- $7.8 billion spent. IHC HEALTH SERVICES, INC. ("HEALTH SERVICES") PROVIDED HIGH QUALITY HEALTHCARE THROUGH ITS SYSTEM OF 23 HOSPITALS (2,850 LICENSED BEDS) AND 443 CLINICS. IN ADDITION TO THE 151,810 INPATIENT ADMISSIONS, 607,620 EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS AND 3.9 MILLION CLINIC VISITS, HEALTH SERVICES PROVIDED MORE THAN $165 MILLION IN CHARITY CARE (AT COST) THROUGH MORE THAN 393,000 CASES. FOR A MORE DETAILED EXPLANATION OF THE ORGANIZATION'S PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN 2024, SEE SCHEDULE O. THE MISSION OF HEALTH SERVICES IS HELPING PEOPLE LIVE THE HEALTHIEST LIVES POSSIBLE. PROVIDING THE HIGHEST QUALITY HEALTHCARE AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE COST TO OUR PATIENTS AND CUSTOMERS IS ONE OF OUR MOST IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS. HEALTH SERVICES PROVIDES SERVICES BASED ON MEDICAL NEED WITHOUT REGARD TO ABILITY TO PAY. AN UNINSURED, LOW-INCOME PATIENT WILL RECEIVE SERVICES FOR NO CHARGE OR A REDUCED CHARGE BASED UPON SUCH PERSON'S INABILITY TO PAY IF, IN THE JUDGMENT OF THE ADMITTING PHYSICIAN, THE SERVICES ARE GENERALLY AVAILABLE AT THE HOSPITAL AND CLINICS AND THE PERSON REQUIRES THE SERVICES. THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR PATIENTS WILL CONTINUE TO BE COMMUNICATED THROUGH ALL REASONABLE MEANS. HEALTH SERVICES HAS ESTABLISHED A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY FOR THE UNINSURED AND THE UNDERINSURED, WHICH OFFERS DISCOUNTS OF UP TO 100 PERCENT OF CHARGES ON A SLIDING SCALE. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS BASED ON BOTH INCOME AS A PERCENTAGE OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL GUIDELINES AND THE CHARGES FOR SERVICES RENDERED. HEALTH SERVICES' FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE GUIDELINES INCLUDE PROVISIONS THAT ARE RESPONSIVE TO THOSE PATIENTS WHO HAVE CATASTROPHIC HEALTHCARE EXPENSES. DURING 2024, THROUGH 393,871 CASES, HEALTH SERVICES' FACILITIES AND PHYSICIANS PROVIDED MORE THAN $165 MILLION IN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE (AT COST) TO PATIENTS UNABLE TO PAY. THIS AMOUNT DOES NOT INCLUDE ADJUSTMENTS FOR UNPAID SERVICES. ADJUSTMENTS FOR UNPAID SERVICES OCCUR IN CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE A PATIENT HAS THE ABILITY TO PAY BUT DOES NOT PAY FOR THE SERVICES RECEIVED, AND THE AMOUNT IS NOT OTHERWISE COLLECTED. IF AN ACCOUNT HAS BEEN INITIALLY IDENTIFIED AS AN ADJUSTMENT FOR UNPAID SERVICES, BUT THE PATIENT LATER IS DETERMINED TO HAVE BEEN ELIGIBLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT THE TIME OF TREATMENT, THEN THE BILL IS NO LONGER CONSIDERED AN ADJUSTMENT FOR UNPAID SERVICES AND IS CHARGED TO CHARITY CARE. HOWEVER, IF IT IS DETERMINED THAT THE PATIENT HAD THE ABILITY TO PAY AT THE TIME OF SERVICE BUT THE ACCOUNT CANNOT BE COLLECTED LATER, OR, IN SOME CASES, THE PATIENT DID NOT COMMUNICATE AN INABILITY TO PAY, IT IS CONSIDERED TO BE AN ADJUSTMENT FOR UNPAID SERVICES. HEALTH SERVICES GENERALLY INCURS SHORTFALLS BETWEEN ITS ESTABLISHED RATES AND AMOUNTS PAID BY MEDICARE AND MEDICAID. HEALTH SERVICES PROVIDES A SIGNIFICANT ARRAY OF ADDITIONAL COMMUNITY SERVICES, INCLUDING OWNING AND OPERATING THREE COMMUNITY AND SCHOOL-BASED CLINICS TO HELP MEET THE NEEDS OF UNINSURED AND LOW-INCOME PEOPLE IN NEIGHBORHOODS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE LACK CONVENIENT ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE. MOST PATIENTS PAY ON A SLIDING FEE SCALE ACCORDING TO THEIR HOUSEHOLD INCOMES, AND MANY QUALIFY FOR HEALTH SERVICES' FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.
