DescCharity Care:The Hospital's charity care program is designed to assist those patients who are either uninsured, underinsured or have limited financial resources that impact their ability to fully pay for their hospital care. Before completing an application for charity care, patients are first asked to investigate whether or not they may be eligible for Medicare, Medicaid, Veteran's Benefits or other governmental or public assistance programs. The Hospital's qualifications for charity care are as follows:1) Charity care is limited to medically necessary services. Patients receiving certain elective services, such as those considered cosmetic, investigational or experimental, are expected to make payment arrangements in advance, as these types of services are not covered by the charity care program.2) Patient's family income must be at or below 300% of the current Federal Poverty Income Guidelines for their applicable family size.The Hospital maintains records to identify and monitor the level of charity care it provides. These records include the amount of charges foregone for services and supplies furnished under its charity care policy, the estimated cost of those services and supplies and equivalent service statistics. The following information measures the levels of the charity care provided during the year ended September 30, 2014:Equivalent percentage of charity care services to all services 1.85%Number of patients receiving charity care 5,708In addition, the Hospital also incurred payment shortfalls in the treatment of Medicare and Medicaid patients. Both of these government programs reimburse for medical services at less than published charges to provide those services. In 2014, the Hospital incurred shortfalls of approximately $8,653,945 and $6,296,865 related to treating Medicare and Medicaid patients, respectively.The Hospital also provided many other community benefits upon which no monetary value can be placed such as:-BMH provides space at no cost to the local non-profit Brattleboro Walk-in Clinic.-Promotes wellness through screening and demonstrations at our annual Health Fair.-Offers free smoking cessation classes.-Collaborates with other community agencies in publishing a community wellnes calenday twice a year.Desc

Part I, Line 3c:Brattleboro Memorial Hospital's Free Care program is designed to assist those patients who are either uninsured, underinsured or have limited financial resources that impact their ability to fully pay for their hospital care. When making application for Free Care, patients are first asked to investigate whether or not they may be eligible for Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans' Benefits or other governmental or public assistance programs. Free Care should always be the payor of last resort.A. Qualifications for Free Care:1. Free Care is limited to medically necessary services. Patients receiving certain elective services, such as those considered cosmetic, investigational or experimental, are expected to make payment arrangements in advance, as these types of services are not covered by Free Care;2. Patients' family income must be at or below 250% of the current Federal Poverty Income Guidelines for their family size;3. Patients or their guarantors must complete a Free Care application and provide the hospital with verification of income. Responsible parties may be asked to disclose the identity and amounts of any assets that could be used to pay for medical expenses.NOTE: Income verification may be waived at the discretion of the Director of Patient Financial Services, particularly in those instances in which patients have subsequently qualified for Medicaid, or are deceased, with no estate;4. Free Care applications will be processed within two weeks of the date of their receipt in our Business Office;5. Free Care applies only to those patient accounts still in active Accounts Receivable; no Free Care allowance may be applied against accounts that have been forwarded to a collection agency as Bad Debt.B.
