If there is a potential conflict of interest related to a particular transaction, the interested individual must disclose the existence and nature of the relationship. The board chair may appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate the conflict. The board may consult with the office of the general counsel as necessary.

In all circumstances involving an actual conflict, the interested individual shall leave the room prior to the board's final discussion and vote.”

“Process for determining compensation: the compensation committee of the sutter health board of directors retains ultimate discretionary authority over all elements of compensation to assure that organizational purposes are appropriately being served. The compensation committee uses credible independent data sources and maintains an objective "arms length" decision-making process, ensuring the integrity of sutter's executive programs and consistency with the organization's overall mission. To ensure external competitiveness, national compensation data comparisons are reviewed. Competitive analysis includes: (a) base salary, (b) total cash (base salary + annual incentive), (c) total direct cash (base salary + annual incentive + long term incentive) and (d) total remuneration (base salary + annual incentive + benefits and long term incentive). This analysis includes national comparisons for organizations similar in size, scope and complexity as sutter health, adjusted to the california market. This method is most appropriate since it is a national marketplace in which sutter competes for executive talent. Officers and key employees of this organization undergo an annual review by the compensation committee or a delegated sub-committee. Approval is recorded in the minutes. The 2024 executive compensation approval was completed in april 2024.”
