Anderson presented the PowerPoint that she and Jason Hanssen, the administrator of Brookview Manor,

points included the history of why the hospital is now a health system, benefits of being a community
owned system, the master campus plan, the need for a foundation, the new skilled nursing facility going
from a “medical” environment to a “homelike” environment, and finally why giving is so important as
well as the various programs levels one can give. Anderson summarized foundations are common place
in healthcare and are relied upon much more in a community-based health system setting. Anderson was
excused at 6:43 p.m.

REPORTS
Operational
CEO Report
Construction of the new skilled nursing facility is on schedule. Merkley noted the third annual “Aiming
to Inspire Health” shooting clay event will occur on August 23rd. Since this date was to be the BOT
meeting the new meeting date, based on responses from the Board members, will be the following week
on Thursday, August 30th. The employee’s bonus incentive plan, TeamShare numbers were shown.
Merkley noted the organization is half way through the fiscal year and both the Quality and Financial
Scores are at the highest tier. Working with Senior Leadership regarding accountabilities and having the
evaluation process become objective centered as opposed to the current subjective model.
CFO Report
In addition to the written report, Coffey noted an unannounced visit from the Nuclear Regulatory
Committee (NRC) was very complimentary of the staff and the good job they do of following the
regulations and quality assurance. There were no deficiencies. Coffey noted a mid-year cost report will
be done by Eide Bailly to determine if the organization is too conservative on the contractual estimates.
He noted the volatility in this area by giving an example of November 2011, based on volume, BHS owed
CMS $100,000 but due to volume in December 2011 the underpayment turned into dollars being
refunded by CMS to the organization. Due to participation in the Rural Demonstration Program, the
program contributed positively to the bottom line in 2011 in comparison to the old reimbursement model
of prospective payment. Coffey noted with the recent passage of the PPACA, the Rural
Demonstration Program is part of that and would continue for the organization through 2014.
Charity write-off for May was $68,728, bringing the year-to-date amount to $161,994. Fiscal year 2011
audited figure was $305,024, in 2010, $311,830 and in 2009, $284,470.
Total cash disbursements for May totaled $3,285,495.75. Payroll and benefit expenses (excluding MRI
and YEC) were $1,628,496.

NEW BUSINESS
BEDC Funding Request
A letter from the BEDC was presented requesting BHS consider their continued participation and
involvement for 2013. Concern was addressed about the lack of health care in BEDC’s overall vision.
BHS has contributed over a 7-year period $350,000 to BEDC. The Board requested BEDC come and
present at a future meeting.
Board Meeting Mid-Year Review
There was agreement that the current meeting expectations are being met.
Recruitment & Locums Expectations
Merkley asked the Boards input regarding recruitment and locums expectations. The 2012 budget has
allocations set aside for recruitment dollars, but there could be the need to request more dollars from the
Board in 2012. It was the consensus of the Board requests such as this would be looked at favorably.
Meaningful Use Attestation
Merkley noted as of June 1st the attestation period started for determination of meaningful use. BHS has
90 days (by October 1st) to demonstrate the electronic medical record (EMR) is fully implemented based
on the stage 1 requirements. Upon validation of the attestation, BHS would receive partial reimbursement
during FY 2012. The remaining percentage would be paid after submission of the 2012 Medicare cost
report.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Skilled Nursing Facility Financing
At the May Board Meeting, the Board directed the CEO to move forward with hiring Dougherty &
Company as the financial advisor to represent BHS in seeking out Certificates of Participation from local
banks. During the validation of bank qualified funding the City has available, it was discovered that there
are no more qualified dollars for 2012 and funds for 2013 may already be committed. Merkley noted this
does not change the direction of pursuing certificates of participation funding; however, interest on the
dollars borrowed will be at a taxable rate initially with the option to be converted to a non-taxable rate
when/if the capacity exists under the City’s bank qualified funding. He noted there is also proposed
legislation increasing the $10 million ceiling limit to $30 million. If this occurs, the ceiling limit of bank
7 of 8
qualified funding would be increased and BHS could borrow at the non-taxable interest rate. Coffey then
provided cash flow projections as of 05/31/12 that would factor principle and interest payments on the
debt. The 5-year projections noted the number of days cash and investments on hand would be 174 days,
which based on Eide Bailly’s recommendation is still a healthy number. Merkley noted local banks have
until July 17, 2012 to respond to the RFP (request for proposal). HUD money is still an option on other
future building projects. There was discussion regarding the importance of having good communication
between all city entities and for BHS to aggressively pursue and communicate their position and need for
future projects which may require additional financing. Wicks made a motion for the CEO to formally
request to the City Council $10 million dollars in bonding authority for 2013 and if not available earmark
those dollars for 2014. Whaley seconded the motion.
Action: Al Baker, aye, Jim Booher, not present, Arne Brown, aye, Sandra Faltemier, aye, Debra
Johnston, aye, Justin Sell, aye, Julie Whaley, aye, Zeno W. Wicks, III, aye, Walt Wosje, aye. Motion
carried.
Dialysis Update
Prairie Lakes last day providing dialysis service to the Brookings Community is Friday, June 29, 2012.
Avera will be the new provider effective Monday, July 2, 2012. New dialysis machines will be installed
by Avera throughout the month of July. Patients will experience a seamless transition as staff from
Prairie Lakes that elected to become Avera employees will continue to provide the same high quality
dialysis care.
Coffee with the Mayor
There were no further updates on the topic.
Annual Board Retreat
Merkley noted the Board Retreat will be the afternoon of November 2nd and morning of November 3rd at
the Brookings Country Club. The City of Brookings 2012 Strategic Plan was included in the packet as
informational in preparation of the Board Retreat. Spouses are invited to attend an evening meal on
November 2nd to end the first day of the two day event.
