        <ExplanationTxt>The System, Thomas Memorial, the Foundation, Saint Francis and THS Physician Partners are recognized as exempt from Federal and state income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state statutes relating to not-for-profit organizations. Under applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and state statutes, TMH Services, which is a for-profit entity and subject to Federal and state income taxes, elected to be treated as a C-corporation for income tax purposes. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require the management of the System to evaluate tax positions taken by the System. Management has evaluated the System's tax positions and concluded that the System had maintained its tax exempt status and had taken no uncertain tax positions that require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in the consolidated financial statements. The System is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The management of the System believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.</ExplanationTxt>
