The provisions for deductions from revenue include specific healthcare plans and program rebates as well as non-healthcare plans and program-related rebates, returns and other deductions. The provisions for deductions from revenue are adjusted to reflect experience and to reflect actual amounts as rebates, refunds, discounts and returns are processed. The provision represents estimates of the related obligations, requiring the use of judgment when estimating the effect of these deductions from revenue.
