| Primary Exempt Purpose | The primary exempt purpose of Physicians for Haiti, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, is to support the educational and professional development of Haitian physicians through the provision of travel and project grants, the organization of educational and leadership conferences in Haiti, and the development of computer-based learning materials for Haitian physicians. | PrimaryExemptPurpose |

| Description Program Service AccomDescriptionProgramServiceAccom | Grants And AllocationsGrantsAndAllocations | Program Service ExpensesProgramServiceExpenses |
|---|---|---|
| The provision of grants for Haitian physicians to attend medical conferences in the US. In 2012, seven doctors received grants that enabled them to attend three high-profile conferences in New Haven, CT and Boston, MA, and then conducted teaching sessions for their colleagues in Haiti upon their return. Thus, we estimate that there were 7 direct and approximately 200 indirect beneficiaries of this program. | 10604 | 11277 |
| The organization of Haiti-based continuing medical education and leadership conferences for Haitian doctors and nurses. Over 140 Haitian health professionals attended the largest conference, and approximately 25 each of four smaller conferences. We estimate that over 200 individuals benefited from this service in all in 2012. | 0 | 8792 |
| In December 2012, we introduced Pataje Sante, an innovative leadership development program that combines leadership training for hospital staff in Haiti with training in the development of quality improvement programs. This program currently has 20 participants (direct beneficiaries) at St. Boniface Hospital in Fond-des-Blancs, Haiti, with indirect benefit accruing to approximately 75 other staff members there. | 0 | 3711 |
| Other program service accomplishments in 2012 included: 1) medical education training for committee chairs ($1500 total, $0 of which was grants); 2) expenses related to nurse training programs in Haiti ($1070, $0 of which was grants); 3) a Visiting Professor Program that connect US-based experts with Haitian institutions interested in their areas of expertise ($2199, $1186 of which was grants); 4) increasing awareness about the need for our approach through academic presentations ($455, $455 of which was grants); 5) laying the groundwork for our first annual Social Medicine Course, scheduled for July 2013 ($2019, $0 of which was grants); 6) supporting our Advocacy's Committee's presentations to United Nations staff about the cholera epidemic ($1047, none of which was grants); 7) supporting the efforts of two Boston-based partner organizations with approaches that complement our own ($550, $550 of which was grants); 8) developing a set of web-based learning resources than includes interactive learning modules, discussion forums, and evidence-based Powerpoint lectures for use by residencies in Haiti ($0 - this program area is implemented entirely through the efforts of volunteers); and 9) supporting the growth of our career development program in Haiti ($324, $324 of which was grants). | 2515 | 9162 |

| F99Z_P01_S00_L10 | Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 10 | This total includes the following: Travel grants to enable Haitian physicians to attend medical conferences in the US (see part III; $10,604 in grants); a need-based grant to a physician trainee that enabled her to travel to Haiti as a visiting professor ($1,186); a monthly communication stipend to the leaders of a group of Haitian physicians to facilitate our work with them ($324); a grant to one of our volunteers to support research presentation at a conference ($455); and two contributions made to local partner organizations that work in Haiti ($550). |
| F99Z_P01_S00_L16 | Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 | Description;Amount^Costs related to 4 small medical education conferences in Haiti;1203|Costs related to organizing one large medical education conference in Haiti;6243|Nursing program costs including lodging for staff and training supplies;1070|Advocacy committee expenses in Haiti including travel and transportation;1047|Kidnap and Ransom and Directors and Officers Insurance;2567|Board and staff meeting expenses;1395|Items for StartSomeGood online fundraising;200|Office supplies and filing fees and finance charges;420|Training for P4H staff;1500|Monthly Paychex payroll fees and wire transfer fees;606^Total;16251^ |
| F99Z_P03_S00_L32 | Form 990-EZ, Part III, Line 32 | In 2012, nearly 50 volunteers, many of them medical professionals, devoted an estimated 6,500 total hours to our work and, in most cases, personally funded their trips to Haiti to support our efforts. The work done during over 1,500 of these volunteered hours required medical training, and thus may be considered donations of "medically skilled time." Given that our organization relies heavily on the service and expertise of our dedicated volunteers, many of whom provided us with services (including the development of educational materials, translation, web development, etc) that would otherwise have needed to be purchased, and because the value of donated services is not taken into account on Form 990, the figure on line 32 is far lower than it would be if the value of donated time and services were included. We therefore also include here the estimated total value of the donated time and unreimbursed expenses incurred by our volunteers in 2012, in order to provide a more accurate picture of the small percentage of our true "assets" that we devote to non-programmatic expenses: $207,687. (This figure is a conservative estimate based on Independent Sector's 2011 estimated value of volunteer time of $21.79 per hour for all volunteer hours not requiring specialized skills; the Bureau of Labor Statistics' 2011 mean hourly wage data for volunteer hours requiring specialized skills; and the out-of-pocket, unreimbursed travel costs incurred by volunteers traveling to Haiti on P4H business.) |
