Independent Auditor’s Report

Board of Managers Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System San Antonio, Texas

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit and the fiduciary activities of Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System (the System), collectively a component unit of Bexar County, Texas, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the System’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these 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 financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the 2017 financial statements of the University Health System Pension Plan (Pension Plan), a pension trust fund of the System included in its fiduciary activities which represent 89 percent of total assets, 89 percent of fiduciary net position and 91 percent of additions for 2017 of the fiduciary activities. Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion on the 2017 aggregate remaining fiduciary fund information, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Pension Plan, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. 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 financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the 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 entity’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 financial statements.

d/b/a University Health System Page 2

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Opinions

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit and the fiduciary activities of the System as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, in 2018, the System adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions. Our opinions are not modified with respect to this matter.

Other Matters

Required Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, pension information and other postretirement benefits information, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic or historical context. We and the other auditors have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements and other knowledge we obtained during our audits of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Other Information

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements that collectively comprise the System’s basic financial statements. The report of management responsibility as listed in the table of contents is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on it.

Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System

A Component Unit of Bexar County, Texas Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Years Ended December 31, 2018 and 2017

(In Thousands)

Introduction

This management’s discussion and analysis of the financial performance of Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System (the System) provides an overview of the System’s financial activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the System.

The System continues to pursue its strategic vision to be the premier health system in south Texas, committed to delivering patient-centered, culturally competent and high quality health care, based on a strong foundation of outcomes-based research and innovative teaching. This vision guides decision- making and operational execution. The Triple-Aim Plus concept continues to be the guiding principles of how the System executes its strategy to serve the community. The System continues to be successful in executing the aims of: improving quality, safety and outcomes; improving the patient experience; improving efficiencies and improving access to care. These principles are the foundation of health care transformation and all initiatives pursued are developed in the spirit of transforming care using the Triple- Aim Plus goals.

2018 Highlights

A host of significant accomplishments in 2018 are already directly and positively impacting the patients served and positioning the System to effectively meet the challenges and opportunities related to health care reform and the Texas Transformation and Quality Improvement Program 1115 Waiver (the Waiver). Highlights of key initiatives and their outcomes relative to Triple-Aim Plus include:

Quality, Safety and Outcomes

 The System is ranked among the top 50 hospitals in the nation for urology care by U.S. News & World Report, and is designated as high-performing in the care of kidney and lung disease. Since 2001, U.S. News has consistently ranked University Hospital among the best hospitals in Texas and the San Antonio region.

 Successful unannounced survey by The Joint Commission (TJC) to maintain accreditation through TJC and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid. This comprehensive review of policies and practice provides assurance the organization provides high quality, safe and effective care in accordance with best practices and policies.

 Re-verified by the American College of Surgeons as a Level I adult trauma center and Level I pediatric trauma center. University Hospital serves the 22-county trauma region of South Texas as the only pediatric trauma and burn center, and one of two Level I adult trauma centers, thanks to a partnership with Brooke Army Medical Center.

 Designation as a Level IV neonatal intensive care unit by the Texas Department of State Health Services. Level IV signifies the highest level of care available for premature and very sick babies.

 One of the first hospitals in Texas to be surveyed by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists under Texas’ new level of care designations for maternal care. Official designation as a Level IV maternal fetal medicine service by the Texas Department of State Health Services is expected in 2019. Level IV signifies the highest level of care for high-risk deliveries and pre-natal management.

 One of 95 U.S. hospitals to receive the American College of Cardiology’s NCDR ACTION Registry Silver Performance Achievement Award for 2018. The award recognizes success in implementing a higher standard of care for heart attack patients.

 Certified by the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association for the Get With The Guidelines-Stroke Gold Plus and Target: Stroke Elite Plus Award.

 The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses conferred a GOLD-level Beacon Award for Excellence on the 12th floor Medical-Surgical Unit at University Hospital and a SILVER-level award for the 5th floor Medical Intensive Care Unit. The Beacon Award for Excellence is a significant milestone on the path to exceptional patient care and healthy work environments.

 University Health System’s “Improving Pediatric Asthma through Community Paramedicine” program to reduce the need for children with asthma to be transported to an ER received a 2018 Gage Award from America’s Essential Hospitals.

 The Texas Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve, an office of the Department of Defense, selected University Health System’s Southwest Clinic for the prestigious Pro Patria Award in the Public Employer category. This award is the highest honor the committee bestows in recognition of an employer’s support of their employees who also serve in the National Guard and Reservists.

 Community First Health Plans earned rare NCQA Distinction status as one of the few nonprofit health plans to be awarded Health Plan Accreditation for Medicaid HMO and Commercial HMO/POS lines of business. CFHP also received Distinction Status in Long-Term Services and Support.

The Patient Experience

 There is a direct link between the level of an employee’s engagement and his/her performance. This is especially critical in a high-stakes healthcare organization. In response to staff surveys the Health System continued to enhance internal communications in 2018, including sustained quarterly Town Hall meetings, weekly InfoHuddles and a new weekly Clinical Connections newsletter for providers that from the chief medical officer. Additional resources were deployed to provide management coaching as well as regular leadership rounding on hospital units and ambulatory clinics to improve communication and accountability and identify opportunities for improvements in real-time. The annual employee engagement survey resulted in the largest-ever response rate (79.15) and year-over-year score improvements. Patient experience survey responses are also above national averages. The Health System ended 2018 with 82.8% of our hospital patients saying they “would definitely recommend” University Hospital to friends and family (78th percentile nationally).

 In a related consideration to patient experience, the health system is performing well in consumer preference surveys conducted by third party research groups. In 2018, the System improved unaided brand awareness among potential patients, as well as its overall brand image and

preference indicators. The System ended the year as the second “Most preferred hospital for all health needs” in the highly regarded NRC Market Insights Consumer Study, and had the highest “Best image/reputation” score in the market.

Efficiencies

 The System either met or was able to carry-forward all DSRIP milestones due in 2018 under the Waiver. Some carry-forward results were able to be reported as successful in the following reporting period.

 Integrated lean management continues to be expanded through training initiatives to all levels of staff and incorporated in weekly rounding discussions in operational and financial departments.

 The System developed and implemented service line daily benchmark reports for activity and labor productivity.

Access to Care

 Moving forward with implementing design for a new Women’s and Children’s Tower at University Hospital along with a new heart, vascular and advanced endoscopy center based on approval received previously from Board of Managers and Bexar County Commissioner Court.

 Celebrated the 20th anniversary of CareLink, a financial assistance program for qualified Bexar County residents.

 The Level I trauma center at University Hospital activated its mass casualty protocol and cared for nine of the patients who were injured in the Sutherland Springs church shooting in November 2017. The team received significant national and international recognition throughout 2018 for its skilled and compassionate handling of this tragedy.

Financial Highlights

 In 2018, the System adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions. Adoption of GASB No. 75 resulted in a restatement of beginning net position at January 1, 2018 of $13.7 million. Prior year financial statements have not been restated for the adoption of GASB No. 75.

 The System’s net position increased by $94.6 million or 8.5% in 2018 and increased by $54.4 million or 5.1% in 2017. The increase in net position in both years is primarily due to increases in operating revenue and property tax revenue as discussed below.

 During 2018, the System’s total operating revenue increased by $138.6 million or 10.3%, while total operating expenses increased by $136.8 million or 8.1%. During 2017, the System’s total operating revenue increased by $110.7 million or 8.9%, while total operating expenses increased by $182.3 million or 12.1%.

 The System invested $52.8 million in capital assets in 2018 and $52.7 million in 2017, as part of the ongoing Capital Improvement Plan.

Financial Analysis of the System

The balance sheets and the statements of revenue, expenses, and changes in net position report information about the System’s financial activities. These two statements report the net position of the System and changes in the net position. Increases or decreases in the System’s net position are one indicator of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating. However, other nonfinancial factors such as changes in economic conditions, population growth, growth in the number of uninsured and working poor, taxable property values and tax rates, and new or changed state and federal government funding should also be considered.

A summary of the System’s balance sheets is presented in Table 1 as follows:

TABLE 1 Condensed Balance Sheets

Total liabilities, deferred inflows of resources and net position 3,079,967 $ 2,690,572 $ 2,582,095 $

As seen in Table 1, net position increased by $80.9 million in 2018, which is inclusive of the adjustment to January 1, 2018 net position due to the adoption of GASB No. 75 as discussed above. The increase in net position results primarily from an increase in patient service revenue attributable to growth in inpatient and outpatient services for adults and pediatrics. Additionally, growth in Community First Health Plans, Inc. (CFHP) covered members and service lines contributed to an increase in premium revenue. Property tax revenue, which is reflected as a component of nonoperating revenues, also increased significantly from prior year and is attributable to higher property values in Bexar County as well as taxes on new property values. Net position increased by $54.4 million to $1.12 billion in 2017, up from $1.07 billion in 2016.

During 2018, the System derived 22.3% of its total revenues from ad valorem taxes (property taxes), compared to 23.0% in 2017 and 22.9% in 2016. The Bexar County Commissioners Court is authorized to levy taxes on property within Bexar County to provide for the maintenance and operations of the System’s facilities and for debt service on approved debt issuances.

For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, investment return comprised 1.0%, 0.5% and 0.2%, respectively, of total revenue and was made up of interest income, net realized gains/losses and net unrealized market gains/losses.

For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, tobacco revenue comprised 0.4%, 0.4% and 0.3%, respectively, of total revenues and represented the System’s allocation of earnings on the state’s permanent trust funds from a settlement with tobacco companies in 1998.

Overall activity of the System, as measured by patient discharges adjusted for outpatient activity, increased 5.2% to 62,084 in 2018 from 59,007 in 2017. In 2018, net patient service revenue increased by $110.9 million to $880.4 million or 14.4% due primarily to increased volume. Patient discharges adjusted for outpatient activity, increased 7.5% to 59,007 in 2017 from 54,907 in 2016. In 2017, net patient service revenue increased by $15.4 million to $769.5 million or 2.0% due primarily to increased volume.

Overall, total operating revenue of $1.5 billion increased $138.6 million or 10.3% in 2018 compared to the total of $1.3 billion in 2017 that increased by $110.7 million or 8.9% over 2016. The increase in both years is attributable to the increase in net patient service revenue and premium revenue discussed above.

Employee compensation increased by $26.4 million or 4.7% in 2018 and $38.1 million or 7.2% in 2017. The increases are attributed to increased staffing due to increased activity in the hospital and clinic expansion initiatives.

Medical claims expense increased by $24.2 million or 5.49% in 2018 and $114.1 million or 33.9% in 2017. Increases in both years are attributable to increases in membership.

Purchased services, supplies and other expenses had an overall increase of $88.0 million or 15.0% in 2018 and an overall increase of $26.8 million or 4.8% in 2017. Of this amount, purchased services increased by $14.7 million or 6.5% in 2018 and supplies increased by $29.5 million or 13.3%. The increases are attributed to maintenance costs for equipment and increased activity in the hospital and clinic expansion initiatives.

Depreciation expense decreased by $1.7 million or 2.1% in 2018 and increased by $3.4 million or 4.3% in 2017. The 2017 increase in depreciation expense is a result the System bringing completed projects into operations throughout 2016 and 2017.

Overall, nonoperating revenues (expenses) of $430.2 million increased by $38.5 million or 9.8% from 2017. Nonoperating revenues (expenses) consists of property tax revenue, investment income, proceeds from the tobacco settlement (the settlement of litigation between the State Attorney General and various tobacco companies), BAB subsidy payments, interest expense on bonds and debt issuance costs.

In 2018, property taxes were levied to support maintenance and operations and debt service. Overall property taxes increased by $26.9 million to $426.5 million compared to the 2017 taxes of $399.7 million. Of the $426.5 million, $365.5 million was to support maintenance and operations. The remaining $61.0 million in property tax revenue is a debt service property tax to fund the payment of principal and interest (debt service) on the Certificates of Obligation issued in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2015 and 2018 and the Limited Tax Refunding Bonds, Series 2016.

Capital Assets and Long-term Debt

During 2018 and 2017, the System invested $52.8 million and $52.7 million, respectively, in a broad range of capital assets. Table 5 presents an analysis of capital asset balances between 2018, 2017 and 2016:

Construction in progress (CIP) increased by $19.1 million in 2018 due to information system investment and facility expansion. Other capital assets increased $26.7 million related to ongoing capital requirements such as clinical equipment and facility expansion.

CIP decreased by $23.6 million in 2017. Other capital assets increased $69.2 million related to ongoing capital requirements such as clinical equipment and information system and facility expansion.

In 2018, the System issued $283,565 in tax revenue Certificates of Obligation to fund new construction projects and facility improvements, primarily a women’s and children’s tower at the main hospital campus, as well as a heart and vascular institute and advanced endoscopy services facility. Long-term debt transactions in 2018 and 2017 are discussed more fully in Note 8. As discussed in Note 8, the System issued $204,065 in limited tax refunding bonds subsequent to year-end.

Economic Factors and Key Challenges

The System continues to serve as the anchor facility under the Waiver for RHP 6 which is comprised of 20 counties. A RHP plan was developed to describe and address health care needs throughout the RHP region and to develop a regional health care strategy focused on improving the experience of care for patients and their families, improving the health of the region, and reducing the cost of care without compromising quality. The RHP plan continues to be implemented and monitored to document improved access to care for individual and population health at a lower cost, delivered more efficiently.

Staff and the Board of Managers continue to monitor and consider many factors that have a direct or indirect impact on future operations of the System that include the following:

 The Waiver was originally effective from December 12, 2011 to September 30, 2016 and was then extended for one year. On December 31, 2017, HHSC received an approved renewal from CMS for the period of January 1, 2018 through September 30, 2022. Among other changes, the approved plan limits UC Pool funding to the cost of providing charity care and requires a phase out of the DSRIP program after the fourth year of the renewal period (September 30, 2021).

 Growing activity and improving operating efficiencies  Achieving the metrics for the 1115 Waiver projects  Continue executing the Pediatric Transition Plan Mitigating the impact of changes to state and

federal funding sources  Determining the impact of changes to the Affordable Care Act

10

 Mitigating the impact of proposed legislation to limit property tax growth

Strategic Plans to Meet These Challenges

 Continuing to maximize the Lean Management System (LMS) aimed at: o Incorporating lean continuous process improvement principles and techniques into daily

management processes to deliver value to our patients with minimum wasted time, supplies and effort

o Facilitating rapid improvements o Executing across all operational and support departments as well as across hospital and

ambulatory services o Assuring a mechanism is in place to develop, sustain and improve processes over time

 Design and develop plan to convert existing electronic medical record (EMR) to the fully integrated Epic platform

 Development of a solution for System dialysis and clinic services.  Continued construction activities on the main campus to accommodate our growing pediatric

service line.  Implementing strategic tactics to fulfill projected activity by:

o Focusing on key service lines  Trauma  Transplant  Cardiovascular  Neurosciences  Pediatrics/Children’s Health  Women’s Health Services including perinatal and neonatal care  Oncology

o Enhancing marketing, outreach and referral development o Executing planned clinical integration and physician alignment initiatives with key

service line physicians o Planning, design and construction of a new Women’s and Children’s Tower with a

completion date in 2022  Leveraging current technology, data and tools  Enhancing human capital through recognition programs and continuous learning

Note 1: Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations and Reporting Entity

The Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System (the System) is a hospital district established under Article IX, Section 4 of the Texas Constitution and Chapter 281 of the Texas Health and Safety Code. It is a political subdivision of the state of Texas, created to provide medical and hospital care to the needy and indigent of Bexar County, and is a discrete component unit of Bexar County (legally separate from Bexar County, Texas). Its Board of Managers (the Board) is composed of seven members appointed by the Commissioners Court of Bexar County for staggered terms of two years (or until a successor is appointed and qualified). Board members are “public officers” under the Texas Constitution who, as a body, exercise sovereign functions of government largely independent of the control of others, and serve without pay.

The System is one of the largest public health system in the state of Texas, with more than 7,000 employees and more than 800 physicians and resident physicians. It includes University Hospital, which operates an adult level 1 trauma center, the only level 1 pediatric trauma center in south Texas, the only Joint Commission-certified comprehensive stroke center in south Texas and the only level 4 comprehensive epilepsy center in south Texas. The System includes more than two dozen outpatient primary, specialty and preventive care centers, including the Robert B. Green Campus downtown; the Texas Diabetes Institute, dedicated to the prevention and treatment of diabetes; four family health centers; several neighborhood clinics, four dialysis centers; two outpatient surgery centers, two urgent care centers; two school-based health centers; and a healthcare program at Bexar County’s correctional facilities. The System is the primary teaching partner of UT Health Science Center San Antonio d/b/a UT Health San Antonio (UT Health).

The System has established various affiliated nonprofit, tax-exempt organizations to facilitate the funding, delivery and management of its health care mission. The accompanying financial statements present the System and its component units, entities for which the System is considered to be financially accountable. Blended component units are, in substance, part of the primary government’s operations, even though they are legally separate entities. Thus, blended units are appropriately presented as funds of the primary government. The System’s discretely presented component unit is reported in a separate column in the financial statements to emphasize that it is legally separate from the government.

Blended component units. Community First Health Plans (CFHP), a not-for-profit corporation, was established in 1994 to assist the System with providing and arranging health care services in accordance with the Texas Health Maintenance Organization Act (Chapter 20A, Vernon’s Texas Insurance Code). CFHP is organized as a health maintenance organization (HMO) licensed in Texas to provide comprehensive health care services to its members principally through its contractual relationships with physician groups, ancillary providers and hospitals, including the System. Because the System is the sole corporate member of CFHP, CFHP is reported as a blended component unit of the System. Separately issued financial reports are available for CFHP and may be obtained by contacting Community First Health Plans, 12238 Silicon Drive, Suite 100, San Antonio, Texas 78249.

University Medicine Associates (UMA) is a Texas nonprofit health organization certified by the Texas State Board of Medical Examiners pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Texas Medical Practice Act, now codified at Section 162.001 of the Texas Occupations Code. UMA provides primary care physician services at the System’s University Family Health Centers. Because the System is the sole corporate member of UMA, UMA is presented as a blended component unit of the System. UMA does not issue separate financial statements.

University Health System Services of Texas, Inc. (formerly known as Laundry Services of Texas, Inc.) (UHSST) was formed to establish membership in Central Texas Laundry Linen, LLC (CTL). The System’s governing board is responsible for all financial decisions related to UHSST, there exists a financial benefit or burden relationship between the System and UHSST and the System’s management has operational responsibility for UHSST. As such, the financial statements of UHSST are presented as a blended component unit of the System. UHSST does not issue separate financial statements. Owned by three regional health care organizations, CTL was formed to provide linen services to businesses and institutions in the region. UHSST holds a 24% interest in CTL, which is recorded using the equity method of accounting.

Beginning in 2018, UHSST holds a 14% interest in Academic Innovators Alliance, LLC (AIA), which is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. AIA was formed to operate, in collaboration with other members, a forward-looking, technology-enabled innovation and performance improvement platform that combines group purchasing services, data analytics, knowledge sharing, collaboration, innovation center, member support services, and advocacy focused on the unique needs of academic health systems, such as the System.

Discretely presented component unit. University Health System Foundation (the Foundation) was created in 1984 to raise funds for the System. The Foundation is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and is a legally separate entity from the System. The Foundation is reported as a discretely presented component unit of the System since the Foundation’s Board of Directors is appointed by the System’s Board (once recommended by the Foundation’s Board of Directors) and the System can impose its will on the Foundation. The Foundation has no corporate member. Separately issued financial reports are

The University Health System Pension Plan (the Plan) is a single-employer defined benefit pension plan designated as a public retirement system as defined in and authorized by Section 810.001 of the Texas Government Code and a government plan within the meaning of the IRC Section 414(d). The Plan is administered by the System and is fiscally dependent on the System. The Plan is reported as a fiduciary fund in the funds statements. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows and inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Plan and additions to/deductions from the Plan’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the Plan. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. Separate financial statements of the Plan are available at www.universityhealthsystem.com.

The University Health System Retiree Health Trust (the OPEB Trust) is a single-employer defined benefit OPEB established and administered by the System and is fiscally dependent on the System. The OPEB Trust is reported as a fiduciary fund in the funds statements. For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, deferred outflows and inflows of resources related to the OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the OPEB Trust and additions to/deductions from the OPEB’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the OPEB. For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. Separate financial statements of the OPEB Trust are available at www.universityhealthsystem.com.

Other significant relationships. In 1994, UT Health established a Texas nonprofit corporation organized under Section 501(a) of Article 4495b of the Texas Medical Practice Act, now codified at Section 162.001 of the Texas Occupations Code. This corporation serves as a contracting vehicle for physician services with the System and other payers, including managed care organizations.

Effective June 6, 2000, the System and Bexar County became the sole sponsors for the Center for Health Care Services (CHCS). The terms of the relationship are governed by a Sponsorship Agreement with Bexar County dated May 2, 2000. CHCS is a community center established under Chapter 534 of the Texas Health and Safety Code to provide a comprehensive array of services to improve the lives of people with mental health disorders, substance use challenges and intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) throughout Bexar County. CHCS was originally established by a coalition of 17 local taxing authorities in 1966.

The Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) required CHCS to divest its dual roles as a local authority and provider of IDD services, which it did by transferring its responsibility for IDD authority to the Alamo Area Council of Governments (AACOG) effective September 1, 2006.

The System entered into a memorandum of understanding with AACOG to connect the sponsorship obligations for IDD from CHCS to AACOG.

The balances and transactions of UT Medicine, CHCS and AACOG are not combined or otherwise included in the accompanying basic financial statements, but the System’s transactions with these organizations are included.

Unless otherwise noted, the following notes do not include the Foundation, the Plan or the OPEB Trust and the values reported in the tables are in thousands.

Basis of Accounting and Presentation

The financial statements of the System have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting using the economic resources measurement focus. Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets, liabilities and deferred inflows and outflows of resources from exchange and exchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange transaction takes place, while those from nonexchange transactions (principally federal and state grants) are recognized when all applicable eligibility requirements are met. Operating revenues and expenses include exchange transactions and program-specific, government-mandated nonexchange transactions. Nonexchange transactions that are not program specific, property taxes, investment income and interest on capital assets-related debt are included in nonoperating revenues and expenses. The System first applies restricted net position when an expense or outlay is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position are available.

In accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement (GASB) Statement No. 34, the assets and net position of the Plan and the OPEB Trust are presented separately from those of the System. The Plan is used to account for assets held in trust for the benefit of the employees of the System for the defined benefit pension plan. The OPEB Trust is used to account for assets held in trust related to the postretirement benefit program for employees of the System. The financial statements of the Plan and the OPEB Trust are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.

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, liabilities and deferred inflows and outflows of resources and disclosure 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.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The System considers all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits and money market mutual funds. The System does not consider highly liquid investments that are designated as to use as cash equivalents.

Patient Accounts Receivable

The System reports patient accounts receivable for services rendered at net realizable amounts from third-party payers, patients and others. The System provides an allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions.

Supplies

Supply inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out method, or market.

Investments and Investment Income

Investments in U.S. Treasury, agency and instrumentality obligations with a remaining maturity of one year or less at time of acquisition and in non-negotiable certificates of deposit are carried at amortized cost. Investments in external investment pools qualifying for amortized cost under GASB Statement No. 79, Certain External Investment Pools and Pool Participants, are carried at amortized cost per share. All other investments are carried at fair value as determined using quoted market prices.

Investment income includes dividend and interest income, realized gains and losses on investments carried at other than fair value and the net change for the year in the fair value of investments carried at fair value.

State statutes and the Board of Managers authorize the System to invest in a limited number of instruments, as further described in Note 3.

Capital Assets

Capital assets are recorded at cost at the date of acquisition, or acquisition value at the date of donation if acquired by gift. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset. Assets under capital lease obligations and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or their respective estimated useful lives. The following estimated useful lives are being used by the System:

Land improvements 5 – 15 years Buildings and leasehold improvements 10 – 30 years Equipment 5 – 15 years

The System capitalizes interest costs as a component of construction in progress, based on interest costs of borrowing specifically for the project, net of interest earned on investments acquired with the proceeds of the borrowing. Total interest capitalized and incurred was:

2018 2017

Total interest expense incurred on borrowings for project 8,928 $ -$ Interest income from investment of proceeds of borrowings for project (3,277) -

Net interest cost capitalized 5,651 $ -$

Interest capitalized 8,928 $ -$ Interest charged to expense 29,166 32,347

Total interest incurred 38,094 $ 32,347 $

Compensated Absences

The System’s employees earn paid time off (PTO) at varying rates depending on years of service. Employees may accumulate PTO up to a specified maximum. Employees are paid for accumulated PTO upon voluntary termination, including retirement, as employees who retire from the System may convert accumulated PTO to termination payments at a rate of 50% of their accumulated PTO balances. The estimated amount of PTO payable as termination payments is reported as a current liability in both 2018 and 2017.

Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources

Transactions not meeting the definition of an asset or liability that result in the consumption or acquisition of net position in one period that are applicable to future periods are reported as

25

Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System

December 31, 2018 and 2017 (In Thousands)

deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources in a separate section of its balance sheets.

Net Position

Net position of the System is classified in four components. Net investment in capital assets consists of capital assets net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances of borrowings used to finance the purchase or construction of those assets. Restricted expendable net position is made up of noncapital assets that must be used for a particular purpose, as specified by enabling legislation, creditors, grantors or donors external to the System, including amounts deposited with trustees as required by bond indentures, reduced by the outstanding balances of any related borrowings. Restricted nonexpendable net position consists of noncapital assets that are required to be maintained in perpetuity as specified by parties external to the System, such as permanent endowments. Unrestricted net position is the remaining net position that does not meet the definition of net investment in capital assets or restricted net position.

Risk Management

The System is exposed to various risks of loss from torts; theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; business interruption; errors and omissions; employee injuries and illnesses; natural disasters; medical malpractice; and employee health, dental and accident benefits. Commercial insurance coverage is purchased for claims arising from such matters other than medical malpractice, employee health and workers’ compensation claims. Settled claims have not exceeded this commercial coverage in any of the three preceding years.

The System is self-insured for a portion of its exposure to risk of loss from medical malpractice, employee health and workers’ compensation claims. Annual estimated provisions are accrued for the self-insured portion of these risks and include an estimate of the ultimate costs for both reported claims and claims incurred but not yet reported.

Net Patient Service Revenue

The System has agreements with third-party payers that provide for payments to the System at amounts different from its established rates. Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net realizable amounts from patients, third-party payers and others for services rendered and includes estimated retroactive revenue adjustments and a provision for uncollectible accounts. Retroactive adjustments are considered in the recognition of revenue on an estimated basis in the period the related services are rendered and such estimated amounts are revised in future periods as adjustments become known.

Charity Care

The System provides charity care to residents of Bexar County who qualify on a financial basis for the CareLink Program and to all others who qualify based on the System’s charity care policy. The System does not pursue collection of amounts in excess of the established guidelines for those patients who meet the charity criteria. Such excess is considered charity care and is not reported as revenue.

The System’s CareLink Program is used to discount gross charges for medical services received in the System’s facilities. Under this program, residents of Bexar County have an established maximum family liability rather than a discount of total gross charges. Key factors in establishing a family’s maximum liability levels are: number of dependents, income and the relationship of these factors to the current Poverty Index. The System does not pursue collection of amounts in excess of the maximum family liability. Such excess amounts are considered charity care and are not reported as revenue.

Arrangements are made with residents of Bexar County to pay their reduced medical costs in installments. Any amounts designated as not being due prior to December 31 of the subsequent year are classified as long-term patient receivables and are presented net of applicable allowances.

Non-CareLink patients meeting the financial and medical indigency criteria established in the charity policy receive a discount from gross charges for emergency and catastrophic medical services received in the System’s facilities. Charges for financial indigency are discounted based on family income compared to the Poverty Index. Charges for medical indigency are discounted when charges exceed a certain income and asset level.

The System maintains records to identify and monitor the level of charity care it provides. These records include the amount of charges forgone for services and supplies furnished under its charity care policy. The charges forgone, based on established rates, were approximately $797,754 and $568,930 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The costs of charity care provided under the System’s charity care policy were approximately $231,497 and $174,078 for 2018 and 2017, respectively. The cost of charity care is estimated by applying the ratio of cost to gross charges to the gross charity care charges.

Premium Revenue

CFHP has agreements with plan sponsors to arrange health service benefits for subscribing participants. Under these agreements, CFHP receives monthly premium payments based on the number of each plan sponsor’s participants. In addition, CFHP receives supplementary delivery payments under the Medicaid program.

27

Medical Claims Expense

CFHP arranges for the provision of comprehensive health care services to its members principally through its contractual relationships with physician groups, ancillary providers, and hospitals, including the System. Physicians, ancillary providers, and hospitals are paid a contracted fee for service or a capitation rate, and CFHP is responsible for any related payments to those providers.

The cost of health care services provided is accrued in the period it is rendered to the enrolled members, based in part on estimates for hospital and physician services rendered to enrolled members during the period that have not yet been reported.

Premium Deficiency Reserve

Premium deficiency losses are recognized when it is probable that expected claims expense will exceed future premiums on existing insurance contracts. CFHP does not include investment income in the premium deficiency reserve calculation. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, CFHP had recorded a premium deficiency reserve of $1,765 and $6,051, respectively, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying financial statements.

Reserves for Incurred But Not Reported Medical Claims

CFHP’s management estimates and provides reserves for incurred but not reported physician and hospital services rendered to enrolled members during the period. These reserves represent management’s best estimate of the ultimate net cost of all reported and unreported claims incurred during the reporting period. The estimate is based on actuarial projections of the historical development of claims incurred but not reported and case-basis estimates of claims reported prior to the end of the reporting period.

The estimate of the unpaid claims liability is based on the best data available to management; however, the estimates are subject to a significant degree of inherent variability. The estimates are continually reviewed and adjusted as necessary as experience develops or new information becomes known and such adjustments are included in current operations.

Although management believes the estimate of the unpaid liability is reasonable, it is possible that actual incurred claims expense will not conform to the assumptions inherent in the determination of the liability; accordingly, the ultimate settlement of the claims may vary significantly from the estimate included in the accompanying financial statements.

Tobacco Settlement Revenue

Tobacco settlement revenue is the result of a settlement between various counties and hospital districts in Texas and the tobacco industry for tobacco-related health care costs. The System received approximately $7,980 and $7,773 in revenue from this settlement for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. This revenue is recognized as nonoperating revenue in the accompanying statements of revenues, expenses and changes in net position.

Property Taxes

The System received approximately 22% and 23% of its financial support from property taxes in 2018 and 2017, respectively. These funds were used as follows:

2018 2017

Percentage used to support operations 85.7% 85.5% Percentage used for debt service on bonds 14.3% 14.5%

Total 100.0% 100.0%

Property taxes are levied by the System on October 1 of each year based on the preceding January 1 assessed property values. To secure payment, an enforceable lien attaches to the property on January 1, when the value is assessed. Property taxes become due and payable when levied on October 1. This is the date on which an enforceable legal claim arises and the System records a receivable for the property tax assessment, less an allowance for uncollectible taxes. Property taxes are considered delinquent after January 31 of the following year. The System recorded an allowance for uncollectible property taxes of approximately $14,850 and $16,314 at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, the System had recorded approximately $454,871 and $427,393 of property taxes levied for services to be provided in 2019 and 2018, respectively. These amounts are reported as a deferred inflow of resources in the accompanying balance sheets and will be recognized as revenue in the period for which they were levied.

The System’s property tax rate was $0.236800 and $0.236069 per $100 valuation for 2018 and 2017, respectively, for the maintenance and operation fund. The System’s property tax rate was $0.039435 and $0.040166 per $100 valuation for 2018 and 2017, respectively, for the interest and sinking fund.

Build America Bond Interest Subsidy

The System issued taxable Build America Bonds (BABs) in August 2010 and August 2009. Under the BABs program, the U.S. Treasury pays 35% of the interest as a subsidy to the issuer. The System records the interest subsidy received or receivable from the U.S. Treasury as nonoperating revenue when the System has met all of the eligibility criteria to receive the subsidy. The System recorded $8,105 and $8,226 of nonoperating revenue in 2018 and 2017, respectively, for the BABs interest subsidy. During 2018 and 2017, the BABs subsidy was reduced by 6.6% and 6.9%, respectively as a result of the federal budget sequestration.

Income Taxes

As an essential government function of the County, the System is generally exempt from federal and state income taxes under Section 115 of the IRC and a similar provision of state law. In 2018, the System obtained an exemption from income taxes under IRC Section 501(c)(3). UMA, CFHP and the Foundation carry exemptions from income taxes under IRC Section 501 sections. The System, UMA, CFHP and the Foundation are subject to federal income tax on any unrelated business taxable income.

Change in Accounting Principle

GASB Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions, was implemented during 2018. The revised requirements establish new financial reporting requirements for state and local governments which provide their employees with OPEB benefits, including additional note disclosure and required supplementary information. In addition, GASB Statement No. 75 requires a state or local government employer to use the entry age normal actuarial cost method and requires deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources which arise from other types of events related to OPEB to be recognized. Restatement of the 2017 financial statements is not practical because prior year information calculated under the provisions of GASB 75 is not available. Accordingly, the System has reported the cumulative effect of applying GASB 75 as a restatement of beginning net position at January 1, 2018. This restatement decreased previously reported net position by $13,704.

Note 2: Net Patient Service Revenue

The System has agreements with third-party payers that provide for payments to the System at amounts different from its established rates. These payment arrangements include:

Medicare. Inpatient acute care services and substantially all outpatient services rendered to Medicare program beneficiaries are paid at prospectively determined rates. These rates vary according to a patient classification system that is based on clinical, diagnostic and other

30

Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System

A Component Unit of Bexar County, Texas Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2018 and 2017 (In Thousands)

factors. Certain inpatient nonacute services and defined medical education costs are paid based on a cost reimbursement methodology.

The System is reimbursed for certain services at tentative rates with final settlement determined after submission of annual cost reports by the System and audits thereof by the Medicare fiscal intermediary. The System’s Medicare cost reports have been audited by the Medicare administrative contractor through December 31, 2014.

Medicaid. Inpatient services rendered to Medicaid program beneficiaries are reimbursed under a prospective payment system. Inpatient reimbursement is inclusive of an add-on for trauma care that is based on the Medicaid Standard Dollar Amount. Outpatient and physician services are reimbursed under a mixture of fee schedules and cost reimbursement. The System is reimbursed for cost reimbursable services at tentative rates with final settlement determined after submission of annual cost reports by the System and audits thereof by the Medicaid administrative contractor. The System’s Medicaid cost reports have been audited by the Medicaid administrative contractor through December 31, 2013.

Approximately 65% of net patient service revenue is from participation in the Medicare and state- sponsored Medicaid programs for each of the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. Laws and regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation and change. As a result, it is reasonably possible that recorded estimates will change materially in the near term.

The System has also entered into payment agreements with certain commercial insurance carriers, health maintenance organizations and preferred provider organizations. The basis for payment to the System under these agreements includes prospectively determined rates per discharge, discounts from established charges and prospectively determined daily rates.

Supplemental Medicaid Funding Revenue

In response to the growing number of uninsured patients and the rising cost of health care, the Texas Legislature established a Texas Medicaid Disproportionate Share Program (DSH Program) that was designed to assist those facilities serving the majority of the indigent patients by providing funds supporting increased access to health care within the community. This program allows the Texas Department of Human Services to levy assessments from certain hospitals, use the assessed funds to obtain federal matching funds, and then redistribute the total funds to those facilities serving a disproportionate share of indigent patients in the state of Texas. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, the System had recorded approximately $4,351 and $6,027 of DSH revenue for services to be provided in 2019 and 2018, respectively. These amounts are reported as revenue received in advance in the accompanying balance sheets and are recognized as revenue during the period in which services are provided.

On December 12, 2011, the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHSC) approved a Medicaid section 1115(a) demonstration entitled “Texas Health Transformation and Quality Improvement Program” (the Waiver) that allowed the state to expand Medicaid managed care while preserving hospital funding, provide incentive payments for health care improvements and direct more funding to hospitals that serve large numbers of uninsured patients. The Waiver established two pools, an Uncompensated Care Pool (UC Pool) to offset the cost of uncompensated care and a Delivery System Reform Initiative Payment Pool (DSRIP) as incentive payments for developing programs and strategies supporting hospitals’ efforts to improve access to health care; improve quality and outcomes of care; improve efficiencies of care provided; and to improve the patient experience by managing the health of patients and families served. DSRIP payments are made for system improvements identified in Regional Healthcare Partnerships (RHP) delivery system reform and improvement plans (RHP Plan) led by public hospitals such as the System or governmental entities that will provide the state share of Waiver pool funds. The System serves as the anchor facility for the 20 county RHP 6. The revenue from the two funding pools is recognized as earned throughout the related demonstration year. Funding from the UC Pool is limited to actual uncompensated care costs, as defined by the Waiver.

The Waiver was originally effective from December 12, 2011 to September 30, 2016 and extended through December 2017 as HHSC and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) negotiated a longer term extension. On December 21, 2017, HHSC received an approved extension from CMS for the period of January 1, 2018 through September 30, 2022. Among other changes, the approved plan limits UC Pool funding to the cost of providing charity care and requires a phase out of DSRIP over the five year period. The full impact of these changes has not yet been determined, but could have an adverse impact on the System’s operating results.

The System participates in the Network Access Improvement Program (NAIP). The NAIP aims to increase the availability and effectiveness of primary care for Medicaid beneficiaries by providing incentive payments to participating Health Related Institutions (HRIs). Participation is voluntary and requires HRIs to create a proposal in partnership with a managed care organization (MCO). When the proposal is approved by the Health and Human Services Commission, the costs associated with the incentive payments are added to the monthly capitation rates paid to the MCO and the MCOs are responsible for making payments to the HRIs, such as the System.

The System also participates in the Uniform Hospital Rate Increase Program (UHRIP). Under UHRIP, HHSC may direct managed care organizations in a service delivery area to provide a uniform percentage rate increase to all hospitals within a particular class of hospitals. The program increases revenue from services provided to the Medicaid managed care beneficiaries. The state’s share of UHRIP funding is funded through intergovernmental transfers from certain hospitals, including the System. Revenue from the UHRIP program is recognized as a component of net patient service revenue in the statements of changes in revenues, expenses and changes in net position.

32

The System also participates in the Quality Improvement Payment Program (QIPP). The program is designed to assist nursing facilities serving indigent patients by providing funding to support increased access to health care into the community. It is also designed to allow participating providers to receive additional reimbursement if they either reach a national benchmark level or they make quarterly improvements in up to four predetermined quality measures.

Effective October 1, 2018, the System began to participate in a Medicaid Graduate Medical Education (GME) supplemental payment program. The program increase reimbursement to eligible teaching hospitals in an effort to create greater financial stability for residency programs.

Revenue recognized from all programs is included as a component of net patient service revenue in the statements of revenues, expenses and changes in net position as follows:

2018 2017

DSH Program 27,052 $ 32,104 $ UC Pool 36,428 46,633 DSRIP 84,820 55,270 NAIP 31,432 30,716 GME 1,937 - QIPP 1,817 486

183,487 $ 165,209 $

At December 31, 2017, the System estimated that approximately $17,171 was payable under these programs based on tentative audit results from a prior year. Final audit results were determined in 2018 and the final payable was approximately $1,010, resulting in current year net revenue of approximately $16,161 for the year ending December 31, 2018.

Accounts receivable under these programs were $88,911 and $76,047 at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and are included in estimated amounts due from third-party payers. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the System recorded approximately $39,797 and $24,177, respectively, of prepaid intergovernmental transfers, which the System is required to contribute as the state share of UHRIP funding, which is included as prepaid expenses in the accompanying financial statements.

The System realized a savings in medical service costs of $79,617 and $96,221 in 2018 and 2017, respectively. The System incurred increased costs to supplement the state’s funding for the affiliated providers by approximately $93,553 and $74,971 in 2018 and 2017, respectively. The supplement to the state’s funding is recorded in medical services expense in the statements of revenues, expenses and changes in net position.

The programs described above are subject to review and scrutiny by both the Texas Legislature and the CMS and the programs could be modified or terminated based on new legislation or regulation in future periods.

Note 3: Deposits and Investments

Deposits

Custodial credit risk is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, a government’s deposits may not be returned to it. The System’s deposit policy for custodial credit risk requires compliance with the provisions of state law.

State law requires collateralization of all deposits with federal depository insurance or other qualified investments. At December 31, 2018, the System’s bank deposits were fully insured or collateralized. At December 31, 2017, the System had $732 of cash that was uninsured and uncollateralized.

Investments

The System may legally invest in direct obligations of and other obligations guaranteed as to principal by the U.S. Treasury and U.S. agencies and instrumentalities and in bank repurchase agreements. It may also invest to a limited extent in corporate bonds and equity securities.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the System had the following investments and maturities:

December 31, 2017 Maturities in Years

Interest Rate Risk – As a means of limiting its exposure to fair value losses arising from rising interest rates, the System’s investment policy requires that total investments have a weighted- average maturity of five years or less. The longer the maturity of a fixed-rate obligation, the greater the impact a change in interest rates will have on its fair value. As interest rates increase, the fair value of the obligations decrease. Likewise, when interest rates decrease, the fair value of the obligations increase. The money market mutual funds are presented as an investment with a maturity of less than one-year because they are redeemable in full immediately. The System’s investment policy limits the maturity periods of its investments by type to a maximum of 10 years.

Credit Risk – Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO). The System and CFHP each have formal investment policies adopted by the Board of Managers and Board of Directors, respectively, that limit investments in securities based on an NRSRO credit rating. The System’s investments are also subject to the Public Funds Investment Act (the Act), at Government Code Chapter 2256, and CFHP’s investments are also subject to regulations enumerated in Title 28, Chapter 11 of the Texas Administrative Code (TAC) and Chapter 20A of the Texas Insurance Code (TIC).

Investments authorized by the Act and the System’s investment policy are limited to: obligations of the United States government or its agencies; repurchase agreements collateralized by obligations of the United States government or its agencies; investment pools with at least an AA-m or better rating by one nationally recognized rating service; commercial paper with a stated maturity of 270 days or less, and a credit rating of A-1 or P-1 or its equivalent by at least two nationally recognized credit rating agencies; certificates of deposit issued by a state bank, national bank, or a savings and loan association domiciled in Texas, with FDIC insurance and collateralized by obligations of the U.S. government or its agencies, with market value of 102% of the insured principal amount; bankers’ acceptances of a bank

organized and existing under the laws of the United States, whose short-term obligations are rated not less than A-1 or P-1 or its equivalent by at least one nationally recognized rating agency, and with a stated maturity of 270 days or less; and no-load money market mutual funds registered by the Securities and Exchange Commission with a dollar-weighted-average stated maturity of 90 days or less, and an investment objective of a stable net asset value of one dollar.

Investments authorized by the TAC, TIC and CFHP’s investment policy are limited to obligations of the United States government or its agencies; certificates of deposit with a credit rating of Moody’s A2 or Standard & Poor’s (S&P) A; corporate obligations with a credit rating of Moody’s A1 or S&P A+; municipal notes and bonds with a credit rating of Moody’s Aaa or S&P AAA; auction-rate securities with a credit rating of Moody’s A2 or S&P A; and asset- backed securities with a credit rating of Moody’s Aaa or S&P AAA.

The System’s investments in U.S. Treasury obligations carry the explicit guarantee of the U.S. government. At December 31, 2018, the debt securities of the U.S. agencies are rated AA+ by S&P or Aaa by Moody’s. The System’s investments in municipal bonds were rated AAA by S&P or Aaa by Moody’s at December 31, 2018. The System’s investments in commercial paper was rated A-1+ or A-1 by S&P at December 31, 2018.

The System also invests in TexPool, a state investment pool, which is considered an investment for financial reporting. The Texas State Comptroller of Public Accounts (Comptroller) oversees TexPool. Federated Investors provides asset management and participant services for TexPool’s operations under a contract with the Comptroller. The Comptroller has established an advisory board comprised of participants and others who do not have a business relationship with TexPool. The advisory board reviews the investment policy and management fee structure. TexPool is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment company. The District has an undivided beneficial interest in the pool of assets held by TexPool. Investments must be in compliance with the Texas Public Fund Investment Act and include obligations of the United States or its agencies, direct obligation of the state of Texas or its agencies, certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements. The fair value of the position in these pools is the same as the value of the shares in each pool. TexPool is rated AAA by Standard & Poor’s.

Custodial Credit Risk – For an investment, custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the System will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. All of the System’s investments are held in safekeeping or trust accounts.

Concentration of Credit Risk – The System places no limit on the amount that may be invested in any one issuer as long as the restrictions of the Texas Public Funds Investment Act are followed.

Note 7: Risk Management

Employee Health Claims

The System is self-insured for employee health insurance costs. The self-insured plan is administered by CFHP, which determines the cost of claims paid to community health care providers and estimates a reserve for medical claims incurred but not yet reported. The System also recognizes the incremental cost of services provided by the System to plan participants. The System maintains a stop-loss insurance contract to cover 90% of certain medical costs in excess of $175 per claim, up to a maximum of $2,000 per contract year and $5,000 per member lifetime maximum.

Workers’ Compensation Claims

The System participates in a self-insurance program that provides for the payment of workers’ compensation claims. The funding for this program is based on third-party recommendations for settlement in accordance with Texas workers’ compensation laws. The System has purchased reinsurance for individual claims exceeding $600 up to a maximum limit of $1,000 for any one accident or occurrence.

Professional Liability Claims

The System funds a revocable self-insurance trust to provide for the payment of medical malpractice liabilities. The funding is based on management’s recommendations for settlement of claims to limits of $100 per claim and $300 per occurrence, in accordance with the limited liability provisions of the Texas Tort Claims Act. The System is also self-insured for “tail coverage” for certain employed physicians. This coverage has a limited time exposure and also is subject to claims limits. Amounts are provided for funding, and estimated liabilities for incurred but not yet reported claims are based on management estimates.

Losses from asserted and unasserted claims identified under the System’s incident reporting system are accrued based on estimates that incorporate the System’s past experience, as well as other considerations, including the nature of each claim or incident and relevant trend factors. It is reasonably possible that the System’s estimate of losses will change by a material amount in the near term.

Medical Claims Payable

CFHP’s medical claims payable represents the estimate of the ultimate net cost of all reported and unreported medical claims incurred but not paid through the end of the year. This estimate is based on claims reported, actuarial estimates and trends in the health care costs. Subsequent actual claims experience and related settlement costs may differ from the estimated liability due to variances in estimated and actual subscriber utilization of medical services, the amount of charges and other factors. This estimate is subject to a significant degree of inherent variability. The estimates are continually reviewed and any necessary adjustments are included in current operations.

Note 9: Pension Plan

Plan Description and Benefits Provided

The System sponsors a single-employer defined benefit pension plan which covers substantially all of the System’s employees who work at least 20 hours per week or at least 1,000 hours annually and were hired before July 1, 2012 under a traditional final average pay formula based on years of service and average earnings at termination. Employees are eligible for participation in the plan after attaining the age of 21 and completing one year of service. All employees with hire dates through June 30, 2012 must participate in the plan as a condition of employment. Employees hired after June 30, 2012 must participate in the Cash Balance Plan and are eligible for participation in the plan after attaining the age of 21 and completing one year of service.

Plan participants have a 100% vested right in the accrued benefits derived from their accumulated contributions. With regard to participants’ accrued benefits derived from employer contributions, the participants become fully vested at the completion of five years of vesting service. The System makes contributions which are actuarially determined to pay the plan’s total cost less the projected employee contributions.

Final Average Pay Formula

Participants are eligible for normal retirement benefits after attaining age 65 and completing five years of vesting service; or, after age 55 and the number of years of service needed for the sum of the participant’s age and years of service to equal 85 years (Rule of 85). Annual normal retirement benefits (accrued benefits) are equal to 1.5% of the participant’s average 5 highest years’ pay in the last 10 years, times the number of years of credited service.

An early retirement provision is available to participants who attain age 55 and five years of vesting service, but do not satisfy the Rule of 85. The early retirement benefit equals the normal retirement benefit at actual retirement reduced at the rate of 1/15th for each of the first five years before age 65 and 1/30th for each of the next five years before age 65 and the participants actual retirement age.

Pre-retirement death benefits before vesting or attainment of age 55 are equal to the amount of the participant’s contributions plus 4.5% interest per annum and may be distributed in a lump sum or in installments up to 60 months. Pre-retirement death benefits on or after eligibility for normal retirement are a monthly benefit payable to named beneficiary equal to 50% of the present actuarial value of the participant’s accrued benefit otherwise payable on the participant’s date of death.

The System has agreed (but does not guarantee) to voluntarily contribute such amounts as are necessary to maintain the plan on a sound actuarial basis. The System has the right to discontinue such contributions and terminate the plan at any time. However, under no conditions may the System withdraw its contributions, or use them for any purpose other than the exclusive benefit of

46

Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System

the plan participants and their beneficiaries; and, to pay for administrative expenses. Participants in the plan contribute 2% of gross pay upon achievement of eligibility and thereafter until the time of retirement or separation from employment with the System.

Match Savings Formula

The System also deposits amounts to the plan to fund a Match Savings Plan to encourage eligible employees to participate in a 457 Deferred Compensation Retirement Savings Plan (457 Plan). Under the Match Savings Plan, the System will match 25% of an employee’s contribution to the 457 Plan, up to 4% of compensation. Benefits will be distributed upon retirement or separation from service after satisfying the vesting requirements.

Cash Balance Formula

On June 11, 2012, the plan was amended to stipulate that employees hired by the System after June 30, 2012 shall not be eligible to participate in the plan, except for the Match Savings Plan and the Cash Balance Plan. Other employees rehired after June 30, 2012, shall be treated as subject to this amendment unless they were vested in their accrued benefits prior to the date of being rehired.

Under the terms of the Cash Balance Plan, eligible employees are required to contribute 3% of eligible compensation and the System also contributes 3% of each participating employee’s eligible compensation. Plan participants have a 100% vested right in the accrued benefits derived from their accumulated contributions. With regard to participants’ accrued benefits derived from employer contributions, the participants become fully vested at the completion of five years of vesting service. Employee and System contributions made on the employees behalf are credited to a hypothetical cash balance account maintained in the Plan’s recordkeeping system. As contributions are credited to the employee’s account, interest credits are also made to the account, based on the balance of the account on the first day of each Plan quarter. Interest is measured by the actual rate of return of the entire Pension Trust. Upon the employee’s retirement or termination of employment, their cash balance account will be credited with at least the total of all of the contributions that have been credited to their account.

Contributions

The Board has the authority to establish and amend the contribution requirements of the System and active employees. The Board establishes rates based on an actuarially determined rate recommended by an independent actuary. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The Board has agreed to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, employees contributed $7,325 and $6,589 (or 2.2% and 2.1% of covered payroll), and the System contributed $24,296 and $17,891 (or 7.3% and 5.8% of covered payroll), respectively, to the Plan.

Net Pension Liability

The System’s net pension liability was measured as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by actuarial valuations as of January 1, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Update procedures were used to roll forward the total pension liability to the respective measurement dates.

The total pension liability in the 2017 and 2016 actuarial valuations was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement:

2017 2016

Wage inflation 3.5% 3.5% Salary increases 5.4% 4.9% Ad hoc cost of living adjustments N/A N/A Investment rate of return 7.0% 7.0%

The salary increases and investment rate of return assumptions are inclusive of inflation. The investment rate of return is net of administrative expenses.

Mortality rates were based on the RP-2000 Mortality Table, projected generationally using scale AA.

The System generally performs an experience study every three to five years. The assumptions used to generate the numbers in these statements were based on an experience study performed in 2016.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was based primarily on a reasonable projection of what assets can be expected to earn given existing capital market conditions, adjusted for changes in target portfolio allocations and recent changes in long-term interest rates based on publicly available information. The target allocation and best estimates of geometric rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the following table:

Discount Rate

The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.0% for both the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that employee contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that System contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the employee rate. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive employees. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

Changes in the total pension liability, plan fiduciary net position and the net pension liability for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 are:

Discount Rate

The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB Plan liability was 7.0%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that System contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. Based on those assumptions, the OPEB Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected OPEB Plan payments for current active and inactive employees. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on OPEB Plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB Plan liability.

OPEB – GASB No. 45

Prior to adopting GASB No. 75 in 2018, the System’s annual OPEB Plan cost was calculated based on the annual required contribution (ARC) of the employer, an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed 30 years.

As of January 1, 2016, the most recent actuarial valuation date as of December 31, 2017, the plan was 69.0% funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was approximately $48,675, and the actuarial value of assets was approximately $33,596, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability of $15,079.

Note 11: Affiliation Agreement

The System has entered into a long-standing affiliation agreement with UT Health. Under the agreement, the System’s facilities serve as the major teaching facilities for many of UT Health’s health care programs, including the graduate medical education program. The System incurred expenses of approximately $13,958 and $13,769 in 2018 and 2017, respectively, under the terms of the agreement.

Note 12: Disclosures About Fair Value of Investments

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

58

Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System

A Component Unit of Bexar County, Texas Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2018 and 2017 (In Thousands)

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3 Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Recurring Measurements

The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying balance sheets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at December 31, 2018 and 2017:

Fair Value Measurements Using

Investments

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent asset pricing services and pricing models, the inputs of which are market-based or independently sourced market parameters, including, but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, prepayments, defaults, cumulative loss projections and cash flows. Such securities are classified in Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy. The System held no Level 3 investments at December 31, 2018 or 2017.

Note 14: Future Change in Accounting Principles

GASB Statement No. 84, Fiduciary Activities

In January 2017, GASB issued Statement No. 84, Fiduciary Activities (GASB 84), which establishes criteria for identifying fiduciary activities of all state and local governments. The focus of the criteria generally is on (1) whether a government is controlling the assets of the fiduciary activity and (2) the beneficiaries with whom a fiduciary relationship exists. Separate criteria are included to identify fiduciary component units and postemployment benefit arrangements that are

Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System

December 31, 2018 and 2017 (In Thousands)

fiduciary activities. The requirements of GASB 84 are applicable for the System for the year ending December 31, 2019.

GASB Statement No. 87, Leases

GASB Statement No. 87, Leases (GASB 87), provides a new framework for accounting for leases under the principle that leases are financings. No longer will leases be classified between capital and operating. Lessees will recognize an intangible asset and a corresponding liability. The liability will be based on the payments expected to be paid over the lease term, which includes an evaluation of the likelihood of exercising renewal or termination options in the lease. Lessors will recognize a lease receivable and related deferred inflow of resources. Lessors will not derecognize the underlying asset. An exception to the general model is provided for short-term leases that cannot last more than 12 months. Contracts that contain lease and nonlease components will need to be separated so each component is accounted for accordingly.

GASB 87 is effective for financial statements for the System’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. Earlier application is encouraged. Governments will be allowed to transition using the facts and circumstances in place at the time of adoption, rather than retroactive to the time each lease was begun. The impact of adopting GASB 87 on the System’s financial statements is not currently determinable.

GASB Statement No. 89, Accounting for Interest Cost Incurred Before the End of a Construction Period

GASB Statement No. 89, Accounting for Interest Cost Incurred Before the End of a Construction Period (GASB 89), removes the concept of capitalized interest from all types of governmental entities. GASB 89 is effective for the System’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2020 and will be adopted prospectively. Earlier application is encouraged.

Note 15: Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the System is, from time to time, subject to allegations that may or do result in litigation. Some of these allegations are in areas not covered by the System’s self- insurance program (discussed elsewhere in these notes) or by commercial insurance; for example, allegations regarding employment practices or performance of contracts. The System evaluates such allegations by conducting investigations to determine the validity of each potential claim. Based upon the advice of legal counsel, management records an estimate of the amount of ultimate expected loss, if any, for each. Events could occur that would cause the estimate of ultimate loss to differ materially in the near term.
