Executive Summary

The Community Health Team of MidMichigan Health supports the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) as a key component of improving population health. Our assessments and corresponding plans are a reflection of the purpose and core values of MidMichigan Health. We truly believe that health happens were we live, learn, work and play and that all people should have the opportunity to make choices that allow them to live a long, healthy life, regardless of their income, education or ethnic back ground.

MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch conducted a CHNA using a modified MAPP process that assessed the current health status of the communities the medical center serves based on identified needs according to benchmark comparisons, Primary data collection through community surveying for community input, and the development of a Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). The process included 19 community leaders that submitted information for the assessment to review health data, analyzed public health data, complete and distribute the Wellbeing Survey, identify priorities and set goals for the 2021 CHIP.

1. Community Health Status This assessment evaluated each county identified as the community served by MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch and the community collaborative organizations that were involved in the assessment, which included Ogemaw, Roscommon, Arenac, Isoco and Oscoda counties. Evaluation included demographics and public health data from a variety of sources and agencies including Ten16, District Health Department #2, countyhealthrankings.org, and other county level data.  The combined population of all five counties is 93,234 residents in 2019. Each county ranges from 93.4%-95.2% white, 0.3%-0.7% African American, 1.0%-1.2% American Indian, and 2%-2.4% Hispanic or Latino.  Povery levels for children under 18 years of age range from 24% for Arenac County, to 33% being the highest in Roscommon County. The Average is 19%. Those that are below the ALICE population threshold is between 38% and 47%.  Obesity rates are increasing with Oscoda county at the highest of those evaluated with 39% reporting obesity, and Iosco county with the lowest at 30%.  Roscommon and Arenac counties were in the top five highest invasive cancer incident rates in the state of Michigan.

 Maternal tobacco use ranged from 29% in Oscoda County to 40% in Iosco County. 44% of pregnant moms in Oscoda county received late or no prenatal care, along with 32% in Arenac County.  Each census tract in all five counties ranked in the lowest quartile for health literacy.

2. 2021 Wellbeing Survey for Community Vitality The wellbeing survey was a primary survey that looked at the vitality of the community and assessed the current strengths and themes within each community served. The survey was sent out both electronically, using surveymonkey.com, and also paper surveys were sent to harder to reach populations such as meals on wheels and senior services. 213 people completed the survey electronically, and 121 complete the paper survey.  40% of respondents that postponed or did not receive care when needed was due to cost, while 36% was due to Covid concerns and 24% due to no available appointments.  Residents identified jobs with livable wages, affordable/quality housing, low-cost/free exercise opportunities, healthy food options and access to healthcare as the top 5 needs that if addressed, would improve the health of the community.

3. Community Health Improvement Plan The Community Health Improvement Plan will guide the next efforts of the community health team, while aligning with the strategic plan of MidMichigan Health, for the next three years. The plan includes the efforts of the community collaborative team in order to create partnerships in community health improvement, with the goal of improving health outcomes. Health Priorities:

1. Chronic Disease Prevention & Treatment Areas of high priority are cardiovascular disease, Obesity, Diabetes and Cancer 2. Behavioral Health Behavioral Health will include Substance Use Disorder, Mental health providers and suicide prevention. 3. Access to Care While this is a broad spectrum of possibilities, the ares of focus will be on provider engagement, utilizing and education on Advanced Practice Providers for primary care, healthy food access, exercise opportunities, broadband internet access and health literacy. 4. Prenatal/Perinatal Quality Each of the counties have high rates of maternal tobacco use, and high rates of late/no prenatal care. Focus will be given to these two categories while providing additional support services to new and young mothers within our recently re-opened OB.

Introduction/Framework

The Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), while a requirement every three years under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care act for our tax- exempt status, is an important reflection of MidMichigan Health’s mission, vision, core values and the system’s goal to become a leader in our regions to improve the health of our communities. Community is a foundational element in

9

MidMichigan Health’s strategic plan and we believe that all people should have the opportunity to make healthy choices for a long, prosperous life, despite an individual’s socioeconomic status, education or background. The CHNA, as a key component for identifying top health concerns in a given area, will be vital in accomplishing the four objectives of the “Quadruple Aim”: Improve health outcomes in the community, enhance patient experience, enhance provider experience and reduce the cost of care. The primary purpose for the Community Health Needs Assessment for MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch is to gain an understanding of the health needs caused by disparities in social determinants of health (SDOH) as well as strengths in the given service area. We do so by analyzing a large and specific collection of data and community input in the region which includes Ogemaw, Roscommon, Iosco, Oscoda and Arenac counties. With this understanding of the needs in our communities, we will be equipped to develop a three year strategic plan to improve the health outcomes in our communities and build health improvement capacity for the future health of its residents.

Phase I: Planning Planning for the CHNA strategy includes identifying resources and community stakeholders within the Medical Center’s service area. The community Health specialist participates in community collaborative groups that are comprised of local organizations and community leaders who focus on the health of the residents. These groups include local non-profit organizations and health coalitions that collaborate to achieve mutual health related goals. Phase I includes the development of a strategy and timeline to be approved by the MidMichigan Health Eastern Region Leadership Team, who is being utilized as an internal advisory committee, and the president of MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch.

Phase II: Data Collection/Analysis Data collection will include both primary and secondary data from the West Branch service area. Secondary data will include public health indicators that are collected to determine the demographics and health status of each of the counties serviced by MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch. This data will be

10

compared to benchmarks in the State of Michigan. A health indicator that fails to meet the state benchmark will be identified as a need in the community. Primary data will include the input of those representing the local communities. This local input will be provided through a survey comprised of questions that are intended to provide an overview of the perceived health needs of community members. This survey will be provided through inpatient/outpatient service locations, as well as through an outreach campaign in the community and with local community stakeholders for comparison. Once data is collected, it will then be analyzed to identify specific focus areas for the West Branch service area.

Secondary Data: Over 200 indicators for each of the five counties were utilized to build the data platform for MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch’s service area. (Appendix B). Public Health data was collected and was then compared to a benchmark. If an indicator was out of range of the bench mark, it is indicated in red on the table. This data was categorized to determine areas of focus where health issues existed.

Primary Data: A 2021 Wellbeing Survey was conducted to understand the health needs and the vitality of the communities served. The survey was presented to the CHNA Community Collaborative team for approval and for final suggestions to ensure the survey met the needs of the HSCC and other county agencies in each of the communities served.

The collaborative team then aimed to collect data form across each county. Efforts were made to obtain a sample of data that was representative of each county, and each zip code. Data collection occurred both online and via paper surveys. Surveymonkey.com was used to administer the online survey and the link was sent via email to agencies, organizations and email contact lists from each organization. The survey was also advertised on agency social media pages and local newspapers. The survey was also administered at various locations throughout each county and mailed to organizations with harder to reach populations with limited access to internet. Participants completed the paper surveys at home and returned it in a postage paid envelope. The sample generated a total of 334 survey responses for analysis. This total included 213 online surveys, and 121 paper surveys.

11

Phase III: Prioritizing Focus Areas In phase III of the CHNA, we are utilizing specific analytic practices to determine focus areas and decide our top priorities in order to develop an implementation plan. Each indicator from primary and secondary data will be scaled and categorized into a subset piece of data to determine where our needs are in our community and how we can address them. The community health specialist will work with internal and external sources to determine focus areas and provide a communication document that can be reviewed. This data and focus area prioritization will be presented to the MidMichigan Health Eastern Region Leadership Team for suggestion and approval. When approved, it will be collected and presented to the Board of Directors and placed on the MidMichigan Health website for public view and comment.

PHASE IV: Develop Implementation plan/execution/PDCA Once the data and focus areas are approved, the next step will be to develop a comprehensive, three year implementation plan that outlines specific goals, objectives and strategies to improve the health outcomes of the community. Review of the focus areas and data analysis will determine what our goals will be, and objectives will be created with those goals in mind and strategies to complete

Determinants of Health

Determinants of health are the non-medical factors that incluence health factors and health outcomes. They are the conditions in the environment in which people are born, work, live or play that can affect a wide range of health and quality of life outcomes.

Economic Stability ALICE is an acronym for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed Households that earn more than the Federal Poverty Level, but less than the basic cost of living for the county (the ALICE Threshold). Combined, the number of ALICE and poverty-level households equals the total population struggling to afford basic needs. The number of households below the ALICE Threshold changes over time; households move in and out of poverty and ALICE status as circumstances improve or worsen. The graphs below show the ALICE distribution and unemployment rate by county for Ogemaw, Arenac, Roscommon, Oscoda, and Iosco counties, according to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. Ogemaw County’s

15

unemployment rate is 7.0 percent, which is slightly lower than in 2018, which was 9.7 percent. Roscommon County also saw improvement in its unemployment rate from 11.3 percent in 2018 to now, 7.8 percent. Arenac County’s median household income is $42,290, which is $14,407 lower than the state of Michigan. Iosco County per capita income is $25,264. In Oscoda County, 73 percent of students are eligible for free lunch.

Education The high school graduation rate in both Ogemaw County and Iosco County is 91.0 percent. The high school graduation rate in both Arenac County and Oscoda County is 90.0 percent. The high school graduation rate for Roscommon County is 81.0 percent, which is the same as the

16

state of Michigan. Only 6.7 percent of Oscoda County’s population has a Bachelor’s degree. In both Roscommon County (62.4 percent) and Oscoda County (66.7 percent), third graders are not proficient in English, which is higher than Michigan’s percentage, 54.9. In all five counties, over half of 3 and 4 year old’s are not enrolled in preschool.

Access to Care

Affordable, quality health care is essential to physical, social and mental health. It is important to ensure that providers offer affordable care, be available to patients, that patients understand the care they are receiving and that the community is able to obtain that care. In addition, it is equally important for the community to be able to have access to other preventative measures outside of the physical care they receive from a provider, such as access to healthy and affordable food options and opportunities for regular physical activity that is important for managing health.

Access to Health Services The graphs below show the primary care provider rate in Ogemaw, Arenac, Roscommon, Oscoda, and Iosco counties. Oscoda’s primary care provider rate is the highest of the five counties at 4,140:1 compared to the Michigan rate of 1,280:1. Additionally, Oscoda’s mental health provider rate is also the highest, at 2,070:1 compared to Michigan’s rate of 370:1. Having a large patient to provider ration can cause barriers to health due to providers not accepting new patients and creating long waiting periods of time to be seen. As shown in the graph below, the non-physician primary care ratios are within the Michigan Benchmarks. It is worth noting that this data is from 2019, the earliest data that is obtainable, and does not reflect the recent work conducted by MidMichgian Medical Center-West Branch from 2019-2021. The perception in the community is that there are no available appointments and long wait times to see a provider. The dashboards at MidMichigan Health prove otherwise, showing appointments available and the ability for current providers to see many more patients. This is an indicator that provider engagement in the community is essential to eliminating misconceptions and will make access to health services widely available.

17

Healthcare Coverage and Health Literacy

Another key component to health is health insurance. Without it, many will be unable to receive the services that they may need to maintain a healthy lifestyle and precent disease. The rate of uninsured adults in all five of these counties is 9 percent or higher, compared to 7 percent for the state of Michigan. The rate of uninsured children was higher than Michigan for 4 out of the 5 counties, except for Iosco which had the same percentage as the state of Michigan (3 percent). Additionally, the increasing rate of the ALICE population is also an indication that there is an increase in the underinsured population as well. Given the ALICE population’s economic status, they are likely to choose a less expensive coverage option with limited coverage and higher deductibles, and also more likely to decline or not have available any dental or vision coverage as well.

Another key component in addition to coverage is the cost of care. In the 2021 Wellbeing Survey, over 40 percent of respondents stated that they postponed or did not receive care within the last 12 months. The top three reasons for not receiving care were cost, covid-19 concerns and no appointment available. Relating to cost, nearly 54 percent of respondents stated that they do not know about MidMichigan Health’s financial assistance policy.

Health Literacy or lack thereof, is an indication that patients and community members may not understand the coverage they are choosing, or may not understand the care they are receiving. This is an indication of a lack of access to education due to proximity to public libraries, media centers and the limited availability of broadband internet access in the rural areas. Each of the census tracts in the communities served by MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch are in the bottom two quartiles for health literacy, as shown on the map below.

Lighter colors indicate areas with lower percent of population with broadband internet.

Health Behaviors

An individual’s behavior can play a role in health outcomes. For example, if an individual quits smoking, his or her risk of developing heart disease is greatly reduced. Out of the 83 counties in Michigan, Ogemaw ranked 72 for health outcomes, Arenac ranked 65, Roscommon ranked 75, Oscoda ranked 82, and Iosco ranked 76. For health factors, Ogemaw ranked 80, Arenac ranked 76, Roscommon ranked 77, Oscoda ranked 79, and Iosco ranked 64. The data to follow is a reflection on health behaviors of these five counties in the areas of health care screenings, substance use, nutrition and exercise.

Preventative Care Of the Medicare population for all five counties, less than 50 percent had a mammogram screening in the past two years. Currently, the female vaccination rate for the Human papillomavirus (HPV) in the state of Michigan is 45.1 percent. Iosco had the lowest rate of the

20

five counties at 19.1 percent. For males, the rate for Michigan is 43.1 percent and Iosco again had the lowest rate of the five counties at 23.7 percent.

Maternal Infant Health The annual Kids Count report from the Annie E. Casey Foundation measures 16 indicators of childhood well-being, from the rate of low birth weights and teen pregnancy to third-grade reading abilities and the prevalence of single-parent families. Four of the counties in the West Branch area were around 30 percent for the less than adequate prenatal care indicator, but Iosco was much higher at 51 percent.

Maternal Tobacco use during pregnancy can cause tissue damage in the unborn baby and cause lung and brain issues. Some studies also suggest a relationship between tobacco use and miscarriage according to the CDC. Maternal tobacco use in Ogemaw county rated above 30 percent, while Iosco county reported above4 0 percent and Oscoda with the lowest rate at 29 percent, which is still more than twice the Michigan average of 14 percent.

Late or no prenatal care is already higher in Michigan than many other states with a rate of 14 percent, and counties such as Iosco have rates of late/no prenatal care near 45 percent. This means that nearly half of all pregnant mothers in that particular county are not receiving prenatal care until the third trimester of their pregnancy, or they aren’t receiving care at all. Following Iosco County is Arenac (36 percent), Ogemaw (30 percent), Roscommon (31 percent) and lastly Oscoda (29 percent).

21

Substance Use According to County Health Rankings, the percentage of adults who reported excessive drinking are as follows, Ogemaw (18 percent), Arenac (18 percent), Roscommon (16 percent), Oscoda (17 percent), and Iosco (17 percent). All were lower than Michigan, which is 20 percent. The percentage of adults that reported cigarette smoking was, Ogemaw (19 percent), Arenac (18 percent), Roscommon (17 percent), Oscoda (17 percent), and Iosco (17 percent). All were lower than Michigan except Ogemaw, which was the same (19 percent). The percentage of births to mothers who smoked during pregnancy was almost double the Michigan rate for each county, Ogemaw (30.6 percent), Arenac (33.9 percent), Roscommon (36.1 percent), Oscoda (30.7 percent), and Iosco (34.2 percent), compared to Michigan’s rate of 14.4 percent.

22

Nutrition and Exercise The food insecurity rate for all counties was the same as Michigan, at 14 percent, except for Roscommon where it was 15 percent. Both Ogemaw (68 percent) and Arenac (70 percent) had significantly lower percentages of access to exercise opportunities compared to Michigan (84 percent).

A lack of physical activity can lead to many risk factors for heart disease such as obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes. Regular physical activity has many physical, mental and social benefits, however, many people in the MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch service area are not getting enough of it. Physical inactivity remains high and is trending upwards in each of the counties assessed. Roscommon County has the highest rate of physical inactivity with 38 percent, followed by Ogemaw (34 percent), Arenac, Iosco and Oscoda (28 percent).

23

24

Health Conditions

Many public health and health care interventions focus on changing individual behaviors such as substance abuse, diet and physical activity. Positive changes in individual behavior can reduce the rates of chronic disease in this country.

Chronic Conditions & Mortality Rates All counties except Iosco county had a higher percentage of obesity than Michigan’s 31.2 percent average. Ogemaw and Oscoda Counties reported having the highest obesity rates in the counties assessed, both over 39 percent. Oscoda reported having the highest diabetes prevalence in all counties assessed with a rate above 15 percent. Heart disease, which has risk factors associated with obesity and diabetes, remains the highest in mortality rates for all five counties. Ogemaw having the highest rate of 265 per 100k, Arenac reporting a rate of 192, Roscommon at 181, Isoco with a rate of 231 and Oscoda with a rate of 218.

25

Mental Health Between 17-18 percent of people in Ogemaw, Roscommon, Arenac, Iosco and Oscoda counties reported having frequent mental distress, higher than the Michigan average of 15%. Frequent mental distress is defined as 14 or more days of poor mental health per month (age-adjusted).

Suicide is the tenth leading cause of death in the country. Suicide rates across Michigan have risen by 33 percent, and for ages 15 to 24, it is now the second leading cause of death. Suicide rates in Ogemaw (29), Oscoda (17), Iosco (31), Roscommon (30), are all far above the Michigan average rate of 14 per 100,000. Arenac county (14), is the only county not above the Michigan average of all of the counties assessed.

Mental health provider: Patient ratios in all counties remain high, particularly in Oscoda (2070:1), Roscommon (1330:1) and Ogemaw (1230:1), compared to the Michigan average of 370:1, despite the high suicide rates, frequent mental distress and high rates of substance use disorder hospitalizations. These five counties have been established as a “treatment desert” for mental health services.

26

Cancer Incidence The four leading sites of new cancer cases per 100,00 population were female breas, male prostate gland, lung/bronchus and colon and rectum. Roscommon and Arenac counties were two of the top five counties in the state of Michigan for all invasive cancer incidence rate per 100,000 with 535 and 503 respectively.

27

Prioritization Process

The community health needs were determined by collecting qualitative primary data and identifying themes and trends in the data. Quantitative data was collected and compared to a state benchmark, and those that compared poorly to that benchmark were prioritized as a health issue. Once the focus areas were identified, prioritization began. Of the Indicators that were identified, the community collaborative group was asked to choose their top three areas of focus. Identified areas of focus were narrowed down to cardiovascular disease, obesity, substance use, food insecurity, access to healthcare, mental health, cancer, prenatal/perinatal quality care, diabetes, maternal tobacco use, chronic lower respiratory disease and broadband internet access. These identified needs were then scored based on a modified Hanlon Method, the standard in prioritizing community health needs. Because MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch does not have an equal market share in the counties assessed, a weighted average was used. Ogemaw county weighing the most, followed by Roscommon, Arenac, Isoco and Oscoda counties.

28

The prioritized health issues were then grouped based on similar indicators. For example, cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes and many forms of cancer have similar modifiable risk factors and can be grouped together as chronic diseases. The top priority areas that have been identified by the MidMichigan Health Team and the CHNA community collaborative team, and reviewed by the population health collaborative team, MidMichigan Collaborative Care Organization board and the MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch board on June 23, 2020 are as follows:

 Chronic Disease Prevention & Treatment  Behavioral Health  Access to Care  Prenatal/Perinatal Quality

Final Steps

The written report will be provided in two parts. Part I will include the data collection, evaluation, analsys, prioritization and focus area approvals. Part II will be the development of the Community Health Improvement Plan. The Community Health Team and the CHNA community collaborative team worked tirelessly to throughout the process to develop the final product that provides an overview of the medical center, the community and the corresponding data, data analysis and focus area prioritization for the community served by MidMichigan Medical Center-West Branch. The 2021 Community Health Needs Assessment will serve as the report to develop the 2022-2024 Community health Improvement plan. This process will will outline evidence based strategies for the health improvement in each of the prioritized focus ares.

29

Improvement Plan

Upon approval of the focus areas from the population health collaborative team, the MidMichigan Collaborative Care Organization board and the MidMichigan Medical Center- West Branch board, the process of developing the Community Health Improvement Plan will begin. Along with the development of the plan, a process to track progress and continues measurements will be conducted on a yearly basis to ensure outcome measures are being strategically addressed. Plans will be modified as needed upon input from the community and the internal and external teams that collaborate in the effort. A continues Plan, do, check, adjust (PDCA) process will take place to report progress and make necessary changes.

Approval of the Community Health Needs Assessment focus areas for 2022-2024 took place on June 23, 2021.

This report will be made publically available on www.midmichigan.org, along with the Community Health Improvement Plan. This plan will also be filed with the Internal Revenue Service using from 990 Schedule H.
