These factors include, among others, our ability to realize fully or at all the anticipated benefits of our merger with Vanguard and to successfully integrate the operations of our business and Vanguard’s business; changes in health care and other laws and regulations; changes in economic conditions; adverse litigation or regulatory developments; the ability to enter into managed care provider arrangements on acceptable terms; changes in Medicare and Medicaid payments or reimbursement; adverse litigation or regulatory developments; competition; our success in implementing our business development plans and integrating newly acquired businesses; our ability to hire and retain qualified personnel; our significant indebtedness; the availability and terms of capital to fund the expansion of our business, including the acquisition of additional facilities; adverse fluctuations in interest rates and other risks related to interest rate swaps or any other hedging activities; the ability to continue to expand and realize earnings contributions from the revenue cycle management, health care information management, management services, and patient communications services businesses under our Conifer Health Solutions (“Conifer”) subsidiary by marketing these services to third-party hospitals and other health care-related entities; and our ability to identify and execute on measures designed to save or control costs or streamline operations. These factors also include the positive and negative effects of health reform legislation on reimbursement and utilization and the future designs of provider networks and insurance plans, including pricing, provider participation, coverage and co-pays and deductibles.
