Leases

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2019

Leases:

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the new accounting guidance using the modified retrospective method of applying the new guidance at the adoption date. The Company elected practical expedients permitted under the transition provisions, which allowed the Company to carryforward historical assessments of whether contracts are or contain leases and lease classification. Beginning with January 1, 2019, the Company’s financial position is presented under the new guidance, while the prior period financial statements were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the previous guidance.

The Company primarily leases property under operating leases and has one material equipment operating lease for an aircraft. The Company’s property leases are primarily for its regional, medical and business offices, storage space and temporary housing for medical staff.

For leases with terms greater than 12 months, the Company records the related asset and obligation at the present value of the lease payment using a discount rate that reflects the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate. Certain of the Company’s leases include rental escalation clauses and renewal options that are factored into the determination of lease payments when appropriate. Operating leases for office equipment are not material, and therefore are excluded from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Finance leases are not material but will continue to be reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets with the right-of-use assets included in property and equipment, net, and the liabilities included in current portion of long-term debt and finance lease obligations.
