On September 15, 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) (ASU 2011-08), which provides final guidance on goodwill impairment that gives companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the annual two-step test and reduce costs. ASU 2011-08 gives companies the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If a company concludes that this is the case, it must perform the two-step test. Otherwise, a company can skip the two-step test. The Company adopted ASU 2011-08 in the first quarter of 2012 and the adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-07, Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debts, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for Certain Health Care Entities, which requires health care organizations that do not assess the collectibility of a receivable before recognizing revenue to present their provision for bad debt related to patient service revenue as a deduction from revenue on the face of the statement of operations. Enhanced disclosure about policies for recognizing revenue, assessing bad debts and qualitative and quantitative information about changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts also are required. The guidance is effective for the first quarter of 2012 for the Company. The adoption of ASU 2011-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company currently evaluates the collectibility of a receivable before recognizing revenue.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity. ASU 2011-05 requires that all items of net income, items of other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 will be required for the quarter ending on or after March 31, 2012 and must be applied retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2011-05 in the first quarter of 2012 and although the presentation of financial statements changed, the adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 primarily clarifies existing concepts in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. However, ASU 2011-04 requires new disclosures for Level 3 fair value measurements including quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs, the valuation process in place for all Level 3 measurements, and a narrative description of the sensitivity of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs used. In addition, ASU 2011-04 requires disclosure of transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the hierarchy classification for assets and liabilities whose fair value is disclosed only in the footnotes, and, if applicable, the reason nonfinancial assets measured at fair value are being used in a manner that differs from their highest and best use. The Company adopted ASU 2011-04 for the first quarter of 2012 and the adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
