General Explanation GeneralExplanation (6 entries)

IdentifierIdentifierExplanationExplanation
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 3The Trust has contracted with a third-party administrator, Benefit Solutions, Inc., to provide bookkeeping and administrative services.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aUnder the rules of the Trust, a super majority of the employers can hold an election to remove and replace the Trustee.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The Form 990 was prepared under the guidance of the Trustee and the Trust's consultants and advisors by the independent accounting firm SCHOEDEL & SCHOEDEL, Certified Public Accountants, PLLC. Draft copies of the Trust's financial statements and Form 990 were first provided to the Trust's consultants and advisors, who reviewed the Form 990 for accuracy and completeness. Any questions, concerns or issues raised by the consultants and advisors were addressed and any necessary revisions were made to the Form 990. The revised Form 990 was then provided to the Trustee for his review and approval. Any additional questions, concerns or issues raised by the Trustee were addressed and any necessary revisions were made to the Form 990. The final version of the Form 990 was reviewed, approved and filed by the Trustee.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cBecause the Trust is also subject to ERISA and its party in interest and prohibited transaction rules, the parties working with the Trust are periodically reminded of their duties and obligations to avoid prohibited transactions and transactions that could be viewed as not in conformance with the conflict of interest policy.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15aThe Trustee's compensation has been determined by evaluating the compensation packages of similar revenue sized not-for-profit tax-exempt health care organizations. The Trust purchased from Economic Research Institute its Nonprofit Comparables Assessor which displays all tax-exempt Form 990s that report executive compensation for the calendar year 2009. From this data it was determined that the formula applied to the Trustee's compensation was between the 70th and 75th percentile for senior executives of similarly sized reported organizations. This was determined to be reasonable given the size of the Trust, the number of insured, the level of responsibility, and the fact that he pays all of his own taxes, benefits and other expenses of acting as Trustee. The formula for determining the Trustee's compensation is reported to the participating employers as part of each employer's their copy of the governing trust agreement which is distributed when an employer first joins the Trust and any time that there is a change. The exact dollar amount of compensation is reported to the U.S. Department of Labor on Form 5500 and is available online or upon request by participants and employers. At each renewal, the participating employers approve the arrangements with the Trustee when they renew, or they can elect to take their business elsewhere in a very competitive insurance market or, under the rules of the Trust, a super majority of the employers can hold an election to remove and replace the Trustee.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The Trust's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, financial statements and Form 990 are available to the general public upon written request sent to Benefit Solutions, Inc. at: P.O. Box 6, Mukilteo, WA 98275.
