AH MARKED ITS FOURTH FULL YEAR AS BEING PART OF JEFFERSON. JEFFERSON FINALIZED THE MERGER WITH ARIA HEALTH, PHILADELPHIA UNIVERSITY, MAGEE REHABILITATION HOSPITAL AND KENNEDY HEALTH, NEW JERSEY, IN 2018. INTEGRATION 1.0 WAS SUCCESSFUL AND IN FY18 AND FY19 INTEGRATION 2.0 (JEFFERSON-ABINGTON-ARIA-KENNEDY) CONTINUED. THE GOALS FOR INTEGRATION ARE TO ADOPT BEST PRACTICES, REALIZE CONTRACT SAVINGS, ENHANCE PATIENT SATISFACTION AND IMPROVE EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT ACROSS THE ORGANIZATION. IN FALL 2018, AH FORMALLY LAUNCHED THE NEXT PHASE OF OUR JOURNEY TO HIGH RELIABILITY. MORE THAN 70 LEADERS WERE TRAINED IN THE PRINCIPLES OF HIGH RELIABILITY AND HAVE MET MONTHLY IN A LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM CALLED CLINICAL ACTION SUPPORT SYSTEM (CLASS). ALSO INCORPORATED WAS THE ABINGTON IMPROVEMENT MOVEMENT (AIM), WHERE DYAD LEADERS USE A MANAGEMENT SYSTEM TO HARNESS THE IDEAS OF STAFF IN IMPROVING UNITS. UNIT LEADERS HAVE ENGAGED WITH QLIK DASHBOARDS AND SCORECARDS IN A MANNER THAT CONTINUES TO GROW EACH MONTH TO SUPPORT IMPROVEMENT. DURING FY19, THE PLANS FOR A NEW OBSTETRICS TEAM MODEL FOR LABOR AND DELIVERY TOOK SHAPE AFTER MORE THAN A YEAR OF ANALYSIS. AH TRANSITIONED TO AN OBSTETRICS TEAM MODEL FOR LABOR AND DELIVERY CARE. THIS NEW MODEL CONSISTS OF A COLLABORATIVE, HIGH-QUALITY, SAFETY-FOCUSED OBSTETRICS TEAM COMPRISED OF TALENTED OBSTETRICIANS AND OB HOSPITALISTS AS WELL AS HIGHLY EXPERIENCED LABOR AND DELIVERY NURSES. THE GOAL OF THIS TRANSITION IS TO ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF CARE AMH PROVIDES TO EXPECTANT MOMS BOTH IN THE PHYSICIAN OFFICES AND IN THE HOSPITAL, AND TO INCREASE THE AVAILABILTY OF APPOINTMENTS WITH OBSTETRICIANS IN THEIR OFFICES. AH AND NEMOUR DUPONT PEDIATRICS HAVE TEAMED UP TO PROVIDE PEDIATRIC SERVICES TO INFANTS, CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS OF BUCKS AND MONTGOMERY COUNTIES. NEMOURS PEDIATRIC HOSPITALISTS PROVIDE MEDICAL CARE FOR CHILDREN STAYING IN AMHS 15-BED PEDIATRIC UNIT; PEDIATRIC CONSULTATIONS IN THE EMERGENCY TRAUMA CENTER AND CONSULTATIONS WITH SPECIALISTS AT NEMOURS/ALFRED I. DUPONT HOSPITAL FOR CHILDREN FOR PEDIATRIC PATIENTS AT AMH. IN ADDITION TO INPATIENT SERVICES, NEMOURS OPENED A SPECIALTY CARE CENTER AT AHS WILLOW GROVE CAMPUS, WHERE PEDIATRIC SPECIALISTS PROVIDE CARE IN CARDIOLOGY, DEVELOPMENTAL MEDICINE, GASTROENTEROLOGY, GENERAL SURGERY, INFECTIOUS DISEASES AND NEUROLOGY/CONCUSSION. IN FY19, THE INTERVENTIONAL PROCEDURES UNIT (IPU) AT AMH WAS TRANSFORMED INTO A MODEL UNIT, ALLOWING OTHERS TO SEE LEAN PRINCIPLES IN ACTION. QUALITIES OF A MODEL UNIT INCLUDE ACHIEVING A COMPLETE ELIMINATION OF WASTE, ALLOWING MORE RAPID IMPROVEMENT IN AN AREA OF CONCERN AND DEMONSTRATING ALL ELEMENTS OF WORLD-CLASS HEALTHCARE DELIVERY. OPIOID USE DISORDER INITIATIVES WERE INTRODUCED DUE TO THE GROWING EPIDEMIC: ENHANCED RECOVERY AFTER SURGERY (ERAS) PROJECT FOR C-SECTIONS IMPLEMENTED IN OCTOBER 2018, THE PROJECTS GOAL WAS TO REDUCE POST-OPERATIVE CONSUMPTION OF OPIOIDS DURING THE INPATIENT STAY BY 30 PERCENT. SINCE ITS IMPLEMENTATION, AMH HAS CARED FOR MORE THAN 700 MOTHERS DELIVERING BY C-SECTION WHO PARTICIPATED IN THIS PROGRAM. THE RESULTS ARE A 62 PERCENT DECREASE IN OPIOID CONSUMPTION, WHICH IS WAY ABOVE THE INTENDED GOAL. SIMILAR WORK WITH IMPRESSIVE RESULTS HAS BEEN UNDERTAKEN IN THE DEPARTMENT OF SURGERY, SPECIFICALLY WITH PATIENTS UNDERGOING LAPAROSCOPIC REMOVAL OF THE GALLBLADDER OR BARIATRIC SURGERY. WARM HAND OFF PROGRAM: ALL PATIENTS PRESENTING OPIOID USE DISORDER OR ANY SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER CAN NOW ACCESS THE WARM HAND-OFF PROGRAM AT AMH OR ANY ACCESS POINT IN AH. THROUGH THIS PROGRAM, PATIENTS ARE CONNECTED TO A CERTIFIED RECOVERY SPECIALIST AND REFERRED TO A CARE PROVIDER, A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT ADDRESSES SUBSTANCE USE AND MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS. AMH PROVIDERS PARTICIPATE IN THE STATES PRESCRIPTION DRUG MONITORING PROGRAM WHICH PROVIDES A COMPLETE PICTURE OF THEIR PATIENTS CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE PRESCRIPTION HISTORIES. PATIENT EDUCATION HAS INCLUDED THE CREATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF "MANAGING ACUTE PAIN", A PATIENT EDUCATION BROCHURE; THE LAUNCHING OF A NEW E-NEWSLETTER, "OPIOID MATTERS" IN FY19 AND THE CONTINUED EDUCATION AND PROMOTION OF DRUG TAKE BACK SITES IN THE REGION INCLUDING ONE LOCATED AT ALLIANCE PHARMACY AT AMH. THE DEPARTMENT OF NURSING, QUALITY AND OUTCOMES COUNCIL LAUNCHED THE "STOMP OUT STIGMA" CAMPAIGN, A NEW INITIATIVE AIMED AT CHANGING NEGATIVE PERCEPTIONS SURROUNDING SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER. MORE THAN 600 AH STAFF SIGNED A BANNER, PLEDGING TO REFRAIN FROM PASSING JUDEMENT OR SHOWING BIAS TOWARD PATIENTS DEALING WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER. AHS BREAST PROGRAM ADOPTED A WIRE-FREE RADAR BREAST LOCALIZATION SYSTEM THAT CAN DECREASE PATIENT DISCOMFORT AND IMPROVE PATIENT SATISFACTION FOR WOMEN UNDERGOING LUMPECTOMY. THE SAVI SCOUT SYSTEM USES A NON-RADIOACTIVE, RADAR TECHNOLOGY TO PROVIDE REAL-TIME SURGICAL GUIDANCE DURING BREAST SURGERY. HYDROGEL BARRIER FOR MEN UNDERGOING RADIATION FOR PROSTATE CANCER: MEN RECEIVING RADIATION FOR PROSTATE CANCER AT THE ASPLUNDH CANCER PAVILION NOW HAVE THE OPTION OF HAVING A HYDROGEL BARRIER IMPLANTED BEFORE TREATMENT. THE SPACE FOR HYDROGEL BARRIER ACTS AS A SPACER BETWEEN THE PROSTATE AND THE RECTUM, SIGNIFICANTLY LOWERING THE DOSE OF RADIATION THE RECTUM RECEIVES AND HAS BEEN PROVEN TO DECREASE THE RISK FOR DEVELOPING RECTAL COMPLICATIONS. MR ELASTOGRAPHY (MRE), ONE OF THE LATEST OPTIONS FOR DETECTING CHRONIC LIVER DISEASE AND CIRRHOSIS, IS NOW OFFERED AT AH WARMINSTER. MRE IS A NON-INVASIVE AND PAIN-FREE IMAGING TEST THAT MEASURES THE STIFFNESS OF THE LIVER. ABOUT HALF THE COST OF A LIVER BIOPSY, MRE CAN PROVIDE EARLIER AND SAFER DETECTION OF LIVER FIBROSIS, WHICH TRANSLATES INTO A BETTER CHANCE OF SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT.

DURING FY19, AMH AND LHC COMMUNITY HEALTH LEADERS PARTICIPATED IN A REGIONAL PROCESS FOR THE 2019-2021 CYCLE OF CHNA. AT THE REQUEST OF LOCAL NON-PROFIT HOSPITALS AND HEALTH SYSTEMS, THE PHILADELPHIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH (PDPH) AND THE HEALTH CARE IMPROVEMENT FOUNDATION (HCIF) CONVENED AN EFFORT TO COLLABORATIVELY DEVELOP THE 2019 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT (CHNA) FOR THE SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA (SEPA) REGION, WITH SPECIFIC FOCUS ON BUCKS, CHESTER, MONTGOMERY AND PHILADELPHIA COUNTIES. WHILE SOME LOCAL HOSPITALS/HEALTH SYSTEMS HAVE WORKED COLLABORATIVELY ON SOME COMPONENTS OF PREVIOUS CHNA IMPLEMENTATION PLANS, THEY PREVIOUSLY PRODUCED INDEPENDENT CHNAS. BASED ON SERVICE AREA DEFINITIONS FROM PREVIOUS CHNAS, MANY HOSPITAL/HEALTH SYSTEMS MUTUALLY SERVE RESIDENTS OF COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE SEPA REGION. IN CONTRAST TO HEALTH SYSTEMS CONDUCTING INDEPENDENT CHNAS, A COLLABORATIVE CHNA OFFERERED: INCREASED COLLABORATION AMONG LOCAL HOSPITALS/HEALTH SYSTEMS SERVING THIS REGION; REDUCED DUPLICATION OF ACTIVITIES AND COMMUNITY BURDEN FROM PARTICIPATION IN MULTIPLE COMMUNITY MEETINGS; REDUCED HOSPITAL/HEALTH SYSTEM COSTS IN CHNA REPORT DEVELOPMENT; OPPORTUNITIES FOR SHARED LEARNING; ESTABLISHMENT OF STRONG FOUNDATION FOR COORDINATED EFFORTS TO ADDRESS HIGHEST PRIORITY COMMUNITY NEEDS. THE CHNA PROCESS INCLUDED A STEERING COMMITTEE COMPRISED OF 5 LEADING ORGANIZATIONS/AGENCIES TO PROVIDE OVERSIGHT AND DIRECTION HAVING MET ONCE OR TWICE MONTHLY TO REVIEW FINDINGS AND SET PRIORITIES. THE HOSPITALS WORKED IN TANDEM WITH THE PHILADELPHIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH, THE HEALTH CARE IMPROVEMENT FOUNDATION, PHILADELPHIA ASSOCIATION OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATIONS, A QUALITATIVE TEAM AND THE CHESTER COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND MONTGOMERY COUNTY OFFICE OF PUBLIC HEALTH. DATA WAS ACQUIRED FROM LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL SOURCES AND FOCUSED ON INDICATORS THAT WERE UNIFORMLY AVAILABLE AT THE ZIP CODE LEVEL ACROSS THE REGION. PDPH PARTNERED WITH THE HEALTHSHARE EXCHANGE, THE LOCAL INFORMATION EXCHANGE, TO ANALYZE KEY HOSPITAL-BASED INDICATORS OF HEALTH. HCIF COORDINATED THE QUALITATIVE COMPONENT OF THE ASSESSMENT WHICH INCLUDED: 19 COMMUNITY MEETINGS; 9 KEY STAKEHOLDER FOCUS GROUPS; 12 KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS; ADDITIONAL KEY INFORMANT INTERVIEWS. ALL DATA WERE SYNTHESIZED BY PDPH STAFF AND A LIST OF 16 COMMUNITY HEALTH PRIORITIES WAS PRESENTED TO THE STEERING COMMITTEE.

CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION A; QUESTIONS 6 & 7	THOMAS JEFFERSON UNIVERSITY ("TJU") IS THE SOLE MEMBER OF THIS ORGANIZATION. TJU HAS THE RIGHT TO ELECT THE MEMBERS OF THIS ORGANIZATION'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND HAS CERTAIN RESERVED POWERS AS DEFINED IN THIS ORGANIZATION'S BYLAWS.
CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B; QUESTION 11B	THE ORGANIZATION IS AN AFFILIATE WITHIN JEFFERSON/JEFFERSON HEALTH; A COMPREHENSIVE PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY AND TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM ("SYSTEM"), WITH A TRIPARTITE MISSION OF EDUCATION, RESEARCH AND PATIENT CARE. THE ORGANIZATION'S FEDERAL FORM 990 WAS MADE AVAILABLE TO EACH VOTING MEMBER OF THE ORGANIZATION'S GOVERNING BODY PRIOR TO FILING OF THE FORM 990 WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE ("IRS"). AS PART OF THE TAX RETURN PREPARATION PROCESS THE ORGANIZATION HIRED A PROFESSIONAL CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING ("CPA") FIRM WITH EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE IN BOTH HEALTHCARE AND NOT FOR-PROFIT TAX RETURN PREPARATION TO PREPARE THE FEDERAL FORM 990. THE CPA FIRM'S TAX PROFESSIONALS WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE PERSONNEL AND VARIOUS OTHER INDIVIDUALS WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION AND THE SYSTEM TO OBTAIN THE INFORMATION NEEDED IN ORDER TO PREPARE A COMPLETE AND ACCURATE TAX RETURN. THE CPA FIRM PREPARED A DRAFT FEDERAL FORM 990 AND FURNISHED IT TO THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE PERSONNEL AND OTHER INDIVIDUALS FOR THEIR REVIEW. THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE PERSONNEL AND OTHER INDIVIDUALS REVIEWED THE DRAFT FEDERAL FORM 990 AND DISCUSSED QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS WITH THE CPA FIRM. REVISIONS WERE MADE TO THE DRAFT FEDERAL FORM 990 WHERE NECESSARY AND A FINAL DRAFT WAS FURNISHED BY THE CPA FIRM TO THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE PERSONNEL AND VARIOUS OTHER SYSTEM INDIVIDUALS FOR FINAL REVIEW.

CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B; QUESTION 12	THE ORGANIZATION IS AN AFFILIATE WITHIN JEFFERSON/JEFFERSON HEALTH; A COMPREHENSIVE PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY AND TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM ("SYSTEM"), WITH A TRIPARTITE MISSION OF EDUCATION, RESEARCH AND PATIENT CARE. THE SYSTEM HAS A WRITTEN CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY WITH WHICH ALL AFFILIATES REGULARLY MONITOR AND ENFORCE COMPLIANCE. THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY GOVERNS CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE AND MONITORING OF ALL VOTING MEMBERS OF THE SYSTEM'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES. THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY IS DESIGNED TO ASSIST THE ORGANIZATION IN EVALUATING ARRANGEMENTS, CONTRACTS OR TRANSACTIONS THAT MAY BENEFIT THE PRIVATE INTEREST OF A TRUSTEE, THEIR FAMILY MEMBER(S), A MEMBER OF A COMMITTEE OR SUBCOMMITTEE THAT EXERCISES BOARD-DELEGATED POWERS OF THE UNIVERSITY, OR SENIOR MANAGEMENT. THE POLICY IS INTENDED TO SUPPLEMENT BUT NOT REPLACE APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS GOVERNING NONPROFIT CHARITABLE CORPORATIONS. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY, EACH VOTING MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES MUST COMPLETE, AT LEAST ANNUALLY, THE SYSTEM'S CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE PROCESS. THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST PROCESS INCLUDES DISTRIBUTION OF AN ELECTRONIC DISCLOSURE TO ALL PERSONS WHO SERVED AS VOTING MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, MEMBERS OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND KEY EMPLOYEES DURING THE PREVIOUS FISCAL YEAR. THE DISCLOSURE FORM ELICITS INFORMATION RELATED TO THE RESPONDENTS ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL INTERESTS AND ACTIVITIES IN WHICH THEY ENGAGED DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD. THE PROCESS ALSO REQUIRES COVERED PERSONS TO DISCLOSE SUCH INFORMATION ABOUT THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS. IN ADDITION TO ATTESTING TO THE VERACITY OF INFORMATION CONTAINED WITHIN THE DISCLOSURE, THE VOTING MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES MUST CERTIFY THAT THEY WILL ABIDE BY THE SYSTEM'S CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND OTHER RELEVANT POLICIES AND WILL DISCLOSE ALL INTERESTS AND ACTIVITIES RELATED TO THEIR ONGOING SERVICE ON THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. MEMBERS OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND INDIVIDUALS IDENTIFIED AS KEY EMPLOYEES RECEIVE DISCLOSURE QUESTIONS REQUIRED OF MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. ALL PERSONS COVERED UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND EMPLOYEE-RELATED CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICIES MAINTAIN A CONTINUING OBLIGATION TO DISCLOSE ALL CHANGES IN INTERESTS, ACTIVITIES AND RELATIONSHIPS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. THE SYSTEM MAINTAINS ALL ORIGINAL DISCLOSURE FORMS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS RECORD RETENTION POLICY. THE SYSTEM ALSO COMPILES AND ISSUES A COMPREHENSIVE REPORT OF ALL ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL INTERESTS AND ACTIVITIES REPORTED DURING THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONFLICTS OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE PROCESS TO THE ORGANIZATION'S EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. THEREAFTER, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES ITSELF OR THROUGH DELEGATION TO THE AUDIT, RISK AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE, EVALUATES ALL ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST TO DETERMINE WHETHER ACTIVITIES OR ARRANGEMENTS REQUIRE MANAGEMENT, REDUCTION, OR ELIMINATION OF CERTAIN INTERESTS, ACTIVITIES OR RELATIONSHIPS. WHEN MANAGEMENT OF THE IDENTIFIED CONFLICT IS REQUIRED, THE AFFECTED PERSON(S), MEMBERS OF THE BOARDS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, AND CERTAIN MEMBERS OF EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT, RECEIVE NOTIFICATION OF THE REQUIREMENTS SET FORTH IN THE MANAGEMENT PLAN. AFFECTED PERSONS ARE EXPECTED TO ABIDE BY THE TERMS OF THE MANAGEMENT PLAN, WHICH MAY INCLUDE, BUT MAY NOT BE LIMITED TO, RECUSAL FROM DELIBERATIONS AND VOTING WHEN APPROPRIATE. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE-OUTLINED INTERNAL REPORTING AND EVALUATION OF ACTIVITIES, TRANSACTIONS AND RELATIONSHIPS, ALL REQUIRED DISCLOSURES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE'S REGULATIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS ARE REPORTED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S FEDERAL FORM 990.
CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B; QUESTION 15	THE ORGANIZATION IS AN AFFILIATE WITHIN JEFFERSON/JEFFERSON HEALTH; A COMPREHENSIVE PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY AND TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM ("SYSTEM"), WITH A TRIPARTITE MISSION OF EDUCATION, RESEARCH AND PATIENT CARE. THE ORGANIZATION IS COMMITTED TO ENSURING THAT ITS EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM ADHERES TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF REGULATORY COMPLIANCE AND BEST PRACTICES IN CORPORATE GOVERNANCE. THOMAS JEFFERSON UNIVERSITY'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES HAS A COMPENSATION AND HUMAN CAPITAL COMMITTEE ("COMMITTEE"). THE COMMITTEE HAS ADOPTED A WRITTEN EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY WHICH IT FOLLOWS WHEN IT REVIEWS AND APPROVES OF THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS OF THE SYSTEM'S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION, INCLUDING ARRANGEMENTS COVERING THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, SENIOR EXECUTIVES AND OTHER KEY EMPLOYEES (INCLUDING CLINICAL DEPARTMENT CHAIRS AND SELECT FACULTY). THE COMMITTEE MEETS MULTIPLE TIMES DURING THE YEAR AND IS COMPRISED OF INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE INDEPENDENT AND DO NOT HAVE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH REGARD TO THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS THAT FALL WITHIN ITS PURVIEW. THE COMMITTEE'S PROCESS IS DESIGNED TO SATISFY THE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS THAT IS AVAILABLE UNDER THE INTERMEDIATE SANCTIONS LAW, AND INCLUDES THE REVIEW OF COMPARABILITY DATA AND THE CONTEMPORANEOUS SUBSTANTIATION OF ITS DELIBERATIONS AND DECISIONS. THE COMMITTEE'S DECISIONS ARE MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH SYSTEM'S COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY, WHICH SUPPORTS THE OBJECTIVE OF ATTRACTING, RETAINING AND MOTIVATING TALENTED INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE THE APPROPRIATE EXPERIENCE AND SKILLS TO ACHIEVE THE INSTITUTIONS OBJECTIVES. ON AN ANNUAL BASIS THE COMMITTEE REVIEWS APPROPRIATE COMPARABILITY DATA FOR SIMILAR INSTITUTIONS THAT REFLECT THE MISSION, SCOPE AND COMPLEXITY OF THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS CONSTITUENT ENTITIES. THE COMMITTEE ENGAGES QUALIFIED, INDEPENDENT CONSULTANTS AS NEEDED TO PROVIDE ADVICE ON COMPENSATION MATTERS AND TO PREPARE THE COMPARABILITY DATA, WHICH ARE REVIEWED BY THE COMMITTEE IN ADVANCE OF MAKING ITS DECISIONS. THE COMMITTEE REVIEWS AND APPROVES COMPENSATION FOR THE PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND OTHER SENIOR EXECUTIVES BASED ON MARKET PRACTICES, AN ASSESSMENT OF PERFORMANCE AND OTHER BUSINESS JUDGMENT FACTORS. THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION INCLUDES INCENTIVE PAY, PURSUANT TO WHICH EXECUTIVES ARE REWARDED BASED ON THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE SYSTEM, ENTITY AND INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE GOALS THAT ARE ESTABLISHED IN ADVANCE OF THE PERFORMANCE PERIOD. THESE GOALS ARE LINKED TO SYSTEM'S MISSION, STRATEGIC AND OPERATING OBJECTIVES, AND HAVE PREDETERMINED WEIGHTS. AT THE END OF THE YEAR, THE COMMITTEE APPROVES THE RESULTING AWARDS BASED ON A REVIEW OF PERFORMANCE ACHIEVEMENTS RELATIVE TO THE GOALS; IN APPROPRIATE CIRCUMSTANCES, OTHER DISCRETIONARY FACTORS MAY BE CONSIDERED WHEN INCENTIVES ARE DETERMINED. THE COMMITTEE MAKES A DETERMINATION OF THE REASONABLENESS OF COMPENSATION AND MAINTAINS MINUTES THAT DOCUMENT ITS DELIBERATIONS AND DECISIONS.

CORE FORM, PART VII, SECTION A, COLUMN B	THE ORGANIZATION IS AN AFFILIATE WITHIN JEFFERSON/JEFFERSON HEALTH; A COMPREHENSIVE PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY AND TAX-EXEMPT INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM ("SYSTEM"), WITH A TRIPARTITE MISSION OF EDUCATION, RESEARCH AND PATIENT CARE.

CERTAIN BOARD OF TRUSTEE MEMBERS, KEY EMPLOYEES AND OFFICERS LISTED ON CORE FORM, PART VII AND SCHEDULE J OF THIS FORM 990 MAY HOLD SIMILAR POSITIONS WITH BOTH THIS ORGANIZATION AND OTHER AFFILIATES WITHIN THE SYSTEM. THE HOURS SHOWN ON THIS FORM 990, FOR BOARD MEMBERS WHO RECEIVE NO COMPENSATION FOR SERVICES RENDERED IN A NON-BOARD CAPACITY, REPRESENT THE ESTIMATED HOURS DEVOTED PER WEEK FOR THIS ORGANIZATION. TO THE EXTENT THESE INDIVIDUALS SERVE AS A MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF OTHER RELATED ORGANIZATIONS IN THE SYSTEM, THEIR RESPECTIVE HOURS PER WEEK PER ORGANIZATION ARE APPROXIMATELY THE SAME AS REFLECTED IN CORE FORM, PART VII OF THIS FORM 990. THE HOURS REFLECTED ON CORE FORM, PART VII OF THIS FORM 990, FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO RECEIVE COMPENSATION FOR SERVICES RENDERED IN A NON-BOARD CAPACITY, PAID OFFICERS OR KEY EMPLOYEES, REFLECT TOTAL HOURS WORKED PER WEEK ON BEHALF OF THE SYSTEM; NOT SOLELY THIS ORGANIZATION.
CORE FORM, PART X; LINES 27-29	In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-14, Not-for-Profit Entities: Presentation of Financial Statements of Not-for Profit Entities, which eliminates the requirement for not-for-profits (NFPs) to classify net assets as unrestricted, temporarily restricted and permanently restricted. Instead, NFPs are required to classify net assets as net assets with donor restrictions or without donor restrictions. Among other things, the guidance also modifies required disclosures and reporting related to net assets, investment expenses and qualitative information regarding liquidity. NFPs are also required to report all expenses by both functional and natural classification in one location. The provisions of ASU 2016-14 are effective for the Institution for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods thereafter. As such, the Institution adopted ASU 2016-14 for the year ended December 31, 2018. The effects of the adoption of ASU 2016-14 were applied retrospectively. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-14, the net asset categories have been updated as described above. Additionally, the addition of quantitative and qualitative disclosures related to the analysis of expenses by both natural and functional classifications and liquidity and availability of resources can be found in Notes 4 and 14. The adoption of ASU 2016-14 had no impact on the total net assets previously reported by the Institution as of December 31, 2017.
