Form And Line Reference	PART I, LINE 2:	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	PROCEDURES FOR GRANTING FUNDS TO MSF OPERATIONAL CENTERS (OC) AND OTHER MSF ENTITIES. IN MSF USA, THE PROGRAM COMMITTEE (PC) OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS THE BODY WHICH HAS THE PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY OF OVERSEEING THE DISTRIBUTION OF PRIVATE GRANTS. THE PC REVIEWS FUNDING REQUESTS AND ALL FUNDING ISSUES, AND MAKES RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF PRIVATE GRANTS TO THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS (BOD). THE FULL BOD, TAKING THESE RECOMMENDATIONS INTO CONSIDERATION, HAS THE FINAL VOTE ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF ALL PRIVATE GRANTS. THE PC WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE PROGRAM AND FINANCE DEPARTMENTS OF MSF USA. THE PC HAS DELEGATED TO PROGRAM AND FINANCE STAFF THE AUTHORITY TO APPRAISE AND REVIEW GRANT PROPOSALS, REPORTS AND FUNDING REQUESTS, AND IN SOME CASES TO RESPOND TO REQUESTS FOR FUNDING, TO MAINTAIN COMMUNICATION WITH THE OCS MSF USA IS FUNDING, AND TO ATTEND RELEVANT OC OPERATIONAL MEETINGS ON THE PC'S BEHALF. THE GRANTS OFFICER MANAGES THE ADMINISTRATION INVOLVED IN THE DISTRIBUTION OF PRIVATE GRANTS AND KEEPS THE PC INFORMED OF ALL NECESSARY ISSUES RELATED TO PRIVATE GRANTS AND THE ENTITIES MSF USA IS FUNDING. AN INTERNAL GRANTS COMMITTEE, CHAIRED BY THE GRANTS OFFICER AND COMPRISED OF THE PROGRAM OFFICERS, FINANCE DIRECTOR AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, MEETS PERIODICALLY TO FOLLOW THE GRANTS PROCESS. IN THIS CAPACITY, PROGRAM DEPARTMENT STAFF AND THE GRANTS OFFICER MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE PC ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF PRIVATE GRANTS AND ON OTHER RELATED FUNDING ISSUES, WHICH THE PC TAKES INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN MAKING ITS RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE FULL BOD. THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR WILL OVERSEE ALL EMERGENCY GRANT REQUESTS. AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH FISCAL YEAR, THE PC SETS ITS GRANT MAKING STRATEGIC ORIENTATIONS AND PRIORITIES WHICH OUTLINES THE PC'S FUNDING CRITERIA FOR THE FISCAL YEAR. THE PC APPRAISES GRANTS AND FUNDING REQUESTS BASED ON THE STANDING GRANT MAKING STRATEGIC ORIENTATIONS AND PRIORITIES. AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH FISCAL YEAR,THE PC,IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE GRANTS OFFICER AND PROGRAM AND FINANCE STAFF, ALSO REVIEWS AND REVISES AS NECESSARY THE PRESENT DOCUMENT, TO ENSURE ALL PROCEDURES AND PROCESSES ARE UP TO DATE AND IN LINE WITH CURRENT STRATEGIC ORIENTATIONS AND PRIORITIES, AND WITH CURRENT US LEGAL REQUIREMENTS. THIS DOCUMENT INCLUDES PROCEDURES FOR 5 DISTINCT FUNDING PROCESSES: THE MSF FRANCE MULTIPURPOSE GRANT, THE NON FRANCE OC MULTIPURPOSE GRANT,THEMATIC FUNDING, EMERGENCY FUNDING, AND INDIVIDUAL PROJECT GRANTS. AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH FISCAL YEAR MSF USA INFORMS EACH OF THE OCS OF THE AMOUNT OF THEIR ANNUAL GRANT ENVELOPE, AFTER WHICH MSF USA AND EACH OC DETERMINE WHICH OF THE 5 PROCESSES WILL BE EMPLOYED FOR THE OC FOR THE FISCAL YEAR. ONE PROCESS IS EMPLOYED FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL OC, THOUGH EXCEPTIONALLY THE EMERGENCY FUNDING AND THEMATIC FUNDING CAN BE EMPLOYED IN CONJUNCTION WITH ONE ANOTHER WITH AN OC IN A GIVEN YEAR. FOLLOWING IS A BASIC OVERVIEW OF EACH OF THE 5 PROCESSES. THESE PROCESSES ARE DELINEATED IN MORE DETAIL IN PARTS 1-5 OF THE PRESENT DOCUMENT. MSF FRANCE MULTIPURPOSE GRANT PROCESS -PRIOR TO THE START OF THE FISCAL YEAR, MSF USA AND MSF F DISCUSS -AT A JOINT BOD MEETING OR OTHER VENUE-OR THROUGH MSF USA'S PARTICIPATION IN THE MSF F PROJECT WEEK, MSF F'S OPERATIONAL PLAN FOR THE YEAR. A MEMBER OF THE OCP GROUP COMMITTEE BRIEFS THE BOD ON MSF F'S OPERATIONAL PLAN. THE MSF F OPERATIONAL DIRECTOR MAY ALSO BE ASKED TO GIVE A PRESENTATION OF THE OPERATIONAL PLAN TO THE BOD. -MSF USA APPROVES ITS BUDGET AND INFORMS MSF F OF THE AMOUNT OF ITS MULTIPURPOSE GRANT. -MSF F SUBMITS ITS ANNUAL PLAN AND AN INITIAL LIST OF ALLOCATIONS AND COUNTRIES FOR WHICH THEY WILL USE THE MULTIPURPOSE GRANT. THE PC AND BOD VOTE ON THIS LIST OF COUNTRIES. THE PC AND BOD MAY DICTATE THAT THE MULTIPURPOSE GRANT NOT BE USED FOR CERTAIN COUNTRIES OR CONTEXTS, E.G. COUNTRIES SUBJECT TO U.S. GOVERNMENT SANCTIONS, ETC. -THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE YEAR, MSF USA MONITORS THE USE OF THESE FUNDS THROUGH MSF USA STAFF OR BOARD PARTICIPATION IN MSF F PROJECT DEVELOPMENT AND BUDGET MEETINGS, AND THROUGH REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE AND COOPERATION (E.G. NEW YORK DESK) WITH MSF F ON OPERATIONS. THESE MEETINGS MAY INCLUDE THE MSF F BUDGET COMMISSION, WEEK OF COORDINATORS, FINANCIAL MID YEAR REVIEW, PROJECT WEEK, BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND OTHER OPERATIONS MEETINGS, ETC. THE PC IS GIVEN REPORTS ON THE RELEVANT CONTENT OF THESE MEETINGS. PERIODIC FIELD VISITS ALSO SERVE AS A MONITORING TOOL. -THROUGHOUT THE YEAR MSF USA AND MSF F MAINTAIN ONGOING DISCUSSIONS ON FUNDING ISSUES.

THE SALARY SCHEDULE CONTAINS SEVEN GRADES OF SALARY LEVEL WITH SIX SALARY STEPS WITHIN EACH GRADE.

FORM 990,PART VI, LINE 1B AND PART VII, SECTION A	MSF-USA HAS A SIGNED AGREEMENT WITH THE AFFILIATE MSF ORGANIZATIONS TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING PAYMENTS TO US PERSONS FOR FIELD WORK DONE THROUGH AN AFFILIATE ORGANIZATION IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY. THE FOREIGN AFFILIATE IS THE EMPLOYER OF THE INDIVIDUAL AND REMITS FUNDS TO MSF-USA TO COVER THE AMOUNTS PAID BY MSF-USA ON BEHALF OF THE AFFILIATE ORGANIZATION. THE DECISION TO PAY FIELD WORKERS THIS WAY THROUGHOUT THE MSF NETWORK WAS MADE IN ORDER TO ENSURE PROPER PAYROLL TAXES AND REPORTING. FOUR OF MSF-USA'S BOARD MEMBERS DID FOREIGN FIELD WORK THROUGH A FOREIGN AFFILIATE DURING THE 2014 TAX YEAR. DR. DEAN MARCHBEIN WAS PAID $6,315 BY MSF-BELGIUM FOR ONE MISSION AS AN ANESTHESIOLOGIST FOR 39 DAYS IN AFGHANISTAN. DR. MICHAEL NEWMAN WAS PAID $3,023 BY MSF-FRANCE FOR HIS 7-DAY MISSION AS A SURGEON IN SOUTH SUDAN. THE SALARIES FOR THESE ASSIGNMENTS WERE BASED ON THE INTERNATIONAL SALARY POLICY USED FOR DETERMINING SALARIES FOR ALL INTERNATIONAL, INCLUDING US-BASED, STAFF WORKING ON OVERSEAS PROJECTS. IN THIS REGARD, MSF-USA WAS ACTING PRIMARILY AS A PAYROLL AGENT SINCE IT WAS SIMPLY TRANSMITTING MONEY FROM AFFILIATED ORGANIZATIONS TO THESE INDIVIDUALS FOR WORK DONE FOR THE AFFILIATED ORGANIZATIONS. BASED ON THE DEFINITION OF A RELATED ORGANIZATION PROVIDED IN SCHEDULE R, AFFILIATE ORGANIZATIONS ARE NOT RELATED ORGANIZATIONS. SINCE THE PAYMENTS TO THESE BOARD MEMBERS WERE MADE BY UNRELATED ORGANIZATIONS FOR SERVICES PROVIDED TO THOSE UNRELATED ORGANIZATIONS, THOSE AMOUNTS SHOULD NOT IMPAIR INDEPENDENCE. ADDITIONALLY, SINCE THE PAYMENTS ARE NOT FROM THE ORGANIZATION OR RELATED ORGANIZATIONS, THE AMOUNTS DO NOT NEED TO APPEAR ON PART VII.
SCHEDULE F, PART V	IN THE EVENT THAT THE FINAL EVENT DEVIATES FROM THE CONTRACT AGREEMENT OR FROM MSF USA'S AUDITED FINANCIALS OR THAT THE PROGRAMMATIC ACTIVITIES OR DESCRIPTIONS DEVIATE FROM THOSE AGREED UPON BY MSF USA, MSF USA MAY CONSIDER THE DEVIATION AN OVERPAYMENT OF FUNDS AND WILL ADJUST THE OC'S GRANT IN THE SUBSEQUENT YEAR, OR REQUIRE A REFUND. THEMATIC FUNDING PROCESS (USING HIV/AIDS AS AN EXAMPLE): AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR, THE OPERATIONAL DIRECTOR OR OTHER OC STAFF MEMBER JOINS A PC MEETING BY PHONE AND PRESENTS THE OC'S APPROACH TO HIV/AIDS FOR THE UPCOMING YEAR. THE OC SUBMITS A LIST OF THE HIV/AIDS PROJECTS THEY WOULD LIKE FUNDED FOR THE YEAR AND THE ALLOCATIONS. THE PC AND BOD REVIEWS THESE AND VOTES ON THE LIST. THE OC ALSO SUBMITS ITS ANNUAL PLAN TO MSF USA FOR THEIR REFERENCE. THE OC WILL BE ASKED TO GIVE A MID YEAR UPDATE ON HIV/AIDS OPERATIONS. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR THE OC AND MSF USA MAINTAIN AN ONGOING DIALOGUE ABOUT THE OC'S FUNDING NEEDS AS BUDGETS INCREASE AND DECREASE AND BASED ON RESTRICTED FUNDS THAT MSF USA RECEIVES FOR HIV/AIDS. THE LIST OF PROJECTS MAY CHANGE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR ACCORDING TO THESE CONSIDERATIONS. THESE CHANGES MUST BE MUTUALLY AGREED UPON BY THE OC AND MSF USA'S PROGRAM AND FINANCE DEPARTMENTS, PURSUANT TO AUTHORITY DELEGATED TO THOSE DEPARTMENTS BY THE PC. AT OR AFTER THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR (WITHIN 90 DAYS), THE OC SUBMITS A FINAL LIST OF PROJECTS AND ALLOCATIONS, FOR PC AND BOD APPROVAL. THE PC AND BOD CAN REQUEST MODIFICATIONS TO THIS LIST, BEFORE GIVING THEIR APPROVAL. THE OC MUST SUBMIT ALL EXTERNAL AUDITS CONDUCTED ON FIELD PROJECTS OR COUNTRY MISSIONS FUNDED BY MSF USA, AND ANY INTERNAL AUDITS/EVALUATIONS WHICH DISCLOSE ADVERSE FINANCIAL OR PROGRAMMATIC FINDINGS. AFTER THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR, THE OC MUST SUBMIT FINAL NARRATIVES AND BUDGETS FOR EACH OF THE THEMATIC PROJECTS FUNDED BY MSF USA. THE GRANTS OFFICER REVIEWS THE FINAL REPORTS AND ENSURES THAT THE NARRATIVE CONTENT AND FINAL FINANCIALS CONFORM TO THAT PREVIOUSLY APPROVED BY THE PC/BOD. THE PC IS INFORMED OF THE RECEIPT AND REVIEW OF THE REPORTS. IN THE EVENT THAT THE FINAL REPORTS DEVIATE FROM THE CONTRACT AGREEMENT OR FROM MSF USA'S AUDITED FINANCIALS OR THAT THE PROGRAMMATIC ACTIVITIES OR DESCRIPTIONS DEVIATE FROM THOSE AGREED UPON BY MSF USA, MSF USA MAY CONSIDER THE DEVIATION AN OVERPAYMENT OF FUNDS AND WILL ADJUST THE OC'S GRANTS IN THE SUBSEQUENT YEAR OR REQUIRE A REFUND. EMERGENCY FUNDING PROCESS: AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR, THE OPERATIONAL DIRECTOR OR OTHER OC STAFF MEMBER JOINS THE MSF USA PC AND/OR BOARD MEETING BY PHONE AND PRESENTS ITS APPROACH TO EMERGENCIES FOR THE UPCOMING YEAR (GENERAL OPERATIONAL DEFINITION OF OR APPROACH TO EMERGENCIES, BUDGET, EMERGENCY HUMAN RESOURCES). THE PC AND BOD, TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION THE PRESENTATION OF THE OC'S APPROACH TO EMERGENCIES, VOTE WHETHER TO ENDORSE USING MSF USA FUNDS FOR THE OC'S EMERGENCY OPERATIONS IN THE UPCOMING YEAR. IF THE PC AND BOD VOTE TO ENDORSE THE USE OF MSF USA'S FUNDS FOR THE OC'S EMERGENCY OPERATIONS, THEN, AS EMERGENCIES OCCUR AND OPERATIONS ARE INITIATED, THE OC REQUESTS APPROXIMATE AMOUNTS FOR SPECIFIC EMERGENCY OPERATIONS FROM MSF USA. THE PC DELEGATES TO THE MSF USA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR THE AUTHORITY TO RESPOND TO THESE REQUESTS ON THE PC'S BEHALF, TO ENSURE THAT FUNDS ARE DISTRIBUTED IN A TIMELY MANNER. ONCE A REQUEST FOR FUNDING IS APPROVED BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, THE FUNDS CAN BE PAID TO THE OC IMMEDIATELY IF REQUESTED. FUNDS CAN BE REQUESTED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, AS EMERGENCIES OCCUR, THOUGH IDEALLY 40% OF THE ENVELOPE WILL BE ALLOCATED AND PAID OUT BY JUNE. THE PC/BOD IS INFORMED OF THE REQUESTS AT THEIR NEXT MEETING AND VOTE TO RATIFY THE GRANT. IF THE PC/BOD REJECT A REQUEST THAT THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR HAS PREVIOUSLY APPROVED, THE FUNDS ALREADY DISTRIBUTED ARE CONSIDERED AN ADVANCE AND MUST BE ALLOCATED TO OTHER, APPROVED EMERGENCY OPERATIONS WITHIN THE FISCAL YEAR OR BE REFUNDED TO MSF USA. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR THE OC AND MSF USA MAINTAIN AN ONGOING DIALOGUE ABOUT THE OC'S FUNDING NEEDS AS EMERGENCY BUDGETS INCREASE AND DECREASE AND ABOUT RESTRICTED FUNDS THAT MSF USA RECEIVES FOR EMERGENCIES. THE OC WILL BE ASKED TO GIVE A MID YEAR UPDATE ON EMERGENCY OPERATIONS. AT OR AFTER THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR (WITHIN 90 DAYS), THE OC SUBMITS THE FINAL LIST OF PROJECTS AND ALLOCATIONS SHOWING HOW THEY USED THEIR EMERGENCY ENVELOPE., FOR PC AND BOD APPROVAL. THE PC AND BOD CAN REQUEST MODIFICATIONS TO THIS LIST, BEFORE GIVING THEIR APPROVAL. THE OC MUST SUBMIT ALL EXTERNAL AUDITS CONDUCTED ON FIELD PROJECTS OR COUNTRY MISSIONS FUNDED BY MSF USA, AND ANY INTERNAL AUDITS/EVALUATIONS WHICH DISCLOSE ADVERSE FINANCIAL OR PROGRAMMATIC FINDINGS. AFTER THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR, THE OC MUST SUBMIT FINAL NARRATIVES AND BUDGETS FOR EACH OF THE EMERGENCY PROJECTS FUNDED BY MSF USA. THE GRANTS OFFICER REVIEWS THE FINAL REPORTS AND ENSURES THAT THE NARRATIVE CONTENT AND FINAL FINANCIALS CONFORM TO THAT PREVIOUSLY APPROVED BY THE PC/BOD. THE PC IS INFORMED OF THE RECEIPT AND REVIEW OF THE REPORTS. IN THE EVENT THAT THE FINAL REPORTS DEVIATE FROM THE CONTRACT AGREEMENT OR FROM MSF USA'S AUDITED FINANCIALS OR THAT THE PROGRAMMATIC ACTIVITIES OR DESCRIPTIONS DEVIATE FROM THOSE AGREED UPON BY MSF USA, MSF USA MAY CONSIDER THE DEVIATION AN OVERPAYMENT OF FUNDS AND WILL ADJUST THE OC'S GRANTS IN THE SUBSEQUENT YEAR OR REQUIRE A REFUND. INDIVIDUAL PROJECT GRANT PROCESS: AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR, MSF USA INFORMS THE OC OF THE AMOUNT OF ITS GRANT ENVELOPE AND THE OC SUBMITS A TENTATIVE LIST OF PROJECTS FOR WHICH THEY WILL REQUEST FUNDING, BROKEN DOWN ACCORDING TO THE THREE CATEGORY GRANT SYSTEM: "PRIORITY"- PREVIOUSLY FUNDED PROJECTS; "STANDARD"- PROJECTS NOT PREVIOUSLY FUNDE; "EMERGENCY"- GRANTS FOR EMERGENCY OPERATIONS AS THEY ARE INITIATED. FOR EACH PROJECT, THE OC SUBMITS A NARRATIVE PROPOSAL AND A BUDGET PROPOSAL. THE GRANTS OFFICER OF MSF USA REVIEWS THESE AND WRITES AN APPRAISAL OF THE PROJECT, IN CONSULTATION WITH PROGRAM OR MEDICAL STAFF AS NECESSARY. EACH APPRAISAL IS PRESENTED TO THE PC. THE PC VOTES TO RECOMMEND OR NOT RECOMMEND THAT THE BOD FUND THE PROJECT. THE BOD THEN VOTES TO APPROVE OR REJECT FUNDING OF THE PROJECT. ADDITIONAL ALLOCATIONS TO THE SAME PROJECT OR REVISIONS OF THE ALLOCATION AMOUNT TO A PARTICULAR PROJECT MUST GO THROUGH THE PC AND BOD APPROVAL PROCESS. THE OC MUST SUBMIT ALL EXTERNAL AUDITS CONDUCTED ON FIELD PROJECTS OR COUNTRY MISSIONS FUNDED BY MSF USA, AND ANY INTERNAL AUDITS/EVALUATIONS WHICH DISCLOSE ADVERSE FINANCIAL OR PROGRAMMATIC FINDINGS. AT THE END OF THE YEAR THE OC SUBMITS A FINAL NARRATIVE AND FINANCIAL REPORT FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL PROJECT GRANT FUNDED WITH MSF USA FUNDS. THE GRANTS OFFICER REVIEWS THESE AND THE PC IS INFORMED OF THE RECEIPT AND REVIEW OF EACH FINAL REPORT. IN THE EVENT THAT THE FINAL REPORTS DEVIATE FROM THE CONTRACT AGREEMENT OR FROM MSF USA'S AUDITED FINANCIALS OR THAT THE PROGRAMMATIC ACTIVITIES OR DESCRIPTIONS DEVIATE FROM THOSE AGREED UPON BY MSF USA, MSF USA MAY CONSIDER THE DEVIATION AN OVERPAYMENT OF FUNDS AND WILL ADJUST THE OC'S GRANTS IN THE SUBSEQUENT YEAR OR REQUIRE A REFUND.
