INTEGRIS BAPTIST MEDICAL CENTER INC

INTEGRIS BAPTIST MEDICAL CENTER, INC. (IBMC) IS A MEMBER OF THE INTEGRIS HEALTH SYSTEM (INTEGRIS HEALTH). INTEGRIS HEALTH IS THE STATE'S LARGEST OKLAHOMA-OWNED HEALTH CARE CORPORATION WITH HOSPITALS, PHYSICIAN CLINICS, MENTAL HEALTH FACILITIES, ASSISTED LIVING CENTERS AND HOME HEALTH AGENCIES THROUGHOUT THE STATE. AS A MEMBER OF INTEGRIS HEALTH AND A NOT FOR PROFIT ORGANIZATION, EACH YEAR IBMC PROVIDES MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF CHARITY CARE TO PATIENTS THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA. WHILE THIS CARE REPRESENTS A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF IBMC'S GIFT BACK TO THE COMMUNITY, IT IS STILL ONLY PART OF WHAT IBMC CHOOSES TO CALL RETURNSHIP. RETURNSHIP EPITOMIZES IBMC'S MISSION OF GIVING BACK TO ITS COMMUNITY. IT TAKES THE FORM OF HUNDREDS OF PROGRAMS AND ACTS OF CHARITY PROVIDED DAILY ACROSS THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA - FREE HEALTH SCREENINGS, SUPPORT GROUPS, MEDICAL SERVICES, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, HEALTH FAIRS AND MORE. IN ADDITION, IBMC PROVIDES SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF UNCOMPENSATED SERVICES. UNCOMPENSATED SERVICES ARE THE COSTS OF PROVIDING FREE AND REDUCED COST CARE. AS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT HOSPITAL, IBMC PROVIDES SERVICES TO EVERYONE, REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY OR THEIR INSURANCE COVERAGE. THUS, IT PROVIDES A MUCH-NEEDED SAFETY NET FOR MEMBERS OF THE IBMC COMMUNITY WHO WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE NO ACCESS TO MEDICAL CARE. CHARITY CARE COSTS ARE BASED ON THE OVERALL HOSPITAL COST TO CHARGE RATIOS. IBMC PROVIDED CHARITY CARE OF $20,315,094. IBMC ALSO PROVIDES CARE TO PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR MEDICAID PROGRAMS FOR WHICH THE ORGANIZATION HAD RECEIVED INADEQUATE PAYMENTS IN PRIOR YEARS. THE SUPPLEMENTAL HOSPITAL OFFSET PAYMENT PROGRAM (SHOPP) WAS CREATED AND IMPLEMENTED BY THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA IN FISCAL YEAR 2012 FOR THE PURPOSE OF ASSURING ACCESS TO QUALITY CARE FOR OKLAHOMA MEDICAID MEMBERS. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ASSESS QUALIFIED OKLAHOMA HOSPITALS A FEE FOR THE SUPPLEMENTAL HOSPITAL OFFSET PAYMENT PROGRAM. THE COLLECTED FEES ARE PLACED IN POOLS AND THEN ALLOCATED TO HOSPITALS AS DIRECTED BY LEGISLATION. THE OKLAHOMA HEALTH CARE AUTHORITY DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT ALLOCATIONS WILL EQUAL OR EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FEE PAID INTO THE POOL BY THE HOSPITAL. THE SHOPP PROGRAM IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN IN EFFECT THROUGH FISCAL YEAR 2025. THIS FISCAL YEAR THE SHOPP PAYMENT HELPED OFFSET COSTS RELATED TO MEDICAID PATIENTS. IBMC'S UNPAID COSTS OF MEDICAID PROGRAMS EQUALED $49,945,783. FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS REGARDING COMMUNITY BENEFIT SEE THE ATTACHED COMPLETE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT ON SCHEDULE O.
