Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 6A: DEACONESS HOSPITAL PREPARES AN ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT. THE REPORT IS MADE AVAILABLE ON THE DEACONESS WEBSITE AT HTTP://WWW.DEACONESS.COM/CHNA
PART I, LINE 7: A COST TO CHARGE RATIO WAS USED FOR MOST OF THE CALCULATIONS FOR THE TABLE. IRS INSTRUCTION'S WORKSHEET 2 WAS USED FOR THIS CALCULATION. WE DID NOT USE THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO FOR LINE 7G AS IT WAS NOT RELEVANT TO THESE SERVICES. THE ACTUAL COST FROM OUR COSTING SYSTEM WAS USED WHEN AVAILABLE. THE COST TO CHARGE RATIO FOR EACH SERVICE TYPE WAS USED TO ESTIMATE COST WHEN NOT AVAILABLE FROM OUR INTERNAL COSTING SYSTEM.
PART I, LINE 7G: SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES ATTRIBUTED TO PHYSICIAN CLINICS HAVE A COST OF $2,960.
PART I, LN 7 COL(F): BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25, COLUMN (A), BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $0.00.
PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: DEACONESS PROVIDES SUPPORT TO NUMEROUS ORGANIZATIONS THAT FOCUS ON EDUCATION, COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENTS, AND LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT. DEACONESS BELIEVES THAT IN SUPPORTING THESE LOCAL SCHOOLS AND ORGANIZATIONS WE ARE PROVIDING ASSISTANCE IN BETTERING OUR COMMUNITY AND OUR PATIENTS.NORMAL ACTIVITIES SUCH AS OUR HEALTH SCIENCE INSTITUTE IN WHICH LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS LIVE ON CAMPUS AND LEARN ABOUT HEALTHCARE CAREERS HAD TO BE CANCELLED THIS YEAR DUE TO COVID-19. DEACONESS STILL INCURRED COSTS OF $8,715 FOR THE PROGRAM AND PLANS TO HOST THE INSTITUTE IN 2021.DEACONESS DID PROVIDE SUPPORT TO OUR LOCAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TO HOST NUMEROUS LUNCHEONS AND AWARD CEREMONIES THAT PROMOTES LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNITY AND GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT. DEACONESS ALSO PROVIDED SUPPORT TO IMPORTANT COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS LOCAL SCHOOLS AND OUR ZOO TO SHOW OUR SUPPORT OF THEIR MISSIONS.
PART III, LINE 2: THE SYSTEM ESTIMATES THE TRANSACTION PRICE FOR PATIENTS WITH DEDUCTIBLES AND COINSURANCE AND FROM THOSE WHO ARE UNINSURED BASED ON HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE AND CURRENT MARKET CONDITIONS. THE INITIAL ESTIMATE OF THE TRANSACTION PRICE IS DETERMINED BY REDUCING THE STANDARD CHARGE BY ANY CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS, DISCOUNTS, AND IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS. SUBSEQUENT CHANGES TO THE ESTIMATE OF THE TRANSACTION PRICE ARE GENERALLY RECORDED AS ADJUSTMENTS TO NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE IN THE PERIOD OF THE CHANGE. SUBSEQUENT CHANGES THAT ARE SIGNIFICANT AND DETERMINED TO BE THE RESULT OF AN ADVERSE CHANGE IN THE PATIENT'S ABILITY TO PAY, DETERMINED ON A PORTFOLIO BASIS, ARE RECORDED AS BAD DEBT EXPENSE. CONSISTENT WITH THE SYSTEM'S MISSION, CARE IS PROVIDED TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. THEREFORE, THE SYSTEM HAS DETERMINED IT HAS PROVIDED IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS TO UNINSURED PATIENTS AND PATIENTS WITH OTHER UNINSURED BALANCES. THE IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS INCLUDED IN ESTIMATING THE TRANSACTION PRICE REPRESENT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AMOUNTS BILLED TO PATIENTS AND THE AMOUNTS THE SYSTEM EXPECTS TO COLLECT BASED ON ITS COLLECTION HISTORY WITH THOSE PATIENTS.
PART III, LINE 3: DEACONESS HOSPITAL DOES NOT ATTRIBUTE ANY BAD DEBT EXPENSE TO PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY (FAP), THEREFORE NO PORTION OF BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO FAP-ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUALS IS CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT.
PART III, LINE 4: THE FOOTNOTE DESCRIBING BAD DEBT EXPENSES IS INCLUDED IN THE ATTACHED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UNDER FOOTNOTE "CHARITY CARE, COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND ASSISTANCE TO THE UNINSURED" STARTING ON PAGE 11 AND "PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE" STARTING ON PAGE 11.
PART III, LINE 8: THE SOURCE USED TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF MEDICARE REVENUE AND ALLOWABLE COSTS REPORTED FOR PART III, SECTION B, LINE 8: THE MEDICARE TOTAL REVENUE AND ALLOWABLE COSTS WERE ACTUAL BASED UPON THE 2021 MEDICARE COST REPORT.
PART III, LINE 9B: DEACONESS HOSPITAL MAKES A DISTINCTION BETWEEN CHARITY AND BAD DEBT. IN DETERMINING AN INDIVIDUAL OR FAMILY'S ABILITY TO PAY, DEACONESS HOSPITAL EVALUATES WHETHER OR NOT THE RESPONSIBLE PARTY HAS SUFFICIENT RESOURCES FOR PAYMENT. IF AN INDIVIDUAL IS DETERMINED TO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT RESOURCES TO PAY, THEY WILL BE CONSIDERED ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE AND WILL NOT BE PROCESSED THROUGH EITHER INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL COLLECTIONS. ACCOUNTS OF CHARITY CARE PATIENTS WHO ARE UNABLE TO PAY DO NOT RESULT IN BAD DEBT AND ARE NOT COLLECTED UPON.
PART VI, LINE 2: NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROCESS: DEACONESS UTILIZES A VARIETY OF SOURCES TO GATHER DATA ON LOCAL HEALTH CARE NEEDS. WE USE DATA FROM THE UNITED WAY OF SOUTHWESTERN INDIANA'S COMPREHENSIVE NEEDS ASSESSMENT, WELBORN BAPTIST FOUNDATION'S GREATER EVANSVILLE HEALTH SURVEY, COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS WEBSITE, INDIANA STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, NATIONAL CENTER FOR HEALTH STATISTICS, AND THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION COMES FROM OUR OWN ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD SYSTEM AND THROUGH OUR INTERACTION WITH LOCAL SERVICE PROVIDERS AND OTHER NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. THAT INCLUDES "PROMISE ZONE" INITIATIVES THAT KEEP US AWARE OF CHANGING NEEDS IN OUR MOST DISENFRANCHISED POPULATION.
PART VI, LINE 3: PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE: DEACONESS HOSPITAL UTILIZES FINANCIAL COUNSELORS TO EDUCATE, INFORM AND ASSIST PATIENTS AND FAMILIES IN UNDERSTANDING THEIR FINANCIAL OBLIGATION, ABILITY TO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH DEACONESS HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AND PAYMENT OPTIONS. SPECIFICALLY, FINANCIAL COUNSELORS STAFF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, REGISTRATION AREAS, CASHIER AREA, AS WELL AS, FLOAT AMONG INPATIENT AREAS TO ENSURE EACH AND EVERY PATIENT REQUIRING ASSISTANCE IS REACHED. IN ADDITION TO THE PERSONAL AND INDIVIDUALIZED COUNSELING PROVIDED BY THE FINANCIAL COUNSELORS, VARIOUS FORMS OF MEDIA ARE DISTRIBUTED THROUGHOUT DEACONESS HOSPITAL EXPLAINING THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROCESS. ADDITIONALLY, POLICIES FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ARE POSTED WIDELY THROUGHOUT DEACONESS HOSPITAL AND ON THE INTERNET AT WWW.DEACONESS.COM. HTTPS://WWW.DEACONESS.COM/FOR-YOU/PATIENTS-AND-VISITORS/PATIENTS/FINANCIAL-ASSISTANCE. IN ADDITION TO THE VARIOUS PLACES THAT THE PROGRAM IS PUBLISHED, IT IS ALSO REFERENCED ON OUR PATIENT STATEMENT AND PHONE MESSAGE WHEN THE PATIENT CALL THE BILLING PHONE NUMBER.
PART VI, LINE 4: DEACONESS DEFINES ITS COMMUNITY AS ALL PEOPLE LIVING IN VANDERBURGH AND WARRICK COUNTIES AT ANY TIME DURING THE YEAR.VANDERBURGH COUNTY VANDERBURGH COUNTY IS MORE DIVERSE THAN MUCH OF INDIANA IN TERMS OF RACIAL AND ETHNIC CHARACTERISTICS, EVENLY SPLIT WITH REGARD TO GENDER, WITH THE MAJORITY OF INDIVIDUALS LIVING IN AREAS CONSIDERED URBAN. VANDERBURGH COUNTY'S POPULATION OF 180,136 PERSONS IS SIMILAR TO THE STATEWIDE POPULATION, WITH ABOUT 80.6% OF THE POPULATION BEING WHITE, 9.8% BLACK/AFRICAN AMERICAN, 1.4% ASIAN, AND THE REMAINDER BEING OF OTHER OR 2 OR MORE RACES. HOWEVER, VANDERBURGH COUNTY REPORTS A 3.5% HISPANIC POPULATION COMPARED TO 8.2% FOR THE STATE. VANDERBURGH COUNTY IS ALSO ONE OF THE MORE URBAN AREAS WITH A 9.2% RURAL RATING COMPARED TO THE INDIANA AVERAGE OF 27.6%. ACCORDING TO THE 2021 COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS, VANDERBURGH COUNTY RANKS 82 OUT OF 92 INDIANA COUNTIES FOR HEALTH OUTCOMES AND 47 OUT OF 92 INDIANA COUNTIES FOR HEALTH FACTORS. INSTANCES OF VIOLENT CRIME, INJURY DEATHS, SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS, AND CHILDREN LIVING IN POVERTY ARE HIGHER IN VANDERBURGH COUNTY THAN THE INDIANA AVERAGE. THIS INFORMATION MATCHES OUR CHNA DATA.WARRICK COUNTY - CONVERSELY, WARRICK COUNTY RANKS 9 OUT OF 92 INDIANA COUNTIES FOR HEALTH OUTCOMES AND 6 OUT OF 92 INDIANA COUNTIES FOR HEALTH FACTORS ON THE 2021 COUNTY HEALTH RANKINGS. INCIDENTS OF VIOLENT CRIME, INJURY DEATHS, SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS, AND CHILDREN LIVING IN POVERTY ARE SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER THAN THE STATE AVERAGE. WARRICK COUNTY HAS LESS DIVERSITY THAN VANDERBURGH COUNTY AND THE STATE OF INDIANA. MORE THAN 90% OF PEOPLE THERE IDENTIFY AS WHITE COMPARED TO 77% FOR INDIANA. ONLY 1.7% OF THE POPULATION IS LISTED AS BLACK/AFRICAN AMERICAN AND 2.2% AS HISPANIC. THAT'S COMPARED TO STATE AVERAGES OF 9.6% AND 8.2% RESPECTIVELY. WARRICK COUNTY IS ALSO MORE RURAL THAN THE AVERAGE INDIANA COUNTY (29.3% RURAL IN WARRICK COUNTY COMPARED TO 27.6% STATE AVERAGE).
PART VI, LINE 5: THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC WAS PRIMARY PRIORITY AND THE CONSTANT CONCERN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR AS WE PERSEVERED THROUGH TWO SIGNIFICANT COVID-19 WAVES, RECORD PATIENT ADMISSIONS AND TRANSFERS, AND A HISTORIC VACCINATION EFFORT.
