        <ExplanationTxt>When a foreign institution is the subrecipient of an award received by a Lifespan affiliate, the following procedures are adhered to: A subrecipient agreement is prepared and executed between the foreign institution and the Lifespan affiliate. The agreement describes the funding source, terms and conditions of the award, statement of work, payment method, and audit process. The foreign institution prepares an invoice to the Lifespan affiliate for expenses incurred under the agreement. Once received, the invoice is reviewed and approved by both the principal investigator at the Lifespan affiliate and the responsible research administrator in the Lifespan Office of Research Administration.Check requests and wire transfer forms are prepared by the principal investigator, approved by the responsible research administrator, and forwarded to the Finance Department, where payment is processed to the foreign institution.Additionally, when the award is a federal award, a questionnaire is completed by the appropriate subrecipient official supplying information about the foreign institution's financial system and method of accounting for the award. A request is also made for the institution's audited financial statements. When a foreign individual is not associated with an institution, a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) is executed and the individual sends an invoice to the Lifespan affiliate principal investigator associated with the project or sponsored agreement that states the number of hours, dates of services, work performed, expense reimbursement request, and compensation amount. The same approval and payment process is used as described above.Expenditures related to foreign activities are recorded on the accrual basis of accounting.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The CHNA encompassed intensive data collection and analysis, as well as qualitative research in the form of interviews with internal and external stakeholders, including hospital-based physicians, nurses, social workers, administrators, and other professionals, as well as community-based stakeholders representing constituencies served by TMH and Lifespans three other hospitals. TMH also conducted four Community Health Forums (CHFs) between May-June 2016 which are a qualitative social science data collection method used in community-based or participatory action research. These CHFs were held strategically throughout various locations identified within TMH's patient population community as a way to increase the mix of the participants in an effort to identify the entire community's most significant health needs. The CHFs were open to the public and provided opportunities for residents to share their health concerns and needs with Lifespan staff. TMHs leadership team shaped the CHNA by recommending institutional and community leaders for participation, offering observations about community needs, and providing insight about existing and planned programs.Qualitative data collected during the course of 2015-2016 related to the preparation of the CHNA consist of: (1) interviews completed with internal stakeholders (i.e., hospital-based and Lifespan-based); (2) interviews with key informant community leaders, representing an array of constituencies; and (3) four Community Health Forums held within the communities of the TMH patient population.Interviews with leaders of organizations encompassed a wide range of issues and populations, including historically underserved communities, such as minority populations, children and youth, and immigrant/refugee populations, and also included leaders of organizations with specific interests or expertise in key issues such as obesity, cancer, and asthma. To ensure representation from a broad cross-section of the community, CHF's were held in the following locations:- Laurelmead, an active senior living center located at 355 Blackstone Boulevard, Providence, RI 02906;- New Dimension Apostolic Church, located at 100 Niantic Avenue, Providence, Rhode Island 02907;-Olney Street Baptist Church, located at 100 Olney Street, Providence, Rhode Island 02906; and-Rochambeau Library, located at 708 Hope Street, Providence, Rhode Island 02906.</ExplanationTxt>

        <FormAndLineReferenceDesc>Part I, Line 3c - Charity Care Eligibility Criteria (FPG Is Not Used)</FormAndLineReferenceDesc>
        <ExplanationTxt>The Miriam Hospital (TMH) uses a dual system for determining financial aid eligibility: federal poverty guidelines and an asset test.The financial screening process at TMH is intended to define probable eligibility for public assistance (Medicaid or Community Free Service ("CFS")) for those patients who do not have the means to pay for hospital services rendered, as follows:1. Upon patient indication of an inability to pay required monies, the patient is offered the financial screening option to determine eligibility for public assistance (Medicaid, CFS).2. The application for CFS is completed and includes information relative to income, expense, and other available resources, and requires proof of such information which may include:- most recently filed Federal income tax return and W-2 form(s)- copies of most recent savings and/or checking account statements- two most recently received payroll check stubs- copy of rent receipts for the last six months for proof of residency- copy of utility bills for the last month for proof of residency3. If the patient's financial situation falls within the guidelines for eligibility for Medicaid, RIte Care, or CFS, or if the patient has a long-term disability, the appropriate application process is completed. (Assistance to complete such applications is available from the Patient Financial Advocates (PFA) Office at the Hospital.)4. Uninsured patients receive a discount equal to the discount received by Medicare beneficiaries on TMH charges using the prospective method. Under Section 501(r)(5), the maximum amounts that can be charged to Financial Assistance Policy (FAP)-eligible individuals for emergency or other medically necessary care are the amounts generally billed to individuals who have Medicare insurance covering such care. In no case was there a situation where an uninsured patient paid more than amounts reimbursed from Medicare.5. Eligibility for CFS above the discount is provided for those applicants whose family gross income is at or below twice the Federal Poverty Guidelines, with a sliding scale for individuals up to three times the poverty level in effect at the time of application. Full charity care applicants with assets worth more than $9,400 for an individual (or $14,100 for a family) may not qualify for care without charge, but will qualify for discounted care. While the maximum 100% discount may not be available to all charity care applicants based on the results of their asset test, all uninsured patients who receive care are eligible for, at a minimum, the charity care discount as provided by the Medicare program. 6. For patients who qualify for less than 100% of the financial assistance program, a payment schedule is determined and agreed upon (discussed further below). Payment arrangements are established prior to service for non-urgent care. 7. In either case, the final results of the financial screening are recorded in the comments section of the Hospital's billing system.Requests for Payment Arrangements:Patient Financial Advocates (PFA) will qualify patients that are receiving non-urgent, medically indicated procedures prior to services. The PFA will request 75% to 100% of estimated discounted charges if the balance is under $5,000 and 50% to 100% of estimated discounted charges if the estimated bill equals or exceeds $5,000.For elective or non-urgent cases, the policy will require financial clearance prior to services or an exception from the Medical Director based on the clinical circumstances if the patient cannot meet the above payment agreement.Patients who do not qualify for total or partial CFS, but who have difficulty in paying their bills after services are rendered, may request enrollment in a payment plan. Eligibility for the payment plan includes the following guidelines:1. Immediate payment in full will result in financial hardship to the patient or the patient's family.2. Deposit of one-half of the estimated total bill is requested prior to admission.3. The minimum monthly payment of $50.00.4. The maximum length of the payment plan is twenty-four months.The Customer Service staff will set up the payment plan using the above guidelines as well as complete the necessary information on the "Payment Agreement" form and mail to the patient for signature. Account documentation will be done online. The pre-collect agency will be sent a copy of the payment agreement and all forms will be scanned into the PFS Optical Imaging System.</ExplanationTxt>

        <FormAndLineReferenceDesc>Part I, Line 7 - Explanation of Costing Methodology</FormAndLineReferenceDesc>
        <ExplanationTxt>TMH's costing methodology used to calculate the amounts reported in Part I, Line 7 is as follows:a) Financial assistance at cost- involves utilization of a ratio derived from dividing patient costs, as defined, by patient charges, as defined, and applying that percentage to total charity care charges.Patient costs reported in the cost accounting system are calculated based on Medicare principles of reimbursement by reducing total operating expenses (as calculated by Form 990 requirements) by items such as bad debt expense, the cost of medical education, internally funded research, subsidized health services, community services, charitable contributions, and other operating revenue. Patient costs are then divided by patient charges to determine a ratio of cost to charges (RCC). This RCC is applied as the costing methodology for determining charity care expense.b) Medicaid- Medicaid expense is determined at cost as calculated by TMH's cost accounting system. The system uses historical costing methods applied to all patient segments based on various patient demographics and utilizations. These costing standards exclude bad debt, charity care, and the Medicaid portion of costs of health professions education, which are reported on other areas of Line 7. These expenses include Medicaid provider taxes. Direct offsetting revenue is reported as amounts received from Medicaid, as well as other payments which include reimbursement under Federal "Upper Payment Limit" (UPL) and "Disproportionate Share Hospital" (DSH) programs.e) Community health improvement services and community benefit operations- Community benefit operations expense is recorded as direct expenses incurred as reported by TMH's Community Health Services Department. Revenue received for these services is reported as direct offsetting revenue. f) Health professions education- Health professions education expenses represent direct costs related to amounts associated with resident and intern programs utilized at TMH. These costs are determined by reporting actual direct costs taken from the Medicare cost report. Direct offsetting revenue is reported as any direct Medicare reimbursements received for such services provided, as reported in TMH's Medicare cost report.g) Subsidized health services- Subsidized health services' community benefit expense is determined by TMH's cost accounting system. These subsidized health services are recorded at cost in TMH's cost accounting system for all qualified subsidized health service divisions. This expense is adjusted to remove all related Graduate Medical Education (GME) expenses, as well as bad debt, Medicaid, and charity costs already reported in the applicable sections of Line 7. Net patient service revenue is recorded as amounts received from various payer types related to these services. Revenue associated with Medicare GME and Medicaid is excluded from the amount disclosed for subsidized health services.h) Research- TMH conducts extensive medical research focused on the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS, obesity, cancer, diabetes, cardiac disease, neurological problems, orthopedic advancements, and mental health concerns. For all internal and external research conducted, the costs associated with these activities are calculated by combining the direct and indirect costs as reported within TMH's cost accounting system. Revenue received for these services is reported as direct offsetting revenue. i) Cash and in-kind contributions for community benefit- Expenses for cash and in-kind contributions for community benefit are made by the Hospital, including an allocation of contributions made by Lifespan Corporation on TMH's behalf.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The amount reported as bad debt expense is determined by applying the ratio of cost to charges (RCC) to the total charges written off to bad debt. The RCC rate is determined using data from TMH's cost accounting system and is adjusted for medical education, internally funded research, subsidized health services, community services, and charitable contributions. Discounts and payments are applied to patient accounts before such account balances are transferred to bad debt.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Accounts pending transfer to bad debt are reviewed by TMH's patient advocate staff to determine qualification for financial assistance under TMH's policy. Accounts with insufficient information to determine eligibility are assigned a separate identifying code. These accounts are ultimately transferred to bad debt if the appropriate qualifying documentation is not received. The amount reported on Schedule H, Part III, Section A, Line 3 represents the account balances at charge written off to bad debt from the pending code, which are in turn converted to cost by applying the RCC rate as identified in Schedule H, Part III, Section A, Line 2.</ExplanationTxt>

        <FormAndLineReferenceDesc>Part III, Line 4 - Bad Debt Expense</FormAndLineReferenceDesc>
        <ExplanationTxt>Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. In evaluating the collectibility of accounts receivable, TMH analyzes its history and identifies its revenue trends for each of its major payors to estimate the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts and the associated provision for bad debts. Management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for doubtful accounts. For receivables associated with services provided to patients who have third-party coverage, TMH analyzes contractually due amounts and provides an allowance for doubtful accounts and a provision for bad debts, if necessary (for example, for expected uncollectible deductibles and copayments on accounts for which the third-party payor has not yet paid, or 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 (which includes both patients without insurance and patients with deductible and copayment balances due for which third-party coverage exists for part of the bill), TMH records a significant allowance for doubtful accounts and provision for bad debts in the period of service on the basis of its past experience, which indicates that many patients are unable or unwilling to pay the portion of their bill for which they are financially responsible. The difference between the standard rates (or the discounted rates, if applicable) and the amounts actually collected after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted is charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts.TMH's allowance for doubtful accounts for self-pay patients decreased from 79% of self-pay accounts receivable at September 30, 2017 to 61% of self-pay accounts receivable at September 30, 2018. TMH's self-pay writeoffs for the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 amounted to approximately $15,083,000 and $18,545,000, respectively. TMH did not change its charity care or uninsured discount policies during the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.</ExplanationTxt>

        <FormAndLineReferenceDesc>Part III, Line 9b - Provisions On Collection Practices For Qualified Patients</FormAndLineReferenceDesc>
        <ExplanationTxt>TMH does not bill for the excess of charges over agreed upon reimbursement amounts from third-party payors. Rather, such differences are recorded as a reduction of revenue through contractual adjustments. Collection efforts are focused on copayments, deductibles and amounts denied by insurers. After all collection attempts are exhausted, any remaining balances, including any copayments and deductibles, are written off as a bad debt. TMH classifies its bad debts as uncompensated care. This does not apply to Medicaid, however, as there are no associated copayments or deductibles for this payor.TMH does not require collateral or other security in extending credit to patients; however, it routinely obtains assignment of patients' benefits payable under their health insurance programs, plans or policies. Uninsured patients are offered Community Free Service and/or payment plan options.Lifespan's Patient Financial Services Department (PFS) has the responsibility for communicating and administering collection policies and procedures to all patient accounts. PFS engages the services of various pre-collect agencies as necessary. The following are highlights of the overall collection effort:* If a patient presents for admission who is not insured, staff assists the family with a Medicaid application.* If the patient is ineligible for Medicaid, a financial screening is performed to determine status of qualification for Community Free Service.* If the patient does not qualify for Community Free Service, PFS or the pre-collect agency attempts at least four contacts with the responsible party within the first 120 days.* If the third-party carrier denies in writing any responsibility for payment, arrangements regarding an extended payment plan are discussed with the patient.* At 120 days, if there is no payment activity or no hold placed on the account, the account is transferred to the appropriate collection agency.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Lifespan's Office of Strategic Planning and Analysis performs population-based studies for TMH regarding the need for inpatient medical and surgical services for both adults and children and a wide range of outpatient services including: primary care office visits, specialty care, emergency services, imaging, ambulatory surgery, and specific high technology services such as radiation therapy and bone marrow transplantation. A population-based study examines the growth and changes in the population, the resources in the community, and the changing prevalence of diseases. Lifespan Strategic Planning also examines experience with wait times, the level of staffing, and the changing standards of care. All of this information is used to assess the demand for additional services to provide access to high quality care.In addition to population approaches to assessing and estimating need, all specialties and services monitor demand at the service-specific level by considering changing patterns of care and methods of treatment for the specific medical problem, wait times for visits/queues, and community resources. The service leadership then goes through a review process to add staff, expanded hours, and/or new subcomponents to round out core services on an as-needed basis. At times, expansion requires more space, equipment, and staff, but often accommodation of community demand is achieved through expanded hours. Facilities are added as needed to accommodate these expansions, but most often minor renovations of existing locations with better, more modern layouts and equipment allow for greater patient access.The RI State Certificate of Need program requires a focused study of need for all projects over $5.25 million, which is an important part of the program development process across Lifespan.Based on a broad understanding of community health needs, TMH provides a wide range of services to both its primary and secondary service areas. Lifespan and its hospital affiliates monitor health trends in Rhode Island in an effort to identify areas of unmet demand regarding clinical services.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>TMH has multilingual signage in its main lobby and waiting areas which provides information on financial aid contacts. The Registration Department meets with patients at the outset of care to discuss eligibility for assistance. The Registration staff provides interested patients with a "Welcome" booklet which includes information on patient rights and responsibilities. The signage and booklets contain a telephone number which connects patients with Registration staff who can answer any additional questions that may arise after the patient has left TMH. Assistance eligibility is also summarized on TMH's website, http://miriamhospital.org.As part of TMH's inpatient intake process, TMH provides a summary of the financial assistance policy, along with all assistance applications and the Patient Financial Services contact number, to all self-pay patients. The same process is also used for patients seen during the outpatient discharge process. Attempts are made to contact patients prior to their visit to screen for financial assistance and to inform them what documents are required for their financial assistance determination or to set up an appointment to see a "Patient Financial Advocate" (PFA) prior to service. PFAs discuss with patients the various government programs that might be available to them for financial assistance. PFA's also offer assistance with the financial application process and/or understanding the qualification factors for Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, Medicare, Social Security Disability, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and Rhode Island Temporary Disability Insurance and Unemployment. This is done for both inpatient and outpatient services.</ExplanationTxt>

The restructuring has increased governance effectiveness and has streamlined governance operation, as well as provided a single strategic perspective for the Lifespan system hospitals. Pursuant to the restructuring, the bylaws of each of the affiliates were amended such that the composition of the boards of trustees of each of the hospitals and Newport Health Care Corporation is defined as those persons serving from time to time as the directors of Lifespan. As a result, the Boards of each entity are comprised of the same individuals. The Board of each entity retains its responsibilities and authorities notwithstanding the revision in its composition. The Board of Directors of Lifespan consists of not less than fourteen nor more than thirty-one directors, including the President and CEO of Lifespan, who serves ex-officio with vote.Additionally, the bylaws of TMH confer certain reserved powers upon Lifespan to provide it with the means of effective oversight, coordination, and support of the system. Powers reserved to Lifespan include: to elect and remove TMH trustees and to approve the election of and removal of certain officers.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The Total Joint Center:The Total Joint Center at The Miriam Hospital (the Center) is dedicated to providing the most technologically advanced and specialized procedures focused on the replacement of joints as well as rehabilitation and care in treating diseases of, or injuries to, hips, knees, and shoulders. TMH is a Blue Cross Blue Shield Blue Distinction Center for Knee and Hip Replacement, which is a designation given to hospitals that demonstrate an expertise in quality care by meeting objective clinical measures, resulting in better outcomes for patients. In 2017, the Gold Seal of Approval for Advanced Certification for Total Hip and Total Knee Replacement was awarded to the Center. The Miriam's second Joint Commission Gold Seal of Approval, the advanced designation which recognizes quality, consistency, and safety of services and patient care set by The Joint Commission and the Total Joint Center, is the only Rhode Island program to achieve advanced certification.Medical and surgical services at the Center are provided in a personalized, caring environment within the context of an academic medical center. All services focus on the patient experience from initial consultation through recovery.Multidisciplinary medical teams include many dedicated specialists - surgeons, internal medicine specialists, anesthesiologists, nurses, rehabilitation therapists, and social workers who work with patients from diagnosis to treatment to follow-up care. The physical therapy and nursing teams work together after surgery to get patients moving for faster recovery, and physicians, nurses, and therapists work collaboratively to follow up care.Each patient benefits from individualized treatment plans and rehabilitation to aid recovery and restore functionality as quickly as possible. Whenever possible, minimally invasive surgical techniques are used to perform surgery. These techniques have dramatically improved the quality of the post-operative and recovery experience for the patient. In certain cases, computer navigation technology is used for knee and hip replacement surgeries.
