Hospitals Required to Comply
All hospitals recognized as a 501(c)(3), including governmental hospitals. Must complete a CHNA and adopt an
implementation strategy, but are not required to file a form 990. Hospitals with this status should make their assessments and implementation strategies widely available.
If more than one hospital is operated by an organization, each hospital is required to complete a CHNA and adopt an implementation strategy.
![Page 4: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Timing and Frequency of CHNAs
The CHNA must be conducted once every three years, beginning in the hospital’s first taxable year after March 23, 2012.
To be considered conducted, the written report must also be made widely available to the public. Posted “conspicuously.”*
![Page 5: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Conducting and Documenting
![Page 6: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Collaboration – New
Hospitals may collaborate to conduct a CHNA if:the collaborating hospitals define their community to be the samethe report clearly identifies that it applies to the hospitalthe governing body of each hospital adopts the joint report
![Page 7: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Defining Community – New
Hospitals have flexibility in defining the community they serve. The proposed facts and circumstances approach recognizes variance in defining community (e.g. geographic area, target populations, principal function) Community may be defined by a
particular area of specialty or disease. Medically underserved, low-income or
minority populations may not be excluded.
![Page 8: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Identifying Health Needs – New
Hospitals must identify the “significant” health needs of the community rather than “all” needs. Prioritize needs and identify potential
measures, resources and facilities to address them. Hospitals have flexibility for determining what is significant and setting priorities.
![Page 9: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Broad Community Input
Two categories of persons must have input taken into account in conducting the assessment. one nonfederal governmental public
health department members of medically underserved, low-
income and minority populations (or organizations representing their interests)
![Page 10: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Broad Community Input – New
When subsequent CHNAs are conducted, written input received on a hospital’s existing CHNA or implementation strategy must be taken into account. This requires a hospital’s most recent
CHNA remain widely available until its two subsequent CHNAs are adopted and made widely available.
![Page 11: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Implementation
![Page 12: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Collaboration
Hospitals that collaborate on a CHNA may collaborate on an implementation strategy but must clearly identify that it: applies to each hospital outlines and identifies each hospital’s
particular role and responsibilities, including programs and resources it will commit
provides a summary or tool to help the reader locate the strategies that relate to each hospital
![Page 13: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Addressing Significant Needs
Every significant need identified must include a description of how the hospital will address the need or why it will not be addressed. For needs to be addressed, include: the actions the hospital will take the anticipated impact a plan to evaluate the impact identification of the programs and
resources the hospital will commit
![Page 14: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Transition Relief – New
The implementation strategy must be adopted by the hospital’s governing body in the same tax year as the hospital finishes the CHNA. Recognizing that many hospitals will not
be able to meet this initial requirement, the proposed rule adds four and a half months to the original three-year period for adoption of the first implementation strategy.
![Page 15: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Noncompliance – NewProposed penalties for non-compliance.Excused noncompliance. Forgives immaterial failures to comply as well as those that were corrected under two circumstances:
if the infraction is minor, inadvertent and due to reasonable cause and the hospital promptly takes remedial steps
if the infraction is more serious, but is neither willful nor egregious and is corrected by the hospital and disclosed to the IRS
Willful and Egregious Noncompliance that may result in revocation of a hospital’s tax-exempt status.
determined after a review of all facts and circumstances including prior infractions, magnitude and reasons for noncompliance, size and functions of the noncompliant facilities, policies and procedures implemented and followed to comply
![Page 16: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Noncompliance
Facility-level tax If one organization in a multi-hospital
system egregiously or willfully fails to comply, but does not warrant loss of exemption for the entire organization, a “facility-level tax” would be imposed. The tax would calculated as if the hospital was a taxable corporation and the amount of the income tax it would have owed would be the amount owed.
![Page 17: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Final Rule
Comments on the proposed rule due July 5 No firm date on final rule (estimate
October 2013) Rely on proposed rule for guidance until
October 5, 2013.
![Page 18: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The Community Health Needs Assessment Process
![Page 19: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Steps To Conducting A CHNA
1. Define the community2. Identify internal and external partners3. Collect secondary data4. Develop and conduct primary data collection5. Analyze and prioritize primary and secondary data6. Identify and prioritize community health issues 7. Develop and widely disseminate the CHNA report8. Develop and implement a strategy to address
the priority health issues
![Page 20: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
CAUTION: Conserve EnergyCommit to Three
Stakeholders/partners Secondary data sources Formats for primary survey At-risk population groups Routes to disseminate findings Priorities to address Strategies for each priority Three indicators per priority Three year plan
Keep in Mind:
The hard work begins with
implementation.

Step One: Define the Community
The community definition must include Geographical service area Population served Specialty services provided At-risk populations Unique community characteristics Federal designation for medically
underserved Other hospitals in same “community”
![Page 23: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Rationale for PartnershipsMany health care and community organizations benefit from assessmentsMany health care organizations are required or encouraged to conduct assessments
Step Two: Identify Partners

![Page 24: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Step Three: Collect Secondary Data
Definition: existing data collected for another purpose Data are available from local, state and
national resources Data provide the foundation for the quantitative information Establish a baseline Reveal health issues
![Page 25: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Secondary Data Categories
Demographics Health outcomes
Mortality Morbidity
Health factors Health behaviors Clinical care, including access
Social and economic factors Physical environment
![Page 26: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Step Four: Primary Data Collection
Primary data: data collected specifically for the purpose of answering project-specific questions.
After review of secondary data, development of a survey tool should be used to Validate secondary information Fill gaps in data not provided by secondary sources Provide more depth and information about a
specific health issue identified through secondary data review
Provide qualitative information
![Page 27: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Primary Data Collection (cont’d)
Planning considerations: More resource intensive; requires
development, testing and implementation prior to review of results
Collect exactly what you want and need, keep your questions focused (e.g. chronic disease)
Process can be simplified by using existing questions
Individual versus group response
![Page 28: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Community Forums Varied size – can be
large Diverse composition Open invitation Broad-based, open-
ended questions Less formal
Data Collection: Group Responses
Focus Groups Small Homogeneity Invitation-only Specific topic and
focus Requires strong
facilitation
![Page 29: Community Health: From Assessment to Action June 5, 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020117/56649e0e5503460f94af8280/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Step Five: Analyze and Prioritize
Begin with dialogue….

Every organization may have different reasons for collaboration – that is okay – but you need a common goal
Ensure those with authority for resource allocation support the goals and objectives
Find an inspired champion Time is required to build trust and innovate Measure, evaluate
