The paper, payer reimbursement issues.

Yeah, everybody has revenue cycle challenges.

We have to make sure that we're getting paid for what we do because whoever we buy supplies from sends us an invoice and they're gonna get paid regardless of we get paid.

That's an ongoing challenge for us.

We have to make sure that we're doing a diligent job.

And then it just, like I said, leave it up to the doctors to figure out exactly

what kind of a model they want.

If they want to be a solo, no partners necessary, employ good people, form their own governing board, that's fine.

If they want a joint venture with a management company of which there are several good prominent large ones around the country or a local regional hospital, that's fine too.

So that determination will be made once the people that are the true stakeholders sit down at the table and figure out how they're going to do, how they're going to go forward.

Thank you for having me.
