“Our organization monitors and reviews proposed and current transactions for conflicts of interest in a variety of ways. At the governing board level, we have board members complete an initial (upon appointment) and annual conflict of interest questionnaire to disclose actual or potential conflicts. Board members are required to update their disclosure as needed in between questionnaires. All disclosures are reviewed by the Compliance Office and as needed escalated to the appropriate leaders/board members for further discussion/review. If a disclosure is viewed as an actual or potential conflict, an action is recommended to the Compliance Committee of the Carilion Clinic Board and implemented as approved. Actions can include recusal in discussion/voting at board meetings, limitation/termination of the transaction, removal from board appointment or other appropriate controls. In addition, at any time, board members are encouraged to disclose any potential conflicts as they arise at a board meeting and to recuse themselves as deemed appropriate. The same process takes place as described above for key employees (upon hire and annually thereafter), including all Officers, members of the management team, physicians/mid-level practitioners, pharmacists and key supply chain buyers. After review and further discussion as needed, action may be required to manage an actual conflict or to reduce the appearance of such as approved by the Compliance Office and other key management team members. As needed, the governing board leaders are notified of any conflicts which may impact board proceedings.”

“Executive compensation is reviewed annually by the Carilion Clinic Board of Directors Compensation Committee. This Committee is made up of independent Board Members of Carilion Clinic who do not have a conflict of interest with any of the executives being reviewed. With respect to Carilion Clinic, the Compensation Committee reviews the compensation of the Board of Governors annually, which includes the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice Presidents (Chief Financial Officer, Chief Medical Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Administrative Officer and Chief Legal Officer), and select Senior Vice Presidents who are the physician Chairs of the Clinical Departments. For the fiscal year covered by this return, the Compensation Committee also used the same process to review the compensation of other Disqualified Individuals, including the Hospital Vice Presidents. In addition, the Compensation Committee annually reviews the compensation philosophy for all executive leaders, which includes Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents, Executive Vice Presidents, and the CEO, as well as the compensation philosophy for employed physicians. This review included review of a comprehensive report from an independent, outside compensation consultant specializing in healthcare organizations for select positions and the prior year's report on all of the reviewed positions. The reports reviewed by the Committee included a detailed comparison of total compensation and each element thereof, including base salary, bonus, 'at-risk' and other cash compensation, and benefits, including deferred and retirement benefits. Compensation was compared to both a national and regional peer group of organizations similar in size and structure to the organization, which list was reviewed by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee maintained detailed minutes of its meetings, setting forth the deliberations and decisions of the Committee regarding the compensation of these executives.”
