SCHEDULE J, PART II EXECUTIVE PERFORMANCE AWARDS Board Members compensated by Providence Health & Services and/or Western HealthConnect entities are covered by the following incentive program: The Executive Incentive Program provides a lump sum award annually as a percent of the executive's base pay. Percent opportunities are aligned with our total compensation philosophy as outlined in Part VI, Section B, Line 15 (Process for determining compensation of top management, officers & key employees). The performance award is based on the level of accomplishment of annual system objectives, in combination with personal goals for top executives. In 2015, 50 percent of the participant awards were based on pre-determined organizational goals consistent with Providence's six strategic priorities of: creating healthier communities together, inspire and develop our people, building enduring relationships with consumers, create alignment with clinicians & care teams, develop and thrive under new care delivery & economic models, and grow by optimizing expert-to-expert capabilities. The remaining 50% was based on a robust set of personal goals designed to align critical mission and business drivers, executive team talent development (deepening talent pipeline for top 200+leaders) and professional development.

Return Reference Explanation
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6 The Sole Corporate Member is Western HealthConnect, a Washington nonprofit corporation.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7a Actions related to the election, removal or filling of vacancies on the Board of Directors must receive final approval by the Corporate Member.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7b The following powers are reserved to the Corporate Member: 1) To amend or repeal the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. 2) To approve the acquisition of assets, incurrence of indebtedness or the lease, sale, transfer, assignment or encumbering of 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. 5) To appoint certified public accountants after receiving the recommendations 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 Providence Health & Services staff and reviewed by their internal Director of Taxes and external tax advisors. The Board of Directors reviewed the Form 990 prior to filing with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Each company that Seattle Science Foundation does business with is required to provide a Form W-9. Internal accounting checks for conflicts of interest at this time. Additionally, the Board and employees are required to sign a conflict of interest statement annually. The Board members working for Providence Health & Services and the Officers of Western HealthConnect are subject to the following policy: Providence Health & Services maintains a conflict of interest policy that applies to board members and management of all Providence-related 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 and Providence. 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 The following process is followed for employees of Seattle Science Foundation: For the CEO/COO, the Board conducted a survey of similar positions and the Executive Committee approved their compensation packages. Compensation for other Key Employees is evaluated by the CEO & COO with input from the Chairman and Treasurer. Studies are completed by the Chairman's HR Department as needed for comparative purposes. For the Board members employed by Providence Health & Services and the Officers of Western HealthConnect, the following process applies: It is Providence's and Western HealthConnect's intention to make financial information accessible and transparent. Although the filing of Form 990 provides insight into how these organizations achieve their Mission, deliver 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. Providence and Western HealthConnect have a single fiduciary Board, with responsibility for financial oversight associated with fulfillment of the Providence and Western HealthConnect missions, developing system policies, protecting the assets entrusted to the organization and overseeing the strategic and operational affairs of all related legal entities. The parent organizations also maintain a network of community boards with responsibility for quality of care oversight, community relations, advocacy and community needs assessments. Providence and Western HealthConnect have a consistent compensation philosophy for all of their employees, including the 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 an 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. Providence/Western HealthConnect is one of the largest 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. Additionally, the labor market continues to spread across health care and into general industry. Because of this, the entities also take into consideration general industry for-profit market data, where applicable. Base salaries for the executives are set at the median level of the market, as identified by the independent consultant and reviewed with the Human Resources Committee. Performance incentives allow executives to earn additional compensation if they achieve specific organizational goals for furthering the operating commitments and strategic objectives - advancing the missions and core values, meeting benchmarks for charity care, achieving quality targets, delivering top-rated patient satisfaction, meeting employee satisfaction goals and reaching financial performance objectives. The Board of Directors conducts a thorough process 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.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and the financial statements of the organization are available to the public on request. Copies of the Consolidated Health System financial statements are available at www2.providence.org.
Form 990, Part XI, line 9: Rounding -2. Loss on Affiliation 2,593,062.
FORM 990, PART I , LINE 6 - VOLUNTEERS As part of the overall learning program for students, a volunteer from Seattle University "job shadowed" several individuals and did medical observation in the bioskills lab.
