Letter from the Chair
Dear Fellow Community Members,
As the new Chairman of the Barton
Foundation, I look forward to the
challenges of the coming year. It is
with some trepidation that we look
toward the roll-out of the Affordable
Care Act (ACA) and the many
challenges that it represents for
Barton Health and our community.
While many in our community
will benefit from having affordable
healthcare, how that will affect our
rural hospital remains to be seen.
Each day we learn something new,
and we won’t know the full effect of
healthcare reform for years to come.
As Chairman, it is my job to assist the
Hospital in improving the quality of
healthcare available to our community.
One of the Foundation’s primary roles
is that of fund raiser for Barton Health;
our vision statement is:
“To positively impact the health of everyone
in our community by providing the financial
resources necessary to fulfill Barton Health’s
mission”
This coming year, I think we will
have another role that may be just as
important, if not more, and that is to
help educate our community about
how to better access care and how to
improve their overall health. Basically,
we need to move the emphasis in this
country (not just this community)
from curing disease to preventing it
from happening altogether.
• Barton Health offers numerous
wellness
and
informational
seminars that are free and open to
the public.
• Barton Health recently doubled
the size of the Barton Community
Health Center to better serve Lake
Tahoe residents and surrounding
areas.
The most affordable healthcare
program available today is prevention
and early detection. As the new
Chairman of the Barton Foundation, I
am committing myself to getting this
message out to the community. I look
forward to working toward achieving
our mission “inspiring philanthropy
for the health of our community”.
Sincerely,
Bob Heffernan
Chairman
Barton Foundation
Affordable Care Act
Ready or Not, Here it Comes
You can hardly listen to the radio, read
a newspaper, or turn on the television
without hearing something about
healthcare reform. Since October 1st
when Covered California and Nevada
Health Link launched, we’ve heard a
whole lot more.
2.The new law is not meant to replace
While we may be inundated with media
about the Affordable Care Act (aka
ObamaCare) how many of us actually
know what this means to our healthcare
coverage? Well, at Barton, we spend a
lot of time dissecting the legislation
and trying to figure out just what it
means for our community and how we
can help you to navigate the system.
We’ve attempted to give you a quick
primer on the law (we couldn’t possibly
include every detail of the 10,0000+
page document here) and how Barton
is helping our community navigate the
new system.
3.The Individual Mandate. We’ve all
1.Everyone
is affected by the
Affordable Care Act because it
establishes new consumer protections
and benefits.
• Consumer protections: A ban
on lifetime limits and annual
dollar limits set by insurance
companies.
private employer-provided health
insurance or Medicare. It is really
meant to help individuals who may
be “locked out of the market” due
to high deductibles or pre-existing
conditions.
heard this one bandied about – and
yes, every American who can afford
coverage will be required to purchase
health insurance or pay a tax penalty.
The tax penalty for individuals will
start at $95 a year or up to 1% of
your income - whichever is greater
- and by 2016 rises to $695 per year
or 2.5% of your income. For a family,
the tax is capped at $285 in 2014 and
rises to more than $2000 by 2016.
There are exceptions to the law too.
For instance, if you will be spending
more than 8% of your income on the
cheapest qualifying insurance plan
after tax credits and subsidies, you
are exempt.
4.New Ways to Buy and Afford
Health Insurance. Starting October
1, 2013 folks can shop for insurance via
online health insurance marketplaces
also known as “exchanges”. In
California the program is known as
Covered California and in Nevada it
is the Nevada Health Link. The great
thing about the state-based exchanges
is that they offer you a single “door” to
shop for insurance, get side-by-side
comparisons of the different offerings,
and if you qualify, you may also
receive a tax credit or enroll in MediCal (California’s Medicaid). The
exchanges are meant to increase ease
of use and expand health insurance to
those that might previously have not
been able to afford health insurance.
NOTE: You do not have to buy your
insurance through the exchange; you
can still purchase insurance on your
own directly through your broker.
Barton’s Role: Barton Health is gearing
up for reform. We have numerous
trained personnel ready to help with
enrollment. To find more information
about the plans offered by your state,
visit CoveredCA.com (1-800-300-1506)
or NevadaHealthLink.com (1-855-7685465). You can enroll in a plan on your
own or give us a call at 530-600-1984
and we will be happy to assist you.
To find general information about
the Affordable Care Act, you can visit
Barton’s website where we have the
latest and greatest information on
reform.
WHO WILL QUALIFY FOR HELP WITH INSURANCE COSTS?
• Better Benefits: The new law
also requires that all new policies
include free immunizations and
cancer screenings, well-woman
visits, screenings for gestational
diabetes and more.
• Expansion
of
coverage:
Young adults can stay on their
parents’ plan until age 26, and
in 2014 people with pre-existing
conditions can no longer be
denied coverage or charged more
for premiums.

Barton Cardiology Expands
Taking Care of Your Heart, Closer to Home
At Barton Health, we’re committed
to strengthening the hearts of our
community by offering our residents
and visitors the care that they need right
here in the Tahoe basin. Led by David
Young, MD, Barton Cardiology, located
within Barton Memorial Hospital,
offers a comprehensive approach
that addresses prevention, diagnosis,
intervention or referral, and rehabilitation.
In the last two years, Dr. Young and his
staff have built a practice of more than
2,000 patients. While many of them reside
in Lake Tahoe, others travel from western
Nevada, eastern and coastal California.
Barton Cardiology offers a variety of
services to treat coronary artery disease,
congestive heart failure, valvular heart
disease, peripheral vascular disease, high
blood pressure, cholesterol abnormalities,
pacemakers, and defibrillators.
Dr. Young grew up in San Diego, California.
He started his undergraduate education
at Ithaca College in upstate New York. In
order to be closer to his father, who owns
a home in Incline Village, he decided to
transfer to the University of Nevada, Reno
where he completed his undergraduate
and medical degrees.
After medical school, Dr. Young returned
to his home town to complete his
residency in Internal Medicine at Scripps
Clinic in La Jolla, California. He remained
there for the next several years completing
his Cardiology Fellowship. Dr. Young met
his wife, Rebecca, during residency and
the two were married in Maui in 2007.
The couple has since started their family
and are the loving parents of two beautiful
little boys, Noah and Jacob.
In 2010, the family decided to move
back to Reno, where Dr. Young joined
Sierra Nevada Cardiology Associates and
worked at Renown Health. In late 2011,
Barton Community Health Center Open for Business!
Thanks to the generosity of our community,
the Barton Community Health Center
(formerly known as the Barton Community
Clinic) officially opened its doors in June.
At double its previous size, the new offices
will easily meet the expected increased
demand for healthcare in our community
while offering our patients a space that is
clean, bright, and welcoming.
4
In addition to the physical expansion, the
Health Center is also implementing many
operational changes to better meet the
needs of our patients. The first of those is
the addition of Saturday hours. any other
changes will be rolled out in the next
few months in an effort to provide more
convenient and efficient service.
The Health Center expansion was largely
funded by donations from our community
with the Barton Auxiliary doing the heavy
lifting with a donation of more than one
million dollars and the Barton Foundation
contributing just over $180,000 to the
effort.
Dr. Young joined Barton Health, initially
only a few days a week. The practice grew
quickly and now Dr. Young sees patients
all week, providing telehealth services on
Mondays and Fridays and seeing patients
in his office Tuesday through Thursday.
Dr. Young focuses on providing quality
care to each individual patient. He wants
to build relationships and prides himself
on being approachable and friendly. In
addition to providing comprehensive
cardiac care, he has drastically improved
Barton Memorial Hospital’s ability to
manage patients having an acute cardiac
event. Under his direction, along with
the expertise of his fellow physicians
at Barton, low-risk patients are now
able to stay here for treatment. With his
knowledge, the process of transferring
high-risk cases that require a more
advanced level of cardiac care to another
facility has been greatly improved.
Barton Cardiology is the beneficiary of
the Festival of Trees & Lights this year.
With the funds raised we will expand
the cardiology division and create a more
inviting and healing environment. The
office will be completely remodeled and
solely dedicated to provide for the needs
of the Cardiology department and their
patients. New provisions will include a
telemedicine room with state-of-the-art
technology and new exam rooms with
special beds designed specifically for
cardiac patients. In addition, Barton’s long
term vision is to offer cardiac rehabilitation
facilities, so patients returning to the basin
after their cardiac procedure can undergo
a supervised recovery plan and experience
better health outcomes, right here in South
Lake Tahoe.
Quality & Service Excellence
Patient Satisfaction & Quality on the Rise
At Barton Health, we have put a major
emphasis on patient safety, quality
and experience improvements over
the last three years. This includes the
early adoption of evidence-based best
practices; performance improvements
of front-line staff; and engaged
physicians. By proactively pursuing
good catches and looking critically at
errors, Barton is learning from its past to
significantly reduce the harm to future
patients. We would like to share some
of our most recent accomplishments in
our effort to provide our community
with consistently exceptional care.
Barton Memorial Hospital recently
earned the title of most improved
hospital from the California Hospital
Engagement Network (CALHEN).
Focusing on ten clinical areas of
improvement against 174 other
hospitals in the state, Barton showed
a 75% improvement in patient safety
over the last three years, which is
35% higher than the benchmark for
California hospitals.
Barton utilizes a nationwide patient
satisfaction survey to gain feedback on
a number of patient experience factors
including communication, pain, food,
quietness, and cleanliness. The hospital
has made significant strides in patient
perception, improving from 53.4% of
patients rating Barton a 9 or 10 out of
10 in late 2009, to 78.5% of patients
rating Barton a 9 or 10 out of 10 as of
March 31, 2013. Our latest score brings
Barton into the top 17% of all hospitals
in the United States and 6.5% above
the California state average for patient
experience.
Last
year,
Barton
Memorial
Hospital once again earned the
Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of
Approval® for accreditation by
demonstrating compliance with the
Joint Commission’s national standards
for health care quality and safety in
hospitals. The accreditation award
recognizes Barton’s dedication to
continuous compliance with the
Joint Commission’s state-of-the-art
standards.
In achieving Joint Commission
accreditation, Barton has demonstrated
its commitment to the highest level of
care for its patients. Accreditation is a
voluntary process but one we believe
is important in elevating our standard
of care to instill confidence from our
community.
Barton is
making a significant
investment in quality daily and
continues to put an emphasis
on
maintaining
excellence
and
continually improving
the care we provide
to
our
patients.
Barton is proud to be
a leader in initiatives
that improve patient
care. We recognize
that, except in an
emergency, you have
a choice in who
you trust with your
health care so we
have made significant
investments in patient
satisfaction. To learn
more about our quality
measures, please visit

Barton posters tout our

Spirit of Philanthropy
Awarded to the Barton Auxiliary
This year, the Barton Foundation will
honor Barton Auxiliary with the Spirit
of Philanthropy Award. Coinciding
with the 50th anniversary of Barton
Health, this award signifies the
many ways the Barton Auxiliary had
supported Barton Health and our
community in the past half century.
7 million dollars over the last 53 years,
contributing to the purchase of an MRI
machine, CT Scanner, the remodel
of the Barton front lobby and most
recently the majority of funding for
the Barton Community Health Center.
The Spirit of Philanthropy
Award is presented each year
to an outstanding individual or
family that has demonstrated
extraordinary dedication to the
health of the South Lake Tahoe
community and to Barton Health.
Since 1960, Barton Auxiliary has
supported Barton Health patients
and staff through volunteerism,
fundraising and liaising with the
community to discover and solve our
community health challenges. The
doors to Barton Health opened three
years after the formation of the Barton
Auxiliary on November 26, 1963. The
Barton Auxiliary has raised more than
Led by President Larry Coffman, the
Auxiliary maintains a strong force
of 110 members who staff the Barton
Attic thrift store, the Barton Health
Gift Shop and Barton Health front
desk. Volunteers also aide the Skilled
Nursing Facility, ER, Public Relations
department and the Foundation.
One of the Auxiliary’s biggest fund
raisers is the Holiday Faire held
at St. Teresa’s the first Sunday in
November. Throughout the year,
Auxiliary saves and stores the best
items from the Attic to be sold to
the community. Over $10,000 will
be raised in just 6 short hours.
“What a time to be the President
of the Auxiliary. With the 50th
anniversary of the hospital, the
re-opening of the Community
Health Center and for the
Auxiliary to be honored with the
Spirit of Philanthropy award,
this has truly been our year. The
Spirit of Philanthropy Award
will be shared by all proud
Auxiliary members and will go
down as a one of the great moments
in our history,” said Coffman.
The Auxiliary will be presented with the
Spirit of Philanthropy Award at The Gala
on December 7, 2013 during the Festival of
Trees and Lights.

Listening to Our Donors
Capital Campaign Planning
This past spring the Barton Foundation
embarked on a project to better
understand what our donors think of the
work we are currently doing and possible
projects we might undertake in the future.
This information was collected via inperson interviews and a web-based survey
that we sent out to our donors.
all the findings here but we will share
with you the major takeaways:
What services do we need in our
community?
We proposed three projects to the
community to ascertain which of the
three they might be most interested in
supporting: Orthopedics, Cardiology,
or Oncology. Orthopedics garnered
the most votes, though it was closely
followed by the other two offerings.
Interestingly enough, the Foundation is
currently working on efforts to support
all three of these projects and there are
always opportunities for our donors to get
involved.
I feel the Foundation is doing great
work to improve the health of our
community.
90% either agreed or strongly agreed with
this statement.
Cardiology - You will see on page 9
that we are giving all proceeds from the
Festival and the Gala “Fund a Dream”
appeal to support this effort.
Orthopedics – Barton Health has
convened a steering committee to study
the feasibility of expanding the Tahoe
Center for Orthopedics (TCO) whether
that includes increased services, better
care coordination, or a new all-inclusive
space, that is still to be determined.
Oncology – We are currently pursuing
grants to help us to provide our local
cancer patients with complementary
services such as massage, movement
classes, psychotherapy, and nutrition. Our
intent is to minimize the stress on the
patient and their families as they embark
on this journey.
What do you think of Barton and the
Barton Foundation?
We were thrilled to hear that many of
you think we are doing a pretty great job,
but of course, there is always room for
improvement. We can’t possibly outline

This newsletter is probably our best way
of communicating to you, our supporters
and you can see that in this issue we
took your comments to heart and tried
to highlight some of our current projects.
In our February issue we plan to give you
a report on the prior year so you have a
better understanding of where our money
goes and how it grows to support our
community’s health.
Which programs are most important to
you?
46% said funds supporting Barton Health
programs and departments, most closely
followed at 25% by grants supporting
health and wellness in the community.
In addition, the Barton Foundation’s
newly updated donor walls feature
beautiful photographs by local artist
Jon Paul. The walls are just one of the
many ways that the Barton Foundation
recognizes the gifts given in support of our
community’s health.
The Foundation does a good job of
informing donors how their gifts are
used.
