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 RATIO UTILIZING WORKSHEET 2 METHODOLOGY.
PART II   COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES - PHYSICAL IMPROVEMENTS/HOUSING - COMMUNITY SUPPORT - COALITION BUILDING - WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT - HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ADVOCACY
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 $33,169,252.
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.

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: DAVID P BENN $144,700 PATRICK FRY $1,127,856 JOE HIRT $17,600 LAWRENCE DEMPSEY $14,700 PATRICK ANDERSON $8,500 JAMES E CONFORTI $30,000 SUSAN C DONKER $8,000 RICHARD LISZEWSKI $11,200 STEPHEN MITCHELL $19,000 SANDRA K PROCTOR $10,700 DAVID M THOMPSON $17,400 ERIC DALTON $7,000
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.

DESCRIBE THE PROCESS USED BY MGMT &/OR GOVERNING BODY TO REVIEW FORM 990 FORM 990, PART VI, QUESTION 11A SUTTER HEALTH HAS A CENTRALIZED TAX DEPARTMENT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE FORM 990. ANNUALLY THE TAX DEPARTMENT PROVIDES TRAINING AND EDUCATION TO AFFILIATE PERSONNEL WHO ASSIST THE TAX DEPARTMENT IN COLLECTING AND REVIEWING DATA TO BE REPORTED ON THE FORM 990. 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. A COMPLETED RETURN IS THEN REVIEWED BY THE TAX DEPARTMENT AND THE AFFILIATE WITH THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER GIVING HIS/HER APPROVAL BEFORE THE RETURN IS FILED.
DESCRIPTION OF PROCESS TO MONITOR TRASACTIONS FOR CONFLICTS OF INTEREST FORM 990, PART VI, QUESTION 12 EACH INDIVIDUAL BOARD MEMBER AND OFFICER HAS TO SIGN AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FORM THAT THEY HAVE READ THE POLICY. ANNUALLY A DISCLOSURE STATEMENT IS COMPLETED BY ALL OFFICERS AND BOARD MEMBERS. ON THIS STATEMENT THE INDIVIDUAL WILL LIST A WIDE RANGE OF INFORMATION WHICH INCLUDES BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS, EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIPS, PROPERTY INTERESTS, AND THOSE OF RELATED PARTIES. THE CEO AND BOARD CHAIR WILL REVIEW THE STATEMENTS AND MONITOR SITUATIONS THAT MAY POSE A POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST. THE CEO AND BOARD CHAIR MAY CONSULT WITH THE OFFICE OF THE GENERAL COUNSEL AS NECESSARY. IF THERE IS A POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST RELATED TO A PARTICULAR TRANSACTION, THE INTERESTED TRUSTEE MUST DISCLOSE THE EXISTENCE AND NATURE OF THE RELATIONSHIP. THE BOARD CHAIR MAY APPOINT A DISINTERESTED PERSON OR COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE THE CONFLICT. UNTIL THE POTENTIAL CONFLICT IS RESOLVED, THE BOARD CHAIR MAY REQUEST THE TRUSTEE TO NOT PARTICIPATE DURING RELATED PRESENTATIONS AND DISCUSSIONS. IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES INVOLVING AN ACTUAL CONFLICT, THE INTERESTED TRUSTEE SHALL REFRAIN FROM VOTING ON ANY MATTER RELATED TO THE TRANSACTION.
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). THIS ANALYSIS INCLUDES COMPARABLE ORGANIZATIONS AND GEOGRAPHIC CONSIDERATIONS. FOR THE MOST SENIOR EXECUTIVE POSITIONS, NATIONAL COMPARISONS FOR ORGANIZATIONS SIMILAR IN SIZE, SCOPE AND COMPLEXITY AS SUTTER HEALTH ARE MOST APPROPRIATE SINCE IT IS A NATIONAL MARKETPLACE IN WHICH SUTTER COMPETES FOR EXECUTIVE TALENT. ON THE OTHER HAND, BECAUSE CALIFORNIA'S UNDERLYING COMPENSATION STRUCTURE IS HIGHER THAN NATIONAL DATA (ESPECIALLY IN THE BAY AREA), REGIONAL PAY COMPARISONS AND ADJUSTMENTS ARE MADE. ALL OFFICERS OF THE ORGANIZATION (I.E., CEO, CFO, COO) UNDERGO A REVIEW AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE APPROVAL ANNUALLY. KEY EMPLOYEES AND OTHER EXECUTIVES OF SUTTER HEALTH WHO ARE CONSIDERED DISQUALIFIED PERSONS FOR FORM 990 REPORTING PURPOSES ARE HANDLED IN THE SAME MANNER.
