DIVIDER II – Proposal Description

1. Provide a complete detailed project description and include equipment bid quotes.

Mercy Hospital South will be requesting approval to acquire an additional Biplane

Imaging System. The new system will be a Siemens ARTIS Icono Biplane IR Pro, and

will be installed in a remodeled Interventional Radiology room. Mercy Hospital South

currently has one neuro-interventional capable Biplane Imaging System. Based on stroke

volumes and stroke program recognition, Mercy Hospital South has identified a need for

two systems running concurrently.

This application has been prepared for a full CON review due to the current Siemens

Axiom ARTIS unit remaining in service.

The project involves purchase of an ARTIS Icono Biplane IR Pro and room shielding

costs. An existing Interventional Radiology room will be remodeled to accommodate the

new Biplane.

Quotes for the following are included in Divider II – Attachments:

Page 11: Certificate of Need Application

3. Provide a legible city or county map showing the exact location of the project.

4. Define the community to be served.

Mercy Hospital South serves patients from a large geographic area throughout

metropolitan St. Louis, including St. Louis County, Jefferson County, Franklin County,

and St. Louis City in Missouri. Additionally, Mercy Hospital South serves patients in

Monroe and St. Clair Counties in Illinois.

As one of the larger hospitals in the St. Louis area, Mercy Hospital South’s Emergency

Department is the 2nd busiest of 25 hospitals in the St. Louis region and the 4th busiest of

138 hospitals in Missouri, with 62,283 emergent patient visits over the past 12 months. It

is one of the few hospitals in the St. Louis area designated as a Joint Commission

Comprehensive Stroke Center and the only Level II Trauma Center in south St. Louis

County and Jefferson County. Mercy Hospital South serves 28 EMS districts, 2 of which

are supervised directly by Mercy Hospital South. Additionally, Mercy Hospital South is

licensed for a total of 767 beds. The hospital employs 2,847 co-workers, discharges

20,820 patients, and performs 12,284 surgeries annually.

Page 12: Certificate of Need Application

5. Provide 2025 population projections for the proposed geographic service area.

Mercy Hospital South’s primary service area includes Jefferson County, St. Louis

County, Franklin County, and St. Louis City in Missouri. The hospital also provides care

for Monroe County and St. Clair County, located in Illinois.

The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services provided the following 2025

population projections for these locations in Missouri. Truven data sources provided the

2025 population projections for Illinois locations.

6. Provide other statistics to document the size and validity of any user-defined

geographic service area.

As mentioned previously, Mercy Hospital South serves patients from a large geographic

area, including St. Louis county, Jefferson County, Franklin County, and St. Louis City

in Missouri. Additionally, Mercy Hospital South serves patients in Monroe and St. Clair

Counties in Illinois.

The 2025 population projections listed in the table directly above for 6 different

geographies show data collected by The Missouri Department of Health and Senior

Services as well as Truven data sources.

Not only does Mercy Hospital South serve a large geographic area and complex patient

base, but it cares for the 2nd most stroke patients in the St. Louis area. Having an

expansive Interventional Radiology program is essential for successful treatment of

complex stroke patients in the St. Louis area.

7. Identify specific community problems or unmet needs the proposal would address.

Mercy Hospital South is the second largest stroke center in the St. Louis region and

recently became a Comprehensive Stroke Center accredited by The Joint Commission in

April 2021. Data for the top 6 stroke patient volume facilities in the St. Louis area for

2019 is as follows:

2019 Calendar Year Stroke Records

Barnes-Jewish Hospital (Comprehensive) 1342

Mercy Hospital South (Comprehensive) 1024

Mercy Hospital St. Louis 760

SSM Saint Louis University Hospital 654

SSM DePaul Hospital (Comprehensive) 666

SSM St. Clare Hospital 520

The Interventional Radiology services are key to supporting our growing community’s

needs in stroke care. Although Mercy Hospital South currently operates a neuro biplane,

the additional unit will allow our team to simultaneously care for 2 stroke activations

expected with future growth, and provide redundancy, as our current unit is aging.

8. Provide historical utilization for each of the past three years and utilization

projections through the first three (3) full years of operation of the new equipment.

Cases

Actual FY19 2,612

FY20 3,052

FY21 2,924

Acquire mid-year FY22 2,939

YR 1 FY23 2,959

YR 2 FY24 2,973

YR 3 FY25 2,973

9. Provide the methods and assumptions used to project utilization.

Projected utilization is based on Mercy Hospital South’s historical experience in the

Interventional Radiology department. Mercy Hospital South expects a strong ongoing

increase in stroke related patient volumes. Additional growth will likely stem from

recent designation as one of the few facilities in the St. Louis region meeting

requirements for being a Comprehensive Stroke Center accredited by The Joint

Commission.

Additionally, with the average age of the population steadily increasing it is expected that

the rate of stroke patients in this geographic area will also increase. Risk factors increase

in an aging population that create more susceptibility to Ischemic, Hemorrhagic, and

Transient Ischemic strokes. The population reaching 65+ will continue to increase

dramatically for the next decade adding to the population at increased risk.

Ms. Alison Dorge Program Coordinator Certificate of Need, DHSS 3418 Knipp Drive, Suite F Jefferson City, MO. 65109

To whom it may concern:

This letter is written in support of the acquisition of an additional Biplane imaging system at Mercy Hospital South, to be situated in the Interventional Radiology department. Mercy Hospital South is the second largest stroke center in the St Louis region. The hospital was a Level 1 Stroke Center program for many years until achieving the Comprehensive Stroke Center status in early 2021. Our program is not only a pillar to our South County region but serves many patients throughout southern Missouri communities.

Mercy Hospital South currently offers the biplane imaging system in a single room. The additional biplane system will not only offer back up in case of downtime, but more importantly will allow for simultaneous stroke interventional cases moving forward. This is essential to support the stroke patients seen at Mercy Hospital South.

Interventional stroke care is a rapidly growing area of emergent patient care that requires not only a team with special expertise but also specialized equipment. A new biplane platform is essential to our ever growing stroke patient volume and critical to the ability of Mercy Hospital South to continue providing high quality care to the patients we serve.

Here at Mercy Hospital South, my role is director of the Radiology department and Interventional Radiology. Because of my role, I am an integral part of this service line and fully support adding another bi-plane imaging system to increase quality, expand service capabilities, and better serve our community.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions concerning this letter of support.

Regards,

B. Kirke Bieneman, MDDepartment of Interventional RadiologyMercy Hospital [email protected]

DIVIDER IV – Financial Feasibility Review Criteria and Standards

1. Document that sufficient financing is available by providing a letter from a financial

institution or an auditor’s statement indicating that sufficient funds are available.

Ernst & Young LLP conducted the external audit for Mercy Health, the applicant’s parent

organization, for fiscal year ending June 30, 2020. The consolidated balance sheet

(included in Divider IV – Attachments) verifies the ability of the applicant to fund this

project.

2. Provide Service-Specific Revenues and Expenses (Form MO 580-1865) projected

through three (3) Full years beyond project completion.

The Service-Specific Revenues and Expenses Form for the projected period is included in

Divider IV – Attachments.

3. Document how patient charges are derived.

Charges for Biplane procedures are already established, as the applicant currently offers

these services. Changes are not anticipated to the charge structure with the addition of

this new unit other than normal inflationary increases in future years.

4. Document responsiveness to the needs of the medically indigent.

Mercy is a Catholic, not-for-profit organization. Collection policies are sensitive to those

patients who do not have the ability to meet full financial obligations. Mercy provides

financial assistance to patients based on need as determined by the Federal Poverty

Guidelines. Patients who qualify for financial assistance will not be required to pay more

than amounts normally billed to individuals who have insurance. The amount billed is a

discounted percentage of the amount due based on federal poverty guidelines.

In FY2021 through 9 months, Mercy Hospital South provided $13.5 million in charity

care (based on the cost of providing services) and $13.1 million in unreimbursed care for

patients with Medicaid coverage.
