HOW WE FINANCE ADVANCEMENT

SCCM enjoyed another strong year of financial performance in fiscal 2019 with an overall net revenue of $995,000.

Finances

Net revenue from operations was $995,000 on $19.5 million in gross operating revenue.  This strong result was primarily due to record attendance at the 2019 Critical Care Congress in San Diego.  The SCCM Statement of Position (balance sheet) is strong with net assets of 31 million at fiscal year-end 2019.  SCCM total assets reached $37.2 million of which $4.3 million is property and equipment (net of depreciation). The organization has no long-term debt. 

Since its inception, SCCM has grown both programmatically and financially. Steady increases in membership and Congress attendance, as well as growth in all other programs drive dependable revenues. The Council and staff leadership employ a conservative financial approach putting aside resources into several reserve funds to support new program development and provide for emergency reserves should the need arise. Reserve funds grew to $24.6 million at the end of fiscal 2019.  

Over the past five years, the Society has received over $2 million in grant support from private foundations and government agencies to support initiatives such as ICU Liberation, Surviving Sepsis Campaign, and Patient and Family Care. The Society has an approved indirect cost rate of 36% from the Department of Health and Human Services, which is used to substantiate claims for indirect costs under grants and contracts awarded by the federal government, government agencies, and private foundations.
