Health Care for Hope We Make the Most of Life Fall 2015 A newsletter published by Donor Network of Arizona Donate Life Day at the Arizona Capitol Pinnacle Awards Desayuno Done Vida Health Care for Hope REGISTER TO BE Contributors: AN ORGAN, EYE & Tim Brown TISSUE DONOR Robbie Glazner Sara Pace Jones DonateLifeAZ.org 1-800-94-DONOR Writers and Editors: Katie Benton Denise Cavero-Hann Ashley Espinoza Alexa Haynes Jacqueline Keidel Kris Patterson Ariana Peery Miranda Reddy Shannon Speshock Donor son and NASCAR driver Joey Gase meets with Tim Brown at Donate Life Day at the Capitol where his mother was honored in the Greetings Garden of Life. From President and CEO, Tim Brown n May, the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) released the incredible news that 500,000 organ transplants have been performed in the United States In this issue since UNOS’ inception in 1987. Of those 500,000, approximately 11,000 occurred Ibecause of Arizona donors who said yes to organ donation. Though none of this would be possible without the generosity of donors and their families, it is inspiring to reflect on all of the connections that must be in place in order for organ, eye and tissue donation and transplantation to occur. If one link is missing, the gift of life may not be shared. 5 donate life day at the arizona capitol During our Health Care for Hope campaign, Donor Network of Arizona collaborated with more than 50 hospitals and health care organizations to educate about organ, eye and tissue donation and inspire people to register. The employees of these organizations are often the same ones who work with DNA to support donor families in their time of grief, who perform life-saving and life- healing transplants and who provide the information and testing needed to ensure these gifts of generosity are honored and shared. These individuals and many others 7 pinnacle awards touch more than one million lives each year through their dedication to donation and transplantation. Beyond the work done by health care professionals, we acknowledge the efforts of countless community and professional partners, including the Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division (ADOT MVD). During our August observance of ADOT MVD Saves Lives Month, we paid tribute to all this agency does to register individuals as organ, eye and tissue donors, serving as an important connection 8 health care for hope between Arizonans and the DonateLifeAZ Registry. I speak often about how the gift of donation begins with a single generous decision, and this choice to share life creates a ripple effect. The decision touches not only the recipients and their families, but it also connects to the countless individuals who work to support donation and transplantation, making us all part of this incredible gift. 15 desayuno done vida Fall 2015 Connection 2 Donor Network of Arizona (DNA) sends special thanks to the following individuals, groups and organizations who have gone the extra mile for donation.

    Medicare Readmission Penalties By Hospital, Year 5 Kaiser Health News Medicare Readmission Penalties By Hospital, Year 5 Medicare will apply these readmissions penalties to reimbursements from Oct. 1, 2016, through Sept. 30, 2017, which is the 2017 federal fiscal year (FY2017). This chart shows the penalties for all five years of the program. Maryland hospitals were not penalized because the state has federal permission to set its own Medicare payment rules. Also exempt are certain cancer hospitals, critical access hospitals as well as hospitals dedicated to psychiatry, rehabilitation, long-term care and veterans. Medicare also did not levy penalties against hospitals that had too few cases to be fairly evaluated.

  • Report on Uncompensated Hospital Costs and Hospital Profitability
    Report on Uncompensated Hospital Costs and Hospital Profitability October 2017 Director, Tom Betlach 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The years of 2011 through 2016 have seen large growth and even larger declines in hospital uncompensated care. From Hospital Fiscal Year (HFY) 2011 to HFY 2013, hospital uncompensated care grew from $500 million to almost $900 million. This increase was followed by a sharp decline from HFY 2013 to HFY 2016. By HFY 2015 and HFY 2016, uncompensated care fell below its HFY 2011 levels. These fluctuations were due in part to state budgetary changes implemented during this time period. Of particular importance was the imposition of a freeze on childless adult enrollment effective July 2011, and its restoration and Medicaid expansion in January 2014. Despite large increases in uncompensated care, total net operating profit remained relatively stable, fluctuating between $554 million and $765 million. This was achieved with the help of the AHCCCS Safety Net Care Pool program, a temporary program designed to help mitigate the increase in uncompensated care associated with the enrollment freeze. Operating profitability varies considerably by hospital type. Both net operating and total margins for rehabilitation and short-term specialty hospitals exceeded 10% in HFY 2016, but margins were negative for long term care hospitals. In HFY 2016, net operating and total margins for critical access, psychiatric, and general acute care hospitals were in between 4.4% and 6.0%. Despite overall margins being higher in HFY 2016, the percentage of hospitals with a positive operating margin and a positive total margin declined. Finally, it is important to note that there are a number of factors that influence hospital profitability and uncompensated care including long-term and short-term business decisions made by hospitals, occupancy rates (which are approximately 60%), the economy, federal and state policies, and changes in the healthcare industry as a whole.

  • Hospital Uncompensated Care and Net Operating Profits , HFY 2011 -2017 ($ in Millions) 1000 919 886 900
    Report on Uncompensated Hospital Costs and Hospital Profitability October 2018 Director, Tom Betlach 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY From Hospital Fiscal Year (HFY) 2011 to HFY 2013, hospital uncompensated care grew from $500 million to almost $900 million. This increase was followed by a sharp decline from HFY 2013 to HFY 2015. By HFY 2015, uncompensated care fell below its HFY 2011 levels and has continued at this lower rate. These fluctuations were due in part to state budgetary changes implemented during this time period. Of particular importance was the imposition of a freeze on childless adult enrollment effective July 2011, and its restoration and Medicaid expansion in January 2014. Despite large increases in uncompensated care, total net operating profit remained relatively stable, fluctuating between $554 million and $765 million from HFY 2011 to HFY 2016. This was achieved with the help of the AHCCCS Safety Net Care Pool program, a temporary program designed to help mitigate the increase in uncompensated care associated with the enrollment freeze. In HFY 2017, net operating profit increased to $919 million, the highest level observed since AHCCCS began writing these reports. Operating profitability continues to vary considerably by hospital type. Both net operating margin and total margins for rehabilitation, short-term specialty, and psychiatric hospitals exceeded 12% in HFY 2017, but margins were negative for long term acute care hospitals. In HFY 2017, net operating and total margins for critical access and general acute care hospitals were between 3.6% and 6.5%. It is important to note that there are a number of factors that influence hospital profitability and uncompensated care, including long-term and short-term business decisions made by hospitals, occupancy rates (which average approximately 60% statewide), the economy, federal and state policies, and changes in the healthcare industry as a whole.
