        <BadDebtFootnote>Part III, Line 4: Costing methodology used to determine bad debt expense at cost and estimated amount attributable to patients eligible under the charity care policy: The methodology assumes that the percentage of charity care to total revenue can be applied to the amount of bad debt expense for the year.The organization accounts for discounts and payments on patient accounts in determining bad debt expense as follows: Discounts and payments are offset against bad debt expense.Method the organization uses to determine the amount that reasonably could be attributable to patients who likely would qualify for financial assistance under the charity care policy, if sufficient information had been available to make a determination of their eligibility: The Hospital uses the average charity care write-off per charity case multiplied by the number of cases not approved due to lack of documentation.Footnote to the organization's financial statements that describes bad debt expense: Accounts receivable, patients are reported at net realizable value. Accounts are written off when they are determined to be uncollectible based upon management's assessment of individual accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based upon a periodic review of the accounts receivable aging, payor classifications and application of historical write-off percentages.</BadDebtFootnote>
        <ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit>Part III, Line 8: Costing methodology used to determine the Medicare allowable costs reported in the organization's Medicare Cost Report: Medicare allowable costs equal Medicare revenue adjusted for the Hospital total ratio of patient care costs to charges due to the fact that Medicare pays full charges in Maryland.Shortfall treated as community benefit: In the State of Maryland, Medicare pays full charges. There is no shortfall that should be treated as a community benefit.</ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit>
        <GeneralExplanation>For the last 30 years, Maryland hospitals have met their community benefit obligations in a unique manner that builds the costs of uncompensated care--charity care and patient bad debt--and graduate medical education into the rates that hospitals are reimbursed by all payors. The system is based in federal and state law and benefits all Maryland residents, including those in need of financial assistance to pay their hospital bills.Maryland is the only state in which all payors--governmentally-insured, commerically--insured, or self pay--are charged the same price for services at any given hospital.Under this system, Maryland hospitals are regulated by a stage agency--the Health Services Cost Review Commission (HSCRC)--that is required to:1) Publicly disclose information on the cost and financial position of hospitals;2) Review and approve hospital rates;3) Collect information detailing transactions between hospitals and firms with which their trustees have a financial interest; and,4) Maintain the solvency of efficient and effective hospitals.Since 2000, the rate setting commission has had its own framework for reporting hospitals' community benefits and issuing a report annually regarding hospitals' community benefit totals. That report is available on http://www.hscrc.state.md.us/community_benefits/documents/CBR_FY2007_final_report.pdf.Because of this unique structure, Maryland hospitals' community benefits numbers will not compare with the rest of the nation's hospitals. However, Maryland hospitals meet or exceed the community benefit standard established by the IRS in 1969. Additional detail illustrating this can be found within this Schedule H report.Maryland's regulatory system creates a unique process for hospital payment that differs from the rest of the nation. The Health Services Cost Review Commission (HSCRC) determines payment through a rate-setting process and all payors, including governmental payors, pay the same amount for the same services delivered at the same hospital. Maryland's unique all-payor system includes a method for referencing Uncompensated Care in each payors' rates, which does not enable Maryland hospitals to breakout any offsetting revenue related to Uncompensated Care. Community benefits expenses are equal to Medicaid revenues in Maryland, as such, the net effect is zero. The exception to this is the impact on the hospital of its share of the Medicaid assessment. In recent years, the state of Maryland has closed fiscal gaps in the state Medicaid budget by assessing hospitals through the rate-setting system.</GeneralExplanation>
        <NeedsAssessment>Part VI, Line 2: Improving the health of our community requires collaboration among community members and active participation in the planning and implementation of health programs. To identify community need, Union Hospital works with community leaders from local service providers such as the Cecil County Health Department. Union Hospital participates in the needs assessment process driven by the local Health Department and in FY09, we provided the funding for the Cecil County Community Health Survey.The Cecil County Community Health Survey conducted in the spring of 2009 collected health data that will be used to develop programs to address the priority health problems identified by the county's community task forces. The data collected through the survey are specific to the county and represent a large enough sample size that allows for the generalization of the results to the county population. The first health survey conducted in October 1999 provided data that was used to determine baseline information about the county's most pressing health problems. The community task forces used the results to review their progress and identify new health issues that were not evident or could not be measured before.In 2000, following this review process, existing task forces developed new goals and objectives, and new task forces were formed to address the new priority health problems. The second health survey conducted in 2004 provided data that was used to gauge the health of the county five years after the baseline survey. This survey's results were used by the county task forces to develop new goals and objectives as well as measure changes in the county's health status from 1999 to 2004. The Community Health Advisory Committee (CHAC), which includes Union Hospital staff and members of our medical staff, also used these results to develop the Cecil County Community Health Plan for 2010, which is an assessment of the county's health problems, and the identification of priorities and strategies to address these problems. Each task force developed its own goals and objectives, which were then combined to represent the goals and objectives of CHAC. The five task forces are: Accidents, Alcohol and Drugs, Cancer, Lifestyles and Nutrition, and Tobacco. Each task force developed questions for the 2009 survey that would meet their need for information.</NeedsAssessment>
        <PatientEducationAssistance>Part VI, Line 3: Union Hospital of Cecil County utilizes a Financial Assistance (Charity Care) policy to ensure that Hospital staff follow a consistent and equitable process in granting charity/financial assistance to appropriate patients while respecting the individual's dignity. The policy is in agreement with the established Maryland State Financial Assistance Guidelines regarding charity care.The policy describes the application process for the Financial Assistance Program, the information required to verify income and assets, the timeline for application review, and the tiered adjustments based on the Federal Poverty Guidelines.The application for Financial Assistance is available to all underinsured and uninsured patients of Union Hospital.

        <Explanation>Board members are required to annually disclose any potential conflict of interest. The organization's CEO reviews the signed annual disclosures. The Corporate Compliance Officer is made aware of any disclosed conflict, investigates the conflict, and reports back to the Board of Directors. The Board considers the facts and makes an appropriate finding. Any board member with a conflict must abstain from Board deliberations and voting on the matter. All vice presidents annually receive a list of the individuals under their supervision who may have a potential conflict of interest. The list is comprised of all managers, certain professional staff who may have responsibility negotiating with vendors, and any other persons that hospital executives deem appropriate. Each Vice President reviews the conflict of interest policy with their designated employees, and each employee is required to sign a form stipulating whether or not they have a conflict. The forms are reviewed by the Vice President of Human Resources. If a conflict is noted, it is brought to the attention of the appropriate Vice President and the CEO to determine whether operational changes need to occur because of the potential conflict.</Explanation>

The remainder of the issue may qualify for an exception to rebate but it is too early to make that conclusion.</Explanation>
