Definitins 1. Average Amunt Generally Billed (AGB): The average f Medicare and all private third-party insurer allwables fr all claims allwed in a 12 mnth perid. 2. Bad Debt: Accunts that have been categrized as uncllectible because the patient has failed t pay fr services rendered and are nt eligible fr CAFA. 3.

3 3 Plicy Pre-Service CHS encurages each patient t pay based n their ability t pay all r a prtin f the patient s estimated balance fr medically necessary services prir t the scheduled service. The CHS Pre-Service team may cntact the patient t btain third-party insurer and ther infrmatin needed t bill fr services and may prvide an estimate f the patient s ut-f-pcket expenses. Fr insured individuals, the estimate is based n the determinatin f the patient specific third-party cverage fr the services. The CHS Pre-Service team may request that the patient pay all r a prtin f the estimated patient balance. If the patient is uninsured, the estimate f the patient s balance is based n the amunt after the CHS uninsured discunt is applied. Cverage Assistance and Financial Assistance Cverage Assistance and Financial Assistance (CAFA) is available t all uninsured Nrth Carlina and Suth Carlina patients receiving medically necessary services in CHS facilities. CHS fllws tw different prcesses based n place f service when determining eligibility fr financial assistance fr uninsured patients. Categry I is fr all patients receiving inpatient r utpatient services with a patient balance greater than r equal t $10,000 wh are reviewed fr CAFA by the Financial Cunseling Department. A financial cunselr will interview the patient and determine if the patient is eligible fr ther cverage pprtunities. If a patient fully cperates with this prcess and n cverage is available, the patient s accunt will be evaluated fr financial assistance based n the patient s husehld financial incme as cmpared t federal pverty guidelines (FPG). Any patient balance due, if any, will be less than the average amunt generally billed as defined belw. T further assist these patients, interest-free payment plan ptins are available fr any remaining balance. Categry II is fr all patients receiving any ther utpatient services resulting in a patient balance less than $10,000 wh are autmatically reviewed fr financial assistance. Each accunt is autmatically reviewed fr a financial assistance discunt prir t billing. Eligibility is based n a Financial Assistance Scre (FAS) frm a third-party vendr that indicates the likelihd a patient lives in pverty. Patients with qualifying accunts will be extended a 100% adjustment and will nt receive a bill. A patient fund ineligible autmatically will be extended a 50% uninsured discunt. Thse ineligible can als apply fr a manual review by dwnlading an applicatin n the CHS website. Fr Emergency Department services, CHS will request a $75 cpay at the time f service. CHS will review balances incurred thrugh the Emergency Department greater than $75 fr financial assistance thrugh ne f the abve prcesses based n the patient balance. CHS will make reasnable effrts t cmmunicate the CHS CAFA plicy t uninsured patients and determine eligibility fr the CHS CAFA prgram prir t any extrardinary cllectin actin. Reasnable effrts include: 1. Wide publicatin f the CHS CAFA plicy and plain language summary f the plicy t include n the CHS website, at CHS facility admissin ffices and n billing statements 2. Applicatin accessible fr dwnlad n the CHS website r available by mail upn request 3. Multiple language translatins f CAFA plicy, plain language summary and applicatin available n the CHS website 4. Oral ntificatin f the CHS CAFA plicy by PFS Custmer Service and/r third-party cllectin agencies 5. A minimum f 3 billing statements. Plain language summary is included with all billing statements.

Ntice includes the plain language summary. 7. Autmated Financial Assistance Scring (FAS) presumptive eligibility prcess prir t patient billing fr uninsured patients. Thse wh are fund ineligible are ntified via a letter with the plain language summary detailing hw t apply fr CAFA shuld they feel their FAS based eligibility was nt accurate. 8. CHS prvides all patients with 240 days frm the first pst-discharge bill date t apply fr financial assistance prir t any extrardinary cllectin actin. All patients have 30 days t make financial arrangements regarding their bill befre an ECA will ccur whether within the 240 day windw r utside the 240 day windw. 9. All ECAs will be suspended if an applicatin fr CAFA is received during the 240 day applicatin windw r 30 day ntice perid. ECAs will nt resume until a financial assistance determinatin has been made and the patient is fund ineligible fr financial assistance. ECAs will be reversed fr any patient fund eligible fr financial assistance. Patients wh submit incmplete applicatins will als have their ECA suspended and will be ntified in writing f the needed infrmatin t cmplete their applicatin and given 30 days t prvide that infrmatin. 10. The CHS Unified Business Office has the final authrity in ensuring reasnable effrts have been made t cmmunicate the CHS CAFA plicy and determine an individual s eligibility and whether an ECA can be initiated. Average Amunt Generally Billed CHS will never bill any financial assistance eligible individual mre than the average amunt generally billed (AGB). CHS uses a lk-back methd t determine AGB based n all private insurer and Medicare allwables fr all claims allwed within a 12 mnth perid. All uninsured patients autmatically receive a 50% uninsured discunt. Patients apprved fr financial assistance receive at minimum a 50% financial assistance discunt in additin t the 50% uninsured discunt which ttals a minimum f 75% ff grss charges. If a patient is still respnsible fr any prtin f the bill after all discunts, the patient s bill will indicate hw the patient may btain infrmatin n hw the bill was calculated t be belw AGB. Remaining balances after all discunts are eligible fr the Chice Outreach interest free payment plan ptin described belw. Hardship Settlement Discunt The Hardship Settlement prgram is a discunt prgram designed t assist any Nrth Carlina r Suth Carlina resident wh has had a catastrphic medical event that has resulted in very large hspital bills in cmparisn t the patient s financial resurces.

A patient seeking a hardship settlement discunt shuld inquire abut this prgram by calling the custmer service department after receiving the patient s first statement. Patient balances must be greater than r equal t $2,500 t qualify fr a hardship settlement. Initial Billing As a curtesy t patients residing in the United States, CHS bills all third-party insurers n their behalf. CHS will assist the patient with all knwn hspital pre-authrizatins and ther apprvals required fr services as a benefit t the patient. The patient is respnsible, hwever, fr all f the insurer s prerequisites fr cvering services. In situatins when services are denied by a third-party insurer, CHS will assist the patient in any appeal prcess with third-party insurers. Fr insured patients, CHS submits a claim n behalf f the patient t the patient s insurance prvider. If there is a patient respnsibility prtin after the third-party insurer pays r denies the claim, CHS will send the patient a minimum f 3 billing statements indicating the balance wed. 4
5 Fr uninsured patients, CHS autmatically applies a 50% uninsured discunt t grss charges and reviews their balance fr financial assistance. Thse receiving partial financial assistance r are ineligible will receive a bill in the mail. Cllectin f Patient Balances CHS reserves the right t utilize utside vendrs t assist CHS and patients regarding balances due and prcess payment plans. When a balance is wed by the patient, CHS expects full payment and cnsiders the accunt t be Self-Pay. 5 An accunt is determined t be Self-Pay if: There is n third-party insurer n recrd. All expected payments frm the third-party insurers have been received. The patient has been uncperative with the CHS Financial Cunseling Department t determine ther cverage pprtunities r financial assistance in accrdance with the CHS CAFA Plicy. CHS will generate at minimum three billing statements and send it t the physical address n file prvided by the patient r representative. Patients wh have pted fr paperless billing will receive a minimum f 3 ntificatins that their billing statements are available in the MyCarlinas Patient Prtal n the CHS website. Each statement includes a plain language summary f the CHS CAFA plicy regarding cverage and financial assistance. CHS will perfrm Medicaid eligibility checks n all self-pay accunts n behalf f the patient after discharge and prir t cllectin activity. If Medicaid cverage is identified, the accunt will be reclassified t Medicaid frm Self-Pay and billed t Medicaid. The last cmmunicatin will ccur at least 90 days frm the first pst-discharge bill date and will include cmmunicatin t the patient that if there is n actin, the patient accunt will be referred fr additinal cllectin actins in 30 days. This cmmunicatin als includes a plain language summary detailing the CHS CAFA plicy.

Patients wh are fund t be belw 400% f the FPG qualify fr this payment arrangement.
