Organizations Filed Purposes: Patient Care: The Union Hospital Association provides quality medical health care regardless of race, creed, sex, national origin, handicap, age or ability to pay.

To provide excellent quality health care to the community at a competitive price through highly competent people and an integrated provider network.

The Union Hospital Association provided quality medical health care regardless of race, creed, age, sex, national origin, handicap, or the ability to pay. Hospital medical services provided 4,724 inpatients a total of 18,595 patient days and 272,319 outpatient visits a total of 301,211 procedures.

The Hospital is dedicated in helping the elderly and disabled citizens of our community. We provide services, or assist with services, to these populations. One service is the Helpline program that provides quick medical or emergency assistance to the elderly and disabled. In 2017, this program enabled 546 subscribers to remain in their homes feeling safe and secure. During the year the hospital provided 60,843 meals through Mobile Meals, a volunteer group that delivers meals to residents unable to prepare their own meals due to medical limitations. The Hospital provided these meals Mobile Meals at a cost of $119,860. We are committed to helping our community with such works as co-sponsoring annual events that provide laboratory tests and blood pressure checks for the residents of the community; these services are provided at or below cost. During 2017, these events provided 9,529 community members with discounted cost testing services. We also operate a mobile medical vehicle that provides screenings to areas that would have been underserved. We host and support various groups such as, Down Syndrome, RSD, Pain Management, and multiple cancer support groups to ensure the health and wellbeing of our entire population. We also provide babysitting and AARP driving courses to the community. Our sports medicine department provides athletic training to area schools to promote healthy athletes and a safe sports environment. They also work with local physicians to provide low cost physicals for these athletes. Since the Hospital doesn't provide a full array of mental health services as part of its normal operations, we lease building space to a mental health nonprofit organization at a cost well below the average market rate. Thus, the rental range and related in kind support provided by the Hospital are justified in continuance of our mission. The Hospital is dedicated to helping members of the community that are in need of low cost medical services by working with a couple of local charities and agencies. One program, called the Rainbow Connection, is a nonprofit charity that is dedicated to emitting the needs of the disadvantaged and disabled residents of Tuscarawas County. The Hospital writes off 50% of charges for these patients while the program pays the remaining 50% of the charges. For the other program, Hospice of Tuscarawas County, which is dedicated in providing comfort care to patients throughout the end stages of life; the Hospital writes off specified charges for patients in this program. In 2017 we wrote off $113,229 for 229 patient accounts for both of these programs. The Hospital is dependent on its volunteer network; in 2017 we had 154 volunteers donate 21,076 hours toward the common purpose of serving health care needs of the community. The value of these hours ($221,298) is returned to the community through lower cost of patient services.
