Income Based Criteria	THE MISSION OF DOYLESTOWN HOSPITAL IS TO PROVIDE A RESPONSIVE, HEALING ENVIRONMENT FOR OUR PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES, AND TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR ALL MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY. PROVIDING HEALTHCARE FOR ALL COMMUNITY MEMBERS WAS ONE OF THE PRINCIPLE GOALS OF THE VILLAGE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION (VIA). THE VIA TRADITION OF ENSURING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE FOR ALL COMMUNITY MEMBERS CONTINUES TODAY AT DOYLESTOWN HOSPITAL. NO LONGER SHOULD PATIENTS AVOID SEEKING CARE BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY CANNOT AFFORD IT. DOYLESTOWN HOSPITAL HONORS THIS PROMISE TODAY FOR ALL PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. TO HELP THOSE WHO ARE UNISURED OR UNDERINSURED, DOYLESTOWN HOSPITAL OFFERS THE HEALTHCARE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THIS PROGRAM OFFERS A VARIETY OF ASSISTANCE, COUNSELING AND FINANCING OPTIONS TO HELP EASE THE WORRY ABOUT HEALTHCARE COSTS. EVEN FOR PATIENTS WHO DO NOT QUALIFY FOR FREE HEALTHCARE SERVICES, DOYLESTOWN HOSPITAL PROVIDES OPTIONS TO HELP WITH HEALTHCARE COSTS. IN THESE SITUATIONS, FINANCIAL COUNSELORS HELP TO DETERMINE THE AVAILABLE OPTIONS (FINANCING, SLIDING SCALE AND CHARITY CARE ALLOWANCES TO REDUCE THE PATIENT BALANCE). A VARIETY OF FACTORS AND CRITERIA ARE CONSIDERED: - PATIENT/GUARANTOR HAS NO GOVERNMENTAL OR PRIVATE INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES. - PATIENT/GUARANTOR HAS EXHAUSTED ANY INSURANCE BENEFITS AND HAS BECOME MEDICALLY INDIGENT. - CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE CHANGED THAT CASUED THE PATIENT/GUARANTOR TO NO LONGER HAVE THE MEANS TO PAY AN EXISTING LIABILITY, EITHER CURRENT OR DELINQUENT. - SLIDING SCALE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE DISCOUNTS ARE PROVIDED BASED ON FAMILY SIZE, INCOME LEVEL, BALANCE DUE IN PROPORTION TO INCOME AFTER RECONCILIATION WITH PUBLIC OR PRIVATE INSURERS. - PATIENTS WITH FAMILY INCOME AT OR BELOW 100% OF THE PUBLISHED POVERTY GUIDELINES ARE SCREENED FOR ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAID BASED ON CURRENT STATE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. - PATIENTS WHOSE FAMILY INCOME IS BETWEEN 100% AND 200% OF THE PUBLISHED POVERTY GUIDELINES WILL HAVE BALANCES REDUCED FOR FULL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE (FREE CARE). - PATIENTS WHOSE FAMILY INCOME FALLS BETWEEN 250% AND 1000% OF THE PUBLISHED FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR DISCOUNTED SERVICE ACCORDING TO ANNUAL SLIDING SCALE DISCOUNT MODEL. - THOSE PATIENTS WHO APPEAR ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE BUT THERE IS NO FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FORM ON FILE DUE TO A LACK OF SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION MAY BE GRANTED UP TO A 100% WRITE-OFF OF THE ACCOUNT BALANCE. PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY MAY BE DETERMINED THROUGH THE USE OF AN OUTSIDE SERVICE PROVIDING A HEALTHCARE CREDIT REPORT. PESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY MAY ALSO BE DETERMINED ON THE BASIS OF INDIVIDUAL LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAY INCLUDE: STATE FUNDED PRESCRIPTION PROGRAMS; HOMELESS OR RECEIVING CARE FROM A HOMELESS CLINIC; PARTICIPATION IN WOMEN, INFANTS AND CHILDREN (WIC) PROGRAM; FOOD STAMP ELIGIBILITY; SUBSIDIZED SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM; ELIGIBILITY FOR OTHER STATE OR LOCAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS THAT ARE UNFUNDED; LOW INCOME/SUBSIDIZED HOUSING IS PROVIDED AS VALID ADDRESS; PATIENT IS DECEASED WITH NO KNOWN ESTATE; ELIGIBILITY FOR ANN SILVERMAN COMMUNITY HEALTH CLINIC FREE HEALTHCARE. - UNINSURED PATIENTS IDENTIFIED AS QUALIFYING FOR DISCOUNTED CHARGES FOR MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES WILL BE GRANTED A 50% SELF-PAY DISCOUNT FROM TOTAL CHARGES IF NOT COVERED BY A THIRD PARTY. ADDITIONAL DISCOUNTS MAY BE APPLIED FOR UNDERINSURED PATIENTS AFTER APPLICABLE INSURANCE PAYMENTS AND CO-PAYMENTS ARE RECEIVED. FINANCIAL COUNSELING IS OFFERED AT THE TIME OF SERVICE, IF POSSIBLE, AND ALL UNINSURED PATIENTS RECEIVE INFORMATION REGARDING THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. UNINSURED DISCOUNTS AND SLIDING SCALE ALLOWANCES ARE GRANTED AS APPROPRIATE, AT THE TIME OF SERVICE, OR AFTERWARD. THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS AFFILIATES PREPARE AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE ATTACHED TEXT WAS OBTAINED FROM THE FOOTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE ORGANIZATION. CHARITY CARE THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. UNREIMBURSED CHARGES FROM MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS ON BEHALF OF PATIENTS THAT MEET THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE CRITERIA ARE ALSO CONSIDERED CHARITY CARE. THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE, AND ESTABLISHES RESERVES FOR THESE AMOUNTS. ACCORDINGLY, SUCH AMOUNTS ARE NOT REPORTED AS REVENUE IN THE ACCOMPANYING CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS AND CHANGES IN NET ASSETS. THE AMOUNT OF CHARGES FORGONE FOR SERVICES AND SUPPLIES FURNISHED UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE POLICY ARE SUMMARIZED IN THE FOLLOWING TABLE: YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 2009 UNREIMBURSED CHARGES FROM MEDICAL $ 10,655,521 $ 9,940,370 ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS FREE CARE AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE 3,977,223 1,099,254 ------------- ----------- $ 14,632,744 $ 11,039,624	IncomeBasedCriteria

Bad Debt Footnote	BAD DEBT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED USING THE PROVIDERS' BAD DEBT EXPENSE FROM THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, NET OF ACCOUNTS WRITTEN OFF AT CHARGES, AND NET OF ACCOUNTS SUBSEQUENTLY IDENTIFIED FOR PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY FOR FREE CARE. THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS AFFILIATES PREPARE AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE SYSTEM'S ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS (BAD DEBT EXPENSE) METHODOLOGY AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED ACROSS ALL HOSPITAL AFFILIATES. THE ATTACHED TEXT WAS OBTAINED FROM THE FOOTNOTES TO THE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS AFFILIATES. THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS AFFILIATES PREPARE AND ISSUE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE SYSTEM'S ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS (BAD DEBT EXPENSE) METHODOLOGY AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES ARE CONSISTENTLY APPLIED ACROSS ALL HOSPITAL AFFILIATES. THE ATTACHED TEXT WAS OBTAINED FROM THE FOOTNOTES TO THE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE ORGANIZATION. ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS THE CORPORATION PROVIDES AN ALLOWANCE FOR ESTIMATED LOSSES RESULTING FROM UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE RESERVE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS WHEN MANAGEMENT DETERMINES THAT RECOVERY IS UNLIKELY AND THE HOSPITAL CEASES COLLECTION EFFORTS. DURING THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30 2010, THE CORPORATION REFINED ITS METHODOLOGY FOR ESTIMATING THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS BASED ON AN EVALUATION OF THE CORPORATION'S CURRENT COLLECTION PATTERNS, WHICH REQUIRED A CHANGE IN ESTIMATE OF $1,900,000 TO REDUCE THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2010. AT JUNE 30, 2010, THE CORPORATION ESTIMATED THE REQUIRED ALLOWANCE USING THE NEW BALANCE SHEET BASED RESERVE MODEL, WHICH UTILIZED CURRENT COLLECTION PATTERNS AND HINDSIGHT DATA.	BadDebtFootnote
Shortfall As Community Benefit	MEDICARE COSTS WERE DERIVED USING THE HOSPITAL'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBTS ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS SHOULD BE INCLUDED ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. AS OUTLINED MORE FULLY BELOW THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT THESE SERVICES AND RELATED COSTS PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AND ARE RENDERED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITABLE TAX-EXEMPT PURPOSES AND MISSION IN PROVIDING MEDICALLY NECESSARY HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO ALL INDIVIDUAL'S IN A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MANNER WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, COLOR, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, RELIGION OR ABILITY TO PAY AND CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD PROMULGATED BY THE IRS. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IS THE CURRENT STANDARD FOR A HOSPITAL FOR RECOGNITION AS A TAX-EXEMPT AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC") 501(C)(3). THE ORGANIZATION IS RECOGNIZED AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY AND CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION UNDER 501(C)(3) OF THE IRC. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO DEFINITION IN THE TAX CODE FOR THE TERM "CHARITABLE" A REGULATION PROMULGATED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY PROVIDES SOME GUIDANCE AND STATES THAT "THE TERM CHARITABLE IS USED IN SECTION 501(C)(3) IN ITS GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE," AND PROVIDES EXAMPLES OF CHARITABLE PURPOSES, INCLUDING THE RELIEF OF THE POOR OR UNPRIVILEGED; THE PROMOTION OF SOCIAL WELFARE; AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION, RELIGION, AND SCIENCE. NOTE IT DOES NOT EXPLICITLY ADDRESS THE ACTIVITIES OF HOSPITALS. IN THE ABSENCE OF EXPLICIT STATUTORY OR REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS APPLYING THE TERM "CHARITABLE" TO HOSPITALS, IT HAS BEEN LEFT TO THE IRS TO DETERMINE THE CRITERIA HOSPITALS MUST MEET TO QUALIFY AS IRC 501(C)(3) CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS. THE ORIGINAL STANDARD WAS KNOWN AS THE CHARITY CARE STANDARD. THIS STANDARD WAS REPLACED BY THE IRS WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD WHICH IS THE CURRENT STANDARD. CHARITY CARE STANDARD IN 1956, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 56-185, WHICH ADDRESSED THE REQUIREMENTS HOSPITALS NEEDED TO MEET IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR IRC 501(C)(3) STATUS. ONE OF THESE REQUIREMENTS IS KNOWN AS THE "CHARITY CARE STANDARD." UNDER THE STANDARD, A HOSPITAL HAD TO PROVIDE, TO THE EXTENT OF ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY, FREE OR REDUCED-COST CARE TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY FOR IT. A HOSPITAL THAT EXPECTED FULL PAYMENT DID NOT, ACCORDING TO THE RULING, PROVIDE CHARITY CARE BASED ON THE FACT THAT SOME PATIENTS ULTIMATELY FAILED TO PAY. THE RULING EMPHASIZED THAT A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE DID NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THAT A HOSPITAL HAD FAILED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT SINCE THAT LEVEL COULD REFLECT ITS FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PROVIDE SUCH CARE. THE RULING ALSO NOTED THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED COMMUNITY HOSPITALS WOULD NORMALLY QUALIFY AS CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY, AND A LOW LEVEL OF CHARITY CARE WOULD NOT AFFECT A HOSPITAL'S EXEMPT STATUS IF IT WAS DUE TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY'S LACK OF CHARITABLE DEMANDS. COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD IN 1969, THE IRS ISSUED REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH "REMOVE[D]" FROM REVENUE RULING 56-185 "THE REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO CARING FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT RATES BELOW COST." UNDER THE STANDARD DEVELOPED IN REVENUE RULING 69-545, WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE "COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD," HOSPITALS ARE JUDGED ON WHETHER THEY PROMOTE THE HEALTH OF A BROAD CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY. THE RULING INVOLVED A HOSPITAL THAT ONLY ADMITTED INDIVIDUALS WHO COULD PAY FOR THE SERVICES (BY THEMSELVES, PRIVATE INSURANCE, OR PUBLIC PROGRAMS SUCH AS MEDICARE), BUT OPERATED A FULL-TIME EMERGENCY ROOM THAT WAS OPEN TO EVERYONE. THE IRS RULED THAT THE HOSPITAL QUALIFIED AS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION BECAUSE IT PROMOTED THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE IN ITS COMMUNITY. THE IRS REASONED THAT BECAUSE THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH WAS A CHARITABLE PURPOSE ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY, IT FELL WITHIN THE "GENERALLY ACCEPTED LEGAL SENSE" OF THE TERM "CHARITABLE," AS REQUIRED BY TREAS. REG. 1.501(C)(3)-1(D)(2). THE IRS RULING STATED THAT THE PROMOTION OF HEALTH, LIKE THE RELIEF OF POVERTY AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RELIGION, IS ONE OF THE PURPOSES IN THE GENERAL LAW OF CHARITY THAT IS DEEMED BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE EVEN THOUGH THE CLASS OF BENEFICIARIES ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A DIRECT BENEFIT FROM ITS ACTIVITIES DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS INDIGENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDED THAT THE CLASS IS NOT SO SMALL THAT ITS RELIEF IS NOT OF BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE IRS CONCLUDED THAT THE HOSPITAL WAS "PROMOTING THE HEALTH OF A CLASS OF PERSONS THAT IS BROAD ENOUGH TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY" BECAUSE ITS EMERGENCY ROOM WAS OPEN TO ALL AND IT PROVIDED CARE TO EVERYONE WHO COULD PAY, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT. OTHER CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HOSPITAL THAT THE IRS HIGHLIGHTED INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING: ITS SURPLUS FUNDS WERE USED TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, EXPAND HOSPITAL FACILITIES, AND ADVANCE MEDICAL TRAINING, EDUCATION, AND RESEARCH; IT WAS CONTROLLED BY A BOARD OF TRUSTEES THAT CONSISTED OF INDEPENDENT CIVIC LEADERS; AND HOSPITAL MEDICAL STAFF PRIVILEGES WERE AVAILABLE TO ALL QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS. THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSOCIATED COSTS ARE INCLUDBALE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEUDLE H, PART I. THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ("AHA") BELIEVES THAT MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AND BAD DEBT ARE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. THIS ORGANIZATION AGREES WITH THE AHA POSITION. AS OUTLINED IN THE AHA LETTER TO THE IRS DATED AUGUST 21, 2007 WITH RESPECT TO THE FIRST PUBLISHED DRAFT OF THE NEW FORM 990 AND SCHEDULE H, THE AHA FELT THAT THE IRS SHOULD INCORPORATE THE FULL VALUE OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT THAT HOSPITALS PROVIDE BY COUNTING MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENTS (SHORTFALL) AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: - PROVIDING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY AND SERVING MEDICARE PATIENTS IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD. - MEDICARE, LIKE MEDICAID, DOES NOT PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE. RECENTLY, MEDICARE REIMBURSES HOSPITALS ONLY 92 CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR THEY SPEND TO TAKE CARE OF MEDICARE PATIENTS. THE MEDICARE PAYMENT ADVISORY COMMISSION ("MEDPAC") IN ITS MARCH 2007 REPORT TO CONGRESS CAUTIONED THAT UNDERPAYMENT WILL GET EVEN WORSE, WITH MARGINS REACHING A 10-YEAR LOW AT NEGATIVE 5.4%. - MANY MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES, LIKE THEIR MEDICAID COUNTERPARTS, ARE POOR. MORE THAN 46 PERCENT OF MEDICARE SPENDING IS FOR BENEFICIARIES WHOSE INCOME IS BELOW 200 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. MANY OF THOSE MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID -- SO CALLED "DUAL ELIGIBLES." THERE IS EVERY COMPELLING PUBLIC POLICY REASON TO TREAT MEDICARE AND MEDICAID UNDERPAYMENTS SIMILARLY FOR PURPOSES OF A HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND INCLUDE THESE COSTS ON FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT MUST BE SHOULDERED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE COMMUNITY'S ELDERLY AND POOR. THESE UNDERPAYMENTS REPRESENT A REAL COST OF SERVING THE COMMUNITY AND SHOULD COUNT AS A QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT. BOTH THE AHA AND THIS ORGANIZATION ALSO BELIEVE THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT IS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND THUS INCLUDABLE ON THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H, PART I. LIKE MEDICARE UNDERPAYMENT (SHORTFALLS), THERE ALSO ARE COMPELLING REASONS THAT PATIENT BAD DEBT SHOULD BE COUNTED AS QUANTIFIABLE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AS FOLLOWS: - A SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO LOW-INCOME PATIENTS, WHO, FOR MANY REASONS, DECLINE TO COMPLETE THE FORMS REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY FOR THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS. A 2006 CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ("CBO") REPORT, NONPROFIT HOSPITALS AND THE PROVISION OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS, CITED TWO STUDIES INDICATING THAT "THE GREAT MAJORITY OF BAD DEBT WAS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WITH INCOMES BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE." - THE REPORT ALSO NOTED THAT A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. UNLIKE BAD DEBT IN OTHER INDUSTRIES, HOSPITAL BAD DEBT IS COMPLICATED BY THE FACT THAT HOSPITALS FOLLOW THEIR MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TREAT EVERY PATIENT THAT COMES THROUGH THEIR EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. PATIENTS WHO HAVE OUTSTANDING HOSPITAL INVOICES ARE NOT TURNED AWAY, UNLIKE OTHER INDUSTRIES. BAD DEBT IS FURTHER COMPLICATED BY THE AUDITING INDUSTRY'S STANDARDS ON REPORTING CHARITY CARE. MANY PATIENTS CANNOT OR DO NOT PROVIDE THE NECESSARY, EXTENSIVE DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED TO BE DEEMED CHARITY CARE BY AUDITORS. AS A RESULT, ROUGHLY 40% OF BAD DEBT IS PENDING CHARITY CARE. - THE CBO CONCLUDED THAT ITS FINDINGS "SUPPORT THE VALIDITY OF THE USE OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE [BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE] AS A MEASURE OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS" ASSUMING THE FINDINGS ARE GENERALIZABLE NATIONWIDE; THE EXPERIENCE OF HOSPITALS AROUND THE NATION REINFORCES THAT THEY ARE	ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit
Debt Collection Policy	ACCOUNTS CONSIDERED TO BE CHARITY CARE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE, BUT RATHER, ACCOUNTED FOR AS AN ALLOWANCE. IT IS THE POLICY OF THE DOYLESTOWN HOSPITAL AND ITS RELATED ENTITIES TO TREAT ALL PATIENTS EQUALLY REGARDLESS OF INSURANCE OR ABILITY TO PAY. FOR ACCOUNTS DETERMINED TO BE 'SELF-PAY" AND/OR ACCOUNTS WITH BALANCES AFTER PRIMARY INSURANCE PAYMENTS, THE COLLECTION POLICY REQUIRES REASONABLE AND CUSTOMARY EFFORTS TO COLLECT PATIENT BALANCES, INCLUDING CONTACT BY TELEPHONE, LETTER AND/OR ACCOUNT STATEMENTS. NO LESS THAN 90 DAYS FROM THE FIRST BILLING NOTICE SENT TO A PATIENT, POTENTIAL BAD DEBT ACCOUNTS ARE REVIEWED BY AN ACCOUNT REPRESENTATIVE, AND A PRE-COLLECTION LETTER/FINAL NOTICE IS MAILED TO THE PATIENT/GUARANTOR AS APPROPRIATE. AFTER 15 DAYS, ANY ACCOUNTS OVER $15 WITH NO RESPONSE ARE PLACED WITH A CONTRACTED OUTSIDE COLLECTION AGENCY. THE FACILITY ALSO HAS A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY TO ASSURE PATIENTS ARE PROVIDED WITH CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE DETERMINED BY STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS. IT IS THE POLICY TO INFORM ALL PATIENTS DEEMED SELF-PAY OF THE APPROPRIATE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE. PATIENTS APPLYING FOR CHARITY CARE ASSISTANCE WILL BE FINANCIALLY SCREENED BY A FINANCIAL COUNSELOR TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY ACCORDING TO STATE AND FEDERAL GUIDELINES AND WILL BE INFORMED OF DOCUMENTATION NEEDED TO COMPLETE A CHARITY CARE APPLICATION. QUALIFIED PATIENTS WILL BE REFERRED TO ALL APPROPRIATE AGENCIES OR PROGRAMS TO MEET OTHER FINANCIAL NEEDS. PATIENTS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE WILL BE PROVIDED WITH INFORMATION REGARDING OTHER OPTIONS. UNINSURED PATIENTS IDENTIFIED AS QUALIFYING FOR DISCOUNTED CHARGES FOR MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES WILL BE GRANTED A 50% UNINSURED DISCOUNT FROM TOTAL CHARGES IF NOT COVERED BY A THIRD PARTY. ADDITIONAL DISCOUNTS MAY BE APPLIED FOR UNDERINSURED PATIENTS AFTER APPLICABLE INSURANCE PAYMENTS AND CO-PAYMENTS ARE RECEIVED. AT THE TIME OF THE PATIENT VISIT AND PART OF THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AT THE FACILITY THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO PATIENTS: - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE INCLUDING MEDICAID AND SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME; - FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR POSSIBLE ELIGIBILITY FOR THE DOYLESTOWN HOSPITAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM; - CASH, CHECK, CREDIT CARD; - PROMPT PAY DISCOUNTS; - INTEREST-FREE PAYMENT PLANS	DebtCollectionPolicy
