        <IncomeBasedCriteria>THE ORGANIZATION USES THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDLINES (FPG) TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY FOR PROVIDING FREE AND DISCOUNTED CARE TO LOW INCOME INDIVIDUALS. IN DOING SO, THE ORGANIZATION FOLLOWS METHODOLOGIES RECOMMENDED BY THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION.</IncomeBasedCriteria>
        <AnnualCommunityBenefitExpln>THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT IS CONTAINED IN A REPORT PREPARED BY CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF ORANGE COUNTY (CHOC CHILDREN'S) AND CHOC CHILDREN'S AT MISSION HOSPITAL (CHOC MISSION)ANNUALLY AND IS FILED IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA SB697.</AnnualCommunityBenefitExpln>
        <CostingMethodUsed>THE ORGANIZATION USES THE COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO METHODOLOGY TO DETERMINE THE COST OF CHARITY CARE AND UNREIMBURSED COST OF CARE PROVIDED TO MEDI-CAL PATIENTS. COSTS ARE ACCOUNTED FOR USING AN INTERNAL DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM. THE COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO FOLLOWS THE METHOD DEFINED BY THE MEDICARE COST REPORT AND IS UPDATED MONTHLY USING THE MOST RECENT ORGANIZATIONAL INFORMATION. PART III, LINE 1: THE ORGANIZATION REPORTS BAD DEBT EXPENSE AS AN OPERATING EXPENSE IN ACCORDANCE WITH US GAAP. HFMA STATEMENT NO. 15, WHICH REQUIRES BAD DEBT TO BE RECOGNIZED AS A REDUCTION FROM NET PATIENT REVENUE, HAS NOT YET BEEN ADOPTED AS AN ACCOUNTING STANDARD IN THE US.</CostingMethodUsed>
        <SubsidizedHealthServicesExpln>THE ORGANIZATION DID NOT INCLUDE SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO A PHYSICIAN CLINIC IN THE TABLE IN PART I, LINE 7G.</SubsidizedHealthServicesExpln>
        <PercentOfTotalExpenseExpln>THE BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED IN FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 25 BUT SUBTRACTED FOR PURPOSES OF CALCULATING THE PERCENTAGE IN THIS COLUMN IS $13,351,022.</PercentOfTotalExpenseExpln>
        <BadDebtFootnote>THE ORGANIZATION CHARGES BAD DEBT FOR (A) THE WRITE-OFF OF PATIENT ACCOUNTS WHERE FAMILIES DID NOT COOPERATE WITH CHOC IN THE COMPLETION OF MEDI-CAL OR CHARITY CARE APPLICATIONS AND WHERE INSUFFICIENT INFORMATION COULD BE OBTAINED REGARDING THE FINANCIAL STATUS OF THE FAMILY, AND (B) A PROVISION FOR OUTSTANDING ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FROM SELF-PAY (INCLUDING PENDING MEDI-CAL AND PENDING CHARITY) ACCOUNTS. AS A CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, CHOC IS IN THE UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCE OF TREATING PATIENTS WHERE A MAJORITY COULD QUALIFY FOR SOME TYPE OF GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE OR CHARITY CARE. THE ORGANIZATION APPLIES ITS CHARITY CARE POLICY TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY BASED ON FAMILIES' SATISFYING THE APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS AND THE ORGANIZATION'S ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. THE ORGANIZATION DOES, HOWEVER, HAVE FAMILIES WHO FAIL TO COMPLETE THE REQUIRED PAPERWORK DESPITE THE ORGANIZATION'S EFFORTS TO EDUCATE ALL FAMILIES OF THE CHARITY CARE OPTIONS. IN THESE CASES, AN ASSESSMENT OF CHARITY CARE ELIGIBILITY IS MADE BASED ON KNOWN INFORMATION. AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOOTNOTE: PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ARE RECORDED AT THE INVOICED AMOUNT NET OF ANY EXPECTED CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENTS AND DO NOT BEAR INTEREST. THE ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS IS CHOC'S BEST ESTIMATE OF THE AMOUNT OF PROBABLE CREDIT LOSSES IN CHOC'S EXISTING PATIENT ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. CHOC DETERMINES THE ALLOWANCE BASED ON HISTORICAL WRITE-OFF EXPERIENCE. CHOC REVIEWS ITS ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS ON A MONTHLY BASIS. PAST-DUE BALANCES OVER 90 DAYS AND OVER A SPECIFIED AMOUNT ARE REVIEWED INDIVIDUALLY FOR COLLECTABILITY. THERE ARE OTHER FACTORS THAT CAN IMPACT COLLECTIONS, SUCH AS CHANGES IN THE ECONOMY,WHICH IN TURN HAVE AN IMPACT ON UNEMPLOYMENT RATES AND THE NUMBER OF UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED PATIENTS, THE INCREASE BURDEN OF CO-PAYMENTS TO BE MADE BY PATIENTS WITH INSURANCE AND BUSINESS PRACTICES RELATED TO COLLECTION EFFORTS. THESE FACTORS CONTINUOUSLY CHANGE AND CAN HAVE AN IMPACT ON COLLECTION TRENDS AND THE ESTIMATION PROCESS. ACCOUNT BALANCES ARE CHARGED OFF AGAINST THE ALLOWANCE AFTER ALL MEANS OF COLLECTION HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED AND THE POTENTIAL FOR RECOVERY IS REMOTE, BUT IN NO CASES BEYOND ONE YEAR FROM DATE OF SERVICE.</BadDebtFootnote>
        <ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit>THE ALLOWABLE COST IS BASED ON A COST TO CHARGE RATIO OF 0.23987. SHORTFALLS ARE CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BECAUSE THE DOLLAR VALUE OF BENEFITS PROVIDED BY LEGISLATIVE CATEGORY LINK TO THE DOLLARS IDENTIFIED BY COMMUNITY NEEDS. CHOC REPORTS UNPAID COSTS OF PUBLIC PROGRAMS AS GOVERNMENT PAYOR SHORTFALLS. THE PRINCIPAL MEASURE FOR MONITORING COMMUNITY BENEFIT SERVICES IS THE DOLLAR VALUE OF BENEFITS RETURNED TO THE COMMUNITY PER DOLLAR OF TAX EXEMPTION VALUE RECEIVED.</ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit>
        <DebtCollectionPolicy>THE HOSPITAL'S WRITTEN BAD-DEBT COLLECTION POLICY STATES THE FOLLOWING: 1. IF A PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR ASSISTANCE UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AND IS MAKING EVERY EFFORT TO SETTLE AN OUTSTANDING BILL WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME PERIOD, CHOC OR ITS AGENT WILL NOT SEND, NOR INTIMATE THAT IT WILL SEND, THE UNPAID ACCOUNT TO AN OUTSIDE AGENCY IF DOING SO MAY NEGATIVELY IMPACT A PATIENT'S CREDIT. IF CHOC IS FORCED TO SEND THE ACCOUNT TO AN OUTSIDE COLLECTION AGENCY, THE AMOUNT REFERRED TO THE AGENCY WILL REFLECT THE REDUCED PAYMENT LEVEL FOR WHICH THE PATIENT WAS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. AT NO TIME WILL A PATIENT ACCOUNT BE REFERRED TO AN OUTSIDE COLLECTION AGENCY IF THE ACCOUNT IS LESS THAN 150 DAYS FROM ORIGINAL BILLING. 2. IN DEALING WITH IDENTIFIED UNINSURED PATIENTS AT OR BELOW 400% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, CHOC WILL NOT USE WAGE GARNISHMENTS OR LIENS ON PATIENT'S OR PATIENT FAMILY'S PRIMARY RESIDENCE AS A MEANS OF COLLECTING UNPAID CHOC BILLS. THIS REQUIREMENT DOES NOT PRECLUDE CHOC FROM PURSUING REIMBURSEMENT FROM THIRD PARTY LIABILITY SETTLEMENTS.</DebtCollectionPolicy>

        <Identifier>Supplemental Nonqualified Retirement Plan</Identifier>
        <ReturnReference>Part I, Line 4B</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) established a nonqualified deferred compensation plan in 2002 in which certain individuals listed on the Form 990, Part VII and Schedule J are participants. Under the plan, a grantor trust was established for which CHOC is the grantor. The principal of the trust and any earnings thereon are held separate and apart from other funds of CHOC and are to be used exclusively for the uses and purposes of plan participants and CHOC's general creditors. The company established a capital accumulation account on its books for each plan participant for each election of benefits accrued under the plan. The capital accumulation account is utilized solely as a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid to the participants under the plan. The participant is a general unsecured creditor of the company for the payment of capital accumulation account benefits. CHOC contributed to the trust such money or other assets in the amounts and at the times determined in its sole discretion. The participant is entitled to his/her capital accumulation account benefit under the earliest of (1) remaining employed by the company to the deferred vesting for the account; (2) disability; (3) 24 months following involuntary separation from service without reasonable cause; or (4) following a voluntary separation from service if certain non-compete stipulations are met. In December 2008, the CHOC compensation committee dissolved this plan and all assets were disbursed involuntarily to the participants. The following individuals received payments from the dissolution of this supplemental non-qualified retirement plan during calendar year 2009: Kimberly C. Cripe ($159,223), Kerri Ruppert Schiller ($79,208), Ms. Conk ($43,074), Ms. Bledsoe ($51,188), Mr. Headland ($47,512), Ms. Hollingsworth ($39,878), Mr. Schinderle ($33,147), Ms. Rowett ($35,388), Mr. Gabriel ($59,736), Dr. Minon ($91,430), Mr. Niedzwiecki ($43,283), Mr. Romero ($51,508).</Explanation>

Access to quality pediatric healthcare resources and information to families, including low-income and medically underserved, throughout Orange and contiguous counties, is accomplished by offering: (1) Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). The 30 bed PICU at CHOC is staffed by intensivists and clinician staff and is equipped with advanced computerized monitoring systems and offers care to critically ill or injured children with life-threatening disorders. (2) Oncology Unit staffed by specialists trained to treat the complex conditions that accompany pediatric cancers. This includes a 28-bed hematology/oncology unit and a 12-bed oncology intensive care unit (OICU). The unit offers the latest in medical and surgical oncology including chemotherapy, radiotherapy and blood and marrow transplantation. CHOC also opened a 22 chair outpatient infusion center in 2008. (3) CHOC's neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) takes care of infants who need critical care (most often premature babies suffering from respiratory and circulatory problems as well as congenital anomalies requiring surgery) that can be admitted to the NICU within minutes of birth. The 54-bed NICU at CHOC includes two eight-bed nurseries, two nine-bed nurseries, six isolation rooms, 12 beds that provide private rooming and a two-bed extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) unit.
