Developed by the ANCC in 1994, the Magnet designation is the American Nurses Association's highest honor for excellence in nursing and recognizes both hospitals as national leaders in nursing education, research, patient satisfaction, quality care, job retention and the central role of nursing in the organization. Magnet designation is for a period of four years, at which time an organization must reapply. The reapplication process is intense, necessitating that hospitals demonstrate increasingly higher standards than previous applications. In 2006 and 2011, LVHN hospitals were redesignated as Magnet hospitals, continuing to demonstrate the required evidence of a practice environment in which professional nurses and interdisciplinary colleagues deliver the highest standards of quality care. Evidence associated with designation for a fourth time was submitted April 1, 2015, earning LVH and LVH-Muhlenberg a January 4 - 7, 2016 site visit to verify, clarify and amplify the written evidence. In October, 2013, Lehigh Valley Health Network was honored with the prestigious Magnet Prize for innovations in telehealth. The Magnet Prize recognizes innovative nursing programs and practices in ANCC Magnet-designated organizations. The $25,000 purse is being used to continue, advance, and disseminate the winning innovation.Desc

Part V, Line 4:The endowment funds are used for continuing education, scholarships, research, clinical equipment, and nursing awards.
Part X, Line 2:In 2008, the Organization adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 has become part of ASC 740. FIN 48/ASC 740 establishes that the financial statement effects of a tax position taken or expected to be taken are to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon IRS examination. FIN 48 became effective for fiscal year 2008 for the Organization. The Organization has analyzed tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years for the taxable entities and has determined that as of June 30, 2015, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition in the financial statements. The Organization has analyzed specific criteria regarding the exempt 501(c) 3 status for the tax exempt entities and has determined that as of June 30, 2015 the Organization is compliant with the qualifications for exemption from Federal income tax.

Lehigh Valley Hospital - MuhlenbergPart V, Section B, Line 5: The Council's community needs assessment focused on the health status of the Lehigh Valley (Lehigh and Northampton Counties). The CHNA approach incorporated best practice standards as recommended by the American Public Health Association and the Association for Community Health Improvement of the American Hospital Association. The Council employed several health assessment techniques that used both qualitative and quantitative data. The assessment began by using existing community health measures from, but not limited to, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), US Census Bureau, Dartmouth Atlas of Healthcare, Pennsylvania's Department of Health, and the University of Wisconsin's County Health Rankings. Community input was elicited through health opinion surveys, social reconnaissance with 84 key community members, and interviews with leading health experts. Findings from these efforts comprised a community health profile.Community dialogues were conducted using a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) approach in two federally-designated medically underserved areas. The dialogues were facilitated by a national expert in CBPR in four 3-hour sessions with 170 community members in attendance. The findings from the Community Health Profile were discussed at length. These findings were strongly corroborated by the community members and stakeholders, who listed mental health, oral health, health disparities, racism, poverty, unhealthy lifestyles, poor education, and limited access to care as major barriers to health.
Lehigh Valley Hospital - MuhlenbergPart V, Section B, Line 6a: The Health Care Council of the Lehigh Valley includes representation from Lehigh Valley Health Network, Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Network, Sacred Heart HealthCare System, Saint Luke's University Hospital and Health Network, KidsPeace Psychiatric Hospital, and The Dorothy Rider Pool Health Care Trust.
Lehigh Valley Hospital - MuhlenbergPart V, Section B, Line 7d: The Community Health Needs Assessment was mailed to key community leaders and was provided press coverage in the community newapaper and local television station.
Lehigh Valley Hospital - MuhlenbergPart V, Section B, Line 18d: Collection activities are limited to hospital sending four statements requesting payment. The statements include information about the hospital's Financial Assistance Policy, soliciting the patients participation in the Financial Assistance Program.
Lehigh Valley Hospital - MuhlenbergPart V, Section B, Line 22d: The hospital facility used the average of its negotiated commercial insurance rates and Medicare rates when calculating the maximum amounts that can be charged.

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part I, Line 6a:The Community Benefit Report is issued by Lehigh Valley Health Network - EIN 22-2458317, the parent company of Lehigh Valley Hospital - Muhlenberg.
Part I, Line 7:The costing methodology is cost to charge ratio for programs with gross charges and direct costs for programs without gross charges.
Part I, Line 7g:The clinics subsidy of $707,346 is the difference between the cost of services provided in the hospitalclinics and the payments received for those services. The clinics at LVH-Muhlenberg include thedental clinic that is operated in conjunction with the dental residency program, and the outpatientmental health clinic (Base Service Unit) which provides evaluation, counseling and case managementservices to residents of Lehigh and Northampton counties. The Clinics Subsidy does not include thecost of any Uncompensated Charity Care as reported above. Clinic costs do include $18,822 of thewage and benefits expense of dental residents who provided care to clinic patients.
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 $ 11,913,761.
Part III, Line 2:Patient accounts written off as bad debt are identified. The cost to provide care to these patients is calculated by multiplying the total charges written off as bad debt by the cost to charge ratio.
Part III, Line 3:This amount is the cost to provide care to uninsured patients that do not participate in the process to determine if they are eligible for financial assistance. The cost is determined using cost to charge ratios. The rationale for including the cost to provide care to uninsured patients that do not participate in the financial assistance process is the hospital's experience with uninsured patients that do participate in the financial assistance program. When the hospital evaluates uninsured patients for financial assistance, the most common finding is that uninsured patients have income less than 400% of the Federal poverty guideline and qualify for financial assistance. The hospital believes that uninsured people who choose not to participate in the financial assistance process and have their accounts written off as bad debt, have income that would qualify for the hospital financial assistance program.
Part III, Line 4:BAD DEBTS - The Organization records a provision for bad debts related to uninsured accounts net of the AGB discount to record the net self-pay accounts receivable at the estimated amounts the Organization expects to collect. Coinsurances and deductibles within the third-party payer agreements are the patient's responsibility so the Organization includes these amounts in the self-pay accounts receivable and considers these amounts in its determination of the provision for bad debts based on historical collection experience.In instances where the Organization believes a patient has the ability to pay for services and, after appropriate collection effort, payment is not made, the amount of services not paid is written-off as bad debts. Amounts recorded as Provision for bad debts do not include charity care. The Provision for bad debts for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, was $11,914,000 and $14,250,000 respectively.
Part III, Line 8:The source of the Medicare allowable costs relating to revenue received from Medicare is the FY '15 Medicare Cost Report. The revenue and expenses are both determined using Medicare principles. The hospital is providing the community a benefit in excess of Medicare payments.
Part III, Line 9b:Financial Counseling staff will determine whether patients meet eligibility criteria for financial assistance. Accounts that do not meet the eligiblilty requirements will be referred to an external receivables follow up agency, and if not paid referred to a collection agency and subsequently transferred to bad debt status if the accounts remain unpaid.
Part VI, Line 2:The Health Care Council of the Lehigh Valley (HCCLV) used quantitative and qualitative methods to identify both the major causes of death and illness, and the barriers to improving the health and well-being of community residents. The HCCLV's approach has incorporated best practice standards recommended by the American Public Health Association and the Association for Community Health Improvement. These procedures included using multiple data sources and input from stakeholders including community organizations and community members. Quantitative data were collected from The Centers for Disease Control, US Census Bureau, Dartmouth Atlas of Healthcare, Pennsylvania Department of Health's Vital Statistics and County Profiles, University of Wisconsin's County Health Rankings, National Cancer Institute State Cancer Profiles, Institute for People, community opinion surveys, and a Lehigh Valley disability survey. Qualitative data were collected using community focus groups and social reconnaissance, a process that intensely examined community dynamics with regards to health.
Part VI, Line 3:Consistent with the mission and values of Lehigh Valley Health Network, it is the policy to provide medical care to all individuals without regard to their ability to pay for services. The Financial Assistance Policy applies to uninsured and under-insured individuals who participate in the process to evaluate their ability to pay for LVHN services.Patients are identified by LVHN registration, Benefits and Verification, Customer Service, and Financial Counselors as being in financial need. The Financial Counselors help patients complete the application for Financial Assistance. LVHN follows the Federal Poverty Guidelines to evaluate eligibility. Patients whose family income falls below 200% of the Federal Poverty guideline will have their entire balance forgiven for their qualifying services at a participating LVHN provider. Patients with a family income below 400% of the Federal Poverty guidelines will have a portion of their balance forgiven for qualifying services at a participating LVHN provider. Patients are evaluated for no cost or reduced premium insurance plans. The LVHN Financial Counselors will offer information to patients who are interested in seeing if they qualify for these programs offered by commercial insurance companies.Patients often express financial concern or need by contacting the LVHN Customer Service departments. The Customer Service representatives explain the programs available; Financial Assistance and support in applying for Medical Assistance or insurance through the Federal Health Insurance Exchange. Patients will be referred to the Financial Counselors who work with patients to apply for Pennsylvania Medical Assistance. The Financial Counselors are located onsite. The Financial Counselors visit patients in their inpatient rooms, in the Cancer Center, and in the Emergency Department. In addition, LVHN advertises Financial Assistance in the local newspaper, on our public website and on the statements sent to our patients.
Part VI, Line 4:The primary service area of LVH-Muhlenberg is comprised of seventeen (17) zip codes located primarily in eastern Lehigh County and western Northampton County. Most are within a ten-mile radius of LVH-Muhlenberg Based on U.S. Census Bureau data for the year 2010 census, the population of the primary service area was approximately 413,156 people. During fiscal year 2015, approximately 80.1% of the discharges from LVH-Muhlenberg were residents of the primary service area. According to the American Community Survey (U.S. Census) the estimated population for the 17 zip code area in 2014 was 472,481.The 2010 population of the secondary service area was approximately 294,855. During fiscal year 2015, approximately 12.7% of the discharges from LVH-Muhlenberg were residents of the secondary service area. Based on U.S. Census Bureau data, the current population of the combined primary and secondary LVH-Muhlenberg service areas is projected to increase approximately 5.4% (CAGR* - .59%) by the year 2017, based on the extrapolation of the population CAGR from Census year 2000 - 2010.
Part VI, Line 5:Lehigh Valley Hospital - Muhlenberg qualifies as an Institution of Purely Public Charity in Pennsylvania. This regulation is referred to as Act 55. To be considered a purely public charity, nonprofits must: (1) advance a charitable purpose; (2) donate or render gratuitously a substantial portion of its services; (3) benefit a substantial and indefinite class of persons who are legitimate subjects of charity; (4) relieve the government of some burden; and (5) operate entirely free from private profit motive.LVHM is required to reapply for this charitable status every five years and currently qualifies through February 28, 2021.
Part VI, Line 6:Lehigh Valley Health Network's (LVHN) Community Health Improvement Plan is a set of priorities and strategies to be pursued by LVHN-CC and Muhlenberg sites. Much of the work that went into developing these priorities is embodied in a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) that was undertaken by the Health Care Council of the Lehigh Valley (HCCLV). The HCCLV is an ongoing, collaborative effort of the region's not-for-profit healthcare provider systems. This Plan outlines the steps that LVHN-CC and Muhlenberg sites will work in partnership on to address health needs for the community they serve. To the extent possible, all priorities will be addressed at each facility. However, there may be priorities that will not be addressed at each facility. This Plan includes four priority areas that address each of the top health issues in our region, particularly for the most vulnerable residents of the community. These priorities were selected by the HCCLV by considering the root causes contributing to health needs: 1) improving access to quality health care; 2) enhancing the dissemination of health information; 3) addressing social determinants of health and health disparities; and 4) promoting healthy lifestyle behaviors. Within each priority area, strategies have been identified as critical to addressing these health needs and, thereby improving the health status of our community members.
Part III, Section B. Medicare, Line 8Medicare program costs included in the annual LVHN Community Benefit Report not included or allowable in the Medicare Cost Report totaled $24,711,406. The costs of Medicare Managed Care, included in this amount is $8,730,590. The remaining $15,980,816 of costs not included in the Medicare Cost Report consists primarily of LVPG practice subsidies, Physician costs in excess of allowable amounts, non reimburseable interest expense, LVAS subsidy, and disallowable related organization costs.

The Network also expanded the scope of the Conflict of Interest or Commitment Policy, such that additional colleagues are now required to complete a questionnaire each year. Prior to January, the VP, Internal Audit and Compliance Services issued a notice to Board Members and members of the Senior Management Council when it was time for them to submit their conflict of interest questionnaires. The VP also instructed members of the Senior Management Council to identify and request completed conflict of interest questionnaires from individuals who had potential conflicts of interest and to provide her with the identity of those individuals. Compliance Services tracked completion of the questionnaires. All physicians on LVHN's medical staff are also required to complete a conflict of interest questionnaire annually.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 152015 Executive Compensation Review In compliance with the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness process outlined in the Intermediate Sanctions regulations (issued under Section 4958 of the Internal Revenue Code); Sullivan Cotter and Associates, Inc. (Sullivan Cotter) qualifies as an independent executive compensation expert, specializing in the health care industry. Sullivan Cotter provides advice to the Lehigh Valley Health Network Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees to support its attainment of the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness under the Intermediate Sanctions regulations. They also support the committee in ensuring that the LVHN executive compensation program is competitive and aligned with the organization's executive compensation philosophy. Chief Executive Officer Total Compensation Review: Program Analysis: Analyze the market position of total compensation (base salary, incentive, benefits, and perquisites) for LVHN's President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in relation to CEO market data obtained for a defined peer group of comparable health systems. This includes the preparation of tally sheets for the President and CEO as well as an analysis of Form 990 compensation data. They assess the alignment of the President and CEO's compensation with LVHN's compensation philosophy and note the implications of the review. Sullivan Cotter's analyses and findings are summarized in a report to the Committee that provides a reasonableness opinion for the Intermediate Sanctions compliance. The report was provided by Sullivan Cotter at the August 17, 2015 Executive Compensation Committee Meeting. Senior Management Council (SMC) Total Compensation Review: Program Analysis: Analyze the market position of total compensation (salaries, incentives, benefits, and perquisites) for LVHN's SMC executives and Clinical Chairs (approximately 30 total positions) in relation to comparable positions in peer organizations. This includes the preparation of tally sheets for each individual. Sullivan Cotter's analyses and findings are summarized in a report to the Committee that also provides an opinion of reasonableness for Intermediate Sanctions compliance. . The report was provided by Sullivan Cotter at the August 17, 2015 Executive Compensation Committee Meeting. Summary of Methodology To conduct this analysis, Sullivan Cotter: Collected background information regarding LVHN's operations, structure, size and scope, as well as each position's duties. Compiled market data for SMC executives consistent with the Executive Compensation Philosophy approved by the Committee during its September 16, 2014 meeting: The market data used for LVHN system executives in this assessment are an equally weighted blend of (1) a peer group of 33 not-for-profit health systems located in the Northeast region (excluding New York City) with net operating revenues between $1.0 billion and $4.3 billion (average of $1.8 billion), and (2) national data reflecting organizations of similar scope and size to LVHN. National data are used where peer group data are not available. Peer group and national market data were abstracted from Sullivan Cotter's 2014 Survey of Manager and Executive Compensation in Hospitals and Health Systems, as well as other published compensation surveys reflecting pay at comparably sized organizations, which included national hospitals and national medical groups. Sullivan Cotter notes that no market data are provided for the SVP, Medical Services as the responsibilities of that position are unique, so no benchmark data are available. They recommend that the Committee assess the compensation for that position based on internal equity considerations. Compiled market data for the LVHN clinical chairs prepared by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) for the chairs of clinical departments in medical schools, LVHN's traditional comparator group for these jobs. Adjusted the market data to an effective date of January 1, 2016 at an annualized rate of 3.0% based on salary increase trends. Compared each component of LVHN's benefit program against typical market benefit practices in health systems and hospitals based on multiple published surveys, supplemented by Sullivan Cotter's proprietary data and experience. Developed market total compensation data by combining market TCC with typical market benefit costs. Compared LVHN's TC to market rates and assessed overall positioning. For physician executives having both clinical and administrative roles, relevant market data were collected based on FTE allocation. Sullivan Cotter has not completed an assessment of the physician's productivity or the Fair Market Value (FMV) of their clinical compensation, as LVHN has advised that such amounts are appropriate and within FMV. Sullivan Cotter used the following methodology to assess the competitiveness and reasonableness of LVHN's executive total compensation levels: Collected background information regarding LVHN's operations, structure, size and scope. Collected information on each Senior Management Council (SMC) member's current compensation. Data collected include base salaries, annual incentive opportunity levels (target and Maximum), actual annual incentive payout amounts, annual costs of all standard and supplemental benefits and annual cost and description of executive perquisites. Reviewed job descriptions and organizational charts to identify each position's functional responsibilities and reporting relationships. Selected the appropriate benchmark position match for each position and applied premiums/discounts to the market data in instances where LVHN's job duties differ materially from benchmark position matches. Position matches and market adjustments were reviewed with LVHN's Senior Vice President, Human Resources and Compensation staff. LVHN's projected FY2015 net revenues and physician FTE's were used as the scope size for each entity.
