Doctors Hospital Inc.

“PERFORMANCE-BASED EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The South Florida market for highly competent healthcare executives reflects a very competitive environment for qualified executives. It is comprised of large, national, for profit chains and not-for-profit hospital systems and stand-alone hospitals. The Board of Trustees of Baptist Health South Florida seeks executives of vision and leadership to carry out the organization's faith-based mission of quality care and community service. The Board expects these executives to provide leadership that will place Baptist Health among the best healthcare systems in the nation for quality and excellence. The Board expects executives to demonstrate integrity and loyalty in the performance of their duties and to adhere to Baptist Health Conflict of Interest Policy, Executive Code of Conduct and all compliance/ethics policies. Executive compensation is considered the foundation to attract and retain executives with the talent, experience and character to meet these expectations. The CEO of Doctors Hospital is compensated by Baptist Health South Florida (BHSF), a related organization. The determination of the compensation of the CEO follows the same process delineated herein. The Bylaws of Doctors Hospital delegate the authority to set executive compensation to BHSF. BHSF's Compensation Committee is comprised exclusively of independent Board members who serve voluntarily without any remuneration, and who must adhere to a stringent conflict of interest policy that precludes them or their families from doing business with Baptist Health. The Committee is responsible for reviewing the performance and approving the compensation for executives. The term "compensation" includes salaries, benefits and incentives. The Compensation Committee annually engages a nationally-recognized, independent consultant to conduct compensation surveys and to advise the Board on compensation policies. The Compensation Committee decisions are based on the following: 1. Total Compensation Package: Recruitment and retention of capable, productive executives is accomplished through design of a total compensation package that includes a base salary, at-risk incentive pay, and benefits. It is the objective of Baptist Health to ensure a consistent compensation philosophy across all employee and leadership levels that rewards outstanding performance using a cash plus employee benefits package targeting the 75th percentile. Base salaries of fully productive executives are indexed to the median (50th percentile) salary paid by similar healthcare organizations. Incentive pay for superior achievement provides the opportunity for total cash compensation at the 75th percentile of the executive's peer group if the executive exceeds his/her performance metrics. 2. Performance-based Salary Increases: One of the key elements of Baptist Health's executive compensation philosophy is "pay for performance." Salary increases are based upon the degree to which each executive achieves his/her individual performance objectives for the year, which are tied to corporate objectives. Generally these objectives relate to clinical quality; patient, physician and community satisfaction; charity care and mission goals; financial performance and expense management. Individual and group performance against these objectives is reviewed by the Compensation Committee and Board of Trustees annually after the close of the fiscal year. 3. Market-based Salary Increases: The Board's Compensation Committee reviews the market value of executive positions annually to assure that Baptist Health's pay levels are competitive. The independent consultant, selected by the Compensation Committee, obtains executive salary information for functionally comparable positions at healthcare institutions of comparable size within Florida and the United States. Baptist Health's peer group is comprised of other complex not-for-profit hospital systems of similar size ($2.5 billion in reve”

“Employee conflict of interest an actual, potential or perceived conflict of interest occurs in those circumstances where an employee's judgement could be affected because the employee has a personal interest, other than the receipt of compensation from baptist health south florida, inc. And its affiliates ("bhsf"), in the outcome of a decision over which the employee has control or influence. For the purposes of this policy, it is presumed that managers have control or influence over any decision affecting a matter for which a manager has responsibility. A personal interest exists when an employee or a member of his or her family stands to directly or indirectly obtain financial gain as a result of a decision. This policy is intended for all employees in order that they may understand, identify, manage and appropriately disclose those transactions which could result in an actual, potential or perceived conflict of interest. In accordance with our code of ethics, high ethical standards must be observed in the negotiation and execution of all business activities conducted at, by or with bhsf. Any decisions made by bhsf employees must be made in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, with the best organizational interests of bhsf as the highest priority and without regard to the personal gain or interest of any other person or entity. Likewise, the appearance of any such improper influence on any decisions should be consciously avoided. Employees should also adhere to policy 828 which prohibits vendor sponsored travel and policy 829 limiting acceptance of personal honorariums and policy 831 which provides limitations and guidelines on philanthropic solicitation of vendors. A potential or perceived conflict or interest may exist irrespective of the intent of the employee.”

“Board conflict policy baptist health and its affiliates have a strong and robust conflict of interest policy. The policy is meant to ensure that each voting member of the board of trustees governs the affairs of baptist health with honesty and integrity and makes decisions for the benefit of baptist health. Voting board members may not be employed by baptist health nor engaged to provide services to baptist health in exchange for cash compensation. Conflict free decision making extends beyond the board members. Transactions that might benefit (i) the private interest of a member or his or her family (ii) an organization controlled by a member or his or her family (iii) an organization in which a member or his or her family has a material interest. Since the appearance of a conflict of interest may be as damaging to baptist health's reputation as actually permitting a conflict to exist, each board member has a continuing obligation to disclose any potential conflicts. This continuing obligation is supplemented by an annual certification that the board member is free from actual or potential conflicts of interest. The annual certification is reviewed by the vice president of compliance who reports directly to the board. Potential conflicts are further reviewed by the board's ethics committee. If a conflict does exist, the conflicted board member may be required to (i) resign from the board or (ii) eliminate the relationship which gives rise to the conflict.”

All disclosures and the related research are summarized for the ethics committee of the baptist health board of trustees. Any disclosures that may result in the appearance of a conflict are addressed by the committee for its consideration and resolution.”
