|---|---|
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 2: Description of Business or Family Relationship of Officers, Directors, Et | All of the hospital's governing board members received stipends for board of director services provided. Three were compensated for other services as well as Board Service: Doug Wright was compensated as the Medical Director of Wound Care and Chief of Medical Staff (Stipend $14,400; Wound Care $23,888; Ch of Med Staff $3,000), Becky Thompson was compensated as a board member and her company was paid for rental of office space (Stipend $14,400 and Rent $56,628), and Thomas Paxman was compensated for Pinetop Clinic office space usage and overhead (Stipend $14,900 and Office Space $240,726). After consideration of the circumstances of each of the following business situations described involving board members: Thomas Paxman, Becky Thompson and Doug Wright were deemed to have compromised independence as voting members. Board member Thomas Paxman is a 3% physician investor in White Mountain Imaging: Doug Wright is also a small investor (10%), the same company that Summit holds 51% interest in. Paxman; Wright; and Summit would all have to have an interest in the joint venture of greater than 10% in order for it to be reportable on Schedule L. In addition, Thomas Paxman is paid by Summit via his company Pinetop Medical for use of office space and overhead at the Pinetop Clinic in the amount of $240,726 for 2013. This transaction was over the $100K threshold, and accordingly was reported on Schedule L. Doug Wright is employed by White Mountain ER Physicians, and is a 20% partner. This organization is one of Summit's highest paid Independent Contractors. The transactions between ER Physician Group and the hospital were valued in excess of $100,000, and were reported on Schedule L.Doug Wright is also compensated from Summit as the Medical Director of Wound Care: and Chief of Medical Staff. Compensation for 2013 was $23,888 for Wound Care and $3,000 as chief of Medical Staff. Aggregate compensation was under the $100K reporting threshold for Schedule L, but was listed as compensation received in addition to Board Stipends on the Form 990, Part VII. Becky Thompson has a controlling ownership interest in Old Bear Properties. Summit rented office space on this property and paid this organization $56,628 in 2013 - under the $100k threshold for reporting on Schedule L, but did compromise her independence as a voting Board member. Becky Thompson is also related to a physcian that Summit Healthcare employs. Dr. Mulder is her cousin-in-law, and was paid $305,595 during the year 2013. This transaction was reported on Schedule L. Becky Thompson, Thomas Paxman, and an employed physician have a joint business interest in a Call Group. Paxman and Thompson are Board Members, and Smithson is an employed physician. No money has been reported to have been exchanged in this arrangement. John Corder is a Governing Board Member who owns a 33% share of an outside company that provides limited security services to Summit Healthcare. Total compensation paid by the hospital to that company was $7,360. Since it was less than $10,000, it was not deemed reportable on schedule L. Paul Watson is the Town Manager of Snowflake, AZ. This is a community primarily serviced by Summit Healthcare. Summit currently has an outpatient imaging center and physcian group practice in Snowflake. Paul Watson and Neal Thompson (both Board Members of Summit) have several business interests together that are not necessarily related to Summit. Business interests are generally related to real estate dealings. None were deemed reportable on Schedule L, nor compromised their independence. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process | The 990 is reviewed in the scheduled Governing Board meeting following its completion. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts | Director of Medical Staff/Board Services is responsible for monitoring and ensuring records are updated in a timely manner. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a: Compensation Review & Approval Process - CEO, Top Management | Independent consulting firms are hired to review the compensation of directors, officers, and key employees. Final approval of top management compensation is the responsibility of the Board of Directors. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b: Compensation Review and Approval Process for Officers and Key Employees | Independent consulting firms are hired to review the compensation of directors, officers, and key employees. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available | These documents are made available upon request. |
| Form 990, Part VIII, Statement of Revenue, Lines 11a-b | The Business Activity Code category options provided for Meaningful Use Revenue do not suitably describe those types of activities. Therefore, the code 622000 (Hospitals) was used. Meaningful use revenues are available to when a set of rules and objectives are met during the implementation of electronic health records (EHRs). Meaningful Use Rules include concepts such as improving care coordination, ensuring privacy and security of patients' records, and making sure patients have access to those digital records. If providers can show that they have achieved those criteria, they may be partially reimbursed for implementing EHRs. Thus meaningful use revenues are part of the Program Services of Summit Healthcare Association.The Hospital business code was also used for other types of operating revenue related to hospital operations: such as Medical Supply rebates and Cafeteria and Gift Shop revenues. |
| Form 990, Sch H, Part VI, Supp Info, Exp of How Org Furth Exempt Purp | Continued from Schedule H, Part VI, Supplemental Information, Explanation of How Organization Furthers its Exempt PurposePatient StoriesI just wanted to commend the staff at the Community Clinic for their care of all of us residing in the Heber-Overgaard area. I am a part time resident of Overgaard (for some 20 years) and was in the process of moving up to our summer home when my daughter-in-law convinced me to stop at the clinic because she had noticed that I was having trouble speaking and was really confused. I was seen promptly even though I did not have an appointment. After the assessment, Lorna Reisner, PA, advised me to get in to a neurologist as soon as possible and was willing to facilitate an appointment with the Mayo Clinic for me. She said that she or the nurse would call me once the appointment was made. By the time we got to the house, Lorna had called my daughter-in-law and advised that we shouldnt wait to get that appointment with Mayo Clinic and instead that we should go to a hospital emergency room in the Phoenix area (as neither Show Low nor Payson have a neurologist on staff at this time). Without Lornas insistence of this need, I could have easily had a stroke, a seizure, or even died. I later underwent brain surgery for the removal of a large mass in my temporal lobe. My deepest gratitude goes out to the staff at our little Community Clinic!-Patient Name Withheld for Confidentiality ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~My husband and I wanted to express our deep gratitude for the care and concern that was given to him when I brought him into the Emergency Room. I appreciated so much the RN in charge that lead the Team of Nurses and Aids in the ER. He skillfully expedited the care of my husband when he was in such critical condition, and helped me feel confident that they were doing their very best to handle the anti-fibrillation of his heart and the infection he had in his blood stream. As he has to stay inpatient for four days, we were so impressed with the beautiful spirit of respect, support, and cooperation that all the medical personnel had towards one another. They were so positive and cheerful as they worked together as a wonderful team! May the Lord continue to help this hospital succeed in their purpose of blessing people lives -Patient Name Withheld for Confidentiality~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I was recently a patient in your hospital due to a stroke. I am writing to tell you what wonderful treatment I experienced during those two and a half days. The ER staff was caring, professional and efficient in making me more comfortable, more relaxed and in minimizing my fears. The teleconference with the neurologist at Mayo Clinic was most helpful and totally unexpected. What a great help to determine the cause of my stroke and lead to a quicker recovery. Next step was to go to my room and proceed on to MRI, CAT Scan, and other tests. All the people who interacted with me were polite, skilled, professional and as helpful as could be. Kudos to all of them! Food and room service was excellent, similar to a good hotel. I cannot give enough praise to my head nurse who was so kind, compassionate and professional to both me and my wife. She also has a great sense of humor, which was most appreciated. All of her staff, techs, night nurses and trainees also exhibited all of the above mentioned traits. You should be proud to have such competent, able, caring and genuine people on your staff. I cannot thank them enough! I have nothing but good things to say about Summit Healthcare. Thank you for providing this quality service here on the mountain.-Patient name withheld for confidentiality~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I am a physician assistant and have been practicing medicine in this area since 2003. I frequently hear patients, strangers at the store, and friends state they are going to Phoenix or Tucson for their medical care. They want the childrens hospital, Mayo, or Barrows. I am not afraid to ask them, Whats in a name? and share our story. Below is a small fraction of this story which I would like to share so we can publicly thank the hospital and a few specific people who have gone above and beyond to help our family. In 2009, my two year old son S started developing neurological symptoms. Dr. Paxman, his primary care provider, made the appropriate referrals and the pursuit for diagnosis began. It wasnt until recently that the diagnosis was finally made. My son has Leighs Syndrome, a rare, inherited, progressive, neurometabolic disorder caused by mitochondrial dysfunction. Leighs Syndrome has no cure, no effective treatments, and has a very high mortality rate.My children have had several admissions to SHRMC and they have all been positive. Hope, peace comfort and contentment are words to describe the last admission to SRMC. I would like to highlight some of the events of our last admission with Seth. Seth has had several brain MRIs. These MRIs are important to assess whether the disease is progressing to critical areas of his brain and can be a cause for significant trepidation.The RN who was my sons pre-op nurse and started his IV engaged with S in a way that was amazing and took his mind away from the pain and anxiety of the IV. It was obvious that he truly cared about my boy. He was an excellent nurse and showed compassion toward him. He sensed our apprehension and ambivalence and engaged us and S in a way that eased our worry.When S was getting his MRI under general anesthesia we were waiting in the hospital, when an employee, who was a complete stranger, came up to me and my wife and said You have the cutest little boy I think I have ever seen. He is so adorable. She was somehow involved in his care, in what capacity I do not know. This act of kindness by this employee at Summit brought me back to living in the moment and gave me some contentment. This act of kindness took me away from the fear of this disease.As we were preparing to leave the hospital, I needed to get copies of the MRI for our specialists in Atlanta and Phoenix. Another hospital employee who works in radiology came up to me and comforted me in a way that one only can if you have experienced something similar. I was so touched by her words. I could feel her compassion, sincerity, concern, and true empathy. She knew what I was going through and we connected in a way that you only can connect if you have been in similar circumstances. Those few minutes with this compassionate woman had a profound effect on me.It is easy to get busy on just doing your job about the human or emotional side. It is easy to just get busy, starting the IV or checking vital signs, and forget that there is a little boy with a disease that will likely take his life prematurely. It is easy to forget that there are parents of this little boy who also have feelings who are suffering and sealing with uncertainty. Not the case at Summit. From the volunteers who greeted us as we walked through the front doors to the employees who checked us in. From the nurses who treated S to the technicians who moved him from room to room. From the docs who treat and diagnose to the nurse who wheeled our son to our car. All seem to care and created a hospital environment during a time of fear and trepidation for us.In closing, I would like to talk about one of the doctors who has played a critical role. Our familys story was recently highlighted by a company in Phoenix called T Gen (Translational Genomics Research Institute) as they launched a new Center for Rare Childhood Disorders. In this article, they state Not satisfied, parents eventually took his test results to other doctors. One suggested that he might have Leighs Disease.That one doctor was Grant Berges, MD, who read the initial MRI in 2009 and disagreed with the pediatric radiologist and the pediatric neuroradiologist at Phoenix Childrens Hospital who read the MRI as benign cysts. What does it take for one to disagree with those who have more training and credentials that you? It takes courage and competence, both of which Dr. Berges explicitly has and has demonstrated. I dont want the pediatric neuroradiologists reading my sons brain MRIs done at Summit Healthcare, I want Dr. Berges reading them.I have experienced the so called big name hospitals and have come to realize what Shakespeare meant when he wrote the phrase in Romeo and Juliet, Whats in a name As we have pursued a diagnosis, our family has been to hospitals all across the country. We have been at Yale, Childrens Hospital of Atlanta, Phoenix Childrens Hospital, and St. Josephs Hospital, to name a few.Whats in a name? Well, the hospitals listed above definitely have a name. But these names dont always equate to quality care, compassion and other subjective important things that are difficult to measure and collect data on. Whats in a name?
