“Park nicollet health service's (pnhs) president and its officers are employed by either group health plan, inc. (ghi), a related organization, or by pnhs. Ghi and pnhs have an annual process to review the market comparability of the total compensation of the pnhs's president and other officers. Every three years, the independent compensation committee of the ghi board of directors (the "committee"), retains an external compensation expert to conduct an extensive market comparability review for all officers of the organization. The review includes all components of total compensation: base salary, annual incentives, benefits and perquisites. The market survey results are presented to, reviewed by and approved by the appropriate committee. Based on this data, the compensation committee of ghi (the "committees") determine minimum and maximum total compensation ranges for each employed officer. In interim years, ghi's human resources staff, under the committees' direction, updates changes in the salary structure based on the same independent studies performed by the compensation consultant for the committee. For certain positions full independent reviews are performed to set salary ranges based on the competitive market data specific to those positions. The committee reviews and approves each year's compensation results. In all cases, committee members complete an annual conflict of interest survey to assure the compensation committee members' independence and this is updated at any meeting at which decisions are being made. Staff (other than the secretary to the board) is not in the room during deliberations or vote including executive sessions, and contemporaneous minutes are kept. The board has delegated to the executive committee the accountability to conduct an annual performance evaluation and to determine the compensation of the ceo based on the performance review and the market comparability data approved by the compensation committee. The pnhs president or other officers delegated by the pnhs president (with authority to further delegate to executives with leadership roles of park nicollet officers) conducts annual performance reviews and determine the compensation of all pnhs-employed officers within the compensation ranges determined by the committee. Any exceptions in excess of the approved ranges need to be approved by the executive committee. Total compensation is appropriately documented on the form 990 and on the employee's w-2”
