990 Sch D Part V Line 4 Intended Uses of Organization's Endowment FundsThe endowment funds of Memorial Hermann Health System consist of permanent endowment funds obtained from donor initiatives for charitable contributions through last will and testament bequests. The permanent funds consist of donations and investment income for which the donor's stipulations restrict the Foundation to using only the income resulting from the investment of the donation on a total return basis. The assets of the permanent funds income may only be used to support the charitable exempt operations, programs and purposes of Memorial Hermann Hospital System through the purchase of supplies, equipment, and other expenditures necessary for the performance of those operations and programs.
990 Sch D Part X Line 2 Fin 48 Audit Fin Statement Footnote DisclosureMemorial Hermann Health System does not have an annual financial audit conducted. The financial accounts of the Health System are included in the consolidated financial statements of Memorial Hermann Health System entities and its related affiliates and are audited by an independent public accounting firm. The paragraph included in the last issued audited financial statements of the Health System was: The Health System and certain other affiliates are Texas not-for-profit corporations and have been recognized as tax-exempt pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Health System owns certain taxable subsidiaries and engages in certain activities that are unrelated to its exempt purpose and, therefore, subject to tax. Management annually reviews its tax positions and has determined that there are no material uncertain tax positions that require recognition in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The tax returns are subject to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) review for three years subsequent to the dates they are filed. The Health System has net operating losses (NOL) tax carryforwards that will expire between 2019 and 2035. Due to the age of these NOLs, and the fact that management is uncertain that the full amount of the NOLs will be realized in the future, no deferred tax asset has been recorded.

MEMORIAL HERMANN ALSO INCLUDED IN THE CHNA, FINDINGS FROM AN ELECTRONIC SURVEY DISTRIBUTED TO 550 INDIVIDUALS/ORGANIZATIONS WHO ARE MEMBERS OF THE GATEWAY TO CARE COLLABORATIVE IN HOUSTON.
990 Sch H Part V Sec B Line 11Addressing Needs Memorial Hermann Health System conducted a CHNA for each of its 11 hospitals in 2013 to prioritize health issues, to provide a foundation for the development of a community health improvement plan, and to inform each hospital's program planning. The significant needs identified in Memorial Hermann Health System's 2013 CHNA were as follows: Education and Prevention, Service Integration/Fragmented Care, Barriers to Care, Address Unhealthy Lifestyles and Behaviors, Barriers to Mental Healthcare, and Health Disparities in Specific Populations. Leadership teams associated with each of the 11 Memorial Hermann Hospitals developed an Implementation Strategy to address each priority for their community. Each hospital utilized the plan as a guide to improve the health of their community and to advance the service mission of the Memorial Hermann Health System. Priorities that were identified, and were not addressed include transportation and dental care. Both are issues in which Memorial Hermann Health System is not equipped to address on a large scale. Routinely, patients are provided with transportation vouchers and at-risk children are able to access one of three mobile dental vans which serve students at 70 schools across five school districts through Memorial Hermann's Health Centers for Schools program. Each of the 11 Memorial Hermann hospital's strategy for addressing Priority # 1: Education and Prevention included activities that would impact the interrelated chronic conditions of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and Alzheimer's through the existing infrastructure as well as exploring new programming as appropriate. In general, hospital implementation activities included : 1.) providing the community it serves with community health education through newsletters, screenings, support groups addressing cancer, heart disease and diabetes, and health fairs; 2.) implementing regular, ongoing community education courses on heart disease; 3.) developing education and coping skills programming to address Alzheimer's and Dementia patients; 4.) exploring linking community education programming with the Diabetes Self-Management Education Program designed to help people gain self-confidence in their ability to control their symptoms and improve their lives. Programs supporting Priority #1 Prevention and Education include: Support Groups (Bariatrics, Cancer, Cancer Nutrition Therapy, Cancer Prehabillitation & Wellness, Cancer Techniques for Stress Relief & Yoga, Cardiac, Diabetes, Grief, Stroke, Substance Abuse, Tobacco Cessation); Southwest ADA Awareness and Trainings; Mental Health - Grief Support; Nutrition Weight Management; Cancer Education; Cancer Nutrition Support Group; Look Good, Feel Better; Cardiac Health Education; Children's Festival; Diabetes Education; Economic Development/Council Participation or Chamber of Commerce; Education for Nurses, Nursing Students and Health Professions; Education/Outreach for Senior Citizens; Health Fairs; Heart Disease Education; Breast Cancer Education; Texana Autism Conference; Care 2 Chat; Del Webb; Women's Services; Community Health Education; Mental Health Education; Heart Disease Edcuation; Screenings (Blood Pressure, Heart, Stroke, Obesity, Skin cancer, All Other Cancers, Youth Heart Screening); Trauma Prevention: Child Passenger Safety; Safety Merit Badge Boy Scouts; AARP Driver Safety Program; Baby Fair for Expectant Parents; Blood Drive; and Meals on Wheels. In response to Priority #2 Service Integration and Fragmented Care, Memorial Hermann is currently addressing information sharing, patients' needs for medical homes, and inappropriate emergency department use through several significant programs. All 11 participating hospitals are responding to the community's concern about the lack of record sharing among providers through the Memorial Hermann Information Exchange (MHiE) which uses a secure, encrypted electronic network to integrate and house patients' digital medical records so they are easily accessible to authorized MHiE caregivers. The service is free to patients and only requires their consent. To date, 49% or 2,956,424 of Memorial Hermann patients have registered to participate. Another initiative is for all inpatient, outpatient, and emergency room progress notes to be electronic providing for up-to-date provider access anytime, anywhere. Research shows that cancer patients who receive help navigating the medical system have better outcomes. A nurse navigator specializing in oncology acts as a patient client advocate and "go-to" person when questions arise or help is needed when navigating the medical system. The nurse navigator works within the multidisciplinary cancer care team across the continuum of care, providing information and support to patients and caregivers, as well as other health care professionals. Nurse navigators also serve as moderators for the physicians who collaborate on improved care through the Tumor Board. Houston's increasing elderly population drove the need for the addition of a Palliative Care Team to provide patients with the ability to prepare for their end of life care. Palliative Care is a medical specialty designed to assist patients and families with symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, and advanced care planning. Patients without resources have access to post-acute care through the Transitional Care Unit for the Memorial Hermann Health System, receiving referrals from other hospitals to provide patients with the appropriate continuum of care. Memorial Hermann operates busy emergency rooms, many of whom are unfunded patients. A Primary Care Provider (PCP) Coordinator, an ER community health worker, and a low cost clinic are initiatives intended to respond to the community's inappropriate use of the emergency room for primary medical care and need for medical homes. A Primary Care Provider (PCP) Coordinator visits with all unassigned managed care patients in the ER and the hospital and helps them decide on a new medical home physician or clinic. The intent of this program is designation of a medical home, reduced readmissions and reduced emergency room visits for primary care. At seven ERs, a certified community health worker, or navigator, works with uninsured and underinsured emergency patients who access the emergency room for primary care purposes to connect them with "the right care, in the right place, at the right cost". The navigator works with 8-12 patients per shift and continues to follow-up with them by phone to determine if the referrals provided were effective, or if different referrals or support is necessary. To date, more than 17,000 patients have been navigated. Two Memorial Hermann Neighborhood Health Centers are located adjacent to two of Memorial Hermann's busiest ERS to serve as a medical home to patients without insurance, but capable of paying for medical care at cost. These clinics provide 1,000+ patient visits per month. Ten Health Centers for Schools' school-based clinics serve as the medical home for uninsured children at 70 Houston area schools, pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade, in five Houston Independent School District feeder patterns. In FY 2014, 9,000 students were served through 28,000 visits. Priority #3 Barriers to Care addresses: lack of coverage/financial hardship, lack of availability of primary care services, difficulty accessing primary care and preventive care for low-income residents in the community, and lack of capacity (e.g. insufficient providers/extended wait times). Each of Memorial Hermann's 11 hospitals plays a significant role in Memorial Hermann's annual more than $400 million dollar contribution to the community. This represents financial assistance and means-tested government programs, community health improvement services and community benefit operations, health professions education, subsidized health services, research, and cash and in-kind contributions for community health. To secure a payment source for uninsured and underinsured patients, each of the 11 hospitals has a financial counseling program. Counselors help patients enroll in government programs or find other sources of coverage. Specifically, the counselors assist patients with financial assistance applications, setting up payment plans or applying for charity care. The program covers both inpatients and emergency room patients, 24/7. Counselors work with eight to ten patients per day. In order to ensure specialty coverage for uninsured and underinsured populations, Memorial Hermann contracts with physicians covering a variety of specialties to provide On-Call ER Coverage 24 hours a day, seven days a week. One of the most significant on-call coverage specialties provided is that of the OB ER call group. In-house physician coverage (including evaluation and treatment, admission and on-going inpatient management services) is provided for unassigned or emergent obstetric patients and unassigned e
990 Sch H Part V Sec B Line 22dHOW THE HOSPITAL CALCULATES AMOUNTS CHARGED TO PATIENTS: 1. If an uninsured patient's Annual Gross Family Income is equal to or less than two hundred percent (200%) of the current Federal Poverty Guidelines, as set forth on the Hospital's Income Eligibility Table, the patient (or other responsible party) will not owe any portion of the account balance. 2. If an uninsured patient's Annual Gross Family Income exceeds two hundred percent (200%) of the current Federal Poverty Guidelines but does not exceed four hundred percent (400%) of the current Federal Poverty Guidelines, the patient (or other responsible party) will be responsible for paying a percentage no more than the facilities current AGB of the remaining outstanding account balances owed on their hospital bills. The percentage referenced above will be less than the Amount Generally Billed by Memorial Hermann and/or Hospital. The AGB is determined by taking claims allowed by Medicare and all private health insurers that pay claims to the hospital for the past year and calculating the average reimbursement as a percentage of total charges. 3. Medically Indigent individuals that are eligible for Financial Assistance and have outstanding account balances owed on their hospital bills (i.e., after crediting all health insurance payments, if any) which exceed twenty percent (20%) of their Annual Gross Family Income and who are unable to pay all or a portion of that remaining bill balance, and the balance is at least $5,000, will be responsible for paying no more than twenty percent (20%) of their gross family income towards the remaining outstanding account balances. 4. FAP eligible individuals will not be expected to be charged gross charges for any care that is covered by this policy. However: (i) This Hospital is not prohibited from including the amount of gross charges on a hospital bill to those who are eligible for Financial Assistance under this FAP as an explanatory item or a starting point to which various contractual allowances, discounts, or deductions may be applied, because the gross charges are not the actual amount a FAP-eligible individual is charged for any medical care covered by this policy and provided to that FAP-eligible individual; and (ii) This Hospital may charge a FAP eligible individual more for emergency or other medically necessary care than the Amounts Generally Billed to individuals who have insurance covering such care (i.e., "AGB") or gross charges for any care provided: a) At a time when the FAP-eligible individual has not submitted a complete FAP application and required documentation to the Hospital facility as of the time of the charge; and b) This Hospital has made, and continues to make, reasonable efforts to determine whether the individual is FAP-eligible, during the applicable time periods described in IRC 1.501(r)-6(c) including by correcting the amount charged if the individual is subsequently found to be FAP-eligible.

990 Sch H Part I line 6aCommunity Benefit Report MEMORIAL HERMANN HEALTH SYSTEM HAS PRODUCED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT THAT HIGHLIGHTS ALL SIGNIFICANT COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT EFFORTS. AS A HOSPITAL SYSTEM WITH MULTIPLE FACILITIES IN A MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREA, OUR EFFORTS ARE FOCUSED ON MEETING THE NEEDS OF THE GREATER COMMUNITY VERSUS INDIVIDUAL EFFORTS ASSOCIATED WITH INDIVIDUAL FACILITIES. BY FOCUSING ON FEWER, LARGER ENDEAVORS, THE LONG TERM IMPACT ON THE HOUSTON COMMUNITY'S HEALTH STATUS IS GREATER THAN WOULD BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. IN ACCORDANCE WITH TEXAS ADMINISTRATIVE CODE TITLE 25, PART 1, CHAPTER 13, SUBCHAPTER B, RULE 13.17, MEMORIAL HERMANN SUBMITS AN ANNUAL REPORT OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS PLAN TO THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF STATE HEALTH SERVICES (TDSHS) ANNUALLY. BOTH THE MEMORIAL HERMANN COMMUNTIY BENEFIT CORPORATION ANNUAL REPORT AND THE TDSHS REPORT RESIDE ON THE MEMORIAL HERMANN COMMUNITY BENEFITS WEBSITE.
990 Sch H Part I Line 7Financial Assistance and certain other Community Benefits at Cost Line 7a - Financial Assistance at cost is calculated as charity charges times CCR per worksheet 2. Line 7b - Medicaid is calculated as Medicaid charges times CCR per worksheet 2. Line 7c- Costs of other means-tested government programs is calculated as low income government charges times CCR per worksheet 2. Line 7e - Community health improvement services and community benefit operations is dollars spent with other community providers to improve the health of the community. Line 7f- Health professions education is out patient physician/paramedical teaching expenses and revenues as reported per the Medicare Cost Report. Line 7g- Subsidized health services includes the Air Ambulance Program, End Stage Renal Disease Program, and the Obstetrics and Delivery Program. The losses calculated are from the Cost Accounting System. These losses exclude Medicaid and Other indigent Programs but includes, all other services: IP, OP, ER, Private Insurance, Medicare, the Uninsured, etc. Line 7h- Research is research dollars serving the community. The amount comes directly from the Medicare Cost Report. Line 7i - Cash and in-kind contributions for community benefit is community programs not reported elsewhere, along with sponsorships of other organizations.
990 Sch H Part II Line 7Community Building Activities MEMORIAL HERMANN PROVIDED $417,114 IN PROGRAMS TO THE COMMUNITY FOR HEALTH EDUCATION AND PREVENTION FOR DISEASES AND CHRONIC CONDITIONS, SUPPORT GROUPS, NUTRITION AND FITNESS CLASSES, SCREENINGS FOR DISEASE, EDUCATION FOR CURRENT AND FUTURE HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, AND COMMUNITY EVENTS THAT PROMOTE AWARENESS OF HEALTH ISSUES TO THE PUBLIC.

Bad Debt Cost Reported on Line 2, is based on Bad Debt Charges written off during the reporting period, less any Bad Debt recoveries in the period. Net amount was extended by RCC from Wks 2- Line 11 to impute cost.
990 Sch H Part III, Sec A, Line 3Since many of our patients do not complete the Financial Assistance Application Process until they see that their debt is going to outside collectors, there is a wave of older accounts that are in our bad debt status converting to Charity. Each year we do a 2 year look back, and this has remained consistent averaging between 31-33% of accounts allowed in bad debt which do ultimately convert to Charity - Financial Assistance. For the most recent review of Fiscal Year 2013 and Fiscal Year 2014 accounts converting in FY 2015, we see that 32% represents community benefit for FY 2015.
990 Sch H Part III, Sec A, Line 4Bad Debt footnote Patient accounts receivable are reported net of estimated allowances for contractual allowances, bad debt, and other discounts. The Health System's recorded allowances for bad debt are based on expected net collections, after contractual adjustments, primarily from patients. Management routinely assesses these recorded allowances relative to changes in payor mix, cash collections, write-offs, recoveries, and market conditions. Unpaid accounts are written off as bad debts upon reaching delinquent status. Charity care accounts are written off as identified or qualified under the Health System's charity care policy. The Health System's concentration of credit risk with respect to patient accounts receivable is limited due to the variety of customers and payors. At June 30, 2015 and 2014, the allowance for bad debt was $680,776,000 and $705,976,000, respectively. Pages 9-10 in Audited Financials
990 Sch H Part III, Sec B, Line 8Section B Shortfall costing methodology Memorial Hermann Health System operates 11 licensed Hospitals of which 7 are 340-B facilities and 4 are not. When looking at the Medicare Revenue split between the 340-B and non-340-B facilities, we find that 73% of the patient revenues are generated in these safety-net facilities. Therefore, we recognize 73% of the Medicare Loss as a community benefit.
990 Sch H Part III, Sec C, Line 9bCollection Policy If there is no coverage by a third party and the responsible party cannot pay any or part of the balance due or make acceptable financial arrangements, assistance is provided to the responsible party to complete financial assistance application forms, including application for Medicaid, Crime Victims Compensation, Harris County Hospital District or County Indigent Programs where appropriate. If the patient meets predetermined financial criteria, assistance is provided to the responsible party to complete the charity application for a full or partial charity care write-off.
990 Sch H Part VI, Line 2Needs assessment EACH DECISION MADE BY MEMORIAL HERMANN TO INVEST ITS PEOPLE, RESOURCES, AND TALENTS IN COMMUNITY BENEFIT EFFORTS IS DATA DRIVEN. GIVEN THAT ROUGHLY ONE IN FOUR RESIDENTS OF THE HOUSTON AREA ARE UNINSURED, NUMEROUS COMMUNITY NEEDS ANALYSES CENTER AROUND THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH'S HOUSTON AREA HOSPITAL'S EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT USE STUDY, WHICH MEMORIAL HERMANN HAS PARTICIPATED IN SINCE 2003. THE STUDY MONITORS HOSPITAL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT USE IN HOUSTON HOSPITALS AND IS A DATA SOURCE TO UNDERSTAND PRIMARY CARE-RELATED ER USE INCLUDING THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THESE PATIENTS. THE STATE OF HEALTH OF HOUSTON/HARRIS COUNTY SPONSORED BY THE HARRIS COUNTY HEALTHCARE ALLIANCE, EPISCOPAL HEALTH FOUNDATION AND OTHER PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCIES IS ANOTHER SOURCE PROVIDING AN ASSESSMENT OF THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. IN ADDITION TO THE STUDIES GENERATED ON A COMMUNITY LEVEL, AS REQUIRED BY THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT-SECTION 501c(3)-REQUIREMENT OF THE ACA, EVERY THREE YEARS, MEMORIAL HERMANN CONDUCTS COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS FOR EACH OF ITS LICENSED HOSPITALS. THE STUDIES INCLUDE DEMOGRAPHIC DATA OF HARRIS, FORT BEND, MONTGOMERY, AND BRAZORIA COUNTIES (COUNTIES THAT COMPOSE 89% OF MEMORIAL HERMANN DISCHARGES; A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESSES AND METHODLOLOGIES, SURVEYS AND INTERVIEWS WITH PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS WHERE PARTICIPANTS WERE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRIORITIZE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS AND RATE THE IMPORTANCE OF HEALTH CARE INITIATIVES; AND, IDENTIFY ALL COLLABORATING ORGANIZATIONS AND EXISTING HEALTH CARE FACILITIES AND OTHER RESOURCES WITHIN THE COMMUNITY AVAILABLE TO MEET THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN EACH OF THE COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS. THE ANALYSIS INCLUDED A CAREFUL REVIEW OF THE MOST CURRENT HEALTH DATA AVAILABLE AND INPUT FROM NUMEROUS COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES WITH SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE OF PUBLIC HEALTH. FINDINGS INDICATED THAT THERE WERE EIGHT MAIN NEEDS IN THE COMMUNITIES SERVED BY MEMORIAL HERMANN. THE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT TEAM, CONSISTING OF LEADERSHIP FROM MEMORIAL HERMANN HEALTH SYSTEM (MEMORIAL HERMANN), PRIORITIZED THOSE EIGHT NEEDS BY STUDYING THEM WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE HOSPITAL'S OVERALL STRATEGIC PLAN AND THE AVAILABILITY OF FINITE RESOURCES, WITH THE FOLLOWING PRIORITIZATION, IN DESCENDING ORDER, RESULTING: 1.) EDUCATION AND PREVENTION FOR DISEASES AND CHRONIC CONDITIONS; 2.) ADDRESS ISSUES WITH SERVICE INTEGRATION, SUCH AS COORDINATION AMONG PROVIDERS AND THE FRAGMENTED CONTINUUM OF CARE; 3.) ADDRESS BARRIERS TO PRIMARY CARE, SUCH AS AFFORDABILITY AND SHORTAGE OF PROVIDERS; 4.) ADDRESS UNHEALTHY LIFESTYLES AND BEHAVIORS; 5.) ADDRESS BARRIERS TO MENTAL HEALTHCARE, SUCH AS ACCESS TO SERVICES AND SHORTAGE OF PROVIDERS; 6.) DECREASE HEALTH DISPARITIES BY TARGETING SPECIFIC POPULATIONS; 7.) INCREASE ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE DENTAL CARE; 8.) INCREASE ACCESS TO TRANSPORTATION. FOLLOWING THE COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT, EACH MEMORIAL HERMANN HOSPITAL ALONG WITH THE SUPPORT OF MEMORIAL HERMANN COMMUNITY BENEFIT DEPARTMENT DEVELOPED AN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN WITH SUPPORTING OBJECTIVES, AND IMPLEMENTATION ACTIVITIES AND METRICS. THE PROCESS WAS REPORTED TO THE BOARD IN MARCH 2014 AND RESIDES ON EACH HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE. IMPLEMENTATION PLAN ARE UPDATED ON A QUARTERLY BASIS. PREPARATIONS ARE UNDERWAY FOR A 2016 COMMUNITY NEEDS HEALTH ASSESSMENT AND STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN.

Once someone requests or a financial counselor has determined through interaction with the patient and/or guarantor that the patient cannot pay for services, the financial counselors will either screen themselves or the patient/guarantor is referred to the Eligibility vendor on-site to screen for any Federal/State/Local Government program which may cover their services. These vendors act as agents for the patient/guarantor and may at times go to hearings for Medicaid or Disability as a legal representative of the patient. Also, all our entities, including service lines, have posted notices of a patient's right to request charity. Our statements that are sent to patients have documentation on the back informing the patient of Memorial Hermann's Charity policy and their right to request such, (in English and Spanish). Accounts are referred to be processed either on a real time basis by the hospital staff while the patient is still in the hospital or by electronic referral via data download which occur weekly and after the patient has been discharged. The goal is to make contact with the patient for financial screening to determine eligibility for governmental assistance as soon as possible. TIRR Memorial Hermann has embedded case managers and social workers in the hospital-based physician clinic to help patients with their doctors and needs. TIRR Memorial Hermann inpatients and outpatients require a great deal of assistance with a wide range of resources, and case management plays a significant role in providing supportive services to each patient. Social workers provide not only case management, but behavioral counseling as well. If needed, social workers can refer patients to TIRR Memorial Hermann's psychiatrist. Counseling services are available to families as well as to patients. Assistance for Memorial Hermann ER patients to take advantage of Communit resources for primary care outside the emergency rooms are through Memorial Hermann's navigation services. In 2008, Memorial Hermann launched the ER Navigation program and Today,the ER Navigation program places Community Health Workers (CHWs) or "navigators" on-site in seven Memorial Hermann's emergency rooms to educate patients on the importance of identifying and using a consistent health home rather than relying on emergency rooms for their primary care. Patients eligible for the program are 18 months to age 65 who have accessed the ER for primary care related condition and are uninsured or on Medicaid. They provide patients with clinic referrals,make appointments, arrange transportation, share information and referrals to community and safety net programs, educate about qualifying for and using public benefits and other payment resources, serve as a liaison between the patient and providers and tackle other challenges to appropriate care. CHWs stress the importance of having a health home and provide support and guidance in making and keeping future health appointments. While navigators initially meet with patients during the ER visit, much of their work is done in follow-up, ensuring that a clinic appointment was made, was successful and assisting with the paperwork required for qualification for Medicaid, CHIP or county indigent programs. Similar support is through the COPE (Community Outreach for Personal Empowerment) Program which provides empowering services for uninsured patients to improve their health and well being through education about and coordination with community health services. COPE targets patients who are at the highest rate of declining health and recidivism. Enrolling these populations into public benefits through all of these venues automatically increases their likelihood of obtaining regular primary and preventative care; the kind of care that ensures health and the potential for a prosperous future while concurrently eliminating the cost burden presently experienced by safety-net providers.
990 Sch H Part VI, Line 4Community Information MEMORIAL HERMANN SERVES "GREATER HOUSTON," A MULTI-COUNTY AREA ALONG THE GULF COAST IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS-WHERE SEVERAL COUNTIES ARE WITHOUT HOSPITAL DISTRICT SERVICES. THE 5TH LARGEST METROPOLITAN AREA IN THE UNITED STATES, GREATER HOUSTON IS ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING WITH A POPULATION OF 6 MILLION. THE INCREASE IN POPULATION OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS HAS PLACED A TREMENDOUS BURDEN ON EXISTING PUBLIC HEALTH, SOCIAL, AND HEALTH CARE INFRASTRUFCTURE. A SOURCE OF STRENGTH IN A GLOBAL ECONOMY, HOUSTON PRIZES ITS RACIAL AND ETHNIC DIVERSITY. ACCORDING TO U.S. CENSUS, ACS FIVE YEAR ESTIMATES, HOUSTON IS 25.8% WHITE, 43.6% HISPANIC, 23.0% BLACK OR AFRICAN AMERICAN, 6.2% ASIAN/PACIFIC ISLANDER AND 1.4% OTHER. 46.3% OF THE HOUSTON POPULATION SPEAKS LANGUAGES OTHER THAN ENGLISH AT HOME. 28.3% OF THE POPULATION IS FOREIGN BORN. ALTHOUGH THERE IS ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY FOR MANY RESIDENTS, THERE ARE POCKETS OF POVERTY. MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME IS $45,010. 15% OF HARRIS COUNTY RESIDENTS ARE LIVING BELOW THE POVERTY LINE. 18% OF CHIILDREN AND 26.3% OF THE TOTAL HARRIS COUNTY POPULATION ARE FOOD INSECURE. THE GREATER HOUSTON AREA IS ONE OF THE HARDEST HIT AREAS IN THE "UNINSURED" HEALTHCARE CRISIS WITH A QUARTER OF HARRIS COUNTY RESIDENTS UNINSURED. THE RISING RATE OF OBESITY IS THE SINGLE BIGGEST THREAT TO THE GREATER HOUSTON AREA-MORE THAN ONE IN FOUR GREATER HOUSTON RESIDENTS IS OBESE. OBESTIY AND CONCERNS RELATED TO MAINTAINING A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE ARE CHALLENGES WITH RESIDENTS FACING BARRIERS RANGING FROM LACK OF TIME TO CULTURAL ISSUES INVOLVING CULTURAL NORMS TO STRUCTURAL CHALLENGES SUCH AS LIVING IN A FOOD DESERT OR HAVING LIMITED ACCESS TO SIDEWALKS, RECREATIONAL FACILITIES, OR AFFORFDABLE FRUTIS AND VEGETABLES. HEALTH EDUCATION AND PREVENTION AND INCREASED ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE ARE VITAL TO IMPROVING THE OVERALL HEALTH OF RESIDENTS WHOSE LEADING CAUSES OF HEALTH ISSUES ARE MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS, DIABETES, OBESITY (ADULT), OBESITY (CHILDREN), SUBSTANCE ABUSE, HEART DISEASE/STROKE, CANCER AND HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. THE MOST PREVALENT CHRONIC DISEASES ARE DIABETES, OBESITY, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, CANCER, HEART FAILURE AND ASTHMA. ONLY 28.4% OF THE HARRIS COUNTY POPULATION, AGE 25+, HAS A COLLEGE DEGREE. SO VITAL TO THE WELL-BEING OF INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES, THE HOUSTON AREA'S UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IS RELATIVELY LOW AT 5.4 % AND THE HOUSTON AREA ENJOYS A LOW COST OF LIVING.
990 Sch H Part VI, Line 5Promotion of Community Health ON BEHALF OF MEMORIAL HERMANN HEALTH SYSTEM, THE MEMORIAL HERMANN COMMUNITY BENEFIT CORPORATION (MHCBC) WORKS WITH OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, BUSINESS LEADERS AND COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS TO ENSURE THAT ALL RESIDENTS OF THE GREATER HOUSTON AREA HAVE ACCESS TO THE CARE THEY NEED TO IMPROVE THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE AND THE OVERALL HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. MHCBC'S PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE CARE FOR UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED CHILDREN; TO REACH THOSE HOUSTONIANS NEEDING LOW COST CARE; TO SUPPORT THE EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE OF NON-PROFIT CLINICS AND FQHCS; TO EDUCATE INDIVIDUALS AND THEIR FAMILIES ON HOW TO ACCESS THE HEALTHCARE AVAILABLE TO THEM; AND TO PROMOTE A CULTURE OF HEALTH THROUGH HEALTH INITIATIVES DESIGNED TO REDUCE OBESITY, IMPROVE HEALTH AND REDUCE CHRONIC CONDITIONS. COMMITTED TO MAKING THE GREATER HOUSTON AREA A HEALTHIER AND MORE VITAL PLACE TO LIVE, MHCBC SUPPORTS THE FOLLOWING INITIATIVES: TEN MEMORIAL HERMANN HEALTH CENTERS FOR SCHOOLS, ESTABLISHED IN 1996, OFFER ACCESS TO PRIMARY MEDICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES TO UNDERSERVED CHILDREN AT 70 SCHOOLS IN THE GREATER HOUSTON AREA. DATA DRIVEN, IN 2015, STUDENTS' ASTHMA EXACERBATIONS, EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS AND HOSPITALIZATIONS WERE REDUCED BY 92.2%. STUDENTS RECEIVING COUNSELING SERVICES REALIZED INCREASED GRADE POINT AVERAGES, DECREASED ABSENTEEISM, AND REDUCED SUSPENSIONS/DETENTIONS. THE MEMORIAL HERMANN MOBILE DENTAL CLINIC, ESTABLISHED IN 2000, HAS THREE DENTAL VANS AND PROVIDES ACCESS TO PREVENTATIVE AND RESTORATIVE DENTAL SERVICES AT NINE HEALTH CENTERS FOR SCHOOLS' SITES AND IS ACCESSIBLE AS A "DENTAL HOME" FOR UNINSURED STUDENTS. IN 2015, NO MORE THAN 6.3% OF STUDENTS AGE 4-11 AND 7.6% OF STUDENTS AGE 12+ EXPERIENCED CARIES AT RECALL, AS OPPOSED TO THE HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020 OBJECTIVES OF 49% AND 48%, RESPECTIVELY. TWO DIETITIANS ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE HEALTHY EATING AND LIFESTYLES PROGRAM (HELP) DESIGNED TO EDUCATE HEALTH CENTERS FOR SCHOOLS' STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES ON THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER NUTRITION AND EXERCISE. THE PROGRAM IS INTENSIVE AND INDIVIDUAL, MEETING THE STUDENT AND FAMILY WHERE THEY ARE ON THE "STAGE OF CHANGE" CONTINUUM. IN 2015, 11,000 STUDENTS WERE SERVED IN 33,000 MEDICAL CARE, DENTAL CARE, MENTAL HEALTH AND NUTRITION VISITS. SERVING THE COMMUNITY SINCE 2008, THE MEMORIAL HERMANN ER NAVIGATION PROGRAM PLACES CERTIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS WHO HAVE THE TRAINING, CULTURAL UNDERSTANDING AND LINGUISTIC CAPACITY TO HELP THE UNINSURED, WHO DISPROPORTIONATELY USE EMERGENCY ROOMS FOR HEALTHCARE, 'NAVIGATE' THE COMPLEX HEALTH SYSTEM, OBTAIN A MEDICAL HOME, SCHEDULE APPOINTMENTS, SECURE NEEDED SOCIAL SERVICES AND COPE WITH FUTURE HEALTHCARE CONCERNS. A SIX MONTH PRE-POST ANALYSIS OF NAVIGATED PATIENTS RESULTED IN A 77% DECLINE IN ER VISITS. A 12 MONTH PRE-POST ANALYSIS RESULTED IN A 70% DECLINE. MEMORIAL HERMANN NEIGHBORHOOD HEALTH CENTERS ARE STRATEGICALLY LOCATED NEAR TWO OF HOUSTON'S BUSIEST ERS, ARE OPEN EXTENDED HOURS AND SERVE AS A MEDICAL HOME TO UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED WORKING FAMILIES. THE GOAL IS TO PROVIDE THIS POPULATION WITH THE PROVISION OF PREVENTIVE, ACUTE, AND CHRONIC CARE. THEY ARE AN AFFORDABLE MEDICAL HOME WHERE INDIVIDUALS CAN DECREASE THEIR HYPERTENSION, MANAGE THEIR DIABETES, AND WHERE WOMEN FEEL COMFORTABLE RETURNING FOR THEIR ANNUAL WELL-WOMAN EXAMS. PHYSICIANS OF SUGAR CREEK, IS A MEMORIAL FAMILY PRACTICE RESIDENCY TRAINING SITE THAT OFFERS SLIDING SCALE FEES TO THE AREA'S WORKING POOR. MEMORIAL HERMANN MEDICAL MISSIONS EXISTS TO FINANCE, FACILITATE, AND ENCOURAGE PHYSICIAN LED TEAMS INTO THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES. IT FINANCES BY PROVIDING SUPPLIES, PHARMACEUTICALS, AND SCHOLARSHIPS FOR NON-PHYSICIAN TEAM MEMBERS IT FACILITATES BY LINKING PHYSICIANS AND SUPPORT TEAMS TOGETHER; ADVISING ON PASSPORTS, VACCINATIONS, AIR TRAVEL; AND COORDINATING NECESSARY SUPPLIES. IT ENCOURAGES BY SHARING THE KNOWLEDGE OF PAST EXPERIENCES; COMMUNICATING WHAT A MEDICAL MISSION MEANS TO A POVERTY OR DISASTER STRICKEN AREA; AND COACHING ON SAFETY PRACTICES SO THAT PARTICIPANTS FEEL COMFORTABLE IN THEIR NEW SURROUNDINGS. IN 2015, APPROXIMATELY 48,000 PEOPLE FROM 22 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES WERE ASSISTED THROUGH 51 MISSIONS. MEMORIAL HERMANN MATCHES THE PROCEEDS OF AN ANNUAL GOLF TOURNAMENT TO SUPPORT THIS GLOBAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT EFFORT. SEVERAL NEW MEMORIAL HERMANN INITIATIVES ARE UNDER THE STATE OF TEXAS' MEDICAID 1115 WAIVER - TEXAS HEALTH CARE TRANSFORMATION AND QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM COLLABORATIVE. THE PSYCHIATRIC RESPONSE CASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM WAS INTRODUCED TO ADDRESS THE GAP IN THE MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL CARE SERVICES BY CONNECTING PATIENTS TO OUTPATIENT TREATMENT AND OTHER COMMUNITY RESOURCES. THE INITIATIVE WAS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE INTENSIVE, COMMUNITY-BASED CASE MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR THOSE WITH BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DIAGNOSIS AND A HISTORY OF MULTIPLE HOSPITALIZATIONS. UNDER THIS PROGRAM, PATIENTS ARE ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR OWN MENTAL HEALTH CARE PLAN AND LONG-TERM RECOVERY GOALS WITH THE ULTIMATE OBJECTIVE OF IMPROVED PATIENT WELLNESS AND GOAL ACHIEVEMENT. THE CASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM WORKS CLOSELY WITH MEMORIAL HERMANN'S PSYCHIATRIC RESPONSE TEAM, IN WHICH MENTAL HEALTH CLINICIANS EVALUATE, STABILIZE, ARRANGE FOR TRANSFERS AND DEVELOP AFTERCARE PLANS FOR PATIENTS IN EMERGENCY ROOM AND MEDICAL INPATIENT SETTINGS. THE PSYCHIATRIC RESPONSE TEAM REFERS PATIENTS TO MORE THAN 200 MENTAL HEALTH COMMUNITY TREATMENT PROVIDERS WITHIN HARRIS, FORT BEND AND MONTGOMERY COUNTIES. THIS LARGE REFERRAL NETWORK ALLOWS THE PROGRAM TO LEVERAGE THE PATIENTS WITH INSURANCE TO OBTAIN CARE FOR THOSE WITHOUT. THIS NETWORK ALSO ELIMINATES A SINGLE FACILITY FROM COMPETING WITH ALL LOCAL EMERGENCY CENTERS FOR LIMITED PSYCHIATRIC RESOURCES. ANOTHER MEMORIAL HERMANN 1115 WAIVER PROGRAM IS THE MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS CLINICS, CREATED IN RESPONSE TO THE SIGNIFICANT GAP IN MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES IN HARRIS AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES. MEMORIAL HERMANN CREATED MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS CLINICS THAT PROVIDE RAPID ACCESS TO INITIAL PSYCHIATRIC TREATMENT AND OUTPATIENT MULTI-DISCIPLINARY SERVICES FOR PATIENTS WITH NO IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH CARE. THE GOAL IS TO KEEP INDIVIDUALS HEALTHY AND SAFE, DEVELOP PROCESSES AND INTERVENTIONS TO MANAGE CHALLENGING BEHAVIORS, AND REDUCE IMPROPER HOSPITALIZATION OR POSSIBLE INCARCERATION. THE NURSE HEALTH LINE WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2014 AS A FREE TELEPHONE SERVICE FOR GREATER HOUSTON RESIDENTS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING A HEALTH CONCERN AND ARE UNSURE OF WHAT TO DO OR WHERE TO GO. EXPERIENCED, BILINGUAL NURSES USE THEIR TRAINING AND EXPERTISE TO CONDUCT ASSESSMENTS BY PHONE, AND ARE AVAILABLE TO ANSWER CALLS 24 HOURS A DAY, SEVEN DAYS A WEEK FOR ANY RESIDENT LIVING IN HARRIS OR SURROUNDING COUNTIES. THEY HELP CALLERS DECIDE WHEN AND WHERE TO GO FOR MEDICAL CARE AND ASSIST WITH SOCIAL SERVICE REFERRALS AND TRANSPORTATION NEEDS. CALLERS RECEIVE HEALTHCARE ADVICE AND EDUCATION USING NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED STANDARDIZED PROTOCOLS. DOCUMENTED OUTCOMES INCLUDE: 5,000 CALLS PER MONTH; 67% OF TRIAGED CALLERS WERE DIRECTED TO PRIMARY CARE SETTINGS AS COMPARED TO 33% TO THE ER; 96% were REFERRED TO PRIMARY CARE SETTINGS; 895 OF CALLERS FOLLOWED THE CARE ADVICE OF THE NURSE; AND, 99% OF CALLERS WOULD USE THE SERVICE AGAIN. MEMORIAL HERMANN HEALTH SYSTEM'S COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS INCLUDE: HEALTH RELATED ORGANIZATIONS, RESEARCH AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTES, BUSINESSES, NONPROFITS, AND GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS TO IDENTIFY, TO RAISE AWARENESS AND TO MEET COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS. A FEW OF THE PARTNERSHIPS FOLLOW: MEMORIAL HERMANN SUPPORTS CANCARE OF HOUSTON, A ONE-ON-ONE HOSPITAL VISITATION PROGRAM THAT IS STAFFED BY VOLUNTEERS WHOSE MISSION IS TO SUPPORT PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES AND TO CREATE HOPE AND POSIVITY WHERE THERE IS NONE SO THAT NO ONE SUFFERS ALONE.

FOR MORE THAN 19 YEARS, MEMORIAL HERMANN HAS PROVIDED FREE LINEN SERVICES FOR COVENANT HOUSE, A CHILD CARE AGENCY THAT PROVIDES EMERGENCY SHELTER, COUNSELING, VOCATIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL SERVICES, HEALTH CARE AND LEGAL INFORMATION TO HOMELESS AND RUNAWAY YOUTH AT NO COST. MEMORIAL HERMANN SUPPORTS THE EXPENSES OF THE ANNUAL DINNER FOR E.C.H.O. (EPIPHANY COMMUNITY HEALTH OUTREACH), A SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCY THAT PROVIDES HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES TO NEW IMMIGRANTS AND REFUGEES, PRIMARILY LIVING IN THE SOUTHWEST AREA. SINCE 2003 MEMORIAL HERMANN HAS BEEN A SPONSOR AND PARTICIPANT IN THE COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISIT DATA IN HARRIS COUNTY HOSPITALS. THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY IS TO MONITOR TRENDS IN PRIMARY CARE-RELATED ER USE AND UNDERSTAND THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PATIENTS WHO USE ERS FOR PRIMARY CARE PURPOSES. EMERGENCY ROOMS HAVE BECOME MAJOR PROVIDERS OF PRIMARY CARE, PARTICULARLY FOR LOW-IN

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Corporate Conflict of Interest PolicyMemorial Hermann Health System utilizes conflict of interest surveys and has codified its procedure in a policy. The policy is monitored by our Corporate Compliance Department through annual surveys of board members, corporate officers, management level employees, and other selected employees, physicians and vendors for all of its entities and related affiliates. In addition to responding to the survey, each recipient affirms that they have received a copy of the policy, has read and understood it, has agreed to comply with it, and understands that Memorial Hermann is a charitable organization that must engage in primarily tax-exempt purpose activities. The Corporate Compliance Department, Chief Legal Officer and the Corporate Audit Committee, consisting of independent board members, receive a report of all items disclosed. The Audit Committee Chair reports the existence of any conflicts to the Corporate Board of Directors. Memorial Hermann's conflicts of interest policy requires that Board members excuse themselves from discussions in which they have a conflict of interest. The policy also subjects Board members to disciplinary action if they are found to have violated the policy.
Compensation DeterminationThe process for determining compensation for the Organization's CEO and other Officers, Directors and Key employees is modeled after the requirements in the IRS Code Section 4958 to establish the presumption of reasonable compensation. Compensation was reviewed and approved in advance of being paid by a Compensation Committee of the Board of Memorial Hermann Health System. The Committee is comprised of individuals who have no conflict of interest. The Compensation Committee engages an independent third-party executive compensation consultant who provides comparable market data from published surveys and/or Form 990s of similar organizations. The compensation for each Officer, Director, and Key employee is determined based on the market data. The Compensation Committee conducted a review of the comparability data and documented its discussion and decisions in minutes that are retained with the Organization's other governance materials. Officers, Directors and Key employees of the organization undergo a review and Compensation Committee approval (as outlined above) on an annual-basis, and such approval is recorded in minutes. The executive compensation philosophy drives the strategy and design of Memorial Hermann's compensation package. The executive compensation philosophy is established and maintained by the Compensation Committee. The philosophy is as following: Executive compensation should be tied to our long-term and short-term business strategies of each dimension of our business including, but not limited to: Quality & Safety, Service & Satisfaction, Operational Excellence, and Growth & People. Compensation should reflect the competitive marketplace so the Company can attract, retain and motivate talented executives. Compensation should be tied to our individual and business unit performance. Compensation programs and pay levels should be "Reasonable" within the definition of IRC Section 4958. We should balance any potential strategic, financial, operational and reputational risk with our pay-for-performance philosophy. Based on the above philosophy, Memorial Hermann's executive total compensation package includes a mix of fixed compensation and variable compensation. The following components are included in the executive total compensation package: base salary, annual incentive plan, long term incentive plan and deferred compensation plan. In addition to the compensation components listed above , the CEO and President, Mr. Wolterman, has been provided with a retention agreement. Per the terms of this agreement, he will receive a lump sum payment in July 2016. This lump sum payment is being accrued over the life of the retention agreement (July 2009 to July 2016). The 2014 accrual is included in Column C of Part II on the attached Form 990 Schedule J. If Mr. Wolterman voluntarily leaves prior to July 2016, he does not receive any portion of this lump sum payment. Under certain circumstances (e.g., death or disability), Mr. Wolterman, or his beneficiary, would be entitled to a prorated portion of this lump sum payment.
Oversight Review of Financial StatementsDoes the organization have a committee that assumes responsibility for oversight of the audit, review, or compilation of its financial statements and selection of independent accountant? Memorial Hermann Health System has independent committees for audits, governance, and compensation which perform their respective functions on a consolidated basis for all corporate entities. The audit committee hires the independent accountants and oversees all audits that are conducted within all affiliated entities for financial information, grants and awards, and qualified plans.
Members of OrganizationMemorial Hermann Health System has individual members.
Election of MembersThe members have the authority to annually elect board members of the organization and to fill any vacancies on the board whose terms have expired.
Decisions of Governing BodyThe members have approval authority to approve amendments to, and repeal of the bylaws and certificate of formation, the purchase or sale of all or substantialy all assets of the organization, and the merger or dissolution of the organization.
Disclosure of Organizational DocumentsDescribe how the organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public. The articles of incorporation, corporate bylaws, conflict of interest policy and financial statements of Memorial Hermann Health System and its affiliates are generally not made available to the public. If the inquirer provided a valid reason for desiring a copy of the documents that are related to the business interests of any of the Memorial Hermann Health System corporate entities, we would consider doing so.
Review of Form 990MEMORIAL HERMANN HEALTH SYSTEM PROVIDES A COPY OF THE FORM 990 TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY VIA A WEBSITE SET UP SPECIFICALLY FOR BOARD MEMBERS TO ACCESS VARIOUS BOARD MEMBER DOCUMENTS. THE FORM 990 IS REVIEWED BY MEMORIAL HERMANN FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STAFF, BY SPECIFIC DEPARTMENTS INVOLVED IN RELATED SECTIONS OF THE RETURN, BY THE MEMORIAL HERMANN CHIEF ACCOUNTING OFFICER, AND BY MEMORIAL HERMANN'S PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ERNST & YOUNG, PRIOR TO ITS FILING.
Whistleblower PolicyMHHS has established communication channels to report problems and concerns including a telephone Helpline. Employee partners are encouraged to report problems or concerns either anonymously or in confidence via the Helpline when they deem appropriate. The Helpline establishes an avenue for employee partners or interested parties to report suspected criminal activity, and illegal or unethical conduct occurring within the organization in the event other resolution channels are ineffective or the caller wishes to remain anonymous. The Corporate Compliance Helpline is administered by an outside service in order to protect the anonymity of callers to the Helpline if they so desire to remain anonymous. All those who are employed in the Helpline operation or contracted organizations administering the Helpline are expected to act with utmost discretion and integrity in assuring that information received is acted upon in a reasonable and proper manner. MHHS has established a strict non-retaliation policy to protect, from retaliation, employee partners and others who report problems and concerns in good faith. There shall be no retaliation against a MHHS employee, independent contractor, vendor, allied health professional or medical staff member for reporting or raising a question regarding MHHS's compliance with a law or regulation. Those reporting suspected non-compliance who wish to remain anonymous may do so if they so choose. All reports of suspected non-compliance will be addressed in a confidential manner. The Corporate Compliance Officer or designee will always strive to maintain confidentiality during the compliance review and investigation process; however there may be a point where the identity of a reporter may need to be revealed where appropriate.
Audited FinancialsDid the organization receive an audited financial statement for the year for which it is completing this return that was prepared in accordance with GAAP? The Health System does not have its financial accounts separately audited nor receive audited financial statements. For the consolidated entities of the Memorial Hermann Health System and its affiliates an independent audit is conducted and audited financial statements are prepared according to GAAP by an independent accounting firm, of which the financial accounts of the Health System is a part.

990 Part VI Section A Line 5In March 2015, MHHS discovered the System was a victim of an embezzlement scheme which resulted in the theft of over $9 million over a 14 year period. The perpetrator was arrested and subsequently confessed and pleaded guilty to the crime. Several steps were taken by MHHS to prevent future embezzlement. These steps included review of internal controls and implementation of additional segregation of duties regarding issuing and receiving service purchase orders, additional rigor surrounding employee background checks, fraud detection training and an external fraud risk assessment and analysis. These actions should prevent future occurrences of fraud transactions.
