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 filer's explanations (Part III)

Schedule J, Part I, Line 3 Arrangement used to establish the top management official's compensation
THE CEO IS PAID FROM A RELATED ORGANIZATION, MERCY HEALTH SYSTEM CORPORATION (MHSC). MHSC USES THE FOLLOWING TO ESTABLISH THE COMPENSATION OF THE CEO: COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT, FORM 990 OF OTHER ORGANIZATION, WRITTEN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT, COMPENSATION SURVEY OR STUDY AND APPROVAL BY THE BOARD OR COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. THE MERCY COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF MHSC IS COMPRISED OF THE BOARD CHAIRPERSON, VICE CHAIR AND SECRETARY/TREASURER. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE IS ASSISTED BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL AND AN INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THE COMPENSATION CONSULTANT MEET THROUGHOUT THE YEAR AND REPORT DIRECTLY TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ANNUALLY. THIS PROCESS WAS COMPLETED FOR 2022.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4a Severance or change-of-control payment
James Davis received 26 weeks severance pay $119,025 in 2022.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4b Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan
INCENTIVE PLAN DISTRIBUTION: JAVON R. BEA - $4,953,609 Todd Anderson, Joanna Benning, and E. Patrick Cranley participated in the 457(f) plan during Calendar year 2022. However, they did not receive a payout during calendar year 2022.
Schedule J, Part II
JAVON R. BEA - DEFERRED COMPENSATION PAYMENT MR. BEA HAS BEEN EMPLOYED BY MHSC AS PRESIDENT AND CEO OVER THE PAST 30 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 85 FACILITIES IN 50 COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT SOUTHERN WISCONSIN AND NORTHERN ILLINOIS, INCREASING GROSS REVENUE FROM $33 MILLION TO OVER $3.6 BILLION IN FY2023. THIS HAS ALLOWED THE HEALTH SYSTEM TO GO FROM SERVING 89,000 PATIENTS IN 1989 TO OVER 1.8 MILLION PATIENTS TODAY WORKING TOGETHER WITH OVER 7,500+ PARTNERS IN HEALTH CARE. 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 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, 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 FOR OVER 12 STRAIGHT YEARS. THE TURNAROUND OF THE 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.
