NACHRI 2008 Annual Meeting Session Presentation

What's New in Community Benefit Reporting

Keith Hearle, President
Verite Healthcare Consulting, LLC, Alexandria, VA
Donna Shelton, Director, Child Health Policy Research and Analytics
NACHRI, Alexandria, VA

Learning objectives:  After viewing this session attendees will be able to:

  1. Learn how the new Form 990 and Schedule H reporting requirements impact children’s hospitals
  2. Receive the findings from the NACHRI member survey on community needs assessment, measurement and reporting
  3. Get a sneak preview of the revised Catholic Healthcare Association reporting guidelines and member input to the revisions

Increased scrutiny by Congress and the IRS necessitate better understanding of how children’s hospitals organize for and report community benefit activities, and how they will be impacted by proposed new reporting requirements. Over the past 18 months NACHRI has engaged with members, congressional and IRS staff, and other associations to represent children’s hospitals in the development of new reporting guidelines and mandates.
