On Thursday, April 7th, Times-Picayune reporter Bill Barrow wrote that state building coordinator Jerry Jones "... repeated the administration's willingness to pursue third-party financing for some components of the campus if the UMC Corp. -- a state-affiliated entity created last year to run the new teaching hospital when it opens -- cannot come up with the money, for whatever reason.”

The UMC Management Corporation is not, as Jones’ statement clearly inferred, a newly-created management company.

According to the Secretary of State’s corporation database, University Medical Center Management Corporation (A major affiliate of LSU pursuant to LA. R.S. 17:3390) is a non-profit which was first incorporated in October 2005 (charter #36029275 N) under the name Earl K. Long Medical Foundation, Inc. The company name changed and its articles were revised in July 2010.

Did the non-profit and tax-exempt Earl K. Long Medical Foundation file Form 990 for any of the past five years?
