| FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 15A/B | COMPENSATION DETERMINATION | The executive compensation program is designed to recruit, retain and motivate qualified senior management personnel. Senior management personnel have a significant impact on the strategic and policy direction and results of the organization. Therefore, the executive compensation program is, to a significant degree, performance-based. The compensation program is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors which evaluates and approves, prior to payment, all programs and payments to CEO, Executive Director and top management officials (executives). Base pay for executive positions is established at a level comparable to the relevant market. In addition, other components of the compensation program bear 'at-risk' features designed to focus on strategically important performance goals and to assist in attracting and retaining top performers. The executive compensation program is targeted at the median of the comparable external market in which the organization competes for executive leadership. Evaluation of comparable pay data is performed by an Independent Compensation, Benefit & Human Resource Consulting firm. The compensation program focuses on objectives in the areas of quality of member care and service, financial soundness, and the community and social mission of the organization. |

| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A-D | 2010 COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT KAISER FOUNDATION HEALTH PLAN OF GEORGIA, INC. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Georgia, Inc. or "Georgia Health Plan" is a tax-exempt subsidiary health plan of Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. (KFHP). Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Georgia as well as Kaiser Foundation Hospitals (KFH) are nonprofit corporations that are part of the integrated health care delivery system known as the Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program or "Kaiser Permanente." In 2010, Georgia Health Plan served 222,074 members and has 2,285 full-time administrative, clerical and technical employees. Georgia Health Plan provides and arranges comprehensive health care services for members on a predominantly prepaid basis. Health Plan fulfills its contractual obligations to group and individual members by contracting with KFH and a Permanente Medical Group to provide the required health care services. Membership in KFHP and its health plan subsidiaries is available without regard to sex, race, religion, ethnic background, sexual orientation, and occupational status or income level. Health Plan members are broadly representative of the various ages, social and income groups within the areas it serves. Once enrolled, a member is free to maintain membership regardless of age, health status or employment. | |
| . | KAISER PERMANENTE'S COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY Kaiser Permanente believes its Direct Community Benefit Investment (DCBI), is fundamental to being a nonprofit organization. It embodies the organization's commitment to improve the health of communities beyond services to Health Plan members. It is more than traditional corporate citizenship or corporate philanthropy. It is an intentional, planned, budgeted, measurable, accountable creation for better health in our communities. It is done in collaboration with, not in isolation from, the community. DCBI serves to fulfill Kaiser Permanente's social purpose, justify its tax-exempt status, and differentiate it from other health care organizations. This tradition of community benefit dates from the earliest days of the Program, when charitable care to non-employees, and later, nonmembers, was initiated. That heritage has continued through the years in Kaiser Permanente's early participation in publicly financed programs such as Medicaid and Medicare, establishment of residency training and medical research programs, and later, in the development of the Educational Theatre Programs, Safety Net Partnerships, Community Health Initiatives and Charitable Health Coverage Programs. In 2007, the KFHP/H Board of Directors refined the focus of the organization's Community Benefit Program and established the following four priority areas which have come to be known as "streams of work": - Care and Coverage for Low-Income People - Creates and supports programs that lower the financial barriers for the under- and uninsured. - Community Health Initiatives - Designs, delivers, and sustains long-term programs that engage communities in work to improve conditions in their neighborhoods. - Safety Net Partnerships - Builds partnerships with community clinics, local health departments, and public hospitals. Provides funding, technical assistance, dissemination of care management and quality improvements technology to help improve care and expand treatment capacity for vulnerable populations. - Developing and Disseminating Knowledge - Improves health care by sharing our knowledge- educating practitioners, advancing research, empowering consumers and informing policymakers about the evidence base for care and health. The Board elaborated that at least 75% of total community benefit funding will be directed to program priorities within the four streams of work and the remaining 25% of funding will be directed by local regions to respond to local community benefit needs and opportunities that may or may not be within the four key focus areas. | |
| . | THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAM IN THE GEORGIA REGION In 2010, Georgia Health Plan expended $29.4 million to support community benefit activities. A breakdown of the 2010 Community Benefit dollars attributable to the Georgia Health Plan is included in Attachment A. The following identifies many of the signature community benefit programs and services grouped according to the national streams of work funded by Georgia Health Plan. CARE AND COVERAGE FOR LOW-INCOME PEOPLE There are roughly 46 million Americans without access to health care or coverage. Uninsured, low-income individuals and families who are not eligible for public programs often have to rely on traditional charity care. Frequently, individuals in this situation may wait to seek medical care until their conditions become critical, and end up in hospital emergency rooms for treatment of conditions that are preventable or easily treated in earlier stages. In 2010, the Georgia Health Plan expended $17.9 million to address the financing and delivery of health care for populations vulnerable due to socio-economic status, illness, ethnicity, age, or other factors. Program beneficiaries (under- and uninsured) received free or discounted care in a Kaiser Permanente facility or by a Permanente provider. Charitable Care (Medical Financial Assistance and Charitable Health Coverage Programs) In the Georgia Region, Health Plan provides charity care to low-income vulnerable populations through the Medical Financial Assistance and Charitable Coverage Program. In 2010, the Georgia Health Plan spent approximately $15.3 million on under- and uninsured residents. - Medical Financial Assistance Program The Georgia Health Plan's Medical Financial Assistance Program provides temporary financial assistance and/or medically necessary services, medications or supplies to patients with a demonstrated financial need. Patients must receive health care services at a Kaiser Permanente facility and/or from a Kaiser Permanente provider. Kaiser Permanente's charity care program also includes discounted charges for uninsured patients below 400% federal poverty guidelines and aligned contracted collection agency practices with Kaiser Permanente social values. In 2010, this program assisted 1,122 patients. - Charitable Health Coverage Program Charitable Health Coverage (CHC) is our unique approach to caring for low-income uninsured persons in our communities. Participants receive a regular Kaiser Permanente membership card and access to the full range of our service and providers-a much better alternative to a brief and costly emergency room visit or hospitalization. This allows us to invest in the longer term health of patients and the community. Since inception in the early 1980s, CHC programs have made a real difference in the lives of persons who might otherwise have no other source of care. The Kaiser Permanente Bridge Program enrolls and subsidizes for up to two years, 95% of the premium for income-eligible individuals who do not have access to any other form of health insurance. This program partners with community agencies to identify eligible clients whose income falls at or below 300% of the federal poverty guidelines. By year-end 2010, the Georgia Health Plan had 2,096 individuals in the Kaiser Permanente Bridge Program. | |
| . | COMMUNITY HEALTH INITIATIVES As an innovator in health, Kaiser Permanente designs, delivers, and sustains long-term programs that engage communities in work to improve conditions in their neighborhoods, workplaces, and schools to support good health, particularly Healthy Eating, Active Living (HEAL). The Georgia Health Plan spent approximately $4.4 million on community health initiatives during 2010. Community Health Education and Prevention Programs The Georgia Health Plan offered a variety of health education classes, events, and programs for the general public. During 2010, the Health Education Department organized numerous health fairs and screenings at Health Plan medical offices which were open to the general public. Expenditures in this category exclude program cost for health education programs targeting or restricted to Health Plan members. The following is an example of a community partnership aimed at promoting health and well being. - The Georgia Health Plan is the sponsor of the Green Market, weekly farmers' market (May-December) offering a variety of organic fruits, vegetables, fresh cut flowers, baked goods as well as healthy cooking demonstrations and fitness classes. In 2010, 67,000 people attended the Green Market. Grants and Donations for Community Health Initiatives The Georgia Health Plan contributed $4.4 million to 63 nonprofit organizations to support a variety of community health initiatives. Following are examples of two programs funded in 2010: - The Chattahoochee Nature Center (CNC) transformed an abandoned soccer field into a community garden with funding from a $42,809 Kaiser Permanente grant. The garden yields 24,000 pounds of fresh produce annually, and benefits clients of another KPGA grantee, the nearby North Fulton Community Charities, a nonprofit that provides food, clothing and short-term emergency assistance to low-income families. CNC also provides educational workshops to the families on healthy eating and active living. The partnership increases access to seasonal fresh produce, while strengthening community networks and increasing healthy living. - KPGA is addressing the region's childhood obesity challenge (almost 38% of children younger than 17 are obese) through a project implemented by the YMCA of Metropolitan Atlanta. The initiative will test and put into practice techniques that minimize health risks related to overweight/obesity. The goal is to improve health outcomes for youth (ages 2 to 16) through programs that promote healthy eating, physical activity and behavior change that establish lifelong habits of health and wellness. The contribution supported the study's first phase, which focuses on 3 to 5 year olds, and will fund curriculum development and strategy implementation to prevent and address obesity in YMCA pre-school Head Start students. | |
| . | SAFETY NET PARTNERSHIPS Through funding, technical assistance, public policy advocacy, training and volunteering, dissemination of care-management and quality improvement technologies, Kaiser Permanente helps these vital health care providers improve care and expand treatment capacity for the communities and vulnerable people they serve. Grants and Donations for Safety Net Partnerships The Georgia Health Plan contributed $1.5 million to 13 organizations that deliver medical or dental care services to uninsured people in community settings, primarily safety net clinics in Georgia. Following are two community organizations supported by these grants in 2010: - Nationally, Georgia is ranked 36th in the percent of its population that has access to primary care. A Kaiser Permanente Georgia grant to the United Way of Metropolitan Atlanta created the Primary Care Access program. The initiative expands access to care in five metro Atlanta counties. The program helps people access primary care and addresses the 300% increase in patients seeking care that community clinics have recently experienced. Counties were selected based on residents' health status, income levels, and the capacity of community-based health care organizations (where they existed). Because of the project, hundreds of patients who have no other options for care will receive services through new access points for primary care. - Community clinics are a vital part of the safety net providing healthcare to thousands of under- and uninsured patients each year. Hebron Community Health Center is such a facility. With a $10,000 Kaiser Permanente Georgia grant, the organization implemented a diabetes health education and prescription program called "Being Put to the Test." Diabetes is a leading cause of death among Georgians, and is linked to health disparities in the Kaiser Permanente service area. The grant makes possible health care for 150 diabetic patients who might not otherwise receive appropriate care. By providing patient education, screening, monitoring, and medication Hebron is improving its patients' health, but is also freeing hospital emergency rooms to treat patients with urgent health crises. | |
| . | EVELOPING AND DISSEMINATING KNOWLEDGE Kaiser Permanente aims to improve health by sharing its knowledge, educating practitioners, advancing research, empowering consumers, and informing policymakers about the evidence base for care and health. The Georgia Health Plan spent $4.2 million to support programs and services for the development and dissemination of knowledge and provided grants and donations to nonprofit organizations. Clinical and Health Services Research The Georgia Health Plan's Center for Health Research department partners with research programs at Emory University, Morehouse School of Medicine, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Georgia Department of Human Resources, Division of Public Health. During 2010, the Center for Health Research participated in 108 studies and published results in 22 peer-reviewed publications. The following are two examples of studies conducted in 2010: - Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Hughes Spalding is the only pediatric safety net hospital in metro Atlanta. Through a contribution to the hospital - whose patients are 98% minority, 80% Medicaid enrolled, and 11% uninsured - Kaiser Permanente is ensuring that low-income, underserved children are cared for with appropriate medical care and equipment. Low-income children had previously been served in a sub-standard, outdated facility that lacked up-to-date equipment and systems. The project will increase the number of Charity Care-qualified children served and improve access to care. - Georgia is ranked 5th highest in the country for the number of uninsured residents. This lack of care - among other factors - often contributes to poor health among residents. Community clinics are a vital part of the safety net, providing healthcare to thousands of under- and uninsured patients each year. A $95,000 Kaiser Permanente grant allowed the Hands of Hope Clinic to increase its capacity and serve over 1800 medical and almost 100 dental patients. The Clinic was able to maintain its medical and dental provider staff, increase volunteer medical, dental and clerical staff; and increase the clinic's hours in order to serve more patients. Educational Theatre Programs (ETP) The Georgia Health Plan offered free, award-winning health education plays for youth and adults. Kaiser Permanente's Educational Theatre Programs offers a unique series of dynamic theatre programs with compelling health messages to reach children, teens and adults. These national award-winning plays promote individual responsibility for one's health, instill positive attitudes about healthy lifestyle choices and demonstrate the benefits of positive action. Topics addressed in the performances range from AIDS awareness and stress management to grief counseling and health and wellness messages, related to nutrition and asthma education. All programs are offered free of charge as a community benefit of Kaiser Permanente. In 2010, the program reached approximately 86,675 children and adults through 1,254 programs. Training and Education of Health Care Professionals In 2010, the Georgia Health Plan spent $214,945 to support the education and training of health care professionals. | |
| . | Grants and Donations for Knowledge Dissemination The Georgia Health Plan donated $538,133 in charitable contributions to 6 nonprofit organizations for the dissemination of evidence-based studies which informed the community about health care public policy and educational opportunities for individuals seeking a career as a health care professional. Following is an example of one of the programs supported in 2010. - Voices for Georgia's Children provides research-based information that helps policymakers and the state's citizens make informed decisions about policies affecting children. Kaiser Permanente Georgia granted the organization $64,633 to use education and advocacy to support enrolling children in health insurance programs. The organization is partnering with Georgia's Department of Community Health and other community-based organizations to implement policy and practice changes to improve the state's enrollment systems for Medicaid and PeachCare for Kids (the state's child health insurance program). - In addition, the Georgia Health Plan partners with colleges and universities to address the shortage of healthcare workers in our state. In 2010, Clayton State University, Georgia Perimeter College, Georgia State University, Kennesaw State University, Mercer University, and the Morehouse School of Medicine received grants totaling $410,000, and awarded scholarships to 28 nursing, pharmacy and medical students. | |
| . | OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFIT The Georgia Health Plan spent $1.4 million on other community benefit activities and programs beyond the national streams of work. Self-Sufficiency Programs The Georgia Health Plan spent $99,113 to support five INROADS interns in 2010. The INROADS program is aimed at improving education and job skills or providing employment opportunities for targeted populations. INROADS is an organization focused on developing minority college students for leadership roles in corporations and in the community. Student interns typically work two to five summers with the organization with the goal of permanent placement upon graduation from college. Community Giving Campaign The Georgia Region's Community Giving Campaign is the employee's charitable giving program. Employees contribute to United Way and Earthshare through payroll deductions, direct gifts and special event fundraising. The amount reported is to cover administrative expenses for operating the campaign. Other Community Grants and Donations The Georgia Health Plan contributed $114,000 to four nonprofit community organizations in support of a variety of other programs and services for vulnerable populations. Following are highlights of one of the programs funded: - The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change provides education about Dr. King's philosophy and continues his work research, education and training. Each year, the Center hosts the Salute to Greatness Awards Dinner to honors recipients of the Salute to Greatness Award, the Center's highest recognition afforded individuals and institutions that embody the principles espoused by Dr. King. Kaiser Permanente Georgia joined with other local and national companies to support the King Center, and award recipients who help improve quality of life through their efforts. Regional Community Benefit Operations The Georgia Health Plan has a Community Benefit Department with nine employees to support regional community benefit programs and coordinate CB initiatives including the Educational Theatre Programs. In addition, there are many other Health Plan personnel who collaborate to help manage community benefit programs like Charity Care, Charitable Health Coverage. | |
