THAT THE POVERTY RATE HAS RISEN SHARPLY IN
RECENT YEARS, AS IS TRUE IN THE STATE THE
PERCENTAGE OF FAMILIES QUALIFYING FOR FREE OR

Connecticut and is part of an affiliated group which consists of its parent corporation, Griffin Health
Services Corporation ("GHSC"), including Griffin Pharmacy and Gifts ("GP&G"), and certain other
affiliates, primarily the Griffin Hospital Development Fund ("GHDF"), the fund-raising organization
for GHSC and the other tax-exempt subsidiaries, G H Ventures, Inc ("GHV"), a for profit

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Hospital and its wholly owned
subsidiary, FPP All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in
consolidation
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting
Resources are reported for accounting purposes in separate classes of net assets based on the
existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions In the accompanying financial statements, net
assets have been reported as follows
Permanently Restricted
Net assets subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that they be maintained by the Hospital in
perpetuity are classified as permanently restricted Generally, the donors of these assets permit
the Hospital to use all or part of the investment return on these assets for operating purposes
Temporarily Restricted
Net assets whose use by the Hospital is subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that can be
fulfilled upon incurrence of expenses by the Hospital pursuant to those stipulations or that expire by
the passage of time are classified as temporarily restricted
Unrestricted
Net assets that are not subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations are classified as unrestricted
Unrestricted net assets may be designated for specific purposes by action of the Board of Trustees
or may otherwise be limited by contractual agreements with outside parties

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2011 and 2010
Revenues from sources other than contributions are reported in unrestricted net assets
Contributions are reported as increases in the applicable category of net assets, consistent with
donor designation Expenses are reported as decreases in unrestricted net assets Gains and
losses on investments and other assets or liabilities are reported as increases or decreases in
unrestricted net assets, unless their use is restricted by explicit donor stipulations or by law
Expirations of temporary restrictions on net assets, that is, the donor-imposed stipulated purpose
has been accomplished and/or stipulated time period has elapsed, are reported as reclassifications
between the applicable classes of net assets
Grant revenues and expenses relating to Hospital operations are included within operating
revenues and expenses Grant revenues and expenses relating to research are included within
nonoperating gains and losses
Contributions, including unconditional promises to give, are recognized as increases in net assets
at the date the gift or promise is received Contributions of assets other than cash are recorded at
their estimated fair value Contributions to be received after one year are discounted at a rate
commensurate with the risks involved Amortization of the discount is recorded as additional
contribution revenue in accordance with the donor-imposed stipulations, if any, on the
contributions
Contributions restricted for the acquisition of land, buildings and equipment are reported as
temporarily restricted support These contributions are reclassified to unrestricted net assets when
the capital asset is acquired or placed in service
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period Actual results could differ from those estimates The
Hospital's and FPP's significant estimates include the allowances for patient accounts receivable
contractual allowances and estimated final settlements due to or from third party payors,
professional and general liability loss reserves and pension assumptions
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include investments in highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased, excluding amounts whose use is limited by the Board of Trustees
or other restrictive arrangements
The majority of the Hospital's banking activity, including cash and cash equivalents, is maintained
with a regional bank and from time to time exceeds federal insurance limits It is the Hospital's
policy to monitor the bank's financial strength on an ongoing basis
Beneficial Interest in Trusts
The fair value of contributions received from perpetual trust assets held by third parties is
measured at the Hospital's proportionate share of the fair value of the trust's assets at the time the
Hospital is notified of the trust's existence and periodically adjusted for changes in value
Distributions received by the Hospital may be restricted by the donor These assets are classified
as permanently restricted net assets

Inventories
Inventories, which are included in other current assets, are stated at the lower of cost, using the
first-in, first-out method, or market Inventories are included in other current assets
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value standards define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value The
framework provides a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure
fair value The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs
(level 3 measurements) The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under this principle are as
follows
Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or
liabilities in active markets that the Hospital and FPP have the ability to access
Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include

quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets,


quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets,
inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability,
inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by
correlation or other means

If the asset or liability has a specified term, the level 2 input must be observable for
substantially the full term of the asset or liability
Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value
measurement
The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the
lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement Valuation techniques
used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs
The fair value of the Hospital's and FPP's investments is based on quoted market values
The fair value of the Hospital's interest rate swaps liability is based on observable inputs other than
quoted prices for similar instruments
Investments and Investment Income
Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values and all investments in debt
securities are measured at fair value at the balance sheet date Investments of donor restricted
funds are classified as long-term investments Investment income or loss (including realized and
unrealized gains and losses on investments, interest and dividends) is included in the deficiency of
revenues over expenses unless the income or loss is restricted by donor or law
Assets Limited As To Use
Assets limited as to use include assets set aside by the Board of Trustees in a depreciation fund for
future capital improvements, and assets held by a trustee under an indenture agreement
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost or in the case of donated property at the fair
value at the date of gift Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each class of
depreciable asset and is computed using the straight-line method with one-half year of depreciation
8

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2011 and 2010
expense recorded in the year of acquisition Uniform useful lives assigned to assets are based
upon the American Hospital Association estimated useful lives of depreciable hospital assets
guidelines and range from 5 to 50 years Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred, and betterments and major renewals are capitalized Upon sale or disposal of property,
plant or equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective
accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations Equipment under capital leases is
amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life
of the equipment Such amortization is included in depreciation and amortization expense
Interest cost incurred on borrowed funds during the construction period of capital assets is
capitalized as a component of the cost of acquiring those assets The Hospital capitalized
approximately $51,000 of interest costs related to construction projects in 2010, and none in 2011
The Hospital performed a review of certain building improvement and construction assets during
the course of the year The review determined that certain assets were being depreciated over a
term that was shorter than the assets' expected life As such the useful lives were adjusted and
the corresponding depreciation was prospectively adjusted as appropriate The changes in the
useful lives lead to a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $461,000 during 2011
Gifts of long-lived assets such as land, buildings, or equipment are reported as unrestricted
support, and are excluded from the deficiency of revenues over expenses, unless explicit donor
stipulations specify how the donated assets must be used Gifts of long-lived assets with explicit
restrictions that specify how the assets are to be used and gifts of cash or other assets that must
be used to acquire long-lived assets are reported as restricted support Absent explicit donor
stipulations about how long-lived assets must be maintained, expirations of donor restrictions are
reported when the donated or acquired long-lived assets are placed in service
Asset Retirement Obligation
The Hospital accrues for asset retirement obligations, primarily asbestos related removal costs, in
the period in which they are incurred if sufficient information is available to reasonably estimate the
obligation Over time, the liability is accreted to its settlement value Upon settlement of the
liability, the Hospital will recognize a gain or loss for any difference between the settlement amount
and the liability recorded
Interest in Net Assets of Affiliate
Interest in net assets of affiliate represents the Hospital's interest in the net assets of GHDF
Cost of Borrowing
Issuance costs related to the Hospital's bond issuance are being amortized using the effective
interest method over the life of the debt Amortization expense, which is included in interest
expense, was $69,382 and $83,858 for 2011 and 2010, respectively
The discount from face value at which debt has been issued is reflected as a reduction of the
carrying value of such debt The premium from face value at which debt has been issued is
reflected as an addition to the carrying value of such debt Discounts and premiums are amortized
or accreted over the life of the debt, using the effective interest method
Professional and General Liability Loss Reserves
The liability for claims is determined by management based on data processed by independent
loss adjusters The liability for adverse claims development and the liability for claims incurred but
not reported are determined by management based on actuarial studies of related data prepared
by independent actuaries

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2011 and 2010
Due to the nature of the underlying insurance risks and the general uncertainty surrounding
medical malpractice claims settlement, the liability for losses is an estimate and could vary
significantly from the amount ultimately paid However, the liability for losses reflects the best
estimate of ultimate loss based on historical experience and actuarial projections
Deficiency of Revenues Over Expenses
The statement of operations includes a deficiency of revenues over expenses Changes in
unrestricted net assets which are excluded from deficiency of revenues over expenses, consistent
with industry practice, include changes in interests in net assets of affiliate, transfers of assets to
and from affiliates for other than goods and services, and pension and other post-retirement related
changes other than net periodic benefit cost
Net Patient Service Revenue
The Hospital and FPP have agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments at
amounts different from established rates Payment arrangements include prospectively determined
rates per discharge, reimbursed costs, discounted charges, per diem payments, fee schedule
payments and capitated fees Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net
realizable amounts from patients, third-party payors, and others for services rendered, including
estimated retroactive adjustments under reimbursement agreements with third-party payors due to
future audits, reviews and investigations
Retroactive adjustments are accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related services are
rendered and adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known or as years are no longer
subject to such audits, reviews or investigations Contracts, loans and regulations governing the
Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation As a result, there is at
least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates may change by a material amount in the
future During 2010 and 2009, the Hospital recorded several adjustments for amounts recognized
related to prior years, including adjustments to prior year estimates The net effect of such
adjustments was decrease in net patient service revenue of approximately $156,824 in 2011 and
an increase of approximately $167,000 in 2010
Free Care
The Hospital provides care to patients who meet certain criteria under its free care policy without
charge or at amounts less than its established and contractual rates Because the Hospital does
not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as free care, they are not reported as net
patient service revenue Free care of approximately $7,580,000 and $8,959,000 measured at the
Hospital's respective established rates was provided in fiscal year 2011 and 2010, respectively
Income Taxes
The Hospital and FPP are not-for-profit organizations, exempt from federal income taxes under
Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code
Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated subsequent events for the period after September 30, 2011 through
February 6, 2012, the date the financial statements were issued
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2010 consolidated financial statement have been reclassified to conform to
the 2011 financial statement presentation

The Hospital and FPP have agreements with the Federal Medicare Program ("Medicare"), the
State of Connecticut ("State") Medicaid Program ("Medicaid"), and certain indemnity and managed
care programs that determine payments for services rendered to patients covered by these
programs
A summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors is as follows
Medicare
The Hospital is reimbursed for services rendered to nonpsychiatric inpatients under the prospective
payment system ("PPS"), under which payments are based on standard national and regional
amounts depending on patient diagnosis (Diagnosis Related Group or "DRG") and without regard
to the Hospital's actual costs PPS permits additional payments, within specified limitations, to be
made for atypical cases (outliers) and graduate medical education Inpatient psychiatric services
are also paid under a prospective per deem payment system established by Medicare
The Hospital is reimbursed for most outpatient services under a prospective payment methodology
based on ambulatory payment classifications ("APC") which are paid on standard national and
regional amounts for procedures rendered to the patients and without regard to the Hospital's
actual costs The remaining outpatient services (e g , routine clinical lab, physical therapy) are
reimbursed on a fee schedule
The Hospital is reimbursed for cost reimbursable items at a tentative rate with final settlement after
submission of annual cost reports and audits thereof by the Medicare fiscal intermediary The
estimated amounts due to or from the program are reviewed and adjusted annually based on the
status of such audits and any subsequent appeals Differences between final settlements and
amounts accrued in previous years are reported as adjustments to net patient service revenue in
the year the examination is substantially complete The Hospital's Medicare cost reports have
been audited by the Medicare fiscal intermediary through September 30, 2007
Medicaid
Inpatient services rendered to Medicaid program beneficiaries , except for those beneficiaries in the
State's Aid to Families with Dependent Children ("AFDC") population , are reimbursed under a cost
reimbursement methodology The Hospital is reimbursed a tentative rate with final settlement
determined after submission of annual cost reports by the Hospital and audits thereof by the State
Outpatient services are reimbursed at predetermined fee schedules or percent of charges In
addition , the State also contracts with various managed care organizations to provide services to
the State 's AFDC population The Hospital contracts with one or more of these managed care
organizations and provides services on a per deem rate for inpatient and fee schedules or percent
of charges for outpatients

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2011 and 2010
Other Payers
The Hospital has also entered into payment agreements with certain commercial insurance
carriers, health maintenance organizations, and preferred provider organizations The basis for
payment to the Hospital under these agreements includes prospectively determined rates per
discharge, discounts from established charges, prospectively determined per diem rates, fee
schedule payments and capitated fees
Future Reimbursement
Current trends in the health care industry include mergers and other forms of affiliations among
providers, increasing shifts to managed care, an overall reduction in inpatient average length of
stay, increasingly restrictive reimbursement policies by governmental and private payors, and the
prospect of significant changes in legislation at the State and national level The Hospital cannot
assess or project the ultimate effect of these or other items that may have an impact on the future
operations of the Hospital

Insurance Liability Loss Reserves


HAIC insures the professional and general liabilities of the Hospital under a claims-made policy
with a retroactive date of October 1, 1986 There are known claims and incidents that may result in
the assertion of additional claims as well as claims from unknown incidents that may be asserted
arising from services provided to patients The Hospital has utilized independent actuaries to
estimate the ultimate costs, if any, of the settlement of such claims Accrued malpractice reserves
for professional and general liability have been discounted at 3 5% at September 30, 2011 and
4 0% at September 30, 2010 In management's opinion these reserves provide an adequate
reserve for loss The Hospital has purchased excess insurance coverage to cover claims in excess
of $1,500,000 and $4,500,000 in the aggregate An independent actuary has been utilized to
estimate the ultimate cost of claims incurred contingencies
Effective January 1, 2003 Griffin Hospital began retaining the first $250,000 of all loss and
allocated loss adjustment expense per accident for its workers compensation exposure Excess
coverage above $250,000 per accident was purchased Beginning January 1, 2007 the per
occurrence retention was increased to $300,000 Annual aggregate coverage was also purchased
which provides $1 million of coverage above a maximum limit of retained losses within the per
occurrence retention Beginning October 1, 2010 the per occurrence retention was increased to
$400,000 and the annual aggregate coverage was discontinued The workers' compensation
reserves have been discounted at 3 0% and 3 5% at September 30, 2011 and 2010 respectively,
and in management's opinion provide an adequate reserve for loss contingencies
The Hospital also has recorded self-insurance reserves for its employee health plan, for the
deductible portion of workers' compensation indemnity losses from January 1, 1999 and prior, and
for the medical cost component of its workers' compensation losses prior to January 1, 2003,
subject to certain umbrella and stop-loss coverage limits The Hospital accrues its best estimate of
its retained liability for occurrences through each balance sheet date

Derivative Instruments
The Hospital initially issued its Series 2007 Series C and 2007 Series D bonds bearing interest at a
variable rate In May 2007, the Hospital entered into two interest rate swap agreements to manage
interest rate risk These agreements involve payment of fixed rate interest payments by the
Hospital in exchange for the receipt of variable rate interest payments from the counterparties,
17

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2011 and 2010
based on a percentage of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) In 2008, the Hospital
refinanced the Series 2007 bonds and issued the Series 2008 Bonds These bonds also bear
interest at a variable rate The two original swap agreements continue to be utilized by the Hospital
to manage its interest rate risk At September 30, 2011, the notional amount of the derivative
financial instruments was $22,625,000 (Series 2008 Issue C nontaxable bonds) and $10,750,000
(Series 2008 Issue D taxable bonds), respectively
Upon the occurrence of certain events of default or termination events identified in the derivative
contracts, either the Hospital or the counterparty could terminate the contract in accordance with its
terms Termination would result in the payment of a termination amount by one party to
compensate the other party for its economic losses The cost of termination would depend, in
major part, on the then current interest rate levels, and if the interest rate levels were then lower
than those specified in the derivative contract, the cost of termination to the Hospital could be
significant
The fair value of these derivatives was a liability of $7,973,902 and $6,822,104 as of
September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which is included in long-term liabilities The impact
of the change in fair value was $1,151,797 and $2,200,011 for the years ended September 30,
2011 and 2010, respectively This change is included in the net realized and unrealized losses on
interest rate swap agreements, which also includes the net periodic settlement payments related to
the swap agreements of $1,376,109 and $1,325,683 for 2011 and 2010, respectively

and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent person acting in like capacity

aims Investment of the Trust shall be diversified to minimize the risk of large losses, unless under
the circumstances it is clearly prudent not to do so The long term strategy of the fund is to achieve

Endowments
The Hospital's endowment funds consist of donor restricted funds to be invested in perpetuity to
provide a permanent source of income The net assets associated with endowment funds are
classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor imposed restrictions
The Hospital has interpreted the Connecticut UPMIFA statute as requiring the preservation of the
original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds absent explicit donor
stipulations to the contrary As a result of this interpretation, the Hospital classifies as permanently
restricted net assets, (a) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the
original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations to the
permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift
instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund The remaining portion of the
donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is
classified as temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure
by the Hospital in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by UPMIFA In
accordance with UPMIFA, the Hospital considers the following factors in making a determination to
appropriate or accumulate endowment funds
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)

The duration and preservation of the fund


The purposes of the Hospital and the donor restricted endowment fund
General economic conditions
The possible effect of inflation and deflation
The expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments

permanent nature of each endowment fund, while providing a predictable, stable, and constant
stream of earnings Consistent with that objective, the primary investment goal is to earn annual
interest and dividends

Commitments and Contingencies


The Hospital is involved in various legal matters arising in the normal course of activities Although
the ultimate outcome is not determinable at this time, management, after taking into consideration
advice of legal counsel, believes that the resolution of these pending matters will not have a
material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, upon the consolidated financial
statements

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
Organization
The Griffin Hospital (the "Hospital") is a licensed 160-bed acute care hospital located in Derby,
Connecticut and is part of an affiliated group which consists of its parent corporation, Griffin Health
Services Corporation ("GHSC"), including Griffin Pharmacy and Gifts ("GP&G"), and certain other
affiliates, primarily the Griffin Hospital Development Fund ("GHDF"), the fund-raising organization
for GHSC and the other tax-exempt subsidiaries, G H Ventures, Inc ("GHV"), a for profit
organization currently managing medical office buildings, Planetree Inc ("Planetree"), a not-forprofit entity assisting hospitals and other health care facilities in the development and
implementation of a patient centered model of care, the Griffin Faculty Practice Plan, Inc ("FPP"), a
not-for-profit entity incorporated for the purpose of providing medical services and to charge for
services performed by physicians as supervisors of interns, and Healthcare Alliance Insurance
Company, Ltd ("HAIC"), a for profit off-shore captive insurance company
In February 2008 , the Hospital and GHV entered into a joint venture with TOPCO Associates, LLC,
to form a company called NuVal The purpose of this company is to commercialize an "Overall
Nutrition Quality Index " system , developed by the Hospital for promoting healthy eating habits
among the general population The Hospital's ownership interest in NuVal was transferred to GHV
in 2008 and as such all amounts related to NuVal are recorded in the GHV and consolidated GHSC
financial statements

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Hospital and its wholly owned
subsidiary, FPP All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in
consolidation
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting
Resources are reported for accounting purposes in separate classes of net assets based on the
existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions In the accompanying financial statements, net
assets have been reported as follows
Permanently Restricted
Net assets subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that they be maintained by the Hospital in
perpetuity are classified as permanently restricted Generally, the donors of these assets permit
the Hospital to use all or part of the investment return on these assets for operating purposes
Temporarily Restricted
Net assets whose use by the Hospital is subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that can be
fulfilled upon incurrence of expenses by the Hospital pursuant to those stipulations or that expire by
the passage of time are classified as temporarily restricted
Unrestricted

Net assets that are not subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations are classified as unrestricted
Unrestricted net assets may be designated for specific purposes by action of the Board of Trustees
or may otherwise be limited by contractual agreements with outside parties

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
Revenues from sources other than contributions are reported in unrestricted net assets
Contributions are reported as increases in the applicable category of net assets, consistent with
donor designation Expenses are reported as decreases in unrestricted net assets Gains and
losses on investments and other assets or liabilities are reported as increases or decreases in
unrestricted net assets, unless their use is restricted by explicit donor stipulations or by law
Expirations of temporary restrictions on net assets, that is, the donor-imposed stipulated purpose
has been accomplished and/or stipulated time period has elapsed, are reported as reclassifications
between the applicable classes of net assets
Grant revenues and expenses relating to Hospital operations are included within operating
revenues and expenses Grant revenues and expenses relating to research are included within
nonoperating gains and losses
Contributions, including unconditional promises to give, are recognized as increases in net assets
at the date the gift or promise is received Contributions of assets other than cash are recorded at
their estimated fair value Contributions to be received after one year are discounted at a rate
commensurate with the risks involved Amortization of the discount is recorded as additional
contribution revenue in accordance with the donor-imposed stipulations, if any, on the
contributions
Contributions restricted for the acquisition of land, buildings and equipment are reported as
temporarily restricted support These contributions are reclassified to unrestricted net assets when
the capital asset is acquired or placed in service
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period Actual results could differ from those estimates The
Hospital's and FPP's significant estimates include the allowances for patient accounts receivable
contractual allowances and estimated final settlements due to or from third party payors,
professional and general liability loss reserves and pension assumptions
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include investments in highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased, excluding amounts whose use is limited by the Board of Trustees
or other restrictive arrangements
The majority of the Hospital's banking activity, including cash and cash equivalents, is maintained
with a regional bank and from time to time exceeds federal insurance limits It is the Hospital's
policy to monitor the bank ' s financial strength on an ongoing basis
Beneficial Interest in Trusts
The fair value of contributions received from perpetual trust assets held by third parties is
measured at the Hospital's proportionate share of the fair value of the trust's assets at the time the
Hospital is notified of the trust's existence and periodically adjusted for changes in value
Distributions received by the Hospital may be restricted by the donor These assets are classified
as permanently restricted net assets

Inventories
Inventories, which are included in other current assets, are stated at the lower of cost, using the
first-in, first-out method, or market Inventories are included in other current assets
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value standards define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value The
framework provides a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure
fair value The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs
(Level 3 measurements) The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under this principle are as
follows
Level 1

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or
liabilities in active markets that the Hospital and FPP have the ability to access

Level 2

Inputs to the valuation methodology include

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets,

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets,

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability,

Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data
by correlation or other means

If the asset or liability has a specified term, the Level 2 input must be observable for
substantially the full term of the asset or liability
Level 3

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value
measurement

The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the
lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement Valuation techniques
used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs
The fair value of the Hospital's and FPP's investments is based on quoted market values
The fair value of the Hospital's interest rate swaps liability is based on observable inputs other than
quoted prices for similar instruments
Investments and Investment Income
Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values and all investments in debt
securities are measured at fair value at the balance sheet date Investments of donor restricted
funds are classified as long-term investments Investment income or loss (including realized and
unrealized gains and losses on investments, interest and dividends) is included in the deficiency of
revenues over expenses unless the income or loss is restricted by donor or law
Assets Limited as to Use
Assets limited as to use include assets set aside by the Board of Trustees in a depreciation fund for
future capital improvements, and assets held by a trustee under an indenture agreement

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost or in the case of donated property at the fair
value at the date of gift Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each class of
depreciable asset and is computed using the straight-line method with one-half year of depreciation
expense recorded in the year of acquisition Uniform useful lives assigned to assets are based
upon the American Hospital Association estimated useful lives of depreciable hospital assets
guidelines and range from 5 to 50 years Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred, and betterments and major renewals are capitalized Upon sale or disposal of property,
plant or equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective
accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations Equipment under capital leases is
amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life
of the equipment Such amortization is included in depreciation and amortization expense
Interest cost incurred on borrowed funds during the construction period of capital assets is
capitalized as a component of the cost of acquiring those assets
The Hospital performed a review of certain building improvement and construction assets during
the course of last year The review determined that certain assets were being depreciated over a
term that was shorter than the assets' expected life As such the useful lives were adjusted and
the corresponding depreciation was prospectively adjusted as appropriate The changes in the
useful lives lead to a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $461,000 during 2011
Gifts of long-lived assets such as land, buildings, or equipment are reported as unrestricted
support, and are excluded from the deficiency of revenues over expenses, unless explicit donor
stipulations specify how the donated assets must be used Gifts of long-lived assets with explicit
restrictions that specify how the assets are to be used and gifts of cash or other assets that must
be used to acquire long-lived assets are reported as restricted support Absent explicit donor
stipulations about how long-lived assets must be maintained, expirations of donor restrictions are
reported when the donated or acquired long-lived assets are placed in service
Asset Retirement Obligation
The Hospital accrues for asset retirement obligations, primarily asbestos related removal costs, in
the period in which they are incurred if sufficient information is available to reasonably estimate the
obligation Over time, the liability is accreted to its settlement value Upon settlement of the
liability, the Hospital will recognize a gain or loss for any difference between the settlement amount
and the liability recorded
Interest in Net Assets of Affiliate
Interest in net assets of affiliate represents the Hospital's interest in the net assets of GHDF
Cost of Borrowing
Issuance costs related to the Hospital's bond issuance are being amortized using the effective
interest method over the life of the debt Amortization expense, which is included in interest
expense, was $66,926 and $69,382 for 2012 and 2011, respectively
The discount from face value at which debt has been issued is reflected as a reduction of the
carrying value of such debt The premium from face value at which debt has been issued is
reflected as an addition to the carrying value of such debt Discounts and premiums are amortized
or accreted over the life of the debt, using the effective interest method

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
Professional and General Liability Loss Reserves
The liability for claims is determined by management based on data processed by independent
loss adjusters The liability for adverse claims development and the liability for claims incurred but
not reported are determined by management based on actuarial studies of related data prepared
by independent actuaries
Due to the nature of the underlying insurance risks and the general uncertainty surrounding
medical malpractice claims settlement, the liability for losses is an estimate and could vary
significantly from the amount ultimately paid However, the liability for losses reflects the best
estimate of ultimate loss based on historical experience and actuarial projections
Deficiency of Revenues Over Expenses
The statement of operations includes a deficiency of revenues over expenses Changes in
unrestricted net assets which are excluded from deficiency of revenues over expenses, consistent
with industry practice, include changes in interests in net assets of affiliate, transfers of assets to
and from affiliates for other than goods and services, and pension and other post-retirement related
changes other than net periodic benefit cost
Net Patient Service Revenue
The Hospital and FPP have agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments at
amounts different from established rates Payment arrangements include prospectively determined
rates per discharge, reimbursed costs, discounted charges, per diem payments, fee schedule
payments and capitated fees Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net
realizable amounts from patients, third-party payors, and others for services rendered, including
estimated retroactive adjustments under reimbursement agreements with third-party payors due to
future audits, reviews and investigations
Retroactive adjustments are accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related services are
rendered and adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known or as years are no longer
subject to such audits, reviews or investigations Contracts, loans and regulations governing the
Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation As a result, there is at
least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates may change by a material amount in the
future During 2012 and 2011, the Hospital recorded several adjustments for amounts recognized
related to prior years, including adjustments to prior year estimates The net effect of such
adjustments was decrease in net patient service revenue of approximately $553,459 in 2012 and a
decrease of approximately $156,824 in 2011
Free Care
The Hospital provides care to patients who meet certain criteria under its free care policy without
charge or at amounts less than its established and contractual rates Because the Hospital does
not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as free care, they are not reported as net
patient service revenue Free care of approximately $6,785,000 and $7,580,000 measured at the
Hospital's respective established rates was provided in fiscal year 2012 and 2011, respectively
Income Taxes
The Hospital and FPP are not-for-profit organizations, exempt from federal income taxes under
Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code

The Hospital and FPP have agreements with the Federal Medicare Program ("Medicare"), the
State of Connecticut ("State") Medicaid Program ("Medicaid"), and certain indemnity and managed
care programs that determine payments for services rendered to patients covered by these
programs
A summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors is as follows
Medicare
The Hospital is reimbursed for services rendered to nonpsychiatric inpatients under the prospective
payment system ("PPS"), under which payments are based on standard national and regional
amounts depending on patient diagnosis (Diagnosis Related Group or "DRG") and without regard
to the Hospital's actual costs PPS permits additional payments, within specified limitations, to be
made for atypical cases (outliers) and graduate medical education Inpatient psychiatric services
are also paid under a prospective per diem payment system established by Medicare
The Hospital is reimbursed for most outpatient services under a prospective payment methodology
based on ambulatory payment classifications ("APC") which are paid on standard national and
regional amounts for procedures rendered to the patients and without regard to the Hospital's
actual costs The remaining outpatient services (e g , routine clinical lab, physical therapy) are
reimbursed on a fee schedule
The Hospital is reimbursed for cost reimbursable items at a tentative rate with final settlement after
submission of annual cost reports and audits thereof by the Medicare fiscal intermediary The
estimated amounts due to or from the program are reviewed and adjusted annually based on the
status of such audits and any subsequent appeals Differences between final settlements and
amounts accrued in previous years are reported as adjustments to net patient service revenue in
the year the examination is substantially complete The Hospital's Medicare cost reports have
been audited by the Medicare fiscal intermediary through September 30, 2007

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
Medicaid
Inpatient services rendered to Medicaid program beneficiaries, except for those beneficiaries in the
State's Aid to Families with Dependent Children ("AFDC") population, are reimbursed under a cost
reimbursement methodology The Hospital is reimbursed a tentative rate with final settlement
determined after submission of annual cost reports by the Hospital and audits thereof by the State
Outpatient services are reimbursed at predetermined fee schedules or percent of charges In
addition, the State also contracts with various managed care organizations to provide services to
the State's AFDC population The Hospital contracts with one or more of these managed care
organizations and provide services on a per diem rate for inpatient and fee schedules or percent of
charges for outpatients
Other Payers
The Hospital has also entered into payment agreements with certain commercial insurance
carriers, health maintenance organizations, and preferred provider organizations The basis for
payment to the Hospital under these agreements includes prospectively determined rates per
discharge, discounts from established charges, prospectively determined per diem rates, fee
schedule payments and capitated fees
Future Reimbursement
Current trends in the health care industry include mergers and other forms of affiliations among
providers, increasing shifts to managed care, an overall reduction in inpatient average length of
stay, increasingly restrictive reimbursement policies by governmental and private payors, and the
prospect of significant changes in legislation at the State and national level The Hospital cannot
assess or project the ultimate effect of these or other items that may have an impact on the future
operations of the Hospital

Insurance Liability Loss Reserves


HAIC insures the professional and general liabilities of the Hospital under a claims-made policy
with a retroactive date of October 1, 1986 There are known claims and incidents that may result in
the assertion of additional claims as well as claims from unknown incidents that may be asserted
arising from services provided to patients The Hospital has utilized independent actuaries to
estimate the ultimate costs, if any, of the settlement of such claims Accrued malpractice reserves
for professional and general liability have been discounted at 3 5% at September 30, 2012 and
3 5% at September 30, 2011 In management's opinion these reserves provide an adequate
reserve for loss The Hospital has purchased excess insurance coverage to cover claims in excess
of $1,500,000 and $4,500,000 in the aggregate An independent actuary has been utilized to
estimate the ultimate cost of claims incurred contingencies

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
Effective January 1, 2003 Griffin Hospital began retaining the first $250,000 of all loss and
allocated loss adjustment expense per accident for its workers compensation exposure Excess
coverage above $250,000 per accident was purchased Beginning January 1, 2007 the per
occurrence retention was increased to $300,000 Annual aggregate coverage was also purchased
which provides $1 million of coverage above a maximum limit of retained losses within the per
occurrence retention Beginning October 1, 2010 the per occurrence retention was increased to
$400,000 and the annual aggregate coverage was discontinued The workers' compensation
reserves have been discounted at 2 5% and 3 0% at September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively,
and in management's opinion provide an adequate reserve for loss contingencies
The Hospital also has recorded self-insurance reserves for its employee health plan, for the
deductible portion of workers' compensation indemnity losses from January 1, 1999 and prior, and
for the medical cost component of its workers' compensation losses prior to January 1, 2003,
subject to certain umbrella and stop-loss coverage limits The Hospital accrues its best estimate of
its retained liability for occurrences through each balance sheet date

$23,125,000 Griffin Hospital Issue 2008 Series C Variable Rate Demand bonds and $10,925,000
Griffin Hospital Issue 2008 Series D Variable Rate Demand Bonds (together referred to as "Series
2008 Bonds") The Series 2008 Bonds are insured by Radian Asset Guaranty Corporation
In order to provide liquidity for the Series 2008 Bonds, the Hospital has a standby letter of credit
with Wells Fargo Bank N A for $34,050,000 which expires in May 2013 As of September 30, 2012
the Hospital was in violation of the letter of credit's required debt service coverage ratio and
capitalization ratio In April 2013, Wells Fargo amended the letter of credit agreement to allow, as
of September 30, 2012, the calculation of these ratios to exclude certain non-recurring
expenditures for consulting expenses The consulting expenditures were incurred to help the
Hospital identify and implement cost reductions and put in place software and controls designed to
monitor and continue the cost containment process In connection with the amendment the
Hospital has obtained an extension of this letter of credit to May 2014 Should the Series 2008
Bonds be put back, and the standby letter of credit be called, the Hospital would be required to
repay the principal ratably over a 5-year period, beginning 180 days following the put
Under the terms of the CHEFA bonds, the Obligated Group (the Hospital, GHSC and GHDF) are
required to maintain 50 days operating cash on hand and a debt service coverage ratio of 1 2 to 1
Additionally, the Obligated Group is required to maintain a capitalization ratio of less than 65 As of
September 30, 2012 the Obligated Group failed to meet the debt service coverage and
capitalization ratios As a result of the covenant violations, the Obligated Group entered into a
Forbearance Agreement in April 2013 with Radian Asset Assurance, Inc , the bond insurer The
Forbearance Agreement waives the covenant violations as of September 30, 2012 and modifies
the debt to equity ratio calculation going forward to allow exclusion of any realized or unrealized
gains (losses) on the interest rate swap In addition, the forbearance agreement added an
additional loan covenant that beginning March 31, 2013 requires the Obligated Group to maintain
an average payment period days of less than 110 days
Under both the letter of credit agreement and the CHEFA bonds there was a requirement to
provide audited financial statements within 120 days of year end which was not met for the
September 30, 2012 year end In April 2013, both Wells Fargo Bank and Radian have provided a
waiver of this covenant violation
The CHEFA bonds are collateralized by the gross receipts of the Obligated Group and certain real
property of the Hospital

The Hospital borrowed $1,062,048 and $700,000 of the net cash value of certain officer universal
life insurance policies for working capital purposes in fiscal years 2011 and 2010 respectively The
fiscal year 2010 borrowing was paid back in fiscal year 2011 There is no repayment requirement
relative to the borrowing
Derivative Instruments
The Hospital initially issued its Series 2007 Series C and 2007 Series D bonds bearing interest at a
variable rate In May 2007, the Hospital entered into two interest rate swap agreements to manage
interest rate risk These agreements involve payment of fixed rate interest payments by the
Hospital in exchange for the receipt of variable rate interest payments from the counterparties,
based on a percentage of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) In 2008, the Hospital
refinanced the Series 2007 bonds and issued the Series 2008 Bonds These bonds also bear
interest at a variable rate The two original swap agreements continue to be utilized by the Hospital
to manage its interest rate risk At September 30, 2012, the notional amount of the derivative
financial instruments was $22,100,000 (Series 2008 Issue C nontaxable bonds) and $10,550,000
(Series 2008 Issue D taxable bonds), respectively
Upon the occurrence of certain events of default or termination events identified in the derivative
contracts, either the Hospital or the counterparty could terminate the contract in accordance with its
terms Termination would result in the payment of a termination amount by one party to
compensate the other party for its economic losses The cost of termination would depend, in
major part, on the then current interest rate levels, and if the interest rate levels were then lower
than those specified in the derivative contract, the cost of termination to the Hospital could be
significant
The fair value of these derivatives was a liability of $9,153,353 and $7,973,902 as of
September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which is included in long-term liabilities The impact
of the change in fair value was $1 ,179,451 and $1,151,797 for the years ended September 30,
2012 and 2011, respectively This change is included in the net realized and unrealized losses on
interest rate swap agreements , which also includes the net periodic settlement payments related to
the swap agreements of $1,344,099 and $1,376,109 for 2012 and 2011, respectively

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
Asset Investment Strategy
The Hospital has adopted a liability driven investment ("LDI") strategy Primary focus is to minimize
the volatility of the funding ratio by aligning the Plan's assets with its liabilities in terms of how
both respond to interest rate changes; this is then followed by an investment objective strategy to
achieve a satisfactory rate of return based on the asset allocation profile in the long term and
satisfy the plan's benefit obligations, while incurring an acceptable pension cost to the sponsor in
the long run. The objective will result in a prescribed asset mix between return seeking assets and
a LDI bond portfolio.

Endowments
The Hospital's endowment funds consist of donor restricted funds to be invested in perpetuity to
provide a permanent source of income The net assets associated with endowment funds are
classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor imposed restrictions
The Hospital has interpreted the Connecticut UPMIFA statute as requiring the preservation of the
original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds absent explicit donor
stipulations to the contrary As a result of this interpretation, the Hospital classifies as permanently
restricted net assets, (a) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the
original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations to the
permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift
instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund The remaining portion of the
donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is
classified as temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure
by the Hospital in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by UPMIFA In

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
accordance with UPMIFA, the Hospital considers the following factors in making a determination to
appropriate or accumulate endowment funds
(1) The duration and preservation of the fund
(2) The purposes of the Hospital and the donor restricted endowment fund
(3) General economic conditions

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2012 and 2011
16.

Commitments and Contingencies


The Hospital is involved in various legal matters arising in the normal course of activities Although
the ultimate outcome is not determinable at this time, management, after taking into consideration
advice of legal counsel, believes that the resolution of these pending matters will not have a
material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, upon the consolidated financial
statements

17.

Subsequent Events
On March 28, 2013 the Hospital entered into an agreement to transfer its malpractice loss portfolio
to an insurance company by making a one time payment of $7,400,000 The loss portfolio transfer
effectively transfers the liabilities and subsequent risk to a third party insurer As a result of the
transaction, cash of $3,900,000 was freed up and transferred from HAIL to the Hospital

Report of Independent Auditors on Accompanying Consolidating Information

To the Board of Trustees of


The Griffin Hospital

The report on our audits of the consolidated financial statements of The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary as
of September 30, 2012 and 2011 and for the years then ended appears on page 1 of this document
Those audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole The consolidating information is presented for purposes of additional
analysis of the consolidated financial statements rather than to present the financial position and results of
operations of the individual companies Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the financial
position and results of operations of the individual companies However, the consolidating information has
been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the consolidated financial statements
and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole

Independent Auditors Report

To the Board of Trustees of


Griffin Hospital
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Griffin Hospital and its
subsidiary (the "Hospital"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2013 and
2012, and the related consolidated statement of operations, consolidated statement of changes in net
assets and consolidated statement of cash flows for the years then ended.
Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial
statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America;
this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation
and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in
the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Hospital's
preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of the Hospital's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of
the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Griffin Hospital and its subsidiary at September 30, 2013 and 2012 and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Hospital and its wholly owned
subsidiary, FPP All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in
consolidation
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting
Resources are reported for accounting purposes in separate classes of net assets based on the
existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions In the accompanying financial statements, net
assets have been reported as follows
Permanently Restricted
Net assets subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that they be maintained by the Hospital in
perpetuity are classified as permanently restricted Generally, the donors of these assets permit
the Hospital to use all or part of the investment return on these assets for operating purposes
Temporarily Restricted
Net assets whose use by the Hospital is subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that can be
fulfilled upon incurrence of expenses by the Hospital pursuant to those stipulations or that expire by
the passage of time are classified as temporarily restricted
Unrestricted
Net assets that are not subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations are classified as unrestricted
Unrestricted net assets may be designated for specific purposes by action of the Board of Trustees
or may otherwise be limited by contractual agreements with outside parties
Revenues from sources other than contributions are reported in unrestricted net assets
Contributions are reported as increases in the applicable category of net assets, consistent with
donor designation Expenses are reported as decreases in unrestricted net assets Gains and
losses on investments and other assets or liabilities are reported as increases or decreases in
unrestricted net assets, unless their use is restricted by explicit donor stipulations or by law
Expirations of temporary restrictions on net assets, that is, the donor-imposed stipulated purpose
has been accomplished and/or stipulated time period has elapsed, are reported as reclassifications
between the applicable classes of net assets

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 and 2012
Grant revenues and expenses relating to Hospital operations are included within operating
revenues and expenses Grant revenues and expenses relating to research are included within
nonoperating gains and losses
Contributions, including unconditional promises to give, are recognized as increases in net assets
at the date the gift or promise is received Contributions of assets other than cash are recorded at
their estimated fair value Contributions to be received after one year are discounted at a rate
commensurate with the risks involved Amortization of the discount is recorded as additional
contribution revenue in accordance with the donor-imposed stipulations, if any, on the
contributions
Contributions restricted for the acquisition of land, buildings and equipment are reported as
temporarily restricted support These contributions are reclassified to unrestricted net assets when
the capital asset is acquired or placed in service
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period Actual results could differ from those estimates The
Hospital's and FPP's significant estimates include the allowances for patient accounts receivable
contractual allowances and estimated final settlements due to or from third party payors,
professional and general liability loss reserves and pension assumptions
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include investments in highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased, excluding amounts whose use is limited by the Board of Trustees
or other restrictive arrangements
The majority of the Hospital ' s banking activity, including cash and cash equivalents , is maintained
with a regional bank and from time to time exceeds federal insurance limits It is the Hospital's
policy to monitor the bank ' s financial strength on an ongoing basis
Beneficial Interest in Trusts
The fair value of contributions received from perpetual trust assets held by third parties is
measured at the Hospital's proportionate share of the fair value of the trust's assets at the time the
Hospital is notified of the trust's existence and periodically adjusted for changes in value
Distributions received by the Hospital may be restricted by the donor These assets are classified
as permanently restricted net assets
Inventories
Inventories, which are included in other current assets, are stated at the lower of cost, using the
first-in, first-out method, or market Inventories are included in other current assets

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 and 2012
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value standards define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value The
framework provides a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure
fair value The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs
(Level 3 measurements) The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under this principle are as
follows
Level 1

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or
liabilities in active markets that the Hospital and FPP have the ability to access

Level 2

Inputs to the valuation methodology include

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets,

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets,

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability,

Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data
by correlation or other means

If the asset or liability has a specified term, the Level 2 input must be observable for
substantially the full term of the asset or liability
Level 3

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value
measurement

The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the
lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement Valuation techniques
used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs
The fair value of the Hospital's and FPP's investments is based on quoted market values
The fair value of the Hospital's interest rate swaps liability is based on observable inputs other than
quoted prices for similar instruments
Investments and Investment Income
Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values and all investments in debt
securities are measured at fair value at the balance sheet date Investments of donor restricted
funds are classified as long-term investments Investment income or loss (including realized and
unrealized gains and losses on investments, interest and dividends) is included in the deficiency of
revenues over expenses unless the income or loss is restricted by donor or law
Assets Limited as to Use
Assets limited as to use include assets set aside by the Board of Trustees in a depreciation fund for
future capital improvements, and assets held by a trustee under an indenture agreement

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 and 2012
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost or in the case of donated property at the fair
value at the date of gift Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each class of
depreciable asset and is computed using the straight-line method with one-half year of depreciation
expense recorded in the year of acquisition Uniform useful lives assigned to assets are based
upon the American Hospital Association estimated useful lives of depreciable hospital assets
guidelines and range from 5 to 50 years Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred, and betterments and major renewals are capitalized Upon sale or disposal of property,
plant or equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective
accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations Equipment under capital leases is
amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life
of the equipment Such amortization is included in depreciation and amortization expense
Interest cost incurred on borrowed funds during the construction period of capital assets is
capitalized as a component of the cost of acquiring those assets
The Hospital performed a review of certain building improvement and construction assets during
the course of last year The review determined that certain assets were being depreciated over a
term that was shorter than the assets' expected life As such the useful lives were adjusted and
the corresponding depreciation was prospectively adjusted as appropriate
Gifts of long-lived assets such as land, buildings, or equipment are reported as unrestricted
support, and are excluded from the deficiency of revenues over expenses, unless explicit donor
stipulations specify how the donated assets must be used Gifts of long-lived assets with explicit
restrictions that specify how the assets are to be used and gifts of cash or other assets that must
be used to acquire long-lived assets are reported as restricted support Absent explicit donor
stipulations about how long-lived assets must be maintained, expirations of donor restrictions are
reported when the donated or acquired long-lived assets are placed in service
Asset Retirement Obligation
The Hospital accrues for asset retirement obligations, primarily asbestos related removal costs, in
the period in which they are incurred if sufficient information is available to reasonably estimate the
obligation Over time, the liability is accreted to its settlement value Upon settlement of the
liability, the Hospital will recognize a gain or loss for any difference between the settlement amount
and the liability recorded
Interest in Net Assets of Affiliate
Interest in net assets of affiliate represents the Hospital's interest in the net assets of GHDF
Cost of Borrowing
Issuance costs related to the Hospital's bond issuance are being amortized using the effective
interest method over the life of the debt Amortization expense, which is included in interest
expense, was $79,839 and $66,926 for 2013 and 2012, respectively
The discount from face value at which debt has been issued is reflected as a reduction of the
carrying value of such debt The premium from face value at which debt has been issued is
reflected as an addition to the carrying value of such debt Discounts and premiums are amortized
or accreted over the life of the debt, using the effective interest method

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 and 2012
Professional and General Liability Loss Reserves
The liability for claims is determined by management based on data processed by independent
loss adjusters The liability for adverse claims development and the liability for claims incurred but
not reported are determined by management based on actuarial studies of related data prepared
by independent actuaries
Due to the nature of the underlying insurance risks and the general uncertainty surrounding
medical malpractice claims settlement, the liability for losses is an estimate and could vary
significantly from the amount ultimately paid However, the liability for losses reflects the best
estimate of ultimate loss based on historical experience and actuarial projections
Excess of Revenues Over Expenses
The statement of operations includes an excess of revenues over expenses Changes in
unrestricted net assets which are excluded from the excess of revenues over expenses, consistent
with industry practice, include changes in interests in net assets of affiliate, transfers of assets to
and from affiliates for other than goods and services, and pension and other post-retirement related
changes other than net periodic benefit cost
New Accounting Pronouncement
The Corporation adopted Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No 2011-7, which requires health
care entities to change the presentation of their statement of operations by reclassifying the
provision for bad debts associated with patient service revenue from an operating expense to a
deduction from patient service revenue (net of contractual allowances and discounts) Additionally
those health care entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about their policies for
recognizing revenue, assessing bad debts, and disclosures of patient service revenue (net of
contractual allowances and discounts)
Net Patient Service Revenue
The Hospital and FPP have agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments at
amounts different from established rates Payment arrangements include prospectively determined
rates per discharge, reimbursed costs, discounted charges, per diem payments, fee schedule
payments and capitated fees Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net
realizable amounts from patients, third-party payors, and others for services rendered, including
estimated retroactive adjustments under reimbursement agreements with third-party payors due to
future audits, reviews and investigations
Retroactive adjustments are accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related services are
rendered and adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known or as years are no longer
subject to such audits, reviews or investigations Contracts, loans and regulations governing the
Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation As a result, there is at
least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates may change by a material amount in the
future During 2013 and 2012, the Hospital recorded several adjustments for amounts recognized
related to prior years, including adjustments to prior year estimates The net effect of such
adjustments was a decrease in net patient service revenue of approximately $196,000 and a
decrease of approximately $554,000 in fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively

September 30, 2013 and 2012
Free Care
The Hospital provides care to patients who meet certain criteria under its free care policy without
charge or at amounts less than its established and contractual rates Because the Hospital does
not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as free care, they are not reported as net
patient service revenue Free care of approximately $4,850,000 and $6,785,000 measured at the
Hospital's respective established rates was provided in fiscal year 2013 and 2012, respectively
Income Taxes
The Hospital and FPP are not-for-profit organizations, exempt from federal income taxes under
Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code

The Hospital and FPP have agreements with the Federal Medicare Program ("Medicare"), the
State of Connecticut ("State") Medicaid Program ("Medicaid"), and certain indemnity and managed
care programs that determine payments for services rendered to patients covered by these
programs
A summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors is as follows
Medicare
The Hospital is reimbursed for services rendered to nonpsychiatric inpatients under the prospective
payment system ("PPS"), under which payments are based on standard national and regional
amounts depending on patient diagnosis (Diagnosis Related Group or "DRG") and without regard
to the Hospital's actual costs PPS permits additional payments, within specified limitations, to be
made for atypical cases (outliers) and graduate medical education Inpatient psychiatric services
are also paid under a prospective per diem payment system established by Medicare
The Hospital is reimbursed for most outpatient services under a prospective payment methodology
based on ambulatory payment classifications ("APC") which are paid on standard national and
regional amounts for procedures rendered to the patients and without regard to the Hospital's
actual costs The remaining outpatient services (e g , routine clinical lab, physical therapy) are
reimbursed on a fee schedule

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 and 2012
The Hospital is reimbursed for cost reimbursable items at a tentative rate with final settlement after
submission of annual cost reports and audits thereof by the Medicare fiscal intermediary The
estimated amounts due to or from the program are reviewed and adjusted annually based on the
status of such audits and any subsequent appeals Differences between final settlements and
amounts accrued in previous years are reported as adjustments to net patient service revenue in
the year the examination is substantially complete The Hospital's Medicare cost reports have
been audited by the Medicare fiscal intermediary through September 30, 2009
Medicaid
Inpatient services rendered to Medicaid program beneficiaries, except for those beneficiaries in the
State's Aid to Families with Dependent Children ("AFDC") population, are reimbursed under a cost
reimbursement methodology The Hospital is reimbursed a tentative rate with final settlement
determined after submission of annual cost reports by the Hospital and audits thereof by the State
Outpatient services are reimbursed at predetermined fee schedules or percent of charges In
addition, the State also contracts with various managed care organizations to provide services to
the State's AFDC population The Hospital contracts with one or more of these managed care
organizations and provide services on a per diem rate for inpatient and fee schedules or percent of
charges for outpatients
Other Payers
The Hospital has also entered into payment agreements with certain commercial insurance
carriers, health maintenance organizations, and preferred provider organizations The basis for
payment to the Hospital under these agreements includes prospectively determined rates per
discharge, discounts from established charges, prospectively determined per diem rates, fee
schedule payments and capitated fees
Future Reimbursement
Current trends in the health care industry include mergers and other forms of affiliations among
providers, increasing shifts to managed care, an overall reduction in inpatient average length of
stay, increasingly restrictive reimbursement policies by governmental and private payors, and the
prospect of significant changes in legislation at the State and national level The Hospital cannot
assess or project the ultimate effect of these or other items that may have an impact on the future
operations of the Hospital

Insurance Liability Loss Reserves


HAIL insures the professional and general liabilities of the Hospital under a claims-made policy
with a retroactive date of October 1, 1986 There are known claims and incidents that may result in
the assertion of additional claims as well as claims from unknown incidents that may be asserted
arising from services provided to patients The Hospital has utilized independent actuaries to
estimate the ultimate costs, if any, of the settlement of such claims Accrued malpractice reserves
for professional and general liability have been discounted at 3 5% at September 30, 2013 and
3 5% at September 30, 2012 In management's opinion these reserves provide an adequate
reserve for loss The Hospital has purchased excess insurance coverage to cover claims in excess
of $1,500,000 and $4,500,000 in the aggregate An independent actuary has been utilized to
estimate the ultimate cost of claims incurred contingencies
Effective January 1, 2003 Griffin Hospital began retaining the first $250,000 of all loss and
allocated loss adjustment expense per accident for its workers compensation exposure Excess
coverage above $250,000 per accident was purchased Beginning January 1, 2007 the per
occurrence retention was increased to $300,000 Annual aggregate coverage was also purchased
which provides $1 million of coverage above a maximum limit of retained losses within the per
occurrence retention Beginning October 1, 2010 the per occurrence retention was increased to
$400,000 and the annual aggregate coverage was discontinued The workers' compensation
reserves have been discounted at 2 5% and 2 5% at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively,
and in management's opinion provide an adequate reserve for loss contingencies
The Hospital also has recorded self-insurance reserves for its employee health plan, for the
deductible portion of workers' compensation indemnity losses from January 1, 1999 and prior, and
for the medical cost component of its workers' compensation losses prior to January 1, 2003,
subject to certain umbrella and stop-loss coverage limits The Hospital accrues its best estimate of
its retained liability for occurrences through each balance sheet date
Effective March 28, 2013 the Hospital entered into a novation agreement with American Insurance
Group Inc , where it legally transfed all exposure relating to primary layer professional liability and
physicians professional liability policies issued to the Hospital in the years 2006/07, 2007/08,
2009/10, 2010/11 and 2011/12, by making a onetime premium payment of $7,400,000 The loss
portfolio transfer effectively transfers the liabilities and subsequent adverse claim development risk
to a third party insurer As a result of the transaction, cash of $3,900,000 became unrestricted and
was transferred from HAIL to the Hospital In addition, a loss of $818,214 was realized on the
transaction The loss was the result of the premium payment exceeding the amount of loss
reserves previously recorded at HAIL The loss is included in the fiscal year 2013 operating
expenses of the Hospital

with Wells Fargo Bank N A for $34,050,000 which expires in May 2015 As of September 30,
2012 the Hospital was in violation of the letter of credit's required debt service coverage ratio and
capitalization ratio In April 2013, Wells Fargo amended the letter of credit agreement to allow, as
of September 30, 2012, the calculation of these ratios to exclude certain nonrecurring expenditures
for consulting expenses The consulting expenditures were incurred to help the Hospital identify
and implement cost reductions and put in place software and controls designed to monitor and
continue the cost containment process Should the Series 2008 Bonds be put back, and the
standby letter of credit be called, the Hospital would be required to repay the principal ratably over
a 5-year period, beginning 180 days following the put

Under the terms of the CHEFA bonds, the Obligated Group (the Hospital, GHSC and GHDF) are
required to maintain 50 days operating cash on hand and a debt service coverage ratio of 1 2 to 1
Additionally, the Obligated Group is required to maintain a capitalization ratio of less than 65 As
of September 30, 2012 the Obligated Group failed to meet the debt service coverage and
capitalization ratios As a result of the covenant violations, the Obligated Group entered into a
Forbearance Agreement in April 2013 with Radian Asset Assurance, Inc , the bond insurer The
Forbearance Agreement waived the covenant violations as of September 30, 2012 and modified
the debt to equity ratio calculation going forward to allow exclusion of any realized or unrealized
gain or loss on the interest rate swap In addition, the forbearance agreement added an additional
loan covenant that beginning March 31, 2013 requires the Obligated Group to maintain an average
payment period days of less than 110 days

Derivative Instruments
The Hospital initially issued its Series 2007 Series C and 2007 Series D bonds bearing interest at a
variable rate In May 2007, the Hospital entered into two interest rate swap agreements to manage
interest rate risk These agreements involve payment of fixed rate interest payments by the
Hospital in exchange for the receipt of variable rate interest payments from the counterparties,
based on a percentage of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) In 2008, the Hospital
refinanced the Series 2007 bonds and issued the Series 2008 Bonds These bonds also bear
interest at a variable rate The two original swap agreements continue to be utilized by the Hospital
to manage its interest rate risk At September 30, 2013, the notional amount of the derivative
financial instruments was $21,575,000 (Series 2008 Issue C nontaxable bonds) and $10,350,000
(Series 2008 Issue D taxable bonds), respectively
Upon the occurrence of certain events of default or termination events identified in the derivative
contracts, either the Hospital or the counterparty could terminate the contract in accordance with its
terms Termination would result in the payment of a termination amount by one party to
compensate the other party for its economic losses The cost of termination would depend, in
major part, on the then current interest rate levels, and if the interest rate levels were then lower
than those specified in the derivative contract, the cost of termination to the Hospital could be
significant
The fair value of these derivatives was a liability of $6,022,007 and $9,153,353 as of
September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which is included in long-term liabilities The impact
of the change in fair value was income of $3,131,346 and expense of $1,179,451 for the years
ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively This change is included in the net realized and
unrealized losses on interest rate swap agreements , which also includes the net periodic
settlement payments related to the swap agreements of $1,327,993 and $1,344,099 for 2013 and

Asset Investment Strategy


The Hospital has adopted a liability driven investment ("LDI") strategy Primary focus is to minimize
the volatility of the funding ratio by aligning the Plan's assets with its liabilities in terms of how both
respond to interest rate changes, this is then followed by an investment objective strategy to
achieve a satisfactory rate of return based on the asset allocation profile in the long term and
satisfy the plan's benefit obligations, while incurring an acceptable pension cost to the sponsor in
the long run The objective will result in a prescribed asset mix between return seeking assets and
a LDI bond portfolio
13.

Concentrations of Credit Risk


The Hospital grants credit without collateral to its patients, most of who are local residents and are
insured under third-party payor agreements The mix in patient accounts receivable as of
September 30, 2013 and 2012 before allowances for doubtful accounts, consisted of the following

Endowments
The Hospital's endowment funds consist of donor restricted funds to be invested in perpetuity to
provide a permanent source of income The net assets associated with endowment funds are
classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor imposed restrictions
The Hospital has interpreted the Connecticut UPMIFA statute as requiring the preservation of the
original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds absent explicit donor
stipulations to the contrary As a result of this interpretation, the Hospital classifies as permanently
restricted net assets, (a) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the
original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations to the
permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift
instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund The remaining portion of the
donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is
classified as temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure
by the Hospital in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by UPMIFA In
accordance with UPMIFA, the Hospital considers the following factors in making a determination to
appropriate or accumulate endowment funds
(1) The duration and preservation of the fund
(2) The purposes of the Hospital and the donor restricted endowment fund
(3) General economic conditions
(4) The possible effect of inflation and deflation
(5) The expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments
(6) Other resources of the Hospital
(7) The investment policies of the Hospital

permanent nature of each endowment fund, while providing a predictable, stable, and constant
stream of earnings Consistent with that objective, the primary investment goal is to earn annual
interest and dividends

Commitments and Contingencies


The Hospital is involved in various legal matters arising in the normal course of activities Although
the ultimate outcome is not determinable at this time, management, after taking into consideration
advice of legal counsel, believes that the resolution of these pending matters will not have a
material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, upon the consolidated financial
statements

The Griffin Hospital:
The report on our audits of the consolidated financial statements of The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary as
of September 30, 2013 and 2012 and for the years then ended appears on page 1 of this document. Those
audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements
taken as a whole. The consolidating information is presented for purposes of additional analysis of the
consolidated financial statements rather than to present the financial position and results of operations of
the individual companies. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the financial position and results
of operations of the individual companies. However, the consolidating information has been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion,
is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated financial statements taken as a
whole.

Independent Auditor's Report
To the Board of Trustees of
Griffin Hospital
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Griffin Hospital and its
subsidiary (the "Hospital"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2014 and
2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of changes in net
assets and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years then ended.
Management 's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial
statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America;
this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation
and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in
the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Hospital's
preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of the Hospital's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of
the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Griffin Hospital and its subsidiary at September 30, 2014 and 2013 and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2014 and 2013
Organization
The Griffin Hospital (the "Hospital") is a licensed 160-bed acute care hospital located in Derby,
Connecticut and is part of an affiliated group which consists of its parent corporation, Griffin Health
Services Corporation ("GHSC"), including Griffin Pharmacy and Gifts ("GP&G"), and certain other
affiliates, primarily the Griffin Hospital Development Fund ("GHDF"), the fund-raising organization
for GHSC and the other tax-exempt subsidiaries, G H Ventures, Inc ("GHV"), a for profit
organization currently managing medical office buildings, Planetree Inc ("Planetree"), a
not-for-profit entity assisting hospitals and other health care facilities in the development and
implementation of a patient centered model of care, the Griffin Faculty Practice Plan, Inc ("FPP"), a
not-for-profit entity incorporated for the purpose of providing medical services and to charge for
services performed by physicians as supervisors of interns, and Healthcare Alliance Insurance
Company, Ltd ("HAIL'), a for profit off-shore captive insurance company
During the preparation of the September 30, 2014 financial statements, the Hospital identified
two prior period errors in accounting The first is for a capital equipment lease the Hospital entered
into in Fiscal 2010 where the lease obligation amount capitalized was not correctly amortized The
second is the purchase of a perpetual software license entered into in Fiscal 2012 where the
amounts capitalized were not correct The Company has corrected the errors by charging
$123,744 to depreciation expense and $1,104,486 to interest expense in the year ended
September 30, 2014 financial statements The Hospital also increased its capital lease obligation
and accrued liabilities by $1,489,468 and its property, plant and equipment balance by $261,238
Correction of the errors had the effect of decreasing net assets as of October 1, 2013 by
$1,228,230 The Hospital has evaluated the errors and does not believe the amounts are material
to any of the periods impacted

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Hospital and its wholly owned
subsidiary, FPP All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in
consolidation
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting
Resources are reported for accounting purposes in separate classes of net assets based on the
existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions In the accompanying financial statements, net
assets have been reported as follows
Permanently Restricted
Net assets subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that they be maintained by the Hospital in
perpetuity are classified as permanently restricted Generally, the donors of these assets permit
the Hospital to use all or part of the investment return on these assets for operating purposes
Temporarily Restricted
Net assets whose use by the Hospital is subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that can be
fulfilled upon incurrence of expenses by the Hospital pursuant to those stipulations or that expire by
the passage of time are classified as temporarily restricted

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2014 and 2013
Unrestricted
Net assets that are not subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations are classified as unrestricted
Unrestricted net assets may be designated for specific purposes by action of the Board of Trustees
or may otherwise be limited by contractual agreements with outside parties
Revenues from sources other than contributions are reported in unrestricted net assets
Contributions are reported as increases in the applicable category of net assets, consistent with
donor designation Expenses are reported as decreases in unrestricted net assets Gains and
losses on investments and other assets or liabilities are reported as increases or decreases in
unrestricted net assets, unless their use is restricted by explicit donor stipulations or by law
Expirations of temporary restrictions on net assets, that is, the donor-imposed stipulated purpose
has been accomplished and/or stipulated time period has elapsed, are reported as reclassifications
between the applicable classes of net assets
Grant revenues and expenses relating to Hospital operations are included within operating
revenues and expenses Grant revenues and expenses relating to research are included within
nonoperating gains and losses
Contributions, including unconditional promises to give, are recognized as increases in net assets
at the date the gift or promise is received Contributions of assets other than cash are recorded at
their estimated fair value Contributions to be received after one year are discounted at a rate
commensurate with the risks involved Amortization of the discount is recorded as additional
contribution revenue in accordance with the donor-imposed stipulations, if any, on the
contributions
Contributions restricted for the acquisition of land, buildings and equipment are reported as
temporarily restricted support These contributions are reclassified to unrestricted net assets when
the capital asset is acquired or placed in service
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period Actual results could differ from those estimates The
Hospital's and FPP's significant estimates include the allowances for patient accounts receivable
contractual allowances and estimated final settlements due to or from third party payors,
professional and general liability loss reserves and pension assumptions
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include investments in highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased, excluding amounts whose use is limited by the Board of Trustees
or other restrictive arrangements
The majority of the Hospital's banking activity, including cash and cash equivalents, is maintained
with a regional bank and from time to time exceeds federal insurance limits It is the Hospital's
policy to monitor the bank's financial strength on an ongoing basis

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2014 and 2013
Beneficial Interest in Trusts
The fair value of contributions received from perpetual trust assets held by third parties is
measured at the Hospital's proportionate share of the fair value of the trust's assets at the time the
Hospital is notified of the trust's existence and periodically adjusted for changes in value
Distributions received by the Hospital may be restricted by the donor These assets are classified
as permanently restricted net assets
Inventories
Inventories, which are included in other current assets, are stated at the lower of cost, using the
first-in, first-out method, or market Inventories are included in other current assets
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value standards define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value The
framework provides a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure
fair value The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs
(Level 3 measurements) The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under this principle are as
follows
Level 1

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or
liabilities in active markets that the Hospital and FPP have the ability to access

Level 2

Inputs to the valuation methodology include

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets,

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets,

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability,

Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data
by correlation or other means

If the asset or liability has a specified term, the Level 2 input must be observable for
substantially the full term of the asset or liability
Level 3

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value
measurement

The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the
lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement Valuation techniques
used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs
The fair value of the Hospital's and FPP's investments is based on quoted market values
The fair value of the Hospital's interest rate swaps liability is based on observable inputs other than
quoted prices for similar instruments

September 30, 2014 and 2013
Investments and Investment Income
Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values and all investments in debt
securities are measured at fair value at the balance sheet date Investments of donor restricted
funds are classified as long-term investments Investment income or loss (including realized and
unrealized gains and losses on investments, interest and dividends) is included in the excess of
revenues over expenses unless the income or loss is restricted by donor or law
Assets Limited as to Use
Assets limited as to use include assets set aside by the Board of Trustees in a depreciation fund for
future capital improvements, postretirement benefit obligations and assets held by a trustee under
an indenture agreement
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost or in the case of donated property at the fair
value at the date of gift Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each class of
depreciable asset and is computed using the straight-line method with one-half year of depreciation
expense recorded in the year of acquisition Uniform useful lives assigned to assets are based
upon the American Hospital Association estimated useful lives of depreciable hospital assets
guidelines and range from 3 to 40 years Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred, and betterments and major renewals are capitalized Upon sale or disposal of property,
plant or equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective
accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations Equipment under capital leases is
amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life
of the equipment Such amortization is included in depreciation and amortization expense
Interest cost incurred on borrowed funds during the construction period of capital assets is
capitalized as a component of the cost of acquiring those assets
Gifts of long-lived assets such as land, buildings, or equipment are reported as unrestricted
support, and are excluded from the deficiency of revenues over expenses, unless explicit donor
stipulations specify how the donated assets must be used Gifts of long-lived assets with explicit
restrictions that specify how the assets are to be used and gifts of cash or other assets that must
be used to acquire long-lived assets are reported as restricted support Absent explicit donor
stipulations about how long-lived assets must be maintained, expirations of donor restrictions are
reported when the donated or acquired long-lived assets are placed in service
Asset Retirement Obligation
The Hospital accrues for asset retirement obligations, primarily asbestos related removal costs, in
the period in which they are incurred if sufficient information is available to reasonably estimate the
obligation Over time, the liability is accreted to its settlement value Upon settlement of the
liability, the Hospital will recognize a gain or loss for any difference between the settlement amount
and the liability recorded
Interest in Net Assets of Affiliate
Interest in net assets of affiliate represents the Hospital's interest in the net assets of GHDF
Cost of Borrowing
Issuance costs and premiums related to the Hospital's bond issuance are being amortized/accreted
using the effective interest method over the life of the debt Net amortization expense, which is
included in interest expense, was $123,064 and $144,540 for 2014 and 2013, respectively

The discount from face value at which debt has been issued is reflected as a reduction of the
carrying value of such debt The premium from face value at which debt has been issued is
reflected as an addition to the carrying value of such debt Discounts and premiums are amortized
or accreted over the life of the debt, using the effective interest method
Professional and General Liability Loss Reserves
The liability for claims is determined by management based on data processed by independent
loss adjusters The liability for adverse claims development and the liability for claims incurred but
not reported are determined by management based on actuarial studies of related data prepared
by independent actuaries
Due to the nature of the underlying insurance risks and the general uncertainty surrounding
medical malpractice claims settlement, the liability for losses is an estimate and could vary
significantly from the amount ultimately paid However, the liability for losses reflects the best
estimate of ultimate loss based on historical experience and actuarial projections
Excess of Revenues Over Expenses
The statements of operations includes an excess of revenues over expenses Changes in
unrestricted net assets which are excluded from the excess of revenues over expenses, consistent
with industry practice, include changes in interests in net assets of affiliate, transfers of assets to
and from affiliates for other than goods and services, and pension and other post-retirement related
changes other than net periodic benefit cost
New Accounting Pronouncement
The Corporation adopted Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No 2011-7, which requires health
care entities to change the presentation of their statement of operations by reclassifying the
provision for bad debts associated with patient service revenue from an operating expense to a
deduction from patient service revenue (net of contractual allowances and discounts) Additionally
those health care entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about their policies for
recognizing revenue, assessing bad debts, and disclosures of patient service revenue (net of
contractual allowances and discounts)
Net Patient Service Revenue
The Hospital and FPP have agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments at
amounts different from established rates Payment arrangements include prospectively determined
rates per discharge, reimbursed costs, discounted charges, per diem payments, fee schedule
payments and capitated fees Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net
realizable amounts from patients, third-party payors, and others for services rendered, including
estimated retroactive adjustments under reimbursement agreements with third-party payors due to
future audits, reviews and investigations
Retroactive adjustments are accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related services are
rendered and adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known or as years are no longer
subject to such audits, reviews or investigations Contracts, loans and regulations governing the
Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation As a result, there is at
least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates may change by a material amount in the
future During 2014 and 2013, the Hospital recorded several adjustments for amounts recognized
related to prior years, including adjustments to prior year estimates The net effect of such
adjustments was a decrease in net patient service revenue of approximately $1,034,000 and a
decrease of approximately $196,000 in fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively

Free Care
The Hospital provides care to patients who meet certain criteria under its free care policy without
charge or at amounts less than its established and contractual rates Because the Hospital does
not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as free care, they are not reported as net
patient service revenue Free care of approximately $3,785,000 and $4,850,000 measured at the
Hospital's respective established rates was provided in fiscal year 2014 and 2013, respectively
Income Taxes
The Hospital and FPP are not-for-profit organizations, exempt from federal income taxes under
Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code

The Hospital and FPP have agreements with the Federal Medicare Program ("Medicare"), the
State of Connecticut ("State") Medicaid Program ("Medicaid"), and certain indemnity and managed
care programs that determine payments for services rendered to patients covered by these
programs
A summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors is as follows
Medicare
The Hospital is reimbursed for services rendered to nonpsychiatric inpatients under the prospective
payment system ("PPS"), under which payments are based on standard national and regional
amounts depending on patient diagnosis (Diagnosis Related Group or "DRG") and without regard
to the Hospital's actual costs PPS permits additional payments, within specified limitations, to be
made for atypical cases (outliers) and graduate medical education Inpatient psychiatric services
are also paid under a prospective per diem payment system established by Medicare

12

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2014 and 2013
The Hospital is reimbursed for most outpatient services under a prospective payment methodology
based on ambulatory payment classifications ("APC") which are paid on standard national and
regional amounts for procedures rendered to the patients and without regard to the Hospital's
actual costs The remaining outpatient services (e g , routine clinical lab, physical therapy) are
reimbursed on a fee schedule
The Hospital is reimbursed for cost reimbursable items at a tentative rate with final settlement after
submission of annual cost reports and audits thereof by the Medicare fiscal intermediary The
estimated amounts due to or from the program are reviewed and adjusted annually based on the
status of such audits and any subsequent appeals Differences between final settlements and
amounts accrued in previous years are reported as adjustments to net patient service revenue in
the year the examination is substantially complete The Hospital's Medicare cost reports have
been audited by the Medicare fiscal intermediary through September 30, 2011
Medicaid
Inpatient services rendered to Medicaid program beneficiaries, except for those beneficiaries in the
State's Aid to Families with Dependent Children ("AFDC") population, are reimbursed under a cost
reimbursement methodology The Hospital is reimbursed a tentative rate with final settlement
determined after submission of annual cost reports by the Hospital and audits thereof by the State
Outpatient services are reimbursed at predetermined fee schedules or percent of charges
Other Payers
The Hospital has also entered into payment agreements with certain commercial insurance
carriers, health maintenance organizations, and preferred provider organizations The basis for
payment to the Hospital under these agreements includes prospectively determined rates per
discharge, discounts from established charges, prospectively determined per diem rates, fee
schedule payments and capitated fees
Future Reimbursement
Current trends in the health care industry include mergers and other forms of affiliations among
providers, increasing shifts to managed care, an overall reduction in inpatient average length of
stay, increasingly restrictive reimbursement policies by governmental and private payors, and the
prospect of significant changes in legislation at the State and national level The Hospital cannot
assess or project the ultimate effect of these or other items that may have an impact on the future
operations of the Hospital

Insurance Liability Loss Reserves


HAIC insures the professional and general liabilities of the Hospital under a claims-made policy
with a retroactive date of October 1, 1986 There are known claims and incidents that may result in
the assertion of additional claims as well as claims from unknown incidents that may be asserted
arising from services provided to patients The Hospital has utilized independent actuaries to
estimate the ultimate costs, if any, of the settlement of such claims Accrued malpractice reserves
for professional and general liability have been discounted at 3 25% at September 30, 2014 and
3 25% at September 30, 2013 In management's opinion these reserves provide an adequate
reserve for loss The Hospital has purchased excess insurance coverage to cover claims in excess
of $1,500,000 and $4,500,000 in the aggregate An independent actuary has been utilized to
estimate the ultimate cost of claims incurred contingencies
Effective January 1, 2003 Griffin Hospital began retaining the first $250,000 of all loss and
allocated loss adjustment expense per accident for its workers compensation exposure Excess
coverage above $250,000 per accident was purchased Beginning January 1, 2007 the per
occurrence retention was increased to $300,000 Annual aggregate coverage was also purchased
which provides $1 million of coverage above a maximum limit of retained losses within the per
occurrence retention Beginning October 1, 2010 the per occurrence retention was increased to
$400,000 and the annual aggregate coverage was discontinued The workers' compensation
reserves have been discounted at 2 5% and 2 5% at September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively,
and in management's opinion provide an adequate reserve for loss contingencies

The Griffin Hospital and Subsidiary


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2014 and 2013
The Hospital also has recorded self-insurance reserves for its employee health plan, for the
deductible portion of workers' compensation indemnity losses from January 1, 1999 and prior, and
for the medical cost component of its workers' compensation losses prior to January 1, 2003,
subject to certain umbrella and stop-loss coverage limits The Hospital accrues its best estimate of
its retained liability for occurrences through each balance sheet date
Effective March 28, 2013 the Hospital entered into a novation agreement with American Insurance
Group Inc , where it legally transferred all exposure relating to primary layer professional liability
and physicians professional liability policies issued to the Hospital in the years 2006/07, 2007/08,
2009/10, 2010/11 and 2011/12, by making a onetime premium payment of $7,400,000 The loss
portfolio transfer effectively transfers the liabilities and subsequent adverse claim development risk
to a third party insurer As a result of the transaction, cash of $3,900,000 became unrestricted and
was transferred from HAIC to the Hospital In addition, a loss of $818,214 was realized on the
transaction The loss was the result of the premium payment exceeding the amount of loss
reserves previously recorded at HAIC The loss is included in the fiscal year 2013 operating
expenses of the Hospital

Derivative Instruments
The Hospital initially issued its Series 2007 Series C and 2007 Series D bonds bearing interest at a
variable rate In May 2007, the Hospital entered into two interest rate swap agreements to manage
interest rate risk These agreements involve payment of fixed rate interest payments by the
Hospital in exchange for the receipt of variable rate interest payments from the counterparties,
based on a percentage of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) In 2008, the Hospital
refinanced the Series 2007 bonds and issued the Series 2008 Bonds These bonds also bear
interest at a variable rate The two original swap agreements continue to be utilized by the Hospital
to manage its interest rate risk At September 30, 2014, the notional amount of the derivative
financial instruments was $23,125,000 (Series 2008 Issue C nontaxable bonds) and $10,925,000
(Series 2008 Issue D taxable bonds), respectively
Upon the occurrence of certain events of default or termination events identified in the derivative
contracts, either the Hospital or the counterparty could terminate the contract in accordance with its
terms Termination would result in the payment of a termination amount by one party to
compensate the other party for its economic losses The cost of termination would depend, in
major part, on the then current interest rate levels, and if the interest rate levels were then lower
than those specified in the derivative contract, the cost of termination to the Hospital could be
significant
The fair value of these derivatives was a liability of $6,436,499 and $6,022,007 as of
September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which is included in long-term liabilities The impact
of the change in fair value was a loss of $414,492 and a gain of $3,131,346 for the years ended
September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively This change is included in the net realized and
unrealized losses on interest rate swap agreements, which also includes the net periodic
settlement payments related to the swap agreements of $1,308,883 and $1,327,993 for 2014 and
2013, respectively

Asset Investment Strategy


The Hospital has adopted a liability driven investment ("LDI") strategy Primary focus is to minimize
the volatility of the funding ratio by aligning the Plan's assets with its liabilities in terms of how both
respond to interest rate changes, this is then followed by an investment objective strategy to
achieve a satisfactory rate of return based on the asset allocation profile in the long term and
satisfy the plan's benefit obligations, while incurring an acceptable pension cost to the sponsor in
the long run The objective will result in a prescribed asset mix between return seeking assets and
a LDI bond portfolio

Endowments
The Hospital's endowment funds consist of donor restricted funds to be invested in perpetuity to
provide a permanent source of income The net assets associated with endowment funds are
classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor imposed restrictions
The Hospital has interpreted the Connecticut UPMIFA statute as requiring the preservation of the
original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds absent explicit donor
stipulations to the contrary As a result of this interpretation, the Hospital classifies as permanently
restricted net assets, (a) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the
original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations to the
permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift
instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund The remaining portion of the
donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is
classified as temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure
by the Hospital in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by UPMIFA In
accordance with UPMIFA, the Hospital considers the following factors in making a determination to
appropriate or accumulate endowment funds
(1) The duration and preservation of the fund
(2) The purposes of the Hospital and the donor restricted endowment fund
(3) General economic conditions

interest and dividends

Commitments and Contingencies


The Hospital is involved in various legal matters arising in the normal course of activities Although
the ultimate outcome is not determinable at this time, management, after taking into consideration
advice of legal counsel, believes that the resolution of these pending matters will not have a
material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, upon the consolidated financial
statements

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2014 and 2013
During May, 2014, the Hospital became aware of a safety concern related to the use of multi-dose
insulin pens on more than one patient On investigation, it was discovered that in a small number
of cases, multi-dose insulin pen cartridges intended for single patient use may have been used for
more than one patient, either after installing a new, sterile safety needle on the cartridge, or by
drawing up insulin with a new sterile syringe Through improper use of the insulin pens there is a
remote possibility that patients could have been exposed to certain blood-borne infections
In response , the Hospital decided to offer all of the approximately 3,149 patients for whom an
insulin pen was ordered during their hospitalization on or after September 1, 2008 and before
May 7 , 2014, free and confidential testing for hepatitis B, hepatitis C , and HIV The testing protocol
was determined after consultation with the Infectious Disease and Gastroenterology division chiefs
and in accordance with the current CDC guidelines
As of January 12, 2015, 7 patients have been identified as in need of further treatments and
testing The Hospital has established a reserve in the amount of $1,050,000 for cost associated
with the testing, treatment of patients and any litigation associated with the potential claims as of
September 30, 2014
