Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4 BANNER MEDICAL GROUP COLORADO (BMGC) WAS FORMED FOR THE PURPOSES OF ENABLING THE BANNER HEALTH (BH) SYSTEM TO PROVIDE INTEGRATED AND COORDINATED CARE AND POPULATION HEALTH MANAGEMENT, THEREBY FURTHERING BANNER'S EXEMPT PURPOSES BY ENABLING IT TO PROVIDE HIGHER QUALITY, MORE EFFICIENT (AND LESS DUPLICATIVE) AND LESS EXPENSIVE HEALTHCARE FOR THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES. BY CONSOLIDATING PHYSICIAN EMPLOYMENT WITHIN A SINGLE ENTITY, BMGC IS ABLE TO COORDINATE AND INTEGRATE WITH BH IN ORDER TO IMPROVE TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY IN THE PHYSICIAN OPERATIONS AND TO ALIGN THE PHYSICIAN OPERATIONS MORE FULLY AND CONSISTENTLY WITH THE EXEMPT PURPOSES AND OPERATIONS OF BH. THIS ALLOWS THE BH SYSTEM TO RESPOND TO CHANGES IN THE COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE SYSTEM ENCOURAGED BY THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT OF 2010. BMGC ACTIVITIES ARE PRIMARILY FUNDED THROUGH PROFESSIONAL REVENUE EARNED THROUGH THE ACTIVITIES OF THE EMPLOYED PHYSICIANS AND SUPPORT FROM BH. BMGC'S EMPLOYED PHYSICIANS PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING SERVICES: A. MOST OF THE PHYSICIANS ARE HOUSED IN BANNER HEALTH CLINICS LOCATED THROUGHOUT THE SERVICE AREA OF BH'S ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS. THESE PHYSICIANS INCLUDE PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS AND SPECIALISTS WHO MEET THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE AREA BY PROVIDING HIGH-QUALITY HEALTHCARE IN A CONVENIENT AND PATIENT-FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT. A NUMBER OF THESE PHYSICIANS WILL EVENTUALLY BE GROUPED INTO LARGER BANNER HEALTH CENTERS WHICH WILL PROVIDE A VARIETY OF PRIMARY AND SPECIALIST PHYSICIAN SERVICES AND ANCILLARY SERVICES SUCH AS CLINICAL LABORATORY, IMAGING, PHYSICAL THERAPY, AMBULATORY SURGERY, AND OTHER SERVICES FOUND IN MULTI-SPECIALTY PHYSICIAN CLINIC SITES. B. ANOTHER GROUP OF BMGC'S PHYSICIANS ARE WORKING, AND WILL CONTINUE TO WORK, PRIMARILY IN BH'S ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS TO PROVIDE SPECIALTY PROCEDURE-BASED CARE, SUCH AS CARDIOLOGY, GASTROENTEROLOGY, UROLOGY, RADIOLOGY, CARDIOVASCULAR SURGERY, BARIATRIC SURGERY, ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY AND GENERAL SURGERY. THIS GROUP OF PHYSICIANS ALSO INCLUDES HOSPITALISTS, WHO PROVIDE 24/7 CARE FOR PATIENTS ADMITTED TO BH'S ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS, AND INTENSIVISTS, WHO PROVIDE CARE FOR PATIENTS ADMITTED TO BH'S INTENSIVE CARE UNITS, INCLUDING INTENSIVISTS WHO ARE EMPLOYED IN BH'S E-ICU, A REMOTE ICU MONITORING SYSTEM THAT ENABLES HIGHLY TRAINED AND EXPERIENCED INTENSIVISTS HOUSED IN REMOTE MONITORING CENTERS TO OBSERVE AND MONITOR ICU PATIENTS ON A 24/7 BASIS, INCLUDING PATIENTS ADMITTED TO ICUS IN BH'S SMALLER, RURAL HOSPITALS. C. ANOTHER COMPONENT OF BMGC'S PHYSICIANS AND ALLIED HEALTH PROVIDERS PROVIDE OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH SERVICES IN BH'S OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH CLINICS. THESE CLINICS PROVIDE TRADITIONAL WORKERS COMPENSATION, EMPLOYEE HEALTH EVALUATIONS AND SIMILAR SERVICES, BOTH FOR BH'S SUBSTANTIAL WORKFORCE AND FOR EMPLOYERS IN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY BH'S HOSPITALS.

FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 15 PART VI, LINE 15A WAS ANSWERED "NO" IN ACCORDANCE WITH FORM 990 INSTRUCTIONS BECAUSE THE FILING ENTITY DOES NOT DETERMINE COMPENSATION. THE COMPENSATION OF THE BANNER MEDICAL GROUP COLORADO CEO IS DETERMINED BY THE BANNER HEALTH EXECUTIVE VICE-PRESIDENT/CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER AND IS SUBJECT TO OVERSIGHT BY THE BANNER HEALTH BOARD OF DIRECTORS COMPENSATION COMMITTEE IN THE SAME MANNER AS SUCH OVERSIGHT IS EXERCISED OVER OTHER VICE PRESIDENTS AND HIGHER EXECUTIVES OF BANNER HEALTH. THE COMPENSATION OF OTHER OFFICERS OF BANNER MEDICAL GROUP COLORADO IS ESTABLISHED BY THE BANNER MEDICAL GROUP COLORADO CEO, IF THEY ARE EMPLOYEES OF BANNER MEDICAL GROUP COLORADO, OR BY BANNER HEALTH, IF THEY ARE EMPLOYEES OF BANNER HEALTH, IN EACH CASE WITHIN COMPENSATION RANGES SET BY THE BANNER HEALTH COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS DEPARTMENT BASED ON MARKET DATA. BANNER HEALTH'S PROCESS TO DETERMINE THE COMPENSATION OF BANNER MEDICAL GROUP COLORADO IS AS FOLLOWS: BANNER HEALTH UTILIZES A COMPENSATION COMMITTEE THAT EXERCISES OVERSIGHT OVER ALL ASPECTS OF THE COMPENSATION PAID TO OR FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CEO AND ALL OTHER SENIOR EXECUTIVES OF BANNER HEALTH AND ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, INCLUDING BANNER MEDICAL GROUP COLORADO CEO, AND ALL OTHER PERSONS WHO CONSTITUTE "DISQUALIFIED PERSONS" WITH RESPECT TO BANNER HEALTH UNDER CODE SECTION 4958.

IN ADDITION, THE COMMITTEE HAS ADOPTED THE FOLLOWING BEST PRACTICES WITH RESPECT TO ITS EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION OVERSIGHT FUNCTION: RECEIVES THE REPORT OF THE VICE PRESIDENT, TOTAL COMPENSATION, REGARDING ALL MATERIAL INCENTIVE PLANS, BENEFIT PLANS AND PROGRAMS THAT APPLY TO EMPLOYEES AND PHYSICIANS GENERALLY; APPROVES THE BANNER HEALTH CEO'S RECOMMENDATIONS AS TO THE COMPENSATION OF SENIOR EXECUTIVES. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE MAY RETAIN EXTERNAL INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANTS TO THE EXTENT THE COMMITTEE DEEMS NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE TO CARRY OUT ITS RESPONSIBILITIES. IF SO ENGAGED, THE COMMITTEE HAS RESPONSIBILITY FOR APPROVING THE FEES AND THE TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT FOR THE CONSULTANTS, AS WELL AS TERMINATION OF SUCH ENGAGEMENT. TYPICALLY, THE COMMITTEE HAS ENGAGED A CONSULTANT ANNUALLY TO REVIEW AND OPINE AS TO THE REASONABLENESS OF THE CEO'S COMPENSATION PACKAGE AND HAS ENGAGED A CONSULTANT APPROXIMATELY ONCE EVERY THREE YEARS TO REVIEW AND OPINE AS TO THE REASONABLENESS OF SENIOR EXECUTIVE AND OTHER EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT COMPENSATION, INCLUDING THAT OF THE BANNER MEDICAL GROUP COLORADO CEO. THE COMMITTEE PERIODICALLY REVIEWS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BANNER HEALTH AND EACH CONSULTANT TO ENSURE THE CONSULTANT'S INDEPENDENCE. IN CONNECTION WITH EACH SUCH EVALUATION, THE COMMITTEE REQUESTS A WRITTEN CERTIFICATION FROM EACH CONSULTANT THAT: INCLUDES AN INDEPENDENCE ATTESTATION AFFIRMING THAT THE CONSULTANT HAS CONDUCTED ITS OWN INTERNAL ASSESSMENT AND, BASED ON SUCH ASSESSMENT AND ITS INTERNAL CONTROLS, CONCLUDED THAT IT HAS PERFORMED ITS SERVICES FOR THE COMMITTEE IN AN INDEPENDENT MANNER AND IS INDEPENDENT AS DEFINED IN THE INTERMEDIATE SANCTION REGULATIONS UNDER CODE SECTION 4958; CONFIRMS THAT THE CONSULTANT REPORTS TO THE COMMITTEE THROUGH THE CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE AND THAT ALL CONSULTING ACTIVITY FOR BANNER HEALTH CONDUCTED BY SUCH CONSULTANT DURING THE PRECEDING YEAR WAS CONDUCTED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE AND CONSENT OF THE CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE; AND DETAILS THE AMOUNTS PAID BY BANNER HEALTH TO THE CONSULTANT IN ITS CAPACITY AS AN EXTERNAL COMPENSATION CONSULTANT TO THE COMMITTEE, AND THE AMOUNTS PAID BY BANNER HEALTH, IF ANY, TO THE CONSULTANT AND ITS AFFILIATES FOR ANY OTHER ENGAGEMENTS. THE COMMITTEE MAY ALSO REQUIRE THE CONSULTANT TO VERIFY THAT IT MEETS THE DEFINITION OF "INDEPENDENCE" AS DESCRIBED IN THE FORM 990 INSTRUCTIONS. COMPENSATION SURVEYS AND STUDIES ARE UTILIZED BY INDEPENDENT CONSULTANTS THAT THE COMMITTEE MAY ENGAGE FROM TIME TO TIME.
