WorkingTogether - Billings Clinic
Working Together Philanthropy Report 2010-2012 Hundreds gather in the Commons to celebrate Billings Clinic joining the Mayo Clinic Care Network. Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success. – Henry Ford Cover photo: Larry Mayer, Billings Gazette A Message to Our Donors Billings Clinic is fortunate to have so many friends who support our organization and assist us on our journey to become a national leader in providing the best clinical quality, patient safety, service and value. Philanthropy continues to make a positive difference in our ability to fulfill this vision. Our generous benefactors have varied backgrounds and experiences but a common thread binds them all: believing in Billings Clinic’s mission and knowing our organization is committed to working together for the future health of our families, friends and community. Never was this commitment stronger than on July 1, 1993, when Deaconess Medical Center and Billings Clinic formally merged. As we celebrate our twenty-year anniversary as an integrated not-for-profit, community-governed and physician-led organization, we reflect on the incredible teamwork and farsighted vision of our community and physicians to create an organization dedicated to a higher purpose in providing health care for our region. Our patients and their families are the beneficiaries of your generosity. Your contributions are critical in helping us achieve our mission of excellence in health care, education and research. But most importantly, your gifts symbolize your trust in the role Billings Clinic plays in our community and region. Your investment and involvement are critical to Billings Clinic’s continued success, and we recognize the importance of being good stewards of the resources you entrust to us. We never lose sight of the fact that you are the catalyst for turning possibilities into realities at Billings Clinic. Jim Duncan President Billings Clinic Foundation Jim Bennett Chair Billings Clinic Foundation Board of Directors Nick Wolter, MD CEO Billings Clinic Scott Millikan, MD Chair Billings Clinic Board of Directors Working Together | 1 David Hayes, MD, Medical Director of the Mayo Clinic Care Network, speaks about our new relationship with Mayo Clinic. For nearly 150 years, Mayo’s approach to health care has been rooted in the idea that the best patient care is achieved when experts from a variety of medical specialties work together, focused on the patient. Billings Clinic and Mayo Clinic share very similar visions. Celebrating New Relationships Joining the Mayo Clinic Care Network On the morning of January 9, 2013, hundreds of employees, physicians, community members and dignitaries gathered together to celebrate a new relationship between Billings Clinic and Mayo Clinic. We are the first health system in Montana and Wyoming to have passed Mayo’s rigorous review process and been selected as a member of the Mayo Clinic Care Network. This relationship is a reflection of Billings Clinic’s obsessive dedication to patient safety, quality, service and value – guiding principles in the work we do everyday. Dr. Nick Wolter and Dr. Scott Millikan joined Dr. David Hayes on stage for the announcement of our new relationship with Mayo Clinic. Hundreds witnessed this historic moment in the Commons at Billings Clinic. Through the network, Billings Clinic and Mayo Clinic will be closely connected, and our patients will benefit as our doctors collaborate with some of the world’s most highly specialized physicians on complex health issues. And, just as important to our patients, this new relationship means that we can access Mayo Clinic knowledge and expertise right here at home, so fewer patients have to travel out of our region for certain specialized care. Achieving these advanced levels of distinction simply would not be possible without working together with our donors. Your gifts are helping to fund the margin of excellence at Billings Clinic for the benefit of the patients and families we serve. Working Together | 3 Achieving Our Vision A Never Ending Journey Clinical Quality. Patient Safety. Service. Value. These simple words contained within our vision statement hold a wealth of meaning to the staff of Billings Clinic. They are our promise to obsessively and compassionately focus on exceeding the expectations of every patient and guest. Noteworthy highlights, such as being ranked number one in the nation for patient safety by Consumer Reports in 2012 and the “A” rating we received from the Leapfrog Group Hospital Safety Score Program, are evidence of our commitment to excellence. Billings Clinic takes great pride in the honors and rankings bestowed on us and celebrates the achievements we have accomplished together. Yet, we are forever vigilant in objectively measuring our performance and realize our journey is never-ending. There is still much work to be done. Your investment in Billings Clinic, no matter the designation of your gift, allows us to continue our quest to fulfill our vision.

To be completed in 2014, the 20,000 square foot outpatient center will include additional exam and diagnostic testing rooms and a greatly expanded Cardiac Rehabilitation Suite. Most importantly, the new center will bring outpatient cardiac services back into the main clinic, supporting greater interaction between key medical specialties and primary care. Photo: Casey Page, Billings Gazette Building for the Future Working Together and Building for the Future Billings Clinic is constantly undergoing a thoughtful strategic planning process to achieve our vision of being a national leader in providing the best clinical quality, patient safety, service and value for our patients. A critical part of achieving this vision is comprehensive master facility planning. In 2011, senior leaders, architects, physicians, nurses and staff working together conducted an in-depth evaluation of Billings Clinic’s Medical Campus Plan. They thoroughly examined the needs of our patients, advancing medical technology and new methods of health care delivery in light of aging facilities and inadequate space. The conversations were difficult as our organization faces a multitude of important and worthy needs with limited resources to meet those needs. With the care of our patients at the forefront and the desire to improve patient care for generations to come, the Board of Directors at Billings Clinic approved the following projects to be prioritized for completion by the year 2015: 1 Building a new outpatient Cardiac Center 2 Building a new Intensive Care Unit 7 3 Major expansion and renovation of the Operating Rooms 4 Building a new Ambulatory Telemetry Unit 5 6 3 2 4 5 Expansion of the Family Birth Center and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit 8 1 6 Building an inpatient Pediatric Unit 7 Expansion of the Laboratory NORTH 8 Renovation and expansion of the Clinic The projected cost to build and equip these imperative projects is $42 million. Billings Clinic will use $33 million of low interest bond proceeds, leaving a balance of $9 million. With the uncertainty in health care reform, in addition to our routine equipment and technology needs, Billings Clinic is simply not in a financial position to borrow more than $33 million at this time. Billings Clinic has asked Billings Clinic Foundation to raise the $9 million necessary to complete the projects through philanthropic support. Together, with members of our Billings Clinic family and a visionary and generous community and region, we are making great strides in reaching our goal. We thank our donors for embracing our mission and vision, for partnering with us to make a positive difference in the lives of our patients and their families, and for investing in our future. It is a commitment we take very seriously, and we will be excellent stewards of the trust and gifts placed in our hands.

Planning for the operating rooms includes: 13 state-of-the-art operating rooms designed with patient safety at the forefront. All rooms will be appropriately sized to meet the demands of today’s technology. Special attention is being given to the flow and efficiency of the operating rooms with the end result being greater patient safety. Billings Clinic plans to construct a 29-bed Ambulatory Telemetry Unit (ATU) primarily dedicated to the care of cardiac patients on the third floor of the building which houses the Emergency and Trauma Center.

The expansion of the Family Birth Center will include the addition of six family birth suites. Birthing suites incorporate soft colors and soothing fabrics with ample space for family and friends. The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit will be able to increase their capacity from caring for 13 babies to 18 babies. This much needed expansion will allow for more families to begin their first days of life’s journey at Billings Clinic under the compassionate and skillful guidance of our Family Birth Center staff. 14 | Working Together Billings Clinic is planning the construction of a pediatric inpatient unit specifically designed for the care and comfort of our young patients. Each room will be equipped with a sleeper sofa, allowing parents to comfortably spend the night at their child’s bedside. Each child’s room will be a safe haven, locating all procedures and treatments in a specially designed treatment room. An “imagination” play room will offer children much needed diversion and comfort as they deal with the often frightening experience of being hospitalized.

Working Together Working Together The Plan for the Expansion of the Laboratory The Plan for the Renovation of the Clinic The Laboratory is an essential component to patient care, and as our organization’s service needs grow, the Laboratory must grow to keep pace. Growth was anticipated when the Family Birth Center wing was added in 1999, and 3,000 square feet of shelled space is available for the expansion. Planning and construction for the Laboratory expansion will take place in 2013. The planning process for the clinic is in the final stages. Multiple departments are experiencing a shortage of clinical space to meet current demand, let alone accommodate for future growth. The facility planning committee is in the process of evaluating all facility needs in the clinic with recommendations for approval in 2013.

Together, through the Mildred Sandall Scott Women’s Wellness Endowment and our other partners in women’s health programs, thousands of women have received preventative health screenings at Billings Clinic. Mildred’s lasting legacy of giving women the gift of life and good health is a fitting honor to this remarkable woman.

It takes a true philanthropic spirit to make a commitment to help those in the Hewes and Susan Agnew community today, while planning ahead to benefit future generations. For Dr. Hewes and Susan Agnew, they made the decision that generosity never has to end, and together guaranteed their legacy of giving would positively impact lives at Billings Clinic for generations to come. In 1972, Hewes was finishing his surgical residency at the prestigious Johns Hopkins Surgical Residency program in Baltimore, Maryland. Hewes and Susan began looking out west for a smaller community with a strong medical presence. Billings Clinic and Deaconess Hospital were an ideal fit. Months earlier, the hospital began an open heart surgery program, and Hewes’ surgical expertise was a welcomed addition. Together, Hewes and his partner Dr. John Heizer, with cardiologists Dr. Walter Degnan, Dr. John Burg and Dr. H. Sorenson, blazed the trail for delivering advanced cardiac care and cardiovascular surgery to Montana – a transformational step forward in bringing specialized medicine to the deserving citizens of our state. Since arriving in Billings, the Agnews have contributed their time, talent and philanthropic support to many important causes within Billings Clinic and in our community. Leading by example, they have taught colleagues and friends the importance of giving back, inspiring many. Dr. Agnew officially retired in 1999; however he and his wife have continued to be dedicated supporters of Billings Clinic. Not only have Hewes and Susan provided many generous gifts to Billings Clinic, they have also created a lasting legacy through their support of the Heizer/Agnew Cardiac Services Endowment, which will live into perpetuity and continue to provide a philanthropic margin of excellence for cardiovascular services at Billings Clinic. We are forever grateful for the incredible handprint Hewes and Susan have left on our organization. Working Together | 21 Billings Clinic Foundation is grateful for annual gifts from our donors that allow us to support innovative programs, help patients and their families through our patient assistance funds and purchase state-of-the-art equipment. Your generosity is helping fund the margins of excellence at Billings Clinic. Annual Support Working Together for the Benefit of Our Patients and Their Families Working together, your gifts allow us to accomplish great things on behalf of our patients and their families. As a not-forprofit health care organization, our physicians and hospital provide care for patients regardless of their economic or insurance status. In fiscal year 2012, Billings Clinic provided over $14.7 million in charity care. Given this need, as well as the need to establish and expand vital services and facilities and invest in new, leading-edge medical technology that allows us to better diagnose and treat our patients, your gifts truly support our mission and are deeply appreciated. It is with sincere gratitude that we recognize support from the following individuals, families, corporations, foundations and organizations that gave gifts to Billings Clinic Foundation from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2012. Gifts and pledges to our current Expansion and Renovation Campaign are recognized on pages 10-15. We also thank our many donors who completed their pledges to the Cancer Center Capital Campaign over this time frame. Your gifts, recognized in our last annual report, have transformed cancer care for our region and provided a state-of-the-art facility which stands as a testament to the care excellence happening within its walls.

Through the Harold and Patricia Korell Foundation, the Korells have partnered with Dr. Patricia Coon, a Billings Clinic geriatrician specializing in the care of the elderly, to optimize health care for this special and vulnerable group of patients. The Korells have invested in solutions to improve access to quality medical care for seniors. In 2010, they purchased an all-wheel drive van to transport elderly patients to their medical appointments. Last year, the van completed over 3200 trips. Additional support provided technology which enables our senior care team the ability to access Billings Clinic medical records at the bedside of patients in nursing homes and assisted living facilities. The Korells recently funded a dedicated area to house our Senior Assessment Program, including an exam room, spacious home-like consultation room for large family gatherings and space for our nurse navigator who specializes in senior care. The H.G. Korell Family Suite will offer a comforting space for seniors to undergo a thorough assessment and allow for private space for family members to share concerns and discuss possible treatment plans with the care team. This beautiful and private space will also be used by our palliative care team in discussing sensitive and emotional issues with patients and their families. The Korells have also gifted generously to our pediatric cancer patient assistance fund and our Center for Breast Health. Billings Clinic is very fortunate to have friends like Harold and Pat, who utilize their resources to effectively comfort others in a significant and lasting way.

These children are the patients of Billings Clinic pediatricians Dr. Paul Kelker and Dr. Courtney Lyle, both board certified pediatric oncologists. Billings Clinic has been caring for children with cancer since 1978 when Dr. Kelker started the first pediatric oncology program in Montana. Thanks to our many donors to the Kelker’s Kids Fund who ensure these deserving families have the financial support they need so they can focus on what is important – the care of their child. The Foundation extends special thanks to Tracy Hoen and her wonderful family and volunteers for giving countless hours of their time, year after year, to spearhead the annual Kelker’s Kids fundraising event. Our appreciation is also extended to the employees of SM Energy, led by Tyson Schwartz and Luke Studer, for generously donating the proceeds of their Bird & Birdie Tournament to this very worthy cause.

Each year, Billings Clinic is proud to conduct the region’s largest science fair competition, the Science Expo, designed to encourage critical scientific thinking skills in children in grades 1 through 12. The Science Expo fosters excellence in academics and encourages children to pursue careers in science and technology. Generous support from our sponsors and donors allows students from across eastern Montana to participate at no charge and compete for prizes including all-expense paid trips for high school students to international science fair competitions. These are truly “once in a lifetime” experiences for the brightest students in our region to test themselves against the best in our nation and open numerous doors for scholarship opportunities.

Dr. Twito joined Billings Clinic in 1975 and was the first medical oncologist to practice in the state of Montana. He received his oncology fellowship training at the University of Minnesota under Dr. B.J. Kennedy, known as the “father of Medical Oncology.” Dr. Twito’s arrival to Billings Clinic ushered in a new era in cancer specialty care for the people of Montana and Wyoming by bringing innovative new treatments and research opportunities to the region for the very first time. Dr. Twito worked tirelessly for 37 years and was a passionate advocate of cancer research and a generous benefactor to Billings Clinic Foundation. Diane Peterson Diane K.
