THERE ARE THREE PRIORITIZED NEED AREAS AS WELL AS KEY FACTORS AND CONSIDERATIONS OF EACH NEED. THESE THREE AREAS ARE: OBESITY/CHRONIC CONDITIONS, ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, AND MENTAL HEALTH/SUBSTANCE ABUSE. A BROAD RANGE OF SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS AFFECT THE HEALTH OF INDIVIDUALS AND COMMUNITIES. THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS WHERE PEOPLE LIVE, WORK, LEARN, AND PLAY ARE CALLED SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH. SOCIAL DETERMINANTS CAN HAVE A PROFOUND INFLUENCE ON THE CHOICES THAT PEOPLE HAVE IN THEIR DAILY LIVES THAT PROMOTE OR INHIBIT HEALTH. WITHIN EACH OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEED AREAS, MULTIPLE FACTORS MUST BE CONSIDERED. EDUCATION, AND SOCIOECONOMIC/ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS GREATLY AFFECT AN INDIVIDUALS HEALTH STATUS AND ABILITY TO OVERCOME HEALTH ISSUES IN THE REGION. THE MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST CHNAS NOTED A PLETHORA OF COMMUNITY HEALTH ISSUES AS WELL AS HEALTH DISPARITIES ACROSS THE STUDY AREA. IT IS CRITICAL FOR HEALTH PROVIDERS AND COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS TO UNDERSTAND NOT ONLY THE REGIONAL HEALTH ISSUES, BUT TO BE AWARE OF WHERE DISPARITIES OCCUR TO PINPOINT WHAT SERVICES AND IMPROVEMENTS ARE MOST NEEDED. ADDRESSING THE COMMUNITY HEALTH PRIORITIES THE GOALS AND STRATEGIC ACTIONS DELINEATED IN THIS CHNA IMPLEMENTATION PLAN NARRATIVE ARE DEVELOPED TO ADDRESS EACH OF THE IDENTIFIED PRIORITY AREAS AND TO ENSURE A PATIENT-CENTERED AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT APPROACH. PRIORITY 1: OBESITY AND CHRONIC CONDITIONS (NUTRITION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, AND HEALTH EDUCATION) OBESITY OBESITY IS AN EPIDEMIC IN THE U.S. AND CONTRIBUTES TO SEVERAL LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH, INCLUDING HEART DISEASE, DIABETES, STROKE, AND SOME CANCERS. IF PRESENT TRENDS CONTINUE, BY 2030, 86 PERCENT OF ADULTS WILL BE OVERWEIGHT; 51 PERCENT WILL BE OBESE; AND NEARLY A THIRD OF ALL CHILDREN WILL BE OVERWEIGHT ACCORDING TO THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (2012). TOTAL HEALTH CARE COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO OBESITY/OVERWEIGHT ARE PREDICTED TO DOUBLE EACH DECADE. ENVIRONMENTAL, ECONOMIC, AND CULTURAL CONDITIONS GREATLY INFLUENCE HEALTH BEHAVIORS SUCH AS DIET AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE RISE IN OBESITY RATES. OBESITY RATES ARE HIGHER AMONG LOW-INCOME ADULTS AND CHILDREN AND AMONG AMERICAN INDIANS/ALASKA NATIVE, BLACK, AND HISPANIC INDIVIDUALS. CHILDREN LIVING IN DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES AND NEIGHBORHOODS ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE OBESE. MOST ADULTS IN THE U.S. DO NOT MEET THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY GUIDELINES FOR AMERICANS. OBESITY IS PARTICULARLY PREVALENT ACROSS STATES IN THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE U.S. THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA IS PLAGUED BY HIGH RATES OF OBESITY, AS THE STATE HAD THE 10TH HIGHEST OBESITY RATE IN THE NATION IN 2014. NORTH CAROLINA HAD THE 24TH HIGHEST OBESITY RATE IN 2014. BOTH COMMUNITY LEADERS AND STAKEHOLDERS CITED OBESITY AS A TOP HEALTH CONCERN DURING THE PREVIOUS 2013 CHNA PROCESS. THE OBESITY RATES IN THE MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST STUDY AREAS CLOSELY MIMIC THOSE IN THE STATES AND U.S., AS BOTH STUDY AREAS HAVE OBESITY RATES (OR BMI ABOVE 30.0) THAT ARE CLOSE TO 30 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION. AMONG THE COUNTIES, ADULT OBESITY IS HIGHEST IN COLUMBUS COUNTY WITH 30.8 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION BEING OBESE. CHRONIC CONDITIONS OBESITY IS A KEY FACTOR IN PREVENTING CHRONIC DISEASES SUCH AS HYPERTENSION, HEART DISEASE, DIABETES AND STROKE. ADULTS WHO ARE OVERWEIGHT ARE MORE LIKELY TO HAVE HYPERTENSION AND HIGH CHOLESTEROL, BOTH OF WHICH CAN LEAD TO MAJOR HEALTH ISSUES LIKE HEART DISEASE AND STROKE. OBESITY AND CHRONIC DISEASES HAVE A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON A PERSONS GENERAL HEALTH AND OVERALL WELL-BEING. IT IS NOTED THAT THE COUNTIES THAT EXPERIENCE THE HIGHEST RATES OF OBESITY AND CHRONIC CONDITIONS ALSO REPORT HIGHER PERCENTAGES OF RESIDENTS WITH POOR OR FAIR HEALTH. COLUMBUS COUNTY HAS THE HIGHEST PERCENT OF ADULTS WHO ARE OBESE AT 30.8 PERCENT AND ALSO HAS THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF ADULTS WHO REPORT HAVING POOR OR FAIR GENERAL HEALTH AT 28.6 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION. THIS PERCENTAGE IS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN THE OTHER COUNTIES, STATES, AND U.S. HEART DISEASE AND HYPERTENSION CHRONIC CONDITIONS THAT STEM FROM OBESITY ARE PROMINENT IN SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH CAROLINA, AND THE STUDY AREA. SOUTH CAROLINA HAS THE EIGHTH HIGHEST HYPERTENSION RATE IN THE U.S. WHILE NORTH CAROLINA HAS THE 11TH HIGHEST HYPERTENSION RATE IN THE NATION. WHILE BOTH SOUTH CAROLINA AND NORTH CAROLINA HAVE HIGH RATES OF CHRONIC DISEASES, A NUMBER OF CHRONIC DISEASES ARE EVEN MORE PREVALENT IN THE STUDY AREA. -46.1 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION IN THE MCLEOD SEACOAST STUDY AREA HAS HIGH CHOLESTEROL; A GREATER PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION IN THE STUDY AREA HAS HIGH CHOLESTEROL COMPARED TO NORTH CAROLINA (38.5 PERCENT), SOUTH CAROLINA (41.5 PERCENT), AND U.S. (38.5 PERCENT). -6.4 PERCENT OF RESIDENTS IN THE STUDY AREA HAVE HEART DISEASE. THIS PERCENTAGE IS HIGHER THAN THE STATES (4.6 PERCENT IN NORTH CAROLINA AND 4.6 PERCENT IN SOUTH CAROLINA) AND NATION (4.4 PERCENT). COMMUNITY LEADERS FREQUENTLY MENTIONED HEART DISEASE AS A CHRONIC DISEASE CONCERN. HEART DISEASE ALSO WAS A TOP CONCERN IN THE 2013 MCLEOD LORIS AND SEACOAST CHNA. -THE STUDY AREA HAS A HIGHER RATE OF MORTALITY DUE TO HEART DISEASE COMPARED TO NORTH CAROLINA, SOUTH CAROLINA, AND THE U.S. THE MORTALITY RATE DUE TO HEART DISEASE IN THE STUDY AREA IS 198.5 PER 100,000 POPULATION. DIABETES NATIONWIDE, IT IS ESTIMATED THAT NEARLY 26 MILLION PEOPLE HAVE DIABETES, INCLUDING OVER A QUARTER WITH THE CONDITION UNDIAGNOSED, AND THAT 79 MILLION PEOPLE ARE PRE-DIABETIC, WITH BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS THAT INCREASE THE RISK OF DEVELOPING DIABETES. THE PREVALENCE OF DIABETES INCREASES WITH AGE, AND NEARLY 27 PERCENT OF THOSE OVER AGE 65 HAVE DIABETES. AMONG RACIAL AND ETHNIC GROUPS, DIABETES PREVALENCE IS HIGHEST AMONG AFRICAN AMERICANS. THE RISE OF DIABETES PREVALENCE CORRESPONDS WITH THE RISE IN OBESITY RATES, AND CHILDREN ARE INCREASINGLY AFFECTED BY BOTH OBESITY AND DIABETES. IT IS DOCUMENTED AMONG DIABETES EDUCATORS THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE GENERALLY UNAWARE OF THE SERIOUSNESS OF DIABETES. THEY ALSO NOTE THAT PEOPLE WHO ARE NEWLY DIAGNOSED ARE OFTEN OVERWHELMED, CONFRONTED WITH MISINFORMATION, OR FEEL THEY ARE POWERLESS TO MAKE POSITIVE CHANGES TO CONTROL THE DISEASE. SOUTH CAROLINA HAS THE SEVENTH HIGHEST DIABETES RATE IN THE U.S. 15.0 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION IN THE MCLEOD SEACOAST HAS DIABETES, WHILE 11.2 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION IN SOUTH CAROLINA, 10.2 PERCENT IN NORTH CAROLINA, AND 9.1 PERCENT IN THE U.S. HAS DIABETES. RESIDENTS WHO ARE LIVING IN POVERTY AND ARE UNINSURED OFTENTIMES FACE CHALLENGES ACCESSING CARE FOR HEALTH CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED WITH DIABETES DUE TO THE COST OF CARE, WHICH CAN RESULT IN HIGHER RATES OF HOSPITALIZATIONS DUE TO DIABETES COMPLICATIONS. A MAJORITY OF COMMUNITY LEADERS WHO WERE INTERVIEWED AND PARTICIPATED IN THE FORUM, AS PART OF THE CHNA, IDENTIFIED ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE AS THE TOP HEALTH NEED FOR THE POPULATIONS THEY SERVED. MANY DEATHS THAT ARE ATTRIBUTED TO CHRONIC DISEASE ARE CONSIDERED TO BE PREMATURE, BEFORE AGE 75, BECAUSE OF BEHAVIORS LIKE SMOKING, POOR DIET, LACK OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE, AS WELL AS SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS. IN THE U.S., PEOPLE WITH LOWER INCOMES ARE MORE LIKELY TO DIE PREMATURELY THAN THOSE WITH HIGHER INCOMES. LIFE EXPECTANCY AT BIRTH IS THE NUMBER OF YEARS A NEWBORN CAN EXPECT TO LIVE IF THE CURRENT AGE-SPECIFIC DEATH RATES STAY THE SAME FOR HIS OR HER LIFE. IN SOUTH CAROLINA, LIFE EXPECTANCY IS 76.5 YEARS. LIFE EXPECTANCY IN NORTH CAROLINA IS 77.8 YEARS. NUTRITION MANY ADULTS AND CHILDREN DO NOT EAT THE RECOMMENDED SERVINGS OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES AS THE FOODS THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH HEALTHY DIETS OFTEN COST MORE THAN UNHEALTHY FOODS AND ARE UNAFFORDABLE FOR MANY LOW INCOME AND UNINSURED FAMILIES. IN 2015, 45.2 PERCENT OF SURVEYED ADULTS REPORTED CONSUMING FRUIT LESS THAN ONE TIME DAILY, WHILE 26.8 PERCENT OF ADULTS REPORTED CONSUMING VEGETABLES LESS THAN ONE TIME DAILY. BOTH BRUNSWICK AND HORRY COUNTIES HAVE HIGH PERCENTAGES OF RESIDENTS WHO DO NOT EAT THE RECOMMENDED AMOUNT OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES PER DAY (FIVE OR MORE SERVINGS) WITH 87.1 PERCENT AND 86.0 PERCENT, RESPECTIVELY, OF RESIDENTS WHO DO NOT CONSUME THE RECOMMENDED SERVING. THESE PERCENTAGES ARE HIGHER THAN THOSE IN NORTH CAROLINA (78.4 PERCENT), SOUTH CAROLINA (80.9 PERCENT), AND U.S. (75.7 PERCENT). PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN ADDITION TO A HEALTHY DIET, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY ALSO IS IMPORTANT TO LEADING A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE AND OBESITY AND CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION. PHYSICAL INACTIVITY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ONE IN 10 DEATHS AMONG U.S. ADULTS. AMONG THE STATES IN THE U.S., SOUTH CAROLINA IS THE 13TH MOST PHYSICALLY INACTIVE STATE, WHILE NORTH CAROLINA FALLS IN THE MIDDLE AS THE 25TH MOST PHYSICALLY INACTIVE STATE. HEALTH EDUCA SCH, H PART V, SECTION B, LINE 3 CONTINUED MENTAL HEALTH THE MAJORITY OF ADULTS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS RECEIVED NO MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT IN THE LAST YEAR, INDICATING A NATIONWIDE ISSUE WITH INDIVIDUALS BEING ABLE TO RECEIVE PROPER MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES AND TREATMENT. THERE IS A LACK OF MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS AVAILABLE TO UNITED STATES CITIZENS. CLOSE TO 91 MILLION ADULTS LIVE IN AREAS WHERE THERE IS A SHORTAGE OF MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. THE PRIMARY DATA RECEIVED FROM RESIDENTS, HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, AND COMMUNITY LEADERS ACROSS THE CHNA STUDY AREAS SHOWED THE NEED FOR ATTENTION TO MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES. SUBSTANCE ABUSE IN MANY INSTANCES, MENTAL ILLNESS AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE GO HAND-IN-HAND; AMONG THE 20.2 MILLION ADULTS IN THE U.S. WITH A SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUE, APPROXIMATELY 10.2 MILLION ALSO HAVE A CO-OCCURRING MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE. IN PARTICULAR, PRESCRIPTION DRUG ABUSE HAS BECOME A GROWING CONCERN IN THE MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST COMMUNITIES. SOUTH CAROLINA HAS THE 11TH HIGHEST RATE IN THE COUNTRY FOR PRESCRIBING PAINKILLERS, WITH 102 PRESCRIPTIONS WRITTEN FOR EVERY 100 PATIENTS. ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL CARE MANAGING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES IS ESSENTIAL, AS MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE CAN HAVE DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS ON THE HEALTH OF INDIVIDUALS AND COMMUNITIES. UNTREATED MENTAL ILLNESS AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ADDICTIONS PREVENT INDIVIDUALS FROM LEADING EVERY DAY LIVES, WHICH INCLUDES OBTAINING AN EDUCATION AND HAVING A STABLE JOB, BOTH OF WHICH ARE IMPORTANT TO AN INDIVIDUALS WELL-BEING AS WELL AS THE OVERALL HEALTH OF A COMMUNITY. THE RATE OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDERS, COST OF CARE, AND UNINSURED LEVELS PLAY A ROLE IN A PERSONS ABILITY TO RECEIVE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE. COMMUNITY LEADERS DURING THE CHNA PROCESS CITED THE NEED FOR MORE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS AS MENTAL ILLNESS AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE BECOME INCREASINGLY PREVALENT IN THE REGION. THE COUNTIES THAT COMPRISE THE MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST STUDY AREAS HAVE A LOWER RATE OF MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS IN COMPARISON TO SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH CAROLINA, AND U.S. THE PRIMARY FOCUS OF THE FOLLOWING GOALS AND STRATEGIES ADDRESS IMPROVING ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES IN THE COMMUNITY. GOAL 1: IMPROVE ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. STRATEGY 1: PARTNER WITH WACCAMAW MENTAL HEALTH TO FIND PLACEMENT FOR MENTAL HEALTH PATIENTS. STRATEGY 2: CONTRACT WITH AN INDEPENDENT PSYCHIATRIST TO SERVE IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT WHEN NEEDED. STRATEGY 3: CREATE NEW PSYCHIATRIC ROOM AT MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST. STRATEGY 4: OFFER TELE-PSYCH SERVICES THROUGH THE SC DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH. STRATEGY 5: IMPROVE ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE SERVICES AND MEDICATIONS FOR UNINSURED ADULTS THROUGHOUT HORRY COUNTY. ACTION -PROVIDE REPRESENTATIVES ONSITE AT MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST TO ASSIST PATIENTS WITH SIGNING UP FOR THE PROGRAM. STRATEGY 6: ENCOURAGE EMPLOYEES TO USE THE EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (EAP) FOR MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ASSISTANCE. THE NEED FOR MORE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS WAS STRONGLY EMPHASIZED BY COMMUNITY LEADERS DURING THE MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST CHNA STUDIES AS MENTAL ILLNESS AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY PREVALENT IN THE REGION. TREATMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH IS OFTEN REACTIVE IN THE FORM OF CRISIS INTERVENTION THROUGH HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOMS RATHER THAN PROACTIVE PRACTICES. ADDITIONAL BARRIERS TO MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES INCLUDE OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS/INSURANCE COVERAGE, NEGATIVE SOCIAL STIGMAS, AND LACK OF HEALTH EDUCATION. MANY RESIDENTS WHO HAVE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES ALSO TEND TO HAVE MULTIPLE BEHAVIORAL DIAGNOSES, MAKING IT EVEN MORE ESSENTIAL FOR THOSE IN NEED TO HAVE ACCESS TO AND RECEIVE CONTINUOUS TREATMENT. MCLEOD LORIS AND SEACOAST WILL TAKE A PROACTIVE APPROACH TO COMBATTING THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES IN THE COMMUNITY BY PARTNERING WITH WACCAMAW MENTAL HEALTH TO FIND PROPER PLACEMENT FOR MENTAL HEALTH PATIENTS, WHERE PATIENTS CAN RECEIVE CARE AND TREATMENT TAILORED TO THEIR MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS. HAVING AN INDEPENDENT PSYCHIATRIST IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS OF LORIS AND SEACOAST, AS WELL AS CREATING A PSYCHIATRIC ROOM AT BOTH HOSPITALS WILL PROVIDE THE HOSPITALS WITH TOOLS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE SERVICES WITHIN THEIR OWN FACILITIES. THE USE OF TELE-PSYCHIATRY SERVICES HAS GREATLY ENHANCED ACCESS TO SPECIALTY PROVIDERS FOR RURAL AND UNDERSERVED RESIDENTS. IN THE ABSENCE OF A READILY AVAILABLE SPECIALIST AND PROVIDERS, TELEPSYCHIATRY CAN BE AN EFFECTIVE TOOL FOR PATIENT EVALUATION AND FACILITATING ACCESS TO CARE WITHIN A RURAL SETTING. THE SC DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH AND PALMETTO CARE CONNECTIONS WILL SERVE AS AN IMPORTANT COMMUNITY RESOURCE FOR THIS INITIATIVE. MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST ALSO WILL ENCOURAGE AND SUPPORT PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ASSISTANCE TO RESIDENTS AND EMPLOYEES. LORIS AND SEACOAST WILL CONTINUE TO PARTNER WITH ACCESSHEALTH HORRY, WHICH HELPS UNINSURED RESIDENTS IN HORRY COUNTY FIND REDUCED-FEE MEDICAL CARE AND PRESCRIPTION DRUG ASSISTANCE. LORIS AND SEACOAST WILL WORK WITH ACCESSHEALTH TO ENROLL RESIDENTS IN HOP; THIS PROGRAM WILL HELP RESIDENTS DEALING WITH FREQUENT MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE FIND A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER AND HEALTH SERVICES TO TREAT THEIR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES. THE EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (EAP) AT LORIS AND SEACOAST HELPS TO PROVIDE SIMILAR MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ASSISTANCE THROUGH MATCHING EMPLOYEES WITH THE PROPER HEALTH CARE TREATMENT SERVICES, AS EVIDENCE SHOWS WORK SITE BASED INTERVENTIONS ARE HIGHLY EFFECTIVE. IMPLEMENTATION NEXT STEPS THE MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST CHNA IMPLEMENTATION PLAN DEFINES OUR COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY, DOCUMENTS HOW THE IDENTIFIED COMMUNITY NEEDS WILL BE MET, AND ENSURES THAT RESULTS AND IMPACT ON THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY WILL BE REPORTED AND COMMUNICATED. EFFORTS TO MEASURABLY IMPACT THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY ARE ON-GOING AS 2016-2019 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES ARE ALIGNED WITH THE SYSTEMS STRATEGIC FOCUS AND ORGANIZATIONAL GOALS. COMMUNICATION AND CONTINUOUS PLANNING EFFORTS ARE VITAL THROUGHOUT THE NEXT FEW YEARS. INFORMATION REGARDING THE CHNA FINDINGS AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN DEPLOYMENT WILL BE IMPORTANT TO RESIDENTS, COMMUNITY GROUPS, LEADERS AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS THAT SEEK TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES IN THE MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST STUDY AREAS AND HOW TO BEST SERVE THOSE NEEDS. EVALUATION AND PROGRESS ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF COMMUNITY INITIATIVES WILL BE REPORTED AT LEAST ANNUALLY AND WILL BE INCLUDED IN COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORTING. SCH H, PART V, SECTION B, LINE 4 MCLEOD LORIS AND MCLEOD SEACOAST HOSPITAL WERE BOTH COVERED BY MCLEOD HEALTH'S HORRY COUNTY CHNA. SCH H PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11 THERE HAS NOT BEEN ADEQUATE TIME OR RESOURCES TO ADDRESS ALL THE NEEDS AT THIS TIME. SCH H. PART III, LINE 4 NET PATIENT REVENUES ARE REPORTED AT THE ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE AMOUNT RECEIVED, OR TO BE RECEIVED, FROM PATIENTS, THIRD PARTY PAYOR, AND OTHERS FOR THE SPECIFIC SERVICES AND SUPPLIES RENDERED, INCLUDING ESTIMATE RETROACTIVE ADJUSTMENTS UNDER REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT WITH THIRD PARTY PAYOR. FOR THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN LINES 2 AND 3, WE USED THE IRS METHOD TO CALCULATE THE RATIO OF PATIENT COST TO CHARGES, AS SHOWN ON PAGE 13 OF THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE H (WORKSHEET 2). THE CALCULATED RATIO WAS THEN APPLIED TO THE GROSS CHARGES WRITTEN OFF TO BAD DEBT (NET OF RECOVERIES). SCH H, PART III, LINE 8 THE ORGANIZATION FEELS THAT THE TOTAL SHORTFALL OF MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT COMPARED TO COMPUTED MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS SHOULD BE TREATED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THE HOSPITAL IMPROVES ACCESS TO PATIENT CARE BY PROVIDING SERVICES REGARDLESS OF A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY OR THE HOSPITAL'S ABILITY TO RECEIVE FULL COST REIMBURSEMENT FOR SERVICES. THE HOSPITAL ALSO RELIEVES THE GOVERNMENT OF A FINANCIAL BURDEN WHEN IT PROVIDES CARE TO PUBLICLY-INSURED PATIENTS WHERE REIMBURSEMENT IS LESS THAN THE COST OF PROVIDING THE SERVICE. SCH H, PART III, LINE 9B MCLEOD'S CHARITY POLICY OUTLINES THE CRITERIA USED TO DETERMINE PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY. WHEN PATIENTS HAVE FURNISHED THE REQUIRED INFORMATION, IT IS REVIEWED AND A DETERMINATION IS MADE. IF APPROVED FOR CHARITY CARE, THEIR ACCOUNT BALANCES ARE ADJUSTED BASED ON THE PERCENTAGE THEY QUALIFY FOR USING A CHARITY ADJUSTMENT CODE. IF ALL REQUIRED INFORMATION IS NOT FURNISHED, THE PATIENT IS NOTIFIED THAT THEIR CHARITY APPLICATION WAS NOT APPROVED DUE TO FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE NECESSARY INFORMATION. FOLLOWING THAT NOTIFICATION, THE ACCOUNT GENERALLY TRANSFERS TO BAD DEBT FOR FURTHER COLLECTION ACTION. SCH H, PART VI, LINE 2 IN ADDITION TO THE CHNA DESCRIBED ABOVE FOR MCLEOD LORIS SEACOAST HOSPITAL (LORIS). LORIS HAS A COMMUNITY BOARD THAT CONSISTS OF LOCAL PHYSICIANS AND OTHER INFLUENTIAL COMMUNITY LEADERS. THIS BOARD MEETS SEMI-MONTHLY AND THE LEADERS PROVIDE INPUT FROM VARIOUS PARTS OF THE COMMUNITY TO ASSIST LORIS IN ASSESSING THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY.
