Form and Line Reference Explanation
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 5 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital, Inc.. The FY2016 CHNA was conducted through a collaborative effort involving United Way of the Plains, Via Christi Health and the Sedgwick County Health Department. The CHNA conducted a 6-county area in South Central Kansas encompassing Sedgwick, Butler, Harvey, Kingman, Reno and Sumner counties which is the primary service area of the United Way of the Plains. Primary service area for Via Christi Hospital is Sedgwick County although patients are residents from all over Kansas depending on their specific needs. A random sample of 6,808 surveys were mailed out on December 31, 2015. Additional surveys were distributed to ascertain the communities needs from local community leaders (selected by a reputational approach or because they held a public office) and to not-for-profit executives who have daily contact with those requesting assistance for financial, counseling, health or other types of needs. There were 670 community leaders surveys and 262 agency executives surveys distributed. There were a total of 841 household, 125 community leaders and 109 agency executives surveys completed and analyzed for a total of 841 surveys. There were over 100 different agencies represented in the returned surveys. The surveys themselves were anonymous but here are some of the agencies who received the surveys and asked to participate in the research effort: Sedgwick County Health Department, Sedgwick County Mental Health Department, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Catholic Charities, Salvation Army, American Red Cross, Boys & Girls Club, USD#259, Mental Health Association, Family Consultation Services, Urban League, Kansas School for Effective Learning, YMCA, Center of Hope, GraceMed Clinic, Hunter Health Clinic, Guadalupe Clinic, etc.

Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 6b Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital, Inc.. Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital, Inc. conducted the CHNA with the following organizations: UNITED WAY OF THE PLAINS THE THREE FOCUS AREAS OF THE UNITED WAY OF THE PLAINS IS EDUCATION, INCOME AND HEALTH. THEY HAVE BEEN CONDUCTING COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS SINCE 1985 AND ARE SEEN AS THE LEADER IN ASSESSMENTS IN THE SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS AREA. IT SEEMED LIKE A NATURAL CHOICE TO JOIN FORCES WITH THEM AND THE SEDGWICK COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT IN CONDUCTING OUR CHNA. Sedgwick County Health Department IN 2009, THE SEDGWICK COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT STARTED AN ANNUAL DATA BOOK AND HEALTH PRIORITIES REPORT LOOKING AT ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, OBESITY AND DIABETES, MENTAL HEALTH, ORAL HEALTH AND HEALTH DISPARITIES. INSTEAD OF HAVING THREE SEPARATE REPORTS, COLLEAGUES GOT TOGETHER TO ESTABLISH ONE CHNA FOR THE AREA. SEDGWICK COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT ONLY FOCUSES ON SEDGWICK COUNTY WHEREAS, THE CHNA COVERS MULTIPLE COUNTIES IN AND AROUND WICHITA, KANSAS. THESE PARTNERS HAVE SHARED IN THE CHNA IN 2013 AND 2016.
Schedule H, Part V, Section B, Line 11 Facility , 1 Facility , 1 - Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital (VCRH). In FY2016, VCRH contributed nearly $1.1 million in community benefit. VCRH serves patients in regaining their functional independence following a major illness, trauma or surgery. The specialized facility offers comprehensive inpatient and outpatient therapy for children, including toddler, and adults, any provides rehabilitation treatment for stroke, spinal cord injuries, limb loss, orthopedic issues and brain injuries. Respondents were asked to prioritize three community issues education, income and self-sufficiency and health. Community respondents ranked the education community issue area as the highest priority for their local community. Among the educational issues, they ranked school readiness and reading at grade level by 3rd grade. Community respondents ranked the income/self-sufficiency community issue area as the second highest priority for their local community. Among income/self-sufficiency issues, they ranked employment/job training and housing. Health issue areas ranked third highest by community respondents. Their areas of concern revolved around access to health care which ran the gamut including health insurance, affordability, availability, medical practitioners accepting specific types of health insurance coverage; having a sufficient number of medical professionals to serve various geographic areas and medical transportation. The random sample of community households were asked to review and rate 63 education, health and income concerns and asked to rate whether any of these were a major, moderate, minor or a non-issue for their household or neighborhood. Following are the top ten major health issues that respondents identified as a problem for their household and/or neighborhood. 1) Health insurance 2) Basic medical care for low-income 3) Prescription medicine financial assistance 4) Child abuse prevention/education 5) Immunization of adults/children 6) Human trafficking prevention/education 7) Family violence prevention 8) Food assistance 9) Sexual assault prevention/education 10) Counseling/mental health services Major Identified Needs Being Addressed by VCRH Health Insurance Goal: To support the expansion of Medicaid in the State of Kansas and encouraging patients to participate in the Accountable Care Act insurance exchange programs In concert with Via Christi Health leadership team and board of directors, VCRH continues to be a strong proponent in the need to expand Medicaid across Kansas. Affordable health care, in our Catholic tradition, should be a right given to all but especially for those who are poor and vulnerable. VCRH continues to offer charity care to the poor, takes care of those who are recipients of Medicaid and Medicare knowing that the government will not be paying the full cost of that care, and aggressively assist those who come into its hospital to register for programs to which they are entitled. Basic Medical Care for Low-Income Goal: To improve the patients' understanding on the need for a medical care home Basic medical care for all people is a right and responsibility of every community. People who are ill and denied medical care not only jeopardize their own health but may impact others who share their environment. Waiting until one is in crisis to seek medical care is not only dangerous but may have serious economic impact for families, health care providers and hospitals. Having a medical home, a place where one can call and make an appointment to see a physician and/or a nurse practitioner prior to having an emergency is in the best interest of all, especially the patient who can receive quality preventive care or treatment at the time of illness. Patients accessing the Emergency Room each time they are in need of care are denying themselves the benefits that come with having a medical home. Having a doctor, nurse or other practitioner who knows your personal medical history will provide patients with the best long-term care. VCRH case managers work with patients to find medical homes prior to discharge from our hospital. Prescription Medicine Financial Assistance Goal: To improve the patients' ability to afford their required medications VCRH inpatients, as well as clinic outpatients may be eligible to receive financial assistance in procuring their required medications. VCRH has access to Via Christi's 340B drug pricing program on medication and pays an annual fee to be a Dispensary of Hope Pharmacy as well. Involvement in both of these programs is to better serve vulnerable patients and to decrease the burden of cost for uninsured patients who are in need of prescription assistance. In addition, VCRH continues to look for new ways to procure medication discounts for all patients whether they are being discharged from one of its hospitals is getting outpatient treatment in one of its clinics. Counseling/Mental Health Services Goal: To work with the community in finding better ways to identify, treat and keep safe people diagnosed with mental health illness or are in crisis VCRH staff works with COMCARE, the Sedgwick County Mental Healthcare provider, to get people evaluated and processed for appropriate care when required. In addition, VCRH is working in tandem with other Via Christi Hospitals, its Behavioral Health Center staff and other mental health/substance abuse providers to develop a long-term strategic plan in dealing with rehabilitation inpatients who may have a mental health diagnosis or who have had a history of substance abuse. Identified Major Needs That Will Not Directly Be Addressed by VCR Child Abuse Prevention/Education - The VCRH is not directly involved with child abuse prevention and education; however, they do work with many unified school districts' athletic directors, coaches and trainers to provide them with a variety of training to ensure they are knowledgeable how best to protect the school children. The VCRH staff train these individuals in the latest techniques on CPR, sports injuries and how best to prepare players for medical transport, heat stroke and more. When requested, VCRH staff works in partnership with VCH-W's Behavioral Health Unit to teach area school staff on recognizing bullying traits and how best to handle it in the classroom and on the field. Immunization of Adults/Children - VCRH does not provide immunizations of adults or children outside of their own walls. There are other organizations in the community, including the FQHCs and Via Christi Clinics who offer annual immunizations. Human Trafficking Prevention/Education - Via Christi Health has become a national model for Ascension Health in dealing with this vulnerable population. They are working closely with local and state law enforcement agencies and VCH-W's Forensic Nursing Program to address the needs of those who identified as human trafficking victims in our clinics or emergency rooms. Other agencies, in Sedgwick County are also focusing attention and resources on this issue so VCRH feels this need is already being addressed but stands ready to assist if needed. Family Violence Prevention - Is a serious public health problem, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. From infants to the elderly, it can affect people in all stages of life regardless of race, religion or economic status. Many victims survive the violence but suffer physical, mental and or emotional health problems through the rest of their lives. VCRH certainly treats these victims should one be in need of rehabilitation therapy but several agencies exist in the Sedgwick County area that address this problem already. Patients who are victims are referred to the most appropriate agencies for assistance by VCRH social workers when appropriate. Food Assistance - VCRH periodically participates in food drives sponsored by Via Christi Health and in addition, when patients are admitted to their hospital, the social worker keeps a watchful eye out for those who may be eligible to receive government assistance (e.g. Medicaid, Food Stamps, etc.). When appropriate the social worker will talk with the patient to see if accessing a quality food supply is a challenge to the patient and assist them with filling out the appropriate paperwork to get access. In addition, they will also let their patients know about community resources that are available (e.g. Our Daily Bread Pantry, North Heights Christian Church Food Pantry, New Beginnings Food Handout, His Helping Hands Food Pantry, Center of Hope, Community Food Ministry, etc.). Sexual Assault Prevention/Education - Sexual assault occurs when consent is not obtained or given freely by one individual to another prior to sexual contact. VCRH supports the work of the agencies, funded by United Way, that address this problem through their One Community Campaign.

Form and Line Reference Explanation
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 7 States with which the organization files a community benefit report. The state of Kansas does not require hospitals to file community benefit reports; but VCH distributes our community benefit totals and activities annually in press releases, as well as, in our annual report.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 6a Community Benefit Report Via Christi Health, Inc. produces a consolidated annual report for all ministries in their periodical magazine called "Via Christi Life". Within the report, several pages describe the Community Benefit activities that have taken place over the last year and the monetary value to the Wichita area. Community Benefit Report: Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital, Inc. ("VCRH") is a member of Via Christi Health, Inc. ("VCH"). As a Catholic health system, VCRH has its origins in faith-based responses to health needs of our communities, with a particular concern for those living in poverty and who are vulnerable. The obligation to reach out to those in need and improve community health flows directly from our identity as a faith-based healing ministry. As a mission-driven organization, we provide community benefit because we are committed to our core values of: - Service of the Poor - Generosity of spirit, especially for persons most in need. - Reverence - Respect and compassion for the dignity and diversity of life. - Integrity - Inspiring trust through personal leadership. - Wisdom - Integrating excellence and stewardship. -Creativity - Courageous innovation. - Dedication - Affirming the hope and joy of our ministry. According to the VCRH mission statement, "As a part of Via Christi Health, Inc., we share this mission: Inspired by the Gospel and our Catholic tradition, we serve as a healing presence with special concern for our neighbors who are vulnerable." The financial information in this report was prepared in accordance with the Catholic Health Association's (CHA) A Guide for Planning and Reporting Community Benefit Guidelines (2015). Per these guidelines, we report the net expense for community benefit services (e.g. the total community benefit expense minus any associated revenue from patients, residents, payers and other external sources). The CHA guidelines reflect a conservative approach to reporting quantifiable community benefit. The goal of the guidelines is to produce community benefit financial reports that reflect true costs and that describe community benefit activities that increase access to health care and improve community health for all. The following are VCRH's definitions for quantifiable community benefits reports. Charity Care - free or discounted health services provided to persons who cannot afford to pay and who meet VCH's criteria for financial assistance. Charity care is reported in terms of costs, not charges. Charity care does not include bad debt. Government Sponsored Means-Tested Health Care - includes unpaid costs of public programs for low-income persons. The shortfall created when VCH receives payments that are less than the cost of caring for public program beneficiaries. This payment shortfall is not the same as a contractual allowance, which is the full difference between charges and government payments. For Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016 Community Benefit (VCRH): 1. Charity Care, at cost: $497.2 thousand 2. Government Sponsored Health Care, net expense: Unpaid cost of public indigent care programs (includes Medicaid, SCHIP and other safety net programs; does not include Medicare shortfall): $730.7 thousand 3. Community Benefit programs, net expense: $140.0 thousand 4. Total Quantifiable Community Benefit: $1.37 million
Schedule H, Part III, Line 1 BAD DEBT IN ACCORDANCE WITH STATEMENT NO. 15 VCRH reports bad debt in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Healthcare Financial Management Statement No. 15 is followed to the extent that it aligns with the guidelines set forth by GAAP.
Schedule H, Part I, Line 6a Community benefit report prepared by related organization Via Christi Health
Schedule H, Part I, Line 7 Costing Methodology used to calculate financial assistance The cost of providing charity care, means tested government programs, and community benefit programs is estimated using cost data and is calculated in compliance with Catholic Health Association (CHA) guidelines. The best available data was used to calculate the amounts reported in the table. For the information in the table, a cost-to-charge ratio was calculated and applied.
Schedule H, Part II Community Building Activities Not applicable
Schedule H, Part III, Line 2 Bad debt expense - methodology used to estimate amount Bad debt expense at cost is determined using the same cost-to-charge ratio that is used for charity care and Medicaid shortfall. VCRH follows the guidance from CHA and does not consider bad debt as a community benefit. For FY16 there was a one-time accounting change which resulted in the negative ending balance. Without this adjustment, the FY16 bad debt expense would have been $107,750.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 3 Bad Debt Expense Methodology VCRH has a very robust financial assistance program; therefore, no estimate is made for bad debt attributed to financial assistance eligible patients.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 4 Bad debt expense - financial statement footnote From the audited financial statements of Ascension Health Alliance (which include the activity of Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital, Inc.): The provision for doubtful accounts is based upon management's assessment of expected net collections considering historical experience, economic conditions, trends in healthcare coverage, and other collection indicators. Periodically throughout the year, management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical write-off experience by payor category, including those amounts not covered by insurance. The results of this review are then used to make any modifications to the provision for doubtful accounts to establish an appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts. After satisfaction of amounts due from insurance and reasonable efforts to collect from the patient have been exhausted, the System follows established guidelines for placing certain past-due patient balances with collection agencies, subject to the terms of certain restrictions on collection efforts as determined by the System. Accounts receivable are written off after collection efforts have been followed in accordance with the System's policies. The methodology for determining the allowance for doubtful accounts and related write-offs on uninsured patient accounts has remained consistent with the prior year. VCRH's bad debt deduction was ($180,580) at charges and ($77,400) at cost (after the cost to charge ratio was applied to the amount of charges).
Schedule H, Part III, Line 8 Community benefit & methodology for determining medicare costs VCRH follows the CHA guidelines regarding Medicare and does not include it as community benefit. However, the methodology described in the instructions to Schedule H, Part III, Section B, Line 7 for reporting Medicare shortfall does not take into account all costs incurred by VCRH and does not represent the total Medicare shortfall. The Medicare shortfall reported on Schedule H, Part III, Section B, Line 7 was determined using information from the organization's Medicare cost report (using the Medicare cost report step-down methodology of allocating costs). However, utilizing an internal cost accounting system actually results in a smaller Medicare surplus of $31,530. The most common reason for a difference between the Medicare shortfall reported on Schedule H and the actual shortfall reported above include - inclusion of Medicare advantage revenue and expenses; inclusion of Medicare Part B revenue and expenses; inclusion of other fee schedule revenue; other timing issues; and costs that are considered unallowable on the Medicare cost report that are, in fact, related to Medicare Patient care.
Schedule H, Part III, Line 9b Collection practices for patients eligible for financial assistance It is the policy of VCRH to promote socially just practices for billing and collections for all patients receiving care. The policy is intended to further VCRH's mission by requiring ethical conduct in billing and collecting self-pay balances from patient/guarantor's regardless of ability to pay. The policy ensures that prior to turning an account over to a Third Party Collection Agent (Agent) for collection activity, VCRH will perform a reasonable review of each account to verify that the patient/guarantor is not potentially eligible for any government assistance program (e.g.: Medicaid, Medicare, etc.) and would likely not qualify for charity care. VCRH will direct its staff and Agents to periodically assess each patient/guarantor's ability to pay or to determine eligibility for charity care. The review and assessment should include but may not be limited to the following: a. Ensure the patient/guarantor has been notified of VCRH's financial assistance policy; b. Ensure the patient/guarantor was offered a financial assistance application; c. Ensure documentation of any known extraordinary financial circumstances of the patient/guarantor or if they are medically indigent.

Schedule H, Part VI, Line 2 Needs assessment In addition, to the CHNAs conducted every 3 years by the hospital, VCRH makes use of other research conducted in the community, for example, Sedgwick County Health Department's annual plan, the United Way's Environmental Scan, up-to-date downloads from the Census Bureau, as well as Kansas University's Institute for Policy and Social Research. Specific research may be conducted when applying for grants and targeted research focusing on patients who come into our ERs and/or other departments are useful in looking at population health trends.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 3 Patient education of eligibility for assistance 1. Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital's (VCRH) financial assistance staff is trained on how to qualify patients for Medicaid, SCHIP and other such income-based programs. During the patient's registration, admissions and discharge processes, VCRH attempts to identify patients who may be eligible for charity or discounted care through the charity care policy. In addition, VCRH uses a percentage of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) to determine free and discounted care.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 4 Community information The primary counties for Via Christi Hospitals in Wichita include Sedgwick. Sedgwick County has a land area of 998 square miles with an estimated 2015 population of 511,574. Sedgwick County's population includes 80.8% white, 9.5% Black, 1.4% American Indian, 4.5% Asian and 14.1% persons of Hispanic or Latino origin. The diversity of the population in Sedgwick County is greater than for the State of Kansas as a whole. It was reported by 13.9% of the Sedgwick County that a language other than English is spoken at home. When it comes to education, 89.0% of Sedgwick County residents completed high school and 29.4% had a bachelor's degrees or higher. Median household income for Sedgwick County residents between the years of 2011-2015 was $50,657. The median value of owner- occupied housing units during the same time period in Sedgwick County was $126,500. Sedgwick County reports 15.2% of its residents are below poverty level. The Statewide poverty level is around 13.0%.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 5 Promotion of community health VCRH enriches the Wichita area through a community board, open medical staff, and taking care of patients regardless of their ability to pay. Community representation is on the Governing Body. The Board of Trustees is the governing body of VCRH. The majority of its members are external members comprised of persons who reside in or around Sedgwick County and have overall responsibility for the charitable mission of the organization as set forth in its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. These trustees represent areas of expertise in healthcare, finance, education, and local government. The Board actively debates and sets policy and strategic direction for the ministry, but does not get involved in issues related to daily operations. The Board takes a balanced approach when addressing community and business/financial concerns. The Board is also the primary group for determining the use of surplus funds generated by the organization which are reinvested in the ministry in order to allow the ministry to sustain its mission and prepare for the future. Open Medical Staff - The medical staff is open with over 1,100 physicians having medical privileges at Via Christi Hospitals in Wichita, including VCRH. Approximately 300 of these physicians are employed through Via Christi Clinics. Primary care physicians are providing medical home services to Medicare and Medicaid patients, especially those with multiple chronic diseases. Community Boards/Committees VCRH staff participates in the community on boards and committees of other not-for-profit organizations, government entities, foundations, area colleges and university committees, state-wide coalitions and national healthcare related not-for-profit organizations. Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital, Inc. has representatives who regularly serve in some capacity to fulfill the missions of the following organizations located in Sedgwick County (e.g. Wichita State University's Student Athlete Scholarship Organization and Guadalupe Clinic Board). VCRH encourages participation of outside non-profit groups to use their ministries to promote their missions such as the Newman University and Wichita State University nursing students. Not-for-profit groups needing space to hold their meetings, trainings and/or routine work are encouraged to use conference room facilities for no cost at VCRH (e.g. AARP Driver Safety Program, Wheelchair Sports Board, KS Infant Death & SIDS Network, KS Instructors of the Deaf, Amputee Support Group, etc. VCRH staff present numerous educational talks during the course of the year on various topics dealing with health related issues for news media wanting to inform the public about specific illnesses, brain injuries, new mobility aids, and technology, which is improving the quality of life for many who have suffered losses due to accidents and other tragedies.
Schedule H, Part VI, Line 6 Affiliated health care system Via Christi Rehabilitation Hospital, Inc. (VCRH) is an affiliate of Via Christi Health, Inc. (VCH) and Ascension Health. VCH's affiliates are large multi-faceted, integrated, not-for-profit ministries including hospital and non-hospital ministries (physician group practices, hospital organizations, research, home health, and durable medical equipment). These ministries work together to care for patients, joined by common systems and a philosophy of serving as a healing presence with special concern for our neighbors, especially those who are vulnerable. This community benefit happens through its focus on patient care, education and research. The organizations work together to serve their communities at the local, state, and national level. Ascension Health Alliance, d/b/a Ascension (Ascension), is a Missouri nonprofit corporation formed on September 13, 2011. Ascension is the sole corporate member and parent organization of Ascension Health, a Catholic national health system consisting primarily of nonprofit corporations that own and operate local healthcare facilities, or Health Ministries, located in 23 states and the District of Columbia. Ascension is sponsored by Ascension Sponsor, a Public Juridic Person. The Participating Entities of Ascension Sponsor are the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul, St. Louise Province; the Congregation of St. Joseph; the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet; the Congregation of Alexian Brothers of the Immaculate Conception Province, Inc. - American Province; and the Sisters of the Sorrowful Mother of the Third Order of St. Francis of Assisi - US/Caribbean Province. Mission: The System directs its governance and management activities toward strong, vibrant, Catholic Health Ministries united in service and healing, and dedicates its resources to spiritually centered care which sustains and improves the health of the individuals and communities it serves. In accordance with the System's mission of service to those persons living in poverty and other vulnerable persons, each Health Ministry accepts patients regardless of their ability to pay. The System uses four categories to identify the resources utilized for the care of persons living in poverty and community benefit programs: - Traditional charity care includes the cost of services provided to persons who cannot afford healthcare because of inadequate resources and/or who are uninsured or underinsured. - Unpaid cost of public programs, excluding Medicare, represents the unpaid cost of services provided to persons covered by public programs for persons living in poverty and other vulnerable persons. - Cost of other programs for persons living in poverty and other vulnerable persons includes unreimbursed costs of programs intentionally designed to serve the persons living in poverty and other vulnerable persons of the community, including substance abusers, the homeless, victims of child abuse, and persons with acquired immune deficiency syndrome. - Community benefit consists of the unreimbursed costs of community benefit programs and services for the general community, not solely for the persons living in poverty, including health promotion and education, health clinics and screenings, and medical research. Discounts are provided to all uninsured patients, including those with the means to pay. Discounts provided to those patients who did not qualify for assistance under charity care guidelines are not included in the cost of providing care of persons living in poverty and other community benefit programs. The cost of providing care to persons living in poverty and other community benefit programs is estimated by reducing charges forgone by a factor derived from the ratio of each entity's total operating expenses to the entity's billed charges for patient care. Certain costs such as graduate medical education and certain other activities are excluded from total operating expenses for purposes of this computation.

Schedule J, Part I, Line 4b Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan Eligible executives participate in a program that provides for supplemental retirement benefits. The payment of benefits under the program, if any, is entirely dependent upon the facts and circumstances under which the executive terminates employment with the organization. Benefits under the program are funded annually based on participation and are not vested until the 5 year service requirement is reached. Due to the substantial risk of forfeiture provision, there is no guarantee that these executives will ever receive any benefit under the program. The amount funded annually under the program to the executives is reported as compensation on Form 990 Schedule J, Part II, Column B in the year funded. There were no distributions from a supplemental nonqualified retirement plan during the year. Keysop plan-frozen: Eligible executives participated in a frozen supplemental option benefit program that provides for supplemental retirement benefits that was limited to Via Christi Hospital St. Francis, Preferred Medical Associates Physicians, Mount Carmel Regional Medical Center and Via Christi Health system executives. The payment of benefits under the program, if any, was linked to the exercise date for the options or to earned dividends on the options. Executives were vested in full when the options were granted. The amount ultimately paid under the program to executives receiving net option value is reported on Form 990 Schedule J, Part II, Column F. There were no distributions from the Keysop plan during the year.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a COMPENSATION VIA CHRISTI REHABILITATION HOSPITAL, INC. USES THE POLICIES ESTABLISHED BY VIA CHRISTI HEALTH, INC. (VCH). VCH HAS ESTABLISHED A COMMON PHILOSOPHY, STRATEGY, AND PROCESS FOR EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION. THROUGH THE OVERSIGHT OF THE VCH EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION IS COMPETITIVELY POSITIONED AT ITS STATED MARKET POSITION WHEN COMPARED TO THE COMPENSATION PAID BY RELEVANT ORGANIZATIONS (COMPARABLY-SIZED HEALTH SYSTEMS, HOSPITALS, AND LONG-TERM CARE PROVIDERS). VCH RECOGNIZES ITS RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THAT ITS EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM IS APPROPRIATE IN VIEW OF ITS MISSION AND TAX-EXEMPT STATUS AND THAT ITS COMPENSATION LEVELS AND EXPENDITURES ARE REASONABLE AND NOT EXCESSIVE. TO ENSURE THESE ENDS, THE VCH EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE HAS ESTABLISHED AND APPROVED THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY FOR VCH AND ALL RELATED ENTITIES. IT WILL ALSO APPROVE ALL CHANGES IN THE COMPENSATION PACKAGE FOR VCH EXECUTIVES IN ADVANCE. ON AN ANNUAL BASIS THE COMMITTEE CONDUCTS A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF TOTAL COMPENSATION FOR ALL EXECUTIVES. IT ALSO REVIEWS AND APPROVES "OFF-CYCLE" COMPENSATION TRANSACTIONS AS NEEDED. IN THEIR REVIEW, THE COMMITTEE CONSIDERS THE FOLLOWING FACTORS: - MARKET DATA FROM INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION SURVEYS AND SOURCES THAT REFLECT COMPARABLE POSITIONS IN ORGANIZATIONS OF SIMILAR SIZE AND SCOPE; - DIFFICULTIES IN RECRUITING AND RETAINING EXECUTIVES; - SKILLS, EXPERIENCE AND PERFORMANCE HISTORY OF INDIVIDUAL EXECUTIVES; - CRITICAL BUSINESS OR STRATEGIC ISSUES THAT THE ORGANIZATION MAY FACE; AND - MARKET POSITION FOR TOTAL COMPENSATION. THE ADEQUACY, COMPETITIVENESS, AND COST OF THE VCH TOTAL EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM ARE REVIEWED ON AN ONGOING BASIS AND CHANGES ARE MADE AS THE COMMITTEE DETERMINES APPROPRIATE. THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM WILL BE MAINTAINED SUCH THAT IT WILL FALL WITHIN THE SAFE HARBOR GUIDELINES ESTABLISHED BY THE INTERMEDIATE SANCTIONS REGULATIONS. THE COMMITTEE ALSO EMPLOYS THE SERVICES OF AN INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT TO PREPARE MARKET ANALYSIS TO AID AND SUPPORT THE COMMITTEE'S ACTIONS, PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION OF MARKET TRENDS FOR BUDGET SETTING PURPOSES, REVIEW ANNUAL COMPENSATION CHANGES TO ENSURE "REASONABLENESS" AND PROVIDE ATTESTATION, AND PROVIDE CONSULTATION ON ALL EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ISSUES. THE COMMITTEE ALSO RELIES ON THIRD-PARTY VALIDATION OF PERFORMANCE MEASURES USED IN THE DETERMINATION OF COMPENSATION.
