or a Baystate Wing Hospital contract with a private insurer or government authority). These patients may reduce the otherwise applicable emergency department service co-payment by 10% if the patient elects to pay the co-payment at the conclusion of the patient's emergency department visit.
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 15e: Baystate Wing Hospital provides patients with information about the availability of State Programs, Health Safety Net, or the Hospital Supplemental Financial Assistance Program which may cover all or some of their unpaid Baystate Wing Hospital bills as well as about Baystate Wing Hospital discount programs. For those patients who request such assistance, the hospital assists patients by screening them for eligibility in available State Programs and assisting them in applying for such programs. When applicable, Baystate Wing Hospital may also assist patients in applying for coverage of services as a Medical Hardship based on the patient's documented income and allowable medical expenses.Baystate Wing Hospital have contracted with the Executive Office of Health and Human Services and the Commonwealth Health Insurance Connector Authority to serve as a Certified Application Counselor Organization.As a Certified Application Counselor (CAC), appropriate staff will inform a patient of the functions and responsibility of a CAC, seek that the patient sign a Certified Application Counselor Designation Form, and assist the patient in finding applicable financial assistance.
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 16j: Paper copies of our financial assistance policy (FAP) and the FAP application, and a FAP plain language summary as well as the Billing and Collections Policy are available upon request, in English, Spanish, and Russian, and free of charge in the hospital and by mail, as well as the hospital facilities website. https://www.baystatehealth.org/patients/billing-and-financial-assistance.

Additional efforts will include promotion via our hospitals various social media platforms and providing printed materials to key social service agencies and educating their staff that work with low income populations in the hospitals service area.
Baystate Wing Hospital CorporationPart V, Section B, Line 20e: We rely on Medicaid for presumptive eligibility determinations. We would perform these actions if needed but did not have any patient during the tax year where an ECA was initiated.

Part I, Line 6a:The hospital facility files an annual community benefits report electronically with the Massachusetts Office of the Attorney General's via their website at https://www.mass.gov/nonprofit-hospital-and-hmo-community-benefits. The hospital facility's annual community benefits report is also published on the Baystate Health website at https://www.baystatehealth.org/about-us/community-programs/ community-benefits/community-health-needs-assessment. The hospital's community benefits report provides the Office of the Attorney General and the general public important information about how the hospital partners with the community to identify and address health needs.
Part I, Line 7:Line 7a (Charity Care) - community benefit expense was calculated by applying the ratio of patient care cost to charges, calculated on Worksheet 2, against total charity care gross patient charges from the audited financial statements.Line 7b (Unreimbursed Medicaid) - community benefit expense was derived using the organization's cost accounting system, which takes into account all hospital inpatients, outpatients and emergency room patients for whom services were provided and covered under Medicaid and Medicaid managed care plans.Line 7c (Other Means-Tested Programs) - community benefit expense was derived using the organization's cost accounting system, which takes into account all hospital inpatients, outpatients and emergency room patients for whom services were provided and covered under other means-tested government programs.Line 7e (Community Health Improvement Services & Benefit Operations) - Community Health Improvement Services calculations are derived from direct and indirect costs associated with community benefit activities that are aligned with the hospital's 2013 community health needs assessment. These activities are carried out to improve community health and wellness and extend beyond patient care, beyond the walls of the hospital.Community Benefit Operations calculations are derived from costs associated with assigned staff and community health needs and/or assets assessment, as well as other costs associated with community benefit strategy and operations.Line 7g (Subsidized Programs) - community benefit expense was derived using the organization's cost accounting system. The expense relates to inpatient behavioral health and to specific outpatient programs. There are no costs attributable to physician clinics reported as subsidized health services in Part I, line 7g.
Part I, Ln 7 Col(f):In fiscal year 2020, the organization adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). The update resulted in changes in the presentation and disclosure of revenue primarily related to uninsured and underinsured patients. Under ASU 2014-09 the estimated uncollectible amounts due from these patients are generally considered implicit price concessions that are a direct reduction to net operating revenues. In 2020, these implicit prices concessions, formerly known as provision for bad debts, totaled $3,436,787 and is not included in total expenses reported in Part IX, Line 25, column (A) for the purpose of calculating the percentages in Part 1, Line 7, column (f).
Part II, Community Building Activities:The following description is not quantified specifically in Part II of Schedule H.The hospital facility is committed to creating healthier communities and understands that many state and federally mandated community benefit programs and services are not sufficient to address ethnic, racial and economic health disparities and inequities. The hospital embraces the traditional definition of "health" to include economic opportunity, affordable housing, quality education, safe neighborhoods, food security, social and racial justice, and the arts/culture - all elements that are needed for individuals, families and communities to thrive. The hospital provides many valuable services, resources, programs and financial support - beyond the walls of the hospital and into the communities and homes of the people it serves; including grants and sponsorship of local community-based organizations and the involvement of Baystate Health leadership with various community boards that align with its mission.The hospital facility paid dues to the Quaboag Hills Chamber of Commerce totaling $1,600. The hospital participates in the Chamber as it is one of the largest local employers in our service area. The Chamber and its members coordinate activities toward a common purpose of sustainability and economic growth for the region.
Part III, Line 4:The cost of bad debts reported in Part III, line 2 was calculated by applying a ratio of cost to charges (based on the organization's cost accounting system including all hospital inpatients and outpatients) against implicit price concessions as reflected in the audited financial statements. The portion of bad debt that reasonably could be attributable to patients who may qualify for financial assistance under the hospital's charity care program (reported in Part III line 3) was calculated by applying the percentage of bad debts by zip code (for which the average household income for each zip code is less than 150% of the federal poverty level) to the total cost of bad debt reported in Part III line 2. Since this portion of bad debt is attributable to patients residing in an area where the average income is less than 150% of the Federal poverty level, it is highly likely these patients would have qualified for the organization's charity care program had they applied. For this reason, we believe the amount, totaling $89,958, should be treated as community benefit expense in Part I. As noted above, the organization adopted Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 effective October 1, 2018, which changed the way entities report and disclose certain financial information including implicit price concession (formerly the provision for bad debts). See audited financial statements, footnote #2 (Significant Accounting Policies) on pages 15 under the caption "Net Patient Service Revenue and Page 17 under the caption "Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements" for a description of the organization's reporting of its implicit price concessions (formerly provision for bad debts).If a patient is determined eligible for financial assistance, the appropriate adjustment is made to the patient account based on their income level. Once the necessary approvals are obtained, it then flows to the general ledger. Patients applying for a prompt payment discount will have this allowance entered after agreed upon payment is received.
Part III, Line 8:Line 6 included all Medicare allowable costs as calculated in Worksheets D-1 Part II (inpatient and inpatient psych), D Part V (outpatient) and E Part A (organ acquisition) of the hospital's 2020 Medicare cost report, net of Medicare costs reported in Part I, line 7.g, and based on Medicare costing principles. There is no shortfall reported on line 7.
Part III, Line 9b:For patients who are known to qualify for Charity Care or Financial Assistance: The patient may have requested assistance up front at time of service with a Financial Counselor or the Patient could have asked for assistance after receiving their bill by contacting our Patient Billing Services Representatives. The Financial Counselor will assist the patient in applying for the appropriate type of assistance based on their income and circumstances. Once approved for a State Medicaid or other program, all billing and collection activity will stop (except for required co-payments or deductibles).For all other patients, our statements contain information regarding how to apply for financial assistance. Notices concerning availability for assistance are also posted at patient care sites.
Part VI, Line 2:The Baystate Board Governance Committee convenes semi-annually and is charged with advocating for community benefits at the board level and throughout the health system and broader community; aligning the system's four (4) hospital-specific community benefits implementation strategies with the health system's strategic plan; review of CHNA data; approval of a community benefits mission statement and health priorities; review impacts of community benefits activities and investments; and ensure Baystate Health's community benefits are in compliance with guidelines established by the MA Attorney General and IRS. Annually, the Office of Government and Community Relations provides updates to the Baystate Board of Trustees, Baystate President's Cabinet, and other Baystate leadership teams, as requested. The hospital Community Benefits Advisory Council (CBAC) continues to bring a community lens and filter for the hospital's health priorities. The CBAC provides a community perspective on how to increase wellness and resilience opportunities for optimal health for an entire population; guidance in matching hospital resources to community resources, thus making the most of what is possible with the goal to improve health status and quality of life; and policy advocacy to assure and restore health equity by targeting resources for residents. Participants on the hospital CBAC represent constituencies and communities served by the hospital. CBAC members are responsible for reviewing community needs assessment data and use this analysis as a foundation for providing the hospital with input on its community benefits planning process.Baystate Health Patient & Family Advisory Council (PFAC) members provided valuable input in enhancing care at Baystate Health based on the knowledge of the unique needs of patients and families. Information from PFAC provides hospital leadership with an enhanced understanding of how to improve quality, program development, service excellence, communications, patient safety, facility design, patient and family education, patient and family satisfaction, and loyalty. PFAC is made up of a diverse group of patients, family members, and community members who represent the collective voice of the patients and families at Baystate Medical Center, Baystate Children's Hospital, Baystate Franklin Medical Center, Baystate Noble Hospital, Baystate Mary Lane Outpatient Center, Baystate Wing Hospital, the D'Amour Center for Cancer Care, and the BeHealthy Accountable Care Organization (ACO) in Baystate managed health centers.
Part VI, Line 3:The hospital is committed to ensuring that patients in its community have access to quality health care services with fairness and respect without regard to the patients' ability to pay. The hospital recognizes the cost of necessary health care services can impose a significant financial burden on patients who are uninsured or underinsured, and acts affirmatively to lessen that burden by offering eligible patients the opportunity to apply for free or reduced cost services. The hospital not only offers free and reduced cost care as required by law, but has also voluntarily established discount and financial assistance programs that provide additional free and reduced cost care to more patients residing within the communities served by the hospital.The hospital recognizes the billing and collection process can be bewildering and burdensome for patients and has implemented procedures to make the process understandable for patients; to inform patients about discount and financial assistance options; and to ensure that patients are not subject to aggressive collection activities. Consistent with its patient commitment, the hospital is required to maintain a financial assistance policy and a billing and collection policy that reflects its financial assistance options and patient billing and collection procedures and complies with applicable federal and state laws and regulations.The hospital has financial counselors available to help patients apply for financial assistance programs that may cover unpaid hospital bills, including a variety of federal and state programs as well as financial assistance through the hospital. Hospital financial counselors have all been trained and certified by the state as Certified Account Counselors to assist patients in applying for available federal and state programs. The hospital is committed to ensuring that patients or prospective patients in the community are aware of financial assistance programs. For uninsured or underinsured patients, the hospital will assist in applying for available financial assistance programs. The hospital notifies patients of the availability of assistance in both the initial bill sent to patients, as well as in general notices posted throughout the hospital.When applicable, the hospital also assists patients in applying for coverage of services as a Medical Hardship based on the patient's documented income and allowable medical expenses. The hospital provides, upon request, specific information about the eligibility process to be a Low Income Patient under either the Massachusetts Health Safety Net Program or additional assistance for patients who are low income through Baystate's own internal financial assistance program. The hospital also notifies patients about available payment plans based on their family size and income. Baystate Health's Financial Assistance Policy and Billing and Collection Policy are posted on the baystatehealth.org website at https://www.baystatehealth.org/patients/billing-and-financial-assistance. The goal of posting the Financial Assistance Policy and the Billing and Collection Policy is to ensure that patients or prospective patients in the community are aware of the financial assistance programs. Signs about the availability of financial assistance programs at the hospital are translated into Spanish and Russian as these languages are primarily spoken by more than 1,000 or 1% of the residents in the hospital's service area. Signs are large and clearly visible. Hospital signs are 8.5 x 11 inches and the header print font is 24 points. Notice of availability of Financial Assistance Programs are posted in the following locations: inpatient, clinic, emergency department admissions and/or registration areas, central admission/registration area, patient financial counselor areas, and business office areas that are open to patients.
Part VI, Line 4:The following "community information" description is extracted from the hospital's 2019 CHNA. Baystate Wing Hospital (Baystate Wing) is a 74-bed facility located in Palmer, Massachusetts helping people in a service area that includes three counties Hampden, Hampshire, and Worcester. The hospital services approximately 120,000 residents in seventeen towns, with over half of this population living in Belchertown, Ludlow, Palmer, Wilbraham, and Ware. Baystate Wing offers a broad range of medical, surgical, and psychiatric services. The expanded Emergency Department (ED) provides comprehensive emergency services for adults and children around the clock. The ED includes a six bed critical care unit and is a primary stroke center designated by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH). Baystate Wing offers comprehensive, personalized, and high-quality inpatient and outpatient behavioral health and addiction treatment services through the Griswold Behavioral Health Center and the Center for Geriatric Psychiatry.The Baystate Wing service area overlaps to a great degree the region that is also known as the Quaboag Hills. The region is 90 miles west of Boston, 30 miles northeast of Springfield and 30 miles west of Worcester, representing 17 communities in a 440-square mile region in west-central Massachusetts with a total population of 122,033. Numerous small, rural towns make up the region (Belchertown, Brimfield, Brookfield, East Brookfield, Hampden, Hardwick, Holland, Ludlow, Monson, New Braintree, North Brookfield, Palmer, Spencer, Wales, Ware, Warren, West Brookfield, and Wilbraham) which crosses three county lines (Hampden, Hampshire, and Worcester Counties).The towns are comprised of densely populated former mill villages surrounded by rural areas and developing commuter neighborhoods.Thirteen of the 17 towns have populations of less than 10,000 people living in them, and all 17 towns meet the state definition of "rural", defined as "a municipality in which there are fewer than 500 people per square mile." Transportation is extremely limited. Demographically, the service area is overwhelmingly white (more than 96%) with 2% Latino and less than 1% black or Asian. However recent trends show growing numbers of new immigrants and Spanish-speaking residents. For example, the town of Ware and the Quaboag Regional Schools each have a student body that is 6% Latino and Palmer students are 8% Latino. The region has been characterized by chronic high unemployment, historically 1 to 2 points above the state average. Education levels in the Quaboag Hills are significantly lower than the average in Massachusetts. In the 2018 Robert Wood Johnson Foundation County Health Rankings, Hampden County ranked last (14th of 14 counties), Worcester County ranks 9th, and Hampshire County ranks 5th. Economically, the region has been hard-hit by lost manufacturing jobs and recession. In four of the six school districts, over 33% of students are eligible for reduced price/free lunch. An average of 8% of families live below the poverty level; in Ware, Warren, and Hardwick, over 20% of families live in poverty. The Worcester Community Action Council, Inc.'s Community Action Plan 2015-2017 ranked the town of Hardwick as one of the five towns in Worcester County with the highest individual, childhood, and family poverty rates. Many families living in poverty are headed by single females. The town of Ware (pop. 9,872) serves as the region's economic and service "hub" with the broadest network of commercial entities, service providers, employers, and health care providers. In Hampden County, 16% of the population has a disability compared to the state prevalence of 12%. In Hampshire County, 10% of the population has a disability. Disability prevalence in Ware and Palmer is higher than the state at 16% and 17%, respectively. People with disabilities tend to have higher rates of poverty and lower levels of education. In Hampden County, poverty rates among those with a disability (27%) were more than double than those among people without a disability (12%). Similarly, 30% of the disabled population did not have a high school diploma compared to 11% among those without a disability (U.S. Census Bureau, ACS, 2013-2017).
Part VI, Line 5:The hospital facility has a responsibility to respond to health care needs unsupported by government programs. In exchange for this responsibility, the hospital qualifies for tax-exempt status under 501(c)(3). However, providing hospital care alone is not enough to qualify for tax-exempt status. Hospitals also must operate in the public interest and provide programs that benefit the community.The charitable mission of the hospital facility, a member hospital of Baystate Health, is to improve the health of the people in our communities every day, with quality and compassion. The hospital's Community Benefits Mission is to reduce health disparities, promote community wellness, and improve access to care for vulnerable populations. The hospital is committed to meeting the identified health and wellness needs of constituencies and communities served through the combined efforts of Baystate Health's member organizations, affiliated providers, and community partners.The hospital facility meets all of the factors required of medical facilities in order to maintain tax exemption, as first described in Revenue Ruling 69-545. In support of patient care and the medical needs of the communities served by the hospital, medical staff membership and privileges are extended to all qualified physicians and practitioners in western Massachusetts who meet the requirements for credentialing and clinical privileges, whether employed by a related Baystate Health or community-based entity. The hospital's emergency department is open to all in need of care and services; no one requiring emergency care is denied treatment. In addition, surplus funds from operations are generally applied, as permitted, to the following: improvements in patient care, expansion and renovation of existing facilities, purchase and replacement of equipment, debt service, expenses associated with training of physicians and other health care professionals, professional development of medical and other clinical staff, and the support of scientific, translational, and clinical research.Baystate Health's volunteer Board of Trustees, the governing body of the organization and its affiliates, is comprised of the President and Chief Executive Officer of Baystate Health and up to twenty-two (22) other elected trustees who are representative of the broad range of interests which exist in the communities served by Baystate Health and its affiliates. The Governance Committee oversees the nomination of trustees and submits recommendations to the Board of Trustees for membership on the various board committees. In considering nominations or recommendations for trustees, directors, committee members, or officers, the Governance Committee selects nominees who are representative of the various and diverse constituencies served by Baystate Health and its affiliates. In particular the Committee nominates persons who are representative of the community consumer interests of the various neighborhoods and localities which are served by Baystate Health and its affiliates in the carrying out of and pursuant to the charitable mission of the Baystate Health and its affiliates.Please refer to the section above in line 2 for additional examples of the hospital's responsiveness to the community and opportunities for community involvement: including the Board of Trustees' Governance Committee, Community Benefits Advisory Council, and Community Health Needs Assessment.
Part VI, Line 6:Baystate Health is a not-for-profit integrated healthcare system serving over 800,000 people throughout western Massachusetts. Nationally recognized as a leader in healthcare quality and safety, Baystate Health has more than 12,000 employees and serves a diverse population of patients at its teaching hospital, Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, as well as at Baystate Children's Hospital, its three community hospitals, several urban health centers, home care and hospice services, and a network of over 80 medical practices.

The hospital services approximately 120,000 residents in seventeen towns, with over half of this population living in Belchertown, Ludlow, Palmer, Wilbraham, and Ware. We offer a broad range of medical, surgical, and psychiatric services. Our expanded Emergency Department (ED) provides comprehensive emergency services for adults and children around the clock. The emergency department includes a six bed critical care unit and is a primary stroke center designated by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH). Our hospital offers comprehensive, personalized, and high-quality inpatient and outpatient behavioral health and addiction treatment services through the Griswold Behavioral Health Center and the Center for Geriatric Psychiatry.Baystate Medical Practices (BMP) is a multi-specialty group of over 1,100 physicians and advanced practice clinicians in primary care, specialty, and surgical disciplines with more than 100 practices across 85 locations. BMP offers patient-centered care, including: family practice, internal medicine and pediatric providers, community health centers, urgent care clinics, and suburban and rural practices. Many sites are designated Patient Centered Medical Homes, signifying our emphasis on communication with patients, collaboration among providers, and continuity of care. BMP's policy is to provide care to any patient in need of medical care, regardless of the patient's ability to pay for such care. Dependent upon the patient's financial capability to pay and consistent with Baystate Health and BMP policies, BMP may provide such care free of charge or at amounts below its normal charges. In tax year 2019 BMP provided $1,274,330 in charity care. In addition to the charity care provided to patients, BMP's physicians participate in many and varied ongoing community outreach initiatives in the areas of education, employment, safety, and health. BMP has also taken a leadership role in strengthening the health of disadvantaged citizens in surrounding communities including specific focus on HIV/AIDS and by providing physician staffing for three community-based health centers through Baystate Medical. BMP faculty published 172 peer-reviewed articles in tax year 2018, acquiring and disseminating new knowledge to a broad audience. These original research findings will improve the care delivered to patients.Visiting Nurse Association and Hospice of Western New England provides the highest quality of care to patients and families, primarily in their homes. It is a comprehensive home health, hospice, and palliative care agency with a staff of over 250 managing more than140,000 visits annually.

Form 990, Schedule H, Part VI, Line 6 continuedIn addition to its 12,000 employees, Baystate Health has medical staff, nurses, residents and fellows, medical students, nursing students, and allied health students who gain comprehensive medical education during the year. A recognized leader in educational innovation, Baystate Health has been training doctors since 1914. In tax year 2019, over 315 residents and fellows in 10 residency and 17 fellowship programs trained at Baystate Health. In addition, Baystate Health provided training to over 270 medical students completing clerkships and electives in various specialties. There were over 1,000 nursing students and over 267 allied health students from local colleges and universities that completed clinical training as part of their associate, baccalaureate, master's and post-doctoral work. Baystate Health is a nationally accredited provider of continuing education for the entire team of health care professionals. Continuing education is provided through regional conferences, grand rounds, and internet courses. Due to COVID-19, student education was paused March 17, 2020 June 1, 2020, decreasing the total number of students Baystate Health welcomes every year.In tax year 2019, a record 152 nurses graduated from the Baystate Health Nurse Residency Program. The program is a one-year program for registered nurses with less than 12 months experience, offering practice-based experience, in-depth learning, and ongoing professional development. Baystate Health's Nurse Residency Program was Accredited with Distinction, the highest recognition awarded, as a Practice Transition Program by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's (ANCC) Commission on Accreditation. The program is one of only four in the state of Massachusetts to receive ANCC accreditation. In tax year 2019, Baystate Health provided 29 nurses with forgivable nursing loans towards earning their ADN, BSN, masters, DNP, or PhD in nursing. The program was established in 2002 and to date has supported more than 600 RNs and student nurses providing more than $2,358,250 in forgivable loans.The Baystate Medical Center's Midwifery Education Program was able to graduate the 27th class, despite disruptions from the pandemic. All successfully passed the American Midwifery Certification Exam, maintaining the Program's pass rate of 100%. All are Certified Nurse-Midwives in practice in Boston, Beverly, and Northampton, Massachusetts; Saratoga Springs, New York; and Manchester, Connecticut. However, the pandemic did require cancellation of the summer semester which will delay the graduation of the class of 2021 until August. But a full class of students was admitted in September, 2020, and the program has resumed its regular schedule. We are one of the only programs in the country able to continue on-site learning experiences through this challenging year.In partnership with the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Baystate Health is now the regional campus for an innovative curriculum track called PURCH (Population-based Urban and Rural Community Health). The PURCH track focuses on addressing social determinants of health for our patients. The PURCH track is designed to prepare students to care for Baystate Health's diverse patient populations by providing classroom and clinical experiences in a variety of clinical settings, led by faculty who have expertise in population health and clinical effectiveness research. The goals of the program are to increase access to students in Massachusetts seeking an affordable medical education; to respond to the health care needs of the Commonwealth by increasing the number of Massachusetts physicians trained in urban and rural primary care; and to apply proven academic research methods to improve population health, reduce health disparities, and make health care better integrated, more efficient, and more effective.In tax year 2019, Baystate Springfield Educational Partnership (BSEP) found itself redesigning its program in light of the pandemic. Halfway through the winter/spring program cycle, the entire program shifted to a virtual environment. As a result, the early number of participants remained high, and, in fact, partially increased. By summer and fall, the limitations and repetition of the online courses impacted students and their participation. Nonetheless, BSEP ran courses for 209 students, primarily residents of Springfield during the winter/spring and fall program cycles. We also coordinated a series of one-time workshops in May for 103 students that focused on COVID-19 information, mental health support, and changes to activity at the hospital. During the summer, BSEP provided theme-based workshops for 45 students, coordinated 24 summer internships at Baystate Medical, and placed 18 students in work experiences. Overall, more than130 students have been hired as employees at Baystate Health. BSEP awarded a total of $25,000 in scholarships for undergraduate education to 26 alumni students. The twelve-year total of scholarships awarded now exceeds $750,000.Volunteers enhance the work of our employees and interactions with our patients and families every day. In tax year 2019, Volunteer Services was suspended as of March 2019 because of the COVID pandemic. Baystate's 325 volunteers were not able to provide their valued services to patients and staff. Some employees were transitioned to help with escorting and wayfinding for patients and visitors. In November of 2020, BMC Volunteer Program partnered with the Community Music School of Springfield (CMSS) to provide virtual concerts for patients. Tablets were provided by Patient Experience and Baystate called CMMS staff who performed live concerts for patients in their rooms. Recordings were also made available on the GET Well Network to help support patients through the holidays and Baystate has continued both services. Approximately 40 hours of concerts have been provided to date. Baystate knows the patients and visitors miss the interaction with volunteers, and the volunteers very much miss coming in to help patients and staff. Baystate volunteers are hopeful to return soon.In tax year 2019, nearly 202,000 language interpreter sessions helped patients and families better understand their care. The Interpreter and Translation Services department interpreted 61 languages in person, over the phone, and via video, and translated 4,735 pages of patient-related information. The overall volume of interpreter sessions was down because the hospital paused all elective procedures for a few months during the height of COVID-19. Many departments that had done very little telehealth visits by phone or video began to assist patients virtually to keep everyone safe. Telephonic interpreting increased by 48% (58,605 v. 38,369) and video increased by 156% (16,137 v. 6,291). While these virtual appointments were challenging for some, we ensured that those patients who are limited English proficient or deaf were still able to communicate directly with their providers with the assistance of trained and competent medical interpreters. Baystate Health's Medicaid Accountable Care Organization (ACO), the BeHealthy Partnership (BHP) which includes Caring Health Center, Health New England, and the four Baystate Health Community Health Centers serves approximately 40,000 people and saw an increase due to the COVID-19 pandemic in tax year 2019. In its third year, BHP focused on continuing to build out its clinical innovation strategies, interoperability infrastructure, as well as meet its quality standards. The ACO stood up a COVID-19 Mitigation Workgroup, which involved partnering with community entities such as the Springfield Housing Authority. The ACO also deepened community linkage efforts to better support our members through the Flexible Services program that served 550 members; 83% of the referred members received housing, asthma and COVID supply delivery and emergency food deliveries as appropriate. Community outreach efforts are intricately linked to future strategies of telehealth, Flexible Services programming, and balancing medical and social supports for better health outcomes and reduction of total cost of care.
Form 990, Schedule H, Part VI, Line 6 continuedBaystate Health and its affiliates are committed to providing the communities they serve throughout western Massachusetts with the resources necessary to stay informed and healthy by providing both basic and extensive educational opportunities such as parent education classes, including "Baystate's New Beginnings" a perinatal education and support program. Also offered are breastfeeding classes, prenatal/postnatal classes, and infant safety classes. Some classes are free while others are offered at a reasonable fee. No one is turned away due to inability to pay. Due to COVID-19, face-to-face programs were suspended but online parent education classes were made available as well as synchronous classes on a virtual WebEx platform with a live parent educator. Baystate Health continues to offer many free groups via WebEx including breastfeeding Question and Answer hour, Childbirth Question and Answer hour, and a new parent support group.The EMPOWER program at Baystate Franklin, designed to help pregnant women with opioid use disorder (OUD) have healthy babies and pursue healthier futures, received a two-year, $1 million State Opioid Response (SOR) grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration (SAMHSA) in the fall of 2018 to expand the program. The program provides a medical/behavioral health home to pregnant, postpartum, and parenting women ages 18 or older (who may also have a child/children 36 months or younger) with OUD. The funding was renewed in September 2020 and will continue through September 2022. The grant provides care coordination, service integration, and peer support to women who enroll. The expanded program is called Moms Do Care EMPOWER. (Moms Do Care was a previous program run in the eastern part of the state at 4 different sites) One of the most innovative features of the grant is the creation of a Care Team which is a team that meets monthly to coordinate services being provided across agencies to women in the program. The EMPOWER program currently serves approximately 30 women and families in Franklin County each year.Baystate Medical implemented an enhanced way to care for newborns physiologically dependent on opioids and their mothers called the Rooming-in Program. Previously, babies impacted by maternal OUD were admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit if they required pharmacological treatment for Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome. Parents understood little about the process and length of stay averaged several weeks. With the Rooming-in Program, eligible babies remain with their mothers in a private room throughout treatment, encouraging breastfeeding and bonding. Mothers receive prenatal and postnatal education to better understand the process and how to care for their babies, leaving them empowered while significantly decreasing length of stay for these babies.The Institute for Healthcare Improvement recognized Baystate Medical and Baystate Health's three community health centers as the first age-friendly health care institutions in the nation. The national age-friendly health system movement focuses on improving care by attending to what matters most to patients: medications, mental activity, and mobility. The honor recognized the efforts of the Acute Care for Elders program team and the interprofessional "Geri-Pal" team who recognize the unique problems of older adults, focus on what is most important to patients, and emphasize keeping those in their care as independent and active as possible. They assist with care plans, choosing treatment options, recognizing drug side effects, and making difficult decisions.Baystate Health has provided a safe way to dispose of unwanted medications and sharps through the installation of collection receptacles in the lobbies at each of its four hospitals and several other health care facilities. Community members now have a resource for safely and confidentially throwing away household sharps (needles and other syringe related devices) and unused prescription medications. In tax year 2019 Baystate Health collected approximately 1,803 pounds of sharps and 1060 pounds of medications from the communities.The Mini-Medical School program is an eight-part health education series offered at Baystate Medical featuring a different aspect of medicine each week. Designed for an adult audience, each course is taught by an energetic faculty member who will explain the science of medicine without resorting to complex terms. Mini-Medical School gives Baystate Health the opportunity to open its doors to the public and share its knowledge of medicine in a comfortable and friendly environment. Many of the students participate due to a general interest and later find that many of the things they learned over the semester are relevant to their own lives. The goal of this program is to help members of the public make more informed decisions about all aspects of their health care while receiving insight on what it's like to be a medical student. Tuition is $95 per person, $80 for Senior Class and Every Woman members. Mini-Medical School Alumni is over 2,000 members. The last cohort to complete the eight-week program in fall of 2019 (September 26 November 14). Because the program consists of in-person meetings, gatherings, and tours, in 2020 Baystate Medical did not host the usual spring and fall semesters. This decision was based off of CDC guidelines around social gatherings and events during the pandemic. Baystate Health offers free programs to women and seniors 55+. Baystate Health Senior Class is a free loyalty program dedicated to health and wellness offered exclusively for men and women ages 55 and over. The 21,000+ Senior Class members receive a quarterly newsletter and bi-monthly eNews with valuable health information, benefits, and invitations to special events, including virtual events designed with their interests in mind. The free Baystate Health Every Woman Loyalty Program offers its 15,000+ members the latest women's health information through seminars with physicians, nurses, and other medical professionals in a comfortable and lively setting as well as virtual events. Members receive a quarterly newsletter and monthly eNews. The program is designed to increase knowledge of women's health issues, and in turn, provide women with the information they need to make the best decisions regarding their health.
Form 990, Schedule H, Part VI, Line 6 continuedIn tax year 2019, 23 employees were awarded forgivable loans to purchase their first home through the Mark R. Tolosky Baystate Neighbors Program. This Baystate Health benefit provides forgivable loans to employees purchasing their first home in the communities surrounding Baystate Health hospitals. To date, the program has provided more than $2 million in forgivable home loans.Since its inception in 1994, Rays of Hope has been helping women and men in the fight against breast cancer by walking alongside them on their cancer journey. Through the Baystate Health Breast Network, Rays of Hope cares for the whole person from diagnosis and beyond by supporting research at the Rays of Hope Center for Breast Cancer Research, providing funding for state-of-the-art equipment, breast health programs, and outreach and education throughout Baystate Health as well as providing grants for complementary therapies and cancer programs to our community partners throughout western Massachusetts. Rays of Hope has raised over $15.7 million to date. All funds raised remain local in western Massachusetts.The United Way develops and supports programs that directly improve the lives of people in our communities, a mission proudly shared by Baystate Health. Baystate Health is a strong supporter of the United Way, and a major contributor to the organization with workforce campaigns and thousands of employee donors and volunteers. Baystate Health's contributions help the United Way serve our families, friends, colleagues, and others who seek help in different ways and at different times in their lives. Three community campaigns are held annually: Springfield, Westfield, and Palmer workplace to support the United Way of Pioneer Valley, Greenfield workplace to support the United Way of Franklin County, and Ware workplace to support the United Way of Hampshire County. Employees can direct their donations to one or all of the United Way's action areas: Education, Income, and Health, or designate to a qualified agency with a minimum contribution. As part of an annual tradition, in tax year 2019 Baystate Health team members generously donate school supplies to local elementary schools located in each of our four hospital communities. This year, due to COVID-19 we were unable to hold school supplies donation drives. To fulfill our annual commitment to supporting local schools, Baystate's Community Benefits Program funded the purchase of much needed school supplies. We were able to leverage our organization's purchasing power and order the school supplies through vendor contracts. With an investment of $25,000 we were able to provide an assortment of school supplies including cleaning and disinfecting wipes, hand sanitizer, crayons, markers, earbuds, face masks, colored pencils, erasers, dry erase markers, and much more. The donations benefited 17 elementary schools, 300 classroom, 450+ teachers/staff, and 5,000 students. In addition, over $2,000 worth of gift cards were donated by team members and gifted to the beneficiary schools. Beneficiary schools included: Springfield: Brightwood Elementary School, William N. DeBerry Elementary School, EduCare Springfield, Gerena Community School, Lincoln Elementary School, Margaret C. Ells Elementary School, and Milton Bradley Elementary School. Westfield: Abner Gibbs Elementary School. Greenfield: Academy of Early Learning, Federal Street Elementary School, Four Corners Elementary School, and Newton Elementary School. Palmer: Old Mill Pond Elementary School. Monson: Granite Valley Middle School. Ware: Stanley M. Koziol Elementary School. Quaboag Regional: Warren Community Elementary School, West Brookfield Elementary SchoolThe COVID-19 pandemic and holiday surge may have prohibited our hospitals from hosting their annual in person holiday toy drives, but it did not stop our employees from generously donating new toys/gifts to benefit local children during the holiday season. Each Baystate hospital created a safe plan for employees to mail or deliver their toy donations. Baystate Medical team members donated over 300 toys, shipped directly by the Baystate Health Warehouse team to our three Springfield community health centers for staff and providers to gift to pediatrics patients. Baystate Health's Community Benefits Program provided one-time holiday basic needs grants to New North Citizens' Council and Martin Luther King, Jr. Family Services, both based in Springfield. Baystate Health Eastern Region team members donated toys/gifts to benefit 90 children from Ware, Palmer, Belchertown, the Brookfields, Brimfield, and Warren served by Behavioral Health Network (BHN). Franklin County children served by Community Action of Pioneer Valley's Family Center were the recipients of several dozen toys/gifts donated by Baystate Franklin team members. Baystate Noble team member donations benefited Greater Westfield children served by Behavioral Health Network (BHN).
