Maine Health Care Association

“The Maine Health Care Association is a statewide association of providers of services to Maine's older and disabled populations. There are 200 members.”

“Association members may elect members of the Board of Directors.”

“Any amendments to the by-laws or other organizational documents are subject to approval by Association members. The approval of the sale, mortgage, lease, or other disposition of all, or substantially all, of the assets and property of association, the dissolution of association, or its merger with or consolidation into another corporation are also subject to approval by Association members as well as any other matter that the directors vote to submit to the members.”

“The Association does not have committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body.”

“Form 990 was provided to each member of the board prior to filing. The draft Form 990 was reviewed by the President and the Board Finance Committee.”

“If a conflict of interest arises, or there is the potential for a conflict, the matter is brought to the attention of the Board Chair or Vice Chair, typically by the Organization's CEO. The full board then hears the potential conflict and votes on whether a conflict exists before the member in question is allowed to vote or take any other action on the matter in question. This same procedure applies should a question of conflict be raised by any member of the board.”

“The Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary/Treasurer and Past Chair determine the compensation package of the President, using comparability data, and summarize their deliberations and decisions in a written letter.”

“Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are made available to the public upon request.”
