If you read the news how much up and down have you seen from HHS and CMS with trying to find a model that works? I don’t they model very well and especially after the roll out of Healthcare.Gov I wonder if they do model much at all. 
There’s been some changes to Hospice reimbursements and as well know anymore anything seems subject to change at any time.
Last year I had to use a hospice service for my mother and I stayed with a non profit. There was no way I wanted a for profit with a choice of Evercare owned by United Healthcare given as I would have analytics probably shoved at me the whole time, as that’s how they predominantly function.
At any rate Palladium Equity Partners hired a banker to put Jordan up for auction, so there’s a bunch of employees and patients kind of up in the air right now as when a new owner comes in things change as far as operations, accounting, etc. Everyone seems to be in some way dumping some of the old and disabled along the line due to expense it appears.
