FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5	MERCY CONDUCTED ITS 2016 CHNA IN COLLABORATION WITH OZARKS HEALTH COMMISSION, A REGIONAL COALITION DESCRIBED IN DETAIL BELOW. IN CONDUCTING THE CHNA IN COLLABORATION, MERCY ALSO COLLECTED ITS OWN INPUT AND DATA FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTS. AN ELECTRONIC COMMUNITY SURVEY WAS DISTRIBUTED TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS FROM AUGUST 2015 TO DECEMBER 2015 REQUESTING INPUT ON PARTICIPANTS HEALTH CONCERNS, PERCEIVED BARRIERS TO IMPROVED HEALTH, AND HEALTH NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY. 383 RESPONSES (15% OF TOTAL SURVEY) WERE RECEIVED AND EVALUATED FROM RESIDENTS AND ORGANIZATIONS WITHIN THE MERCY HOSPITAL ROGERS COMMUNITY.

FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11	DURING TAX YEAR 2015, WHILE THE 2016 CHNA WAS BEING CONDUCTED, MERCY CONTINUED TO ADDRESS SIGNIFICANT NEEDS PREVIOUSLY IDENTIFIED IN THE 2012-2013 CHNA. SIGNIFICANT NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED IN FOUR PRIORITY AREAS IN THE 2012-2013 CHNA: 1. ACCESS TO CARE. MERCY CONTINUED TO COLLABORATE WITH A COMMUNITY ENROLLMENT COUNSELOR TO ENROLL PARTICIPANTS IN THE ACA HEALTH PLAN AND PRIVATE OPTION. MOBILE MAMMOGRAPHY SERVICE CONTINUED TO SERVE RURAL AND UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS IN BENTON AND WASHINGTON COUNTIES. 790 WOMEN WERE SCREENED AT 8 LOCATIONS. 2 NEW LOCATIONS WERE ADDED DURING THIS TAX YEAR. 350 FREE INFLUENZA VACCINES WERE PROVIDED TO MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED AND RURAL COMMUNITY RESIDENTS USING THE MERCY MOBILE HEALTH UNIT AND HOSPITAL VOLUNTEERS. PLANS FOR A CHRONIC DISEASE SCREENING PROGRAM TARGETED AT MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED AND MINORITY POPULATIONS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH A LOCAL NONPROFIT SERVICE PROVIDER WERE DEVELOPED. PROGRAMS WILL BEGIN IN TAX YEAR 2016. A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE LOCAL FQHC WAS UNDERTAKEN TO PROVIDE SPECIALTY CARE TO UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO HAVE BEEN PREVIOUSLY UNABLE TO ACCESS CARE. 27 PATIENTS WERE SEEN IN SPECIALTY CLINICS THIS TAX YEAR THROUGH THIS PROGRAM. THE PREVIOUSLY IDENTIFIED NEED RELATED TO ACCESS TO CARE IN REGARDS TO SHIFTING LOWER LEVEL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENTS AWAY FROM THE ED TO URGENT CARE CENTERS WAS NOT PURSUED DUE TO LACK OF URGENT CARE AND CONVENIENT CARE CAPACITY. 2. HEALTH/WELLNESS EDUCATION. HEALTHY FOR LIFE WEIGHT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM FOR FAMILIES WAS BEGUN AND OFFERED TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS. TWO 12 WEEK SESSIONS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED, AND FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROGRAM IS IN PROGRESS.

FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 22	ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES FOR INCOME ARE THE BASIS FOR DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS. FOR EXAMPLE, INDIVIDUALS WITH INCOMES BELOW 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE CARE. INDIVIDUALS WITH INCOMES GREATER THAN 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR CARE AT DISCOUNTED RATES DEPENDING ON THEIR INCOME LEVEL AND/OR THE AMOUNT DUE TO THE HOSPITAL. TO DETERMINE THE MAXIMUM AMOUNTS THAT CAN BE CHARGED TO FAP-ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUALS FOR EMERGENCY OR OTHER MEDICALLY NECESSARY CARE, THE HOSPITAL FACILITY USES AMOUNTS GENERALLY BILLED TO INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE INSURANCE COVERING SUCH CARE.

FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7G	THE ORGANIZATION DID NOT INCLUDE ANY PHYSICIAN CLINIC COSTS ON LINE 7G.
FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART II	MERCY CONDUCTED FOUR WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES TO PROMOTE HEALTH PROFESSIONS CAREERS FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL, HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE STUDENTS. 1. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS FOR MEDICAL SCIENCES, MERCY CONDUCTED THE MEDICAL APPLICATION OF SCIENCE FOR HEALTH (MASH) PROGRAM. THIS IS A TWO WEEK INTENSIVE PROGRAM FOR 10 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS CONSIDERING MEDICAL CAREERS. 2. THE ANNUAL STEAM FAIR WAS HELD IN A RURAL, LOW-INCOME MIDDLE SCHOOL TO EXPOSE STUDENTS TO HEALTH CARE CAREERS.

COLLEGE STUDENT VOLUNTEER PROGRAM PROVIDES COLLEGE STUDENTS OPPORTUNITIES TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE IN THEIR RELATED FIELDS OF STUDY AND HELPS TO ENCOURAGE AND EDUCATE THEM ABOUT HEALTH CARE CAREERS. 19 STUDENTS WERE SERVED THIS YEAR.
FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A, LINE 2	TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE, AT COST, BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS WAS MULTIPLIED BY A RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES. THE RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES USED WAS BASED ON DETAILED COST ACCOUNT, WHERE AVAILABLE. WHERE COST ACCOUNTING IS NOT AVAILABLE, COST REPORT COST TO CHARGE RATIOS WERE UTILIZED.
FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A, LINE 3	THE FILING ORGANIZATION DETERMINED THAT THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY IS $0. ALTHOUGH THE CHARITY CARE POLICY REQUIRES THE PARTICIPATION OF THE PATIENT REQUESTING ASSISTANCE, WE HAVE A PROCESS UNDER PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY TO ADDRESS ACCOUNTS FOR PATIENTS WHO DO NOT PROVIDE THE INFORMATION. WE BELIEVE THAT OUR CHARITY POLICY IS COMPREHENSIVE ENOUGH TO CAPTURE ALMOST ALL PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE.
FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION A, LINE 4	THE TEXT OF THE FOOTNOTE THAT IS INCLUDED IN MERCY HEALTH AND SUBSIDIARIES AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT DESCRIBES BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS AS FOLLOWS: "PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE THAT ARE DEEMED UNCOLLECTIBLE, INCLUDING THOSE PLACED WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES, ARE INITIALLY CHARGED AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH COLLECTION POLICIES OF THE HEALTH SYSTEM AND, IN CERTAIN CASES, ARE RECLASSIFIED TO CHARITY CARE IF DEEMED TO OTHERWISE MEET THE HEALTH SYSTEMS CHARITY CARE POLICY. THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES IS BASED UPON MANAGEMENTS ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE COVERAGE, AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. PERIODICALLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, MANAGEMENT ASSESSES THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES BASED UPON THE PAYOR COMPOSITION AND AGING OF RECEIVABLES WITH CONSIDERATION OF THE HISTORICAL PAYMENT AND WRITE-OFF EXPERIENCE BY PAYOR CATEGORY. THE RESULTS OF THESE REVIEWS ARE THEN USED TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES TO ESTABLISH AN APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES. AFTER SATISFACTION OF AMOUNTS DUE FROM INSURANCE, THE HEALTH SYSTEM FOLLOWS ESTABLISHED GUIDELINES FOR PLACING PAST-DUE PATIENT BALANCES WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES."
FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION B, LINE 8	IT IS THE POSITION OF MERCY THAT 100% OF ANY SHORTFALL SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THIS AMOUNT REPRESENTS COST OF PROVIDING SERVICES THAT REMAIN UNCOMPENSATED TO THE PROVIDER. THE UNREIMBURSED COSTS OF MEDICARE IS CALCULATED BY THE GROSS CHARGES NET OF THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO LESS ANY PAYMENTS, DEDUCTIONS OR REIMBURSEMENTS USING THE ANNUAL MEDICARE COST REPORT (CMS FORM 2552-96).
FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART III, SECTION C, LINE 9B	MERCYS COLLECTION POLICY PROVIDES THAT MERCY WILL PERFORM A REASONABLE COMMUNICATION AND/OR REVIEW OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS AS IT RELATES TO ANY SERVICE PROVIDED AT OUR FACILITIES BEFORE TURNING THE ACCOUNT TO BAD DEBT OR TAKING LEGAL ACTION FOR NONPAYMENT. MERCY ACTIVELY SCRUBS ACCOUNTS FOR PAYOR PLAN COVERAGE, INCLUDING MEDICAID. IN THE EVENT AN ACCOUNT IS TURNED TO COLLECTIONS AND IS IDENTIFIED IN NEED OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCE CHANGES, OR IS NOW REQUESTING ASSISTANCE, THE ACCOUNTS ARE RETURNED BY THE AGENCY AND CONSIDERED FOR CHARITY IF THE PATIENT PROVIDES THE REQUESTED INFORMATION. IF THE PATIENT FAILS TO RETURN THE INFORMATION, THE ACCOUNT WILL QUALIFY FOR COLLECTIONS. MERCY UTILIZES THE EXPERIAN TOOL TO ENHANCE THE ABILITY TO DETERMINE THE CHARITY QUALIFICATION PRIOR TO TURNING TO BAD DEBT, A PROCESS KNOWN AS PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY. MERCY WILL GRANT CHARITY IN SITUATIONS WHERE THERE HAS BEEN AN INABILITY TO OBTAIN INFORMATION FROM PATIENTS OR THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IS NOT COMPLETE ENOUGH TO MAKE A CHARITY DETERMINATION WHEN A PATIENT HAS SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION. IN ADDITION, MERCY UTILIZES THE SAME TOOL TO QUALIFY ACCOUNTS PER THE PRACTICE OF PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY PRIOR TO BAD DEBT PLACEMENT FOR BALANCES IN EXCESS OF $6,500. ALL ACCOUNT BALANCES RELATING TO ACCOUNTS IDENTIFIED BY THE HIGHER BALANCES WILL BE CONSIDERED AND FLAGGED FOR CHARITY IF THERE IS AN INABILITY TO PAY AFTER A RETURN FROM THE COLLECTION AGENCY AT APPROXIMATELY 120 DAYS. MERCY WILL PURSUE APPROPRIATE MEANS IN THE COLLECTION OF DELINQUENT ACCOUNTS FROM PATIENTS WITH AN ESTABLISHED ABILITY TO PAY OR AN UNWILLINGNESS TO COOPERATE IN VALIDATING ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THESE APPROPRIATE MEANS MAY INCLUDE LEGAL ACTION CONSISTENT WITH MERCY MISSION AND VALUES AFTER A SENDING 3 MONTHLY STATEMENTS WITH THE FINAL INCLUDING NOTIFICATION; IF NO RESOLUTION THEY WILL BE TURNED TO COLLECTIONS. ADDITIONALLY, THEY MAY INCLUDE LIENS UPON REAL PROPERTY AND REASONABLE WAGE GARNISHMENTS. LEGAL ACTIONS WILL GENERALLY NOT INCLUDE BANK GARNISHMENTS, REPOSSESSION OF ASSETS OR FORECLOSURES TO ENSURE SATISFACTION OF A LIEN. MERCY HAS POLICIES AND PROCEDURES ESTABLISHED TO ADDRESS THE INITIATION OF LEGAL ACTION AND ANNUALLY REVIEW COMPLIANCE WITH POLICIES BUT ENSURE 120 DAYS OF BILLING AND COLLECTIONS OCCURS PRIOR TO ANY EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTIONS ARE PURSUED.
