ACHE is subject to taxes on unrelated business income, which generally result from ACHE's advertising revenues. ACHE had $1,317,690 and $1,196,476 in gross advertising revenues, and incurred $317,880 and $276,299 in income tax expense, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which is included in other expenses. The accounting standard on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under this guidance, the Organization 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 Organization and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBTI). There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the reporting periods included in these consolidated financial statements. ACHE files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Illinois. ACHE is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before 2012. 1 Baldrige Foundation 1717 Pennsylvania Ave NW Washington DC 20006 592891462 501(c)(3) 25000 General Support Institute for Diversity in Health Management Inc 155 N Wacker Drive Chicago IL 60606 582094118 501(c)(3) 25000 General Support Association of University Programs in Health Administration (AUPHA) 2000 14th Street N Suite 780 Arlington VA 22201 366110249 501(c)(3) 10000 General Support Enroll America 1001 G Street NW Fl 8 Washington DC 20001 271661221 501(c)(3) 10000 General Support Illinois Performance Excellence 1501 Bradley Avenue 428 Jobst Hall Peoria IL 61625 363952696 501(c)(3) 10000 General Support National Association of Health Services Executives 1050 Connecticut Avenue NW Fl 5 Washington DC 20036 621312239 501(c)(3) 10000 General Support National Forum for Latino Healthcare Executives 566 W Adams Suite 750 Chicago IL 60661 262033192 501(c)(6) 10000 General Support Association Forum Foundation 10 S Riverside Plaza Suite 800 Chicago IL 60606 363537786 501(c)(3) 9000 General Support 7 1 Form 990, Schedule I, Part I, Line 2: Senior-level management are involved with activities related to the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award and were able to monitor the use of contributed funds. Monitoring of the Illinois Performance Excellence support was accomplished through ACHE's involvement in organizational training. American College of Healthcare Executives' CEO was on the board of directors for the Institute for Diversity in Health Management and was able to monitor the use of contributed funds. Health Administration Press (a division of ACHE's related Foundation) works with AUPHA throughout the year attending programs, as well as, involvement with AUPHA in our royalty program. ACHE is on the advisory council of Enroll America and is able to monitor use of support through this capacity. NAHSE and the National Forum for Latino Healthcare Executives are affinity groups similar to ACHE in mission and vision. Senior ACHE managers interface with these organizations on a continuous basis and thus monitor the use of ACHE's financial support. The same is true for the Association Forum Foundation.
