Information about Schedule O (Form 990 or 990-EZ) and its instructions is at| Return Reference | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Schedule O Supplemental Information: | Part IV Lines 12a-12b and Part XII Lines 2a-2c: Effective March 1, 2016, Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare organizations in the SE WI region were transferred to Ascension Health. As such, all SE WI organization have been included in the consolidated Ascension audit report for the period March 1, 2016 June 30, 2016, and we have therefore answered NO, YES accordingly. Part V Line 1a and Part VII Section B Line 1-2: Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare streamlined their reporting of IRS Forms 1099-MISC so that most 1099-MISC are now reported using the FEIN number of the parent organization or of a related organization. The actual expense continues to be paid by, or transferred to, the individual entity which is normally a subsidiary or related organization to the organization(s) issuing the 1099. For this reason, the reader may notice on some 990s that there are top 5 independent contractors reported, but no 1099s are reported. Likewise on the 990s of the organization(s) reporting number of 1099s, there may be a disproportionate share of 1099s reported as compared with the actual expenses and top 5 independent contractors reported. Part VI Section A Line 6-8b: Wheaton Franciscan Home Health and Hospice, Inc. has one member which holds several reserved powers over the entity. These reserved powers include, but are not limited to, the election of members of the governing body and election of the board chair, approval of certain financial expenditures in accordance with policy, and approval of strategic plans; these approvals are based on recommendations from the governing body. Part VI Section B Lines 11a and 11b: Ministries that were affiliates of Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016 used a multiple-level review process on all IRS Forms 990 to ensure accurate and timely filing for all organizations. Under the direction of the Tax Manager, the Accounting Departments in each region prepare Forms 990, 990-T, and associated state filings. When complete, the return is first reviewed by a Senior-Level (or higher) associate in the Finance Department, who focuses on income statement and balance sheet items, and schedules where transactions of this type might be reported. If discrepancies are found, the item will be corrected prior to the next step in the review process. Once cleared through Finance, the return is provided to the Tax Department, where the Tax Manager concentrates primarily on consistency of reporting between all returns, accuracy of tax related information, and narrative explanation of any outliers. Again, any problems or questions are investigated and corrected. Depending on the level of complexity of the year in question, as well as the individual issues specific to that filing, certain returns may be selected for outside review by a public accounting firm. This decision will vary from year to year based on many factors, and sometimes outside review is not utilized at all. Also, certain schedules, such as Schedule H or Schedule J may be reviewed by committees, such as the Community Benefit Team or the Compensation Committee in selected years. The board has also asked for formal presentations on various 990 topics over the years. This decision will vary from year to year, again based on many factors. Once all levels of review have been completed, the Tax Manager (or the designated employee in the applicable region) will schedule an appointment with the signer of the 990. This is normally a Senior Vice President or CFO of the applicable region, who will perform an additional, normally high level review prior to signing the return. Once signed, the return is cleared to provide to members of the Board of Directors, who at a later date but prior to efiling, are provided access to all 990s throughout their assigned region via an online portal. Additionally, as a courtesy, any individual who is listed on any 990 as a reportable individual will also receive access to the portal, where they can view the 990 if they so choose, prior to it being filed with the IRS. Part VI Section B Lines 12a 12c: The organization has a Conflict of Interest policy which states that if at any time, an officer or a director become aware that the board may discuss or act upon any transaction or arrangement which may have any bearing of any kind upon, or may relate in any manner to, a financial interest of the individual, the financial interest must be disclosed. All associates of the organization must disclose a potential conflict of interest any time one arises. The disclosures are reviewed and a determination is made as to whether a conflict of interest exists and how it might be managed. Additionally, as part of an annual process, conflict of interest questionnaires are sent out to all Officers, Directors, and other individuals in key positions using software designed to capture this information. The responses are analyzed in order to determine information on potential conflicts, as well as information on business and family relationships and other disclosures required to be made on IRS Forms 990. Responses to these questions are reviewed by the Vice President of Compliance and the Manager of Tax Compliance, and follow up action, if any, is documented within the software. Non-responders are reminded of their outstanding disclosure requirement automatically through the software system. Responses to questions continue to be reviewed and documented throughout this time period. Approximately 1 month prior to the filing deadline of IRS Form 990, responses to date are compiled. Any response requiring disclosure is entered into the information return. The remaining non responder names are determined, and a letter, along with the actual Conflict of Interest Policy, is sent to the Chairperson of each board. The letter lists current non responders, as well as any Officer or Board member that has disclosed a financial interest that might pose a potential conflict of interest. Depending upon the nature of the financial interest and work done by the board, several actions may be considered first, the board member with a financial interest would need to voluntarily excuse him or herself from the deliberations and/or voting on such a matter. If not, the board may, if necessary, determine that the subjects financial interest was an actual conflict of interest, in which case the board member would be informed by the board Chairperson that he or she would not be allowed to vote in any such matters due to this real or perceived conflict of interest. Minutes of the board meeting would document this decision process, and reflect whatever action(s) are ultimately taken. The board chairperson is also required to discuss with non responders the repercussions of not responding, and require the board member to complete the annual conflict of interest disclosure questions before being allowed to continue in any board matters. If the board member refuses, the Chairperson has the authority to determine the appropriate action, including, but not limited to prohibiting them from participating in deliberations, preventing them from voting, and/or removing them as a board member. Part VI Section C Line 19: Ministries that were affiliates of Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016 provided upon request certain documents including our financial statements, conflict of interest policy, and governing documents that support our tax exempt status, including, but not limited to, articles of incorporation and bylaws. During fiscal 2016, all ministries were transferred to new parent organizations and all organizations are currently working on policy review and implementation in order to adopt and streamline existing policies to those of the new parent. Part VII Column B: Ministries that were affiliates of Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016 operated as a controlled group of related healthcare organizations. As such, many employees who are at the Director level or above, or who are Officers and/or Directors of organizations where Wheaton has common boards and other overlaps in committee representations, spend significant time devoted to tasks not only for the filing organization, but also for related organizations. While there is no official time study tracking that is done, it is estimated that for each employee, tasks devoted to related organizations could approximate up to 80% or more of total hours. Form 990 Part XI Line 9: FICA expense for accrued PTO balance sheet liability was adjusted, resulting in a decrease in net assets of $37,641. Additionally, effective 7/31/16 the net asset value of Wheaton Franciscan Home Health & Hospice, Inc. was transferred to Ascension Health at Home. This transfer resulted in a decrease in net assets of $6,719,897. 37,641 + 6,719,897 = 6,757,538 Disclosure Statement Related to Forms 5471: Information return of US persons with respect to certain foreign corpora |
