Receivables [Abstract] |
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | Note 4— Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is established when the Company determines that it is probable that receivables have been impaired and the Company can reasonably estimate the amount of the losses. The related provision for bad debts is charged to costs of services provided in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The allowance for doubtful accounts is evaluated based on the Company’s ongoing review of accounts and notes receivable and is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The Company has had varying collections experience with respect to its accounts and notes receivable. The Company has sometimes extended the period of payment for certain clients beyond contractual terms. Such clients include those who have terminated service agreements and slow payers experiencing financial difficulties. In order to provide for such collection issues and the general risk associated with the granting of credit terms, the Company recorded bad debt provisions (in an Allowance for Doubtful Accounts) of $37.1 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in the provision for bad debts period-over-period is primarily related to corporate restructurings of two privately-held, multi-state operators that occurred during the first quarter 2018. In making the Company’s credit evaluations, in addition to analyzing and anticipating, where possible, the specific cases described above, management considers the general collection risk associated with trends in the long-term care industry. The Company establishes credit limits, performs ongoing credit evaluations and monitors accounts to minimize the risk of loss. Despite the Company’s efforts to minimize credit risk exposure, clients could be adversely affected if future industry trends change in such a manner as to negatively impact their cash flows. If the Company’s clients experience a negative impact on their cash flows, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. Impaired Notes Receivable The Company evaluates its notes receivable for impairment quarterly and on an individual client basis. Notes receivable are generally evaluated for impairment when the respective clients are either in bankruptcy, are subject to collections activity or are slow payers that are experiencing financial difficulties. In the event that the evaluation results in a determination that a note receivable is impaired, it is valued at the present value of expected future cash flows or at the market value of related collateral. A summary schedule of impaired notes receivable, and the related reserve, for the three months ended March 31, 2018 is as follows:
| Impaired Notes Receivable
| Balance December 31, 2017 |  | Additions |  | Deductions |  | Balance March 31, 2018
| (in thousands)
Impaired Notes Receivable | $ | 6,854 |  |  | $ | 150 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 7,004 |
Reserve for Impaired Notes Receivable | $ | 2,884 |  |  | $ | 2,752 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 5,636 |
