Any vacancy occurring in the office of a trustee shall be filled by official action of the board of trustees of texas children's.”

“Under the currently enacted corporate bylaws of the organization, a trustee shall hold office until his respective death, resignation, expiration or term of office or removal.

Any trustee may be removed from office, with or without cause, by official action of the board of trustees of texas children's.”

“No such committees exist.”

“Per a resolution approved by the member's board of trustees, the member board's audit, compliance, & risk committee has delegated authority to review the organization's completed Form 990 prior to filing. Following the audit, compliance, & risk Committee's review and approval, the completed Form 990 is shared with the members of the organization's board of directors and board of trustees prior to filing with the IRS.”

“The organization consistently monitors and enforces the conflict of interest policy through two separate processes, one that applies to the board members, and a second that applies to officers and key employees. 1) board members: per the organization's board-approved conflicts review process, responses to the annual conflicts questionnaire are reviewed by the member's board leadership and presented to the member's audit, compliance, & risk committee. If the committee deems there are any significant issues, the responses are then reviewed by the member board's executive committee and any required action (recusement from board deliberations related to the conflict, etc.) is taken in accordance with the organization's board-approved code of conduct. 2) officers / key employees: per the organization's board-approved conflicts review process, responses to the annual conflicts questionnaire are reviewed by the compliance services department. If the department deems there are any significant issues, required action is taken in accordance with the organization's board-approved code of conduct and the board is notified of such actions.”

“The governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available to the public upon request.”

“Compensation for the organization's top management official is paid by texas children's hospital, a related tax exempt organization. Because the organization's top management official is not paid by the filing organization, question 15a has been answered no.”

“Compensation for the organization's other officers is paid by texas children's hospital, a related tax exempt organization. Because the organization's other officers are not paid by the filing organization, question 15b has been answered no.”

“Texas children's hospital (74-1100555) is responsible for all form 1096 and form 1099 filings. As such, this information is reported on the texas children's hospital form 990.”
