Identifier ReturnReference Explanation
PART I, QUESTION 3C   TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE CARE THE ORGANIZATION USES THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES (FPG) FOR FAMILY INCOMES THAT ARE AT OR BELOW 200% OF FPG. PARTIAL WRITE-OFF OF THE HOSPITAL'S UNDISCOUNTED CHARGES APPLIES TO UNINSURED PATIENTS WHOSE FAMILY INCOMES ARE BETWEEN 201% AND 400%. IN ADDITION, THE FOLLOWING DISCOUNTS APPLY TO UNINSURED PATIENTS: - SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES CHARITY CARE: FOR UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO DO NOT MEET THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE CRITERIA SET FORTH BY THE ORGANIZATION, A COMPLETE OR PARTIAL WRITE-OFF IN CIRCUMSTANCES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO BANKRUPTCY, HOMELESSNESS, DECEASED, ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICARE/MEDI-CAL, OR IF A COLLECTION AGENCY IDENTIFIES A PATIENT MEETING THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITY CARE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. - CATASTROPHIC CHARITY CARE: PARTIAL WRITE-OFF WHEN THE FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY EXCEEDS 30% OF THE PATIENT'S FAMILY INCOME. PATIENTS THAT MEET THE CRITERIA WILL RECEIVE A FULL WRITE-OFF OF UNDISCOUNTED CHARGES THAT EXCEED 30% OF THEIR FAMILY INCOME. - HIGH MEDICAL COST CHARITY CARE (FOR INSURED PATIENTS): PARTIAL WRITE-OFF OF THE HOSPITAL'S UNDISCOUNTED CHARGES FOR PATIENTS WHOSE FAMILY INCOME IS LESS THAN 350% OF FPG, MEDICAL EXPENSES EXCEED 10% OF THE PATIENT'S FAMILY INCOME, AND THE PATIENT'S INSURER HAS NOT PROVIDED A DISCOUNT. - UNINSURED PATIENT DISCOUNT: A WRITE-OFF OF A PORTION OF COVERED SERVICES NO GREATER THAN THE CURRENT AVERAGE COMMERCIAL FEE-FOR-SERVICE DISCOUNT WITH MANAGED CARE PAYERS FOR PATIENTS WHOSE BENEFITS UNDER INSURANCE OR A GOVERNMENT PROGRAM HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED PRIOR TO ADMISSION. - PROMPT PAYMENT DISCOUNT: PARTIAL WRITE-OFF AVAILABLE TO UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO PAY PROMPTLY, CONSISTING OF AT LEAST A 10% DISCOUNT FOR THOSE WHO PAY WITHIN 30 DAYS OF FINAL BILLING, OR A 20% DISCOUNT IF 50% OF THE ESTIMATED BILL IS PAID PRIOR TO DISCHARGE.
PART I, QUESTION 7   COSTING METHODOLOGY USED: COST TO CHARGE RATION UTILIZING WORKSHEET 2 METHODOLOGY.
PART II   COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES - COALITION BUILDING - PHYSICAL IMPROVEMENTS
PART III, QUESTION 4   THE ORGANIZATION MAKES EVERY EFFORT TO QUALIFY THOSE ELIGIBLE FOR CHARITY CARE. IF A PATIENT HAS APPLIED FOR CHARITY CARE, HAS BEEN APPROVED TO RECEIVE CHARITY CARE, OR IS COOPERATING WITH THE HOSPITAL'S EFFORTS TO SETTLE AN OUTSTANDING BILL WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME PERIOD, THE HOSPITAL WILL NOT PURSUE COLLECTIONS. 1. AUDIT FOOTNOTE THE ORGANIZATION IS AN AFFILIATE OF SUTTER HEALTH WHICH UNDERWENT A SYSTEM-WIDE AUDIT. THE AUDIT REPORT DOES NOT INCLUDE A BAD DEBT EXPENSE FOOTNOTE. PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS IS LISTED ON A SEPARATE LINE ITEM IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE AUDIT DOES INCLUDE FOOTNOTES FOR PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND PATIENT SERVICE REVENUES LISTED BELOW. PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AUDIT FOOTNOTE: SUTTER'S PRIMARY CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK IS PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, WHICH CONSIST OF AMOUNTS OWED BY VARIOUS GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES, INSURANCE COMPANIES AND PRIVATE PATIENTS. SUTTER MANAGES THE RECEIVABLES BY REGULARLY REVIEWING ITS PATIENT ACCOUNTS AND CONTRACTS AND BY PROVIDING APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCES FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE AMOUNTS. SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATIONS OF GROSS PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE AS FOLLOWS: MEDICARE 28% AS OF 12/31/10 27% AS OF 12/31/09 MEDI-CAL 20% AS OF 12/31/10 20% AS OF 12/31/09 DURING 2010 AND 2009, CERTAIN AFFILIATES COLLECTED ON ACCOUNTS THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY DEEMED UNCOLLECTIBLE AND RESERVED. SUCH RECOVERIES ARE RECOGNIZED IN THE PERIOD THAT CASH IS RECEIVED AND WERE NOT MATERIAL. DUE TO THE INHERENT VARIABILITY IN THIS AREA OF PATIENT RECEIVABLE COLLECTIONS, THERE IS AT LEAST A REASONABLE POSSIBILITY THAT RECORDED ESTIMATES WILL CHANGE BY A MATERIAL AMOUNT IN THE NEAR TERM. PATIENT SERVICE REVENUES FOOTNOTE: PATIENT SERVICE REVENUES ARE REPORTED AT THE ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE AMOUNTS FROM PATIENTS, THIRD-PARTY PAYORS AND OTHERS FOR SERVICES RENDERED, INCLUDING ESTIMATED RETROACTIVE ADJUSTMENTS UNDER REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAMS WITH THIRD-PARTY PAYORS. ESTIMATED SETTLEMENTS UNDER THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAMS ARE ACCRUED IN THE PERIOD THE RELATED SERVICES ARE RENDERED AND ADJUSTED IN FUTURE PERIODS, PRIMARILY AS A RESULT OF FINAL COST REPORT SETTLEMENTS WITH GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES. 2. METHODOLOGY FOR CALCULATING BAD DEBT (AT COST) THE RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST TO CHARGES IS APPLIED TO THE BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS TO CALCULATE THE ESTIMATED COST OF BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO PATIENT ACCOUNTS THAT IS REPORTED ON LINE 2. DISCOUNTS AND PAYMENTS ON PATIENT ACCOUNTS ARE RECORDED AS AN ADJUSTMENT TO REVENUE, NOT BAD DEBT EXPENSE. 3. METHODOLOGY FOR DETERMINING THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT LIKELY ATTRIBUTABLE TO CHARITY CARE AMOUNTS MAY BE INCLUDED IN BAD DEBT PENDING A CHARITY CARE DETERMINATION. UPON ELIGIBILITY THESE AMOUNTS WOULD BE RECLASSIFIED AS CHARITY CARE.
PART III, QUESTION 7   MEDICARE COST REPORTS THAT THE ORGANIZATION FILES DO NOT INCLUDE ALL OF THE COSTS REQUIRED TO TREAT MEDICARE PATIENTS. THEREFORE THE AMOUNT REFLECTED ON THE COST REPORT WILL LIKELY DIFFER FROM ACTUAL COSTS WHICH MAY BE REFLECTED IN THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT AND ON THIS FORM.
PART III, QUESTION 8   COSTING METHODOLOGY MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS WERE CALCULATED USING A COST TO CHARGE RATIO. COMMUNITY BENEFIT MEDICARE SHORTFALL THE IRS COMMUNITY BENEFIT STANDARD INCLUDES THE PROVISION OF CARE TO THE ELDERLY AND MEDICARE PATIENTS. CARING FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS FULFILLS A COMMUNITY NEED AND RELIEVES A GOVERNMENT BURDEN AS THESE PATIENTS TYPICALLY HAVE LOW AND/OR FIXED INCOMES. MEDICARE DOES NOT PROVIDE SUFFICIENT REIMBURSEMENT TO COVER THE COST OF PROVIDING CARE FOR THESE PATIENTS FORCING THE HOSPITAL TO USE OTHER FUNDS TO COVER THE DEFICIT OF $54,031,911.
PART III, QUESTION 9B   COLLECTION PRACTICES ARE CONSISTENT FOR ALL PATIENTS AND COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA LAW. DURING PREADMISSION OR REGISTRATION, THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES ALL PATIENTS WITH INFORMATION REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. AN UNINSURED PATIENT WHO INDICATES THE FINANCIAL INABILITY TO PAY A BILL IS EVALUATED FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. PATIENTS WILL BE GIVEN AN APPLICATION WHICH WILL DOCUMENT THE PATIENT'S OVERALL FINANCIAL SITUATION. IF AN UNINSURED PATIENT DOES NOT COMPLETE THE APPLICATION FORM WITHIN 30 DAYS OF DELIVERY, THE HOSPITAL WILL NOTIFY THE PATIENT THAT THE APPLICATION HAS NOT BEEN RECEIVED AND WILL PROVIDE THE PATIENT AN ADDITIONAL 30 DAYS TO COMPLETE THE APPLICATION. IF A PATIENT HAS APPLIED FOR CHARITY CARE, HAS BEEN APPROVED TO RECEIVE CHARITY CARE, OR IS COOPERATING WITH THE HOSPITAL'S EFFORTS TO SETTLE AN OUTSTANDING BILL WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME PERIOD, THE HOSPITAL WILL NOT PURSUE COLLECTIONS.

COMMUNITY INFORMATION:   THE AFFILIATES IN THE SUTTER HEALTH SACRAMENTO SIERRA REGION SERVE PLACER, SACRAMENTO, YOLO, SOLANO AND AMADOR COUNTIES. THE COUNTIES INCLUDE BOTH RURAL AND URBAN COMMUNITIES THAT ARE VERY DIVERSE - FROM COMMUNITIES SERVING A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF MIGRANT FARM WORKERS (YOLO), AN URBAN CITY THAT WAS NAMED THE MOST DIVERSE CITY IN THE UNITED STATES (SACRAMENTO), TO A COUNTY WITH THE HIGHEST PER CAPITA INCOME IN THE STATE (PLACER COUNTY). THE PERCENT ELIGIBLE FOR MEDI-CAL DEMONSTRATES THE VAST DIFFERENCE OF THESE COUNTIES. IN 2006, CALIFORNIA HAD 17.8% ELIGIBLE FOR MEDI-CAL. DURING THE SAME YEAR, PLACER HAD 8%, YOLO HAD 13% AND SACRAMENTO HAD 19% ELIGIBLE. MAJORITY OF THE HEALTH INDICATORS AND DEMOGRAPHIC DATA FOR THESE THREE COUNTIES FOLLOWS THIS TREND.

Identifier Return Reference Explanation
RELEVANT INFORMATION REGARDING COMPENSATION ITEMS PART I, QUESTION 1A FIRST-CLASS TRAVEL: OFFICERS PAID BY SUTTER HEALTH MAY UPGRADE TO FIRST-CLASS TRAVEL FOR FLIGHTS GREATER THAN FOUR HOURS IN DURATION. TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS: OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES PAID BY SUTTER HEALTH ARE ELIGIBLE TO BRING A COMPANION ON ONE BUSINESS TRIP PER CALENDAR YEAR AND HAVE THE COST OF THE AIRFARE AND MEALS PAID FOR BY SUTTER HEALTH. THE COST IS ADDED TO EMPLOYEE'S WAGES. TAX INDEMNIFICATION: STANDARD POLICY FOR ALL SUTTER HEALTH EMPLOYEES IS THAT NON-CASH GIFTS AND AWARDS ARE GROSSED-UP FOR TAX PURPOSES. THE AMOUNT OF THE GROSS-UP IS ADDED TO THE EMPLOYEE'S WAGES.
SUPPLEMENTAL COMPENSATION INFORMATION PART I, QUESTION 3 THE CEO OF THE ORGANIZATION IS AN EMPLOYEE OF SUTTER HEALTH. 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 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.
NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN PART I, QUESTION 4B THE PURPOSE OF THE NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN IS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL DEFERRED COMPENSATION BENEFITS TO THE PARTICIPANTS, WHO ARE MEMBERS OF A SELECT GROUP OF MANAGEMENT OR HIGHLY COMPENSATED EMPLOYEES, BY PROVIDING FOR THE PAYMENT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THE SPECIFIED NUMBER OF YEARS OF SERVICE. ANNUALLY, SUTTER HEALTH MAKES A CONTRIBUTION TO EACH PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNT BASED ON 4% OF BASE PAY. THERE IS AN ADDITIONAL CONTRIBUTION FOR EXECUTIVES WHOSE PENSION ELIGIBLE EARNINGS WERE GREATER THAN THE PENSION PAY CAP IN THE PREVIOUS YEAR. THE CALCULATION IS AS FOLLOWS: - PENSION ELIGIBLE EARNINGS - LESS PENSION PAYCAP AMOUNT - TIMES A SPECIFIC % BASED ON YEARS OF SERVICE THE PENSION RESTORATION PLAN IS DESIGNED TO HELP MAXIMIZE EACH PARTICIPANT'S RETIREMENT POTENTIAL BY PROVIDING A TARGETED BENEFIT THAT, ALONG WITH EACH PARTICIPANT'S OTHER RETIREMENT INCOME, PROVIDES: - 65% OF FINAL 4-YEAR AVERAGE SALARY IF PARTICIPANT RETIRES AT AGE 65 WITH 22.5 YEARS OF SERVICE. - 50% OF FINAL 4-YEAR AVERAGE SALARY IF PARTICIPANT RETIRES AT AGE 65 WITH 15 YEARS OF SERVICE. SINCE IT IS A TARGETED BENEFIT, ANNUAL CONTRIBUTION AMOUNTS VARY BASED ON ASSUMPTIONS MADE TAKING INTO ACCOUNT EACH PARTICIPANTS' AGE, YEARS OF SERVICE, AND OTHER RETIREMENT ACCOUNT BALANCES. NAME AND AMOUNT FOR 2010: PAT BRADY $52,000 PATRICK FRY $1,127,856 THOMAS GAGEN $141,400 TERRY GLUBKA $20,500 MITCH HANNA $22,700 SARAH KREVANS $149,800 ANNE PLATT $14,400 THOMAS REAM II $7,600 RANDALL ROSS $12,500 JEFFREY SPRAGUE $36,700 JANET WAGNER $19,100 PENNY WESTFALL $15,200 LAURENCE MAAS $11,600 JOHN MESIC MD $35,200 SHELLY MCGRIFF $18,700 BARBARA NELSON $14,900 JEFFREY SZCZESNY $14,100
NON-FIXED PAYMENTS PART I, QUESTION 7 SPOT AWARDS ARE INFREQUENTLY USED TO REWARD EMPLOYEES. THERE ARE NO SPECIFIC GUIDELINES FOR THE AMOUNT OF THE SPOT AWARD BUT THE AMOUNT TENDS TO NOT EXCEED 5% OF GROSS PAY. ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN (AIP) THE PURPOSE OF THE PLAN IS TO FOCUS EXECUTIVES ON SPECIFIC, SHORTER-TERM GOALS THAT ARE CRITICAL TO THE ACHIEVEMENT OF AFFILIATE, REGION, AND SYSTEM-WIDE OBJECTIVES THAT DRIVE OVERALL ORGANIZATION PERFORMANCE. A PORTION OF THE PLAN AWARD IS DISCRETIONARY IN THAT THE SUPERVISOR MAY ADD +/- 5% TO THE AWARD PROVIDED THE TOTAL AWARD (FORMULA PORTION PLUS DISCRETIONARY) DOES NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM ESTABLISHED FOR ANY GIVEN EXECUTIVE. LONG TERM PERFORMANCE PLAN (LTPP) Sutter Health also employs long term performance plans which are designed to focus on longer term strategic objectives of the organization. Sutters long term performance plan approach is a combination of both longer term measures of organization success and key organization strategies which require the combined effort of all leadership to achieve success. Sutter uses a common fate approach in that all plan participants are measured against the same, organization wide criteria vs. individual efforts. This fosters a common purpose across leadership and a shared sense of accountability for the overall success of Sutter Health. To ensure that extraordinary efforts by individuals can be recognized and that actions of leadership are consistent with supporting Sutter Healths overall Mission, Vision, and Values, Sutters long term incentive plan approach also incorporates a CEO discretionary component. This unique feature allows the President & CEO the ability to modify individual awards within limits that have been pre-approved by the Sutter Health Compensation Committee. This includes both the reduction and increase of award amounts. Such modifications generally do not exceed +/- 20% and are employed judiciously and are reviewed by the Compensation Committee.

LAST YEAR, THE PROGRAMS FUNDED BY SUTTER MEDICAL CENTER, SACRAMENTO CONNECTED MORE THAN 150 CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE TO GROUP COUNSELING SERVICES; LINKED MORE THAN 100 HOMELESS WOMEN TO MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT; AND PROVIDED MORE THAN 600 HOMELESS CHILDREN WITH HEALTH ASSESSMENTS AND SUBSEQUENT CONNECTION TO HEALTH CARE SERVICES. SINCE 2001, THE PROGRAM HAS DISTRIBUTED MUCH-NEEDED DOLLARS TO MORE THAN 50 AGENCIES THAT HAVE IMPROVED ACCESS TO NEEDED MEDICAL, MENTAL HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES FOR SACRAMENTANS, AND ENRICHED THE LIVES OF MORE THAN 30,000 LOCAL YOUTH. BELOW ARE A FEW ORGANIZATIONS THAT SUTTER MEDICAL CENTER, SACRAMENTO HAS PARTNERED WITH OVER THE YEARS. * THE SALVATION ARMY * SACRAMENTO AREA CONGREGATIONS TOGETHER * HANDS ON SACRAMENTO * FRANCIS HOUSE OF SACRAMENTO * SACRAMENTO SELF HELP HOUSING * SACRAMENTO HEALTH CARE DECISIONS * THE EFFORT ONE EXAMPLE OF A COLLABORATIVE PROGRAM EXPANDING ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, MENTAL HEALTH, AND OTHER COMMUNITY SERVICES AND PROGRAMS IS THE INTERIM CARE PROGRAM (ICP). THE ICP IS A COLLABORATIVE OF THE HOSPITAL SYSTEMS, COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND THE COUNTY GOVERNMENT AND IS A RESPITE CARE SHELTER FOR HOMELESS PATIENTS DISCHARGED FROM HOSPITALS. THE FOUR LOCAL HOSPITALS AND THE COUNTY OF SACRAMENTO PROVIDE ON-GOING FUNDING FOR THE PROGRAM. THE SALVATION ARMY PROVIDES 18 BEDS IN A DESIGNATED WING OF THE SHELTER WHERE CLIENTS HAVE THREE MEALS A DAY AND A SAFE, CLEAN PLACE TO RECOVER FROM THEIR HOSPITALIZATIONS. THE WING IS WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE, HAS SIX ROOMS - EACH WITH THREE HOSPITAL BEDS, AND A PLACE FOR RESIDENTS TO STORE THEIR MEDICATIONS AND WOUND CARE SUPPLIES. ANOTHER COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATION, THE EFFORT, PROVIDES ON-SITE NURSING AND SOCIAL SERVICES TO SUPPORT CLIENTS IN THEIR RECUPERATION AND HELP THEM MOVE OUT OF HOMELESSNESS. THE EFFORT CASE MANAGER LINKS CLIENTS WITH MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, SUBSTANCE ABUSE RECOVERY, HOUSING WORKSHOPS AND PROVIDES DISABILITY APPLICATION ASSISTANCE. PATIENTS ARE REFERRED FROM THE HOSPITALS TO THE INTERIM CARE PROGRAM WHEN THEY ARE WELL ENOUGH TO GO HOME, BUT NEED ON-GOING REST AND FOLLOW-UP TREATMENT. PATIENTS COME FOR VARIOUS REASONS INCLUDING A WOUND THAT NEEDS TO HEAL, RECOVERY AFTER SURGERY, OR INJURY FROM AN ACCIDENT. CLIENTS CAN STAY IN THE PROGRAM UP TO SIX WEEKS, DEPENDING ON THEIR MEDICAL CONDITION. SUTTER MEDICAL CENTER, SACRAMENTO IS ALSO A PROUD, FOUNDING PARTNER OF T3 (TRIAGE, TRANSPORT AND TREATMENT) A PIONEERING PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES SERVICES TO PATIENTS WHO SEEK EMERGENCY ROOM CARE FOR NEEDS THAT ARE BEST ADDRESSED THROUGH PREVENTIVE MEASURES. THIS PROGRAM COULD BE A MODEL FOR THE KIND OF CHANGE BEING CALLED FOR IN VARIOUS HEALTH CARE REFORM PLANS. THE PROGRAM SEEKS TO PROVIDE THOSE WHO CHRONICALLY USE THE EMERGENCY ROOM FOR NON-EMERGENCY CARE WITH A WAY TO GET THE SERVICES THEY NEED FROM A PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER. MOVING THESE PATIENTS FROM THE EMERGENCY ROOM IMPROVES THE PATIENTS' HEALTH BY GETTING THEM THE APPROPRIATE CARE IN THE RIGHT SETTING, REDUCES THE WAIT FOR THOSE SEEKING CARE FOR REAL MEDICAL EMERGENCIES, AND DRAMATICALLY REDUCES COSTS TO OUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEM. SUTTER MEDICAL CENTER, SACRAMENTO IS VERY CONCERNED WITH THE GROWING CHILDHOOD OBESITY EPIDEMIC AND PARTNERS WITH PROJECT FIT AMERICA TO HELP KEEP LOCAL SCHOOL CHILDREN HEALTHY, WHILE THE CHILDREN'S CENTER PROVIDES A MEDICALLY SOUND, NUTRITIONALLY BALANCED APPROACH TO WEIGHT MANAGEMENT CUSTOMIZED FOR EACH CHILD. PATIENTS REFERRED TO THE PEDIATRIC HEALTHY LIFESTYLES PROGRAM RECEIVE A MEDICAL ASSESSMENT BEFORE BEING PUT ON ANY WEIGHT CONTROL OR EXERCISE PROGRAM. ONCE FITNESS LEVEL AND PHYSICAL CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED, A PEDIATRIC DIETITIAN WORKS INDIVIDUALLY WITH EACH CHILD TO PROVIDE A PROGRAM THAT BALANCES A CHILD'S NUTRITIONAL NEEDS WITH A SENSIBLE WEIGHT MANAGEMENT PLAN. CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE THEN INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN A SIX WEEK GROUP BEHAVIORAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM WHICH INCLUDES FOOD AND NUTRITION ACTIVITIES WITH A PEDIATRIC DIETITIAN, EXERCISE/PLAY ACTIVITIES WITH AN EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGIST AND EMOTIONAL/SOCIAL SUPPORT WITH A PEDIATRIC CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER. ONGOING FOLLOW UP SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT WITHIN THE COMMUNITY IS AVAILABLE THROUGH A MENTORING PROGRAM CO-SPONSORED BY COMMUNITY PARTNERS.

EXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS 990 PART III, LINE 4A SUTTER SENIORCARE/PACE BACKGROUND SUTTER SENIORCARE (SSC) IS A NON-PROFIT HEALTH PLAN EXCLUSIVELY FOR FRAIL OLDER ADULTS. SSC'S MODEL OF CARE IS KNOWN AS THE "PROGRAM OF ALL-INCLUSIVE CARE FOR THE ELDERLY" OR PACE. SSC IS AN AFFILIATE OF SUTTER HEALTH, A NON-PROFIT CORPORATION, WHICH ALSO INCLUDES SUTTER MEDICAL CENTER, SACRAMENTO. SSC CURRENTLY SERVES A 34-ZIP CODE AREA AND HAS TWO SITES. IN 2010 SENIORCARE SERVED OVER 256 FRAIL OLDER ADULTS (AVERAGE AGE 80). SSC WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1992 AS A PACE DEMONSTRATION AND IN 2003 WAS DESIGNATED BY THE STATE AND FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AS A PERMANENT PACE "PROVIDER." THE PACE MODEL WAS PIONEERED BY ON LOK SENIOR HEALTH SERVICES IN SAN FRANCISCO. ON LOK DEVELOPED THE FIRST PACE PROGRAM IN 1983. TODAY THERE ARE OVER 65 PACE PROGRAMS NATIONALLY AND FIVE IN CALIFORNIA. THE PACE MODEL HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED AS A HIGHLY EFFECTIVE MODEL OF COMPREHENSIVE CARE FOR THE FRAIL ELDERLY. PACE PROVIDERS HAVE BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED FOR THEIR SUCCESS IN ENHANCING THE HEALTH AND WELL BEING AND THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE FRAIL ELDERS THEY SERVE. SSC/PACE IS TRULY A UNIQUE HEALTH CARE MODEL FOR SEVERAL REASONS DESCRIBED BELOW. MISSION AND PHILOSOPHY OF SUTTER SENIORCARE/PACE THE PACE MODEL SUPPORTS THE WISHES OF FRAIL OLDER ADULTS TO STAY IN THEIR FAMILIAR HOME SURROUNDINGS THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES IF AT ALL POSSIBLE AS WELL AS TO MAINTAIN THEIR AUTONOMY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, MAXIMIZE THEIR LEVEL OF PHYSICAL, SOCIAL AND MENTAL FUNCTIONING AND ENHANCE THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE. SSC DOES THIS BY: * PROVIDING HIGH QUALITY, COMPREHENSIVE, WELL COORDINATED CARE * PROVIDING SUPPORT TO HELP PRESERVE THE COMMUNITY RESIDENCE, FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS AND LIFESTYLE OF FRAIL ELDERS ENROLLED IN THE PROGRAM (PARTICIPANTS) * MAXIMIZING COMMUNICATION AND COORDINATION BETWEEN CARE PROVIDERS TO PROACTIVELY ANTICIPATE PROBLEMS AND TAKE STEPS TO KEEP PARTICIPANTS AS HEALTHY AS POSSIBLE * PREVENTING AND REDUCING INSTITUTIONALIZATION -- HOSPITALIZATION AND SHORT AS WELL AS LONG-TERM NURSING HOME PLACEMENT -- TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT POSSIBLE. WHAT MAKES SUTTER SENIORCARE/PACE SO UNIQUE? THE FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY OF SOME OF THE KEY ELEMENTS THAT MAKE SUTTER SENIORCARE/PACE SUCH A UNIQUE AND SUCCESSFUL MODEL OF CARE FOR FRAIL ELDERS. 1. WHO WE CARE FOR: SUTTER SENIORCARE/PACE IS UNIQUE IN THAT WE CANNOT SERVE HEALTHY, ACTIVE SENIORS. UNDER LAW, WE CAN ONLY SERVE THE "FRAIL ELDERLY." IN CALIFORNIA THIS IS DEFINED AS INDIVIDUALS AGE 55 OR OLDER WHO ARE ASSESSED TO BE AS FRAIL AS INDIVIDUALS RESIDING IN NURSING HOMES -- THAT IS, OLDER ADULTS WHO NEED AN INTERMEDIATE OR SKILLED LEVEL OF CARE, BUT CAN SAFELY LIVE AT HOME WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF SUTTER SENIORCARE/PACE STAFF. SENIORS CAN ENROLL IN OUR PROGRAM ONLY AFTER A COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT, CONDUCTED BY OUR INTERDISCIPLINARY TEAM, IS REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES. OUR INTERDISCIPLINARY TEAM INCLUDES: THE PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN (PCP), CLINIC AND HOME HEALTH REGISTERED AND LICENSED VOCATIONAL NURSES, PHYSICAL AND OCCUPATIONAL THERAPISTS, SOCIAL WORKER (MSW), RECREATION THERAPIST, PHARMACIST AND DIETITIAN. ALSO, CONSISTENT WITH MOST PACE PROGRAMS, SSC SERVES PRIMARILY A LOW-INCOME, FRAIL ELDERLY POPULATION. ALL SSC PARTICIPANTS HAVE MULTIPLE, CHRONIC MEDICAL CONDITIONS AND FUNCTIONAL DISABILITIES THAT LIMIT THEIR ABILITY TO FUNCTION INDEPENDENTLY. 2. HOW WE ARE PAID: SSC/PACE IS PAID BY A SET "PER MEMBER PER MONTH" (PMPM) PAYMENT FROM BOTH MEDICARE AND MEDI-CAL. THE PMPM PAYMENT IS SOMETIMES REFERRED TO A "CAPITATED" PAYMENT. THIS MEANS THAT WE CANNOT BILL MEDICARE, MEDI-CAL OR ANY INSURANCE CARRIER FOR THE SERVICES WE PROVIDE OR PAY FOR, INCLUDING ALL HOSPITAL OR NURSING HOME COSTS THAT ARE NEEDED BY PARTICIPANTS. MOST OF OUR PARTICIPANTS ARE DUALLY ELIGIBLE WHICH MEANS THAT WE GET TWO CAPITATED PAYMENTS FOR MOST OF OUR PARTICIPANTS. ENROLLEES NOT ELIGIBLE FOR MEDI-CAL PAY A MONTHLY PAYMENT BASED ON THE PMPM PAYMENT WE RECEIVE FROM MEDI-CAL.
EXEMPT PURPOSE ACHIEVEMENTS 990 PART III, LINE 4A 3. OUR COMPREHENSIVE BENEFIT PACKAGE: SSC IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PROVIDING AND/OR PAYING FOR ALL THE CARE THAT OLDER ADULTS PARTICIPATING IN OUR PROGRAM ("PARTICIPANTS") MAY NEED. THIS INCLUDES: * ALL HOSPITAL CARE NEEDED BY PARTICIPANTS * ALL EMERGENCY CARE NEEDED * ALL NURSING HOME CARE - SHORT-TERM/TRANSITIONAL CARE AS WELL AS LONG-TERM, CUSTODIAL CARE * ALL MEDICAL CARE, INCLUDING CARE PROVIDED IN OUR CLINIC BY OUR PRIMARY CARE (EMPLOYED NOT CONTRACTED) PHYSICIANS AND SPECIALTY MEDICAL CARE PROVIDED BY CONTRACTED SPECIALISTS AS WELL AS ALL - INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT -- MEDICAL PROCEDURES * ALL NECESSARY MEDICATIONS * X-RAYS AND LABORATORY TESTS/PROCEDURES * REHABILITATIVE THERAPIES - PHYSICAL, OCCUPATIONAL AND SPEECH THERAPY-WHICH ARE PROVIDED ON SITE AT OUR ADULT DAY HEALTH CENTERS (ADHCS) * LICENSED NURSING CARE AT OUR CLINICS AND IN THE HOME * DENTAL, PODIATRY AND VISION CARE * PERSONAL CARE PROVIDED AT OUR ADHCS AND IN THE HOME * SOCIAL SERVICES AND PSYCHOLOGICAL COUNSELING * THERAPEUTIC RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES AND MEALS PROVIDED AT OUR ADHCS * TRANSPORTATION TO OUR ADHCS/CLINICS AND MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS * ALL DURABLE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT (WHEELCHAIRS, WALKERS, ETC.) * IN-HOME HOUSEKEEPING AND CHORE SERVICES (FOR EXAMPLE, LAUNDRY, MEALS PREPARATION) MOST CARE IS PROVIDED AT OUR TWO CO-LOCATED ADULT DAY HEALTH CENTERS AND CLINICS - SITE I AT 7000 FRANKLIN BOULEVARD, SUITE 1020 AND SITE II AT 1234 U STREET - OR IN THE PARTICIPANT'S HOME. 4. A PHILOSOPHY OF CARE THAT EMPHASIZES CONTINUITY OF CARE AND IS BASED ON A "TEAM" MODEL: CONTINUITY OF CARE IS BEST ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH THE PACE MODEL OF CARE FOR SEVERAL REASONS. IN THE PACE MODEL MOST OF THE KEY CARE PROVIDERS ARE LOCATED AT OUR ADHC/CLINIC - INCLUDING THE PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN (PCP) -- WHO IS AN EMPLOYEE, NOT A CONTRACTED PHYSICIAN. THIS FACILITATES COMMUNICATION BETWEEN PROVIDERS. EQUALLY IMPORTANT IS THE FACT THAT SUTTER SENIORCARE/PACE TEAM MEMBERS (PHYSICIANS, NURSES, THERAPISTS AND OTHERS) ARE VERY CLOSELY INVOLVED WITH OUR PARTICIPANTS. WE KNOW THEM AND THEIR FAMILY CAREGIVERS VERY WELL. WE ARE IN DAILY CONTACT WITH MOST OF OUR PARTICIPANTS. THIS CONTRIBUTES TO ENABLING OUR STAFF, PARTICULARLY THE PCP, TO MAKE BETTER JUDGMENTS ABOUT CARE DECISIONS. ALSO, THE PACE MODEL IS UNIQUE IN THAT IT RECOGNIZES THAT EVERYONE INVOLVED IN PROVIDING CARE AND SERVICES TO OUR PARTICIPANTS HAS SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO CONTRIBUTE TO CARE DECISIONS. AT SSC WE MAXIMIZE OPPORTUNITIES FOR COMMUNICATION BETWEEN ALL KEY MEMBERS OF OUR INTERDISCIPLINARY TEAM. TEAM MEMBERS MEET EVERY MORNING AT BOTH OF OUR SITES. THIS INCLUDES THE PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN (PCP) AND REPRESENTATIVES OF HOME CARE STAFF, CLINIC NURSING STAFF, RECREATION STAFF, REHABILITATION THERAPY STAFF, SOCIAL WORKERS, A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PERSONAL CARE ATTENDANTS WORKING IN THE ADHC, REPRESENTATIVE OF OUR DRIVERS, MEDICAL RECORDS STAFF, AND ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF. THE TEAM MODEL ENSURES THAT IMPORTANT INFORMATION IS COMMUNICATED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO KEY MEMBERS OF THE CARE DELIVERY TEAM - ESPECIALLY THE PCP. THIS IS HOW SSC IS ABLE TO REDUCE FRAGMENTATION, PROVIDE CONTINUITY OF CARE TO OUR PARTICIPANTS AND IDENTIFY PROBLEMS EARLIER. OUR DAILY TEAM MEETINGS ENABLE US TO PROACTIVELY KEEP OUR PARTICIPANTS HEALTHIER LONGER! 5. AN APPROACH TO CARE THAT RECOGNIZES THE WHOLE INDIVIDUAL AND COMPLIMENTS THE TEAM MODEL: ANOTHER PART OF THE TEAM MODEL IS A VIEW THAT RECOGNIZES THAT PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH AS WELL AS SOCIAL FACTORS PLAY AN IMPORTANT PART IN PROMOTING HEALTH AND WELL BEING OF OUR PARTICIPANTS. THIS IS WHY THE RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES THAT ARE PROVIDED AT OUR ADHCS ARE SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE PACE MODEL. THROUGH OUR ACTIVITIES PROGRAMS, WE TRY TO ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF OUR PARTICIPANTS BY PROVIDING THEM WITH OPPORTUNITIES FOR CREATIVE ACTIVITIES AS WELL AS SOCIALIZATION WITH PEERS AND STAFF. WE ALSO HAVE SOCIAL WORKERS ON SITE AT ALL TIMES AS WELL AS CONSULTATION WITH A PSYCHOLOGIST OR PSYCHIATRIST AVAILABLE IF NEEDED TO ASSIST PARTICIPANTS IN COPING WITH THEIR PERSONAL CONCERNS, PSYCHIATRIC AND BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS. 6. A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE PARTICIPANT AND THEIR FAMILY/CAREGIVER: THE SUTTER SENIORCARE/PACE MODEL CANNOT WORK UNLESS THERE IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTICIPANT, HIS/HER CAREGIVER/FAMILY AND THE PROGRAM. AS PART OF THIS, PARTICIPANTS AND/OR THEIR FAMILIES ARE ENCOURAGED TO REVIEW AND CONTRIBUTE TO THEIR CARE PLANS WHEN THE PLAN IS DEVELOPED ON ENROLLMENT AND ON A QUARTERLY BASIS WHEN IT IS REVIEWED AND, IF APPROPRIATE, REVISED. ALSO, THE TERM "PARTICIPANT" (RATHER THAN PATIENT OR CLIENT) IS USED TO IDENTIFY SSC ENROLLEES. THIS TERM - "PARTICIPANT" -- HELPS TO EMPHASIZE A MODEL OF MUTUAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR CARE AND WELL BEING. IT IS MEANT TO EMPOWER PARTICIPANTS AND HELP THEM RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANT ROLE THAT THEY PLAY IN THEIR CARE PLAN. THIS INCLUDES CONTRIBUTING TO MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT CARE AS WELL AS THE PARTICIPANT'S OWN PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR COMPLYING WITH THEIR PLAN OF CARE.

THE PREPARATION MATERIAL IS REVIEWED BY VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS INCLUDING TAX, FINANCE, OFFICE OF THE GENERAL COUNSEL, AND HUMAN RESOURCES. ADDITIONALLY, THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER SIGNS OFF ON THIS DATA BEFORE THE RETURN GOES TO THE PREPARATION STAGE. A NATIONAL ACCOUNTING FIRM PREPARES AND/OR REVIEWS THE RETURN.

PROCESS FOR DETERMINING COMPENSATION FORM 990, PART VI, QUESTION 15 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 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. IN ORDER TO ENSURE EXTERNAL COMPETITIVENESS, NATIONAL, CALIFORNIA AND LOCAL MARKET AREA COMPENSATION DATA COMPARISONS ARE REVIEWED. COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS INCLUDES: (A) BASE SALARY, (B) TOTAL CASH (BASE SALARY + ANNUAL INCENTIVE) AND (C) TOTAL REMUNERATION (BASE SALARY + ANNUAL INCENTIVE + BENEFITS AND LONG TERM INCENTIVE).
