Overview

Mission

Provide workers compensation insurance for employees of memorial hospital of Rhode Island.

What it reported doing in 2013

The trust collects the contributions required of the memorial hospital (the "supported organization") to enable it to provide directly through self-insurance, and by an excess of insurance policy, workers compensation benefits for its employees as required by Rhode Island law. The amounts of such contributions are determined by an independent actuary. All contributions to and interest income of the trust are devoted exclusively for charitable purposes, and the inure to the benefit of the supported organization, itself a charitable, tax-exempt organization, by reducing its costs of providing statutorily required workers compensation benefits.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 42% for direct work, and 58% for member benefits.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
