The surrounding population in zip code 43213 encompassing MCE is made up of 29,835 persons.The 2011 demographic description is as followed: Race/Ethnicity White - 55.7 % Black - 30.9 % Hispanic - 7.3 % Asian and Pacific Islander - 3.2 % Other - 2.9%3 Age Group 18 to 64 years – 63.9% Under 18 years – 23.3% 65 and over – 12.9% The average household income is $49,555, 27% lower than the national average.

This information empowers organizations to determine community benefit programming that will better serve its community. It is believed, with the correct resources to meet the needs of the community, unnecessary hospitalizations can be prevented, public health can be improved and the cost of health care can decline. CHW and Thomson Reuters identified five socio-economic barriers that quantify health access to communities: income, education, culture/language, insurance, and housing. Each barrier has been assigned a numerical score from 1 to 5. A score of 1 represents the least amount of socio-economic barriers (low need).A score of 5 represents the largest amount of socio- economic barriers (high need).The scores are averaged to obtain the final CNI score. The description of how each category was calculated has been italicized.The score for zip code 43213, location of MCE is in bold. Income (3) – percentage of elderly, children, and single parents living in poverty. Those with limited income have fewer visits to primary care due to decisions being made between paying a much needed bill or receiving care. Low income homes may not have insurance, or unable to pay associated costs if they do. Cultural/Language (5) – percentage of Caucasian/Non-Caucasian and the percentage of adults over the age of 25 with limited English. Those whose primary language is not English may not fully understand their medical situation, be confused on discharge instructions, may not be able to read medication labels or understand self-care instructions for chronic conditions. Education (2) – percentage of without high school diplomas. Lack of education can often lead to lack of employment and the lack of health insurance.Without health education, the ability to understand medical information or to recognize symptoms may be impacted. Insurance (4) – percentage of uninsured and the percentage of unemployed. Without health insurance, individuals may forego primary treatment which may lead to hospitalization due to chronic conditions. After hospitalization, those with injuries or chronic conditions may not continue medical care due to costs, which could increase recovery time. If problems persist, the uninsured may have difficulty obtaining health insurance in the future. Housing (5) – percentage renting housing. Increased use of rental housing is associated with transitory lifestyles, an unstable home and an environment unfavorable to health prevention. Most rental units are sub-standard, in high crime areas, lower quality schools and limited food choices and less recreational opportunities. Homelessness was not factored in this score. MOUNT CARMEL EAST COMMUNITY BENEFIT ASSESSMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN PAGE 6 Community need index (map showing color coded severity) The final CNI (3.8) - shows correlation between high need and high hospital utilization. Admission rates in high need areas were two times higher than low need areas in regards to pneumonia, congestive heart failure, and cellulitis.This may be due to the use of primary care or assistance in managing chronic diseases or conditions. Intercity hardship index The Intercity Hardship Index, calculated every ten years, is a comparative analysis of cities in the United States that have a population of 480,000 or more. It began with 55 cities in 1970 and has grown to include 86 cities that were incorporated in

Overall score is a composite of four measures: survival (percentage of patients who leave the hospital and survive at least 30 days after surgery), complications (percentage of patients who avoid the most serious complications, including needing a second operation, developing a deep chest infection, suffering a stroke or kidney failure, and requiring prolonged ventilation), best surgical technique (percentage of patients who receive at least one graft from an internal mammary artery, located under the breastbone, which improves survival), and right drugs (percentage of patients who receive beta-blockers before and after surgery to control blood pressure and heart rhythm, aspirin to prevent blood clots, and a drug after surgery to lower LDL (bad) cholesterol). ValVE REplaCEMEnt RATINGS reflects a hospital’s performance in surgical aortic valve replacement.

Overall score is a composite of two measures: survival (percentage of patients who leave the hospital and survive at least 30 days after surgery) and complications (percentage of patients who avoid the most serious complications, which are the same as for bypass). all data were adjusted based on the health of patients.

    Case Study BODYTOM® PORTABLE, FULL-BODY, 32-SLICE CT SCANNER USE AT MOUNT CARMEL EAST HOSPITAL Improving accuracy and patient outcome in neurosurgery by bringing full CT capabilities to the OR THE CUSTOMER Mount Carmel East Hospital in Columbus, Ohio is well-known for its surgical expertise and commitment to using the latest technology to improve patient outcome. With this drive to be on the cutting edge of surgical technologies, Mount Carmel East became the first hospital in Ohio to feature the BodyTom portable CT scanner in its operating room. Director of the Division of Neurosurgery, Dr. Bradford Mullin, was integral in the decision to utilize the innovative CT scanner. THE CHALLENGES Prior to owning the BodyTom, neurosurgeons at Mount Carmel East were using an O-arm for spinal fusion cases. “With the O-arm, the imaging was not anywhere near as clear. The O-arm is really a fancy C-arm from a lot of different directions that’s reconstructed into three dimensions. You lose bony detail, and as the patient’s body mass index increases, the image degrades more and more. With the BodyTom, you can see edges much better. It has no limitation in number of levels that it can image, where the O-arm does.” Dr. Bradford Mullin, Director of the Division of Neurosurgery Mount Carmel East’s focus on the continuous improvement of patient outcome and reducing the possibility of errors were also driving forces behind the search for a new intraoperative technology. “We had used the O-arm quite extensively for spinal fusion cases.
