HUMBOLDT PARK HEALTH PART V, SECTION B, LINE 5: THE CHNA COMBINED ROBUST PUBLIC HEALTH DATA, COMMUNITY INPUT, EXISTING RESEARCH, EXISTING PLANS, AND EXISTING ASSESSMENTS TO DOCUMENT THE HEALTH STATUS OF COMMUNITIES WITHIN CHICAGO AND SUBURBAN COOK COUNTY AND TO HIGHLIGHT SYSTEMIC INEQUITIES THAT ARE NEGATIVELY IMPACTING HEALTH.PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DATA FROM A DIVERSE RANGE OF SOURCES WERE UTILIZED FOR ROBUST DATA ANALYSIS AND TO IDENTIFY COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS IN CHICAGO AND SUBURBAN COOK COUNTY. THE ILLINOIS PUBLIC HEALTH INSTITUTE (IPHI) WORKED WITH THE CHNA COMMITTEE AND STEERING COMMITTEE TO DESIGN AND FACILITATE A COLLABORATIVE, COMMUNITY-ENGAGED ASSESSMENT. THE CHNA PROCESS WAS ADAPTED FROM THE MOBILIZING FOR ACTION THROUGH PLANNING AND PARTNERSHIPS (MAPP) MODEL, A COMMUNITY-ENGAGED STRATEGIC PLANNING FRAMEWORK THAT WAS DEVELOPED BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR COUNTY AND CITY HEALTH OFFICIALS (NACCHO) AND THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC). BOTH THE CHICAGO AND COOK COUNTY DEPARTMENTS OF PUBLIC HEALTH USE THE MAPP FRAMEWORK FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT AND PLANNING. THE MAPP FRAMEWORK PROMOTES A SYSTEM FOCUS, EMPHASIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, PARTNERSHIP DEVELOPMENT, AND THREE TYPES OF DATA--SECONDARY DATA, COMMUNITY INPUT, AND SYSTEM ANALYSIS. AHE CHOSE THIS INCLUSIVE, COMMUNITY-DRIVEN PROCESS TO LEVERAGE AND ALIGN WITH HEALTH DEPARTMENT ASSESSMENTS AND TO ACTIVELY ENGAGE STAKEHOLDERS, INCLUDING COMMUNITY MEMBERS, IN IDENTIFYING AND ADDRESSING STRATEGIC PRIORITIES TO ADVANCE HEALTH EQUITY. PRIMARY DATA FOR THE CHNA WAS COLLECTED THROUGH FOUR METHODS:1. COMMUNITY INPUT SURVEY2. COMMUNITY RESIDENT FOCUS GROUPS AND LEARNING MAP SESSIONS3. HEALTH CARE AND SOCIAL SERVICE PROVIDER FOCUS GROUPS4. TWO STAKEHOLDER ASSESSMENTS LED BY PARTNER HEALTH DEPARTMENTS: FORCES OF CHANGE ASSESSMENT AND HEALTH EQUITY CAPACITY ASSESSMENT COMMUNITY INPUT SURVEY: THE COMMUNITY INPUT SURVEY WAS DESIGNED TO UNDERSTAND THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AND ASSETS FROM COMMUNITY RESIDENTS.

CDPH LED THIS ASSESSMENT IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THEIR PARTNERSHIP FOR A HEALTHY CHICAGO, AND CCDPH. 122 RESPONDENTS REPRESENTING 86 ORGANIZATIONS IN CHICAGO AND SUBURBAN COOK COUNTY RESPONDED TO AN ONLINE SURVEY BETWEEN NOVEMBER 2018 AND JANUARY 2019. THE HEALTH EQUITY CAPACITY ASSESSMENT WAS LED BY CDPH, THE PARTNERSHIP FOR A HEALTHY CHICAGO, CCDPH, AND IPHI. CDPH, CCDPH, AND THE PARTNERSHIP WORKED WITH FACULTY FROM DEPAUL AND UIC SCHOOLS OF PUBLIC HEALTH TO DEVELOP A TOOL TO SCORE THE CAPACITY OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEM TO ADVANCE HEALTH EQUITY.

PART V, SECTION B, LINE 22D: THE HOSPITAL DETERMINES THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT THAT CAN BE CHARGED TO THE FAP-ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUALS BY CALCULATING THE UNINSURED PATIENT DISCOUNT AMOUNT AND APPLYING IT TO PATIENT ACCOUNT. THE DISCOUNT AMOUNT IS CALCULATED BY SUBTRACTING FROM 100% THE PRODUCT OF THE HOSPITAL'S COST TO CHARGE RATIO (FROM WORKSHEET C PART 1 FROM THE MEDICARE COST REPORT) AND 135% (MEDICARE COST ALLOWED TO CHARGE TO UNINSURED PATIENTS). HUMBOLDT PARK HEALTH HOSPITAL'S UNINSURED DISCOUNT FOR FY 2022 IS 58% AS ROUNDED FROM THE CALCULATION AS SHOWN BELOW. 2022 COST TO CHARGE RATIO = 31.17%31.17% X 135% = 42.08%100% - 42.08% = 57.92%THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES A 72% DISCOUNT TO UNINSURED PATIENTS. NOTE, THE 72% UNINSURED DISCOUNT PROVIDED TO OUR PATIENTS EXCEEDS THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT UNDER ILLINOIS LAW.

Form and Line Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C: HUMBOLDT PARK HEALTH USES THE FPG TO DETERMINE FREE AND DISCOUNTED CARE. PATIENTS WITH ELIGIBLE ASSETS AND INCOME ABOVE THE 200%, BUT NOT EXCEEDING 600% OF FPG, ADJUSTED FOR FAMILY SIZE, WILL RECEIVE A DISCOUNT ON MEDICALLY NECESSARY SERVICES PROVIDED TO THEM, BASED UPON A SLIDING SCALE ESTABLISHED BY HOSPITAL POLICY.
PART I, LINE 7: THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED ON LINES 7A AND 7B IS THE COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO DERIVED FROM THE IRS'S SCHEDULE H, WORKSHEET 2 INSTRUCTIONS. HUMBOLDT PARK HEALTH USED ITS INTERNAL ACCOUNTING RECORDS TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN LINES 7E AND 7F.MANAGEMENT DOES NOT CONCUR WITH WORKSHEET 3 INSTRUCTIONS IN REGARDS TO INCLUDING THE PROVIDER TAX EXPENSES IN WITH COLUMN (C) TOTAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE, AS WELL AS INCLUDING THE PROVIDER TAX REVENUE IN COLUMN (D) DIRECT OFFSETTING REVENUE. IF THESE WERE REMOVED FROM THE WORKSHEET 3 CALCULATION, NET COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE ON LINE 7B, COLUMN (E) WOULD HAVE BEEN $27,151,238 OR 19.49 PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE. THIS WOULD HAVE INCREASED THE TOTAL NET COMMUNITY BENEFIT EXPENSE ON LINE 7K, COLUMN (E) FROM ($5,621,232) TO $32,772,470 OR 23.53 PERCENT OF TOTAL EXPENSE.
PART I, LINE 7G: HUMBOLDT PARK HEALTH DID NOT INCLUDE ANY COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO A PHYSICIAN CLINIC AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES.
PART III, LINE 2: THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 2, IS THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE REPORTED ON FORM 990, PART IX.
PART III, LINE 3: ALL OF THE HOSPITAL'S PATIENTS AUTOMATICALLY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IF THEY DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE (THEY ARE CONSIDERED "SELF-PAY AND GIVEN 72% DISCOUNT). ONCE THE HOSPITAL DETERMINES THAT A PATIENT HAS NO INSURANCE, THEY AUTOMATICALLY DISCOUNT THE BILL BY 72%. SO THERE ARE NO INDIVIDUALS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND DID NOT RECEIVE ANY. BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WITH INSURANCE THAT MAY NOT HAVE PAID THEIR SHARE/CO-PAY OF THE BILL OR ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS THAT RECEIVED FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE (72% DISCOUNT) BUT DID NOT PAY THEIR 28%. THEREFORE, ZERO HAS BEEN REPORTED IN PART III, LINE 3.
PART III, LINE 4: AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOOTNOTE REGARDING BAD DEBT EXPENSE: ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FOR PATIENTS, INSURANCE COMPANIES, AND GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES ARE BASED ON GROSS CHARGES, REDUCED BY EXPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS PROVIDED TO THIRD PARTY PAYORS, DISCOUNTS PROVIDED TO QUALIFYING INDIVIDUALS AS PART OF OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, AND IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS PROVIDED PRIMARILY TO SELF-PAY PATIENTS. ESTIMATES FOR EXPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS ARE BASED ON PROVIDER CONTRACTS, PAYMENT TERMS FOR RELEVANT PROSPECTIVE PAYMENT SYSTEMS, AND HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE ADJUSTED FOR ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND OTHER TRENDS AFFECTING THE HOSPITAL'S ABILITY TO COLLECT OUTSTANDING AMOUNTS.FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS (WHICH INCLUDES BOTH PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE AND PATIENTS WITH DEDUCTIBLE AND COPAYMENT BALANCES DUE FOR WHICH THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE EXISTS FOR PART OF THE BILL), THE HOSPITAL RECORDS SIGNIFICANT IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS IN THE PERIOD OF SERVICE ON THE BASIS OF ITS PAST EXPERIENCE, WHICH INDICATES THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE.PART III, LINE 6: MANAGEMENT DOES NOT CONCUR WITH PART III, SECTION B MEDICARE, LINE 6 REPORTING INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING UTILIZING ALLOWABLE COSTS FROM MEDICARE WORKSHEET B. IF MANAGEMENT USED THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF COSTS TO CARE FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS, ALLOWABLE COST WOULD HAVE BEEN REPORTED AS $44,238,161 AND THE AMOUNT OF (SHORTFALL) WOULD HAVE BEEN $29,002,894
PART III, LINE 8: COSTING METHODOLOGY USED IS THE MEDICARE COST REPORT WHICH UTILIZES A STEP-DOWN METHOD OF COST ALLOCATION. THIS ORDER OF ALLOCATION FOR OVERHEADS HAS BEEN PREDETERMINED BY MEDICARE AND IS PRINTED OUT ON THE COST REPORT.
