Executive Summary – Overview
Healthcare Management Partners (HMP) is a hospital and healthcare services management firm. For decades, all of its senior
executives have been building and operating thriving healthcare organizations, including CEO, COO and CFO assignments
across the spectrum of healthcare services providers. This knowledge base gives HMP a unique perspective on what tools are
necessary to handle the issues facing any healthcare provider organization, and is what prompted HMP to create HMP
MetricsTM. Our executives understand the value of being able to measure hospital performance relative to comparable
facilities and against “1st Quartile” or “High Performing” competitors.

Utilizing the last six years of publicly available hospital Medicare cost report data, HMP has conducted an extensive study
comparing performance within six hospital peer groups. We can easily create custom peer groups and metrics. These groups
selected include the following:

       1.   All General Acute Care Hospitals Regardless of Ownership or Sponsorship
       2.   All Investor Owned General Acute Care Hospitals
       3.   All Not-For-Profit General Acute Care Hospitals, including Institutions Sponsored by Religious Organizations
       4.   All State and Local Government Owned General Acute Care Hospitals
       5.   Free Standing Children’s Hospitals
       6.   All Non-Federal Major Teaching Hospitals

Using proprietary filters, data contained in the HMP Metrics database has been “scrubbed” to exclude partial period or
statistically aberrant data elements for individual hospitals or health systems. It also excludes Federal Government hospitals,
specialty hospitals (e.g., long-term acute care) and general acute care hospitals for which 30% or more of its total licensed
beds are comprised of sub-acute beds. This data validation process produces highly accurate and defensible peer group
comparisons for dozens of standard industry metrics.

This report measures several commonly used metrics to further stratify these hospital types into quartiles in order to illustrate
the benchmarks for poor to exceptional performance for each of the metrics. With this information, one can quickly assess the
relative financial well-being of any facility in any of these groups. HMP can easily create custom reports and mix or create
new peer groups and compare them to state, local or national benchmarks.

As noted above, the first quartile contains the top 25% of the best performing hospitals in an applicable peer group,
the second quartile contains those hospitals falling in the 26% to 50% range, the third quartile contains those
hospitals falling in the 51% to 75% range, and finally the fourth quartile contains those hospitals falling below 76%.

Mean Value: The mean value is the average of all amounts within a defined quartile or population.

Median Value: The report also contains the median value by quartile or total population.

Count: Actual number of qualified hospitals included in the mean or median calculation.

Excluded Cost Reports: Represents those metrics values not considered normative (i.e., outlier values). For
example, certain metric values that were greater than two standard deviations from the mean of a reported population
would be excluded from the analysis and included in this category.

Executive Summary – Hospital Performance Metrics

                                       A measure of overall hospital profitability presented as a percentage. A negative percentage
Total Profit Margin
                                       indicates an overall loss, while a positive percentage indicates profitability.

                                       A measure of operating profitability presented as a percentage. A negative percentage
Total Operating Profit Margin
                                       indicates overall loss, while a positive percentage indicates profitability.

                                     A measure of labor productivity. This metric divides labor costs by operating revenues. A
Total Labor Cost as a Percentage of
                                     higher percentage compared to its peers indicates that a hospital uses more labor to produce its
Total Operating Revenues

                                     Measures the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) employees used for each occupied bed.
Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) Staff per
                                     Similar to the previous ratio, a higher percentage compared to its peers indicates that a hospital
Adjusted Occupied Bed (AOB)
                                     uses more labor to treat its patients.
                                     Measures the number of days it typically takes to collect accounts receivable. A higher
Average Days Net Patient Revenue in
                                     percentage compared to its peers indicates that the hospital's revenue cycle is not as efficient as
Accounts Receivable (AR)
                                     its peers.
                                       Measures the average age of the hospital including capital improvements and major equipment
Average Age of Plant                   purchases. A higher age compared to its peers indicates that the hospital has deferred the
                                       replacement of its capital when compared to its peers, which can lead to further distress.

Source: Metrics are based on data extracted from Medicare cost reports filed each year with the Federal
Government. Accuracy of the data contained in the Medicare cost reports is certified by hospital management
when the report is filed. Any changes resulting from desk or field audits by Medicare and subsequently included in
the Hospital Cost Report Information System (HCRIS) database have also been reflected in the calculations.
Excludes partial-year Medicare cost reports, hospitals where 30% or more of total inpatient beds are non-acute, and
hospitals where the computed metric is more than 2 standard deviations from the mean.

  • 3. Executive Summary – Overview Healthcare Management Partners (HMP) is a hospital and healthcare services management firm. For decades, all of its senior executives have been building and operating thriving healthcare organizations, including CEO, COO and CFO assignments across the spectrum of healthcare services providers. This knowledge base gives HMP a unique perspective on what tools are necessary to handle the issues facing any healthcare provider organization, and is what prompted HMP to create HMP MetricsTM. Our executives understand the value of being able to measure hospital performance relative to comparable facilities and against “1st Quartile” or “High Performing” competitors. Utilizing the last six years of publicly available hospital Medicare cost report data, HMP has conducted an extensive study comparing performance within six hospital peer groups. We can easily create custom peer groups and metrics. These groups selected include the following: 1. All General Acute Care Hospitals Regardless of Ownership or Sponsorship 2. All Investor Owned General Acute Care Hospitals 3. All Not-For-Profit General Acute Care Hospitals, including Institutions Sponsored by Religious Organizations 4. All State and Local Government Owned General Acute Care Hospitals 5. Free Standing Children’s Hospitals 6. All Non-Federal Major Teaching Hospitals Using proprietary filters, data contained in the HMP Metrics database has been “scrubbed” to exclude partial period or statistically aberrant data elements for individual hospitals or health systems. It also excludes Federal Government hospitals, specialty hospitals (e.g., long-term acute care) and general acute care hospitals for which 30% or more of its total licensed beds are comprised of sub-acute beds. This data validation process produces highly accurate and defensible peer group comparisons for dozens of standard industry metrics. This report measures several commonly used metrics to further stratify these hospital types into quartiles in order to illustrate the benchmarks for poor to exceptional performance for each of the metrics. With this information, one can quickly assess the relative financial well-being of any facility in any of these groups. HMP can easily create custom reports and mix or create new peer groups and compare them to state, local or national benchmarks. October 2010 3
  • 4. Executive Summary – Key Terms Quartile Rankings: Quartile rankings were assigned based on the mean values calculated for all general acute care hospitals within the peer groups. Total Profit Margin All General Acute Care Hospitals in the United States Regardless of Bed Size 2009 Quartile Rank Mean Median Count 1st Quartile 13.70% 12.48% 758 2nd Quartile 5.10% 5.13% 760 3rd Quartile 0.59% 0.58% 762 4th Quartile (7.00%) (6.12%) 764 Total Population 3.07% 2.69% 3044 Excluded Cost Reports 306 Total Cost Reports 3350 As noted above, the first quartile contains the top 25% of the best performing hospitals in an applicable peer group, the second quartile contains those hospitals falling in the 26% to 50% range, the third quartile contains those hospitals falling in the 51% to 75% range, and finally the fourth quartile contains those hospitals falling below 76%. Mean Value: The mean value is the average of all amounts within a defined quartile or population. Median Value: The report also contains the median value by quartile or total population. Count: Actual number of qualified hospitals included in the mean or median calculation. Excluded Cost Reports: Represents those metrics values not considered normative (i.e., outlier values). For example, certain metric values that were greater than two standard deviations from the mean of a reported population would be excluded from the analysis and included in this category.

  • 5. Executive Summary – Hospital Performance Metrics A measure of overall hospital profitability presented as a percentage. A negative percentage Total Profit Margin indicates an overall loss, while a positive percentage indicates profitability. A measure of operating profitability presented as a percentage. A negative percentage Total Operating Profit Margin indicates overall loss, while a positive percentage indicates profitability. A measure of labor productivity. This metric divides labor costs by operating revenues. A Total Labor Cost as a Percentage of higher percentage compared to its peers indicates that a hospital uses more labor to produce its Total Operating Revenues revenue. Measures the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) employees used for each occupied bed. Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) Staff per Similar to the previous ratio, a higher percentage compared to its peers indicates that a hospital Adjusted Occupied Bed (AOB) uses more labor to treat its patients. Measures the number of days it typically takes to collect accounts receivable. A higher Average Days Net Patient Revenue in percentage compared to its peers indicates that the hospital's revenue cycle is not as efficient as Accounts Receivable (AR) its peers. Measures the average age of the hospital including capital improvements and major equipment Average Age of Plant purchases. A higher age compared to its peers indicates that the hospital has deferred the replacement of its capital when compared to its peers, which can lead to further distress. Source: Metrics are based on data extracted from Medicare cost reports filed each year with the Federal Government. Accuracy of the data contained in the Medicare cost reports is certified by hospital management when the report is filed. Any changes resulting from desk or field audits by Medicare and subsequently included in the Hospital Cost Report Information System (HCRIS) database have also been reflected in the calculations. Excludes partial-year Medicare cost reports, hospitals where 30% or more of total inpatient beds are non-acute, and hospitals where the computed metric is more than 2 standard deviations from the mean.
