About

The Cheshire Medical Center (CMC), is a community hospital located in Keene, New Hampshire. CMC is a not-for-profit organization, as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and is exempt from Federal income taxes on related income pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. On March 2, 2014, CMC affiliated with Dartmouth-Hitchcock Health ("D-HH") a non-profit tax-exempt corporation with a principal place of business at One Medical Center Drive, Lebanon, New Hampshire. Consistent with the D-HH vision and strategy to create a sustainable health system, CMC and D-HH share a common commitment to improving population health, value-based care, and creating new payment models for the benefit of the citizens of New Hampshire and Vermont. CMC provides a broad range of patient services and health related community services, consistent with its role as a community hospital. These include a full range of services in both acute and critical medicine, surgery, and rehabilitation. During FY18 CMC provided 21,637 days of inpatient care and had 4,559 hospital discharges, while the emergency department was open to the public 24 hours per day, 7 days per week and had 22,519 ER patient visits. Each year Cheshire Medical Center files an annual Community Benefit Report with the State of New Hampshire which outlines the community and charitable benefits they provide. The most recent Community Benefit Reports are available upon request or can be found on Cheshire's website (http://www.cheshire-med.com/about_us/communityben_report.html). The Community health activities include the cost or value of several different types of programs including the cost of community based education programs, involving a variety of chronic disease and wellness topics such as: stress management and resiliency, nutrition, physical education and exercise, high blood pressure prevention and monitoring, diabetes prevention and monitoring, advanced directive planning, and others. In total, CMC provided over $8 million in Community Benefits including unreimbursed charity care, health services, health profession education, subsidized health services, and community-building activities. These contributions are in addition to the over $25 million dollars in unreimbursed Medicaid and Medicare costs absorbed by CMC.
