The hospital identified key Community Stakeholders, leaders from organizations that have special knowledge and or expertise in public health, agencies with information relative to the health needs of the community and representatives of medically underserved, low-income, minority populations and populations with chronic disease needs in the community.

Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistanceOCH provides care to patients who meet certain criteria under its charity care policy without charge or at amounts less than its established rates. Records of charges foregone for services and supplies furnished under the charity care policy are maintained to identify and monitor the level of charity care provided. Because OCH does not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as charity care, they are not reported as revenue. OCH estimates its costs of care provided under its charity care programs by applying a ratio of direct and indirect costs to charges to the gross foregone charges associated with providing care to charity patients. OCH's gross charity care charges include only services provided to patients who are unable to pay and qualify under OCH's charity care policies. The ratio of cost to charges is calculated based on OCH's total expenses divided by gross patient revenue.
Schedule H, Part II Community Building ActivitiesOchsner endeavors to promote the health of the communities it serves through community building activities. Ochsner Community Hospitals promote economic growth in these areas by partnering and supporting organizations like Greater New Orleans Inc, Jefferson Economic Development Corporation, New Orleans Chamber Foundation, St. Tammany West Chamber of Commerce, United Negro College Fund, and local neighborhood associations and child development programs like the Girl Scouts of America and the Greater New Orleans Immunization Network. It also aims to engage and inspire high school students to pursue further education and careers in science and medicine through its STAR ("Science, Technology, Academics and Research") program, a free, five-week summer program that provides qualified high school students with a unique opportunity to work in a student healthcare laboratory setting and BEST! Science which offers science teachers the opportunity to bring students to Ochsner's iLab where they can perform experiments designed by our PhD scientists.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amountBad debt expense at cost is calculated by applying the ratio of patient care cost to charges to the bad debt expense calculated using the following methodology. OCH recognizes revenue on the basis of its standard rates of services provided (or on the basis of discounted rates, if negotiated or provided by policy). Based on historical experience, a significant portion of OCH's uninsured and underinsured patients will be incapable or reluctant to pay for the services provided. Therefore, OCH records a significant provision for bad debts in the period services are provided related to patient receivables and deductibles, copayments, or other amounts due from individual patients that have been deemed unwilling to pay.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense MethodologyBad debt expense is not considered community benefit.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnoteThe footnote in the organization's financial statement that describes bad debt expense is described in the section entitled "Managed Care", beginning on page 29 of the attached Financial Statements. "OCF recognizes net patient service revenue associated with services provided to patients who have third-party payor coverage on the basis of contractual rates for the services rendered. For uninsured patients who are not eligible for charity care, OCF recognizes revenue on the basis of its standard rates for services provided (or on the basis of discounted rates, if negotiated or provided by policy). Based on historical experience, a significant portion of OCF's uninsured and underinsured patients will be incapable or reluctant to pay for the services provided. Therefore, OCF records a significant provision for bad debts in the period the services are provided related to patient receivables and deductibles, co-payments, or other amounts due from individual patients who have been deemed unwilling to pay."
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costsMedicare shortfall is not considered community benefit. Total revenue from Medicare and Medicare Allowable Costs were aggregated from the fiscal year cost report filed with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. They do not include Medicare Advantage or payments related to Education or Research, in compliance with the instructions. Total revenue from Medicare has been taken from the E Series in the Medicare Cost Reports. For Medicare Allowable Costs, Worksheet D Part V Line 202 Column 5 was used for outpatient costs and Worksheet D-1 Part II Line 49, and Worksheet D-1 Part III Line 86, and Worksheet E Part A Line 55 was used for inpatient costs. The cost report used for this schedule was the cost report for Fiscal Year 2016. The cost report for Ochsner Medical Center - Kenner (Provider No. 19-0274) covers the period 5/1/2015 - 4/30/2016.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistanceUpon granting approval for 100% assistance, all collection efforts for that account will cease, the account will not be turned over to a collection agency, and Ochsner will not impose extraordinary collection efforts such as wage garnishments or liens.

Schedule H, Part VI, Line 2 Needs assessmentOchsner Health System is Louisiana's largest non-profit, academic, healthcare system. Ochsner serves the needs of the various communities throughout Southeast Louisiana through its commitment to exemplary patient care, medical research and education. Ochsner Clinic Foundation is part of Ochsner Health System, which comprises a total of eight hospitals (including three satellite locations) and approximately 68 health centers throughout Southeast Louisiana. In order to identify the needs of the community, Ochsner reviews local and state publicly available data regarding the health status and issues in its region. Ochsner works with community organizations that collect information on their areas of focus to identify trends and areas where Ochsner has expertise that can make an impact. Ochsner collaborates with multiple community stakeholders to identify specific community needs in its regions. Ochsner then reviews these needs and determines where it can best use its resources and expertise to affect those needs. One of Ochsner's main focuses is to develop partnerships to address root causes of issues. Examples of Ochsner's commitment to the community can be found in Part VI, Line 5. Ochsner participated with the Metropolitan Hospital Association to conduct a region-wide Community health needs assessment which included all not for profit hospitals in the region in 2015. The applicable Community health needs assessments for each facility may be found in Part V, Section B as required.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 3 Patient education of eligibility for assistanceAll uninsured patients are screened for Medicaid. This process takes place at the time of service, inpatient admissions, and if the patient is not screened at the time, the patient is contacted at home to determine eligibility. If the patients do not qualify for Medicaid, then they will be evaluated under the financial assistance policy. Internal customer service departments and external partners including collection agencies provide patients with financial assistance applications if patients express concerns about the inability to pay outstanding balances. Ochsner also offers zero interest payment plan options with payment terms ranging from six to 60 months.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 4 Community informationOchsner Community Hospitals operates a 110 bed multi-specialty hospital. Ochsner Medical Center-Kenner is an acute care community hospital located in Kenner, Louisiana approximately 12 miles from New Orleans. Ochsner Medical Center-Kenner encompasses most all of the services that a patient may need, including 24-hour Level II emergency care. They serve the Kenner and River Parishes area with patients that vary in age, gender, and race. The 2016 population of the Kenner and surrounding River Parishes area was approximately 243,000 and about 28.8% of the population receives Medicaid or is uninsured. Approximately 32,000 or 13.2% receive Medicaid and about 39,000 or 15.8% are uninsured.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 5 Promotion of community healthHaving a diverse representation of the community in the governing boards is an important part of making sure all aspects of the community Ochsner serves are being touched by the mission and vision of the organization. The Articles of Incorporation and the by-laws of Ochsner Community Hospitals call for a majority of the board members to be independent community leaders. The Chief Executive Officer serves on the Board by virtue of his or her office; however, a majority of Board members are prominent multi-disciplinary business and community leaders. The remaining board members are senior physician employees of Ochsner Clinic Foundation elected by the member, Ochsner Health System (a related 501(c)(3) and Section 501(a)(3), Type I Supporting organization), in accordance with Ochsner Community Hospitals Articles of Incorporation. In addition to supplying the community's future healthcare providers and providing research to improve medical outcomes, Ochsner is also focused on improving the lifestyle of the patients it serves. Research has proven that many chronic health problems, such as diabetes, obesity and hypertension, are primarily caused by lifestyle choices. In order to reduce chronic disease in the community, Ochsner needs to change the choices and behaviors through exercise, nutrition and promotion of preventative health behaviors. Ochsner's community outreach strategy, led by the commitment of our board of directors and executive team, deploys institutional resources of time, expertise and funding to encourage and support individual and community wellness, focusing on root causes of preventable deaths and chronic disease. Ochsner has been at the forefront of population health management, developing strategies and providing support and education where people live, work, learn and play. Recognizing that good health happens outside our hospitals and clinics, Ochsner has developed partnerships with schools, churches, local sports teams, community centers and restaurants to encourage healthy behaviors. Ochsner has embarked on an ambitious project to transform the health and wellness of its community, using schools as the focal point. Change the Kids, Change the Future(TM) is an overarching philosophy to alleviate the cause instead of the symptom. The goal is to teach children how to make good lifestyle choices to affect meaningful, lasting change for the health and wellness of the community. Ochsner currently provides for two nurse practitioners at local high schools that staff fully functional clinics that see students through scheduled appointments and walk in visits. They also work with the schools to help educate the students about healthy choices. Ochsner also targets childhood obesity through a program at its fitness center, EFC On the Move - Driving to Fight Childhood Obesity, where children ages 9-13 learn about health and fitness in a non-competitive environment via Elmwood Fitness Center's Mobile Fitness Unit. The mobile unit provides fitness classes and weight training equipment. Licensed dietitians provide healthy nutrition information and the staff performs pre- and post- program measurements and exercise performance assessments. In 2013, Ochsner implemented an after school cooking program (CHOP) for middle school students in Jefferson parish public schools. Knowledge and behavioral improvement has been promising and the program will be expanded to other venues. In 2016, 240 middle school students participated in the program. Another 700 students received education on health and nutrition through our Nutrition Roadshow. Ochsner is also an advocate for the health and wellness of adults. Ochsner provided various free health screenings, such as glucose, blood pressure and total cholesterol, and health information to over 2,000 people at public health fairs. Ochsner participated in over 1400 community events attended by over 400,000 people, directly impacting over 135,000 individuals in 2016. Ochsner also educates people about the benefits of smart food and lifestyle choices through health fairs and cooking demonstrations. Ochsner also helps people stop smoking with its Tobacco Control & Prevention Program by attending corporate wellness events and partnering with area schools to provide educational materials and support. Ochsner offers 20 cessation clinic sides that provide free smoking cessation services to patients who are eligible for the Tobacco Trust program. Ochsner's nutritionists developed and implemented Eat Fit NOLA which offers a free service to local restaurants to offer healthy menu items, either by evaluating existing recipes or assisting in the development of new ones. Over 220 restaurants have signed up to participate in the program offering over 1200 healthy menu items in 6 regions. The team developed a smartphone app for Eat Fit NOLA so that you find restaurants nearby that offer these items and see nutrition information. Ochsner works locally to improve the health of communities: Ochsner is an active participant with Healthy BR, Baton Rouge's mayor's initiative to improve the health of Baton Rouge residents. Ochsner is a key participant in the City of New Orleans Fit NOLA program which has developed partnerships aimed at improving the quality of life for all New Orleans residents.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 6 Affiliated health care systemOchsner Health System is the supporting organization to Ochsner Clinic Foundation and Ochsner Community Hospitals. While each of the eight hospitals within the System promote the health within the separate geographical communities that they service, many overall community health initiatives are coordinated by Ochsner Health System, and the expenditures are then reimbursed by the respective entities.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a Process to establish compensation of top management officialAll CEO and officer compensation and benefits arrangements, including salary and bonus incentive plans, are reviewed and approved by the Executive and Senior Physician Compensation Committee of the Ochsner Health System's Board of Directors (Compensation Committee). No substantive change to the compensation or benefits packages is made until Committee approval is granted in accordance with Intermediate Sanctions guidelines. The Compensation Committee is without conflicts of interest and uses an independent external consultant. Appropriate data is applied to determine the comparability of fair market value pay and all actions are appropriately documented. In order to meet the requirements of the IRS Intermediate Sanctions regulations, the Compensation Committee identified the "disqualified individuals" that are in a position to exercise substantial influence over the company's operations. These individuals are the members of the Executive Officers Committee (EOC), Regional Medical Directors, physician board members and Section Heads for key departments. For disqualified individuals, the compensation review also includes the cost of benefits such as the company portion of medical and dental benefits, malpractice insurance, payments for 401K matching and pension.

The Physician Compensation department compiles the compensation data for each physician including base salary, stipends, on-call pay, etc. Each physician's compensation as well as the total work Relative Value Units (RVUs) are compared to the survey data. Compensation for other non-physician key employees is reviewed by senior executives who take market value research into consideration when determining compensation levels.
