      <Desc>The Organization operates a 19-bed critical access hospital, a 78-bed long term care facility and a Provider Based Rural Health Clinic that benefits the people in the surrounding area.Some of the organization's accomplishments during FY2016 include:Implemented the SunRX 340B Pharmacy Discount program facility wide. EMS purchased a Zoll 12-lead monitor to assist in the care of patients during transport. Sheridan Memorial EMS/Trauma received LUCAS 2 device that allows for automated chest compressions for CPR. Sheridan Memorial saw a need for an Immunization Clinic in our community to provide immunizations from infant to age 18. In FY16 the IZ clinic was set up, surveyed and saw its first patient June 15th. Sheridan Memorial Rural Health Clinic began providing Micronutrient testing.Sheridan Memorial Radiology installed a new, 80 slice CT scanner in June. The 80 slice was an upgrade from the 16 slice. Physical Therapy installed a rail to assist with pulleys and Thera band/Thera tubing exercises. 6 people were trained in the Instructor CPR course, allowing for convenience of staff and community training. Sheridan Memorial Nursing Home consolidated their service area from 2 "wings" to 1 wing. Currently all residents are housed in the East Wing of the Nursing with 45 beds. This allowed for cost savings for space, staffing and other expenses. In addition, the residents have enjoyed the remodeled Resident Living Room.</Desc>

        <ExplanationTxt>The Hospital is organized as a Montana nonprofit corporation and has been recognized by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as exempt from Federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). The Hospital is annually required to file a Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax (Form 990) with the IRS. In addition, the Hospital is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to its exempt purpose. The Hospital has determined it is not subject to unrelated business income tax and has not filed an Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return (Form 990-T) with the IRS. The Hospital believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken affecting its annual filing requirements, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the consolidated financial statements. The Hospital would recognize future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits and liabilities in income tax expense, if such interest and penalties are incurred.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The cost to charge ratio is used to determine community benefit. This is done by applying the ratio to the total Medicare revenue. A shortfall or overage in any given year is a result of the timing of payments from Medicare on an interim basis and when final settlement is made. Management uses estimates to calculate such settlements but actual results vary from those estimates. Additionally, shortfalls can result from various expenses that are incurred by the facility which are considered non-reimbursable by Medicare. Since part of the costs are not reimbursed it is only prudent to consider this shortfall to be a benefit to the community. Also Medicare recipients are part of a charitable class and so the provision of medical care furthers this charitable class.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Once a financial assistance application is submitted, collection actions are suspended until it is determined if the patient is eligible for financial assistance. If an individual submits an incomplete FAP application, a patient account representative provides a notice requesting additional information and lets the individual know what additional information is needed. In certain cases, where deemed appropriate, collection actions are reversed if an individual is determined to be eligible for financial assistance.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Sheridan Memorial ensures all patients are notified of the availability of financial assistance at every admission. At admission the patient signs a Condition of Admission which states that assistance is available. In addition, financial assistance packets are handed out by the Admission's Clerk to those you are underinsured/uninsured or express need for assistance. This packet includes all payment options, Medicaid information and Financial Assistance application. In addition the Financial Assistance policy and application are posted on the Sheridan Memorial website www.SheridanMemorial.net and posters are placed around the facility explaining payment options and financial assistance availability. Each statement sent out to the patient states that Financial Assistance is available. In addition, when making collection or payment plan calls, the self-pay collection clerk informs all of assistance availability.</ExplanationTxt>
