| BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL CORPORATION | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: BAYSTATE HEALTH HOSPITALS, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE COALITION OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS HOSPITALS/INSURER, INCORPORATED EXTENSIVE COMMUNITY INPUT INTO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE FY2025 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENTS (CHNAS). COMMUNITY PERSPECTIVES DIRECTLY INFORMED THE IDENTIFICATION AND PRIORITIZATION OF REGIONAL HEALTH NEEDS, ENSURING THAT THE CHNA REFLECTS BOTH QUANTITATIVE DATA AND LIVED EXPERIENCE.INPUT WAS GATHERED AND ACTIVELY USED TO CONFIRM DATA FINDINGS, IDENTIFY EMERGING ISSUES, AND PRIORITIZE HEALTH NEEDS THROUGH SEVERAL STRUCTURED ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIES. THESE INCLUDED A REGIONAL ADVISORY COUNCIL (RAC), KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS, FOCUS GROUPS, COMMUNITY LISTENING SESSIONS, AND HOSPITAL-BASED COMMUNITY BENEFIT ADVISORY COUNCILS. FEEDBACK FROM THESE SOURCES WAS SYNTHESIZED AND APPLIED TO SHAPE FINAL PRIORITY AREAS AND INFORM IMPLEMENTATION PLANNING. THE HOSPITAL FACILITIES CONSULTED A BROAD AND REPRESENTATIVE GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS, INCLUDING: LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS AND HEALTH DEPARTMENT LEADERS - REPRESENTATIVES FROM COMMUNITY-BASED AND ADVOCACY ORGANIZATIONS - MUNICIPAL AGENCY LEADERS - HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS AND ADMINISTRATORS - ORGANIZATIONS SERVING MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED, LOW-INCOME, AND POPULATIONS OF COLOR - COMMUNITY RESIDENTS, INCLUDING INDIVIDUALS WITH LIVED EXPERIENCE RELATED TO PRIORITY HEALTH ISSUESTHE RAC SERVED AS A CENTRAL FORUM FOR ENGAGEMENT, BRINGING TOGETHER REPRESENTATIVES FROM COALITION MEMBER HOSPITALS, THE LOCAL INSURERS, PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERTS, AND COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS TO REVIEW DATA, PROVIDE FEEDBACK, AND GUIDE PRIORITY SETTING.ADDITIONAL TARGETED INPUT WAS OBTAINED THROUGH KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS WITH HEALTHCARE LEADERS, PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS, AND COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATION REPRESENTATIVES, AS WELL AS FOCUS GROUPS WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS, INCLUDING INDIVIDUALS FROM DIVERSE SOCIOECONOMIC AND RACIAL/ETHNIC BACKGROUNDS. THESE DISCUSSIONS EXPLORED KEY ISSUES SUCH AS MENTAL HEALTH, SUBSTANCE USE, FOOD INSECURITY, CAREGIVING CHALLENGES, AND OTHER SOCIAL DRIVERS OF HEALTH. PRIMARY DATA COLLECTION OCCURRED BETWEEN FEBRUARY AND MAY 2025 AND WAS COMPLEMENTED BY ANALYSIS OF SECONDARY DATA ON HEALTH OUTCOMES, DISPARITIES, AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH. COMMUNITY INPUT WAS SYSTEMATICALLY INTEGRATED WITH THIS DATA TO ENSURE THAT IDENTIFIED PRIORITIES REFLECT BOTH STATISTICAL TRENDS AND COMMUNITY-IDENTIFIED NEEDS.THROUGH THIS COMPREHENSIVE AND INCLUSIVE PROCESS, BAYSTATE HEALTH ENSURED THAT COMMUNITY VOICES WERE NOT ONLY HEARD BUT DIRECTLY INFLUENCED THE CHNA'S FINDINGS AND PRIORITY HEALTH AREAS. |
| BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL CORPORATION | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6A: BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL (PALMER) CONDUCTED ITS 2025 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) IN COLLABORATION WITH THE FOLLOWING REGIONAL HOSPITALS: BAYSTATE MEDICAL CENTER (SPRINGFIELD), BAYSTATE FRANKLIN MEDICAL CENTER (GREENFIELD), BAYSTATE NOBLE HOSPITAL (WESTFIELD), BERKSHIRE MEDICAL CENTER (PITTSFIELD), FAIRVIEW HOSPITAL (GREAT BARRINGTON), COOLEY DICKINSON HOSPITAL (NORTHAMPTON), HOLYOKE MEDICAL CENTER (HOLYOKE), AND MERCY MEDICAL CENTER (SPRINGFIELD). |
| BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL CORPORATION | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 6B: THE COALITION OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS HOSPITALS/INSURER ENGAGED THE PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS (PHIWM), BASED IN SPRINGFIELD, AS THE LEAD CONSULTANT TO CONDUCT THE CHNAS. PHIWM WAS SUPPORTED BY THREE REGIONAL PARTNERS: COMMUNITY HEALTH SOLUTIONS (NORTHAMPTON), THE FRANKLIN REGIONAL COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS (GREENFIELD), AND THE BERKSHIRE REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION (PITTSFIELD).THE COALITION ALSO INCLUDES HEALTH NEW ENGLAND, A LOCAL HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANY OWNED BY BAYSTATE HEALTH, WHOSE SERVICE AREA SPANS THE FOUR COUNTIES OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND WORCESTER COUNTY. |
| BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL CORPORATION | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 7D: IN ADDITION TO POSTING CHNA REPORTS ON THE BAYSTATE HEALTH WEBSITE (WWW.BAYSTATEHEALTH.ORG/CHNA), THE HOSPITAL FACILITY MADE THE REPORTS WIDELY ACCESSIBLE THROUGH EMAIL DISTRIBUTION TO COMMUNITY PARTNERS AND LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS. HOSPITAL AND CONSULTANT STAFF ALSO SHARED KEY FINDINGS AT PUBLIC PRESENTATIONS, COMMUNITY MEETINGS, AND OTHER REGIONAL FORUMS, ENSURING BROAD AWARENESS AND UNDERSTANDING OF COMMUNITY HEALTH PRIORITIES. THE CHNA REPORTS FURTHER INFORMED COUNTYWIDE COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLANS IN FRANKLIN AND HAMPDEN COUNTIES AND THE QUABOAG HILLS REGION, SUPPORTING COMMUNITY-DRIVEN HEALTH INITIATIVES AND REGIONAL PLANNING EFFORTS. |
| BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL CORPORATION | PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL'S MOST RECENTLY CONDUCTED COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT WAS ITS 2025 CHNA, ADOPTED BY THE BAYSTATE HEALTH BOARD OF TRUSTEES ON SEPTEMBER 9, 2025. IN RESPONSE TO THAT CHNA, BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL ADOPTED A 2026-2028 STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. THE 2025 CHNA IDENTIFIED PRIORITIZED HEALTH NEEDS THAT INCLUDED ACCESS AND AFFORDABILITY OF BASIC NEEDS, INCLUDING FOOD, HOUSING, AND TRANSPORTATION; EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT; EMPLOYMENT AND INCOME; ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES AND CLIMATE CRISIS; VIOLENCE AND TRAUMA; BARRIERS TO HEALTHCARE ACCESS; MATERNAL HEALTH; MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS; AND CHRONIC CONDITIONS AND OTHER HEALTH OUTCOMES.FOR THE 2026-2028 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY PERIOD, BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL SELECTED TWO PRIORITY FOCUS AREAS: FOOD SYSTEMS AND HEALTHY BEGINNINGS (MATERNAL, INFANT, AND EARLY CHILDHOOD HEALTH). THROUGH ITS FOOD SYSTEMS FOCUS, THE HOSPITAL IS ADDRESSING ACCESS TO BASIC NEEDS RELATED TO FOOD. THE GOAL OF THIS FOCUS AREA IS TO STRENGTHEN AND TRANSFORM REGIONAL FOOD SYSTEMS SO THAT RESIDENTS HAVE EQUITABLE ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS, AFFORDABLE, AND LOCALLY SOURCED FOOD. PLANNED PARTNERS INCLUDE BEHEALTHY PARTNERSHIP ACO, HEALTH NEW ENGLAND, 413CARES, FOOD BANK OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS, LOCAL FARMERS' MARKETS, CSAS, FOOD PANTRIES, FOOD POLICY COUNCILS, PALMER PUBLIC LIBRARY, THE PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS, THE QUABOAG HILLS COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN, TRINITY EPISCOPAL CHURCH - JUBILEE CUPBOARD, AND WARE SENIOR CENTER. PLANNED RESOURCES INCLUDE COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH HOSPITALS, CLINICS, COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, AND PRODUCERS, AS WELL AS STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS AND COMMUNITY BENEFIT GRANTS.THROUGH ITS HEALTHY BEGINNINGS FOCUS, BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL IS ADDRESSING MATERNAL, INFANT, AND EARLY CHILDHOOD HEALTH. THE GOAL OF THIS FOCUS AREA IS TO ENSURE THAT FAMILIES HAVE EQUITABLE ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY CARE, SUPPORTIVE SERVICES, AND EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAMS THAT PROMOTE HEALTHY BEGINNINGS FOR MOTHERS, INFANTS, AND YOUNG CHILDREN AND SUPPORT LIFELONG HEALTH AND WELL-BEING. THE HOSPITAL WILL MONITOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THESE PRIORITY FOCUS AREAS THROUGH COMMUNITY BENEFITS AND COMMUNITY RELATIONS, IN COLLABORATION WITH THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCIL, MULTIDISCIPLINARY WORKGROUPS, STRATEGY AND QUALITY TEAMS, HEALTH NEW ENGLAND, AND OTHER SUBJECT-MATTER EXPERTS. THE HOSPITAL REPORTS THAT THE SIP WILL BE UPDATED ANNUALLY AND MONITORED THROUGH QUARTERLY UPDATES TO RELEVANT INTERNAL COMMITTEES.THE HOSPITAL'S SIP STATES THAT IT WILL NOT FOCUS ON MENTAL HEALTH, SUBSTANCE USE, HOUSING, EDUCATION, EMPLOYMENT/INCOME, ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES, VIOLENCE/TRAUMA, AND CHRONIC CONDITIONS DURING THIS IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY PERIOD. THE SIP EXPLAINS THAT, ALTHOUGH ALL CHNA-IDENTIFIED ISSUES ARE SIGNIFICANT, NO HOSPITAL CAN ADDRESS EVERY NEED AND BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL MUST FOCUS ITS LIMITED RESOURCES AND EXPERTISE WHERE IT BELIEVES IT CAN HAVE THE GREATEST IMPACT. THE SIP FURTHER STATES THAT SOME IDENTIFIED ISSUES FALL OUTSIDE THE HOSPITAL'S PRIMARY SERVICES.THE 2025 CHNA ALSO IDENTIFIES BARRIERS TO HEALTHCARE ACCESS AS A PRIORITIZED NEED. THE SIP DOES NOT LIST THAT NEED SEPARATELY AS EITHER A STAND-ALONE PRIORITY FOCUS AREA OR A STAND-ALONE NEED THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT INTEND TO ADDRESS. TO THE EXTENT ADDRESSED IN THE SIP, ACCESS IS REFLECTED WITHIN THE HEALTHY BEGINNINGS GOAL OF EQUITABLE ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY CARE FOR MOTHERS, INFANTS, AND YOUNG CHILDREN. |

THIS DISCOUNT PROGRAM IS AVAILABLE TO ALL HOSPITAL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENTS WITH CO-PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS UNDER PRIVATE OR GOVERNMENT HEALTH INSURANCE (UNLESS PROHIBITED BY LAW OR A BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL CONTRACT WITH A PRIVATE INSURER OR GOVERNMENT AUTHORITY). THESE PATIENTS MAY REDUCE THE OTHERWISE APPLICABLE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT SERVICE CO-PAYMENT BY 10% IF THE PATIENT ELECTS TO PAY THE CO-PAYMENT AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE PATIENT'S EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISIT. |

| PART I, LINE 6A: | THE HOSPITAL SUBMITS AN ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFITS REPORT ELECTRONICALLY TO THE MASSACHUSETTS OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL VIA WWW.MASS.GOV/NONPROFIT-HOSPITAL-AND-HMO-COMMUNITY-BENEFITS AND MAKES IT PUBLICLY AVAILABLE ON THE BAYSTATE HEALTH WEBSITE AT WWW.BAYSTATEHEALTH.ORG/CHNA. THE REPORT PROVIDES THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AND THE PUBLIC WITH INFORMATION ON HOW THE HOSPITAL COLLABORATES WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO IDENTIFY AND ADDRESS LOCAL HEALTH NEEDS, AND IT DETAILS PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES IMPLEMENTED OR SUPPORTED IN RESPONSE TO THOSE NEEDS. |
| PART I, LINE 7: | LINE 7A (CHARITY CARE) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES, CALCULATED ON WORKSHEET 2, AGAINST TOTAL CHARITY CARE GROSS PATIENT CHARGES FROM THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. LINE 7B (UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS DERIVED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM, WHICH TAKES INTO ACCOUNT ALL HOSPITAL INPATIENTS, OUTPATIENTS AND EMERGENCY ROOM PATIENTS FOR WHOM SERVICES WERE PROVIDED AND COVERED UNDER MEDICAID AND MEDICAID MANAGED CARE PLANS.LINE 7C (OTHER MEANS-TESTED PROGRAMS) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS DERIVED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM, WHICH TAKES INTO ACCOUNT ALL HOSPITAL INPATIENTS, OUTPATIENTS AND EMERGENCY ROOM PATIENTS FOR WHOM SERVICES WERE PROVIDED AND COVERED UNDER OTHER MEANS-TESTED GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS.LINE 7E (COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SERVICES & BENEFIT OPERATIONS) -COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT SERVICES CALCULATIONS ARE DERIVED FROM DIRECT AND INDIRECT COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH COMMUNITY BENEFIT ACTIVITIES THAT ARE ALIGNED WITH THE HOSPITAL'S 2025 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THESEACTIVITIES ARE CARRIED OUT TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY HEALTH AND WELLNESS AND EXTEND BEYOND PATIENT CARE, BEYOND THE WALLS OF THE HOSPITAL.COMMUNITY BENEFIT OPERATIONS CALCULATIONS ARE DERIVED FROM COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ASSIGNED STAFF AND COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AND/OR ASSETS ASSESSMENT, AS WELL AS OTHER COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH COMMUNITY BENEFIT STRATEGY AND OPERATIONS.LINE 7G (SUBSIDIZED PROGRAMS) - COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE WAS DERIVED USING THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. THE EXPENSE RELATES TO THE INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY PROGRAMS AND TO SPECIFIC OUTPATIENT PROGRAMS. THERE ARE NO COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PHYSICIAN CLINICS REPORTED AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES.PART I, LINE 7, COLUMN (F):IN FISCAL YEAR 2020, THE ORGANIZATION ADOPTED THE PROVISIONS OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATE 2014-09, REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS (TOPIC 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). THE UPDATE RESULTED IN CHANGES IN THE PRESENTATION AND DISCLOSURE OF REVENUE PRIMARILY RELATED TO UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED PATIENTS. UNDER ASU 2014-09 THE ESTIMATED UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS DUE FROM THESE PATIENTS ARE GENERALLY CONSIDERED IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS THAT ARE A DIRECT REDUCTION TO NET OPERATING REVENUES. IN 2025, THESE IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS, FORMERLY KNOWN AS PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS, TOTALED $5,848,584 AND ARE NOT INCLUDED IN TOTAL EXPENSES REPORTED IN PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A) FOR THE PURPOSE OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGES IN PART 1, LINE 7, COLUMN (F). |
| PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: | WHILE NOT QUANTIFIED IN PART II OF SCHEDULE H, THE HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO BUILDING HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES AND RECOGNIZES THAT COMMUNITY BENEFIT INITIATIVES ALONE CANNOT FULLY ADDRESS ALL IDENTIFIED HEALTH NEEDS. BAYSTATE HEALTH EMBRACES A BROAD DEFINITION OF HEALTH, ACKNOWLEDGING THAT WELL-BEING AND LIFE EXPECTANCY ARE SHAPED BY SOCIAL, ENVIRONMENTAL, BEHAVIORAL, AND HEALTHCARE FACTORS. TO ADVANCE THIS COMMITMENT, THE HOSPITAL INVESTS IN SERVICES, PROGRAMS, AND RESOURCES THAT EXTEND BEYOND ITS WALLS, INCLUDING GRANTS AND SPONSORSHIPS FOR COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND ACTIVE ENGAGEMENT OF HOSPITAL LEADERSHIP ON BOARDS AND PARTNERSHIPS ALIGNED WITH ITS MISSION.FOR FY25, BAYSTATE WING HOSPITAL PAID $1,600 IN DUES TO THE QUABOAG HILLS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. AS THE REGION'S LARGEST PRIVATE EMPLOYER, THE HOSPITAL PARTICIPATES IN THE CHAMBER TO COLLABORATE WITH BUSINESS AND COMMUNITY LEADERS ON INITIATIVES THAT ADVANCE REGIONAL SUSTAINABILITY, WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, AND ECONOMIC GROWTH. THIS ENGAGEMENT ALIGNS WITH BAYSTATE HEALTH'S 2030 ASPIRATION TO BE THE ECONOMIC AND HEALTH PILLAR, RECOGNIZING THE LINK BETWEEN ECONOMIC STABILITY AND COMMUNITY HEALTH, AND HELPS CREATE CONDITIONS THAT ENABLE INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES, AND COMMUNITIES TO THRIVE. |
| PART III, LINE 2: | THE COST OF BAD DEBTS REPORTED WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING A RATIO OF COST TO CHARGES (BASED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM INCLUDING ALL HOSPITAL INPATIENTS AND OUTPATIENTS) AGAINST TOTAL IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS AS REFLECTED IN THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. |
| PART III, LINE 3: | THE PORTION OF BAD DEBT THAT REASONABLY COULD BE ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO MAY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM WAS CALCULATED BY APPLYING THE PERCENTAGE OF BAD DEBTS BY ZIP CODE (FOR WHICH THE AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD INCOME FOR EACH ZIP CODE IS LESS THAN 150% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL) TO THE TOTAL COST OF BAD DEBT REPORTED IN PART III LINE 2. SINCE THIS PORTION OF BAD DEBT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS RESIDING IN AN AREA WHERE THE AVERAGE INCOME IS LESS THAN 150% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, IT IS HIGHLY LIKELY THESE PATIENTS WOULD HAVE QUALIFIED FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE PROGRAM HAD THEY APPLIED. FOR THIS REASON, WE BELIEVE THE AMOUNT, TOTALING $24,868, SHOULD BE TREATED AS COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE IN PART I. |
| PART III, LINE 4: | AS NOTED ABOVE, THE ORGANIZATION ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATE 2014-09 EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1, 2018, WHICH CHANGED THE WAY ENTITIES REPORT AND DISCLOSE CERTAIN FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDING IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSION (FORMERLY THE PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS). SEE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, FOOTNOTE #2 (SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES) ON PAGES 14 AND 15 UNDER THE CAPTION "NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE" FOR A DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANIZATION'S REPORTING OF ITS IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS (FORMERLY PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS). IF A PATIENT IS DETERMINED ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, THE APPROPRIATE ADJUSTMENT IS MADE TO THE PATIENT ACCOUNT BASED ON THEIR INCOME LEVEL. ONCE THE NECESSARY APPROVALS ARE OBTAINED, IT THEN FLOWS TO THE GENERAL LEDGER. PATIENTS APPLYING FOR A PROMPT PAYMENT DISCOUNT WILL HAVE THIS ALLOWANCE ENTERED AFTER AGREED UPON PAYMENT IS RECEIVED. |
| PART III, LINE 8: | LINE 6 - INCLUDED ALL MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS AS CALCULATED IN WORKSHEETS D-1 PART II (INPATIENT) AND D PART V (OUTPATIENT) OF THE HOSPITAL'S 2025 MEDICARE COST REPORT, NET OF MEDICARE COSTS REPORTED IN PART I, LINE 7.G, BASED ON MEDICARE COSTING PRINCIPLES. THERE IS NO SHORTFALL REPORTED ON LINE 7. |
| PART III, LINE 9B: | FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE KNOWN TO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: THE PATIENT MAY HAVE REQUESTED ASSISTANCE UP FRONT AT TIME OF SERVICE WITH A FINANCIAL COUNSELOR OR THE PATIENT COULD HAVE ASKED FOR ASSISTANCE AFTER RECEIVING THEIR BILL BY CONTACTING OUR PATIENT BILLING SERVICES REPRESENTATIVES. THE FINANCIAL COUNSELOR WILL ASSIST THE PATIENT IN APPLYING FOR THE APPROPRIATE TYPE OF ASSISTANCE BASED ON THEIR INCOME AND CIRCUMSTANCES. ONCE APPROVED FOR A STATE MEDICAID OR OTHER PROGRAM, ALL BILLING AND COLLECTION ACTIVITY WILL STOP (EXCEPT FOR REQUIRED CO-PAYMENTS OR DEDUCTIBLES). FOR ALL OTHER PATIENTS, OUR STATEMENTS CONTAIN INFORMATION REGARDING HOW TO APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. NOTICES CONCERNING AVAILABILITY FOR ASSISTANCE ARE ALSO POSTED AT PATIENT CARE SITES. |
| PART VI, LINE 2: | THE HOSPITAL ASSESSES THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES THROUGH A COMBINATION OF DATA ANALYSIS AND COMMUNITY-INFORMED INPUT. QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENTS INCLUDE HOSPITAL UTILIZATION DATA, PATIENT DEMOGRAPHICS, POPULATION HEALTH INDICATORS, AND LOCAL AND REGIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH DATASETS TO IDENTIFY TRENDS IN CHRONIC DISEASE, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH, AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH.QUALITATIVE INPUT IS GATHERED THROUGH ADVISORY AND GOVERNANCE STRUCTURES, INCLUDING COMMUNITY ADVISORY COUNCILS (CACS), COMMUNITY BENEFITS ADVISORY COUNCILS (CBACS), PATIENT & FAMILY ADVISORY COUNCILS (PFACS), THE BAYSTATE HEALTH BOARD OF TRUSTEES, AND THE SYSTEM-WIDE HEALTH QUALITY & EQUITY COMMITTEE (HQ&EC). THESE GROUPS PROVIDE GUIDANCE ON EMERGING HEALTH ISSUES, SERVICE GAPS, AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR COLLABORATION, ENSURING THAT COMMUNITY AND LIVED-EXPERIENCE PERSPECTIVES SHAPE HOSPITAL PRIORITIES. PFAC SPECIFICALLY INFORMS BARRIERS TO CARE AND UNMET NEEDS FROM PATIENT AND FAMILY EXPERIENCES.BAYSTATE HOSPITALS ALSO ENGAGE IN LOCAL AND REGIONAL PARTNERSHIPS, INCLUDING THE FRANKLIN COUNTY, HAMPDEN COUNTY, AND QUABOAG HILLS COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLANS, AND MAINTAIN ONGOING RELATIONSHIPS WITH PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCIES AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS. TOGETHER, THESE DATA-DRIVEN AND COMMUNITY-INFORMED APPROACHES PROVIDE A CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT OF HEALTH NEEDS, ENSURING HOSPITAL PROGRAMS AND INVESTMENTS RESPOND TO EVOLVING PRIORITIES.
