“Catholic Health Initiatives ("CHI") has a Conflicts of Interest ("COI") policy in place to maintain the integrity of all of its activities. The policy applies to CHI Board of Stewardship Trustees and members of its committees; all board and board committee members of CHI Entities; all CHI employees; all CHI physicians (both employed and non-employed) and all physician administrators and leaders; advanced practice clinicians (both employed and non-employed); and all CHI research personnel (both employed and non-employed). Disclosure, review and management of perceived, potential or actual conflicts of interest are accomplished through a defined COI disclosure process. Each person has a general ongoing obligation to promptly and fully report to his/her direct manager, supervisor, medical staff office, board or board committee chair any situation or circumstance that may create a conflict of interest. The person must report the actual or potential conflict as soon as she/he becomes aware of it. In any situation where the person may be in doubt, a full disclosure should be made to permit an impartial and objective determination. In addition to the general ongoing obligation, there are initial disclosure obligations. The board, board committee members, and new employees are required to make disclosures at the time of their initial hiring/appointment. All non-employed, credentialed or contracted physicians are required to make disclosures at the time of their credentialing and during any subsequent reappointment or recredentialing. All researchers are required to make disclosures upon consideration of affiliation with a research sponsor. In addition to the general ongoing and initial disclosure obligations, there is an annual disclosure obligation. All corporate officers, board and board committee members, employees at the level of manager and above, researchers, supply chain employees, employed physicians, physician administrators and leaders, and employed advanced practice clinicians must complete a new conflict of interest disclosure annually. Disclosures of perceived, potential or actual conflicts involving financial interests are forwarded to the Conflicts of Interest Review Committee ("C-CIRC") or Legal Services Group for review depending on the position of the person involved. The C-CIRC reviews COI questionnaires containing disclosures of perceived or possible conflicts for employees at a level of manager or above, supply chain employees, researchers and physicians, physician administrators and leaders, and advanced practice clinicians (both employed and non-employed). In the determination of a conflict, a COI management plan will be developed for that person. With respect to those audiences for which the C-CIRC has review responsibility, the C-CIRC will facilitate development of any such conflict of interest management plan in collaboration with local CRP staff. A designated CHI Entity staff will be responsible for monitoring the COI management plan and for documenting monitoring activities. At its sole discretion, a CHI Entity may reject a Person's request to enter into the relationship in question, or require the relationship be sufficiently altered to avoid a potential COI. If the C-CIRC determines that there is a potential or actual conflict of interest that does not currently have appropriate controls to address the conflict of interest, it may recommend that the disclosing person be allowed to participate in the activity or transaction subject to restrictions as outlined in the COI management plan. If a Person does not agree with a determination made by the C-CIRC, its interpretation of the Policy or Addenda, or seeks an exemption or exception, the following steps should be followed. The Employee disputing the review decision, interpretation of the Policy, or seeking exemption or exception must present the matter to the Employee's immediate direct manager or supervisor for review and determination.

“The organization's top management official's compensation is paid by Catholic Health Initiatives (CHI), a related organization. CHI has a defined compensation philosophy. Both the executive and non-executive compensation structures and ranges are reviewed annually in comparison to market data. CHI uses The Korn Ferry Hay Group as the independent third party to assess executive compensation programs and to ensure the reasonableness of actual salaries and total compensation packages. Compensation of the senior most executives is reviewed annually. The Korn Ferry Hay Group reviews both cash and total compensation for overall reasonableness, for adherence to CHI's compensation philosophy, and for comparability to the not-for-profit healthcare market. This independent review is delivered by Korn Ferry Hay Group to the HR committee of the CHI Board of Stewardship Trustees annually at their September meeting and minutes are shared with the full board at the December meeting. The last review was September 13, 2016. In addition, Korn Ferry Hay Group completed a comprehensive review of all positions at the level of vice president and above in the fall of 2014 to determine and validate appropriate compensation levels. These levels have been reviewed annually since and revised based on market data, where applicable.”
