The saint peter's healthcare system, inc. Audit and compliance committee has assumed the responsibility to oversee and coordinate the federal form 990 preparation, review and filing process. As part of the organization's federal form 990 tax return preparation process the organization hired a professional 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 system individuals including, but not limited to, the chief financial officer, controller and other system individuals ("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 internal working group, for review. The organization's 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 internal working group for final review and approval. Following this approval, the system's audit and compliance committee reviewed the form 990 at a regularly scheduled meeting.

“The organization is an affiliate within saint peter's healthcare system, inc. And affiliates; a tax-exempt integrated healthcare delivery system ("system"), which includes saint peter's university hospital ("spuh"). This filing organization itself has no paid senior management personnel receiving compensation directly from this organization. Rather, key senior management personnel are employed by spuh; the tax-exempt hospital within the healthcare system. However, the compensation and benefits of these individuals are shown on this tax return because they are also either officers and/or board members of this organization. Spuh has an executive compensation committee ("committee") that reviews the total compensation of senior management including, but not limited to, that of the president/chief executive officer and chief financial officer. Total compensation 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 spuh and system 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 trustees 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, similar sized hospitals, # of licensed beds and net patient service revenue. The committee adequately documented its basis for its determination. The actions outlined above, with respect to the committee and the establishment of the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness, only applies to certain senior management personnel. The compensation and benefits of certain other individuals contained in this form 990 are reviewed annually by the president/chief executive officer with assistance from spuh'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 spuh and system. Other objective factors include market survey data for comparable positions, individual goals and objectives, personnel reviews, evaluations, self-evaluations and performance feedback meetings.”
