1. Increase coverage for patients seen in the Emergency Room by providing assistance to secure health coverage for all individuals entitled to the benefit; also provide payment options for individuals that chose not to secure coverage or are not currently eligible for health benefits. Secure benefit concurrent with stay when Medi-Cal Presumptive Eligibility rules apply.
a. Continue to provide services to help every unfunded patient received in the Emergency Department find coverage options - including PointCare questionnaire to generate personalized coverage options that are filed in patients' accounts for future reference and accessibility.
In addition, Sharp staff use the PointCare on-line survey to direct patients to the Covered California website for health coverage or Medi-Cal enrollment as Presumptively Eligible and/or full scope benefits.

The PointCare program continues to collect metrics on number of individuals served and cost savings. Via this program, Sharp served 9,384 self-pay patients since October 01, 2015 through 07/31/2016.
PointCare has expanded its website to also provide linkage to Covered CA as appropriate. The tool interfaces patient screening information in the GE record.
Sharp Healthcare’s Patient Access Services department has processed real-time Medi-Cal eligibility determinations under the Hospital Presumptive Eligibility Program for 234 unfunded patients, YTD FY 2016.
Thus far in FY 2016, Sharp Healthcare’s Patient Access Services department has assisted 309 recipients in maintaining Medi-Cal eligibility after the HPE period lapse via advanced advocacy efforts.
Continued unknowns in understanding the efficacy of our efforts are the increase in the patient out of pocket responsibility resulting from health plan coverage purchased off the exchange and the transition of qualified unfunded patients directly to Medi-Cal.

These individuals will also perform what is traditionally called “field calls” (home visits) to patients who have left the hospital and require assistance in completing a process to facilitate coverage. These positions were deployed in fiscal year 2016.

The CTI© program focuses on transitioning patient home safely by reviewing Medications, early recognition of symptoms, establishing a Medical Home, providing Advanced Care Planning choices and ensuring the patient has a plan for managing their care across the care continuum. Part of this is accomplished by connecting to patients to community resources (e.g., the San Diego Food Bank, 2-1-1 San Diego, Feeding America) that help them maintain their health and safety, including: food (directly), hunger relief organizations, transportation resources, access to a primary care physician for follow up care, medical equipment, and other social supports. In FY 2015, connections with Feeding America, San Diego and 211 San Diego were established with success.

SGH is the only hospital in East County to provide this assessment to patients in the ED. Psychiatric consultations in the ED have increased approximately 117% from 2007 (294 consults) to mid-2016 (637 consults).
Although Behavioral Health is identified as a health need in the communities served by SGH, beyond clinical services, the facility does not have the resources to comprehensively address the elements of community education and support around this health need. Consequently, the community education and support elements of behavioral health care are addressed through the programs/services provided through Sharp Mesa Vista Hospital and Sharp McDonald Center, which are the major providers of behavioral health and chemical dependency services in San Diego County.

In FY 2015, the Breast CPN facilitated access to care for more than 180 breast cancer patients in need — many with late-stage cancer diagnoses — through the provision of referrals to various community and national organizations.
Navigation Resources: In FY 2016, due to a vacancy in Sharp’s cancer navigator position, it was decided to replace the position with a navigator who was a social worker to better address patient needs. The position was filled with an LCSW in January, 2016. Later in 2016 with growing clinical needs, approval was secured to hire an RN to meet both Navigator and Radiation Oncology needs. That position will start in August, 2016. This team will cover all cancer sites, but will focus on those patients receiving radiation therapy. Metric: Navigation FTEs.
Identification and Prioritization of Needs: Distress Screening to assess practical and emotional issues contributing to cancer patient distress has been conducted at Sharp Chula Vista Medical Center over the past few years. A recent effort was initiated by Sharp Cancer Outpatient social workers to develop a consistent tool across the Sharp system that would evaluate these needs in greater detail in order to make them actionable and rate them by intensity so that they may be prioritized

and addressed appropriately. Metrics: Routine reports including number of patients screened, information on the issues that are most challenging for patients and the percentage of patients rated in high distress will be provided to the Integrated Network Cancer Program and to individual entities. The information will drive efforts to target and provide additional support and resources to better meet our patient needs.
Navigation Communication: Currently patient navigation is not consistently documented and easily accessible to all care team members. Often patients share valuable information with Navigators that can be useful to other team members for care coordination as well as identifying concerns about treatments and side effects that can be addressed by physicians and other staff for a more personalized approach to care and presenting options that may be more acceptable for cultural or personal beliefs. A project is planned for integrating Navigator care documentation in Cerner EMR to provide improved communication among all cancer team members. Metric: Implementation of Navigator documentation in Cerner.

Since 2014, a CPN at SGH has been designated for patients with cancers other than breast. The CPN primarily serves patients with head and neck cancers and lung cancer, but also assists those with anal and esophageal cancers as well as any cancer patient with complex care needs. The CPN supports patients and their family members through care coordination and connection to needed resources, including transportation, translation needs, financial assistance, speech therapy, nutritional support, feeding tube support, social work services and more. In addition, the CPN offers psychosocial support and education about the side effects of radiation therapy. The CPN has assisted nearly 160 patients and their families since the inception of the program.

Sharp Grossmont Hospital 2016 CHNA Executive Summary
Overview and Background Sharp HealthCare (Sharp) has been a long-time partner in the process of identifying and responding to the health needs of the San Diego community. This partnership includes a broad range of hospitals, health care organizations, and community agencies that have worked together to conduct triennial community health needs assessments (CHNAs) over the past 20 years. Previous collaborations among not-for-profit hospitals and other community partners have resulted in numerous well-regarded CHNA reports. Sharp hospitals, including Sharp Grossmont Hospital (SGH), base their community benefit and community health programs on both the findings of these CHNAs and the combination of expertise in programs and services offered and the knowledge of the populations and communities served by each Sharp hospital. The Sharp Grossmont Hospital 2016 Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) examines the health needs of the community members it serves in the east region of San Diego County (SDC). SGH’S 2016 CHNA process and findings are based on the collaborative Hospital Association of San Diego and Imperial Counties (HASD&IC) 2016 Community Health Needs Assessment process and findings for SDC. This collaborative process was conducted under the auspices of HASD&IC, and in contract with the Institute for Public Health (IPH) at San Diego State University (SDSU). The HASD&IC Board of Directors convened a CHNA Committee to plan and implement the collaborative 2016 CHNA process. The CHNA Committee is comprised of representatives from all seven participating hospitals and health care systems: Kaiser Foundation Hospital – San Diego Palomar Health Rady Children's Hospital – San Diego Scripps Health (Chair) Sharp HealthCare (Vice Chair) Tri-City Medical Center University of California San Diego Health SGH prepared this CHNA for Fiscal Year 2016 (FY 2016) in accordance with the requirements of Section 501(r)(3) within Section 9007 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“Affordable Care Act”), and IRS Form 990, Schedule H for not-for-profit hospitals.1 Under the Affordable Care Act enacted in March, 2010, IRS Code Section 501(r)(3) requires not-for-profit hospitals to conduct a triennial assessment of prioritized health 1 See Section 9007(a) of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“Affordable Care Act”), Pub.

needs for the communities served by its hospital facilities, as well as adopt an implementation plan – a written strategy to address the health needs identified as a result of the CHNA. The CHNA is considered adopted once it has been made widely available to the public. In addition, the CHNA and the implementation plan must be approved by an authorized governing body of the hospital facility. CHNA Objectives In recognition of the challenges that health providers, community organizations and residents face in their efforts to prevent, diagnose and manage chronic conditions, the HASD&IC 2016 CHNA process focused on gaining deeper insight into the top health needs identified for SDC through the 2013 CHNA process. Figure 1 below presents the 2013 CHNA methodology and findings.
Figure 1: 2013 CHNA Methodology
In 2013, Sharp HealthCare based its individual hospital CHNAs on this collaborative model, and through further outreach and analyses, identified additional health needs for its hospitals. For SGH, the additional identified need was senior health. Following the collaborative, HASD&IC 2016 CHNA model, SGH’s 2016 CHNA processes dove deeper into the priority health needs identified in 2013 (behavioral health, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity and senior health). In addition, SGH included cancer in its CHNA analyses in 2016, given the significance of various forms of cancer identified in 2013 (see Figure 1 above) as well as input from Sharp providers and patients. Specific objectives of the 2016 CHNA process included:
Gather in-depth feedback to aid in the understanding of the most significant health needs impacting community members in SDC, particularly Sharp patients.
Connect the identified health needs with associated social determinants of health to further understand the challenges that community members and

Provide a foundation of information to begin discussions of opportunities for programs, services and collaborations that could further address the identified health needs and challenges for the community.
Study Area Defined For the purposes of the collaborative, HASD&IC 2016 CHNA, the study area is the entire County of San Diego due to a broad representation of hospitals in the area. More than three million people live in socially and ethnically diverse SDC. Information on key demographics, socioeconomic factors, access to care, health behaviors, and the physical environment can be found in the full HASD&IC 2016 CHNA report at: http://hasdic.org. For the SGH 2016 CHNA, the community served includes the entire east region of SDC, including the sub-regional areas of Jamul, Spring Valley, Lemon Grove, La Mesa, El Cajon, Santee, Lakeside, Harbison Canyon, Crest, Alpine, Laguna-Pine Valley and Mountain Empire. Approximately five percent of the population lives in remote or rural areas of this region. Table 1 below lists ZIP codes where the majority of SGH patients reside.

The 2016 CHNA process began with a comprehensive scan of recent community health statistics in order to validate the regional significance of the top four health needs originally identified in the HASD&IC 2013 CHNA. Quantitative data for both the HASD&IC 2016 CHNA and SGH 2016 CHNA included 2013 Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) demographic data for hospital inpatient, emergency department, and ambulatory care encounters to understand the hospital patient population. Clinic data was also gathered from OSHPD’s website and incorporated in order to provide a more holistic view of health care utilization in SDC. Additional variables analyzed in the 2016 CHNA processes are included in Table 3 below and were analyzed at the ZIP code level wherever possible. Table 3: Variables Analyzed in the HASD&IC and SGH 2016 CHNA
Secondary Data Variables
Hospital Utilization: Inpatient discharges, ED and ambulatory care encounters (both countywide and for SGH specifically)
Community Clinic Visits Demographic Data (socio‐economic indicators)
Mortality and Morbidity Data
Regional Program Data (childhood obesity trends and community resource referral patterns)
Social Determinants of Health and Health Behaviors (education, income, insurance, physical environment, physical activity, diet and substance abuse)
Based on the results of the community health statistics scan and feedback from community partners received during the 2016 CHNA planning process, a number of community engagement activities were conducted across SDC, as well as specific to SGH, in order to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the identified health needs, including their associated social determinants of health and potential system and policy changes that may positively impact them. In addition, a detailed analysis of how the top health needs impact the health of San Diego residents was conducted. Figure 4 below outlines the number and type of community engagement activities conducted as part of the collaborative, HASD&IC 2016 CHNA, including: key informant interviews, facilitated discussions with care coordinators (community partnership discussions), and community resident input through a Health Access and Navigation (“Roadmap”) Survey.
Figure 4: HASD&IC 2016 CHNA Community Engagement Activities
Sharp Grossmont Hospital 2016 CHNA Executive Summary Page 7
For the SGH 2016 CHNA, Sharp contracted with IPH to collect additional community input through three primary methods: facilitated discussions, key informant interviews, and the Health Access and Navigation Survey (or, “Roadmap”) with patients and community members. This input focused on cardiovascular health, cancer, diabetes, senior health and the needs of highly vulnerable patients and community members. Figure 5 below outlines the engagement activities specific to SGH’s 2016 CHNA. More than 40 Sharp providers and more than 100 patients / community members were reached through these efforts.
Figure 5: SGH 2016 CHNA Community Engagement Activities
Findings The collaborative, HASD&IC 2016 CHNA prioritized the top health needs for SDC through application of the following five criteria: 1. Magnitude or Prevalence 2. Severity 3. Health Disparities 4. Trends 5. Community Concern Using these criteria, a summary matrix translating the 2016 CHNA findings was created for review by the CHNA Committee. As a result, the CHNA Committee identified behavioral health as the number one health need in SDC. In addition, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity were identified as having equal importance due to their interrelatedness. Health needs were further broken down into priority areas due to the overwhelming agreement among all data sources and in recognition of the complexities within each health need. Figure 6 below illustrates the prioritization of the top health needs for SDC.
Sharp Grossmont Hospital 2016 CHNA Executive Summary Page 8
Figure 6: HASD&IC 2016 CHNA Top Health Needs
These findings were well-aligned with findings from both the quantitative analysis and community engagement activities conducted by SGH. As the HASD&IC 2016 CHNA process included robust representation from the communities served by SGH, the findings of the prioritization process apply to the same four priority health needs identified for SGH (behavioral health, cardiovascular, diabetes, obesity). Findings from SGH’s 2016 CHNA continued to prioritize senior health among the top health needs for the community members it serves, and, in recognition of the significance of various forms of cancer prioritized in the 2013 CHNA process (See Figure 1), as well as discussion with Sharp team members and the priorities they observe in their patient population, SGH also identified cancer as a priority health need to address in its community. Further, the IPH conducted a content analysis of the input collected by the community engagement activities of the HASD&IC 2016 CHNA process, and found that social determinants of health were a key theme. Ten social determinants were consistently referenced across the different community engagement activities. The importance of these social determinants was also confirmed by quantitative data. Hospital programs and community collaborations have the potential to impact these social determinants, which Figure 7 lists below in order of priority.
Sharp Grossmont Hospital 2016 CHNA Executive Summary Page 9
Feedback collected from SGH’s community engagement activities also highlighted the inextricable connection of these social determinants to the health of SGH’s patients and community members.

Conclusion / Next Steps SGH is committed to the health and well-being of its community, and the findings of SGH’s 2016 CHNA will help inform the activities and services provided by SGH to improve the health of its community members. These programs are detailed in SGH’s FY17-FY 20 implementation plan, which will be made available online to the community at: http://www.sharp.com/about/community/health-needs-assessments.cfm. The 2016 CHNA process generated a list of currently existing resources in SDC that address the health needs identified through the CHNA process. While not an exhaustive list of San Diego’s available resources, this information serves as a resource for SGH to help continue, refine and create programs that meet the needs of its community. Sharp will continue to work with HASD&IC and IPH as part of the CHNA Committee to develop and implement Phase 2 of the 2016 CHNA. Phase 2 will focus on continued engagement of community partners to analyze and improve the CHNA process, as well as the hospital programs provided to address the 2016 CHNA findings. In this way, our CHNA work will continue to evolve to meet the needs of our ever-changing community. In addition, Phase 2 of the CHNA will focus on the development of a multi-hospital and health system collaborative effort to address priority health needs, including a policy agenda to focus and strengthen the role of hospitals as advocates for community health. The health needs and social determinants of health identified in this CHNA will not be resolved with a “quick fix.” Rather, these resolutions require time, persistence, collaboration and innovation. It is a journey that SGH and the entire Sharp system are committed to, and Sharp remains steadfastly dedicated to the care and improvement of health and well-being for all San Diegans.

Looking Ahead A focus on completing the Prop G projects – the highest priority! Property Taxes – Property tax revenues continue to increase
after a decline a few years ago. State of CA – The Legislature and Little Hoover Commission will
be holding hearings, with a focus on special districts in general and healthcare districts specifically (view of local governments as a potential source of tax dollars).
Community Needs – The District continues to see an increase in needs for community non-profits and safety net providers, impacted by recent state cuts and economic declines.
November Election – Three GHD Board seats will appear on the November ballot for four-year terms.
