“The organization is an affiliate within the guthrie clinic and affiliates; a tax-exempt integrated healthcare delivery system ("system"). The guthrie clinic is the tax-exempt parent entity of the system. The organization's federal form 990 was provided to each voting member of the organization's governing body (its board of directors) prior to the filing of the federal form 990 with the internal revenue service ("irs"). As part of the tax return preparation process the organization hired a professional certified public accounting ("cpa") firm with experience and expertise in both healthcare and not-for-profit tax return preparation to prepare the federal form 990. The cpa firm's tax professionals worked closely with the organization's finance personnel and internal working group to obtain the information needed in order to prepare a complete and accurate tax return. The cpa firm prepared a draft federal form 990 and furnished it to the organization's finance personnel and internal working group for their review. The organization's finance personnel and internal working group reviewed the draft federal form 990 and discussed questions and comments with the cpa firm. Revisions were made to the draft federal form 990 where necessary and a final draft was furnished by the cpa firm to the organization's finance personnel and internal working group for final review and approval. Following this review, the final form 990 was provided to each voting member of this organization's governing body prior to filing with the irs.”

“The conflict of interest disclosure policy sets forth that all persons, including employees, agents and board/committee members, particularly those involved in decision-making for the guthrie clinic ("tgc"), act in an appropriate manner and will not participate in any actions that might create a personal or professional conflict of interest and/or not be in the best interest of tgc.

“The organization is an affiliate within the guthrie clinic and affiliates; a tax-exempt integrated healthcare delivery system which includes the guthrie clinic ("tgc"); a related internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Tgc's board of directors maintains the guthrie clinic compensation committee ("committee"). The committee has adopted a written executive compensation philosophy which it follows when it reviews and approves of the compensation and benefits of tgc's senior management. The committee also reviews the compensation and benefits of other officers and key employees of the guthrie clinic and affiliates; including, without limitation, the chief executive officers of the guthrie clinic and affiliates hospitals and medical centers. The committee, which is required by the corporation's bylaws to be comprised solely of independent directors, seeks guidance and substantiation from a nationally recognized compensation consultant. The committee reviews the "total compensation" of the individuals which is intended to include both current and deferred compensation and all employee benefits, both qualified and non-qualified. The committee's review is done on at least an annual basis and ensures that the "total compensation" of senior management of the organization is reasonable. The actions taken by the committee enable the organization to receive the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness for purposes of internal revenue code section 4958 with respect to the total compensation of certain members of the senior management team. The three factors which must be satisfied in order to receive the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness are the following: 1. The compensation arrangement is approved in advance by an "authorized body" of the applicable tax-exempt organization which is composed entirely of individuals who do not have a "conflict of interest" with respect to the compensation arrangement; 2. The authorized body obtained and relied upon "appropriate data as to comparability" prior to making its determination; and 3. The authorized body "adequately documented the basis for its determination" concurrently with making that determination. The committee is comprised of members of the board of directors each of who are independent and are free from any conflicts of interest. The committee relied upon appropriate comparable data; specifically, the committee obtained a written compensation study from an independent firm which specializes in the review of hospital and healthcare system executive compensation and benefits throughout the united states. This study used comparable geographic and demographic market data including, but not limited to, similarly sized healthcare systems and hospitals, # of licensed beds and net patient service revenue. The committee adequately documented the basis for its determination through the timely preparation of written minutes of the compensation committee meetings during which the executive compensation and benefits was reviewed and subsequently approved. The actions outlined above with respect to the committee and the establishment of the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness applies to certain tgc senior management personnel. The compensation and benefits of certain other individuals contained in this form 990, where applicable, are reviewed annually by the guthrie clinic and affiliates president/chief executive officer with assistance from the organization's human resources department in conjunction with the individual's job performance during the year and is based upon other objective factors designed to ensure that reasonable and fair market value compensation is paid by the organization. Other objective factors include market survey data for comparable positions, individual goals and objectives, personnel reviews, evaluations, self-evaluations and performance feedback meetings.”
