In August 2011, we acquired Navvis & Company ("Navvis"), a firm that provides strategic counsel and change management services to healthcare systems, for $23.7 million in cash.  In addition, we issued 432,902 unregistered shares of our common stock which were valued in the aggregate at $3.3 million.

We performed a quantitative goodwill impairment review during the fourth quarter of 2011, and as a result of changes in our long-term projections related to the wind-down of our contract with CIGNA, we recorded a $182.4 million goodwill impairment loss.

In April 2012, we acquired Ascentia Health Care Solutions ("Ascentia"), a firm that supports and promotes population health management, patient centered programs, payer strategies and physician practice enhancement programs, for $5.5 million in cash.  In addition, we issued 14,409 unregistered shares of our common stock which were valued in the aggregate at $0.1 million.

As of January 1, 2013, the gross amount of goodwill totaled $521.1 million, and we had accumulated impairment losses of $182.4 million.
