2006 was a banner year for University Health Care System and one of the most exciting in our history.We set our goals high and still reached or exceeded every single one. In fact, we reached an all timehigh, reinforcing our distinction as a health care leader both locally and regionally in clinical quality,patient satisfaction and financial performance.

At University we believe that exceptional financial performance is all about doing things right for ourpatients. For example we are seeing a direct correlation between clinical quality and our financialindicators. Bottom line — if you do the right thing at the right time for every single patient, the endproduct is reduced cost and increased patient satisfaction. It sounds simple, but in reality it takes anincredibly talented team of dedicated professionals who share our vision to be the very best we can be.

I am delighted to share with you our 2006 Community Benefit Report. This publication will give you asnapshot of the many initiatives that helped us achieve an unprecedented level of success. And it willspotlight some of the programs and outreach support that are possible because of our success.

We consider it a privilege to be a part of an organization that has served this community for 188 years.As you read this report, I hope you take pride in the efforts your community hospital has undertaken toremain strong for the generations to come.

Growing Philanthropic Support

2006 Community Benef i t Report

University Health Care Foundation is a not-for-profit charitable organization whose purpose is toraise funds to support the hospital’s mission.Since its founding in 1977, the Foundation hasworked hand-in-hand with University Health CareSystem to identify and meet the special needs ofpatients through philanthropy. At the end of2006, the Foundation was bringing to a close itscapital fundraising campaign to supportUniversity’s renovation and expansion project.Under the leadership of a special CapitalCampaign Committee, they expect to surpasstheir original $7 million goal. This is the largestcapital fundraising effort in the history of thehospital and the city of Augusta.

Although the campaign’s volunteer leaders, Mr. andMrs. Wyck A. Knox Jr. and Dr. and Mrs. RandolphR. Smith, concluded their active participation in2006, the capital campaign will continue into 2007and has a substantial opportunity to reach a "stretchgoal" of $8 million.

There were several leadership gifts that set thestage for this campaign to be more successful thanoriginally anticipated. These came from:• The estate of Frank S. Dennis Jr. through his children• The Knox families of Thomson and Augusta• The Volunteer Board of University Health• University Health Care System Employees• Augusta Plastic Surgery Associates• Cardiovascular Associates of Augusta• Corporate donors including Wachovia Bank,

Suntrust Bank of Augusta, Georgia Bank &

Trust, Queensborough National Bank & Trustand Bank of America.

In addition to a tremendously successful capitalcampaign, the Foundation’s signature events andongoing projects continued to flourish. These included:

• Tree of Love. The 13th Annual Tree of LoveCampaign was the most successful year ever.University Health Care Foundation partnered witharea banks, the Volunteer Board of University Health,Chick-fil-A at Augusta Exchange, SRP Federal CreditUnion and FireHouse Subs to raise almost $59,000.The campaign supports three children’s programs –Whispering Wind Academy, Camp Juliet andUniversity Hospital’s Speech and Hearing Center.

• Tee it Up for Children with Diabetes. TheFoundation partnered with Kroger Stores forthe third year to sponsor this campaign, raisingnearly $3,500 for children with diabetes.

• Camp Juliet. University’s camp for children 6-17 withdiabetes received a special treat this year – theywere visited by Will Cross, the only mountainclimber with diabetes to conquer Mount Everest.This year, more than half of the campers weredependent on insulin pumps, which probably woulddisqualify them from being able to attend any othercamps. The record number of 43 campers spent thelong weekend at Camp Daniel Marshall inLincolnton, Ga., learning how to manage theirdiabetes while boating, swimming and taking partin a whole host of typical camp activities.

• The first 1818 Society event to honor theFoundation’s most generous donors was held atSacred Heart Cultural Center. The 19th century-

themed celebration featured period costumesand horse-drawn carriage rides.

The Volunteer Board of University Healthcontinues to be a generous source of philanthropyto support patient services. In addition to theirfinancial support, our Volunteers visit new mothersthrough the Born to Read program, distributingchildren’s books and information packets andstressing the importance of reading to babiesfrom birth throughout their childhood.

Framing the Future

2006 Community Benef i t Report

In May, more than 200 legislators, communityleaders, physicians and staff gathered to breakground on our $93.5 million renovation andexpansion project, the largest in the history of thehospital and one of the largest in the history ofdowntown Augusta. The project includes thefollowing:

• A four-story, 199,000-square-foot CardiovascularCenter that will consolidate all state-of-the-artcardiovascular diagnostic and treatment servicestogether under one roof.

• 72 Universal Patient Rooms where trained staffcan care for patients at all levels in theirrecovery

• A dedicated Outpatient Center that will allowpatients to register for and receive outpatientservices in a one-stop center with its ownparking area

• A redesigned and enhanced Surgical Unit toaccommodate robotics and other emergingtechnologies, along with a dedicated SurgicalWaiting Room for family members

Over the Labor Day weekend, the staff ofCardiopulmonary Rehab moved to their newtemporary location on the fifth floor of thehospital’s Visitor Parking Deck, allowing demolition

and site preparation for our new CardiovascularCenter to get under way.

The 21-bed Observation Stay Unit opened in 2006as a centralized setting for medical and surgicalpatients who, based on certain criteria, requireshort-term treatment and/or diagnostic evaluationfor less than 24 hours.

In August, University Health Services Boardapproved an internal transaction that paved the wayfor a limited liability joint venture between HealthResources and a group of private physicians thatreopened the Day Surgery Center Evans as SurgeryCenter of Columbia County. This change andrenewed focus should bring a more consistent use ofthe facility, which is good news for Columbia Countyresidents who may prefer to have their outpatientsurgeries closer to home.

Columbia County leaders helped celebrate the latestaddition to University’s Evans Campus at agroundbreaking for our $13.4 million project that willinclude our fourth medical office building, a state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging center and ColumbiaCounty’s first parking structure. This campus willcontinue to grow not only as a health care resourcefor Columbia County, but as a community partnerdedicated to meeting the increasing health careneeds of this rapidly growing area.

Reductions in reimbursement, an aging patientpopulation, staffing shortages and the high cost ofmedical technology have strained many health careorganizations beyond repair. Fortunately, Universityhas fared much better than most hospitals in thisdifficult climate. Through sound management,attention to detail and an unwavering commitmentto cost-effective quality, University ended 2006 withunprecedented strength.

Before going to the bond market to pursuepartial funding for our renovation and expansionproject, University Health Care System decided toseek a financial rating. This process included anextensive review of our organization to includeeverything from cash on hand and financialindicators to clinical quality and market share.Announcement that we had received an A1 ratingfrom Moody’s Investor Services and an A+ fromStandard and Poors was attributed to University’sstrong operating and financial performance.

It’s sometimes difficult to understand whatdifferentiates a not-for-profit hospital and the manyways a community benefits from its existence andmore importantly its success. But unlike a for-profitorganization that exists to serve its stockholders, anot-for-profit community hospital such as Universityexists solely to serve the community. And becauseUniversity has managed its resources in a mannerthat generates revenue in excess of expenses,University has resources that can be reinvestedback into its facilities, equipment, people andcommunity outreach programs such as thoseoutlined in this report.

University had the best year in its history and thisreflects not only strong financial management, butalso growth in consumer preference, increasedmarket share, enhanced clinical quality andimproved patient satisfaction.
