ACCESS TO PRIMARY CARE IS A KEY DETERMINANT OF HEALTH THAT ALLOWS INDIVIDUALS TO ACCESS PREVENTIVE MEASURES AND DISEASE MANAGEMENT, REDUCING THE LIKELIHOOD OF HOSPITALIZATIONS AND EMERGENCY ROOM ADMISSIONS. INDIVIDUALS, WHO RECEIVE SERVICES IN A TIMELY MANNER, HAVE GREATER OPPORTUNITIES TO PREVENT OR DETECT DISEASES DURING EARLIER TREATABLE STAGES.

EMPLOYEES ARE ALSO SUPPORTED BY THE HOSPITAL TO ENGAGE IN PLANNING, EDUCATION PRESENTATIONS, CONSORTIA, SUMMITS, AND MEETINGS WITH COMMUNITY GROUPS.COALITION BUILDING AND ADVOCACY - HOSPITAL REPRESENTATIVES SERVED ON SEVERAL COMMUNITY COMMITTEES AND BOARDS THAT ADDRESSED HEALTH IMPROVEMENT AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND ENGAGED AND ADVOCACY EFFORTS THAT SUPPORTED ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE.WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT - VPH KNOWS THE IMPORTANCE OF CONNECTING WITH THE WORKFORCE OF THE FUTURE. THE HOSPITAL PARTICIPATED IN SEVERAL CAREER DAY EVENTS WITH LOCAL HIGH SCHOOLS TO PROVIDE INFORMATION ON HEALTH CARE CAREERS, REACHING 364 STUDENTS. THE HOSPITAL ALSO PROVIDED PRECEPTORS FOR 2,048 NURSING STUDENTS IN THE 2024. STUDENTS FROM COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES OBTAINED CLINICAL EXPERIENCES REQUIRED FOR THEIR BACHELOR'S AND MASTER'S DEGREES. IN ADDITION, 4 CLINICAL NURSE SPECIALISTS RECEIVED PRECEPTING IN 2024.INDIRECT SUPPORT - VPH IS COMMITTED TO EMPOWERING OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS BY PROVIDING RESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITIES THAT MAY CONTRIBUTE TO THE COMMUNITY'S WELL-BEING. SOME OF THESE EXAMPLES INCLUDE INVITATIONS TO TABLE AND OUTREACH TO OUR SHARED COMMUNITY DURING THE MONTHLY VPH BABY SHOWERS. VPH ALSO PROVIDED IN-SERVICE SESSIONS FOR THE VPH CASE MANAGEMENT TEAM, ENABLING ORGANIZATIONS TO EXCHANGE THE MOST RECENT RESOURCES FOR PATIENTS POST HOSPITAL DISCHARGE. THIS APPROACH SUPPORTS PATIENTS HOLISTICALLY, ADDRESSING THEIR DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH; SOME OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDE MOTHER'S NUTRITION, NORTHEAST VALLEY WIC PROGRAM, NEW ECONOMICS FOR WOMEN, AND VOLUNTEERS OF AMERICA. PART III, LINE 2: IN EVALUATING THE COLLECTABILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THE HOSPITAL ANALYZES ITS PAST HISTORY AND IDENTIFIES TRENDS FOR EACH OF ITS MAJOR PAYOR SOURCES OF REVENUE TO ESTIMATE THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS AND PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS. 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. PART III, LINE 3: NONE OF THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE REPORTED ON SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 3 IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY; THESE ACCOUNTS ARE WRITTEN-OFF TO CHARITY CARE RATHER THAN TO BAD DEBT. PART III, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION'S AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DOES NOT CONTAIN A SEPARATE FOOTNOTE THAT DESCRIBES BAD DEBT EXPENSE. THE FOOTNOTE THAT ADDRESSES "PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE" CAN BE FOUND ON PAGE 9 OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. PART III, LINE 8: THE COSTING METHODOLOGY WAS BASED ON THE 2024 MEDICARE COST REPORT COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO. IT IS THE HOSPITAL'S BELIEF THAT THE SHORTFALL REFLECTED ON PART III, LINE 7 SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THE IRS COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD INCLUDES THE PROVISION OF CARE TO THE ELDERLY AND MEDICARE PATIENTS. MEDICARE SHORTFALLS MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE HOSPITAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TREATING THE ELDERLY IN THE HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY. THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE REGARDLESS OF THIS SHORTFALL AND THEREBY RELIEVES THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE BURDEN OF PAYING THE FULL COST FOR MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES. CARING FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS FULFILLS A COMMUNITY NEED AND RELIEVES A GOVERNMENT BURDEN AS THESE PATIENTS TYPICALLY HAVE LOW AND/OR FIXED INCOMES. MEDICARE DOES NOT PROVIDE SUFFICIENT REIMBURSEMENT TO COVER THE COST OF PROVIDING CARE FOR THESE PATIENTS. PART III, LINE 9B: THE HOSPITAL INITIALLY MAKES ALL REASONABLE EFFORTS TO OBTAIN FROM THE PATIENT OR HIS OR HER REPRESENTATIVE INFORMATION ABOUT WHETHER PRIVATE OR PUBLIC HEALTH INSURANCE OR SPONSORSHIP MAY FULLY OR PARTIALLY COVER THE CHARGES FOR CARE RENDERED BY THE HOSPITAL TO A PATIENT. ONCE ALL INSURERS HAVE ISSUED PAYMENT, AND THE ACCOUNT HAS BEEN REVIEWED BY A CLAIMS ADJUSTER, ANY REMAINING BALANCE IS OWED BY THE PATIENT. WHEN THE HOSPITAL IS NOT ABLE TO COLLECT OUTSTANDING PAYMENTS FROM A PATIENT OR AN INSURER THROUGH ITS OWN REASONABLE EFFORTS, IT MAY WORK WITH AN OUTSIDE COLLECTION AGENCY TO ASSIST IN OUTSTANDING PAYMENTS. FOR ANY PATIENT THAT IS UNINSURED OR HAS HIGH MEDICAL COSTS, AS DISCUSSED IN THE HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY, THE COLLECTION AGENCY OR ANY OTHER AGENT OF THE HOSPITAL SHALL NOT REPORT ADVERSE INFORMATION TO A CREDIT REPORTING AGENCY OR TAKE ANY LEGAL ACTION AGAINST THE PATIENT FOR NONPAYMENT LESS THAN 150 DAYS AFTER THE PATIENT WAS FIRST BILLED. THIS TIMELINE WILL BE EXTENDED IF THE PATIENT HAS APPEALED THE BILL AND THE APPEAL IS PENDING. THE HOSPITAL, COLLECTION AGENCY, OR ANY OTHER AFFILIATE OF THE HOSPITAL CANNOT USE WAGE GARNISHMENTS OR LIEN ON PERSONAL RESIDENCES AS A MEANS OF COLLECTIONS.ALTERNATIVELY, PATIENTS WHO ARE UNABLE TO PAY THEIR BALANCE IN FULL ARE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE MONTHLY PAYMENTS BASED ON THE BALANCE OWED WITH NO INTEREST. THE COLLECTIONS VENDOR WILL MAKE EVERY ATTEMPT TO HAVE THE ACCOUNT PAID IN FULL WITHIN THREE MONTHS FOR ACCOUNTS WITH SMALLER BALANCES, AND 12 MONTHS FOR ACCOUNTS WITH LARGER BALANCES. IF THE PATIENT AND THE COLLECTIONS VENDOR CANNOT AGREE ON A PAYMENT PLAN THE HOSPITAL SHALL CREATE A REASONABLE PAYMENT PLAN, CONSISTING OF MONTHLY PAYMENTS NOT MORE THAN 10% OF THE PATIENT'S FAMILY MONTHLY INCOME, EXCLUDING MONEY SPENT ON ESSENTIAL LIVING EXPENSES. PART VI, LINE 2: THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT INCORPORATED DEMOGRAPHIC AND HEALTH DATA FOR THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE HOSPITAL. SIGNIFICANT HEALTH NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED FROM SECONDARY DATA SOURCES, KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS, AND A COMMUNITY SURVEY. HEALTH INDICATORS WERE CONSIDERED HIGH-RISK HEALTH NEEDS WHEN THEY EXCEEDED BENCHMARK DATA, SPECIFICALLY COUNTY OR STATE RATES OR HEALTHY PEOPLE 2030 OBJECTIVES. PART VI, LINE 3: THE HOSPITAL DISTRIBUTES A PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY OF ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICIES AND OFFERS A CONFIDENTIAL APPLICATION FOR CHARITY CARE OR DISCOUNTED CARE PRIOR TO DISCHARGE. THE HOSPITAL ALSO DISTRIBUTES A WRITTEN NOTICE ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF THE HOSPITAL'S DISCOUNT PAYMENT AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES, ELIGIBILITY, AND CONTACT INFORMATION FOR A HOSPITAL EMPLOYEE WHO CAN PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THESE POLICIES.INFORMATION ABOUT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS ALSO DISSEMINATED AND MADE WIDELY AVAILABLE THROUGH VARIOUS MEANS INCLUDING: (I) MAKING PAPER COPIES AVAILABLE IN PERSON OR BY MAIL UPON REQUEST AND WITHOUT CHARGE; (II) INFORMING AND NOTIFYING VISITORS THROUGH CONSPICUOUS PUBLIC DISPLAY, INCLUDING POSTING NOTICES IN AREAS SUCH AS THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, BILLING OFFICE, ADMISSIONS OFFICE, AND OTHER OUTPATIENT SETTINGS; (III) INFORMING AND NOTIFYING THE COMMUNITY, SUCH AS BY DISTRIBUTING AN INFORMATION SHEET OR SUMMARY OF THE CHARITY CARE POLICY TO LOCAL PUBLIC AGENCIES AND NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS; AND (IV) MAKING AVAILABLE ON THE HOSPITAL'S WEB SITE THE CHARITY CARE POLICY AND A PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY OF THE CHARITY CARE POLICY, AND THE CONFIDENTIAL APPLICATION FORM.ADDITIONALLY, FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS, THE PATIENT WILL BE PROVIDED AN ESTIMATE FOR THE PATIENT FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY THAT WILL BE DUE FOR THE TESTS/PROCEDURES TO BE PROVIDED OR, IN THE CASE OF AN INPATIENT ADMISSION, FOR THE ESTIMATED LENGTH OF STAY BASED UPON THEIR PRIMARY DIAGNOSIS. IF THE PATIENT IS UNABLE TO PAY THE ESTIMATE IN FULL OR MAKE PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS, THE PATIENT WILL BE REFERRED TO FINANCIAL COUNSELING FOR A MEDI-CAL ELIGIBILITY SCREENING BASED ON THE PATIENT'S CONFIDENTIAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION.
