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 — 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
THE ORGANIZATION RELIED ON A RELATED ORGANIZATION, COMMONSPIRIT, THAT USED ONE OR MORE OF THE METHODS DESCRIBED IN SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 3, TO ESTABLISH THE ORGANIZATION'S TOP MANAGEMENT OFFICIAL'S COMPENSATION: (1) PEOPLE AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE COMMONSPIRIT BOARD OF STEWARDSHIP TRUSTEES ("BOARD"); (2) INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT; (3) COMPENSATION SURVEY OR STUDY; AND (4) APPROVAL BY THE BOARD OR PEOPLE AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. SEE SCHEDULE O DISCLOSURE FOR FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15A FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 4A CERTAIN LISTED PERSONS ARE COVERED BY AN EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE POLICY THAT PROVIDES MARKET-STANDARD COMPENSATION, RANGING FROM PAYMENTS OF 9 TO 24 MONTHS OF BASE COMPENSATION, DEPENDING ON THE EXECUTIVE'S POSITION, IN THE EVENT OF A POSITION ELIMINATION OR OTHER INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GUIDELINES OF THE POLICY. NO PAYMENTS PURSUANT TO THE PLAN ARRANGEMENTS OCCURRED DURING 2024.
PART I, LINE 4B
CERTAIN LISTED PERSONS EMPLOYED BY DIGNITY HEALTH PARTICIPATE IN THE DIGNITY HEALTH EXCESS BENEFIT PLAN, A NONQUALIFIED SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFIT PLAN LIMITED TO PARTICIPANTS IN THE DIGNITY HEALTH RETIREMENT PLAN WHOSE BENEFITS ARE AFFECTED BY THE LIMITATIONS IMPOSED BY SECTIONS 401(A)(17) AND 415 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. BENEFIT SERVICE UNDER THIS PLAN WAS FROZEN AS OF JANUARY 1, 2008. NO PAYMENTS OCCURRED PURSUANT TO THE PLAN ARRANGEMENT DURING 2024. CERTAIN LISTED INDIVIDUALS, WHO ARE PHYSICIANS EMPLOYED BY THE RELATED ORGANIZATION, ARE COVERED BY A 457(F) DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN. ELIGIBLE PHYSICIANS RECEIVE AN ACCRUAL OF 2% OF PAY IN THE PLAN FOR INVESTMENT IN A FUND DETERMINED BY THE PLAN. THE BENEFITS ARE PAID TO THE PHYSICIANS UPON VESTING AT A LATER DATE AS PROVIDED FOR IN THE PLAN DOCUMENT. THE PLAN WAS CLOSED TO NEW ENTRANTS IN 2018 AND WILL PAY OUT FINAL BENEFITS AS THEY BECOME VESTED. NO PAYMENTS WERE MADE UNDER THIS PLAN DURING 2024. COMPENSATION AMOUNTS FOR THE SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLANS DISCUSSED ABOVE ARE REPORTED AS DEFERRED COMPENSATION IN THE YEAR ACCRUED (SCHEDULE J, PART II, COLUMN C) AND ARE REFLECTED AGAIN AS OTHER REPORTABLE COMPENSATION IN THE YEAR PAID (SCHEDULE J, PART II, COLUMN B(III)).
SCHEDULE J, PART III - SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES
DIGNITY HEALTH FOLLOWS COMMONSPIRIT'S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY. COMMONSPIRIT'S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY IS DESIGNED TO ASSIST THE ORGANIZATION IN ATTRACTING AND RETAINING THE CALIBER OF EXECUTIVES REQUIRED TO ENABLE THE ORGANIZATION TO FULFILL ITS MISSION OF PROVIDING HIGH QUALITY HEALTHCARE FOR ALL PERSONS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY FOR SERVICES, IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES, PROMOTING PATIENT AND EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION, AND ENSURING FINANCIAL STABILITY. A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION IS PERFORMANCE BASED AND IS LINKED TO ORGANIZATIONAL GOALS APPROVED IN ADVANCE BY THE PEOPLE AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. THESE GOALS INCLUDE ATTAINMENT OF ANNUAL AND LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE, CERTAIN HEALTHCARE QUALITY STANDARDS AND THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMITMENT TO SERVING THE POOR AND DISENFRANCHISED IN THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES. TOTAL COMPENSATION, WHICH INCLUDES BASE SALARY, ANNUAL AND LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION, IS ESTABLISHED TO APPROXIMATE THE PREVAILING MARKET CONDITIONS FOR EXECUTIVES OF COMPANIES OF SIMILAR SIZE, REVENUES AND COMPLEXITY. PAYMENTS PURSUANT TO A LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE GOAL WERE PAID IN CALENDAR YEAR 2024.
