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.

All compensation is determined by the Executive Compensation Committee of SwedishAmerican Health System Corporation and is paid by UW Health SwedishAmerican Hospital. All compensation decisions are made by independent persons. With respect to the President & CEO and other Officers, SwedishAmerican Health System Corporation follows a compensation approval procedure annually that involves approval of proposed and final compensation arrangements by SwedishAmerican Health System Corporation's Executive Compensation Committee using comparability data, as well as contemporaneous documentation of compensation decisions in the minutes.
