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.

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?

Reported to credit agency Not 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? NO 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? YES 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.

Facility Information
Texas Health Hospital Mansfield Part V, Section B, Line 2: The filing organization was created on August 20, 2018 with the intent of constructing a new hospital facility in the North Texas community of Mansfield, Texas. Construcion of the new facility, Texas Health Hospital Mansfield (THHM), was completed during 2020 and began providing services on December 1, 2020. The four-story, nearly 200,000 square foot hospital has a capacity of 59 beds. At a cost of $150 million, THHM's campus also includes an 80,000 square foot medical office building that offers primary care and specialty practices.
Texas Health Hospital Mansfield Part V, Section B, Line 13h: Effective March 1, 2020, the filing organization's hospital facility (or facilities) augmented their Financial Assistance Policy with a COVID-19 Financial Grace Addendum. Pursuant to the COVID-19 Financial Grace Addendum, uninsured patients treated for COVID-19 related evaluations are to receive free or discounted care depending on the patient's cooperation in submitting necessary financial assistance information. Insured patients tested for COVID-19 are not expected to have out-of-pocket expenses based on insurance community response to waive patient financial responsibility. If a payer unexpectedly fails to waive patient responsibility for COVID-19 related testing, the filing organization will not balance bill patients for any out-of-pocket expenses related to COVID-19. In addition, patients with existing payment plans are provided opportunities for reducing their monthly payments.

Supplemental Information
Part I, Line 6a: "The filing organization was a partially owned subsidiary of Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation (AHSSHC) during its current tax year. During the current year, AHSSHC served as a parent organization to 30 tax-exempt 501(c)(3) hospital organizations and a number of other health care facilities that operated in 10 states within the U.S. The system of organizations under the control and ownership of AHSSHC is known as ""AdventHealth"".All hospital organizations within AdventHealth collect, calculate, and report the community benefits they provide to the communities they serve. AdventHealth organizations exist solely to improve and enhance the local communities they serve. AdventHealth has a system-wide community benefits accounting policy that provides guidelines for its health care provider organizations to capture and report the costs of services provided to the underprivileged and to the broader community. Each AdventHealth hospital facility reports their community benefits to their Board of Directors and strives to communicate their community benefits to their local communities."
Part I, Line 7: The amounts of costs reported in the table in line 7 of Part I of Schedule H were determined by utilizing a cost-to-charge ratio derived from Worksheet 2, Ratio of Patient Care Cost-to-Charges, contained in the Schedule H instructions.
Part III, Line 2: The amount of bad debt expense reported on line 2 of Section A of Part III is recorded in accordance with Healthcare Financial Management Association Statement No. 15. Discounts and payments on patient accounts are recorded as adjustments to revenue, not bad debt expense.
Part III, Line 3: Methodology for Determining the Estimated Amount of Bad Debt Expense that May Represent Patients who Could Have Qualified under the Filing Organization's Financial Assistance Policy:Self-pay patients may apply for financial assistance by completing a Financial Assistance Application Form (FAA Form). If an individual does not submit a complete FAA Form within 240 days after the first post-discharge billing statement is sent to the individual, an individual may be considered for presumptive eligibility based upon a scoring tool that is designed to classify patients into groups of varying economic means. The scoring tool uses algorithms that incorporate data from credit bureaus, demographic databases, and hospital specific data to infer and classify patients into respective economic means categories. Individuals who earn a certain score on the scoring tool are considered to qualify as eligible for the most generous financial assistance under the filing organization's Financial Assistance Policy. As determined by the filing organization, a nominal amount of such a patient's bill is written off as bad debt expense, while the remaining portion of the patient's bill is considered non-state charity. The amount written off as bad debt expense for those patients who potentially qualify as non-state charity using the scoring tool is the amount shown on line 3 of Section A of Part III. Rationale for Including Certain Bad Debts in Community Benefit:The filing organization is dedicated to the view that medically necessary health care for emergency and non-elective patients should be accessible to all, regardless of age, gender, geographic location, cultural background, physician mobility, or ability to pay. The filing organization treats emergency and non-elective patients regardless of their ability to pay or the availability of third-party coverage. By providing health care to all who require emergency or non-elective care in a non-discriminatory manner, the filing organization is providing health care to the broad community it serves. As a 501(c)(3) hospital organization, the filing organization maintains a 24/7 emergency room providing care to all whom present. When a patient's arrival and/or admission to the facility begins within the Emergency Department, triage and medical screening are always completed prior to registration staff proceeding with the determination of a patient's source of payment. If the patient requires admission and continued non-elective care, the filing organization provides the necessary care regardless of the patient's ability to pay. The filing organization's operation of a 24/7 Emergency Department that accepts all individuals in need of care promotes the health of the community through the provision of care to all whom present. Current Internal Revenue Service guidance that tax-exempt hospitals maintain such emergency rooms was established to ensure that emergency care would be provided to all without discrimination. The treatment of all at the filing organization's Emergency Department is a community benefit. Under the filing organization's Financial Assistance Policy, every effort is made to obtain a patient's necessary financial information to determine eligibility for financial assistance. However, not all patients will cooperate with such efforts and a financial assistance eligibility determination cannot be made based upon information supplied by the individual. In this case, a patient's portion of a bill that remains unpaid for a certain stipulated time period is wholly or partially classified as bad debt. Bad debts associated with patients who have received care through the filing organization's Emergency Department should be considered community benefit as charitable hospitals exist to provide such care in pursuit of their purpose of meeting the need for emergency medical care services available to all in the community.
Part III, Line 4: Financial Statement Footnote Related to Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts:The financial information of the filing organization is included in a consolidated audited financial statement for the current year.The applicable footnote from the attached consolidated audited financial statements that addresses accounts receivable, the allowance for uncollectible accounts, and the provision for bad debts can be found on pages 8 through 10.
Part VI, Line 2: A variety of practices and processes are in place to ensure that the filing organization is responsive to the health needs of its community.Such practices and processes involve the following:1. A hospital operating/community board composed of individuals broadly representative of the community, community leaders, and those with specialized medical training and expertise;2. Post-discharge patient follow-up related to the on-going care and treatment of patients who suffer from chronic diseases; 3. Sponsorship and participation in community health and wellness activities that reach a broad spectrum of the filing organization's community; and 4. Collaboration with other local community groups to address the health care needs of the filing organization's community.
Part III, Line 8: Costing Methodology: Medicare allowable costs were calculated using a cost-to-charge ratio.Rationale for Including a Medicare Shortfall as Community Benefit:As a 501(c)(3) organization, the filing organization provides emergency and non-elective care to all regardless of ability to pay. All hospital services are provided in a non-discriminatory manner to patients who are covered beneficiaries under the Medicare program. As a public insurance program, Medicare provides a pre-established reimbursement rate/amount to health care providers for the services they provide to patients. In some cases, the reimbursement amount provided to a hospital may exceed its costs of providing a particular service or services to a patient. In other cases, the Medicare reimbursement amount may result in the hospital experiencing a shortfall of reimbursement received over costs incurred. In those cases where an overall shortfall is generated for providing services to all Medicare patients, the shortfall amount should be considered as a benefit to the community. Tax-exempt hospitals are required to accept all Medicare patients regardless of the profitability, or lack thereof, with respect to the services they provide to Medicare patients. The population of individuals covered under the Medicare program is sufficiently large so that the provision of services to the population is a benefit to the community and relieves the burdens of government. In those situations where the provision of services to the total Medicare patient population of a tax-exempt hospital during any year results in a shortfall of reimbursement received over the cost of providing care, the tax-exempt hospital has provided a benefit to a class of persons broad enough to be considered a benefit to the community. Despite a financial shortfall, a tax-exempt hospital must and will continue to accept and care for Medicare patients. Typically, tax-exempt hospitals provide health care services based upon an assessment of the health care needs of their community as opposed to their taxable counterparts where profitability often drives decisions about patient care services that are offered. Patient care provided by tax-exempt hospitals that results in Medicare shortfalls should be considered as providing a benefit to the community and relieving the burdens of government.
Part III, Line 9b: The hospital filing organization's collection practices are in conformity with the requirements set forth in the 2014 Final Regulations regarding the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 501(r)(4) - (r)(6). No extraordinary collection actions (ECA's) are initiated by the hospital filing organization in the 120-day period following the date after the first post-discharge billing statement is sent to the individual (or, if later, the specified deadline given in a written notice of actions that may be taken, as described below). Individuals are provided with at least one written notice (notice of actions that may be taken) and a copy of the filing organization's Plain Language Summary of the Financial Assistance Policy that informs the individual that the hospital filing organization may take actions to report adverse information to credit reporting agencies/bureaus if the individual does not submit a Financial Assistance Application Form (FAA Form) or pay the amount due by a specified deadline. The specified deadline is not earlier than 120 days after the first post-discharge billing statement is sent to the individual and is at least 30 days after the notice is provided. A reasonable attempt is also made to orally notify an individual about the filing organization's Financial Assistance Policy and how the individual may obtain assistance with the Financial Assistance application process. If an individual submits an incomplete FAA Form during the 240-day period following the date on which the first post-discharge billing statement was sent to the individual, the hospital filing organization suspends any reporting to consumer credit reporting agencies/bureaus (or ceases any other ECA's) and provides a written notice to the individual describing what additional information or documentation is needed to complete the FAA Form. This written notice contains contact information including the telephone number and physical location of the hospital facility's office or department that can provide information about the Financial Assistance Policy, as well as contact information of the hospital facility's office or department that can provide assistance with the financial assistance application process or, alternatively, a nonprofit organization or governmental agency that can provide assistance with the financial assistance application process if the hospital facility is unable to do so. If an individual submits a complete FAA Form within a reasonable time-period as set forth in the notice described above, the hospital filing organization will suspend any adverse reporting to consumer credit reporting agencies/bureaus until a financial assistance policy eligibility determination can be made.
Schedule H, Part III, Section B: Supplemental Schedule to Schedule H, Part III, Section B, Line 8Reconciliation of Schedule H Reported Medicare Surplus/(Shortfall) to Unreimbursed Medicare Costs Associated with the Provision of ServicesTo All Medicare Beneficiaries:The Medicare revenue and allowable costs of care reported in Section B of Part III of Schedule H are based upon the amounts reported in the filing organization's Medicare cost report in accordance with the IRS instructions for Schedule H. On an annual basis, the filing organization also determines its total unreimbursed costs associated with providing services to all Medicare patients. Unreimbursed costs are considered a community benefit to the elderly and are combined into an annual Community Benefit Statement prepared by AdventHealth. The primary reconciling items between the Medicare surplus/(shortfall) shown on line 7 of Section B of Part III of Schedule H and the filing organization's unreimbursed costs of services provided to Medicare patients as reported in the AHS Community Benefit Report are as follows:- Medicare surplus/(shortfall) shown on line 7 of Section B of Schedule H: $ (4,196,839) - Difference in costing methodology: 121,068- Unreimbursed costs incurred for services provided to Medicare patients that are not included in the organization's Medicare cost report: (11,201,430) ------------Total Unreimbursed Costs of serving all Medicare patients per the filing organization's community benefit reporting: $ (15,277,201)As indicated above, the primary differences between the Medicare surplus/(shortfall) reported on Schedule H, Part III, Section B, line 7 and the filing organization's portion of the Company's annual community benefit statement is due to a difference in the costing methodology and differences in the population of Medicare patients within the calculation. The cost methodology utilized in calculating any Medicare surplus/(shortfall) for purposes of the annual community benefit reporting is based upon the cost-to-charge ratio outlined in Worksheet 2 of the Schedule H instructions. The same cost-to-charge ratio is used to determine the costs associated with services provided to charity care patients and Medicaid patients as reported in Schedule H, Part I, line 7. In addition, the Medicare cost report excludes services provided to Medicare patients for physician services, services provided to patients enrolled in Medicare HMOs, and certain services provided by outpatient departments of the filing organization that are reimbursed on a fee schedule. The Company's own community benefit statement captures the unreimbursed cost of providing services to all Medicare beneficiaries throughout the organization.
Part VI, Line 3: The Financial Assistance Policy (FAP), Financial Assistance Application Form (FAA Form), and the Plain Language Summary of the Financial Assistance Policy (PLS) of the filing organization's hospital facility are transparent and available to all individuals served at any point in the care continuum. The FAP, FAA Form, PLS, and contact information for the hospital facility's financial counselors are prominently and conspicuously posted on the filing organization's hospital facility's website. The website indicates that a copy of the FAP, FAA Form, and PLS is available and how to obtain such copies in the primary languages of any populations with limited proficiency in English that constitute the lesser of 1,000 individuals or 5% of the members of the community served by the hospital facility (referred to below as LEP defined populations). Signage is displayed in public locations of the filing organization's hospital facility, including at all points of admission and registration and the Emergency Department. The signage contains the hospital facility's website address where the FAP, FAA Form, and PLS can be accessed and the telephone number and physical location that individuals can call or visit to obtain copies of the FAP, FAA Form and PLS or to obtain more information about the hospital facility's FAP, FAA Form and PLS. Paper copies of the hospital facility's FAP, FAA Form and PLS are available upon request and without charge, both in public locations in the hospital facility and by mail. Paper copies are made available in English and in the primary languages of any LEP defined populations. The filing organization's hospital facility's financial counselors seek to provide personal financial counseling to all individuals admitted to the hospital facility who are classified as self-pay during the course of their hospital stay or at time of discharge to explain the FAP and FAA Form and to provide information concerning other sources of assistance that may be available, such as Medicaid. A paper copy of the hospital facility's PLS will be offered to every patient as a part of the intake or discharge process. A conspicuous written notice is included on all billing statements sent to patients that notifies and informs recipients about the availability of financial assistance under the filing organization's financial assistance policy, including the following: 1) the telephone number of the hospital facility's office or department that can provide information about the FAP and the FAA Form; and 2) the website address where copies of the FAP, FAA Form and PLS may be obtained. Reasonable attempts are made to inform individuals about the hospital facility's FAP in all oral communications regarding the amount due for the individual's care. Copies of the PLS are distributed to members of the community in a manner reasonably calculated to reach those members of the community who are most likely to require financial assistance.
Part VI, Line 4: The filing organization currently operates Texas Health Hospital Mansfield (THHM) a 59-bed hospital in Mansfield, Texas that opened on December 1, 2020. THHM serves the communities of Tarrant County, Johnson County, and the surrounding areas. This is one of the fastest growing areas in North Texas with a growing need for available healthcare. The hospital offers comprehensive services, including 24-hour emergency care, general surgery, women's care, orthopedics, and interventional cardiology. During 2021, the Hospital's patient percentage population was made up of self-pay patients and patients covered under commercial insurance. In 2021, about 75.0% of the Hospital's in-patients were admitted through the Hospital's Emergency Department. The demographic makeup of the Hospital's community is as follows: - Population (approximately) 250,000 - Poverty (Below 100% FPL) 6.6% - Unemployment Rate 4.0% - Pop. Age 25+ with No High School Diploma 9.4% - Uninsured Adults 26.9% - Uninsured Children 11.73% - Food Insecurity Rate 14.4% - Pop. with Low Food Access 71.96%
Part VI, Line 5: "The provision of community benefit is central to Texas Health Hospital Mansfield's mission of service and compassion. Restoring and promoting the health and quality of life of those in the communities served by the Hospital is a function of ""extending the healing ministry of Christ and embodies the Hospital's commitment to its values and principles. The Hospital commits substantial resources to provide a broad range of services to both the underprivileged as well as the broader community. In addition to the community benefit and community building information provided in Parts I, II and III of this Schedule H, the Hospital captures and reports the benefits provided to its community through faith-based care. Examples of such benefits include the cost associated with chaplaincy care programs and mission peer reviews and mission conferences. During the current year, the Hospital provided $132,047 of benefit with respect to the faith-based and spiritual needs of the community in conjunction with its operation of a community hospital. The Hospital also provides benefits to its community's infrastructure by investing in capital improvements to ensure that facilities and technology provide the best possible care to the community. During the current year, the Hospital expended $22,727,788 in new capital improvements. As a faith-based mission-driven community hospital, the Hospital is continually involved in monitoring its community, identifying unmet health care needs and developing solutions and programs to address those needs. In accordance with its conservative approach to fiscal responsibility, surplus funds of the Hospital are continually being invested in resources that improve the availability and quality of delivery of health care services and programs to its community."
Part VI, Line 6: As explained in our response to Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6, Texas Health Hospital Mansfield (THHM or the Hospital) has one member. The sole member of THHM is Texas Health Huguley, Inc. (THH). The members of THH are Texas Health Resources and Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc. (AHSSI). AHSSI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation. THHM is able to draw upon the expertise and leadership of both of THH's health system members in its effort to create excellent patient experiences and offer a broad spectrum of health services needed in its community.During its current tax year, THHM was managed by Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation (AHSSHC). AHSSHC is an organization exempt from federal income tax under IRC Section 501(c)(3). AHSSHC and its subsidiary organizations operate 48 hospitals throughout the U.S., primarily in the Southeastern portion of the U.S. AHSSHC and its subsidiaries also operate 10 nursing home facilities and other ancillary health care provider facilities, such as ambulatory surgery centers and diagnostic imaging centers. Pursuant to a management services agreement, AHSSHC provides management and certain consulting services to Texas Health Hospital Mansfield. Management and consulting services include personnel administration, procurement, health information management, maintenance and security, contracts, financial accounting systems and budget development.The reader of this Form 990 should keep in mind that this reporting entity may differ in certain areas from that of a stand-alone hospital organization due to its inclusion in a larger system of healthcare organizations. As a part of a system of hospital and other health care organizations, the filing organization benefits from reduced costs due to system efficiencies, such as large group purchasing discounts, and the availability of internal resources such as internal legal counsel. Each AdventHealth subsidiary pays a management fee to AHSSHC for the internal services provided by AHSSHC. As a result, management fee expense reported by an AdventHealth subsidiary organization may appear greater in relation to management fee expense that may be reported by a single stand-alone hospital. The single stand-alone hospital would likely report costs associated with management and other professional services on various expense line items in its statement of revenue and expense as opposed to reporting such costs in one overall management fee expense. As the reporting of the Form 990 is done on an entity by entity basis, there is no single Form 990 that captures the programs and operations of AdventHealth as a whole. The reader is directed to visit the web-site of AdventHealth at www.adventhealth.com to learn more about the mission and operations of AdventHealth.
