| Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b Review of form 990 by governing body | The Form 990 was prepared by the BSMH Tax Department with assistance and oversight by management. Reviews were then conducted by senior management prior to filing with the Internal Revenue Service. |

| Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a Process to establish compensation of top management official | An independent company, Gallagher, provides research, advice and guidance to the HR Committee and senior leadership to ensure the Organization's compensation programs for executives covered by the "Intermediate Sanctions Legislation" (IRC Section 4958) are aligned with its stated philosophy: Base salaries are targeted at the 50th percentile of the established comparator market; Total cash compensation (base salary plus annual incentive payments) are targeted at the 75th percentile of the established comparator market; Total direct compensation (total cash compensation plus long term incentive payments) should not exceed the 90th percentile of the established comparator market; Benefits are targeted at market median; and In aggregate, base salary, total cash compensation, total direct compensation and benefits comprise total remuneration for executives. The HR Committee ensures that executive total compensation is reflective of the Organization's stated compensation philosophy. The committee, in this process, authorizes and supports an annual three step process utilizing Gallagher's resources: 1) Salary levels, annual bonus targets/payments and long term incentive grants are compared rigorously each year with market data based on comparable positions and organizations. A. Comparable organizations are primarily not-for-profit healthcare systems with similar operating revenues. B. Incentive goals are primarily based on formally defined quantitative goals approved by the HR Committee of the RSFH Board of Directors. 2) All recommended pay decisions are tested against these data points and the organization's stated compensation philosophy. 3) A formal opinion letter is prepared by Gallagher, representing that senior executives are compensated within the reasonableness standards mandated by the IRS. This letter provides a "safe harbor" for the organization's senior leadership relative to the reasonableness of total executive compensation consistent with IRC Section 4958. |
