Return Reference	Explanation
SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4	ENDOWMENT FUND PURPOSE: RRMC'S ENDOWMENTS CONSIST OF VARIOUS INDIVIDUAL FUNDS ESTABLISHED FOR A VARIETY OF PURPOSES. THE ENDOWMENT INCLUDES BOTH DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS AND FUNDS DESIGNATED BY THE GOVERNING BODY TO FUNCTION AS ENDOWMENTS (BOARD-DESIGNATED ENDOWMENT FUNDS). AS REQUIRED BY ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (GAAP), NET ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH ENDOWMENT FUNDS, INCLUDING BOARD-DESIGNATED ENDOWMENT FUNDS, ARE CLASSIFIED AND REPORTED BASED ON THE EXISTENCE OR ABSENCE OF DONOR-IMPOSED RESTRICTIONS. RRMC'S GOVERNING BODY HAS INTERPRETED THE STATE OF VERMONT PRUDENT MANAGEMENT OF INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS ACT (SPMIFA) AND, THUS, CLASSIFIES AMOUNTS IN ITS DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS AS NET ASSETS WITH DONOR RESTRICTIONS BECAUSE THOSE NET ASSETS ARE TIME RESTRICTED UNTIL THE BOARD APPROPRIATES SUCH AMOUNTS FOR EXPENDITURE. MOST OF THOSE NET ASSETS ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO PURPOSE RESTRICTIONS THAT MUST BE MET BEFORE RECLASSIFYING THOSE NET ASSETS TO NET ASSETS WITHOUT DONOR RESTRICTIONS. RRMC'S GOVERNING BODY HAS INTERPRETED SPMIFA AS NOT REQUIRING THE MAINTENANCE OF PURCHASING POWER OF THE ORIGINAL GIFT AMOUNT CONTRIBUTED TO AN ENDOWMENT FUND, UNLESS A DONOR STIPULATES TO THE CONTRARY. AS A RESULT OF THIS INTERPRETATION, WHEN VIEWING ITS DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS, RRMC CONSIDERS A FUND TO BE UNDERWATER IF THE FAIR VALUE OF THE FUND IS LESS THAN THE SUM OF (A) THE ORIGINAL VALUE OF INITIAL AND SUBSEQUENT GIFT AMOUNTS DONATED TO THE FUND AND (B) ANY ACCUMULATIONS TO THE FUND THAT ARE REQUIRED TO BE MAINTAINED IN PERPETUITY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DIRECTION OF THE APPLICABLE DONOR GIFT INSTRUMENT. RRMC HAS INTERPRETED SPMIFA TO PERMIT SPENDING FROM UNDERWATER FUNDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PRUDENT MEASURES REQUIRED UNDER THE LAW. IN ADDITION, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SPMIFA, RRMC CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING FACTORS IN MAKING A DETERMINATION TO APPROPRIATE OR ACCUMULATE DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS: 1. DURATION AND PRESERVATION OF THE FUND 2. PURPOSES OF RRMC AND THE FUND 3. GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS 4. POSSIBLE EFFECT OF INFLATION AND DEFLATION 5. EXPECTED TOTAL RETURN FROM INVESTMENT INCOME AND APPRECIATION OR DEPRECIATION OF INVESTMENTS 6. OTHER RESOURCES OF RRMC

ONE INPUT TO THIS ONGOING REVIEW IS THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT, WHICH IS CONDUCTED EVERY THREE (3) YEARS TO IDENTIFY AND PRIORITIZE THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THE HOSPITAL SERVICE AREA CONSTITUENTS. THE PROCESS TAKES INTO CONSIDERATION AVAILABLE DATA REPORTS ON HEALTH INDICATORS AND RECOMMENDED HEALTH OUTCOME METRICS, AND COMBINES THIS INFORMATION WITH INPUT FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND LEADERS. WE TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE INFLUENCE OF ENVIRONMENT, ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE, HEALTHY LIFESTYLE CHOICES, AND SOCIOECONOMIC FACTORS AND THE EFFECT THEY HAVE INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY ON HEALTH STATUS OF A COMMUNITY. TO ACHIEVE THIS, WE HAVE USED A SIX-STEP APPROACH TO CONDUCTING THIS AND OTHER NEEDS ASSESSMENTS, INCLUDING: 1. DEFINING THE COMMUNITY WE SERVE (OUR HOSPITAL SERVICE AREA); 2. CONDUCTING SECONDARY RESEARCH TO COLLECT DATA FROM OTHER SOURCES TO ANALYZE EXISTING DATA THAT RELATES TO THE HEALTH STATUS OF THE POPULATION; 3. CONDUCTING SURVEYS OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS AS CONSUMERS OF HEALTH SERVICES; 4. SOLICITING INPUT FROM COMMUNITY LEADERS; 5. REVIEW THE INFORMATION COLLECTED TO IDENTIFY THE NEEDS OF OUR COMMUNITY; 6. PRIORITIZE AND REPORT THE IDENTIFIED NEEDS AND RECOMMENDATIONS. TO OVERSEE THE WORK PERFORMED, WE COLLABORATE WITH COMMUNITY LEADERS WITH SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE OR EXPERTISE OF PUBLIC HEALTH, COMMUNITY HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES, AND TARGET POPULATIONS, TO SERVE AS AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS OF COMPLETING THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT.
