Total$51,218 $47,018 $145,126 $139,831 
(1) Includes initial cash rent and tenant operating expense reimbursements, as adjusted for applicable rental escalators and rent increases due to capital expenditures funded by the Company. For tenants on a cash basis, this represents the lesser of the amount that would be recognized on a straight-line basis or cash that has been received. Tenant operating expense reimbursements for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were $2.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Tenant operating expense reimbursements for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were $3.9 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
(2) During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 842, the Company evaluated the collectibility of lease payments through maturity and determined that it was not probable that the Company would collect substantially all of the contractual obligations from four existing and former operators. As such, the Company reversed $0.7 million of operating expense reimbursements, $0.2 million of contractual rent and $0.1 million of straight-line rent during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. If lease payments are subsequently deemed probable of collection, the Company will reestablish the receivable which will result in an increase in rental income for such recoveries.
