EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
PART VI, SECTION B - POLICIES, LINE 11
All North Shore-LIJ Health System Inc. and affiliated entities prepare the annual Return of Organization Exempt Form Income Tax (Form 990) with input from various departments including Corporate Compliance, Finance, Human Resources, and Legal. Before filing the returns, the documents are electronically made available for review to members of the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee, which is a committee made up of members from the Board of Trustees, may exercise all of the authority of the Board of Trustees except as such authority is limited by applicable law and except to the extent, if any, that such authority would be inconsistent with any provision of these By-laws or is limited by any resolution to such effect adopted by the Board of Trustees.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
PART VI, SECTION B - POLICIES, LINE 12C
The North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System ("Health System") has several control mechanisms to mitigate conflicts of interest. The Health System's Code of Ethical Conduct contains a detailed section educating individuals about how to avoid potential conflicts of interest. Specifically, our Code of Ethical Conduct requires individuals to conduct Health System business in a manner that places the interests of the Health System ahead of their personal interests. In addition, the Health System has a Conflicts of Interest Policy Statement further elaborating upon individuals' disclosure and recusal obligations. Individuals that are in a position to influence the business or other decisions of the Health System are required to filled out a conflicts of interest disclosure form on a regular basis. The Corporate Compliance Office reviews all disclosures of possible conflicts, including matters disclosed in any conflicts of interest disclosure report and takes any actions deemed required or appropriate to manage or resolve any actual or potential conflicts of interest. In appropriate cases these disclosures and responsive actions will be reported to the Health System's Audit and Corporate Compliance Committee and other applicable committees. In addition, the Health System provides training to individuals on an annual basis regarding conflicts of interest and other compliance related topics. If an individual violates the Code of Ethical Conduct or any related policy such as the Conflicts of Interest Policy Statement, appropriate disciplinary action is taken based upon the facts and circumstances of the situation.
OFFICERS COMPENSATION
PART VI, SECTION B - POLICIES, LINE 15
The by-laws of the Health System create a committee of the Board with full powers of the Board to review and approve the compensation of officers and other key employees. The committee consists of approximately 6 trustees who have no connection to the System except as trustees and they have no conflicts as to matters they consider. The committee meets several times a year as needed but always meets in November/December to review and determine officer and key employee compensation for the following year. For purposes of their review the committee considers the recommendations of the CEO for all persons other than the CEO. For purposes of the review each year the committee receives information from an outside independent compensation consultant as to compensation for comparable positions in comparable organizations and makes its decisions on this basis, with the overall objective of paying base salary at the 50th percentile. Any contracts or other compensation for officers or key employees are separately considered and normally only approved after receipt of a "fairness opinion" from the independent consultant. .All the work and process of the committee is structured to fall within the applicable safe harbor regulations.
