The information garnered from the assessment may be used by Hartford HealthCare to inform decisions and guide efforts to improve community health and wellness. Hartford HealthCare operates in five Community Benefit regions Central Region (Hospital of Central Connecticut & MidState Medical Center), East Region (Backus Hospital, Natchaug Hospital & Windham Hospital), Hartford Region (Hartford Hospital), Northwest Region (Charlotte Hungerford Hospital) and Fairfield Region (St. Vincent's Medical Center). The regional approach includes partners within and across regions, hospital services areas, and community-based health equity champions. Recognizing the need to reduce and eliminate health disparities at the leadership and governance levels of health care and other local organizations is a central and necessary first step in community health improvement. The second step to improving health equity is to collect and use data about race, ethnicity, and language preference to develop a shared understanding of the challenges in the community. Education about cultural sensitivity is also required. The HHC regional teams involved a team of "Health Equity Champions" representing multiracial or other marginalized communities to help ensure the research is reflective of the community perspectives.Hartford Hospital worked closely with health service area collaboratives including local public health departments to complete its CHNA. At a minimum, local public health worked with Hartford Hospital to review hospital, state and local data and help define 2025 CHNA priorities. Additionally, to increase their understanding of community members' perspectives on identified health issues and ideas for addressing them, staff solicited input from individuals representing the broad interests of the community such as staff from social service and public health organizations and community residents. Staff collected feedback through a range of methods, including focus groups and interviews. Community input came from diverse groups in terms of age, race/ethnicity, cultural group, and other demographics. A special effort was made to reach historically underserved communities. Where possible, the hospital aligned their process with assessments being conducted by local public health and other community agencies. The assessment involved substantial qualitative data gathering to highlight local knowledge and expertise, and to support outreach efforts for community engagement. The primary qualitative mixed-mode approach engaged policy leaders, key stakeholders, nonprofit organizations, health care consumers, the criminal justice system, diversity representatives, people experiencing homelessness, and others throughout the hospital service area. - Health Equity Champions Outreach- Stakeholder One-to-One Interviews- Focus Group Discussions Individuals were interviewed from the Hartford region and included participants from organizations servicing seniors; people supporting those experiencing homelessness; providers; leadership at FQHCs; local health department representatives; and other social service representatives. Data from multiple sources were gathered and assessed, including secondary data published by others and primary data obtained through community input. Input from the community was received through key stakeholder interviews. Interviewees represented the broad interests of the community and included individuals with special knowledge of or expertise in public health as listed below: Center for Healthy Aging Connecticut Alliance for Basic Human Needs FoodShare/CT Food Bank Hartford Food System City of Hartford Health Department Hartford Hospital, Emergency Medicine Hispanic Health Council Interval House Phillips Metropolitan CME Church Southside Institutions Neighborhood Alliance (SINA) United Way of Central and Northeastern Connecticut Urban League of Greater Hartford Hartford HealthCare Behavioral Health Network Hartford Hospital, OBGYN Services The Village for Families & Children Community Health Services (FQHC) Hartford Hospital Part V, Section B, Line 6a: For this community health assessment, Hartford Hospital collaborated with the following Hartford Healthcare hospitals: Backus Hospital, Charlotte Hungerford Hospital, Hospital of Central Connecticut, Midstate Medical Center, Natchaug Hospital, and Windham Hospital. These facilities collaborated by gathering and assessing secondary data together, scheduling and conducting interviews together, and by relying on shared methodologies, report formats, and staff to manage the CHNA process.Part V, Section B, Line 7ahttps://hartfordhospital.org/community-health-needs-assessment Hartford Hospital Part V, Section B, Line 7d: The needs assessment was published in September 2025 and is available on the hospital's website. In addition, electronic copies are available upon request. Part V, Section B, Line 10ahttps://hartfordhospital.org/community-health-needs-assessment Hartford Hospital Part V, Section B, Line 11: The 2025 Community Health Needs Assessment ("CHNA") for Hartford Hospital, in Hartford HealthCare's (HHC) Greater Hartford Region, leveraged numerous sources of local, regional, state and national data along with input from community-based organizations and individuals to provide insight into the current health status, health-related behaviors and community health needs for the Hospital service area. In addition to assessing traditional health status indicators, the 2025 CHNA took a close look at health-related social needs such as poverty, housing, transportation, education, fresh food availability, and neighborhood safety. These enhancements are in response to a growing national priority to identify and address health disparities and inequities. HHC and Hartford Hospital are committed to addressing these disparities and inequities through its Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). The intent of our CHIP is to be responsive to community needs and expectations and create a plan that can be effectively executed to leverage the best of the system resources, regional hospital and network resources, and community partners. The CHIP supports HHC's mission "to improve the health and healing of all and is part of HHC's vision to be "most trusted for personalized coordinated care." More specifically, this CHIP is collectively aimed at living our Value of Health Equity which reminds us all to do the just thing.The 2025 assessment identified Improve the Coordination of Services and Access to Care, Reduce the Burden of Chronic Disease, ED Improvements), Enhance Community-Based Behavioral Health Services, and Maternal, Child & Reproductive Health as priority needs for 2026-2028 across all Hartford Hospital geography. All needs identified in the CHNA are currently being addressed.Prioritized communities:* Disadvantaged communities, people of color, and others who have historically lacked adequate access to services.The CHIP programming for FY25 was based on the 2022 CHNA and subsequent CHIP which ran from FY23-25.Mental Health Outreach Partner with Community Groups to Foster Training: To strengthen community engagement and increase impact, we pivoted our approach to collaboration after two initial events that did not generate the anticipated level of community attendance. In response, we shifted from an event-based model to a relationship-driven strategy, prioritizing direct engagement with community organizations to better understand their needs and identify meaningful opportunities for partnership. During this period, we met individually with 13 community organizations, resulting in more targeted and responsive collaborations. Through these partnerships, we delivered a range of evidence-based training to build community capacity and support crisis response. This included Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) suicide prevention training across 11 groups, reaching 64 individuals; NARCAN education and distribution through 2 events, serving 12 individuals; and SMART Recoveryinformed programming delivered to 52 groups, engaging 215 individuals. Leverage community response teams to support families in crisis: Family Resource Center (FRC) continues to respond to community-identified needs by leveraging community response teams to support families during times of crisis. In collaboration with community organizations, schools, and municipalities, FRC provides timely education, health professional support, and in-kind donations to address urgent needs and stabilize families impacted by community-level challenges. During this reporting period, these efforts were delivered through 3 community response events, reaching 88 individuals, reinforcing FRC's role as a trusted and responsive community partner. Education Opportunities to De-Stigmatize Mental Illness To reduce stigma and increase community understanding of mental health conditions, FRC implemented a comprehensive set of education and engagement initiatives designed to reach individuals across multiple settings and levels of need. These efforts focused on increasing mental health literacy, promoting early identification, and encouraging help-seeking behaviors. During the reporting period, FRC delivered Mental Health First Aid training through 12 events, reaching 113 individuals. FRC also participated in 35 community events, engaging 1,932 individuals, providing education, resources, and referral information to a broad community audience. To further expand access to mental health education, FRC hosted 12 community webinars covering topics such as Substance Use Disorder, Schizophrenia, Anxiety, Dementia, Depression, and Bipolar Disorder, with 72 attendees. In addition, FRC facilitated 115 community support groups, including groups focused on substance use recovery and survivors of suicide loss, reaching 577 individuals and offering ongoing peer support and connection. Large-scale awareness and recognition events further reinforced stigma-reduction efforts, including the World Suicide Prevention Day Conference, which engaged 280 individuals, and the BrainDance Awards, an academic, art, and mixed-media competition that encourages middle and high school students to explore psychiatric illness, deepen understanding, and foster compassion around mental health which engaged 106 individuals. Staff Recruitment Talent Acquisition (TA) continues to support workforce development and recruitment efforts across the Hartford region by participating in outreach activities designed to increase awareness of healthcare career opportunities and strengthen the local talent pipeline. During the reporting period, TA participated in 36 campus and career recruitment events in the Hartford region, connecting with students and job seekers to promote healthcare careers and employment opportunities. These efforts support organizational staffing needs and contribute to building a skilled workforce reflective of the communities served, consistent with applicable federal and state laws and equal employment opportunity requirements. Access to Care Efforts to improve access to care focused on reducing barriers to preventive services, chronic disease prevention, and health education across the community. The Food4Health (F4H) Clinic expanded its reach by servicing 26 clinics at Hartford Hospital and extending services to include an F4H clinic at the Institute of Living. Through this initiative, 7 in-person nutrition education classes were delivered, engaging approximately 50 staff members. Community-based Smoking Cessation programming further supported access to preventive care, with 7 in-person events reaching 405 individuals. These efforts emphasized education, behavior change support, and connection to cessation resources within the community. Cancer prevention and early detection remained a key priority. Cancer Community Outreach Screening Events totaled 180 outreach activities, impacting 3,462 community members and reflecting a 63% increase in outreach compared to prior periods. In addition, our Mobile Mammography unit conducted education through 23 mobile outreach events, providing breast cancer screening access to 543 community members, particularly in underserved and high-need areas. Improve Ambulatory Preventive Care in Primary Care Settings Our clinic advanced ambulatory preventive care efforts with a focus on improving diabetes and blood pressure control among patients residing in vulnerable zip codes. These initiatives prioritized early identification, patient education, and care coordination within primary care settings. Hypertension outcomes exceeded established targets, with 83.9% of patients achieving blood pressure control, surpassing the target of 81.3%. To support these outcomes, registered nurses conducted 76 blood pressure screening encounters, and 69 blood pressure monitors were distributed to patients to encourage home monitoring and self-management. Diabetes management efforts also met performance goals within priority zip codes, with 18.4% of patients achieving A1C control, exceeding the target benchmark of 21.5%. This progress was supported through 80 diabetes education encounters led by registered nurses, reinforcing disease management, medication adherence, and lifestyle modification. In addition, strengthened collaboration between Adult Primary Care (APC) and Diabetes Life Care (DLC) improved care continuity for 295 shared patients, enhancing coordination of services and expanding access to specialized support for patients with complex needs.All needs identified in the CHNA are currently being addressed.

In addition, the hospital takes into consideration, medical indigency, insurance status, underinsurance status and other family eligibility criteria such as family size, employment and financial obligations.Part I, Line 6a:Although the organization does not prepare a formal Community Benefit Report, quarterly reports are submitted to Connecticut Hospital Association and Form 990 is submitted to the Connecticut Office of Health Strategy (OHS) annually. Part I, Line 7: The organization utilized an overall cost to charge ratio (RCC), developed from the Medicare Cost Report. Total expense was adjusted for: medicaid provider taxes, directly identified community benefit expense and community building expenses. This cost to charge ratio was used to calculate costs for Part I lines 7a, b, & g. The costs associated with the activities reported on Part I, Line 7e were captured using actual time multiplied by an average salary rate. The costs associated with Line 7h, were the actual costs reported in the organization's general ledger less any industry funded studies. These costs were removed from the calculations above to avoid duplication. Costs reported in Part III, Section B6, were calculated from the Medicare cost report and reduced for Medicare costs previously reported on Part I Lines 7f and g. Part I, Line 7g: No physician clinic costs were included in the Subsidized Health Services cost calculations. Part II, Community Building Activities: Hartford Hospital coordinates with various organizations to perform community building activities that addresses issues related to Social Determinants of Health, and as such, the hospital interacts with the community to address these needs and facilitates appropriate responses. The total expenditure for FY25 is $1,030,525. Part III, Line 3: The organization utilizes a pre-bad debt financial assistance screening process to identify patients who may qualify for charity care under its Financial Assistance Policy (FAP). Patient accounts identified as eligible are adjusted to charity care prior to any referral to bad debt. As a result, bad debt expense attributable to patients who otherwise would have qualified for charity care is minimal.Effective in FY24, the organization enhanced its Financial Assistance Policy by revising the Federal Poverty Guideline (FPG) factor, thereby expanding eligibility to a broader patient population. This policy change resulted in a higher volume of patients qualifying for financial assistance rather than being classified as bad debt.In connection with this policy enhancement, historical patient accounts were reviewed, and amounts previously recorded as bad debt that met the revised charity care criteria were reclassified. This reconciliation contributed to a significant reduction in reported bad debt and resulted in reversals reflected as a positive impact in Fiscal Year 2025.This note also pertains to Part III, Line 2. Part III, Line 4: Please see the text of the footnote that describes bad debt expense beginning on page 24 of the Audited Financial Statement. The Footnote is also applicable to Part III, Line 2. Part III, Line 8: Providing care those in need, including Medicare and Medicaid patients, and serving all patients regardless of ability to pay is an essential part of the community benefit standard, as well as our mission in our community. We serve these patients without regard to the payment shortfall. Therefore Medicare shortfall should be considered Community Benefit. The organization used cost to charge ratio as determined by Medicare Cost report. Part III, Line 9b: Hartford Hospital has adopted the Financial Assistance Policy of its Parent Company, Hartford HealthCare Corporation. The following is included in the Financial Assistance Policy: Patients who are deemed ineligible for financial assistance or who receive a partial discount and do not pay their bills may be subject to the following Extraordinary Collection Action (ECAs):*Wage Garnishments*Liens on primary and secondary residences, bank or investment accounts, or other assets*Legal actions and reporting the matter to one or more credit rating agencies*Other ECAs not listed aboveIf an individual has not submitted an application within the first 120 days from the date on which Hartford HealthCare first issues its first, post-discharge billing statement, then Hartford HealthCare may begin engaging in the ECAs described above.ECAs may begin after the first 120 days from the date on which Hartford HealthCare issues its first, post-discharge billing statement. If the patient applies for assistance within 240 days from the first notification of the self-pay balance, and is granted assistance, Hartford HealthCare will take all reasonable available measures to remove any collection actions such as negative reporting to a credit bureau or liens that have been filed.Before Hartford HealthCare initiates any collection actions, it will issue a written notice to the last known address of record for the patient (or his/her family) that describes the specific collection activities it intends to initiate (or resume), provides a deadline after which such action(s) will be initiated (or resumed), and includes a plain language summary of this Policy. ECAs can begin no sooner than 30 days from the date written notice is transmitted. Patients who are ineligible for financial assistance, or qualify for partial financial assistance and who are cooperating in good faith to resolve the outstanding accounts, may be offered extended payment plans. No further collection action will be taken as long as the patient continues to meet the terms of the payment plan. Part VI, Line 2: The Hartford HealthCare Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) serves as a component in the overall efforts to improve community health and health equity in each of the seven-hospital service areas. It is a process that provides a means of identifying and collecting community data while engaging community members in both the data collection and the prioritization of collaborative efforts for improving the well-being of the area. The ultimate purpose of the HHC CHNA is to improve community health and to do so in an effective and efficient way. The supporting objectives are to do the following: 1. Enhance Community Engagement and Better Incorporate the Consumer's Voice - CHNA/CHIP process leads to continuous and trusting feedback loops with diverse populations and enhances our methods for on-going engagement with the communities we serve. 2. Grow and Sustain our Community-based Partnerships - CHNA/CHIP process leads to more formalized partnerships with regional and community organizations and collaborations, and more meaningful relationships with key community opinion leaders. 3. Align Community Health with our Equity Value and Across the Regions - CHNA/CHIP process leads to a greater sense of team and purpose within HHC, assures each region is equitably resourced, and that collectively we know and understand more about identifying community health needs and improving health outcomes. 4. Bring Greater Clarity and Social Impact to our Community Health Work - CHNA/CHIP process leads to more effective, justified, measurable, and reportable interventions across our collective CHIPs and inspires and informs our social investment, sponsorship, and donation activities.Approach:The major pieces of the assessment helped to assemble a large list of needs. Major assessment activities are listed below. Note that the survey and qualitative research numbers refer to HHC system CHNA activities not solely this hospital. * Data analysis an extensive set of Hospital Service Area (HSA) data tables reflecting demographics, Social Influencers of Health, lifestyle characteristics, disease incidence (morbidity and mortality) and others * Qualitative research an in-depth series of 100 stakeholder interviews and 30 focus group discussions * Survey research a bilingual community survey with approximately 600 responses Interestingly, ALL of the needs are important, yet to achieve the ultimate goal of the CHNA, HHC leaders deployed a needs prioritization process to identify a granular list of 12 needs. The prioritization process and other assessment activities are described in the body of this CHNA.Categories of needs:In order to truly affect change and address high-priority needs, needs were identified and categorized into the following groups: * Ones with the greatest opportunity for immediate impact (i.e., the "low hanging fruit" issues for which HHC can take a leadership role and rapidly deploy activities and resources) * Issues supported by the data that have the greatest impact on health outcomes * Needs identified by community as urgent or high-priority concerns * Issues that present the greatest opportunity for collaboration and policy changeThe CHNA is formulated in a way to ultimately impact individuals and families in the service area. To accomplish this, HHC leaders will take CHNA results and deploy a systematic approach to developing the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) an activity critical to achieving this ultimate goal. Some of the initial, well-defined steps to develop and deploy the CHIP include the following: STEP 1 - Culling the Findings Brainstorming with your local collaboratives by answering the following questions: CHNA Immediate Impact findings where is the low hanging fruit? CHNA Greatest Impact findings -- what will most influence health outcomes? CHNA Most Desired Change findings - what change does the community most want? CHNA Forging Opportunities findings - where are the greatest opportunities for partnership? STEP 2 - Organizing the focus areas and assembling your rationale for action STEP 3 - Selecting your Strategies and Interventions STEP 4 Executing and EvaluationAssessment Approach & Methodology Hartford HealthCare (HHC) worked with its assessment partners Crescendo Consulting Group and DataHaven to formalize and deploy a highly inclusive assessment framework. The framework was structured to be welcoming to priority communities and others, steeped in best practices, and designed to triangulate insights. At the conclusion of the process, the local stakeholders developed a succinct, prioritized list of community needs. To do this, the methodology included a mixed modality approach quantitative, qualitative, and technology-based techniques to learn about the human stories and voices while weaving them with the best available data. Crescendo engaged community partners, used data analytics, and invited others to join the discovery process to help describe a positive cycle of change. The assessment activities meet the following goals: * Identify community resources, strengths, and barriers. * Develop a deeper understanding of community health equity and inequalities. * Enable the community to coalesce around, and act upon, the opportunities for population health improvement.The assessment involved substantial qualitative data gathering to highlight local knowledge and expertise, and support outreach efforts for community engagement. The primary qualitative mixed-mode approach engaged policy leaders, key stakeholders, non-profit organizations, health care consumers, the criminal justice system, diversity representatives, people experiencing homelessness, and others throughout the hospital service area. * Health Equity Champions Outreach * Stakeholder One-to-One Interviews * Focus Group Discussions Systemwide, 117 interviews and 62 focus group discussions were held. Conversations with community stakeholders helped us identify weaknesses of programs and resources in the community.

These goals contribute to the organization's strategic and financial direction. The plan utilizes market practice alignment to ensure competitive recruitment and retention.

Jeffrey Flaks President/CEO, HHC See Part V X 13470890 15167794 0 1 1 15167794 Form 990, Schedule L, Part II The organization provides supplemental retirement benefits through an alternative funding arrangement the IRS calls "Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar" (CASD). Although the IRS requires reporting in the loan section of Schedule L, CASD is not an actual loan because no funds are transferred to the executive. Rather, the "loan" treatment applies because after the executive has received retirement benefits, the organization recovers all outlays plus interest. The recovery right is a key advantage of CASD for the organization. Rather than paying retirement benefits to the executive that would never be recovered, under CASD the organization recovers not only it outlays, but also consideration for the time value of money. CASD works as follows:The organization deposits funds into cash value life insurance policies on the executive's life. During life, to the extent the executive fulfills service and vesting requirements, the executive can borrow against the cash surrender values in the policy to supplement retirement income. Policy performance is closely monitored. If policy performance lags, the executive's borrowing rights are reduced to protect the organization's recovery rights. At the executive's death, the policy death proceeds are first used to repay the organization its outlay plus compounded interest (at the IRS long-term applicable federal rate). The executive's beneficiary then receives any projected retirement borrowing the executive did not access during life. Any remaining death proceeds are available to be paid to the executive's beneficiaries. However, Mr. Flaks decided to make a gift of the excess proceeds, estimated to total $15,711,908, to the organization to provide additional funding for the organization's charitable activities.
