CHNA METHODS ------------ THE CHNA WAS GUIDED BY A PARTICIPATORY, COLLABORATIVE APPROACH, WHICH EXAMINED HEALTH IN ITS BROADEST SENSE. THIS PROCESS INCLUDED INTEGRATING EXISTING SECONDARY DATA ON SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND HEALTH ISSUES IN THE REGION WITH QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION FROM A COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY AND QUALITATIVE INFORMATION FROM 6 FOCUS GROUPS WITH COMMUNITY RESIDENTS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS AND 13 INTERVIEWS WITH COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS. FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS WERE CONDUCTED WITH INDIVIDUALS FROM THE THREE COUNTIES THAT COMPRISE THE PCHS SERVICE REGION, WITH INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING PUBLIC HEALTH, SENIORS, PHCS STAFF AND PROVIDERS, EMS PROVIDERS, SOCIAL SERVICE, HEALTHCARE, AND MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS AND THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT. THE SURVEY WAS ADMINISTERED ONLINE AND DISSEMINATED THROUGH MULTIPLE CHANNELS TO INDIVIDUALS WHO EITHER LIVE OR WORK IN MERCER, MIDDLESEX AND SOMERSET COUNTIES. A TOTAL OF 1,308 PEOPLE COMPLETED THE SURVEY. SECONDARY DATA -------------- THE CHNA INCORPORATES DATA ON IMPORTANT SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND HEALTH INDICATORS PULLED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES, INCLUDING: - U.S. CENSUS; - CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION; - U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR; - NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SENIOR SERVICES; - THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION; AND - NATIONAL DATABASES THAT COMPILE COUNTY-LEVEL DATA, SUCH AS UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSINS COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS AND COMMUNITY COMMONS CHNA.ORG. TYPES OF DATA INCLUDE SELF-REPORTING OF HEALTH BEHAVIORS FROM LARGE, POPULATION- BASED SURVEYS SUCH AS THE BEHAVIORAL RISK FACTOR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM ("BRFSS"), AS WELL AS VITAL STATISTICS BASED ON BIRTH AND DEATH RECORDS. MOST OF THE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND HEALTH DATA IN THE CHANA ARE PROVIDED FOR EACH OF THE THREE COUNTIES AS WELL AS THE STATE OVERALL. HOWEVER, COUNTY-LEVEL DATA WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR ALL MEASURES. COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY ----------------------- IN ORDER TO GATHER QUANTITATIVE DATA THAT WERE NOT PROVIDED BY SECONDARY SOURCES AND TO UNDERSTAND PUBLIC PERCEPTIONS AROUND HEALTH ISSUES, A BRIEF 20-ITEM COMMUNITY SURVEY WAS DEVELOPED AND ADMINISTERED ONLINE TO RESIDENTS WITHIN THE THREE COUNTIES DURING FIVE WEEKS FROM MID-MAY 2015 THROUGH MID-JUNE 2015. THE SURVEY EXPLORED KEY HEALTH CONCERNS OF COMMUNITY RESIDENTS AS WELL AS THEIR PRIMARY PRIORITIES FOR SERVICES AND PROGRAMMING. PHCS REVIEWED AND PROVIDED FEEDBACK ON THE SURVEY. THE SURVEY WAS DISSEMINATED ONLINE THROUGH THE FOLLOWING CHANNELS: - PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM ALL-EMPLOYEE LISTSERV; - PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM COMMUNITY EDUCATION DATABASE; - PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM FITNESS CENTER MEMBERSHIP; AND - SOUTH BRUNSWICK TOWNSHIP SCHOOL DISTRICT EMPLOYEES. A TOTAL OF 1,308 RESPONDENTS WHO LIVE AND/OR WORK IN MERCER, MIDDLESEX, OR SOMERSET COUNTY COMPLETED THE SURVEY. AN ADDITIONAL 69 RESPONDENTS WHO WORKED AND LIVED IN OTHER COUNTIES COMPLETED THE SURVEY, BUT WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE SURVEY ANALYSES SINCE THEY WERE NOT PART OF THE GEOGRAPHIC SCOPE OF THIS ASSESSMENT. QUALITATIVE DATA: FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS --------------------------------------------- FROM APRIL AUGUST 2015, FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS WERE CONDUCTED WITH LEADERS FROM WIDE RANGE OF ORGANIZATIONS IN DIFFERENT SECTORS. IN TOTAL, 6 FOCUS GROUPS AND 13 KEY INFORMANT DISCUSSIONS WERE CONDUCTED WITH INDIVIDUALS FROM PHCSS SERVICE AREA.

THIRTEEN KEY INFORMANT DISCUSSIONS WERE CONDUCTED WITH INDIVIDUALS INCLUDING: - LOCAL PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS; - SOCIAL SERVICE PROVIDERS; - HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS; - COMMUNITY LEADERS; AND - PHCS STAFF.

FOCUS GROUP AND INTERVIEW DISCUSSIONS EXPLORED PARTICIPANTS PERCEPTIONS OF THEIR COMMUNITIES, PRIORITY HEALTH CONCERNS, PERCEPTIONS OF PUBLIC HEALTH, PREVENTION AND HEALTHCARE SERVICES, SUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE PROGRAMMING AND SERVICES TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES. A SEMI-STRUCTURED MODERATORS GUIDE WAS USED ACROSS ALL DISCUSSIONS TO ENSURE CONSISTENCY IN THE TOPICS COVERED. EACH FOCUS GROUP AND INTERVIEW WAS FACILITATED BY A TRAINED MODERATOR, AND DETAILED NOTES WERE TAKEN DURING CONVERSATIONS. ON AVERAGE, FOCUS GROUPS LASTED 90 MINUTES AND INCLUDED 6-12 PARTICIPANTS, WHILE INTERVIEWS LASTED APPROXIMATELY 30-60 MINUTES. PARTICIPANTS FOR THE FOCUS GROUPS WERE RECRUITED BY PHCS, WORKING WITH CLINICAL AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THE COLLECTED QUALITATIVE DATA WERE CODED AND ANALYZED THEMATICALLY, WHERE DATA ANALYSIS IDENTIFIED THEMES THAT EMERGED ACROSS ALL GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS. FREQUENCY AND INTENSITY OF DISCUSSION ON A SPECIFIC TOPIC WERE KEY INDICATORS USED FOR EXTRACTING MAIN THEMES. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, QUESTION 6B | AS A WAY TO ENSURE THAT PHCS IS ACHIEVING ITS MISSION AND MEETING THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY, AND IN FURTHERANCE OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, PHCS UNDERTOOK A CHNA PROCESS IN THE SPRING OF 2015.

| SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 3C | IN ADDITION TO THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES, PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM ("PHCS") USES OTHER FACTORS IN DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR FREE AND DISCOUNTED CARE. OTHER FACTORS TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY INCLUDE: - ASSET LEVEL; - MEDICAL INDIGENCY; - INSURANCE STATUS; - UNDERINSURANCE STATUS; AND - RESIDENCY. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO PHCS' ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS OUTLINED BELOW. CHARITY CARE ------------ CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE IS FREE OR REDUCED CHARGE CARE WHICH IS AVAILABLE TO PATIENTS WHO RECEIVE INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SERVICES AT ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY. CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS ESTABLISHED IN NJAC 10:52, SUBCHAPTERS 11, 12, 13. CHARITY CARE IS AVAILABLE TO NEW JERSEY RESIDENTS WHO: 1) HAVE NO HEALTH COVERAGE OR HAVE COVERAGE THAT PAYS ONLY PART OF THE BILL; 2) ARE INELIGIBLE FOR ANY PRIVATE OR GOVERNMENTAL SPONSORED COVERAGE (SUCH AS MEDICAID); AND 3) MEET THE INCOME AND ASSETS CRITERIA DESCRIBED BELOW. CHARITY CARE IS AVAILABLE TO THOSE THAT DO NOT QUALIFY FOR STATE OR FEDERAL PROGRAMS. INCOME CRITERIA - PATIENTS WITH FAMILY GROSS INCOME LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES ("FPG") ARE ELIGIBLE FOR 100% CHARITY CARE COVERAGE. PATIENTS WITH FAMILY GROSS INCOME GREATER THAN 200% BUT LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 300% OF FPG ARE ELIGIBLE FOR DISCOUNTED CARE UNDER THE CHARITY CARE PROGRAM. FREE OR DISCOUNTED CHARGES ARE DETERMINED BY THE FOLLOWING FEE SCHEDULE: INCOME AS A PERCENTAGE OF HHS POVERTY INCOME GUIDELINES ------------------------------------------------------- LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 200% -- 0% OF MEDICAID RATE GREATER THAN 200% BUT LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 225% -- 20% OF MEDICAID RATE GREATER THAN 225% BUT LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 250% -- 40% OF MEDICAID RATE GREATER THAN 250% BUT LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 275% -- 60% OF MEDICAID RATE GREATER THAN 275% BUT LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 300% -- 80% OF MEDICAID RATE GREATER THAN 300% -- UNINSURED DISCOUNT RATE AVAILABLE ASSETS CRITERIA - A PATIENT'S INDIVIDUAL ASSETS CANNOT EXCEED $7,500 AND FAMILY ASSETS CANNOT EXCEED $15,000 AS OF THE DATE OF SERVICE IN ORDER TO BE ELIGIBLE. CHARITY CARE MAY BE AVAILABLE TO NON-NEW JERSEY RESIDENTS, SUBJECT TO SPECIFIC PROVISIONS (SUCH AS EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITIONS). CHARITY CARE IS AVAILABLE ONLY FOR EMERGENCY OR OTHER MEDICALLY NECESSARY HOSPITAL CARE. SOME SERVICES SUCH AS PHYSICIAN FEES, ANESTHESIOLOGY FEES, AND RADIOLOGY INTERPRETATION ARE SEPARATE FROM HOSPITAL CHARGES AND MAY NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR REDUCTION. NEW JERSEY UNINSURED DISCOUNT ----------------------------- THE NEW JERSEY UNINSURED DISCOUNT (NJ LAW - BILL S-1797/A-2609) IS AVAILABLE TO UNINSURED PATIENTS WHOSE FAMILY GROSS INCOME IS LESS THAN 500% OF FPG. HOWEVER, UMCP HAS ELECTED TO APPLY THIS DISCOUNT TO ALL UNINSURED PATIENTS IRRESPECTIVE OF INCOME LEVEL OR RESIDENCY. UMCP OFFERS DISCOUNTED RATES TO ALL UNINSURED INDIVIDUALS. UNDER THIS PROGRAM, AN ELIGIBLE PATIENT WILL BE CHARGED AN AMOUNT NO GREATER THAN 115% OF THE MEDICARE FEE SCHEDULE. UNINSURED BILLING LIMITS ARE IN ACCORDANCE WITH NJ P.L. 2008 C60. MEDICAID -------- MEDICAID PROVIDES HEALTH COVERAGE TO MILLIONS OF AMERICANS, INCLUDING CHILDREN, PREGNANT WOMEN, PARENTS, SENIORS AND INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES. IN GENERAL FOR THIS BENEFIT PROGRAM, A PATIENT MUST BE A UNITED STATES CITIZEN, LEGAL ALIEN OR PERMANENT RESIDENT, AND HAVE LOW INCOME. ADDITIONALLY, PATIENTS MUST ALSO BE A RESIDENT OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY. THERE ARE SEVERAL TYPES OF MEDICAID AVAILABLE THROUGH THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH. UMCP FINANCIAL COUNSELORS WILL HELP DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY BASED UPON EACH PATIENT'S CIRCUMSTANCES. NJ FAMILYCARE ------------- NJ FAMILYCARE IS NEW JERSEY'S PUBLICLY FUNDED HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM WHICH INCLUDES CHIP, MEDICAID AND MEDICAID EXPANSION POPULATIONS. NJ FAMILYCARE IS A FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDED HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM CREATED TO HELP QUALIFIED NEW JERSEY RESIDENTS OF ANY AGE ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE HEALTH INSURANCE. NJ FAMILYCARE IS FOR PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE EMPLOYER INSURANCE. FINANCIAL ELIGIBILITY FOR INDIVIDUALS SEEKING ELIGIBILITY FOR NJ FAMILYCARE WILL BE BASED ON THEIR MODIFIED ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME OR MAGI. NJFAMILYCARE ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES ARE ESTABLISHED BY THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY AND CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.NJFAMILYCARE.ORG. A PATIENT CAN BE PRESUMED ELIGIBLE FOR NJFAMILYCARE ONLY ONCE IN A TWELVE MONTH PERIOD. CATASTROPHIC ILLNESS IN CHILDREN'S RELIEF FUND ---------------------------------------------- THE CATASTROPHIC ILLNESS IN CHILDREN RELIEF FUND PROVIDES FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO FAMILIES OF CHILDREN WITH A CATASTROPHIC ILLNESS. IN ORDER TO BE ELIGIBLE HOSPITAL EXPENSES MUST EXCEED 10% OF THE FAMILY'S GROSS INCOME, PLUS 15% OF ANY EXCESS INCOME OVER $100,000, THE CHILD MUST HAVE BEEN 21 YEARS OR YOUNGER WHEN THE MEDICAL EXPENSES WERE INCURRED AND THE FAMILY MUST HAVE LIVED IN NEW JERSEY FOR 3 MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE DATE OF APPLICATION. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND AT THE FOLLOWING WEBSITE: WWW.STATE.NJ.US/HUMANSERVICES/CICRF/HOME NEW JERSEY VICTIMS OF CRIME COMPENSATION OFFICE ----------------------------------------------- THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY HAS ESTABLISHED THE NEW JERSEY VICTIMS OF CRIME COMPENSATION OFFICE TO COMPENSATE VICTIMS OF CRIME FOR LOSSES AND EXPENSES, INCLUDING CERTAIN MEDICAL EXPENSES, RESULTING FROM CERTAIN CRIMINAL ACTS. IN ORDER TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR NEW JERSEY VICTIMS OF CRIME COMPENSATION OFFICE THE CRIME MUST HAVE OCCURRED IN NEW JERSEY OR MUST RELATE TO A NEW JERSEY RESIDENT VICTIMIZED OUTSIDE OF THE STATE, THE VICTIM MUST HAVE REPORTED THE CRIME TO POLICE WITHIN 9 MONTHS AND VICTIM MUST COOPERATE WITH THE INVESTIGATION AND PROSECUTION OF THE CRIME. THE CLAIM MUST BE FILED WITHIN 3 YEARS OF THE DATE OF THE CRIME AND THE PATIENT MUST BE AN INNOCENT VICTIM OF THE CRIME. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.NJ.GOV/OAG/NJVICTIMS/INDEX.HTML AMOUNT GENERALLY BILLED ("AGB") ------------------------------- PURSUANT TO INTERNAL REVENUE CODE 501(R)(5), IN THE CASE OF EMERGENCY OR OTHER MEDICALLY NECESSARY CARE, FAP-ELIGIBLE PATIENTS WILL NOT BE CHARGED MORE THAN AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS INSURANCE COVERING SUCH CARE. ALL PATIENTS ELIGIBLE FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THIS FAP MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR THIS DISCOUNT. THIS INCLUDES UNINSURED PATIENTS AND UNDERINSURED PATIENTS IF THEIR FAMILY GROSS INCOME IS GREATER THAN 200% BUT LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 500% OF FPG. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 6A | THE ORGANIZATION IS NOT REQUIRED TO PREPARE A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT. HOWEVER, THE ORGANIZATION DOES RELEASE A PROGRESS REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. THIS PROGRESS REPORT CAN BE FOUND ON THE ORGANIZATION'S WEBSITE. THE PROGRESS REPORT INCLUDES INFORMATION REGARDING COMMUNITY HEALTH AND DESCRIBES SOME OF THE COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND SERVICES COMPLETED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART I; QUESTION 7 | WORKSHEET 2 WAS USED FOR THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART II | COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN BY THIS ORGANIZATION IMPROVE THE MEDICAL AND SOCIOECONOMIC WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITIES IN ITS CARE. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH SERVICE ON STATE AND REGIONAL ADVOCACY COMMITTEES AND BOARDS, VOLUNTEERISM WITH LOCAL COMMUNITY-BASED NON-PROFIT ADVOCACY GROUPS, PARTICIPATION IN CONFERENCES AND OTHER EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES TO PROMOTE UNDERSTANDING OF THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH CONCERNS. THIS ORGANIZATION PROVIDES EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS, CONDUCTS COMMUNITY HEALTH FAIRS AND HOLDS HEALTH EDUCATION SEMINARS AND OUTREACH SESSIONS FOR ITS PATIENTS AND FOR COMMUNITY PROVIDERS. PRESENTATIONS ARE PROVIDED BY PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND OTHER HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS. IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING DIRECT PATIENT CHARITY CARE AND IN FURTHERANCE OF ITS EXEMPT PURPOSE TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY, THE SYSTEM PROVIDES COMMUNITY EDUCATION, OUTREACH, LECTURES, TRAININGS, HEALTH SCREENINGS AND SPECIAL EVENTS TO PATIENTS RESIDING IN MERCER, MIDDLESEX AND SOMERSET COUNTIES. MAJOR PROGRAMS INCLUDE SPECIAL HEALTH OUTREACH EFFORTS DIRECTED TO DIVERSE POPULATIONS. THE SYSTEM IS ALSO LIAISONED WITH PARTNERSHIPS IN THE LOCAL YMCAs, YWCAs, SCHOOLS SENIOR CENTERS, CORPORATIONS, PLACES OF WORSHIP AND PUBLIC LIBRARIES FOR A VARIETY OF HEALTH ISSUES ACROSS ONES LIFESPAN. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A; QUESTIONS 2, 3 & 4 | BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED USING THE PROVIDERS' BAD DEBT EXPENSE FROM ITS AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDES UNPAID BALANCES FROM PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE AND UNPAID BALANCES DUE RELATING TO COPAYMENTS, COINSURANCES AND DEDUCTIBLES. UNDER OUR SELF-PAY POLICY ALL UNINSURED PATIENT BILLS ARE DISCOUNTED TO 115% OF THE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE AMOUNT WHICH APPROXIMATES LESS THAN COSTS. THE DISCOUNT IS RECORDED AS CONTRA REVENUE. ONLY THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE NET AMOUNT (CHARGES LESS DISCOUNT) AND AMOUNT PAID IS RECORDED AS BAD DEBT. HENCE THE BAD DEBT REPORTED ON THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS APPROXIMATES COSTS. PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, A NEW JERSEY NONPROFIT CORPORATION ("PHCS") AND ITS AFFILIATES CONSTITUTE A TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM. PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HOLDING, INC. IS THE TAX-EXEMPT PARENT ENTITY OF THE SYSTEM. AN INDEPENDENT CPA FIRM AUDITED THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HOLDING, INC. AND ITS AFFILIATES ("PHCSH") FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND DECEMBER 31, 2016; RESPECTIVELY. THE FOLLOWING FOOTNOTES, WHICH ADDRESS THE ORGANIZATION'S BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE, ARE INCLUDED IN THE ORGANIZATION'S 2017 AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: REIMBURSEMENT ------------- PHCSH RECORDS GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE ON AN ACCRUAL BASIS AT ESTABLISHED RATES, WITH CONTRACTUAL AND OTHER ALLOWANCES DEDUCTED FROM SUCH AMOUNTS TO DETERMINE NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE, BEFORE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. PHCSH MAINTAINS POLICIES AND RECORDS TO IDENTIFY AND MONITOR THESE CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCES AND ITS LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE. THESE RECORDS INCLUDE THE AMOUNT OF DEDUCTIONS FROM GROSS REVENUE DUE TO QUALIFIED SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THE STATE OF NEW JERSEYS CHARITY CARE GUIDELINES. THE PROCESS FOR ESTIMATING THE COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS AND JUDGMENTS. FOR EACH BUSINESS ENTITY, THE SYSTEM HAS IMPLEMENTED A MONTHLY STANDARDIZED APPROACH TO ESTIMATE AND REVIEW THE COLLECTABILITY OF RECEIVABLES BY SERVICES BASED ON (INPATIENT VERSUS OUTPATIENT) THE PAYER CLASSIFICATION AND THE PERIOD FROM WHICH THE RECEIVABLES HAVE BEEN OUTSTANDING. ACCOUNT BALANCES ARE WRITTEN OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE OR BAD DEBT EXPENSE (FOR SELF-PAY BALANCES) WHEN MANAGEMENT FEELS IT IS PROBABLE THE RECEIVABLE WILL NOT BE RECOVERED. HISTORICAL COLLECTION AND PAYER REIMBURSEMENT EXPERIENCE IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE ESTIMATION PROCESS RELATED TO RESERVES FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. IN ADDITION, THE SYSTEM ASSESSES THE CURRENT STATE OF ITS BILLING FUNCTIONS IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY ANY KNOWN COLLECTION OR REIMBURSEMENT ISSUES AND ASSESS THE IMPACT, IF ANY, ON RESERVE ESTIMATES. CHARITY CARE ------------ THE SYSTEM PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA DEFINED BY THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SENIOR SERVICES ("DOHSS") WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. THE MAJORITY OF PATIENTS QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE WHERE HOUSEHOLD INCOME IS LESS THAN 200% OF THE FAMILY FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES OR THEIR FINANCIAL CONDITION IS SUCH THAT REQUIRING PAYMENT WOULD IMPOSE A HARDSHIP ON THE PATIENT. BECAUSE THE SYSTEM DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, THEY ARE NOT REPORTED AS REVENUE. THE SYSTEMS RECORDS IDENTIFY AND MONITOR THE LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE IT PROVIDES AND THE AMOUNT OF CHARGES FOREGONE FOR SERVICES AND SUPPLIES FURNISHED. THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH CHARITY CARE DURING THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND 2016 WERE APPROXIMATELY $7,576,000 AND $6,903,000; RESPECTIVELY. THE ESTIMATED COST OF PROVIDING CHARITY SERVICES IS BASED ON VALUING ALL CHARITY CARE CLAIMS USING THE SYSTEMS DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM THAT UTILIZES COST TO CHARGE RATIOS DERIVED FROM THE MOST RECENTLY FILED MEDICARE COST REPORTS. DOHSS CHARITY CARE GUIDELINES REQUIRE PARTICIPATION AND SPECIFIC DOCUMENTATION OF THE PATIENT IN ORDER TO BE IDENTIFIED AS A CHARITY CARE ACCOUNT. IN ADDITION TO CHARITY CARE, THE SYSTEM PROVIDES A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT THAT INCLUDES COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAMS, SUBSIDIZED MEDICAL EDUCATION COSTS AND UNREIMBURSED COSTS OF PROVIDING CARE TO MEDICARE AND MEDICAID BENEFICIARIES. THE NEW JERSEY HEALTH CARE SUBSIDY FUND WAS ESTABLISHED FOR VARIOUS PURPOSES INCLUDING THE DISTRIBUTION OF CHARITY CARE AND HOSPITAL RELIEF FUND PAYMENTS TO HOSPITALS STATEWIDE. AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND 2016, THE SYSTEM RECEIVED SUBSIDY AMOUNTS OF $384,000 AND $835,000; RESPECTIVELY, WHICH ARE INCLUDED IN NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. ADDITIONALLY, THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY ESTABLISHED A MENTAL HEALTH SUBSIDY FUND TO PAY FOR SPECIFIC BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. THE SYSTEM RECEIVED $1,257,000 FOR THESE SERVICES IN BOTH 2017 AND 2016. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 8 | MEDICARE COSTS WERE DERIVED FROM THE 2017 MEDICARE COST REPORT. THE ORGANIZATION'S POSITION IS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS SHOULD BE INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I BUT ARE NOT. AS OUTLINED MORE FULLY BELOW THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT THESE SERVICES AND RELATED COSTS PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AND ARE RENDERED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITABLE TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSES AND MISSION IN PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUAL'S IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN OR ABILITY TO PAY AND CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD PROMULGATED BY THE IRS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IS THE CURRENT STANDARD FOR A HOSPITAL FOR RECOGNITION AS A TAX-EXEMPT AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC") 501(C)(3). THE ORGANIZATION IS RECOGNIZED AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER 501(C)(3) OF THE IRC. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO DEFINITION IN THE TAX CODE FOR THE TERM "CHARITABLE" A REGULATION PROMULGATED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY PROVIDES SOME GUIDANCE AND STATES THAT "[T]HE TERM CHARITABLE IS USED IN SECTION 501(C)(3) IN ITS GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE,PROVIDES EXAMPLES OF CHARITABLE PURPOSES, INCLUDING THE RELIEF OF THE POOR OR UNPRIVILEGED; THE PROMOTION OF SOCIAL WELFARE; AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION, RELIGION, AND SCIENCE. NOTE IT DOES NOT EXPLICITLY ADDRESS THE ACTIVITIES OF HOSPITALS. IN THE ABSENCE OF EXPLICIT STATUTORY OR REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS APPLYING THE TERM "CHARITABLE" TO HOSPITALS, IT HAS BEEN LEFT TO THE IRS TO DETERMINE THE CRITERIA HOSPITALS MUST MEET TO QUALIFY AS IRC 501(C)(3) CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS. THE ORIGINAL STANDARD WAS KNOWN AS THE CHARITY CARE STANDARD. THIS STANDARD WAS REPLACED BY THE IRS WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD WHICH IS THE CURRENT STANDARD. CHARITY CARE STANDARD IN 1956, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 56-185, WHICH ADDRESSED THE REQUIREMENTS HOSPITALS NEEDED TO MEET IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR IRC 501(C)(3) STATUS. ONE OF THESE REQUIREMENTS IS KNOWN AS THE "CHARITY CARE STANDARD." UNDER THE STANDARD, A HOSPITAL HAD TO PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY FOR IT. A HOSPITAL THAT EXPECTED FULL PAYMENT DID NOT, ACCORDING TO THE RULING, PROVIDE CHARITY CARE BASED ON THE FACT THAT SOME PATIENTS ULTIMATELY FAILED TO PAY. THE RULING EMPHASIZED THAT A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE DID NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THAT A HOSPITAL HAD FAILED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT SINCE THAT LEVEL COULD REFLECT ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE SUCH CARE. THE RULING ALSO NOTED THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED COMMUNITY HOSPITALS WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY AS CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY, AND A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE WOULD NOT AFFECT A HOSPITAL'S EXEMPT STATUS IF IT WAS DUE TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY'S LACK OF CHARITABLE DEMANDS. COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IN 1969, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH "REMOVE[D]" FROM REVENUE RULING 56-185 "THE REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO CARING FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT RATES BELOW COST." UNDER THE STANDARD DEVELOPED IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE "COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD," HOSPITALS ARE JUDGED ON WHETHER THEY PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF A BROAD CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE RULING INVOLVED A HOSPITAL THAT ONLY ADMITTED INDIVIDUALS WHO COULD PAY FOR THE SERVICES (BY THEMSELVES, PRIVATE INSURANCE, OR PUBLIC PROGRAMS SUCH AS MEDICARE), BUT OPERATED A FULL-TIME EMERGENCY ROOM THAT WAS OPEN TO EVERYONE. THE IRS RULED THAT THE HOSPITAL QUALIFIED AS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION BECAUSE IT PROMOTED THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE IN ITS COMMUNITY. THE IRS REASONED THAT BECAUSE THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH WAS A CHARITABLE PURPOSE ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY, IT FELL WITHIN THE "GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE" OF THE TERM "CHARITABLE," AS REQUIRED BY TREAS. REG. 1.501(C)(3)-1(D)(2). THE IRS RULING STATED THAT THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH, LIKE THE RELIEF OF POVERTY AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RELIGION, IS ONE OF THE PURPOSES IN THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY THAT IS DEEMED BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE EVEN THOUGH THE CLASS OF BENEFICIARIES ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A DIRECT BENEFIT FROM ITS ACTIVITIES DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS INDIGENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDED THAT THE CLASS IS NOT SO SMALL THAT ITS RELIEF IS NOT OF BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE IRS CONCLUDED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS "PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF A CLASS OF PERSONS THAT IS BROAD ENOUGH TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY" BECAUSE ITS EMERGENCY ROOM WAS OPEN TO ALL AND IT PROVIDED CARE TO EVERYONE WHO COULD PAY, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT. OTHER CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HOSPITAL THAT THE IRS HIGHLIGHTED INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING: ITS SURPLUS FUNDS WERE USED TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, EXPAND HOSPITAL FACILITIES, AND ADVANCE MEDICAL TRAINING, EDUCATION, AND RESEARCH; IT WAS CONTROLLED BY A BOARD OF TRUSTEES THAT CONSISTED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS; AND HOSPITAL MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES WERE AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS. THE ORGANIZATION'S POSITION IS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS SHOULD BE INCLUDBALE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEUDLE H, PART I BUT ARE NOT. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION'S ("AHA") POSITION IS THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THIS ORGANIZATION AGREES WITH THE AHA POSITION. AS OUTLINED IN THE AHA LETTER TO THE IRS DATED AUGUST 21, 2007 WITH RESPECT TO THE FIRST PUBLISHED DRAFT OF THE NEW FORM 990 AND SCHEDULE H, THE AHA FELT THAT THE IRS SHOULD INCORPORATE THE FULL VALUE OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT THAT HOSPITALS PROVIDE BY COUNTING MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: - PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY AND SERVING MEDICARE PATIENTS IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD. - MEDICARE, LIKE MEDICAID, DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE. RECENTLY REPORTS INDICATE THAT MEDICARE REIMBURSES HOSPITALS ON AVERAGE APPROXIMATELY 92 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR THEY SPEND TO TAKE CARE OF MEDICARE PATIENTS. THE SYSTEM'S EXPERIENCE IS 78.1%. - MANY MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 46 PERCENT OF MEDICARE SPENDING IS FOR BENEFICIARIES WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MANY OF THOSE MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID -- SO CALLED ELIGIBLES." THERE IS EVERY COMPELLING PUBLIC POLICY REASON TO TREAT MEDICARE AND MEDICAID UNDERPAYMENTS SIMILARLY FOR PURPOSES OF A HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND INCLUDE THESE COSTS ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT MUST BE SHOULDERED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE COMMUNITY'S ELDERLY AND POOR. THESE UNDERPAYMENTS REPRESENT A REAL COST OF SERVING THE COMMUNITY AND SHOULD COUNT AS A QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT. BOTH THE AHA AND THIS ORGANIZATION ALSO FEEL THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT IS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. LIKE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT (SHORTFALLS), THERE ALSO ARE COMPELLING REASONS THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT SHOULD BE COUNTED AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS FOLLOWS: - A SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, WHO, FOR MANY REASONS, DECLINE TO COMPLETE THE FORMS REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY FOR HOSPITALS' CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. A 2006 CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ("CBO") REPORT, NONPROFIT HOSPITALS AND THE PROVISION OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS, CITED TWO STUDIES INDICATING THAT "THE GREAT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT WAS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WITH INCOMES BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE." - THE REPORT ALSO NOTED THAT A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. UNLIKE BAD DEBT IN OTHER INDUSTRIES, HOSPITAL BAD DEBT IS COMPLICATED BY THE FACT THAT HOSPITALS FOLLOW THEIR MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TREAT EVERY PATIENT THAT COMES THROUGH THEIR EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. PATIENTS WHO HAVE OUTSTANDING BILLS ARE NOT TURNED AWAY, UNLIKE OTHER INDUSTRIES. BAD DEBT IS FURTHER COMPLICATED BY THE AUDITING INDUSTRY'S STANDARDS ON REPORTING CHARITY CARE. MANY PATIENTS CANNOT OR DO NOT PROVIDE THE NECESSARY, EXTENSIVE DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED TO BE DEEMED CHARITY CARE BY AUDITORS. AS A RESULT, THE REPORT STATES ROUGHLY 40% OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. - THE CBO CONCLUDED THAT ITS FINDINGS "SUPPORT THE VALIDITY OF THE USE OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE [BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE] AS A MEASURE OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS" ASSUMING THE FINDINGS ARE GENERALIZABLE NATIONWIDE; THE EXPERIENCE OF HOSPITALS AROUND THE NATION REINFORCES THAT THEY ARE GENERALIZABLE. AS OUTLINED BY THE AHA, DESPITE THE HOSPITALS' BEST EFFORTS AND DUE DILIG |
| SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B; QUESTION 9B | THE PRIMARY MISSION OF THE ORGANIZATION IS TO IMPROVE IS TO IMPROVE THE OVERALL HEALTH STATUS OF THE COMMUNITY IT SERVES. PHCS IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING HIGH QUALITY AND AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE TO ALL INDIVIDUALS WHO SEEK SERVICES. THEREFORE, THE ORGANIZATION MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO WORK WITH ITS PATIENTS TO HELP IN THE PAYMENT OF BILLS. THIS ASSISTANCE INCLUDES PROVIDING PATIENTS WITH ACCESS TO A FINANCIAL COUNSELOR, ASSISTING NEW JERSEY STATE RESIDENTS OBTAIN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND ESTABLISHING PAYMENT PLANS FOR EASE OF PAYMENT. ALL PATIENTS WILL BE SCREENED BY A PHCS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE COUNSELOR TO DETERMINE IF THEY QUALIFY FOR INSURANCE PRIOR TO THE DETERMINATION OF FAP-ELIGIBILITY. THE PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICES ("PFS") DEPARTMENT ADHERES TO ALL FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND PFS DEEMED CONTRACTUAL REGULATIONS AND STANDARDS TO ENSURE PROPER AND LEGAL OPERATIONS. THIS ENCOMPASSES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, THE FOLLOWING: 1) BILLING PROCEDURES, BOTH INSURANCE AND INPATIENT; 2) COLLECTIONS, BOTH BAD DEBT AND MEDICARE BAD DEBT; 3) BAD DEBT RECOVERY, BOTH "REGULAR" BAD DEBT AND MEDICARE BAD DEBT; AND 4) MAINTENANCE OF THE CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECURITY OF PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION. PHCS WILL NOT ENGAGE IN ANY ACTIONS THAT DISCOURAGE INDIVIDUALS FROM SEEKING EMERGENCY MEDICAL CARE, SUCH AS BY DEMANDING THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENTS PAY BEFORE RECEIVING TREATMENT FOR EMERGENCY MEDICAL CONDITIONS OR BY PERMITTING DEBT COLLECTION ACTIVITIES IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT OR OTHER AREAS WHERE SUCH ACTIVITIES COULD INTERFERE WITH THE PROVISION OF EMERGENCY CARE ON A NON-DISCRIMINATORY BASIS. PHCS UTILIZES PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATIONS FOR PATIENTS IN ITS EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND ITS MATERNITY CLINICS. IF A PATIENT IS PRESUMPTIVELY DETERMINED TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR LESS THAN THE MOST GENEROUS ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE UNDER THE FAP, PHCS WILL NOTIFY THE PATIENT, IN WRITING, REGARDING THE BASIS FOR THE PRESUMPTIVE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION AND HOW THEY MAY APPLY FOR MORE GENEROUS ASSISTANCE. A COPY OF THE PLS WILL ALSO BE PROVIDED IN THESE INSTANCES. IN ACCORDANCE WITH INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 501(R)(6), PHCS DOES NOT ENGAGE IN ANY EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION ACTIONS ("ECAS") PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE "NOTIFICATION PERIOD". THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD IS DEFINED AS A 120-DAY PERIOD, WHICH BEGINS ON THE DATE OF THE 1ST POST-DISCHARGE BILLING STATEMENT, IN WHICH NO ECAS MAY BE INITIATED AGAINST THE PATIENT. PHCS MAY AUTHORIZE THIRD PARTIES TO INITIATE ECAS ON DELINQUENT PATIENT ACCOUNTS AFTER THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD. PHCS WILL ENSURE REASONABLE EFFORTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO DETERMINE WHETHER AN INDIVIDUAL IS ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. PHCS WILL TAKE THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS AT LEAST 30 DAYS PRIOR TO INITIATING ANY ECA: 1) THE PATIENT HAS BEEN PROVIDED WITH WRITTEN NOTICE WHICH: - INDICATES THAT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE FOR ELIGIBLE PATIENTS; - IDENTIFIES THE ECAS THAT UMCP INTENDS TO INITIATE TO OBTAIN PAYMENT FOR THE CARE; AND - STATES A DEADLINE AFTER WHICH SUCH ECAS MAY BE INITIATED. 2) THE PATIENT HAS RECEIVED A COPY OF THE PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY WITH THIS WRITTEN NOTIFICATION; AND 3) REASONABLE EFFORTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO ORALLY NOTIFY THE INDIVIDUAL ABOUT THE FAP AND HOW THE INDIVIDUAL MAY OBTAIN ASSISTANCE WITH THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE APPLICATION PROCESS. SUBSEQUENT TO THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD PHCS, OR ANY THIRD PARTIES ACTING ON THEIR BEHALF, MAY INITIATE THE FOLLOWING ECAS AGAINST A PATIENT FOR AN UNPAID BALANCE IF THE PATIENT HASN'T APPLIED FOR OR IS DEEMED INELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: 1) REPORTING ADVERSE INFORMATION ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL TO CONSUMER CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES OR CREDIT BUREAUS; 2) PLACING A LIEN ON AN INDIVIDUAL'S PROPERTY; 3) FORECLOSING ON AN INDIVIDUAL'S REAL PROPERTY; 4) COMMENCING A CIVIL ACTION AGAINST AN INDIVIDUAL; AND 5) CAUSING AN INDIVIDUAL TO BE SUBJECT TO A WRIT OF BODY ATTACHMENT. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART VI; QUESTION 2 | IN AN EFFORT TO ASSESS THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY PHCS CONDUCTED ITS SECOND COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT ("CHNA") IN 2015. THE CHNA WAS GUIDED BY A PARTICIPATORY, COLLABORATIVE APPROACH, WHICH EXAMINED HEALTH IN ITS BROADEST SENSE. THIS PROCESS INCLUDED INTEGRATING EXISTING SECONDARY DATA ON SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND HEALTH ISSUES IN THE REGION WITH QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION FROM A COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY AND QUALITATIVE INFORMATION FROM 6 FOCUS GROUPS WITH COMMUNITY RESIDENTS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS AND 13 INTERVIEWS WITH COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS. FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS WERE CONDUCTED WITH INDIVIDUALS FROM THE THREE COUNTIES THAT COMPRISE THE PCHS SERVICE REGION, WITH INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING PUBLIC HEALTH, SENIORS, PHCS STAFF AND PROVIDERS, EMS PROVIDERS, SOCIAL SERVICE, HEALTHCARE, AND MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS AND THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT. THE SURVEY WAS ADMINISTERED ONLINE AND DISSEMINATED THROUGH MULTIPLE CHANNELS TO INDIVIDUALS WHO EITHER LIVE OR WORK IN MERCER, MIDDLESEX AND SOMERSET COUNTIES. IN ADDITION TO THE CHNA PROCESS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND IN SCHEDULE H, SECTION B, QUESTIONS 1-12 AND SECTION C, PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HAS PREVIOUSLY HIRED AN OUTSIDE FIRM TO CONDUCT A QUANTITATIVE CONSUMER RESEARCH STUDY OF CURRENT AND FUTURE COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE NEEDS AROUND PRINCETON, NEW JERSEY AREA. THE INTENT OF THE STUDY WAS TO UNCOVER CONSUMER INSIGHTS THAT WILL AID THE HOSPITAL'S PLANNING AND STRATEGIC DIRECTION THROUGH BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE CHANGING POPULATION - PARTICULARLY FROM THE STANDPOINT OF THE POPULATION'S RACIAL/ETHNIC MIX. THIS WAS A FORWARD-LOOKING STUDY THAT WOULD SUPPORT OTHER PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM INITIATIVES THAT ADDRESS A POTENTIAL SHIFT IN THE POPULATION'S CULTURAL DYNAMICS WHEN IT MOVED TO THE NEW UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER OF PRINCETON AT PLAINSBORO. AS WELL, PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM ANTICIPATED THE COMPETITIVE COMPLEXION TO CHANGE AND INTENSIFY. IT IS THEREFORE THE HOPE THAT THESE AND OTHER INSIGHTS WILL AID PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM TO DEVELOP MORE COMMUNITY-CENTERED HEALTHCARE SERVICES WHICH WILL IN TURN INSPIRE A SUSTAINABLE LEADERSHIP POSITION. PHCS CONTINUALLY ASSESSES ITS COMMUNITY AND THE NEEDS WITHIN ITS PRIMARY SERVICE AREA. IN ITS 2017 PROGRESS REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY PHCS REPORTED THE FOLLOWING: COMMUNITY HEALTH & VOLUNTEERISM ------------------------------- IN 2017, PHCS COMMUNITY EDUCATION & OUTREACH HOSTED OR PARTICIPATED IN 2,000 COMMUNITY PROGRAMS, INCLUDING SCREENINGS, CLASSES AND HEALTH FAIRS THAT REACHED MORE THAN 41,000 AREA RESIDENTS, A 3 PERCENT INCREASE OVER 2016. AMONG THE PROGRAMS WERE 82 FREE HEALTH FAIRS AND SCREENINGS THAT OFFERED COMMUNITY MEMBERS BLOOD PRESSURE, GLUCOSE, CHOLESTEROL AND OTHER TESTING, AS WELL AS THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WITH PHCS PHYSICIANS AND HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. PHCS INSTRUCTORS PROVIDED 693 CPR AND FIRST AID CLASSES. PHCS ALSO HELD 73 EVENTS AT AREA SENIOR CENTERS AND ACTIVE ADULT COMMUNITIES, SERVING 2,366 SENIORS. PHCS CONTINUED ITS PROGRAMS FOR EMTS IN 2017. A TOTAL OF 232 ASPIRING EMTS COMPLETED THEIR OBSERVATION HOURS IN THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE AT UMCP. IN ADDITION, 133 EMTS ATTENDED CONTINUING EDUCATION CLASSES ON TOPICS SUCH AS BURN INJURIES, ELDER ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID TRAINING. IN 2017, A TOTAL OF 749 VOLUNTEERS SERVED PHCS, DONATING A COMBINED 70,000 HOURS. THE ANIMAL ASSISTED ACTIVITIES PROGRAM - SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS PET THERAPY - CONTINUED ITS GREAT WORK THROUGHOUT THE HEALTH SYSTEM. PETTING A DOG RELEASES GOOD DE-STRESSING BRAIN CHEMICALS AND BRINGS SMILES TO MANY PEOPLE. THE TEAMS TRAVELED TO THE CANCER INFUSION CENTER, THE CLINIC, THE CENTER FOR EATING DISORDERS CARE AND VARIOUS NURSING FLOORS. OTHER TEAMS WORKED CLOSELY WITH THERAPISTS AT PRINCETON HOUSE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH IN A PROGRAM CALLED ANIMAL-ASSISTED INTERVENTION (AAI). THE INITIATIVE INTRODUCES DOGS TO CERTAIN THERAPY PROGRAMS TO HELP INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE DIFFICULTY EXPRESSING THEIR FEELINGS. THIS YEAR THE PROGRAM ADDED FIVE NEW DOGS AND FIVE NEW DOGHANDLERS, BRINGING THE PROGRAM'S TOTAL TO 19 DOG TEAMS - SERVING APPROXIMATELY 1,000 HOURS. IN 2017, 12 COLLEGE-AGED VOLUNTEERS PARTICIPATED IN PHCS' PRE-HEALTH PROFESSIONALS PROGRAM, A 10-WEEK SUMMER PROGRAM FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN HEALTHCARE CAREERS. STUDENTS VOLUNTEERED IN VARIOUS CLINICAL UNITS AND IN THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE. THE GUEST RELATIONS PROGRAM EXPANDED IN 2017, ADDING 10 NEW VOLUNTEERS TO GREET GUESTS AND ASSIST WITH PATIENT WAYFINDING AT UMCP. BY YEAR'S END, A TOTAL OF 63 VOLUNTEERS WERE PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM. PHCS' AWARD-WINNING SERIES OF ONLINE CHATS, CALLED PRINCETON HEALTH ON DEMAND (ON THE VIDEO STREAMING NETWORK USTREAM), CONTINUED IN 2017 WITH 13 BROADCASTS ON TOPICS INCLUDING DIABETES, WOMEN AND DRINKING, TREATMENTS FOR LIVER CANCER, COMMON FOOT AND ANKLE PROBLEMS AND FALL PREVENTION. THE ONLINE FORMAT PROVIDES PARTICIPANTS WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO VIEW A HEALTH LECTURE FROM THE COMFORT AND PRIVACY OF THEIR OWN HOME. PRINCETON HEALTH'S ONDEMAND CHANNEL DREW 2,306 VIEWERS IN 2017. PRINCETON HEALTH CAMPUS UPDATE ------------------------------ THIS YEAR, PHCS CLOSED ON THE SALE OF A 38-ACRE PARCEL OF LAND ON THE HOSPITAL CAMPUS. THE COMPANY THAT BOUGHT IT WILL DEVELOP AN INDEPENDENT LIVING COMMUNITY DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE 55 YEARS AND OLDER. A TOTAL OF 45 TOWNHOMES AND 260 RENTAL APARTMENTS WILL BE BUILT, RANGING FROM STUDIOS TO THREE-BEDROOM UNITS. THE DEVELOPMENT INCLUDES MULTIPLE DINING VENUES, A SPA AND OUTDOOR RECREATION AREAS. THE DEVELOPERS BROKE GROUND IN THE FALL AND ANTICIPATE COMPLETING THE PROJECT IN APPROXIMATELY TWO YEARS. DEVELOPERS OF THE ASSISTED LIVING, ADULT DAY CARE AND CHILD CARE FACILITIES COMPLETED THE CONSTRUCTION OF A SHARED STORM-WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND THE EXTENSION OF A SHARED UTILITY NETWORK. IN ADDITION, PHCS PLANS TO BUILD A HELIPAD ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE PATIENT TOWER, PROVIDING EASY ACCESS TO THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE FOR EMERGENCY PATIENT TRANSFERS TO AND FROM THE HOSPITAL CAMPUS. THE HELIPAD TRANSPORT WILL BE OPERATED AND MANAGED BY PENNSTAR, A PROGRAM OFFERED BY PENN MEDICINE. DESIGN IS UNDER WAY, WITH CONSTRUCTION EXPECTED TO START BY SUMMER OF 2018 AND COMPLETED BY FALL OF 2018. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART VI; QUESTION 3 | PHCS ACTIVELY INFORMS AND EDUCATES PATIENTS ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND PROMOTES ITS PATIENT FRIENDLY BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCESS THROUGH MULTIPLE CHANNELS. THIS IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF ITS CODE OF ETHICS AND VALUE STATEMENT. THE ORGANIZATION INFORMS AND EDUCATES PATIENTS WHO MAY BE BILLED FOR PATIENT CARE ABOUT THEIR ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS: PHCS HAS CREATED A PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY ("PLS") OF ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY ("FAP"). A PLS IS A WRITTEN STATEMENT THAT NOTIFIES AN INDIVIDUAL THAT THE HOSPITAL FACILITY OFFERS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE FAP AND PROVIDES ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IN LANGUAGE THAT IS CLEAR, CONCISE AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND. PHCS' FAP, APPLICATION AND PLS ARE AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH AND IN THE PRIMARY LANGUAGE OF POPULATIONS WITH LIMITED PROFICIENCY IN ENGLISH ("LEP") THAT CONSTITUTE THE LESSER OF 1,000 INDIVIDUALS OR 5% OF THE ORGANIZATION'S PRIMARY SERVICE AREA. ADDITIONALLY, PHCS PROVIDES LANGUAGE INTERPRETING AND TRANSLATION SERVICES, AND PROVIDES INFORMATION TO PATIENTS WITH VISION, SPEECH, HEARING OR COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENTS IN A MANNER THAT MEETS THE PATIENT'S NEEDS. THE FAP, APPLICATION AND PLS ARE ALL POSTED ON THE FOLLOWING PHCS WEBSITE: WWW.PRINCETONHCS.ORG, AND ARE AVAILABLE FREE OF CHARGE, UPON REQUEST. PAPER COPIES OF THESE DOCUMENTS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE IN VARIOUS AREAS THROUGHOUT THE HOSPITAL, WHICH INCLUDE THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AND ADMISSION/REGISTRATION DEPARTMENTS. SIGNS AND DISPLAYS, TO INFORM PATIENTS ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, ARE POSTED IN EMERGENCY ROOMS AND THE ADMITTING/REGISTRATION DEPARTMENTS. THESE SIGNS ARE POSTED IN ENGLISH AND IN SPANISH. ALL PATIENTS WILL BE OFFERED A COPY OF THE PLS AS PART OF THE INTAKE OR DISCHARGE PROCESS. THE AVAILABILITY OF ALL PROGRAMS APPEARS ON BILLING STATEMENTS. EACH BILLING STATEMENT INCLUDES CONSPICUOUS WRITTEN NOTICE WHICH INFORMS THE RECIPIENT ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THE STATEMENT ALSO INCLUDES THE WEBSITE OF WHERE AN INDIVIDUAL CAN OBTAIN COPIES OF THE FAP, APPLICATION AND PLS. ADDITIONALLY, IT INCLUDES THE TELEPHONE NUMBER THAT PATIENTS CAN CALL IF THEY HAVE QUESTIONS REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND THE APPLICATION PROCESS. IN AN EFFORT TO ENSURE THAT THE COMMUNITY SERVICED BY UMCP IS AWARE OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE UNDER THIS FAP, PHCS DISSEMINATES INFORMATION TO THE COMMUNITY THROUGH ITS COMMUNITY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART VI; QUESTION 4 | IN ITS CHNA, CONDUCTED IN 2015, THE ORGANIZATION REPORTED THE FOLLOWING DEMOGRAPHICS FOR THE COMMUNITY THE ORGANIZATION SERVES: OVERALL POPULATION: IN 2012, THE TOTAL POPULATION OF THE THREE COUNTIES SERVED BY PHCS WAS OVER 1.5 MILLION, ABOUT 17% OF NEW JERSEYS TOTAL POPULATION. THE POPULATION HAS GROWN OVER THE PAST FIFTEEN YEARS, WITH SOMERSET AND MIDDLESEX COUNTIES EXPERIENCING A HIGHER GROWTH RATE THAN MERCER COUNTY OR THE STATE (ABOUT 8%) BETWEEN THE 2000 AND 2010 CENSUSES. THE POPULATION IN ALL THREE COUNTIES IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO GROW, WITH SOMERSET AND MIDDLESEX COUNTIES EXPECTED TO INCREASE AT A RATE HIGHER THAN MERCER COUNTY AND THE STATE. AGE DISTRIBUTION: THE AGE DISTRIBUTION FOR THE REGION IS SIMILAR TO THAT OF NEW JERSEY; HOWEVER, SOMERSET COUNTY HAS A SLIGHTLY HIGHER PROPORTION OF RESIDENTS UNDER THE AGE OF 18 THAN THE OTHER TWO COUNTIES AND THE STATE OVERALL. POPULATION PROJECTIONS INDICATE THAT THE PROPORTION OF RESIDENTS OVERALL AGE 65 IN THE REGION IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE SUBSTANTIALLY OVER THE NEXT DECADE, WITH SOMERSET COUNTY EXPECTED TO EXPERIENCE THE GREATEST INCREASE. THE PROPORTION OF RESIDENTS UNDER THE AGE OF 19 IS EXPECTED TO DECLINE SLIGHTLY IN ALL THREE COUNTIES OVER THE COMING 20 YEARS. RACIAL AND ETHNIC DIVERSITY: FOCUS GROUP AND INTERVIEW PARTICIPANTS REPORTED THAT THE REGION IS RACIALLY AND ETHNICALLY DIVERSE AND SEE THIS AS AN IMPORTANT ASSET. MIDDLESEX COUNTY IS THE MOST DIVERSE OF THE THREE COUNTIES WITH THE LARGEST PROPORTION OF ASIAN (22.2%) AND HISPANIC (18.8%) RESIDENTS. MERCER COUNTY HAS THE HIGHEST PROPORTION OF BLACK RESIDENTS (19.5%) WHILE SOMERSET HAS THE HIGHEST PROPORTION OF WHITE RESIDENTS (61.3%). THE PROPORTION OF RESIDENTS FROM DIVERSE RACIAL AND ETHNIC BACKGROUNDS IS PROJECTED TO CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN THE COMING TWO DECADES. INCOME, POVERTY AND EMPLOYMENT: THE PHCS SERVICE REGION IS LARGELY AFFLUENT, WITH HOUSEHOLD INCOMES IN EACH OF THE THREE COUNTIES EXCEEDING THE STATE MEDIAN. HOWEVER, THE COST OF LIVING IS VERY HIGH, PRICING SOME PEOPLE OUT OF THE COMMUNITY. RESIDENTS ALSO REPORT THAT THERE ARE POCKETS OF POVERTY. THE POVERTY RATE IN MERCER COUNTY (11.2%) IS THE HIGHEST OF THE THREE COUNTIES AND ALSO HIGHER THAN THE STATE OVERALL. FOCUS GROUP MEMBERS AND INTERVIEWEES EXPRESSED CONCERN ABOUT INCOME DISPARITY IN THIS AFFLUENT REGION, WHICH THEY SAW AS GROWING. EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT: THE QUALITY OF THE SCHOOLS WAS CITED BY MANY AS A SIGNIFICANT ASSET IN THE REGION. ALL THREE COUNTIES HAVE A HIGHER PROPORTION OF ADULT RESIDENTS WITH A COLLEGE DEGREE OR HIGHER THAN THE STATE; OVER HALF OF SOMERSET COUNTY ADULTS HAVE A BACHELORS DEGREE OR HIGHER. HOUSING: AS A GENERALLY AFFLUENT REGION, HOUSING IN THE THREE COUNTIES IS FAIRLY EXPENSIVE. MEDIAN HOUSING COSTS FOR MONTHLY MORTGAGES AND RENT EXCEED THAT OF THE STATE IN SOMERSET COUNTY BUT ARE SIMILAR TO THE STATE IN MERCER AND MIDDLESEX COUNTIES. TRANSPORTATION: TRANSPORTATION WAS DESCRIBED AS A SUBSTANTIAL CONCERN FOR THE REGION. THERE ARE FEW PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS FOR TRANSIT WITHIN THE REGION MAKING ACCESS TO HEALTH AND OTHER SERVICES MORE DIFFICULT FOR SENIORS AND LOWER INCOME RESIDENTS. CRIME AND VIOLENCE: OVERALL, THE REGION IS RELATIVELY SAFE ACCORDING TO FOCUS GROUP MEMBERS AND INTERVIEWEES. THE OVERALL CRIME RATE, AS WELL AS VIOLENT AND NONVIOLENT CRIME, IS HIGHER IN MERCER COUNTY THAN IN THE OTHER TWO COUNTIES OR THE STATE OVERALL. ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY: QUANTITATIVE DATA ABOUT AIR POLLUTION INDICATE THAT THE LEVELS OF AIR POLLUTION ARE SIMILAR ACROSS THE THREE COUNTIES AND NEW JERSEY OVERALL, SLIGHTLY OVER 11 MICROGRAMS PER CUBIC METER. SINCE THE HOSPITAL FACILITY IS LOCATED IN AN AFFLUENT COMMUNITY THE ORGANIZATION AIMS TO DEVELOP PROGRAMS TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE LESS FORTUNATE. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ORGANIZATION PREVIOUSLY INVESTED $3M IN AN OUTPATIENT CENTER (CLINIC) THAT CATERS TO PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE OR MEDICAID. THIS OUTPATIENT CENTER PROVIDES ADULT, PEDIATRICS, OB/GYN AND SPECIALTY CARE. ADDITIONALLY, PHCS PROVIDES AND SUBSIDIZES 24/7 OBSETRICAL COVERAGE TO ENSURE ALL PATIENTS RECEIVE IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO QUALTY CARE. PHCS ALSO DEVELOPED INPATIENT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROGRAMS (E.G., SHORT TERM CARE INVOLUNTARY PROGRAMS) THAT PROVIDE CARE TO A MUCH LARGER CATCHMENT AREA AND SERVICE PRIMARILY AN INDIGENT POPULATION. |

OUR JOURNEY: BECOMING PART OF PENN MEDICINE ------------------------------------------- EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2018, THE TRUSTEES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA (THE UNIVERSITY) AND PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HOLDING, INC. ENTERED INTO AN AFFILIATION AGREEMENT WHEREBY THE TRUSTEES OF THE UNIVERSITY BECAME THE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER OF PHCSH. NO CONSIDERATION WAS EXCHANGED FOR THE NET ASSETS CONTRIBUTED AND ACQUISITION COSTS ARE EXPENSED AS INCURRED. PROCESS ------- THREE YEARS AGO, PHCS BEGAN THE PLANNING PROCESS, WHICH WAS HEADED UP BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, A THIRD OF WHOM ARE PHYSICIANS. THE BOARD STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE CONDUCTED A THOROUGH ANALYSIS OF HOW HEALTHCARE IS LIKELY TO BE DELIVERED IN THE FUTURE AND SHARED ALL ITS FINDINGS WITH THE BOARD. IT BECAME CLEAR THAT BECOMING PART OF ANOTHER STRONG SYSTEM WAS THE BEST WAY TO ENSURE THAT PHCS AND ITS AFFILIATES COULD BUILD ON OUR STRENGTH AND CONTINUE TO FULFILL OUR MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY WE HAVE SERVED SINCE 1919. |
| CORE FORM, PART III; STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | DURING OUR SEARCH FOR A PARTNER, PHCS WAS GUIDED BY THESE PRINCIPLES: - ENSURE THAT THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE ARE MET THROUGH ACCESSIBLE, HIGH QUALITY, COORDINATED CARE AND SERVICE THAT IS REASONABLY PRICED. - BE A PREFERRED HEALTHCARE PROVIDER IN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE, BASED ON OUR CLINICAL OUTCOMES AND PATIENT SATISFACTION, BOTH OF WHICH MAKE PHCS IMPORTANT TO PATIENTS, EMPLOYERS, PHYSICIANS AND PAYERS. - OPERATE A FUTURE-FOCUSED, RESPONSIVE, INNOVATIVE, DATA-DRIVEN AND PATIENT HEALTH-FOCUSED ORGANIZATION. - PARTNER WITH PHYSICIANS IN A MANNER THAT ASSURES ALIGNMENT IN SERVICE TO OUR PATIENTS. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES EVALUATED 17 OUTSTANDING POTENTIAL PARTNERS. ULTIMATELY, PENN MEDICINE WAS CHOSEN AS THE PREFERRED PARTNER DUE TO ITS HISTORY OF CLINICAL EXCELLENCE, INNOVATION, COMMITMENT TO PATIENTS, COMMUNITY, PHYSICIANS AND EMPLOYEES AND ITS FINANCIAL STRENGTH. ONCE PENN MEDICINE WAS IDENTIFIED, BOTH PHCS AND PENN MEDICINE UNDERTOOK A COMPREHENSIVE DUE DILIGENCE PROCESS SO THAT WE COULD BOTH BE CONFIDENT THAT EACH PARTY WAS CAPABLE OF FULFILLING THE COMMITMENTS WE EACH MADE IN THE AFFILIATION AGREEMENT. PRINCETON HOMECARE AND HOSPICE ------------------------------ PRINCETON HOMECARE PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE IN-HOME NURSING AND REHABILITATION, HOSPICE CARE AND SUPPORT SERVICES TO PATIENTS IN MERCER, SOMERSET, MIDDLESEX AND HUNTERDON COUNTIES. OUR HOME HEALTH AIDES ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS, WITH 54 PERCENT OF AIDES WORKING WITH US FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS. IN 2017, PRINCETON HOMECARE OUTPERFORMED ITS PEERS BY MAINTAINING A 30-DAY HOSPITAL READMISSION RATE OF 7.6 PERCENT AS COMPARED TO OUR NATIONAL PEER GROUP OF 12 PERCENT. THIS LOW RATE ILLUSTRATES OUR DEDICATION TO IMPROVING PATIENT HEALTH, ASSURING SAFE CARE AND REDUCING UNPLANNED HOSPITALIZATIONS FOR PATIENTS THROUGHOUT THE CONTINUUM OF CARE. TO KEEP PATIENTS SAFE IN THE HOME SETTING WITHOUT REHOSPITALIZATIONS, CLINICIANS TEACH SELF-MANAGEMENT SKILLS, PROVIDE SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT, ENCOURAGE AND FACILITATE EARLY PRACTITIONER FOLLOW-UP, AND PROVIDE MEDICATION MANAGEMENT AND EDUCATION. THE HOSPICE PROGRAM OF PRINCETON HOMECARE BECAME A REGIONAL PARTNER OF WE HONOR VETERANS IN 2017. THIS PROGRAM IS A PIONNERING CAMPAIGN DEVELOPED BY THE NATIONAL HOSPICE AND PALLIATIVE CARE ORGANIZATION IN COLLABORATION WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS. AS A WE HONOR VETERANS PARTNER, HOSPICE HAS IMPLEMENTED ONGOING VETERAN-CENTERED EDUCATION FOR STAFF TO HELP IMPROVE THE CARE PROVIDED TO VETERANS. PRINCETON HOUSE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH --------------------------------- PRINCETON HOUSE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH (PHBH) IS A LEADING PROVIDER OF HIGHLY SKILLED AND COMPASSIONATE BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE. PHBH OFFERS SPECIALIZED PROGRAMMING FOR ADULTS, ADOLESCENTS, TEEN GIRLS, YOUNG ADULTS, MEN, WOMEN AND SENIORS IN EIGHT INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY. GROWTH IN BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SPACE AND SERVICES: PRINCETON HOUSE IS EXPANDING THREE OUTPATIENT SITES. IN MOORESTOWN, CONSTRUCTION OF AN ADDITIONAL 5,000 SQUARE FEET OF TREATMENT SPACE HAS BEEN APPROVED TO EXPAND CAPACITY FOR CHILD, ADOLESCENT AND WOMEN'S SERVICES. IN EATONTOWN, PLANS HAVE BEEN FINALIZED TO DOUBLE THE PHYSICAL SPACE, EXPANDING TO AN ADJACENT FLOOR TO ACCOMMODATE GROWTH IN DEMAND FOR SERVICES IN MONMOUTH COUNTY. PLANS ARE ALSO UNDER WAY TO EXPAND THE NORTH BRUNSWICK OUTPATIENT SITE, AS PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN OPERATING AT CAPACITY THERE, OFTEN WITH WAITING LISTS FOR ADMISSION. ON THE INPATIENT SIDE OF SERVICES, PRINCETON HOUSE HAS EXPERIENCED INCREASING DEMAND TO CARE FOR PATIENTS WITH PSYCHIATRIC, SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MEDICAL CO-MORBID CONDITIONS, SOMETHING PRINCETON HOUSE IS UNIQUELY QUALIFIED TO DO. IN 2017, PHBH SUCCESSFULLY PETITIONED THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH TO RELICENSE 44 EXISTING BEDS TO TREAT PATIENTS WITH CO-OCCURRING DISORDERS. AFTER MINOR RENOVATIONS, IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT THE NEW ADMISSIONS CRITERIA WILL BE IMPLEMENTED IN THE SRING OF 2018. THIS WILL ENABLE PRINCETON HOUSE TO TREAT ADDITIONAL PATIENTS. CLINICAL TRAINING PROGRAMS EXPAND: PRINCETON HOUSE IS COMMITTED TO TRAINING THE CLINICAL PROFESSIONALS OF THE FUTURE AND IS A HIGHLY SOUGHT-AFTER PLACEMENT FOR PSYCHOLOGISTS, SOCIAL WORKERS AND COUNSELORS IN TRAINING. IN 2017, A NEW TWO-YEAR, POST-DOCTORAL TRAINING PROGRAM BEGAN, OFFERING INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT EXPERIENCES FOR PSYCHOLGISTS. IN ADDITION, THE FOLLOWING INTERNSHIPS WERE GRANTED: - DOCTORAL CANDIDATES: FOUR PSYCHOLOGY INTERNS WERE CHOSEN FROM 98 APPLICANTS FROM 22 STATES, THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA. - MASTER'S-LEVEL CLINICIANS: MORE THAN 25 INTERNED THROUGHOUT PRINCETON HOUSE INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT SETTINGS IN 2017. PRINCETON HOUSE ALSO TAKES A LEADERSHIP ROLE IN EDUCATING PROVIDERS ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH PUBLIC GRAND ROUNDS, WHICH ARE INCREASINGLY IMPORTANT IN THE MIDST OF THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC. AFTER EDUCATING NURSES THROUGHOUT THE MEDICAL CENTER VIA ONLINE AND ON-UNIT TRAINING, UMCP WAS ABLE TO DOCUMENT A REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS WITH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES REQUIRING ONE-ON-ONE SUPERVISION. THERE WAS AN INCREASE IN CONFIDENCE IN CARING FOR THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH POPULATION AND AN INCREASE IN STAFF SATISFACTION. PHCS NURSES PRESENTED THIS PROJECT AS A POSTER SESSION AT THE ANCC NATIONAL MAGNET CONFERENCE, WHERE IT WAS RECOGNIZED AS A MAGNET EXEMPLAR PROJECT. CENTER FOR EATING DISORDERS CARE: IN 2017, THE CENTER FOR EATING DISORDERS CARE CARED FOR 289 PATIENTS FROM 37 STATES. THE PROGRAM, ONE OF THE ONLY INPATIENT EATING DISORDERS PROGRAMS IN THE UNITED STATES TO TREAT CHILDREN AS YOUNG AS 8, ALSO CREATED FULLY SEPARATE AND DISTINCT TREAMTMENT PROGRAMMING AND A SEPARATE PHYSICAL SPACE FOR PATIENTS YOUNGER THAN 18 YEARS OLD. FIRST RESPONDER TREATMENT SERVICES: SUICIDE RATES FOR ACTIVE DUTY AND RETIRED LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS, FIREFIGHTERS, EMTS AND MILITARY PERSONNEL IN NEW JERSEY ARE ALARMING. IN 2017, PRINCETON HOUSE FIRST RESPONDER TREATMENT SERVICES LAUNCHED AN AWARENESS AND INTERVENTION TRAINING PROGRAM FOR NEWLY HIRED FIRST RESPONDERS - THE FIRST OF ITS KIND IN NEW JERSEY. MORE THAN 350 CORRECTION OFFICER RECRUITS WERE TRAINED USING A MODEL THAT REINFORCES PEER INTERVENTION AND HELPS TO DESTIGMATIZE ADDICTIONS AND MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. ADMISSIONS FOR ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY PERSONNEL INCREASED SUBSTANTIALLY AT PRINCETON HOUSE IN 2017 AFTER SIGNING A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (MOU) WITH THE 87TH MEDICAL GROUP OF THE JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST AND STARTING A RECIPROCAL EDUCATIONAL EXCHANGE BETWEEN THE TWO CLINICAL STAFFS. SERVICE MEMBERS REFERRED TO PRINCETON HOUSE INPATIENT TREATMENT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF FIRST RESPONDER TREATMENT SERVICES, WHILE THOSE REFERRED TO OUTPATIENT TREATMENT PARTICIPATE IN MENS TRAUMA OR WOMENS PROGRAM TRAUMA AND ADDICTION TRACKS. IN 2017, PHBH HAD 211 LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS, FIREFIGHTERS, EMTS, MILITARY PERSONNEL AND VETERANS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE FIRST RESPONDER TREATMENT SERVICES. TWO YEARS AGO, PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM COMPLETED A COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT, WHICH SHOWED THAT MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE ARE AMONG THE TOP CONCERNS OF OUR COMMUNITY. IN 2017, THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY ALSO ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PUBLIC CONCERN AND SOLICITED LICENSES FOR UP TO 854 INPATIENT BEDS FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS, INCREASING THE CAPACITY TO CARE FOR 40 PERCENT MORE INPATIENTS STATEWIDE. PRINCETON HOUSE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH APPLIED FOR AND WAS APPROVED TO ADD 29 NEW BEDS AT OUR 905 HERRONTOWN ROAD, PRINCETON, LOCATION. WE ARE MAKING CHANGES TO ACCOMMODATE THE NEEDS OF INDIVIDUALS IMPACTED BY THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC. WE ARE ALSO CURRENTLY EVALUATING THE MERITS OF EXPANDING OUR INPATIENT SERVICES. OUR OUTPATIENT PROGRAMS ARE OPERATING AT A CLOSE-TO-FULL CAPACITY, SO WE KNOW THAT THE EXPANSION OF OUR OUTPATIENT CENTERS WILL BE WELCOMMED BY OUR PATIENTS AND BY REFERRING PROVIDERS IN THE COMMUNITY. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT: SINCE THE OPENING OF UMCP'S NEW FACILITY IN 2012, THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE (BHED), A DISCRETE SIX-BED SECURE UNIT ATTACHED TO THE MAIN CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE, HAS TREATED INCREASING NUMBERS OF PATIENTS EACH YEAR. IN 2017, 2,922 PATIENTS WERE SEEN AS THE BHED, WITH ABOUT 33 PERCENT OF THOSE REFERRED TO PRINCETON HOUSE'S INPATIENT SERVICE. THE UMCP MODEL IS AMONG A RELATIVELY FEW BHEDS STATEWIDE, AND DEMAND IS HIGH. |
| CORE FORM, PART III; STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAMS ================================= THE PHCS COMMUNITY EDUCATION & OUTREACH PROGRAM IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF HOW PHCS IS REDEFINING CARE BY OFFERING A DYNAMIC CURRICULUM OF INNOVATIVE HEALTH AND LIFESTYLE-RELATED PROGRAMMING, SCREENINGS AND SUPPORT AT LITTLE OR NO COST TO THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. PHCS IS DEDICATED TO PROMOTING HEALTHY LIVING AT EVERY STAGE OF LIFE AND TO ENHANCING QUALITY OF LIFE BY ADDRESSING THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF WOMEN, MEN, SENIORS, CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS AND DIVERSE POPULATIONS. PROGRAMS ARE DEVELOPED AND FACILITATED BY THE OUTSTANDING PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND HEALTH PROFESSIONALS OF PHCS. WE ALSO WORK CLOSELY WITH LEADING HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS. 2015 COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT ------------------------------- PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM AFFIRMS ITS COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY BY WAY OF A DYNAMIC CURRICULUM AND INNOVATIVE HEALTH AND LIFESTYLE-RELATED SERVICES OFFERED THROUGH ITS COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAM. TO ENSURE THAT THESE ACTIVITIES ARE MEETING THE HEALTH NEEDS IN THE COMMUNITY, PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM CONDUCTED A COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THE REPORTS PROVIDE AN OVERVIEW OF THE KEY FINDINGS OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT, WHICH EXPLORES A RANGE OF HEALTH BEHAVIORS AND OUTCOMES, SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC ISSUES, HEALTH CARE ACCESS, AND GAPS AND STRENGTHS OF EXISTING RESOURCES AND SERVICES WITH A PRIMARY FOCUS ON PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM AS A WHOLE. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT UTILIZED A PARTICULARLY, COLLABORATIVE APPROACH TO LOOK AT HEALTH IN ITS BROADEST CONTEXT. THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS INCLUDED SYNTHESIZING EXISTING DATA ON SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND HEALTH INDICATORS IN THE REGION AS WELL AS INFORMATION FROM FOCUS GROUPS CONDUCTED WITH COMMUNITY RESIDENTS, INTERVIEWS WITH COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS, AND AN ONLINE SURVEY EXAMINING LARGER EXTERNAL FACTORS THAT AFFECT HEALTH. PROVIDER TAXES -------------- ALL NEW JERSEY ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS ARE REQUIRED TO PAY A PERCENTAGE OF THEIR TOTAL OPERATING REVENUE TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH FOR DEPOSIT INTO THE HEALTH CARE SUBSIDY FUND. WE ALSO PAY THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY AN ADJUSTED ADMISSION FEE. IN 2017 PHCS PAID A TOTAL OF $2,541,086 TO THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY FOR THESE ASSESSMENTS. ASSISTANCE PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE ------------------------------------------------- PHCS PROVIDES EMERGENT CARE IRRESPECTIVE OF A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY. OFTEN PATIENTS REQUIRE FOLLOW-UP CARE AFTER HOSPITALIZATION AND ENCOUNTER DISPOSITION/ACCESS PROBLEMS BECAUSE OF NO INSURANCE COVERAGE. PHCS OFTEN PAYS FOR THESE NEEDED SERVICES. IN 2017 PHCS PAID OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS $23,000 FOR SUCH SERVICES UNTIL ALTERNATIVE COVERAGE COULD BE OBTAINED OR CARE WAS NO LONGER INDICATED. MEDICAL EDUCATION ----------------- PHCS HAS A LONGSTANDING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE RUTGERS ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON MEDICAL SCHOOL TO PROVIDE TRAINING FOR MEDICAL RESIDENTS AND STUDENTS. PHCS TRAINED THE EQUIVALENT OF 38 FULL-TIME MEDICAL AND SURGICAL RESIDENTS. THE DIRECT COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THESE PROGRAMS IN 2017 APPROXIMATED $11 MILLION DOLLARS, WHICH WAS PARTIALLY OFFSET BY MEDICARE AND MEDICAID FUNDS OF $2 MILLION DOLLARS, RESULTING IN A SHORTFALL OF $9 MILLION DOLLARS. ALSO, PHCS IS ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN THE TRAINING OF APPROXIMATELY 50 MEDICAL STUDENTS A YEAR FOR WHICH IT RECEIVES NO REIMBURSEMENT. PHCS IS ALSO COMMITTED TO SUPPORT THE EDUCATION AND TRAINING OF NURSING STUDENTS. PHCS HAS LONGSTANDING AFFILIATION AGREEMENTS WITH THE COLLEGE OF NEW JERSEY, RUTGERS UNIVERSITY, MERCER COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE, DREXEL UNIVERSITY AND ST. FRANCIS SCHOOL OF NURSING TO PROVIDE TRAINING EXPERIENCES FOR THEIR NURSING STUDENTS. CHARITY CARE ------------ PHCS PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA DEFINED BY THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH ("DOH") WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. BECAUSE PHCS DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, THEY ARE NOT REPORTED AS REVENUE. THE FULL COSTS (LESS SOME MINOR PAYMENTS) ASSOCIATED TO PROVIDE CHARITY CARE APPROXIMATED $8.4 MILLION. DOH CHARITY CARE GUIDELINES REQUIRE PARTICIPATION AND SPECIFIC DOCUMENTATION OF THE PATIENT IN ORDER TO BE IDENTIFIED AS A CHARITY CARE ACCOUNT. MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT THE PRESENT CHARITY CARE GUIDELINES UNDERSTATE PHCS' CHARITY CARE AMOUNTS AND OVERSTATE THE LEVEL OF BAD DEBTS REPORTED, BECAUSE OF THE DIFFICULTIES INVOLVED WITH OBTAINING PATIENT PARTICIPATION AND SPECIFIC DOCUMENTATION. THE NEW JERSEY HEALTH CARE SUBSIDY FUND ("HCSF") WAS ESTABLISHED FOR VARIOUS PURPOSES INCLUDING THE DISTRIBUTION OF CHARITY CARE PAYMENTS TO HOSPITALS STATEWIDE. IN 2017, PHCS RECEIVED SUBSIDY AMOUNTS OF $384,000 WHICH ARE INCLUDED IN NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. ADDITIONALLY, THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY HAS ESTABLISHED A MENTAL HEALTH SUBSIDY FUND TO PAY FOR SPECIFIC BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. SINCE INCEPTION, PHCS RECEIVED $1.26 MILLION FOR THIS PROGRAM. THE STATE CREATED THE FUND IN RECOGNITION OF THE NEED TO SUPPORT SHORT TERM CARE FACILITY ("STCF") AND CHILD COMMUNITY INPATIENT SERVICES ("CCIS") BEDS. THIS FUND IS NOT SPECIFICALLY TARGETED TO UNDERFUNDING RELATED TO CHARITY CARE AND MEDICAID PATIENTS BUT FOR ALL PATIENTS IN NEED OF THESE SERVICES. APPROXIMATELY 57 PERCENT OF PRINCETON HOUSE'S STCF DAYS ARE CHARITY CARE OR MEDICAID. GOVERNMENTAL SHORTFALLS ----------------------- PHCS PARTICIPATES WITH MOST GOVERNMENTAL PROGRAMS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, MEDICARE AND MEDICAID. IN 2017 PHCS RECEIVED APPROXIMATELY $104.3 MILLION FROM THE MEDICARE PROGRAM. THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THESE REVENUES IN ACCORDANCE WITH MEDICARE RULES AND REPORTED ON THE MEDICARE COST REPORT WAS $132.3 MILLION, RESULTING IN A SHORTFALL OF $28 MILLION. IN 2017, PHCS RECEIVED APPROXIMATELY $36.1 MILLION FROM THE MEDICAID AND MEDICAID MANAGED CARE PROGRAMS. THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THESE REVENUES IN ACCORDANCE WITH MEDICARE RULES WERE $50.7 MILLION, RESULTING IN A SHORTFALL OF $14.6 MILLION. COMMUNITY HEALTH & VOLUNTEERISM ------------------------------- IN 2017, PHCS COMMUNITY EDUCATION & OUTREACH HOSTED OR PARTICIPATED IN 2,000 COMMUNITY PROGRAMS, INCLUDING SCREENINGS, CLASSES AND HEALTH FAIRS THAT REACHED MORE THAN 41,000 AREA RESIDENTS, A 3% INCREASE OVER 2016. AMONG THE PROGRAMS WERE 82 FREE HEALTH FAIRS AND SCREENINGS THAT OFFERED COMMUNITY MEMBERS BLOOD PRESSURE, GLUCOSE, CHOLESTEROL AND OTHER TESTING, AS WELL AS THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WITH PHCS PHYSICIANS AND HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. PHCS INSTRUCTORS PROVIDED 693 CPR AND FIRST AID CLASSES. PHCS ALSO HELD 73 EVENTS AT AREA SENIOR CENTERS AND ACTIVE ADULT COMMUNITIES, SERVING 2,366 SENIORS. PHCS CONTINUED ITS PROGRAMS FOR EMTS IN 2017. A TOTAL OF 232 ASPIRING EMTS COMPLETED THEIR OBSERVATION HOURS IN THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE AT UMCP. IN ADDITION, 133 EMTS ATTENDED CONTINUING EDUCATION CLASSES ON TOPICS SUCH AS BURN INJURIES, ELDER ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID TRAINING. IN 2017, A TOTAL OF 749 VOLUNTEERS SERVED PHCS, DONATING A COMBINED 70,000 HOURS. THE ANIMAL ASSISTED ACTIVITIES PROGRAM - SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS PET THERAPY - CONTINUED ITS GREAT WORK THROUGHOUT THE HEALTH SYSTEM. PETTING A DOG RELEASES GOOD DE-STRESSING BRAIN CHEMICALS AND BRINGS SMILES TO MANY PEOPLE. THE TEAMS TRAVELED TO THE CANCER INFUSION CENTER, THE CLINIC, THE CENTER FOR EATING DISORDERS CARE AND VARIOUS NURSING FLOORS. OTHER TEAMS WORKED CLOSELY WITH THERAPISTS AT PRINCETON HOUSE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH IN A PROGRAM CALLED ANIMAL-ASSISTED INTERVENTION (AAI). THE INITIATIVE INTRODUCES DOGS TO CERTAIN THERAPY PROGRAMS TO HELP INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE DIFFICULTY EXPRESSING THEIR FEELINGS. THIS YEAR THE PROGRAM ADDED FIVE NEW DOGS AND FIVE NEW DOGHANDLERS, BRINGING THE PROGRAM'S TOTAL TO 19 DOG TEAMS - SERVING APPROXIMATELY 1,000 HOURS. IN 2017, 12 COLLEGE-AGED VOLUNTEERS PARTICIPATED IN PHCS' PRE-HEALTH PROFESSIONALS PROGRAM, A 10-WEEK SUMMER PROGRAM FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN HEALTHCARE CAREERS. STUDENTS VOLUNTEERED IN VARIOUS CLINICAL UNITS AND IN THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE. THE GUEST RELATIONS PROGRAM EXPANDED IN 2017, ADDING 10 NEW VOLUNTEERS TO GREET GUESTS AND ASSIST WITH PATIENT WAYFINDING AT UMCP. BY YEAR'S END, A TOTAL OF 63 VOLUNTEERS WERE PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM. |
| CORE FORM, PART III; STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | PHCS' AWARD-WINNING SERIES OF ONLINE CHATS, CALLED PRINCETON HEALTH ON DEMAND (ON THE VIDEO STREAMING NETWORK USTREAM), CONTINUED IN 2017 WITH 13 BROADCASTS ON TOPICS INCLUDING DIABETES, WOMEN AND DRINKING, TREATMENTS FOR LIVER CANCER, COMMON FOOT AND ANKLE PROBLEMS AND FALL PREVENTION. THE ONLINE FORMAT PROVIDES PARTICIPANTS WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO VIEW A HEALTH LECTURE FROM THE COMFORT AND PRIVACY OF THEIR OWN HOME. PRINCETON HEALTH'S ONDEMAND CHANNEL DREW 2,306 VIEWERS IN 2017. PRINCETON HEALTH CAMPUS UPDATE ------------------------------ THIS YEAR, PHCS CLOSED ON THE SALE OF A 38-ACRE PARCEL OF LAND ON THE HOSPITAL CAMPUS. THE COMPANY THAT BOUGHT IT WILL DEVELOP AN INDEPENDENT LIVING COMMUNITY DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE 55 YEARS AND OLDER. A TOTAL OF 45 TOWNHOMES AND 260 RENTAL APARTMENTS WILL BE BUILT, RANGING FROM STUDIOS TO THREE-BEDROOM UNITS. THE DEVELOPMENT INCLUDES MULTIPLE DINING VENUES, A SPA AND OUTDOOR RECREATION AREAS. THE DEVELOPERS BROKE GROUND IN THE FALL AND ANTICIPATE COMPLETING THE PROJECT IN APPROXIMATELY TWO YEARS. DEVELOPERS OF THE ASSISTED LIVING, ADULT DAY CARE AND CHILD CARE FACILITIES COMPLETED THE CONSTRUCTION OF A SHARED STORM-WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND THE EXTENSION OF A SHARED UTILITY NETWORK. IN ADDITION, PHCS PLANS TO BUILD A HELIPAD ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE PATIENT TOWER, PROVIDING EASY ACCESS TO THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE FOR EMERGENCY PATIENT TRANSFERS TO AND FROM THE HOSPITAL CAMPUS. THE HELIPAD TRANSPORT WILL BE OPERATED AND MANAGED BY PENNSTAR, A PROGRAM OFFERED BY PENN MEDICINE. DESIGN IS UNDER WAY, WITH CONSTRUCTION EXPECTED TO START BY SUMMER OF 2018 AND COMPLETED BY FALL OF 2018. NEW CENTER FOR DIGESTIVE HEALTH ------------------------------- UMCP HAS OPENED THE CENTER FOR DIGESTIVE HEALTH, GIVING PATIENTS STREMLINED ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY, COORDINATED DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF DISEASES INVOLVING THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM - INCLUDING THE STOMACH, ESOPHAGUS, LARGE INTESTINE, COLON, LIVER, GALLBLADDER AND PANCREAS. THE NEW CENTER IS LED BY TWO BOARD CERTIFIED GASTROENTEROLOGISTS AND PROVIDES A NURSE NAVIGATOR, WHO WORKS WITH EACH PATIENT AND COORDINATES CARE WITH OTHER DEPARTMENTS THROUGHOUT UMCP AND PHCS. ORTHOPAEDICS PROGRAM ADDS ROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY -------------------------------------------- THIS YEAR, OUR ORTHOPAEDICS PROGRAM PURCHASED A STRYKER MAKO ROBOTIC SYSTEM. THIS INNOVATIVE ROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY IS DESIGNED TO INCREASE ACCURACY IN ALIGNING AND PLACING IMPLANTS. THE SYSTEM ASSISTS SURGEONS BY CREATING A 3-D MODEL OF THE PATIENT'S ANATOMY, ENABLING SURGEONS TO DEVELOP A PRE-SURGICAL PLAN THAT CUSTOMIZES IMPLANT SIZE, POSITIONING AND ALIGNMENT SPECIFICALLY FOR EACH PATIENT. IT ALSO PROVIDES ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY TO HELP THE SURGEON ENSURE ACCURACY AS HE OR SHE COMPLETES THE SURGICAL PROCEDURE. THE ROBOT IS ONE COMPONENT OF OUR COMPREHENSIVE TOTAL JOINT REPLACEMENT PROGRAM. PELVIC WELLNESS --------------- THE CENTER FOR PELVIC WELLNESS CONTINUES TO GROW AND EXPAND ITS SERVICES. THE CENTER TREATS BLADDER, PELVIC SUPPORT AND BOWEL DISORDERS, AS WELL AS POSTPARTUM COMPLICATIONS AND ISSUES WITH SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION. SINCE ITS OPENING IN DECEMBER 2016, THE CENTER HAS ADDED THREE PELVIC FLOOR PHYSICAL THERAPISTS, TWO NURSE NAVIGATORS AND A DIETITIAN. OVERALL, PATIENT SATISFACTION SCORES CONSISTENTLY RANK IN THE 99TH PERCENTILE, PER PRESS GANEY. TELENEUROLOGY PARTNERSHIP HELPS STROKE PATIENTS ----------------------------------------------- SINCE THE SPRING, STAFF MEMBERS IN UMCP'S CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TELECONFERENCE WITH A PENN MEDICINE NEUROLOGIST. CALLED "TELENEUROLOGY," THIS INNOVATIVE VIDEO CONFERENCING HAS ALLOWED FOR FASTER DIAGNOSES FOR STROKE PATIENTS, ACCELERATING THE DECISION-MAKING AT A TIME WHEN EVERY SECOND COUNTS. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT WHEN CLOT-BUSTING MEDICATIONS SUCH AS TISSUE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR (TPA) ARE NEED QUICKLY. TELENEUROLOGY IS AVAILABLE ON EVENINGS AND WEEKENDS. IN-HOUSE NEUROLOGISTS PROVIDE THESE SERVICES AT OTHER TIMES. VIDEO MONITORING PROMOTES PATIENT SAFETY ---------------------------------------- AT UMCP, PATIENT SAFETY AND PRIVACY ARE AMONG OUR HIGHEST PRIORITIES. UMCP HAS PURCHASED 10 PATIENT VIDEO MONITORS (PVMS) TO HELP ENSURE PATIENTS WHO ARE AT GREATER RISK FOR FALLS ARE SAFE WHEN THEY ARE ALONE IN THEIR ROOM. EACH MOBILE MONITOR HAS A VIDEO CAMERA AND TWO-WAY AUDIO DEVICE, WHICH ALLOWS A TRAINED STAFF MEMBER TO SEE AND SPEAK TO THE PATIENT FROM A CENTRAL LOCATION IN THE HOSPITAL 24/7. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE PATIENT IS TRYING TO GET UP OUT OF BED, THE STAFF MEMBER WILL ASK THE PATIENT TO STAY IN BED UNTIL HELP CAN ARRIVE. A "PRIVACY MODE" CAN BE ENABLED UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, SUCH AS BATHING. NOTHING IS RECORDED, AND THE ONLY TIME THE MONITOR TECH CAN HEAR A CONVERSATION IS WHEN THEY TALK TO THE PATIENT OVER THE SPEAKER. THE PATIENT CHOOSES WHETHER TO USE THE PVM. MEDS-TO-BEDS PROVIDES MEDICATION CLARITY ---------------------------------------- THE OUTPATIENT PHARMACY INTRODUCED THE MEDS-TO-BEDS PROGRAM, AN INITIATIVE DESIGNED TO ENSURE GREATER MEDICATION SAFETY FOR PATIENTS BEING DISCHARGED FROM THE HOSPITAL. UMCP CAN NOW FILL PATIENTS DISCHARGE PRESCRIPTIONS BEFORE THEY LEAVE THE HOSPITAL AND DELIVER THEM STRAIGHT TO THEIR BEDSIDE. THIS NEW SERVICE ENSURES PATIENTS ARE GIVEN THE PROPER MEDICATIONS AND RECEIVE DOSING INSTRUCTIONS FROM THEIR NURSE OR CARE TEAM MEMBER. THIS IS ESPECIALLY CONVENIENT FOR THOSE WHO MIGHT HAVE TROUBLE ACCESSING A PHARMACY TO FILL THEIR PRESCRIPTIONS WHEN RETURNING HOME. GOLF THERAPY ------------ AFTER AN INJURY, ILLNESS OR SURGERY, MANY GOLFERS REQUIRE SPECIALIZED PHYSICAL REHABILITATION TO HELP THEM REDUCE PAIN AND PREVENT FURTHER INJURY. THIS YEAR UMCP INTRODUCED AN INNOVATIVE GOLF REHABILITATION PROGRAM, LED BY A PHYSICAL THERAPIST WHO HOLDS A MEDICAL LEVEL 3 TITLEIST PERFORMANCE INSTITUTE CERTIFICATION. EACH GOLFER UNDERGOES A COMPREHENSIVE PHYSICAL THERAPY EXAMINATION AND IS THEN FITTED WITH WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY - CALLED A K-VEST - WHICH PRECISELY MEASURES THEIR BODY MOTION TO HELP CORRECT POOR TECHNIQUE, OPTIMIZE MOTION AND DECREASE STRESSES ON THE BODY DURING THE SWING AND FOLLOW-THROUGH. THE GOLF REHABILITATION PROGRAM IS CONVENIENTLY LOCATED AT THE PRINCETON FITNESS AND WELLNESS CENTER IN PLAINSBORO. ANTIMICROBIAL STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM --------------------------------- UMCPS DEPARTMENT OF PHARMACY SERVICES RECENTLY LAUNCHED AN ANTIMICROBIAL STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM TO HELP PROMOTE THE APPROPRIATE USE OF ANTIMICROBIALS (INCLUDING ANTIBIOTICS) THAT ARE USED TO TREAT INFECTIONS SUCH AS VIRUSES, BACTERIA AND FUNGI. PROGRAMS TO MANAGE ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS HAVE BEEN SHOWN TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF PATIENT CARE AND PATIENT SAFETY BY INCREASING INFECTION CURE RATES AND REDUCING HOSPITAL-ACQUIRED INFECTIONS. THROUGH THE PROGRAM, THE DEPARTMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS THE BROAD-SPECTRUM ANTIBIOTICS THAT ARE BEING PRESCRIBED FOR ADULT PATIENTS AND MAKES RECOMMENDATIONS TO PRESCRIBING PHYSICIANS FOR OPTIMIZING THEIR USE, INCLUDING DOSING, DURATION OF THERAPY AND HOW THEY ARE ADMINISTERED. ADVANCED CANCER CARE -------------------- UMCP IS ONE OF A FEW HOSPITALS IN THE STATE OFFERING AN INNOVATIVE FDA-APPROVED TREATMENT THAT IS HELPING TO SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THE LIVES OF PATIENTS WITH LIVER CANCER, INCLUDING THOSE WITH ADVANCED CANCER AND LIMITED TREATMENT OPTIONS. THE NEW TREATMENT, CALLED RADIOEMBOLIZATION, HELPS PRECISELY TARGET AND KILL CANCEROUS TISSUE BY USING MICROSCOPIC RADIOACTIVE BEADS TO CUT OFF THE BLOOD SUPPLY TO THE TUMOR. THIS APPROACH ALSO HELPS MINIMIZE DAMAGE TO SURROUNDING HEALTHY TISSUE. THE TREATMENT IS USED FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH PRIMARY LIVER CANCER AND CANCERS THAT HAVE SPREAD FROM THE COLON OR BREAST TO THE LIVER. IT IS VERY WELL TOLERATED, WITH MOST PATIENTS RETURNING HOME THE NEXT DAY. INNOVATIVE VIRTUAL DEMENTIA TOUR -------------------------------- IMAGINE YOUR SENSES DULLED, YOUR BALANCE THROWN OFF, YOUR WORLD THROWN INTO A STATE OF CONFUSION. THESE ARE THE CHALLENGES FACED BY PEOPLE WITH DEMENTIA. TO HELP BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW PATIENTS WITH DEMENTIA EXPERIENCE LIFE, UMCP STAFF TOOK PART IN AN INNOVATIVE TRAINING SIMULATION CALLED THE VIRTUAL DEMENTIA TOUR, OR VDT. THE GOAL IS TO PROVIDE STAFF WITH NEW INSIGHTS ON HOW TO BEST COMMUNICATE WITH, AND PROVIDE CARE FOR, THESE PATIENTS. THIS HUMBLING AND ENLIGHTENING EXERCISE ASKS PARTICIPANTS TO COMPLETE A SERIES OF RELATIVELY SIMPLE TASKS WHILE OUTFITTED IN WAYS THAT MAXIMIZE DISTRACTIONS AND UNDERMINE THEIR SENSES: WEARING THICK GLOVES TO INHIBIT DEXTERITY, ROUGH INSOLES TO IRRITATE THEIR FEET, GLASSES THAT RESTRICT THEIR VISION AND HEADPHONES THAT DISTRACT THEM WITH CONSTANT NOISES. TO DATE, OVER 100 STAFF MEMBERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE VDT SIMULATION AND GAINED PERSONAL INSIGHT AND EMPATHY INTO HOW PATIENTS WITH DEMENTIA EXPERIENCE OUR EVERYDAY WORLD. |
| CORE FORM, PART III; STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE REDUCES WAIT TIMES -------------------------------------------- THE STAFF IN THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE HAS IMPLEMENTED AN IMPORTANT INITIATIVE TO DELIVER EFFECTIVE CARE TO PATIENTS EVEN MORE QUICKLY. A NEW TWO-TIER TRIAGE PROCESS ALLOWS ALL PATIENTS TO BE TRIAGED BY A REGISTERED NURSE WITHIN MINUTES OF ARRIVAL. PATIENTS WHO ARE IDENTIFIED AS HAVING A HIGH-RISK COMPLAINT, SUCH AS SUSPECTED HEART ATTACK, ARE EXPEDITED TO AN AVAILABLE ROOM BEFORE COMPLETING THE TRIAGE. MOST PATIENTS WHO DO NOT NEED TO BE ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL ARE DISCHARGED FROM THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE WITHIN THREE HOURS OF ARRIVING THERE. OVER THE PAST YEAR, THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE HAS REDUCED THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF STAY FOR THESE DISCHARGED PATIENTS BY ALMOST 30 MINUTES. FASTER TURNAROUND TIMES FOR LAB AND RADIOLOGY RESULTS HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO GREATER EFFICIENCY IN THE DELIVERY OF EMERGENCY CARE AT UMCP. ENHANCED EMERGENCY SERVICES FOR CHILDREN ---------------------------------------- CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES HAVE ACCESS TO WORD-CLASS PEDIATRIC CARE THROUGH UMCPS LONG-STANDING PARTNERSHIP WITH CHILDRENS HOSPITAL OF PHILADELPHIA (CHOP). THROUGH THIS PARTNERSHIP, PEDIATRICIANS FROM CHOP ARE ON-SITE 24/7 AT UMCP TO PROVIDE INPATIENT PEDIATRIC CARE AND CONSULT ON PEDIATRIC PATIENTS WHO VISIT THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE. IN ADDITION, BOARD CERTIFIED NEONATALOGISTS PROVIDE NEONATAL CARE. TO PROVIDE CHILDREN AND PARENTS EVEN MORE TIMELY AND CONVENIENT ACCESS TO WORLD-CLASS CARE, A PEDIATRICIAN FROM CHOP IS ON-SITE IN THE CENTER FOR EMERGENCY CARE EVERY DAY FROM 2 TO 10 P.M., DURING THE HOURS WHEN CHILDREN MOST FREQUENTLY VISIT. A PEDIATRICIAN FROM CHOP WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN THE HOSPITAL AT ALL OTHER TIMES, EASILY ACCESSIBLE FOR CONSULTATIONS ON PEDIATRIC EMERGENCIES. |
| CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION A; QUESTIONS 6 & 7 | PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HOLDING, INC. ("HOLDING") IS THE SOLE MEMBER OF THIS ORGANIZATION. HOLDING HAS THE RIGHT TO ELECT THE MEMBERS OF THIS ORGANIZATION'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND HAS CERTAIN RESERVED POWERS AS DEFINED IN THIS ORGANIZATION'S BYLAWS. |
| CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B; QUESTION 11B | PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, A NEW JERSEY NONPROFIT CORPORATION ("PHCS") AND ITS AFFILIATES CONSTITUTE A TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM ("SYSTEM"). PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HOLDING, INC. IS THE TAX-EXEMPT PARENT ENTITY OF THE SYSTEM. THIS ORGANIZATION'S FEDERAL FORM 990 WAS PROVIDED TO EACH VOTING MEMBER OF ITS GOVERNING BODY, ITS BOARD OF TRUSTEES, PRIOR TO FILING WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE ("IRS"). PHCS' AUDIT AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE HAS ASSUMED THE RESPONSIBILITY TO OVERSEE AND COORDINATE THE FEDERAL FORM 990 PREPARATION, REVIEW AND FILING PROCESS FOR ALL TAX-EXEMPT AFFILIATES OF THE SYSTEM AND PERFORMED A DETAILED REVIEW OF THIS FORM 990 AT ITS OCTOBER MEEETING.

PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HOLDING, INC. IS THE TAX-EXEMPT PARENT ENTITY OF THE SYSTEM. THE ORGANIZATION AND THE SYSTEM REGULARLY MONITOR AND ENFORCE COMPLIANCE WITH ITS CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY. ANNUALLY ALL MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, OFFICERS AND SENIOR MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL ARE REQUIRED TO REVIEW THE EXISTING CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY AND COMPLETE A QUESTIONNAIRE. THE COMPLETED QUESTIONNAIRES FROM THE ORGANIZATION'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES ARE RETURNED TO THE ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF THE BOARD. THE COMPLETED QUESTIONNAIRES FOR PHCS' OFFICERS AND SENIOR MANAGEMENT ARE RETURNED TO PHCS' VICE PRESIDENT OF CORPORATE COMPLIANCE AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS WHO REVIEWS THE COMPLETED QUESTIONAIRES FOR POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. THEREAFTER, ANY CONFLICTS OF INTEREST FOR BOARD OF TRUSTEE MEMBERS AND MEMBERS OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT ARE REPORTED TO PHCS' GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE AND CORPORATE COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE; RESPECTIVELY, FOR REVIEW, DISCUSSION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY NECESSARY MITIGATING BEHAVIOR. |
| CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B; QUESTION 15 | PRINCETON HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, A NEW JERSEY NONPROFIT CORPORATION'S ("PHCS") BOARD OF TRUSTEES HAS AN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ("COMMITTEE"). THE COMMITTEE HAS ADOPTED A WRITTEN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY WHICH IT FOLLOWS WHEN IT REVIEWS AND APPROVES OF THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF PHCS' SENIOR MANAGEMENT INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT/CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER. THE COMMITTEE REVIEWS THE "TOTAL COMPENSATION" OF THE INDIVIDUALS WHICH IS INTENDED TO INCLUDE BOTH CURRENT AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND ALL EMPLOYEE BENEFITS, BOTH QUALIFIED AND NON-QUALIFIED. THE COMMITTEE'S REVIEW IS DONE ON AT LEAST AN ANNUAL BASIS AND ENSURES THAT THE "TOTAL COMPENSATION" OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT OF THE ORGANIZATION IS REASONABLE. THE ACTIONS TAKEN BY THE COMMITTEE ENABLE PHCS TO RECEIVE THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS FOR PURPOSES OF INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 4958 WITH RESPECT TO THE TOTAL COMPENSATION OF CERTAIN MEMBERS OF THE SENIOR MANAGEMENT TEAM INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT/CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER. THE THREE FACTORS WHICH MUST BE SATISFIED IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS ARE THE FOLLOWING: 1. THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT IS APPROVED IN ADVANCE BY AN "AUTHORIZED BODY" OF THE APPLICABLE TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION WHICH IS COMPOSED ENTIRELY OF INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT HAVE A "CONFLICT OF INTEREST" WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT; 2. THE AUTHORIZED BODY OBTAINED AND RELIED UPON "APPROPRIATE DATA AS TO COMPARABILITY" PRIOR TO MAKING ITS DETERMINATION; AND 3. THE AUTHORIZED BODY "ADEQUATELY DOCUMENTED THE BASIS FOR ITS DETERMINATION" CONCURRENTLY WITH MAKING THAT DETERMINATION. THE COMMITTEE IS COMPRISED OF MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES EACH OF WHOM ARE INDEPENDENT AND ARE FREE FROM ANY CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. THE COMMITTEE RELIED UPON APPROPRIATE COMPARABLE DATA; SPECIFICALLY THE COMMITTEE OBTAINED A WRITTEN COMPENSATION STUDY FROM AN INDEPENDENT FIRM WHICH SPECIALIZES IN REVIEWING OF HOSPITAL AND HEALTHCARE SYSTEM EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. THIS STUDY USED COMPARABLE GEOGRAPHIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC MARKET DATA INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SIMILAR SIZED HOSPITALS, NUMBER OF LICENSED BEDS AND NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THE COMMITTEE ADEQUATELY DOCUMENTED ITS BASIS FOR ITS DETERMINATION THROUGH THE TIMELY PREPARATION OF WRITTEN MINUTES OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE MEETINGS DURING WHICH THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS WAS REVIEWED AND SUBSEQUENTLY APPROVED. THE ACTIONS OUTLINED ABOVE WITH RESPECT TO THE COMMITTEE AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS ONLY APPLIES TO CERTAIN SENIOR MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT/CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER. THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF CERTAIN OTHER INDIVIDUALS CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 990 ARE REVIEWED ANNUALLY BY THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER WITH ASSISTANCE FROM PHCS' HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INDIVIDUAL'S JOB PERFORMANCE DURING THE YEAR AND IS BASED UPON OTHER OBJECTIVE FACTORS DESIGNED TO ENSURE THAT REASONABLE AND FAIR MARKET VALUE COMPENSATION IS PAID BY PHCS.
