      <Desc>Patient Care:The Foundation raises money to support activities related to the Gillette mission. This includes offering financial aid to patients based on need, whether or not they have health insurance, and offering charity care to patients who are financially unable to pay all or part of their medical bills. Gillette evaluates each situation based on a patient's income, assets and other resources, and the hospital assists with establishing manageable payment plans (including co-pays and co-insurance). For people without insurance, Gillette charges for care in accordance with the 501(r) guidelines.See Schedule O.If patients inform Gillette that they will have a difficult time meeting their financial obligations, Gillette helps patients in their efforts to qualify for public assistance or the Gillette charity care program. Income eligibility for the program is based on national poverty guidelines. Gillette will never turn away a family due to an inability to pay for treatment. Additionally, funds raised by the Foundation support areas of Gillette operations that are unreimbursed or under-reimbursed. For example, Gillette operates Outreach Clinics in communities in greater (largely rural) Minnesota. However, in providing these services, Gillette incurs losses. Gillette Outreach Clinics offer appointments with doctors, nurse practitioners, and seating and adaptive equipment specialists. Outreach clinics also help with care coordination and education for community providers in the specialized needs of Gillette patients living in their communities. Similarly, Gillette provides a variety of services to patients through our Child and Family Services area that are unreimbursed or under-reimbursed. Child life specialists, for example, help children and families prepare for and cope with hospital stays and medical procedures. Social workers provide emotional support and help with practical concerns for families of children who have disabilities, such as ordering medical equipment and finding transportation or other resources.</Desc>

        <Desc>Capital:The Gillette Children's Foundation raises funds to support Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare's mission of providing specialized health care for children and adults who have complex and rare medical conditions. The Foundation's support allows Gillette to further its vision of helping patients realize their full potential. See Schedule O.During 2017, the Foundation transferred funds to support the renovation of Gillette's Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit. This unit houses patients who have experienced brain or spinal cord injuries, as well as children who are recovering from major surgeries. Patients typically stay on this unit anywhere from six weeks to several months. The renovation created 17 single inpatient rooms, three of which feature high-tech equipment that gives trauma patients the ability to control their environment using their voice, eye gaze or head movements. Gillette is the only pediatric hospital in Minnesota to offer such "smart rooms." Gillette offers the region's largest inpatient rehabilitation program for children and teens, and is among only eight hospitals in the U.S. to hold Commission for Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) accreditation for both its brain injury program and pediatric specialty program.Foundation funds also supported improvements to Gillette's St. Paul Clinic entrance, check-in and waiting spaces. For instance, the outpatient check-in space is significantly more spacious and designed to meet the needs of children with sensory issues. The hospital's entrance, which is located inside a parking ramp, is brightly-lit and now features a spacious and temperature-controlled space where families can wait while a valet service retrieves their vehicle. These renovations have significantly enhanced the patient experience. The American Institute of Architects-Minnesota Chapter recognized this, naming their tour of Gillette the #1 tour of their 2017 annual conference.</Desc>

        <Desc>Research:Gillette research activities concentrate on clinical applications devoted to finding effective medical interventions for disabling conditions and their related effects. Research at Gillette consists of fourteen emphasis areas, all of which seek to improve the lives of children who have disabilities and complex conditions. See Schedule O.During 2017, 106 active studies were underway and 37 studies were published in peer-reviewed journals. Following are several examples of research advancements during 2017: Gillette pioneered a technique for craniosynostosis repair surgery that doesn't require babies to undergo a blood transfusion; a major advancement in patient safety. Data surrounding the transfusion-less technique existed, but hadn't been compiled, formatted and analyzed-a necessity for findings to be publicized. Funding made it possible for a craniofacial resident to analyze the data, allowing findings to be presented as a podium presentation at the Midwestern Association of Plastic Surgeons conference. Gillette will also be submitting the findings to a prestigious journal, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Research into pain assessment in nonverbal patients has also continued to move forward. Findings from a study on spasticity-related pain, experienced by patients before and after an intrathecal bump (ITB) pump placement, has been presented nationally and internationally, and research into assessing pain experienced by patients who have Rett syndrome (a rare disorder that primarily affects females) was published in the journal Paediatric Anaesthesia. Gillette is a leader in the treatment of, and research into, a rare orthopedic condition called Legg-Calv-Perthes (LCP). We participate in an international LCP study group and have the world's third-highest number of participants in this study group. Ongoing clinical and pre-clinical studies have prognostic, diagnostic and therapeutic implications for treatment of LCP.</Desc>

        <ExplanationTxt>Certain Gillette employees (executives and physicians) are eligible to participate in non-qualified deferred compensation plans. These plans comply with Section 457(f) of the Internal Revenue Code. These plans require employees to be executives or physicians to participate. Payments from the Plan occur annually by July 1 of the year following the end of the Plan year. The Plan is a "gap" plan, which provides participants with a deposit that closes the gap between the limits of IRC 403(b) and the actual cash compensation of the participant.

        <ExplanationTxt>Foundation staff members are employed by Gillette. Gillette is the organization that actually pays the compensation and has the process for determining compensation as stated below. At the request of the Compensation Committee of the Gillette board, an independent consultant provides the committee with survey data and recommendations for chief executive officer (CEO)/president and other executive salary ranges based on Gillette's compensation philosophy, which was developed by the Compensation Committee and is reviewed regularly. The members of this committee determine the CEO/president's salary and the salary ranges for other executives. The committee oversees the executive incentive plan, approves any incentive plan payouts, and regularly evaluates the benefits provided to executives. The external consultant has provided total compensation data for all executives, and the committee has diligently followed the process for establishing a presumption of reasonableness. In addition to the oversight function of executive total compensation, the Compensation Committee oversees any payments under any incentive compensation plans and evaluates all transactions with "disqualified persons."</ExplanationTxt>
