“The organization is an affiliate within geisinger health and affiliates; a tax-exempt integrated healthcare delivery system ("system"). This federal form 990 was provided to the organization's governing body; its full board of trustees, for review prior to filing with the internal revenue service ("irs"). This organization's governing body has been delegated the form 990 preparation, review and filing process. As part of the tax return preparation process the system 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 prior to providing the federal form 990 to each member of the organization's governing body and filing with the irs. A form 990 presentation was also given by the cpa firm to the organization's board of trustees prior to filing.”

“The organization is an affiliate within geisinger health and affiliates; a tax-exempt integrated healthcare delivery system ("system"). The executive compensation committee ("committee") of the board of trustees ("board") of atlanticare health system, inc. ("ah system") reviews and approves the compensation provided to the executive staff of ah system. The compensation decisions of the committee are set within the framework of a formal compensation philosophy that is approved by the board. The compensation philosophy approves the use of a national peer group of not-for-profit healthcare organizations that are similar to ah system in size and organizational characteristics. The key elements of the compensation philosophy are: total compensation positioned around the 75th percentile, composed of the following elements of pay: - base salaries positioned between the median and the 75th percentile. - incentive opportunities comparable to those of the peer group and designed to position total cash compensation at the 75th percentile for expected performance (includes both annual and long-term incentives). - executive benefits positioned at the 75th percentile. - conservative perquisites and severance. The committee approves the pay of all executives. It sets the compensation for the president and chief executive officer ("president"). The president recommends salary adjustments and incentive award payments to the committee. The committee can approve, modify or reject the president's recommendations as appropriate. Each year, prior to making changes to the compensation of any executive, the committee engages an independent, outside consultant to review each element of executive compensation, including salaries, incentives, benefits, perquisites, and total compensation. The intent of the review is to provide the committee with information it needs to ensure that compensation provided to ah system's executives is reasonable, appropriate, and consistent with the board-approved compensation philosophy. The consultant compiles appropriate comparability data on total compensation from a peer group or organizations comparable to ah system. The committee's process for reviewing executive compensation establishes a "rebuttable presumption of reasonableness," as described in irc section 4958: - compensation for all executives is approved in advance by a committee made up entirely of independent directors with no conflict of interest with regard to the compensation decisions. - the committee obtains and relies on appropriate comparability data on total compensation in making these decisions. ("appropriate" means data on pay for like jobs in like organizations and like circumstances). - the committee documents its process and the terms of its decisions in timely minutes. - the committee obtains and relies on appropriate comparability data on total compensation in making these decisions.

“Charitable purpose =================== armc provides urgent and emergent healthcare services to all individuals and also provides elective procedures to individuals in a non-discriminatory manner regardless of medical condition, race, color, creed, sex, national origins, handicap, age, lifestyle, financial status or ability to pay. Moreover, armc provides healthcare services to patients who meet certain criteria defined by the new jersey department of health and human services without charge or at amounts less than established rates. The cost of providing these services and supplies to patients who meet the state-mandated charity care eligibility requirements approximated $19 million and $25 million for fiscal year 2020 and fiscal year 2019, respectively. The significant reduction in the cost of providing charity care is the result of armc's efforts in assisting patients to enroll in the state medicaid program. The estimated unreimbursed cost of providing care to medicaid patients was $41 million and $45 million for fiscal year 2020 and fiscal year 2019, respectively. Because armc does not pursue collections of amounts determined to qualify as charity care, they are not reported as revenue. Armc also provides free care to patients who do not meet the state eligibility requirements or are not compliant in pursuing eligibility status. Such amounts are included in the consolidated statements of operations and changes in net assets as part of the provision for uncollectibles, net of any recoveries realized through collection efforts. Armc has also instituted a self-pay discount policy that limits charges for medical services to an amount not to exceed the lesser of the calculated amounts generally billed under irc 501(r)(5) or 115% of the applicable medicare reimbursement rate for all qualified uninsured patients who are not eligible for existing state, federal and local programs. Additionally, the company sponsors other charitable programs, which provide substantial benefit to the broader community. Such programs include services to under resourced and elderly population that require specials support, various clinical outreach programs as well as health promotion and education for the general community welfare. Armc's collection policies include discounts for those patients who are uninsured but do not qualify for the state charity care program.
