      <Description>From the Mercy sisters who founded our hospital in 1896 as a 10-bed hospital to the 367-bed regional care facility and post disaster 60 bed temporary hospital, Mercy Hospital Joplin continues its mission of providing healthcare to the four-state region with compassion and a deep desire to help the people in our community. We serve all persons in the community on a non-discriminatory basis and operate a 24-hour emergency room 365 days per year that is open to all persons regardless of ability to pay. Mercy Hospital Joplin participates in Medicare and Medicaid and has an active charity care program. From diagnostics and treatment to rehabilitation and prevention, we offer the most experienced and sophisticated cardiovascular services in this region. Heart care at Mercy Hospital Joplin begins with a focus on healthy living strategies and specialized programs, and extends to the most advanced technologies and treatments. Our cardiologists and cardiovascular surgeons work together as a team to identify the best possible treatment for every patient. As we celebrate the 30th anniversary of Mercy Hospital Joplin's Cardiovascular Program, we remember the pioneering physicians who established the program - the first of its kind in the four-state area. But we also celebrate all of the patients whose hearts and lives have been restored through the work of our dedicated cardiology team.</Description>

        <Description>Mercy Hospital Joplin's Center for Cancer Care offers you and your family the most extensive cancer program in the 19-county area surrounding Joplin. We realized the importance of complete cancer care back in 1979. Since that time, we have continued to invest in the latest technology, used by our experienced team of medical and radiation oncologists, pathologists, radiologists, nurses, therapists and allied health professionals. Though the May 22, 2011 tornado destroyed access to many of our services and on-campus facilities, we still offer the extensive services you need. We direct your care as needed through our partnerships with other facilities. Technology is just one tool in your fight against cancer. Your prognosis improves dramatically when your treatment includes support for your body, mind and spirit. That's why we offer the best nursing care, nutritional counseling and support groups. We also understand how the impact of cancer extends beyond the patient. That's why our entire staff remains sensitive to the needs of family and friends.</Description>

        <Description>Mercy Hospital Joplin treats severe traumas around the clock in one of the state's most advanced, and most active, trauma centers. Our trauma center is currently serving as a Level III trauma center, and will move to a Level II in Spring 2012 with the opening of our new component hospital. During FY2011 the emergency department saw 36,955 patients. Mercy Hospital Joplin is committed to providing access to rapid critical care throughout the community. With two MedFlight helicopter bases strategically located across the region, we're able to quickly reach patients over the four-state area within 19 counties. The crew of 25 members proudly operates this valuable service while maintaining an impeccable safety record and logging 627 flights during the year.</Description>

        <Explanation>THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES FOR INCOME ARE THE BASIS FOR DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY CARE DISCOUNTS. FOR EXAMPLE, INDIVIDUALS WITH INCOMES BELOW 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE CARE. INDIVIDUALS WITH INCOMES GREATER THAN 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR CARE AT DISCOUNTED RATES DEPENDING ON THEIR INCOME LEVEL AND/OR THE AMOUNT DUE TO THE HOSPITAL. CHARITY/MEDICAL INDIGENCE PARAMETERS CHARITY/MEDICAL INDIGENCE PARAMETERS ARE BASED ON FEDERAL INCOME POVERTY (FPL) GUIDELINES WHICH ARE UPDATED ANNUALLY. GENERALLY, NO PATIENT'S FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY SHALL BE GREATER THAN 10% OF THE HOUSEHOLD ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME, SUBJECT TO AN ASSET TEST. THIS DETERMINATION SHALL BE MADE PER EPISODE OF CARE WHERE INCOME EXCEEDS 300% OF THE FPL, AND, WHEN WARRANTED, IN AGGREGATE FOR MULTIPLE EPISODES. THE PARAMETERS WILL BE REVIEWED ANNUALLY WITH THE FPL UPDATES. THE REVIEW WILL INCLUDE ASSESSMENT OF THE SLIDING SCALE RANGES, MAXIMUM OUT OF POCKETS, AND OVERALL IMPACT TO THE FACILITIES AND SYSTEM. REVISIONS WILL BE COMPLETED AS WARRANTED. PART I, LINE 6A N/A PART I, LINE 7G N/A PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN F OUR TOTAL EXPENSE FROM FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A) WAS $214,213,234. THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED IN THIS AMOUNT WAS $15,456,461. THIS LEFT A TOTAL EXPENSE OF $198,756,773 FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING LINE 7, COLUMN (F). PART I, LINE 7 N/A PART III, LINE 4: THE TEXT OF THE FOOTNOTE THAT IS INCLUDED IN MERCY HEALTH AND SUBSIDIARIES AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT DESCRIBES BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS AS FOLLOWS: "PATIENT ACCOUNTS THAT ARE UNCOLLECTED, INCLUDING THOSE PLACED WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES, ARE INITIALLY CHARGED AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH COLLECTIONS POLICIES OF THE HEALTH SYSTEMS AND, IN CERTAIN CASES, ARE RECLASSIFIED TO CHARITY CARE IF DEEMED TO OTHERWISE MEET THE HEALTH SYSTEM'S CHARITY CARE POLICY. THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES IS BASED ON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF HISTORICAL AND EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TRENDS IN HEALTHCARE COVERAGE, AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. PERIODICALLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, MANAGEMENT ASSESS THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES BASED UPON THE PAYOR COMPOSITION AND AGING OF RECEIVABLES AS OF THE REPORTING DATE WITH CONSIDERATION OF THE HISTORICAL PAYMENT AND WRITE-OFF EXPERIENCE BY PAYOR CATEGORY. THE RESULTS OF THESE REVIEWS ARE THEN USED TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE PROVISION FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES TO ESTABLISH AN APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE RECEIVABLES. AFTER SATISFACTION OF AMOUNTS DUE FROM INSURANCE, THE HEALTH SYSTEM FOLLOWS ESTABLISHED GUIDELINES FOR PLACING PAST-DUE BALANCES WITH COLLECTION AGENCIES." TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE, AT COST, BAD DEBT EXPENSE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS WAS MULTIPLIED BY A RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES. THE RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES USED WAS BASED ON DETAILED COST ACCOUNTING, WHERE AVAILABLE. WHERE COST ACCOUNTING IS NOT AVAILABLE, COST REPORT COST TO CHARGE RATIOS WERE UTILIZED. THE FILING ORGANIZATION DETERMINED THAT THE ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE (AT COST) ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE POLICY IS $0. ALTHOUGH THE CHARITY CARE POLICY REQUIRES THE PARTICIPATION OF THE PATIENT REQUESTING ASSISTANCE, WE HAVE A PROCESS UNDER PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY (REFER TO DISCLOSURE FOR PART III, #9B) TO ADDRESS ACCOUNTS FOR PATIENTS WHO DO NOT PROVIDE THE INFORMATION. WE BELIEVE THAT OUR CHARITY POLICY IS COMPREHENSIVE ENOUGH TO CAPTURE ALMOST ALL PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE. PART III, LINE 8: IT IS THE POSITION OF MERCY HOSPITAL JOPLIN THAT 100% OF ANY SHORTFALL SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THIS AMOUNT REPRESENTS COST OF PROVIDING SERVICES THAT REMAIN UNCOMPENSATED TO THE PROVIDER. THE UNREIMBURSED COSTS OF MEDICARE IS CALCULATED BY THE GROSS CHARGES NET OF THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO LESS ANY PAYMENTS, DEDUCTIONS OR REIMBURSEMENTS USING THE ANNUAL MEDICARE COST REPORT (CMS FORM 2552-96). PART III, LINE 9B: MERCY HOSPITAL JOPLIN'S ("MERCY") DEBT COLLECTION POLICY PROVIDES THAT MERCY WILL PERFORM A REASONABLE REVIEW OF EACH INPATIENT ACCOUNT BEFORE TURNING AN ACCOUNT OVER TO A THIRD-PARTY COLLECTION AGENT AND PRIOR TO INSTITUTING ANY LEGAL ACTION FOR NON-PAYMENT, TO ASSURE THAT THE PATIENT AND PATIENT GUARANTOR ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR ANY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (E.G., MEDICAID) AND DO NOT QUALIFY FOR COVERAGE THROUGH MERCY'S COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE POLICY. AFTER HAVING BEEN TURNED OVER TO A THIRD-PARTY COLLECTION AGENT, ANY PATIENT ACCOUNT THAT IS SUBSEQUENTLY DETERMINED TO HAVE MET THE MERCY HOSPITAL COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE POLICY IS REQUIRED TO BE RETURNED IMMEDIATELY BY THE THIRD-PARTY COLLECTION AGENT TO MERCY FOR APPROPRIATE FOLLOW-UP. MERCY REQUIRES ITS THIRD-PARTY COLLECTION AGENTS TO INCLUDE A MESSAGE ON ALL STATEMENTS INDICATING THAT IF A PATIENT OR PATIENT GUARANTOR MEETS CERTAIN STIPULATED INCOME REQUIREMENTS, THE PATIENT OR PATIENT GUARANTOR MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. MERCY UTILIZES THE "SEARCH AMERICA" TOOL TO ENHANCE THE ABILITY TO DETERMINE CHARITY QUALIFICATION. PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY WILL BE GRANTED IN SITUATIONS WHERE MERCY HAS BEEN UNABLE TO OBTAIN INFORMATION FROM PATIENTS OR THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IS NOT COMPLETE ENOUGH TO MAKE A CHARITY DETERMINATION. MERCY UTILIZES PRESUMPTIVE CHARITY PRIOR TO BAD DEBT PLACEMENT FOR CHARITY ADJUSTMENTS IN EXCESS OF $10,000. IN THESE CASES, MERCY UTILIZES THE SEARCH AMERICA REPORT STATUS OF "PROBABLE CHARITY" AS THE BASIS FOR ASSIGNING THE CHARITY LEVEL. MERCY WILL PURSUE APPROPRIATE MEANS IN THE COLLECTION OF DELINQUENT ACCOUNTS FROM PATIENTS WITH AN ESTABLISHED ABILITY TO PAY OR AN UNWILLINGNESS TO COOPERATE IN VALIDATING ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THESE APPROPRIATE MEANS MAY INCLUDE LEGAL ACTION CONSISTENT WITH MERCY MISSION AND VALUES. ADDITIONALLY THEY MAY INCLUDE LIENS UPON REAL PROPERTY AND REASONABLE WAGE GARNISHMENTS. LEGAL ACTIONS WILL GENERALLY NOT INCLUDE BANK GARNISHMENT, REPOSSESSION OF ASSETS OR FORECLOSURES TO ENFORCE SATISFACTION OF A LIEN. MERCY HAS POLICIES AND PROCEDURES ESTABLISHED TO ADDRESS THE INITIATION OF LEGAL ACTION AND ANNUALLY REVIEWS COMPLIANCE WITH ALL POLICIES. ANNUALLY REVIEWS COMPLIANCE WITH ALL POLICIES. NEEDS ASSESSMENT MERCY HOSPITAL JOPLIN'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLAN IS BASED ON OUR UNDERSTANDING OF UNIQUE COMMUNITIES' NEEDS DERIVED FROM COLLABORATIVE NEEDS ASSESSMENTS, FOCUS GROUPS, AND SURVEYS CONDUCTED WITH OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THE JASPER AND NEWTON COUNTIES COMMUNITY HEALTH COLLABORATIVE (CHC) WAS FORMED IN 1999 AS A COLLABORATIVE ENTITY OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE PROVIDERS WITH A GENERAL DESIRE TO REDUCE DUPLICATION OF EFFORTS, THEREBY PROVIDING A MORE EFFICIENT USE OF LIMITED RESOURCES.
