Then, prior to filing the organization's Form 990, the organization provides a copy of the Form 990 to each Member of the organization's Board of Directors for their review, questions, and comments, which feedback is then incorporated into the filed Form 990.
MONITORING CONFLICTS
PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C
The Conflict of Interest Policy applies to Carroll Hospital Center and its direct and indirect subsidiaries and parent organization. Review of Disclosure Statements/Report to the Board. The Chief Executive Officer of the Hospital Organization, the Governance Committee and the Corporate Compliance Officer shall review the matters disclosed in the Disclosure Statements and shall submit to the Hospital Organization's Board of Directors an annual summary or spreadsheet of the disclosures and his or her recommendation for the resolution of any conflicts disclosed. In formulating recommendations, the Chief Executive Officer shall consult with appropriate officers of the Hospital Organization and counsel as necessary. The Board of Directors of the Hospital Organization, acting in the best interests of the Hospital Organization, shall have sole discretion to make all final decisions regarding conflicts of interest, other than those regarding gifts to Hospital Organization employees which shall be resolved by the appropriate supervisory executive. However, no person shall be involved in considering the existence of an actual or potential conflict of interest, in the management and oversight of a conflict relationship, or in the determination of discipline for violations of this Policy, if that person is a party or potential party to that conflict. All final decisions regarding conflicts of interest shall be reflected in a revised annual summary or spreadsheet of conflict disclosures which will be shared with each director. The Chair and Vice-Chair of the Board, and all Board committee chairs, shall have this revised summary or spreadsheet available at the time of all Board and Board committee meetings in case a matter involving a potential conflict arises. CONFLICT OF INTEREST RECUSAL PROCEDURE FOR BOARD MEETINGS Whenever a Hospital Organizations' Board or Board committee is to consider a transaction or an arrangement with another organization, entity or individual in which or with whom a person covered by this Policy has a relationship creating an actual or potential conflict of interest, the following procedures shall be employed: A.The interested person must fully disclose the actual or potential conflict of interest to the Board; B.The interested person should be asked to leave the meeting during discussion of the potential conflict and any related votes, but the interested person may make a statement or answer any questions on the matter before departing the meeting; C.If appropriate, the Board or Board committee may appoint a non-interested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement; D.To consider the proposed transaction or arrangement, the Board must: 1.find, by a majority vote of directors then in office, not counting the interested person, that the proposed transaction or arrangement is in the Hospital Organization's best interest and for the Hospital Organization's own benefit, it is fair and reasonable, and that, after reasonable investigation, the Hospital Organization cannot obtain a more advantageous transaction or arrangement using reasonable efforts; and 2.vote on the transaction or arrangement, approval requiring a majority vote of directors then in office, not counting the interested person. E.The minutes should include: (1) the name of the person disclosing the conflict of interest and a description of the conflict; (2) the Board's determination of whether there is a conflict; (3) the names and votes of persons present for the discussions and votes relating to the transaction or arrangement; and (4) the content of those discussions including the Board's determination of whether or not the transaction or arrangement is in the Hospital Organization's best interest, fair and reasonable, and the best reasonably available alternative Ongoing Duty to Disclose One's Own or Others' Conflicts of Interest. As an actual or potential conflict of interest can arise at any time, any actual or potential conflict must be disclosed promptly in writing by use of a supplemental Disclosure Statement, as soon as its existence is or should be known. If a person is in doubt about a situation, the person should consult with the Chief Executive Officer, Board Chairman or the Hospital Organization's Compliance Officer. Persons should err on the side of disclosure so that a conflict of interest assessment can be made. The potential conflict will be referred to the Governance committee for review and a response will be provided within 14 days. Noncompliance with the policy: The Organization's Board of Directors retains broad power and sole discretion under this Policy to: (1) determine the existence of actual or potential conflicts of interest; (2) subject conflict of interest relationships to appropriate oversight, management, conditions, restrictions and prohibitions; and (3) impose appropriate sanctions. A breach of this Policy can become grounds for discipline, up to and including removal from office or, for management personnel, termination of employment. It may also result in cessation of business with a vendor and in liability for damages. Grounds for discipline include, but are not limited to: A.willful failure to sign and return the Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement in accord with this Policy; B.a material misstatement or omission in the Disclosure Statement; C.willful failure to disclose an actual or potential conflict of interest at any time in accord with the requirements of this Policy; D.willful participation in a vote or decision involving a transaction which raises an undisclosed conflict of interest; or E.willful disclosure or use of confidential information regarding the affairs, business or plans of a Hospital Organization for any purpose other than in furtherance of the affairs and best interests of the Hospital Organization.
