        <Identifier>Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:</Identifier>
        <ReturnReference>Part X:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>The Hospital is a not-for-profit corporation and is tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Tax-exempt organizations could be required to record an obligation for income taxes as the result of a tax position they have historically taken on various tax exposure items including unrelated business income or tax status. Under guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, assets and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to not meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, based upon the technical merits of the position. Estimated interest and penalties, if applicable, related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of income tax expense. The Hospital has evaluated the position taken on its filed tax returns. The Hospital has concluded no uncertain income tax positions exist at September 30, 2011. The Hospital's tax years from 2008 through 2011 are open and subject to examination.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Part I, Line 7: Based on the IRS Form 990, Schedule H, a worksheet was provided to determine the overall cost to charge ratio that could be used to apply throughout Schedule H of Form 990. Where applicable, the Organization utilized this worksheet to convert charges to costs. The Organization did not use the Worksheet 2 percentage for the IRS Form 990, Schedule H, Worksheet 3, Unreimbursed Medicaid and Other Means Tested Government Programs, or Worksheet 6, Subsidized Health Services, for the Medicaid allowable costs. Instead, the Organization utilized the actual Medicaid filed cost report for the Medicaid allowable costs. Additionally, the Organization used the modified Medicare allowable costs and payments related to these services in regards to the cardiopulmonary community program and psychiatric unit. For our provider based clinics, in this same section we used the actual costs for each clinic. In addition, for its addiction resource center, access health service, and senior psychiatric services, the Organization used the estimated costs calculated based on actual clinic costs estimated from reporting on these centers to the State of Maine.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>Part I, Line 7g: Mid Coast Hospital has clinical services and hospital-owned physician practices. Mid Coast Hospital has included these practices in this section of the 990, Schedule H of subsidized health services if they are operating at a loss. The Hospital has included the following clinical services and hospital-owned physician practices that operate at a loss and the corresponding costs of these practices: neurology practice, OB/GYN practice, pulmonary practice, urology practice, primary care clinic, walk-in clinic, nephrology practice, orthopedics practice, psychiatric department, cardiopulmonary community program, addiction resource center, access health service, senior psychiatric service, and chemical dependency services. The above listed hospital clinical services and hospital-owned physician practices have a community benefit of approximately $3.2 million. In addition, the community benefit does not take into account bad debts, charity care, and contractual adjustments. Thus, this community benefit of approximately $3.2 million is a conservative number that reconciles to the community benefit on the IRS Form 990, Schedule H.</Explanation>

Management considers the age of outstanding balances and past collection efforts in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts and bad debt expense. Accounts deemed uncollectible are charged off against the established allowance.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Part III, Line 8: The Hospital believes all of the clinical areas included in the Form 990, Schedule H should be and are considered a community benefit. Mid Coast Hospital believes that by offering and thus subsidizing these clinical services within the community, the community benefits by having easy access to these services. If these services were not available by Mid Coast Hospital there would be a greater burden on the community and many, if not all, of these services would not be available with such easy access. Based on the IRS Form 990, Schedule H, a worksheet was provided to assist in determining the overall cost-to-charge ratio that could be used to apply throughout the Schedule H of the Form 990 in order to convert charges to costs. Where applicable, we have utilized this worksheet to convert charges to costs. We did not use this worksheet percentage on the calculation of Medicare costs in this section. We used the Medicare allowable costs and payments related to the subsidized health service; and, we utilized the Medicare cost report estimated cost and payment for these services.</Explanation>
