Supplemental Information
Provide the information, explanation, or descriptions required for Part I, lines 1a, 1b, 3, 4a, 4b, 4c, 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7, and 8, and for Part II.
Also complete this part for any additional information.
Return Reference Explanation
Part I, Lines 4a-b Line 4a: Paolo Zambito received a severance payment in the amount of $125,573. Line 4b: Warner Thomas, President and Chief Executive Officer; Michael Hulefeld, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer; Scott Posecai, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; and Bobby Brannon, Executive Vice President and Treasurer participate in a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) which is part of the terms and conditions of their employment contracts with Ochsner Health System and Ochsner Clinic Foundation and is based on a targeted replacement of a set percentage of their salary at age 65. The SERP is classified as a Supplemental Non-Qualified Retirement Plan. This benefit is funded in a Trust Account with Capital One Bank. The increase in actuarial value for Mr. Hulefeld was $943,325. None of the other participants had increases in actuarial value or distributions. Joseph Bisordi, M.D., Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer, participates in a Non-Qualified supplemental plan which is part of the terms and conditions of his employment contract with Ochsner Health System. The retirement calculation is a defined amount as a percent of base pay, calculated annually, and is earned in two vesting periods, one on March 31, 2013, age 63, and one following age 67 on September 18, 2016. This benefit is funded in a Trust Account with Capital One Bank. Mr. Bisordi received a distribution of $480,546.60. The increase in actuarial value was $86,100. Robert Wolterman, CEO OMC-Jeff Hwy with Ochsner Clinic Foundation participated in a 457(f) non-qualified, unfunded, deferred compensation plan, which was adopted in 2013. The Plan allows for discretionary initial contributions, subject to a two-year vesting requirement; annual fixed contributions based on a percent of base pay and subject to a three-year vesting requirement; and annual discretionary contributions based on a percent of base pay or a flat-dollar amount and subject to a three-year vesting requirement. None of the deferred amounts have vested in 2013 and no participants received distributions in 2013.
Part I, Line 6 The Physician and Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Ochsner Health System, a related 501(c)(3) organization and sole member of Ochsner Community Hospitals, reviews and approves all officer executive incentive plans, which include those for the Officers: the President & CEO, COO, CFO, Treasurer, Regional Medical Directors, and Executive Vice Presidents. All the incentive payouts are audited by the Board Internal Audit Committee. For the 2012 incentive plan, which would have been paid in 2013, the organization did not meet annual financial targets, and therefore the compensation committee did not approve the payment of the Annual Incentive Plan. Annually, the officers of Ochsner Health System review and approve executive incentive plans for the executive and physician leadership group. The plans are developed similar to the officer incentive plans with weighted components, including a subjective metric. The subjective metric is assigned by the officer responsible for the executive or physician leader as their direct report and the CEO approves all bonuses for this group of management. All bonus amounts are provided in Schedule J Part II in Column B(ii).
Part I, Line 7 Subjective components of incentive plans are described in description of Part I, Line 6. In addition, the following non-fixed payments were made in 2013, and were included in Schedule J Part II in Column B(ii): achievement award, primary care new patient incentive plan, and retention bonus.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7b The Articles and Bylaws specify the following actions that require the affirmative vote or written consent of the Member: (1) Election of Directors other than the Chief Executive Officer (2) Amendment to the articles of incorporation of the Corporation (3) Corporate actions (4) Removal and replacement of any Director other than the Chief Executive Officer (5) Preparation or adherence to any capital or operating budget (6) Any expense, debt, or capital expenditure that exceeds the amount budgeted (7) Any action that is anticipated to reduce revenues below the amount budgeted (8) Any purchase or sale of any real property or encumbering any such property to secure a debt, if such action was not included in the budget (9) Guaranteeing the debt or obligation of any other person or entity (10) Beginning the practice of a health care service or specialty not previously engaged in by the Corporation if it was not included in the budget.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11 One or more members of senior management review the return. The return is also reviewed by Ernst & Young, LLP, the company's tax advisors. The Audit and Oversight Committee, which is comprised of independent directors, is then provided the return prior to the filing date and given the opportunity to review and discuss the return with management/staff. The meeting to review the 2013 return was held on October 27, 2014. A copy of the return is then provided to each member of the Board of Directors electronically and comments are solicited from the entire Board.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Officers, directors, trustees, and key employees are required to complete a conflict of interest disclosure form annually, within 40 days of becoming an employee, or if a current employee has a change in business circumstances not previously disclosed. The Director of Internal Audit reviews disclosures and determines whether action is necessary or if the disclosure needs to be reviewed by the Conflict of Interest Steering Committee. Ochsner Health System requires annual certification that the relationships disclosed during a preceding calendar year are complete and accurate. In addition, employees that do not fall within the scope of the Conflict of Interest Disclosure policy annually certify through the Annual Employee Evaluation process their compliance with the Conflict of Interest policy.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 All CEO and officer compensation and benefits arrangements, including salary and bonus incentive plans, are reviewed and approved by the Executive and Senior Physician Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (Compensation Committee)of Ochsner Health System. No substantive change to the compensation or benefits packages is made until Committee approval is granted in accordance with Intermediate Sanctions guidelines. The Compensation Committee is without conflicts of interest and uses an independent external consultant. Appropriate data is applied to determine the comparability of fair market value pay and all actions are appropriately documented. In order to meet the requirements of the IRS Intermediate Sanctions regulations, the Compensation Committee identified the "disqualified individuals" that are in a position to exercise substantial influence over the company's operations. These individuals are the members of the Executive Officers Committee (EOC), Regional Medical Directors, physician board members and Section Heads for key departments. For disqualified individuals, the compensation review also includes the cost of benefits such as the company portion of medical and dental benefits, malpractice insurance, payments for 401K matching and pension payments. A different review process is used for Physicians. Annually, the Corporate Integrity department reviews the salary of each employed physician. This review includes a comparison of physician salaries against national survey data for their specialty. Three surveys are used for the review: McGladrey & Pullen, the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) and American Medical Group Association (AMGA). The Physician Compensation department provides salary data for each physician including base salary, stipends, on-call pay, etc. If it is determined that a physician's compensation is higher than the survey data, the total work Relative Value Units (RVUs) are compared to the survey data. This review is performed to ensure their pay is comparable to the work performed. Comparable benefit survey data is obtained periodically from McGladrey & Pullen. Compensation for other non-physician key employees is reviewed by senior executives who take market value research into consideration when determining compensation levels.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 All governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available upon written request to the Corporate Integrity Department.
Part VI, Section B, 16b JOINT VENTURE PROCESS When the organization evaluates its participation in a joint venture, the transactions are handled carefully to ensure that the organization's tax-exempt status is intact with regard to the arrangement. The operations of the joint venture are carefully reviewed by management and legal counsel, and the transaction is not entered into unless it is a reflection of the organization's tax-exempt purpose. A clause is inserted into the joint venture agreement that the operations of the joint venture must be performed in a manner that will not jeopardize the organization's tax-exempt status.
Part VI, Section A, 1b NUMBER OF BOARD MEMBERS WHO ARE INDEPENDENT The Articles of Incorporation provide that no action of the Board may be resolved unless a majority of the independent directors present approve the matter. Thus, even in situations where there is not an absolute majority of independent directors in office, those independent directors in office control Ochsner Community Hospitals' activities.
Part VII, Section A, 1a ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION EXPLANATION COMPENSATION FROM RELATED ORGANIZATIONS Many of the individuals listed in Part VII and Schedule J hold positions with related 501(c)(3) organizations.

Other members of the Ochsner network are charged a portion of these amounts. The amount of time spent by each officer as "average hours per week devoted to position" on the Form 990 of the organization that directly employs the individual consists primarily of their role as an Officer of the integrated health system. Additional time spent on boards, committees and through fulfilling other responsibilities as Officer of the Ochsner organizations is shown on each Form 990. The amount of time on this return is shown as a nominal amount, but in reality the time is more evenly distributed across all entities.
