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.

Schedule J

Answered yes

  • 4b · Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan

Answered no

  • 4a · Severance or change-of-control payment
  • 4c · Equity-based compensation arrangement
  • 5a · Pay contingent on this organization's revenues
  • 5b · Pay contingent on a related organization's revenues
  • 6a · Pay contingent on this organization's net earnings
  • 6b · Pay contingent on a related organization's net earnings
  • 7 · Other non-fixed payments
  • 8 · Paid under the initial-contract exception

The filer's explanations (Part III)

PART I, LINE 3
COMPENSATION FOR EXECUTIVES, INCLUDING THE TOP MANAGEMENT OFFICIAL, IS GOVERNED BY THE MHC BOARD OF DIRECTORS (A RELATED ORGANIZATION AND SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER OF VNA). THE MHC BOARD HAS ESTABLISHED A TOTAL COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY THAT DIRECTS THE COMPENSATION PRACTICES FOR ALL EXECUTIVES FROM ALL RELATED ENTITIES (INCLUDING VNA) THIS BOARD HAS ESTABLISHED A COMPENSATION COMMITTEE TO ESTABLISH AND REVIEW ALL EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ANNUALLY BASED ON THE ESTABLISHED PHILOSOPHY. AN INDEPENDENT EXTERNAL EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION FIRM PROVIDES CONSULTING ON MHC (INCLUDING VNA) SALARY RANGES AND COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY. THE APPROPRIATE PEER GROUP FOR COMPENSATION COMPARISON PURPOSES IS OTHER NOT-FOR-PROFIT HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS SIMILAR IN SIZE AND COMPLEXITY. MHC GENERALLY CONDUCTS AN ANALYSIS OF TOTAL COMPENSATION EVERY THREE YEARS BUT MAY CHOOSE TO VARY FROM THIS SCHEDULE AS DETERMINED BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. THE VNA BOARD OF DIRECTORS CONCEDES THE AUTHORITY TO SET COMPENSATION TO MHC AS THE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER THIS PROCESS WAS LAST COMPLETED IN 2023.
PART I, LINE 4B
INCENTIVE PLAN DISTRIBUTION: JAVON R. BEA - $8,510,830
PART II, LINE 1:
JAVON R. BEA DEFERRED COMPENSATION PAYMENT MR. BEA HAS BEEN EMPLOYED BY MHSC AS PRESIDENT AND CEO OVER THE PAST 36 YEARS. DURING THIS TIME, MR. BEA HAS LED AN INCREDIBLE TRANSFORMATION TAKING A SMALL, SINGLE, STAND-ALONE COMMUNITY HOSPITAL AND CREATING A VERTICALLY INTEGRATED HEALTH SYSTEM WITH 89 FACILITIES IN 50 COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT SOUTHERN WISCONSIN AND NORTHERN ILLINOIS, INCREASING GROSS REVENUE FROM $33 MILLION TO OVER $4.1 BILLION IN FY2024. THIS HAS ALLOWED THE HEALTH SYSTEM TO GO FROM SERVING 89,000 PATIENTS IN 1989 TO OVER 1.9 MILLION PATIENTS TODAY WORKING TOGETHER WITH OVER 7,500+ PARTNERS IN HEALTH CARE AND OVER 800 EMPLOYED PHYSICIANS. TODAY, MHSC HAS BECOME THE LARGEST EMPLOYER IN SOUTHERN WISCONSIN AND NORTHERN ILLINOIS. THIS GROWTH CAN BE ATTRIBUTED TO MR. BEA'S VISIONARY LEADERSHIP. LEADERSHIP THAT OVER THE YEARS HAS LED TO MHSC RECEIVING NUMEROUS NATIONAL RECOGNIZED AWARDS INCLUDING BEING NAMED THE FIRST FULLY INTEGRATED HEALTH SYSTEM TO RECEIVE THE MALCOLM BALDRIGE NATIONAL QUALITY AWARD FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, THE MAGNET RECOGNITION AWARD, BEING RANKED #1 AND #2 ON AARP'S TOP 100 BEST PLACES TO WORK FOR WORKERS OVER 50, AND BEING RANKED IN THE TOP 25 ON THE TOP 100 INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE NETWORKS LIST BY MODERN HEALTHCARE. THE TURNAROUND OF MHSC IMPLEMENTED BY MR. BEA IS UNPARALLELED. BY PIONEERING A "PARTNERSHIP MODEL" OF COMPENSATION AND DESIGNING A CUSTOM CULTURE OF EXCELLENCE, MR. BEA IS VITAL TO THE DECADES-LONG AND CONTINUING GROWTH AT MHSC. THIS SUCCESS HAS MADE MR. BEA A HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER SPEAKER AND CONSULTANT AS HE IS NOW WELL-RENOWNED FOR HIS INNOVATIONS IN THE AREAS OF INTEGRATED HEALTHCARE AND PHYSICIAN PARTNERSHIP MODELS. THE TREMENDOUS SUCCESS OF MHSC UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF MR. BEA HAS ALLOWED HIM TO RECEIVE PAYOUTS FROM A DEFERRED COMPENSATION PACKAGE WHICH MHSC HAS BEEN PAYING INTO OVER MANY YEARS. THESE PAYMENTS ONLY BECAME PAYABLE IF MHSC ATTAINED CERTAIN DEFINED FINANCIAL AND STRATEGIC GOALS AND THE AMOUNTS ARE AT RISK EVERY SINGLE YEAR. AS INDICATED ABOVE, MANY OF THESE GOALS WERE ACHIEVED WITHIN THE PAST FEW YEARS RESULTING IN A RELEASE OF THESE DEFERRED PAYMENTS WHICH IMPACTED MR. BEA'S COMPENSATION REPORTING. THE SETTING OF THESE GOALS WERE LAID OUT BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN COOPERATION WITH NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED COMPENSATION ATTORNEYS AND CONSULTANTS TO MAKE SURE ALL FACTORS WERE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. MR. BEA'S COMPENSATION HAS ALSO BEEN SCRUTINIZED BY NUMEROUS OUTSIDE ORGANIZATIONS AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE; AND HAS PASSED INSPECTION IN EACH CASE. TOTAL COMPENSATION IS APPROVED ANNUALLY BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF MHSC.
