        <ExplanationTxt>For uninsured patients that do not qualify for charity care, CMCI recognizes revenue on the basis of its standard rates for services provided. On the basis of historical experience, a significant portion of CMCI's uninsured patients will be unable or unwilling to pay for the services provided. Thus, CMCI records a significant provision for bad debts related to uninsured patients in the period the services are provided.Part III, Line 2Bad debts at cost were determined by utilizing departmental cost-to-charge ratios for bad debts in areas that are reported as subsidized health services. An overall cost-to-charge ratio derived from Worksheet 2 was used to determine the cost of bad debts in all other areas.Part III, Line 3Bad debt provisions attributable to patients eligible under the organization's financial assistance policy were determined using an estimated 86.9% of total bad debts. The Medical Center takes steps to assist individuals who are believed to qualify for financial assistance prior to writing accounts off as uncollectible. The Medical Center considers $521,352 of bad debt cost as community benefit. As a tax-exempt hospital, we must provide necessary services regardless of the patient's ability to pay for that care. Making quality patient care available to all in our community, regardless of their economic means, qualfies bad debts as a community benefit.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Medicare allowable costs were determined by using amounts from the Medical Center's Medicare cost report. The Medicare cost report apportions actual costs to the Medicare program using charges for ancillary services and patient days for nursing services. The Medical Center believes that all of the $76,968 Medicare shortfall should be considered as community benefit. The IRS Community Benefit Standard includes the provision of care to the elderly and Medicare patients. Medicare shortfalls must be absorbed by the Hospital in order to continue treating the elderly in our community. The Medical Center provides care regardless of this shortfall and thereby relieves the federal government of the burden of paying the full cost for Medicare beneficiaries.</ExplanationTxt>
