Form990 Schedule H Part VI Form990ScheduleHPartVI (18 entries)

ExplanationExplanation	IdentifierIdentifier
Part I, Line 3c: Hospital Services for uninsured patients automatically qualify for a discount in 2011, regardless of the patient's financial status. The discount for 2011 was 60% at Ochsner Medical Center, Ochsner Hospital-Elmwood, Ochsner Medical Center-West Bank Campus, and Ochsner Medical Center-Baton Rouge and 75% at Ochsner Medical Center-North Shore.
Part I, Line 6a: The community benefit report prepared by Ochsner Clinic Foundation is representative of the entire health system, including Ochsner Clinic Foundation. The amounts reported in Schedule H are those amounts that are either directly incurred by Ochsner Clinic Foundation or those that have been allocated to Ochsner Clinic Foundation as a reimbursement to another organization.
Part I, Line 7: For charity care at cost, the ratio of total patient care cost to total charges from Worksheet C of the Medicare cost reports for each hospital was applied to that hospital's total charity care charges from Worksheet S-10. For Research and Education, cost allocation was used. Revenue for Research and Education includes both governmental and non-governmental sources.
Part I, Line 7, Column (f): The Bad Debt expense included on Form 990, Part IX, Line 25, Column (A), but subtracted for purposes of calculating the percentage in this column is $ 74503546.
Part II: Ochsner's economic development activities support the education of youths in its service area, which will create more educated, capable adults. In one sense, this support will provide the youths the opportunity to get a better education, which will enable them to afford healthcare coverage for their families. In another sense, this support enables them to become educated, which allows them to better understand their healthcare. Finally, some of those youths will eventually become healthcare professionals, thus enhancing the healthcare available to others. An example of an economic development activity is Jefferson Dollars for Scholars, in which Ochsner provides the funding for an average of 10 students per year to earn a college scholarship, as well as providing other academic opportunities throughout the Ochsner system.Ochsner's workforce development includes several programs which enable community members to learn about future careers, including healthcare. An example of the programs that Ochsner provides is the STAR program, a free, five-week summer program that provides qualified high school students with a unique opportunity to work in a student healthcare laboratory setting.Ochsner also works with the Girls Scouts Louisiana-East to provide a free Saturday program for Girl Scouts to earn one of their badges by working with Ochsner employee volunteers on various experiments.
Part III, Line 4: Any discounts provided or payments made to a particular patient account are applied to that patient account prior to any bad debt write-off and are thus, not included in bad debt expense. The provision for uncollectible accounts is based upon management's assessment of historical and expected net collections considering historical business and economic conditions, trends in health care coverages, and other collection indicators. Periodically, management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon historical write-off experience by payor category. The results of this review are then used to make modifications to the provision for uncollectible receivables. After satisfaction of amounts due from insurance, the System follows established guidelines for placing certain past due patient balances with collection agencies, subject to the terms of certain restrictions on collection efforts as determined by the system.Bad debt expense at cost is calculated by applying the ratio of patient care cost to charges from Worksheet C of the Medicare cost reports for each hospital to the bad debt expense calculated using the above methodology.
Part III, Line 8: Medicare shortfall is not considered community benefit.Total revenue from Medicare has been taken from the E Series in the Medicare Cost Reports. They do not include Medicare Advantage or payments related to Education or Research, in compliance with the instructions. Worksheet D Part V Line 202 Column 5 was used for outpatient costs and Worksheet D-1 Part II Line 49, and Worksheet D-1 Part III Line 86, and Worksheet E Part A Line 55 was used for inpatient costs. The cost reports for Ochsner Clinic Foundation (Provider No. 19-0036) and Ochsner Bayou LLC (Provider No. 19-1324) cover the period 1/1/2011 - 12/31/2011. The cost report for Ochsner Medical Center - Baton Rouge (Provider No. 19-0202) covers the period 10/1/2010 - 9/30/2011. The cost report for Ochsner Medical Center - North Shore (Provider No. 19-0204) covers the period 4/1/2011 - 3/31/2012; however, at the time Schedule H was prepared, the Ochsner Medical Center - North Shore cost report had not yet been filed, so the numbers provided are tentative.
Part III, Line 9b: Upon granting approval for 100% assistance, all collection efforts for that account will cease, the account will not be turned over to a collection agency, and Ochsner will not impose extraordinary collection efforts such as wage garnishments or liens.

Part VI, Line 2: Ochsner serves the needs of the various communities throughout Southeast Louisiana through its commitment is to exemplary patient care, medical research and education. Ochsner Clinic Foundation is part of Ochsner Health System, which comprises a total of eight hospitals (including two satellite locations) and approximately 40 health centers in the major population centers of Southeast Louisiana, including New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Bayou, and Northshore regions, when Ochsner Clinic Foundation and Ochsner Community Hospitals (an affiliated 501(c)(3) corporation) are combined. Healthcare is provided where people live, work and play. With over 12,000 combined employees, Ochsner employees work and live in the communities served. Ochsner Clinic Foundation is responsible for six of the eight hospitals, all 40 health centers, and over 11,000 of the employees.In order to identify the needs of the community, Ochsner reviews local and state publicly available data regarding the health status and issues in our region. Ochsner works with community organizations that collect information on their areas of focus to identify trends and areas where we have expertise that can make an impact. Ochsner collaborate with multiple community stakeholders to identify specific community needs in its regions. Ochsner then reviews these needs and determines where it can best use its resources and expertise to affect those needs. One of Ochsner's main focuses is to develop partnerships to address root causes of issues.Ochsner's principles to guide its community service and community benefit decisions as follows:1. Participate or lead in those areas where our presence matters. Our contribution to success must be necessary and evident.2. Concentrate on those areas which play to our strengths, so we are more likely to succeed in our efforts.3. Ochsner's approach to community needs is to focus on the correction of root causes of problems rather than on the symptoms of those problems.4. When possible, partner with others, so we can both succeed for the benefit of the community. Many of the major problems which confront us are beyond the ability of only one organization to solve.To illustrate the implementation of its community benefit principles, Ochsner saw a need to improve the quality healthcare in its service area. Areas that needed improvement included more manpower for services, specifically physicians. In 2009, Ochsner initiated a partnership with the University of Queensland Medical School. Through this program, students from the United States can experience the benefits of both a world class university and a world class healthcare organization. The first two years of the program will be in the classrooms at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia. The next two years are spent at Ochsner Medical Center, in a multi-dimensional integrated system that will provide experiences across the continuum of healthcare and medical practice, in addition to clinical requirements. Many of the physicians that complete the program will return to New Orleans to fill the gap in healthcare that Ochsner identified.
Part VI, Line 3: All uninsured patients are screened for Medicaid. This process takes place at the time of service, inpatient admissions, and if the patient is not screened at the time, the patient is contacted at home to determine eligibility. In 2011, Ochsner was able to obtain Medicaid coverage for approximately 18,000 patients. If the patients do not qualify for Medicaid, then they will be evaluated under the financial assistance policy.Internal customer service departments and external partners including collection agencies provide patients with financial assistance applications if patients express concerns about the inability to pay outstanding balances. Ochsner has placed signs in all facilities with respect to charity care, and brochures and the charity care policy are included in every patient statement. Ochsner also offers no interest payment plan options with payment terms ranging from six to 60 months.
Part VI, Line 4: Ochsner Clinic Foundation is a multi-specialty healthcare delivery system consisting of six hospitals (including two satellite locations) and over 40 health centers in Louisiana. Ochsner Clinic Foundation is part of Ochsner Health System, southeast Louisiana's largest non-profit, academic, multi-specialty, healthcare delivery system with eight hospitals (including two satellite locations) and over 40 health centers in Louisiana (as of December 31, 2011). Ochsner employs over 1,000 physicians in over 80 medical specialties and subspecialties.Ochsner Clinic Foundation's patients vary in age, gender, and race due to the multi-specialty nature of the system. Overall, the state of Louisiana has the fourth highest poverty level in the nation as of 2011 estimates with a poverty level of 18.0%.Ochsner Clinic Foundation's hospitals serve the New Orleans metropolitan area, the greater Baton Rouge area, the North Shore, and the Bayou area. Ochsner Medical Center (the Jefferson Highway campus), Ochsner Hospital - Elmwood, and Ochsner Medical Center-Westbank Campus serve the New Orleans metropolitan area. The population of the New Orleans region was estimated at approximately 1,191,000 in 2011. The New Orleans metropolitan area has approximately 201,000 uninsured individuals, or approx. 16.9% of the total population. The original Ochsner facility, Ochsner Medical Center, is located in Jefferson Parish, LA, approximately 1 mile from the western boundary of the city of New Orleans.

Part VI, Line 5: Having a diverse representation of the community in the governing boards is an important part of making sure all aspects of the community we serve are being touched by the mission and vision of the organization. The by-laws of both Ochsner Clinic Foundation and Ochsner Health System call for 10 members of the total 19 board members to be independent community members. The Chief Executive Officer serves on the Board by virtue of his or her office; however, a majority of Board members are prominent multi-disciplinary business and community leaders. The remainder of the Board members are senior physician employees of Ochsner Clinic Foundation elected by their peers in accordance with Ochsner Clinic Foundation by-laws.Ochsner Clinic Foundation is an educational and research-oriented medical center, operating one of the nation's largest accredited non-university based graduate medical education programs, covering 44 different medical, surgical and specialty programs. Ochsner partners with the Louisiana State University and Tulane University Medical Schools, in addition to a consortium relationship with Our Lady of Holy Cross College for allied health and nursing programs. In 2009, Ochsner opened the Ochsner Clinical School in partnership with the University of Queensland, Australia to provide expanded opportunity for medical students that are U.S. citizens.Approximately 350 open clinical research trials in almost every specialty are ongoing and Ochsner operates ten basic science/transitional research laboratories.In addition to the preceding examples, Ochsner provides support in many ways that are not easily quantifiable and thus have not been included in the Community Building Activities in Part II. This support includes the following activities, among many others:The Ochsner Medical Library holds training sessions on and off site to teach users how to find and evaluate medical information available on the Internet. In addition to housing thousands of resources and answering reference questions in a traditional library setting, the Ochsner Medical Library actively brings its resources out to its patients and the community. Librarians also round the hospital with a notebook laptop computer and offer the "Outreach Express" service for patients who are in the hospital and have questions about their diagnosis, treatment or other issues.To help further promote the health of the community, Ochsner created the Choose Healthy initiative with a local grocery store chain which serves the same geographical region to educate shoppers. Ochsner nutritionists have identified over 500 items in the stores that meet healthy choice standards and these are marked with shelf talkers for easy identification on the aisles. The Choose Healthy initiative offers healthy cooking demonstrations, health screenings, and educational classes in the stores at no charge. There is also a website which offers shopping lists, recipes, healthy living tips and videos. All of this is available to the general public at no charge. In addition to providing quality medical care to patients who visit Ochsner's hospitals and clinics, Ochsner has embraced the concept that good health doesn't begin at the doctor's office, it begins where you live, learn, work and play. Programs have been developed to promote health in our communities through education and provision of healthcare services. Some significant activities are listed below:Ochsner provides community health fairs in all our regions by organizing its own fairs and by providing staff for events being offered by other organizations. Ochsner also hosts educational forums about specific health related topics through our Hello Health programs. These are held in the community as well as on WLAE TV, a public television station in New Orleans. Ochsner staff members have also attended numerous community group meetings in order to provide health education information.Ochsner sponsors and participates in multiple programs that address community economic and workforce development for the greater good. These activities support the community by offering Ochsner's expertise andresources, including sponsoring fund raising events of community organizations, and providing financial support for scholarship programs.Ochsner provides support to numerous schools, both public and parochial, throughout Southeast Louisiana, including three "adopted" schools in the New Orleans/Jefferson Parish area.

Part I, Lines 4a-b	Line 4b: Patrick Quinlan, M.D., Chief Executive Officer; Warner Thomas, President & Chief Operating Officer; Scott Posecai, Sr. Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; and Bobby Brannon, Executive Vice President and Treasurer participate in a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) which is part of the terms and conditions of their employment contracts with Ochsner Health System and Ochsner Clinic Foundation and is based on a targeted replacement of a set percentage of their salary at age 65. The SERP is classified as a Supplemental Non-Qualified Retirement Plan. This benefit is funded in a Trust Account with Capital One Bank. The increases in actuarial value during 2011 were $0; $854,633; $65,253; and $0; respectively.
Part I, Line 6	The Physician and Executive Compensation Committee of the Ochsner Clinic Foundation Board of Directors reviews and approves all officer executive incentive plans, which include those for the Officers; the CEO, President, CFO, Treasurer, Regional Medical Directors, and Executive Vice Presidents. For the 2010 incentive plan, which was paid in 2011, there were four weighted components: a System Financial Metric which consists of Operating Margin, a Quality and Patient Satisfaction Metric, a Human Capital Metric that consists of turnover and employee engagement survey results, and a Subjective metric based on their personal performance targets. The subjective metric is assigned for the CEO by the Physician and Executive Compensation Committee and assigned for the other executives by the CEO then reviewed by the Physician and Executive Compensation Committee. Metrics other than subjective are built on percent improvement year over year. The CEO and officers did meet annual targets as set by the terms and conditions of their employment contracts and therefore the compensation committee approved the payment of the Annual Incentive Plan which was recorded as part of their compensation in 2011. All bonus amounts are provided in Schedule J Part II in Column B(ii).
Part I, Line 7	Subjective components of incentive plan are described in description of Part I, Line 6.
Part III	Part II, Column B(iii), Other Reportable Compensation for Patrick Quinlan, M.D., Chief Executive Officer; Warner Thomas, President & Chief Operating Officer; Scott Posecai, Sr. Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; and Bobby Brannon, Executive Vice President, Director of Finance, and Treasurer includes $1,687,861; $628,489; $616,669; and $0, respectively, as amounts includable in income under Section 457(f) due to vesting. A portion of this amount attributable to prior years has been reported by Ochsner Clinic Foundation in Column C Retirement and Other Deferred Compensation for the taxable years in which the respective amounts were deferred by the employee by section 457(f) but not substantially vested.

	Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 1	1b: The Articles of Incorporation provide that no action of the Board may be resolved unless a majority of the independent directors present approve the matter. Thus, even in situations where there is not an absolute majority of independent directors in office, those independent directors in office control Ochsner Health System's activities.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 2	Dr. Guthrie and Dr. Robichaux have a business relationship. Dr. Quinlan and Mr. Suquet have a business relationship.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6	Ochsner Clinic Foundation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ochsner Health System, a related 501(c)(3) organization. Ochsner Health System is the sole member of Ochsner Clinic Foundation. Ochsner Clinic Foundation has no capital stock and only one class of membership.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7a	The Community Directors shall be nominated exclusively by the nominating committee of the board of directors of the Member.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11	One or more members of senior management reviews the return. The return is also reviewed by Deloitte Tax LLP, the company's tax advisors. The Audit and Oversight Committee, which is comprised of independent directors, is then provided the return prior to the filing date and given the opportunity to review and discuss the returns with management/staff. The meeting to review the 2011 return was held on December 19, 2012. A copy of the return is then provided to each member of the Board of Directors electronically and comments are solicited from the entire Board.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c	Officers, directors, trustees, and key employees are required to complete a conflicts of interest disclosure form annually, within 30 days of becoming an employee, or within 10 days of a change in business circumstances not previously disclosed. The Vice President of Corporate Integrity reviews disclosures and determines whether action is necessary or if the disclosure needs to be reviewed by the Conflicts of Interest Committee. In addition, employees that do not fall within the scope of the Conflict of Interest Disclosure policy annually certify through the Annual Employee Evaluation process their compliance with the Conflict of Interest policy.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15	All CEO and officer compensation and benefits arrangements, including salary and bonus incentive plans, are reviewed and approved by the Executive and Senior Physician Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (Compensation Committee). No substantive change to the compensation or benefits packages is made until Committee approval is granted in accordance with Intermediate Sanctions guidelines. The Compensation Committee is without conflicts of interest and uses an independent external consultant. Appropriate data is applied to determine the comparability of fair market value pay and all actions are appropriately documented. In order to meet the requirements of the IRS Intermediate Sanctions regulations, the Compensation Committee identified the "disqualified individuals" that are in a position to exercise substantial influence over the company's operations. These individuals are the members of the Executive Officers Committee (EOC), Regional Medical Directors, physician board members and Section Heads for key departments. For disqualified individuals, the compensation review also includes the cost of benefits such as the company portion of medical and dental benefits, malpractice insurance, payments for 401K matching and pension payments. A different review process is used for Physicians. Annually, the Corporate Integrity department reviews the salary of each employed physician. This review includes a comparison of physician salaries against national survey data for their specialty. Three surveys are used for the review: McGladrey & Pullen, the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) and American Medical Group Association (AMGA). The Physician Compensation department provides salary data for each physician including base salary, stipends, on-call pay, etc. If it is determined that a physician's compensation is higher than the survey data, the total work Relative Value Units (RVUs) are compared to the survey data. This review is performed to ensure their pay is comparable to the work performed. Comparable benefit survey data is obtained periodically from McGladrey & Pullen. Compensation for other non-physician key employees is reviewed by senior executives who take market value research into consideration when determining compensation levels.
	Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19	Financial statements for Ochsner Clinic Foundation are made available to the public quarterly via www.dacbond.com. All governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available upon written request to the Corporate Integrity Department.
Joint Venture Procedure	Part VI, Section B, 16b	When the organization evaluates its participation in a joint venture, the transactions are handled carefully to ensure that the organization's tax-exempt status is intact with regard to the arrangement. The operations of the joint venture are carefully reviewed by management and legal counsel, and the transaction is not entered into unless it is a reflection of the organization's tax-exempt purpose. A clause is inserted into the joint venture agreement that the operations of the joint venture must be performed in a manner that will not jeopardize the organization's tax-exempt status.
	Part VII, Section A, Line 1a, Column E	Other Reportable Compensation for Patrick Quinlan, M.D., Chief Executive Officer; Warner Thomas, President & Chief Operating Officer; Scott Posecai, Sr. Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; and Bobby Brannon, Executive Vice President, Director of Finance, and Treasurer includes $1,687,861; $628,489; $616,669; and $0, respectively, as amounts includable in income under Section 457(f) due to vesting.

Additional time spent on boards, committees and through fulfilling other responsibilities as a member of one or more Boards of the varied Ochsner organizations is shown as a nominal amount for Ochsner Health System and/or Ochsner Community Hospitals. As a Senior Physician Director of an integrated health system, these individuals devote time to board activities of all 501(c)(3) members of the system to varying degrees including Ochsner Health System, Ochsner Clinic Foundation and Ochsner Community Hospitals. Those directors listed as "Board Member Sr Phys" on the Form 990 for Ochsner Clinic Foundation (EIN 72-0502505) are compensated entirely due to their role as a Senior Physician of a member of the integrated health system.

Explanation	Statement Regarding Hurricane Isaac The taxpayer's tax records and its tax professional/practitioner's office were located in New Orleans, LA during and after the devastation caused by Hurricane Isaac. The IRS granted special tax relief in Issue Number IR 2012-70 dated September 5, 2012 by postponing taxpayer filing and payment deadlines until January 11, 2013 for affected taxpayers hit hardest by Hurricane Isaac. Pursuant to Notice 2012-70 dated September 5, 2012 taxpayers who reside in or have a business located in the following parishes qualify for the relief: Ascension, Assumption, East Baton Rouge, East Feliciana, Iberville, Jefferson, Lafourche, Livingston, Orleans, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. Charles, St. Helena, St. James, St. John the Baptist, St. Mary, St. Tammany, Tangipahoa, Terrebonne, Washington and West Feliciana. The Louisiana parishes listed above constitute a covered disaster area for purposes of Treas. Reg. Section 301.7508A-1(d)(2) and are entitled to the relief detailed below.Taxpayers considered to be affected taxpayers eligible for the postponement of time to file returns, pay taxes and perform other time-sensitive acts are those taxpayers listed in Treas. Reg. Section 301.7508A-1(d)(1), and include individuals who live, and businesses whose principal place of business is located, in the covered disaster area. Taxpayers not in the covered disaster area, but whose books, records, or tax professionals' offices are in the covered disaster area, are also entitled to relief. Under section 7508A, the IRS gives affected taxpayers until January 11, 2013 to file most tax returns (including individual, corporate, and estate and trust income tax returns; partnership returns, S corporation returns, and trust returns; estate, gift, and generation-skipping transfer tax returns; and employment and certain excise tax returns) or to make tax payments, including estimated tax payments, that have either an original or extended due date occurring on or after August 26, 2012 and on or before January 11, 2013. The taxpayer respectfully requests that any interest and/or penalties that may be due as a result of the taxpayer filing its tax returns and paying its taxes after the normal extended due dates be waived. The late filing of the returns and payment of taxes after the normal extended due dates for the returns was not due to negligence or willful disregard for the law. The taxpayer has always filed its tax returns and paid its taxes by the due dates. However, due to circumstances beyond its control, the taxpayer was unable to meet the normal due dates for the returns and payments.	Explanation
