Report of Independent Auditors
To the Board of Trustees of
The McLean Hospital Corporation
In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheets and the related statements of operations, changes in
net assets and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The McLean
Hospital Corporation at September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations, its changes in
net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility
of The McLean Hospital Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the
standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated
December 20, 2007 on our consideration of The McLean Hospital Corporation's internal control over
financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts and grant agreements and other matters for the year ended September 30, 2007. The
purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting
and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control
over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in
accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of
our audit.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken
as a whole. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards for the year ended
September 30, 2007 is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of
Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit
Organizations, and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2007 and 2006
(dollars in thousands)
1.
Organization
The McLean Hospital Corporation (McLean) operates a psychiatric hospital established to provide
healthcare services to patients primarily from the Greater Boston area as well as New England and
beyond. In addition, McLean conducts research and provides education for physicians and other
healthcare professionals. As such, operating revenue includes those generated from direct patient
care and reimbursement of research and educational activities. McLean HealthCare, Inc. (MHC) is
the sole member of McLean.
The Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) is the sole member of MHC, The General Hospital
Corporation, Inc. (General), Massachusetts General Physicians Organization Inc., The MGH
Institute of Health Professions, Inc. and The MGH Health Services Corporation.
Partners HealthCare System, Inc. (PHS) is the sole member of MGH, The Brigham and
Women's/Faulkner Hospitals, Inc., The North Shore Medical Center, Inc., Newton-Wellesley
Hospital, Partners Continuing Care, Inc. and Partners International Medical Services, LLC (PIMS).
PHS appoints the two physicians who are the members of Partners Community HealthCare, Inc.
PHS, together with all of its affiliates, is referred to as "Partners HealthCare."
McLean and its parent are tax-exempt organizations under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal
Revenue Code.
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
McLean follows the accounting policies and practices of PHS and these statements should be read
in conjunction with the Partners HealthCare consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant
estimates are made in the areas of patient accounts receivable, research grants receivable,
investments, receivables and accruals for settlements with third-party payers, accrued professional
liability, accrued compensation and employee benefits and accrued other.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of financial instruments approximates the carrying amount reported in the balance
sheets for cash and equivalents, investments, investments limited as to use, interest in the net
assets of MGH, patient accounts receivable, research grants receivable, pledges receivable and
accounts payable, except for long-term obligations which is disclosed in Note 6.
Cash and Equivalents
Cash and equivalents represent money market and highly liquid debt instruments with a maturity at
the date of purchase of three months or less.
6
The McLean Hospital Corporation
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2007 and 2006
(dollars in thousands)
Investments
McLean holds investments which represent units in a partnership (Note 3) and are recorded on the
equity method of accounting at fair value, with the change in net unrealized appreciation included in
excess of revenues over expenses as a component of income from investments. Separately
invested investments (marketable investments) are measured at fair value, generally based on
quoted market prices, with the change in net unrealized appreciation excluded from excess of
revenues over expenses.
Income from investments (including realized gains and losses, change in net unrealized
appreciation on equity method investments, interest, dividends, and endowment income
distributions) is included in excess of revenues over expenses unless the income or loss is
restricted by donor or law. Income from investments is reported net of investment-related
expenses.
A write-down in the cost basis of securities is recorded when the decline in fair value of certain
investments below costs has been judged to be other-than-temporary. Depending on any donorimposed restrictions on the underlying investments, the amount of the write-down is reported as a
realized loss in either temporarily restricted net assets or in excess of revenues over expenses as a
component of income from investments, with no adjustment in the cost basis for subsequent
recoveries in fair value.
Partners HealthCare has an endowment spending policy for pooled endowment funds. A fixed
distribution rate for spending is determined each year which will come from either income and/or
net accumulated gains in fair value.
Investments Limited as to Use
Investments limited as to use primarily include assets whose use is contractually limited by external
parties and assets set aside by the Board of Trustees (or management) for identified purposes,
over which the Board (or management) retains control and may, at its discretion, subsequently use
for other purposes. Certain investments corresponding to deferred compensation are accounted
for such that all income and appreciation (depreciation) is recorded as a direct addition (reduction)
to the asset balance and corresponding liability balance.
Patient Accounts Receivable
McLean receives payments for services rendered from federal and state agencies (under the
Medicare and Medicaid programs), managed care payers, commercial insurance companies, and
patients. Patient accounts receivable are reported net of contractual allowances and reserves for
denials, uncompensated care, and doubtful accounts. The level of reserves is based upon
management's assessment of historical and expected net collections, business and economic
conditions, trends in federal and state governmental and private employer health care coverage
and other collection indicators.
Research Grants Receivable
McLean receives research funding from departments and agencies of the U.S. Government,
industry and corporate sponsors, and other private sponsors. Research grants receivable include
amounts due from these sponsors of externally funded research. The amounts have been billed or
are billable to the sponsor, or in limited circumstances, represent accelerated spending in
anticipation of future funding. Research grants receivable are reported net of reserves for
uncollectible accounts.

The McLean Hospital Corporation
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2007 and 2006
(dollars in thousands)
Interest in the Net Assets of The Massachusetts General Hospital
MGH holds investment assets for the benefit of McLean. Due to the corporate relationship
between MGH, MHC and McLean, these organizations are all financially interrelated. Accordingly,
McLean recognizes its interest in the net assets of MGH and adjusts that interest for its share of
the change in the net assets of MGH. Changes due to gifts, investment income (including realized
gains and losses) and unrealized appreciation are recognized in nonoperating activity.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is reported on the basis of cost less accumulated depreciation. Donated
items, exclusive of transfers from related organizations, are recorded at fair value at the date of
contribution. All research grants received for capital are recorded in the year of expenditure as a
change in net assets. Property and equipment is reviewed for recoverability whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated by use of the straight-line method at rates
intended to depreciate the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives, which generally range
from three to forty years. Interest costs incurred on borrowed funds during the period of
construction of capital assets are capitalized, net of any interest earned, as a component of the
cost of acquiring those assets.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Asset retirement obligations, reported in accrued other, are legal obligations associated with the
retirement of long-lived assets. These liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and the related
asset retirement costs are capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related assets by
the same amount as the liability. Asset retirement costs are subsequently depreciated over the
useful lives of the related assets. McLean records changes in the liability resulting from the
passage of time and revisions to either the timing or the amount of the original estimate of
undiscounted cash flows. McLean reduces these liabilities when the related obligations are settled.
Compensated Absences
In accordance with formal policies concerning vacation and other compensated absences, accruals
of approximately $3,398 and $3,077 were recorded as of September 30, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
Unexpended Funds on Research Grants
Research grants received in advance of corresponding grant expenditures are accounted for as a
direct addition to investments limited as to use and unexpended funds on research grants.
Self-Insurance Reserves
McLean is self-insured for employee healthcare, workers' compensation and certain other
employee benefits. These costs are accounted for on an accrual basis to include estimates of
future payments for claims incurred.

The McLean Hospital Corporation
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2007 and 2006
(dollars in thousands)
Net Assets
Permanently restricted net assets include only the historical dollar amounts of gifts which are
required by donors to be permanently retained. Temporarily restricted net assets include gifts, and
income and gains on permanently restricted net assets which can be expended but for which
restrictions have not yet been met. Such restrictions include purpose restrictions where donors
have specified the purpose for which the net assets are to be spent, or time restrictions imposed by
donors or implied by the nature of the gift (capital projects, pledges to be paid in the future, life
income funds) or by interpretations of law (gains available for appropriation but not appropriated in
the current period).
Realized gains and losses are classified as unrestricted net assets unless they are restricted by the
donor or law. Unless permanently restricted by the donor, realized gains and unrealized net
appreciation on permanently restricted gifts are classified as temporarily restricted until
appropriated for spending by McLean in accordance with policies established by Partners
HealthCare and the Massachusetts Management of Institutional Funds Act. Net losses on
permanently restricted endowment funds are classified as a reduction to unrestricted net assets
until such time as the fair value exceeds book value. Unrestricted net assets include all the
remaining net assets of McLean. See Note 12 for further information on the composition of
restricted net assets.
Gifts and Grants
Unconditional promises to give cash and other assets to McLean are reported at fair value at the
date the promise is received. Conditional promises to give are recognized when the conditions are
substantially met. The gifts are reported as either temporarily or permanently restricted support if
they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donated assets. Donor-restricted
contributions whose restrictions are met within the same year as received are reported as
unrestricted gifts in the accompanying financial statements.
Gifts of long-lived assets with explicit restrictions that specify use of assets and gifts of cash or
other assets that must be used to acquire long-lived assets are reported as additions to temporarily
restricted net assets if the assets are not placed in service during the year.
Grants and contracts normally provide for the recovery of direct and indirect costs, subject to audit.
McLean recognizes revenue associated with direct and indirect costs as direct costs are incurred.
The recovery of indirect costs is based on predetermined rates for U.S. government grants and
contracts and negotiated rates for other grants and contracts.
Statements of Operations
All activities of McLean deemed by management to be ongoing, major and central to the provision
of healthcare services, training and research activities are reported as operating revenue and
expenses. Other activities are deemed to be nonoperating and include unrestricted gifts (net of
fund-raising expenses), net change in unexpended academic and research gifts, substantially all
income from investments and system development funding. System development funding
represents payments made to PHS for corporate expenses and to support clinical and other
9
The McLean Hospital Corporation
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2007 and 2006
(dollars in thousands)
initiatives provided by PHS for the benefit of Partners HealthCare. Academic and research gifts
largely consist of donor contributions (and the related investment income including realized gains
and losses) designated to support the clinical, teaching or research efforts of a physician or
department as directed by the donor. These gifts are reported as unrestricted support as any
donor restrictions are of a general nature that are inherent in the normal activities of the
organization and do not require classification of these gifts as temporarily or permanently restricted.
The statements of operations include excess of revenues over expenses. Changes in unrestricted
net assets which are excluded from excess of revenues over expenses include change in
unrealized appreciation on marketable investments, transfers of assets to and from affiliates,
contributions of long-lived assets (including assets acquired using contributions which by donor
restriction were to be used for acquisition of such assets) and change in funded status of the
defined benefit plan.
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin ("SAB") No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying
Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB 108 was issued in order to eliminate the
diversity of practice surrounding how public companies quantify and assess the materiality of
financial statement misstatements. Although the SAB was directly applicable to public companies,
McLean elected to follow the prescribed guidance.
Prior to fiscal 2006, McLean recorded estimated accruals for settlements with third-party payers
and certain other liabilities above specific accrual amounts. In addition, changes in third-party
payer settlement estimates were generally amortized into income over a period not to exceed five
years rather than recorded in total in the year of the change in estimate. The adoption of SAB 108
as of October 1, 2005 resulted in a decrease in accruals for settlements with third-party payers of
$869 and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,297. Adjustment of other
differences resulted in a decrease in property and equipment of $1,943. The impact of these
adjustments resulted in a net increase of $223 in unrestricted net assets. For the years ended
September 30, 2007 and 2006, adjustments to prior year estimates resulted in an increase to
income from operations of $1,733 and $2,130, respectively.
Net Patient Service Revenue
McLean maintains agreements with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) of the
United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) under the Medicare Program,
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts under the Medical Assistance Program (Medicaid) and
various managed care payers that govern payment to McLean for services rendered to patients
covered by these agreements. The agreements generally provide for payments based on
allowable costs, subject to certain limitations, or per diem rates for inpatient care and discounted
charges or fee schedules for outpatient care.
Net patient service revenue is reported at estimated net realizable amounts from patients, thirdparty payers, and others for services rendered and includes estimated retroactive revenue
adjustments due to future audits, reviews, and investigations. Retroactive adjustments are
considered in the recognition of revenue on an estimated basis in the period the related services
are rendered, and such amounts are adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known or
as years are no longer subject to such audits, reviews, and investigations. Contracts, laws and
10
The McLean Hospital Corporation
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2007 and 2006
(dollars in thousands)
regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs and managed care payer
arrangements are complex and subject to interpretation. As a result, there is at least a reasonable
possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in the near term.
Charity Care
McLean provides either full or partial charity care to patients who cannot afford to pay for their
medical services based on income and family size. Charity care is reported at gross charges with
an offsetting allowance, as there is no expectation of collection. Accordingly, there is no net patient
service revenue related to charity care.
Other Revenue
Other revenue primarily consists of institutional revenue (for example, billing for services provided
to other healthcare providers) and tuition revenue.
3.
Investments and Investments Limited as to Use
Investments are either separately invested or included in pooled investment funds. The Partners
HealthCare System Pooled Investment Accounts (Partnership) is structured as a single general
partnership composed of four investment pools, with PHS and substantially all of its affiliates
participating in the pools as partners. Each partner's interest in the Partnership is based on its
underlying investments in one or more of the four separate pools. Amounts included in the
investment pools are accounted for using the fair value method whereby each partner is assigned a
number of units based on the fair value of the assets of a pool at the time of entry of the funds into
the pool. Current fair value is used to determine the number of units allocated to additional
amounts placed in a pool and to value withdrawals from a pool. Income from investments of the
pools, including realized gains and losses, is allocated on a unitized basis to a partner based on
the partner's share of units in a pool.
The Partnership participates in a securities lending program with its custodian bank whereby
securities are loaned to qualified financial institutions in exchange for collateral. Investments that
have been loaned to another institution are reported as pledged assets in the consolidated financial
statements of Partners HealthCare. Cash or investments received as collateral on the securities
lending transaction are also reported as assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Because the
collateral must be returned in the future, a corresponding liability is reported in the consolidated
financial statements.

Securities with unrealized depreciation are reviewed each quarter to determine whether these
investments are other-than-temporarily impaired. Externally managed marketable investments with
fair value below cost are considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired and, accordingly, the
unrealized depreciation is recognized as realized losses. All other investments are subject to a
further review, which considers factors including the anticipated holding period for the investment
and the extent and duration of below cost valuation. Based on management's evaluation of
investments with a fair value less than cost at September 30, 2007, no other-than-temporary
impairment was determined to have occurred.

For the years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, fully depreciated assets with an original cost of
$6,808 and $5,553, respectively, were written off.
In 2005, McLean sold 26.2 acres of land to Northland Development Company for $14,376 and
recorded a net gain of $10,567. McLean has also executed purchase and sale agreements to sell
24.7 acres of land for development of a senior housing community and a research and
development facility. The sale is expected to take place in 2008, after the necessary permits are
obtained.
In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation
No. ("FIN") 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations. Under FIN 47 an entity is
required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the
fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Uncertainty about the timing or method of
settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of
the liability when sufficient information exists.
McLean implemented FIN 47 at September 30, 2006 and recorded conditional asset retirement
obligations of approximately $243. These conditional asset retirement obligations relate to certain
materials requiring specific remediation efforts. Upon implementation of FIN 47, McLean recorded
a $243 reduction in unrestricted net assets which was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change
in accounting principle.

The Partners HealthCare Capital Framework Loan bears interest at a variable rate based upon the
weighted average cost of Partners HealthCare's debt, reset annually, effective October 1.
Aggregate maturities and payments of long-term obligations during the next five years are as
follows: 2008 - $3,332; 2009 - $3,463; 2010 - $3,636, 2011 - $3,160 and 2012 - $3,325.
Long-term obligations have variable interest rates that reflect currently available terms and
conditions for similar debt. The carrying amounts for this debt is a reasonable estimate of its fair
value.
Interest expense approximates interest paid during the years ended September 30, 2007 and
2006.

Pension and Postretirement Healthcare Plans
Pension Plan
Substantially all employees of MGH and its affiliates are covered under The Massachusetts
General Hospital Cash Balance Retirement Plan (MGH Plan), a noncontributory defined benefit
plan. Benefits under the MGH Plan consist of annual allocations to participants' accounts based on
the participants' age, years of service and salary. Interest is credited to participants' accounts
annually at market rates.
Pension expense under the MGH Plan for all affiliates amounted to $67,026 in 2007 and $46,371 in
2006. The amount of pension expense allocated to McLean was $3,952 in 2007 and $3,235 in
2006.
Postretirement Healthcare Benefit Plan
McLean also provides subsidized healthcare benefits for qualified retired employees on a selfinsured basis. These benefits are administered through an insurance company and are accounted
for on the accrual basis, which includes an estimate of future payments for claims incurred.
McLean uses a measurement date of June 30 for the postretirement healthcare benefit plan.

correlations for various asset classes, and (iv) Partners' ability and willingness to incur market risk.
Funded Status
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (SFAS 158). SFAS 158 focuses primarily on balance
sheet reporting for the funded status of benefit plans and requires recognition of benefit liabilities
for under-funded plans and benefit assets for over-funded plans, with offsetting impacts to
unrestricted net assets. McLean elected to early adopt the balance sheet recognition provisions of
SFAS 158 as of September 30, 2006. The impact of adoption resulted in a net decrease of $1,093
in unrestricted net assets, which was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle.
20
The McLean Hospital Corporation
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2007 and 2006
(dollars in thousands)
SFAS 158 also requires companies to measure benefit plan assets and liabilities and determine the
discount rate for subsequent year expense recognition as of the balance sheet date for financial
reporting purposes, thus eliminating the opportunity to use a measurement date up to 90 days prior
to the balance sheet date. The effective date for this change is 2009. McLean currently uses a
June 30 measurement date and will adopt a September 30 measurement date in 2009 as required.
Converting to the new measurement date will require a one-time adjustment to unrestricted net
assets per the transition guidance in SFAS 158.

Professional Liability Insurance
McLean insures substantially all of its professional and general liability risk on a claims-made basis
in cooperation with PHS affiliates and other organizations in the Greater Boston area through a
captive insurance company, Controlled Risk Insurance Company Ltd. (CRICO). The policy covers
claims made during its term, but not those occurrences for which claims may be made after
expiration of the policy, except for certain tail liabilities which CRICO has assumed on an
occurrence basis through December 31, 2007. Management intends to renew its coverage on a
claims-made basis and has no reason to believe that it will be prevented from such renewal.
McLean follows the accounting policy of establishing reserves to cover all professional liability
claims incurred but not reported to the insurance company as of the end of the year (tail liability),
excluding the tail liability assumed by CRICO. These reserves have been estimated by consulting
actuaries on a discounted basis using an interest rate of 5.75% at September 30, 2007 and 2006.
Management is not aware of any claims against McLean or factors affecting CRICO that would
cause the expense for professional liability risks to vary materially from the amount provided.

Transactions with Affiliated Corporations
McLean received fund-raising, investment management, legal, financial and administrative services
from PHS and affiliates. These services are reimbursed on an estimated cost basis and amounted
to $13,940 in 2007 and $12,421 in 2006. McLean received salary and other expense
reimbursements from PHS of $346 in 2007 and $415 in 2006.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject McLean to concentration of credit risk consist of
patient accounts receivable, research grants receivable, pledges receivable and certain
investments. McLean receives a significant portion of its payments for services rendered from a
limited number of government and commercial third-party payers, including Medicare, Medicaid,
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care and Tufts Associated
Health Plan. Research funding is provided through many government and private sponsors.
Pledges receivable are due from multiple donors. McLean considers the credit risk for pledges to
be minimal based on history and the financial wherewithal of donors, most of which are individuals
or organizations well known to the hospital. Investments, which include government and agency
securities, stocks and corporate bonds, and private partnerships and other investments are not
concentrated in any corporation or industry or with any single counterparty. McLean has not
historically incurred any significant credit losses outside the normal course of business.

Investment Transfer
Effective October 1, 2007, the Board of Trustees of McLean approved the permanent transfer of
substantially all unrestricted investments to its parent, MHC. In addition, in conjunction with the
board resolution, all system development funding will become the responsibility of MHC.
Temporarily and permanently restricted investments, as well as externally limited investments, will
continue to be included in the financial statements of McLean. McLean will account for this
transaction as a net asset transfer in fiscal 2008. The impact of this transfer will be to reduce
investments and unrestricted net assets by $56,643.
15.
Contingencies
McLean is subject to complaints, claims and litigation which have risen in the normal course of
business. In addition, McLean is subject to reviews by various federal and state government
agencies to assure compliance with applicable laws, some of which are subject to different
interpretations. Recently, governmental review of compliance by healthcare institutions, including
McLean, has increased.

Report of Independent Auditors on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on
Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in
Accordance with Government Auditing Standards
To the Board of Trustees of
The McLean Hospital Corporation
We have audited the financial statements of The McLean Hospital Corporation as of and for the year
ended September 30, 2007 and have issued our report thereon dated December 20, 2007. We
conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit, we considered The McLean Hospital Corporation's internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of The McLean Hospital Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of The McLean Hospital Corporation's
internal control over financial reporting.
A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or
employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect
misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of
control deficiencies, that adversely affects the entity's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or
report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that
there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the entity's financial statements that is
more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in
more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be
prevented or detected by the entity's internal control.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in
the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control
28
that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in
internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether The McLean Hospital Corporation's financial
statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain
provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have
a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing
an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we
do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or
other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
We noted certain matters that we reported to management of The McLean Hospital Corporation in a
separate letter dated December 19, 2007.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of The McLean Hospital Corporation’s Board
of Trustees, management, federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities, and is not intended to
be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
