Identifier Return Reference Explanation
Schedule C, Part II-B, Lines 1a through 1i   LOBBYING ACTIVITY BY NONELECTING PUBLIC CHARITIES The Organization is a member of the Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program and participated and benefited from lobbying activities conducted at the regional and national level for the benefit of its enrolled members and for the health care industry as a whole. As an organization generally exempt from income tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3), Health Plan has a policy prohibiting internal involvement in any political campaigns. This policy is closely monitored for compliance. During the year this Organization may have made comments or statements concerning legislation which may affect the health care industry. Health Plan may have engaged in telephone conversations and/or written letters to various federal, state, and local officials regarding matters which affected the healthcare industry as a whole. The amount of time and money involved in the activities is detailed on lines a through i. Health Plan has several employees and/or may retain a professional consultant to represent Health Plan's interests in various legislative and regulatory bodies and from time-to-time to keep informed of Federal and State legislation having an impact on Health Plan's charitable activities as an exempt Health Maintenance Organization. These individuals attempt to ensure that proposed legislation and enacted laws are compatible with the Interest of Health Plan and its members by performing the following activities: (i) Collecting, analyzing and distributing within the Organization, public and private policy recommendations regarding proposed legislation that affect the operation of Health Plan and its ability to provide quality health and medical care services to its members in a cost effective environment. (ii) Providing appropriate informational materials to legislators and to their staffs that pertain to matters of common interest in the health care community and in the not-for-profit community. (iii) Also by preparing written and oral testimony, these individuals appear at legislative hearings, monitor legislative proceedings and meet with legislators and/or their staffs regarding issues pertinent to the mission of Health Plan. Those individuals appearing at such hearings and meetings for and on behalf of Health Plan often are representing the interests of common interest groups as well as the interests of the members of Health Plan. (iv) Other employees and officers perform services by delivering speeches at various public and private functions and in serving as faculty in healthcare related educational programs throughout the community.

Identifier Return Reference Explanation
Form 990, Part III, Lines 4a - 4d   2011 COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT KAISER FOUNDATION HEALTH PLAN OF THE NORTHWEST Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of the Northwest or "Northwest Health Plan" is a tax-exempt subsidiary health plan of Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. (KFHP). Northwest Health Plan 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 2011, Northwest Health Plan served 480,386 medical members and another 195,673 dental members. Kaiser Permanente is an integrated health care delivery system that combines the provision and financing of health care services. People who elect to enroll in a Kaiser Permanente health plan receive a full range of prepaid health care services, including hospital care, professional care in hospitals and physicians' offices, x-ray and laboratory services, physical therapy, emergency, ambulance transportation, preventive services, health education, and certain prescribed drugs. More comprehensive drug coverage is also provided through a separate coverage rider. Membership in KFHP and its health plan subsidiaries is available without regard to sex, race, religion, ethnic background, sexual orientation, occupational status, or income level. Health Plan members are broadly representative of the various ages, social, and income groups within the areas served. 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 priority areas. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAM IN THE NORTHWEST REGION In 2011, Northwest Health Plan expended $51.9 million to support Community Benefit activities. A breakdown of the 2011 Community Benefit dollars attributable to Northwest Health Plan in Oregon and Washington is described 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 Northwest Health Plan in Oregon and Washington. CARE AND COVERAGE FOR LOW-INCOME PEOPLE There are roughly 49 million people in America 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 2011, Health Plan in the Northwest spent approximately $51 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 Kaiser Permanente provider. Charitable Care (Financial Assistance Program and Charitable Health Coverage) In Oregon and Washington, Northwest Health Plan provided charity care to low-income vulnerable populations through the Financial Assistance and Charitable Health Coverage Programs. In 2011, the Northwest Health Plan spent $15 million to serve under- and uninsured residents in Oregon and Washington. Financial Assistance Program This program helps pay the medical and dental expenses of patients, both member and nonmember, who meet qualifying guidelines by paying for services at facilities owned and/or operated by the Northwest Health Plan. The length of financial assistance is based on individual need. At the end of the financial assistance award period, the patient may apply for an extension. Kaiser Permanente's charity care program also includes discounted charges for uninsured patients below 400% of the federal poverty guidelines. In 2011, Northwest Health Plan spent $8.0 million and served 5,328 applicants who qualified for medical assistance or the uninsured discount. Charitable Coverage Program Charitable Health Coverage (CHC) is a unique approach to caring for low-income uninsured persons in the community. 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 Northwest Health Plan provided coverage and services valued at $7.5 million to provide subsidized coverage to more than 4,500 low-income adults and children who are not eligible for standard Medicaid or privately funded coverage. The Charitable Health Coverage Program consists of Transitions, Child Health Plan, and Washington Basic Health. - Transitions - The Transitions Program is a fully subsidized health insurance program for eligible low-income families. Eight college campuses currently participate within the Portland Metropolitan area. Students must be enrolled in a participating school, meet financial criterion, and cannot be enrolled in another private or public health care plan. Graduates are eligible for an additional six months coverage or until employer-paid coverage is activated. (not to exceed 48 months). - Child Health Plan -The Child Health Program is a fully subsidized health insurance program for eligible low-income students. 397 schools currently participate within the Multnomah Education Service District, Salem-Keizer School District and Hillsboro School District, Beaverton School District and Clackamas School District. Students must be enrolled in a participating school, meet financial criterion, and cannot be enrolled in another private or public health care plan. The participating school districts act as the administrator for the program and are responsible for outreach, eligibility determination and enrollment.
Participation in Medicaid and Other Government-Sponsored Programs   The Northwest Health Plan provided coverage and services valued at $13.4 million (in excess of reimbursement) for members and nonmembers in government-sponsored programs. Medicaid Member Programs The Northwest Health Plan participated in three Medicaid programs in Oregon and Washington. The following describe the programs and target populations. - Oregon Health Plan - Northwest Health Plan receives monthly capitated premiums from the Division of Medical Assistance Program (DMAP). Members are enrolled based on eligibility criteria. Health Plan provides services to eligible participants who reside in Clackamas, Multnomah, Polk, and Marion counties. - Healthy Options - Healthy Options is a Medicaid program for low income individuals that meet eligibility guidelines for Medicaid. It is a state program managed by the Washington State Health Care Authority (HCA). Kaiser Permanente provides services to eligible participants who reside in either Clark or Cowlitz counties. Medicaid to Nonmembers Northwest Health Plan contributed $ 0.9 million in subsidized care to Medicaid Fee-for-Service patients. When a Medicaid nonmember receives services from Kaiser Permanente providers at contract hospitals or outpatient services as a result of hospital visit follow-up, or in-patient services for Medicaid members in Oregon, these expenses are recorded as non-capitated services and are reported as professional and non-professional losses for Medicaid nonmembers. Other Government Programs The Oregon and Washington Medical Insurance Pools are insurance pools for the States of Oregon and Washington for individuals who do not have access to individual insurance due to pre-existing conditions that disqualify them from other group plans. Legislation allows the states to spread a portion of the program expenses for enrollees across the individuals who are insured wholly or in part by all health insurers, re-insurers and stop-loss carriers licensed in the state. 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). In 2011 the Northwest Health Plan provided human and in-kind support to more than 15 nonprofit organizations. 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. During 2011, Northwest Health Plan provided staff and in-kind support to more than 22 nonprofit safety net organizations. - CareOregon Community Health received a $50,000 grant to support the Oral Health Initiative in Clackamas County. - Upstream Public Health received a $50,000 grant to support water fluoridation. - Yamhill County received a $50,000 grant to support the Yamhill County Dental Health Project. OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS The Northwest Health Plan expended more than $229 thousand on community benefits activities and programs beyond the national streams of work.

The Kaiser Permanente Compliance Hotline is available to all employees and vendors to report actual or potential conflicts of interest. All calls are answered by a third party and provided to Kaiser Permanente's National Compliance office for review and appropriate action. Employees can report anonymously and without fear of retaliation. Reports of actual or potential Conflicts of Interest are generated and investigations are conducted as required and information is tracked and trended to determine if additional guidance is required to avoid conflicts of interest. Compliance Hotline Reports are provided for review and action to the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan/ Hospitals Boards of Directors annually. 2. The Chief Compliance Officer and the VP of Internal Audit Services annually review the directors', officers', key employees', and executives' Annual Conflicts of Interest Questionnaire disclosures and provide direction on any investigations required. Investigations are documented, tracked and trended to determine if additional controls or education is required; In addition, Conflicts of Interest Questionnaire Reports are provided for review and action to the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan/ Hospitals Boards of Directors annually; and 3. Annually, as a component of the external audit, KPMG reviews the Annual Conflicts of Interest Questionnaires completed by Directors, Officers, Key Employees, and Executives, and actions taken as a result of the disclosures. The results of the annual audit, including any findings in this area are presented to the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan/ Hospitals Audit and Compliance Committee. Regularly and Consistently Enforces Compliance with the Conflicts of Interest Policy To ensure consistency in the enforcement of the policy Kaiser Permanente uses the following steps as a general guideline: A. Represented employees are subject to any corrective/disciplinary action provisions described in specific regional/national collective bargaining agreements and/or organizational policies and practices. B. Kaiser Permanente notifies employees of the National Human Resources Policy No. 14. Corrective/Disciplinary Action Policy during new employee orientation and in annual compliance training. C. In the event that it is necessary to discipline any employee because of, but not limited to, failure to comply with applicable legal/regulatory requirements, Kaiser Permanente policies and procedures, or the Principles of Responsibility, or for unsatisfactory performance or misconduct, coaching/counseling and/or corrective/disciplinary action may include, but is not limited to: (I) Oral discussion and/or warning by the employee's immediate supervisor or higher level manager to correct the problem (II) Written notice, with or without final warning (III) Paid or unpaid suspension, with or without final warning (IV) Termination of employment
Form 990, Part VI, Question 15a/b   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.
