        <ExplanationTxt>PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: SAMARITAN'S COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN OUTLINED ACTIVITIES AND STRATEGIES IN TWO AREAS ALIGNED WITH NEW YORK STATE'S PREVENTION AGENDA: PREVENT CHRONIC DISEASE AND PROMOTE MENTAL HEALTH/PREVENT SUBSTANCE ABUSE. DURING 2018 SAMARITAN CONTINUED TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT AND WORK OF A CERTIFIED DIABETES EDUCATOR (CDE), WHO IS ALSO A REGISTERED DIETITIAN. THIS STAFF MEMBER IMPLEMENTED ONE-ON-ONE DIABETES SELF-MANAGEMENT EDUCATION (DSME) TO PATIENTS DIAGNOSED WITH DIABETES FOR MEDICAL NUTRITIONAL THERAPY (MNT). DURING 2018, SHE PROVIDED 324 DIABETES PATIENTS WITH DSME AND WORKED ON DEVELOPMENT OF A GROUP DSME CLASS FOR CERTIFICATION. THE CDE ALSO CONSULTED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR WITH PRIMARY CARE AND PHYSICIAN PRACTICES BOTH WITHIN AND OUTSIDE OF THE SAMARITAN HEALTH SYSTEM TO EDUCATE PRACTITIONERS ON HOW TO WORK WITH DIABETES PATIENTS TO PROMOTE DISEASE SELF-MANAGEMENT. SAMARITAN PARTNERED WITH OTHER LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS TO ENGAGE IN COMMUNITY-WIDE AWARENESS, EDUCATION AND PREVENTION ACTIVITIES IN THE AREAS OF DIABETES, AS WELL AS CANCER. DURING THE YEAR, SAMARITAN ALSO ENGAGED A CHRONIC CARE MANAGER, A REGISTERED NURSE WHO ASSESSED THE RECORDS OF NEARLY 300 OUTPATIENTS SUFFERING FROM TWO OR MORE CHRONIC CONDITIONS. SHE THEN WORKED WITH INDIVIDUAL PATIENTS TO DEVELOP PLANS THAT IDENTIFIED BARRIERS TO CARE, PROVIDED COUNSELING AND REFERRALS TO PROVIDERS AND COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS THAT ADDRESSED MEDICAL AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH ISSUES, AND PROVIDED COORDINATION AND INTERVENTION WHEN OBSTACLES AROSE DURING IMPLEMENTATION OF INDIVIDUAL PLANS.SAMARITAN CONTINUED IMPLEMENTATION OF PROTOCOLS TO INTEGRATE MENTAL, EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL (MEB) HEALTH SCREENINGS IN PRIMARY CARE SETTINGS. IT ALSO CONTINUED TO INCREASE PATIENT ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE AND RELATED SUPPORTS IN ITS PRIMARY CARE CLINICS AND WORK TO LESSEN THE STIGMA OF SEEKING MEB TREATMENT. NEARLY 30,000 OUTPATIENTS UNDERWENT INITIAL DEPRESSION SCREENINGS DURING PRIMARY CARE VISITS AND MORE THAN 2,000 OF THESE INDIVIDUALS UNDERWENT ADDITIONAL SCREENINGS WITH APPROPRIATE FOLLOW-UPS AND REFERRALS FOR TREATMENT. OUTPATIENT CLINIC PRACTITIONERS ALSO ENGAGED SCREENING, BRIEF INTERVENTION AND REFERRAL TO TREATMENT WITH MORE THAN 19,000 OUTPATIENTS. IN ADDITION, THE NUMBER OF LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKERS IN THE HOSPITAL'S OUTPATIENT CLINICS INCREASED FROM ONE TO THREE. LCSWS ASSIST INDIVIDUALS WITH MEB DIAGNOSES IN OBTAINING THE NECESSARY COUNSELING AND SUPPORT. IN ADDITION TO THESE SPECIFIC ACTIVITIES, SAMARITAN CONTINUED TO PARTICIPATE ON REGIONAL COMMITTEES AND IN INITIATIVES COORDINATED BY FDRHPO AND THE NORTH COUNTRY INITIATIVE THAT ADDRESS AREAS RELATIVE TO CHRONIC AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES, AS WELL AS PARTNER WITH THESE AND OTHER COMMUNITY PROVIDERS AND AGENCIES ON PROJECTS ADDRESSING ADDITIONAL REGIONAL POPULATION HEALTH CONCERNS THAT ARE NOT SPECIFICALLY TACKLED IN THE CURRENT CSP. THESE ONGOING ACTIVITIES INCLUDE PREVENTION AND AWARENESS EDUCATION ON THE REGION'S MOST PREVALENT CHRONIC DISEASES AND CONDITIONS, EARLY CANCER DETECTION SCREENINGS, SMOKING CESSATION CLASSES, PARTICIPATION IN AND SUPPORT FOR REGIONAL HEALTH CAMPAIGNS, PHYSICIAN RECRUITMENT/RETENTION ACTIVITIES, ADOPTION OF EVIDENCE-BASED MEDICAL AND CLINICAL IMPROVEMENTS TO ENHANCE PATIENT OUTCOMES, AND DEVELOPMENT OF TELEMEDICINE INFRASTRUCTURE AND TOOLS TO IMPROVE THE ACCESS OF OUR REGION'S RURAL, UNDER-SERVED POPULATION TO COST-EFFECTIVE, QUALITY HEALTH CARE.</ExplanationTxt>

IN ADDITION TO THIS AMOUNT, THE REPORT INDICATES THE NUMBER OF OUTPATIENTS TREATED, EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS, HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS AND BABIES DELIVERED DURING THAT YEAR, AS WELL THE NUMBER OF JOBS GENERATED. THIS REPORT ALSO PROVIDES AN ESTIMATE IN DOLLARS OF THE ANNUAL ECONOMIC ACTIVITY AND TAX DOLLARS GENERATED IN THE COMMUNITY DUE TO THE HOSPITAL'S PRESENCE AND SPENDING.

        <ExplanationTxt>PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE REDUCED BY AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTIBILITY OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, SAMARITAN MEDICAL CENTER (SMC), SAMARITAN MEDICAL PRACTICE, P.C. (SMP) AND SAMARITAN KEEP NURSING HOME, INC. (SKH) ANALYZE PAST PAYMENT HISTORY AND IDENTIFY TRENDS FOR EACH MAJOR PAYOR SOURCE OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, SMC, SMP AND SKH ANALYZE CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND PROVIDE AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS, IF NECESSARY (FOR EXAMPLE, FOR EXPECTED UNCOLLECTIBLE DEDUCTIBLES AND COPAYMENTS AND FOR PAYORS WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE HAVING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES THAT MAKE THE REALIZATION OF AMOUNTS DUE UNLIKELY). FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS, SMC, SMP AND SKH ALSO ANALYZE AMOUNTS DUE AND PROVIDE AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IN THE PERIOD OF SERVICE BASED ON PAST EXPERIENCE, INCLUDING CONSIDERATION OF CURRENT BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. WHEN SMC, SMP AND SKH ESTABLISH THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS BOTH TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE FACT THAT MANY SELF-PAY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE STANDARD RATES AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT AT COST REPORTED ON LINE #2 WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE OVERALL IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSION TO THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBT EXPENSE AS REPORTED IN OUR 2018 AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>LOCATED IN NORTHERN NEW YORK STATE, SAMARITAN MEDICAL CENTER'S SERVICE AREA COMPRISES JEFFERSON COUNTY, WHICH HAS A LAND MASS OF 1,268 SQUARE MILES, AND ADJACENT PORTIONS OF ST. LAWRENCE, LEWIS AND OSWEGO COUNTIES. SAMARITAN'S PATIENTS ARE PREDOMINANTLY JEFFERSON COUNTY RESIDENTS. THE U.S. CENSUS ESTIMATED JEFFERSON COUNTY'S 2018 POPULATION AT 111,775, FOR A POPULATION DENSITY OF 88 PERSONS PER SQUARE MILE. THE POPULATION IS APPROXIMATELY 90% CAUCASIAN, 8% BLACK OR AFRICAN AMERICAN, WITH THE REMAINDER DESIGNATED AS MEMBERS OF NATIVE POPULATIONS OR OF MULTIPLE RACES. POPULATION CENTERS IN OUR LARGELY RURAL COUNTY INCLUDE THE SMALL CITY OF WATERTOWN (2018 POPULATION ESTIMATE 25,290), THE FORT DRUM U.S. MILITARY POST (HOME OF THE 10TH MOUNTAIN DIVISION), AND SEVERAL SMALL VILLAGES. THE TRANSIENT MILITARY POPULATION ASSIGNED TO FORT DRUM INCLUDES, AT ANY GIVEN TIME, NEARLY 15,000 SOLDIERS AND A LIKE NUMBER OF FAMILY MEMBERS. HOUSING IS AVAILABLE ON POST TO SOME BUT NOT ALL MILITARY FAMILIES; THERE ARE NO HOSPITALS OR PRIMARY/SECONDARY SCHOOLS LOCATED ON FORT DRUM, WITH THE ARMY INSTEAD RELYING ON LOCAL COMMUNITY RESOURCES FOR ADDITIONAL HOUSING, ACUTE CARE AND SPECIALTY MEDICAL SERVICES, AND THE EDUCATION OF SOLDIERS' CHILDREN. BECAUSE OF THIS, THE FORT DRUM COMMUNITY IS WELL INTEGRATED IN AND SUPPORTED BY THE REGION'S CIVILIAN COMMUNITY.GEOGRAPHICALLY, JEFFERSON COUNTY IS SITUATED ADJACENT TO CANADA, WITH ITS WESTERN BORDER FORMED BY LAKE ONTARIO AND THE ST. LAWRENCE RIVER. THE SOUTHEASTERN SIDE OF THE COUNTY INCLUDES A PORTION OF THE TUG HILL PLATEAU WHILE THE ADIRONDACK FOOTHILLS LIE TO THE NORTH. VARYING PORTIONS OF THE COUNTY EACH WINTER ENDURE RECURRENT BOUTS OF SEVERE WEATHER, DUE LARGELY TO HEAVY LAKE EFFECT SNOWSTORMS BLOWING IN FROM LAKE ONTARIO AND ACROSS THE TUG HILL, GENERATING SOME OF THE NATION'S LARGEST ANNUAL SNOWFALLS. THE COUNTY LAGS ECONOMICALLY WHEN COMPARED TO NEW YORK STATE. THE MEDIAN INCOME FOR JEFFERSON COUNT HOUSEHOLDS IS 20% LOWER THAT THE STATE'S MEDIAN INCOME. U.S. CENSUS FIGURES FURTHER INDICATE THAT 15% OF JEFFERSON COUNTY RESIDENTS LIVE IN POVERTY. COUNTY UNEMPLOYMENT ALSO RUNS CONSISTENTLY HIGHER THAN THE REST OF THE STATE. WHILE THE U.S. ARMY IS FAR AND AWAY THE LARGEST EMPLOYER IN JEFFERSON COUNTY WITH APPROXIMATELY 25,000 EMPLOYEES (MILITARY AND CIVILIAN), THE SAMARITAN HEALTH SYSTEM (WHICH INCLUDES SAMARITAN MEDICAL CENTER AND SEVERAL AFFILIATED FACILITIES AND AGENCIES), WHICH HAS NEARLY 2,200 FULL-TIME EQUIVALENT EMPLOYEES, IS THE COMMUNITY'S LARGEST PRIVATE EMPLOYER. IN ADDITION TO GOVERNMENT, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES AND EDUCATION JOBS, OTHER KEY SECTORS OF EMPLOYMENT INCLUDE AGRICULTURE, TOURISM, RETAIL AND MANUFACTURING. SAMARITAN'S PAYER MIX ANNUALLY SHOWS 35% TO 40% OF HOSPITALIZATIONS AND PATIENT VISITS ARE COVERED BY MEDICARE AND ANOTHER 20% BY MEDICAID, WITH THE NEXT LARGEST PERCENTAGES COVERED BY TRICARE (THE U.S. DEPT. OF DEFENSE'S INSURANCE PROGRAMS) AND COMMERCIAL INSURANCE. ABOUT 3% OF SAMARITAN'S VISITS AND HOSPITALIZATIONS ARE NOT COVERED BY AN INSURANCE PROGRAM.</ExplanationTxt>
