Aghs follows a process for determining compensation of the organization's ceo and other top management personnel that is modeled after the requirements found in internal revenue code section 4958 for establishing the presumption of reasonable compensation. Therefore, the process calls for recommendations - developed by an independent compensation consultant, based on comparable market data from published surveys and the forms 990 of comparable organizations - that are within the range of the compensation of similarly situated persons at similarly situated organizations. These recommendations are reviewed by the compensation committee of aghs. The compensation committee is comprised of independent persons and the deliberations are documented, contemporaneously, in the committee's minutes of all organizations within the health system. The compensation for the reporting organization's top management was reviewed for reasonableness using this process in 2012.”
