3. Legal Proceedings
On
December 22, 2023, an arbitrator rendered a decision in favor of Ramapo Anesthesiologists, PC (“Ramapo”) and granted in part
and denied in part certain claims brought against Origin Healthcare Solutions, LLC; Meridian Medical Management, Inc.; and the Company
for alleged breach of contract and other allegations. Ramapo was awarded mitigation related costs of $117,000. The payment for such an
award was made during the first quarter of 2024. The deadline for Ramapo to file a summary action in New Jersey seeking to overturn the
arbitrator’s decision is April 20, 2024. The Company’s portion of the settlement is approximately $32,000 and our insurance
will pay the balance. The Company’s portion has been recorded in accrued expenses in the December 31, 2023 consolidated balance
sheet.
From
time to time, we may become involved in other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. Including the proceeding
described above, we are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, would individually or
taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows of
the Company.
