Community Benefit Expenditures: 2021

  • All tax-exempt organizations file a Form 990 with the IRS for every tax year. If the tax-exempt organization operates one or more hospital facilities during the tax year, the organization must attach a Schedule H to Form 990. On Part I of Schedule H, the organization records the expenditures it made during the tax year for various types of community benefits; 9 types are shown on this web tool. By default, this web tool presents community benefit expenditures as a percentage of the organization’s functional expenses, which it reports on Form 990, Part IX, Line 25, Column A. (The more commonly heard term, ‘total operating expenses’, which organizations report to CMS, is generally about 90% of the ‘functional expenses’). The user may change the default to see the dollar expenditures.

    Other Useful Tax-exempt Hospital Information: 2021

    • In addition to community benefit and community building expenditures, the Schedule H worksheet includes sections on what percentage of bad debt can be attributable to patients eligible for financial assistance, and questions on the tax-exempt hospital's debt collection policy. When searching a specific tax-exempt hospital in this web tool, Section II provides information about bad debt and the financial assistance policy, and whether the state in which the tax-exempt hospital resides has expanded Medicaid coverage under the federal ACA.

        Is the tax-exempt hospital considered a "sole community hospital" under the Medicare program?NO
    • Information about the tax-exempt hospital's Financial Assistance Policy and Debt Collection Policy

      The Financial Assistance Policy section of Schedule H has changed over the years. The questions listed below reflect the questions on the 2009-2011 Schedule H forms and the answers tax-exempt hospitals provided for those years. The Financial Assistance Policy requirements were changed under the ACA. In the future, as the Community Benefit Insight web site is populated with 2021 data and subsequent years, the web tool will also be updated to reflect the new wording and requirements. In the meantime, if you have any questions about this section, we encourage you to contact your tax-exempt hospital directly.

      • Does the organization have a written financial assistance (charity care) policy?YES
        Did the tax-exempt hospital rely upon Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) to determine when to provide free or discounted care for patients?YES

    • Did the tax-exempt hospital, or an authorized third party, take any of the following collection activities before determining whether the patient was eligible for financial assistance:
      • Reported to credit agencyNot available
    • Under the ACA, states have the choice to expand Medicaid eligibility for their residents up to 138% of the federal poverty guidelines. The Medicaid expansion provision of the ACA did not go into effect until January 2014, so data in this web tool will not reflect each state's current Medicaid eligibility threshold. For up to date information, please visit the Terms and Glossary under the Resources tab.

      • After enactment of the ACA, has the state in which this tax-exempt hospital is located expanded Medicaid?YES
    • The federal poverty guidelines (FPG) are set by the government and used to determine eligibility for many federal financial assistance programs. Tax-exempt hospitals often use FPG guidelines in their Financial Assistance policies to determine which patients will qualify for free or discounted care.

      • If not, is the state's Medicaid threshold for working parents at or below 76% of the federal poverty guidelines?Not available
    • In addition to the federal requirements, some states have laws stipulating community benefit requirements as a result of tax-exemption. The laws vary from state to state and may require the tax-exempt hospitals to submit community benefit reports. Data on this web tool captures whether or not a state had a mandatory community benefit reporting law as of 2011. For more information, please see Community Benefit State Law Profiles Comparison at The Hilltop Institute.

      • Does the state in which the tax-exempt hospital is located have a mandatory community benefit reporting statute?YES

    Community Health Needs Assessment Activities: 2021

    • The ACA requires all 501(c)(3) tax-exempt hospitals to conduct a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) every three years, starting with the hospital's tax year beginning after March 23, 2012. The 2011 Schedule H included an optional section of questions on the CHNA process. This web tool includes responses for those hospitals voluntary reporting this information. The web tool will be updated to reflect changes in these questions on the 2012 and subsequent Schedule H forms.

      • Did the tax-exempt hospital report that they had conducted a CHNA?YES
        Did the CHNA define the community served by the tax-exempt hospital?YES
        Did the CHNA consider input from individuals that represent the broad interests of the community served by the tax-exempt hospital?YES
        Did the tax-exempt hospital make the CHNA widely available (i.e. post online)?YES
        Did the tax-exempt hospital adopt an implementation strategy to address the community needs identified by the CHNA?YES

      Facility , 1 - GARNET HEALTH MEDICAL CENTER. In 2017, the seven Local Health Departments of the Mid-Hudson Region, including Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster, and Westchester Counties, and HealtheConnections created the Local Health Department Prevention Agenda Collaborative with the endeavor of creating the first regional Community Health Assessment for the Mid-Hudson Region. Shortly after, the Collaborative gained the support of 17 local hospitals. The hospitals contributed funds which allowed the Collaborative to contract with Siena College Research Institute to conduct a random digit dial regional community health survey to supplement the Regional Community Health Assessment and to gauge the perception of residents surrounding health and resources in their communities. Responses from 5,372 residents of the Mid-Hudson Region were collected. To further supplement the data collected from the community, Collaborative members held 12 focus groups with service providers to further understand the needs of specific communities and populations, and the barriers they face to achieving optimal health. This document was written by staff at HealtheConnections with the support, feedback, review and input from the collaborative's participating health departments and hospitals throughout the entire process. Along with the primary data collected by the Collaborative through the survey and focus groups, secondary data was compiled to show health indicators for the Region. A narrative was written around each health indicator to contextualize the data and outline how each indicator is related. This document is meant to serve as a reference for key health information for all stakeholders in the Region as well as assist them in identifying and prioritizing the health needs of the Mid-Hudson Region and its communities. Another goal of this project is to further collaboration in addressing key health issues in the Region and to inform the Community Health Improvement Plans of each county and hospital. Input to the Community Health Needs Assessment and Implementation Plan included focus groups, interviews, literature review, and surveys. Organizations providing input included Departments of Health from seven counties, school districts, offices of aging, offices of veteran's affairs, Federally Qualified Healthcare Centers (FQHC's), food banks of the Hudson Valley, etc. Work Groups were formed including behavioral health, workplace wellness, social determinants of health, etc. These work groups were each led by a steering committee comprised of community stakeholders and assisted in determining health priorities.

      Facility , 1 - GARNET HEALTH MEDICAL CENTER. The hospital is addressing the significant needs identified in its most recent CHNA in a variety of ways. First and foremost, the hospital played an active, collaborative role with the county health department to develop the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) which clearly outlines the priority areas chosen and serves as the hospital's implementation strategy. By working closely with the health department and many other community based organizations, we were able to create a comprehensive plan whereby all voted on and agreed to support specific evidence based interventions from the NYS Prevention Agenda that will improve health outcomes in the priority areas of: Orange County - Prevent Chronic Disease & Prevent Communicable Disease Throughout the plan, specific organizations, including our hospital are identified as providing support and/or leadership for individual strategies. The hospital specifically is targeting efforts towards the below strategies. CHIP Focus Area Healthy Eating and Food Security Evidenced Based Strategies * Increase the number of institutions with nutrition standards for healthy food and beverage procurement * Work with school districts to implement multi-component school-based obesity prevention interventions * Increase availability of affordable healthy foods especially in communities with limited access * Screen for food insecurity, facilitate, and actively support referral * Increase the availability of fruit and vegetable incentive programs CHIP Focus Area Physical Activity Evidenced Based Strategies * Implement obesity prevention guidelines utilizing the 5-2-1-0 model with a focus in school districts with high rates of overweight and obese school-aged children CHIP Focus Area Tobacco Prevention Evidenced Based Strategies * Use health communications targeting health care providers to encourage their involvement in their patients' quit attempts by encouraging use of available cessation benefits such as Medicaid benefits when applicable and free smoking cessation classes * Promote Medicaid benefits for tobacco cessation and available free cessation classes to residents, especially those with incomes <$25,000 per year and adults living with a disability CHIP Focus Area Preventative Care and Management Evidenced Based Strategies * Remove structural barriers to cancer screening by working with employers to provide employees with paid leave or the option to use flex time for cancer screenings * Use small media and health communications to build public awareness and demand for breast, cervical and colorectal cancer screenings * Link patients with primary care and ensure access to health insurance to reduce barriers to cancer screening * Connect pre-diabetic patients to local diabetes prevention programs. CHIP Focus Area Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Evidenced Based Strategies * Facilitate access to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PReP) for high risk person to keep them HIV negative * Link and retain persons diagnosed with HIV in care to maximize viral suppression CHIP Focus Area Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) Evidenced Based Strategies * Increase STI testing and treatment In addition, priorities of promoting a healthy and safe environment, promoting healthy women, infants and children, and promoting well-being and preventing mental substance use disorders were identified during the needs assessment process. The CHIP does not focus on these areas as other community agencies are better positioned to directly address these areas in partnership with Garnet Health.
