CERTAIN OTHER HEALTH NEEDS THAT WERE IDENTIFIED, BUT NOT SPECIFICALLY ADDRESSED IN THE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY INCLUDE: ALCOHOL AND DRUG USE, AND COMMUNITY SAFETY. THE HOSPITALS HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO FOCUS ON THESE AREAS BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THEY CAN HAVE A GREATER IMPACT ON THE PRIORITY HEALTH NEEDS. THESE OTHER HEALTH NEEDS DO NOT ALIGN WITH HOSPITAL STRATEGIC INITIATIVES AS THE HOSPITALS DO NOT HAVE EXISTING OR INFRASTRUCTURE TO EFFECTIVELY MEET THESE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS.

Form and Line Reference	Explanation
PART I, LINE 3C:	The discount amount is based on family income compared to the Federal Poverty Level ("FPL") for the current year. Patients with family income under 200% FPL will be eligible for free care for the dates of service for which an application is completed. Uninsured or under-insured patients with family income between 201% and 350% FPL will be eligible for care at a sliding scale discount. Uninsured patients whose family income exceeds 350% of the FPL will receive the SELF PAY discount.
PART I, LINE 7:	THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN PART I, LINE 7 FOLLOW THE FORM 990, SCHEDULE H INSTRUCTIONS, BY ADDRESSING ALL PATIENT SEGMENTS. THE TOTAL PERCENTAGE OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND CERTAIN OTHER COMMUNITY BENEFITS AT COST ON LINE 7 WAS CALCULATED FOR FY16 ON A UNIVERSITY-WIDE BASIS AS REQUIRED PER THE FORM 990 INSTRUCTIONS. The calculation on a hospital-only basis would result in a total percentage of 4.38%, consistent with peer organizations. This percentage does not include the impact associated with the services provided by USC to Los Angeles County and USC Medical Center. PART II, LINE 8: WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT: Keck Medicine of USC continued its efforts to engage students from local Los Angeles schools that typically enroll underserved students. Students from the Bravo Medical Magnet High School participated in a job shadowing and mentoring program. Each semester, three classes of students spend 7.5 hours a week working with staff in a variety of roles and departments. Established in 1970, USCs Med-COR Program, which stands for Medical Counseling Organizing and Recruiting, works with high school students of color to help prepare them for careers in the health professions. Students are provided structured academic enrichment in the areas of mathematics, science, and English as well as academic counseling, SAT assistance, and summer internships at local hospitals. The program serves students from four local schools: Francisco Bravo Medical Magnet High School, King-Drew Medical Magnet High School, Orthopaedic Hospital Medical Magnet High School and Van Nuys High School. Each year, the hospitals also host a Minority Outreach Enrichment day, whereby approximately a dozen directors of non-clinical fields at the hospitals shared their career paths and daily job duties with 35 students, offering mentorship and internships. Additionally, hospital leaders participated in a number of health care career awareness events to increase interest among minority and low-income youth.
PART III, LINE 2	The determination of charity care generally should be made at the time of admission, or shortly thereafter. However, events after discharge may change the ability of the patient to pay. Designation as Charity Care will only be considered after all payment sources have been exhausted. Hospital charges for patient accounts identified as Charity Care at the time of admission or service are not recognized by the facility as net revenues or net receivables. If patient accounts are identified as Charity Care subsequent to the facility recognizing the charges as revenue, an adjustment is required to classify appropriately the revenue and any bad debt expense previously recorded. PART III, LINE 3: THE ORGANIZATION IS UNABLE TO ESTIMATE THE AMOUNT OF BAD DEBT ATTRIBUTABLE TO FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INDIVIDUALS. PART III, LINE 4: NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE IS REPORTED AT ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE AMOUNTS FROM PATIENTS, THIRD PARTY PAYORS, GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS AND OTHERS IN THE PERIOD IN WHICH SERVICES ARE PROVIDED. THE MAJORITY OF THE HEALTHCARE SERVICES ARE RENDERED TO PATIENTS WITH COMMERCIAL OR MANAGED CARE INSURANCE, OR UNDER THE FEDERAL MEDICARE AND CALIFORNIA STATE MEDI-CAL PROGRAMS. REIMBURSEMENT FROM THESE VARIOUS PAYORS IS BASED ON A COMBINATION OF PROSPECTIVELY DETERMINED RATES, DISCOUNTS FROM CHARGES AND HISTORICAL COSTS. Amounts received under the Medicare program are subject to retroactive settlements based on review and final determination by program intermediaries or their agents. Provisions for contractual adjustments and retroactive settlements related to thOse payOrs are accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related services are rendered and adjusted in future periods as additional information becomes known or as final settlements are determined. allowanceS for doubtful accounts ARE based upon management's assessment of historical and expected net collections considering historical business and economic conditions. Periodically throughout the year management assesses the adequacy of the allowanceS for doubtful accounts based upon historical write-off experience. The results of this review are then used to make any modifications to the allowance for doubtful accounts.
PART III, LINE 8:	The Medicare shortfall of ($84,148,360) reported in Part III, Line 7 should be treated as a community benefit because the rates paid by Medicare do not accurately reflect the cost of care provided by the Hospitals. Accordingly, the Hospital must subsidize the cost of care provided to Medicare Beneficiaries with other revenues. THE COSTING METHODOLOGY USED TO CALCULATE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS OF CARE REPORTED ON PART III, LINE 6 WAS USING A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO.
PART III, LINE 9B:	As part of its mission, the Hospitals provide services and a broad array of benefits to the community. The Hospitals' patient acceptance policy is based on its mission statement and its community services responsibilities. Accordingly, the Hospitals accept patients in immediate need of care, regardless of their ability to pay. The Hospitals do not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as charity care based on established policies of the Hospitals. These policies define charity services as those services for which no payment is due for all or a portion of the patient's bill from the patient. See also SCHEDULE H, Part III, Line 4.
PART VI, LINE 2:	NEEDS ASSESSMENT: FOR TAX YEAR 2013, KECK HOSPITAL OF USC AND USC NORRIS CANCER HOSPITAL UNDERTOOK A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AS REQUIRED BY CALIFORNIA LAW (SB 697). THE PASSAGE OF THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT AND IRC SECTION 501(R) ALSO REQUIRES TAX-EXEMPT HOSPITALS TO CONDUCT NEEDS ASSESSMENTS AND DEVELOP COMMUNITY BENEFIT PLANS EVERY THREE YEARS. THE ASSESSMENT INCORPORATES COMPONENTS OF PRIMARY DATA COLLECTION AND SECONDARY DATA ANALYSIS THAT FOCUS ON THE HEALTH AND SOCIAL NEEDS OF THE SERVICE AREA. TARGETED INTERVIEWS WERE USED TO GATHER INFORMATION AND OPINIONS FROM PERSONS WHO REPRESENT THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED BY THE HOSPITALS. FOR THE INTERVIEWS, COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS, IDENTIFIED BY THE HOSPITALS, WERE CONTACTED AND ASKED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT. EIGHTEEN INTERVIEWS WERE COMPLETED FOR THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT IN FEBRUARY AND MARCH OF 2013. SECONDARY DATA WAS COLLECTED FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES TO PRESENT LOS ANGELES COUNTY DEMOGRAPHICS, SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC FACTORS, HEALTH ACCESS, MORTALITY, BIRTH CHARACTERISTICS, CHRONIC DISEASE, AND HEALTH BEHAVIORS. FOR THE 2013 CHNA, USC VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL COLLABORATED WITH GLENDALE ADVENTIST MEDICAL CENTER AND GLENDALE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL AND HEALTH CENTER TO WORK WITH THE CENTER FOR NONPROFIT MANAGEMENT CONSULTING TEAM IN CONDUCTING THE CHNA. DURING THE INITIAL PHASE OF THE CHNA PROCESS, COMMUNITY INPUT WAS COLLECTED DURING A FOCUS GROUP WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS, INCLUDING HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS, GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, SOCIAL SERVICE PROVIDERS, COMMUNITY RESIDENTS, LEADERS AND OTHER RELEVANT INDIVIDUALS. CONCURRENTLY, SECONDARY DATA Was COLLECTED AND COMPARED TO RELEVANT BENCHMARKS INCLUDING HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020, LOS ANGELES OR CALIFORNIA, WHEN POSSIBLE. THE DATA Was ALSO COLLECTED in SMALLER GEOGRAPHIES, WHEN POSSIBLE, TO ALLOW FOR MORE IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS AND IDENTIFICATION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH ISSUES. IN ADDITION, PREVIOUS CHNAs WERE REVIEWED TO IDENTIFY TRENDS AND ENSURE THAT PREVIOUSLY IDENTIFIED NEEDS WERE NOT OVERLOOKED.
PART VI, LINE 3:	PATIENT EDUCATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ASSISTANCE: USC HOSPITALS SHALL POST NOTICES INFORMING THE PUBLIC OF THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. THESE NOTICES WILL BE POSTED IN HIGH VOLUME INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT AREAS OF THE HOSPITALS. NOTICES SHALL ALSO BE POSTED IN THE ADMITTING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENTS. EACH HOSPITAL SHALL PROVIDE PATIENTS WITH A WRITTEN DOCUMENT THAT CONTAINS INFORMATION ABOUT AVAILABILITY OF THE HOSPITALS' DISCOUNT PAYMENT AND CHARITY CARE POLICIES, INCLUDING INFORMATION ABOUT ELIGIBILITY, AS WELL AS CONTACT INFORMATION FOR A HOSPITAL EMPLOYEE OR OFFICE FROM WHICH THE PERSON MAY OBTAIN FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THESE POLICIES. THE NOTICE SHALL ALSO BE PROVIDED TO PATIENTS WHO RECEIVE OUTPATIENT CARE AND WHO MAY BE BILLED FOR THE CARE, BUT WHO WERE NOT ADMITTED. THE NOTICE SHALL BE PROVIDED IN ENGLISH, AND IN LANGUAGES OTHER THAN ENGLISH. THE LANGUAGES TO BE PROVIDED SHALL BE DETERMINED IN A MANNER SIMILAR TO THAT REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12693.30 OF THE INSURANCE CODE (THRESHOLD LANGUAGES ARE SPANISH AND THOSE LANGUAGES SPOKEN BY 5% OF PATIENTS). DATA MAILERS SENT TO PATIENTS AS PART OF THE ROUTINE BILLING PROCESS WILL CONTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. WRITTEN CORRESPONDENCE TO THE PATIENT REQUIRED BY THIS ARTICLE SHALL ALSO BE IN THE LANGUAGE SPOKEN BY THE PATIENT, CONSISTENT WITH SECTION 12693.30 OF THE INSURANCE CODE AND APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAW. AT USC VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL, THE FAIR PRICING POLICY IS DESCRIBED TO PATIENTS AND FAMILIES UPON REGISTRATION. THE POLICY IS POSTED AND FORMS MAILED TO PATIENTS AT TIME OF INITIAL BILLING.
PART VI, LINE 4:	COMMUNITY INFORMATION: KECK HOSPITAL OF USC KECK HOSPITAL OF USC IS LOCATED EAST OF DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES ON USC'S HEALTH SCIENCES CAMPUS. THE HOSPITAL DRAWS PATIENTS REGIONALLY FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, WITH A PRIMARY SERVICE AREA OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. APPROXIMATELY 70% OF THE HOSPITAL'S PATIENTS ORIGINATE FROM L.A. COUNTY. USC NORRIS CANCER HOSPITAL USC NORRIS CANCER HOSPITAL ALSO IS LOCATED EAST OF DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES ON USC'S HEALTH SCIENCES CAMPUS. AS A RESULT OF ITS GROUND BREAKING WORK IN CANCER RESEARCH AND TREATMENT, THE HOSPITAL DRAWS PATIENTS FROM THROUGHOUT THE STATE, NATIONALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY. FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT THE PRIMARY SERVICE AREA HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, FROM WHICH APPROXIMATELY 70% OF ITS PATIENTS ORIGINATE. THE POPULATION FOR LOS ANGELES COUNTY, THE TWO HOSPITALS' PRIMARY SERVICE AREA, IS ESTIMATED AT 9,818,605 IN 2010, AN INCREASE OF 3.1% FROM 2000. FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS, THE RATE OF POPULATION GROWTH IN L.A. COUNTY HAS SLOWED WHEN COMPARED TO THE RATE OF GROWTH IN THE STATE. KECK HOSPITAL OF USC AND USC NORRIS CANCER HOSPITAL ARE LOCATED IN THE EL SERENO/HIGHLAND PARK/LINCOLN HEIGHTS MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED AREA. CHILDREN AND YOUTH, AGES 0-17 MAKE UP 24.5% OF THE POPULATION; 33.1% ARE 18-39 YEARS OF AGE; 31.5% ARE 40-64 YEARS OF AGE; AND 10.9% OF THE POPULATION ARE SENIORS, 65 YEARS OF AGE AND OLDER. THE AREA HAS HIGHER PERCENTAGES OF ADULTS (AGES 18-39) THAN FOUND IN THE STATE. MOST NOTABLY, L.A. COUNTY HAS A GREATER PERCENTAGE OF TEENS, AGES 15-19 (8.3%) THAN IN THE STATE (7.8%).

POVERTY POVERTY THRESHOLDS ARE USED FOR CALCULATING ALL OFFICIAL POVERTY POPULATION STATISTICS. THEY ARE UPDATED EACH YEAR BY THE CENSUS BUREAU. FOR 2012, THE FEDERAL POVERTY THRESHOLD FOR ONE PERSON WAS $11,170 AND FOR A FAMILY OF FOUR $23,050. THE POVERTY RATES PAINT AN IMPORTANT PICTURE OF THE POPULATION WITHIN THE HOSPITALS' PRIMARY SERVICE AREA. POVERTY RATES SHOW 15.7% OF THE POPULATION LIVING AT OR BELOW 100% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL) AND 37.6% AT 200% OF FPL. THE RATES OF POVERTY ARE HIGHER IN L.A. COUNTY THAN IN THE STATE. LANGUAGE IN THE OVERALL HOSPITALS' SERVICE AREA, A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH IS SPOKEN IN OVER HALF THE HOMES (56.4%).

EDUCATION OF THE POPULATION AGE 25 AND OVER, 24.1% HAVE LESS THAN A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. 21.4% OF THE POPULATION ARE HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES, WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH STATE COMPLETION RATES (21.5%). LACK OF EDUCATION IS A CRITICAL MARKER OF AT-RISK POPULATIONS. LOW EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT NEGATIVELY IMPACTS ON EMPLOYMENT AND INCOME, RESULTING IN INCREASED LEVELS OF POVERTY. THESE FACTORS ALSO DIRECTLY CONTRIBUTE TO HIGH RATES OF DISEASE AND POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES. USC VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL THE USC VERDUGO HILLS HOSPITAL (VHH) PROVIDES HEALTH SERVICES IN EIGHTEEN ZIP CODES, NINE CITIES OR COMMUNITIES, AND THREE SERVICE PLANNING AREAS WITHIN LOS ANGELES COUNTY.

Form 990, PART I, LINE 1 and Part III, Line 1	The central mission of the University of Southern California is the development of human beings and society as a whole through the cultivation and enrichment of the human mind and spirit. The principal means by which our mission is accomplished are teaching, research, artistic creation, professional practice, and selected forms of public service. Our first priority as faculty and staff is the education of our students, from freshmen to postdoctorals, through a broad array of academic, professional, extracurricular, and athletic programs of the first rank. The integration of liberal and professional learning is one of USC's special strengths. We strive constantly for excellence in teaching knowledge and skills to our students, while at the same time helping them to acquire wisdom and insight, love of truth and beauty, moral discernment, understanding of self, and respect and appreciation for others. Research of the highest quality by our faculty and students is fundamental to our mission. USC is one of a very small number of premier academic institutions in which research and teaching are inextricably intertwined, and on which the nation depends for a steady stream of new knowledge, art, and technology. Our faculty are not simply teachers of the works of others, but active contributors to what is taught, thought, and practiced throughout the world. USC is pluralistic, welcoming outstanding men and women of every race, creed, and background. We are a global institution in a global center, attracting more international students over the years than any other American university. And we are private, unfettered by political control, strongly committed to academic freedom, and proud of our entrepreneurial heritage. An extraordinary closeness and willingness to help one another are evident among USC students, alumni, faculty, and staff; indeed, for those within its compass the Trojan Family is a genuinely supportive community. Alumni, trustees, volunteers, and friends of USC are essential to this family tradition, providing generous financial support, participating in university governance, and assisting students at every turn. In our surrounding neighborhoods and around the globe, USC provides public leadership and public service in such diverse fields as health care, economic development, social welfare, scientific research, public policy, and the arts. We also serve the public interest by being the largest private employer in the city of Los Angeles, as well as the city's largest export industry in the private sector. USC has played a major role in the development of Southern California for more than a century and plays an increasingly important role in the development of the nation and the world. We expect to continue to play these roles for many centuries to come. Thus our planning, commitments and fiscal policies are directed toward building quality and excellence in the long term.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 11(B)	The University of Southern California's Form 990 is reviewed at several levels. The University engages an external public accounting firm to assist in the preparation and review of its Form 990 and TO sign as paid preparer. Among those who conduct the review of the final Form 990 at the University include MANAGEMENT, external counsel, and the AUDIT AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. The review of Form 990 is conducted prior to it being filed and A FINAL COPY OF THE FORM 990 IS provided to each member of the BOARD OF TRUSTEES before it is filed.
FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 12	THE UNIVERSITY HAS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST IN PROFESSIONAL AND BUSINESS PRACTICES POLICY AND PROCEDURE WHICH COVERS ALL COVERED EMPLOYEES AND THEIR CLOSE RELATIONS. A "COVERED EMPLOYEE" MEANS ALL FACULTY MEMBERS (INCLUDING PART-TIME AND VISITING FACULTY), STAFF AND OTHER EMPLOYEES (SUCH AS POSTDOCTORAL SCHOLARS), AND STUDENTS (INCLUDING POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWS AND GRADUATE STUDENTS) EMPLOYED OR OTHERWISE ENGAGED BY THE UNIVERSITY. THE POLICY CONTINUES TO APPLY TO COVERED EMPLOYEES WHILE ON SABBATICAL OR OTHER LEAVES OR ON VACATION, WHILE VISITING OTHER INSTITUTIONS, AND WHILE CONSULTING WITH EXTERNAL ENTITIES. A "CLOSE RELATION" MEANS SPOUSES, DOMESTIC PARTNERS, AND PARENTS, CHILDREN, SIBLINGS, AND EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE SPOUSES OR DOMESTIC PARTNERS. EACH COVERED EMPLOYEE OWES PROFESSIONAL LOYALTY TO THE UNIVERSITY AND MUST BE ALERT TO THE POSSIBILITY THAT OUTSIDE OBLIGATIONS, FINANCIAL INTERESTS, EMPLOYMENT, AND CERTAIN FAMILY OR INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS CAN AFFECT THAT COMMITMENT. THEREFORE, ALL COVERED EMPLOYEES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING WHETHER THEY, OR THEIR CLOSE RELATIONS, HAVE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST OR COMMITMENT COVERED BY THIS POLICY. BECAUSE NO POLICY CAN ANTICIPATE THE FULL RANGE OF OUTSIDE RELATIONSHIPS AND ACTIVITIES THAT MAY GIVE RISE TO CONFLICTS OF INTEREST OR COMMITMENT, COVERED EMPLOYEES MUST DISCLOSE ANY OUTSIDE RELATIONSHIP OR ACTIVITY THAT MAY GIVE THE APPEARANCE OF A CONFLICT AS SOON AS FEASIBLE AFTER DISCOVERY OF THE CONFLICT. THE UNIVERSITY MUST DETERMINE WHETHER A CONFLICT OF INTEREST AND/OR COMMITMENT IS MANAGEABLE BEFORE A COVERED EMPLOYEE IS ALLOWED TO UNDERTAKE THE ACTIVITY GIVING RISE TO THE CONFLICT. THE COVERED EMPLOYEE MUST COMPLY WITH ALL MEASURES PUT IN PLACE TO MANAGE, REDUCE, OR ELIMINATE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. THIS INCLUDES ANY REQUIREMENT THAT THE COVERED EMPLOYEE PROVIDE A FOLLOW-UP DISCLOSURE AT A REASONABLE TIME INTERVAL TO PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON THE STATUS OF THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST OR COMMITMENT, AND HIS OR HER COMPLIANCE WITH THE MEASURES PUT IN PLACE TO MANAGE THE CONFLICT. ALL DISCLOSURES AS WELL AS DECISIONS ON HOW TO MANAGE THE CONFLICT SHOULD BE DOCUMENTED AND MAINTAINED BY THE PERSON OR COMMITTEE TO WHOM DISCLOSURE IS MADE, AS PROVIDED FOR IN THE POLICY. THE POLICY DOES NOT PRECLUDE THE SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT, PROVOST, OR DEAN, AS APPROPRIATE, FROM REQUIRING A COVERED EMPLOYEE TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST OR COMMITMENT INFORMATION OR TO DO SO ON A MORE FREQUENT BASIS (E.G., BI-ANNUALLY). IF A COVERED EMPLOYEE HAS ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER AN OUTSIDE ACTIVITY MUST BE DISCLOSED, THE COVERED EMPLOYEE SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER SUPERVISOR OR CONTACT THE OFFICE OF COMPLIANCE FOR GUIDANCE. SUPERVISORS WHO BECOME AWARE THAT COVERED EMPLOYEES UNDER THEIR SUPERVISION HAVE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST OR COMMITMENT COVERED BY THIS POLICY ARE OBLIGATED TO ENSURE THAT THE CONFLICT IS APPROPRIATELY DISCLOSED. In addition to the procedures set forth in the universitys Conflict of Interest in Professional and Business Practices Policy, USCs Procurement Services department may identify actual or potential conflicts of interest or commitment in the course of performing its duties. In the event that Procurement Services identifies an actual or potential conflict of interest or commitment, it requires the covered employee to make a disclosure under the Conflict of Interest in Professional and Business Practices Policy, and verifies that all actual conflicts are managed before proceeding. Depending upon THE CONFLICT, Procurement Services may also refer the issue to the senior vice president for administration or his or her designee, for resolution. PURCHASING SERVICES MAY SUSPEND ANY FURTHER ACTION ON THE REQUEST THAT INITIATED THE DISCLOSURE UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE CONFLICT IS MANAGED. IN ADDITION TO THE PROCEDURES SET FORTH ABOVE, A UNIVERSITY FACULTY MEMBER OR NON-FACULTY EMPLOYEE IS REQUIRED TO OBTAIN THE PRIOR WRITTEN APPROVAL FROM THE PROVOST AND SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT FOR ACADEMIC AFFAIRS OR SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT FOR ADMINISTRATION BEFORE HE OR SHE MAY ENDORSE OR AUTHORIZE ENDORSEMENT OF ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE ON BEHALF OF THE UNIVERSITY. FAILURE TO DISCLOSE AND MANAGE ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST UNDER THIS POLICY, INCLUDING THE EXPECTATIONS DETAILED ABOVE ABOUT WHAT AN INDIVIDUAL SHOULD OR SHOULD NOT DO, MAY BE CAUSE FOR DISCIPLINARY ACTION, WHICH MAY RESULT IN DISCIPLINE, UP THROUGH AND INCLUDING TERMINATION. FOR FACULTY, SUCH ACTION SHALL OBSERVE ALL PROVISIONS OF THE POLICIES PUBLISHED IN THE FACULTY HANDBOOK. ANY DISCIPLINARY ACTION AGAINST A FACULTY MEMBER OR NON-FACULTY EMPLOYEE UNDER THIS POLICY MUST TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE SCALE OF THE OFFENSE, THE INDIVIDUAL'S INTENT, AND THE DEGREE OF WRONGDOING. THE UNIVERSITY MAINTAINS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY FOR MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. IN GENERAL, THE POLICY REQUIRES THAT A TRUSTEE MUST AVOID USING HIS OR HER POSITION FOR PERSONAL GAIN OR ADVANTAGE, OR TO OBTAIN A FAVORED STATUS FOR ANY SPECIAL GROUP, BUSINESS, OR FAMILY ENTITY WITH WHICH THE TRUSTEE IS AFFILIATED. THE POLICY APPLIES TO ALL VOTING MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. A TRUSTEE WILL CONTINUE TO BE SUBJECT TO THE POLICY FOR FIVE YEARS AFTER LEAVING THE BOARD. IF A TRUSTEE BECOMES AWARE OF A FINANCIAL INTEREST THAT MAY BE MATERIAL, HE OR SHE IS REQUIRED TO IMMEDIATELY DISCLOSE THAT FINANCIAL INTEREST TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD. SUCH DISCLOSURE IS IN ADDITION TO THE REQUIRED ANNUAL DISCLOSURES. - AFTER CONDUCTING A REASONABLE INVESTIGATION UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES, WHICH SHOULD INCLUDE AN ANALYSIS OF COMPARABLE ARRANGEMENTS OR TRANSACTIONS OR THE RECEIPT OF AN OPINION FROM AN EXPERT IN THE RELEVANT FIELD, THE BOARD SHOULD DETERMINE IN GOOD FAITH WHETHER USC COULD OBTAIN A MORE ADVANTAGEOUS FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENT OR TRANSACTION WITH REASONABLE EFFORTS FROM A PERSON OR ENTITY THAT WOULD NOT GIVE RISE TO A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. - IN ADDITION, THE BOARD SHOULD DETERMINE BY A MAJORITY VOTE OF THE DISINTERESTED MEMBERS, WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THE MATERIAL FACTS CONCERNING THE FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENT OR TRANSACTION AND THE TRUSTEE'S FINANCIAL INTEREST IN THE ARRANGEMENT OR TRANSACTION, WHETHER THE ARRANGEMENT OR TRANSACTION IS IN USC'S BEST INTEREST, FOR ITS OWN BENEFIT AND IS FAIR AND REASONABLE TO USC. THE BOARD SHOULD MAKE ITS DECISION AS TO WHETHER TO ENTER INTO THE ARRANGEMENT OR TRANSACTION IN CONFORMITY WITH SUCH DETERMINATION. - SHOULD THE BOARD APPROVE THE FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENT OR TRANSACTION IN QUESTION, THE TRUSTEE WHO HAS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST WILL BE REQUIRED TO ACT IN GOOD FAITH AND WITH FAIRNESS, AND TO REFRAIN FROM EXERTING UNDUE PRESSURE OR INFLUENCE. IN THE BOARD'S DISCRETION, IT MAY ALSO REQUIRE SUCH TRUSTEE TO BE SUBJECT TO THE OVERSIGHT OF A DISINTERESTED TRUSTEE. THIS POLICY HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE BOARD.
FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 15	THE COMPENSATION OF THE UNIVERSITY'S PRESIDENT, OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES IS DETERMINED ANNUALLY USING THE SAFE HARBOR PROCESS DESCRIBED IN TREASURY REGULATION SECTION 53.4958-6. NAMELY, A COMMITTEE OF THE UNIVERSITY'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES TAKES THE FOLLOWING THREE STEPS: (1) IT ENSURES THAT NO MEMBER OF THE COMMITTEE HAS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT BEING REVIEWED, (2) IT LOOKS TO COMPARABILITY DATA AND SPECIALIZED COMPENSATION REPORTS (AND IN SOME CASES OPINIONS) PREPARED FOR THE UNIVERSITY BY COMPENSATION CONSULTANTS WITH RESPECT TO SIMILARLY QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS IN COMPARABLE POSITIONS AT SIMILARLY SITUATED UNIVERSITIES, AND (3) IT MAINTAINS A CONTEMPORANEOUS RECORD OF ITS DELIBERATIONS AND DECISIONS.
