TURNKEY III PROJECTS ARE FUNDED FOR UNITS UNDER THE FINAL LEASE PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR CLOSING OUT THE PROGRAM. TO SUPPORT THESE ACTIVITIES, THERE IS CONTINUED MODERNIZATION OF THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PLATFORMS. PHAS HAVE ACCESS TO WEB-BASED PLATFORMS THAT UTILIZE REAL-TIME DATA TO PROVIDE INSIGHT INTO THEIR PORTFOLIOS. PHAS CAN OBTAIN METRICS ON THEIR FUNDING LEVELS, OCCUPANCY RATES, AND THE NUMBER OF FAMILIES SERVED THROUGH RENTAL ASSISTANCE.; EXPECTED OUTCOMES: AS A RESULT OF THE ACTIVITIES PERFORMED, THIS PROGRAM IS EXPECTED TO ASSIST IN FUNDING THE OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE EXPENSES. THIS MAY INCLUDE INCREASED OCCUPANCY IN PUBLIC HOUSING, DECREASED ENERGY COSTS THROUGH REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND ENERGY PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING AND LEVERAGE FEDERAL RESOURCES.

PURPOSE: THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM PROVIDES ANNUAL GRANTS ON A FORMULA BASIS TO STATES, CITIES, AND COUNTIES TO DEVELOP VIABLE URBAN COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING DECENT HOUSING AND A SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT, AND BY EXPANDING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, PRINCIPALLY FOR LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. THE PROGRAM IS AUTHORIZED UNDER TITLE 1 OF THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974, PUBLIC LAW 93-383, AS AMENDED 42 U.S.C. 5301 ET SEQ. THE CDBG PROGRAM COVERS FOUR DISTINCT PROGRAMS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN SET OF GOVERNING REGULATIONS: CDBG ENTITLEMENT, CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII, CDBG INSULAR AREAS, AND STATE CDBG. IN THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM, HUD AWARDS GRANTS TO ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITY GRANTEES TO CARRY OUT A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES. ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITIES DEVELOP THEIR OWN PROGRAMS AND FUNDING PRIORITIES. IN THE CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII PROGRAM, THREE COUNTIES QUALIFY: HAWAII, KAUAI, AND MAUI. THE FY 2004 APPROPRIATIONS ACT REQUIRED THE GOVERNOR OF HAWAII TO DECIDE IF THE STATE WISHED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM BY JULY 31, 2004. THE STATE MADE THE DECISION NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. AS A RESULT OF THIS DECISION HUD'S HONOLULU FIELD OFFICE ADMINISTERS THE NON-ENTITLED GRANTS IN HAWAII. FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED USING A FORMULA BASED ON POPULATION, POVERTY, AND HOUSING OVERCROWDING, WITH THE POVERTY FACTOR CARRYING A DOUBLE WEIGHT. FOR THE CDBG INSULAR AREAS PROGRAM, HUD ANNUALLY ALLOCATES CDBG GRANTS TO FOUR DESIGNATED AREAS: AMERICAN SAMOA; GUAM; NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS; AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. THE FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED IN PROPORTION TO THE POPULATIONS OF THE ELIGIBLE TERRITORIES. THE PROGRAM IS ADMINISTERED BY HUD'S FIELD OFFICES IN PUERTO RICO AND HAWAII. UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES PASS THROUGH CDBG GRANTS TO UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT. ANNUALLY, EACH STATE DEVELOPS FUNDING PRIORITIES AND CRITERIA FOR SELECTING PROJECTS. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS. NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS INCLUDE THOSE UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT WHICH DO NOT RECEIVE CDBG FUNDS DIRECTLY FROM HUD. GENERALLY, NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS ARE CITIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 50,000 (EXCEPT CITIES THAT ARE DESIGNATED PRINCIPAL CITIES OF METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREAS), AND COUNTIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 200,000. CURRENT CDBG AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS LIST OF HUD COMMUNITY PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT (CPD) AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/ALLOCATIONS-AWARDS/; ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: CDBG FUNDS MAY BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES WHICH INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY; RELOCATION AND DEMOLITION; REHABILITATION OF RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES; CONSTRUCTION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS, SUCH AS WATER AND SEWER FACILITIES, STREETS, NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS, AND THE CONVERSION OF SCHOOL BUILDINGS FOR ELIGIBLE PURPOSES; PUBLIC SERVICES, WITHIN CERTAIN LIMITS; ACTIVITIES RELATING TO ENERGY CONSERVATION AND RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES; PROVISION OF ASSISTANCE TO PROFIT-MOTIVATED BUSINESSES TO CARRY OUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND JOB CREATION/RETENTION ACTIVITIES. EACH ACTIVITY MUST MEET ONE OF THE FOLLOWING NATIONAL OBJECTIVES FOR THE PROGRAM: BENEFIT LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS, PREVENTION OR ELIMINATION OF SLUMS OR BLIGHT, OR ADDRESS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT NEEDS HAVING A PARTICULAR URGENCY BECAUSE EXISTING CONDITIONS POSE A SERIOUS AND IMMEDIATE THREAT TO THE HEALTH OR WELFARE OF THE COMMUNITY FOR WHICH OTHER FUNDING IS NOT AVAILABLE. GENERALLY, THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF ACTIVITIES ARE INELIGIBLE: ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION, OR RECONSTRUCTION OF BUILDINGS FOR THE GENERAL CONDUCT OF GOVERNMENT; POLITICAL ACTIVITIES; CERTAIN INCOME PAYMENTS; CONSTRUCTION OF NEW HOUSING (WITH SOME EXCEPTIONS). UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES MAY USE $100,000 PLUS UP TO A MAXIMUM OF THREE PERCENT OF ITS CDBG ALLOCATION. AMOUNTS EXPENDED ON ADMINISTRATION IN EXCESS OF $100,000 MUST BE MATCHED. STATES MAY EXPEND UP TO THREE PERCENT OF THEIR CDBG ALLOCATION ON TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ACTIVITIES. HOWEVER, THE TOTAL A STATE SPENDS ON BOTH ADMINISTRATIVE AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE EXPENSES MAY NOT EXCEED $100,000 PLUS THREE PERCENT OF THE STATE'S ALLOCATION. CPD HAS DEVELOPED PROFILES THAT DISPLAY GRANTEE-REPORTED ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR SELECTED HOUSING, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT, AND PUBLIC SERVICE ACTIVITIES. PROFILES FOR GRANTEES WILL VARY, AS GRANTEES HAVE FLEXIBILITY IN DETERMINING THE HOUSING, ECONOMIC, AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES THEY CARRY OUT WITH CDBG FUNDS. THE MOST RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS CAN BE VIEWED WITHIN THE NATIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENT REPORTS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/PROGRAMS/CDBG/CDBG-ACCOMPLISHMENT-REPORTS/; EXPECTED OUTCOMES: THE CDBG PROGRAM REINFORCES SEVERAL IMPORTANT VALUES AND PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: PROGRAM FLEXIBILITY TO EMPOWER PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES TO DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT STRATEGIES TAILORED TO THEIR OWN NEEDS AND PRIORITIES; AN EMPHASIS ON CONSOLIDATED PLANNING THAT EXPANDS AND STRENGTHENS PARTNERSHIPS AMONG ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR IN ENHANCING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT; TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ACTIVITIES AND SET-ASIDE FOR GRANTEES TO BUILD THE CAPACITY OF THESE PARTNERS. EACH CDBG GRANTEE’S EXPECTED OUTCOMES ARE DESCRIBED AS GOALS IN THEIR CONSOLIDATED PLAN. THE MOST RECENT CONSOLIDATED PLANS CAN BE VIEWED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/REPORTS/#CONSOLIDATED-PLANS-ANNUAL-ACTION-PLANS-AND-CAPERS; INTENDED BENEFICIARIES: OVER A 1, 2, OR 3-YEAR PERIOD, AS SELECTED BY THE GRANTEE, NOT LESS THAN 70 PERCENT OF CDBG FUNDS MUST BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES THAT BENEFIT LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. HUD DOES NOT PROVIDE CDBG ASSISTANCE DIRECTLY TO INDIVIDUALS, BUSINESSES, NONPROFIT OR ORGANIZATIONS OR OTHER NON-GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES. INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING IN THIS PROGRAM, SHOULD CONTACT THEIR LOCAL MUNICIPAL OR COUNTY OFFICIALS TO FIND OUT HOW THE PROGRAM OPERATES IN THEIR COMMUNITY. PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS MAY DIFFER FROM ONE GRANTEE TO ANOTHER. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT GRANTEE ADMINISTERS THE CDBG PROGRAM AND DETERMINES WHICH LOCAL PROJECTS RECEIVE FUNDING. ELIGIBLE GRANTEES ARE AS FOLLOWS: PRINCIPAL CITIES OF METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREAS (MSAS); OTHER METROPOLITAN CITIES WITH POPULATIONS OF AT LEAST 50,000; QUALIFIED URBAN COUNTIES WITH POPULATIONS OF AT LEAST 200,000 (EXCLUDING THE POPULATION OF ENTITLED CITIES); STATES AND INSULAR AREAS. THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA IS FUNDED UNDER THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM. THE STATE OF HAWAII DOES NOT PARTICIPATE, AND HUD ALLOCATES THE STATE'S SHARE OF FUNDS TO THE THREE HAWAII NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES. THE STATES ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS.; SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES: THE SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES ARE UNKNOWN AT THE TIME OF AWARD.

PURPOSE: THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM PROVIDES ANNUAL GRANTS ON A FORMULA BASIS TO STATES, CITIES, AND COUNTIES TO DEVELOP VIABLE URBAN COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING DECENT HOUSING AND A SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT, AND BY EXPANDING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, PRINCIPALLY FOR LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. THE PROGRAM IS AUTHORIZED UNDER TITLE 1 OF THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974, PUBLIC LAW 93-383, AS AMENDED 42 U.S.C. 5301 ET SEQ. THE CDBG PROGRAM COVERS FOUR DISTINCT PROGRAMS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN SET OF GOVERNING REGULATIONS: CDBG ENTITLEMENT, CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII, CDBG INSULAR AREAS, AND STATE CDBG. IN THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM, HUD AWARDS GRANTS TO ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITY GRANTEES TO CARRY OUT A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES. ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITIES DEVELOP THEIR OWN PROGRAMS AND FUNDING PRIORITIES. IN THE CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII PROGRAM, THREE COUNTIES QUALIFY: HAWAII, KAUAI, AND MAUI. THE FY 2004 APPROPRIATIONS ACT REQUIRED THE GOVERNOR OF HAWAII TO DECIDE IF THE STATE WISHED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM BY JULY 31, 2004. THE STATE MADE THE DECISION NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. AS A RESULT OF THIS DECISION HUD'S HONOLULU FIELD OFFICE ADMINISTERS THE NON-ENTITLED GRANTS IN HAWAII. FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED USING A FORMULA BASED ON POPULATION, POVERTY, AND HOUSING OVERCROWDING, WITH THE POVERTY FACTOR CARRYING A DOUBLE WEIGHT. FOR THE CDBG INSULAR AREAS PROGRAM, HUD ANNUALLY ALLOCATES CDBG GRANTS TO FOUR DESIGNATED AREAS: AMERICAN SAMOA; GUAM; NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS; AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS.

PRIMARY CARE TRAINING AND ENHANCEMENT -- RESIDENCY TRAINING IN STREET MEDICINE - ST. LUKE’S UNIVERSITY HEALTH NETWORK (SLUHN), APPLYING AS ST. LUKE’S HOSPITAL, SEEKS FUNDING THROUGH THE PCTE-RTSM INITIATIVE TO EXPAND AND ENHANCE ONE OF ITS FIVE PRIMARY CARE RESIDENCY TRAINING PROGRAMS, THE RURAL FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENCY TRAINING PROGRAM BY DEVELOPING A STREET MEDICINE ACADEMIC TRACK. THE INITIATIVE AIMS TO BRIDGE GAPS IN RESIDENCY EDUCATION BY ENSURING FUTURE PHYSICIANS ARE WELL-PREPARED TO SERVE MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS IN RURAL CARBON AND SCHUYLKILL COUNTIES. TRADITIONAL FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENCY PROGRAMS, INCLUDING SLUHN’S, LACK STRUCTURED TRAINING IN STREET MEDICINE, LEAVING RESIDENTS UNDERPREPARED TO CARE FOR INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. MOST CURRICULA FOCUS ON IN-CLINIC PATIENT CARE, LIMITING RESIDENTS’ EXPOSURE TO INTERDISCIPLINARY LEARNING AND NON-TRADITIONAL SETTINGS. THE DEMAND FOR PHYSICIANS TRAINED IN STREET MEDICINE IS INCREASING. ACCORDING TO THE 2024 POINT-IN-TIME (PIT) COUNT, HOMELESSNESS IN PENNSYLVANIA HAS INCREASED BY 11% OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS. CARBON AND SCHUYLKILL COUNTIES EXPERIENCE HIGH RATES OF CHRONIC DISEASE, MENTAL ILLNESS, AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS (SUDS) AMONG INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. CARBON COUNTY’S OPIOID OVERDOSE DEATH RATE (56.6 PER 100,000) EXCEEDS BOTH STATE (35.8) AND NATIONAL (24.7) AVERAGES, HIGHLIGHTING THE URGENT NEED FOR ADDICTION MEDICINE EXPERTISE IN PRIMARY CARE. MANY INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS CYCLE BETWEEN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS (EDS), SHELTERS, AND INCARCERATION, EXACERBATING POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES, HIGH MORTALITY RATES, AND HEALTHCARE COSTS. THIS INITIATIVE WILL IMPLEMENT A STREET MEDICINE ACADEMIC TRACK WITHIN SLUHN’S RURAL FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENCY PROGRAM, EQUIPPING RESIDENTS WITH SPECIALIZED TRAINING TO PROVIDE HEALTHCARE FOR INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. THE PROGRAM WILL ENHANCE RESIDENCY EDUCATION BY INCORPORATING STRUCTURED CLINICAL ROTATIONS IN SHELTERS, MOBILE OUTREACH UNITS, AND TELEMEDICINE SERVICES, ENSURING THAT RESIDENTS GAIN HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE IN DELIVERING CARE IN NON-TRADITIONAL SETTINGS. ADDITIONALLY, THE PROJECT WILL EXPAND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND ADDICTION MEDICINE TRAINING BY INTEGRATING TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE, HARM REDUCTION STRATEGIES, AND MEDICATION FOR OPIOID USE DISORDER (MOUD) PROTOCOLS, ADDRESSING THE HIGH RATES OF SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS AND MENTAL ILLNESS AMONG THE HOMELESS POPULATION. TO FURTHER SUPPORT UNDERSTANDING OF THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH AFFECTING THIS POPULATION, THE INITIATIVE WILL ESTABLISH MEDICAL-LEGAL PARTNERSHIPS (MLPS) TO TRAIN RESIDENTS IN LEGAL ADVOCACY, ASSISTING PATIENTS WITH SECURING MEDICAID, DISABILITY BENEFITS, AND HOUSING STABILITY SERVICES. CULTURAL COMPETENCY WILL ALSO BE A KEY FOCUS, WITH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF MEDICAL SPANISH TRAINING AND NATIONAL CULTURALLY AND LINGUISTICALLY APPROPRIATE SERVICES (CLAS)-BASED STRATEGIES, ENSURING EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION WITH DIVERSE PATIENT POPULATIONS. ADDITIONALLY, THE PROJECT WILL STRENGTHEN INTERPROFESSIONAL COLLABORATION BY ENGAGING RESIDENTS IN INTERDISCIPLINARY TRAINING ALONGSIDE EMERGENCY MEDICAL TECHNICIANS (EMTS), SOCIAL WORKERS, ADDICTION SPECIALISTS, AND LEGAL PROFESSIONALS, FOSTERING A TEAM-BASED APPROACH TO HEALTHCARE DELIVERY. THE PRIMARY BENEFICIARIES OF THE PCTE-RTSM INITIATIVE AT SLUHN WILL BE THE MEDICAL RESIDENTS IN THE RURAL FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENCY PROGRAM, AS IT INTEGRATES A STREET MEDICINE ACADEMIC TRACK INTO THEIR TRAINING. SLUHN REQUESTS RURAL FUNDING PRIORITY POINTS FOR ITS FOCUS ON EXPANDING THE RURAL PRIMARY CARE WORKFORCE AND IMPROVING HEALTHCARE ACCESS IN CARBON AND SCHUYLKILL COUNTIES. ADDITIONALLY, IT SEEKS FUNDING PREFERENCE FOR DEMONSTRATING A 25-PERCENTAGE POINT INCREASE IN PLACING PROGRAM GRADUATES INTO PRACTICE SETTINGS THAT SERVE MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES (MUCS) FROM AY 2022–2023 TO AY 2023–2024.

COMMUNITY PROJECT FUNDING/CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING - CONSTRUCTION - ST. LUKE’S HOSPITAL - QUAKERTOWN CAMPUS WILL EXPAND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES AND INCREASE CAPACITY FROM 19 TO 32 BEDS BY RENOVATING THE ADULT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH UNIT AND PURCHASING MOVEABLE, SAFE / ANTI-LIGATURE FIXTURES, FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT IN BUCKS COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. THE PROJECT IS BASED ON OVER 150 YEARS’ EXPERIENCE OF MEETING COMMUNITY NEEDS AND PROVIDING CARE TO THE TARGET BEHAVIORAL HEALTH POPULATION. INCREASED USE OF SUBSTANCES, INCLUDING OPIOIDS, FOR THOSE MANAGING STRESS AND ANXIETY HAVE BEEN ON THE RISE THROUGHOUT THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. “THE ONGOING STRESS AND UNCERTAINTY OF COVID-19 HAVE LED TO INCREASED DEMAND FOR MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES FROM PSYCHOLOGISTS IN THE UNITED STATES—BUT CONDITIONS LIKE ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION AREN’T THE ONLY MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES PEOPLE ARE FACING. EXPERTS SAY MISUSE OF OPIOIDS AND STIMULANTS IS ALSO ON THE RISE—AND PSYCHOLOGISTS ARE IN A GOOD POSITION TO HELP. ACCORDING TO THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, AS OF JUNE 2020, 13% OF AMERICANS REPORTED STARTING OR INCREASING SUBSTANCE USE AS A WAY OF COPING WITH STRESS OR EMOTIONS RELATED TO COVID-19. OVERDOSES HAVE ALSO SPIKED SINCE THE ONSET OF THE PANDEMIC. A REPORTING SYSTEM CALLED ODMAP (OVERDOSE MAPPING DETECTION APPLICATION PROGRAM) SHOWS THAT THE EARLY MONTHS OF THE PANDEMIC BROUGHT AN 18% INCREASE NATIONWIDE IN OVERDOSES COMPARED WITH THOSE SAME MONTHS IN 2019. THE TREND HAS CONTINUED THROUGHOUT 2020, ACCORDING TO THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, WHICH REPORTED IN DECEMBER THAT MORE THAN 40 U.S. STATES HAVE SEEN INCREASES IN OPIOID-RELATED MORTALITY ALONG WITH ONGOING CONCERNS FOR THOSE WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS.” ST. LUKE’S QUAKERTOWN CAMPUS IS WITNESSING THIS CONCERNING TREND THROUGHOUT THE REGION WE SERVE IN PENNSYLVANIA. HAVING AN EXPANDED INPATIENT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH UNIT IN BUCKS COUNTY IS A CRITICAL NEED FOR OUR REGION. AS WE CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE AND WITNESS SIGNIFICANT RISING DEMAND FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SUBS TANCE USE DISORDERS, THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH BEDS AND RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO TREAT THOSE IN NEED. IN FISCAL YEAR 2020 (PRE-PANDEMIC), THERE WERE APPROXIMATELY 4,400 BUCKS COUNTY RESIDENTS ADMITTED FOR INPATIENT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. OF THOSE, ONLY ABOUT 150 WERE ADMITTED TO THE QUAKERTOWN CAMPUS BEHAVIORAL HEALTH UNIT DUE TO SPACE CONSTRAINTS. THE VAST MAJORITY OF THESE BUCKS COUNTY RESIDENTS WERE SENT OUT OF THE COUNTY FOR CARE WHICH ADVERSELY IMPACTS FAMILY INVOLVEMENT AND CONTINUITY OF CARE. THERE ARE CURRENTLY ONLY TWO ADULT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH UNITS (INCLUDING ST. LUKE’S QUAKERTOWN) IN BUCKS COUNTY TOTALING 46 LICENSED BEDS. THIS RANKS BUCKS COUNTY NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE STATE FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH BEDS PER COUNTY RESIDENT. FURTHER, MUCH NEEDED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE IS OFTEN A DIFFICULT SERVICE TO OBTAIN DUE TO FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS. PATIENT INSURANCE COVERAGE BECOMES A BARRIER TO PLACEMENT AS SOME BEHAVIORAL HEALTH FACILITIES PRIORITIZE PATIENTS WITH PRIVATE INSURANCE OVER MEDICAID DUE TO HIGHER REIMBURSEMENT RATES. AT ST. LUKE’S, WE TREAT ALL PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY, OFTEN STRUGGLING TO BREAKEVEN FOR THE CARE PROVIDED.
