Assessing The Tax Exempt Status Of A
California Nonprofit
Hospital : A 10 page position paper discussing both the
advisability and legality of challenging a California hospital’s
exemption from state and local property tax based on
questions surrounding their nonprofit activities. Very Rich
Medical Center (VRMC) is exemplary in their use of
operating funds. The center’s success lies in sound
management rather than in any abuse of their nonprofit status,
and the administration provides volunteer services to two
other medical centers lacking VRMC’s state-of-the-art
equipment and superior management of cost issues. The
paper recommends preserving VRMC’s tax-exempt status as
being the most cost effective for the local government as well
as for VRMC. Bibliography lists 4 sources. TaxExemp.wps
