“Annually, every board member, physician, advanced practitioner and manager (which includes key employees) must complete a comprehensive questionnaire that provides for the disclosure of potential conflicts. All disclosures are reviewed by the Compliance Officer. Those disclosures that are questionable or may rise to the level of a conflict are discussed with the Chief Legal Officer and appropriate action is taken, if necessary. A summary of disclosures is provided to the Audit Committee (for management) and to the Governance Committee (for Board members) annually.”

“The Compensation Committee ("Committee") of the Board of Directors of GBMC Healthcare, Inc., which is comprised of directors that are "disinterested" as defined by IRS regulations, is authorized to oversee the organization's executive compensation program. The Committee reviews and approves the compensation provided to the organization's President and Chief Executive Officer and each officer, key employee and senior leader, whether or not these individuals would be considered "disqualified persons" under the intermediate sanctions regulations of federal income tax law. The Committee has adopted a written philosophy setting forth the guiding principles governing the compensation provided to the organization's executives. The Committee's review and approval process was established and is conducted in a manner so as to qualify for the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness under the intermediate sanctions regulations of federal income tax law. All forms of compensation and benefits provided to members of the senior leadership team are reviewed, which includes current and deferred compensation and all employee benefits, both qualified and non-qualified to ensure that the "total compensation" is reasonable. The Committee engaged an independent executive compensation consultant that specializes in the review of hospital and health system executive compensation and benefits to compile market compensation data of similarly sized health care organizations throughout the country as well as the same geographic region. No data from any for-profit entities were used. The data were categorized by executive position, and a salary range was developed with the assistance of the independent compensation consultant. The Committee relied upon this data, relevant business judgment factors (e.g., experience, performance, recruitment and retention factors and the unique demands of the position), the guidance provided by the stated compensation philosophy and the written opinion of the independent executive compensation consultant as to the reasonableness of the compensation in relation to market data in making its executive compensation decisions. The Committee also considers its business judgment. The Committee documents the basis for its decisions through the timely preparation of written minutes of the compensation committee meetings during which such decisions are deliberated and determined. The Committee's decisions are subject to the final approval of the Board of Directors.”
