Baylor Scott & White Health mission
Our commitment to the communities we serve
As the largest not-for-profit healthcare system in Texas and one of the largest in the United States,
Baylor Scott & White Health was born from the 2013 combination of Baylor Health Care System and
Scott & White Healthcare. Today, Baylor Scott & White includes 51 hospitals, 1,100 access points, more
than 7,300 active physicians, and over 49,000 employees and the Baylor Scott & White Health Plan.
Baylor Scott & White Health is a
leading Texas healthcare provider
with a proven commitment to patient
and community health. Baylor Scott
& White Health demonstrates this
commitment through periodic
community health needs assessments,
then addresses those needs with a
wide range of outreach initiatives.
These Community Health Needs
Assessment (CHNA) activities also
satisfy federal and state community
benefit requirements outlined in the
Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act and the Texas Health and
Safety Code.
Baylor Scott & White Health conducts
a thorough periodic examination
of public health indicators and a
benchmark analysis comparing
communities it serves to an overall state of Texas value. In this way, it can determine where
deficiencies lie and the opportunities for improvement are greatest.
Through interviews, focus groups and surveys, the organization gains a clearer understanding of
community needs from the perspective of the members of each community. This helps it identify
the most pressing needs a community is facing and develop implementation plans to focus on those
prioritized needs.
The process includes input from a wide range of knowledgeable people who represent the myriad
interests of the community in compliance with 501 (r)(3) regulations. The CHNA process overview
can be found in Appendix A.
The CHNAs serve as the foundation for community health improvement planning efforts over the
next three years, while the implementation plans will be evaluated annually.

Community Health Needs Assessment
(CHNA) report
Baylor Scott & White Health (BSWH) owns and operates numerous individually licensed hospital facilities
serving the residents of North and Central Texas.
The Plano Health Community is home to a number of these hospitals with overlapping communities,
including:
Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Plano
Baylor Scott & White The Heart Hospital - Plano
The community served by the hospital facilities listed above is Collin, Dallas, Denton, Grayson and Fannin
Counties and was determined based on the contiguous ZIP codes within the associated counties that
made up nearly 80% of the hospital facilities' inpatient admissions over the 12-month period of FY20.
Those facilities with overlapping counties of patient origin collaborated to provide a joint CHNA report
in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code Section 501 (r) (3) and the US Treasury regulations
thereunder. All of the collaborating hospital facilities included in a joint CHNA report define their
communities to be the same for the purposes of the CHNA report.

Access to care: population to one mental health provider (ratio of population to mental health providers
by county)
The focus group participants stated that it is difficult for community residents to access mental/
behavioral health services. They believe that the limited access is due to a combination of an
insufficient number of providers as well as residents’ inability to access care in parts of the
community due to transportation, insurance or funding limitations. Some participants felt that the
area suffered an overwhelming impact of substance abuse and mental health issues and lacks
proactive mental health services, which contribute to the downfall of the physical well-being
of residents. In addition, they acknowledged that there is a stigma present in obtaining mental/
behavioral health services, which also prevents residents from seeking care.
In the prioritization session, the hospital and community leaders were in agreement that the health
community lacks sufficient behavioral health providers. They added that the current providers are
seeing more patients than they have in the past. Many of the patients are presenting with significant
behavioral needs along with complex medical conditions. This is causing difficulty with finding
appropriate care for these individuals. They noted that often mental health facilities will not admit
patients with complex medical needs, thus limiting resources even more in this community.

Access to care: population to one non-physician primary care provider (ratio of population to primary
care providers other than physicians by county)
The focus group participants felt that the overall community area has limited access to primary care
and a shortage of those providers. Participants cited that limited access to providers is a problem
regardless of insurance coverage. Language and cultural barriers also prevent access to medical care.
In the prioritization session, the hospital leadership noted that primary care provider access will
always be a need as the population continues to grow and age in Plano.

Priority 4: Housing Insecurity
Although the data did not indicate greater need in the case of housing, specifically in the measures of
renter-occupied housing and severe housing problems, the key informants felt the lack of affordable
housing was a greater need in the community.
Category Data shows less need or no data Key informants indicate greater need

Housing: severe housing problems (% of households with one of four housing problems by county)
The focus group participants stated that housing is unaffordable in the community. Significant
gentrification has occurred, and the resulting impact is residents are being priced out of neighborhoods.
While housing assistance is available, there are too many requirements to apply and qualify. In addition,
there is a lack of safe housing, resulting in hospitalized patients being discharged to unsafe environments.
In the prioritization session, hospital leadership felt strongly that housing is central to accessing care.
Stable housing helps patients manage chronic diseases better and reduces their utilization of the
emergency department. They note that there is a lack of resources for homeless individuals in parts of
the community, which increases the utilization of resources in other parts.
Plano Health Community 13
Priority 5: Elderly/Social Isolation
Although the data did not indicate greater need to address elderly isolation, the key informants felt it
was a greater need in the community.
Category Data shows less need or no data Key informants indicate greater need
Environment
Elderly isolation
Social isolation and loneliness in
community caused by COVID
The elderly isolation measure is defined as the percent of non-family households (householder living
alone) age 65 years and over. The indicator is based on data from American Community Survey
Five-Year Estimates, US Census Bureau - American FactFinder.

Environment: elderly isolation (% householder age 65+ living alone by county)
The key informants described elderly isolation, especially due to COVID, as a social challenge for the
community. As a result of the isolation, the elder community has increased mental health needs and
limited access to resources with no one to provide transportation.
In the prioritization session, hospital leadership discussed the significant uptick in patients presenting
with altered mental/dementia status to the hospitals. They attribute this to older adults living alone
in their homes past the time their capabilities allow them to do so safely. They noted that this can
increase emergency visits for patients with mental health and other medical needs.
Plano Health Community 14
Priority 6: Food Insecurity
While the data did not indicate a need, the key informants cited a greater need in response to the
food environment index, food insecurity and limited access to healthy foods.
Category Data shows less need or no data Key informants indicate greater need
Environment
Food environment index
Food insecure
Limited access to healthy
foods
Food deserts exist
Lack of supply of food in some areas
Healthy choices not affordable and not
accessible everywhere
The food environment index measure is defined as index of factors that contribute to a healthy food
environment. A value of zero “0” is worst and a value of ten “10” is best in the county. The indicator is
based on data from County Health Rankings & Roadmaps, USDA Food Environment Atlas, Map the
Meal Gap from Feeding America, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

Environment: limited access to healthy foods (% population low income and do not live close to a

While the key informants acknowledged that COVID helped with food access in North Texas as
more resources were made available, they noted that food distributions are slowing down and that
there are typically issues in the community around fresh and healthy food options. They added that
chronically ill residents are not helped by food banks or Meals on Wheels because those food sources
often lack dietary-restricted options such as low sodium. Even when healthy food choices are
available, they are not affordable for most residents.
In the prioritization session, the hospital and community leaders agreed that food is a critical
foundation for all needs, including good health. They also agreed that the issue is not the availability
of food but access to food, which is linked to transportation issues. They cited that there is a huge
amount of food wasted at the community’s medical centers, which could be utilized. Despite
stringent state and federal government guidelines for food disposal, the group felt there might be
opportunities to reuse the excess food.

Priority 7: Transportation
Although the data did not illustrate a need, the focus group participants indicated greater need to
address transportation needs.
Category Data shows less need or no data
Key informants indicate less need or
not mentioned
Environment
No vehicle available
Transportation is a challenge,
especially in rural areas
The no vehicle available measure is defined as the percent of households with no vehicle available

Environment: no vehicle available (% of households with no vehicle available by county)
According to key informants, there is limited public transportation across the community. Even with the
existing programs in place to assist in transporting the population, public transportation is not convenient
and can be cost-prohibitive. In addition, current voucher programs are still inefficient at getting residents
to their healthcare appointments. The group felt that more could be done to address this need.
Removing some of the transportation barriers by improving public transportation accessibility and
providing more ride-share or voucher arrangements was a highly rated opportunity as well as expanding
telehealth to accommodate those without easy transportation options to get to healthcare visits.
In the prioritization session, the hospital and community leaders noted that there are very few options
for public transportation in the Plano Health Community. This is more pronounced in rural areas and low
socioeconomic households that cannot afford ride-sharing services such as Lyft and Uber. Transportation
is critical for getting to appointments, obtaining medications and buying groceries and is a significant
need for these reasons.

Next steps
BSWH started the Community Health Needs Assessment process in April 2021. Using both qualitative
community feedback as well as publicly available and proprietary health indicators, BSWH was
able to identify and prioritize community health needs for their healthcare system. With the goal of
improving the health of the community, implementation plans with specific tactics and time frames
will be developed for the health needs BSWH chooses to address for the community served.

Appendix A: CHNA requirement details
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
(PPACA) requires all tax-exempt organizations
operating hospital facilities to assess the health
needs of their community every three (3) years.
The resulting Community Health Needs
Assessment (CHNA) report must include
descriptions of the following:
The community served and how the
community was determined;
The process and methods used to conduct
the assessment, including sources and dates
of the data and other information as well as
the analytical methods applied to identify
significant community health needs;
How the organization used input from
persons representing the broad interests
of the community served by the hospital,
including a description of when and how the
hospital consulted with these persons or the
organizations they represent;
The prioritized significant health needs
identified through the CHNA as well as a
description of the process and criteria used in
prioritizing the identified significant needs;
The existing healthcare facilities,
organizations and other resources within the
community available to meet the significant
community health needs; and
An evaluation of the impact of any actions
that were taken since the hospitals' most
recent CHNA to address the significant
health needs identified in that report.
°
Hospitals also must adopt an
implementation strategy to address
prioritized community health needs
identified through the assessment.

Health needs assessment
process overview
To identify the health needs of the community, the hospitals established a comprehensive method
using all available relevant data including community input. They used the qualitative and quantitative
data obtained when assessing the community to identify its community health needs. Surveyors
conducted interviews and focus groups with individuals representing public health, community
leaders/groups, public organizations and other providers. In addition, data collected from public
sources compared to the state benchmark indicated the level of severity. The outcomes of the
quantitative data analysis were compared to the qualitative data findings.
These data are available to the community via an interactive dashboard at BSWHealth.com/
CommunityNeeds.
Data gathering: quantitative assessment of health needs – methodology and data
sources
The IBM team used quantitative data collection and analysis garnered from public health indicators
to assess community health needs. This included over 100 data elements grouped into over 11
categories evaluated for the counties where data was available. Recently, indicators expanded to
include new categories addressing mental health, healthcare costs, opioids and social determinants
of health. A table depicting the categories and indicators and a list of sources are in Appendix B.
A benchmark analysis of each indicator determined which public health indicators demonstrated a
community health need. Benchmark health indicators included overall US values, state of Texas values
and other goal-setting benchmarks, such as Healthy People 2020.
According to America’s Health Rankings 2021 Annual Report, Texas ranks 22nd out of the 50 states in
the area of Health Outcomes (which includes behavioral health, mortality and physical health) and
50th in the area of Clinical Care (which includes avoiding care due to cost, providers per 100,000
population and preventive services). When the health status of Texas was compared to other states,
the team identified many opportunities to impact community health.
Plano Health Community 22
The quantitative analysis of the health community used the following methodology:
The team set benchmarks for each health community using state value for comparison.
They identified community indicators not meeting state benchmarks.
From this, they determined a need differential analysis of the indicators, which helped them
understand the community’s relative severity of need.
Using the need differentials, they established a standardized way to evaluate the degree that
each indicator differed from its benchmark.
This quantitative analysis showed which health community indicators were above the 25th
percentile in order of severity—and which health indicators needed their focus.
The outcomes of the quantitative data analysis were compared to the qualitative data findings.
Information gaps
In some areas of Texas, the small population size has an impact on reporting and statistical
significance. The team has attempted to understand the most significant health needs of the entire
community. It is understood that there is variation of need within the community, and BSWH may not
be able to impact all of the population who truly need the service.
Community input: qualitative health needs assessment - approach
To obtain a qualitative assessment of the health community, the team:
Assembled a focus group representing the broad interests of the community served;
Conducted interviews and surveys with key informants—leaders and representatives who serve
the community and have insight into its needs; and
Held prioritization sessions with hospital clinical leadership and community leaders to review
collection results and identify the most significant healthcare needs based on information gleaned
from the focus groups and key informants.
Focus groups helped identify barriers and social factors influencing the community’s health needs.
Key informant interviews gave the team even more understanding and insight about the general
health status of the community and the various drivers that contributed to health issues.
Multiple governmental public health department individuals were asked to contribute their
knowledge, information and expertise relevant to the health needs of the community. Individuals or
organizations who served and/or represented the interests of medically underserved, low-income
and minority populations in the community also took part in the process. NOTE: In some cases, public
health officials were unavailable due to obligations concerning the COVID-19 pandemic.
The hospitals also considered written input received on their most recently conducted CHNA and
subsequent implementation strategies if provided. The assessment is available for public comment or
feedback on the report findings by going to the BSWH website (BSWHealth.com/CommunityNeeds)
or by emailing CommunityHealth@BSWHealth.org.

Approach to prioritizing significant
health needs
On January 31, 2022, a session was conducted
with key leadership members from Baylor
Scott & White along with community leaders
to review the qualitative and quantitative data
findings of the CHNA to date, discuss at length
the significant needs identified, and complete
prioritization exercises to rank the community
needs. Prioritizing health needs was a two-
step process. The two-step process allowed
participants to consider the quantitative
needs and qualitative needs as defined by the
indicator dataset and focus group/interview/survey participant input.
In the first step, participants reviewed the top health needs for their community using associated
data-driven criteria. The criteria included health indicator value(s) for the community and how the
indicator compared to the state benchmark.

Participants held a group discussion about which needs were most significant, using the professional
experience and community knowledge of the group. A virtual voting method was invoked for
individuals to provide independent opinions.
This process helped the group define and identify the community’s significant health needs. Participants
voted individually for the needs they considered the most significant for this community. When the
votes were tallied, the top identified needs emerged and were ranked based on the number of votes.

Prioritization of significant needs
In the second step, participants ranked the significant health needs based on prioritization criteria
recommended by the focus group conducted for this community.
Severity (outcome if ignored): The problem results in disability or premature death or creates
burdens on the community, economically or socially.
Root cause: The need is a root cause of other problems. If addressed, it could possibly impact
multiple issues.
Feasibility/cost: Is the problem amenable to interventions? What technology, knowledge or
resources are necessary to effect a change? Is the problem preventable? Is it too expensive for the
community to tackle?
The group rated each of the seven significant health needs on each of the three identified criteria,
using a scale of 1 (low) to 10 (high). The criteria score sums for each need created an overall score.
They prioritized the list of significant health needs based on the overall scores. The outcome of this
process was the list of prioritized health needs for this community.
Priority Need Category of need

2 Access to primary healthcare providers Access to care

4 Housing insecurity Environment

Plano Health Community 33
The community served expects to grow 7.5% by 2025, an increase of over 362,000 people.
The projected population growth is higher than the state’s five-year projected growth rate (6.6%) and
higher than the national projected growth rate (3.3%). The ZIP codes expected to experience
the most growth in five years are:
75052 Grand Prairie – 8,690 people
75002 Allen – 7,402 people
75035 Frisco – 7,244 people
75098 Wylie – 7,020 people
The community’s population is younger with 51.6% of the population ages 18 - 54 and 25.4% under
age 18. The age 65-plus cohort is expected to experience the fastest growth (27%) over the next five
years. Growth in the senior population will likely contribute to increased utilization of services as the
population continues to age.
Population statistics are analyzed by race and by Hispanic ethnicity. The community was primarily white
non-Hispanic, but diversity in the community will increase due to the projected growth of minority
populations over the next five years. The expected growth rate of the Hispanic population (all races) is
over 175,000 people (11.6%) by 2025. The non-Hispanic white population is expected to decline by -1.1%.

Community Needs Index
The IBM Watson Health Community Need Index (CNI) is a statistical approach that identifies areas
within a community where there are likely gaps in healthcare. The CNI takes into account vital socio-
economic factors, including income, culture, education, insurance and housing, about a community
to generate a CNI score for every population ZIP code in the US.
The CNI is strongly linked to variations in community healthcare needs and is a good indicator of
a community’s demand for a range of healthcare services. Not-for-profit and community-based
hospitals, for whom community need is central to the mission of service, are often challenged to
prioritize and effectively distribute hospital resources. The CNI can be used to help them identify
specific initiatives best designed to address the health disparities of a given community.
The CNI score by ZIP code shows specific areas within a community where healthcare needs may
be greater.
Plano Health Community
The overall CNI score for the Plano Health Community was 3.61. The difference in the numbers
indicates both a strong link to community healthcare needs and a community’s demand for various
healthcare services. In portions of the community, the CNI score was greater than 4.5, indicating
more significant health needs among the population.

Appendix E: proprietary
community data
IBM Watson Health supplemented the publicly available data with estimates of localized inpatient
demand discharges, outpatient procedures, emergency department visits, heart disease, as well as
cancer incidence estimates.
Social determinants of health are the structural determinants and conditions in which people are
born, grow, live, work and age. All of which can greatly impact healthcare utilization and play a major
role in the shifting healthcare landscape. Social determinants, such as education, income and race,
are factored into Inpatient Demand Estimates and Outpatient Procedure Estimates utilization rate
creation methodologies.
Inpatient demand estimates
Inpatient demand estimates provide the total volume of annual acute care admissions by ZIP code
and DRG Product Line for every market in the United States. IBM uses all-payor state discharge data
for publicly available states and Medicare (MEDPAR) data for the entire US. These rates are applied to
demographic projections by ZIP code to estimate inpatient utilization for 2020 through 2030.
The following summary is reflective of the inpatient utilization trends for Plano Health Community.
Total discharges in the community are expected to grow by 10.5% by 2030, with pulmonary medical,
general medicine and cardiovascular diseases projecting the largest growth.

Emergency department visits
Emergency department estimates predict the total annual volume of emergency department (ED)
visits by ZIP code and level of acuity for every market in the United States. IBM uses an extensive
supply of proprietary claims, public claims and federal surveys to construct population-based use
rates for all payors by age and sex. These use rates are then applied to demographic and insurance
coverage projections by ZIP code to estimate ED utilization for 2020 through 2030.
Visits are broken out into emergent and non-emergent ambulatory visits to identify the volume of
visits that could be seen in a less-acute setting, for example, a fast-track ED or an urgent care facility.
In addition, visits that result in an inpatient admission are broken out into a third, separate category.
In the Plano Health Community, ED visits are expected to grow by almost 15% by 2025.
