        <Explanation>PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F): Total bad debt expense removed from the denominator prior to the percentage calculation = 5,890,805. PART I, LINE 7: The organization used a cost-to charge ratio for lines 7a, 7b, and 7c. The cost-to-charge ratio was derived from Worksheet 2, Ratio of Patient Care Cost-to-Charges. The information for lines 7e through 7i was derived from information in the general ledger and other financial data related specifically to the various types of community benefits. PART III, LINE 4: Patient accounts receivable are due in full when billed. Accounts are considered delinquent and subsequently written-off as bad debts based on individual credit evaluation and specific circumstances of the account. Bad debt expense at cost was calculated using the cost to charge ratio calculted in worksheet #2 multiplied by bad debt expense reported on the audited financial statements. The Patient Business Service team assists all potentially eligible patients with the application process for financial assistance programs (government and internally sponsored). If the application is completed and the patient is eligible the account balance is not written off to bad debt, instead it is recorded as a charity care adjustment. If the application is not completed we have no way to determine patient eligibility for charity care classification, and the account is written off as bad debt. At this time community benefit does not include any bad debt amounts. PART III, LINE 8: Approximately 26% of net patient service revenues is from participation in the Medicare program, thus providing Medicare services promotes access to healthcare services to a significant portion of the community population. Line 6: Allowable costs as reported on the Medical Center of the Rockies 2010 Cost Report. PART III, LINE 9B: Patient provides documentation based on Colorado Indigent Care guidelines, reviewed by Financial Assistance Committee (FAC), cross functional team chaired by Director Patient Financial Services. Upon approval or denial of the request for charitable aid from the FAC, the patient will be advised of the decision. The bill is partially or totally adjusted as approved by the FAC, no further collection process with the patient. For any portion not adjusted off, the proper sequence of attempts to collect are followed. Final assignment of the bill is to a collection agency.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>NEEDS ASSESSMENT: We assess the health care needs of the communities we serve in several ways. First, we complete our own Community Health Survey once every three years. This is a blinded survey sent out to 5,000 residents of the communities we serve. This survey is meant to assess the needs of our community and priorities for health prevention, intervention and treatment for the people we serve. Along side of this is an extensive review and assessment of other health data to examine the trends and impact and burden of disease. We partner with the Health District of Northern Larimer County and the Larimer Department of Health and Environment to examine the data and develop action plans to address the needs with high morbidity and mortality rates. We utilize hospital data, state and local health dept. data, the health district survey, and BRFSS data to examine the health issues that affect the people we serve. We utilize the assistance of Epidemiologist to insure correct assumptions based upon the data we review. Our marketing department will also administer specific surveys related to services we offer in the community to see if needs are being addressed. We also administer focus groups for specific areas of focus to ensure we are meeting health needs. PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE: There is documentation in a billing brochure given to patient/families, self-pay inpatients are screened by the Financial Assistance teams, the monthly statements mention a contact if assistance is needed, and if a patient/family call Patient Billing and inform us they need assistance they are put through the screening process. COMMUNITY INFORMATION: Poudre Valley Health System (PVHS) is a locally owned, private, non-profit organization with a strong Vision: to provide world class healthcare. Based in Northern Colorado, PVHS provides evidence-based healthcare and wellness services and products in Colorado, Nebraska and Wyoming, across a service area covering more than 50,000 square miles. PVHS is a regional medical hub that includes Poudre Valley Hospital, Medical Center of the Rockies, Mountain Crest Behavioral Health Center, Poudre Valley Medical Group, and dozens of associated clinics and outpatient services. The organization's Mission is to be an integrated, independent, non-profit organization providing innovative, comprehensive care of the highest quality while exceeding expectations of the communities we serve. PROMOTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH: We have implemented a multitude of programs that address the health of our community involving all age groups and focus on what an individual can do to improve his/her health. Also we give dollars to other entities that also work to improve the health of our community. Examples are: primary care for children, activity programs for developmentally disabled adults, obesity prevention, feeding programs for low income, and mental health services for the underserved. AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM: All the services we offer are available to anyone that uses any of our facilities in the health system.

        <ReturnReference>SCH. J, PART I, QUESTIONs 1A and 1B</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Club Dues: The health system expects the hospital management to participate in community life and therefore the system pays social club dues for specific members of the senior management group. The club dues are added to the senior management's w-2 on an annual basis. Travel For Companions: Per system policy, travel for companions is not reimbursable. For convenience of travel arrangements for the annual board member retreat, Poudre Valley Health Care, Inc pays for one companion per board member or invited employee. Each board member receives a 1099 for the related reimbursement. Each employee receives additional compensation on their annual W-2. Gross Ups: At year end, special checks are created to add specific items to employee's W-2 wages. These specific items include but are not limited to country club dues, personal use of cell phones, personal use of laptop computers, spousal travel for the annual board retreat, and imputed income on life insurance policies.</Explanation>
