| Form 990, Part V, Line 1a: | The parent corporation and sole top-tier member of Adventist Health Partners, Inc. (the filing organization) is Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation (AHSSHC). AHSSHC is a Florida, not-for-profit corporation that is exempt from federal income tax under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501(c)(3). AHSSHC has established a shared service center to centralize the Accounts Payable (A/P) function for all AHSSHC subsidiary organizations. The filing organization has entered "0" in Part V, Line 1a because the filing organization no longer issues Form 1099 returns, rather, all such returns are filed by and under the name and EIN of AHSSHC as the payor subject to the information reporting requirements of Section 6041. The facts and circumstances support a position that AHSSHC, as a payor on behalf of its subsidiary organizations in a shared service environment, will have sufficient management and oversight in connection with the subsidiary organizations' payments to meet the standard set forth in Treas. Reg. Section 1.6041-1(e). AHSSHC will not merely be making payments at the direction of its subsidiary organizations. Accordingly, AHSSHC is considered the payor subject to the information reporting requirements of Section 6041. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 4 | APRIL 1, 2022 CHANGES TO BYLAWS: Prior to April 1, 2022, Adventist Health Partners, Inc. (AHP) was a covered affiliate of an affiliation comprising a regional health care delivery network operated and managed by Alexian Brothers AHS Midwest Region Health Co., a joint operating company between Alexian Brothers Health System and Adventist Midwest Health (the Joint Operating Company). The joint operating company was known as AMITA Health. In 2022, the membership of the filing organization was held by a 501(c)(3) affiliate of Adventist Midwest Health, AHS Midwest Management, Inc., through October 31, 2022, and then by Adventist Midwest Health directly beginning November 1, 2022. The membership of Adventist Midwest Health is held directly by Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc. and indirectly by Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation, both 501(c)(3) organizations. The healthcare system whose parent is Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation is known as AdventHealth. Effective April 1, 2022, Alexian Brothers Health System and Adventist Midwest Health executed a Disaffiliation Agreement (the Disaffiliation) whereby it was agreed that the joint operating company, Alexian Brothers AHS Midwest Region Health Co., would wind up its affairs and dissolve and that the parties to the original Affiliation Agreement would no longer be under the management control of the joint operating company. Accordingly, the Bylaws of the filing organization were amended effective April 1, 2022, to reflect the changes resulting from the Disaffiliation. The April 1, 2022 Bylaws were revised to effectuate the terms of the Disaffiliation Agreement. Accordingly, all relevant sections of the previous Bylaws were amended to remove all references and authorities, including reserved powers, that were granted to the Joint Operating Company and its board of directors. All references throughout the Bylaws to potential limitations imposed on actions of AHP that might result from inconsistencies with the Joint Operating Company Bylaws or Affiliation Agreement were removed. Prior to the April 1, 2022 amendment, the Bylaws provided that the appointment, retention, and removal of the President of AHP was at the discretion of the Chief Executive Officer of the Joint Operating Company subject to approval by Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation. The revisions to the Bylaws provide that the appointment, retention, and removal of the President of AHP shall be at the discretion of Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation. The Bylaws were also revised effective April 1, 2022 to update the powers reserved to the Member. The following powers reserved to the Member were added to the April 1, 2022 Bylaw revisions: 1) the authority to set limits and terms for all types of financial transactions exceeding $100,000; 2) the authority to approve or disapprove capital expenditures, the sale, donation, or other transfer of real and/or personal property, secure naming rights and direct the placement of funds and capital of the filing organization in excess of $1,000,000; 3) the authority to approve or disapprove the implementation of non-traditional, non-healthcare related activities; 4) the authority to approve or disapprove performance/quality improvement, revenue cycle and case management programs; 5) the authority to approve or disapprove the selection of the auditing firm and election of the fiscal year; 6) the authority to approve or disapprove the selection of the Hospital's group purchasing organization; 7) the authority to approve or disapprove any joint venture or partnership in which the AHP would be a member or partner; 8) the authority to approve or disapprove the IT systems and other shared services used; 9) the authority to require adherence to the system-wide naming nomenclature and service standards adopted by the Member; 10) the authority to set and enforce polices for physician compensation including commercial reasonableness and fair market value; and 11) the authority to exercise such other powers as are necessary in connection with all other listed powers. NOVEMBER 1, 2022 CHANGES TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION: Effective November 1, 2022, the Articles of Incorporation for AHP were amended to change the sole member from AHS Midwest Management, Inc. to Adventist Midwest Health. DECEMBER 29, 2022 CHANGES TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS: Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation, Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc., and Adventist Midwest Health entered into an Affiliation Agreement with The University of Chicago Medical Center (UCMC), effective December 31, 2022. UCMC is a 501(c)(3) academic health organization that operates hospitals, outpatient clinics and physician practices in the Greater Chicago area and northwest Indiana. Under the Affiliation Agreement, UCMC acquired a 51% membership interest in Adventist Midwest Health. Effective November 1, 2022, Adventist Midwest Health is the sole member of the filing organization. Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation will continue to manage the Hospital. As a result of the December 31, 2022 Affiliation Agreement with UCMC, the governing documents of the filing organization were amended. A summary of the significant changes to the governing documents follows. Changes to the Articles of Incorporation: The revised Articles of Incorporation are effective January 1, 2023. The dissolution clause of the amended Articles of Incorporation was changed to provide that the second-named transferees upon disposition (if the Member was not a 501(c)(3) organization at the time of dissolution) would be Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc. and The University of Chicago Medical Center in accordance with their respective membership interests in the filing organization's member at the time of dissolution. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 4 | Changes to the Bylaws (Continued): The revised Bylaws are effective January 1, 2023. The formation and purposes section of the revised Bylaws was amended to state that the filing organization's sole member, Adventist Midwest Health, is now affiliated with The University of Chicago Medical Center. Extensive revisions were made to the Member's Reserved Powers to provide that certain reserved powers were retained solely by the Member with certain other reserved powers subject to the approval of either The University of Chicago Medical Center, Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc., or both. The reserved powers retained solely by the Member are the following: - approve material changes in the category of services offered by the filing organization; - authority to require the filing organization's adherence to the system-wide naming nomenclature and service standards adopted by the Member; - authority to set and enforce policies for physician compensation including commercial reasonableness and fair market value; - authority to adopt rules and regulations for the management of the filing organization as deemed proper; - appointment of an individual proposed by AdventHealth to hold the office of President of the filing organization and the termination of such appointment; and - the compensation of such individual holding the office of President. The following reserved powers are retained by the Member subject to approval by The University of Chicago Medical Center: - the annual operating and capital budgets of the filing organization, all unbudgeted expenditures in excess of $1 million dollars and the financial statements of the filing organization; - the incurrence of any contractual obligation is excess of $1 million dollars; - the strategic and operating plans of the filing organization; - the selection, removal, or modification of the authority and responsibilities of accountants and auditors; - borrowings and capital leases of more than $1 million dollars; - the approval or amendment of managed care pricing, pricing strategies, and contracting parameters; and - the confession of a judgment or settlement of a claim that would exceed insurance limits. The following reserved powers are retained by the Member subject to the approval by Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc: - changes to religious affiliation and any changes in operation policies, plans, and procedures related to such religious affiliation of any facility owned by the filing organization; - termination of the individual holding the office of President if termination is related to that person's membership status in the Seventh-day Adventist Church; and - changes to the mission, vision, or values of the filing organization. The following reserved powers are retained by the Member subject to the approval of both The University of Chicago Medical Center and Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc.: - amendments to the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws - the formation of any subsidiary of the filing organization; - entering into any affiliation agreement or joint venture agreement; - the addition of new members of the filing organization; - the appointment and removal of any member of the Board of Directors; - distributions of cash and other property to the Member or otherwise; - the adoption and amendment of the quality and/or risk management plans of the filing organization; - the selection of the accrediting body of the filing organization; - the transfer of any property of the filing organization in excess of $1 million dollars; - any sale, lease, transfer, merger or consolidation of the filing organization; - the dissolution of the filing organization; - the filing of any voluntary petition in bankruptcy; - requiring any additional capital contributions from the Member; and - the appointment or removal of the Chair of the Board of Directors and any of the other Board officers. The number of members of the Board of Directors of the filing organization was changed from no less than 12 and no more than 17 members to no less than 5 members and no more than 10 members. The revised Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors shall be comprised of at least one UCMC representative. A requirement that not less than a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the filing organization be members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church was removed from the Bylaws. Under the January 1, 2023 Bylaws, the filing organization must operate in accordance with applicable tenets of the Seventh-day Adventist Church as such tenets are updated and as the Board of Directors shall determine. A qualification was added to those required for Board of Director members to not be an individual who holds an executive or ownership position at an institution which is in direct competition with the filing organization and its operations unless waived by the Member. A provision was also added to provide that any committee of the Board must include a UCMC representative if the committee has responsibilities that include quality or compliance matters. Prior to the January 1, 2023 amendments, the Officers of the filing organization included a Chairman of the Board, President and a Secretary and Treasurer and such other officers as deemed necessary by the Member. The January 1, 2023 Bylaws provide that the Officers of the filing organization shall include a President, a Secretary, a Chair of the Board and may include one or more Vice Presidents, a Treasurer, and one or more Assistant Secretaries. The President of the filing organization shall be appointed by the Member. An expanded list of the responsibilities of the President was added to the January 1, 2023 Bylaws to include the following: - Oversight of the employment process and personnel policies and practices; - Maintaining physical properties in good operating condition; - Supervising corporate business affairs; - Cooperating with the CEO's and other administrators of other entities affiliated with the Member and health care organizations owned/operated by affiliated entities of the filing organization; - Attending meetings of the Board and Committees thereof; and - Serving as the liaison officer and channel of communication for all official communications between the filing organization and the Board and Committees thereof. Duties of the Vice President were added to the Bylaws to state that the Vice President may act in the place of the President during any absence or inability to perform by the President. The Vice President is also empowered to execute all legal documents which the President could sign in the normal operations of the filing organization's day-to-day business and in transactions outside of normal operations as delegated. The revised Bylaws provide that the fiscal year of the filing organization shall end on June 30 of each year. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6 | Adventist Health Partners, Inc. (the filing organization) has one member. The sole member of the filing organization is Adventist Midwest Health, an Illinois, not-for-profit corporation that is exempt from federal income tax under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501(c)(3). |

| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7b | Prior to April 1, 2022, Adventist Health Partners, Inc. (AHP) was a covered affiliate of an affiliation comprising a regional health care delivery network operated and managed by Alexian Brothers AHS Midwest Region Health Co., a joint operating company between Alexian Brothers Health System and Adventist Midwest Health (the Joint Operating Company). The joint operating company was known as AMITA Health. In 2022, the membership of the filing organization was held by a 501(c)(3) affiliate of Adventist Midwest Health, AHS Midwest Management, Inc. through October 31, 2022, and then by Adventist Midwest Health directly beginning November 1, 2022. The membership of Adventist Midwest Health is held directly by Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc. and indirectly by Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation, both 501(c)(3) organizations. The healthcare system whose parent is Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation is known as AdventHealth. Effective April 1, 2022, Alexian Brothers Health System and Adventist Midwest Health executed a Disaffiliation Agreement (the Disaffiliation) whereby it was agreed that the joint operating company, Alexian Brothers AHS Midwest Region Health Co., would wind up its affairs and dissolve and that the parties to the original Affiliation Agreement would no longer be under the management control of the joint operating company. Accordingly, the Bylaws of the filing organization were amended effective April 1, 2022, to reflect the changes resulting from the Disaffiliation. For the period from January 1 to March 31 of 2022, certain governance powers were reserved to AHS Midwest Management, Inc. as the member of the filing organization and to Adventist Midwest Health as a member of the Joint Operating Company. The reserved powers of AHS Midwest Management, Inc. included the alteration, restatement, or repeal of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, or mission statement of the filing organization, provided that such actions were not inconsistent with the Joint Operating Company Bylaws or the Affiliation Agreement. Reserved powers also included the appointment of the filing organization's board of directors, subject to the ratification of Adventist Midwest Health and the Joint Operating Company Board of Directors. For the same time period, certain financial authorities were reserved to Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation, as sponsor, the board of directors of the Joint Operating Company, and by both members of the Joint Operating Company. Certain operational authorities were also reserved to the board of directors of the Joint Operating Company including the determination of the services to be provided by the filing organization. Beginning April 1, 2022, the Bylaws of the filing organization were amended. Upon amendment, the following reserved powers were held by AHS Midwest Management, Inc.: - to approve or disapprove senior management of the filing organization and such individuals' compensation; - to approve or disapprove any amendments to the filing organization's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; - to approve or disapprove material changes in the services offered by the filing organization; - the authority to set limits and terms for all types of financial transactions exceeding $100,000 for any single or related projects; - to approve or disapprove capital expenditures and the sale, donation, or other transfer of real or personal property in excess of $1,000,000; - to approve or disapprove operating and capital budgets and strategic plans; - the authority to require adherence to policies adopted by the Member and Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation; - the authority to secure naming rights and to direct the placement of funds and capital of the filing organization in excess of $1,000,000; - the authority to approve or disapprove the implementation of non-traditional, non-healthcare related activities; - the authority to approve or disapprove performance/quality improvement, revenue cycle and case management programs; - the authority to approve or disapprove the selection of the auditing firm and election of the fiscal year; - the authority to approve or disapprove the selection of the filing organization's group purchasing organization; - the authority to approve or disapprove any joint venture or partnership in which the AHP would be a member or partner; - the authority to approve or disapprove the IT systems and other shared services used; - the authority to require adherence to the system-wide naming nomenclature and service standards adopted by the Member; - the authority to set and enforce polices for physician compensation including commercial reasonableness and fair market value; and - the authority to exercise such other powers as are necessary in connection with all other listed powers. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b | The filing organization's current year Form 990 was reviewed by the COO and the Region CFO prior to its filing with the IRS. The review conducted by the COO and the Region CFO did not include the review of any supporting workpapers that were used in preparation of the current year Form 990, but did include a review of the entire Form 990 and all supporting schedules. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | The Conflict of Interest Policy of the filing organization applies to members of its Board of Directors and its principal officers (to be known as Interested Persons). In connection with any actual or possible conflicts of interest, any member of the Board of Directors of the filing organization or any principal officer of the filing organization (i.e. Interested Persons) must disclose the existence of any financial interest with the filing organization and must be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts concerning the financial interest/arrangement to the Board of Directors of the filing organization or to any members of a committee with board delegated powers that is considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. Subsequent to any disclosure of any financial interest/arrangement and all material facts, and after any discussion with the relevant Board member or principal officer, the remaining members of the Board of Directors or committee with board delegated powers shall discuss, analyze, and vote upon the potential financial interest/arrangement to determine if a conflict of interest exists. According to the filing organization's Conflict of Interest Policy, an Interested Person may make a presentation to the Board of Directors (or committee with board delegated powers), but after such presentation, shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement that results in a conflict of interest. Each Interested Person, as defined under the filing organization's Conflict of Interest Policy, shall annually sign a statement which affirms that such person has received a copy of the Conflict of Interest policy, has read and understands the policy, has agreed to comply with the policy, and understands that the filing organization is a charitable organization that must primarily engage in activities which accomplish one or more of its exempt purposes. The filing organization's Conflict of Interest Policy also requires that periodic reviews shall be conducted to ensure that the filing organization operates in a manner consistent with its charitable purposes. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 | The filing organization's CEO, other officers and key employee are not compensated by the filing organization. For 2022, the compensation package for these individuals was initially determined by the Joint Operating Company, Alexian Brothers-AHS Midwest Region Health Co., dba AMITA Health (AMITA Health or JOC). As discussed in our response to Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 4, the filing organization ceased to be a covered affiliate of the JOC effective April 1, 2022, due to the Disaffiliation Agreement between Alexian Brothers Health System and Adventist Midwest Health, the filing organization's 501(c)(3) sole member. Please see the discussion concerning the process followed by AMITA Health in determining 2022 executive compensation in our response to Schedule J, Line 3. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 | The filing organization is a part of the system of healthcare organizations known as AdventHealth. The audited consolidated financial statements of AdventHealth and of the AdventHealth "Obligated Group" are filed annually with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB). The "Obligated Group" is a group of AHSSHC subsidiaries that are jointly and severally liable under a Master Trust Indenture that secures debt primarily issued on a tax-exempt basis. Unaudited quarterly financial statements prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are also filed with MSRB for AdventHealth on a consolidated basis and for the grouping of AdventHealth subsidiaries comprising the "Obligated Group". The filing organization does not generally make its governing documents or conflict of interest policy available to the public. |
| Form 990 Part VII, Section A, Columns (E) & (F): | For those Board of Director members who devote less than full-time to the filing organization (based upon the average number of hours per week shown in column (B) on page 7 of the return) the compensation amounts shown in columns (E) and (F) on page 7 were provided in conjunction with that person's responsibilities and roles in serving in an executive leadership position as an employee of Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation. The CEO/CMO and VP Finance were compensated by an entity unrelated to the filing organization.
