(a) | | Due to our November 2006 Merger and Recapitalization, our capital structure and share-based compensation plans for periods before and after the Recapitalization are not comparable; therefore, we are presenting earnings and dividends declared per share information only for periods subsequent to the Recapitalization. |
|
(b) | | Excludes eight facilities in 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007 and seven facilities in 2006 that are not consolidated (accounted for using the equity method) for financial reporting purposes. |
|
(c) | | Excludes nine facilities in 2010, 2007 and 2006 and eight facilities in 2009 and 2008 that are not consolidated (accounted for using the equity method) for financial reporting purposes. |
|
(d) | | Licensed beds are those beds for which a facility has been granted approval to operate from the applicable state licensing agency. |
|
(e) | | Represents the average number of licensed beds, weighted based on periods owned. |
|
(f) | | Represents the total number of patients admitted to our hospitals and is used by management and certain investors as a general measure of inpatient volume. |
|
(g) | | Equivalent admissions are used by management and certain investors as a general measure of combined inpatient and outpatient volume. Equivalent admissions are computed by multiplying admissions (inpatient volume) by the sum of gross inpatient revenue and gross outpatient revenue and then dividing the resulting amount by gross inpatient revenue. The equivalent admissions computation “equates” outpatient revenue to the volume measure (admissions) used to measure inpatient volume, resulting in a general measure of combined inpatient and outpatient volume. |
|
(h) | | Represents the average number of days admitted patients stay in our hospitals. |
|
(i) | | Represents the average number of patients in our hospital beds each day. |
|
(j) | | Represents the percentage of hospital licensed beds occupied by patients. Both average daily census and occupancy rate provide measures of the utilization of inpatient rooms. |
|
(k) | | Represents the number of patients treated in our emergency rooms. |
|
(l) | | Represents the number of surgeries performed on patients who were not admitted to our hospitals. Pain management and endoscopy procedures are not included in outpatient surgeries. |
|
(m) | | Represents the number of surgeries performed on patients who have been admitted to our hospitals. Pain management and endoscopy procedures are not included in inpatient surgeries. |
|
(n) | | Revenues per day is calculated by dividing the revenues for the period by the days in the period. Days revenues in accounts receivable is then calculated as accounts receivable, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, at the end of the period divided by revenues per day. |
|
(o) | | Gross patient revenues are based upon our standard charge listing. Gross charges/revenues typically do not reflect what our hospital facilities are paid. Gross charges/revenues are reduced by contractual adjustments, discounts and charity care to determine reported revenues. |
|
(p) | | Represents the percentage of patient revenues related to patients who are not admitted to our hospitals. |
