Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B
The Form 990 will be distributed via e-mail to the Nebraska Pediatric Practice board members for review prior to filing to the IRS. HOWEVER, SINCE ALL COMPENSATION INFORMATION WILL BE REDACTED FROM THE COPY SENT TO THE BOARD, THE TAXPAYER IS ANSWERING THE QUESTION ON PART VI, SECTION, B, LINE 11A "NO."
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c
An Officer, Director, Commitee Member (including a member of a Board-appointed subcommittee), or Key Employee shall be deemed to have a potential conflict of interest in a contract or transaction if he or she, or a Family Member, is a party (or one of the parties) contracting or dealing with the Corporation. Any duality of interest or potential conflict of interest on the part of any Officer, Director, Committee Member, or Key Employee should be disclosed to the Board of Directors and made a matter of record whenever it arises, or whenever it involves a matter of Board action. Any Officer, Director, or Key Employee having a duality of interest or possible conflict of interest in any matter should not vote or use his or her personal influence on the matter. A majority of the Board who have no conflict of interest in the transaction comprise a quorum for the purpose of taking action on a conflict transaction. In cases in which an Officer, Director, Committee Member, or Key Employee has a financial interest in an arrangement or transaction, the following additional steps may be taken, at the discretion of the Board: a. The interested person may be required to leave the meeting for the general discussion of the matter and the Board vote; and/or b. A disinterested person or committee may be appointed to investigate alternatives to the proposed agreement or transaction. All Officers, Directors, Committee Members, and Key Employees shall review the Conflict of Interest Policy and complete a conflict of interest questionnaire upon initially affiliating with the Corporation. Each year at an established time, a designated person within the Corporation shall send disclosure questionnaires and a copy of the Conflict of Interest Policy to all Officers, Directors, Committee Members, and Key Employees of the Corporation. Persons receiving questionnaires shall respond with respect to potential conflicts of interest. Persons required to report who have not returned questionnaires will be contacted and follow-up will continue on a regular basis until all questionnaires have been returned. The information disclosed will be used to identify and resolve potential conflicts of interest. The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall serve as the Conflict Review Committee, unless, in its discretion, it chooses to appoint a committee composed of Directors of the Board to assume the responsibility. When questionnaires or interim disclosures of any of the members of the Conflict Review Committee are being reviewed, the member being reviewed shall be excused from the committee's deliberations and action. The Conflict Review Committee shall: 1. Review all annual disclosure questionnaires and interim supplemental disclosures from persons subject to the policy. 2. Indentify potential conflicts of interest disclosed in such annual disclosure questionnaires or interim disclosures. 3. Investigate and evaluate, as necessary, potential conflicts of interest, contained in annual disclosure questionnaires or interim disclosures. 4. Report findings, conclusion, and recommendation of the Board for decision and action. 5. Identify, by position or capacity, the employees or other individuals to be designated as Key Employees subject to disclosure requirements under the policy. 6. Keep complete records of its activities. 7. Periodically review the policy and its implementaion procedures to determine whether any changes are required.

Each year, Towers Watson, an independent company, conducts a market analysis of executive compensation, to substantiate the compensation of the President of the Corporation. The President is employed by the Hospital Member and leased to the corporation. This information is presented to the Hospital Member's Compensation Committee for review. Executive base salaries are targeted for the 50th percentile of the market. Towers Watson issues a reasonableness opinion letter regarding the appropriateness of executive pay levels. The Hospital Member's Board of Directors receives a report from the compensation committee.
