VNSNY Hospice and Palliative Care shares this mission of charity and public benefit with VNSNY and its related 501(c)(3) corporations and receives significant assistance from VNSNY for its programs. This assistance includes grants of philanthropic dollars (monies from donors and from VNSNY's own reserves) for its charitable initiatives. In 2015, VNSNY and its affiliates provided $19.9M in charitable care and community services. (See VNSNY Form 990 for complete list of charitable programs.)

The process for determining the individual compensation levels of VNSNY's top management, including the CEO, and all officers meets the three requirements of the rebuttable presumption under Treas. Reg. 53.4958-6. A Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors for the purpose of assisting the Board to fulfill its responsibility to VNSNY and the community to ensure the compensation is in accordance with VNSNY's policies. The Committee is comprised of 6 Directors who are independent of management and VNSNY and free of any conflicts of interest that would interfere with their exercise of independent judgment. Prior to making compensation decisions, the Committee obtains and relies upon appropriate data as to comparability. The Committee retains an independent compensation consultant and utilizes local and national compensation surveys to assist in setting compensation levels. The Compensation Committee adequately and on a timely basis documents the basis for setting compensation with the making of the determination.
