Swedish has: * Five hospital campuses (Ballard, Cherry Hill, Edmonds, First Hill and Issaquah). Swedish Edmonds is a separate corporation under the Swedish Health Services "umbrella" and files a separate Form 990. * An ambulatory care center featuring an emergency department, and urgent and primary care clinics in Redmond and Mill Creek.* Swedish Medical Group, a network of more than 100 primary-care and specialty clinics located throughout the Puget Sound.* Affiliations with community hospitals and physician groups.In addition to general medical and surgical care, Swedish is known as a regional referral center, providing specialized treatment in areas such as cardiovascular care, cancer care, neuroscience, orthopedics, high-risk obstetrics, pediatric specialties, organ transplantation and clinical research.Swedish is affiliated with Providence Health & Services, which is a not-for-profit Catholic healthcare ministry committed to providing for the needs of the communities it serves - especially for those who are poor and vulnerable.

Form 990, Schedule H, Part V, Line 7a: www.swedish.org/about/overview/mission-outreach/community-engagement
Part II, Community Building Activities: PROMOTION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH:Swedish Partnerships After we identified negative health trends in our communities, Swedish launched an initiative aimed at strengthening partnerships with agencies whose missions improve the health of our community. The development of the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) provided a scientific approach to allocating sponsorship funds. The CHNA identified and prioritized community needs which in turn offered a litmus test for identifying programs/agencies that impact negative health indicators trends. We instituted a new simplified approach where sponsorship dollars would be matched with agencies that address specific health indicators. Level 1 funding would be for Strategic Partners defined by agencies that closely fit the health-indicator trends. These partners were offered multiple-year partnerships through agreements that focused less on the funds and more about engagement. Our vanguard partnership groups include:*American Heart Association*Lifelong AIDS Alliance*March of Dimes*Senior Services*National Multiple Sclerosis SocietyOur close partnerships with local agencies committed to reversing negative health trends are a fundamental piece of the Swedish Community Benefits Program. These growing partnerships have explored new ways to share resources and encourage teamwork to impact the health of our community. The CEOs and executive directors of these agencies sit on an advisory council that meets quarterly. Below are more details on our unique partnerships. American Heart Association The American Heart Association (AHA) is dedicated to building healthier lives free of heart disease and stroke through cutting-edge research, public and professional education programs and public health. The partnership with Swedish has enhanced opportunities to expand CPR training, community presentations of its Life's Simple 7 cardiovascular program and expand participation in walking and diet programs offered by the AHA. Lifelong AIDS Alliance Lifelong AIDS Alliance empowers people living with or at risk of HIV/AIDS and other chronic conditions to lead healthier lives. As a community care provider, Swedish has partnered with the organization to host conferences focused on prevention, policy and practice, along with forming a Medicaid Expansion work group to understand the upcoming challenges and opportunities with health-care reform in Washington. March of Dimes The March of Dimes works to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality. Long recognized for prenatal, labor and delivery care, Swedish staff works closely with March of Dimes to improve education and support for expecting and new parents, along with an active involvement in public functions and fundraising activities throughout the community. Senior Services Senior Services promotes positive aging for older adults throughout King County. Through its integrated system of quality programs and senior centers they build a just society where aging adults and those who cares for them can live their best lives. Swedish and Senior Services partnership extends access to care to 15 senior housing facilities, center and community groups in ways to build healthier communities. National Multiple Sclerosis Society The Pacific Northwest has the highest rates of multiple sclerosis in the United States. Medical partners are critical to increasing access to education, early treatment protocols and screening. Swedish's physicians participate in numerous community events to provide information and education. Its Charity Care program funds care for uninsured patients and the Swedish Multiple Sclerosis Center hosts regular group support meetings with individuals in various stages of the disease.Sponsorships As a nonprofit health system, Swedish is pleased to support the vital work of local nonprofit organizations. With the advent of the CHNA, we aligned our donation practices to support organizations that work to improve the health of citizens in our community. These organizations must align with our mission, vision and our community needs assessment. Sponsorship Guidelines *Promote healthy living or disease prevention for the general public. *Closely fit the Swedish mission, vision and community needs assessment. *Address a target population in the communities we serve. Program Highlights Global to Local Global to Local is a new approach in applying global solutions to local health-care challenges in underserved populations. Swedish, in partnership with HeathPoint, Public Health-Seattle & King County and the Washington Global Health Alliance, is working to improve the lives of people worldwide. Global to Local seeks to utilize expertise and experience from these organizations to discover ways in which successful global health strategies can be applied in our county, state and country. Global to Local is collaborating with neighboring cities of Tukwila and SeaTac, Wash., to provide innovative, holistic and community-driven solutions to providing health care and economic development strategies in these diverse, low-income populations.Swedish Community Specialty Clinic To further Swedish's commitment to serve the uninsured, we opened the Swedish Community Specialty Clinic at the Swedish/First Hill campus in September 2010. The former Mother Joseph and Glaser specialty clinics combined and partnered with King County Project Access (KCPA) to provide expanded specialty care services to our community. The Community Specialty Clinic provides a workable solution to one of the most pressing health-care problems facing low-income and uninsured people in our community - access to specialty care services. This program builds on the safety net of primary care provided by the community health and public-health clinics in King County. Through KCPA and a volunteer staff of more than 300 Swedish specialty physicians, low-income uninsured patients have access to needed specialty health care and donated ancillary, in- and out-patient hospital services. A Specialty Dental Clinic with more than 30 volunteer oral surgeons and dentists was added. This program was developed and funded through a unique collaboration between Swedish, Project Access Northwest, Seattle-King County Dental Society/Foundation and the Washington Dental Services Foundation. Our goal is to set a new standard in community health and demonstrate the importance of charity care to our nonprofit mission even in tough economic times. Collaborations with King County Hospitals and Public Health Swedish is participating in a collaborative approach that identifies community needs, assets, resources and strategies toward assuring better health and health equity for all King County residents. This collaborative approach will eliminate duplicative efforts, lead to the creation of an effective, sustainable process and stronger relationships between hospitals and public health; and enable joint efforts for implementation strategies that will improve the health and well-being of our communities. The purpose is to institutionalize a collaborative approach to conduct comprehensive CHNA for King County and identify opportunities for the development and implementation of collective, data driven, implementation strategies.
Part III, Line 2: Bad debt expense represents the amount of gross charges for patients who do not have insurance and which Providence was unable to qualify for assistance under either government programs or our internal charity care policy.
Part III, Line 4: The Health System provides for an allowance against patient accounts receivable for amounts that could become uncollectible. The Health System estimates this allowance based on the aging of accounts receivable, historical collection experience by payor, and other relevant factors. There are various factors that can impact the collection trends, such as changes in the economy, which in turn have an impact on unemployment rates and the number of uninsured and underinsured patients, the increased burden of copayments to be made by patients with insurance coverage and business practices related to collection efforts. These factors continuously change and can have an impact on collection trends and the estimation process used by the Health System. The provision for bad debts in 2014 has decreased from 2013 as a result of the expansion of Medicaid programs and initiatives to assist patients in their Medicaid enrollment. The Health System records a provision for bad debts in the period of services on the basis of past experience, which has historically indicated that many patients are unresponsive or are otherwise unwilling to pay the portion of their bill for which they are financially responsible.
Part III, Line 8: It is Providence's policy to exclude any Medicare shortfall from Community Benefit information.The amount reported on Part III, Section B, Line 6, was determined by applying the Cost-to-Charge Ratio to the Medicare revenue.
Part III, Line 9b: Swedish Health Services follows standard collection practices and complies with governing laws, regulations and authorities, including WAC Title 246 Chapter 453, Hospital Charity Care.Charity is re-screened throughout the revenue cycle when account events, such as patient-initiated contact requesting alternative payment options, trigger review. A guarantor may submit a charity care discount application at any point in the revenue cycle, from pre-admission to final payment of the bill. The patient application process is not a requirement for charity eligibility review of accounts with characteristics identified for charity approval.
Part VI, Line 2: NEEDS ASSESSMENT:Working with a community advisory committee made up of key community partners, Swedish developed a community needs assessment tool. This instrument defined, among other things, underserved patient access to care and access for specialty health care needs. The methodology was derived from the leading health indicators for King County and was cross referenced with research done by the Washington Health Foundation, United Way of King County and Healthy People 2010.Based on this information, Swedish has developed partnerships with community agencies where we have combined our resources to impact the negative health trends in the community. To date, we have developed partnerships with the American Diabetes Association, the American Heart Association, Senior Services of King County, March of Dimes, United Way, Lifelong Aids Alliance, National Multiple Sclerosis Society and the Washington Health Foundation.Some current trends affecting the community include: poverty and access to affordable healthcare.Negative local trends affecting the community assessment include: prevalence of low birth weight babies, breast cancer, diabetes, HIV/Aids, hypertension, high blood cholesterol, heavy drinking and multiple sclerosis.Areas seeing improvement in King County, but still needing improvement, include incidence of stroke, colorectal cancer death, lung cancer death, suicide, smoking cessation, vaccinations, aids incidence and seatbelt use.Swedish is customizing and expanding its community needs assessment to each hospital within Swedish Health Services. As of January 2012, each hospital had an individualized assessment geared to the specific community it serves.
Part VI, Line 3: COMMUNICATIONS TO THE PUBLIC:Swedish Medical Center is committed to the provision of healthcare services to all persons in need of medical attention regardless of their ability to pay.Employees are responsible for processing applications in a respectful and courteous manner. Processing should in no way discourage patients from receiving healthcare or result in the delayed provision of essential healthcare services. Charity care/financial assistance are available to any eligible patient without regard to race, color, sex, religion, age or national origin. All interactions with patients must respect the inherent worth of all persons and their individual dignity.Public Notices:Our Financial Assistance (Charity Care) Policy is made available via wall posters that are located in registration areas and emergency departments. Letter size posters are also available in departments and health resource centers.Brochures are available for dissemination or upon request and are available in several languages including, but not limited to, English, Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean. Brochures, applications and the sliding scale are available to any person requesting the information whether in person, by mail or by telephone.Timing of Application:Patients may apply for charity care prior to service, at the time of service or at any point in the billing process up to the resolution of the account.Identification of Charity Care Candidates:Every effort is made to identify patients who would benefit from charity care at the earliest point possible. Care for a patient's well-being is as important as care for their medical needs. It is our goal to diminish a patient's worry over healthcare bills. Employees must be alert to indications that the patient or family has concerns about their ability to pay healthcare bills, even if the patient does not specifically ask about charity care or financial assistance.General Application Process:Once a patient is identified as a charity care candidate, the patient will be interviewed. Interpreters will be offered and arranged as appropriate. Registrars or financial counselors may assist patients in completion of applications.
Part VI, Line 4: COMMUNITY INFORMATION:King County King County's population is not only growing, but is becoming more diverse by race and ethnicity. In 1980, 13 percent of the population was people of color. By 2010, that proportion had grown to 35 percent. This trend is likely to continue as nearly half of all people in King County under age 18 are people of color. In 2009, the Tukwila School District was named the most ethnically diverse school district in the United States. More than 100 languages are spoken in King County and 11 percent of the population over age 5 has limited-English proficiency. The proportion of the population with limited-English proficiency varies significantly across geographic areas of the county. Leading Health Indicators measure environmental conditions and behaviors that impact health and safety as well as specific health outcomes. Key trends in King County include: *Deaths and injuries resulting in hospitalizations due to motor vehicle crashes have continued to decline in the East Region since 1990. Throughout King County, however, injuries have leveled off. Males between the ages of 15-24 and 75 or older had the highest motor vehicle injury death rates. *Infant mortality declined to a rate of 4.3 per 1,000 births in King County. The rate was highest for African Americans, American Indian/Alaska Natives, those living in high poverty areas and South King County residents. *The teen birth rate has declined since 1992, leveling off in 2003. Seattle, North and East Regions have continued to show a decline. Rates declined sharply in high-poverty neighborhoods. All racial/ethnic groups have experienced a drop or leveling of teen births, with the exception of the Hispanic/Latino population, which has risen. Overall, the average level of stress reported by King County residents was not especially high. It decreased among residents in the East Region. By comparison, residents of Seattle and South Region reported more stress than residents of East Region. Younger adults, people of color, people with a high school education or less and people who have lower incomes experience more stress than others. *Abuse of alcohol and use of tobacco remain problems countywide. Although smoking has declined, tobacco use remains common among younger adults, people of color, adults with lower income and lower educational levels. Males were three-times more likely to report binge drinking than females. Five percent of 8th graders reported smoking cigarettes and 12 percent reported using alcohol in the last month. *The proportion of adults who are overweight and obese continued to increase in King County. In 2007, 55.5 percent of King County adults were overweight or obese, up from 47 percent in 1997. Just over half of adults met physical activity recommendations, with 16 percent reporting no leisure-time physical activity in the past month. Among youth, 22 percent were overweight or at-risk of overweight and 39 percent met physical activity recommendations. *Almost 7 percent of adults were severely limited in their daily activities due to poor health, increasing from 1998 to 2007. Twenty-one percent of adults in King County reported a disability due to a lasting physical, emotional or mental problem, with or without accompanying poor health. *Following a decline from 1993 to 2001, the percentage of King County adults under the age of 65 without health insurance rose to 13 percent. Uninsured rates were highest in the South Region. Younger adults, Hispanic/Latino population, men, those with low income and those with low educational attainment were more likely to be uninsured. Approximately 15,000 children ages 18 or younger were uninsured in 2006. Snohomish County There are 704,300 residents in Snohomish County. Key demographic features of Snohomish County include: *A population that has grown rapidly and become more diverse. Snohomish County has grown 16.2 percent since 2000 and is expected to increase to 862,000 by 2020. Hispanics were the fastest growing ethnic group. *An aging population, with middle-aged adults (45-64 years) increasing by 48 percent since 1990. *A growing population of vulnerable residents (as measured by the percent of births paid for by Medicaid and percentage of residents without health insurance) is increasing as well. King County Community Health Indicators Each indicator includes separate measures linked to King County trends and demographics, data for King County Health Planning Areas and comparisons to other U.S. counties and the Healthy People 2010 Indicator, if available.
Part VI, Line 6: AFFILIATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM:The Health System owns or operates 34 general acute care hospitals, three ambulatory care centers, six medical groups, six long term care facilities, seven homecare and hospice entities, five assisted living facilities, a high school, a university, 13 low income housing projects, the Health Plan, a health services contractor, two programs of all inclusive care for the elderly, and 23 controlled fundraising foundations.The Health System provides inpatient, outpatient, primary care, and home care services in Alaska, Washington, Montana, Oregon, and Southern California. The Health System operates these businesses primarily in the greater metropolitan areas of Anchorage, Alaska; Seattle, Spokane, Kennewick, and Olympia, Washington; Missoula, Montana; Portland and Medford, Oregon; and Los Angeles, California

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, Line 1a The reporting organization did not provide any of the benefits listed in Part I, Line 1a. However, as part of the related organization's philosophy of transparency, the narrative that follows relates to the compensation and benefits provided by the related organization. Swedish executives adhere to the Providence Expense Reimbursement Procedures which include the following policies. First Class Travel or Charter Travel or Travel of Companions Air travel is reimbursable for tourist or economy class and should be at the least expensive airfare; which permits departures and arrivals at reasonable times and reasonable distance traveled. Employees are encouraged to plan in advance to get available discounts. Airline frequent flyer upgrades will never be reimbursed. First class air travel will only be reimbursed when tourist or economy class air travel is not available and business travel is mandated by a supervisor. In the rare circumstance that an executive must fly on a first class full fare ticket, their senior level supervisor must approve this expense. Companion travel will only be reimbursed by the organization for travel related to relocation, and should not exceed two relocation-related visits, unless approved by the Executive Vice President/Chief People and Experience Officer. Spouse or Companion Travel. Travel expenses incurred by a Swedish Health Services employee's spouse or companion will not be reimbursed by Swedish unless the spouse or companion is required to, or invited to attend a System-sponsored meeting. These expenses may be considered a taxable benefit by the IRS and if so, will be included on the employee's W- 2. During 2014, there were two First Class tickets utilized by Officers, Directors or Key Employees listed on Form 990, Part VII. Tax Indemnifications or Gross-Up Payments Providence Health & Services follows the federal and state taxation laws related to relocation expenses paid to the employee or to a third party on the employee's behalf. They are considered income and are therefore subject to payroll taxes. Based on the way Swedish has chosen to pay the relocation expenses, Swedish reports reimbursements and payments to vendors as income and these expense payments are reflected on the executive's Form W-2. Swedish will gross-up the relocation benefits to offset the personal tax burden to the employee for IRS allowable expenses. During 2014, the following Listed Persons received gross-up payments: Debra Canales Anthony Armada Lisa Vance Craig Wright, MD Cindra Syverson Arnie Schaffer Housing Allowance or Residence for Personal Use Swedish Health Services provides housing allowances for purposes of relocation assistance only. Swedish may pay temporary living expenses for the employee up to a maximum of 90 calendar days. Covered expenses are rent (excluding "rent" which may be paid in order to occupy a new permanent residence until the title clears) and utilities, including heat, electricity, gas, water, local internet and local telephone and garbage services. The Executive Vice President/Chief People and Experience Officer may approve temporary housing assistance for up to six months when family relocation is delayed to accommodate the school year or equivalent circumstances. Only in extenuating circumstances is housing extended beyond this six month period. During 2014, the following Listed Persons received relocation/housing program payments: Debra Canales Anthony Armada Lisa Vance Craig Wright, MD Cindra Syverson Arnie Schaffer The amounts reported for these relocation/housing payments are included on Schedule J, Part II, Column B (iii) - Other Reportable Compensation.

Return Reference Explanation
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6 The sole corporate member of the corporation is Western HealthConnect, a Washington nonprofit corporation.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7b The following powers are reserved to and exercised exclusively by Member: 1) To amend or repeal the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; 2) To approve the acquisition of assets, the incurrence of indebtedness or the lease, sale, transfer, assignment, or encumbering of the assets; 3) To approve the dissolution, liquidation, consolidation or merger with another corporation or entity; 4) To approve the annual operating and capital budgets of the Corporation on a consolidated region-wide basis and recommend approval of the Corporation's budget; and 5) To appoint certified public accountants after receiving the recommendation of the Board of Directors, and to receive the annual audit report from such accountants.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11 The Form 990 is prepared internally by experienced staff and reviewed by the internal Director of Taxes and external tax advisors. The Board and signing Officer reviewed the Form 990 in detail. Once approved, an electronic copy of the Form 990 is emailed to the Board prior to filing with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Swedish Health Services is a Providence-related Organization. Providence Health & Services maintains a conflict of interest policy that applies to board members and management of all Providence-related and affiliated organizations. The purpose of the policy is to guide and direct those serving the Providence Health & Services' corporations and other legal entities so they can (1) fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities and exercise stewardship in ways that promote and protect the best interests of Providence and, (2) avoid situations that create a conflict, or the appearance of a conflict, between the interests of an individual associated with Providence/Swedish. On an annual basis, each board member and management level employee must complete and submit an updated conflict of interest statement. Conflict of interest disclosures are reviewed by the System Integrity Department working in conjunction with the Department of Legal Affairs. If it is determined that an actual conflict exists, appropriate follow-up action is taken with the individual to rectify the conflict.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 Process for determining compensation of top management, officers & key employees: It is Swedish's intention to make financial information accessible and transparent. Although the filing of Form 990 provides insight into how Swedish achieves its Mission, delivers its programs and stewards its finances, deciphering the information directly from Form 990 can be challenging. The following paragraphs provide further information about the process we use to determine compensation for top management, officers and key employees. Swedish has a single fiduciary Board, with responsibility for financial oversight associated with fulfillment of the Providence Mission, developing system policies, protecting the assets entrusted to the organization and overseeing the strategic and operational affairs of Providence's legal entities. Providence also maintains a network of community ministry boards with responsibility for quality of care oversight, community relations, advocacy and community needs assessments. Swedish has a consistent compensation philosophy for all of its employees, including our senior executives. Salaries for senior executives are reviewed by the Board's Human Resources Committee and approved by the full Board of Directors, none of whom is a Providence or Swedish employee. The Board retains an independent consultant each year to review salaries of those in the most significant leadership roles in the organization. Part of the consultant's role is to review an extensive array of compensation surveys of large, not-for-profit health care systems in the United States. Swedish is an affiliate of Providence Health & Services, which is one of the larger health systems in the country, and as such, the Board benchmarks executive compensation against other large, not-for-profit health systems whose revenue is similar to that of Providence. Base salaries for Swedish executives are set at the median level of the market, as identified by the independent consultant and reviewed with the Human Resources Committee. Additionally, the Providence President/CEO utilizes the market information provided by the consultant along with formal performance evaluations, to determine salary recommendations for senior executives. This process includes a rigorous and thorough analysis of those recommendations with the Human Resources Committee as a part of the review and approval process. Performance incentives allow executives to earn additional compensation if they achieve specific organizational and individual goals for furthering Swedish's operating principles - meeting benchmarks for community benefit, achieving quality targets, delivering top-rated customer satisfaction, meeting employee satisfaction goals and reaching financial performance objectives. The Board of Directors conducts an in-depth review to ensure performance incentives are aligned with appropriate practices for not-for-profit health care systems. The Board's process for executive compensation fully complies with IRS standards and mirrors the best practices recommended in the "Report to Congress and the Nonprofit Sector on Governance, Transparency, and Accountability" submitted to the Senate Finance Committee by the Panel on the Nonprofit Sector.
