Schedule A, Part IV, Section A, Line 1 Supported Orgs Listed By NameHealth Research and Educational Trust ("HRET") has a historic and continuing relationship with its supported organization, American Hospital Association ("AHA")-spanning over a 70-year period-and, as described below, there is a substantial identity of interests between the organizations. Therefore, HRET meets the organizational requirements of a Type I supporting organization. By way of background, in 1943 the AHA's House of Delegates passed a resolution recommending, among other things, federal aid for the construction of hospitals where needed. This was a special challenge because there was no complete inventory of the nation's hospitals by location, ownership, number of beds or services offered. In fact, there was no precise definition for "hospital." These shortcomings made it impossible to study the country's need for hospitals and other medical facilities. The AHA moved to fill this void by commissioning a study to evaluate existing facilities and services, project the need for hospitals, and offer recommendations for action at the end of World War II. In 1944, the AHA established HRET to receive grants for the study. Since that time, HRET has remained an active research and education affiliate of AHA. There is a substantial identity of interests between HRET and AHA. For example, HRET publicly holds itself out as being "in Partnership with AHA" and a "not-for-profit research and education affiliate of the AHA." It is assured that a substantial identity of interests between the organizations is maintained and will continue because the HRET Amended and Restated Trust Agreement provides that the entire Board of Trustees of HRET shall be either members of the AHA Board of Trustees, or appointed by the AHA Board of Trustees. Furthermore, among other things, the Bylaws of HRET provide that the Chair of HRET is appointed by the AHA Board of Trustees; the President of HRET is the AHA Senior Vice President for Research; and the Treasurer of HRET is the Treasurer of the AHA.
Schedule A, Part IV, Section A, Line 3b Qualified Under 501C(4)(5) Or (6)Annually, the AHA completes a pro forma schedule a, part III. The supporting calculation is kept in HRET's files.
Schedule A, Part IV, Section A, Line 3c Support To Org. Used Exclusively Sec. 170(c)(2)(B) PurposesHRET engages in activities which further the AHA's exempt purpose to advance the health of individuals and communities. HRET does not provide any monetary support to AHA.

Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnoteHRET "The Trust" is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Trust follows the provisions of the Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes section of the Income Taxes Topic of the ASC, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the Trust may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Trust. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the reporting periods presented herein. The Trust files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Illinois. The Trust is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before 2013.
