“The audit committee shall have the responsibility for reviewing the organization's form 990 (including all pertinent schedules) before it is filed with the internal revenue service. A draft of the form 990 should be ready for review by the audit committee no later than one month prior to the filing deadline. After the draft of the form 990 has been obtained by the audit committee, they will have no more than two weeks to complete their review. In conducting their review of the draft of the form 990, it is preferred that the audit committee shall conduct a top-level or big-picture type of review. However, if the audit committee desires or deems it necessary to conduct a more detailed review of the form 990, then they should contact the preparer of the form 990 to request copies of the relevant detailed tax return workpapers which they would like to see. Once the audit committee has completed its initial review of the form 990, a meeting or conference call will be scheduled with the preparer of the form 990, if needed, to discuss any questions, comments, and suggested revisions. Identified by the audit committee the preparer of the form 990 should make a revision to the form 990 as soon as feasibly possible to ensure that the form 990 is filed with internal revenue service on a timely basis. All questions, comments, and suggested revisions set forth by the audit committee should be documented, along with any responses from the preparer for the form 990, if applicable. After the form 990 has been reviewed by the audit committee, the audit committee will make a presentation at the next full board of directors meeting to update the full board regarding its review of the form 990. At this meeting with the full board of directors, it is not required for the audit committee to review all their questions, comments, and suggested revisions, a summary of their more important points will be sufficient. After the board has approved the form 990, it is filed with the internal revenue service.”

“The board of directors and key management staff will fill out the "annual conflict of interest disclosure questionnaire". Every new executive management staff also signs a conflict of interest statement upon hire. These questionnaires will be reviewed by the chair of the board of directors who will determine appropriate action if a conflict of interest is identified. The board chair will determine specific action, including asking the affected party to resign from his/her position.”

“The board of directors utilizes comparability data published annually by the california primary care association and national association health center for the community clinics compensation and benefit survey to establish compensation for the ceo of the organization. The board of directors determine the compensation for the ceo. All deliberations of board of directors are contemporaneously documented in the minutes. The ceo reviews and approves other officers' salaries. We do use comparability data for all officer salaries.”

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