Return Reference Explanation
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment funds Endowment fund earnings are used toward research, education, and to fund department chairs, as well as general operations and uncompensated care offered to patients who meet the criteria established under NorthShore University HealthSystem's financial assistance policy. During fiscal year 2021, the Board of Directors designated a portion of net assets without donor restrictions as a board-designated endowment for the purpose of funding community benefit activities to meaningfully advance the health and well-being of the communities served.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote NorthShore, FPA, RMI, Swedish Hospital, SHF, NCH, NCH Hospital, and NCH Foundation have been determined to qualify as tax-exempt organizations under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Most of the income received by the Corporation is exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the IRC, as income related to the mission of the organization. Accordingly, there is no material provision for income tax for this entities. Some of the income received by exempt entities is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. NorthShore and its subsidiaries file federal income tax returns and returns for various states in the U.S. ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, requires that realization of an uncertain income tax position is more likely than not (i.e., greater than 50% likelihood of receiving a benefit) before it can be recognized in the financial statements. Furthermore, this interpretation prescribes the benefit to be recorded in the financial statements as the amount most likely to be realized assuming a review by tax authorities having all relevant information and applying current conventions. This interpretation also clarifies the financial statement classification of tax-related penalties and interest and sets forth new disclosures regarding unrecognized tax benefits. No amount was recorded for the three months ended December 31, 2021. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, the Corporation has a net operating loss carryforward of $336,752,118, which generated assets of $94,968,178. These assets are offset by a valuation allowance of $93,268,351.
