State’s SEQRA changes get mixed reviews from business groups BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

Business advocates have given mixed grades to a series of proposed revisions to the state’s environmental regulations governing developments and municipal actions, applauding the state’s openness to changes but cautioning that the changes could mean new burdens. In separate letters to the Department of Environmental Conservation, which oversees the implementation of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA),

the Westchester County Association (WCA) and the Orange County Partnership (OCP) each responded with remarks and proposals to a draft scoping document released July 11 by DEC. It outlines how the agency plans to revise the law. “The department’s proposals are clearly offered in the spirit of improving the SEQRA process, which, as it currently exists, is openended and leads to uncertainty,” Orange County Partnership officials wrote in a letter to DEC Commissioner Joseph Martens. “However, we are concerned that the department’s proposals either do not go far enough,

or would be, in practice, counterproductive.” The partnership, which comprises Hudson Valley Pattern for Progress, the Orange County Chamber of Commerce and the Builders Association of the Hudson Valley, was also critical of the small window for public comment on the document. Maureen Halahan, OCP president and CEO, said DEC’s refusal to extend the public comment period, which ran through Aug. 10, was “short-sighted and flies in the face of the governor’s policies that promote transparency.”

uoyed by a state judge’s recent ruling that the strongly opposed Metropolitan Transportation Authority payroll tax on employers is unconstitutional, attorneys are pressing for a court judgment that would refund all money paid by employers in the region since the 3-year-old tax was enacted. MTA officials called the Aug. 22 ruling by state Supreme Court Justice R. Bruce Cozzens Jr. “erroneous” and warned that the loss of revenue resulting from the court decision in Nassau County would be “catastrophic” for the MTA and for the state economy. A spokesman said the MTA, which stands to lose more than $1.2 billion in annual revenue from the tax, will appeal the judge’s decision. The state Department of Taxation and Finance on its website advised that “this litigation is not concluded” and said employers should continue to pay and file payroll tax returns. Businesses in the affected counties pay 34 cents on every $100 of payroll. “This is not over yet,” said Michele Babcock, an attorney at Jacobowitz and Gubits L.L.P. in Walden. She and her firm represented three Orange County municipalities and the Orange County Chamber of Commerce in the legal challenge to the payroll tax. Babcock said the MTA is expected to file MTA tax, page 6

hat’s in a name? Plenty, for a Westchester hotel operator looking to fill rooms in a technological age of webinars and declining business travel, when one’s travel agent has been replaced by one’s Google search. Try doing an online search for “Rye town,” said Alon Ben-Gurion, the general manager who has overseen a $35 million, three-phase, multiyear renovation project – under three successive owners – at his company’s recently renamed hotel in Rye Brook. “I don’t think you’re going to find very much,” he said in the 445-room hotel’s renovated lobby. “The more we spoke to the clients, they said, ‘We can’t find it,’” said Ben-Gurion, who came to the Hilton Rye Town in 2004 from The Waldorf-Astoria in Manhattan. “You want to have the highest exposure” with a regional identity. “We needed something more general.” So it was that after 39 years as first the Rye Town Hilton Inn and, more recently, the Hilton Rye Town, the hotel on a wooded 37-acre campus off Westchester Avenue this

summer was renamed the Hilton Westchester. The new name comes with a sweeping new look for the hotel, part of a larger undertaking of more than $3 billion in major capital projects by individual hotels in the global portfolio of Hilton Hotels & Resorts, the flagship brand of Hilton Worldwide. Walls have been torn down to create an expansive open space that runs the full length of the main hotel building and connects lobby, tech lounge and the hotel’s new restaurant that will open this month. Ben-Gurion had the hotel pool closed off from the lobby, where kids and other guests in dripping swim suits and wet feet formerly crossed paths with arriving business guests, and added a library that adjoins the enclosed pool. The hotel operator decided to “change the entire concept of the hotel,” Ben-Gurion said. “The beauty is to try to bring the outside into the inside. That is the major concept here. People want to see the green, they want to see the outside.” That effect “was brought about by as much by selective demolition as it was by the new design,” architect Michael Maurer said in a press release.

of the Hilton Westchester project for Gettys, the hospitality design and interior architecture firm that directed the renovation of the hotel’s public spaces. A major renovation of the hotel’s guest rooms and 34 meeting rooms was completed in 2010. At the rear of the open public space, the hotel’s new restaurant and lounge, härth, is scheduled to open Sept. 13. The restaurant features a centrally located wood-burning brick oven. Executive Chef Rafael Velazquez, who came to the Hilton Westchester in 2011 from the St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort in his native Puerto Rico, is creating a wide-ranging menu that uses seasonal ingredients and the products of farms in the lower Hudson Valley – among them, meats from Hemlock Hill Farm in Cortlandt Manor – and features simply prepared fare that does not conceal the natural taste of ingredients. “It’s to do as less as we can” when cooking and preparing in order to bring out the flavors of those locally sourced foods, he said. The hotel, which employs about 220 permanent workers, was not spared the impact of the recession four years ago, when business began to plummet at hotels through-

out the county. “It all was good in ’08 until September or October, and then it all started to cave down,” Ben-Gurion said. The Hilton had already scheduled the second phase of renovations to begin that fall. The drop-off in business that came with the recession made the project easier to carry out. “Without knowing it, it worked a little bit in our favor,” Ben-Gurion said. But the cancellations of state-sponsored and business group events and restrictions on travel hurt a hotel whose core business is “the group business,” Ben-Gurion said. The final phase of the $35 million renovation project was completed under the hotel ownership of an investment group led by Lodging Capital Partners L.L.C., a Chicago-based company formed in 2005 that owns and manages a $1.5 billion portfolio of upper-upscale and luxury hotels in the U.S. The company paid $35.5 million in 2011 to acquire the Hilton in Rye Brook from Ashford Hospitality Trust Inc., a real estate investment trust. “History does judge us,” said BenGurion, leading a tour of the renovated areas. “History will decide whether we did it right – or I will hear all about it.”

IDA backs Yonkers developer BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

planned $22 million redevelopment of five downtown Yonkers properties stands to receive tax breaks backed by the Yonkers Industrial Development Agency. The city IDA recently gave initial approval to plans by developer Nicholas Sprayregen and Rising DevelopmentYonkers L.L.C. to convert vacant buildings on Main and Mill streets into live-work lofts and retail and restaurant space. The two-year project is expected to result in 134 permanent jobs when completed. Sprayregen is managing member of Rising Development, which since 2006 has spent about $30 million to acquire an assemblage of commercial and residential properties in downtown Yonkers for redevelopment. He envisions creating a music and arts destination on Mill Street and a working community of artists and entrepreneurs occupying former warehouse space. The Rising Development project would create 7,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space at 27 Main St.; 25,000 square feet of live-work lofts and 6,000 square feet of retail space at 713 Main St. and adjacent 2 Mill St., and 15 live-work lofts and 4,000 square feet of café and retail space at 36 and 38 Main St. The developer also plans to demolish a vacant building at 24 Warburton Ave. to create a pedestrian passage linking the city’s new Larkin Plaza Park with the Mill Street courtyard. “This project links the waterfront, Larkin Plaza and Main Street in a pedestrian-friendly way with living, retail and restaurant space,” Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano, who also chairs the city IDA, said in a statement. “Nick Sprayregen has a great plan to tie together these essential elements of downtown Yonkers.” The developer has budgeted approximately $11 million for construction and $3.8 million for furnishings, space fitout and equipment. Property acquisition costs were about $7.6 million. The Yonkers IDA will provide about $451,000 in sales and use tax exemptions and $79,000 in mortgage tax exemptions. The agency also will negotiate a property tax abatement.

Employees seek additional voluntary benefits, study finds BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

new MetLife study found that while most employers are not cutting back on employee benefits, they are largely not increasing the available benefits even as employees say they would be willing to pay more for those benefits. In Westchester, though, business advocates and representatives of employee-benefits services say there has been a “tremendous increase” in the number of firms looking into and implementing voluntary benefits for

their employees. The increased interest in voluntary programs comes as Westchester employers – and small business owners in particular – are moving toward less expensive medical options, said Norman Michaels Jr., president of Michaels & Associates, an employee-benefit consulting and brokerage firm with offices in Armonk and Wappingers Falls. “Underlying everything is that medical costs – not medical insurance, but medical costs – are not going down,” Michaels said. “Health care reform has caused the insurance industry in New York to be spending more

Everyone knows the personal health benefits of going smoke-free. But did you know that it can also improve your business’ health? Many New York landlords have already gone smoke-free in order to: • Lower maintenance costs and improve value retention • Make units easier to rent or sell • Reduce fire risk and insurance premiums • Set policy that is legal and nondiscriminatory • Significantly lessen tenant conflicts due to secondhand smoke • Follow HUD guidelines and help earn LEED certification • Reduce potential legal liability from secondhand smoke

money than they would have had they not had the Affordable Care Act to deal with.” While the primary benefit offered by employers continues to be health insurance, Michaels said his firm sells a “tremendous” amount of life and disability insurance policies. “Voluntary benefits are a very big part of that,” he said. “We’ve seen a tremendous increase in companies offering voluntary benefits.” Seventy percent of employers surveyed by MetLife said they intend to maintain their current level of employee benefits, with 30 percent saying they would maintain the available benefits by shifting some of the costs to their employees. The study’s findings show a strong correlation between overall job satisfaction and the available benefits – even if those benefits are not subsidized by an employer. Representatives of more than 1,500 employers and more than 1,400 full-time employees were surveyed last fall as part of MetLife’s 10th annual Study of Employee Benefits Trends, which was conducted by GfK Custom Research North America, with the findings released in August. Of the interviews, 944 were conducted with representatives of companies with fewer than 500 employees, and 685 were conducted with employees working for companies with fewer than 500 employees. Among Generation X and Generation Y employees, 72 percent who were “very satisfied” with their benefits said they were more likely to feel a very strong sense of loyalty to their employer, compared with just 46 percent of Gen X and Gen Y employees overall who said they were likely to feel a strong sense of loyalty. Notably, one in three employees surveyed said they hoped to be working for a different employer this year.

Two-thirds of the Gen X and Gen Y small business employees who were surveyed said they would be willing to pay more of the cost of benefits rather than lose them, while 54 percent of all Gen X and Gen Y workers said they would be interested in having a wider selection of benefits options even if it would mean paying all of the cost for those benefits. The voluntary benefits sought range from life and dental insurance policies to disability,

Larger businesses have seemingly adjusted in response to the growing desire among employees to have the option of purchasing voluntary benefits packages through the workplace. The percentage of companies with more than 500 employees identifying voluntary benefits as a key element in their overall benefits strategy increased to 57 percent in the current study compared to 43 percent a year ago. Among businesses with fewer than 500 employees, 31 percent identified voluntary benefits as a critical element to their overall strategy, up from 26 percent last year.

United Way at 50

Looking back, looking ahead BY MARY SHUSTACK mshustack@westfairinc.com

he United Way of Westchester and Putnam is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Ask its president and CEO what makes her proud about the White Plains-based organization, and Naomi Adler has a ready, if broad, answer. “Well, there’s a lot,” she said during a conversation this past week. “It’s been an amazing 50 years.”

to try and solve problems that reach beyond the scope of any single organization. Its focus areas are education, income and health. “We’re the go-to people for information on the community,” Adler said. A major point of pride, Adler added, is United Way’s Hudson Valley Region 2-1-1, a helpline that fields up to 500 calls and 1,000 online queries each day. The United Way is also a major force on the volunteer front, as the Volunteer Center of United Way connects 18,000 people with volunteer opportunities each year.

Through the years

Naomi Adler became United Way of Westchester and Putnam’s president and CEO in 2008.

And as the agency approaches the official celebration of its milestone, Adler (who assumed her post in 2008) pauses to look back at how United Way has helped the community – all of the community. “We don’t just help kids. We don’t just help the elderly. We help everyone,” she said, before adding, “I would always say help because United Way never does it alone.” And that, to many, is a reason to support the United Way. It’s a far-reaching organization that has a hand in most every aspect of community life. United Way works with agency partners, government, businesses and community leaders

The United Way traces its local roots back to Westchester’s first Community Chest formed in 1919 in Tarrytown. In 1962, the Westchester County United Fund, the first regional United Way in America, was incorporated. A Putnam County office opened in 1978 with the agency’s name amended in 1985 to reflect both counties. United Way’s strong bond with the business community dates back to its start, with IBM first mentioned in 1964 board minutes. “We’re very proud of our partnerships with our business leaders,” Adler said. Over the years, the work of United Way has progressed, adjusting to the growing needs of the times. The ’90s saw the agency face a major scandal when its national president, William Aramony, left amid questions about misuse of funds. But Adler said the organization came back from the scandal stronger than ever with a renewed dedication to accountability. “We have an amazing amount of regulations associated with where the money is going,” Adler said. Donors, those who support United Way

through payroll deductions or individually and those corporate sponsors, continue to be attracted to the devotion to the local community. “Everything that’s raised here stays here,” Adler said.

Business partners Many corporations are involved with United Way in a variety of ways. They loan employees to share their expertise. They donate goods. They conduct fund-raising efforts. In 2010, Swiss Re American Holding Corp, with its headquarters for the Americas in Armonk, encouraged all its American offices to run United Way campaigns to help their local communities. “We were really trying to establish a local footprint in terms of our local philanthropy,” said Karen Ferris, senior vice president of human resources for Swiss Re. And the way United Way operates was key. “They do what’s appropriate for each locale,” Ferris said. “Ultimately, that was the appeal.” Accountability, she added, was another attraction. “They do a really good job of having metrics and delivering on their commitments,” Ferris said. “There are actual things that are measured and completed.” Gregory Bassuk, the CEO of IndexIQ, a financial-services firm based in Rye Brook, will become the board chairman of United Way of Westchester and Putnam this November. He came to know about the nonprofit organization attending its many workshops that touched on the financial field – and liked what he saw. “They focus on building community alliances,” he said, noting the initiatives bring together expertise from all facets of the community. Bassuk adds that it’s a plus that the

United Way is able to help as a “resource to other nonprofits to help them do what they do best.”

Looking ahead Adler says the United Way will continue to expand and fine-tune its reach. The organization will soon launch the latest edition of its “Community Conversations.” Thousands of residents will be surveyed about pressing issues in the two counties. “We don’t just want their dollars. We

want their opinion,” Adler said. The survey, Adler said, “results in major initiatives that we take on.” And that will set the agenda for the next 50 years. The United Way of Westchester and Putnam anniversary events will include the annual meeting, awards presentation and “Top Chefs Celebration” Oct. 3 at the Westchester Country Club in Rye; the “United Way’s 50th Anniversary Celebration Concert” with classical pianist Ang Li Oct. 17 at the Music Conservatory of Westchester in White Plains; and an online fundraising auction.

its appeal with the state Appellate Division in Brooklyn after Cozzens issues a judgment in the case. As for the full refund sought by plaintiffs’ attorneys, “The justice may not agree to that,” she said. Filed in 2010, the legal challenge to the tax on employers in the MTA’s 12-county commuter transportation district also was joined by Long Island’s Nassau and Suffolk counties, Westchester County, Putnam County and more than a dozen towns and villages in the region. At a press conference following the court ruling, Westchester County Executive Robert P. Astorino reportedly said county government has paid nearly $5 million in payroll tax since state legislators enacted the tax in 2009, when the MTA turned to Albany for help in closing a $1.8 billion budget deficit.

SEQRA— From page 1

Emily DeSantis, DEC director of public information, said the department is reviewing all comments and preparing the draft regulatory language and supporting documentation for the formal proposal, which she said DEC hopes to release this fall. DeSantis confirmed DEC has delayed implementing new environmental assessment forms (EAF) from Oct. 1 to April 1, 2013, to allow developers and municipal officials more time to study the changes. Developers and municipal officials have long sought changes to the SEQRA process, citing inefficiencies and broad

Though municipalities under state law generally cannot challenge the constitutionality of state legislation, there are exceptions, Cozzens noted in his decision. He found that the MTA tax legislation was a special law affecting some but not all counties in the state and therefore required a home-rule message from affected local governments requesting the state Legislature to enact the law. The tax was unconstitutionally passed by state lawmakers without the required home- rule message, he ruled. Cozzens rejected MTA attorneys’ argument that the special law serves “a substantial state concern” and so did not require a home-rule message from local municipalities. While counties in the MTA commuter district would be affected by a decrease in MTA capability, “it is hard to see how the residents in Buffalo or other upstate areas would similarly be affected,” the judge wrote. If the MTA budgetary crisis were a substan-

tial state concern, then the Legislature could have taxed all counties under a general law to close the deficit, he said.

MTA officials said they expect the judge’s ruling to be overturned, since four previous Supreme Court challenges to the tax and its constitutionality were dismissed. Those cases, including one brought by Rockland County, were heard in state Supreme Court in Albany County. In the

case on Long Island, MTA attorneys unsuccessfully sought a change of venue to Albany County or, as a second choice, Manhattan. When Cozzens refused to grant the change, the MTA appealed the decision to the Appellate Division, where the lower court’s ruling was upheld. Keeping the case in Nassau County was crucial to the outcome, Babcock said. “It’s not over yet,” she said, “but we’re hopeful that at the end of the day, this will be a real victory for everyone” in the MTA commuter district. Babcock said she is confident that the judge’s ruling will be upheld on appeal. MTA officials warned that without the payroll tax or another reliable funding source, the MTA “would be forced to implement a combination of extreme service cuts and fare hikes.” They said the judge’s ruling on Long Island also could affect “hundreds of millions of dollars more from other taxes.”

guidelines that can result in lengthy delays and high costs associated with the environmental review of a proposed development.

tance of protecting the environment as well as the economy. “There needs to be a simpler way to do this and yet preserve the environment. It’s not ‘economic development at all costs.’” Despite widespread calls for change, comprehensive revisions to SEQRA have been rare since the law was first adopted in 1975. In a letter to Orange County Chamber of Commerce members, chamber president John D’Ambrosio said this represents just the third opportunity since SEQRA was passed for the public to offer suggestions for improvements. DEC in its draft scoping document proposes to require public scoping of all environmental impact statements (EIS); change the definition a Type I action, or a project likely requiring an EIS, and a

Type II action, which would not require an EIS; provide more guidance on the proper means for a lead agency to determine the adequacy of a draft EIS, and establish a more meaningful timetable for the completion of a final EIS, among other items. Both the WCA and OCP advocated that DEC strive to include changes to SEQRA that would reduce the amount of time consumed by scoping proceedings and by the EIS review process. Both organizations supported more definitive and enforceable time frames for the public and for the lead agency to complete each step in the process. The groups also cautioned against changes to the definitions of Type I actions that could require more development sponsors to produce an EIS.

Peekskill aims to redevelop industrial area

Worklife has been a caterpillar long enough.

anted: commercial and retail developers in the city of Peekskill. Peekskill officials have issued a request for qualifications, or RFQ, from developers interested in redeveloping nearly 13 acres of city-owned land on Lower South Street near the city’s industrial waterfront corridor. “This is a priority project for the city,” Peekskill Mayor Mary F. Foster said in a press release. She said the development would replace a former recycling facility and junkyard with “a destination center for businesses and stores” that generates jobs and tax revenue. The land, which includes eight parcels zoned for industrial use, adjoins the recently improved state Route 9, from which it is accessible by the Louisa Street and Welcher Avenue exits. The city is asking developers to be innovative in their approach to complement

the city’s downtown, waterfront and other business sectors. James Slaughter, Peekskill economic development director, said officials want the Lower South Street area to be “part of an organic connection” to the city’s various business districts. Slaughter said the city wants to attract high-quality national and regional retailers as well as commercial businesses. Regarding retail uses, “We really want to see what prospective developers want to talk about and what they think can make it there.” Slaughter said the city could issue a request for proposals from developers, the next step in the redevelopment process, in the latter half of October and begin interviewing developers by November or December. Responses from developers are due at City Hall by 11 a.m. Sept. 14. The full RFQ is posted on the city’s website, cityofpeekskill.com. Developers and investors seeking more information can contact Slaughter at (914) 293-0916 or by email at JSlaughter@cityofpeekskill.com.

Spread too thin? Right now we’re short staffed to save money. As a result, I’m spending a lot of time coordinating jobs. I can’t focus on sales and worry that we won’t have enough work later in the year. I’m trying to do too much and my stress level is way up. Help!

Thoughts of the day: A common problem in SMBs, or small to mediumsize businesses, is getting spread too thin. Owners are resourceful and willing to pitch in wherever they’re needed. That’s good in the beginning when things are getting off the ground. Long term, however, it’s bad, getting in the way of finding and filling the holes. SMBs start out needing people who can multitask. Each job is not big enough to require full-time staff. The owner is usually the one to first learn the multitasking skill. The downside is that an owner who is tied up in details and running around chasing problems doesn’t have time to measure, manage and plan. One month the owner focuses on sales. The next month sales are up, the owner jumps into operations and sales loses momentum. It becomes almost impossible to establish a steady constant flow in either area. Cashflow problems crop up. The stress and strain of constantly changing focus and playing defense start to wear on the multitasking owner. Every business owner needs to learn how to step back and focus on the longterm growth and development of the business. As the business grows and jobs become more demanding and take more time to do, a new set of skills is required. The game shifts from multitasking to specialization. Owners, people in the field and people in the office all have to focus on what they’re good at and train replacements for the things they give up. Think about how to reorganize so people can report on what they’re doing and you can run the business. Certain areas of the business will benefit from specialization sooner rather than later. Sales is one of those disciplines that will benefit from having dedicated staff and a working plan. The owner has to decide if sales is an area he or she plans

by andi gray

to specialize in or hire someone who will. That decision has to be based on a realistic assessment of the owner’s skills in sales. Many owners are really good at sales and should keep on selling. Others end up in sales because no one else is willing to do the job or because no one else can speak to prospects as passionately about the business. That’s not necessarily the right reason for putting the owner front and center in sales. Prioritize growing sales in order to make more money. Hire people who are skilled at identifying leads and closing on opportunities; people who can work with the owner, learn about the business and apply their selling skills to growing the company. As sales rise, build up staff in operations and administration. Put someone charge. If you can’t afford a full-time operations manager, consider hiring someone who can be a working supervisor. Whoever ends up doing sales, operations and every other part of the business, make sure that there are weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual goals, reports and meetings. Measure results in both quantity and dollar value. Be sure that the company has enough selling activity to keep sales growing in the future. In operations, set standards for lead times, customer satisfaction and inventory levels. Teach people to assess performance against standards. Free up the owner to put more time into planning, evaluating and charting a growth path for the business. Pull back from daily responsibilities. Read reports, gather data on the company’s overall performance and make decisions on where to go next. Looking for a good book?

M&T expands in Hudson Valley with $3.7B deal

BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

&T Bank Corp. has agreed to acquire Hudson City Bancorp Inc. and its 135 branches, including a dozen in the Hudson Valley, as part of a $3.7 billion deal that becomes the largest U.S. bank acquisition of 2012 by total value. The deal, which also marks Buffalo, N.Y.based M&T’s entry into Connecticut with nine Fairfield County branches, represents the second billion-dollar merger involving a Buffalo-based bank expanding within the Hudson Valley to be announced since July 2011.

“This merger creates tremendous opportunities to build on the successes that each company has achieved individually in its own markets,” Hermance said in the joint statement.

First Niagara Financial Group recently completed its $1 billion takeover of more than 100 HSBC Bank USA branches across New York state and Connecticut. With more than 700 branches in New York, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Washington, D.C., Virginia, West Virginia, New Jersey, Florida, Delaware and Toronto, M&T Bank specializes in commercial lending and commercial real estate. Hudson City Savings Bank, the banking subsidiary of Hudson City Bancorp, works primarily in residential mortgages. Despite the differing business strategies, the heads of both companies said in an Aug. 27 joint statement and subsequent conference call that the banks’ respective strengths will complement one another, adding that the expanded M&T network will help to attract new retail and commercial clients. “To the customers and communities now served by Hudson City, M&T brings a wider array of banking products and services,” Robert G. Wilmers, M&T chairman and CEO, said in the statement. Wilmers said the merger will create “a comprehensive community banking franchise” that provides services ranging from checking and savings accounts and wealth management to home equity loans and commercial banking. As part of the agreement, Hudson City

Bancorp and Hudson City Savings Bank will City share, equating to about $7.22 per share based on M&T’s Aug. 24 closing price and merge into a subsidiary of M&T. M&T said it expects to gain about $25 representing a premium of about 12 percent billion in deposits and $28 billion in loans to Hudson City’s closing price of $6.44. After the merger is completed, M&T says from the merger. M&T has $80.8 billion in assets, while Hudson City, based in Paramus, it expects to repay approximately $13 billion of Hudson City’s long-term borrowings N.J., has $43.6 billion in assets. Among the 135 branches being acquired by liquidating its similarly sized investment are 97 in New Jersey, 29 in downstate New portfolio. Following that action, M&T’s pro forma York and nine in Connecticut. Included are branches in Baldwin Place, Harrison, balanced sheet will have increased by roughly Larchmont, Mamaroneck, Mohegan Lake, $28 billion. Wilmers and M&T CFO Rene Jones said New Rochelle, Peekskill, Rye Brook, White during the Aug. 27 conference call that the Plains and Yorktown Heights. M&T, which currently has a commercial acquisition will “immediately” improve the banking center in Tarrytown and branch- combined companies’ capital ratios, capital es in White Plains, Elmsford, Mount Kisco generation, tangible book value per share and and Ossining, will also acquire Hudson City operating earnings per share. branches in New City and Carmel.

He will be appointed to the M&T Bank Corp. and M&T Bank boards of directors following the completion of the transaction. “This merger creates tremendous opportunities to build on the successes that each company has achieved individually in its own markets,” Hermance said in the joint statement. For the second quarter ended June 30, M&T Bank reported earnings fell 28 percent to $233 million compared with earnings of $322 million for the second quarter 2011. As of June 30, total assets were up 4 percent to $80.8 billion compared with total assets of $77.7 billion as of June 30, 2011, while total deposits rose 6 percent to $62.5 billion on June 30 from $59.2 billion on June 30, 2011.

SEPTEMBER SPOTLIGHT

OPEN DOOR FAMILY MEDICAL CENTER For more than 40 years Open Door Family Medical Centers has grown by leaps and bounds to provide health care to people in Westchester County who experience significant barriers to access. Our mission has remained constant since our humble beginnings in the basement of Ossining’s First Baptist Church in 1972: to provide quality primary health care and human services at affordable prices to the community, particularly low-income, under-served residents and those lacking access to health care. We started as a volunteer-run organization and today we are among the largest and most capable health care providers in Westchester County with nine sites, including five school-based health centers and more than 40,000 patients making over 200,000 visits annually. We believe that health care is a right for all people, not a privilege. We celebrate diversity and respect cultural and linguistic differences. We believe

12 September 3, 2012 • WCBJ

that healthy individuals and families are the foundation of a civil society and that those empowered to lead healthy lives contribute significantly to the community’s success. Open Door started through the vision and hard work of a group of volunteers, some of whom were medical professionals who recognized that many people in their own community did not have access to or the ability to adequately pay for quality health care. They found a way to make health care not only accessible but affordable. Today volunteers remain integral partners in helping us maintain our vision and uphold our commitment to meet our mission. In 2011, 358 volunteers provided 3,642 hours of support. Diverse in age and interest our volunteers all share a vital generosity of spirit. From collecting and wrapping holiday presents for our children who may not receive any other holiday gifts, to volunteers who teach parents how to share the gift of reading with their children by reading to them in our waiting room, we offer a wide range of volunteer opportunities for individuals. We invite you to come in for a visit and to join us in our mission to keep our communities throughout Westchester County strong and healthy. To schedule a tour or to speak to someone about volunteer opportunities contact Alicia Ward at (914) 502-1468 or award@odfmc.org.

WHY GIVE? “When I realized that every day an average of 800 patients walk through the doors at Open Door to receive high-quality health care in a comfortable and nurturing setting, I knew that I wanted to help and hold the door open wider. Imagine how many families who might otherwise not have access to affordable and much-needed care count on us to help. It feels good to give back to the community I live in.” Marlene Canapi Foundation Board Member

Message from Jim Steets As the not-for-profit busy season takes a hold of your employees’ time and attention, so does the level of stress that your hard-working team has to handle. When the work increases, so should management’s recognition efforts. The easiest and most impactful form of recognition is a few wellplaced and specific words of praise. When you see something worth complimenting, make sure that you tell your employee specifically what he or she did and why it was important. A compliment that lays out details encourages the employee to perform in a similar manner in the future. Formal recognition programs are great but a few “surprise” treats for outstanding efforts may go a long way. Consider bringing in donuts and coffee for the team, taking an afternoon popcorn break or recognizing individual performance with a gift card to the movies or a favorite restaurant. You don’t need to spend a lot. It’s the thought and what you say that really count. Say “thank you” from the heart and you might just find your employees whistling while they work. — Jim Steets, Vice President, Communications, Entergy

SPECIAL health care REPORT practices

Grown in New Rochelle Somnia a national success

BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

arc E. Koch was a medical resident with business acumen at Yale University School of Medicine when in 1995 he began to “look at the next paradigm” in health care, he said recently at his office at Somnia Inc. in New Rochelle. Hospitals had begun to decentralize their services and the market for ambulatory surgery – procedures that avoided the cost of hospital stays for patients – was about 10 years old. Koch, an anesthesiologist, realized that third-party health care payers would offer incentives for more cost-efficient practices. To him it seemed that performing some surgeries in surgical centers and hospital venues “was wasteful. It wasted crucial government dollars.” Those services of surgeons and anesthesiologists could be brought into doctors’ offices at lower costs. “So our company was born,” said Koch, who is president and CEO and a co-owner of Somnia Anesthesia. The company has about 100 employees at its headquarters at 10 Commerce Drive in downtown New Rochelle. In the residency program at Yale, Koch found a like-minded medical and business partner in Robert C. Goldstein, Somnia’s chief medical officer and executive vice president. They formed their anesthesia practice management company in 1996. “We wrote a business plan while on call at the hospital in our down time,” Koch said. “We got $5,000 from Rob’s parents and $5,000 from my grandparents and here we went.” In the early years, Koch in his scrubs went by bus to doctors’ offices in New York City. “I spent most of my time providing peripatetic anesthesia,” he said. Plastic surgeons and podiatrists were mainstay clients at the start. There were formidable obstacles to clear before their novel practice took off. “Nobody would give us malpractice” liability insurance, Koch recalled. “No insurance companies would give us health insurance for our fledgling company. No billing company would take us on.” Payers refused to meet with them. The partners developed a manual to show companies what they were doing in their office-based, costsaving practice. “One by one, we knocked down all the encumbrances and created marketplace infrastructure,” Koch said. In 1997, Somnia was the first anesthesiology practice to be accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Healthcare. When Medicare officials in the late ’90s began to offer a site-of-service payment differential for office surgeries, the anesthesiologists’ business “took off,” Koch said. By 2000, though, he worried that the changing market could turn against their growing business. Payers might decide that office surgeries did not require anesthesia and surgeons might add in-house anesthesia services. Lack of oversight in the office venue could give the industry a black eye, he worried. “Back then, quality management was not what it is today,”

Robert C. Goldstein, left, and Marc E. Koch, founding owners of Somnia Inc., outside their New Rochelle headquarters.

said Koch. “We had to think strategically about quality.” In the tristate region, “Surgery centers and hospitals began to take notice of what we were doing in the office-space surgeries and began to call us.” The partners developed “version 2.0” of their business plan, focusing on surgery centers as their new target clients. “The surgery center model worked very, very well. We got many surgery centers,” Koch said. Somnia’s founders decided to launch nationally. From 2000 to 2001, the New Rochelle company began its national rollout, offering a “one-stop solution” that provided both clinical and administrative anesthesiology services and recruited physicians locally. Somnia soon gained surgery centers in Pennsylvania, Kentucky and New York as clients. “We were very successful at that,” said Koch, who obtained an M.B.A. in finance and marketing from the Fordham University School of Business during the company’s national launch. “We’re not vampires,” he said. “We don’t go in and try to take contracts” from other providers. “We come in because there’s oftentimes been issues with anesthesia” at a client facility. “Our method is really to work with hospitals and anesthesia providers that need that formality and infrastructure” offered by Somnia “and take what is good and make it better” both in quality of care and cost efficiency.

Doing all of its professional recruiting internally, Somnia has built a network that includes 310 anesthesiologists and registered nurse anesthetists in about 15 states. The company’s largest client base, including several hospitals, is on the West Coast, following by the East Coast and the Midwest. “Since our national rollout, we’ve typically gone to one or two new ones a year,” said Koch. “That’s comfortable for us.” Founders Koch and Goldstein remain the fast-growing company’s sole owners. “We don’t have an investment banker looking over our shoulder,” said Koch. “We can take risks.” “In the (health care) marketplace, there’s been a huge influx of private equity,” he said. “We’re beholden to the patients and anesthesiology (clients) and hospitals that we serve and not to a boardroom with guys in ties,” Koch said. Their business plan in its evolving versions has proven profitable. In July, Modern Healthcare magazine named Somnia Anesthesia to its Healthcare’s Hottest list as one of the 40 fastest-growing U.S. companies with at least $20 million in revenue in 2011. In June, Crain’s New York Business ranked Somnia 26th on its Fast 50 list of the fastest-growing companies in the metropolitan area. Somnia had a three-year growth rate of 82 percent and $74.2 million in revenue in 2011. “We’ve seen remarkable growth,” said Koch. “To be succinct, people trust us.” WCBJ • September 3, 2012

Medical e-records provider launches in Westchester BY PATRICK GALLAGHER pgallagher@westfairinc.com

he idea for Medical Records On Call, also known as MROC, sprouted, like many small businesses before it, out of a simple problem that could have been prevented but for which there was no immediate solution. And so Robert Flamm, a longtime Westchester resident currently living in Stamford, Conn., made it his business to create one. During the course of being treated for a medical issue that required him to see multiple doctors belonging to different practices, Flamm had a reaction to one drug as a result of an interaction with another drug he had been taking at the time.

The reaction could have been prevented, Flamm said, if all of his doctors had been fully aware of each of the treatments he was being prescribed. In subsequent research, however, Flamm said he could not find a single service available to consumers that would allow multiple physicians spread across different practices to view an individual’s medical records and history regardless of the internal hardware or software systems being used by their respective practices. “The drug interaction problem that I had, had I let it go and just assumed it might be a symptom, could have really been a permanently disabling problem,” Flamm said. “So that’s why what we wanted to do at the same time as creating a system that worked was creating one that the patients were involved with, that they would be able to organize.”

FROZEN WOMAN

After a car accident left her with pain in her neck and back, her quality of life suffered. She had fusion surgery in her lower back, and her back pain was relieved – but her mobility was frozen. A couple of years later, when her neck pain became unbearable, she learned she would need surgery again. But she didn’t want to give up even more mobility. So she went to Phelps Memorial Hospital Center. The cause of her neck pain was correctly diagnosed and she had artificial disc replacement surgery – the most advanced procedure available for relieving painful disc conditions while preserving mobility.

Flamm and business partner Kevin Kessler began developing MROC earlier this year as a cloud-based service for individuals to upload and store their medical records electronically, with physicians able to view those records, but not change or update them, on any device or platform provided they have the proper access code. The benefit is twofold, Flamm says: First, it ensures that doctors are aware of all of the medical records their patients want them to be aware of; and second, it enables patients to have a better understanding of their own medical records. “Regardless of the system that a particular doctor’s office uses, they (the electronic files) are all uploadable,” Flamm said. “So if you were to go to doctor A, B and C and they all were on three different systems, we have

the only service that would actually allow all three doctors to see all of the records because we’re not dependent” on a particular piece of hardware or software. MROC launched three months ago, and is based in Westchester, though Flamm said he cannot disclose the location due to security reasons. The company is being marketed nationwide. The company initially has marketed its service to businesses for use by their employees and to insurance companies, which could then include a subscription to MROC as part of an individual’s insurance policy. Flamm compared MROC with a sort of wellness program, adding that businesses and insurance companies alike have an interest in keeping their employees and clients healthy. While the service is still relatively new, Flamm projected MROC would have “in the multiple hundreds of thousands of members” by the end of the year. “We know what we’re on to,” he said. The company’s strategy has been to market MROC to consumers rather than to physicians and health care providers. He said MROC has kept physicians “at arm’s length initially,” but said doctors have increasingly been expressing interest in the service when exposed to it through their patients. “All of a sudden doctors who are skeptical are looking at it and within weeks they’re turning around and asking other patients about it and suggesting they get it,” Flamm said. Flamm said not allowing anyone to change, input or update a customer’s records aside from the customer himself was a key component of MROC’s development. Unlike other companies that input clients’ records on their behalf, “We don’t transpose, we don’t translate, we don’t interpret,” Flamm said. That measure of security, he said, prevents doctors from changing a file after it had already been uploaded by a patient. MROC customers have the option of only uploading the files they want their doctors to see, but Flamm said the company recommends to its customers that they upload all of their files, adding that the system won’t allow a customer to upload any single file unless it is completely uploaded. MROC is currently building its sales staff as it hopes to begin marketing the service to individual consumers beginning in 2013. Flamm said the company’s marketing efforts to date have focused exclusively on companies and insurance providers because the newly formed entity did not have the advertising budget to allow it to target individual consumers.

What the ACA means for seniors and disabled

By Bernard A. Krooks

n light of the recent Supreme Court decision, the merits of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) are subject to much debate. While experts continue to analyze its thousands of pages, the ACA clearly has the potential to benefit both seniors and individuals with disabilities. As of 2014, private insurers may not deny coverage or charge premium rates based on pre-existing conditions (they’re already forbidden to do so for anyone under 19). Limits on lifetime coverage will be eliminated. This opens opportunities to middle-class families whose incomes render them ineligible for Medicaid coverage of loved ones with disabilities. It also benefits seniors who are supplementing Medicare with private coverage through their retirement plans. In addition, private insurers must offer a menu of “essential benefits,” including mental health services, speech, occupational and physical therapy and ABA, a popular treatment for autism. But families should watch for the fine print. Insurers will likely question the medical necessity of specific services and will place limits on the number of covered sessions. ACA gives states the option of expanding Medicaid coverage to persons earning up to 133 percent of the federal poverty level ($14,856 for an individual). This is particularly important to families with special needs because Medicaid pays for many critically important services, including communitybased housing. The federal government will pay 100 percent of the increased cost for three years, gradually lowering its participation to 90 percent by 2020. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has announced plans to implement the expansion, but other state governments are wavering. In states that decline to participate, adults earning too much for Medicaid but too little to qualify for tax subsidies will remain uninsured.

Community-based services More than 70 percent of all nursing home residents depend on Medicaid. Now, ACA’s Money Follows the Person and the Community First Option will allow them to be cared for in other settings without jeopardizing that funding. Because Medicaid is a means-tested program, there have long been protections for certain assets held by the “well” spouse when an individual entered a care facility. Now those protections will be extended to community-based situations. While New York has an excellent record of exploring alternatives to institutional care, these new programs will make an even wider range of choices available to seniors and individuals with disabilities.

Improvements to Medicare

There are also important implications for Medicare. Perhaps most apparent is the closing of the infamous prescription drug “donut hole,” which affects 25 percent of all beneficiaries. This refers to the fact that Medicare Part D provides coverage up to a specific dollar limit, after which individuals must pay all drug costs until they reach a “catastrophic” threshold. ACA requires pharmaceutical companies to reduce both brand name and generic drug prices for Medicare enrollees caught in the “donut hole.” Brand name prescription prices are currently reduced by 50 percent, with discounts gradually increasing to 75 percent in 2020. Protections are also increased for individuals opting for Medicare Advantage plans, which now must hold co-pays for chemotherapy and dialysis to levels at or below

those required by Medicare A and B.

Better care and safety A number of ACA-funded studies will seek to improve care and lower costs. The Independence at Home Demonstration is a three-year trial that offers home-based primary care to chronically ill individuals. The goal is for physicians and nurse practitioners to devote more time to patients and to be more accountable for overall outcomes. Today, nearly 20 percent of the Medicare patients discharged by a hospital are readmitted within 30 days, but ACA’s CommunityBased Transitions Program will strive to lower those numbers, including reductions in hospital-acquired infections. ACA also includes initiatives to increase the safety of seniors and individuals with

disabilities. The Elder Justice Act, Nursing Home Transparency and Improvement Act, and Patient Safety and Abuse Prevention Act seek to prevent and prosecute instances of abuse and to provide better information concerning the quality of institutional care. These initiatives hold much promise for strengthening Medicare and improving the availability of health services to individuals with disabilities. But their ultimate effectiveness will be determined by the countless details needed to move from vision to reality. Bernard A.

Hudson Valley doctors to pioneer primary care reform effort BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

hirteen health care providers in the Hudson Valley region that treat Hudson Health Plan members have been chosen to participate in a Comprehensive Primary Care Initiative by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Starting this fall, the four-year federal project will reward primary care professionals for coordinating care of Medicare fee-forservice patients with complex medical needs in order to reduce overall health costs while improving patients’ health. Hudson Health Plan in Tarrytown, a nonprofit health care organization that provides state-sponsored insurance coverage to more than 115,000

members in the region, will pay a care coordination fee to its providers. Selected providers are: • Westchester County: Comprehensive Primary Care Services, New Rochelle; The Westchester Medical Practice P.C., Yorktown Heights and Peekskill; and Westchester Health Associates, Thornwood. • Putnam County: Northern Heart Specialists, Carmel and Mahopac; and The Westchester Medical Practice P.C., Cold Spring. • Rockland County: Rockland Family Medical Care, West Haverstraw. • Orange County: New Windsor Family Medicine. • Dutchess County: Fishkill Medical and Associates; Health Quest Medical Practice Primary Care, offices in Hopewell Junction, Hyde Park, LaGrangeville, Millbrook and

Poughkeepsie; Hudson Valley Primary Care, Wappingers Falls; and Village Medical P.L.L.C., Pawling. • Sullivan County: River Valley Family Medical Services P.C., Barryville; and Middletown Medical P.C., Ferndale. • Ulster County: Dr. Eugene P. Heslin P.C., Saugerties; and Health Quest Medical Practice Primary Care, Highland. Hudson Health Plan also will provide data to identify patients needing closer supervision and to alert physicians when patients visit specialists and hospital emergency departments or are released from a hospital. It is one of the few managed care plans that already share some of this information with providers. Georganne Chapin, president and CEO of Hudson Health Plan, in a statement said

Westchester & Putnam’s Home Health Care Choice VNS in Westchester & Putnam provides the highest level of quality care to keep you and your loved ones healthy at home: • Nursing Manager in office 7 days a week • Skilled Nursing with Case Management • Rehabilitative Therapies • Chronic Disease Management • In-home Mental Health Care • Medical Social Work • Home Health Aides

the community-based nonprofit was asked to join the federal primary care project with the region’s major insurance companies because of its “pioneering work” with providers. “We intend to share our expertise with other payers and be a catalyst in bringing about a transformative change in health care delivery, and give primary care professionals a real opportunity to improve the health of their patients,” she said.

Visiting Nurse Services in Westchester & Putnam Westchester Care at Home

Nationally, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services chose 500 primary care practices in seven regions for its publicprivate partnership initiative. Hudson Health Plan providers are in New York’s Capital District-Hudson Valley region. Federal officials based their choice on the percentage of the total population in the region covered by insurance payers interested in joining the partnership. Nationally, more than 300,000 Medicare patients will be served by more than 2,000 providers through the initiative. CMS will pay primary care practices a care management fee that initially will average $20 per beneficiary per month. Participating insurance plans such as Hudson Health at the same time will offer enhanced payments to primary care practices on behalf of their plan members. Physician practices were chosen for the project based on their use of health information technology, ability to demonstrate recognition of advanced primary care delivery by leading clinical societies, service to patients covered by participating payers and participation in practice transformation and improvement activities. Medicare officials also sought a diversity of geography, practice size and ownership structure in their selections. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, which will administer the project, was created by the Affordable Care Act of 2010 to test innovative payment and service delivery models that could reduce program expenditures while preserving or enhancing the quality of health care.
