        <ExplanationTxt>ADDRESSING SIGNIFICANT NEEDS: INDIVIDUALS WITH EXPERTISE IN THE FOLLOWING DISCIPLINES AND/OR ORGANIZATIONAL AFFILIATIONS: - CLARION AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT - CHILDREN AND YOUTH SERVICES/HUMAN SERVICES, CLARION COUNTY - PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE - SERVICE AND ACCESS MANAGEMENT, CLARION COUNTY - CLARION COUNTY PRISON - OFFICE OF VETERANS AFFAIRS, CLARION COUNTY - CLARION MINISTERIUM IN MARCH 2015, CLARION HOSPITAL CONDUCTED A 2-YEAR EVALUATION OF ITS CHNA IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES FROM THE 2013 ASSESSMENT. CLARION HOSPITAL IS CONDUCTING ITS CHNA A YEAR EARLY, IN ORDER TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH THE OTHER PMCN HOSPITALS AND CONDUCT THEIR ASSESSMENT ON THE SAME SCHEDULE. THE 2013 CLARION CHNA IDENTIFIED 3 GOALS THAT INCLUDED IMPLEMENTING A WORKPLACE WELLNESS PROGRAM, REDUCING CHILDHOOD OBESITY AND IMPACTING THE DIABETES EPIDEMIC. WITHIN THE SHORT TIME FRAME, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE IF THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES IMPACTED ANY OF THE COUNTY-WIDE INDICATORS, AS MOST OF THE OUTCOMES MEASURES FOR THE FIRST TWO YEARS WERE PROCESS MEASURES, ALTHOUGH THE HOSPITAL HAS MADE PROGRESS TOWARD ACCOMPLISHING ITS FIRST TWO GOALS. THE THIRD GOAL, IMPACTING DIABETES, WAS NOT SCHEDULED FOR IMPLEMENTATION UNTIL THIS UPCOMING YEAR AND WILL BE A FOCUS AREA IN THE UPDATED IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. THE CHNA IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY/ACTION PLAN GOT OFF TO A SLOW START AND DID NOT MEET THE INITIAL MILESTONE/DEADLINES OUTLINED IN IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. IN THE ORIGINAL ACTION PLAN, A COORDINATOR WAS DESIGNATED TO BE APPOINTED BY SEPTEMBER 2013. BRIDGET THORNTON WAS APPOINTED AS CHNA COORDINATOR IN JUNE 2014. WHILE THIS DELAYED THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THE MILESTONES IN THE PLAN, BRIDGET MADE GREAT PROGRESS SINCE COMING ON BOARD AND BEGAN IMPLEMENTATION OF THE EMPLOYEE WELLNESS PROGRAM IN JANUARY 2015, ONLY FOUR MONTHS BEHIND THE ORIGINAL SCHEDULE. DURING HER SHORT TENURE, BRIDGET BENCHMARKED BEST PRACTICES IN EMPLOYEE WELLNESS PROGRAMS, IDENTIFIED AND OUTREACHED TO INTERNAL RESOURCES AND PROFESSIONALS WHO SHOULD BE INVOLVED IN THE PROGRAM, CONDUCTED AN EMPLOYEE SURVEY THAT ACHIEVED OVER 200 RESPONSES, CONDUCTED SITE VISITS WITH TWO OTHER EMPLOYEE WELLNESS PROGRAMS TO UNDERSTAND HOW THOSE PROGRAMS WORK, AND DEVELOPED A LOGIC MODEL WITH OUTCOMES AND IMPACT MEASUREMENTS FOR THE EMPLOYEE WELLNESS PROGRAM, AS WELL AS THE OVERALL IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. THE INITIAL IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY/ACTION PLAN INCLUDED ONLY PROCESS MEASURES AND LACKED TRUE OUTCOMES AND IMPACT MEASUREMENTS. THE CHNA IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY WAS REVISED TO INCLUDE ASSISTANCE FROM THE INFORMATION SYSTEMS DEPARTMENT TO DEVELOP METHODS TO TRACK PATIENTS AS WELL AS REPORT THE RESULTS (PRE AND POST WHERE POSSIBLE AND OVER TIME) FOR THOSE WHO PARTICIPATE IN THE EMPLOYEE WELLNESS PROGRAM AS WELL AS IN VARIOUS SCREENING AND INTERVENTION ACTIVITIES. BECAUSE THE HOSPITAL AND PHYSICIAN PRACTICES HAVE EMRS, THIS IS POSSIBLE, BUT WILL TAKE SOME TIME TO DEVELOP THE REPORTING SYSTEMS. REGARDING CLARION'S GOAL OF REDUCING CHILDHOOD OBESITY, THE HOSPITAL HAS MET WITH THE CLARION COUNTY YMCA TO FORM A PARTNERSHIP THAT WOULD EXPAND THEIR CURRENT "FUN N' FIT CLUB" CURRICULUM, ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF TRANSPORTATION TO ENSURE THAT CHILDREN CAN ATTEND THE "FUN 'N FIT CLUB." IN ADDITION, MEETINGS WERE HELD WITH VARIOUS LEADERS IN THE BUSINESS/INDUSTRY SECTOR OF THE COMMUNITY. WORK-SITE WELLNESS PROGRAMS WERE INTRODUCED WITH THE EXPECTATION OF THE HOSPITAL INITIATING THESE IN THE COMMUNITY IN 2017. DURING THE EVALUATION PROCESS, THE TEAM ALSO RECOGNIZED THAT THE HOSPITAL CURRENTLY CONDUCTS A NUMBER OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT EDUCATION AND SCREENING PROGRAMS THAT ARE DESIGNED TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY HEALTH, BUT THAT WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE ORIGINAL IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY WAS REVISED TO INCLUDE THESE ACTIVITIES AS WELL AS THEIR ACCOMPANYING OUTCOMES AND IMPACTS. SHORT TERM OUTCOMES FROM THE INTERVENTION ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED TO DATE INCLUDE: - TEDDY BEAR CLINIC - SENIOR WELLNESS EXPO</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOOTNOTE: THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT CONTAIN A FOOTNOTE THAT DESCRIBES BAD DEBT EXPENSE. THEY DO, HOWEVER, CONTAIN A FOOTNOTE THAT DESCRIBES PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE: ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE REDUCED BY AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE HOSPITAL ANALYZES ITS PAST HISTORY AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYER SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS DATA ABOUT THESE MAJOR PAYER SOURCES OF REVENUE IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, THE HOSPITAL ANALYZES CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS, IF NECESSARY (FOR EXAMPLE, FOR EXPECTED UNCOLLECTIBLE DEDUCTIBLES AND COPAYMENTS ON ACCOUNTS FOR WHICH THE THIRD-PARTY PAYER HAS NOT YET PAID, OR FOR PAYERS 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), THE HOSPITAL RECORDS A PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS 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 NEGOTIATED OR PROVIDED BY POLICY) AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS.</ExplanationTxt>
