Return Reference Explanation
Part I, Line 3 The CEO of Core Physicians, LLC is compensated by a related organization, Exeter Health Resources, Inc. Exeter Health Resources, Inc. uses a compensation committee, an independent compensation consultant, a compensation survey and approval by the Board or compensation committee.
Part I, Line 4b The organization's parent (Exeter Health Resources, Inc.) maintains a split dollar supplemental retirement plan for two executives (listed below with amounts) selected by the Exeter Health Resources Board of Trustees. The plan is closed to future participants. The Plan provides for annual payments of premiums for life insurance policies insuring the listed individuals. Those life insurance premiums are collaterally assigned to the corporation and any excess accumulated value in the policies (net of accumulated premium payments which are returned to the organization upon the executive attaining the age of 70 or at the death of the participant) is available to be paid to the participant once vested at age 62 and upon retirement from the organization. Note that the split-dollar arrangement is part of an employee benefit program and economically not a direct extension of credit. Furthermore, the reportable compensation of the respective employees includes the annual value of the life insurance provided. Life insurance premium payments during tax year: Kevin J. Callahan $313,241 Kevin J. O'Leary $136,191 Excess Accumulated Value: Kevin J. Callahan $3,506,002 Kevin J. O'Leary $1,448,487 Certain of the listed employees participate in a nonqualified deferred compensation plan as described in Internal Revenue Code Section 457(f) sponsored by Exeter Health Resources, Inc. In the calendar year ended December 31, 2019 the contribution to the plan for the vested benefit of Kevin J. O'Leary was $68,000. The contribution is intended to provide a forfeitable supplemental retirement benefit. Participants in the 457(f) plan do not vest until age 62 when it is payable to the participant. During the calendar year ended December 31, 2019, Kevin O'Leary reached the age of 62 and received $1,002,727 payment from the 457(f) plan, which includes $748,000 of contributions reported on Form 990, Part VII-A and Schedule J, Part II, Column (C) in prior years.
Part I, Line 7 Core Physicians, LLC has a compensation plan that is based upon competitive market rates relative to a physician's specialty. The organization utilizes the services of an outside compensation consultant to determine market benchmarks. Total compensation consists of a base salary, a potential for a productivity bonus, an on-call stipend (if applicable), a medical directorship stipend (if applicable), a citizenship and quality payment that is earned based upon the achievement of objectives set in advance. The productivity bonus is based on work relative value units (WRVU) production and would be eligible to anyone who produces WRVU's above his or her base salary WRVU level. Base compensation is also adjusted if work relative value units fall below the base salary WRVU equivalency level. The physicians' compensation is approved by Core Physicians, LLC's Compensation Committee which is comprised of system managers who are approved by the Exeter Health Resources Board of Trustees.
Schedule J, Part II: Kevin J. Callahan, Kevin J. O'Leary and Debra Cresta, who serve as System Managers, and Constance Sprauer, Esq. and Allison Casassa, who serve as Secretary and Assistant Treasurer respectively for Core Physicians, LLC are compensated by a related organization, Exeter Health Resources, Inc.
