“The organization has adopted dignity health's conflicts of interest policy. During the period july 1, 2019 - june 30, 2020, dignity health was subject to written conflict of interest policies (the "coi policies."). These policies, provide for the disclosure and subsequent review and management of conflicts of interest that may exist for members of dignity health's governing bodies, including its board of directors and board committees, as well as dignity health's officers and executive leaders, key employees, management personnel at the vice president level and above, and any other designated personnel ("covered persons"). All covered persons are required to disclose actual or potential conflicts arising from the business, ownership, financial and personal interests held by such covered persons or their family members. Covered persons are required to disclose to their supervisors or relevant decision makers any interest that may present a conflict of interest, or the appearance of a conflict of interest. Such disclosure is required on a transactional basis at the time such conflicts arise, when an individual becomes a covered person (e.g. Upon hiring or upon promotion), and annually thereafter. As part of the annual disclosure survey conducted pursuant to the coi policies, each covered person is required to certify that he/she: (1) has received a copy of the coi policy or coi policies applicable to his/her position; (2) has read the coi policy and understands said policy; and (3) agrees to comply with all requirements of the coi policy, including completing the conflicts of interest disclosure survey as required by the coi policies. The information from the annual disclosure survey is used to monitor and manage disclosed conflicts of interest and assure decisions are made in the organization's best interests. The procedures for addressing a conflict of interest related to a proposed transaction in the case of governing bodies require that the board shall carefully scrutinize and must in good faith either approve or disapprove any transaction in which dignity health or a dignity health entity is a party and in which the director either: has a material financial interest or is a director or corporate officer of the other party (other than a dignity health-affiliated organization). The board must approve the transaction by majority of the directors on the board, without counting the vote of any individual who has an interest in the transaction. In reviewing such transactions between dignity health or dignity health entities and vendors or other contractors who are, or are affiliated with, directors, the board shall act no more or less favorably than it would in reviewing transactions with unrelated third parties. The transaction will not be approved unless the board determines that the transaction is fair to dignity health or the dignity health entity.”

“Federal tax laws do not mandate that the organization's governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements be made available for public inspection. The organization is included in commonspirit health's consolidated financial statements which are available on dignity health's and commonspirit health's websites and upon request.”

“One or more of the individuals who provide services to the organization as officers, directors or key employees are members of a religious congregation. Since all such sisters are subject to vows of poverty, fair market value compensation for their services is paid directly or indirectly to the religious congregation of which they are a member. The non-taxable benefits are paid on behalf of the order.”
