Services include inpatient acute, skilled swing-bed, and intermediate swing-bed care services along with outpatient services. During 2024, EDH completed several projects to increase the quality of service or safety to our patients and residents. 1) We moved into our New Hospital that was on our 2021 Community Health Needs Assessment for an Improved Hospital Facility. The process entailed applying for a USDA Grant to make sure we didn't increase district taxes. During the process of design, the new facility we also had to decide what equipment we would be able to replace and what equipment could move to the new facility with us. 2) In 2024 EDH restructured our ER schedule again, due to increase use of ER in our new facility. We had to add another ER RN position. This added an additional position to our Nursing schedule, but in doing so we believe we can better serve our community. This position also covers our outpatient treatments performed by nursing. This makes sure the ER patients and outpatients get the full attention they need while in our facility. 10951916 true true false true false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true true true true false true 35 0 true 132 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 7 6 true false false false true true true true true false false true true true true true true false false false X JASON BARB 3166851523 250 NORTH ROCK ROAD STE 160 WICHITA KS 67206 CURT COLSON PRESIDENT/CEO/DIRECTOR 0.2 41.2 X X 0 217358 54774 JOHN TERRILL Chairman/DIRECTOR 0.2 1.2 X X 0 0 0 ROGER JOHN Secretary/DIRECTOR 0.2 1.2 X X 0 0 0 STEVE CARLSON TREASURER/DIRECTOR 0.2 1.2 X X 0 0 0 Allen VANDRIEL DIRECTOR 0.2 1.2 X 0 0 0 ARTHUR HENDRICKSON DIRECTOR 0.2 1.2 X 0 0 0 DR BARBARA BROWN APPLEGATE DIRECTOR 0.2 1.2 X 0 0 0 JASON BARB CFO 0.2 41.2 X 0 191413 50658 KILE MAGNER ADMINISTRATOR 40.0 0.0 X 133262 0 41992 CHARLIE JOSLIN PHYSICIAN 40.0 0.0 X 224726 0 54112 CHRISTOPHER BROWN PHYSICIAN 40.0 0.0 X 301768 0 54319 TROY MOORE DEPT HEAD PT 40.0 0.0 X 138670 0 40220 798426 408771 296075 4 false true false HEALTH FACILITIES GROUP LLC 330 N MEAD ST WICHITA KS 67202 ARCHITECTURE SERVICES 690256 GPHA 250 N ROCK RD STE 160 WICHITA KS 67206 MANAGEMENT AND SERV 517003 AYA HEALTHCARE INC 5930 CORNERSTONE CT SUITE 300 SAN DIEGO CA 92121 NURSING AND LAB CONTRACT SERVICES 166066 QS HEALTHCARE LLC 1701 WILLIAMS ST GREAT BEND KS 67530 PROFESSIONAL SERVICES 126933 4 1819254 886255 2705509 NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE 621300 9080983 9080983 340B REVENUE 621300 520747 520747 0 0 0 0 9601730 27953 27953 1880 0 1880 0 1880 1880 200 396841 0 -396641 -396641 -396641 VENDOR REBATES 900099 37194 37194 EMPLOYEE/GUEST MEALS 722514 12634 12634 34983 0 0 34983 84811 12025242 9601730 0 -281997 X 0 0 155580 155580 5757524 5218650 538874 365621 323189 42432 713097 591382 121715 375095 328042 47053 136560 136560 2250 2250 1894680 1434308 460372 0 17704 17704 1052930 692702 360228 17368 9718 7650 136354 124686 11668 12298 9464 2834 62734 62113 621 219196 22778 196418 754459 673263 81196 55247 4333 50914 MEDICAL SUPPLIES 748716 748716 BAD DEBT EXPENSE 328593 328593 EQUIPMENT RENTAL & REPAIRS 331909 323435 8474 DUES & SUBSCRIPTIONS 33625 17460 16165 69185 39084 30101 0 13240725 10951916 2288809 0 217496 357235 983384 1421042 0 0 0 0 161387 168976 41668 240294 31860820 1992884 15509834 29867936 0 0 378062 186952 17291831 32242435 2055518 6248141 11558783 23630763 0 0 188462 176624 122992 36314 13925755 30091842 X 3366076 2150593 3366076 2150593 17291831 32242435 -1215483 0 X X false false true false X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false false false true 2250 false false false 2250 false Schedule C, Part II-B, Line 1f A PORTION OF THE ANNUAL DUES PAID TO KHA AND AHA ARE USED FOR LOBBYING. 237750 237750 20275157 443966 19831191 9438566 1500997 7937569 1909347 47921 1861426 29867936 FINANCE LEASE LIABILITIES 36314 36314 Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS MANAGEMENT HAS EVALUATED THEIR INCOME TAX POSITIONS UNDER THE GUIDANCE INCLUDED IN ASC 740.

Another community need was to recruit new providers and in 2024 we hired a New MD and had 2 nurses in the last stages of their APRN program. Schedule H, Part VI, Line 3 Patient education of eligibility for assistance The Financial Assistance Program employs a sliding scale discount that takes into consideration a patient's household income and qualifying assets. The Financial Counselor consults with private pay patients to see if they qualify for the Hospital's financial assistance policy. We also have posted online and in both the hospital and clinic lobbies that financial assistance is available and to apply with the Financial Counselor at the Hospital. If discovered during the accounts receivable collection process that a patient is having trouble paying bills, both the hospital and the centralized billing office will inform the patient that financial assistance is available. As part of the financial assistance program all applicants must apply for Medicaid. If after the initial interview there is a consensus that the patient may qualify for financial assistance, the financial counselor gives patient forms to complete and asks to see bank statements, tax returns, etc. Computations based on current Federal Poverty Level Guidelines are completed to see if qualification is appropriate and the percentage of charges to be written off is determined, based on family size and household income. All instances of financial assistance are approved by upper management of the Hospital.
