“Form 990, part vi, line 15a - compensation process for top official chrhf has delegated authority for executive compensation to chnw. Chnw has adopted an executive compensation and intermediate sanctions policy that applies to chrhf. The purpose of the policy is to ensure that chrhf's compensation arrangements with related parties are evaluated and entered at arms length and that any compensation that is paid to a related party is reasonable and reflects fair market value. This policy encourages the application of the rebuttable presumption standard of code section 4958 and the related treasury regulations by: a) excluding any interested party from the decision making process, b) requiring disinterested board or committee members to obtain and rely upon comparability data when setting the proposed compensation terms, c) requiring approval of the transaction in advance by disinterested directors or committee members, and d) requiring contemporaneous documentation (i.e. Minutes) reflecting the decision and the process by which it was made. Chnw also delegated authority regarding chrhf's executive compensation to a) the network executive compensation committee, composed of independent outside directors, which is responsible for applying the terms and process of the executive compensation and intermediate sanctions policy as outlined above, and b) the network chief human resources officer who is responsible for obtaining comparative salary market data for the chief executive officer, officers, and key employees, engaging an independent compensation consultant to provide reasonable compensation analysis and/or confirm the reasonableness of compensation, and providing staff support to the network executive compensation committee. During 2022, the network executive compensation committee followed this process for all senior executive leaders. Form 990, part vi, line 15b - compensation process for officers salaries were compared against comparative salary market data for all positions representing managers, chief executive officers, chief financial officers, and human resources representatives for all network entities.”
