Part V, Line 4:The endowment funds are held and administered by Valley Health Systems, Inc. The intended use of the funds is to provide a predictable, stable, and consistent stream of earnings for Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. to be used for free care and general operations.
Part X, Line 2:The Medical Center is exempt from federal and state income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes within the financial statements. Tax-exempt organizations could be required to record an obligation for income taxes as a result of a tax position they have historically taken on various tax exposure items including unrelated business income or tax status. Under guidance issues by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), assets and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to not meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, based upon the technical merits of the position. Estimated interest and penalties, if applicable, related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of income tax expense. The Medical Center has evaluated the position taken on its filed tax returns. The Medical Center has concluded that no uncertain tax provisions exist at September 30, 2015. The Medical Center's tax years from 2012 through 2015 are open and subject to inspection.

Holyoke Medical Center, Inc.Part V, Section B, Line 5: Verite Healthcare Consulting met with community stakeholders, including 11 public health officials and experts; 16 individuals affiliated with Health Departments or Agencies; and various other community leaders and HMC-affiliated clinicians, administrators, and staff during a series of interviews and "listening sessions" to review and respond to preliminary findings.Additionally, HMC collaborated with organizations that participated in a "Design Team" established to develop the CHNA. Representatives from community organizations, regional government, and public health departments particiated in this Team.Finally, a community survey was conducted as a major element of the CHNA, garnering responses from 1,083 community members. Survey results were post-stratified to accurately reflect the community's demographics. Responses were also assessed by race, insurance status, and education status.
Holyoke Medical Center, Inc.Part V, Section B, Line 6a: Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. is a member of the Coalition of Western Massachusetts Hospitals, which also includes Baystate Medical Center, Baystate Mary Lane Hospital, Baystate Franklin Medical Center, Mercy Medical Center, Cooley Dickinson Hospital, and Wing Memorial Hospital. The Coalition hospitals collaborated in preparing their CHNAs. However, each Coalition hospital conducted their own separate CHNA.
Holyoke Medical Center, Inc.Part V, Section B, Line 11: Please see the attached Implementation Plan for details on how the Hospital is addressing the significant needs identified in its most recently conducted CHNA covered by this filing.Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. prioritized services based on resources and duplication of services from other community organizations. The following needs identified in HMC's most recently conducted community health needs assessment that have not been addressed and the reasons why are: 1. Dental health - lack of access to dental care: this service is being provided by the Holyoke Health Center; 2. Health behaviors - high rates of alcohol and drug use/high rates of unsafe sex, teen pregnancy, and chlamydia: these needs are being met by HMC's sister organization, River Valley Counseling Center, Inc.; 3. Maternal and child health - prevalent infant health risk factors: HMC has not discovered an avenue to capture pre-natal patients at this time; 4. Maternal and child health - pediatric disability: HMC does not offer in-house pediatric services; 5. Physical environment - poor community safety/poor built environment and environmental quality: these issues are already addressed by the Holyoke Safe Neighborhoods Initiative; 6. Social and economic factors - basic needs insecurity: financial hardship, housing, and food access: many of these issues are already addressed by the South Holyoke Safe Neighborhoods Initiative.7. Access to Care - Health system complexity along with regulatory and administrative burdens result in frustration for both patients and providers. Cost and an undersupply of healthcare providers in the HMC community are resulting in barriers to accessing primary care, mental health services, and dental care. The community has a variety of resources working to address access barriers. There are 15 Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC) and FQHC site partners located in the community. All serve medically underserved areas and populations.8. Morbidity and Mortality - The community experiences comparatively high rates of chronic disease and disease related mortality, including cancer, stroke, diseases of the circulatory system, and chronic liver disease. Racial and ethnic disparities for a variety of morbidity and mortality indicators are evident, particularly in Hampden County. Poor mental and dental health affects many in the community, particularly low-income residents, homeless residents, and children. The community also exhibits comparatively high suicide rates, particularly within the White population. Asthma and air quality are community health issues. Asthma is more prevalent in Hampden County across all age groups with Holyoke having the highest prevalence of asthma in schoolchildren.9. Mental Health - Lack of access to mental health services and poor mental health status. The Massachusetts Department of Mental Health (DMH) developed the State Mental Health Plan 2012-2014 as part of its application for a Mental Health Block Grant from the Center for Mental Health Services and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Please see the attached Implementation Plan for details on how the Hospital is addressing the significant needs identified in its most recently conducted CHNA covered by this filing.
Holyoke Medical Center, Inc.Part V, Section B, Line 16i: The Hospital has had a section on their website related to financial assistance for some time; however, the Hospital did not have an official Plain Language Summary during the fiscal year covered by this return. The Hospital did have a financial assistance policy and financial assistance application that was available to our patients along with financial assistance signs in certain locations in the Hospital (such as patient registration, and the Emergency department). While the Hospital did not have a formal plain language summary, we believe that we made a reasonable and good faith effort to provide such a document because the back of each patient statement is a plain language summary of our policy. The Hospital is diligently reviewing all policies and compliance matters to ensure it will be in complete compliance with question 501(r) as addressed with Schedule H, Part V, Lines 16a through 16i by 9/30/16 including posting the updated full policy, application, and plain language summary on the organization's website at www.holyokehealth.com/Patient_Default.aspxThis is consistent with the guidance that the final regulations under section 501(r) apply to a hospital facility's taxable years beginning after December 29, 2015.
Holyoke Medical Center, Inc.Part V, Section B, Line 22d: It is the policy of Holyoke Medical Center to charge all patients with and without insurance its standard rates on file with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Heathcare and Policy. The amount ultimately collected will vary depending on the Federal or State financial assistance program for which the patient qualifies or under the terms of the contract negotiated with the patient's insurance company. The amount ultimately collected from patients without insurance is handled on a case-by-case basis. Effective July 1, 2012, Holyoke Medical Center implemented a hospital specific financial assistance program which provides a discount to qualified patients (patients that meet certain financial requirements and do not qualify for a Federal or State program) and provides a discount consistent with Medicare.

As an example, working with three community partners, Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. staff help coordinate a children's grant to specifically assist speech and language screening and education for children and parents in the community for children with speech and hearing difficulties. Working with our partners, this program helps assist families with obtaining public school services for their children. Our ongoing involvement helps oversee budgets and assure flow to appropriate allocation of funds to those community services which will support those children and their families for speech, occupational and physical therapy, behavioral counseling, therapeutic play, hearing screenings, family literacy, and nutrition. In addition, HMC also partners with a variety of local community agencies to help oversee specific grants that have been awarded for the broader community for children with childhood developmental delays in their cognitive speech and hearing. Family support and teaching pre-school and grammar school educational programs for teachers are held to assist in minimizing the delays that these children would otherwise undergo without this service.

Part VI, Line 2:Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. conducts a needs assessment of the communities it serves in conjunction with numerous community agencies. These include the United Way of Pioneer Valley, Holyoke Health Center, Inc., our sister organizations River Valley Counseling Center, Inc. and Holyoke Visiting Nurse Association, Inc., as well as Holyoke Community College and a wide variety of education institutions in the Holyoke/ Springfield area, including the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester. Partnering with these organizations has allowed HMC to utilize our expertise and assessment of the population we serve to better formulate our community benefit initiatives. Based on the needs assessment, HMC determines which initiatives to continue and which programs to implement within our financial means. This includes a focus on community education and community outreach. It is important not to overlook the substantial contribution that the hospital makes to the community through our many educational programs, free flu shots, and our support of community events. HMC will continue to monitor these programs for their need and effectiveness in the community, and, working with our community partners, assess for gaps in the needs of the community that are not being filled. The formal needs assessment done in 2010 by the United Way of Pioneer Valley, combined with our own data and information of our patient population including what is publicly reported by the Department of Public Health - Massachusetts Community Health Information Profiles and other public sources has enabled us to focus our limited resources to better serve our community.
Part VI, Line 3:1) General Principles:Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. or its agents will assist uninsured and underinsured patients with the process of applying for available financial assistance programs that may pay for some or all of their hospital bills. In order to help uninsured and underinsured patients find and apply for available financial assistance, HMC will provide all patients with a general notice of the availability of programs by way of posted notices throughout HMC and by way of individual notices to patients. The goal of these notices is to inform patients regarding the availability of financial assistance, as well as assistance with the application process. Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. will assist patients with the application process for the following Massachusetts programs: MassHealth, Commonwealth Care, CMSP, Healthy Start, Health Safety Net, and Medical Hardship through the Health Safety Net. Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. will provide, upon request, specific information about: (a) the eligibility criteria to be a low income patient under the Massachusetts Health Safety Net program or (b) additional financial assistance programs that HMC may in its discretion make available to low income patients from time-to-time. Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. will also notify the patient about available payment plans that may be available to them pursuant to HSN regulations.2) Role of Hospital Patient Financial Counselors and Other Finance Staff:Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. will attempt to identify available coverage options for patients who may be uninsured or underinsured when the patient is scheduling services, while the patient is at HMC, upon discharge and for a reasonable time following discharge. Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. will direct all patients seeking available coverage options to HMC's Patient Financial Counseling office for eligibility screening and assistance with the application process, including the application process for financial assistance programs that HMC may in its discretion make available to low income patients from time-to-time.Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. will also provide information on how to contact the appropriate staff within the hospital's Finance Department to verify the accuracy of the hospital bill or to dispute certain charges.3) Notification Practices:Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. will post a notice (signs) of availability of financial assistance in the following locations:a. Service delivery areas (e.g., inpatient, clinic, emergency department admission and/or registration areas);b. Patient financial counselor areas;c. Central admission/registration areas; and/ord. Business office areas that are open to patients.Posted signs will be clearly visible and legible to patients visiting these areas. The hospital will also include a notice about the availability of financial assistance in all initial bills.When a patient contacts the hospital, the hospital finance staff will attempt to identify if a patient qualifies for a public financial assistance program or a payment plan. A patient who is enrolled in a public financial assistance program (e.g., MassHealth or the Health Safety Net) may qualify for certain plans. Patients may also qualify for additional assistance based on the hospital's own internal criteria for financial assistance or qualify for coverage of services as a medical hardship based on the patient's documented income and allowable medical expenses.For cases in which the hospital is using the Virtual Gateway application, the hospital will assist the patient in completing the application for MassHealth, Commonwealth Care, Children's Medical Security Plan, Health Start, Health Safety Net, or other forms of financial assistance programs as they become part of the Virtual Gateway program.All signs and notices shall be translated into languages other than English if such language is primarily spoken by 10% or more of the residents in the hospital service area, which is based on the hospital admissions and/or discharge information.
Part VI, Line 4:While the geographic boundary includes cities and towns in Hampden and Hampshire counties, our organization focuses its resources on the eight cities and towns in our primary service area: Holyoke, Chicopee, South Hadley, Granby, Easthampton, Belchertown, West Springfield, and Southampton, with a total population of about 185,000 people. Within this population are subsets of individuals with specific needs such as elderly, poor, and those who exhibit a health profile with higher-than-average morbidity.For example, statistics from the 2013 Massachusetts Department of Public Health Massachusetts Community Health Information Profile show that for the city of Holyoke, where the majority of our patients reside, indicate that:- per capita income is 61% of the state average;- Adults over 65-years-old are 103% of the state average;- AFDC Medicaid recipients are 383% of the state average;- Hispanic persons are 504% of the state average;- Births to adolescent mothers are 394% of the state average;- Asthma is 262% of the state average;- Gonorrhea is 173% of the state average;- Chlamydia is 378% of the state average;- AIDS/HIV-related deaths are 278% of the state average;- Cardiovascular disease deaths are 124% of the state average;- Alcohol and other drug related hospital discharge rate is 273% of the state average.Prioritizing the needs is an ongoing process and is dependent upon a multitude of factors such as the Mission of the organization, the scope and depth of the specific need, and available resources. As the sole acute care provider in this area, we attempt to include the needs of all residents in our decisions, without regard to demographic or health status.
Part VI, Line 5:The impact of Holyoke Medical Center, Inc.'s outreach efforts are evidenced by the fact that countless service agencies rely on HMC to ensure their own success.
