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

  • 4a · Severance or change-of-control payment

  • 5a · Pay contingent on this organization's revenues
  • 5b · Pay contingent on a related organization's revenues

  • 8 · Paid under the initial-contract exception

The filer's explanations (Part III)

Part I Line 7
There are some officers and key employees of the hospital that are eligible for annual bonus compensation if they meet goals and achievements that are set at the beginning of each year and are approved by the board of directors. The annual incentive bonuses are only paid after achievements are assessed and only if the hospital achieves at least 80 of its budgeted operating margin. If the hospital has a negative operating margin, that annual incentive bonus will not be awarded.

Compensation for the CEO is determined by the WV United Health System compensation committee. The System engages an independent group to perform an executive compensation review and compensation survey every two years. This information is provided to the committee, which is made up of independent board members who are then responsible for setting the compensation packages offered to each executive, ensuring that the compensation package offered does not exceed fair market value.
Part I Line 4a
Linda Carte received severance pay in the amount of 263,782 from related party in 2024.
