Amortization of debt discounts
−Removed: had amortization of debt discount of $1,051,264 and $1,192,044 for years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease of
−Removed: $140,780 or 11.8%.
−Removed: Amortization of debt discount is related to our convertible debt.

−Removed: $2,650,140 or 796.5%.
−Removed: The increase is due primarily to finance charges of $2,633,634 for the seven months ended December 31, 2021 for
−Removed: Nova Ortho factoring certain accounts receivables.
−Removed: As a result of the foregoing,
−Removed: we had a net loss of $409,707 for the year ending December 31, 2021, compared to a net loss for the year ending December 31, 2020 of $2,836,893.
−Removed: Our activities have a focus on growing revenue
−Removed: and cash flow.
−Removed: We plan to continue this strategy into 2022.
−Removed: To try to operate at a break-even level based
−Removed: upon our current level of proposed business activity, we believe that we must generate approximately $9,000,000 in revenue per year.
−Removed: dollar of revenue is not directly tied to increasing costs.
−Removed: We believe that we can become profitable without incurring additional costs
−Removed: under our current operating cost structure.
−Removed: However, if our forecasts are inaccurate, we will need to raise additional funds.
−Removed: additional capital, our directors have informally agreed to borrow such funds as may be necessary for the next 12 months for working capital
−Removed: purposes, although they have no obligation to do so.
−Removed: On the other hand, if we decide that we cannot
−Removed: operate at a profit in our current configuration, we may choose to scale back our operations to operate at break-even with a smaller level
−Removed: of business activity, while adjusting our overhead to meet the revenue from current operations.
−Removed: In such event, we will probably continue
−Removed: to not be profitable.
−Removed: In addition, we expect that we will need to raise additional funds if we decide to pursue more rapid expansion,
−Removed: the development of new or enhanced services or products, appropriate responses to competitive pressures, or the acquisition of complementary
−Removed: businesses or technologies, or if we must respond to unanticipated events that require us to make additional investments.
−Removed: We cannot assure
−Removed: that additional financing will be available when needed on favorable terms, or at all.
−Removed: We expect to incur operating losses in future
−Removed: periods because we will be incurring expenses and not generating sufficient revenues.
−Removed: We expect approximately $6,400,000 in operating
−Removed: costs over the next twelve months.
−Removed: We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating sufficient revenues or other funds in

−Removed: to go out of business.

−Removed: There can be no assurance that we will be able
−Removed: to obtain sufficient capital from debt or equity transactions or from operations in the necessary time frame or on terms acceptable to
−Removed: Should we be unable to raise sufficient funds, we may be required to curtail our operating plans and possibly relinquish rights to

−Removed: In addition, increases in expenses or delays in product development may adversely impact our cash
−Removed: position and may require cost reductions.
−Removed: No assurance can be given that we will be able to operate profitably on a consistent basis,
−Removed: or at all, in the future.
−Removed: In order to continue our operations, development
−Removed: of our products, and implementation of our business plan, we need additional financing.
−Removed: We are currently attempting to obtain additional
−Removed: working capital in a term loan transaction.
−Removed: During 2020 and 2021 both the Platinum Tax Subsidiary
−Removed: and the Key Tax Subsidiary (sold at December 31, 2021) secured PPP Funding to sustain their respective payrolls.
−Removed: The Company’s current funding is now concentrated
−Removed: with 3 primary lenders and the Company is currently in discussions with each to convert those outstanding notes to equity to include lockup
−Removed: and leakout agreements.

+Added: the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a loss from disposal of discontinued operations of $86,520.
+Added: For the year ended December
+Added: 31, 2022, we recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $2,178,883.
+Added: Net income (loss) .
+Added: As a result of
+Added: the cumulative effect of the factors described above, our net income was $3,028,394 for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared
+Added: to a net loss of $5,429,521 for the year ended December 31, 2022, a net increase of $8,457,915, or 155.78%.
+Added: Liquidity and Capital Resources
+Added: As of December 31, 2023, we
+Added: had $866,943 in cash .
+Added: To date, we have financed our operations primarily through revenue generated from operations, sales of securities,
+Added: advances from stockholders and third-party and related party debt.
+Added: We believe, based on our operating plan, that
+Added: current working capital and current and expected additional financing should be sufficient to fund operations and satisfy our obligations
+Added: as they come due for at least one year from the financial statement issuance date.
+Added: However, additional
+Added: funds from new financing and/or future equity raises are required for continued operations and to execute our business plan and our strategy
+Added: of acquiring additional businesses.
+Added: The funds required to sustain operations ranges between
+Added: $600,000 to $1 million and additional funds execute our business plan will depend on the size, capital structure and purchase price consideration
+Added: that the seller of a target business deems acceptable in a given transaction.
+Added: The amount of funds needed to execute our business plan
+Added: also depends on what portion of the purchase price of a target business the seller of that business is willing to take in the form of
+Added: seller notes or our equity or equity in one of our subsidiaries.
+Added: Given these factors, we believe that the amount of outside additional
+Added: capital necessary to execute our business plan on the low end (assuming target company sellers accept a significant portion of the purchase
+Added: price in the form of seller notes or our equity or equity in one of our subsidiaries) ranges between $4 million to $8 million.
+Added: to the extent, that sellers are unwilling to accept a significant portion of the purchase price in seller notes and equity, then the cash
+Added: required to execute our business plan could be as much as $10 million.
+Added: We intend to raise capital for additional acquisitions
+Added: primarily through equity and debt financings.
+Added: The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders.
+Added: incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial
+Added: covenants that would restrict our operations.
+Added: Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
+Added: is no guarantee that we will be able to acquire additional businesses under the terms outlined above.
+Added: The financial statements were prepared on a going
+Added: concern basis and do not include any adjustment with respect to these uncertainties.

+Added: the CPT Editorial Panel), that designates relative value units and a suggested range of charges for each procedure which is then assigned
+Added: This fee is discounted to reflect the percentage paid to us “using a modifier” recognized by each insurance carrier
+Added: for services, less deductible, co-pay, and contractual adjustments which are deducted from the calculated fee.

−Removed: Critical Accounting Estimates
−Removed: The discussion and analysis of our financial condition
−Removed: and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
−Removed: accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
−Removed: GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect
−Removed: the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
−Removed: estimates on experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which
−Removed: form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that may not be readily apparent from other sources.
−Removed: On an on-going basis, we evaluate the appropriateness of our estimates and we maintain a thorough process to review the application of
−Removed: our accounting policies.
−Removed: Our actual results may differ from these estimates.
−Removed: We consider our critical accounting estimates
−Removed: to be those that (1) involve significant judgments and uncertainties, (2) require estimates that are more difficult for management to
−Removed: determine, and (3) may produce materially different results when using different assumptions.
−Removed: We have discussed these critical accounting
−Removed: estimates, the basis for their underlying assumptions and estimates and the nature of our related disclosures herein with the audit committee
−Removed: of our Board of Directors.
−Removed: We believe our accounting policies specific to share-based compensation expense and estimation of the fair
−Removed: value of derivative liability involve our most significant judgments and estimates that are material to our consolidated financial statements.
−Removed: They are discussed further below.
−Removed: Share-based compensation expense
−Removed: The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation
−Removed: in which the Company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions under the recognition and measurement principles of
−Removed: the fair value recognition provisions of section 718-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
−Removed: Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-30-6
−Removed: of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance
−Removed: of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument
−Removed: issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
−Removed: The measurement date used to determine the fair
−Removed: value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable
−Removed: that performance will occur.
−Removed: If the Company is a newly formed corporation or
−Removed: shares of the Company are thinly traded, the use of share prices established in the Company’s most recent private sales to third
−Removed: parties, or weekly or monthly price observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as such
−Removed: shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
−Removed: The fair value of share options and similar instruments
−Removed: is estimated on the date of grant using a lattice-binomial option pricing valuation model.
−Removed: The ranges of assumptions for inputs are as
−Removed: Expected term of share options and similar instruments:
−Removed: The expected life of options and similar instruments represents the period of time the option and/or warrant are expected to be outstanding.
−Removed: Pursuant to Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f)(2)(i) of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification the expected term of share options and similar instruments represents the period of time the options and similar instruments are expected to be outstanding taking into consideration of the contractual term of the instruments and employees expected exercise and post vesting employment termination behavior into the fair value (or calculated value) of the instruments.
−Removed: Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1, it may be appropriate to use the simplified method, i.e., expected term = ((vesting term + original contractual term) / 2), if (i) A company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term due to the limited period of time its equity shares have been publicly traded; (ii) A company significantly changes the terms of its share option grants or the types of employees that receive share option grants such that its historical exercise data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term; or (iii) A company has or expects to have significant structural changes in its business such that its historical exercise data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
−Removed: The Company uses the simplified method to calculate expected term of share options and similar instruments as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
−Removed: Expected volatility of the entity’s shares and the method used to estimate it.
−Removed: Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f) (2)(ii) a thinly traded or nonpublic entity that uses the calculated value method shall disclose the reasons why it is not practicable for the Company to estimate the expected volatility of its share price, the appropriate industry sector index that it has selected, the reasons for selecting that particular index, and how it has calculated historical volatility using that index.
−Removed: The Company uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected contractual life of the share options or similar instruments as its expected volatility.
−Removed: If shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using daily observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market
−Removed: Risk-free rate(s).
−Removed: An entity that uses a method that employs different risk-free rates shall disclose the range of risk-free rates used.
−Removed: The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S.
−Removed: Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods within the expected term of the share options and similar instruments.
−Removed: Generally, all forms of share-based payments,
−Removed: including stock option grants, warrants and restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights are measured at their fair value on
−Removed: the awards’ grant date, based on estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest.
−Removed: The expense resulting from share-based payments
−Removed: is recorded in general and administrative expense in the statements of operations.
−Removed: Stock Based Compensation – Nonemployees
−Removed: Equity Instruments Issued to Parties Other
−Removed: Than Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services
−Removed: The Company accounts for equity instruments issued
−Removed: to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services under guidance of Subtopic 505-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification
−Removed: (“Subtopic 505-50”).
−Removed: Pursuant to ASC Section 505-50-30, all transactions
−Removed: in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value
−Removed: of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
−Removed: The measurement
−Removed: date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete
−Removed: or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
−Removed: If the Company is a newly formed corporation or shares of the Company
−Removed: are thinly traded the use of share prices established in the Company’s most recent private placement memorandum, or weekly or monthly
−Removed: price observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as such shares could be artificially inflated
−Removed: due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
−Removed: The fair value of share options and similar instruments
−Removed: is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing valuation model.
−Removed: The ranges of assumptions for inputs are as follows:
−Removed: Expected term of share options and similar instruments:
−Removed: Pursuant to Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f)(2)(i) of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification the expected term of share options and similar instruments represents the period of time the options and similar instruments are expected to be outstanding taking into consideration of the contractual term of the instruments and holder’s expected exercise behavior into the fair value (or calculated value) of the instruments.
−Removed: The Company uses historical data to estimate holder’s expected exercise behavior.
−Removed: If the Company is a newly formed corporation or shares of the Company are thinly traded the contractual term of the share options and similar instruments is used as the expected term of share options and similar instruments as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
−Removed: Expected volatility of the entity’s shares and the method used to estimate it.
−Removed: Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 718-10-50-2(f) (2)(ii) a thinly traded or nonpublic entity that uses the calculated value method shall disclose the reasons why it is not practicable for the Company to estimate the expected volatility of its share price, the appropriate industry sector index that it has selected, the reasons for selecting that particular index, and how it has calculated historical volatility using that index.
−Removed: The Company uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected contractual life of the share options or similar instruments as its expected volatility.
−Removed: If shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using daily observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
−Removed: Expected annual rate of quarterly dividends.
−Removed: An entity that uses a method that employs different dividend rates during the contractual term shall disclose the range of expected dividends used and the weighted average expected dividends.
−Removed: The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the expected term of the share options and similar instruments.
−Removed: Risk-free rate(s).
−Removed: An entity that uses a method that employs different risk-free rates shall disclose the range of risk-free rates used.
−Removed: The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S.
−Removed: Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods within the expected term of the share options and similar instruments.
−Removed: Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50-257, if fully
−Removed: vested, no forfeitable equity instruments are issued at the date the grantor and grantee enter into an agreement for goods or services
−Removed: (no specific performance is required by the grantee to retain those equity instruments), then, because of the elimination of any obligation
−Removed: on the part of the counterparty to earn the equity instruments, a measurement date has been reached.
−Removed: A grantor shall recognize the equity
−Removed: instruments when they are issued (in most cases, when the agreement is entered into), whether the corresponding cost is an immediate expense
−Removed: or a prepaid asset.
−Removed: Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50-30-S99-1, if
−Removed: the Company receives a right to receive future services in exchange for unvested, forfeitable equity instruments, those equity instruments
−Removed: are treated as unissued for accounting purposes until the future services are received (that is, the instruments are not considered issued
−Removed: until they vest).
−Removed: Consequently, there would be no recognition at the measurement date and no entry should be recorded.
+Added: We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that
+Added: have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues
+Added: or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
+Added: Critical Accounting Policies
+Added: The following discussion relates to critical accounting
+Added: policies for our consolidated company.
+Added: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting
+Added: principles, or GAAP, requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including
+Added: the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any.
+Added: We have identified certain accounting policies that
+Added: are significant to the preparation of our financial statements.
+Added: These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial
+Added: condition and results of operation.
+Added: Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition
+Added: and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to
+Added: make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.
+Added: Certain accounting estimates
+Added: are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting
+Added: the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments.
+Added: We believe the following critical accounting policies
+Added: involve the most significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements:
+Added: Revenue Recognition .
+Added: source of revenue is our healthcare subsidiary, which records revenues from providing licensed and/or certified orthopedic procedures
+Added: Revenue is recognized at a point in time in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 606.
+Added: Our healthcare subsidiary
+Added: does not have contract liabilities or deferred revenue as there are no amounts prepaid for services.
+Added: We apply the following five-step
+Added: ASC 606 model to determine revenue recognition:
+Added: · identification of a contract with a customer;
+Added: · identification of the performance obligations in the contact;
+Added: · determination of the transaction price;
+Added: · allocation of the transaction price to the separate performance obligations;
+Added: · recognition of revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.
+Added: We apply the five-step model when it is probable
+Added: that we will collect the consideration we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer.
+Added: At contract inception and once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess services promised within each contract
+Added: and determine those that are a performance obligation and assesses whether each promised service is distinct
+Added: Our contracts for both our contract and service
+Added: fees each contain a single performance obligation (providing orthopedic services), as the promise to transfer the individual services
+Added: is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct, as a result, the entire transaction
+Added: price is allocated to this single performance obligation.
+Added: Accordingly, we recognize revenues (net) when
+Added: the patient receives orthopedic care services.
+Added: Our patient service contracts generally have performance obligations which are satisfied
+Added: at a point in time.
+Added: The performance obligation is for onsite or off-site care provided.
+Added: Patient service contracts are generally fixed-price,
+Added: and the transaction price is in the contract.
+Added: Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with our patients
+Added: are satisfied;
+Added: generally, at the time of patient care.
+Added: Established billing rates are not the same as
+Added: actual amounts recovered for our healthcare subsidiary.
+Added: They generally do not reflect what we are ultimately paid by the customer,
+Added: insurance carriers and other payors, and therefore are not reported in the consolidated financial statements at that rate.
+Added: are typically paid amounts based on established charges per procedure with guidance from the annually updated Current Procedural Terminology,
+Added: or CPT, guidelines (a code set maintained by the American Medical Association through the CPT Editorial Panel), that designates relative
+Added: value units and a suggested range of charges for each procedure which is then assigned a CPT code.
+Added: This fee is discounted to reflect the percentage
+Added: paid to us “using a modifier” recognized by each insurance carrier for services, less deductible, co-pay, and contractual
+Added: adjustments which are deducted from the calculated fee.
+Added: The net revenue is recorded at the time the services are rendered.
+Added: Contract Fees (Non-PIP)
+Added: We have contract fees for amounts earned from
+Added: our non-personal injury protection, or PIP, related procedures, typically car accidents, and are collected on a contingency basis.
+Added: Historically,
+Added: these cases were sold to a factor who bears the risk of economic benefit or loss.
+Added: After selling patient cases to the factor, any additional
+Added: funds collected by us were remitted to the factor.
+Added: Service Fees – Net (PIP)
+Added: We generate services fees from performing various
+Added: procedures on the date the services are performed.
+Added: These services primarily include slip and falls as well as smaller nominal non-PIP
+Added: Fees are collected primarily from third party insurance providers.
+Added: These revenues are based on established insurance billing
+Added: rates, less allowances for contractual adjustments and uncollectible amounts.
+Added: These contractual adjustments vary by insurance company
+Added: and self-pay patients.
+Added: We compute these contractual adjustments and collection allowances based on our historical collection experience.
+Added: Completing the paperwork for each case and preparing
+Added: it for billing takes approximately ten business days after a procedure is performed.
+Added: The majority of claims are then filed electronically
+Added: except for those remaining insurance carriers requiring paper filing.
+Added: An initial response is usually received within four weeks from
+Added: electronic filing and up to six weeks from paper filing.
+Added: Responses may be a payment, a denial, or a request for additional information.
+Added: Our healthcare revenues are generated from professional
+Added: medical billings including facility and anesthesia services.
+Added: With respect to facility and anesthesia services, we are the primary obligor
+Added: as the facility and anesthesia services are considered part of one integrated performance obligation.
+Added: Historically, we receive 49% of
+Added: collections from total gross billed.
+Added: Accordingly, we recognized net healthcare service revenue as 49% of gross billed amounts.
+Added: collection rates are estimated using the most current prior 12-month historical payment and collection percentages.
+Added: Historically through April 2023, our
+Added: healthcare subsidiary has had contractual medical receivable sales and purchase agreements with third party factors which result in an approximately
+Added: 54% reduction from the accounts receivables amounts when a receivable is sold to the factors.
+Added: We evaluated the factored adjustments
+Added: considering the actual factored amounts per patient on a quarterly interval, and the reductions from accounts receivable that were
+Added: factored were recorded in finance charges as other expenses on the consolidated statement of operations.
+Added: a result of eighteen to twenty-four month collection timeframe, we have an accrued liability resulting from the collections of
+Added: receivables sold to the third party factors which fluctuates as collections are made and remitted to those third party factors.
+Added: These accounts receivables sold to these third party factors are not included in our financial statements accounts receivable
+Added: balance once sold and therefore are not part of the assessment of accounts receivable collectability.
+Added: Accounts Receivable .
+Added: In the normal
+Added: course of business, we are in the lien based medical industry providing orthopedic healthcare servicing an uninsured market insulated
+Added: by a letter of protection which insulates us and insures payment in full from insurance settlements.
+Added: A letter of protection is a legally
+Added: binding contract between the patient (i.e., our customer), the patient’s law firm and our company, as a medical provider.
+Added: as a critical legal agreement between an experienced personal injury attorney and a medical provider, allowing an injured victim to receive
+Added: vital medical treatment needed after an accident without paying exorbitant out-of-pocket medical expenses prior to settlement.
+Added: professionals, letters of protection provide guaranteed payment out of settlement proceeds for services rendered as the provider does
+Added: not have to attempt collection from an uninsured or underinsured injured patient.
+Added: The medical provider knows that payment will come directly
+Added: from the law firm out of the settlement.
+Added: This legally binding contract offers crucial protection when someone is hurt due to another party’s
+Added: negligence but lacks sufficient health insurance or faces denial of claim payments from insurance companies.
+Added: Medical bills may not be
+Added: paid for six months to two or more years until case resolution.
+Added: Providers must be willing to wait for payment.
+Added: Some complex cases settle
+Added: in increments over several years instead of one lump payment at the end.
+Added: A letter of protection enables injured clients to obtain essential
+Added: care, avoid collections, restore their credit, and focus wholly on recovery.
+Added: Attorneys utilize letters of protection to construct stronger
+Added: injury claims, while medical professionals gain guaranteed payment out of settlement proceeds even if treatment is lengthy or ongoing.
+Added: In a personal injury case, the at-fault party
+Added: is responsible for paying the medical bills of the injured person.
+Added: However, insurance companies will often refuse to pay these medical
+Added: expenses until liability has been determined.
+Added: This can leave an injured person unable to get the medical treatment needed, especially
+Added: if they do not have health insurance.
+Added: A letter of protection allows an accident victim to receive medical care while the personal injury
+Added: case is being resolved.
+Added: An attorney sends a letter of protection to the medical provider on behalf of the client patient.
+Added: states that the attorney is responsible for paying the client’s medical bills when the case is fully developed and settles.
+Added: medical professional agrees to provide treatment to the injured person and refrain from attempting to collect payment as it is developing
+Added: and until the case is resolved.
+Added: Once the personal injury case is finalized with the insurance company, the attorney pays the outstanding
+Added: medical bills from the settlement.
+Added: The letter of protection is fulfilled.
+Added: If no settlement is reached with the defendant’s insurance
+Added: company and the plaintiff (the patient) loses the case at trial, or the case is abandoned, then we will not be able to collect on our
+Added: letter of protection and the receivable will not be collected.
+Added: In the case of a partial settlement or award at trial, we might only be
+Added: able to collect a portion of the receivable.
+Added: We have a 99% collection rate based on net
+Added: settlements recorded to its accounts receivable and revenue.
+Added: Collection rates are estimated considering our 48-month historical collections
+Added: with primary emphasis to the most current prior 12-month trailing payment and collection percentage rates.
+Added: The method we use to measure
+Added: expected credit losses is the loss rate method, and in addition we qualitatively evaluate on an ongoing basis various factors, which include
+Added: market conditions in which we operate, and the status of claims being settled.
+Added: We have established billing rates, which are not the same
+Added: as actual amounts recovered.
+Added: These rates generally do not reflect what is ultimately paid by the customer, insurance carriers, law
+Added: firms and other payors, which is typically received eighteen to twenty-four months later, and are not reported in the consolidated financial
+Added: statements at those established billing rates.
+Added: Our customers, the patients, typically pay amounts based on established charges per
+Added: procedure with guidance from the annually updated CPT guidelines that designates relative value units and a suggested range of charges
+Added: for each procedure which is then assigned a CPT code.
+Added: This fee is discounted to reflect the percentage paid to us “using a modifier”
+Added: recognized by each insurance carrier for services, less deductible, co-pay, and contractual adjustments which are deducted from the calculated
+Added: The net revenue is recorded at the time the services are rendered.
+Added: Collection of that revenue typically occurs eighteen to twenty-four
+Added: months later and after the patient claim develops and settles.
+Added: Historical collection rates are estimated using the most current prior
+Added: 12-month historical payment and collection percentages.
+Added: We have adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial
+Added: Instruments – Credit Losses.” In accordance with this standard, we recognize an allowance for credit losses for our trade
+Added: receivables to present the net amount expected to be collected as of the balance sheet date.
+Added: This allowance is based on the credit losses
+Added: expected to arise over the life of the asset and are based on current expected credit losses.
+Added: Accounts receivable is reported on the balance
+Added: sheet at the net amounts expected to be collected by us.
+Added: Management closely monitors outstanding accounts receivable and recognized an
+Added: additional allowance for credit losses in the amount of $122,190 and $0 as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
+Added: As of December
+Added: 31, 2023 and 2022, we had net accounts receivable of $13,305,254 and $6,603,920, respectively.
+Added: Accounts receivables are primarily generated
+Added: from our healthcare subsidiary in its normal course of business.
+Added: We calculate a forward-looking collectability
+Added: rate which we then apply to our gross billings.
+Added: The amount recorded in accounts receivables approximates the amount expected to actually
+Added: be collected.
+Added: The allowance for credit losses represents any adjustments deemed necessary to the collectability rate based upon an annual
+Added: review of both actual collections, as well as any changes in industry billing and collection, and/or legal practices.
+Added: Property and Equipment .
+Added: and equipment are carried at cost.
+Added: Expenditures for renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property, equipment or leasehold
+Added: improvements are capitalized.
+Added: Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
+Added: Depreciation is calculated
+Added: using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes based on the following estimated useful lives:
+Added: Classification
+Added: Equipment, furniture, and fixtures
+Added: Medical equipment
+Added: Leasehold improvements
+Added: 10 years or lease term, if shorter

+Added: Our impairment testing of goodwill is performed separately from our impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangibles.
+Added: review goodwill for impairment on a reporting unit basis annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying

+Added: ‘triggering event’.
+Added: An assessment is made of these qualitative factors as such to determine whether it is more likely than

+Added: of expected future cash flows and operating plans.
+Added: We believe such assumptions are also comparable to those that would be used by other
+Added: marketplace participants.
+Added: For the year ended December 31, 2023, we determined there to be no impairment.
+Added: For the year ended December 31,
+Added: 2022, we recognized goodwill impairment in the amount of $2,092,048 in our former financial services segment, which is now reflected in
+Added: discontinued operations.
+Added: We based this decision on impairment testing of the underlying assets, expected cash flows, decreased asset value
+Added: and other factors.
+Added: Valuation of Long-Lived Assets .
+Added: In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360-10-5, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets
+Added: such as plant and equipment and construction in progress held and used by us are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
+Added: circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
+Added: Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated
+Added: by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to estimated cash flows expected to be generated by the assets.
+Added: If such assets are considered
+Added: to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair
+Added: value of the assets.
+Added: Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.
+Added: We account for our series N senior convertible preferred stock, series R convertible preferred stock, and series X senior convertible
+Added: preferred stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”.
+Added: Conditionally

+Added: participants at the measurement date.
+Added: Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are categorized
+Added: based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.
+Added: The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between
+Added: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs), and (2) an entity’s
+Added: own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable

+Added: The three levels of the
+Added: fair value hierarchy are described below:
+Added: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
+Added: other than quoted prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at
