Independent Auditor’s Report
Board of Trustees
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority
Cleveland, Oklahoma
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority
(Authority), a component unit of the City of Cleveland, Oklahoma, which comprise the statements of net
position as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related statements of revenues, expenses, and
changes in net position and statements of cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to
the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Authority’s basic financial statements.
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 an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. 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
Authority’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 Authority’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.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinion.

Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority, a component unit of the City of Cleveland,
Oklahoma, as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations, changes in net position,
and cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Authority will continue as
a going concern. As discussed in Note 14 to the financial statements, the Authority has suffered recurring
loss from operations and has a net deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note
14. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.
Correction of Errors
As discussed in Note 13 to the financial statements, errors resulting in an understatement of capital
assets, understatement of estimated third party payor settlement lability, understatement of long-term
debt, overstatement of net patient service revenue, understatement of depreciation expense,
overstatement of other expenses, understatement of interest expense, overstatement of net position,
understatement of cash flows used for operating activities, and understatement of cash flows used for
capital and related financing activities were discovered by management of the Authority during the
current year. Accordingly, the 2018 financial statements have been restated for the error corrections.
Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s
discussion and analysis on pages 3 through 10 be presented to supplement the basic financial
statements. Such information, although not a 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 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 audit 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 Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated July 21, 2020
on our consideration of the Authority’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other
matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over
financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Authority’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is
an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering
the Authority’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Introduction
The discussion and analysis of the financial performance for Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority (Authority)
provides an overview of the Authority’s financial activities and balances as of and for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. The intent of this discussion and analysis is to provide further information
on the Authority’s performance as a whole; readers should also review the basic financial statements and the
notes thereto to enhance their understanding of the Authority’s financial status.
Financial Highlights
• Total Operating Revenue increased in 2019 by $1.5M or 11% and increased in 2018 by $0.7M or 6%.
• Total assets increased in 2019 by $2.1M or 32% and decreased in 2018 by $0.9M or 12%.
o In 2019, accounts receivable increased $0.6M, driven by a 26% increase in census and
implementation of a new Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system (short-term increases in
patient receivables are expected with system conversions).
• Total liabilities increased in 2019 by $2.9M or 46% and decreased in 2019 by $0.8M or 12%.
o In 2019, $0.5M of this increase was related to EMR implementation costs.
• The Authority reported an operating loss of $1M in 2019 and $0.3M in 2018.
Using This Annual Report
The Authority’s financial statements consist of three statements – Statement of Net Position, Statement of
Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and Statement of Cash Flows. These financial statements and
related notes provide information about the activities of the Authority including resources held by the Authority
but restricted for specific purposes by contributors, grantors, or enabling legislation. The Authority is accounted
for as a business-type activity and presents its financial statements using the economic resources measurement
focus and the accrual basis of accounting.
The Statement of Net Position and Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position
One of the most important questions asked about the Authority’s finances is, “Is the Authority as a whole better
or worse off because of the year’s activities?” The Statements of Net Position and the Statements of Revenues,
Expenses, and Changes in Net Position reports information about the Authority resources and its activities in a
way that helps answer this question. These Statements include all restricted and unrestricted assets and all
liabilities using the accrual basis of accounting. All the current year’s revenues and expenses are taken into
account regardless of when cash is received or paid.
These two statements report the Authority’s net position and changes in them. You can think of the Authority’s
net position – the difference between assets and liabilities – as one way to measure the Authority’s financial
health, or financial position. Over time, increases in the Authority’s net position are one indicator of whether its
financial health is improving or deteriorating. The reader will need to consider other nonfinancial factors, such
as changes in the Authority’s patient base and measures of the quality of services it provides the community, as
well as local economic factors to assess the overall health of the Authority.

Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Management’s Discussion and Analysis
The Statement of Cash Flows
The final required statement is the statement of cash flows. The statement reports cash receipts, cash
payments, and net changes in cash resulting from operations, investing and financing activities. It provides
answers to such questions as where did cash come from, what was cash used for and what was the change in
cash balance during the reporting period.
The Authority’s Net Position
The Authority’s net position is the difference between its assets and liabilities reported in the statement of net
position. The Authority’s net position decreased by $0.8M or 228% in 2019 and $0.1M or 18% in 2018 as shown
below in Table 1.
Table 1: Assets, Liabilities and Net Position 2019 2018 2017

Total liabilities and net position (deficit) 8,882,588$ 6,737,460$ 7,652,000$
A significant component of the change in the Authority’s assets, liabilities, and net position is the change in cash,
patient receivables, capital assets, long-term debt, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. Cash and cash
equivalents increased $0.2M or 45% in 2019 and decreased $0.2M or 29% in 2018. Patient receivables increased
$0.6M or 46% in 2019 and increased $0.3M or 23% in 2018. Capital assets increased $1.2M or 27% in 2019 and
decreased $0.4M or 7% in 2018. Long-term debt increased $1.2M or 30% in 2019 and decreased $0.4M or 9% in
2018. Accounts payable increased $0.4M or 80% in 2019 and decreased $0.2M or 22% in 2018. Accrued
expenses increased $0.5M or 66% in 2019 and increased $0.3M or 44% in 2018.

Net Position (Deficit), End of Year (443,557)$ 346,169$ 422,706$
Operating Results
The first component of the overall change in the Authority’s net position is its operating results. Generally, the
operating income or loss is the difference between net patient service and other operating revenues and the
expenses incurred to perform those services. The Authority had an operating loss of $1.0M in 2019.
• Net patient service revenue increased $1.6M or 13% in 2019 due to an increase of 26% in the average
daily census for the hospital, and an increase of 24% in patient visits in the Clinic. Net patient service
revenue increased $0.8M or 6% in 2018, due to an increase of 5% in the average daily census for the
hospital, and an increase of 51% in patient visits in the Clinic.
6
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Management’s Discussion and Analysis
• Salaries, wages, and employee benefits increased $1.5M or 16% in 2019 due to increased provider time
in the clinic, the addition of 24/7 respiratory therapy in the hospital, additional FTE in Access, Dietary
and Radiology to support patient volume, and a 13% increase in the cost of employee benefits primarily
driven by increased health insurance cost. Salaries, wages, and employee benefits increased $1.0M or
13% in 2018.
Nonoperating Revenues and Expenses
Nonoperating revenues and expenses consist primarily of city appropriations and interest expense. City
appropriations decreased $26K or 5% in 2019 and increased $0.1M or 24% in 2018. Interest expense increased
$30K or 9% in 2019 and increased $43K or 14% in 2018.
The Authority’s Cash Flows
The Authority’s overall liquidity increased during the year with an increase to cash and cash equivalents of
$0.2M or 45% in 2019 and decreased $0.2M or 29% in 2018. Cash flows from operating activities increased by
$0.6M or 1,115% during 2019 and decreased by $0.5M or 90% during 2018. This was due primarily to the
increase in receipts from and on behalf of patients during 2019. Cash used for capital and capital related
financing activities increased by $0.3M or 60% in 2019 and decreased by $32K or 6% during 2018. Cash from
noncapital financing activities increased by $72K or 29% in 2019 and decreased by $0.1M or 21% during 2018.
Cash from investing activities increased by $1K or 67% in 2019 and decreased by $1K or 33% in 2018.
Capital Assets
At the end of 2019, the Authority had $5.8M invested in capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, as
detailed in Note 4 to the financial statements. In 2019, the Authority purchased new capital assets costing
$1.8M. New equipment acquired in 2019 included 3D Mammography, Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system,
Boiler/Chiller, Vitals machines, Lab equipment, and a new emergency department EKG. At the end of 2018, the
Authority had $4.6M invested in capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation. In 2018, the Authority
purchased new capital assets costing $0.1M.
Debt
The Authority had $6.4M in notes payable, capital leases and Medicare extended repayments at the end of 2019
and $4.5M at the end of 2018, as detailed in Note 6 to the financial statements. The Authority incurred $2.8M
for capital leases and Medicare extended repayments during the year ending December 31, 2019. The Authority
incurred $0.5M for Medicare extended repayments for the year ending December 31, 2018.

Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Going Concern
Management’s response is in compliance with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Codification
Section 2250: Additional Financial Reporting Considerations, which requires that when there are conditions or
events that raise substantial doubt about the Authority’s ability to continue as a going concern, for a reasonable
period of time, management must disclose:
• Conditions or events that raised substantial doubt
• Management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events
• Management’s plans that alleviate substantial doubt
‘Reasonable period of time’ is defined as one year beyond the financial statement date.
Conditions or Events that raised substantial doubt
• The expenses in excess of revenues of $0.8M in 2019 resulting in a net deficit of ($0.4M)
• COVID-19 pandemic in 2020
Managements Evaluation of the significance of those events
The expenses in excess of revenues of $0.8M in 2019 resulting in a net deficit of ($0.4M) – In June of 2018,
management recommended, and the Board approved, an EMR conversion. Limitations on the previous EMR
created significant risk for the Authority, with regard to both the Medicare Cost Report and the financial
statements. As a result, taking on the financial burden of an EMR conversion was considered necessary for the
long-term health of the Authority. The new EMR Go-Live occurred June 2019. The duplication of software
expenses for 6 months and the new EMR consulting/travel expenses during the conversion process contributed
an unfavorable expense of $0.5M to 2019. The expense burden incurred in 2019 for the system conversion is
not an ongoing issue.
COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 – The uncertainty of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has also contributed the
Authority’s ability to continue as a going concern. Patient volumes in all areas of the organization declined
materially during March through May of 2020. As of June 2020, patient volumes have returned to pre-COVID-19
levels.
Overall – A material favorable change in organization management occurred in early 2015, and both the clinical
and financial performance of the Authority has been on a consistent upward trend for 4 years. Average year-
over-year revenue growth from 2015 through 2019 is 7.8%.
8
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Notes on Revenue Trend Table, Net Revenue Graph, Net Income Graph
• The Authority has improved Net Equity $0.9M over the past 5 years.
• Improvement has been organic, without any infusion of capital to support the growth of the
organization.
• The Authority has purchased $1M in new medical equipment (CT, 3D Mammography, Digital X-Ray) over
the past 3 years, enabling quality of care to move forward a decade.
• Monthly patient volume in the Clinic has increased over 100% from 2017 to 2020.
• The average daily census has increased 100% from 2015 to 2020.

Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Management’s Plans that Alleviate Substantial Doubt
The current Board of Trustees, the management team, and the staff have successfully executed a significant
cultural and financial turnaround, over the past five years. The documented Strategic Vision of the Authority
includes:
• Preserve organizational culture and stability
• Expand primary care clinics
• Cultivate partnerships with larger health systems
• Increase financial sustainability
• Develop workforce with training and recruiting
• Pursue facility expansion and replacement
• Expand services
The Authority has achieved progress and success in all of the seven elements of the Strategic Vision, and is in
focused pursuit of expanding services, the construction of a surgery facility, the construction of Primary Care
Rural Health Clinics in surrounding communities, and the long-term pursuit of new construction for the core
hospital facility.
Initiatives Scheduled for Fiscal Year 2020
• Strategic review of payer contracts and patient receivables turnover, to increase payer yields and
current cash flow.
• Debt refinancing to improve cash flow and support feasibility study for construction of surgery facility.
• Filing of 2020 interim Medicare cost report, as 2020 volume, payer mix and expenses as of May YTD are
showing a balance of $0.9M due from Medicare.
• Submission of a second USDA grant request to secure additional capital.
• Continued focus becoming a Regional Healthcare Center, allied with larger health systems.
Conclusion
We must point to the rapid turnaround of both the financial stability and the culture of the Authority. The
Authority continues to improve. From Management’s perspective, the plans noted above will alleviate the
substantial doubt. This confidence is supported by:
1) Positive trajectory of financial statements from 2015 to 2019.
2) Measurable improvements from 2015 include favorable increases in Revenue, a favorable increase in
net position, a favorable decrease in accounts payable, and favorable increases in patient volumes.
3) Stability and commitment of management team over the past five years.
4) Material, significant investments and improvements implemented in 2016-2020. Full replacement of IT
and Phone infrastructure in 2017. Replacement of 100% of computer workstations and laptops in 2017.
64-slice CT, digital X-Ray in 2018. 3D Mammography and EMR in 2019. Portable digital X-Ray in the first
half of 2020.
5) 2018 – successful recruiting of 2 full-time physicians and 1 physician assistant in the Clinic.
6) 2019 – successful recruiting of a medical director for the Emergency Department.
10
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Management’s Discussion and Analysis
7) Paycheck Protection Program funding received, which offsets the negative impact of impaired patient
volume during March through May of 2020, in parallel with the COVID-19 pandemic.
8) CARES Act Stimulus funding received, which offsets the negative impact of impaired patient volume
during March through May of 2020, in parallel with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
Note 1 - Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
The financial statements of the Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority (Authority) have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental
accounting and financial reporting principles. The significant accounting and reporting policies and practices
used by the Authority are described below.
Reporting Entity
The Authority was created under a trust indenture dated November 22, 1976, as a public trust under provisions
of Title 60 of the Oklahoma Statutes for the benefit of the citizens of Cleveland, Oklahoma. The Authority is
organized as a political subdivision of the state of Oklahoma and has been recognized by the Internal Revenue
Service as exempt from federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(a). The Authority is a
component unit of the City of Cleveland, Oklahoma (the City), and the Cleveland City Council appoints the board
members of the Authority.
The Authority operates Cleveland Area Hospital Holdings, Inc. (Hospital). The Hospital is a 14-bed critical access
hospital (CAH) located in Cleveland, Oklahoma. The Authority board members appoint the board members of
the Hospital. The Hospital primarily earns revenue by providing inpatient, outpatient, and emergency care
services to patients in Cleveland, Oklahoma, and the surrounding area.
Blended Component Unit
The Hospital is an Oklahoma non-profit corporation and has been recognized by the Internal Revenue Service
as exempt from federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). The Hospital is included
as a blended component unit of the Authority. The financial statements include the financial activity of the
Authority and the Hospital, collectively referred to as the Authority.
Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the
financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made, regardless of the
measurement focus applied.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Revenues are recognized when
earned, and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred.
17
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
Basis of Presentation
The statement of net position displays the Authority’s assets and liabilities with the difference reported as net
position. Net position is reported in the following components:
Net investment in capital assets consists of net capital assets reduced by the outstanding balances of
any related debt obligations attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvement of those
assets.
Restricted net position:
Expendable – Expendable net position results when constraints placed on net position are either
externally imposed or imposed through enabling legislation. The Authority does not have
expendable restricted net position as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Nonexpendable – Nonexpendable net position is subject to externally imposed stipulations
which require them to be maintained permanently by the Authority. The Authority does not
have nonexpendable restricted net position as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Unrestricted net position consists of net position not meeting the definition of the preceding categories.
Unrestricted net position often has constraints on resources imposed by management which can be
removed or modified.
When an expense is incurred that can be paid using either restricted or unrestricted resources (net position), the
Authority’s policy is to first apply the expense toward the most restrictive resources and then toward
unrestricted resources.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in
the near term. The net patient service revenue for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 increased
approximately $21,000 and $271,000 as a result of increased payments compared to originally estimated
amounts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
18
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
Patient Receivables
Patient receivables are uncollateralized customer and third-party payor obligations. Patient receivables,
excluding amounts due from third-party payors, are turned over to a collection agency if the receivables remain
unpaid after the Authority’s collections procedures. The Authority does not charge interest on the unpaid
patient receivables. Payments of patient receivables are allocated to the specific claims identified on the
remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid claim.
The carrying amount of patient receivables is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects management’s
estimate of amounts that will not be collected from patients and third-party payors. Management reviews
patient receivables by payor class and applies percentages to determine estimated amounts that will not be
collected from third parties under contractual agreements and amounts that will not be collected from patients
due to bad debts. Management considers historical write off and recovery information in determining the
estimated bad debt provision.
City Appropriations
Effective January 27, 1978, the citizens of the City approved a 1% sales tax with no expiration date to provide
unrestricted appropriations to the Authority. The Authority received approximately 4% of its financial support
from city appropriations related to sales taxes during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. These
funds were used to support operations and make payments on long-term debt.
Supplies
Supplies are stated at lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and are expensed when used.
Investment Income
Interest, dividends, gains and losses, both realized and unrealized, on investments and deposits are included in
nonoperating revenues when earned.
Capital Assets
Capital asset acquisitions in excess of $5,000 are capitalized and recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over
the estimated useful life of each depreciable asset and is computed using the straight-line method. Equipment
under capital lease obligations is amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter period of the lease
term or the estimated useful life of the equipment. Amortization is included in depreciation and amortization in
the financial statements. The estimated useful lives of capital assets are as follows:
Land improvements 5-40 yearsBuildings and improvements 5-40 yearsEquipment 3-20 years
19
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
Gifts of long-lived assets such as land, buildings, or equipment are reported as additions to unrestricted net
position, and are excluded from expenses in excess of revenues. Gifts of long-lived assets with explicit
restrictions that specify how the assets are to be used and gifts of cash or other assets that must be used to
acquire long-lived assets are reported as restricted net position.
Compensated Absences
The Authority's employees earn paid time-off days at varying rates depending on years of service. Employees
may accumulate paid time-off up to a specified maximum. Employees are paid for accumulated paid time-off
upon termination. The liability for compensated absences is included with accrued expenses in the
accompanying financial statements.
Operating Revenues and Expenses
The Authority’s statement of revenues, expenses, and changes in net position distinguishes between operating
and nonoperating revenues and expenses. Operating revenues and expenses of the Authority result from
exchange transactions associated with providing health care services - the Authority’s principal activity, and the
costs of providing those services, including depreciation and excluding interest cost. All other revenues and
expenses are reported as nonoperating.
Net Patient Service Revenue
The Authority has agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments to the Authority at amounts
different from its established rates. Payment arrangements include prospectively determined rates, reimbursed
costs, discounted charges, and per diem payments. Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net
realizable amounts from patients, third-party payors, and others for services rendered, including estimated
retroactive adjustments under reimbursement agreements with third-party payors. Retroactive adjustments are
accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related services are rendered and adjusted in future periods as
final settlements are determined.
Charity Care
The Authority provides health care services to patients who meet certain criteria under its charity care policy
without charge or at amounts less than established rates. Since the Authority does not pursue collection of
these amounts, they are not reported as patient service revenue. The estimated cost of providing these services
was $1,000 and $20,000 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, calculated by multiplying the ratio of
cost to gross charges for the Authority by the gross uncompensated charges associated with providing charity
care to its patients.
20
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
Grants and Contributions
The Authority may receive grants as well as contributions from individuals and private organizations. Revenues
from grants and contributions (including contributions of capital assets) are recognized when all eligibility
requirements, including time requirements are met. Grants and contributions may be restricted for either
specific operating purposes or for capital purposes. Amounts that are unrestricted or that are restricted to a
specific operating purpose are reported as nonoperating revenues. Amounts restricted to capital acquisitions
are reported after expenses in excess of revenues.
Note 2 - Net Patient Service Revenue
The Authority has agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments to the Authority at amounts
different from its established rates. A summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors
follows:
Medicare: The Authority is licensed as a Critical Access Hospital (CAH). The Authority is reimbursed for most
acute care services under a cost reimbursement methodology with final settlement determined after submission
of annual cost reports by the Authority and are subject to audits thereof by the Medicare Administrative
Contractor (MAC). The Authority’s Medicare cost reports have been audited by the MAC through the year ended
December 31, 2016. Clinical services are paid on a cost basis or fixed fee schedule.
Medicaid: The Authority is reimbursed for services rendered to patients covered by the state Medicaid program
on a prospective per discharge or fee schedule method with no retroactive adjustments. These payment rates
vary according to a patient classification system that is based on clinical, diagnostic and other factors.
The Authority has also entered into payment agreements with certain commercial insurance carriers and other
organizations. The basis for payment to the Authority under these agreements includes prospectively
determined rates per discharge, discounts from established charges, and prospectively determined daily rates.
Concentration of gross revenues by major payor accounted for the following percentages of the Authority’s
patient service revenues for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018:
2019 2018
Medicare 44% 47%Medicaid 18% 19%Blue Cross and other commercial payors 31% 26%Self pay and other 7% 8%
100% 100%
21
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
Laws and regulations governing the Medicare, Medicaid, and other programs are extremely complex and subject
to interpretation. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a
material amount in the near term. The net patient service revenue increased approximately $172,000 for the
year ended December 31, 2018 due to removal of allowances previously estimated that are no longer necessary
as a result of final cost report settlements, adjustments to previously estimated settlements and cost report
periods that are no longer likely subject to audits, reviews, and investigations.
Note 3 - Deposits
The carrying amounts of deposits consisted of cash deposits in banks as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Deposits – Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk is the risk that in the event of a bank or investment company failure, the Authority’s
deposits may not be returned to it. State statute requires that any deposits in excess of federal depository or
other insured amounts be collateralized by U.S. Government securities in the name of the Authority. Statutes
also require that the market value of the collateral be at least 100% of the excess deposits. The Authority’s
deposit policy does not further restrict bank deposits or limit investment deposits.
The Authority’s deposits in banks at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were entirely covered by federal depository
insurance or by collateral held by the Authority’s custodial bank in the Authority’s name.

Note 9 - Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Authority grants credit without collateral to its patients, most of whom are area residents and are insured
under third-party payer agreements. The mix of receivables from third-party payors and patients at December
31, 2019 and 2018 was as follows:
2019 2018
Medicare 24% 26%Medicaid 9% 9%Commercial insurance 31% 36%Patients 36% 29%
100% 100%
Note 10 - Contingencies
Risk Management
The Authority is exposed to various risks of loss from torts; theft of, damage, of assets; business interruptions;
errors and omissions; employee injuries and illnesses; natural disasters; and employee health, dental, and
accident benefits. Commercial insurance coverage is purchased for claims arising from such matters other than
employee health claims. Settled claims have not exceeded this commercial coverage in any of the three
preceding years.
Malpractice Insurance
The Authority has malpractice insurance coverage to provide protection for professional liability losses on a
claims-made basis subject to a limit of $1 million per claim and an annual aggregate limit of $3 million.
Should the claims-made policy not be renewed or replaced with equivalent insurance, claims based on
occurrences during its term, but reported subsequently, would be uninsured.
Litigations, Claims, and Disputes
The Authority is subject to the usual contingencies in the normal course of operations relating to the
performance of its tasks under its various programs. In the opinion of management, the ultimate settlement of
any litigation, claims, and disputes in process will not be material to the financial position, operations, or cash
flows of the Authority.
The health care industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state, and local governments.
Compliance with these laws and regulations, specifically those relating to the Medicare and Medicaid programs,
can be subject to government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions unknown and unasserted
at this time. Federal government activity has increased with respect to investigations and allegations concerning
possible violations by health care providers of regulations, which could result in the imposition of significant
fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments of previously billed and collected revenues from patient
services.

Note 11 - Supplemental Hospital Offset Payment Program
On January 17, 2012, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) approved the State of Oklahoma's
Supplemental Hospital Offset Payment Program (SHOPP). The SHOPP is retroactive back to July 1, 2011 and is
currently scheduled to expire on December 31, 2020. The SHOPP is designed to assess certain Oklahoma
hospitals a supplemental hospital offset fee which will be placed in pools after receiving federal matching funds.
The total fees and matching funds will then be allocated to hospitals as directed by legislation. Critical access
hospitals are excluded from paying the supplemental hospital offset fee but are still eligible to receive SHOPP
funds. During 2019 and 2018, the Authority received approximately $677,000 and $1,027,000 in SHOPP funds.
The estimated annual amount to be received by the Authority over the term of the SHOPP is not expected to
change materially from the amount received in 2019. Revenue from the SHOPP is recorded in net patient service
revenue on the accompanying statements of revenues, expenses and changes in net position.

Note 13 - Correction of Errors
The financial statements were restated for the year ended December 31, 2018 to correct errors. The financial
statements incorrectly excluded a long-term debt agreement and associated capital asset. This resulted in an
understatement of capital assets, understatement of long-term debt, overstatement of net position,
overstatement of other expenses, understatement of depreciation expense, understatement of interest
expense, understatement of cash flows used for operating activities, and understatement of cash flows used for
capital and related financing activities. In addition, there were errors in the filed cost report for the year ending
December 31, 2018. This resulted in an understatement of estimated third-party payor settlements liability and
overstatement of net patient service revenue.

December 31, 2019 and 2018
Note 14 - Going Concern
The Authority has incurred operating losses during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. For the year
ended December 31, 2019 the Authority had expenses in excess of revenues of $789,726 which resulted in a net
deficit of $443,557. In addition, the Authority did not meet the covenants required by debt agreements as
described in Note 6 for the year ended December 31, 2019. Subsequent to year end, the Authority has been
negatively impacted by the effects of the world-wide coronavirus pandemic. The Authority is closely monitoring
its operations, liquidity, and capital resources and is actively working to minimize the current and future impact
of this unprecedented situation.
Management established a plan to mitigate the effects of the loss. The Authority has hired additional providers
and evaluated service lines to increase patient service revenues. In response to the coronavirus pandemic, the
Authority signed a payment protection program note payable (see Note 15). The effect of these changes cannot
be evaluated due to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Substantial doubt about the Authority’s ability to
continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the financial statements remains. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Authority be unable to continue
as a going concern.
Note 15 - Subsequent Events
The Authority has evaluated subsequent events through July 21, 2020 the date which the financial statements
were available to be issued.
The Authority entered into a lease agreement to lease infusion pumps. The Authority will pay $1,105 monthly
for five years.
On April 14, 2020, the Authority obtained $1,887,050 of loan proceeds through participation in the Paycheck
Protection Program. The loan proceeds are expected to be used to cover costs related to payroll and employee
benefits, rent and utilities. Funds borrowed under this program carry an interest rate of 1%, are due
within two years of inception and may be forgiven if certain conditions are met. Subject to any potential
forgiveness, monthly payments of $106,197, including interest, will be due starting November 14, 2020 until the
loan is paid in full.
During April 2020, the Authority received payments totaling $3,923,699 from the Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) as part of the CARES Act Provider Relief Fund to support healthcare related expenses or
lost revenue attributable to COVID-19. These funds are subject to specific HHS terms and conditions.
During May 2020, the Authority received payments totaling $4,981,718 from CMS as part of the Accelerated and
Advance Payment Program. The Authority is to repay the funds starting 120 days after the date of receipt of the
funds and has up to one year to repay the balance.

Independent Auditor’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and
Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government
Auditing Standards
To the Board of Trustees
Cleveland Area Hospital Trust Authority
Cleveland, Oklahoma
We have audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of Cleveland Area
Hospital Trust Authority (Authority) which comprise the statements of net position as of December 31,
2019, the related statements of revenues, expenses, and changes in net position, and cash flows for the
year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the
Authority’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated July 21, 2020.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Authority's internal
control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Authority’s internal control.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Authority’s internal control.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in
the preceding paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over
financial reporting that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that have not been identified. However, as described in
the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Responses, we identified certain deficiencies in internal
control that we consider to be material weaknesses and significant deficiencies.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or
detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the Authority’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected
on a timely basis. We did identify certain deficiencies in internal control, described in the accompanying
Schedule of Findings and Responses that we consider to be material weaknesses: 2019-001 to 2019-003.
39
A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less
severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with
governance. We consider the deficiency described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and
Responses to be a significant deficiency: 2019-004.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Authority's financial statements are free
from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws,
regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and
material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on
compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express
such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed instances of noncompliance or other matters that are
required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards and are described in the accompanying
Schedule of Findings and Responses as items 2019-005 and 2019-006.
Authority’s Response to Findings
The Authority’s responses to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying
Schedule of Findings and Responses. The Authority’s responses were not subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on
it.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and
compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the

Material Weaknesses In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:
2019-001 Preparation of Financial Statements
Criteria: A properly designed system of internal control over financial reporting includes the preparation of an
entity's financial statements and accompanying notes to the financial statements by internal personnel of the
entity. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control over financial reporting and
procedures related to the fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Condition: The Authority does not have an internal control system designed to provide for the preparation of the
financial statements, including the accompanying footnotes and statement of cash flows, as required by GAAP.
As auditors, we were requested to draft the financial statements and accompanying notes to the financial
statements. In addition, material misstatements to the financial statements, including a restatement of the prior
year financial statements due to a correction of an error, were identified.
Cause: Obtaining the expertise necessary to prepare the financial statements, including all necessary disclosures,
in accordance with GAAP can be considered costly and ineffective.
Effect: The effect of this condition is that year-end financial reporting is prepared by a party outside of the
Authority. The outside party does not have constant contact with the ongoing financial transactions that internal
staff have. Furthermore, it is possible that new standards may not be adopted and applied timely to interim
financial statements.
Auditor’s Recommendation: We recommend that management continue reviewing operating procedures in
order to obtain the maximum internal control over financial reporting possible under the circumstances to
enable staff to draft the financial statements internally.
Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding. Subsequent to year end, the Authority
hired a chief financial officer to prepare financial statements.
2019-002 Estimated Third-Party Payor Settlements
Criteria: Accountings standards require an entity to estimate the amount due or receivable from Medicare in
order to fairly state the financial position monthly and as of year-end.
Condition: During the current year, the Authority did not record the financial effect of prior Medicare cost report
settlements in the current year. The Authority should record adjustments for current and prior year activities to
the estimated third-party payor settlement account.
Cause: The current year activity for prior Medicare cost report settlements were not properly recorded at year
end which resulted in a journal entry to the financial statements.
Effect: This resulted in an audit adjustment to properly state the current year settlement.

Auditor’s Recommendation: It is recommended the Authority implement a system that provides adequate
controls over estimating cost report settlements.
Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding. Subsequent to year end, the Authority
hired a new chief financial officer and started using a cost report model to estimate current settlements.
2019-003 Unrecorded Long-Term Debt
Criteria: Accountings standards require an entity to record a capital asset and liability once the capital asset is
received and debt agreement is finalized.
Condition: Long-term debt and capital assets were understated. In addition, there was misclassifications of
expenses.
Cause: A note payable was not properly recorded when the Authority purchased capital assets.
Effect: Interim financial statements were not properly stated. The financial statements required material
adjustments, including a prior period restatement.
Auditor’s Recommendation: We recommend that management record notes payable and related assets when
agreements are finalized.
Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.
Significant Deficiency In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:
2019-004 Calculation of Bad Debt and Contractual Allowances
Criteria: Accountings standards require an entity to report receivables at net realizable value. Determining net
realizable value requires management to estimate an allowance for contractual adjustments and doubtful
accounts. The allowance should be based on historical data and current reimbursement rates.
Condition: The allowance calculations were not properly estimated during the year.
Cause: Collections were not reviewed and considered in determining the potential impact on contractual
adjustments or bad debt estimates on older accounts.
Effect: Interim financial statements may not be properly stated. An audit adjustment was made to the allowance
accounts.
Auditor’s Recommendation: We recommend that management review historical collections when estimating
allowances. The allowance accounts should be reviewed each month as well for reasonableness in relation to
the accounts receivable and revenue.
Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.

Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance
2019-005 Covenant Violations
Criteria: The Authority is required to meet annual covenants in relation to their outstanding long-term debt.
Condition: The Authority did not file the audit report within 90 days of year end, maintain asset to liability ratio
greater than 1.5:1, and maintain a debt to equity ratio of less than 6:1. The Authority received a waiver of these
covenants for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Cause: The Authority did not have adequate revenues to offset expenses. This resulted in a loss for the year and
a net deficit position at year end. In addition, the Authority incurred additional current liabilities related to
operating the Authority.
Effect: This resulted in the Authority being in violation of the debt agreement which is defined as an event of
default within the debt agreement.
Auditor’s Recommendation: It is recommended that the Authority evaluate opportunities to reduce operating
costs and increase revenues to restore compliance with covenants.
Views of Responsible Officials: We agree with the auditor’s recommendation.
2019-006 Debt Payments
Criteria: When entering into debt agreements, lenders and borrowers will agree on various terms such as
repayment of the loan amount. These terms should be met by both parties.
Condition: The Authority has not made the proper payments as required in the debt agreement.
Cause: The Authority does not have the funds available to make the required balloon payment.
Effect: This resulted in an event of default of the debt agreement and allows the lender to call the debt.
Auditor’s Recommendation: It is recommended that the Authority make the required debt payments or work
with the lender on new payment terms.
Views of Responsible Officials: We agree with the auditor’s recommendation.
