        <Explanation>Part III, Line 4: Text of the footnote that describes bad debt expense:Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for uncollectible accounts. In evaluating the collectability of accounts receivable, the HaysMed Group analyzes its past history and identifies trends for each of its major payor sources of revenue to estimate the appropriate allowance for uncollectible accounts and provision for bad debts. Management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for uncollectible accounts. For receivables associated with services provided to patients who have third-party coverage, the HaysMed Group analyzes contractually due amounts and provides an allowance for uncollectible accounts and a provision for bad debts, if necessary (for example, for expected uncollectible deductibles and copayments on accounts for which the third-party payor has not yet paid, or for payors who are known to be having financial difficulties that make the realization of amounts due unlikely). For receivables associated with self-pay patients (which includes both patients without insurance and patients with deductible and copayment balances due for which third-party coverage exists for part of the bill), the HaysMed Group records a significant provision for bad debts in the period of service on the basis of its past experience, which indicates that many patients are unable or unwilling to pay the portion of their bill for which they are financially responsible. The difference between the standard rates (or the discounted rates if negotiated) and the amounts actually collected after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted is charged off against the allowance for uncollectible accounts.Costing methodology: A cost-to-charge ratio derived from Worksheet 2 was used to calculate bad debt expense at cost.Methodology for bad debt cost for financial assistance eligible: This amount was estimated based on historical information from our collection agency on the percentage of accounts referred to collection whose guarantor was indigent.</Explanation>

If it is determined that at least a 2-year payment plan cannot be established with the patient, the CSR will screen for charity care and request that the charity care application be completed by the patient.</Explanation>
