UNION GENERAL HEALTH SYSTEM SEGREGATED PORTFOLIO IS EXEMPTED FROM ALL LOCAL INCOME, PROFIT, OR CAPITAL GAINS TAXES UNTIL MAY 1, 2040 UNDER THE CAYMAN ISLANDS TAX CONCESSIONS LAW. THE CORPORATION APPLIES ACCOUNTING POLICIES THAT PRESCRIBE WHEN TO RECOGNIZE AND HOW TO MEASURE THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT EFFECTS OF INCOME TAX POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN ON ITS INCOME TAX RETURNS. THESE RULES REQUIRE MANAGEMENT TO EVALUATE THE LIKELIHOOD THAT, UPON EXAMINATION BY THE RELEVANT TAXING JURISDICTIONS, THOSE INCOME TAX POSITIONS WOULD BE SUSTAINED. BASED ON THAT EVALUATION, THE CORPORATION ONLY RECOGNIZES THE MAXIMUM BENEFIT OF EACH INCOME TAX POSITION THAT IS MORE THAN 50% LIKELY OF BEING SUSTAINED. TO THE EXTENT THAT ALL OR A PORTION OF THE BENEFITS OF AN INCOME TAX POSITION ARE NOT RECOGNIZED, A LIABILITY WOULD BE RECOGNIZED FOR THE UNRECOGNIZED BENEFITS, ALONG WITH ANY INTEREST AND PENALTIES THAT WOULD RESULT FROM DISALLOWANCE OF THE POSITION. SHOULD ANY SUCH PENALTIES AND INTEREST BE INCURRED, THEY WOULD BE RECOGNIZED AS OPERATING EXPENSES. BASED ON THE RESULTS OF MANAGEMENT'S EVALUATION, NO LIABILITY IS RECOGNIZED IN THE ACCOMPANYING BALANCE SHEET FOR UNRECOGNIZED INCOME TAX POSITIONS. FURTHER, NO INTEREST OR PENALTIES HAVE BEEN ACCRUED OR CHARGED TO EXPENSE AS OF APRIL 30, 2025 AND 2024 OR FOR THE YEARS THEN ENDED. THE CORPORATION'S TAX RETURNS ARE SUBJECT TO POSSIBLE EXAMINATION BY THE TAXING AUTHORITIES. FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES, THE TAX RETURNS ESSENTIALLY REMAIN OPEN FOR POSSIBLE EXAMINATION FOR A PERIOD OF THREE YEARS AFTER THE RESPECTIVE FILING DEADLINES OF THOSE RETURNS. |

| SCHEDULE H, PART I, LINE 7 | THE DATA REPORTED IN THIS AREA IS REPORTED AS INSTRUCTED BY CATHOLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATION'S "A GUIDE FOR PLANNING AND REPORTING COMMUNITY BENEFITS, 2008". THE COSTS FOR PART I, LINES 7A AND 7B WERE CALCULATED USING THE RATIO OF COSTS TO CHARGES USING WORKSHEET 2 IN THE INSTRUCTIONS TO FORM 990 SCHEDULE H. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 2 | AMOUNTS INCLUDED ON PART III LINE 2 REPRESENT THE AMOUNT OF CHARGES CONSIDERED UNCOLLECTIBLE. PURSUANT TO ASU NO. 2014-09 (TOPIC 606) DISCUSSED IN MORE DETAIL BELOW, THE AMOUNT IDENTIFIED AS BAD DEBT ON SCHEDULE H, PART II, LINE 2 PRIMARILY REPRESENTS AMOUNTS ESTIMATED AT THE TRANSACTION DATE THAT ARE CONSIDERED A PRICE CONCESSION. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 3 | BASED ON PAST EXPERIENCE, THE ORGANIZATION HAS FOUND THAT THERE IS A PORTION OF BAD DEBT THAT IS GENERALLY ATTRIBUTABLE TO CHARITY CARE. BASED ON ECONOMIC CENSUS RECORDS, 10.9% OF PERSONS ARE BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL, WE ESTIMATE THAT 10.9% IF THE BAD DEBT AMOUNT ON LINE 2 WOULD BE ATTRIBUTABLE TO THOSE PATIENTS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY HAD THEY COMPLETED AN APPLICATION. |
| SCHEDULE H, PART III, LINE 4 | IN MAY 2014, THE FASB ISSUED ASU NO. 2014-09, REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS (TOPIC 606), WHICH IS A NEW COMPREHENSIVE REVENUE RECOGNITION STANDARD. THE CORE PRINCIPLE OF THE REVENUE MODEL IS THAT AN ENTITY RECOGNIZES REVENUE TO DEPICT THE TRANSFER OF PROMISED GOODS OR SERVICES TO CUSTOMERS IN AN AMOUNT THAT REFLECTS THE CONSIDERATION TO WHICH THE ENTITY EXPECTS TO BE ENTITLED IN EXCHANGE FOR THOSE GOODS OR SERVICES. THE CORPORATION ADOPTED ASU NO. 2014-09 ON MAY 1, 2020 USING THE FULL RETROSPECTIVE METHOD OF TRANSITION WITH PRACTICAL EXPEDIENTS IN FASB ASC 606-10-65-1(F) WITH NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT. THE CORPORATION PERFORMED AN ANALYSIS OF REVENUE STREAMS AND TRANSACTIONS UNDER ASU NO. 2014-09. IN PARTICULAR, FOR NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE, THE CORPORATION PERFORMED AN ANALYSIS INTO THE APPLICATION OF THE PORTFOLIO APPROACH AS A PRACTICAL EXPEDIENT TO GROUP PATIENT CONTRACTS WITH SIMILAR CHARACTERISTICS, SUCH THAT REVENUE FOR A GIVEN PORTFOLIO WOULD NOT BE MATERIALLY DIFFERENT THAN IF IT WERE EVALUATED ON A CONTRACT-BY-CONTRACT BASIS. UPON ADOPTION, THE MAJORITY OF WHAT WAS PREVIOUSLY CLASSIFIED AS PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS (REPRESENTING APPROXIMATELY 4 MILLION FOR THE YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2020) AND PRESENTED AS A REDUCTION TO NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE ON THE STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS AND CHANGES IN NET ASSETS IS NOW TREATED AS A PRICE CONCESSION THAT REDUCES THE TRANSACTION PRICE, WHICH IS REPORTED AS NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE. CHANGES IN CREDIT ISSUES NOT ASSESSED AT THE DATE OF SERVICE, ARE RECOGNIZED AS BAD DEBT EXPENSE AND INCLUDED AS A COMPONENT OF OPERATING EXPENSES ON THE STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS AND CHANGES IN NET ASSETS. THE NEW STANDARD ALSO REQUIRES ENHANCED DISCLOSURES RELATED TO THE DISAGGREGATION OF REVENUE AND SIGNIFICANT JUDGMENTS MADE IN MEASUREMENT AND RECOGNITION. THE ADOPTION OF THIS GUIDANCE DID NOT MATERIALLY IMPACT TOTAL OPERATING REVENUES, EXCESS REVENUES (EXPENSES), OR NET ASSETS. SEE FOOTNOTE 2 IN THE ATTACHED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR A COMPLETE DISCUSSION OF ADJUSTMENTS TO GROSS CHARGES AND THE CALCULATION OF NET PATIENT REVENUE. SEE FOOTNOTE 3 IN THE ATTACHED AUDITED STATEMENTS FOR A DISCUSSION AND SUMMARY OF CHARITY CARE, UNINSURED DISCOUNTS AND UNCOMPENSATED CHARGES. |
