Description	Surgical Services: See Schedule O.Surgical Services: Expenses - $34,699,988; Revenue - $32,197,926In 2012, surgeons at Methodist Medical Center performed procedures on 7327 patients in several surgical specialty areas, including neurology, neurosurgery, and vascular surgery. Under the clinical leadership of a board-certified neurosurgeon with a doctorate in neuroscience/anatomy, Methodist Medical Center's neurosurgery staff is committed to restoring quality of life to the fullest extent possible. Surgery is performed on patients with malignant, benign and metastatic brain tumors; aneurysms and malformations of the blood vessels; head and spinal injuries; herniated discs; epilepsy; and other conditions of the head, neck and back. Sophisticated imaging tools such as Methodist Medical Center's 3Tesla MRI provide detailed views of the central nervous system. However, images of the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles alone are not always enough when medical problems occur. The medical center's neurodiagnostic services include a full-range of studies including EEGs, somatosensory and visual response tests, and nerve conduction and transcranial Doppler studies. These tests allow physicians to gather more data to better diagnose and treat problems such as stroke, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's, cerebral palsy, brain tumors, spinal cord function, headaches, vision loss, and other conditions.Vascular surgeons at Methodist perform procedures throughout the body to remove blockages in arteries, bypass diseased arteries, and replace vascular areas weakened by aneurysms. Examples include life-saving surgery for patients with carotid artery disease or inadequate blood flow to the kidneys or digestive organs, angiography, prosthetic grafts, balloon angioplasty, stents and stent-grafts.Prostate cancer is the second highest cause of cancer-related deaths in men. Fortunately, the robotic surgical system at Methodist is striving to reduce this statistic by making robotic prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer available in East Tennessee. Urologists at Methodist primarily perform three robotic procedures using the surgical robot; radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer, radical cystoprostatectomy for bladder cancer, and partical nephrectomy for kidney cancer.

ExplanationExplanation	IdentifierIdentifier
Part I, Line 6a: Covenant Health, the parent company of Methodist Medical Center and other affiliated acute care hospitals, prepares an annual Report to the Community on behalf of the entire system.
Part I, Line 7: Amounts on Lines 7a-7c and certain program costs included on Line 7g are from the hospital's cost accounting system, which addresses all patient segments. Other community benefit expenses are at cost from the general ledger.
Part I, Line 7g: The organization has included $1,785,485 in physician sponsorship fees in total subsidized health services.
Part I, Line 7, Column (f): The Bad Debt expense included on Form 990, Part IX, Line 25, Column (A), but subtracted for purposes of calculating the percentage in this column is $ 17050642.
Part II: Methodist Medical Center cares for the whole person and recognizes that improved social and economic conditions may lead to the improved health and well-being of the community. The hospital's community building activities and those of its parent organization, Covenant Health, address many of the root causes of health problems, such as poverty and homelessness, and finding solutions to alleviate the symptoms.An allocation of the Parent's community building expenditures has been made to each member hospital in proportion to the financial contribution of each to the health system. Covenant Health is not a hospital and does not file Schedule H with its Form 990. In 2012 contributions were made to organizations meeting the community's needs by providing: Affordable, permanent housing and case management services to foster self-sufficiency - Knoxville's Community Development Corporation (KCDC) Residential and foster care for children, special education services, and support services to reunite families and keep them together - Holston Home for Children The basic needs of life including temporary shelter, food and clothing - Catholic Charities, Family Promise, Ladies of Charity, and others Youth mentoring and development and after-school programs - Emerald Youth Foundation and Boy Scouts of America Business recruitment and marketing initiatives that boost economic development - East Tennessee Economic Development Agency (ETEDA) and Innovation Valley Leadership development programs and workshops - Leadership Knoxville *Assistance and special programs for at risk, physically challenged, abused and neglected children - Variety of Eastern Tennessee (local chapter of Variety-The Children's Charity)
Part III, Line 4: Part III, Line 2: Bad debt expense on Line 2 is the amount recorded in the organization's financial statements. Discounts and payments on patient accounts are netted against bad debt.Part III, Line 3: In 2011, the hospital reviewed all self-pay accounts receivable to identify patients who might have qualified for financial assistance. As of year end, the hospital could not make a final determination as to their qualification for financial assistance due to all information not yet being received but felt strongly that the patient was in need of some form of assistance. Notes in the patient record were examined to see if a charity care application had been sent to the patient or guarantor or if the account was being analyzed by a business office employee for approval for charity care. The percentage of patient accounts being analyzed as a percent of total self-pay accounts receivable has been applied to the current year total bad debt expense on Line 2 to arrive at the amount reported on Line 3.It is our belief that the amount of bad debt on Line 3 should be included as community benefit. As a tax-exempt hospital, we must provide necessary services regardless of the patient's ability to pay for the service provided. As a not-for-profit, patient care is provided to all, regardless of ability to pay for that care. Making quality patient care available to all in our community, regardless of economic means, qualifies bad debts as a community benefit.Part III, Line 4: Note B to the 2012 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Covenant Health system, of which Methodist Medical Center is a member, reads in part: "Patient accounts receivable are reported net of both an estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts and an estimated allowance for contractual adjustments. The contractual allowance represents the difference between established billing rates and estimated reimbursement from Medicare, TennCare and other third-party payment programs. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is estimated based upon the age of the patient accounts receivable, prior experience and any unusual circumstances (such as local, regional or national economic conditions) which affect the collectability of receivables, including management's assumptions about conditions it expects to exist and courses of action it expects to take. Covenant's policy does not require collateral or other security for patient accounts receivable and Covenant routinely accepts assignment of, or is otherwise entitled to receive, patient benefits payable under health insurance programs, plans or policies."
Part III, Line 8: Medicare Shortfall: Methodist Medical Center believes that all of the $1.8 million shortfall reported in Line 7 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. This year, Medicare patients accounted for 44% of total patient days (21,577 out of 49,025 total). The hospital provides care regardless of this shortfall and thereby relieves the federal government of the burden of paying the full cost for Medicare beneficiaries.Costing Methodology: Methodist Medical Center used a combination of sources in calculating Medicare allowable costs on Part III, Line 6 including its cost accounting system, general ledger accounting system, and facility-specific analyses and calculations.
Part III, Line 9b: Self-pay patients automatically receive a minimum 46% discount on charges. Federal poverty guidelines are utilized in the determination of charity care eligibility. Patients who are unable to pay and have exhausted all sources of payment assistance may qualify for charity care. A sliding scale is used for extending charity care utilizing the income levels reported under the federal poverty guidelines. Patients/guarantors with income that falls below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines receive 100% charity care. Patients/guarantors with income of 201-300% of the federal poverty guidelines receive 70% charity care. For catastrophic illness, exceptions to income and asset limitations may be made on a case-by-case basis. The amount considered for charity will be based upon the evaluation of the patient's/guarantor's ability to pay.Patients/guarantors who qualify for partial financial assistance are responsible for paying any balance remaining after the charity adjustment and third party payments. Once an account has been processed through routine collection channels internally, it may be assigned to an attorney/agency for collection. The patient/guarantor will be billed for all collection costs as may be applicable. Credit reports will be filed no earlier than 30 days following the assignment on all nonpaid balances.

Part V, Section B, Line 20d: Please see the explanation to Part III, Line 9b.	Methodist Medical Center
Part VI, Line 2: Covenant Health, on behalf of its affiliated hospitals, is engaged in conducting community health needs assessments. Covenant has chosen to complete the assessment process in partnership with the local health department, free health clinics, community based health councils, United Way and chambers of commerce.The assessment is utilizing a variety of data collection methods to ensure that at risk populations have a voice in the process. Qualitative research is being conducted using focus groups of community leaders, key informant interviews, and household surveys of 500-600 per county. In working with area health departments, a variety of health statistics have been gathered including demographics, social-cultural indicators, morbidity and mortality data, health rankings, KIDS COUNT data, health professional needs per population, and behavioral risk factor data.Upon completion of data collection, a community based data synthesis team will begin to meet, discuss, and prioritize the significant findings. Each hospital will proceed with the assessment's significant findings and translate that into an action plan to address the identified needs.
Part VI, Line 3: Methodist Medical Center informs patients and other patients who may have been billed for patient care about its financial assistance policies by posting signs in highly visible areas of the hospital and including information about the financial assistance policy in patient folders and booklets placed in all inpatient rooms.The following sign is posted in the lobby at Outpatient Registration, Cheyenne Diagnostic Center, and the Emergency Department registration entrance: Covenant Health is committed to providing quality health services in a caring environment. It is the expressed philosophy of Covenant Health, and its member hospitals, that no one should be denied medically necessary care because of the inability to pay. In conjunction with this philosophy, staff of Methodist Medical Center is available to help you with your financial needs. If you are an uninsured person with no public or private source of payment for medical services, Methodist Medical Center, in compliance with Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 47, Chapter 18 and Title 68, will provide at a reduced rate, medically indicated services. A financial counselor is available to assist you with these matters by calling 865.835.3600, Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.Signs are also posted at various registration desks: Financial Assistance: It is Methodist Medical Center's philosophy that no one shall be denied medically necessary services based on the inability to pay.

The Charity Care Policy states that patients who are unable to pay and have exhausted all sources of payment assistance may be screened for potential charity care eligibility. According to the policy, the financial counselors initiate screening of the patient and/or guarantor by obtaining income and other financial information to determine eligibility for charity care or discounted services.
Part VI, Line 4: Methodist Medical Center defines its primary market as the counties of Anderson and Roane in East Tennessee. Anderson is a bedroom community to the metropolitan Knoxville area but is itself a rural county. Methodist is the only hospital in Anderson County but shares its primary market with Roane County Medical Center in bordering Roane County. According to internal hospital data for 2012, about 43% of the inpatient discharges were Anderson County residents, and 23% were Roane County residents.The following statistics are taken from 2008 data of the U.S. Census Bureau. The combined two-county population totals about 129,307 people and is predominantly female (52%) and Caucasian (94%). Anderson County residents have a median income of $44,872 per household, while the figures for Roane County households are $43,129. Anderson County has a higher percentage (17.6%) of its population over the age of 65 than many of its peer counties. Twenty-one percent of the county's residents are under the age of 18. In 2010, the total percentage of persons living below the poverty level was 17.6%, and the unemployment rate was 8.4%.According to the 2013 County Health Rankings Report recently released study by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation/ University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute, Anderson County residents have the following health indicators that are above the national benchmarks: Anderson - TN - National Adult Smoking: 24% - 23% - 13% Adult Obesity: 31% - 32% - 25% Excessive Drinking: 12% - 10% - 7% Teen Birthrate: 46 - 50 - 21 of every 1,000 teenage girls Poor or Fair Health: 18% - 19% - 10% Physical Inactivity: 33% - 30% - 21%
Part VI, Line 5: Methodist Medical Center (MMC), in conjunction with its parent company, Covenant Health, uses any available surplus of receipts over disbursements to expand and modernize the facility and to support the education of healthcare professionals, both of which serve to improve patient care and serve the unmet needs of the community.Covenant Health's Board of Directors serves as MMC's board. It is comprised of independent community leaders with diverse educational and professional backgrounds. The board sets policies and provides oversight of MMC.MMC maintains an open medical staff, with privileges available to all qualified physicians. Additionally, the hospital operates an active and accessible emergency department that accepts all patients regardless of ability to pay.
Part VI, Line 6: Methodist Medical Center of Oak Ridge (MMC), as a member of the Covenant Health system, benefits from the collaboration among all affiliated organizations to promote quality improvement, patient safety and efficient delivery of care for the communities served.Methodist is one of the first hospitals in East Tennessee to offer cutting-edge treatments and technologies that benefit people with life-threatening aneurysms; severely damaged knee, hip and shoulder joints; sudden heart failure; and non-healing wounds.The medical center is among the first hospitals in the nation to open comprehensive chest and breast clinics that have reduced the waiting time between suspicion of cancer and beginning of treatment from weeks or months to days. It was also the first hospital in the area to implement a hypothermia protocol which lowers a patient's body temperature after cardiac arrest to reduce the risk of brain damage. Methodist is also the only medical center in East Tennessee to offer left ventricular assist device support for cardio septic shock and in high-risk heart procedures.A 301-bed regional medical center, Methodist serves an area that includes nearly 200,000 people in Tennessee and Kentucky. Doctors trained in more than 30 specialties ranging from open heart and neurosurgery to orthopedics and vascular care provide care. This staff represents one of the highest percentages of board-certified physicians in the region. In 2011, Methodist Medical Center earned national recognition for its clinical and service excellence. In July 2011, Methodist was ranked by U.S. News & World Report as No. 1 hospital in Knoxville metro area. The medical center was also one of only 28 out of 1,350 hospitals across the country to receive VHA, Inc.'s Leadership Award for Clinical Excellence held May 2011. The medical center was also awarded the 2011 Gold Performance Award from American College of Cardiology ACTION Registry for urgent heart care that is 25 minutes faster than the national benchmark. Methodist ranks in the top 11% across the nation for core measures, while its joint replacement and oncology services also rank in the top 10% nationwide for overall quality of care by Professional Research Consulting (PRC).Unique Services:--New 30-bed ortho-neuro unit with specialty joint destination center for hip and knee replacement patients.--New electrophysiology services for minimally invasive cardiac procedures and diagnostic technology such as a 64-slice CT which can capture images of the heart and coronary arteries in as little as five heartbeats.--Emergency and cardiac care collaboration yielding average door-to-balloon times which beat the national benchmark of 90 minutes by more 25 minutes.--Fully-accredited sleep diagnostic center staffed with a multi-boarded and fellowship trained physician and a clinical team comprised 100% of registered polysomnographic technicians.--The first dedicated wound treatment center in the greater Knoxville area to offer hyperbaric oxygen technology to treat chronic non-healing wounds.--Fully-deployed surgical robotics program featuring the latest technology for heart, lung, gynecological and prostate procedures.--Critical care program offering leading-edge and life-saving treatments for bloodstream infections and brain injuries associated with heart attacks.--Hypothermia protocol which lowers a patient's body temperature after cardiac arrest to reduce the risk of brain damage.--Left ventricular assist device support for cardio septic shock and in high-risk heart procedures.--One of the first comprehensive chest and breast clinics of its type in the nation--now reducing the time between discovery of possible cancer and treatment from weeks to days.--Individualized occupational, physical and speech therapies, including neurological, orthopedic, vestibular and pediatric rehab.--Regional cancer center offering image-guided radiation therapy, a nationally recognized disease management program, access to clinical trials, personalized patient navigator assistance and formal pain management program and the most experienced provider of high dose rate brachytherapy for women with cervical, uterine and vaginal cancer.Integrated ServicesAs a system, Covenant Health assures that business processes are in place at each facility to measure and report quality, to increase the role of compliance, and to integrate risk management, utilization review, peer review, mandatory reporting and quality improvement into one cohesive function. In this way the system is able to use analytic tools to help identify any systemic inability to satisfy the various requirements on the part of the facilities.MMC patients benefit from the availability of and ease of access to Covenant Health affiliated entities for services not provided by the hospital itself. Transfer or referral to such services is expedited and coordinated to help create a seamless continuum of care. A full range of community mental health and psychiatric hospital services are available within the system which help support the hospital's emergency room as well as provide an accessible and efficient pathway for those patients who require such services post discharge. Other specialized services such as inpatient rehabilitation, cancer treatment, home health and hospice services are provided by affiliated entities. The Covenant Health system also enhances the patient's access to care through the provision of outpatient services in a variety of settings located throughout the service area.--A majority of Roane Medical Center's ER patients requiring transfer are sent to Methodist.--Methodist transfers over 50% of its patients who need home health care to Covenant Homecare.--Fortress Corporation manages Methodist's physician office buildings.--Covenant Medical Managements manages the hospital's employed physicians.--Covenant Health's corporate finance department completes the medical center's tax returns and cost reports and reports financials to the Board, etc.--Covenant Health's corporate billing office bills the medical center's services to patients and insurance companies.--Methodist's laboratory performs certain lab testing for other Covenant facilities.--Methodist's Capacity Management Center takes calls for the Covenant Rapid Access Center for the system at night.Foundation Support:Methodist Medical Center Foundation was established in 1990 to acquire and accept charitable gifts for Methodist Medical Center to help all those in need receive the highest quality of care regardless of the ability to pay. The Foundation is a separate, non-profit corporation which is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, each of whom is a recognized leader in the communities MMC serves. Signature Foundation events such as Casino Night, Diva Day, Acorn Classic Golf Tournament and Holiday Lights for Health make it possible for the medical center to provide many important services and technologies to the community including:--Free lodging through the Hospitality Houses for patients and families far from home,--Assistance to patients, families or employees who find themselves in desperate situations, --Support of cancer and palliative care programs, advanced cardiac and robotics technology--Education and scholarship support for medical center employees, and--A special fund for the greatest area of need.Through this combination of resources and the collective development, implementation and monitoring clinical protocols and other improvement initiatives, the affiliated entities of Covenant Health are able to deliver higher quality care in a more efficient manner than could be achieved working independently.

Organization Mission Statement	Form 990, Part III, Line 1	In 1996, Fort Sanders Health System and MMC Healthcare System of Oak Ridge consolidated to form Covenant Health, with a mission of serving its communities by improving the quality of life through better health. Covenant Health is a nationally recognized top health system in many areas: patient care, quality performance, cost, integration, information technology, finances, ethics and innovation. To meet the challenges and implications of healthcare reform, Covenant Health has committed to these imperatives: * Serving the community as a not-for-profit health system. * Leading in quality and service. * Outstanding governance and leadership. * An engaged work force with the right skill sets. * Being the practice environment of choice for physicians. * Reinvesting in communities, providing programs, services, technologies and facilities that improve local healthcare services and patient care. Covenant Health has invested more than a billion dollars in its communities since 2000 - a commitment no other healthcare organization has approached. Covenant Health has opened new hospitals, expanded services, and brought cutting-edge medical technology to the region. * Meeting the challenges of the healthcare environment through effective strategic planning and wise use of resources. * Providing excellent care to every patient, every time. This commitment to excellence will help the system accomplish its mission of improving the quality of life through better health. In order to deliver on the promise of excellence in today's healthcare environment, preparation is critical. Covenant Health's Board of Directors ("the Board") is committed to advancing its understanding of health care. The Board is continually learning about hospitals' operational challenges and how the current environment affects physicians and their practices. The healthcare universe is constantly shifting. The Board members are volunteers, but have a passion for Covenant Health's mission, and a desire to expand its knowledge in preparation for leading the organization. Dedication to a shared goal is essential. Very few community endeavors are as important as making high-quality health care available to its citizens. Our patients and their families are at vulnerable points in their lives, and the Board believes it is a privilege to meet their healthcare needs. Experience is a valuable asset. Covenant Health has a legacy of delivering high-quality care, which will help to weather the storms of change, including transitioning to value-based reimbursement. COVENANT HEALTH MEMBER ORGANIZATIONS AND SERVICES Covenant Health Board members and administrative leaders serve their communities through strategic planning and successful operation of these member organizations: Hospitals and Other Healthcare Providers: Covenant Homecare and Hospice Fort Loudoun Medical Center Fort Sanders Perinatal Center Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center LeConte Medical Center Methodist Medical Center of Oak Ridge Morristown-Hamblen Healthcare System Parkwest Medical Center Peninsula Hospital, a Division of Parkwest Medical Center Roane County Medical Center Thompson Cancer Survival Center Thompson Oncology Group Knoxville Heart Group Outpatient and Specialty Care Departments, and Joint Ventures: Fort Sanders West Diagnostic Center Fort Sanders West Outpatient Surgery Center Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center Peninsula Outpatient Centers Fort Sanders Sevier Nursing Home Foundations: Fort Sanders Foundation Methodist Medical Center Foundation Morristown-Hamblen Hospital Foundation Thompson Cancer Survival Center Foundation BRINGING QUALITY CARE TO LOCAL COMMUNITIES Covenant Health delivers quality care, with services designed to meet the specific needs of people in the communities it serves. Seven acute care hospitals located in Knoxville and surrounding areas comprise the foundation of the health system. The hospitals offer comprehensive care, including emergency care, specialty services, and a full range of diagnostics and treatment, provided by board-certified medical staffs. Three Covenant Health hospitals - Fort Sanders Regional, Methodist, and Parkwest Medical Centers, were named among the top 10 hospitals in Tennessee in 2013 by U.S. News and World Report, recognizing excellence in both overall and specialty care. Several hospitals have been recognized for clinical accomplishments by VHA, Inc., a cooperative of non-profit healthcare organizations. In 2013, the community celebrated the opening of the new 50-bed Roane County Medical Center in Harriman. The new hospital brings expanded medical services and sophisticated technology to the people of Roane County. In addition to comprehensive hospital services, Covenant Health provides: * Innovative cancer care and technologies to deliver radiation therapy and other cancer treatment in Knox, Sevier, Anderson and Hamblen counties. * Nationally recognized care for patients suffering from physical disabilities, stroke and traumatic brain injury at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center's Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center. * Affiliated physician clinics throughout the region which offers convenient access to primary and specialty care. * Rehabilitation services including physical therapy, speech therapy, sports medicine, and specialized therapy such as hand therapy and vestibular (balance) rehabilitation. RACING AGAINST TIME AND DISTANCE IN STROKE CARE With Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center's "tele-stroke" robot, East Tennessee stroke patients can benefit from early consultation with the hospital's stroke experts - regardless of where patients are located across the region. Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center ("Fort Sanders") introduced robots to the region in 2012. The InTouch R7 robot is a mobile communications platform that enables stroke patients to receive consults from Fort Sanders' neurologists via its video screen "face." The robot allows neurologist's availability to patients in outlying areas 24 hours a day. Covenant Health stationed its first two robots in the emergency departments at Parkwest Medical Center in Knoxville and LeConte Medical Center in Sevierville. The telestroke network allows physicians in surrounding hospitals to use live Web video streaming to consult with Fort Sanders Stroke Center neurologists as soon as a patient arrives at the community hospital. The neurologist can remotely review patient information and examine and talk with the patient, family members and local clinicians to help determine the best course of treatment, all at the patient's bedside. A STROKE CENTER OF EXCELLENCE Fort Sanders is a Stroke Center of Excellence, and the only facility in the region to hold both a Comprehensive Stroke Center certification from the Joint Commission and three separate stroke accreditations from the Commission on the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. Fort Sanders has a team of experts available to treat patients 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The stroke team includes emergency room physicians, neurologists, neurosurgeons, neurointerventional radiologists, nurses and therapists who quickly diagnose patients and use the most technically advanced methods available to remove clots, repair broken arteries that cause strokes, and restore blood flow to the brain.
		TAVR - CHARTING NEW DIRECTIONS IN HEART CARE In 2012, Parkwest Medical Center ("Parkwest") performed its first transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedure. Parkwest is the first hospital in the area to offer TAVR as a minimally invasive procedure to help men and women with the progressive, life-threatening condition known as aortic stenosis. Within the first year, the TAVR team of physicians from Parkwest and Fort Sanders Regional Medical Centers performed surgery for nearly 60 people who were deemed inoperable for traditional open-heart surgery. The patients received new heart valves via a catheter tube inserted either into the femoral artery or through the rib cage. Recovery is markedly shorter than traditional open-heart surgery. In most cases the patients were discharged from the hospital within three to six days. An important aspect of TAVR is its multi-disciplinary approach. The TAVR team includes physicians specializing in cardiovascular and cardiothoracic surgery, interventional cardiology, and cardiac anesthesiology, as well as nurses and technicians with specialized training. The operating room used for TAVR procedures at Parkwest is also multi-disciplinary in design. The $2.6 million hybrid operating room combines the resources of a cardiac catheterization lab and an operating room, including the imaging equipment needed for minimally invasive procedures. ACHIEVING QUALITY THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS WITH PHYSICIANS Overall, Covenant Health's desire for alignment is driven by the need to fully evolve as a healthcare system. In pursuing its goal of outstanding quality and seamless continuum of care, Covenant Medical Management, Inc. (CMM), a for-profit entity in the Covenant Health system, has developed models with physicians that include both employment and joint ventures. CMM provides practice management services and support to over 120 primary care and specialty physicians in more than 60 practices in East Tennessee. CMM recently added Southern Medical Group and Family Care Specialists to its employed physician groups that include: * Cardiology Associates of East Tennessee * Crossville Medical Group * Fort Sanders Women's Specialists * Tennessee Brain and Spine CMM also acquired a new, separate corporation, East Tennessee Cardiovascular Surgery Group, in 2012. Prior to joining the Covenant Health system, the surgeons in this practice served as the primary cardiac surgeons for Fort Sanders Regional, Methodist, and Parkwest Medical Centers and worked in the system's Valve Centers and TAVR program. BEHAVIORAL HEALTH - A COMMITMENT TO ESSENTIAL SERVICES In 2012, Peninsula, a division of Parkwest Medical Center, faced an unprecedented challenge: Lakeshore, a state-funded mental health institute, would be closing its doors for good, and the majority of patients would funnel into Peninsula Hospital. The closing was a strategic move by the state Department of Mental Health to follow the national trend of moving behavioral health toward community-based care and away from state-funded care. With a multi-professional team made up of experienced people from across the continuum of mental health care, Peninsula laid out a plan to accommodate the influx of hospital admissions, reduce costs, and improve the quality of care for mental health patients. The team was challenged by not only having more patients, but patients with serious and complex mental disorders. Changes in staffing and processes helped create a smooth admission process and improvement of service. On average, Peninsula serves about a dozen more inpatients per day since Lakeshore closed. Even with the additional volume, Peninsula has been able to increase its customer satisfaction score and maintain or improve its performance in safety quality measures. Many of the changes which resulted in taking the patients from Lakeshore translated to better service. For example, a process was developed to assess and enroll the patients in CoverRX, the state-funded program for prescription coverage. Patients have benefited by increased collaborative efforts within the community such as regular meetings with a community providers group including representatives from local law enforcement, hospital emergency departments, mobile crisis, and a state mental health facility. The group works on the continuum of services for behavioral health patients in the area. Peninsula participates in the Crisis Intervention Training (CIT) for officers from the surrounding areas' police and sheriff's offices. The training facilitates understanding about mental illness, and when that happens, patients benefit. A partnership with the State of Tennessee brought improvements to the community based care of mental health patients, such as transportation and medications. As a result, more outpatients are keeping their first appointments, and there are a lower number of readmissions. In addition to the 155-bed inpatient psychiatric hospital in Blount County, Peninsula also has outpatient facilities in Knox, Blount, Loudon and Sevier counties. SETTING THE STANDARD FOR TECHNOLOGY The recently enacted American Recovery and Reinvestment Act includes incentives and penalties designed to accelerate our nation's adoption and "meaningful use" of electronic health records, ("EHRs"). The implementation of meaningful use initiatives is changing the way healthcare is delivered not only at Covenant Health, but also across Tennessee, and throughout the U.S. With widespread adoption, EHRs can: * make a patient's current health information available in a single, secure, shared record, * provide real-time decision support designed to hardwire best practices and reduce care variability, * reduce paperwork, duplicate testing and other inefficiencies. Meaningful Use provides the technology infrastructure and electronic applications to connect care settings, reduce costs, improve efficiency and standardize quality. From 2015 forward, for every year that meaningful use requirements are not met, providers will receive penalties in the form of reduced reimbursement. At Covenant Health, interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary operational teams have been involved in developing and implementing applications and processes related to the main components of Meaningful Use: * E-prescription writing, and computerized patient order entry, * Interoperability, or exchanging key clinical information among providers and patients, * Automated quality reporting. Through Meaningful Use initiatives Covenant Health will transform the way it delivers care by improving patient outcomes, clinical quality, patient safety and organizational effectiveness. Covenant Health has installed a record number of applications related to Meaningful Use. Seven initiatives ranging from admission databases and medication reconciliation (important for patient safety) to computerized patient order entry and physician practice management software took place in 2012 and continued in 2013. The successful installation of multiple applications in a one-year period is unprecedented in the IT world. Quality assurance processes are in place to ensure delivery of the best applications and processes for patient care, clinical quality, and patient safety.
		"MOST WIRED" Hospitals & Health Networks magazine, the journal of the American Hospital Association, has named Covenant Health among the nation's Most Wired healthcare organizations in the 15th annual Most Wired Survey and Benchmarking Study. It is the 10th time that Covenant Health has been named to the Most Wired list. Although Covenant has been named among the nation's Most Wired many times, the health systems that made the list in recent years have had to meet the demands of a more stringent analytic structure. The Most Wired survey includes questions about IT initiatives that support Meaningful Use requirements. It measures IT achievements in four focus sections: infrastructure, business and administrative management, clinical quality and safety (hospital inpatient/outpatient) and clinical integration (ambulatory/physician/community). Participating organizations must meet specific criteria for each section in order to be named "Most Wired." Most Wired surveys were completed by 659 healthcare organizations representing 1,713 hospitals, or roughly 30 percent of all U.S. hospitals. PHILANTHROPY TURNS CHALLENGE INTO OPPORTUNITY The Covenant Health Office of Philanthropy coordinates the philanthropic contributions of individuals and businesses throughout East Tennessee and beyond in support of health care in the region. Fund raising efforts are led by volunteer boards and staff at four foundations: Fort Sanders Foundation, Methodist Medical Center Foundation, Morristown- Hamblen Hospital Foundation, and Thompson Cancer Survival Center Foundation. When Fort Sanders Health Systems created its first fund raising office, Fort Sanders Foundation, in the mid-1970s to raise funds to support Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, it was a progressive move for a health care provider. Fund raising was not a need, but more in the category of 'nice to have.' This status has changed in today's era of healthcare reform. Financial resources have tightened and hospitals look to the community for charitable contributions that are now very much in the 'need to have' category if they are to continue to meet the healthcare needs of the people of East Tennessee. During the past year these foundations received contributions of approximately $3.7 million to help provide new equipment and facilities at the hospitals, staff training and patient care programs. While the Office of Philanthropy staff coordinates community events and fund raisers, local community leadership and involvement is critical to fund raising success. In an effort to expand the cadre of informed volunteer leaders in the community, the Office of Philanthropy launched a new education program this year, Covenant Answers: A Healthcare Leadership Academy. Inaugural Academy participants included representatives from the boards of Covenant Health, and Fort Sanders and TCSC foundations. Future Leadership Academy classes will include business and community representatives from throughout Covenant Health's service area. Over a five-month period, class members attended half-day sessions at five Covenant hospitals, which included behind-the-scenes tours and hands-on access to the latest technologies and treatments. Participants discussed the challenges of the current health care environment with Covenant physicians and clinicians, heard firsthand from patients whose recovery hinged on the excellent care provided at our hospitals, and even tried their hands at using adaptive rehab equipment and maneuvering a surgical robot. IMPROVING HEALTH BEYOND HOSPITAL WALLS One of the greatest challenges facing a healthcare organization is not only caring for the patients and families who receive direct services, but making a positive impact in the health of the surrounding community. That is the mission of Covenant Health: reaching beyond hospital walls to improve the quality of life through better health. In all the communities Covenant Health serves, local initiatives and partnerships create opportunities to interact with people of all ages and encourage healthier lifestyles. * In Knoxville more than 7,000 people participated in the annual Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon, which attracted local runners and hand cyclists, as well as competitors from throughout the U.S. and other countries. * The Covenant Health Biggest Winner Weight Loss Challenge is a friendly competition that encourages East Tennesseans to get off the couch and get moving for a fit and healthy lifestyle. Team members train together for five months, with the goal of crossing the finish line in Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon events. Participants challenge other East Tennesseans to start a health journey that will change their lives for the better. * Some of the funds raised through the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon were contributed to The Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center's Innovative Recreation Cooperative, a collaboration of groups and individuals who help disabled persons enjoy leisure and recreation activities such as water skiing and cycling. * The Covenant Kids Run attracted over 1,000 children who participated in a "marathon" of activities over a period of several weeks, culminating in a run to Neyland Stadium on the day before the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon. * Covenant Health was the fitness sponsor of the Dogwood Arts Festival, held annually in April. Fitness activities included several outdoor walks, "Bikes and Blooms" bike rides on local Dogwood trails, and a Dogwood Mile run and Kids Race held in downtown Knoxville. * Covenant HomeCare Hospice helps children grieving the loss of a loved one through Katerpillar Kids Camp, offered with the support of Variety-The Children's Charity. The camp is staffed by health system volunteers and helps children in grades 1-12 express their feelings in a supportive environment while enjoying camp activities. * Morristown-Hamblen's Wellness of Women is dedicated to improving the lives of area women and their families. The program sponsors events such as an annual Girls Night Out, which offers free health screenings and encourages women to have fun while learning to stay healthy. UNCOMPENSATED CARE One of the most tangible expressions of the charitable purpose of Covenant Health is providing care to people in need. As a not-for-profit system, Covenant Health provides medically necessary services to people with limited resources. Covenant Health actively participates in the state's TennCare program, and collaborates with other area providers to identify and support efforts to make community healthcare resources available for those in need. The Community Benefit totals for uncompensated care are included on the Forms 990 for the individual Covenant Health hospitals.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11	Part VI, Section B, Line 11: Covenant Health is a large, integrated health system which files twelve Forms 990. Methodist Medical Center is one of those twelve entitites. Annually, at the September Finance Committee meeting, one of the twelve 990s is selected (a different entity each year) for distribution to each member of the Committee. Management then reviews in detail each of the Form 990 schedules and describes variances between entities, if any. The remaining eleven Forms are made available for review by any committee member. The same presentation is made to the Covenant Health Board of Directors at the October meeting. All twelve Forms 990 are then made available to all Board members for their review throughout the month of October.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c	Board members, officers and employees are required to adhere to rules and policies regarding conflicts of interest. Covenant Health, the parent company of the organization, distributes a Board-approved Code of Conduct to all employees. The Code covers among other subjects, conflicts of interest. Additionally managers are required to complete and sign an annual management certification that addresses conflicts of interest. Board members' conflicts of interests are dealt with in the corporate bylaws and Board members are required to complete and sign a conflict of interest questionnaire on an annual basis. The Integrity Compliance Office maintains records that contain conflict of interest information obtained from Board members, officers and employees. These records are available to be queried prior to engaging in business transactions. The Integrity Compliance Officer initially reviews all conflict of interest data. Based on this information, the officer determines what conflicts of interest exist at that point in time. Between times when surveys are collected Board members are expected to disclose any new conflicts that have arisen that affect pending Board decisions. As well, managers and other employees are expected to report conflicts to the Integrity Compliance Officer as they arise. Depending on the nature of the conflict and the circumstances surrounding the conflict and transaction, the Integrity Compliance Officer, Senior Leadership, or the Board of Directors may review the conflict of interest. Where appropriate these bodies may also consult legal counsel. Restrictions imposed on persons with a conflict of interest are determined on a case by case basis. For Covenant Health employees, the Integrity Compliance Officer, in conjunction with Executive Leadership determines how to appropriately handle the conflict. In any conflict involving a Board member, such member is expected to excuse himself or herself from voting on matters that give rise to the conflict.
