“Background ========== Newark Beth Israel Medical Center ("NBIMC"), a 665-bed teaching hospital established in 1901, provides comprehensive healthcare services to its local communities and is a major referral and treatment center for patients throughout the northern New Jersey metropolitan area. NBIMC is located in the County of Essex, within the city of Newark, which has the most population of all cities in New Jersey. Essex County is the second most densely populated county in the state and the 14th most densely populated in the United States. Essex County is the second most densely populated of the 21 counties and has the third largest total population in the state. Essex has the third largest total population in the state containing 21 counties had had the 6th largest increase in population size estimated from 2010 to 2018. Essex County, a leading financial and industrial hub of the state, consists of both urban and suburban communities that represent a broad range of racial/ethnic and cultural diversity. NBIMC is a major teaching hospital and is recognized by the internal revenue service ("IRS") as an internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Pursuant to its charitable purposes, NBIMC provides medically necessary healthcare services to all individuals in a non-discriminatory manner regardless of age, color, race, religion, national origin, sex, sexual preference, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, genetic predisposition, handicap or disability, marital status, pregnancy status, ability to pay or source of payment or for services in the United States Armed Forces. Moreover, NBIMC operates consistently with the following criteria outlined in IRS revenue ruling 69-545: 1. NBIMC provides medically necessary healthcare services to all individuals regardless of ability to pay, including charity care, self-pay, Medicare and Medicaid patients; 2. NBIMC operates an active emergency department for all persons which is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days per year; with both specialized pediatric and geriatric emergency rooms; 3. NBIMC maintains an open medical staff, with privileges available to all qualified physicians; 4. Control of NBIMC rests with its board of trustees and the board of trustees of RWJ Barnabas Health, Inc. Both boards are comprised of independent civic leaders and other prominent members of the community; and 5. Surplus funds are used to improve the quality of patient care, expand and renovate facilities and advance medical care, programs and activities. The operations of NBIMC, as shown through the factors outlined above and other information contained herein, clearly demonstrate that the hospital provides substantial community benefit and that the use and control of NBIMC is for the benefit of the public and that no part of the income or net earnings of the organization inures to the benefit of any private individual, nor is any private interest being served other than incidentally. NBIMC's sole corporate member is RWJ Barnabas Health, Inc. ("RWJ BHthe "System"). RWJ BH is also the tax-exempt New Jersey non-profit parent corporation of RWJBARNABAS HEALTH ("RWJBH"); an integrated healthcare delivery system. The sole member of each entity is either RWJ BH or another RWJBH affiliate controlled or owned by RWJ BH. NBIMC, like its corporate parent, is a not-for-profit organization.

("BH"), the parent of the Barnabas Health System ("Barnabas Health"), and Robert Wood Johnson Health Care Corporation ("RWJHCC"), the parent of the former Robert Wood Johnson Health System ("RWJHS"). The definitive agreement signed on July 14, 2015, outlined the combination of these two leading health systems and created the largest and most comprehensive healthcare delivery system in the state of New Jersey an”

“In 2018, RWJBH announced with Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, the official launch of their public-private partnership to jointly operate a world-class academic health system dedicated to life-changing research, clinical training of tomorrows workforce, and high-quality healthcare for all. This planned collaboration represents a significant step forward to improve access to care and reduce the health disparities that impact our state. The parties have a shared belief that while both organizations are strong leaders in our respective fields, together they are better poised to transform healthcare in New Jersey and drive innovations that will improve outcomes across the country. The new collaboration also will align education, research, and clinical activities, including those at the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey and Rutgers University behavioral health care. By working together, these two higher education and health care industry leaders will enhance research, medical and health professional education, improve access to care, and reduce health disparities in New Jersey.

The program provides the most advanced treatment options available anywhere in New Jersey for people with congestive heart failure or end stage cardiac disease including the ultimate treatment; organ transplantation. NBIMC's short and long-term survival rates have continually surpassed both regional and national averages. Furthermore, the patients spend less time waiting for a heart transplant than most candidates across the country. The experienced multidisciplinary team has worked closely together under the same leadership for more than 20 years. NBIMC is a designated ventricular assist devise ("VAD") center and was one of the first in NJ to employ extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ("ECMO"). 2.

“Medical and Community Services ============================== NBIMC services include an array of additional medical services and programs that address the healthcare needs of its communities, from diagnostic, to prevention and treatment. We are always looking for innovative ways to reach members of our community as we work to improve health status. A few of our successful programs include: Monday night football/men's health night with the Beth ------------------------------------------------------ NBIMC was looking for a better way to connect men to having healthy lifestyles and to engage them in improving their quality of life through healthy living. We decided to create programming that would combine things that men enjoy (sports) with things that men historically don't do (have regular health checkups and screenings). Two years ago, we created and hosted Monday night football/men's health night with the Beth. The goal was to use a former NFL player (George Martin) to encourage men to follow his journey to healthy living through diet, exercise and positive living. The evening event includes a presentation by George Martin, followed by power point presentations by four physicians from NBIMC; a cardiologist, an orthopedic surgeon, a urologist and a primary care physician. Before and after the presentations, the men receive a number of screenings, followed by massages and more. The event is strategically held at the Maplewood golf course, and the evening includes a mini-golf exercise as well. Following the presentations, the tailgate party kicks off with food and beverages better than the giants parking lot, followed by the game on tv screens throughout the Maplewood country club. In the first year, our goal was to have 50 men. By the time word spread days before the event, we hosted 102 men, many of whom are now connected to the Beth and who have received a prostate screening and more. This past year, 106 men were immediately screened for prostate as well. In the second year, a Newark fireman told us this event is his yearly reminder to get healthy and stay healthy. He said from Monday night football, he found that he had diabetes and hypertension. He has since lost more than 50 pounds and continues to enjoy life more fully. Men's health night has since spread to high school athletes (unisex) where George Martin speaks to athletes at Newark's Shabazz High School about healthy living and we are about to launch a similar program at our second church. Women's Health Day at the Beth ------------------------------ The women of the South Ward of Newark and other parts of the city always support NBIMCs annual health fair which has been held in September for more than 15 years. A couple of years ago, so many women attended the event that it gave us the idea of creating a health day just for women. The health day would include lectures, guest speakers, screenings, wellness and an exclusive lunch as part of a wellness initiative to improve the health of women in Newark. The first year, we partnered with Rutgers university/Newark to encourage students, professors and employees to join us on a journey of wellness. More than 200 women registered for the day-long wellness program that included NBIMC physicians focused on women's health. The second year, we decided to develop a program for 100 women. From screenings and private consultations with physicians to conversations with geriatricians to yoga, cooking, diet, exercise, massages and healthy eating classes, the day became the highlight of their commitment to begin a regimen of healthy living. The day also included special gifts for women such as journals, makeup donated by Queen Latifah/Revlon, and gifts to serve as a reminder that healthy living can be rewarding. We are looking at ways to explore new ground and new opportunities to make wellness a focal point for the women of the South Ward and Newark.

“Project Opportunity ------------------- The Beth Greenhouse and Opportunity Project have teamed up as community partners. The goal is to bring the brain injury community together in order to learn about sustainability, hydroponic gardening, and nutrition. Through the invaluable instruction of Karen Basedow, and Lorraine Gibbons, members of Opportunity Project were able to assist in planting, transplanting, and harvesting of various herbs and leafy greens. Members also were able to participate in nutrition classes at Newark Beth Israels Wellness Center led by Karen Basedow and her team. Through these combined courses, members were able to see the development of their produce from seeds to utilizing them in the kitchen at the Wellness Center. Members learned about the process of farming and the importance of consuming fresh, whole foods. The Rev. Dr. Ronald B. Community Health and Wellness Center ----------------------------------------------------------- The Wellness center offers a variety of health and wellness programming including nutrition education, healthy cooking classes, diabetes prevention and fitness classes (450 in total).

The greenhouse and wellness center work in synergy increases the access to the healthy food participants are learning about in the classes. ShopRite -------- There is an extensive partnership with ShopRite in which the wellness team works closely with the corporate ShopRite to expand the reach of nutrition education and access to healthy foods. In addition to the retail version of KidsFit, the Newark Beth Israel Medical center Dietitians developed an adult wellness program and trained 60 ShopRite RDs on the program.

Recognition and prizes are offered for those who lose the largest percentage of weight or meet their fitness goals at the end of a 12-week period. Contestants can enter as individuals, and/or teams. The program runs continuously during the year to reinforce importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The program began as a small weight loss contest for employees of NBIMC and quickly grew into a sustainable worksite wellness program that has served as program model and has been successfully replicated in the surrounding community. Program highlights and strengths: - promote health and wellness in the surrounding community; - employees who participate in the Beth Challenge program within the medical center set an example of healthy lifestyle behaviors for the community; - fosters collaboration with key community partners in delivering the wellness message; - provides nutrition and exercise education and support within the institution and within community venues such as faith based organizations, schools, businesses and government offices; - addresses obesity epidemic and obstacles to improving and/or achieving health through the expertise and support of the NBIMC; - provides nutrition and fitness education through monthly classes and couns”

Newark public schools structured learning experience program -------------------------------------------------------------- The structured learning experience program is designed to increase the career potential of high school students with disabilities by offering them internship opportunities. The volunteer services department takes 12 students (seniors as of September) with learning disabilities to help them make the transition from school to work. The students are chosen from different high schools throughout the city of Newark. These students actually do their senior year at NBIMC. Students receive instruction on site from a special education teacher paid for by the Newark public school system. The remainder of the time is spent working in different areas of the hospital. Our contribution is the work experience, plus lunch. The program helps employers and their non-disabled employees recognize that young people with disabilities can become a highly valued resource in the workplace.
