Grassley queries: Section 340B discount drug programs are intended for indigent drug coverage; in some hospitals and Walgreens, he notes that large executive bonuses were paid and scrutinizes Page 16
17 Diversion of assets A Washington Post article by Joe Stephans and Mary Pat Flaherty reported on November 1, 2013, that: Congress promises multiple investigations of possible wrongdoing at charities Federal and state officials, troubled that nonprofit organizations have quietly lost millions of dollars to financial wrongdoing, this week launched multiple investigations into whether the groups properly reported losses to authorities. Page 17
18 Diversion of assets Where is this question on the Form 990? It is on Part VI Governance, Management and Disclosure, Page 6. Did the organization become aware during the year of a significant diversion of the organization s assets? See page 21 of the instructions. Significant is defined as: 5% of the organization s gross receipts for its tax year 5% of the organization s total assets as of the end of its tax year $250,000 Page 18

New enforcement of delinquent responses is effective October 1, 2013 Step 1 Delinquency notice issued within 10 days, stating taxpayer must provide information within 15 days Step 2 Pre-summons letter issued if no response to the delinquency notice gives taxpayer 10 days to provided requested information Step 3 Formal summons that will be enforced Page 24

35 Why talk about it? Form 990 Part III, Schedule H narrative opportunities Standards are currently voluntary in the US, but are being developed Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (sasb.org) August 2013 issued version 1.0 for health care delivery Intersections to Section 501(r) regarding access to care Page 35

37 Employee assistance funds/ disaster relief funds Background Generally, any payments from an employer to an employee will be subject to tax. Section 102 specifically limits an employer from making gifts to employees. Section 139 provides exceptions for Presidentially declared disasters, terrorist attacks and certain other situations. If structured correctly, grants made from an employee assistance fund, established as a tax-exempt organization, to an individual would not be subject to tax. In the case of certain federally declared emergencies, a donation of Paid Time Off (PTO) can be made on a pre-tax basis. Page 37
