After exercising due diligence, the board shall evaluate the resulting alternatives presented by the appointed person or committee.

The compensation committee, consisting of a majority of independent board members, reviews market data, evaluates ceo performance and reviews ceo recommendations for compensation for other executive officers. The committee presents its recommendations for ceo to the board. Decisions are made in a board meeting. The board reviews the recommendation for the compensation of all other employees as part of the budget approval process. The process of determining the compensation of top management officials and key officers includes a review of an independent consultant's report of comparable salaries of similar organizations and is guided by written compensation practices. With the ceo and all other officers absent from the meetings, the board approves the salary of the ceo.

“Since 1995, housecall providers, pc have been the solution for over 8,000 community members whose medical needs could not be met in a traditional clinical setting. These chronically ill people, many of whom are homebound, are often forced to rely on emergency room visits and hospitalizations to manage their multiple chronic illnesses. These trips take their toll on an already over-burdened body and are incredibley costly to our health care system. Housecall providers, pc has been a trusted source for delivering home-based primary care throughout the portland metro area. Since our modest beginnings, we have grown to serve more than 2,500 patients and families a year and expanded our services to include transition and palliative care services. By training our doctors, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants to implement team-based, proactive primary medical care where our patients live, we help prevent those expensive trips to the hospital and unnecessary skilled nursing facility stays. Not only does this set a new standard for the quality-of-care patients can expect at home, but it also improves patient health outcomes and lowers health care costs. Since housecall providers, pc joined the careoregon family in may of 2017, we integrated the advanced illness care team into our continuum of home-based medical care. Unifying these services has made care transitions smoother, cut down on patient wait times and made communication more efficient. The team includes nurses, social workers, outreach specialists, a chaplain, and a pharmacist who all have the flexibility to make home, clinic and hospital visits. The advanced illness care team works closely with providers and health care teams to focus on the patient's goals of care, symptom management and care coordination. Housecall providers, pc employees also provicde healthcare support to other careoregon entities. Through our six-year involvement in the medicare demonstration project, independence at home, housecall providers, pc along with 14 other program sites across the u.s., is helping to prove to the centers for medicare and medicaid services (cms) that value-based reimbursement, not fee-for-service, is the appropriate payment model to provide home-based medical care for the vulnerable population we serve. We worked strategically with our board of directors, parent and community partners and demonstrated our commitment to minimize health dispartities for people of color, those most harmed by systematic and structure oppression and the community we serve. Our commitment was demonstrated by us playing a vital role in continuing to provide the care they deserve during covid-19 pandemic and wildfire that severely impacted our patients, employees and other community partners in our operating territory. While our workforce continued to be on the front line of the covid-19 crisis, we immediately established telehealth capabilities in april of 2020 so that we could continue to serve our patients while minimizing the risk of spreading the virus. We continued to focus on our patients' access to essential services and care integration by ensuring our patients have access to culturally and linguistically appropriate care that is coordinated in the home-based settling.”
