Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount
BAD DEBT IS CALCULATED USING COSTING METHODS INCLUDING COST TO CHARGE RATIO, USING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO DETERMINE COST OF CARE.

Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense Methodology
THIS IS AN ESTIMATED AMOUNT BASED ON UNINSURED PATIENTS NOT ATTEMPTING TO QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE. BAD DEBT IS INCLUDED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BUT CALCULATED AT COST. FOR THOSE PATIENTS THAT WE BELIEVE TO BE UNABLE TO PAY, WE DO NOT SEEK OUT COLLECTION OF THE BAD DEBT AND THEREFORE BELIEVE THAT THE COST OF THE CARE SHOULD BE INCLUDED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT.

Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote
PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE REDUCED BY AN ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS. IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF PATIENTS' ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE HOSPITAL ANALYZES THEIR PAST HISTORY AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF THEIR MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. MANAGEMENT REGULARLY REVIEWS DATA ABOUT THESE MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE IN EVALUATING THE SUFFICIENCY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SERVICES PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO HAVE THIRD-PARTY COVERAGE, THE CORPORATIONS ANALYZE CONTRACTUALLY DUE AMOUNTS AND PROVIDE AN ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND A PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS, IF NECESSARY (E.G. FOR EXPECTED UNCOLLECTIBLE DEDUCTIBLES AND COPAYMENTS ON ACCOUNTS FOR WHICH THE THIRD-PARTY PAYOR HAS NOT YET PAID, OR FOR PAYORS WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE HAVING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES THAT MAKE THE REALIZATION OF AMOUNTS DUE UNLIKELY). FOR RECEIVABLES ASSOCIATED WITH SELF-PAY PATIENTS (WHICH INCLUDES PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE), THE CORPORATIONS RECORD A SIGNIFICANT PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IN THE PERIOD OF SERVICE ON THE BASIS OF PAST EXPERIENCE, WHICH INDICATES THAT MANY PATIENTS ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PAY THE PORTION OF THEIR BILL FOR WHICH THEY ARE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE STANDARD RATES (OR THE DISCOUNTED RATES IF NEGOTIATED) AND THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY COLLECTED AFTER ALL REASONABLE COLLECTION EFFORTS HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IS CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS.

Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs
THE MEDICARE LOSS SUSTAINED IS A RESULT OF MEDICARE REIMBURSING AT LESS THAN THE OPERATING COST. COSTS WERE OBTAINED USING THE MEDICARE COST REPORT. WE BELIEVE THESE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT.

Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance
THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA UNDER ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY WITHOUT CHARGE OR AT AMOUNTS LESS THAN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES. THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS WHICH QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE.
