Related Party Transactions Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 18 – Relationship with National Health Corporation National Health Corporation ("National"), which is wholly owned by the National Health Corporation Leveraged Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), was formed in 1986 and is our administrative services affiliate and contractor. As discussed below, all of the personnel conducting our business, including our executive management team, are employees of National and may have ownership interests in National only through their participation as employees in the ESOP. Management Contracts We currently manage five skilled nursing facilities for National under a management contract. The management contract has been extended until January 1, 2028. See Note 4 for additional information regarding management services fees recognized from National. Financing Activities In conjunction with our management contract, we have entered into a line of credit arrangement whereby we may have amounts due from National from time to time. The maximum loan commitment under the line of credit is $2,000,000. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, National did not have an outstanding balance on the line of credit. The maximum line of credit commitment amount of $2,000,000 is also the amount of a deferred gain that has been outstanding since NHC sold certain assets to National in 1988. The amount of the deferred gain is expected to remain deferred until the management contract with National expires, currently scheduled in January 2028. The deferred gain is included in deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets. Payroll and Related Services The personnel conducting our business, including our executive management team, are employees of National and may have ownership interests in National only through their participation in the ESOP. National provides payroll services to NHC, provides employee fringe benefits, and maintains certain liability insurance. We pay to National all the costs of personnel employed for our benefit, as well as an administrative fee equal to 1% of payroll costs. The administrative fee paid to National for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $5,878,000, $5,431,000, and $5,074,000, respectively. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company has recorded $2,933,000 and $1,499,000, respectively, in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets as a result of the timing differences between interim payments for payroll and employee benefits services costs. National’s Ownership of Our Stock At December 31, 2024 and 2023, National owns 1,030,887 and 1,084,763 shares, respectively, of our outstanding common stock. This accounts for 6.7% and 7.1%, respectively, of the total outstanding shares of common stock. Consolidation Considerations Because of the contractual and management relationships between NHC and National as described in this note above, we have considered whether National should be consolidated by NHC under the guidance provided in ASC Topic 810, Consolidation. We do not consolidate National because (1) NHC does not have any obligation or rights (current or future) to absorb losses or to receive benefits from National. The ESOP participants bear the current and future financial gain or burden of National, (2) National’s equity at risk is sufficient to finance its activities without past or future subordinated support from NHC or other parties, and (3) the equity holders of National (that is collectively the ESOP, its trustees, and the ESOP participants) possess the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, including voting rights that are proportional to their economic interests. Supporting the assertions above is the following: (1) substantive independent trustees are appointed for the benefit of the ESOP participants when decisions must be made that may create the appearance of a conflict of interest between NHC and the ESOP, and (2) National was designed, formed and is operated for the purpose of creating variability and passing that variability along to the ESOP participants—that is, to provide retirement benefits and value to the employees of NHC and NHC’s affiliates. The contractual and management relationships between NHC and National are with the skilled nursing facilities that are substantially less than 50% of the fair value of the total assets of National. NHC does not have a variable interest in National as a whole.
