For the uninsured patient, an assessment of income and family size is compared to the Federal Poverty Limits to determine the percentage of discount. The medically-indigent patient is offered the same level of review, with the added review of assets. Patients are expected to repay the residual debt at an amount that does not exceed 10 of the gross annual household income. After five years of payments, the remaining balance is forgiven.

    Form 990 Part VI Section B Line 11b Review of the 990 The 2012 Form 990 was reviewed by the Chair of the Audit Committee of AHCs Board of Directors and by senior management of AHC.
    Form 990 Part VI Section B Line 12c Conflict of Interest policy Officers, directors and key employees are required to complete a Conflict of Interest Statement on an annual basis. AHC Leadership reviews these Statements for compliance with the established policy. When a conflict is discovered, the governing body determines if such a conflict warrants a restriction on the capacity of the board member or key employee involved.
    Form 990 Part VI Section B Line 15a b Process for determining compensation Annually, AHC completes a competitive marketplace benchmark comparison study of compensation for its leadership positions. As part of the marketplace study, AHC utilizes the services of an international human resource consulting organization, which performs a compensation study for the CEO and his direct reports. These compensation studies compare AHCs compensation with other organizations that are of comparable revenue size and job content. These compensation studies consist of a blend of national for-profit and non-profit health care systems with revenues and job content comparable to AHCs. For those positions that are portable across different business lines ie, Finance, IT, competitive benchmark data will include non-health care employers with revenues and job content comparable to AHC. The Compensation Committee is comprised of individuals who do not have a conflict of interest. Written minutes are maintained of the committees decisions. The Compensation Committee of the AHC Board of Directors approves the compensation levels for the President and CEO, and for his direct reports. The Compensation Committee of the AHC Board of Directors has delegated the authority to the President and CEO to establish appropriate compensation levels for leadership positions that report to his direct reports.
    Form 990 Part VI Section C Line 19 Availability of documents The Articles of Incorporation for AHC are on file with the State of Wisconsin, Department of Financial Institutions. Any significant changes made to the bylaws are attached to the Form 990 in the year the change was approved. The financial statements are on file with the State of Wisconsin, Department of Safety and Professional Services. Abbreviated financial information is available at a consolidated AHC level, on the AHC web site.
    Form 990 Part VII Section A Line 1a Current officers and directors are not compensated for their services as officers and directors.
    Form 990 Part XI Line 9 Other changes in net assets or fund balances Other changes in net assets or fund balances consist of net equity transfers among affiliates and change in equity interest in affiliated foundation.
