WPAHS, Inc. Inclusion In The Consolidated Audit of WPAHS	Form 990, Schedule D, Part X Question 2, Part XII and XIII	West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. does not receive its own independent audit. It is a member of a regional healthcare system named West Penn Allegheny Health System. West Penn Allegheny Health System receives a consolidated audit that includes the operations of West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. The following analysis represents the reconciliation between the financial statement net income and the net income as reported on Form 990, Page 1, line 19: Net income per financial statements ($221,921,536) Add: Impairment Loss reflected in unrestricted income on the financial statements and reclassified to net assets on Form 990 214,699,000 Plus: Income and expense reclassified from restricted net assets on the financial statements to unrestricted income and expense on Form 990 8,867,193 Add: Unrealized losses reflected in unrestricted income on the financial statements and reclassified to net assets on Form 990 1,293,072 ___________ Net income per Form 990 $2,937,729 The following is the footnote to the audited consolidated financial statements of the West Penn Allegheny Health System for FASB ASC 740: WPAHS adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. FASB ASC 740 prescribes a more-likely than-not recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken. Under FASB ASC 740, tax positions will be evaluated for recognition, derecognition, and measurement using consistent criteria and will provide more information about the uncertainty in income tax assets and liabilities. Based on an analysis prepared by WPAHS, it was determined that the application of FASB ASC 740 had no material effect on the recorded assets and liabilities of WPAHS.

IdentifierIdentifier	Return ReferenceReturnReference	ExplanationExplanation
Bad Debt Expense Financial Statement Footnote and Costing Methodology	Schedule H, Part III, Question 4	West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. does not issue separate audited financial statements and therefore a footnote does not exist. Bad debt expense is accounted for on a charge basis in our internal financial statements. A cost to charge ratio is applied to the internal figures to convert the charge to cost. It is the opinion of West Penn Allegheny Health System management that because patients are often reluctant to complete the required charity care paperwork that an unquantifiable amount of charity care results in bad debt. Thus, it is our opinion that bad debt expense can be considered a justifiable componet of charity care.
Collection Practices For Patients Who Qualify For Financial Assistance	Schedule H, Part III, Question 9b	Patients that qualify for charity care or financial assistance are provided with an approval letter with the effective dates for the assistance. At any time the individual presents for services within a 90 day span of approval, they show the letter and will be registered as a charity care case. Charity care cases are designated in the internal computerized systems with unique plan codes that prevent billing to the patient. Reports are run to capture the patient accounts registered with the charity care plan codes so they can be written off to charity care.
Addressing The Needs Identified In The CHNA	Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 7	Some needs identified in the most recently conducted Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) are not addressed by implementation strategy programs because existing hospital and community resources work to address these needs. West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. evaluated all top priority needs and put forth plans to address the needs we felt we were best positioned to make a positive impact for the betterment of the health of the communities we serve. Various needs outlined in the CHNA will not be addressed through these planning efforts. These needs will not be addressed as a result of prioritization efforts, which included individuals with expertise in public health and representatives of underserved populations, the need was ranked low for any one or more of the following reasons: 1) the hospital was not identified as the accountable entity; 2) the need falls outside of the hospital area of expertise; 3) the issue is already being addressed by existing community assets; or 4) necessary internal resources to meet the need are lacking.
Charges For Medical Care	Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 20d	West Penn Allegheny Health System offers uninsured patients a fifty percent (50%) discount on total gross charges to all hospital charges. The intent of the discount is to standardize charging practices for covered and non covered patients. The discount is offered during patient contact for elective/ urgent (non cosmetic) procedures during the financial counseling process, as well as during the patient statement cycle process for services provided (including Emergency services.) Patient statements are clearly marked with the uninsured discount, reducing the "amount owed" of the gross charges. An uninsured discount of 50% is applied to the patient account either at the time of payment or prior to transferring the account to bad debt upon conclusion of the routine four statement cycle, for any unpaid balances. This methodology is applied consistently among the three Hospitals of West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc.
Charges Equal To Gross Charges For Patient Services	Schedule H, Part V, Line 21 and Line 22	Each facility offers a variety of procedures. For elective and non medically emergent procedures not covered by health plans, individual fee schedules are published and communicated prior to services. Patients are contacted in advance of the procedure by financial counselors and are required to pay for services in full based on the fee schedule. The patient is required to pay the hospital fee schedule for the technical component and the physician for the professional services rendered. This methodology is applied consistently among the three Hospitals of West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc.
Health Needs Assessment	Schedule H, Part VI, Line 2	West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. management and staff utilize multiple strategies to continually monitor and assess the health care needs of the communities it serves. One approach to assessing needs involves surveying community members about health needs related to national and state health goals. West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. also acts on expressed community needs by responding to direct community requests for health screenings, outreach events and other health-related activities and by maintaining longstanding programs that are well attended and positively evaluated by community participants. In addition, West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. gathers community input through participation in area rotaries, chambers of commerce, through partnerships with community organizations and other community engagement activities. Another means is through reviewing and taking appropriate actions on feedback gathered from the following sources: routine market assessments; patient and family satisfaction surveys; Press Ganey surveys; patient, patient family and staffs' suggestions for improving patient safety; medical staff input and physician surveys. In addition to the ongoing community health monitoring and assessment, West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. has completed a formal community health needs assessment (CHNA) for each Hospital for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. This assessment was done separately for each hospital. Each Hospital had a CHNA steering committee assigned that consisted of: community leaders, individuals with expertise in public health, hospital board members, physicians and internal hospital leaders and managers. The steering committees met between July 2012 and April 2013 to provide guidance on various components of the CHNA. The CHNA involved systematically analyzing demographic and other health-related data, considering local, state and national health goals, and understanding existing community health resources and programs. The West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. - Allegheny General Hospital (WPAHS, Inc. - AGH) addressed the following community health needs: heart disease and high blood pressure, diabetes, breast, lung and colon cancers. Early screening is incorporated into all implementation strategy programs and WPAHS, Inc.- AGH engages in early screening through existing community outreach and health screening efforts. The areas of mental health service access and flu and pneumonia were not addressed by implementation strategy programs because existing hospital and community resources work to address these needs. WPAHS, Inc. - AGH evaluated all top priority needs and put forth plans to address the needs we felt we were best positioned to make a positive impact for the betterment of the health of the communities we serve. The West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. - Western Pennsylvania Hospital (WPAHS, Inc. - WPH) addressed the following community health needs: cardiovascular disease, diabetes and breast cancer. Early screening is incorporated into all implementation strategy programs and WPAHS, Inc.- WPH engages in early screening through existing community outreach and health screening efforts.

The West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. - Forbes Regional Hospital (WPAHS, Inc. - FRH) addressed the community health need of diabetes. Early screening is incorporated into the implementation strategy program and WPAHS, Inc.- FRH engages in early screening through existing community outreach and health screening efforts. The areas of mental health services, flu and pneumonia, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, obesity, breast cancer and bronchus/ lung cancer were not addressed by implementation strategy programs because existing hospital and community resources work to address these needs. WPAHS, Inc. - FRH evaluated all top priority needs and put forth plans to address the needs we felt we were best positioned to make a positive impact for the betterment of the health of the communities we serve. The WPAHS, Inc. board of directors approved and implemented the CHNA plans on October 31, 2013. All WPAHS, Inc. Community Health Needs Assessments can be viewed at: www.wpahs.org.

Investment of Tax Exempt Bonds Beyond A Temporary Period Exception	Form 990, Page 4, Part IV, Line 24b	On June 19, 2007 the System's Series 2007 Project Fund was funded with proceeds from a tax-exempt bond issue. The President and Chief Executive Officer of the System resigned shortly thereafter. Since that time, the System has recognized four different individuals as President and Chief Executive Officer. Because of this turnover in the leadership of the System a delay was experienced in the capital spending until each new president and chief executive officer began to implement the capital spending which he or she deemed to be necessary. This delay caused the Series 2007A Project Fund to be spent down in a time period extending beyond the temporary period exemption. These proceeds have been spent down completely as of June 30, 2013.
