Research gaps: Exact Frist family HCA share total/percent in the 2026 proxy ownership table not extracted (only the ~32% combined founder-affiliate/sponsor figure); no Frist family open-market sales found in the 2026 Form 4s reviewed (Feb 2026 was an in-kind J-code restructuring). Other family CIKs seen on EDGAR: Thomas F. Frist III 0001223892, William R. Frist 0001433377. Frist Foundation EIN not verified (ProPublica rate-limited). No verified real estate or trophies.
