Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

THE ANNUAL COMPENSATION REVIEW PROCEDURE WAS COMPLETED BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON MARCH 21, 2023. ALL DECISIONS OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ARE CONTEMPORANAEOUSLY DOCUMENTED IN THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE MINUTES WHICH ARE TIMELY REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE COMMITTEE. RELATED ORGANIZATION EMPLOYED PHYSICIAN COMPENSATION IS UNDER THE PURVIEW OF THE BRYAN HEALTH COMPENSATION COMMITTEE.
