Form And Line Reference	Part X, Line 2:	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	Roper St. Francis Mt. Pleasant Hospital is a not-for-profit organization as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is generally exempt from federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is made in the consolidated financial statements. Although [the consolidated group] is generally exempt from federal and state income taxes, it evaluates whether there are any uncertain tax positions that fail to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition in the consolidated financial statements. Uncertain tax positions may include the characterization of income, such as a characterization of income as passive, a decision to exclude reporting taxable income in a tax return, or a decision to classify a transaction, entity, or other position in a tax return as tax exempt. The tax return benefit from an uncertain tax position is recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. The organization has no unrecognized tax positions as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and does not expect that unrecognized tax benefits will materially increase within the next 12 months. Tax years 2012 through 2014 are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities, respectively. There are no income tax examinations currently in process. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, would be recognized in the consolidated financial statements as income tax expense.	ExplanationTxt

Roper St. Francis Mt. Pleasant Hospital	Part V, Section B, Line 5: The Community Needs Assessment Team entered into dialogue with key hospital administrators, physicians, those with knowledge/expertise in public health, and those serving underserved and chronic disease populations. During the community input phase, the team conducted face-to-face interviews, phone interviews, and surveys in which respondents were able to comment and discuss general community health issues of their specific service area. Through these numerous interviews and surveys, a summary of community input was created. This summary would eventually be used to help focus in on priorities and ultimately, implementation strategies. Respondents who participated in this phase included experts in the field of public health, hospital administration members, community outreach groups, and other local organizations. Respondents included Dana Millet, Director of DHEC Lowcountry Region, Joseph Chambers, MD; Public Health expert and consultant, Thaddeus Bell, MD; with Closing the Gap in Healthcare. Other respondents were from focus groups in the Charleston Promise Neighborhood (North Charleston), East Cooper Community Outreach (Mt. Pleasant), Neighborhood House (Charleston), and Our Lady of Mercy Outreach Center (Johns Island).
Roper St. Francis Mt. Pleasant Hospital	Part V, Section B, Line 6a: Roper St. Francis Healthcare decided to produce a joint CHNA report in collaboration with its three Charleston area hospitals as those facilities define their communities to be the same. These hospitals include Roper Hospital Inc., Bon Secours St Francis Xavier Hospital, and Mount Pleasant Hospital . Each of these hospitals has a customized implementation plan.
Roper St. Francis Mt. Pleasant Hospital	Part V, Section B, Line 11: The organization has programs in place that address all of the community needs identified by the CHNA. However, RSFH senior leadership identified 6 issues as strategic priorities to address in the implementation plan for its current CHNA. For the needs that did not emerge as strategic priority areas, Roper St. Francis Healthcare will continue to provide the current support and services as listed in Schedule H, Part VI, question 4.
Roper St. Francis Mt. Pleasant Hospital	Part V, Section B, Line 13b: A 10% prompt pay discount is also offered to all self-pay or self-pay-after-insurance patients who pay the account balance at one time.
Roper St. Francis Mt. Pleasant Hospital	Part V, Section B, Line 16i: The patient handbook provided with registration references the policy and includes contact information for patients who need assistance.
Roper St. Francis Mt. Pleasant Hospital	Part V, Section B, Line 20e: We also send the patient a letter when they complete an application - either approving or denying their application.
Roper St. Francis Mt. Pleasant Hospital	Part V, Section B, Line 22d: The hospital's FAP provides a minimum discount of 90% for individuals that qualify under the policy's provisions. The hospital has made plans to implement a method of determining Amounts Generally Billed (AGB) per the recently released Proposed Regulations under IRC Section 501(r), however given the high level of discount available under the current policy, the organization is confident that its policies are well within guidelines.

Part I, Line 3c:	In addition to using the federal poverty guidelines to determine free and discounted care (see Part I, Lines 3a and 3b), the hospital system offers a 35% discount for patients who are uninsured. A 10% prompt payment discount is offered to all self-pay or self-pay-after-insurance patients who pay the balance at one time. Medical indigency adjustments are available to those that meet the established guidelines.The Hospital will provide free care for patients with a signed charity care application who have income between 0 - 299% of FPG. If a signed charity care application is not obtained, after 120 days of collection efforts, the hospital will use the Health Care Advisory Board's self pay compass program to automatically qualify patients for charity care through the use of an electronic scoring technique. The hospital will provide free care for patients who have income of 350% and below of FPG as determined by the self pay compass program.The Hospital will provide a 90% discount for patients with a signed charity care application who have income between 300 - 399% of FPG. If a signed charity care application is not obtained, the hospital will not provide discounted care.
Part I, Line 6a:	The organization's community benefit report is made available through its corporate parent, CareAlliance Health Services d/b/a Roper St. Francis Healthcare.
Part I, Line 7:	Worksheet 2 of the 2015 Schedule H instructions was used to compute a cost-to-charges ration used to calculate charity care and unreimbursed Medicaid at cost.
Part I, Ln 7 Col(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 $2,184,554.
Part II, Community Building Activities:	During the year, the Hospital performed the following activities to build up the community.1. Collaborative partnerships with community groups to improve economic stability of the community.
Part III, Line 3:	Same methodology as prior year using Compass system error rate of 40%; Explanation for Schedule H: For patients who do not turn in a signed charity care application, after 120 days of collection efforts, RSFH uses the Health Care Advisory Board's self pay compass program to automatically qualify patients for charity care through the use of an electronic scoring technique. The data received through this software is believed to err on the side of denying charity. The estimate of bad debt that could have been charity is based on the system error rate. Please note that patients who complete a full charity care application and qualify for charity under our policy are granted charity regardless of the score in the self-pay compass system.
Part III, Line 4:	Bad debts reported on Part III, Line 2 are reported at gross charges per the organization's audited financial statements.Please refer to the second footnote of the organization's audited financial statements for a description of receivables and bad debts.
Part III, Line 8:	The entire amount of Medicare shortfall qualifies as community benefit. Our treatment of Medicare patients, as described in IRS Rev. Rul. 69-545, indicates that Mt. Pleasant Hospital operates to promote the health of the community. By taking Medicare patients, the hospital promotes access to healthcare services, which is a community benefit. The organization uses the Medicare cost report to determine the costs reported on Part III, Line 5 and 6. Had we included revenues and costs from all Medicare programs including Medicare Part C , this would have resulted in an additional shortfall of $1,755,433.
Part III, Line 9b:	The hospital uses the Health Care Advisory Board's self pay compass program to identify a patient's propensity to pay. Accounts with an FPL of 350% and below will be identified once the self pay accounts receivable billing process has been completed and prior to the account being referred to a collection agency. Accounts with FPL of 350% and below will be given a charity adjustment. Once an account has been referred to bad debt, the organization will make every effort to ensure that all self-pay collectors demonstrate consistent, compassionate, and professional service while conducting business on behalf of the health system. This will include, but is not limited to: guarantor notification and contact/collection attempts, discount opportunities, payment plan arrangements, account balance notifications, face to face meetings, and detailed bill generation. An outsourced self-pay billing agency will contact the guarantor to set up payment arrangements. Financial assistance discounts are offered to guarantors who meet the charity guidelines.Self pay patients receive a 35% discount off total charges. They are also eligible for a 10% prompt payment discount if they pay the balance during the discussion. Discounts may be combined if all requirements are met.

Part VI, Line 2:	Roper St. Francis Healthcare identified community health needs by undergoing an assessment process in 2013 that complies with IRS Section 501(r). The Needs Assessment is posted on our website: www.rsfh.com/About_Us/Mission_and_Community_Activities/Needs_ Assessment.aspx and we invite the community to review and respond to this document so that our collaborative efforts can make living in our community more enjoyable and healthier.As allowed by IRS guidelines, Roper St. Francis Healthcare decided to produce a joint CHNA report in collaboration with its three Charleston area hospitals as those facilities define their communities to be the same. Each hospital files a Schedule H and has a customized implementation plan attached.The community needs assessment process consists of 5 steps: data assessment, community input, prioritization and implementation strategy, reporting, and monitoring. In the data assessment step, service areas were defined, external data research was completed and key findings were summarized. Interviews were conducted with persons with special knowledge of public health, hospital personnel, local organizations, and community outreach advocates. Our service area for this assessment is defined as the Tri-County area of Charleston, Berkeley, and Dorchester Counties. We used the following sources in the data assessment process: Nielson Claritas, 2012 County Health Rankings, Health Indicators Warehouse, The Advisory Board Company, Kids Count Data Center, Truven Health Analytics, and the USDA. Data from these sources was used to identify at-risk populations, underserved populations, health need areas, and professional shortage areas. See the answer to Schedule H, Part VI, question 4 for a description of the community served.Subsequent to the data assessment step, the Community Needs Assessment Team entered into dialogue with key hospital administrators, physicians, those with knowledge/expertise in public health, and those serving underserved and chronic disease populations. During the community input phase, the team conducted face-to-face interviews, phone interviews, and surveys in which respondents were able to comment and discuss general community health issues of their specific service area. Through these numerous interviews and surveys, a summary of community input was created. This summary would eventually be used to help focus in on priorities and ultimately, implementation strategies. Respondents who participated in this phase included experts in the field of public health, hospital administration members, community outreach groups, and other local organizations. Respondents included Dana Millet, Director of DHEC Lowcountry Region, Joseph Chambers, MD; Public Health expert and consultant, Thaddeus Bell, MD; with Closing the Gap in Healthcare. Other respondents were from focus groups in the Charleston Promise Neighborhood (North Charleston), East Cooper Community Outreach (Mt. Pleasant), Neighborhood House (Charleston), and Our Lady of Mercy Outreach Center (Johns Island). Collection and analysis of results from the CHNA data assessment, survey, interviews, and focus groups provided a strong foundation for identifying health needs and service gaps. In June 2013, Roper St. Francis Healthcare held multiple sessions with leading stakeholders to assess initial findings and establish priorities. These various constituents included representatives from the Medical University of South Carolinas strategic planning team, leadership of Trident United Way's Health Council and 2-1-1 program, experts from Joseph P. Riley Jr. Center for Livable Communities at the College of Charleston, and public health consultants. Twelve priority areas of need emerged for the Tri-County service area. As part of the prioritization process, Roper St. Francis Healthcare conducted an inventory of existing system-based outreach programs, community partnerships, and other collaborative resources that currently address each of the priority areas:1)Access to Services for Uninsured and Underinsured: Access Health Tri-county Network; RSF Financial Assistance Policy and Patient Financial Services staff to assist; partnerships with Free Clinics such as Barrier Island Free Medical Clinic, Our Lady of Mercy Outreach and Crisis Ministries; new RSF Mt. Pleasant Hospital and Physician Partners network development.2)Obesity, Nutrition, and Activity: RSF Bariatric & Metabolic Services; Diabetes Treatment Center; Cardiac Rehabilitation Centers and related programs; Lowcountry Senior Center programs; Families for Healthy Heart program; Employee "Wellness Works" program with coaching available; partnering with community groups such as City of Charleston's "Lighten Up Charleston and "Closing the Gap in Healthcare; farmers markets at hospitals.3)Mental Health: "Highway to Hope" program with mobile van/partnership with mental health departments; Behavioral Health Unit; case management/assessment through Emergency Departments.4)Alcohol and Drug Abuse: Community investment support for community programs; addressed through Behavioral Health Unit and Physician Partners practices.5)Breast Center/Mammography: Breast Cancer Center at Roper Hospital; RSF Cancer Center; "Ladies Night Out" community outreach programs.6)Maternal and Child Healthcare/Infant Mortality: Prenatal Care programs throughout system; special focus on prenatal care and treatment through RSF Mt. Pleasant and Bon Secours St. Francis hospitals specifically, with outreach to rural communities; support and partnership with Our Lady of Mercy Outreach, Franklin C. Fetter Clinic and others.7)Prevention/Wellness/Outreach: Employee "Wellness Works" program with coaching available; Families for Healthy Heart program; Community Screenings and health fairs; partnerships and support for community wellness and prevention programs.8)High Prevalence of Chronic Disease: Heart and Vascular treatments and programs; development of Palliative Care program; Cancer Center outreach and support programs.9)Lack of Transportation: ITN (Independent Transportation Network), volunteers giving rides for medical appointments; support for CARTA public transportation and use of taxis throughout system when needed; development of Physician Partners network for closer proximity of population areas.10)Low Healthcare Literacy and Distrust Among Those with Limited Access: Health Literacy training through Professional Development; Case Management and Nursing focus on discharge planning and instructions; "Closing the Gap in Healthcare" public education programs.11)Coordination of Care Across Settings: "Transitions of Care" process throughout RSF; new grant through Duke Endowment for this; Case Management model for Access Health Tri-County Network; RSF Home Health, Palliative Care program and new Hospice program.12)Cultural Awareness and Effective Programs: Professional Development programs for cultural competencies; development of Diversity program and educational efforts; support for "Closing the Gap in Healthcare" program; Mandatory on-line program for employees.After examining the range of services currently available, the expertise, outreach, and capacity of the RSFH system, and the resources available to best address needs through other community organizations, Roper St. Francis Healthcare senior leadership chose the following 6 issues as priorities to implement for its current CHNA: Access to Services and Coverage for the Uninsured and Underserved, Mental Health, Maternal and Child Health, Prevention/Wellness/Outreach, High Prevalence of Chronic Disease, and Coordination of Care Across Settings.For the needs identified through the CHNA that did not emerge as strategic priority areas of need (Obesity, Nutrition and Activity; Alcohol and Drug Abuse; Breast Cancer/Mammography; Lack of Transportation; Low Healthcare Literacy and Distrust Among Those with Limited Access; Cultural Awareness and Effective Programs), Roper St. Francis Healthcare will continue to provide the support and services as listed in the inventory of community outreach and services to address these issues.The Roper St. Francis Community Needs Assessment Team developed implementation strategies for each health issue identified as a strategic priority. This implementation plan (attached) will be rolled out over the next 3 years. Strategies are be clearly defined with a matrix of which areas each RSFH hospital will address. Some strategies may be addressed by more than one RSFH hospital or the system as a whole. The team will develop a monitoring method to provide status and results of these efforts to improve community health. RSFH is committed to conducting another health needs assessment in three years.The Community Health Needs Assessment for fiscal December 31, 2013 was approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on October 12, 2013.
Part VI, Line 3:	The Hospital shall send anyone who requests information on the hospital's financial assistance program a letter outlining required information and a financial assistance application form. Requests for financial assistance may be proposed by sources other than the patient, such as the patient's physician, family members, social service organizations, community or religious groups, or hospital personnel. Statements to patients from the Hospital outline our charity care policy and our charity care policy is posted on our website. If patients indicate they are not able to pay their bill, we will provide the patient with a charity care application.Patients can also meet with a member or our financial counseling department to learn about their financial assistance options. Brochures are printed in English and Spanish telling patients to contact the financial counseling department. The Hospital wants its patients focus to be on health and recovery and not financial worry. There is absolutely no additional cost for our financial counseling assistance.Additionally, patients can meet with staff of the Medicaid program. The program staff will meet with patients individually to help them apply for publicly supported programs such as Medicaid, Medicare, and disability. Counselors meet with patients in the hospital as well as making home visits as appropriate. The staff can also help identify resources to help pay for medication. All of this information is posted on our website with the appropriate contact information.
Part VI, Line 4:	The System's primary service area consist of Charleston, Berkeley, and Dorchester counties, and includes the major municipalities of Charleston, North Charleston, Mount Pleasant, and Summerville. Approximately 716,000 residents live within the primary service area, based on Esri estimates for 2015. According to Esri's forecasts, population in the primary service area is projected to grow 9.3% between 2015 and 2020. The 2015 - 2020 population growth rate is projected to be 1.8% annually compared to 1.44% for the period 2010 - 2015.In 2015, 13% of households within the primary service area had income less than $15K, 10% had income between $15K and $25K, 25% had income between $25K and $50K, 20% between $50K and $75K, 12% between $75K and $100K, and 20% above $100K. Within the primary service area, poverty continues to be an issue. According to the US Census Bureau's 2013 Small Area Health Insurance Estimates (SAHIE), an estimated 111,194 Tri-county residents lack health insurance. There is a vast overrepresentation of the uninsured living at or below the Federal Poverty Level. The US Department of Health and Human Services designated 6 medically underserved areas and 1 medically underserved population within our primary service area. From December 2014 to December 2015, the unemployment rate in the primary service area increased from 5.4% to 5.5%. This is a higher unemployment rate than the national average, which was 5.6% in December 2014 declining to 5.0% in December 2015. The secondary service area includes Colleton, Orangeburg, Georgetown, Hampton, Beaufort, Williamsburg, and Horry counties. In addition to the system's facilities, there are four other non-military hospitals in the primary service area.
Part VI, Line 5:	We are the lowcountry's only non-governmental, not-for-profit healthcare system.

Part I, Line 6	Goals are developed each year to support the organization's strategic initiatives for people, quality, financial, growth and service. The Ad Hoc Compensation Committee approves the system goals annually and reports to the full Board of Directors. Progress on each metric is reported to the board each month on the corporate scorecard. At year end, the Ad Hoc Compensation Committee approves the final scorecard number and reports results to the full board. Annual incentives for the executives are based on 60% on the corporate scorecard and 40% on individual performance. Executives maintain an individual scorecard on the leader evaluation manager and discuss results monthly with the President/CEO. The President/CEO approves the individual executive scorecard. System Vice Presidents and the system CEO are eligible to participate in a long term incentive plan (LTIP). An LTIP typically takes place over a three year period and does not vest until the end of the third year. To receive payment, executives must still be employed by the system at the end of the plan period. Each LTIP has a financial and clinical objective that is aligned with the organization's strategic goals. Threshold, target, and maximum performance ranges are established for these objectives and are measured based on performance against similar organizations or compared to an internal metric such as an improvement over prior performance. These targets and objectives are approved by the Ad Hoc Compensation Committee. The incentive is earned based on the satisfaction of the threshold, target, or maximum performance ranges. The Ad Hoc Compensation Committee also approves the final LTIP performance score and the amount paid to executives under the plan. Results are reported to the full board annually.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7b	The following actions shall require the unanimous affirmative approval of all of the founding members: (a) to amend the Articles of Incorporation or by-laws, including without limitation, any change in the corporation's purposes; provided, however, that, subject to the procedures and voting requirements with respect to the admission of non-founding members, Schedule 3.1 may be amended with the approval of two (2) of the founding members to reflect the admission of a non-founding member; (b) to dissolve or liquidate the corporation and to determine the distribution of assets upon dissolution; (c) to merge or consolidate the corporation or to sell, convey, transfer, lease, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; (d) to appoint the President and Chief Executive Officer of the corporation in a manner other than that established within the by-laws; (e) to alter or amend the corporation's ethical performance standards (defined below); or (f) to enter into any material agreement whereby a third party will: (i) become an equity owner in any joint venture with the corporation or any system participant and will not be legally obligated to support the corporation's ethical performance standards; or (ii) manage a substantial part of the facilities, assets, or operations of the system and will not be legally obligated to comply with and support the corporation's ethical performance standards.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11	The 2015 Form 990 was prepared by an independent accounting firm with assistance and oversight by management. Reviews were then conducted by senior management before drafts were sent to each member of the organization's governing body. A transmittal letter accompanied the drafts and provided highlights of the Form 990 to the organization's Board of Directors. After the governing body approved the Form 990 draft, a final version was filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c	The directors shall complete and return to the secretary an annual statement that each: (a) has received a copy of the conflict of interest policy; (b) has read and understands the policy; (c) agrees to comply with this policy; (d) understands that the policy applies to all committees; and (e) understands that the organization is a charitable organization and must continuously engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15	An independent company, Towers Watson, provides research, advice and guidance to the compensation committee and senior leadership to ensure the organization's compensation programs for executives covered by the "Intermediate Sanctions Legislation" (IRC Section 4958) are aligned with its stated philosophy: Base salaries are targeted at the 50th percentile of the established comparator market; Total cash compensation (base salary plus annual incentive payments) are targeted at the 75th percentile of the established comparator market; Total direct compensation (total cash compensation plus long term incentive payments) will not exceed the 90th percentile of the established comparator market; Benefits are targeted at market median; and In aggregate, base salary, total cash compensation, total direct compensation and benefits comprise total compensation for executives. The compensation committee ensures that executive total compensation is reflective of the organization's stated compensation philosophy. The committee, in this process, authorizes and supports an annual three step process utilizing Towers Watson's resources: 1) Salary levels, annual bonus targets/payments and long term incentive grants are compared rigorously each year with market data based on comparable positions and organizations. A. Comparable organizations are typically not-for-profit healthcare systems with similar operating revenues. Private sector employer data, when available, are also included in the analysis for "transferable skills positions". B. Historically, performance incentive payouts generally track with a normal bonus payout distribution. Incentive goals are primarily based on formally defined quantitative goals approved by the ad hoc Compensation Committee of the RSFH Board of Directors. 2) All recommended pay decisions are tested against these data and the organization's stated compensation philosophy. 3) A formal opinion letter is prepared by Towers Watson, representing that senior executives are compensated within the reasonableness standards mandated by the IRS. A similar process is performed by Towers Watson for the CEO and CFO positions. This letter provides a "safe harbor" for the organization's "directors" relative to the reasonableness of total executive compensation consistent with IRC Section 4958.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 18	Photocopies of the Form 990 are available upon request at the organization's administrative office. In addition, recent filings of the Form 990 are available online at www.guidestar.org.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19	The organization's audited financial statements are published annually and are available to the public at www.dacbond.com.
Form 990, Part IX, Line 1, Grants and Assistance:	The majority of the grants expense shown on page 10 of the 990 is an allocation from the parent company, CareAlliance Health Services. All grants meeting disclosure requirements have been listed on CareAlliance Health Service's Form 990.
Form 990, Part XI, line 9:	Pension and benefit expense allocation from CAHS -41,091.
Form 990, Part XII, Line 2C:	The process has not changed from the prior year.
Form 990, Part VII, Line 1:	The following board members were compensated for services performed for the organization (or a related organization) not in the capacity of their positions on the board.

Form 990, Part III:	Creating Life Changing Moments in our Community The Roper St. Francis 2015 Community Benefit Report Dear Community, The Roper St. Francis healthcare system has experienced unprecedented growth in recent years while maintaining our mission of Healing all people with compassion, faith, and excellence. Roper St. Francis has a long tradition of caring for our community. This is illustrated by our physicians and teammates' exceptional dedication, our partnerships with local leaders such as Boeing and our investment in new life-saving procedures. We maintain the highest technology levels, including HARBOR, our system's integration to all electronic medical records. As much as we are investing in growing our services and reach, we are also compelled to give back to the community we serve. In 2015, I am proud that as a system we gave 90,589 staff hours and over $56 million in Community Benefits. This benefit occurred in many forms, including charity care, sponsorships and numerous community outreach programs, which are outlined in the community benefit report. In turn our community also helps support us. The Roper St. Francis Foundation raised $9.8 million in 2015. The Foundation's philanthropy has supported a large number of projects including the Center for Spinal Cord Injury, the Roper St. Francis Nursing Scholarship program and the Roper Hospital Cardiac Wellness and Rehabilitation program. We also continue to focus on ways to recruit a more diverse workforce. Most recently our board formed a subcommittee dedicated to diversity, which resulted in a recommendation to create a new leadership position, VP Chief Diversity Officer, who reports directly to the CEO. I would like to thank each and every teammate, physician, volunteer, donor and board member who has contributed to the ongoing success of our system. I hope you enjoy learning about the many ways Roper St. Francis cares for our community in the community benefit report. Warm Regards, Brian G. Cuddy, MD Chair, Board of Directors Roper St. Francis
