Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Other Contingencies | Other Contingencies We have a $125,000,000 bank line of credit on which we may draw to meet short-term liquidity requirements in excess of internally generated cash flow. Amounts drawn under the line of credit are payable upon demand. At December 31, 2014, there were no borrowings under the line of credit. However, at such date, we had outstanding a $51,520,000 (increased to $71,415,000 on January 1, 2015) irrevocable standby letter of credit which relates to payment obligations under our insurance programs. As a result of the letter of credit issued, the amount available under the line of credit was reduced by $51,520,000 at December 31, 2014. The line of credit requires us to satisfy one financial covenant. We are in compliance with our financial covenant at December 31, 2014 and expect to continue to remain in compliance with such financial covenant. This line of credit expires on December 18, 2018. We believe the line of credit will be renewed at that time. On December 29, 2014, we entered into a Security Interest, Pledge and Assignment of Deposit Account (the "Pledge") with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Bank”) as collateral for the Promissory Note (the “Note”) dated December 29, 2014 between the Company’s third party payroll administrator and the Bank. The Company entered into the Pledge at year end due to the timing of payroll funding and the holidays. On January 2, 2015, the Company's third party payroll administrator satisfied its payment obligation under the Note, and accordingly, the Company's Pledge was terminated. As of December 31, 2014, the cash associated with the Pledge was held in the Company's operating cash account, and used to fund the Company's operations and general operating expenses. The Company concluded that the commitment was immaterial to our statement financial position as it represented less than 6% and 5%, respectively, of current assets and total assets as of December 31, 2014. Additionally, the commitment had no material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014. We provide our services in 48 states and are subject to numerous local taxing jurisdictions within those states. Consequently, in the ordinary course of business, a jurisdiction may contest our reporting positions with respect to the application of its tax code to our services. A jurisdiction’s conflicting position on the taxability of our services could result in additional tax liabilities. We have tax matters with various taxing authorities. Because of the uncertainties related to both the probable outcome and amount of probable assessment due, we are unable to make a reasonable estimate of a liability. We do not expect the resolution of any of these matters, taken individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations based on our best estimate of the outcomes of such matters. We are also subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of business. Some of these matters include payroll and employee-related matters and examinations by governmental agencies. As we become aware of such claims and legal actions, we provide accruals if the exposures are probable and estimable. If an adverse outcome of such claims and legal actions is reasonably possible, we assess materiality and provide such financial disclosure, as appropriate. State Medicaid programs are experiencing increased demand, and with lower revenues than projected, they have fewer resources to support their Medicaid programs. In addition, comprehensive health care legislation under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (together, the “Act”) was signed into law in March 2010. The Act will significantly impact the governmental healthcare programs which our clients participate, and reimbursements received thereunder from governmental or third-party payors. In July 2011, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) issued a final rule that reduced Medicare payments to nursing centers by 11.1% and changed the reimbursement for the provision of group rehabilitation therapy services to Medicare beneficiaries. This rule was effective as of October 1, 2011. Furthermore, in the coming year, new proposals or additional changes in existing regulations could be made to the Act and/or CMS could propose additional reimbursement reductions which could directly impact the governmental reimbursement programs in which our clients participate. As a result, some state Medicaid programs are reconsidering previously approved increases in nursing home reimbursement or are considering delaying or foregoing those increases. A few states have indicated it is possible they will run out of cash to pay Medicaid providers, including nursing homes. In addition, certain state governors have recently stated that they will reject Federal Medicaid assistance under the Act. Any negative changes in our clients’ reimbursements may negatively impact our results of operations. Although we are currently evaluating the Act’s effect on our client base, we may not know the full effect until such time as these laws are fully implemented and CMS and other agencies issue applicable regulations or guidance. In January 2013, the U.S. Congress enacted the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which delayed automatic spending cuts, including reduced Medicare payments to plans and providers up to 2%. These discretionary spending caps were originally enacted under provisions in the Budget Control Act of 2011, an initiative to reduce the federal deficit through the year 2021, also known as “sequestration.” The sequestration went into effect starting March 2013. In December 2013, the U.S. Congress enacted the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, which reduces the impact of the sequestration over the next two years. This began in fiscal year 2014 and extended the reduction in Medicare payments to plans and providers for two years through the year 2023.
