Supplemental Information
Provide the information, explanation, or descriptions required for Part I, lines 1a, 1b, 3, 4a, 4b, 4c, 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7, and 8, and for Part II. Also complete this part for any additional information.
Return Reference Explanation
Schedule J, Part I, Line 3 Arrangement used to establish the top management official's compensation CHILDREN'S HEALTH SYSTEM OF TEXAS (EIN 75-2062019) IS THE SOLE MEMBER AND COMMON PAYING AGENT FOR CHILDREN'S MEDICAL CENTER OF DALLAS (CMCD). THEREFORE, Executives, OTHER OFFICERS, AND KEY EMPLOYEES ARE EMPLOYED AND COMPENSATED BY CHILDREN'S HEALTH SYSTEM OF TEXAS (CHST). The CHST process for determining executive compensation is as follows: The Human Resources Committee (Committee) of the CHST Board is responsible for setting the compensation for executives. The Committee is comprised of independent, non-employee directors. A written compensation philosophy has been developed by the Human Resources Committee for timeliness and appropriateness and defines the desired peer groups for compensation surveys. COMPENSATION PROGRAM COMPONENTS: The elements of total compensation provided to CHST executives include: - Cash compensation (i.e., base salary, short-term and long-term incentive compensation, and/or other cash compensation), determined in consideration of competitive market practices, organizational and individual performance, recruitment and retention considerations, and other relevant factors. - Standard benefits, assisting in each executive's medical, dental, disability, life insurance, time off, and retirement needs, reflective of the employment status (i.e., full or part time) of the executive. - Supplemental benefits, including supplemental insurance, retirement benefits, and/or other supplemental benefits determined by the Committee to be appropriate and reasonable in relation to marketplace practices. Compensation and benefits decisions are made in consideration of each executive's position, responsibilities, skills, effort, and performance, in relation to documented practices within the appropriate comparator group(s). PEER GROUP: The Committee has defined its primary peer group for executives as not-for-profit health care organizations similar in size, structure, and complexity. This group will include leading pediatric health systems as well as integrated health systems and academic medical centers. - Data will be compiled in a manner consistent with the IRS Intermediate Sanctions rules of federal tax law, to reflect what is "ordinarily paid to like executives by like enterprises under like circumstances." - In certain circumstances, market data from additional comparator groups (e.g., research institutions, insurance industry, and general industry companies) may also be referenced. - The specific nature of the role at CHST will be considered when adding comparator groups outside of the primary peer group, and the Committee will discuss and agree on the appropriateness of adding comparator groups whenever the specific nature of the CHST role requires additional comparator groups to be used.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4b Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan Non-Qualified Retirement Plan: *Retirement Income Restoration Plan - No employees received taxable income from the the Retirement Income Restoration Plan. Employees who participated in the Retirement Income Restoration Plan include Christopher J Durovich and Mary Stowe *Savings Restoration Plan - Michele Chulick received $22,998, Peter Roberts received $76,232, and Cynthia Bassel received $7,964, as taxable income from the Savings Restoration Plan. Additional employees who participated in the Savings Restoration Plan include Christopher J Durovich, Mary Stowe, Pamela Arora, Kimberly Besse, Jerry Lee, and William Morrow.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 7 Non-fixed payments Non-Fixed Payments - The Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors of Children's Health System of Texas retains the authority to adjust annual payout percentages solely at their discretion. There were no non-fixed payments in 2017.
