"A group becomes a team when each member is sure enough of himself and his contribution to praise the skills of others." Norman Shidle
It’s in our DNA… BayCare’s 2018 Community Benefit contribution was $462 million totaling 11% of annual operating revenue! Medicaid/Income-based Programs - $311 million Underinsured – Patients with some insurance but not enough to cover medical bills. Charity Care - $117 million Patients will have their medical bills waived if they fall under the criteria set in BayCare’s Financial Assistance Policy Unbilled Community Services - $34 million Health professional education, community health services, cash and contributions to community groups, and other services. All 3 of these are measured in un-reimbursed costs.
