        <Identifier>Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:</Identifier>
        <ReturnReference>Part X, Line 2:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Certain controlled organizations are subject to income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the differences between the financial and income tax reporting basis of assets and liabilities based on enacted tax rates and laws. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination. The deferred income tax provision or benefit generally reflects the net change in deferred income tax assets and liabilities during the year. The current income tax provision reflects the tax consequences of revenues and expenses currently taxable or deductible on various income tax returns for the year reported. Sanford Health Foundation did not have an income tax liability at June 30, 2013; however, some related organizations have established reserves.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>The following officers, board members, and key employees are employees of Sanford or its related organizations. Many of these employees also serve on other related Sanford boards, or have business relationships with each other that span the organization as a whole: Christopher Meeker, Mark Paulson, Richard Hardie, Kelby Krabbenhoft, JoAnn Kunkel, Lisa Carlson and Brian Mortenson.</Explanation>

      <GeneralExplanation>
        <ReturnReference>Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Sanford is governed by a Board of Trustees (BOT) that has ultimate strategic and decision making authority. The BOT delegates certain activities and responsibilities to Boards of each of Sanford's subsidiaries. The unique nature and complexity of the subsidiaries requires each to have a delegated Board with a singular entity focus. Such bodies, referred to as Boards of Directors and Boards of Governors, address matters such as credentialing, accreditation standards, developing budgets, programs and facilities on an entity-specific basis, and generally consist of individuals distinct from the BOT. These Boards function much like committees in a traditional corporate structure. The BOT then act as a holding company Board, synthesizing and reconciling each entity's programs and budgets into a system-wide strategic plan. This structure of governance produces a significant number of trustees, governors and directors, creating a 400+ person collective which acts as a team of ambassadors for Sanford in their respective communities.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>The annual Conflict of Interest disclosure process is managed by the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO). The CCO is responsible for assuring that all completed forms are returned in a timely and complete manner. Conflict of Interest questionnaires are sent to System Trustees, members of the governing boards of subsidiary entities, officers, and key employees for all entities subject to the IRS Form 990 filings. The disclosures are summarized for review by the executive committee of the Board of Trustees, pursuant to policy. This review allows: 1) The Board to acquire an awareness of financial relationships of board members and key management employees and can invoke the recusal process on a case-by-case basis when potential conflicts are implicated in Board decisions and deliberations, and, 2) Gives the Board the opportunity to seek additional information and clarification about disclosures to determine potential conflicts of interest, and how to manage them.</Explanation>
