ExplanationWest Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. does not receive its own independent audit. It is a member of a regional healthcare system named West Penn Allegheny Health System. West Penn Allegheny Health System receives a consolidated audit that includes the operations of West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. The following analysis represents the reconciliation between the financial statement net income and the net income as reported on Form 990, Page 1, line 19: Net income per financial statements $10,340,695 Less: Income and expense reclassified from restricted net assets on the financial statements to unrestricted income and expense on Form 990 (1,545,671) Less: Unrealized Loss on Securities reflected in unrestricted income on the financial statements and reclassified to net assets on Form 990 (1,045,609) Plus: Fixed Asset Impairment Loss reflected in the Audited Financial Statements as unrestricted but reclassified to net assets on the IRS Form 990 70,365,002 ___________ Net income per Form 990 $78,114,417 The following is the footnote to the audited consolidated financial statements of the West Penn Allegheny Health System for FASB ASC 740: "WPAHS adopted FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. FASB ASC 740 prescribes a more-likely than-not recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken. Under FASB ASC 740, tax positions will be evaluated for recognition, derecognition, and measurement using consistent criteria and will provide more information about the uncertainty in income tax assets and liabilities. Based on an analysis prepared by WPAHS, it was determined that the application of FASB ASC 740 had no material effect on the recorded tax assets and liabilities of WPAHS."Explanation

Bad Debt FootnoteWest Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. does not issue separate audited financial statements, and therefore, a footnote does not exist. Bad debt expense is accounted for on a charge basis in our internal financial statements. A cost to charge ratio is applied to the internal figures to convert the charge to cost. It is the opinion of West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. management that because patients are often reluctant to complete the required charity care paperwork that an unquantifiable amount of charity care results in bad debt. Thus, it is our opinion that bad debt expense can be considered a justifiable component of uncompensated care.BadDebtFootnote
Shortfall As Community BenefitWest Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. takes the shortfall in Medicare into consideration in its provision of charity care and below cost services to the community. The primary service area for West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. is Allegheny County. Allegheny County has the third largest percentage of adults age 65 or older in the United States. The shortfall in Medicare subsidized by West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. is a direct reflection of our commitment to the community and is a benefit to the community we serve. The costing methodology used to determine the amount on line 6 is the Medicare Cost Report.ShortfallAsCommunityBenefit
Needs AssessmentWest Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. management and staff utilize multiple strategies to continually monitor and assess the health care needs of the communities it serves. One approach to assessing needs involves surveying community members about health needs related to national and state health goals. West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. also acts on expressed community needs by responding to direct community requests for health screenings, outreach events and other health-related activities and by maintaining longstanding programs that are well attended and positively evaluated by community participants. In addition, West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. gathers community input through participation in area rotaries, chambers of commerce and through partnerships with community organizations. Another means is through reviewing and taking appropriate actions on feedback gathered from the following sources: routine market assessments; patient and family satisfaction surveys; Press Ganey surveys; patient, patient family and staffs' suggestions for improving patient safety; medical staff input and physician surveys.NeedsAssessment
Patient Education AssistanceWest Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. displays signage that describes the charity care policy and process at each of our registration sites. We also include information related to charity care in the patient brochures available at the registration sites. A summary of our charity care policy is available on our internet page www.wpahs.org, as well as the actual application. In addition, our internet page provides toll free telephone numbers that are available for patient inquiries concerning charity care. Our counselors can assist individuals with the process of applying for charity care. Our counselors can also assist patients in obtaining governmental assistance by helping identifying areas of assistance that they may qualify to obtain. If we are unsuccessful in helping the patient qualify, we use outside consultants to work with the patients to further help the qualification process. This is provided at no charge to the patient.PatientEducationAssistance

Other InformationWest Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. promotes the health of the communities we service through the provision of a 24 hour emergency department located at every hospital available 7 days a week for everyone regardless of their ability to pay. Allegheny General Hospital's lifeflight provides regional emergency helicopter and critical care ground transportation services for critically ill and injured individuals who need immediate specialized care. Lifeflight is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Pennsylvania Trauma Systems Foundation has designated Allegheny General Hospital as a Level I regional resource trauma center and the Western Pennsylvania Hospital as a Level II regional resource trauma center. Both centers have capabilities in patient care, research and education of future medical professions. A trauma surgeon is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to respond to patient needs. We specialize in many forms of highly skilled and technical medical treatment. These services are necessary to advance the healthcare of the communities we serve, therefore we undertake and subsidize the services with the understanding that they will result in a financial loss.

Changes to Organizational BylawsForm 990, Page 6, Part VI, Section A, Line 4The following changes were made to the bylaws of West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. during the year ended June 30, 2010: It is proposed that the West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. bylaws be amended as set forth below: Article VIII, Section 4. Compensation Committee. This Committee shall determine the compensation of officers and senior management of the Corporation and Constituent Corporations, and shall provide information regarding the Committee's determination to any Director upon his or her request. Either this Committee or a separate committee appointed by the Board shall evaluate and determine compensation parameters for physicians employed by or under contract with the Health Care System. Subject to the subsequent sentence, this Committee shall include as members the Chair of the Board of Directors, along with such other Directors as the Board may determine from time to time. This Committee shall have no physician members, employees of the Corporation, or any other person deemed to be an "insider" under guidelines promulgated or issued by the Internal Revenue Service who is compensated in his or her capacity as such.
Form 990 Review ProcessForm 990, Page 6, Part VI, Section B, Question 11AForm 990 is prepared internally by an employee of the West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. (Health System) Tax Department who is a certified public accountant. The document is then reviewed internally by top management officials including the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer of the Health System. A detailed external review is conducted by Health System external tax advisors, who sign the return as preparer. The Chair of the organization's Board of Directors, or another Board Member otherwise designated by the Chair, along with members of the Audit and Compliance committee of the Health System Board review the Form 990 and recommend changes or accept the document as presented. A copy of the Form 990 is made available to every board member for review prior to filing the document with the Internal Revenue Service.
Monitoring and Enforcement of the Conflict of Interest PolicyForm 990, Page 6, Part IV, Line 12cWest Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. is a member of the West Penn Allegheny Health System (WPAHS). WPAHS has a corporate compliance department that monitors and oversees compliance with the conflict of interest policy of all organizations in the health system. The following describes the manner in which the corporate compliance department monitors and oversees compliance with the conflict of interest policy for West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. as well as the other WPAHS affiliates: Conflict of Interest disclosure forms are completed on an annual basis by all board members, officers, employees who have a title of Manager and above, physicians in leadership roles, Pharmacy Committee members, Therapeutic Committee members, all employees of the System's Internal Audit Department as well as the employees involved with contracting in the Corporate Purchasing Department. Upon completion of the above disclosure statement by all applicable individuals, a report is generated listing all individuals that have reported a conflict. The System Compliance Officer and General Counsel review the conflicts disclosed. Those that require additional information or clarification receive a letter from the Compliance Officer requesting such. Once received, all additional information is added to the report and again reviewed by the Compliance Officer and General Counsel. Those conflicts that require a mitigation plan are sent to the respective organization's senior management for development of the mitigation plan. The organization's senior management is responsible to discuss the mitigation plan with the individual as needed and monitor compliance with the mitigation plan. Once mitigation is received, a final report is reviewed with the System Compliance Executive Committee and finally the Audit & Compliance Committee of the Board. In addition, all WPAHS board members, officers and key employees complete an annual independence disclosure statement which assists the System's Compliance Officer and Internal Audit Department to determine and monitor the levels of independence in each of the System's tax exempt affiliates as well as to determine the level of Form 990, Schedule L reporting.
Process Used To Determine Executive CompensationForm 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A & BWest Penn Allegheny Health System's process for determining compensation for executive positions (including officers, key employees and other management positions) within West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. (WPAHS) and its affiliates is covered by the WPAHS Executive Compensation Policy. This policy was approved by the WPAHS Board of Directors. It is the policy of WPAHS and its Board of Directors to compensate its executives in accordance with the market and in relation to the experience, service and accomplishments of the individual both prior to and during their service with WPAHS. The Compensation Committee of the WPAHS Board of Directors approves the compensation for WPAHS senior executives. The Compensation Committee approves the initial compensation for newly hired senior executives, which includes all compensation components, including without limitation, base compensation, incentive compensation, deferred compensation, fringe and other benefits, as well as the total compensation. It also approves all base compensation adjustments and all incentive compensation awards, as well as material changes to deferred compensation, fringe, or other benefits. The Compensation Committee uses comparability data provided by the System Human Resources Department, which may include industry surveys, expert compensation studies, documented compensation of persons holding similar positions, or other comparable data in approving any executive compensation. The Compensation Committee periodically retains the services of an independent compensation consultant to provide an expert opinion report as to the reasonableness of total compensation of WPAHS and its affiliates officers and key employees. Each Compensation Committee member voting on a senior executive's compensation arrangement ensures that he or she has no conflict of interest, including that he or she (a) does not economically benefit from the proposed employment; (b) does not receive compensation subject to the approval of the proposed employee; and (c) has no material financial interest affected by the transaction. The Compensation Committee consists of three independent Board Members of WPAHS. All decisions of the Compensation Committee regarding executive compensation matters are documented.
Public Availability of Organizational DocumentsForm 990, Page 6, Part VI, Section C, Question 19West Penn Allegheny Health System, Inc. (WPAHS, Inc.) does not make its governing documents available to the public. WPAHS, Inc. is a member of the West Penn Allegheny Health System (WPAHS). The WPAHS makes available their annual and quarterly financial statements through the use of a dissemination agent. These financial statements are on a consolidated basis with WPAHS, Inc. being one of the consolidated entities. WPAHS has adopted a conflict of interest policy that is uniformly applied to all organizations of the health system, including WPAHS, Inc. A condensed version of this conflict of interest policy is available on the WPAHS website. The condensed policy is contained in the code of ethics disclosure.
Purpose of Tax Exempt Bond IssuanceForm 990, Page 11, Line 20The purpose of the issue of the Allegheny County Hospital Development Authority (ACHDA) Hospital Revenue Bonds, Series 2007 A is to refund the outstanding ACHDA Series 2000A and B Bond Issues, refund the Dauphin County General Authority (DCGA) Series 1992A and B Hospital Bonds, the Pennsylvania Higher Education Facility Authority (PHEFA) Series 1991A Revenue Bonds, the Monroeville Hospital Authority (MHA) Series 1992 and 1995 Revenue Bonds, the funding of a project fund for certain prior and future capital expenditures and to pay the cost of issuing Series 2007A Debt.
Supplemental Information on Tax Exempt BondsSchedule KThe following is additional analysis regarding Schedule K, Page 2, Part IV, Question 5: On June 19, 2007, the System's Series 2007 Project Fund was funded with proceeds from a tax-exempt bond issue. The President and Chief Executive Officer of the System resigned shortly thereafter. An interim President and Chief Executive Officer served until March 2008 when a permanent President and Chief Executive Officer began his term. Because of this turnover in the leadership of the System, among other things, there was a delay in the capital spending until the new President and Chief Executive Officer began to implement the capital spending which he deemed to be necessary. This delay caused the Series 2007 Project Fund to be spent down in approximately four years. It should be noted that the System timely completes arbitrage calculations on all tax-exempt borrowings, and while a calculation has not yet been required for the Series 2007 Project Fund, management does not anticipate any positive arbitrage based on the yield on investments in the Series 2007 Project Fund while the proceeds were being spent.
