Official statutory text
Within 90 days of the start of its fiscal year every health care charitable trust shall develop a community benefits plan. The plan shall be developed in accordance with the following criteria on forms supplied by the attorney general: I. The trust shall adopt a mission statement which shall be included in its plan and which shall be reaffirmed by the trust on an annual basis. II. The plan shall take into consideration a community needs assessment conducted in accordance with RSA 7:32-f and shall identify the health care needs that were considered in development of the plan. III. The plan shall identify the activities the trust expects to undertake or support which address the needs determined through the community needs assessment process or which otherwise qualify as community benefits and shall include all charity care in a discrete category. IV. The plan shall include a report on the community benefit activities undertaken by the trust in the preceding year and information describing the results or outcomes of the trust's community benefit activities. The report shall also include the means used to solicit the views of the community served by the trust, identification of community groups, members of the public, and local government officials consulted on the development of the plan, and an evaluation of the plan's effectiveness. V. (a) To the extent practicable, the plan shall include: (1) An estimate of the cost of each activity expected to be undertaken or supported in the ensuing year; and (2) A report on the unreimbursed cost of each activity undertaken in the preceding year. (b) For reporting purposes, the cost of contributed services shall be determined in accordance with the rates, costs, units of service, or other statistical measures used for general accounting purposes by the health care charitable trust. In addition, each charitable trust shall include in its report the ratio of its gross receipts from operations to its net operating costs, as shown in its final statement of accounts for the preceding fiscal year. VI. The process for development of the plan shall include an opportunity for members of the public in the trust's service area to provide input into development of the plan and comment upon the trust's proposed plan.
