1996/97 NRH20 Season Update
Introduction
The third season of NRH20 Family Waterpark is complete with strong showings in
many areas. This summary report outlines some of the more noteworthy highlights
and will be followed by a more comphrensive report at a later date.
Master Plan
The Master Plan for the development of NRH20 Family Waterpark is in its final
stages and has been researched by staff to include the latest designs in waterpark
attractions. Staff has worked with Brinkley-Sargent Architects and attraction
vendors to develop rides that globally address the parks long-term growth, while still
maintaining the "open space" appeal currently experienced throughout the park.
1,,-_>
Financial Performance
This is our third consecutive year of revenue growth. The inaugural season
generated $1.7 million, growing to $1.9 million last year and reaching approximately
$2.1 million this past season. The majority of the park revenue comes from gate
admissions, group sales and season pass sales. Season pass sales as a whole
were down, as anticipated, which partially accounted for the decrease in attendance
from the previous season.
Strong on-park revenue centers included the gift shop with over $100,000 in sales.
"Beanie Baby" stuffed animals and the "Big Squirt" water toys were notable sellers. .
Food and Beverages saw an increase in sales as well. The increase in sales
coupled with the decrease in attendance resulted in higher per capita spending (on
average) by our guests, which is a strong positive indicator of .the value of the
service and guest experience.
Attendance
NRH20 posted attendance numbers of 202,957 for the 1997 season. As mentioned
previously, this is down from the 222,986 attendance total from the 1996 season.
Poor weather early in the season, coupled with the planned decrease in season
pass sales resulted in the lower attendance numbers. However, the lower season
pass sales helped to "boost" on-park spending because traditionally, season pass
holders visit the park more often however they spend less money while visiting.

Survey Data
Survey results have shown some interesting trends in relation to the demographics
of our guests. The largest percentage of our guests are still coming from North
Richland Hills, at 25 percent. This shows that NRH20 is still being well received by
our residents. Over 20 percent of the guests surveyed reported that they were not
from the local area. This is an increase over the last two years. Some of these "Not
from Area" guests can be attributed to people who are visiting family (or others) in
the area. This leaves the remainder who are either visiting the Dallas/Fort Worth
area and have chosen to visit NRH20 over other attractions or those who have
come to North Richland Hills just to visit NRH20. These guests bring additional
revenue to the City of North Richland Hills as a whole in the form of additional sales
taxes and purchases that help our local business. This is a positive trend that
should be investigated and developed.
Our length of stay (in hours) has risen slightly from the past two seasons. Length
of stay is tied to "per capita" spending noted earlier in this report. As more
attractions and activities are added to the park, length of stay will increase.
In respect to the parks marketing efforts, the number one way people are finding out
about NRH20 continues to be word of mouth. This strong word of mouth is
reflective of the overall high quality entertainment service provided. Television is
still the strongest media utilized, followed by radio. People are recalling the jingle
utilized in our efforts, sometimes breaking into song and singing it to staff.
Mothers and children are still the top decision makers in respect to visiting NRH20.
They account for a combined total of over 50 percent of key decision makers from
survey result data.
It is interesting to note that while our guest service scores continued to improve, the
ratings of our attractions and facilities actually decreased for the first time. In the
comment section ofthe form, the overwhelming response dealt with expansion. Our
guests want more slides, more slides and more slides. The Master Plan will outline
new additions to the park that have been formulated based on guest survey
information and staff industry research into which attractions best fit the requests
from our guests.

Feasibility Study: Columbia North Hills Hospital
Tax Abatement Application
Attached is the Feasibility Study and Recommendation on the August 5, 1997 tax
abatement application by Columbia North Hills Hospital. Columbia plans to spend $20.8
million in expanding and improving its acute care, outpatient and medical office facilities
at 4251 and 4401 Booth Calloway Road--and is seeking tax abatement on $16.5 million
of those improvements.
I look forward to discussing this study with you Monday night. If you have any questions
before then, please call me at 581-5534.

COLUMBIA NORTH HILLS HOSPITAL
APPLICATION FOR TAX ABATEMENT
FEASIBILITY STUDY AND RECOMMENDATION
NORTH RICH LAND HILLS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
OCTOBER 1997
Columbia Feasibility Study
Page 2
The adopted Guidelines and Criteria for granting tax abatement in the City of North
Richland Hills require staff to perform a Feasibility Study setting out the impact of the
proposed reinvestment zone and tax abatement.
QUALIFICATIONS TO APPLY
Columbia North Hills Hospital qualifies to apply for tax abatement as a "Regional Health
Care Facility". Such an operation is defined as "buildings and structures, including fixed
machinery and equipment, used or to be used to provide health care services, from which
a majority of revenues generated by activity at the facility are derived from outside North
Richland Hills".
Columbia will be renovating and modernizing 64,700 sq. ft. of existing hospital space,
expanding the hospital by 16,400 sq. ft. and building a 54,000 sq. ft. medical office
building.
In addition to the cost of construction, Columbia plans to add personal property (which is
exempt from abatement) including office furniture, office equipment (including computers,
faxes, printers, copiers) and medical diagnostic equipment.
As defined in our Guidelines & Criteria, expansion means "the addition of buildings,
structures, fixed machinery or equipment for purposes of increasing production capacity".
Modernization is defined as "the upgrading of existing facilities which increase the
productive input or output, upgrades the technology or substantially lowers the unit cost
of the operations. Modernization may result from the construction, alteration, or installation
of buildings, structures, fixed machinery or equipment".
IMPROVEMENTS
The proposed remodeling and expansion by Columbia Healthcare Corporation will be at
the company's North Hills Hospital facilities at 4401 and 4251 Booth Calloway Road.
In Phase I, Columbia's contractors will renovate the hospital lobby. Phase II activities will
be focused on site work and construction of a new parking lot on the south end of the
medical campus. Shortly thereafter, contractors will begin placing foundation steel for the
medical office building and hospital expansion (Phase III). Phase IV will cover all new
construction associated with the medical office building, expansion and lobby. And internal
renovations will comprise the fifth and final Phase.

APPLICATION GUIDELINES/ECONOMIC QUALIFICATIONS
An applicant must submit the Application for Tax Abatement prior to the commencement
of construction. Columbia's application qualifies as it was received on August 5, 1997.
For an expanded or modernized facility an applicant must invest not less than $1,500,000
in the facilities over a three-year period. Columbia's application qualifies as they expect
to invest $20.8 million ($16.5 of which qualifies for abatement).
An applicant must create and/or retain not less than 10 jobs associated with the production
of goods and services at the authorized facilities. Columbia's application would qualify as
they anticipate retaining 628 employees (the full-time equivalent of 515 positions) and
adding the full-time equivalent of 93 employees (or 120 people) after completion of the
expansion and improvements.
Columbia has already added 195 new positions since consolidating its Northeast Tarrant
County acute-care services at North Hills Hospital in June 1997. When combined with the
projected new jobs, Columbia's North Hills Hospital employment base will exceed 700
(748)--and the Hospital will have the full-time equivalent of 608 jobs--upon the project's
completion.
As of October 6, the residences of Columbia North Hills Hospital's employees broke down
as follows:
North Richland Hills
Hurst
Watauga
Haltom City
Keller
Colleyville
Richland Hills
14.3%
7.5%
6.2%
4.1%
4.1%
2.9%
2.1%
Columbia Feasibility Study
Page 4
Thus 262 (or 41.7%) of the Hospital's employees live in or immediately adjacent to North
Richland Hills.
APPLICATION REVIEW
The City received Columbia's application on August 5, 1997. The application and
accompanying letter are attached for review.
All requirements to make application for tax abatement have been met. Included are:
a. Written Description of Project
b. Statement of Improvements
c. Map of Area
d. Time Schedule
e. Financial Information (included in the two most-recent Annual
Reports)
ECONOMIC EFFECT
Columbia's expansion and modernization will have a positive economic impact on the City
of North Richland Hills and its citizens. Areas of impact include:
*
The creation of the full-time equivalent of 93 new health care jobs--or 120
total new people employed.
Based on Columbia's analysis of employee residency, North Richland Hills
can expect to see 17 of the 120 employees live in the City and 33 of the 120
employees live in an immediately adjacent City if the company were to fill the
positions at the present percentages.
*
According to a study conducted by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (What
100 New Jobs Mean to a Community. 1993 Edition, by Martin Lefkowitz), an
increase in 120 jobs will also result in an increase of 67 additional positions
coming in the following industries:
Construction 2.01
Manufacturing 10.72
Transportation, Communications,
and Utilities 4.69
Wholesale and Retail Trade 16.76
Columbia Feasibility Study
Page 5
Finance, Insurance and Real Estate

Other
6.04

*
An immediate increase in the City's personal property values with the
addition of $3.46 million in new equipment which is ineligible for abatement.
Such an increase will help strengthen North Richland Hills' economic base.
*
An excellent match for the health care and professional work force available
in and around North Richland Hills
In summary, the project is expected to have a total economic impact (direct and indirect)
of:
187 new jobs
$ 2.5 million in new or increased payroll at Columbia North Hills Hospital
$3.46 million in new personal property, annually yielding $19,771.89 in new
property tax revenues for the City
TAX IMPACT
Our guidelines for tax abatement allow for a 500% reduction in property taxes--on the
improvements only--over a 5 or 10 year period.
Based on our existing tax rate of .57 cents, abatement on the increased value of
$16,510,552 would abate $470,550 in taxes over the life of the contract. Columbia
officials have requested a 100% abatement over five years.
It should be noted that taxes would not be abated on:
1) The existing structures owned by Columbia North Hills Hospital.
2) Land Value.
3) Personal Property.
Columbia Feasibility Study
Page 6
IMPACT ON CITY SERVICES
Representatives of North Richland Hills' Finance (Utility Billing), Fire, Police and Public
Works Departments have reviewed Columbia's expansion plans--and do not anticipate any
significant impacts. Their specific observations include the following:
While there are several water and sewer lines that will need to be added or
relocated, the project engineer is aware that they will be installed at the Hospital's
expense.
The Hospital is developing a site plan that will minimize the impact on the adjacent
flood plain. Hospital officials understand that all required drainage improvements
will be made at Columbia's expense.
Public Works does not expect increased road maintenance on the existing facilities.
If it is determined that the increase in traffic may present an access problem, Public
Works will request that the Hospital conduct a traffic study. And if, for example,
there is a need for a future signal light at Booth Calloway and Rodger Line Drive,
the Hospital will need to participate in the cost of installation. The amount of
installation would likely meet or even exceed the impact cause by the proposed
expansion.
Police Department officials believe the renovation of the Emergency Room--where
virtually all of their activity is concentrated--"will not appreciably increase the need
for a greater amount of police involvement".
Chief Stan Gertz does not expect the growth at North Hills Hospital to "have any
affect in the operation of the Fire Department"--and noted that the Hospital will
continue to receive the same level of service that it does now. Chief Gertz added
that the Hospital's growth "should provide just one more reason why North Richland
Hills is the best City in which to live and raise a family".
FUTURE GROWTH
Columbia's decision to consolidate its Northeast Tarrant County acute-care operations at
North Hills Hospital--and later initiate a $20.8 million renovation/expansion to
accommodate growth in a number of departments (including Women's Services, Outpatient
Imaging, Surgical and Emergency Services) illustrates the company's long-term
commitment to North Hills and our community.
Columbia Feasibility Study
Page 7
Likewise, demand for medical services will increase as Northeast Tarrant County's
population continues to expand. Most of the land available to accommodate residential
subdivisions are located northwest of the 820/121 Interchange--and Columbia North Hills
is the only hospital in close proximity to this area.
Columbia is a publicly-traded company and under the constant review of stockholders.
Therefore, Columbia is working to stay on the cutting-edge of the health care industry. And
in spite of recent federal accusations against the parent company, North Hills Hospital has
maintained a spotless reputation when it comes to delivery of health care services. The
Hospital received a perfect score in its recent reaccreditation.
Moreover, North Hills Hospital has set an example for other North Rich/and Hills employers
when it comes to being a good corporate citizen. The Hospital teamed up with the City's
Park & Recreation Department several years ago to create the Corporate Challenge,
donated much of the right-of-way (and is voluntarily paying its assessment) for the
construction of Rodger Line Drive, annually supports the City's Head for the Hills Family
Festival and has pledged to donate the land necessary for the future Calloway Branch
creek hike/bike trail project.
RECOMMENDATION
After a comprehensive review of this material, the Economic Development Department
recommends that the Application for Tax Abatement submitted by Columbia North Hills
Hospital be approved.

Discuss the Possibility of Meeting Room at Iron Horse Golf Course
For the past several months the Mayor and City Council have expressed interest in looking
at the feasibility of adding a large meeting room at Iron Horse Golf Course. C.A. Sanford
was asked to explore the cost estimates and possible financing options related to such
expansion of the Iron Horse Club House.
C.A. will be available at the Pre-Council Meeting to discuss some ideas and some preliminary
information regarding the building expansion. The type of building is projected to
accommodate approximately 300 people, using round tables for a banquet type meeting.
However, the suggested room would be constructed to accommodate many different types
of arrangements. At Pre-CouncU C. A. will be prepared to discuss the estimated construction
cost, the annual debt service cost and the estimated operation cost, as well as the possible
financing of the annual debt service.
If Council is interested in pursuing a large meeting facility in North Richland Hills, it will be
necessary to select an architect to begin working on designs and plans. We also need to
begin thinking about a financing plan for the possible sale of Certificates of Obligation for
the construction. Staff would appreciate direction on this matter.

access to the Shopping Center was a major
factor in the declining occupancy rate. The
consensus of the Council was for the City to
make an official request to TxDOT for the

Subject: Public HearinQ to Consider the Request of Collin Equities Agenda Number:
Inc., to Rezone Lot 3, Block 1, Walker Branch Addition from
C-1 Commercial & R-7 Multi-family to a Planned Development
for an Assisted Living Facility. (Located in the 8400 Block of
Emerald Hills Way) Ordinance No. 2245
PZ 97-40
Collin Equities, Inc., is developing this 13.6 acre tract of land into an Assisted Living Facility
containing 85 residential units. The development will have a density of 6.25 units per acre. The
current multi-family zoning complicates development of this property as an Assisted Living
Facility. Approval of the proposed Planned Development ordinance enables the City to
"customize" the development regulations for this particular use. The issues associated with this
Planned Development are as follows:
1, Masonry Screening Wall: The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended a masonry
screening wall where this development abuts the Emerald Hills subdivision on the western side of
this tract and a wrought iron fence where this development abuts the drainage open space along
the south side of the development, but not within the 100 year flood plain. The developer has
agreed to construct the masonry screening wall and the wrought iron fence.
2. Parking: The developer is proposing 60 parking spaces for this 85 unit facility. This parking
ratio exceeds the minimum parking standards of .5 parking spaces per bed in the current
regulations.
3. Landscaping: The site plan complies with the NRH Landscaping Requirements which require
15% of the lot be landscaped..
4. Masonry Requirement: The NRH regulations require this structure to be constructed of 75%
masonry on all elevations. The proposed facility will meet the masonry requirements for the City
of NRH.
5. Dumpster Screening: The Planning & Zoning Commission has recommended a 6' masonry
screen around all garbage dumpsters. The developer has agreed to this requirement.
6. Fire Lane: The developer has modified the site plan to provide a 90' fire lane turnaround as
required.

1 COMMERCIAL & R-7 MULTI-FAMILY TO A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
FOR AN ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY. (LOCATED IN THE 8400 BLOCK OF

APPROVED
Mr, LeBaron explained that this property is currently zoned multi-family except
for the small tip at the very southern end, which is zoned commercial. The
applicant was advised that assisted living centers are allowed by right in the C-1
zoning district, they could seek rezoning for a planned development, or they
could simply build the facility as a multi-family facility under the multi-family
regulations, The applicant decided to rezone for a planned development, giving
them the opportunity to customize the regulations for their tract of land. Upon
receipt of their site plan, staff chose multi-family as the standard to compare this
facility too.
Chairman Barfield opened the public hearing and called for any proponents.
Mr, Patrick Barber, Aguirre Group, presented this request. Mr. Barber stated
they are planning on putting fencing along the west property line where they abut
the houses from Emerald Lakes and they wanted to leave the remaining
southwest property line open, with landscaping along there.
Much discussion ensued between the Commissioners regarding the masonry
screening wall required along this property and the residential property in
Emerald Lakes Addition, The Commissioners determined that they would like to
see a masonry screening wall along the west property line where the residential
homes from Emerald Lakes Addition abut; they would like to see a wrought iron
fence with concrete columns from the southwest property line back up to where
the residential homes in Emerald Lakes Addition abut, excluding the drainage
channel. Additionally, the Commissioners stated they would like to see
sidewalks, as required, all along Emerald Hills Way, and the developer stated
they had no problem with this.
Mr, Barber stated they were requesting a reduction in the parking spaces
originally shown on the site plan from 85 to 60 - which is still within the required
range of spaces for this type facility.
The Commissioners stated they had no problem with this,
There being no additional proponents, Chairman Barfield called for any
opponents.
Mr. Glenn Phelps of Emerald Lakes Addition spoke in opposition of this request.
He voiced concerns about a lack of fencing and sidewalks between the future
development of this area and his existing neighborhood,
There being no additional opponents, Chairman Barfield closed the public
hearing.
Mr. Wood made the motion to approve PZ 97-40 subject to the following: a
masonry screening wall along the west property line that adjoins residential
property within Emerald Lakes Addition; a wrought iron and masonry column
fence along the southwest property line until it abuts the residential property of
Emerald Lakes Addition; reduced parking spaces to total 60, and masonry
screening around all dumpsters, and that a 90° turnaround be required in the fire
lane.
Mr. Bowen seconded the motion and it carried 6 - 0,
Mr, Wood asked about th
special use permit for
earing and asked for any proponents.

CITY OF
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS
Department:
Planning & Inspections
Council Meeting Date:
10/27/97
Subject: Public Hearing to Consider the Request of Steven Bosaw fOrAgenda Number:
a Special Use Permit on Lot 9, Edgley Addition to Operate an Auto
Upholstery Shop. (Located at 4166 Willman Avenue) Ordinance 2244
PZ 97-41
Mr. Stephen Bosaw operates an automobile interior repair service from his facility on Willman
Avenue. His company provides auto interior repair services to area auto dealerships; no
automotive repair is conducted at this location. His facility on Willman Avenue is operated as an
office for dispatching and for overnight storage of his service vehicles. Mr. Bosaw recently
contacted the NRH Planning Office to inquire about the possibility of working on customer's
vehicles during the day at his facility. Mr. Bosaw was advised that automotive repair work is not
allowed in the C-1 district and he would have to seek rezoning to C-2. At the September 25, 1997
public hearing, the Planning & Zoning Commission expressed concern about rezoning this
property to C-2 because the list of permitted uses includes uses which are quite intense for this
particular location. It was their recommendation to authorize a Special Use Permit for an Auto
Upholstery Shop at this location and the owner agreed with this recommendation.
Notices have been sent to all property owners having property within 200 feet of this lot. Staff has
not received any adverse comments regarding this rezoning request.
The Planning & Zoning Commission considered this request at its September 25, 1997 meeting
and recommended approval of a Special Use Permit for an Auto Upholstery Shop.
RECOMMENDA TION:
It is recommended that the City Council hold the required public hearing and consider the
recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Commission.

Subject: Request of Laura Wauson for a Replat to be known Agenda NumberPS 97-44
as Lot 1, Block 6, Hewitt Estates Addition (Located at 6802
Meadow Road)
Sometime during the early part of September, Ms. Wauson contacted the North Richland Hills
Inspection Department about renovating an existing single family home at 6802 Meadow Road.
Ms. Wauson was advised that a renovation project which exceeds 50% of the value of the home
would require the property be platted and all public improvements installed at the expense of the
developer, Meadow Road has no curb and gutter and the area lacks adequate drainage, water
and sewer facilities.
At the Sept. 25, 1997 Planning and Zoning meeting, Ms. Wauson stated that she would sign
covenants for her share of the public improvements. However, members of the Commission
asked her if she knew how much she was obligating herself to pay by signing the covenants. Ms.
Wauson stated she was not aware of the total costs. The Commission tabled action on her replat
to allow Ms. Wauson to get with city staff and determine the costs of her part of the required
public improvements and to allow staff time to review the plat and offer comment.
The next morning, Ms. Wauson called a member of the city planning staff and stated she was
reducing the value of her renovation project to less than the 50% threshold and would not be
proceeding with the replat due to the short time frame for completing the renovation project. The
following week, Ms. Wauson advised staff that she had decided to proceed with the replat and
she was furnished a copy of the Public Works comment letter which identifies cost estimates for
the various public improvements. The total cost of all required improvements is $76,829.
Attached is a copy of the public works comment letter. Ms. Wauson is requesting a waiver of
signing any covenants for these improvements.
At the October 13, 1997 City Council meeting, Ms. Wauson addressed the Council seeking help
in getting her property platted and was advised to meet with staff. City Management staff met
with her on Oct. 15th where she stated that she only had sufficient funds to complete less than
50% of the proposed renovation work and that it would be possibly sometime in 1998 when she
would have funds to complete the remodeling project. She also stated that she had sold her
home in Hurst and had to be out of it by December 1 and needed to have this renovation project
finished as soon as possible. The following is a summary of the issues associated with this
replat:

associated with this replat at approximately $50,000. Ms. Wauson is requesting a waiver of
providing a covenant for this improvement.
2. Streets: Buck Street and Meadow Road require street improvements which are estimated at
$21,151. Ms. Wauson is requesting a waiver of providing a covenant for these improvements.

estimated to cost $2,839. Ms. Wauson is requesting a waiver of providing a signed covenant for
this improvement.
4. Sewer. A six inch sewer line extension is required within the Buck Street right-of-way. This
sewer line is estimated to cost $2,839. Ms. Wauson is requesting a waiver of providing a
covenant for this improvement.
5. Street Light The NRH regulations require the developer to install a street light at this
location. Ms. Wauson ¡s requesting a waiver of this improvement.

REQUEST OF LAURA WAUSON FOR A REPLA T TO BE KNOWN AS LOT 1
BLOCK 6, HEWITT ESTATES. (LOCATED AT 6802 MEADOW ROAD)
APPROVED
Mr. LeBaron explained that this item had been tabled at the Sept. 25, 1997
meeting to allow staff to review and comment on the Replat documents and to
allow Ms. Wauson to determine an estimated dollar amount of her obligations for
the covenants she had agreed to sign, Mr. LeBaron explained that Ms. Wauson
had previously signed covenants for all the items mentioned in the P&Z cover
sheets which included drainage, water, sewer and street improvements. A street
light is also required for this location. However Ms. Wauson is requesting a
waiver of these covenants. Additionally she is requesting a waiver of the
required street light and masonry screening fence,
Ms. Retha Templin, 6728 Meadow Road, voiced concerns regarding the
reduction in the building line along Meadow Road from 25 feet to 20 feet. It was
explained to Ms. Templin that right-of-way was being dedicated for the future
extension of Holiday Lane as a collector street and the reduction in the building
line was to keep the existing structure on this property from encroaching on a
building line.
Mr. Charles Templin, 6728 Meadow Road, voiced concerns on waiving the
masonry fence and asked about how access to this property was going to be
achieved. Mr. Templin stated that he believes this entire situation has been
handled improperly because of the limited access off of the future Holiday Lane
thoroughfare; it is being violated automatically by allowing this drive approach.
He believes the front of this house should face Buck Street, and believes it could
easily be done since the degree of this remodel is so extreme.
Ms, Wauson stated that because the way her house will be situated, the driving
entrance will come off Meadow Road and she will have a rear entry garage.
Mr. Davis made the motion to approve PS 97-44 subject to engineers
requirements; reducing the building line to 20' from the required 25' along
Meadow Road; that all covenants be in place for drainage, streets, water and
sewer improvements; require the street light and waive the fence along Meadow
Road.

MEMO TO: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Kevin B. Miller, P,E.
Assistant Public Works Director
SUBJECT: PS97-44; HEWITT ESTATES; Block 6, Lot 1
We have reviewed the subject documents submitted to this office on September 25,
1997. The following items are for your consideration. A topographical drawing is
required by the Subdivision Ordinance. This drawing was not submitted with the Final
Plat. Without a topographical drawing, existing drainage patterns through the property
cannot be analyzed. In addition, there is an existing building on this site. The location
of the building within the lot and it's proximity to building lines is unkno'M1. This review
'Në3S based solely on the information provided and existing records at City Hall. Field
verification of structures, utilities and drainage patterns should still be done by a
Registered Land Surveyor.
1. SIGNATURES: The appropriate signatures need to be added to the O'M1er's
Acknowfedgment and Dedication prior to filing the Final Plat.
2. TITLE BLOCK: The title block needs to be revised as sho'M1. There was
never an approved Final Plat for lots 1-11, block 6 of Hewitt Estates. This lot
should therefor be renumbered as lot 1.
3. ZONING: The current zoning needs to be clearly indicated on the face of the
plat. This includes the proposed lot and the adjacent lots.
4 ESCROW - $76,829.21: If escrow is to be collected in lieu of covenants for
this plat, the total dollar amount would be $76,829.21. The dollar amount is
divided as sho'M1 below
A) DRAINAGE - $50,000: This area was studied during a Preliminary
Plat of Hewitt Estates, lots 2-8, block 5 and lots 3-11, block 6. This
plat was not returned as a Final Plat due to the significance of the
necessary public improvements. A plan was developed to bring
storm drain pipe from Calloway Branch, near North Forty, to the
P.O. Box 820609 . North Rich/and Hills. Texas. 76182-0609

October 8, 1997
north of Frankie B, The concept estimate for the necessary
drainage improvements was near $300,000, The engineering has
not been resubmitted, but we have reviewed the preliminary design
and find that the improvements adjacent to this lot will be
approximately $50,000. A covenant was signed by the owner prior
to the September 25 meeting.
B) STREETS - $21,150.81: This is a corner lot at Buck Street and
Meadow Road. Meadow road is a bar ditch road which ultimately
needs to be improved to a 48 foot wide thoroughfare. The escrow
amount for half of this street and sidewalk is $13,736.65. Buck
Street does not exist today. This street needs to be installed and
eventually extended to the east. The escrow amount for half of this
street and sidewalk is $7,414.16. The total street escrow due from
this lot is $21,150.81. A street and sidewalk covenant was signed
for both streets prior to the September 25 meeting.
C) WATER - $2,839.20: There is no water currently installed in the
Buck Street right-of-way. A six inch water line needs to be
extended to the east for circulation and fire protection. The
estimated cost of the water line adjacent to this lot is approximately
$27.30 x 104.00 ft. = $2,839.20.
D) SEWER - $2,839.20: There is no sewer currently installed in the
Buck Street right-of-way. A six inch sewer line needs to be
extended to the east for future extension and collection. The
estimated cost of the sewer line adjacent to this lot is
approximately $27.30 x 104.00 ft. = $2,839.20.
5. SETBACKS: The building setback along Meadow Road should be revised to
25 feet.
6. MASONRY WALL: The Subdivision Ordinance requires masonry walls along
properties which side on major collectors. Meadow Road is a major collector.
The address for this property is also on Meadow Road. If Buck Street were
constructed, the proposed improvements could possibly utilize Buck Street as
the frontage. If that were the case, a masonry wall could be built along Meadow.
7. STREET LIGHT: Street Lighting is required by section 1-06 of the Design
Manual. An additional street light is required based on current ordinances. The
pwm97170, Page 3
October 8, 1997
installation of the light will need to be coordinated with Public Works and TU
Electric, The cost for installation of the street light will be paid by the developer
directly to TU Electric,
This review was based on no plans and was therefore only cursory. The intention of
this letter is to comment on items of significant importance to the general concept. A
detailed review will be processed if and when the final plans are submitted.

This parcel contains approximately 2.0 acres of land and is currently zoned R-1-S Special Single
Family. The property directly to the north is in the Keller city limits.

not opposed to the septic tank.
2. GPS Coordinates: The applicant has agreed to establish and supply GPS coordinates. They
will be added on the face of the mylar plat and according to city regulations.
The plat satisfies the requirements of the North Richland Hills Public Works Department and has
met all the comments of the Public Works Department.
The Planning & Zoning Commission considered this request at its October 21 1997 meeting and
recommended approval.

MEMO TO: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Julia W. Skare, P.E., Staff Engineer
SUBJECT: PS97 -49; GRIFFIN ADDITION; Block 1, Lot 1; Final Plat
We have reviewed the plat submitted to this office October 8, 1997. The following
items are for your consideration,
1. GRADING PLAN A site specific grading plan has been submitted with the Plat.
There a few revisions required by the Engineer on this plan. The revised
grading plan will need to be submitted before a building permit is issued,
2. SANITARY SEWER There are no existing sanitary sewer mains within 300 feet
of the property. The developer is requesting a septic system. Percolation tests
must be submitted to the City and County Health Department with results
showing that a septic tank and absorption field can be developed in accordance
with State and County criteria. A County Permit is required for the septic
system. The County is waiting for City approval before issuing the permit.
3. SCREENING WALL Section 355 of the Subdivision Regulations requires the
developer of a newly platted subdivision to construct a masonry screening wall
along and adjacent to a thoroughfare C4U or larger. Bursey Road is designated
as a C4U, In the past, single lots have been addressed on a case by case
basis. Public Works is not opposed to a waiver of this requirement. The P&Z
Commission waived this at the time of the Preliminary Plat.
4. GPS COORDINATES The City has obtained a Global Positioning System
(GPS) Horizontal Control Survey, City policy requires that all new plats be tied
by survey to the GPS, This will allow the City to keep the GIS up-to-date. The
Public Works Department has written descriptions for all of the GPS
Benchmarks located around the City. The Final Plat needs to include the
NAD83 Texas State Plane Coordinates for at least two property corners. The
coordinates need to be determined by a survey tied to the City's GPS
monuments.

5. SIGNATURES The appropriate signatures will need to be added to the O'M1er's
Acknowledgment and Dedication on the Final Plat.
6. STREET LIGHTING Street Lighting is required by Section 1-06 of the Design
Manual. The locations of any existing street lights need to be sho'M1 on the
topographical or Utility drawing to confirm compliance with current ordinances.
Any additional street lights 'Which may be required based on current ordinances,
needs to be coordinated with Public Works and TU Electric. The cost for
installation of any additional street lights will be paid by the developer directly to

MEMO TO: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Julia W, Skare, P.E., Staff Engineer
SUBJECT: PS97 -46; MORGAN MEADOWS ADDITION; Block 2, Lots 1 R & 2R; Replat
We have reviewed the subject documents submitted to this office on September 19, 1997,
The following items are for your consideration. Item #4, ROW Dedication will need to be
addressed prior to the Plat being placed on the City Council Agenda.
1. FLOOD PLAIN A portion of the property is located in the 1 OO-year flood plain. It
appears from the FIRM that the 1 OO-year flood plain is located in the drainage
easement.
2. WATER AND SEWER Lot 2R has a house with water and sewer services, Lot 1 R will
be provided with a water and sewer stub out when Hightower Drive is improved. The
City will provide the water and sanitary sewer stub out for these services per the letter
to the owner from Mark Bradley, dated August 19, 1997, The owner will be responsible
for water and sewer connection, access and impact fees.
3. VISIBILITY EASEMENT The intersection of Hightower Drive and Meadow Creek Road
will require visibility, sidewalk and utility easements as defined in the Design Manual.
The easements will need to be clearly indicated.
4. ROW DEDICATION Meadow Creek Road is designated as a R2U on the Master
Thoroughfare Plan. This designation requires a 50-foot ultimate right-of-way. The
ultimate right-of-way requirement is a total of 25 feet west of the existing centerline,
The ROW is inaccurately shown on the Plat. This needs to be corrected on the next
submittal.
The distance from the centerline of the existing roadway (Meadow Creek Road) to the
proposed subdivision shall be shown to determine the adequacy of right-of-way along
the route and to determine if additional right-of-way is necessary to accommodate the
proposed street. Sufficient iron pins shall be found and shown on the drawing together
with dimensions to adequately describe all perimeter streets.
5. STREET IMPROVEMENTS This plat fronts on Meadow Creek Road. Meadow Creek
Road needs to be improved to provide curb and gutter along the west right-of-way as
well as improve % of the street (15 feet) to the current City standards. The Subdivision
Ordinance requires that the Developer provide his portion of these improvements.
P.O. Box 820609 " North Richland Hills, Texas" 76182-0609
7301 Northeast Loop 820" 817-581-5521' FAX 817-656-7538
These improvements are required by ordinance. Public Works is not opposed to the
funds being placed in escrow for these improvements, The escrow amount is
$88.27/foot at 389 feet for a total of $34,337.03.
6. SIDEWALKS The Zoning Ordinance requires sidewalks adjacent to all public streets.
Sidewalks for Meadow Creek Road are included in the escrow amount in item #5
above.
7. SCREENING WALL Section 355 of the Subdivision Regulations require the developer
of a newly platted subdivision to construct a masonry screening wall along and
adjacent to a thoroughfare C4U or larger. Hightower Drive is designated as a C4U. In
the past, masonry screening walls have been addressed on a case by case basis.
Public Works is not opposed to a waiver of this requirement if the home is fronting on
Hightower Drive.
8, ZONING The current zoning needs to be clearly indicated on the face of the plat. This
includes the proposed lots and the adjacent lots.
9. BUILDING SETBACK Building setback lines need to be added for Lot 3, Block 2 and
for Lot 16R 1, Block 2.
1 O. SIGNATURES The appropriate signatures need to be added to the Owner's
Acknowledgment and Dedication on the Final Plat. In addition, the surveyors seal and
signature will need to be included on the mylar of the Final Plat.
11. STREET LIGHTING Street Lighting is required by Section 1-06 of the Design Manual.
The locations of any existing street lights need to be shown on the topographical
drawing to confirm compliance with current ordinances. Any additional street lights
which may be required based on current ordinances, needs to be coordinated with
Public Works and TU Electric. Cost for the installation of any additional street lights
will be paid by the developer directly to TU Electric.
This review was based on the plat submitted. The intention of this letter is to comment on
items of significant importance to the general concept. The marked-up blue line will need to
be returned with the next submittal.

CITY OF
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS
Department: Economic Development Council Meeting Date:
10/27/97
Subject: Public Hearing for Consideration of Applic::Ition Agenda Number:
for Tax Abatement by Columbia North Hills Hospital
Ordinance No. 2246
Resolution No. 97-46
~N Çj7-11R
On August 5, 1997, Columbia North Hills Hospital submitted to the City an application for tax
abatement of $16.5 million in expansion and improvements to its medical campus at 4401 and 4251
Booth Calloway Road.
Staff has. since prepared a Feasibility Study (IR 97-122) as stipulated in the City's Guidelines and
Criteria for Granting Tax Abatement. The Feasibility Study verifies substantial economic impact and
recommends adoption of the abatement. Significant findings of the Study include:
·
Retaining 628 employees (the full-time equivalent of 515 jobs) and adding 120 new
employees (the full-time equivalent of 93 jobs). The new positions will increase
Columbia's payroll by $2.5 million--and will also provide the indirect benefit of an
additional 67 jobs in other industries.
·
Increasing the City's personal property values by $3.46 million (with the addition of
equipment which is ineligible for abatement), which will immediately provide $19,772 in
new property tax revenues for the City.
·
Abating $16.5 million (of the total $20.8 million total) in building expansion and
improvements at 100% per year for five years.
RECOMMENDATION
City staff recommends that Council hold the required Public Hearing and act on the following items:
1.
Approval of Ordinance No. 2246 designating a reinvestment zone pursuant to Section
312.401 of the Texas Property and Redevelopment Act.
2.
Approval of Resolution No. 97-46 approving the application of Columbia North Hills
Hospital and authorizing the City Manager to execute the Abatement Contract in
accordance with the Guidelines and Criteria For Granting Tax Abatement in Reinvestment
Zones Created in the City of North Richland Hills.

Description of Proiect
Columbia North Hills Hospital (CNHH) has received initial approval from Columbia/HCA
to remodel CNHH accommodating growth in Women's Services, Outpatient Imaging,
Surgical, Emergency Services and various support departments which will be displaced
upon renovation. Support areas include: Medical Records, Respiratory Therapy,
Laboratory, OP Physical Rehab services, Pharmacy, Administration, Admitting, Human
Resources, QA/Resource Management, Education and Medical Staff Office.
The Outpatient Services expansion will be added to the west side of the hospital and give
what is now the obvious "back" of the hospital a "front" of the hospital look and feel.
Outpatients and their visitors will enter the hospital on through a new west lobby designed
specifically for outpatient services. The majority of the new square footage will be to house
pre and post-operative patients. Also included in the new space will be three endoscopy
suites and a new operating room and additional support space. The new space will be
contiguous with renovation to the operating and recovery suites which will create
convenience and efficiency for patients, physicians and hospital personnel.
The Obstetrics and Nursery departments will be expanded and renovated significantly.
Growing the number of Labor-Ðelivery-Recovery-Postpardum suits to 10 and the women's
acute beds to 18.
In addition to the hospital expansion, a Medical Office Building (MOB) focused on the
needs of health care providers of women's and children's services will be constructed on the
CNHH campus. The plan for will place the new MOB between the hospital and the existing
MOB. (See proposed site plan).
Bude:eted use of Funds
The construction will include 64,700 square feet of renovated hospital space, 16,400 square
feet of new construction and a 54,000 square foot medical office building. The cost of
construction is estimated at $9 million for hospital related construction, $6.4 million for the
medical office building (excluding tenant improvements), $4 million in equipment $6
hundred thousand in information and communication upgrades, and $9 hundred thousand in
interest and overhead. (See the exhibit A for a summary listing of the scope of the
expenditures. )
Completion of the project is vital for the hospital to retain the over 100 full-time equivalent
positions. Additionally, the added capacity will result in 93 new full-time equivalent
positions.

Margaret Johnson, 68,
Patient, Columbia Michael
Reese Hospital and Medical
Center.
Once every two weeks /
come to receive an inotropic
transfusion at the Heart Fail-
ure Unit at Columbia Michael
Reese Hospital in Chicago.
Over the past several years /
have reduced my visits from
twice a week, to once a week,
to my current level. Because
of my end stage heart failure,
/ could not walk, go shopping,
or go to the store, Thanks to
my infusions, / feel like I'm in
control now. / have faith in
myself. / can do my regular
household chores, li/œ cook-
ing, sweeping, and cleaning. /
am less of a burden on my
family.
Linda St. Julien, Director of
Nursing for Medical/Surgical,
Critical Care, and Emergency
Nursing, Columbia Michael
Reese Hospital and Medical
Center.
/ have worked at Colum-
bia Michael Reese Hospital
and Medical Center for /6
years. As a nurse, my top pri-
orities are patient care and
the comfort of the patient.
Michael Reese has always
cared about its patients and
community. Before our affilia-
tion with Columbia, we had to
provide the best care with old
equipment and snwll capital
budgets. When Columbia pur-
chased the hospital and began
operating it, that changed for
the better. Columbia under-
stands that quality patient
care comes from a combina-
tion of excellent staff and state
of the art equipment.
To Our Stockholders, Employees and Friends:
A recent Saturday morning found me roaming the aisles of my neighborhood hardware store.
While I marveled at the hundreds of choices of nails that I needed for a simple home repair project,
a woman approached me and asked if I worked for Columbia. She didn't know me, but she saw the
Columbia logo on my shirt. As soon as she learned that I worked for Columbia, she began sharing
the story of her mother's stay at one of our community hospitals. It seems that her mother unexpect-
edly became ill and they rushed her to a Columbia hospital. The woman's case proved difficult to
diagnose and she spent about a week in the hospital, moving through different units and levels of
care as her condition stabilized. The daughter told me that the family had received first class treat-
ment. One night she had fallen asleep while staying with her mother and awakened as one of the
nurses placed a blanket over her to keep her wann, Nurses who had treated her mother came to visit
her on different floors as her mother's condition improved. The woman told me that she planned to
write a letter to the hospital, thanking them for their personal attention, I hope she does write a note,
because those nurses, even though they provided quality service with the same care and compassion
as they do every day, deserve special recognition.
The chance meeting that Saturday morning was an unexpected reminder of the ways that our
employees have a positive impact on the lives of people. More important, it stripped away the
trappings of high technology and breakthrough treatments and reached to the core of our mission.
Each day, our mission is to take care of patients, Caring begins with compassion and a human
touch. The value of compassion cannot be overemphasized. No greater burden can be borne by a
patient than to think that no one cares or understands. A visit to a hospital can be frightening and
intimidating. But to this woman the fear had been lessened by the personal, caring attention she and
her mother had experienced. It is a simple and moving lesson, and a lesson that we need to take
with us into our work every day, because each day we touch the lives of 150,000 patients and their
families.
In a part of the American fabric facing so much change, it is difficult-yet valuable-to reflect
on what we achieved in 1996. It remains more important, however, to rededicate ourselves to the
basic values that shape our lives and the lives of our patients.
· Recently, two girls from El Paso received a rare stem cell blood transplant at Columbia Medi-
cal City Dallas in order to cure their childhood leukemia. The girls had been diagnosed at one
of our facilities in El Paso, but could not find a match for a traditional transfusion. Fortunately,
a team of physicians at Columbia Medical City Dallas had been working on innovative re-
search that led to the conclusion that they could substitute stem cells from umbilical cords. The
girls received a match from a donor bank in New York and the doctors infused each girl's bone
marrow with umbilical cord stem cells, Now, nearly a year later, they both have recovered.
· In December, a 22 year old Olympic runner from Rwanda received free surgery at Columbia
Raleigh Community Hospital in North Carolina to repair his injured eardrums. The surgery
should restore the 40% hearing loss that Gabriel Mazimpaka suffered several years ago during
a political demonstration in his home country. "When I get my hearing back," Mazimpaka
said, "I'll feel like I won the gold, silver and bronze medals."
· Lori Mabry survived because of innovative practices at the bum unit at Columbia Augusta
Medical Center in Georgia. In the fall, Lori came to the facility with severe bums following a
tenible car accident. Her survival depended on the ability of the physicians to reconstruct her
abdominal wall cavity.
· Genoveva Alva, 83, suffered from compression fractures in her back because of the weakness
of her bones. A homecare nurse, Dee Ramos, has assisted her recovery after she visited an
orthopedic specialist. As Mrs. Alva says of Dee, "she's not my nurse, she's my friend, a real
member of the family."

· In December, the Naughtons, who had returned from a trip to Honduras, e-mailed the Colum-
bia World Wide Web health team because they felt ill. Based on the infonnation they received
from our Web health coordinator about tropical diseases, they sought medical help at a hospital
and a physician diagnosed them with malaria,
Each week I hear dozens of anecdotes like the ones above. Each story contains common
elements-the caring and compassion that Columbia's employees and associated physicians bring to
their patients. Healthcare is about meeting the needs of people. While these stories also show that
we can bring new technology, creative thinking and the latest treatment to our patients, our most
valuable assets are our people and their compassion,
COLUMBIA'S QUALITY OPERATING PRINCIPLES
In a competitive environment we know that we must continue to find ways to deliver better
patient care. Every day, we must be willing to ask ourselves what it takes to succeed and to improve
on our past accomplishments. As a result, we have dedicated ourselves to leaming and measuring in
order to better ourselves and our service. As one team, we strive to meet Columbia's four quality
principles. Each day we all work to measure and improve patient outcomes, to measure and im-
prove patient satisfaction, to measure and improve costs, and to provide care and compassion.
Columbia's employees believe that by taking small steps to better perfonn each of our responsi-
bilities, we can make dramatic improvements in quality patient care. Robert F. Kennedy once wrote
that "few will have the greatness to bend history itself, But each of us can work to change a small
portion of events, and the total of all of these acts will write the history of our generation." Our
goal at Columbia is to take the small steps made in one facility and transfer them across our entire
network of hospitals, surgery centers and home health agencies. Our quality operating principles
create a common vision, and they work because they can be put into action and shared across our
networks.
Through our measurement programs, what we do well at a hospital in Kentucky can help
improve the services we provide in California. As a case in point, we recently created a team made
up of emergency room personnel to study the processes of our hospitals with the fastest and best
emergency services as well as those emergency departments that did not perfonn as well, The
purpose was to discover meaningful differences that can be shared across the entire system, We
encouraged peers to talk with peers to identify procedures and processes that worked more effec-
tively to meet the immediate needs of emergency patients.
A member of the emergency room "best demonstrated practices" team, Kathy Barry, a nurse
at Columbia Huntington Beach Hospital and Medical Center in California, borrowed an idea from
Columbia PineLake Regional Hospital in Kentucky. PineLake had established a central transport
pool and message center in its emergency room to facilitate admissions, take samples or tests to
labs, and transport patients. After visiting the hospital, Kathy Barry worked to implement changes to
make her emergency room more aware of the importance of getting people through the ER in a
timely manner. In Huntington Beach the staff is now more aware of the timely and accurate flow of
charts; they're "handing them off" instead of "dumping" them into a bin and hoping someone else
picks them up. The lesson is that improved quality does not result from a top-down mandate, but it
must pervade an organization and flow among peers,
COLUMBIA'S STRATEGY WORKS
More than ever, in 1996 we began to act as one company dedicated to a common purpose,
These efforts have attracted the attention of others. Fortune's annual ranking of the nation's most
admired companies included Columbia as the highest rated healthcare company. In addition, a re-
port from the Advisory Board, a healthcare research organization, cited Columbia as the new com-
petitive standard for American healthcare providers. The report cites our impressive quality record,
our growing admissions, and our willingness to invest in the future.

Dennis N. Longstreet,
Chairman, Johnson & Johnson
Health Care Systems Inc.
Together with Columbia
we are developing better
healthcare for patients while
reducing costs. Our partner-
ship has provided quality
products, worked to establish
optimal clinical care pro-
grams, and begun to standard-
ize these benefits across
Columbia's healthcare net-
works.
Eileen Foley, Mayor of
Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
When trouble strikes, the
hospital is there. I remember
thinking that I was lucky to
have familiar faces in the am-
bulance and familiar faces at
Columbia Portsmouth Re-
gional Hospital. When it is
needed, that is the place to be.
Within a day, everyone was a
new friend and confidante. I
realize how lucky we are to
have a hospital wilh a great
capacity for healing. I am still
an "outpatient" at their new
Wound Care Center.
Dr. Anthony Greco,
Medical Director,
Sarah Cannon Cancer Center.
Columbia established
and provides major support
for the clinical research pro-
gram of the Sarah Cannon
Cancer Center at Columbia
Centennial Medical Center in
Nashville, This commitment to
clinical research within our
center began four years ago
and has grown into an impor-
tant program serving the Mid-
dle Tennessee community and
beyond. The substantial finan-
cial commitment has helped
supply computer facilities, a
data manager, clinical re-
search nurses, administrative
facilities, and physician direc,
tors of the center. Sarah Can-
non functions as a "center
without walls" by also incor-
porating Columbia Southern
Hills Medical Center, Colum-
bia Nashville Memorial Hospi-
tal, and Columbia Summit
Medical Center into a coordi-
nated clinical research pro-
gram, which increases the
number of patients participat-
ing, Patients are accepted re,
gardless of their ability to pay.
An effort is underway to form
a working cooperative venture
among all the Columbia hospi-
tals with active cancer pro-
grams. The Sarah Cannon
Cancer Center is a model that
illustrates how a large corpo-
ration can provide the essen-
tial support that benefits pa-
tients and their families, and
provides a forum to develop,
test and communicate im-
proved therapies for patients
with cancer.
In a similar vein, objective third-party sources continue to give Columbia high marks for quali-
ty. Currently, 37% Columbia hospitals have accreditation with commendation from the Joint Com-
mission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, an independent accreditation agency. This
compares to a national average of approximately 10%. Furthermore, a Mercer/HCIA study placed
17 Columbia hospitals in its list of the nation's top 100 hospitals.
It's encouraging when outsiders give us high marks, but it's even more exciting when our
patients tell us that we've done a good job. Each quarter The Gallup Organization asks more than
125,000 Columbia patients about the quality of their care. According to 1996 survey results, 94% of
our patients were either "satisfied" or "very satisfied" with their stay, Again, we outpace the
industry average of 88%.
COLUMBIA'S CONTINUUM OF CARE
Weare one of the nation's largest providers of inpatient hospital care as well as homecare
services and outpatient surgery. Our networks include more than 340 hospitals, 135 surgery centers
and 550 homecare locations. We are also leaders in cardiology, cancer and orthopedic services.
More than 240,000 babies were delivered in Columbia facilities last year. Of course our goal is not
just to be known as a national healthcare provider, it's to be ONE company, acting in concert to
take care of patients. In healthcare, bigger means better technology, better services, a better knowl-
edge base and better prices, Moreover, as a friend recently reminded me, we acquire knowledge and
experience in order to share them with others, not keep them to ourselves. As one company, we
strive to contain costs, and share "best demonstrated processes" that will help improve the quality
of care.
We have continued to move forward in broadening our services in order to achieve our goal of
creating a continuum of care in each of the communities we serve. We moved closer toward this
objective in 1996 through acquisitions, construction, or joint ventures with 28 additional hospitals.
For example, we strengthened our services in West Virginia when we completed a joint venture
with the Sisters of St. Joseph of Wheeling. St. Joseph's Hospital in Parkersburg is a 375-bed hospi-
tal that serves an II-county region in West Virginia and Ohio and has a strong history of commu-
nity outreach. In addition, we improved the services that we can offer people in the northern Vir-
ginia area by completing a partnership with the Arlington Hospital Association. The venture, named
The Columbia Arlington Healthcare System, adds Columbia Arlington Hospital, a 350-bed tertiary
care hospital with a teaching affiliation with The Georgetown University School of Medicine, to
three existing Columbia facilities in the area. In the past year, Columbia announced plans to build
12 hospitals in communities that we already serve. We also added 200 homecare locations, 30
skilled nursing units, 14 psychiatric units, 9 rehabilitation units, 15 comprehensive outpatient rehabil-
itation units, and 7 ambulatory surgery centers,
In the past year, we invested $2,3 billion in our communities on capital improvements and
acquisitions. Patients and consumers have begun to recognize our commitment to quality, measure-
ment, and improvement. Patients benefit from the more than $200 million we invested in informa-
tion systems, including the Columbia Patient Information System, an electronic patient record sys-
tem that gives a Columbia hospital's medical staff real-time access to the complete records from a
patient's visit to other Columbia facilities. Moreover, we have fostered a leaming culture and each
of us understands that someone else may have a better idea than ours so that we must be able and
willing to incorporate new processes. For instance, we have established a series of panels and
advisory boards that will allow our associated physicians and medical staffs to leam from each
other, Our new Columbia Cancer Network, like the existing Columbia Cardiovascular Management
Network and the Orthopedic Excellence Panel, will give physicians a forum to meet and share
ideas. In the past year, the Cardiovascular Network initiated a pilot supply cost study. The purpose
of the study is to fmd the most efficient way to use supplies in order to improve the quality of
patient care and to find ways to keep from wasting resources, In addition, we recently began train-
ing programs in our facilities in Dallas and Nashville in which physicians practice techniques to
better perform a minimally invasive heart procedure.

Thanks to these and other improvements, patients increasingly choose Columbia facilities. In
1996 our same-facility adjusted admissions (adjusted to reflect outpatient activity) increased 7%,
inpatient admissions increased 4%-while nationwide hospital admissions declined-and our sur-
gery cases increased 7%. Factoring in our growth through acquisitions, our adjusted admissions
increased 11 % last year.
COLUMBIA'S MARKETING SOLUTIONS
In working to offer patients quality, cost-effective healthcare, Columbia will not be boxed in by
conventions. In healthcare, like other fields where change is rapid and constant, we must be innova-
tive. If we continue to think in the same ways, we can never solve the challenges that confront us.
One aspect of our new thinking in 1996 was a greater focus on marketing. In August we aired seven
television spots and seven print advertisements, educating people about Columbia and our network
of facilities and services. We will continue this campaign in 1997 with new advertisements focused
on informing people about the various services offered at our facilities, such as oncology, diabetes,
cardiology and women's services,
"Healthcare has never worked like this before," we say in our tagline. And it hasn't. We are
bringing together physicians, hospitals, outpatient centers, home health, rehabilitation care, and con-
sumer services into a single community system and we are working as partners with physicians,
managed care organizations and suppliers in order to raise quality, improve patient satisfaction, and
contain costs, Our commercials have communicated these ideas in memorable ways,
By all accounts, our marketing efforts have had excellent results. Some of the proof is anecdo-
tal, On numerous occasions, people have come up to Columbia employees and said, "What do you
do if you're pregnant and in Denver?" (from one of our TV ads). Moreover, we have other evi-
dence as well, Our name recognition has increased in many markets where we have either a new or
established presence. Finally, some of the proof is in our increased number of patients.
Our marketing extends far beyond advertising, There are many ways to differentiate Columbia
from other healthcare providers. One approach has been to create a range of services centered
around particular diseases or patient needs. The focus of the initiative is to create health manage-
ment and population-based products that give patients access to Columbia's comprehensive net-
works and allow patients to focus on the complete range of care, including wellness, prevention,
diagnosis, and treatment. Initiatives are being developed in the following areas - women's health,
senior care, oncology, cardiovascular, diabetes, emergency care, workers' compensation, and behav-
ioral health. At the same time, we want to develop a sales culture. At Columbia, we believe that our
best salespeople are our employees-all 285,000.
Hand in hand with our commitment to sales is the idea that we must put our patients' needs
fIrst. One part of this strategy is our effort to become the world's premier health information re-
source on-line. It is our conviction that increasing consumer knowledge will lead to more informed
healthcare decisions, which will both raise quality and contain costs. The Internet has emerged as
the centerpiece of our information strategy, Growth on the Internet has been exponential and our
home page (http://www.columbia.net) has won numerous awards, A recent USA Today/IntelliQuest
survey honored our home page as the best source for healthcare information on the Internet. We've
gained numerous other honors as well, including recognition as a "Top Internet Site" by U.S. News
& World Report.
Weekly we have more than 500,000 hits to our home page on the World Wide Web. Visitors
can learn about diseases, wellness, and healthy habits. They might have a look at our Columbia
virtual heart or tour the Columbia virtual hospital. The growth in interest on our Website reflects its
usefulness. During 1996, about 2.5 million people visited our Website's home page. But that num-
ber is just a fraction of the activity that we expect in 1997. In January we've already had more than
1 million people visit our Web site. The Internet also gives consumers access to leading medical
specialists during physician chats sponsored by Columbia on both America Online and
CompuServe. Here again, we continue to break down traditional barriers and expand the defInition
of patient care.

About Michelle Griewe,
Columbia Call Center
employee.
I called i-BOO-COLUM-
BIA because I had been in-
jured in a fire and needed a
plastic surgeon who could per-
fonn certain procedures. i
spoke with Michelle Griewe,
who went to great lengths to
find a doctor for me-searching
the physician referral data-
base and calling a hospital for
medical staffing assistance. I
was frantic but Michelle was
very nice and patient with me,
and she was concerned that I
get the right help. I wouldn't
have known what to do if I
didn't have the resources of
the physician referral line. Al-
so, I was very impressed with
the level of customer service I
received.
Francene Wehrer, Coordinator
for Health Services, Aurora
(Colorado) Schools.
One of our nurses had a
dream. She saw a need to im-
prove healthcare for our stu-
dents. I said, how are we go-
ing to do it? She said, "we
need a mobile van. " Now the
dream has come true. Five
days a week, year round, a Co-
lumbia van heads out in one
of Aurora's under-served
neighborhoods. On board are
a Columbia physician and
nurse practitioner-along with
state of the art equipment, two
exam rooms, and a mobile
lab. We're serving kids we've
never served before-and their
families.
Todny, St, Joseph's Hos-
pital is breaking new ground
in more ways than one. The
hospital is initiating several
new projects, enhancing exist-
ing programs, and implement-
ing aggressive community out-
reach programs. St. Joseph's
is working closely with mem-
bers of its statewide network
to strengthen its behavioral
health program, as well as
other services. Columbia is a
partner that respects the mis-
sion, vision, and values of St,
Joseph's Hospital. Evidence of
this is Columbia's willingness
to continue our tradition of
providing spiritual care, an es-
senlial element of holistic
care. Hospital employees are
using the vast resources and
expertise of other Columbia
hospitals to initiate m£lny posi-
tive changes al St. Joseph's.
At lhe same time, they find
comfort in knowing the hospi-
tal, in partnership with Colum-
bia, rem£lins focused on pro-
viding the compassionate care
patients have come to expect
over the years.
Sister Christine Riley,
President of the Sisters of
St. Joseph of Wheeling,
West Virginia.
Visitors to our Website and consumers can also make a direct connection to our toll-free
physician referral number, l-800-COLUMBIA. To handle the volume of calls, we opened a state-
of-the-art call center in Bedford, Texas. The Columbia Call Center, which opened in July, now
averages about 30,000 calls per month. Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the service
allows callers to find a physician who meets their specific healthcare needs in the most convenient
location.
COLUMBIA'S COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITIES, FAMILIES, AND CHILDREN
Our mission is to take care of patients, By providing quality, cost-effective healthcare services
we can have an impact on the communities that we serve. Our community involvement extends
beyond our commitment to helping patients.
Local communities benefit through the taxes that we pay, In 1996, Columbia incurred
almost $2 billion in federal, state and local taxes. This money supports local needs and infra-
structure, such as roads and schools. We also take care of patients who cannot afford to pay
their bills. Last year we provided more than $1.4 billion in uncompensated care,
In many ways our investor-ownership strengthens our relationships with communities. In es-
sence, we are publicly owned and publicly accountable, In addition, Columbia encourages its em-
ployees to be socially responsible in their community by contributing to United Way and other local
charities. In September, when we sponsored Columbia Community Day, some 18,000 Columbia
employees across the nation repaired homes for the poor and elderly, built playgrounds for children,
collected food and clothing, sponsored and participated in fund-raisers and took part in dozens of
other community enhancing activities.
On January 24, 1997, President Bill Clinton, fonner President George Bush and Colin Powell
announced Columbia's commitment to immunize one million children by the year 2000 in conjunc-
tion with "The President's Summit for America's Future," a program aimed at bringing America to
a new level of volunteer service.
At the end of each day, everyone in healthcare should ask themselves these questions: Have
we been fair? Have we treated people right? Have we improved our communities? Columbia em-
ployees can answer yes to each of these questions.
COLUMBIA'S FUTURE
Already in 1997, we have begun to look for new ways to increase the quality of the services
that we offer. In January, for example, we announced plans to acquire Value Health, Inc" a spe-
cialty healthcare services company that generated approximately $2.0 billion in revenues in 1996.
With its more than 50 million members in its general medical, mental health, prescription drug, and
workers' compensation networks, Value Health will provide an important component of Columbia's
comprehensive healthcare solution.
We're moving in new directions that empower consumers in areas that just a generation ago
would have seemed like fantasy. We are on the cutting edge of laser surgery, which can reduce
costs, decrease the time a patient must spend in the hospital and speed the patient's recovery. New
fonns of communication, like the Internet, allow scores of consumers to interact in real-time with
healthcare experts who may be hundreds of miles away. Better technology results in more infonned
consumers better able to participate in their own health and wellness decisions.
In order to ensure that healthcare works best for patients and consumers, we have to create a
fairer system. While healthcare spending in 1996 increased at its lowest rate in 30 years and medical
inflation is . lower than general inflation, Medicare stands five years from insolvency and the number
of uninsured has increased. Americans and their elected representatives need to consider fundamen-
tal and systemic improvements to healthcare, not short-tenn patches that do not improve incentives
or address fundamental problems. While Congress and the President debate the issues, private indus-
try has implemented changes that have begun to control costs. This is a good beginning, but it is
only a beginning. We need to find new and creative ways for available funds to be spent more fairly
to ensure that all Americans have access to quality care.
6
We need to allow markets to work, because markets improve services and empower consumers. We
need to remove burdensome regulations, like certificate-of-need laws, that restrict competition and
choice. Competition and choice will lower cost, improve quality, and allow the market to match
services to the demands of local communities. Competitive markets have been the driving force in
providing quality products and services throughout our history. Healthcare should be no exception.
Healthcare will continue to change, but there will remain one constant--our mission to provide
better patient care. Healthcare means people treating people with compassion, dignity and respect.
Columbia will continue to meet this fundamental mission, and with the commitment of our dedi-
cated employees and associated physicians, we will be a leader in the new millennium of quality
care.

flows of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia" or the "Company") which should be
read in conjunction with the following discussion and analysis.
Background Information and Business Strategy
Healthtrust Merger
In April 1995, Columbia completed a merger transaction with Healthtrust, Inc.-The Hospital
Company ("Healthtrust") (the "Healthtrust Merger"), At the time of the Healthtrust Merger,
Healthtrust operated 117 hospitals (excluding 2 hospitals which are accounted for using the
equity method) and certain other ancillary healthcare facilities located in twenty-two states with
annual revenues of approximately $3.4 billion. For accounting purposes, the Healthtrust Merger
was treated as a pooling of interests, Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements and selected financial and operating data included in this discussion and analysis give
retroactive effect to the Healthtrust Merger and include the combined operations of Columbia and
Healthtrust for all periods presented.
MCA Merger

Inc. ("MCA") (the "MCA Merger"). MCA was a national provider of alternative-site healthcare
services through the operation of free-standing surgical centers and certain other outpatient,
ancillary facilities located in twenty-six states with annual revenues in excess of $400 million. The
MCA Merger was accounted for under the purchase method, and accordingly, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements and selected financial and operating data included in this
discussion and analysis include the operations of MCA since September 1994,
EPIC Merger
Prior to the merger with Columbia, Healthtrust completed a merger transaction with EPIC
Holdings, Inc. ("EPIC") (the "EPIC Merger") in May 1994. EPIC was a healthcare services
provider that owned and operated 32 general acute care hospitals with annual revenues in excess
of $1 billion. The EPIC Merger was accounted for under the purchase method, and accordingly,
the accompanying consolidated financial statements and selected financial and operating data
included in this discussion and analysis include the operations of EPIC since May 1994,
HCA Merger
Columbia Healthcare Corporation ("CHC") completed a merger transaction with HCA-
Hospital Corporation of America ("HCA") (the "HCA Merger") in February 1994. In connection
with the transaction, CHC changed its name to Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation. At the
time of the HCA Merger, HCA operated 97 hospitals located in twenty-one states with annual
revenues in excess of $5 billion. For accounting purposes, the HCA Merger was treated as a
pooling of interests. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and selected
financial and operating data included in this discussion and analysis give retroactive effect to the
HCA Merger and include the combined operations of CHC and HCA for all periods presented.

Background Information and Business Strategy (Continued)
Business Strategy
Columbia's business strategy centers on working with physicians and other healthcare
providers to develop comprehensive, integrated healthcare delivery networks in targeted markets,
This strategy typically involves significant healthcare facility acquisition and consolidation
activities.
During the past several years, hospital industry inpatient admission trends have been
adversely impacted by cost containment efforts initiated by federal and state governments and
various third-party payers, including health mai:µtenance organizations, preferred provider
organizations, commercial insurance companies and employer-sponsored networks. In addition, a
significant number of medical procedures have shifted from inpatient to less expensive outpatient
settings as a result of both cost containment pressures and advances in medical technology.
In response to changes in the healthcare industry, Columbia has developed the following
strategy to provide the highest quality healthcare services at the lowest possible cost:
Deliver high quality services-Through the use of clinical information systems and continuous
quality enhancement programs, Columbia focuses on patient outcomes and strives to continuously
improve the quality of care and service provided to patients.
Become a significant provider of services-Columbia attempts to (i) consolidate services to
reduce costs and (ii) develop the geographic coverage necessary for inclusion in managed care and
employer-sponsored networks in each market.
Provide a comprehensive range of services-In addition to the operation of general, acute care
hospitals, Columbia also operates psychiatric and rehabilitation facilities, outpatient surgery and
diagnostic centers, home health agencies and facilities providing other healthcare related services.
This strategy enables Columbia to attract business from managed care plans and major employers
seeking efficient access to a wide array of healthcare services.

to be incurred in future periods and excluding such amounts will allow users to better identifY operating trends for
comparison with other companies. The costs excluded are significant and have a material effect on operations and
liquidity. Excluding the effect of these costs should not be considered when measuring profitability or liquidity or as

COLUMBIA/HCA HEAL THCARE CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERA TIONS-(Continued)
Results of Operations (Continued)
General
The Company continues to experience revenue increases and results of operations continue to
be affected by the trend toward certain services being performed more frequently on an outpatient
basis and in patients' homes. The Company has been able to achieve increases in revenues due to
acquisitions, higher utilization of home health, outpatient and ancillary services, and the
increased severity of illness of patients admitted. Although the Company's revenues have grown
in each period, the impact of volume increases and increases in patient acuity have been partially
offset by the increasing proportion of revenue derived from fixed payment sources, including
Medicare, Medicaid and managed care plans (86% of admissions in 1996 and 82% in 1995 relate
to Medicare, Medicaid and managed care plan patients).
Insurance companies, government programs (other than Medicare) and employers purchasing
healthcare services for their employees are negotiating the amounts they will pay the healthcare
providers rather than paying standard prices. This leads to these purchasers of healthcare
services becoming managed care payors, similar to HMO's and PPO's, in virtually all markets and
making it increasingly difficult for providers to maintain their historical revenue growth trends.
The growth in outpatient services (including home health) is expected to continue as
procedures currently performed on an inpatient basis are converted to outpatient procedures
through continuing advances in pharmaceutical and medical technologies. The redirection of
certain procedures to an outpatient basis is also influenced by pressures from payors to direct
certain procedures from inpatient care to outpatient care. The Company expects the growth in
home health and outpatient services to continue.
The Company expects patient volumes (admissions and outpatients visits) from Medicare and
Medicaid to continue to increase due to the general aging of the population and the expansion of
state Medicaid programs, The Medicare program reimburses the Company's hospitals primarily
based on established rates that are dependent on each patient's diagnosis, regardless of the
provider's cost to treat the patient or the length of time the patient stays in the hospital. The
Medicare program's established rates are indexed for inflation annually, but these increases have
historically been less than both the actual inflation rate and the Company's increases to its
standard charges.
Years ended 1996 and 1995
Revenues increased 12.5% to $19,9 billion in 1996 compared to 1995, primarily as a result of
acquisitions and growth in inpatient and outpatient volumes. On a same-hospital basis, revenues
increased 9.6%, admissions increased 3.8% and adjusted admissions (adjusted to reflect outpatient
activity) increased 7.4% from a year ago. The increase in outpatient activity is primarily a result
of the continuing expansion of home health and other ancillary services,
Income before income taxes increased 41.3% to $2.5 billion in 1996 from $1.8 billion in 1995
and pretax margins increased to 12.6% in 1996 from 10.1% in 1995. Excluding the effect of the
merger and facility consolidation costs charged in 1995, income before income taxes increased
16.1 % to $2.5 billion from $2.2 billion in 1995 and pretax margins increased to 12.6% in 1996 from

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-(Continued)
Results of Operations (Continued)
12.3% in 1995. The increase in pretax income was attributable to the combination of growth in
revenues and improvements in the margin. Pretax margins increased due to enhanced levels of
participation in the Company's standard purchasing contracts for medical supplies (which provide
for progressive discounts based upon the volume of purchases made by Columbia), improvements
in labor productivity (due to several work redesign programs initiated and the benefits attained
from being able to share "best demonstrated practices" among our facilities) and an increase in
equity in earnings of affiliates (primarily due to more of the Company's development activities
being structured as non-consolidated joint ventures), Supply costs declined as a percentage of
revenues to 13,5% in 1996 from 14.5% in 1995, salaries and benefits declined as a percentage of
revenues to 39.4% in 1996 from 40.1% in 1995 and equity in earnings of affiliates increased to
0.9% in 1996 from 0.2% in 1995, The improvement in pretax margins was partially offset by an
increase in other operating expenses and provisions for doubtful accounts, Other operating
expenses, as a percentage of revenues, increased to 20.3% in 1996 from 19.0% in 1995 due, in part,
to the outsourcing of certain services. The outsourcing of services contributed to the improvement
in salaries and benefits as a percentage of revenues as more of the services previously performed
by employees were performed by outside contractors. Provisions for doubtful accounts, as a
percentage of revenues, increased to 6,1% in 1996 from 5.6% in 1995 due, in part, to computer
information systems (including patient accounting) conversions at various facilities which
hampered the business office functions and collection efforts in those facilities.
Income before extraordinary charges increased 41.5% to $1.5 billion ($2.22 per share) during
1996 compared to $1.1 billion ($1.58 per share) in 1995, Excluding the effects of the merger and
facility consolidation costs charged in 1995, income before extraordinary charges increased 15,9%
to $1.5 billion ($2.22 per share) in 1996 compared to $1.3 billion ($1.93 per share) in 1995.
During 1995, Columbia recorded $387 million (before income taxes) of merger and facility
consolidation costs in connection with the Healthtrust Merger.
In connection with the Healthtrust Merger in 1995, Columbia refinanced approximately $1.8
billion of Healthtrust's debt resulting in an after-tax charge of $103 million ($.15 per share). The
Company did not incur any extraordinary charges during 1996.
Years ended 1995 and 1994
Revenues increased 21.7% to $17.7 billion in 1995 compared to 1994, primarily as a result of
acquisitions (including the EPIC Merger in May 1994 and the MCA Merger in September 1994)
and growth in inpatient and outpatient volumes. On a same-hospital basis, revenues increased
10.2%, admissions increased 4.6% and adjusted admissions increased 8,6% from a year ago. The
increase in outpatient activity is primarily a result of expanding home health and other outpatient
ancillary services.
Income before income taxes increased to $1.8 billion in 1995 from $1.5 billion in 1994 and
pretax margins decreased to 10.1% in 1995 from 10.6% in 1994. Excluding the effect of the merger
and facility consolidation costs charged in 1995 and 1994, income before taxes increased 27.4% to
$2.2 billion in 1995 from $1.7 billion in 1994 and pretax margins increased to 12.3% in 1995 from
11.7% in 1994. The improvement in pretax income was attributable to the combination of growth
13
COLUMBIAlHCA HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-(Continued)
Results of Operations (Continued)
in revenues and improvements in the margin. Pretax margins increased due to improvements in
productivity and increased discounts on medical supplies. Salaries and benefits declined as a
percentage of revenues to 40.1% in 1995 from 41.0% in 1994, and supply costs declined as a
percentage of revenues to 14.5% in 1995 compared to 14,7% in 1994. The improvement in pretax
margins was partially offset by an increase in other operating expenses as a percentage of
revenues to 19.0% in 1995 from 18.4% in 1994. This was due, in part, to the outsourcing of certain
services. The outsourcing of services contributed to the improvement in salaries and benefits as a
percentage of revenues as more of the services previously performed by employees were performed
by outside contractors.
Income before extraordinary charges increased 14.6% to $1.1 billion ($1.58 per share) during
1995 compared to $929 million ($1.44 per share) in 1994. Excluding the effects of the merger and
facility consolidation costs charged in 1995 and 1994, income before extraordinary charges
increased 26.0% to $1.3 billion ($1.93 per share) in 1995 compared to $1.0 billion ($1.60 per share)
in 1994.
During 1995, Columbia recorded $105 million of pretax charges incurred in connection with
the Healthtrust Merger. These costs included severance costs, investment advisory fees, and
certain charges based upon management's implementation of actions to reduce corporate overhead
costs and consolidate management information systems. In addition, pretax charges of $282
million were recorded to write down assets to estimated net realiza.ble value in connection with
management's plans to consolidate duplicative facilities and replace facilities in certain markets.
Such charges have not had any material adverse effect on net revenues. Also in connection with
the Healthtrust Merger, approximately $1.8 billion of Realthtrust's debt was refinanced to reduce
future interest expense and eliminate certain restrictive covenants, resulting in an after-tax
charge of $103 million ($.15 per share).
During 1994, Columbia recorded $159 million (before income taxes) of merger and facility
consolidation costs in connection with the RCA Merger. Also in connection with the HCA Merger,
Columbia refinanced approximately $2.2 billion of long-term debt resulting in an after-tax charge
of $115 million ($,18 per share).
Liquidity
Cash provided by operating activities totaled $2.6 billion in 1996 compared to $2.3 billion in
1995 and $1.7 billion in 1994. The increase in 1996 over 1995 is primarily due to the cash
generated from the hospitals and healthcare facilities acquired during 1996 and 1995.
During 1996, cash flows from operating activities exceeded the funds utilized for Columbia's
capital expenditure program and acquisitions. Capital expenditures and acquisitions, including
investments in and advances to affiliates in 1995, exceeded cash provided by operating activities
by approximately $1.4 billion and were funded by the issuance of long-term debt and commercial
paper borrowings,
Working capital totaled $1.5 billion at December 31, 1996 and 1995. Management believes
that cash flows from operations and amounts available under Columbia's revolving credit facilities
and related commercial paper programs are sufficient to meet expected future liquidity needs.
14
COLUMBIAlHCA HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-(Continued)
Liquidity (Continued)
A substantial portion of the merger and facility consolidation costs recorded during 1995 and
1994 relate to the writedown of recorded assets and, accordingly, did not have a material adverse
effect on cash flows from operating activities.
Investments of Columbia's professional liability insurance subsidiary to maintain statutory
equity and pay claims totaled $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion at December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively,
The Company has entered into various agreements with joint venture partners whereby the
partners have an option to sell or "put" their interest in the joint venture back to the Company
within specified periods at fixed prices or prices based on certain formulas. The combined put price
under all such agreements was approximately $1.0 billion at December 31, 1996. While the
Company cannot predict if, or when, their joint venture partners will exercise such options (no put
options have been exercised through December 31, 1996), it is not expected that the majority of
the puts would be exercised in anyone period.
Capital Resources
Excluding acquisitions, capital expenditures totaled $1.4 billion in 1996 compared to $1.5
billion in 1995 and $1.2 billion in 1994. Planned capital expenditures in 1997 are expected to
approximate $1. 7 billion. Management believes that its capital expenditure program is adequate
to expand, improve and equip its existing healthcare facilities.
Columbia also expended $816 million, $1.6 billion and $486 million for acquisitions (excluding
the MCA and EPIC Mergers) during 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. See Note 4 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of these activities. In addition, Columbia
made investments in and advances to affiliates (generally 50% interests in joint ventures that are
accounted for using the equity method) of $61 million in 1996 compared to $609 million in 1995
and $6 million in 1994.
In connection with the MCA Merger consummated in September 1994 (accounted for under
the purchase method), Columbia issued approximately 31.6 million shares of common stock
(market value of $912 million) in exchange for all outstanding shares of MCA common stock.
In connection with the EPIC Merger consummated in May 1994 (accounted for under the
purchase method), Healthtrust paid approximately $249 million in cash in exchange for all
outstanding shares of EPIC common stock.
Columbia expects to finance all capital expenditures with internally generated and borrowed
funds, Available sources of capital include public or private debt, commercial paper, unused bank
revolving credit facilities and equity. At December 31, 1996, there were projects under
construction which had an estimated additional cost to complete and equip of approximately $1.2
billion.
Subsequent to December 31, 1996, Columbia amended its revolving credit agreements (the
"Credit Facilities") from a $2.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility and a $1.5 billion 364-day
revolving credit facility to a $2.0 billion five-year revolving credit facility and a $2.0 billion 364-
day revolving credit facility, respectively. Borrowings under the 364-day revolving credit facility
do not mature until one year subsequent to the end of the 364-day period. The Credit Facilities
15
COLUMBIA/HCA HEALTH CARE CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-(Continued)
Capital Resources (Continued)
support Columbia's commercial paper programs. As of February 28, 1997, Columbia had
approximately $1.8 billion of credit available (net of outstanding commercial paper) under the
Credit Facilities,
The Credit Facilities contain customary covenants which include (i) limitations on additional
debt, (ii) limitations on sales of assets, mergers and changes of ownership and (iii) maintenance
of certain interest coverage ratios. Columbia was in compliance with all such covenants at
December 31, 1996.
Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
Various federal, state and local laws have been enacted that, in certain cases, limit
Columbia's ability to increase prices. Revenues for acute care hospital services rendered to
Medicare patients are established under the federal government's prospective payment system.
Total Medicare revenues approximated 35% of total revenues in 1996, 36% in 1995 and 35% in
1994.
Management believes that hospital industry operating margins have been, and may continue
to be, under significant pressure because of deterioration in inpatient volumes, changes in payer
mix, and growth in operating expenses in excess of the increase in prospective payments under
the Medicare program. Management expects that the average rate of increase in Medicare
prospective payments will range from 1.0% to 1.5% in 1997. In addition, as a result of increasing
regulatory and competitive pressures, Columbia's ability to maintain operating margins through
price increases to non-Medicare patients is limited,
Health Care Reform
In recent years, an increasing number of legislative proposals have been introduced or
proposed to Congress and in some state legislatures that would significantly affect healthcare
systems in Columbia's markets. The cost of certain proposals would be funded in significant part
by reductions in payments by government programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, to
healthcare providers such as hospitals. While the Company is unable to predict which, if any,
proposals for healthcare reform will be adopted, there can be no assurance that proposals adverse
to the business of Columbia will not be adopted.
Proposed Merger Transaction
On January 15, 1997, Columbia entered into a definitive agreement to merge with Value
Health, Inc. in a tax-free stock-for-stock transaction. See Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for a description of the proposed merger transaction.
Other Information
Columbia is currently contesting income taxes and related interest aggregating
approximately $338 million proposed by the IRS for prior years. Management believes that final
resolution of these disputes will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position,
results of operations or liquidity of Columbia.
Resolution of various other loss contingencies, including litigation pending against Columbia
in the ordinary course of business, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on its financial
position or results of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE I-ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Reporting Entity
Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia") (the "Company") is a Delaware
corporation that operates hospitals and related healthcare entities through (i) wholly owned
subsidiaries, (ii) joint ventures or (iii) ownership of interests in various partnerships in which
subsidiaries of Columbia serve as the managing general partner. At December 31, 1996, Columbia
owned and operated 319 hospitals, 132 free-standing surgery centers, more than 550 home health
locations and numerous other facilities providing a variety of healthcare services. Columbia is also
a partner in several 50/50 joint ventures that own and operate 24 hospitals and 4 free-standing
surgery centers which are accounted for using the equity method. Columbia's facilities are located
in 37 states, England and Switzerland.
During April 1995, Columbia completed a merger transaction with Healthtrust, Inc.-The
Hospital Company ("Healthtrust") (the "Healthtrust Merger"), See Note 2 for a description of the
specific terms of the Healthtrust Merger.
During September 1994, Columbia completed a merger transaction with Medical Care
America, Inc. ("MCA") (the "MCA Merger"). See Note 2 for a description of the specific terms of
the MCA Merger.
During May 1994, Healthtrust completed a merger transaction with EPIC Holdings, Inc.
("EPIC") (the "EPIC Merger"). See Note 2 for a description of the specific terms of the EPIC
Merger.
During February 1994, Columbia Healthcare Corporation ("CHC") completed a merger
transaction with HCA-Hospital Corporation of America ("HCA") (the "HCA Merger"), In
connection with the transaction, CHC changed its name to Columbia/HCA Healthcare
Corporation. See Note 2 for a description of the specific terms of the HCA Merger.
Basis of Presentation
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
The consolidated financial statements include all subsidiaries and entities controlled by
Columbia. Significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Investments in entities
which Columbia does not control, but in which it has a substantial ownership interest and can
exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method.
The MCA and EPIC Mergers and various other acquisitions and joint venture transactions
have been accounted for under the purchase method. Accordingly, the accounts of these entities
have been consolidated with those of Columbia for periods subsequent to the acquisition of
controlling interest.
The Healthtrust and HCA Mergers have been accounted for by the pooling-of-interests
method. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to these
transactions and include the combined operations of Healthtrust, HCA and CHC for all periods
presented.

COLUMBIAlHCA HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
NOTE I-ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenues
Columbia's healthcare facilities have entered into agreements with third-party payers,
including government programs and managed care health plans, under which the facilities are
paid based upon established charges, the cost of providing services, predetermined rates per
diagnosis, fixed per diem rates or discounts from established charges.
Revenues are recorded at estimated amounts due from patients and third-party payers for the
healthcare services provided. Settlements under reimbursement agreements with third-party
payers are estimated and recorded in the period the related services are rendered and are
adjusted in future periods as final settlements are determined. The adjustments to estimated
settlements for prior years are not considered material.
The Company provides care without charge to patients who are financially unable to pay for
hospital care. Because the Company does not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify
as charity care, they are not reported in revenues or operating expenses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months
or less when purchased. Carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due
to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Accounts Receivable
Columbia receives payment for services rendered from federal and state agencies (under the
Medicare, Medicaid and Champus programs), managed care health plans, commercial insurance
companies, employers and patients. During the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
approximately 35% and 36%, respectively, of the Company's revenues related to patients
participating in the Medicare programs. Columbia recognizes that revenues and receivables from
government agencies are significant to the Company's operations, but Columbia does not believe
that there are any significant credit risks associated with these government agencies. Columbia
does not believe that there are any other significant concentrations of revenues from any
particular payor that would subject the Company to any significant credit risks in the collection
of its accounts receivable.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
Long-lived Assets
Property and Equipment
Depreciation expense, computed by the straight-line method, was $989 million in 1996, $859
million in 1995 and $722 million in 1994. Buildings and improvements are depreciated over
estimated useful lives ranging generally from 10 to 40 years. Estimated useful lives of equipment
vary generally from 3 to 10 years,
.
22
COLUMBIA/HCA HEAL THCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
NOTE I-ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist primarily of costs in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets
of acquired entities and are amortized using the straight-line method generally over periods
ranging from 30 to 40 years for hospital acquisitions and periods ranging from 5 to 20 years for
physician practice, home health and clinic acquisitions. Noncompete agreements and debt
issuance costs are amortized based upon the lives of the respective contracts or loans,
When events, circumstances and operating results indicate that the carrying values of certain
long-lived assets and the related identifiable intangible assets might be impaired, Columbia
prepares projections of the undiscounted cash flows from operations expected to be generated by
the identified assets. If the projections indicate that the recorded amounts are not expected to be
recoverable, such amounts are reduced to estimated fair value,
Professional Liability Insurance Claims
Provisions for loss for professional liability risks are based upon actuarially determined
estimates. To the extent that subsequent claims information varies from management's estimates,
earnings are charged or credited.
Minority Interests in Consolidated Entities
The consolidated financial statements include all assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of
less than 100% owned entities controlled by Columbia. Accordingly, management has recorded
minority interests in the earnings and equity of such entities,
Columbia is a party to several partnership agreements which generally include provisions for
the redemption of minority interests using specified valuation techniques.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting primarily of
stock options.
Fully diluted earnings per share is not presented because such amounts approximate
earnings per share,
Stock Split
A 3-for-2 stock split in the form of a stock dividend was distributed on October 15, 1996, to
shareholders of record as of October 1, 1996, Retroactive recognition has been given to the stock
split in the accompanying financial statements and notes,
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1996 presentation.

NOTE 2-MERGERS
Healthtrust Merger
The Healthtrust Merger was consummated during April 1995. Healthtrust was one of the
largest providers of healthcare services in the United States that owned and operated 117 acute
care hospitals. In connection with the Healthtrust merger, all the outstanding shares of
Healthtrust common stock were converted on a tax-free basis into approximately 120,617,700
shares of Columbia voting common stock.
The Healthtrust Merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, and accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to the Realthtrust Merger and include the
combined operations of Columbia and Healthtrust for all periods presented.
MCA Merger
The MCA Merger was consummated during September 1994. MCA was a national provider
of healthcare services through the operations of free-standing surgical facilities, In connection
with the MCA Merger, all outstanding shares of MCA common stock were converted on a tax-free
basis into approximately 31,640,400 shares of Columbia voting common stock. The aggregate
purchase price was approximately $912 million, including transaction costs.
The MCA Merger has been accounted for by the purchase method, and accordingly, the
accounts of MCA have been consolidated with those of Columbia since September 1994. The excess
of the aggregate purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired (including
property and equipment of $217 million) approximated $903 million,
EPIC Merger
The EPIC Merger was completed during May 1994, EPIC was a health care services provider
that owned and operated 32 general acute care hospitals. In connection with the EPIC Merger,
Healthtrust paid approximately $266 million in cash, including transaction costs. In addition,
Healthtrust assumed approximately $713 million of EPIC long-term debt, of which approximately
$681 million was refinanced.
The EPIC Merger has been accounted for under the purchase method, and accordingly, the
accounts of EPIC have been consolidated with those of Columbia since May 1994. The excess of
the aggregate purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired (including
property and equipment of $516 million) approximated $577 million.
HCA Merger
The HCA Merger was completed during February 1994. In connection with the RCA Merger,
CHC stockholders approved an amendment to CRC's Certificate of Incorporation changing the
name of the corporation to "ColumbiaIHCA Healthcare Corporation". HCA was then merged into
a wholly owned subsidiary of Columbia. Shares of HCA Class A voting common stock and Class B
nonvoting common stock were converted on a tax-free basis into approximately 250,269,000
shares of Columbia voting common stock and approximately 28,485,000 shares of Columbia
nonvoting common stock, respectively.
The HCA Merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, and accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to the HCA Merger and include the
combined operations of CRC and RCA for all periods presented.

At December 31, 1996, federal and state net operating loss carryforwards (expiring in years
1997 through 2012) available to offset future taxable income approximated $92 million and $682
million, respectively. Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in anyone year may be
limited and, in certain cases, result in a reduction of intangible assets. Net deferred tax assets
related to such carryforwards are not significant.

IRS Disputes Resolved During 1996
In February 1996, HCA and the Appeals Division of the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS")
filed a stipulation of settled issues with the United States Tax Court (the "Tax Court") which
resolved the following disputed issues: the allocation of costs to identifiable intangibles with
ascertainable useful lives and to goodwill in connection with hospitals acquired by HCA in 1981
and 1985, HCA's use of straight-line rather than accelerated depreciation to calculate its basis in
the stock of certain subsidiaries sold to Healthtrust in 1987 and certain investment tax and
foreign tax credits which the IRS had previously disallowed. In March 1996, the Tax Court ruled
in Columbia's favor that the use of a method of accounting, based primarily on the cash method,
by certain of HCA's subsidiaries for the years 1981-1986 clearly reflected income. The Small
Business Job Protection Act of 1996, signed in August 1996, included a provision which upheld
HCA's position with respect to certain expenses incurred in connection with HCA's 1989 leveraged
buyout transaction which were deducted in the years 1989-1992 which the IRS had proposed to

NOTE 5-INCOME TAXES (Continued)
capitalize. In September 1996, the Tax Court ruled in the IRS' favor with respect to the formula
for calculating the tax reserve for doubtful accounts and in Columbia's favor with respect to the
eligibility of certain receivables for the reserve method. In September 1996, the Tax Court also
ruled in the IRS' favor with respect to the timing of the recognition of deferred income in
connection with HCA's sale of certain subsidiaries to Healthtrust, In December 1996, the Tax
Court ruled in HCA's favor with respect to the valuation of Healthtrust preferred stock and stock
purchase warrants HCA received in connection with the sale of certain subsidiaries to Healthtrust
in 1987, The Tax Court decisions may be appealed by the IRS or by Columbia once the disputes
involving depreciable lives and deductibility of insurance premiums (as noted below) are resolved.
As a result of these decisions, Columbia owed additional tax and interest of $249 million of which
$87 million had been paid in prior years, Had the IRS prevailed on all these issues,
Columbia/HCA would have owed additional income taxes and interest of approximately $1.6
billion.
Pending IRS Disputes
Columbia is currently contesting, before the Tax Court, the United States Court of Federal
Claims and the IRS, certain claimed deficiencies and adjustments proposed by the IRS in
connection with its examination of HCA's federal income tax returns for 1981 through 1992 and
of Healthtrust's 1990 and 1991 federal income tax returns. The disputed items include the
depreciable lives utilized by HCA for constructed hospital facilities, the disallowance of certain
executive compensation which Healthtrust deducted in calculating taxable income for 1991, and
the disallowance of certain stock option compensation which HCA deducted in calculating taxable
income for 1992. If the IRS prevails on these issues, Columbia would owe additional income taxes
and interest of $338 million through December 31, 1996.
A Tax Court decision is expected in 1997 regarding HCA's claim that insurance premiums
paid to its wholly-owned insurance subsidiary are deductible. Through December 31, 1996,
Columbia is seeking a refund totaling $212 million.
Management believes that HCA and Healthtrust properly reported income and paid taxes in
accordance with applicable laws and agreements established with the IRS during previous
examinations, and that final resolution of these disputes will not have a material adverse effect
on the results of operations or financial position of Columbia.
NOTE 6-PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY RISKS
Provisions for professional liability risks, including expenses incident to claim settlements,
were $233 million for 1996, $177 million for 1995 and $134 million for 1994. A substantial portion
of professional liability risks is insured through a wholly owned insurance subsidiary of Columbia.
Columbia paid premiums to the insurance subsidiary of $224 million in 1996, $270 million in 1995
(including $83 million related to prior years), and $253 million in 1994 (including $146 million
related to prior years).
Allowances for professional liability risks, included principally in deferred credits and other
liabilities, were $1.2 billion at both December 31, 1996 and 1995.

Credit Facilities
Subsequent to December 31, 1996, Columbia amended its revolving credit agreements (the
"Credit Facilities") from a $2.5 billion five-year revolving credit agreement and a $1.5 billion 364-
day revolving credit agreement to a $2,0 billion five-year revolving credit agreement and a $2.0
billion 364-day revolving credit agreement, respectively. Borrowings under the 364-day revolving
credit agreement do not mature until one year subsequent to the end of the 364-day period. The
Credit Facilities support Columbia's commercial paper programs. As of December 31, 1996,
Columbia had approximately $1.7 billion of credit available under the revolving credit
agreements. Interest is payable generally at either LIBOR plus .115% to .35% (depending on
Columbia's credit rating), the prime lending rate or a competitive bid rate. The Credit Facilities
contain customary covenants which include (i) limitations on additional debt, (ii) limitations on
sales of assets, mergers and changes of ownership and (iii) maintenance of certain interest
coverage ratios.
Significant Financing Activities
1996
During 1996, Columbia issued $100 million of 6.875% notes due 2001; $200 million of 7.25%
notes due 2008 and $100 million of 7,75% debentures due 2036.
1995
In connection with the Healthtrust Merger, Columbia completed exchange offers for
substantially all of Healthtrust's $1.0 billion subordinated notes and debentures. Columbia
defeased the remaining $44 million of unexchanged subordinated notes and debentures,

COLUMBIA/HCA HEAL THCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
NOTE 7-LONG- TERM DEBT (Continued)
Also during 1995, Columbia issued $150 million of 6,63% notes due 2002; $100 million of
6.73% notes due 2003; $125 million of 6.87% notes due 2003; $150 million of 8.7% notes due 2010;
$150 million of 9.0% notes due 2014; $150 million of 7.19% debentures due 2015; $125 million of
7.58% debentures due 2025; $150 million of 7.05% debentures due 2027 and $200 million of 7.5%
debentures due 2095.
General Information
Borrowings under the commercial paper programs are classified as long-term debt due to the
credit available under the revolving credit agreements discussed above and management's
intention to refinance these borrowings on a long-term basis.
Maturities of long-term debt in years 1998 through 2001 are $126 million, $224 million, $417
million and $226 million, respectively. Such amounts do not include borrowings under the
commercial paper program, all of which are classified as long-term based upon the maturities of
the supporting revolving credit agreements.
During 1995 and 1994, Columbia reduced interest costs and eliminated certain restrictive
covenants by refinancing or prepaying high interest rate debt, primarily through the use of
existing cash and cash equivalents and issuance of long-term debt, commercial paper and equity,
Amounts refinanced or prepaid totaled $1.8 billion in 1995 and $2.2 billion in 1994. Mter tax
losses from refinancing activities aggregated $103 million ($.15 per share) in 1995 and $115
million ($.18 per share) in 1994.
The estimated fair value of Columbia's long-term debt was $7.3 billion and $7.7 billion at
December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, compared to carrying amounts aggregating $7.0 billion
and $7.4 billion, respectively. The estimate of fair value is based upon the quoted market prices
for the same or similar issues of long-term debt with the same maturities.
NOTE 8-CONTINGENCIES
Management continually evaluates contingencies based upon the available information.
Columbia and its subsidiaries are currently, and from time to time are expected to be, subject to
claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the
ultimate resolution of such pending legal proceedings will not have a material effect on Columbia's
financial position or results of operations.
Final determination of amounts earned under prospective payment and cost reimbursement
activities is subject to review by the appropriate governmental authorities or their agents. In the
opinion of management, adequate provisions have been made for any adjustments that could
result from such reviews.

NOTE 9-CAPITAL STOCK
The terms and conditions associated with each class of Columbia common stock are
substantially identical except for voting rights. All nonvoting common stockholders may convert
their shares on a one-for-one basis into voting common stock, subject to certain limitations. In
addition, certain voting common stockholders may convert their shares on a one-for-one basis into
nonvoting common stock.
Columbia has adopted a shareholder rights plan under which common stockholders have the
right to purchase Series A Preferred Stock in the event of the accumulation of, or the receipt of
tender offers for, certain designated percentages of Columbia's common stock. The rights will
expire in 2003 unless redeemed earlier by Columbia. Columbia has authorized 25 million shares
of preferred stock. No preferred shares have been issued.
NOTE lO-STOCK BENEFIT PLANS
The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock
benefit plans. In 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for
Stock Based Compensation" ("SF AS 123") was issued and, if fully adopted, changes the method
for recognition of costs on plans similar to those of Columbia. Columbia has adopted the
disclosure-only provisions of SF AS 123. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for
the Company's stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the stock option plans been
determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards in 1995 and 1996 consistent with
the provisions of SF AS 123, the effect on net income and earnings per share would have been
immaterial, and the effect is not expected to be material in future years.
The Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation 1992 Stock and Incentive Plan is the primary
plan under which options to purchase common stock may be granted to officers, employees, and
directors. In May 1996, the stockholders approved an amendment to this plan which increased the
number of options authorized to 60,000,000 of which 35,613,000 are available for grant at
December 31, 1996. Under this plan, options are generally granted at no less than market price
on the date of grant. Options are excercisable in whole or in part beginning two to five years after
the grant and ending ten years after the grant.
In the past, Columbia has had various plans under which options to purchase common stock
may be granted to officers, employees, and directors, Generally, options have been granted at no
less than the market price on the date of grant, Exercise provisions vary, but most options are
exercisable in whole or in part beginning two to four years after the grant and ending four to
fifteen years after grant.

NOTE ll-EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Columbia maintains noncontributory defined contribution retirement plans covering
substantially all employees. Benefits are determined as a percentage of a participant's earned
income and are vested over specified periods of employee service. Retirement plan expense was
$173 million for 1996, $110 million for 1995 and $107 million for 1994. Amounts approximately
equal to retirement plan expense are funded annually.
Columbia maintains various contributory benefit plans which are available to employees who
meet certain minimum requirements. Certain of the plans require that Columbia match an
amount ranging from 25% to 100% of a participant's contribution up to certain maximum levels.
The cost of these plans totaled $20 million for 1996, $24 million for 1995 and $39 million for 1994.
Columbia contributions are funded periodically during the year.

NOTE 13-SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Proposed Merger Transaction
On January 15, 1997, Columbia entered into a definitive agreement to merge with Value
Health, Inc, ("Value Health") in a tax-free stock-for-stock transaction.
-
Under the terms of the merger agreement, which was approved by the boards of both
companies, Value Health stockholders would receive .58 of a share of Columbia common stock in
exchange for each Value Health common share held. Columbia expects that the merger will be
tax-free to Value Health stockholders and accounted for as a pooling of interests. It is also
anticipated that the combined entity will continue Columbia's existing dividend policy of $.02 per
common share.
The proposed merger is subject to various conditions, including confirmation that the
proposed merger qualifies as a pooling of interests for accounting purposes, expiration or
termination of the waiting period applicable to the consummation of the merger under the Hart-
Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, and approval of the proposed transaction by the
stockholders of Value Health. The combined entity will have annual revenues in excess of $21
billion.
A proxy statement detailing the proposed merger will be distributed to the stockholders of
Value Health, with the stockholder meeting to vote on the proposed merger expected to occur
during the second quarter of 1997. If approved, the transaction should be completed shortly
thereafter,

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT
To Our Stockholders
Management is responsible for the preparation, integrity and objectivity of the consolidated financial statements
and related notes, To meet these responsibilities, management maintains a system of internal controls intended
to insure that key employees adhere to the highest standards of personal and professional integrity. Although no
cost effective internal control system will preclude all errors and irregularities, we believe the established system
of internal controls provides reasonable assurance that the assets are safeguarded, transactions are recorded in
accordance with management's policies and the financial information is reliable.
The consolidated financial statements of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and include amounts based upon our best estimates and
judgments. These financial statements have been audited and reported on by our independent auditors, Ernst &
Young LLP, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, consisting entirely of outside directors, meets regularly with
management, internal auditors and Ernst & Young LLP and reviews audit plans and results as well as
management's actions taken in discharging responsibilities for accounting, financial reporting and internal
control. Ernst & Young LLP and the internal auditors have direct and confidential access to the Audit Committee
at all times to discuss the results of their examinations,

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Columbia/HCA Healthcare
Corporation as of December 31,1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of income,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion,
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation at December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of

been scaled back tremendously so that we can direct even more
funds into patient care, reinforcing our ability to provide
quality patient care.

To Columbia Stockholders and Employees:
When we started Columbia in 1987, the most frequently asked question was why were we
entering the healthcare field. In 1987, hospitals were struggling and many experts predicted a
future of limited growth and profitability. Our vision of the future, however, was quite different.
We saw the opportunity for improving the quality of patient care, while controlling spiraling
healthcare costs. To seize this opportunity, we dedicated our efforts to building an organization
that would apply time-tested business principles to the delivery of healthcare services. Eight years
later, Columbia's assets have grown to nearly $20 billion. Our 240,000 employees work closely
with approximately 75,000 physicians to meet the healthcare needs of 90,000 patients every day,
The point is not that the experts were wrong-actually, had the healthcare delivery system
remained unchanged, their gloomy predictions may have been accurate. Columbia's vision and the
effort to make that vision a reality have contributed to a vastly different future than the one
predicted in 1987. In 1995, we believe that no other organization made more positive contributions
to healthcare delivery than Columbia, We are focused on establishing new and higher standards
for patient satisfaction, patient outcomes, and the efficiency of healthcare delivery. This approach
and these principles will be the fuel for Columbia's future success.
Columbia's innovations are led by its employees who own more than 15% of Columbia's out-
standing common shares and who purchased more than $45 million of Columbia stock in 1995.
As a result of their efforts, our Company's accomplishments were significant in 1995. By all mea-
sures, 1995 proved to be a watershed year for Columbia's patients, employees and stockholders -
a year of transition and a year for building a foundation to accommodate our significant growth.
Patients, employers and other payors will select physicians, hospitals, psychiatric centers,
outpatient centers and home health programs that they know consistently deliver cost-effective,
quality services. We are determined to more effectively measure the quality of our services, to
develop new methods of increasing our efficiency, and to communicate our progress to the people
who select, buy and use healthcare. Further, we will market health services under the Columbia
brand. We will eagerly strive to build a household name to be synonymous with quality patient
care, both nationally and locally. We will streamline our operations to sell and deliver emergency,
home health, surgery, cardiology, maternity and other services with a high degree of consistency
and quality.
These changes keep us on the leading edge of healthcare, and because we involve employees,
physicians, patients and payors in our decisions, we believe we will stay on course. Our success
will translate into better patient outcomes, greater patient satisfaction and a more efficient
health care system for everyone. Through change, we are helping to create a new future-not just
for our Company-but for everyone who uses the healthcare system.
Accomplishments of 1995
Columbia's 1995 financial results speak for themselves - we had a tremendous year.
Excluding merger and facility consolidation costs and extraordinary charges:
· Earnings per share - $2.90, up 21%
· Net revenues - $17.7 billion, up 22%
· Earnings before depreciation, interest, minority interests, income taxes and amortization -
$3.7 billion, up 27%
· Net income - $1.3 billion, up 26%
Columbia's performance was recognized by the stock market, which rewarded our
stockholders in 1995 with a 39% increase in the stock price, Business Week magazine ranked
Columbia as the 44th largest company as measured by market capitalization -up from number
53 in 1994 - in the magazine's annual review of United States corporations. The bond market
recognized the Company's strong performance as Columbia was the fourth United States company
in 40 years to issue 100-year debentures.

Healthtrust Merger Adds 119 Hospitals
In April 1995, Columbia completed the acquisition of Healthtrust, Inc. - The Hospital Company, adding
119 hospitals to the Columbia system and widening the range of our urban/suburban healthcare networks
with its mostly rural hospitals. Clayton McWhorter, Healthtrust's President and Chief Executive Officer,
became Chairman of Columbia's Board of Directors. Mter serving for nearly a year, Clayton announced his
retirement as Chairman effective May 9, 1996, having guided us through a year of transition and success.
We are pleased that Clayton will remain on our Board of Directors.
Comprehensive Services Broadened Significantly
Columbia's networks were expanded significantly in 1995, particularly among non-hospital sectors of the
healthcare continuum. The additions include home health agencies and units previously operated by
Healthtrust.

Inpatient and Outpatient Volumes Increase
While admissions to many hospitals in the United States declined in 1995, admissions to
Columbia hospitals grew by 5% and hospital net revenues grew by 10%, excluding new acquisi-
tions. While this growth in admissions is an indicator of Columbia's good health, we are proud of
other trends as well. One particular achievement was the increase in outpatient revenues from
32% of our total revenues in 1994, to 36% in 1995.
When Columbia acquired Medical Care America, Inc. in 1994, we became the nation's largest
provider of outpatient services. Columbia also expanded its presence in home health in 1995. The
Columbia Homecare Group is one of the fastest growing sectors in our Company. Columbia is
already the largest provider of in-home healthcare services in the nation, a complement to our
strategy of operating fully-integrated healthcare delivery systems. Nationwide, Columbia is estab-
lishing local networks of physicians, hospitals, psychiatric centers, outpatient centers and home
health programs. These networks have become new comprehensive healthcare product lines to
offer to insurers, employers, Medicare, Medicaid and other purchasers of health care services, They
simplify the healthcare delivery process for patients. Our networks are setting the quality and
cost-effective standard that other health care systems must follow in order to compete.
Vision and Humanity In An Age of Change
Most of the successes Columbia employees recorded in 1995 can be found in personal, indi-
vidual stories that most of us will never hear. In Oklahoma City, for instance, after the bombing
of the federal building in April 1995, nurses, physicians and technicians at our Presbyterian Hos-
pital worked around the clock to offer medical and human support to victims and their families.
Nurses, physicians and employees from other Columbia hospitals travelled to Oklahoma City to
help meet the overwhelming needs of the community, Our employees are the best in the world,
committing themselves around the clock to the care of patients in each of our facilities and in the
patient's home. Healthcare will never move away from the skillful, heroic people who deliver care.
Everything else in healthcare is changing. New technology allows more surgery to take place
outside the traditional hospital setting; employers are increasing their pressure to reduce
healthcare costs; many hospitals are in financial trouble due to declining occupancy rates; and the
government is redesigning Medicare and Medicaid to reflect proven methods for reducing costs in
the private sector. Many providers have not adjusted to the turmoil caused by the evolution of the
healthcare system, By contrast, we view change as a facilitator. It allows an organization like
Columbia to introduce new ideas rapidly and with success, We have discovered that the best way
to prosper in a fluid market is to implement change quickly within the framework of a central
vision. As a result, we are finding new ways of providing cost-effective, quality patient care to
individuals in our communities.
As with the efforts of our employees in Oklahoma City and throughout the Columbia system,
many of our accomplishments are not apparent in the accompanying financial statements. In-
stead, they are the reasons for our financial performance in 1995 and the roots for successes to
come.
Focus on Excellence
Columbia is focused on quality and excellence. Thirty Columbia hospitals were listed among
the nation's top 100 hospitals in a study published by HCIA, Inc. and Mercer Healthcare, The
Gallup Organization, which performs patient satisfaction surveys nationwide, found that our hos-
pitals have a 94% patient satisfaction rate. The Joint Commission for the Accreditation of
Healthcare Organizations recognized our hospitals for their emphasis on delivering quality
patient care. Of the Columbia hospitals surveyed by the JCAHO in 1995, 43 percent received
4
~
"accreditation with commendation"-the organization's recognition for high levels of achievement
in quality. Only 12 percent of all hospitals surveyed in 1995 received this recognition, The Colum-
bia Surgery Group was recognized as one of only two healthcare organizations awarded a site visit
by the Malcolm Baldrige Awards Committee.
What makes Columbia different? We have created a framework and atmosphere in which our
employees and associated physicians can work together to improve the quality of care. Columbia's
strategy is to create networks of physicians, hospitals, outpatient centers, rehabilitation centers,
psychiatric centers, home health and other providers, working together as a single, local team. We
are removing much of the waste and overlap in healthcare and have created a community of
physicians and healthcare employees who can share real-time medical information about a patient
throughout the local healthcare system.
In addition, we have initiated efforts for determining best practices for specific types of pro-
grams and clinical procedures - information that again can be shared among the Columbia sys-
tem providers. For instance, in our Cardiology and Orthopedic Excellence programs, cardiologists
and orthopedic surgeons are working directly with Columbia purchasing and clinical information
personnel, along with manufacturers of surgical tools, implants and other supplies, The teams are
establishing clinical pathways for specific procedures which may lead to new designs for surgical
supplies and methods for improving patient outcomes and reducing the overall cost of a given
procedure. The results of these programs will be shared among Columbia physicians and employ-
ees.
Our resources for research and sharing are immense. Not only do we have one of the nation's
largest databases of inpatient and outpatient medical information, but many well-known and
highly respected hospitals, along with their employees and associated physicians, are members of
the Columbia system. Our resources now include: Tulane University Hospital's teaching and re-
search program; nationally renowned heart programs at St. Vincent's Charity Hospital in Cleve-
land, OH, Providence Hospital in Columbia, SC, Columbia Audubon Regional Medical Center in
Louisville, KY, Columbia Miami Heart Institute in Miami Beach, FL and Columbia JFK Medical
Center in Atlantis, FL; the cancer program at Centennial Medical Center in Nashville, TN; and
the nationally respected orthopedic program at Columbia Hughston Sports Medicine Clinic in
Columbus, GA. Through the sharing of information among our more than 340 hospitals, a hospital
in California can benefit from "best practices" demonstrated at The Wellington Hospital in Lon-
don.
We are measuring patient outcomes and using this information to find cost-effective ways to
improve the lives of patients after they leave the hospital or the care of their physician. Costs for
employers, insurers, governments and individuals will continue to fall. Universities will use the
best practices information in the classroom to teach new physicians and nurses the most effective
procedures and cures. We are building bridges, connecting the expanse of healthcare providers
across the nation so that the best will make all others better.
Community Contributions
In 1995, Columbia acquired or joint-ventured with 32 tax-exempt hospitals, Many new mem-
bers to the Columbia family have a rich history in the markets they serve, such as Methodist
Hospital in San Antonio, Tulane University Hospital in New Orleans, HealthOne in Denver and
Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine in Ohio and South Carolina. Such additions expand our ability
to serve a geographic region, help us connect local or state-wide healthcare networks and often
provide us with instant goodwill and marketshare.
Generally, when we purchase the hospital assets of a tax-exempt organization, the funds from
the transaction retire the hospital's debt and the remainder is directed into a community founda-
5
tion. The joint venture with Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine, for instance, has added more than
$130 million to several new and existing Catholic foundations. In recent years, funds generated
from transactions with Columbia have helped create $1.5 billion in private community founda-
tions. Meanwhile, the hospitals under Columbia's management continue to provide vital, quality
and life giving services to their communities, meeting an individual's needs regardless of his or
her ability to pay. Columbia provided more than $1.2 billion in charity and uncompensated care
in 1995, and paid more than $1.6 billion in local, state and federal taxes.
The foundations created through the purchase of, or joint-venture with, tax-exempt facilities
are contributing a wealth of new benefits to the communities Columbia now serves. The Rapides
Foundation in Alexandria, LA has funded a medical education program that will help locate more
primary care physicians to medically under-served areas of the state. The Seacoast Health Foun-
dation in Portsmouth, New Hampshire has established a youth foundation, assisted a program for
patients with Alzheimer's Disease, and funded dental, medical and mental health services for
local AIDS patients. The Kansas Health Foundation in Wichita, KS has helped fund school health
programs for children, underwrite medical education and research programs at local universities
and bolster the local health department in periods of shortfall.
Columbia Enters the Information Superhighway
Columbia has made significant progress toward our goal of becoming the most complete and
useful source of health care information in the world. We launched Columbia One Source magazine
in 1995. Reaching more than 4 million homes every quarter, One Source is the most widely circu-
lated health magazine in the country. In 1995, we also created an Internet home page for Colum-
bia, and by the second quarter of 1996, each of our hospitals will have their own home page. The
on-line, interactive physician chats we host are well attended, as are our KidsChats with pedia-
tricians. Soon, through the Internet, consumers will be able to reach Columbia's national referral
center to select a physician.
While we are providing useful information about prevention and medical care on the Internet,
we see this as just the beginning. We believe that physicians, nurses and patients will all commu-
nicate more effectively and immediately through the use of computers. In the not too distant
future, home and office computers will monitor a person's blood pressure and pulse rate, and if
there is any reason for concern, a healthcare professional will be notified. Physicians will be able
to monitor the progress of in-home patients on a daily, real-time basis. Family members will be
able to talk directly with a physician or set up an appointment through a television that has a
built-in computer and video camera. Individuals will carry their medical records stored in a card
they can swipe down the side of their TV/computer, enabling physicians and nurses to provide at-
home diagnoses for patients. These advancements are not idle dreams-Columbia is actively en-
gaged in programs that will make these conveniences, quality enhancements and cost-reduction
efforts a reality.
Challenges for the Future
Healthcare will continue to evolve rapidly. Columbia will continue to be at the forefront of
change because we have built a foundation upon which we can direct the changes needed to con-
tinually improve the way in which healthcare is delivered. Columbia employees share this vision
and have embraced a flexible approach to our changing environment. We understand what must
be done in healthcare and are committed to making the vision a reality.
Columbia's name is associated with quality and efficiency, and this association will continue
to grow. In 1996, we will again expand through acquisitions and joint ventures in order to more
effectively meet the needs of communities we serve and to enter new communities. We will con-
6

tinue to take advantage of economies of scale to reduce costs. We will actively seek new and
different opportunities to improve the quality of the services we provide and to reduce costs. In
1996, you will also see the Columbia name prominently associated with each of our facilities. We
will strive to increase our recognition and gain from the goodwill associated with our solid repu-
tation for quality and efficiency. We will not rely upon our reputation alone. We will do even more
to inform patients, physicians, insurers and the public about our capabilities and our progress. We
will continue improving the quality and scope of information available over the Internet. We will
open our new national physician referral center to help patients contact a local physician to fit
their needs just by dialing I-800-Columbia, We will continue working closely with physicians to
provide the highest quality, most cost-efficient care in the communities we serve.
Over the last eight years, Columbia has made many positive changes in the delivery of
healthcare. With the consistent focus and dedication of employees, associated physicians and
friends-such as volunteers and members of the National Association of Senior Friends affiliated
with Columbia-we are positioned to continue leading the charge for quality care and reduced
healthcare costs. In this way, we will contribute to better lives for patients, greater personal
satisfaction for employees and physicians, and improved healthcare for all the communities we
serve.

COLUMBIA/HCA HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Selected Financial Data and the accompanying consolidated financial statements set
forth certain information with respect to the financial position, results of operations and cash
flows of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia/HCA") which should be read in con-
junction with the following discussion and analysis.
Background Information and Business Strategy
Healthtrust Merger
In April 1995, Columbia/HCA completed a merger transaction with Healthtrust, Inc. - The
Hospital Company ("Healthtrust") (the "HeaIthtrust Merger"), At the time of the Healthtrust
Merger, Healthtrust operated 117 hospitals (excluding 2 hospitals which are accounted for using
the equity method) and certain other ancillary health care facilities located in twenty-two states
with annual revenues approximating $3.4 billion. For accounting purposes, the HeaIthtrust
Merger was treated as a pooling of interests. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements and selected financial and operating data included in this discussion and analysis give
retroactive effect to the HeaIthtrust Merger and include the combined operations of
Columbia/HCA and HeaIthtrust for all periods presented.
MCA Merger
In September 1994, Columbia/HCA completed a merger transaction with Medical Care Amer-
ica, Inc. ("MCA") (the "MCA Merger"). MCA was a national provider of alternative-site health care
services through the operation of free-standing surgical centers and certain other outpatient an-
cillary facilities located in twenty-six states with annual revenues in excess of $400 million, The
MCA Merger was accounted for under the purchase method, and accordingly, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements and selected financial and operating data included in this dis-
cussion and analysis include the operations of MCA since September 1, 1994.
EPIC Merger
Prior to the merger with Columbia/HCA, Healthtrust completed a merger transaction with
EPIC Holdings, Inc. ("EPIC") (the "EPIC Merger") in May 1994. EPIC was a health care services
provider that owned and operated 32 general acute care hospitals with annual revenues in excess
of $1 billion. The EPIC Merger was accounted for under the purchase method, and accordingly,
the accompanying consolidated financial statements and selected financial and operating data
included in this discussion and analysis include the operations of EPIC since May 1, 1994,
HCA Merger
Columbia HeaIthcare Corporation ("Columbia") completed a merger transaction with HCA-
Hospital Corporation of America ("HCA") (the "HCA Merger") in February 1994. At the time of
the HCA Merger, HCA operated 97 hospitals located in twenty-one states with annual revenues
in excess of $5 billion. For accounting purposes, the HCA Merger was treated as a pooling of
interests. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and selected financial
and operating data included in this discussion and analysis give retroactive effect to the HCA
Merger and include the combined operations of Columbia and HCA for all periods presented.
Galen Merger
In September 1993, Columbia Hospital Corporation ("CHC") completed a merger transaction
with Galen Health Care, Inc. ("Galen") (the "Galen Merger") to form Columbia. At the time of the

COLUMBIAIHCA HEALTHCARE CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Background Information and Business Strategy (Continued)
Galen Merger, CHC operated 22 hospitals and certain ancillary health care facilities in five major
markets located in Florida and Texas. Annual revenues of CHC were in excess of $1 billion. Galen
operated 71 hospitals located in eighteen states and two foreign countries with annual revenues
of approximately $4 billion. The Galen Merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Accord-
ingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and selected financial and operating
data included in this discussion and analysis give retroactive effect to the Galen Merger and
include the combined operations of CHC and Galen for all periods presented.
Spinoff Transaction
Prior to the merger with CHC, Galen became a publicly held corporation on March 1, 1993 as
a result of a tax-free spinoff transaction (the "Spinoff') by Humana Inc. ("Humana"). The Spinoff
separated Humana's previously integrated hospital and managed care health plan businesses and
was effected through the distribution of Galen common stock to then current Humana common
stockholders on a one-for-one basis. For accounting purposes, because of the relative significance
of the hospital business, the pre-Spinoff financial statements of Galen (and now those of
ColumbiaIHCA) include the separate results of Humana's hospital business, while the operating
results and net assets of Humana's managed care health plans have been classified as discontin-
ued operations.
Business Strategy
ColumbiaIHCA's business strategy centers on working with physicians and other health care
providers to develop comprehensive, integrated health care delivery networks in targeted markets.
This strategy typically involves significant health care facility acquisition and consolidation
activities.
During the past several years, hospital industry inpatient admission trends have been
adversely impacted by cost containment efforts initiated by federal and state governments and
various third-party payers, including health maintenance organizations, preferred provider orga-
nizations, commercial insurance companies and employer-sponsored networks. In addition, a sig-
nificant number of medical procedures have shifted from inpatient to less expensive outpatient
settings as a result of both cost containment pressures and advances in medical technology.
In response to changes in the health care industry, ColumbiaIHCA has developed the follow-
ing strategy to provide the highest quality health care services at the lowest possible cost:
Deliver high quality services - Through the use of clinical information systems and continu-
ous quality enhancement programs, ColumbiaIHCA focuses on patient outcomes and strives to
continuously improve the quality of care and service provided to patients.
Become a significant provider of services - ColumbiaIHCA attempts to (i) consolidate services
to reduce costs and (ii) develop the geographic coverage necessary for inclusion in managed care
and employer-sponsored networks in each market.
Provide a comprehensive range of services - In addition to the operation of general, acute care
hospitals, ColumbiaIHCA also operates psychiatric and rehabilitation facilities, outpatient sur-
gery and diagnostic centers, home health agencies and other services. This strategy enables
ColumbiaIHCA to attract business from managed care plans and major employers seeking effi-
cient access to a wide array of health care services.

accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, it is commonly used as an analytical indicator within the
health care provider industry. In addition, EBDITA also serves as a measurement of leverage capacity and debt
service ability, EBDITA should not be considered as a measure of profitability or liquidity or as an alternative to net
income, cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities or other financial statement data pre-
sented in the consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial performance.

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Results of Operations (Continued)
Years ended 1995 and 1994
Revenues increased 21.7% to $17.7 billion in 1995 compared to the same period last year,
primarily as a result of acquisitions (including the EPIC Merger in May 1994 and the MCA
Merger in September 1994) and growth in inpatient and outpatient volumes. On a same-hospital
basis, revenues increased 10.2%, admissions increased 4.6% and adjusted admissions (adjusted to
reflect outpatient activity) increased 8.6% from a year ago. The increase in outpatient activity is
primarily a result of expanding home health and other outpatient ancillary services.
Income before income taxes increased to $1.8 billion in 1995 from $1.5 billion in 1994 and
pretax margins decreased to 10.1% in 1995 from 10.6% in 1994. Excluding the effect of the merger
and facility consolidation costs charged in 1995 and 1994, income before taxes increased 27.4% to
$2.2 billion in 1995 from $1.7 billion in 1994 and pretax margins increased to 12.3% in 1995 from
11.7% in 1994. The improvement in pretax income was attributable to the combination of growth
in revenues and improvements in the margin, Pretax margins increased due to improvements in
productivity and increased discounts on medical supplies. Salaries and benefits declined as a
percentage of revenues to 40.1% in 1995 from 41.0% in 1994, and supply costs declined as a
percentage of revenues to 14.5% in 1995 compared to 14.7% in 1994. The improvement in pretax
margins was partially offset by an increase in other operating expenses as a percentage of
revenues to 19.4% in 1995 from 18.8% in 1994. This was due, in part, to the outsourcing of certain
serVIces.
Income before extraordinary charges increased 14.6% to $1.1 billion ($2.37 per share) during
1995 compared to $929 million ($2.16 per share) in 1994, Excluding the effects of the merger and
facility consolidation costs charged in 1995 and 1994, income before extraordinary charges in-
creased 26.0% to $1.3 billion ($2.90 per share) in 1995 compared to $1.0 billion ($2.40 per share)
in 1994.
During 1995, ColumbiaIHCA recorded $105 million of pretax charges incurred in connection
with the Healthtrust Merger. These costs included severance costs, investment advisory fees, and
certain charges based upon management's implementation of actions to reduce corporate overhead
costs and consolidate management information systems. In addition, pretax charges of $282 mil-
lion were recorded to write down assets to estimated net realizable value in connection with man-
agement's plans to consolidate duplicative facilities and replace facilities in certain markets.
During 1994, ColumbiaIHCA recorded $159 million (before income taxes) of merger and facil-
ity consolidation costs in connection with the HCA Merger.
In connection with the Healthtrust Merger, approximately $1.8 billion of Healthtrust's debt
was refinanced to reduce future interest expense and eliminate certain restrictive covenants, re-
sulting in an after-tax charge of $103 million ($.23 per share).
In connection with the HCA Merger, ColumbiaIHCA refinanced approximately $2.2 billion of
long-term debt resulting in an after-tax charge of $115 million ($,27 per share).
Years ended 1994 and 1993
Revenues increased 14,7% to $14.5 billion in 1994 compared to the same period in 1993,
primarily as a result of acquisitions (including the MCA and EPIC Mergers in 1994) and growth
in inpatient and outpatient volumes. On a same-hospital basis, admissions increased 1.9% and
outpatient visits increased 34.5% compared to the previous year, The increase in outpatient activ-
ity is primarily a result of expanding home health and other outpatient ancillary services,

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Results of Operations (Continued)
Income before income taxes increased to $1.5 billion in 1994 from $1.2 billion in 1993 and
pretax margins increased to 10.6% in 1994 from 9.6% in 1993. Excluding the effect of the merger
and facility consolidation costs charged in 1994 and 1993, income before taxes increased 24.7% to
$1.7 billion in 1994 from $1.4 billion in 1993 and pretax margins increased to 11.7% in 1994 from
10.8% in 1993. The improvement in pretax income was attributable to the combination of growth
in revenues and reductions in interest expense resulting from financing activities in 1994. In
addition, pretax margins also increased due to increased discounts on medical supplies. Supply
costs declined as a percentage of revenues to 14.7% in 1994 compared to 15.9% in 1993.
Income before extraordinary charges increased 28.9% to $929 minion ($2.16 per share) during
1994 compared to $720 million ($1. 75 per share) in 1993. Excluding the effects of the merger and
facility consolidation costs charged in 1994 and 1993, income before extraordinary charges in-
creased 25.8% to $1.0 billion ($2.40 per share) in 1994 compared to $818 million ($1.99 per share)
in 1993.
During 1994, Columbia/RCA recorded $159 million (before income taxes) of merger and facil-
ity consolidation costs in connection with the RCA Merger. In connection with the Galen Merger,
ColumbiaIHCA recorded charges in 1993 totaling $151 million (before income taxes).
ColumbiaIHCA incurred extraordinary charges (net of tax benefits) on early extinguishments
of debt of $115 million in 1994 and $97 million in 1993.
Liquidity
Cash provided by continuing operations totaled $2.3 billion in 1995 compared to $1.7 billion
in 1994 and $1.6 billion in 1993. The increase in 1995 over 1994 is primarily due to the cash
generated from the hospitals and health care facilities acquired during 1995.
During 1995, capital expenditures (including acquisitions and investments in and advances
to affiliates) exceeded cash provided by continuing operations by approximately $1.2 billion. Addi-
tional sources of cash used to fund the capital expenditures include the issuance of long-term debt
and commercial paper borrowings. Cash flows were also used in 1995 and 1994 to fund $83 million
and $146 million, respectively, of self-insured professional liability risks related to prior years
and, in 1993, to finance a payment of $135 million to Rumana in connection with the Spinoff.
Working capital totaled $1.5 billion at December 31, 1995 compared to $1.1 billion at
December 31, 1994, Management believes that cash flows from operations and amounts available
under Columbia/RCA's revolving credit facilities and related commercial paper programs are suf-
ficient to meet expected future liquidity needs,
A substantial portion of the merger and facility consolidation costs recorded during the past
three years relate to the write down of recorded assets and, accordingly, did not have a material
adverse effect on cash flows from continuing operations.
Investments of ColumbiaIHCA's professional liability insurance subsidiary to maintain statu-
tory equity and pay claims totaled $1.2 billion and $973 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.
The Company has entered into various joint venture agreements whereby the partners have
an option to sen or "put" their interest in the joint ventures back to the Company at prices based
on fair value. The combined put price of all negotiated joint ventures is material and could have a
significant affect on the Company's liquidity in the event all put options were exercised at the
same time.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Liquidity (Continued)
In September 1993, the Board of Directors initiated the payment of a regular quarterly cash
dividend of $.03 per common share.
Capital Resources
Excluding acquisitions, capital expenditures totaled $1.5 billion in 1995 compared to $1.2
billion in 1994 and $1.1 billion in 1993. Planned capital expenditures in 1996 are expected to
approximate $1.7 billion. Management believes that its capital expenditure program is adequate
to expand, improve and equip existing health care facilities.
Columbia/HCA also expended $1.3 billion, $370 million and $167 million for acquisitions (ex-
cluding the MCA, EPIC, Healthtrust, HCA and Galen Mergers) during 1995, 1994 and 1993,
respectively. In addition, Columbia/HCA acquired investments in and made advances to affiliates
for aggregate cash payments of $609 million in 1995 compared to $6 million in 1994 and $12
million in 1993. See Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of
these activities.
In connection with the MCA Merger consummated in September 1994 (accounted for under
the purchase method), Columbia/HCA issued approximately 21.1 million shares of common stock
in exchange for all outstanding shares of MCA common stock at an aggregate cost of $912 million.
In connection with the EPIC Merger consummated in May 1994 (accounted for under the
purchase method), Healthtrust paid cash in exchange for all outstanding shares of EPIC common
stock at an aggregate cost of $266 million. The EPIC Merger was financed through the public
offering of 5,262,400 shares of Healthtrust common stock (effected for the Healthtrust Merger
exchange ratio), borrowings under bank credit agreements and internally generated funds.
As part of its business strategy, Columbia/HCA intends to acquire additional health care
facilities in the future. Since December 31, 1995 (through February 29, 1996), Columbia/HCA has
expended $214 million toward the purchase of five hospitals (or a controlling interest therein),
These transactions, which will be accounted for under the purchase method, were financed
through the use of internally generated funds and issuance of long-term debt.
Columbia/HCA expects to finance all capital expenditures with internally generated and bor-
rowed funds. Available sources of capital include public or private debt, commercial paper, unused
bank revolving credits and equity. At December 31, 1995, there were projects under construction
which had an estimated additional cost to complete of approximately $923 million.
In connection with the Spinoff, stockholder's equity was reduced by $802 million in 1993 as a
result of the following transactions with Humana: (i) distribution of the net assets of the health
plan business ($392 million) and the net assets of a hospital facility ($25 million), (ii) payment of
cash ($135 million) and (iii) issuance of notes ($250 million). The notes were refinanced in Sep-
tember 1993.
Subsequent to December 31, 1995, Columbia/HCA amended its revolving credit agreements
from an aggregate amount of $3.75 billion to $4.0 billion. The Credit Facilities comprise a $2.5
billion five-year revolving credit agreement and a $1.5 billion 364-day revolving credit agreement.
The Credit Facilities were established to support Columbia/HCA's commercial paper programs
and replace prior revolving credit agreements. As of February 29, 1996, Columbia/HCA had ap-
proximately $1.0 billion of credit available under the revolving credit agreements.

COLUMBIA/HCA HEAL THCARE CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Capital Resources (Continued)
ColumbiaJHCA's credit facilities contain customary covenants which include (i) limitations on
additional debt, (ii) limitations on sales of assets, mergers and changes of ownership and (iii)
maintenance of certain interest coverage ratios. ColumbiaJHCA was in compliance with all such
covenants at December 31, 1995.
Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
Various federal, state and local laws have been enacted that, in certain cases, limit
ColumbiaJHCA's ability to increase prices. Revenues for acute care hospital services rendered to
Medicare patients are established under the federal government's prospective payment system.
Total Medicare revenues approximated 36% of total revenues in 1995, 35% in 1994 and 34% in
1993.
Management believes that hospital industry operating margins have been, and may continue
to be, under significant pressure because of deterioration in inpatient volumes, changes in payer
mix, and growth in operating expenses in excess of the increase in prospective payments under
the Medicare program, Management expects that the average rate of increase in Medicare pro-
spective payments will approximate 2% in 1996. In addition, as a result of increasing regulatory
and competitive pressures, ColumbiaJHCA's ability to maintain operating margins through price
increases to non-Medicare patients is limited.
Health Care Reform
In recent years, an increasing number of legislative proposals have been introduced or proposed
in Congress and in some state legislatures that would significantly affect health care systems in
ColumbiaIHCA's markets. The cost of certain proposals would be funded in significant part by reduc-
tions in payments by government programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, to healthcare provid-
ers such as hospitals, While the Company is unable to predict which, if any, proposals for healthcare
reform will be adopted, there can be no assurance that proposals adverse to the business of
ColumbiaIHCA will not be adopted.
Other Information
In March 1996, the Tax Court ruled in Columbia/HCA's favor that the use of a hybrid (pri-
marily the cash basis) method of accounting by certain of HCA's subsidiaries in calculating tax-
able income for the years 1981-1986 clearly reflected taxable income. Had the Internal Revenue
Service (the "IRS") prevailed on this issue, Columbia/HCA would have owed $614 million in taxes
and interest.
In February 1996, ColumbiaJHCA reached a partial settlement with the IRS in connection
with examinations of HCA's federal income tax returns for 1981 through 1988. Issues totaling
$486 million in potential taxes and interest payments were settled for approximately $87 million
($75 million paid in March 1994 and $12 million paid in November 1995). The payment and
settlement of these items did not have any effect on the results of operations.
ColumbiaJHCA is currently contesting income taxes and related interest aggregating approxi-
mately $600 million proposed by the IRS for prior years. Management believes that final resolu-
tion of these disputes will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of
operations or liquidity of Columbia/HCA. However, if all or a majority of the positions of the IRS
are upheld, the financial position, results of operations and liquidity of ColumbiaJHCA could be
materially adversely affected.
Resolution of various other loss contingencies, including litigation pending against
ColumbiaJHCA in the ordinary course of business, is not expected to have a material adverse
effect on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Reporting Entity
Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia/HCA") is a Delaware corporation that op-
erates hospitals and ancillary health care facilities through (i) wholly owned subsidiaries, (ii) joint
ventures or (iii) ownership of interests in various partnerships in which subsidiaries of
Columbia/HCA serve as the managing general partner. Columbia/HCA owns and operates 319
hospitals and more than 130 ambulatory surgery centers. Columbia/HCA is also a partner in
several 50/50 joint ventures that own and operate 19 hospitals and 3 ambulatory surgery centers
which are accounted for using the equity method. The hospitals and surgery centers are located
in 36 states, England and Switzerland.
On April 24, 1995, Columbia/HCA completed a merger transaction with Healthtrust, Inc. -
The Hospital Company ("Healthtrust") (the "Health trust Merger"). See Note 2 for a description of
the specific terms of the Healthtrust Merger.
On September 16, 1994, Columbia/HCA completed a merger transaction with Medical Care
America, Inc, ("MCA") (the "MCA Merger"). See Note 3 for a description of the specific terms of
the MCA Merger.
On May 5, 1994, Healthtrust completed a merger transaction with EPIC Holdings, Inc. ("EPIC")
(the "EPIC Merger"). See Note 4 for a description of the specific terms of the EPIC Merger.
On February 10, 1994, Columbia Healthcare Corporation ("Columbia") completed a merger
transaction with HCA - Hospital Corporation of America ("HCA") (the "HCA Merger"). In con-
nection with the transaction, Columbia changed its name to Columbia/HCA. See Note 5 for a
description of the specific terms of the HCA Merger.
Columbia was formed on September 1, 1993 as a result of a merger involving Columbia Hos-
pital Corporation ("CHC") and Galen Health Care, Inc, ("Galen") (the "Galen Merger"). See Note
6 for a description of the specific terms of the Galen Merger.
Basis of Presentation
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting princi-
ples requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in
the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates,
The consolidated financial statements include all subsidiaries and less than 100% owned en-
tities controlled by Columbia/HCA. Significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Investments which Columbia/HCA does not control, but in which it has a substantial ownership
interest and can exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method.
The MCA and EPIC Mergers and various other acquisitions and joint venture transactions
have been accounted for under the purchase method. Accordingly, the accounts of these entities
have been consolidated with those of Columbia/HCA for periods subsequent to the acquisition of
controlling interest.
The Healthtrust, HCA and Galen Mergers have been accounted for by the pooling-of-interests
method. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to these trans-
actions and include the combined operations of Healthtrust, HCA, Galen and CHC for all periods
presented. In addition, the historical financial information related to Healthtrust and Galen
(which prior to the respective mergers were reported on a fiscal year ending August 31) have been
recast to conform to Columbia/HCA's annual reporting period ending December 31.

COLUMBIA/HCA HEAL THCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenues
Columbia/HCA's health care facilities have entered into agreements with third-party payers,
including government programs and managed care health plans, under which Columbia/HCA is
paid based upon established charges, cost of providing services, predetermined rates by diagnosis,
fixed per diem rates or discounts from established charges.
Revenues are recorded at estimated amounts due from patients and third-party payers for the
health care services provided, including anticipated settlements under reimbursement agreements
with third-party payers.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months
or less when purchased. Carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due
to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from the Medicare and Medicaid pro-
grams, other government programs, managed care health plans, commercial insurance companies
and individual patients.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
Property and Equipment
Depreciation expense, computed by the straight-line method, was $859 million in 1995, $722
million in 1994 and $631 million in 1993. Columbia/HCA uses component depreciation for build-
ings. Depreciation rates for buildings are equivalent to useful lives ranging generally from 20 to
25 years. Estimated useful lives of equipment vary generally from 3 to 10 years.
Investments
On December 31, 1993, Columbia/HCA adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Ac-
counting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities"
("SFAS 115"), which requires that investments in debt and equity securities be classified accord-
ing to certain criteria.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist primarily of costs in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets
of acquired entities and are amortized using the straight-line method generally over periods rang-
ing from 30 to 40 years for hospital acquisitions and periods ranging from 5 to 20 years for physi-
cian practice, home health and clinic acquisitions. To the extent that operating results indicate
the probability that the carrying values of certain long-lived assets and the related identifiable
intangible assets have been impaired, Columbia/HCA would prepare projections of the
undiscounted cash flows from operations of the acquired entity over the remaining amortization
period. If the projections indicated that the recorded cost would not be recoverable, such cost
amounts would be reduced to estimated fair value.

~
COLUMBIAIHCA HEAL THCARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Noncompete and debt issuance costs are amortized based upon the lives of the respective
contracts or loans.
Professional Liability Insurance Claims
Provisions for loss for professional liability risks are based upon actuarially determined esti-
mates, To the extent that subsequent claims information varies from management's estimates,
earnings are charged or credited.
Minority Interests in Consolidated Entities
The consolidated financial statements include all assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of
less than 100% owned entities controlled by Columbia/HCA. Accordingly, management has re-
corded minority interests in the earnings and equity of such entities.
Columbia/HCA is a party to several partnership agreements which generally include provi-
sions for the redemption of minority interests using specified valuation techniques.
Earnings per Common and Common Equivalent Share
Earnings per common and common equivalent share are based upon the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equiva-
lents, consisting primarily of stock options.
Fully diluted earnings per common and common equivalent share are not presented because
such amounts approximate earnings per common and common equivalent share.
Newly Issued Accounting Standards
In October 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), was issued which, if elected, would require companies
to use a new fair value method of valuing stock-based compensation plans. Columbia/HCA has
elected to continue following present accounting rules under Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" which uses an intrinsic value method and
often results in no compensation expense. However, in 1996, in accordance with SFAS 123,
Columbia/HCA will provide pro forma disclosure of what net income and earnings per share would
have been had the new fair value method been used.
In March 1995, Statement of Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of' ("SFAS 121"), was issued.
SFAS 121 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when
indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated
by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. SFAS 121 also addresses the accounting
for long-lived assets that are expected to be disposed of. Columbia/HCA will adopt SFAS 121 in
the first quarter of 1996 and, based on current circumstances, does not believe the effect of adop-
tion will be material.

NOTE 2 - HEAL THTRUST MERGER
The Healthtrust Merger was consummated on April 24, 1995. Shares of Healthtrust common
stock were converted on a tax-free basis into approximately 80,411,800 shares of Columbia/HCA
voting common stock (an exchange ratio of 0.88 of a share of Columbia/HCA common stock for
each share of Healthtrust common stock).
The Healthtrust Merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, and accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to the Healthtrust Merger and include the
combined operations of Columbia/HCA and Healthtrust for all periods presented. The following is
a summary of the results of operations of the separate entities for periods prior to the Healthtrust
Merger (dollars in millions):

Pooling adjustments have been recorded to eliminate revenues and expenses associated with
computer information services provided to Healthtrust by Columbia/HCA and to eliminate dis-
counting of Healthtrust professional liability loss provisions to conform to the Columbia/HCA
method.
NOTE 3 - MCA MERGER
The MCA Merger was consummated on September 16, 1994. MCA was a national provider of
health care services through the operation of freestanding surgical facilities.
In connection with the MCA Merger, all outstanding shares of MCA common stock were con-
verted on a tax-free basis into approximately 21,093,600 shares of Columbia/HCA voting common
stock (an exchange ratio of 0.7042 of a share of Columbia/HCA common stock for each share of
MCA common stock). The following is a summary of the aggregate purchase price (dollars in
millions, except per share data):

NOTE 3 - MCA MERGER (Continued)
The MCA Merger has been accounted for by the purchase method, and accordingly, the ac-
counts of MCA have been consolidated with those of Columbia/HCA since September 1, 1994. The
excess of the aggregate purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired (includ-
ing property and equipment of $217 million) approximated $903 million. See Note 10 for pro forma
information.
NOTE 4 - EPIC MERGER
The EPIC Merger was completed on May 5, 1994. EPIC was a health care services provider
that owned and operated 32 general acute care hospitals.
In connection with the EPIC Merger, EPIC stockholders were paid $7.00 for each outstanding
share of EPIC common stock (an aggregate cost of $266 million, including transaction costs). In
addition, Healthtrust assumed approximately $713 million of EPIC long-term debt, of which ap-
proximately $681 million was refinanced. The EPIC Merger was financed through the public of-
fering of 5,262,400 shares of Healthtrust common stock (effected for the Healthtrust Merger ex-
change ratio), borrowings under bank credit agreements and internally generated funds.
The EPIC Merger has been accounted for under the purchase method, and accordingly, the
accounts of EPIC have been consolidated with those of Columbia/HCA since May 1, 1994, The
excess of the aggregate purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired (includ-
ing property and equipment of $516 million) approximated $577 million. See Note 10 for pro forma
information.
NOTE 5 - HCA MERGER
The HCA Merger was completed on February 10, 1994. In connection with the HCA Merger,
Columbia stockholders approved an amendment to Columbia's Certificate of Incorporation chang-
ing the name of the corporation to "Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation". HCA was then
merged into a wholly owned subsidiary of Columbia/HCA. Shares of HCA Class A voting common
stock and Class B nonvoting common stock were converted on a tax-free basis into approximately
166,846,000 shares of Columbia/HCA voting common stock and approximately 18,990,000 shares
of Columbia/HCA nonvoting common stock, respectively (an exchange ratio of 1.05 shares of
Columbia/HCA common stock for each share of HCA voting and nonvoting common stock). The
HCA Merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, and accordingly, the consolidated
financial statements give retroactive effect to the HCA Merger and include the combined opera-
tions of Columbia and HCA for all periods presented.
NOTE 6 - GALEN MERGER
The Galen Merger was consummated effective as of September 1, 1993. In connection with
the Galen Merger, CHC, a Nevada corporation, was merged into Columbia. Each CHC share of
common stock was converted on a tax-free basis into one share of Columbia common stock. Imme-
diately subsequent thereto, a wholly owned subsidiary of Columbia was merged into Galen, at
which time Galen became a wholly owned subsidiary of Columbia. In connection with this trans-
action, Columbia issued approximately 123,830,000 shares of common stock in a tax-free exchange
for all of the outstanding common shares of Galen (an exchange ratio of 0.775 of a share of Co-
lumbia common stock for each share of Galen common stock). The Galen Merger has been ac-
counted for as a pooling of interests, and accordingly, the consolidated financial statements give
retroactive effect to the Galen Merger and include the combined operations of CHC and Galen for
all periods presented.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 7 - SPINOFF TRANSACTION AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Prior to the Galen Merger, Galen began operating its hospital business as an independent
publicly held corporation on March 1, 1993 as a result of a tax-free spinoff transaction (the "Spin-
off') by Humana Inc. ("Humana"), which retained its managed care health plan business. The
Spinoff separated Humana's previously integrated hospital and managed care health plan busi-
nesses and was effected through the distribution of Galen common stock to then current Humana
common stockholders on a one-for-one basis.
For accounting purposes, because of the relative significance of the hospital business, the pre-
Spinoff consolidated financial statements of Galen (and now those of Columbia/HCA) include the
separate results of Humana's hospital business, while the operations and net assets of Humana's
managed care health plans have been classified as discontinued operations.
In connection with the Spinoff, Galen entered into various agreements with Humana which
were intended to facilitate orderly changes for both the hospital and managed care health plan
businesses in a way which would be minimally disruptive to each entity.
Revenues of the discontinued managed care health plan business (included in discontinued
operations in the accompanying consolidated statement of income) were $523 million in 1993,
NOTE 8 - MERGER AND FACILITY CONSOLIDATION COSTS

The writedown of assets relates to management's assessment of certain markets in which
there exists duplication of services and excess capacity in hospital facilities. In the identified mar-
kets, Columbia/HCA expects to be able to provide services more cost effectively by eliminating the
fixed costs of the facilities being closed and applying the fixed costs of the other facilities to a
larger patient base. The charge that was incurred is the amount considered necessary to record
the identified assets at their estimated net realizable value and is substantially a non-cash
charge. Columbia/HCA expects to have all replacement facilities in progress and to have com-
pleted the identified facility consolidations within twelve months.

NOTE 9 - OTHER BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
During the past three years, Columbia/HCA has acquired various hospitals and related ancil-
lary health care facilities (or controlling interests in such facilities), all of which have been ac-
counted for by the purchase method. Accordingly, the aggregate purchase price of these transac-
tions has been allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities
assumed based upon their respective fair values. The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of acquired entities since the respective acquisition dates.
The following is a summary of acquisitions consummated during the last three years under
the purchase method of accounting (excluding the MCA and EPIC Mergers) (dollars in millions);

Deferred income taxes totaling $379 million and $314 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, are included in other current assets. Noncurrent deferred income taxes, included in
deferred taxes and other liabilities, totaled $570 million and $536 million at December 31, 1995
and 1994, respectively.
At December 31, 1995, federal and state net operating loss carryforwards (expiring in years
1996 through 2011) available to offset future taxable income approximated $99 million and $446
million, respectively. Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in anyone year may be
limited and, in certain cases, result in a reduction of intangible assets. Net deferred tax assets
included in the table above related to such carryforwards are not significant.

NOTE 11- INCOME TAXES (Continued)
The Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") has issued statutory notices of deficiency in connec-
tion with its examination of HCA's federal income tax returns for 1981 through 1988.
Columbia/HCA is currently contesting these claimed deficiencies in the United States Tax Court.
The IRS has proposed certain adjustments in connection with its examination of HCA's 1989 and
1990 federal income tax returns. ColumbiaIHCA is currently contesting the 1989 and 1990 adjust-
ments with the IRS. In August 1995, the IRS issued a statutory notice of deficiency in connection
with its examination of HCA's 1991 federal income tax return. ColumbiaIHCA is currently con-
testing the 1991 claimed deficiency in the United States Court of Federal Claims. The following is
a discussion of certain disputed items and information on the settlement of certain items.
1981-1988 Tax Litigation
A Tax Court decision is expected in 1996 regarding disputes over the valuation of the
Healthtrust preferred stock and stock purchase warrants HCA received in connection with the
sale of certain of its subsidiaries to Healthtrust in 1987, HCA's method of calculating its deduction
for doubtful accounts, the depreciable lives utilized by HCA for constructed hospital facilities,
investment tax credits, vacation pay deductions and income from foreign operations. The IRS is
claiming an additional $190 million in income taxes and $256 million in interest through Decem-
ber 31, 1995 with respect to these issues.
A Tax Court decision is also expected in 1996 regarding HCA's claim that insurance premi-
ums paid to its wholly owned insurance subsidiary ("Parthenon") are deductible. Through Decem-
ber 31, 1995, ColumbiaIHCA is seeking a refund totaling $63 million in income taxes and $122
million in interest.
Leveraged Buy-out Expenses
The IRS has proposed the capitalization of various expenses incurred in connection with
HCA's 1989 leveraged buy-out transaction, which HCA deducted in calculating taxable income for
the years 1989-1991. If the IRS prevails on these issues, ColumbiaIHCA would owe additional
income taxes of $95 million and interest of $50 million through December 31, 1995.
Tax Court Decision-Method of Accounting
In March 1996, the Tax Court ruled in ColumbiaIHCA's favor that the use of a method of
accounting, primarily based upon the cash method, by certain of HCA's subsidiaries in calculating
taxable income for the years 1981-1986 clearly reflected taxable income. Had the IRS prevailed
on this issue, Columbia/HCA would have owed $68 million in income taxes and $546 million in
interest as of December 31, 1995. This ruling did not have any effect on the results of operations.
Partial Settlement
In February 1996, HCA and the IRS filed a stipulation of settled issues with the Tax Court
regarding the 1981-1988 tax litigation, As a result of the partial settlement, the following issues
have been resolved: (1) in connection with hospitals acquired by HCA in 1981 and 1985, the
allocation of costs to identifiable intangibles with ascertainable useful lives and to goodwill; (2)
HCA's use of straight-line rather than accelerated depreciation to calculate its basis in the stock
of the subsidiaries sold to Healthtrust in 1987; and (3) certain investment tax and foreign tax
credits which had been previously disallowed by the IRS. Had the IRS prevailed on these issues,
ColumbiaIHCA would have owed an additional $197 million in income taxes and $289 million in
interest as of December 31, 1995. ColumbiaIHCA paid $38 million in income taxes and $49

million of interest ($75 million paid in March 1994 and $12 million paid in November 1995) in
settlement of these issues. The payment and settlement of these items did not have any effect on
the results of operations.
Management believes that RCA properly reported its income and paid its taxes in accordance
with applicable laws and agreements established with the IRS during previous examinations, and
that final resolution of these disputes will not have a material adverse effect on the results of
operations or financial position of ColumbiaIHCA.
NOTE 12 - PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY RISKS
ColumbiaIHCA insures a substantial portion of its professional liability risks through a
wholly owned insurance subsidiary. Provisions for such risks underwritten by the subsidiary,
including expenses incident to claim settlements, were $177 million for 1995, $134 million for
1994 and $132 million for 1993, Amounts funded to the insurance subsidiary were $270 million
for 1995 (including $83 million of previously unfunded risks related to prior years), $253 million
for 1994 (including $146 million related to prior years) and $62 million for 1993.
Allowances for professional liability risks, included principally in deferred taxes and other
liabilities, were $1.2 billion at both December 31, 1995 and 1994.
ColumbiaIHCA adopted the provisions of SFAS 115 on December 31, 1993. Accordingly, stock-
holders' equity was increased by $27 million (net of deferred income taxes) to reflect the net
unrealized gain on investments (all held by the wholly owned insurance subsidiary) classified as
available for sale. The adoption of SFAS 115 had no effect on earnings in 1993. During 1995 and
1994, stockholders' equity was increased by $31 million and decreased by $30 million, respective-
ly, to reflect the change in net unrealized holding gains and losses on securities classified as
available for sale. Prior to 1995 ColumbiaIHCA classified certain debt securities as held to matu-
rity (none of which were sold or transferred before actual maturity). ColumbiaIHCA no longer
classifies debt securities as held to maturity.

Credit Facilities
Subsequent to December 31, 1995, ColumbiaJHCA amended its revolving credit agreements
(the "Credit Facilities") from an aggregate amount of $3.75 billion to $4.0 billion. The Credit
Facilities comprise a $2.5 billion five-year revolving credit agreement and a $1.5 billion 364-day
revolving credit agreement. The Credit Facilities were established to support ColumbiaJHCA's
commercial paper programs and replace prior revolving credit agreements. Interest is payable
generally at either LIB OR plus .18% to .35% (depending on ColumbiaJHCA's credit rating), the
prime lending rate or a competitive bid rate. The Credit Facilities contain customary covenants
which include (i) limitations on additional debt, (ii) limitations on sales of assets, mergers and
changes of ownership and (iii) maintenance of certain interest coverage ratios.
Significant Financing Activities
Healthtrust Merger
In connection with the Healthtrust Merger, ColumbiaJHCA completed exchange offers for sub-
stantially all of Healthtrust's $1.0 billion subordinated notes and debentures. ColumbiaJHCA
defeased the remaining $44 million of unexchanged subordinated notes and debentures in the
third quarter. Additionally, in connection with the Healthtrust Merger, $706 million of borrowings
under the Healthtrust $1.2 billion credit agreement were refinanced.
1995
During 1995 Columbia/HCA issued $150 million of 6.63% notes due 2002; $100 million of

General Information
Borrowings under the commercial paper programs are classified as long-term debt due to the
credit available under the revolving credit agreements discussed above and management's inten-
tion to refinance these borrowings on a long-term basis,
Maturities of long-term debt in years 1997 through 2000 are $250 million, $120 million, $218
million and $411 million, respectively. Such amounts reflect maturities of debt for certain short-
term debt classified as long-term, based upon maturities under the revolving credit agreements.
Approximately 4% of ColumbiaIHCA's property and equipment is pledged on senior collateralized
debt.
During the past three years ColumbiaIHCA has reduced interest costs and eliminated certain
restrictive covenants by refinancing or prepaying high interest rate debt, primarily through the
use of existing cash and cash equivalents and issuance of long-term debt, commercial paper and
equity. Amounts refinanced or prepaid totaled $1.8 billion in 1995, $2.2 billion in 1994 and $1.4
billion in 1993. After-tax losses from refinancing activities aggregated $103 million ($.23 per
share) in 1995, $115 million ($.27 per share) in 1994 and $97 million ($.24 per share) in 1993.
The estimated fair value of ColumbiaIHCA's long-term debt was $7.7 billion and $5.7 billion
at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, compared to carrying amounts aggregating $7.4
billion and $5.7 billion, respectively. The estimate of fair value is based upon the quoted market
prices for the same or similar issues of long-term debt with the same remaining maturities.

NOTE 14 - CONTINGENCIES
Management continually evaluates contingencies based upon the best available evidence, In
addition, allowances for loss are provided currently for disputed items that have continuing sig-
nificance, such as certain third-party reimbursements and deductions that continue to be claimed
in current cost reports and tax returns,
Management believes that allowances for loss have been provided to the extent necessary and
that its assessment of contingencies is reasonable. Management believes that resolution of con-
tingencies will not materially affect ColumbiaIHCA's financial position or results of operations.
Principal contingencies are described below:
Revenues - Certain third-party payments are subject to examination by agencies admin-
istering the programs. ColumbiaIHCA is contesting certain issues raised in audits of prior
year cost reports,
Professional liability risks - ColumbiaIHCA has provided for loss for professionalliabil-
ity risks based upon actuarially determined estimates. Actual settlements and expenses inci-
dent thereto may differ from the provisions for loss.
Income taxes - ColumbiaIHCA is contesting adjustments proposed by the IRS.
Spinoff - Certain subsidiaries of ColumbiaIHCA are parties to risk-sharing arrange-
ments with Humana.
Regulatory review - Federal regulators are investigating certain financial arrangements
with physicians at two psychiatric hospitals.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT
To our Stockholders
Management is responsible for the preparation, integrity and objectivity of the consolidated financial statements
and related notes. To meet these responsibilities, management maintains a system of internal control intended
to insure that key employees adhere to the highest standards of personal and professional integrity. Although no
cost effective internal control system will preclude all errors and irregularities, we believe the established system
of internal control provides reasonable assurance that the assets are safeguarded, transactions are recorded in
accordance with management's policies and the financial information is reliable.
The consolidated financial statements of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation have been prepared in confor-
mity with generally accepted accounting principles and include amounts based upon our best estimates and
judgments. These financial statements have been audited and reported on by our independent auditors, Ernst &
Young LLP, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, consisting entirely of outside directors, meets regularly with
management, internal auditors and Ernst & Young LLP and reviews audit plans and results as well as manage-
ment's actions taken in discharging responsibilities for accounting, financial reporting and internal control. Ernst
& Young LLP and the internal auditors have direct and confidential access to the Audit Committee at all times
to discuss the results of their examinations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial state-
ments based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and dis-
closures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and signifi-
cant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,1995
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles,

Subject:
Interlocal AQreement for Household Hazardous Waste Agenda Number: GN 97-120
Disposal with the City of Fort Worth
The City of Fort Worth is due to open the Environmental Resource Collection Center (ERCC) in November.
The ERCC, which is located at 6400 Bridge Street, will accept household hazardous waste from citizens
in cities that sign an Interlocal Agreement for use of the facility. This is one part of the Household
Hazardous Waste Program that will compliment the Mobile Unit which we purchased with a grant from
NCTCOG and TNRCC.
The Interlocal Agreement is very similar to the one that the City Council has signed each year for services
during the three yearly one day events which we have participated in with Fort Worth and Tarrant County
in the past. The major change is the deletion of the "Indeminification clause." With the opening of the
ERCC and the purchase of the Mobile Units, there will be no need for the single yearly event. NRH citizens
will be able to take their household hazardous waste directly to the ERCC which is approximately seven
miles from City Hall, located just off of NE Loop 820 at the John T. White exit. The ERCC will be open two
to three days each week. NRH will be billed for the number of households that use the ERCC each quarter
at the rate of $75.00 per household which is the same rate that we budgeted for each year during the
collection events.
To enable each participating city to keep track of the number of households using the Center, Fort Worth
was asked to institute a voucher system where citizens would obtain the vouchers from each city and hand
them in when taking their items to the ERCC. These vouchers will then be used for billing purposes to
keep an accurate count for each city. In addition, NRH Environmental Services will hand out the vouchers
so that we can then keep track for budget purposes.
It should be noted that the attached Interlocal Agreement is for "individual drop-off' use of the ERCC.
There will be a separate Interlocal Agreement for use of the Mobile Unit when it becomes operational next
Spring. Fort Worth would like to open the ERCC and operate it for two to three months before putting the
Mobile Units in the field.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve Interlocal Agreement for Household Hazardous Waste
with the City of Fort Worth for the use of the Environmental Resource Collection Center.

Subject:
Amending City Ordinance #1804 - To Address
Tobacco Use in City Parks - Ordinance No. 2249
Agenda Number:
10/27/97
GN 97-124
After receiving a request from four families of children involved in youth sports, the Parks and
Recreation Board discussed eliminating smoking at athletic complexes at their June 2, 1997
meeting. Representatives from the Richland Youth Association and the North Richland Hills Girls
Softball League were present and in attendance at the subsequent October 6th meeting as well.
The Board recommended that the Richland Youth Association add a no smoking policy to their
organizational by-laws. The youth sports associations have taken that request under advisement
for consideration. The youth sports associations had questions regarding their legal authority to
regulate use of tobacco and desired City support through signage and policy for enforcement.
The Board requested the Parks and Recreation Department post "no smoking" on the rules and
regulation signs being installed as a part of the standard park signage.
The Parks and Recreation Board engaged in considerable discussion, thoughtful debate and
deliberation, in response to citizen concerns on this issue, prior to making a recommendation to
City Council. The primary issues as discussed by the board were, setting appropriate examples
for youth participating in activities in city parks, consideration of "passive smoke" impacts on non-
smoking participants and spectators, and finally the appearance of our parks and the litter
maintenance costs caused by non-biodegradable cigarette butts.
The Board placed emphasis on the impacts to spectators and cited numerous examples of both
public and private "open air" sports venues that currently prohibit smoking including, Birdville
Stadium,The Ballpark in Arlington and all high school sport fields throughout the state.
The Board also discussed the advantages and disadvantages of various enforcement issues and
do not anticipate additional police support to be necessary. Police intervention is currently not a
problem or impact at our facilities that currently prohibit smoking by policy such as NRH20 and
the Richland Tennis Center. The Board is not requesting an aggressive pursuit of smokers but
more of a responsive approach on a complaint basis. The impacts on the police department
should be nominal, much like enforcement of our litter laws which are fairly low priority items
handled by officers on a complaint basis or by virtue of passively observing violations.

The Board also directed staff to research and evaluate a mechanism to legally prohibit smoking.
Additionally, the City Manager recently received a request to eliminate smoking in all parks.
Options for Council consideration could be:
1. The Parks and Recreation Board, at their October 6, 1997 meeting, approved a
recommendation to the City Council for the adoption of an ordinance to create a
smoke-free and tobacco free environment within all city parks.
Attached is a draft of the proposed Ordinance the Parks and Recreation Board
recommended for City Council consideration (Draft Ordinance "A").
Staff would like to provide two alternative recommendations, with proposed ordinances attached,
for Council consideration as follows:
2. Prohibit use of tobacco within 20 feet of youth sporting events including courts and
bleachers, playgrounds, concession buildings, restrooms and posted natural areas.
Spectators or park users wishing to use tobacco would be required to leave the field, court,
bleacher and playground area by a distance of at least 20 feet. This distance will allow for
spectators to view a game and parents to watch their children on a playground. This
alternative eliminates spectators and the children from the immediate exposure to tobacco,
as well as improving litter control in and around the bleacher areas (Draft Ordinance "B").
',--
3.
Allow the use of tobacco in paved parking areas only.
This alternative creates a tobacco free environment, improves litter control, and reduces
the risk for potential grass fires, especially in non-irrigated parks, by making it simplier to
determine a violation of the ordinance without a distance regulation. This alternative will
enhance the City's enforcement efforts (Draft Ordinance "C").
In addition to these alternatives, use of tobacco products would continue to be prohibited in the
Recreation Center, Senior Adult Centers, NRH20 Family Water Park, Richland Tennis Center and
any other park projects jointly developed on school district property.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that Council review the recommendations of the Park and Recreation Board
and Staff and consider amending Ordinance No. 1804 to include addressing tobacco use in city
parks.

Dear Me Browne:
\Ve are writing to you as residents of North Richland Hills and as concerned parents.
Our children participate in and benefit greatly by the sports programs offered by Richland
Youth Association at Richfield Park. The cooperative effort of your Department's staff and
the many volunteers have made this facility one we should all be proud of
But we're not, because of one problem_ Sl\IOKING! The many thoughtless adults who
continually smoke while sitting in the bleachers, standing by the bleachers or along the fences
next to the playing fields and the dug-outs obviously have no consideration or respect for the
children who are affected by their second-hand smoke, Not to mention how unsightly and
littered the grounds have become from all the extinguished cigarette butts.
We have been told that the reason there is no ordinance prohibiting smoking at the park
facilities is because they are outdoors. When a person smokes while sitting in the middle of the
raised bleachers adjacent to the playing fields, their second-hand smoke encompasses all
innocent bystanders, both children and adults. Any breeze which may be blowing only
aggravates the disbursement of the smoke.
The City of North Richland Hills operates a family water park that is an outdoor facility in
which smoking is prohibited. Can the same reasoning involved in prohibiting smoking at
NRHzO be applied to its youth sports facility? Or could at least a restriction be placed on
smoking in and around the playing fields, bleachers, and dug-outs? Signs could be posted on
the fences at each field indicating the no-smoking area similar to the signs Birdville
Independent School District has posted on the playing fields adjacent to its schools.
\Ve strongly urge you to consider this request so that all the residents of North Richland Hills
can truly be proud of their City in its efforts to ensure the safety and future of our children.

Subject: Holiday West Addition - Resolution No 97-48
Council Meeting Date: 10/27/97
Agenda Number: PU 97-90
The Çity was given Lot 25, Block 1-R, Holiday West Addition from Northeast Construction
Company (Hamm and Sandlin) on April 3, 1997. This is a vacant lot to be used for access from
Holiday Lane into a concrete drainage channel.
The residence adjacent to and north of this lot, 5601 Jamaica Circle (Lot 1, Block 19, Holiday
West Addition), is owned by Gary Jones. Mr. Jones has a small backyard. He had bought his
house thinking he would also acquire Lot 25 in back of his house to give him more yard area,
The City was given Lot 25 prior to Mr. Jones finalizing a contract on the lot. Public Works staff
has determined that part of the lot could be sold to Mr. Jones and still allow us the access we
need into the drainage channel from Holiday Lane.
The compensation to the City will be $375.00, which is the cost of surveying the portion of the lot
conveyed to Mr. Jones.
Recommendation:
"-..., It is recommended Council approve Resolution No. 97-48, authorizing the Mayor to execute a
Special Warranty Deed conveying 6,789.7 square feet of Lot 25, Block 1-R, Holiday West
Addition to Gary Jones for $375.00,

Award Bid for 199R Vp.hid~!=:
Agenda Number:
1 0/27/97
PU 97-96
Council Meeting Date:
In the 1997/98 approved budget, Council appropriated funds for the purchase of vehicles.
Formal bids were solicited for four 1998 pick-ups and one 1998 Lumina with one bid
received from Classic Chevrolet in the amount of $81,313. Staff contacted two vendors
who requested bid packages and one said they just missed the date and the other said they
did not have time to complete the pricing information. Both have indicated they would
respond if the vehicles are re-bid.
The prices submitted by Classic Chevrolet are State contract pricing. Staff feels it is in the
best interest of the City to accept the bid submitted by Classic Chevrolet. Classic Chevrolet
met all the specifications and general conditions of the bid and can deliver the vehicles in
75 days.
Council also appropriated funds for the purchase of a pickup to be used by the Parks
Department maintenance workers. Formal bids were solicited for this vehicle and one bid
was received from Hudiburg Chevrolet for a 1998 Crew Cab truck in the amount of $22,367.
Staff contacted two other vendors that requested bid information to find out why they did
not submit a bid. One vendor was off on medical leave and the other vendor did not want
to submit a bid for one truck.
'----
Hudiburg Chevrolet met all the general conditions and specifications of this bid and can
deliver the truck in 120 days. They agreed to hold the price of the truck so all 1998
vehicles could be awarded and ordered at the same time.
Staff always attempts to secure as many bids as possible, and when we only receive one,
we call to find out why others did not submit. As mentioned above, we did this in these
cases. It is frustrating when we only receive one bid, and it is Council's option to reject the
bids and authorize Staff to re-bid the vehicles. However, since these two companies have
bid, it appears unfair to them to reject the bids as they have already disclosed their prices.
Therefore, we suggest award the bids submitted.
Recommendation: It is recommended City Council award the bid for four trucks and one
Lumina to Classic Chevrolet in the amount of $81,313 and award the bid for a four-door
truck to Hudiburg Chevrolet in the amount of $22,367.

contract covers the layout, design and printing of the brochure. The amount for printing

Finance / Library Council Meeting Date: 10/27/97
Authorize Payment to Information Access Company Agenda Number: PAY 97-14
for CD-Rom Data Base Subscriptions
Subject:
In the 1997/98 approved budget, Council appropriated funds for miscellaneous electronic
database subscriptions. The Library's Plan of Service calls for it to provide access to
periodical indexes and full-text articles of interest to our customers.
The attached invoice from Information Access Company (lAC) is an annual renewal of the
library's subscriptions to two such tools on CD-ROM: (1) lAC's Health Reference Center
compilation of current articles, journals, and texts on medicine and health, and (2) lAC's
General Businessfile Select with Business ASAP, an enormously rich full-text source of
current business news and information. Both of these products are very popular with
library users, and are heavily used. The invoice total is $11,857.00, and it therefore
requires Council approval before payment.
Information Access Company is a sole-source provider for these products.
Recommendation: It is recommended that Council authorize payment to Information
Access Company in the amount of $11 ,857,00

CITY OF
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS
Department: Police Department
Subject: Relocation of Public Safety Radio Equipment
Council Meeting Date:
Agenda Number:
10-27-97
PAY 97-18
A part of the original Crime Control and Prevention District budget was a proposal to upgrade the
Police Communications capability.
All radio equipment for Fire, Police and EMS is currently housed in a room containing neither heating
nor air conditioning. As a result of outside venting this room cannot be kept as clean as desirable
for the operation of sensitive electronics. This room is also the interface point between internal and
external electrical power for the Police wing of City Hall. Radio frequencies in close proximity to
electrical power are known to cause the introduction of static in radio communications. This is
obviously not a desirable circumstance. Moving this equipment to the recently renovated space will
result in a more protected environment for all these sensitive pieces of equipment as well as reducing
interference.
DFW Communications is Motorola's sole authorized maintenance and service provider, This firm will
complete this work as part of the upgrade of the Motorola Consoles. DFWs bid for moving all
electronics from its current location to the newly prepared electronic room is $19,839.' This cost
includes new racks, coaxial cables as well as an estimated 100 hours of labor to remove and reinstall
all equipment in the protected environments.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the rnove of all emergency
radio equipment by DFW Communications for the amount of $19,839.00.
