THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY ADOPTED BY USC VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL ACTIVELY ADDRESSES HEALTH NEEDS THAT WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE CHNA AS PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS. USC VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL PLANS TO MEET THE IDENTIFIED PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS THROUGH A COMMITMENT OF RESOURCES WITH SPECIFIC PROGRAMS AND SERVICES. FOR EACH HEALTH NEED THE HOSPITAL PLANS TO ADDRESS, THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY DESCRIBES: ACTIONS THE HOSPITAL INTENDS TO TAKE, INCLUDING PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES IT PLANS TO COMMIT, PLANNED COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, AND ANTICIPATED IMPACTS OF THESE ACTIONS. THE NEEDS THAT WILL BE ADDRESSED BY USC-VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL THROUGH ITS COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES ARE: - ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE - CHRONIC DISEASES - MENTAL HEALTH - PREVENTIVE PRACTICES - SENIOR HEALTH SELECTED ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAMS THAT HIGHLIGHT THE USC-VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY ARE DETAILED BELOW.

CHRONIC DISEASES USC-VHH Will ADDRESS CHRONIC DISEASE BY TAKING THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS: - PROVIDE CHRONIC DISEASE EDUCATION, SCREENING AND TREATMENT. - OFFER HEALTH INFORMATION AND REFERRALS TO NEEDED SERVICES AT COMMUNITY HEALTH EVENTS. - PROVIDE PUBLIC HEALTH EDUCATION IN THE MEDIA AND COMMUNITY HEALTH AWARENESS EVENTS TO ENCOURAGE HEALTHY BEHAVIORS AND PREVENT CHRONIC DISEASES. - INCREASE KNOWLEDGE OF AND ACCESS TO RESOURCES THAT ADDRESS SYMPTOMS OF CHRONIC DISEASES. - COMPLETE CONSTRUCTION AND OPEN AN INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY CATHETERIZATION LABORATORY TO TREAT HEART DISEASE. MENTAL HEALTH USC-VHH PLANS TO ADDRESS MENTAL HEALTH BY TAKING THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS: - PROVIDE HEALTH EDUCATION AND SUPPORT GROUPS THAT OFFER INFORMATION, RESOURCES AND ASSISTANCE ON MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. - OFFER STEPPING STONES, AN INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT GEROPSYCHIATRIC PROGRAM AT USC-VHH, WHICH IS DESIGNED TO HELP RELIEVE EMOTIONAL AND PERSONAL DISTRESS FOR INDIVIDUALS AGE 50 AND OLDER. - DEVELOP PARTNERSHIPS AMONG USC MENTAL HEALTH SPECIALISTS, PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS, ADDICTION COUNSELORS AND COMMUNITY-BASED MENTAL HEALTH SERVICE PROVIDERS TO INCREASE SCREENING AND TREATMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS. - COLLABORATE WITH LOCAL MENTAL HEALTH ADVOCACY GROUPS TO PROVIDE EDUCATION TO IDENTIFY AND RESPOND TO SIGNS OF MENTAL ILLNESS. PREVENTIVE PRACTICES USC-VHH PLANS TO ADDRESS PREVENTIVE PRACTICES BY TAKING THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS: - DEVELOP FREE AND LOW-COST EDUCATIONAL HEALTH-CARE PROGRAMS THAT FOCUS ON HEALTH PREVENTION, PRENATAL CARE, PARENTING AND INFANT CARE. - PROVIDE SUPPORT GROUPS AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC AT NO CHARGE. - EDUCATE PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS ABOUT PREVENTIVE PRACTICE OFFERINGS. - PROVIDE LOW COST AND NO COST IMMUNIZATIONS AND VACCINES (INCLUDING FLU AND COVID-19).

OTHER HEALTH NEEDS WERE IDENTIFIED BUT ARE NOT SPECIFICALLY ADDRESSED IN THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. THESE INCLUDE: DENTAL HEALTH, ECONOMIC INSECURITY, OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY, SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS, AND SUBSTANCE USE AND MISUSE. WHILE THESE ISSUES ARE ADDRESSED ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS IN THE NORMAL COURSE OF OPERATIONS, THE HOSPITAL HAS CHOSEN NOT TO FOCUS THIS IMPLEMENTATION PLAN ON THESE OTHER NEEDS AS IT BELIEVES THAT IT CAN HAVE A GREATER IMPACT ON THE PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS THAT WERE SELECTED. THESE OTHER HEALTH NEEDS ARE LESS ALIGNED WITH THE HOSPITAL'S STRATEGIC INITIATIVES. PART V, SECTION B, LINE 16(A)-(C): HTTPS://USCVHH.ORG/PATIENTS-AND-VISITORS/FINANCIAL-INFORMATION PART V, SECTION B, LINE 16(J): PLEASE REFER TO PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE IN PART VI. PART V, SECTION B, LINE 20(E): THE HOSPITAL NOTIFIED INDIVIDUALS OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY IN COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE INDIVIDUALS REGARDING THE INDIVIDUALS' BILLS. PART I, LINE 3C: THE DISCOUNT AMOUNT IS BASED ON FAMILY INCOME COMPARED TO THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL ("FPL") FOR THE CURRENT YEAR. PATIENTS WITH FAMILY INCOME UNDER 200% FPL WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE CARE FOR THE DATES OF SERVICES FOR WHICH AN APPLICATION IS COMPLETED. UNINSURED OR UNDER-INSURED PATIENTS WITH FAMILY INCOME BETWEEN 201% AND 400% FPL WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR CARE AT A SLIDING SCALE DISCOUNT. UNINSURED PATIENTS WHOSE FAMILY INCOME EXCEEDS 400% OF THE FPL WILL RECEIVE THE COMPACT DISCOUNTED RATE. IF IT IS DETERMINED THAT THE FAMILY INCOME IS ABOVE 400% OF THE FPL, THE HOSPITAL MAY STILL CONSIDER THE PATIENT ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND REQUIRE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BE PROVIDED: INDIVIDUAL OR FAMILY NET WORTH, INCLUDING ASSETS, BOTH LIQUID AND NON-LIQUID, LIABILITIES AND CLAIMS AGAINST ASSETS; EMPLOYMENT STATUS WILL BE CONSIDERED IN THE CONTEXT OF WHETHER THE LIKELIHOOD OF FUTURE EARNINGS WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO MEET THE COST OF PAYING FOR HEALTHCARE SERVICES WITHIN A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME; UNUSUAL EXPENSES OR LIABILITIES; AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AS REQUIRED FOR SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES. PART I, LINE 7: A COST TO CHARGE RATIO DERIVED FROM WORKSHEET 2 WAS USED FOR LINE 7A. A COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM WAS USED FOR LINES 7B, 7F AND 7G. THE OTHER LINES WERE CALCULATED BASED ON ACTUAL COSTS. THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN PART I, LINE 7 FOLLOW THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS BY ADDRESSING ALL PATIENT SEGMENTS. PART II, LINE 2: COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES IMPROVE HEALTH AND WELLBEING BY ENHANCING SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. THESE ACTIVITIES HELP ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH PROBLEMS OR THE DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH, SUCH AS EDUCATION, HOMELESSNESS, POVERTY, NEIGHBORHOOD CONDITIONS, AND THE ENVIRONMENT. USC VHH REPRESENTATIVES PARTICIPATED IN SEVERAL AREA ECONOMIC COUNCILS AND CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE, ADDRESSING ISSUES THAT IMPACTED COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT AND SAFETY. WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT IS AN IMPORTANT COMMUNITY BUILDING OBJECTIVE. USC VHH PARTICIPATED IN AND SUPPORTED COMMUNITY PROGRAMS THAT ENCOURAGED CAREERS IN THE HEALTH PROFESSIONS. HEALTHCARE DAY OF DISCOVERY - PROVIDES A DAY-LONG OVERVIEW OF SEVERAL HEALTH CARE CAREER PATHS, THE EDUCATION REQUIRED TO PURSUE THOSE PATHS, AND A GLANCE INTO THE DAY-TO-DAY DUTIES OF INDIVIDUALS PERFORMING THOSE JOBS. TWO EVENTS ARE HELD EACH YEAR, ONE FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AND ONE FOR GLENDALE COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS. USC BOVARD SCHOLARS VHH SITE VISIT - PROVIDES OUTSTANDING STUDENTS WITH FINANCIAL NEED TO ACHIEVE ACADEMIC AND CAREER SUCCESS. PART III, LINE 2: THE DETERMINATION OF CHARITY CARE GENERALLY SHOULD BE MADE AT THE TIME OF ADMISSION, OR SHORTLY THEREAFTER. HOWEVER, EVENTS AFTER DISCHARGE MAY CHANGE THE ABILITY OF THE PATIENT TO PAY. DESIGNATION AS CHARITY CARE WILL ONLY BE CONSIDERED AFTER ALL PAYMENT SOURCES HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED. HOSPITAL CHARGES FOR PATIENT ACCOUNTS IDENTIFIED AS CHARITY CARE AT THE TIME OF ADMISSION OR SERVICE ARE NOT RECOGNIZED BY THE FACILITY AS NET REVENUES OR NET RECEIVABLES. IF PATIENT ACCOUNTS ARE IDENTIFIED AS CHARITY CARE SUBSEQUENT TO THE FACILITY RECOGNIZING THE CHARGES AS REVENUE, AN ADJUSTMENT IS REQUIRED TO CLASSIFY APPROPRIATELY THE REVENUE AND ANY BAD DEBT EXPENSE PREVIOUSLY RECORDED. PART III, LINE 4: THE MAJORITY OF THE HEALTH SYSTEM SERVICES ARE RENDERED TO PATIENTS WITH COMMERCIAL OR MANAGED CARE INSURANCE, OR UNDER THE FEDERAL MEDICARE AND CALIFORNIA STATE MEDI-CAL PROGRAMS. REIMBURSEMENT FROM THESE VARIOUS PAYORS IS BASED ON A COMBINATION OF PROSPECTIVELY DETERMINED RATES PER DISCHARGE, PER DIEM PAYMENTS, DISCOUNTED CHARGES AND REIMBURSED COSTS. AMOUNTS RECEIVED UNDER THE MEDICARE PROGRAM ARE SUBJECT TO RETROACTIVE SETTLEMENTS BASED ON REVIEW AND FINAL DETERMINATION BY PROGRAM INTERMEDIARIES OR THEIR AGENTS. THE GROSS CHARGES MAY BE REDUCED BY EXPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS, WHICH INCLUDE CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS BASED ON AGREEMENTS WITH THIRD PARTY PAYERS OR IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS PROVIDED TO UNINSURED PATIENTS. PROVISIONS FOR CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS AND RETROACTIVE SETTLEMENTS RELATED TO THESE PAYORS ARE ACCRUED ON AN ESTIMATED BASIS IN THE PERIOD THE RELATED SERVICES ARE RENDERED AND ADJUSTED IN FUTURE PERIODS AS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BECOMES KNOWN OR AS FINAL SETTLEMENTS ARE DETERMINED. NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE IS RECORDED OVER TIME DURING THE PERIOD THESE PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS ARE SATISFIED AND AT THE DETERMINED TRANSACTION PRICE, WHICH REPRESENTS THE ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE AMOUNTS DUE FROM PATIENTS, THIRD-PARTY PAYERS AND OTHERS FOR HEALTH CARE SERVICES RENDERED. ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE AMOUNTS REPRESENT AMOUNTS DUE, NET OF IMPLICIT AND EXPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS. IMPLICIT PRICE CONCESSIONS ARE BASED ON MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF EXPECTED NET COLLECTIONS CONSIDERING ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE, TRENDS IN HEALTH CARE COVERAGE AND OTHER COLLECTION INDICATORS. REVENUE FOR PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED OVER TIME IS RECOGNIZED BASED ON ACTUAL CHARGES INCURRED IN RELATION TO TOTAL EXPECTED CHARGES. THE UNIVERSITY BELIEVES THIS METHOD PROVIDES A FAITHFUL DEPICTION OF THE TRANSFER OF SERVICES OVER THE TERM OF THE PERFORMANCE OBLIGATION BASED ON THE INPUTS NEEDED TO SATISFY THE OBLIGATION. GENERALLY, PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED OVER TIME RELATE TO PATIENTS IN OUR HOSPITALS RECEIVING INPATIENT ACUTE CARE OR PATIENTS RECEIVING CARE IN OUR OUTPATIENT CENTERS. THE UNIVERSITY MEASURES THE PERFORMANCE OBLIGATION FROM ADMISSION INTO THE HOSPITAL OR COMMENCEMENT OF AN OUTPATIENT SERVICE, TO THE POINT WHEN IT IS NO LONGER REQUIRED TO PROVIDE SERVICES TO THAT PATIENT, WHICH IS GENERALLY AT THE TIME OF DISCHARGE OR COMPLETION OF THE OUTPATIENT SERVICES. PART III, LINE 8: THE MEDICARE SHORTFALL REPORTED IN PART III, LINE 7 SHOULD BE TREATED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE THE RATES PAID BY MEDICARE DO NOT ACCURATELY REFLECT THE COST OF CARE PROVIDED BY THE HOSPITAL. ACCORDINGLY, THE HOSPITAL MUST SUBSIDIZE THE COST OF CARE PROVIDED TO MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES WITH OTHER REVENUES. THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED TO CALCULATE MEDICARE ALLOWANCE COSTS OF CARE REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 6 WAS USING A COST ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. PART III, LINE 9B: AS PART OF THEIR MISSION, THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES SERVICES AND A BROAD ARRAY OF BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY. THE PATIENT ACCEPTANCE POLICY IS BASED ON THEIR MISSION STATEMENTS AND THEIR COMMUNITY SERVICES RESPONSIBILITIES. ACCORDINGLY, THE HOSPITAL ACCEPTS PATIENTS IN IMMEDIATE NEED OF CARE, REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. THE HOSPITAL DOES NOT PURSUE COLLECTION OF AMOUNTS DETERMINED TO QUALIFY AS CHARITY CARE BASED ON ESTABLISHED POLICIES OF THE HOSPITAL. THESE POLICIES DEFINE CHARITY SERVICES AS THOSE SERVICES FOR WHICH NO PAYMENT IS DUE FOR ALL OR A PORTION OF THE PATIENT'S BILL. SEE ALSO SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 4. PART VI, LINE 2: NEEDS ASSESSMENT: IN ADDITION TO THE TRIENNIAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT, HEALTH NEEDS ARE MONITORED BY: THE BOARD MEMBERS (WHO ARE COMMUNITY RESIDENTS) SHARE COMMUNITY HEALTH CONCERNS WHEN APPROPRIATE; COMMUNITY COMMENTS ON THE TRIENNIAL COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY ARE COLLECTED ON THE HOSPITAL WEBSITE AND ARE MONITORED BY THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND OUTREACH DEPARTMENT; AND USC VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL HAS SYSTEMS TO ENGAGE COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO PROVIDE ON COMMUNITY HEALTH CARE NEEDS. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT OCCURS AND FEEDBACK IS OBTAINED THROUGH SERVICE ON COMMITTEES, INPUT ON NEEDS ASSESSMENTS, TOWN HALL/LISTENING SESSIONS OR INPUT THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA OUTLETS. PART VI, LINE 3: PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE: THE HOSPITAL SHALL POST NOTICES INFORMING THE PUBLIC OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THESE NOTICES WILL BE POSTED IN HIGH VOLUME INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT AREAS OF THE HOSPITAL. NOTICES SHALL ALSO BE POSTED IN THE ADMITTING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENTS. THE HOSPITAL SHALL PROVIDE PATIENTS WITH A WRITTEN DOCUMENT THAT CONTAINS INFORMATION ABOUT AVAILABILITY OF THE DISCOUNT PAYMENT AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES, INCLUDING INFORMATION ABOUT ELIGIBILITY, AS WELL AS CONTACT INFORMATION FOR A HOSPITAL EMPLOYEE OR OFFICE FROM WHICH THE PERSON MAY OBTAIN FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THESE POLICIES.
