the non-traditional patient setting now and in the coming years ahead.

Committee has approved the Helping Hospitals Improve Patient Care Act (H.R.5273) which includes a provision

OLD BUSINESS
Rural Community Hospital Demonstration Program
As Lindemann noted in his CFO report, Merkley reiterated we are keeping a watchful eye on H.R. 5273 (Helping
Hospitals Improve Patient Care Act of 2016). There has been broad support from the South Dakota
Congressional Delegation, who signed onto letters of support earlier this month and full time lobbying from
other affected facilities nationwide has been taking place to help move the bill forward.
5
Northern Plains Health Network
Merkley noted the NPHN members are currently laying out key objectives of the network and working on
specifics of an initial operating agreement. CNO’s from the five facilities have met and started the process of
sharing intellectual capital with opportunities to learn from each other. CFO’s will also soon be meeting for the
same purpose.
NEW BUSINESS
Medical Staff Credentialing
A motion was made by Ellsworth, second by Wosje to approve the credentialing and re-credentialing requests
as recommended by the Medical Executive Committee.
Action: All present voted yes; motion carried.
BEDC Annual Report
Brookings Economic Development Corporation annual report was distributed to members along with a letter
thanking the Board of Trustees for their commitment and requesting continued support. Merkley currently has
a seat on the board and stated it is a good group of individuals who work together to have a positive impact on
the city. Brookings Health System has been giving $50k annually to BEDC and growth indicators from the 2016
project update are impressive. After discussion, the Board agreed it is important to continue to provide support
at the current level.
Capital Campaign Donor Appreciation Event – June 2nd
Merkley noted the Donor Appreciation event will be held on June 2nd at 5:30 p.m. at the McCrory Gardens Visitor
Center and encouraged Board Members to attend if possible.
Vision Brookings III
Merkley shared, a pledge request was recently received from Vision Brookings III which will begin in 2017.
Brookings Health System has invested in both VB I and VB II. Two years remain to complete the health system’s
pledge to VB II. Vision Brookings III is requesting the health system pledge $150k over a period of five years. In
previous years dollars were directed towards specific areas such as workforce development, business
expansion, entrepreneurship, etc. Members agreed it would be beneficial to direct dollars towards workforce
development in healthcare for students interested in the health field. This discussion will continue at June’s
Board meeting.
STRATEGIC DISCUSSION
Financing/Borrowing Analysis
For informational purposes Lindemann presented an analysis on borrowing for the construction project and its
impact on cash flow for the organization. Key assumptions are that the project is estimated to be about $50M
and we will need to keep $7M-$10M in cash (on top of our investments) to maintain the Board objective of 180
days cash on hand. At this point in the project, we have not had to borrow as we have been able to use cash from
operations. Projections estimate that beginning this fall we will need to borrow approximately $5M per month.
EXECUTIVE SESSION
None
A motion to adjourn was made by Wosje, second by Englund at 7:00 p.m. Motion carried.
