| ExplanationExplanation | IdentifierIdentifier |
|---|---|
| PART I, LINE 6A: EXCELA HEALTH PROVIDES A REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY PERIODICALLY. THE REPORT IS PUBLISHED ON THE WEBSITE AS WELL AS PROVIDED THROUGH COMMUNITY MAILINGS AND LOCATED AT STRATEGIC POINTS OF SERVICE WITHIN OUR HOSPITALS SUCH AS THE EMERGENCY ROOM, ADMISSIONS, REGISTRATION, ETC. | |
| PART I, LINE 7: THE PERCENT OF CHARITY CARE AND OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS IS BASED ON RATIOS OF COST TO CHARGES FROM THE COST REPORT. | |
| PART I, LINE 7G: EXCELA HEALTH OFFERS A NUMBER OF CLINICS TO THE COMMUNITY SUCH AS DIABETIC, PAIN, WOUND, WELLNESS, ETC. IN ADDITION TO THESE CLINICS, WE OFFER BOTH INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES. | |
| PART I, L7 COL(F): THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE AND EXPENSES OF NON-HOSPITAL ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS 24,698,321. | |
| PART III, LINE 4: THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IS BASED UPON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE COVERAGE, AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. PERIODICALLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, MANAGEMENT ASSESSES THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTABLE ACCOUNTS BASED UPON HISTORICAL WRITE-OFF EXPERIENCE BY PAYOR. THE RESULTS OF THIS REVIEW ARE THEN USED TO MAKE MODIFICATIONS TO THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS TO ESTABLISH AN APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTABLE ACCOUNTS. | |
| PART III, LINE 8: MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS ARE CALCULATED USING A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO. MEDICARE MANAGED CARE COSTS ARE CALCULATED USING THE COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM.EXCELA HEALTH PROVIDES SERVICES BELOW COST FOR PARTICIPANTS ENROLLED IN MEDICARE MANAGED CARE AND TRADITIONAL MEDICARE PROGRAMS. THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL REPORTED ON LINE 7 IS DUE TO CONTINUED CUTS IN MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT WHILE EXCELA HEALTH CONTINUES TO INVEST IN STATE OF THE ART EQUIPMENT AND FACILITIES TO MEET THE CONTINUALLY CHANGING HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY. | |
| PART III, LINE 9B: PATIENTS WITH NO INSURANCE ARE GIVEN A PACKET UPON ADMISSION WHICH INCLUDES AN APPLICATION FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE AS WELL AS A COPY OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY FOR CHARITY. WE EMPLOY A 3RD PARTY COMPANY WHO WORKS WITH UNINSURED PATIENTS ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL, OUTPATIENT SURGICAL PATIENTS, AND THOSE WITH COMBINED BILLS GREATER THAN $2500. THEY WILL EXPLAIN THE FAP PROCESS AND WILL ASSIST THE PATIENT WITH COMPLETING AND APPLYING FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE. IF THERE IS A MEDICAL ASSISTANCE DENIAL, ALL INFORMATION OBTAINED IS FORWARDED TO THE BUSINESS OFFICE TO SCREEN FOR FAP ELIGIBILITY.AFTER THE 2ND BILLING FROM OUR OFFICES WITH NO PAYMENT, THE NEXT 2 STATEMENTS, IF ACCOUNT IS STILL UNPAID, ARE SENT BY OUR PRE-COLLECTION AGENCY. IF ACCOUNT STILL REMAINS UNPAID, WE SEND ONE FINAL STATEMENT ADVISING TURNOVER TO A COLLECTION AGENCY.

| FORM 990, PART III, STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: | EXCELA HEALTH AND ITS AFFILIATES CONTINUE TO EMBRACE ITS MISSION OF: IMPROVING THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF EVERY LIFE WE TOUCH. FISCAL YEAR 2012 SAW THE INTRODUCTION OF NEW CONCEPTS, SERVICES AND TECHNOLOGIES WHILE VARIOUS NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS RECOGNIZED EXCELA HEALTH FOR ITS WORK. IN ALL CASES, THE RESULTING PROGRAMS, SERVICES AND AWARDS BENEFITTED THE AREA'S CITIZENRY AND DEMONSTRATED A FOCUS ON QUALITY MEASURES, FURTHER ENHANCING THE WAY WE PROVIDE CARE. PERHAPS MORE IMPORTANT WAS THE ADDITION OF HIGHLY TRAINED PHYSICIANS, NURSES AND HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS WHO CONTINUOUSLY BRING OUR MISSION TO LIFE WHILE TOGETHER, MANAGEMENT, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND MEDICAL STAFF COLLABORATE DILIGENTLY, AND THOUGHTFULLY, TO PROVIDE OUTSTANDING CARE TO THIS REGION. ALL IN A DAY'S WORK AT EXCELA HEALTH AS THE EXTRAORDINARY IS EMBRACED AS ROUTINE BY THE 4,591 EMPLOYEES, 603 PHYSICIANS, 184 ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, 18 RESIDENTS AND 1,095 VOLUNTEERS AND AUXILIARY MEMBERS WHO ARE THE LIFE'S BLOOD OF THE HEALTH SYSTEM. A PENNSYLVANIA NON-PROFIT CORPORATION AS DESCRIBED UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, EXCELA HEALTH WAS ORIGINALLY INCORPORATED AS SUCH EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1984 AND WAS KNOWN AS SOUTHWEST HEALTH SYSTEM, FOLLOWED BY THE NAME WESTMORELAND LATROBE HEALTH PARTNERS AND FINALLY, EXCELA HEALTH. COMPRISED OF THREE HOSPITALS - FRICK, LATROBE AND WESTMORELAND - IN ADDITION TO OTHER HEALTH-RELATED AFFILIATES, EXCELA HEALTH CONTINUES TO EXPAND AS THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY DEMAND. IT DID, HOWEVER, CLOSE ITS JEANNETTE CAMPUS JANUARY 31, 2011, DUE TO DECLINING PATIENT NUMBERS, THE COST OF OPERATING AN AGING BUILDING, AND A SHIFT IN PATIENT PREFERENCE FOR "MEDICAL MALLS." A NUMBER OF SERVICES PROVIDED AT THE JEANNETTE CAMPUS WERE SHIFTED TO EXCELA SQUARE AT NORWIN (FORMERLY KNOWN AS NORWIN MEDICAL COMMONS) IN NORTH HUNTINGDON, JUST FIVE MILES WEST OF JEANNETTE. THE TRADITION OF PROVIDING CARE IN NEIGHBORHOODS AND COMMUNITIES CONTINUES SO ACCESSIBILITY AND CONVENIENCE ARE MORE THAN JUST IDEAS BUT IDEALS BROUGHT TO LIFE FOR THE GOOD OF ALL CONSTITUENTS. ACROSS WESTMORELAND COUNTY AND BEYOND, EXCELA HEALTH OUTPATIENT REHABILITATION FOR OUTPATIENT PHYSICAL, OCCUPATIONAL AND SPEECH THERAPY, QUIKDRAW AND QUIKDRAW PLUS FOR ROUTINE BLOOD WORK, IMAGING AND DIAGNOSTICS, AND OUR NETWORK OF PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS OFFER HIGH QUALITY CARE AND SERVE AS EXAMPLES OF WHAT MEDICAL CARE IS ALL ABOUT - PROVIDING TREATMENT EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF MINIMIZING AND/OR RESOLVING THE DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS OF A GIVEN CONDITION SO INDIVIDUALS CAN LEAD THE BEST LIFE POSSIBLE. BUT "CONDITIONS" ENCOMPASS MORE THAN THE PHYSICAL; THEY INCLUDE THE PSYCHOSOCIAL/EMOTIONAL ASPECTS OF GOOD HEALTH AS WELL. THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH TEAM, WITH SERVICES OFFERED AT THE LATROBE AND WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL CAMPUSES, ALSO REACHES INTO THE COMMUNITY TO AID THOSE IN CRISIS. DURING FISCAL 2012, EXCELA HEALTH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES PROVIDED THE FOLLOWING COMMUNITY SERVICES: 1. THE D-CORT (DISASTER, CRISIS, OUTREACH AND REFERRAL TEAMS) WERE DISPATCHED AFTER VARIOUS DISASTERS AND INCIDENTS IN WESTMORELAND COUNTY COMMUNITIES. 2. EXCELA HEALTH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDES STUDENT ASSISTANCE (SAP) IN 12 SCHOOL DISTRICTS THROUGHOUT WESTMORELAND COUNTY. ADDITIONALLY, WE OPERATE FULL SERVICE OUTPATIENT CLINICS IN FOUR DISTRICTS: LATROBE, DERRY, MOUNT PLEASANT, AND THE NEWLY ADDED LIGONIER VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT. 3. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH OPERATES A SIX-WEEK SUMMER CAMP, CALLED CAMP FOCUS, WHICH SERVED 240 CHILDREN FROM THE LATROBE, DERRY AND MOUNT PLEASANT SCHOOL DISTRICTS. THE CAMP OFFERS AN ALTERNATIVE FOR SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN SO MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT, GROWTH AND LEARNING CAN CONTINUE DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS. THE DAY CAMP FEATURES INDIVIDUALIZED PLANS OF CARE TO RESOLVE A CHILD'S DIFFICULTIES MORE EXPEDIENTLY. EXPENSES FOR THE CAMP TOTAL $30,000. 4. STAFF PROVIDES VARIOUS TRAINING, IN-SERVICES AND CONSULTATIONS AT SEVERAL SCHOOLS DURING THE YEAR. 5. MOST RECENTLY, THE NEW CRISIS RESPONSE CENTER WAS OPENED, MARKING THE REMODELING AND EXPANSION OF THE CRISIS WALK-IN PROGRAM LOCATED ON THE WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL CAMPUS. SITUATED ON THE GROUND FLOOR OF THE EXISTING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CENTER, THE 4,000 SQUARE FOOT SPACE HAS FIVE INTERVIEW ROOMS, A FAMILY CONFERENCE ROOM WIRED FOR THE LATEST COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY, A LIVING ROOM, A GATHERING SPACE, AND A REDESIGNED STREET ENTRY AND WAITING AREA. WHEN FULLY OPERATIONAL, THE CENTER WILL BE STAFFED ROUND-THE-CLOCK BY NURSES, THERAPISTS, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH TECHNICIANS AND PEER SUPPORT SPECIALISTS WHO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION AND ASSESSMENT OF INDIVIDUALS IN PSYCHIATRIC CRISIS; DELIVER THOSE SERVICES IN A COMFORTING ENVIRONMENT THAT FOSTERS PROBLEM SOLVING AND ENGAGES COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND NATURAL SUPPORTS, AND USES PRINCIPLES OF RECOVERY THAT ENSURE INDIVIDUALIZED ATTENTION AND SERVICES NEEDED TO ADDRESS PROBLEMS PRESENTED IN THE MOST UNRESTRICTIVE ENVIRONMENT. BECAUSE MOST PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCIES ARE HANDLED IN HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOMS WITH LESS THAN OPTIMAL SERVICE PLANNING, MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT THE CENTER, WITH ITS ENVIRONMENT SPECIFIC TO AN INDIVIDUAL'S NEEDS IN PSYCHIATRIC CRISIS, DECREASES THE INCIDENCE OF INPATIENT ADMISSION, DECREASES INVOLUNTARY COMMITMENTS, AND IMPROVES OVERALL CRISIS EVENT OUTCOMES. THE EXCELA HEALTH JOINTWORKS AT ITS THREE HOSPITALS INCORPORATES CURRENT CARE FOR JOINT REPLACEMENT PATIENTS WITH UP-TO-THE-MINUTE TECHNIQUES AND TREATMENTS. JOINTWORKS, A PROGRAM THAT OFFERS A COMFORTABLE, ENJOYABLE AND RAPID JOINT REPLACEMENT EXPERIENCE, FEATURES A WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT AND ALLOWS THE PATIENT TO GO THROUGH THE THERAPY AND RECOVERY PROCESS WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO CAN ENCOURAGE THE PATIENT THROUGHOUT THAT TIME. THE PROGRAM LIVES THE CONCEPT OF A TEAM EFFORT AS ORTHOPEDIC SURGEONS, CAREGIVERS AND THERAPISTS IN THE HOSPITAL, HOME AND OUTPATIENT SETTINGS WORK CLOSELY WITH THE PATIENT AND FAMILY FOR THE BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME. FROM PRE-CONDITIONING EXERCISE TO HOME CARE FOLLOW-UP, JOINTWORKS PRESENTS A SEAMLESS APPROACH TO JOINT REPLACEMENT. MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY, TOO, REMAINS A VIABLE OPTION FOR THOSE NEEDING SURGERY AND IS AVAILABLE AT THE HOSPITALS OF EXCELA HEALTH. THE DA VINCI ROBOTIC SURGICAL SYSTEM, LOCATED AT LATROBE HOSPITAL, CONTINUES TO GROW IN POPULARITY, WITH TRAINED GENERAL, GYNECOLOGIC AND UROLOGIC SURGEONS PERFORMING PROCEDURES SUCH AS HYSTERECTOMY; UTERINE FIBROID REMOVAL; PROSTATE/PROSTATE CANCER SURGERIES; BLADDER AND KIDNEY SURGERIES; COLORECTAL, HIATAL HERNIA/ESOPHAGEAL (ACID REFLUX) SURGERY; GALLBLADDER AND HERNIA SURGERIES, AND OTHERS. THE DEVICE GREATLY AIDS IN PATIENT RECOVERY AND THE PHYSICIAN'S ABILITY TO PERFORM PROCEDURES WITH GREATER PRECISION AND VISIBILITY. OFFERING ROBOTIC SURGERY SINCE 2009, SOME 900 PATIENTS HAVE BENEFITTED FROM THIS TOOL. EXCELA HEALTH IS ALWAYS KEENLY AWARE OF QUALITY AND PATIENT SAFETY, AS EVIDENCED BY THE RANGE OF NEW INITIATIVES AND PROGRAMS UNDERTAKEN IN FY 2012 TO RAISE THE BAR EVEN HIGHER. AS SUCH, THE FOLLOWING WERE INSTITUTED AND, IN SOME CASES, MADE NOTE OF BY EXTERNAL AGENCIES. 1. EXCELA HEALTH WAS AWARDED THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY EXCELLENCE IN WORKPLACE TOBACCO CONTROL AWARD, THE FIRST COMPANY IN PENNSYLVANIA TO RECEIVE THIS NATIONAL DISTINCTION. OUR COMMITMENT TO HELPING EMPLOYEES TAKE STEPS TO STAY WELL BY PROVIDING THEM WITH TOBACCO CESSATION PROGRAMS, POLICIES AND BENEFITS COVERAGE THAT ENCOURAGES TOBACCO CESSATION IN THE WORKPLACE WAS RECOGNIZED. EXCELA HEALTH IS A PARTNER IN THE WESTMORELAND TOBACCO FREE COALITION, A VOLUNTARY ASSOCIATION OF ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS WORKING FOR TOBACCO-FREE YOUTH, TOBACCO CESSATION CLASSES FOR PEOPLE OF ALL AGES, AND A SMOKE-FREE ENVIRONMENT. 2. DURING FISCAL YEAR 2012, EXCELA HEALTH DEVELOPED A CARE TEAM OF LEAN FACILITATORS TO PROVIDE SUPPORT TO THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT (CI) EFFORTS. THE LEAN METHODOLOGY FOR CI IS BASED ON EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT AND TEAM ACTIVITIES FOCUSING ON REDESIGNING PROCESSES SO THEY DELIVER AND FOSTER RESULTS WITH IMPROVED MEDICAL OUTCOMES, FEWER ERRORS AND LESS WASTEFUL STEPS AND ACTIVITIES THAT TAKE AWAY FROM EXCELLENT PATIENT CARE. THE END RESULT: ENHANCED PATIENT EXPERIENCES. 3. TO PROMOTE QUALITY WHILE ENHANCING PATIENT EXPERIENCE, THE ENTIRE NURSING TEAM AT EXCELA HEALTH CONVERTED TO STANDARDIZED ATTIRE STARTING JAN. 1, 2012. THE ATTIRE IS ANOTHER VISIBLE CUE, MUCH LIKE EMPLOYEE NAME BADGES, THAT READILY IDENTIFIES MEMBERS OF THE CARE TEAM, HELPING PATIENTS DIFFERENTIATE AMONG STAFF. | |
| 4. THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH (DOH) COMPLETED THE CENTERS FOR MEDICARE AND MEDICAID SERVICES (CMS) VALIDATION AUDIT AT WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL IN AUGUST 2011. THE TEAM UTILIZED A CHECK LIST TO REQUEST INFORMATION, CONDUCT INTERVIEWS AND COMPLETE UNIT VISITS TO THE MAIN HOSPITAL INPATIENT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, INPATIENT REHABILITATION (LOCATED AT LATROBE HOSPITAL), QUIKDRAW AND QUIKDRAW PLUS, OUTPATIENT REHABILITATION CENTERS AND OUTPATIENT CLINICS (PAIN, WOUND AND DIABETES). THE SURVEY TEAM ALSO FOUND THE CREDENTIALING PROCESS, HUMAN RESOURCES, EMPLOYEE HEALTH AND NUTRITION SERVICES, AMONG OTHER AREAS, AS MEETING OR EXCEEDING REGULATORY EXPECTATIONS, NOTING STAFF COOPERATION AND APPROACHABILITY AS INVALUABLE TO THE PROCESS. ALL IN ALL, THE EXPERIENCE WAS A SUCCESS. 5. IN AUGUST 2011, THE EXCELA HEALTH CARDIOTHORACIC SURGICAL PROGRAM WAS RANKED AMONG THE NATION'S BEST BY CONSUMER REPORTS IN PRINT AND ONLINE AT CONSUMERREPORTS.ORG/HEALTH. LIKEWISE, THE EXCELA HEALTH PHYSICIAN PRACTICE OF CARDIOTHORACIC SURGICAL ASSOCIATES WAS RATED AMONG THE TOP 10 PERCENT NATIONALLY, HAVING RECEIVED A THREE-STAR RATING FROM THE SOCIETY OF THORACIC SURGEONS (STS) TWO YEARS RUNNING. KNOWN FOR ITS DATA RICH COMPARISONS OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES TO HELP BUYERS MAKE INFORMED CHOICES, CONSUMER REPORTS PARTNERED WITH STS TO PUBLISH RATINGS OF HEART SURGERY GROUPS BASED ON THEIR PERFORMANCE IN THE AREA OF HEART BYPASS SURGERIES KNOWN AS CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFTING OR CABG. USING THIS INFORMATION, POTENTIAL PATIENTS CAN SEE HOW SURGICAL GROUPS COMPARE WITH NATIONAL BENCHMARKS FOR OVERALL PERFORMANCE, SURVIVAL, COMPLICATIONS AND OTHER QUALITY MEASURES. THE SOCIETY OF THORACIC SURGEONS' REPORT IS THE GOLD STANDARD FOR EVALUATION OF CARDIAC SURGERY PROGRAMS. THE STS REPRESENTS SOME 5,400 SURGEONS WORLDWIDE. CONSUMER REPORTS INCLUDED ONLY THOSE GROUPS WHO AGREED TO HAVE THEIR PERFORMANCE RESULTS PUBLISHED AND INCLUDED 323 GROUPS FROM 44 STATES AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. EXCELA HEALTH IS ONE OF 81 GROUPS RECEIVING THREE STARS FOR OVERALL PERFORMANCE. THE STS USES 11 STANDARDIZED MEASURES ENDORSED BY THE NATIONAL QUALITY FORUM, A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO ESTABLISHING NATIONAL HEALTH CARE STANDARDS FOR PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT. 1. WITH THE INCREASING CHALLENGES AND COMPLEXITIES NURSES FACE, MANY CHOOSE TO SEEK OUT ONGOING EDUCATION TO ELEVATE SKILLS AND DEEPEN THEIR KNOWLEDGE BASE. LIKE PHYSICIANS, NURSES NOW CAN SEEK BOARD CERTIFICATION IN SPECIALIZED AREAS WITH OVER 80 EXCELA HEALTH NURSES DOING JUST THAT. AS NURSES UNDERTAKE EVER EXPANDING ROLES IN SECURING HIGHER LEVELS OF CARE, BOARD CERTIFICATION AIDS THAT PROCESS, ALLOWING FOR MORE DIVERSE EXCHANGES OF INFORMATION AND OPPORTUNITY FOR BEST PRACTICES TO ARISE, ULTIMATELY BENEFITTING THE PATIENT. CERTIFICATIONS MAY BE EARNED THROUGH VARIOUS AVENUES, WITH MOST REQUIRING CONTINUOUS REVIEW AND EDUCATION FOR RE-CERTIFICATION AFTER A GIVEN PERIOD OF TIME. EXCELA HEALTH NURSES HAVE EARNED CERTIFICATION IN SPECIALTIES INCLUDING DIABETES, HOSPICE AND PALLIATIVE CARE, MEDICAL-SURGICAL, CASE MANAGEMENT, CRITICAL CARE, OPERATING ROOM, EMERGENCY CARE AND MANY OTHERS. NURSING CERTIFICATION SPECIALTIES ARE OVERSEEN BY THE ACCREDITATION BOARD FOR SPECIALTY NURSING CARE. BUT CREDENTIALING AND CERTIFICATION IS NOT LIMITED TO NURSING. OTHER PROFESSIONAL STAFF AT EXCELA HEALTH HAVE SOUGHT OUT ADDITIONAL EXPERTISE SUCH AS CERTIFIED PROFESSIONALS IN HEALTH CARE QUALITY, CERTIFIED PULMONARY FUNCTION TECHNOLOGIST, CERTIFIED TUMOR REGISTRAR, CERTIFIED CODING ASSOCIATE AND MANY OTHERS. 2. WITH CONCERN FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND AN EYE TOWARD COST SAVINGS, EXCELA HEALTH, WORKING TOGETHER WITH THE WEST PENN POWER SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FUND (WPPSEF), IS REDUCING THE EXCELA HEALTH'S ENERGY USE WITHIN ITS THREE HOSPITALS. EXCELA HEALTH IS ALSO LOOKING TO REDUCE WATER COSTS. WITH THE HELP OF A $67,000 ENERGY EFFICIENT GRANT PROFFERED BY WPPSEF TO SUPPORT EXCELA HEALTH'S ENERGY REDUCTION PROGRAM, GOALS ARE IDENTIFIED AND PROGRAMS IMPLEMENTED THAT WILL HAVE AN ANNUAL REDUCTION OF 2M KWH OF ELECTRICITY, A 5 PERCENT REDUCTION IN NATURAL GAS USAGE, AND A 10 PERCENT REDUCTION IN WATER/SEWAGE UTILITIES. LOWER UTILITY EXPENSES HELP REDUCE OPERATING COSTS, THEREBY ALLOWING CAPITAL TO BE INVESTED IN MEDICAL SERVICES AND TECHNOLOGIES THAT ENHANCE PATIENT CARE. EXCELA HEALTH CONTINUES TO HOLD THE AMERICAN HEART /STROKE ASSOCIATION'S "GET WITH THE GUIDELINES" PROGRAM STROKE GOLD PLUS PERFORMANCE ACHIEVEMENT AWARD FOR ALL THREE HOSPITALS. TO RECEIVE THE AWARD, EXCELA HEALTH ACHIEVED 85 PERCENT OR HIGHER ADHERENCE TO ALL "GET WITH THE GUIDELINES - STROKE PERFORMANCE ACHIEVEMENT" INDICATORS FOR TWO OR MORE CONSECUTIVE 12-MONTH INTERVALS AND ACHIEVED 75 PERCENT OR HIGHER COMPLIANCE WITH SIX OF THE 10 "GET WITH THE GUIDELINES - STROKE QUALITY MEASURES," WHICH ARE REPORTING INITIATIVES TO MEASURE QUALITY OF CARE. JUST AS EXCELA HEALTH CARES FOR ITS PATIENTS, SO TOO, DOES IT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF ITS WORK FORCE THROUGH A VARIETY OF HEALTH INITIATIVES. EXCELA HEALTH CONTINUED THIS QUEST BY GARNERING THE HEALTHIEST EMPLOYER OF WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA FOR 2012, THE SECOND YEAR IN A ROW. AS ONE OF 36 COMPANIES IN THE PROGRAM AND A REPEAT WINNER IN THE 1,000 TO 4,999 EMPLOYEE CATEGORY, EXCELA HEALTH HAS SEEN A DECLINE IN THE COST OF PAID CLAIMS AND A RISE IN THE NUMBER OF PREVENTIVE HEALTH SCREENINGS - BOTH POSITIVE TRENDS. WORKERS' COMPENSATION CLAIMS ARE AT AN ALL-TIME LOW, AS IS THE OSHA-RECORDABLE RATE. THE PITTSBURGH BUSINESS TIMES, A LOCAL BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY PUBLICATION, PARTNERED WITH INDIANAPOLIS-BASED HEALTHIEST EMPLOYER LLC TO FIND THE HEALTHIEST WORKPLACES IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA. WALKING SPREE, A VOLUNTARY FITNESS PROGRAM OFFERED TO EMPLOYEES AND SPOUSES, CONTINUES TO ENJOY POPULARITY WITH WELL OVER 1,000 PARTICIPANTS LOGGING STEPS, AND MILES, OVER THE COURSE OF A 12-MONTH PERIOD. FURTHER, THIS PAST JANUARY EXCELA HEALTH OFFERED THE VISUAL EATING AND EXERCISE PLAN (VEEP), MADE FAMOUS BY ROBERT REAMES, HEAD TRAINER AND NUTRITIONIST ON THE DR. PHIL SHOW, TO AID IN HEALTHY WEIGHT LOSS AND OVERALL WELL-BEING. THE WEB-BASED PROGRAM, OPEN TO EMPLOYEES AND THEIR SPOUSES, ENCOMPASSED WEIGHT MANAGEMENT, STRESS REDUCTION, EXERCISE, REST AND LEARNING ABOUT REAL FOOD FOR REAL LIFE SITUATIONS. PERIODIC WEIGH-INS WERE HELD THROUGH THE EXCELA HEALTH WELL BEING CENTER ALONG WITH PRIZES GIVEN DURING THE COURSE OF THE PROGRAM. SOME 120 INDIVIDUALS PARTICIPATED WITH A GRAND PRIZE WINNER TO BE NAMED IN THE SPRING OF 2013. EXCELA HEALTH CONTINUES TO PARTNER WITH THE WESTMORELAND/FAYETTE WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD (WIB), WESTMORELAND COUNTY ACTION, WESTMORELAND COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE (WCCC) AND UNITED WAY OF WESTMORELAND COUNTY, TO OFFER ADDITIONAL EDUCATION, TRAINING AND SUPPORT SERVICES TO SINGLE MOTHERS WHO MEET A CERTAIN COMPENSATION LEVEL AND HAVE DEPENDENT CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18 THROUGH A PROGRAM CALLED MOMS MAKING MORE. THROUGH A GRANT FUNDED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND INDUSTRY, THE PROGRAM FOCUSES ON INCREASING THE FINANCIAL STABILITY OF FAMILIES HEADED BY SINGLE WOMEN. THROUGH AN INITIAL SURVEY OF EXCELA HEALTH EMPLOYEES, 7 WOMEN EXPRESSED INTEREST IN THE FOUR-WEEK CLASS THAT REVIEWED THEIR READINESS TO RETURN TO SCHOOL, GAUGE THEIR FINANCIAL POSITION, ACCESS PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH CARE AS WELL AS THEIR FAMILY AND COMMUNITY RELATIONSHIPS. EXCELA HEALTH WAS THE FIRST EMPLOYER IN THE COUNTY TO OFFER THIS TYPE OF OPPORTUNITY TO ITS EMPLOYEES. COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AS PART OF THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT OF 2010, NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS ARE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) SURVEY EVERY THREE YEARS. AN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN MUST BE ADOPTED TO ADDRESS THE IDENTIFIED NEEDS AND COMPLIANCE WITH THIS REQUIREMENT. THE PURPOSE OF THE CHNA PROCESS IS TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY HEALTH THROUGH UTILIZATION OF A MODEL THAT INTEGRATES HEALTH SYSTEM PLANNING WITH PUBLIC HEALTH AND COMMUNITY PLANNING. A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT MUST INCLUDE A DESCRIPTION OF THE COMMUNITY, A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESS AND METHODS TO CONDUCT THE ASSESSMENT AND OTHER COLLABORATING AGENCIES INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS, A DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE HOSPITAL CONSIDERED INPUT FROM PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY AND A DESCRIPTION OF THE HEALTH CARE FACILITIES AND OTHER RESOURCES WITHIN THE COMMUNITY AVAILABLE TO MEET THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. IF A HOSPITAL HAS MORE THAN ONE FACILITY, A SEPARATE REPORT AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY MUST BE COMPLETED FOR EACH FACILITY. ONCE THE CHNA IS COMPLETED, IT MUST BE MADE AVAILABLE WIDELY TO THE PUBLIC BY POSTING IT ON THE FACILITY'S WEB SITE AND MUST BE EASILY DOWNLOADABLE FROM THE WEB SITE. | ||
| EXCELA HEALTH COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT PLAN 1. ESTABLISH AN INFRASTRUCTURE - THE WINTER OF 2012 SAW EXCELA HEALTH PARTNER WITH THE UNITED WAY OF WESTMORELAND COUNTY TO CONDUCT THE CHNA OF WESTMORELAND COUNTY. A STEERING COMMITTEE HAD BEEN DEVELOPED, COMPRISED OF REPRESENTATIVES FROM LOCAL BUSINESS, SCHOOLS, THE PA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, AND SEVERAL COMMUNITY AGENCIES INCLUDING THE AREA AGENCY ON AGING, COMMUNITY ACTION, WESTMORELAND COUNTY DRUG & ALCOHOL COMMISSION AND YMCAS, AS WELL AS SEVERAL REPRESENTATIVES FROM EXCELA HEALTH. THE CONSULTING FIRM, STRATEGY SOLUTIONS, HAS BEEN RETAINED TO LEAD THE CHNA PROJECT. 2. DEFINE PURPOSE & SCOPE - A PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DATA PLAN HAS BEEN DEVELOPED. SECONDARY DATA WAS COMPLETED THROUGH ASSIMILATION OF AVAILABLE DATA PRIMARILY FROM THE PA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL, AND COMPARED WITH THE HEALTHY PEOPLE 2012 GOALS. THE DATA REVEALED THAT THE MORTALITY RATE FOR EMPHYSEMA, CARDIAC DISEASE AND MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS IS HIGHER IN WESTMORELAND COUNTY COMPARED TO STATE AND NATIONAL RATES. HEART DISEASE, DIABETES, STROKE, AND OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY ARE ADDITIONAL CONCERNS. YOUNG WOMEN IN WESTMORELAND COUNTY ARE MORE LIKELY TO SMOKE DURING PREGNANCY AND LESS LIKELY TO BREAST FEED COMPARED TO THE STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA. HEROIN AND OPIATE USE IS ON THE RISE IN THE COUNTY. MANY HEALTH ISSUES WERE MORE PREVALENT IN LOW INCOME POPULATIONS (< $25,000/YEAR) INCLUDING ASTHMA, OBESITY, DIABETES, MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION AND STROKE. LOW INCOME INDIVIDUALS ALSO REPORTED LESS LIFE SATISFACTION AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. PRIMARY DATA COLLECTION IS CURRENTLY UNDERWAY. SEVERAL FOCUS GROUPS ARE BEING CONDUCTED TO PROVIDE COMMUNITY RESIDENTS AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE THEIR INPUT ON THE NEEDS AND PRIORITIES OF THEIR COMMUNITIES. REPRESENTATION FROM THE LOW INCOME POPULATION WILL BE A FOCUS. KEY STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS WITH CONTENT EXPERTS IN THE AREAS OF IDENTIFIED CONCERNS ARE ALSO UNDERWAY. 3. DATA ANALYSIS - STRATEGY SOLUTIONS WILL ANALYZE ALL QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DATA AND PREPARE A PRESENTATION/SUMMARY OF THE DATA. THE DATA WILL BE PRESENTED TO THE STEERING COMMITTEE WITH AN EMPHASIS ON COMBINATIONS OF DISEASE INCIDENCE/RISK FACTORS THAT ARE POTENTIALLY ACTIONABLE IN NATURE, WHERE INTERVENTIONS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUTCOMES, AND INDICATORS WHERE THERE ARE LARGE DISPARITIES WITHIN SUB-REGIONS OR SUB-POPULATIONS AND/OR IN COMPARISON TO STATE AND NATIONAL STATISTICS. 4. SELECT PRIORITIES - THE STEERING COMMITTEE WILL SELECT CRITERIA FOR PRIORITIZATION OF ISSUES FOR INTERVENTION. COMMITTEE MEMBERS WILL BE POLLED USING TECHNOLOGY THAT WILL PRODUCE A CRITERIA MATRIX. THE TEAM MUST THEN SELECT THE ISSUES TO BE ADDRESSED IN THE NEXT THREE YEARS. 5. DOCUMENT AND COMMUNICATE RESULTS - THE FINAL REPORT AND PRIORITIES MUST BE COMMUNICATED THROUGH VARIOUS METHODS INCLUDING WEB SITE AVAILABILITY. 6. ACTION PLAN AND MONITOR PLAN - THE STEERING COMMITTEE WILL WORK WITH STRATEGY SOLUTIONS TO DEVELOP AN IMPLEMENTATION ACTION PLAN TO ADDRESS THE PRIORITIES CHOSEN. THE ACTION PLAN WILL BE A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT OF APPROPRIATE AGENCIES AND SERVICES IN WESTMORELAND COUNTY. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH PLANNING PROCESS WILL THEN DRIVE THE EXCELA HEALTH PLANNING PROCESS AND PROVIDE A COORDINATED PLAN FOR IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF THE OVERALL COMMUNITY. BY WAY OF SYSTEM-WIDE EQUIPMENT AND SERVICE ENHANCEMENTS, EXCELA HEALTH COMMITTED MONIES TOWARD SEVERAL VITAL SERVICE ADDITIONS: 1. REMODELING BEGAN IN FY 2012 FOR THE FRICK HOSPITAL CRITICAL CARE UNIT TO CREATE PRIVATE ROOMS AND EXPAND CAPACITY WITH UPGRADES TO FURNISHINGS, FIXTURES AND FIRE SAFETY ON THE HOSPITAL'S THIRD FLOOR. 2. EXCELA HEALTH INTRODUCED RADIAL CATHETERIZATION TO DETERMINE HOW WELL A PERSON'S HEART IS FUNCTIONING. THIS TRANSRADIAL APPROACH, DIFFERENT FROM THE TRADITIONAL CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION SITE (LEG), HAS THE ADVANTAGES OF DECREASED INCIDENCE OF BLEEDING AND INCREASED PATIENT COMFORT. 3. ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD (EMR) WENT LIVE AT LATROBE HOSPITAL FOLLOWED BY A GO LIVE AT FRICK HOSPITAL. WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL IS SET TO FOLLOW IN THE SPRING OF 2013. AMONG THE MANY ADVANTAGES, EMR SERVES AS A SINGLE SOURCE OF INFORMATION DURING A PATIENT'S HOSPITAL STAY, PROVIDES READY ACCESS TO MEDICAL INFORMATION BY ALL MEMBERS OF THE HEALTH CARE TEAM, AND PROMOTES SAFETY. 4. THE ACCREDITATION FOR CARDIOVASCULAR EXCELLENCE (ACE) PROGRAM HAS AWARDED ACCREDITATION TO EXCELA HEALTH'S CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION LABORATORY AND ANGIOPLASTY/STENTING PROGRAM. ACE ACCREDITATION RECOGNIZES THE COMMITMENT OF CLINICIANS AND STAFF TO QUALITY ASSURANCE, PEER REVIEW, AND THE USE OF EVIDENCE-BASED GUIDELINES. EXCELA HEALTH IS THE FIRST HEALTH SYSTEM IN PENNSYLVANIA AND ONLY THE FIFTH IN THE NATION TO RECEIVE IT. ACCORDING TO BONNIE WEINER, MD, MSEC, MBV, FSCAI, CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER AND CHAIR OF ACE'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND DIRECTOR OF INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY RESEARCH AT ST. VINCENT HOSPITAL, WORCHESTER MEDICAL CENTER, WORCHESTER, MASS.: BY SEEKING ACE CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION ACCREDITATION, EXCELA HEALTH HAS SHOWN THAT IT HAS AN UNCOMPROMISING COMMITMENT TO PROVIDE SAFE, HIGH QUALITY CARE. THE WILLINGNESS TO BE EVALUATED AGAINST NATIONALLY ACCEPTED GOLD STANDARD PRACTICES DEMONSTRATES A DESIRE TO MEET THE HIGHEST QUALITY STANDARDS SET BY THE EXPERTS IN CARDIAC AND ENDOVASCULAR CARE. ACE IS SPONSORED BY THE SOCIETY FOR CARDIOVASCULAR ANGIOGRAPHY AND INTERVENTION AND THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CARDIOLOGY FOUNDATION, THE TWO LEADING PROFESSIONAL CARDIOVASCULAR ORGANIZATIONS JOINTLY REPRESENTING MORE THAN 40,000 PRACTITIONERS. 5. "QUALITY CENTER UPDATE" FROM THE HOSPITAL AND HEALTH SYSTEM OF PENNSYLVANIA (HAP) FEATURED WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL'S SUCCESS IN ADDRESSING EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT THROUGHPUT. THEY WERE RECOGNIZED FOR IMPROVING EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT THROUGHPUT USING BETTER COMMUNICATION TO REDUCE WAIT TIMES FOR PATIENTS ADMITTED FROM THE DEPARTMENT TO AN INPATIENT UNIT. 6. PRIVATE ROOMS ARE NOW THE STANDARD WITH THE CONVERSION MADE OVER SEVERAL MONTHS AT LATROBE HOSPITAL IN LATE 2011. PRIVATE ROOMS ALLOW CHANGES IN PATIENT PERCEPTION ABOUT NOISE AND BUSTLE, TEAM MEMBERS TO CONCENTRATE MORE FULLY ON THAT PATIENT, AND GREATER FLEXIBILITY WITH VISITATION. CONVERSION TO PRIVATE ROOMS IS ALSO IN THE WORKS AT FRICK HOSPITAL. 7. A NEW LUNG CENTER WAS OPENED IN SEPTEMBER 2011 TO AID THOSE WITH LUNG DISEASES. THE CENTER OFFERS LOW COST SCREENING AND APPROPRIATE FOLLOW-UP FOR PEOPLE AT HIGH RISK FOR LUNG DISEASE. ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE, 68 PERCENT OF ALL CANCER CASES IN WESTMORELAND COUNTY ARE OF THE LUNG AND BRONCHI FOR AN AVERAGE OF 353 NEW DIAGNOSES ANNUALLY. 8. DIAGNOSTIC ASSOCIATES, MOVING THEIR OFFICE INSIDE LATROBE HOSPITAL, TRANSFORMED THEIR PRACTICE TO A STATE-OF-THE-ART PATIENT CARE COMPLEX THAT INCLUDES A SPECIALTY SUITE FOR EXCELA HEALTH CARDIOLOGY. THE MODEL FOR THE PRACTICE, CALLED A PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME, IS A NEW TREND IN THE WAY PRIMARY CARE IS DELIVERED AND WILL SERVE AS THE INITIAL FRAMEWORK FOR SUBSEQUENT PRACTICES. 9. EXCELA HEALTH EXPANDED ITS NETWORK OF QUIKDRAWS BY ADDING A LOCATION ON THE FORMER WESTMORELAND HOSPITAL AT JEANNETTE CAMPUS. TO ADDRESS PUBLIC NEED, ALL QUIKDRAW AND QUIKDRAW PLUS SITES EXPANDED HOURS TO OPEN AT 6 A.M. 10. GENERAL SURGEON DANIEL CLARK PERFORMED THE FIRST DA VINCI SINGLE-SITE CHOLECYSTECTOMY IN SOUTHWESTERN PENNSYLVANIA. USING THE ROBOTIC ASSISTANCE, DR. CLARK REMOVED THE GALLBLADDER THROUGH AN INCISION OF APPROXIMATELY ONE INCH. EXCELA HEALTH LATROBE IS ONE OF ONLY 100 HOSPITALS NATIONWIDE TO HAVE THE SINGLE-SITE INSTRUMENTS, AND DR. CLARK IS ONE OF 50 SURGEONS IN THE COUNTRY WHO HAS RECEIVED TRAINING TO PERFORM THE SURGERY. NINE SURGEONS ON STAFF AT EXCELA HEALTH UTILIZE ROBOTIC-ASSISTED SURGERY FOR HYSTERECTOMIES, UTERINE PROLAPSED, PROSTATE AND KIDNEY CANCER, HERNIA AND OTHER ABDOMINAL PROCEDURES, TO NAME A FEW. | ||
| EXCELA HEALTH ALSO OFFERS CARE ACROSS A CONTINUUM FROM PREVENTION AND WELLNESS TO EMERGENCY CARE, ACUTE CARE, OUTPATIENT CARE, REHABILITATION, HOME CARE AND HOSPICE. THROUGH A SYSTEM APPROACH, EXCELA HEALTH CAN, AND DOES, SEEK TO MAKE CARE ACCESSIBLE AND AFFORDABLE WHILE ATTRACTING AND RETAINING TALENTED PROFESSIONALS WHO STRIVE TO RAISE THE QUALITY BAR, ALLOWING FOR A LEVEL AND SOPHISTICATION OF SERVICES THAT PREVIOUSLY COULD ONLY BE FOUND IN TERTIARY MEDICAL CENTERS. FURTHER, EXCELA HEALTH, WHICH IS WESTMORELAND COUNTY'S LARGEST EMPLOYER, HAS MADE A $985 MILLION IMPACT ON PENNSYLVANIA'S ECONOMY IN 2010. THE RIPPLE BENEFIT OF ITS WORKFORCE AND ANNUAL TOTAL SPENDING IS BASED ON REGIONAL ECONOMIC MULTIPLIERS FROM THE BUREAU OF ECONOMIC ANALYSIS, U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, AND RIMS II MULTIPLIER FOR THE HOSPITAL INDUSTRY. IN FACT, EXCELA HEALTH HAS GARNERED MUCH RECOGNITION FOR OUR EFFORTS ON BEHALF OF THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF THE PUBLICS WE SERVE, ALWAYS STRIVING FOR EXCELLENCE AS OUR VERY NAME IMPLIES. WE TAKE THE ROLE OF CORPORATE CITIZEN SERIOUSLY, TOO, PARTNERING WITH COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT VARIOUS HEALTH ISSUES, GIVING OUR TIME AND TALENTS TO NEIGHBORHOOD CAUSES, AND SUPPORTING THE EFFORTS OF AREA HEALTH-RELATED GROUPS AND OTHERS WHOSE MISSION MESHES WITH OUR OWN. CASES IN POINT INCLUDE: 1. EXCELA HEALTH NURSING COLLECTED 3,368 POUNDS OF FOOD FOR THE WESTMORELAND COUNTY FOOD BANK. WITH A GOAL OF 2,012 POUNDS FOR THE YEAR 2012, THE NURSING STAFF FAR EXCEEDED ITS GOAL SET FOR NURSES' WEEK AND CONTINUED THE DRIVE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE MONTH OF MAY. 2. STAFF RAISED $1,054 FOR THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY'S MAKING STRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER WALK. 3. EXCELA HEALTH MANAGEMENT PARTICIPATED IN THE ANNUAL UNITED WAY DAY OF CARING, DEMONSTRATING THEIR COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY STEWARDSHIP. THESE VOLUNTEERS ASSUMED PROJECTS THAT BENEFITTED AREA ORGANIZATIONS FROM PAINTING AT THE WESTMORELAND COUNTY FOOD BANK TO GIVING AN AREA SCHOOL PLAYGROUND A MUCH NEEDED FACE LIFT. EXCELA HEALTH EMPLOYEES ALSO SUPPORT THE UNITED WAY THROUGH PLEDGES AND ANNUAL DONATIONS. 4. EXCELA HEALTH'S MALL WALKERS PROGRAM, WHICH BEGAN IN JANUARY 2012, GATHERS TOGETHER AN AVERAGE OF 200 INDIVIDUALS EACH MONTH (EXCLUDING DECEMBER) AT WESTMORELAND MALL, LOCATED IN GREENSBURG, PA. EACH MONTH THE GROUP CAN AVAIL THEMSELVES OF FREE HEALTH SCREENING(S), HEAR A HEALTH PROFESSIONAL DISCUSS A RELEVANT HEALTH TOPIC, ENJOY A HEALTHY BREAKFAST AND WALK THE PRE-MEASURED DISTANCES WITHIN THE MALL. TO ADD A COMPETITIVE EDGE, EACH WALKER WAS PROVIDED A PEDOMETER THAT CAN BE DOWNLOADED TO COMPARE STEPS AND MILES AMONG THE GROUP AND OTHERS WITHIN EXCELA HEALTH'S WALKING SPREE GROUP. AS A FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION, WE CONTINUE TO LOOK AT WAYS TO CONSOLIDATE, INTEGRATE AND INITIATE PRACTICES AND PROCESSES THAT CAN SUSTAIN US OVER TIME, SO THAT WE ARE HERE TODAY, AND WELL INTO THE FUTURE.
