Desc	Burnett Medical Center, located in rural northwest Wisconsin is a 17 bed critical access hospital that provides the following services throughout a three county region:Acute Care has 50+ employees who also work in obstetrics, operating room, emergency room, and post-anesthesia recovery. We provide general inpatient medical and surgical care, as well as a large volume of outpatient services which include but are not limited to: OP surgery, chemotherapy, blood transfusion, IV therapy. All of the RN staff is ACLS accredited and the entire staff is certified in CPR. The goal of the nursing staff is to provide excellent patient care, close to home, near family and friends.We also provide a full range of services from a 24/7 emergency room to cardiac rehab, and we provide other therapeutic and diagnostic services via Radiology, Lab, Physical Therapy, and Occupational Therapy.During FY2016 in a total of 1,229 patient days we served 325 patients in our inpatient and swing bed programs and also had 39 births. We performed 530 surgical procedures, saw 4,325 patients for emergency care, and provided services for about 16,000 other outpatient visits. Gross hospital revenue of $11,050 was provided as charity care to 9 different patients for 65 episodes of care.Since June of 2004, Burnett Medical Center has been participating in a program developed by Abbott Northwestern Hospital and the Minneapolis Heart Institute. The Level 1 Heart Attack Program is an innovative approach to treating patients suffering from a heart attack. The key ingredient for success is speed in treatment. The goal is to treat and transport patients within 120 minutes, meaning 120 minutes from the time a patient enters the emergency room at Burnett Medical Center until the first balloon is inflated or stent placed at Abbott Northwestern Hospital (ABNW).Because rural hospitals do not have the capability to do angioplasty, it is important to move a heart attack patient to the nearest hospital that has a heart catheterization lab. The Level 1 Program has a definite protocol to move these patients quickly during that "golden hour" when angioplasty is the most successful.Burnett Medical Center is one of 30 hospitals in Minnesota and Wisconsin participating in the Level 1 Program. Clearly, the Level 1 Program is advantageous to residents of Burnett County, knowing that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for men and women in the US. This team approach gives patients the advantage of time which translates to better outcomes and decreased mortality. Burnett Medical Center's medical and nursing staff have been trained for this program and are prepared and pleased to provide quick access to efficient cardiac care through the Level 1 Heart Attack Program.

Burnett Medical Center, Inc.	Part V, Section B, Line 7d: The CHNA is available on the hospital's website at:http://www.burnettmedicalcenter.com/docs/Community_Health_Needs_Assessment_2016.pdfThe CHNA is also available on the following websites:www.healthyburnett.org
Burnett Medical Center, Inc.	Part V, Section B, Line 11: In response to the new requirements under the Affordable Care Act, Burnett Medical Center, in partnership with the Burnett County Public Health Office, jointly conducted a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) which has been highlighted in our previous 990H submissions. As a result of this partnership, we, along with many public and private healthcare interests, work collaboratively via the formation of Healthy Burnett, an enterprise that seeks and welcomes other community members and organizations to work together in addressing the most compelling needs identified via the CHNA. For the current reporting period, the three most significant health needs identified that Burnett Medical Center and Healthy Burnett are addressing are: 1) Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse (AODA) Burnett Medical Center (BMC) seeks to improve access to counseling by keeping an updated list of AODA counseling services and collaborating with AODA stakeholders to assist the community in early referral and potential treatment. BMC will decrease the incidents of perinatal drug use and its impact on newborns by screening all women of child bearing age for alcohol and other drug use and appropriately counsel on the importance of abstinence. BMC will also provide education and promotion of current resources through events and use of social media.2) Behavioral Health Burnett Medical Center (BMC) will improve access to behavioral health services by offering adult Psychiatric services via telemedicine with the potential of adding Pediatric/Adolescent telepsychiatry services in future. BMC will promote awareness of behavioral health services by having the "Behavioral Health Providers" brochures readily available throughout the facility as well as thru events and use of social media.3) Tobacco Use and Exposure Burnett Medical Center (BMC) will educate patients on the importance of tobacco abstinence/cessation through counseling and promotion of the Wisconsin Tobacco Quit Line. BMC will provide education to community adolescents on the importance of tobacco abstinence at an age appropriate level.In closing, please know that Burnett Medical Center is the sole hospital in Burnett County (880 square miles). We are a 17-bed, rural Critical Access Hospital, combined with an employed provider rural health clinic, 24/7 Emergency Department, and a 50 bed long-term care center. As such, we take our mission seriously, and remain ever-focused on our daily calling of providing quality, compassionate care. Mindful of our mission--we, like federal, state and local government--must balance the many compelling and competing needs, within a severely-constrained resource environment. There is great need among those we serve. We acknowledge the many competing health issues inherent in serving a population that has less financial resources, that is older, and is more geographically-dispersed than that of either the state or the Nation.We are acutely aware and recognize that there are many other compelling healthcare issues. While we can and do identify these needs, we are forced to prioritize the most needed and compelling as determined by our CHNA process, and within the limited resources available in a poor, rural County. Be assured that as resources and grant-funding may become available, Burnett Medical Center, in partnership with our Healthy Burnett consortium, will continue to allocate time, talent, and resources to the significant health needs that have been captured in our consensus-building CHNA process.
Burnett Medical Center, Inc.	Part V, Section B, Line 16i: Registration and clinic personnel often refer uninsured and low-income individuals to a financial counselor to discuss the Medical Center's financial assistance policy.
Burnett Medical Center, Inc.	Part V, Section B, Line 22d: The Medical Center determines the amount charged to FAP-eligible individuals using an income-based sliding fee based on Federal Poverty guidelines. If an indvidual is at 150% or less of the federal porverty guidelines, then they generally receive free care. If the individual earns between 150% and 200% of the federal poverty guidelines, then they receive a discounted price based on a sliding fee scale.

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDesc	ExplanationExplanationTxt
Part I, Line 7:	THE COSTING METHOD USED ON FORM 990 IS BASED ON A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO WHICH IS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE Medical Center'S TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES LESS THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTs DIVIDED BY GROSS PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. THIS COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO IS APPLIED AGAINST VARIOUS REVENUE AND EXPENSE CATEGORIES TO COMPUTE THE ESTIMATED COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE UNDER IRS COSTING METHODS FOR THE FORM 990.
Part I, Line 7g:	The cost of subsidized services is based on cost allocations from the Medicare cost report. Allowable costs are assigned directly to departments throughout the year and then the cost report uses the allocation methodology to assign all other costs to calculate service line costs. Subsidized health services include the operation of the skilled nursing home, the clinic, and the emergency room department. These services are unavailable to members of the community other than through Burnett Medical Center, Inc. It has been the goal of Burnett Medical Center, Inc. to provide these services to the community regardless of a patient's ability to pay.
Part I, Line 7, Column (f):	The Bad Debt expense included on Form 990, Part IX, Line 25, Column (A), but subtracted for purposes of calculating the percentage in this column is $ 784,495.
Part II, Community Building Activities:	We are close to the communities we serve and take an active role in addressing the root factors contributing to our community's health status. We do so through our involvement in community-building partnerships that address economic development and community health improvement issues.The organization's CEO serves as a board member of the Grantsburg Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC) as well as the Burnett County Development Association (BDCA). These organizational enterprises seek to encourage economic growth in Burnett Medical Center's primary service area. GIDC and BDCA have a strong history of bringing new industry into the area which results in increased employment opportunities and strengthens the local economy. Knowing that unemployment leads to an increase in unhealthy behaviors-which in turn can lead to increased risk for disease or mortality-GIDC's and BDCA's mission of encouraging economic growth favorable and directly impacts the health of Burnett Medical Center's service area.Furthermore, the organization continues to collaborate with a local advocacy group, Citizens Against Poverty, which seeks to eliminate barriers contributing to high rates of poverty among service area residents. For example, having identified lack of access to transportation as a root cause of poverty, one area of focus has been to advocate for a means of public transportation in the service area. Due to the rural nature of the communities served by Burnett Medical Center, providing a means of transportation for residents promotes health by increasing access to job opportunities, to grocery stores and food shelves, and to healthcare services. Hunger and lack of access to healthy foods was identified as another root cause of poverty. Citizens Against Poverty has undertaken an effort to establish sustainable sources of food for area residents by providing supplies to them at no cost to create raised bed gardens so they are able to grown their own produce.
Part III, Line 2:	The costing methodology used on form 990 is based on a cost-to-charge ratio which is developed based on the Medical Center's total operating expenses less the provision for bad debts divided by gross patient service revenue. This cost-to-charge ratio is applied against the total charges that are written off during the fiscal year to estimate the cost of the charity care of patients that have accounts that are deemed to be bad debts to the hospital. The medical center also provides discounts to eligible uninsured or underinsured patients under its charity care policy. These amounts are included in the contractual adjustments on the financial statements and are not included in the ratio as described above and approved by the IRS for use on form 990. If considered, these additional write-off amounts to uninsured or underinsured accounts would also increase the estimated bad debt expense associated with these uncollectible accounts to the hospital.
Part III, Line 3:	Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts, primarily uninsured patients and amounts patients are personally responsible for, through a charge to operations and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of historical collection likelihood and the current status of individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after the hospital has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. Many times patients are unable to complete the required charity care application and are transferred to collection services. Even though the hospital provides this information to all patients, a small amount of bad debts could be considered as chartiy care.
Part III, Line 4:	Patient Accounts Receivable and Credit Policy: In evaluating the collectability of accounts receivable, the medical center analyzes past results and identifies trends for each of its major payor sources of revenue to estimate the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts and provision for bad debts. Management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Specifically, for receivables associated with services provided to patients who have third-party coverage, the medical center analyzes contractually due amounts and provides an allowance for doubtful accounts and a provision for bad debts for expected uncollectible deductibles and copayments on accounts for which the third-party payor has not yet paid, or for payors and patients 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 medical center records a significant provision for bad debts in the period of service on the basis of its past experience, which indicates that many patients are unable or unwilling to pay the portion of their bill for which they are financially responsible. The difference between the standard rates (or the discounted rates if negotiated) and the amounts actually collected after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted is charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. The audited financial statements do not include a separate footnote regarding bad debt expense.
Part III, Line 8:	Burnett Medical Center, Inc. is designated a critical access hospital and as such a portion of its revenue is paid under a cost reimbursement system. Based on the instructions, the total medicare revenue shown on this form 990 includes only a portion of the gross medicare revenue that is actualy received by the Medical Center from the medicare program. The amounts listed for Medicare do not include physician and mid-level practitioner services for the coverage of the emergency department at Burnett Medical Center, Inc. Physician coverage is reimbursed primarily on a fee schedule reimbursement methodology at rates that are often below the costs of caring for patients. Emergency services provided to Medicare patients are vital to the well-being of the community and as such these costs and shortfalls should also be considered as an additional benefit that Burnett Medical Center, Inc. provides to the community and surrounding area of Grantsburg, Wisconsin. The costing method used above for IRS 990 compliance reporting is also based on an overall average cost-to-charge ratio and does not consider medicare non-allowable expenses as it is based on total Medical Center patient service revenue (ignoring contractual adjustments on fee schedule reimbursed items and non-allowable medicare expenses as noted above) divided by total operating expenses less the provision for bad debt expense. This ratio is then multiplied by the total medicare services which are reimbursed on a cost methodology excluding the fee schedule items like physician and mid-level practitioner services which the Medical Center would show a large loss on these services. Whether there is a shortfall or surplus on services provided to Medicare beneficiaries, these people, which are typically elderly or disabled members of the community, are an underserved population who experience issues with access to Healthcare services. Without tax-exempt hospitals providing Medicare patient services, the centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) would bear the burden of directly providing services to the elderly and disabled members of the community.
Part III, Line 9b:	Patients receive our Community Care application when they present for services. They are encouraged to review the application and submit the required information to apply for potential coverage. If they have questions or need help with the application they may meet with our Financial Counselor and/or our Business Office Manager.
Part VI, Line 2:	We continue to rely on marketing and demographic data for both our Primary and Secondary Service Areas as supplied by proprietary sources from Thomson Reuters Market Expert, its successor company, Truven Analytics, and the Minnesota Hospital Association. Such market-based analysis provides evidence-based estimates and projections for the medical needs of those that live within our service area. We then assess the availability of existing healthcare providers and services to determine what gaps may exist, and how we can best align our services in order to be engaged in the ability to address unmet need in partnership with both public and private providers of healthcare services. The result of our review and analysis serves as a fundamental basis for the development of goals and objectives in our Strategic Plan.Furthermore, as required by law, we conduct and complete, once every three years, a community health needs assessment (CHNA) as required under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and rely on our findings to determine any needed changes or challenges in our focus. In conducting the CHNA, a comprehensive health needs assessment, using both quantitative and qualitative data, is performed in collaboration with two key community partners: Burnet County Department of Health and Human Services-Public Health and the St. Croix Tribal Health Clinic.Quantitative data sources including the County Health Rankings, the United States Census Bureau, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Wisconsin Interactive Statistics on Health, and the Behavior Risk Factor Surveillance System were relied upon and used to assess the health needs of the service area by comparing county-level data for given indicators of health to state and national benchmarks. We integrated this quantitative data with the qualitative data that was gathered from community members and organizations to develop a better understanding of community perceptions of the service area's health needs. This data is gathered through (1) an internet-based survey and paper survey of approximately 500 individuals, (2) focus groups, and (3) a key informant interview.After data is collected, CHNA partners facilitate a community forum in which representatives of other healthcare providers, community groups, and local non-profit organizations that have an interest and expertise in the health of service area residents are invited to offer additional input on the health needs of the communities served and help prioritize the identified needs.The results of the assessment and community forum are used along with knowledge of existing assets available to meet identified health needs in developing an implementation strategy that delineates how Burnett Medical Center will target existing programs and resources, target and deploy any available additional resources, and collaborate with other community entities to address the identified health needs. Furthermore, Burnett Medical Center has taken a lead role in formulating a community-wide plan to address the top health need identified through the CHNA. The plan is being executed by the community collaborative "Healthy Burnett" that was created as a result of the CHNA to address the identified health needs.
Part VI, Line 3:	Patients are told about our Community Care program by our Financial Counselor, Registration Staff , Patient Account Representatives and Business Office Manager. In addition, we have signs posted by both our Clinic and ER Registration areas informing our patients of the Community Care program available at our facility. If the patient feels they will need assistance with their medical bills, they are encouraged to apply for the Community Care program with all the required information. Finally, patients also have access to the Community Care application information on our website, for easier access for our patients.While we do not have any certified application counselors, we are charter members that joined the federal government's Champions for Coverage campaign to help educate people about and to promote the Health Insurance Marketplace. As a Champion for Coverage, we have undertaken initiatives to direct people to the Marketplace, including sending our patients to the official consumer sources (HealthCare.gov website and consumer call center) to learn about the Marketplace and get coverage, hanging posters and fact sheets in our facility, including an article about the Marketplace in our quarterly community newsletter, and having staff learn about the Marketplace in education sessions. We have also participated in a county-wide education session on the new healthcare exchange and have willingly provided positive, responsive answers to media inquiries.
Part VI, Line 4:	Located in rural, Northwestern Wisconsin, Burnett County is 880 square miles with 18.8 citizens per square mile (compared to the Wisconsin average of 105 citizens per square mile). Another way of realizing the size of Burnett County is evidenced by the fact that, the County's land mass would account for over 85% of the entire land mass of the state of Rhode Island (which has a population density of over 1,000 citizens per mile).Burnett County is the primary service area for Burnett Medical Center (BMC) and BMC is the sole hospital in Burnett County. While Burnett Medical Center is a 17 bed federally designated Critical Access Hospital, it also has a 50 bed long term care center, as well as a primary care clinic. Furthermore, Burnett County is a federally designated medically underserved area/population (ID number 03764), having been so designated on June 28, 1984.Not limited to serving just Burnett County, Burnett Medical Center also provides care for residents in varying degrees to residents living in one of the four adjoining Wisconsin counties (Douglas, Washburn, Polk, and Barron) as well as two adjoining counties in Minnesota (Pine and Chisago). Both Burnett County in Wisconsin and Pine County in Minnesota are designated as medically underserved areas, and the remaining counties aforementioned, have areas within their counties designated as medically underserved as well.Demographically, based on the most currently available US Census data, the 2016 estimates for Burnett County reflect a population of 15,159 which is a slight decrease from the 2015 census results, or a 1.9% decrease when compared to the 2010 census results.Burnett County is one of Wisconsin's poorer counties approaching nearly one in five persons (16.5%) living below the poverty level compared to the state average and a median income which is well below the state median income. Demographically our over 65 year old population represents more than one in four, or 26.3% of the population, and again well above the Wisconsin state average of 15.2%.According to the US Census data from July 2015, while the county population is comprised of predominately white persons at 91.85%, our next largest population is American Indian at 4.7% (compared to 1.1% overall for the state).There are similarities in our secondary service areas. For instance, in the neighboring counties of Polk County in Wisconsin and Pine County in Minnesota, based on Census bureau data, their comparisons show they too have far fewer persons per square mile, are relatively lower than their respective state averages for median household income, and relatively higher in the 65+ years of age population, as well as having greater than state average of both white persons and American Indians.Despite our rural location in Northwest Wisconsin, we are in a relatively competitive market as residents from both our primary and secondary service areas have access to ten hospitals (in either Wisconsin or Minnesota) within 50 miles of Burnett Medical Center's geographic location in Grantsburg, Wisconsin. As stated previously, Burnett Medical Center operates an employed-provider medical clinic which is one of many competitor clinics within our primary and secondary markets.Finally, we take our role as a vital part of a necessary health care safety net for all seriously, including the uninsured, as evidenced by our 24/7 emergency department which provides emergent, urgent, and primary care to all that present to the emergency department. We stand ready as, with pride, we are acutely aware of our mission of service to every patient, every minute, of every day.
Part VI, Line 5:	As a sole community rural hospital we take pride in being close to those we serve. We share with the community via print, social, and online media outlets relevant and helpful knowledge of our services, as well as educational information on various health topics. We also share and promote our mission throughout the communities served. We learn directly from those we serve by our Board of Directors governing structure which is composed of seven uncompensated community volunteers from throughout Burnett County, that reside in either our primary or secondary service area, none of which are neither employees, contractors, nor family members.We enjoy the continued support of our community via a healthcare Foundation, which provides philanthropic support to fulfilling the hospital's mission.In order to ensure continued and ready access to qualified healthcare providers, we take pride in having an open medical staff model that extends medical staff privileges to all qualified providers in our community.When we have surplus funds, those funds, combined with our local Foundation and other grants obtained through competitive processes, are used for improvements in patient care and quality, as evidenced by the purchase of new and needed capital equipment. We also have continued investments as an early adopter of the electronic medical record and we remain focused on achieving the goals of federally-established meaningful use guidelines and expectations.Advocacy of the communities healthcare needs are done locally by members of the Board speaking with local officials on relevant issues that may affect the hospital. Additionally, the organization's CEO continues to serve as a member of the Wisconsin Hospital Association's Public Policy Council, as well as a member of the hospital association's Network Adequacy Task Force, and Telemedicine Task Force in support of the association's mission and strategic plan that emphasizes advocacy for initiatives for community, state and national efforts for improving the overall health of the population and continued ready access to quality healthcare for all.Finally, mindful of the need for support of various methods of insurance, we are proud of our participation in such governmentally-sponsored healthcare programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, and TRICARE, all of which have an increased focus on the provision of valued based services, to include an increased emphasis on preventative care services. Such services focus on the early detection and intervention(s) which are designed to prevent or delay the harmful aspects more chronic health conditions, such as diabetes and congestive heart failure.
