IRS Releases Final Form 990, Schedule H

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) released a final revised Form 990 and 16 related Schedules, including a new Schedule H for hospitals. Schedule H represents an important step in the hospital field's ongoing efforts to increase transparency by providing a standard reporting format for many of the benefits that hospitals provide to the communities they serve.
