        <Explanation>BAD DEBT EXPENSE OF $3,893,602 WAS INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT WAS SUBTRACTED FROM TOTAL EXPENSE FOR THE CALCULATION OF "PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE" IN THIS COLUMN. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOOTNOTE ON BAD DEBT EXPENSE PART III, QUESTION 4 PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE: THE HOSPITAL REPORTS PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FOR SERVICES RENDERED AT NET REALIZABLE AMOUNTS FROM THIRD-PARTY PAYERS, PATIENTS, AND OTHERS. THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS BASED UPON A REVIEW OF OUTSTANDING RECEIVABLES, HISTORICAL COLLECTION INFORMATION AND EXISTING ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. AS A SERVICE TO THE PATIENT, THE HOSPITAL BILLS THIRD-PARTY PAYERS DIRECTLY AND BILLS THE PATIENT WHEN THE PATIENT'S LIABILITY IS DETERMINED. PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE DUE IN FULL WHEN BILLED. ACCOUNTS ARE CONSIDERED DELINQUENT AND SUBSEQUENTLY WRITTEN OFF AS BAD DEBTS BASED ON INDIVIDUAL CREDIT EVALUATION AND SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE ACCOUNT. THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED WAS RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES. THE HOSPITAL SERVES A LARGE AREA THAT INCLUDES SOME OF THE LOWEST INCOME PER CAPITA COUNTIES IN THE UNITED STATES. A RELATIVELY SMALL NUMBER OF PATIENTS DO NOT QUALIFY FOR GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS AS WELL AS BEING UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED. IF THE PATIENTS DO NOT QUALIFY FOR CHARITY UNDER HOSPITAL POLICY CRITERIA THEN THE ACCOUNT IS WRITTEN OFF AS A BAD DEBT.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>The needs described and defined in the Assessment are too pervasive for any single hospital to address on its own due to limited resources. These needs include barriers to healthcare access; cultural influences on diabetes and obesity; poverty and poor education among others. Limited resources prevented a comprehensive plan from being developed. Expanding the Assessment stakeholders (such as including County Health Officers) will provide a better opportunity for a comphensive plan to address this area's health needs.</Explanation>
