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.

    • 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 2022 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.

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.

      THE THUMB COMMUNITY HEALTH PARTNERSHIP (TCHP) ASSISTED IN THE COLLECTION OF INPUT FOR THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. ASSISTANCE INCLUDED PROVIDING DATA, HOSTING DATA COLLECTION SITES, AND PROVIDING INPUT FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. ORGANIZATIONS THAT WERE INVOLVED INCLUDED COMMUNITY AGENCIES WITH THE EXPERTISE AND HEALTH-RELATED KNOWLEDGE, AS WELL AS OTHERS WHO HAVE EXPRESSED A GENUINE INTEREST IN THE WELLNESS OF THE COMMUNITY. TCHP MEMBERS REPRESENT THE FOUR COUNTIES OF HURON, LAPEER, SANILAC, AND TUSCOLA. ORGANIZATIONAL MEMBERS OF TCHP INCLUDE ALL THE HOSPITALS IN THE REGION, COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH AGENCIES, AND LOCAL PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. ADDITIONAL MEMBERS INCLUDE THE HUMAN DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION, GREAT LAKES BAY HEALTH CENTERS, AND LIST PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES. INDIVIDUALS PROVIDED INPUT THROUGH THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY. VULNERABLE POPULATIONS WERE REPRESENTED IN BOTH SURVEYS. 1. 780 PEOPLE PARTICIPATED IN THE COMMUNITY SURVEY RELATED TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS. OF THE 750 THAT ANSWERED THE QUESTION, MANY REPRESENTED A VULNERABLE POPULATION: 37% RESPONDENTS HAD A MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION, 23% CARED FOR SOMEONE WITH A MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION, AND 61% HAD A CLOSE FAMILY MEMBER OR FRIEND WITH A CONDITION. 2. VULNERABLE POPULATIONS WERE WIDELY REPRESENTED IN THE COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY. OF THE 230 INDIVIDUALS FROM THE SERVICE AREA, 100 INDICATED THEY REPRESENTED A VULNERABLE POPULATION. THE TOP THREE REPRESENTED INCLUDED PEOPLE WITH A MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION, SENIOR CITIZENS, SOMEONE WITH A SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER OR IN RECOVERY, AND LOW INCOME. ADDITIONAL POPULATIONS INCLUDED VETERANS AND VICTIMS OF ABUSE. 2.2% OF THE SURVEY RESPONDENTS WERE MINORS.
      GROUP A, FACILITY 1, SCHEURER HOSPITAL - PART V, LINE 11
      THE CHNA TEAM REVIEWED A NUMBER OF HEALTH INDICATORS RELATED TO A WIDE VARIETY OF ISSUES. THE SERVICE AREA COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY REPORT WAS ALSO REVIEWED AND DISCUSSED BY THE TEAM. USING A GROUP PROCESS OF IDENTIFYING AND GROUPING STRENGTHS AND CONCERNS, THE TEAM ARRIVED AT TWO MAIN PRIORITIES. A NUMBER OF THE TOP ISSUES IDENTIFIED AS PRIORITIES WERE DIRECTLY RELATED TO OBESITY AND ITS LINK TO CHRONIC CONDITIONS SUCH AS DIABETES AND HEART DISEASE. BEHAVIORS CONTRIBUTING TO OBESITY RANKED HIGH AND INCLUDED MENTAL ILLNESS (INCLUDING DEPRESSION). AS INDICATED IN STEP 4 OF THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROCESS, PRIORITIES MUST BE SELECTED TO ENSURE THAT LIMITED RESOURCES HAVE THE GREATEST IMPACT. SELECTION OF PRIORITIES WILL OFTEN RESULT IN MORE COMPLEX AND EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES. IDENTIFYING A LIMITED NUMBER OF PRIORITIES ON WHICH TO FOCUS ALSO ALLOWS COMMUNITY INITIATIVES TO BE DEVELOPED WITH COLLABORATING ORGANIZATIONS. EVALUATION AND PROGRESS CAN ALSO BE MORE EFFECTIVELY MANAGED WHEN THE PRIORITIES ARE FEWER IN NUMBER. THE TOP PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED BY THE TEAM INCLUDED: 1. OBESITY (TO ENCOMPASS PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, WEIGHT MANAGEMENT, HEART DISEASE/STROKE, AND DIABETES) 2. MENTAL HEALTH & MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS DUE TO ITS OVERWHELMING RANKING IN THE SCORING AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO DIABETES, HEART DISEASE AND OTHER CHRONIC CONDITIONS, THE TEAM IDENTIFIED CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION AS ITS THREE-YEAR FOCUS FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. IN ADDITION, THE TEAM CHOSE MENTAL HEALTH & MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS DUE TO THE KNOWN ACCESSIBILITY TO MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCES IN OUR AREA AND OTHER MENTAL HEALTH INDICATORS.
