ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the
“SEC”) rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal
executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations
to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention
or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable
assurance of achieving their control objectives.
In connection with the
preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, our management, including our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, which
are defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act.
Based on this evaluation,
management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2023 due to the material weakness that
was previously reported in our Form 10-K Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, that have not yet been remediated.
Changes in Internal
Controls Over Financial Reporting
Management describes a plan to
remediate the material weaknesses within our 10K filed in March of 2023. Management is working towards enhancing internal controls, including
the hiring of a controller at Lab Services, MSO, who is also expected to assist us with our internal control weaknesses. Additionally,
management continued its risk assessment to identify risks and objectives. There were no other changes in our internal controls over financial
reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
