Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Other Contingencies	Other Contingencies Line of Credit We have a $200 million bank line of credit on which we may draw to meet short-term liquidity requirements. Amounts drawn under the line of credit are payable upon demand. At December 31, 2016, there were no borrowings under the line of credit. However, at such date, we had outstanding a $63.7 million irrevocable standby letter of credit, which relates to payment obligations under our insurance programs. As a result of the letter of credit issued, the amount available under the line of credit was reduced by $63.7 million at December 31, 2016. The line of credit requires us to satisfy one financial covenant. We are in compliance with our financial covenant at December 31, 2016 and expect to continue to remain in compliance with such financial covenant. This line of credit expires on December 18, 2018. We believe the line of credit will be renewed at that time. On January 3, 2017, the letter of credit increased to $67.2 million and the amount available under the line of credit was reduced by $3.5 million. Tax Jurisdictions and Matters We provide our services throughout the continental United States and are subject to numerous local taxing jurisdictions. In the ordinary course of business, a jurisdiction may contest our reporting positions with respect to the application of its tax code to our services. A jurisdiction’s conflicting position on the taxability of our services could result in additional tax liabilities. We have tax matters with various taxing authorities. Because of the uncertainties related to both the probable outcomes and amount of probable assessments due, we are unable to make a reasonable estimate of a liability. We do not expect the resolution of any of these matters, taken individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations based on our best estimate of the outcomes of such matters. Legal Proceedings We are also subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of business. Some of these matters include payroll and employee-related matters and examinations by governmental agencies. As we become aware of such claims and legal actions, we record accruals for any exposures that are probable and estimable. If an adverse outcome of such claims and legal actions is reasonably possible, we assess materiality and provide such financial disclosure, as appropriate. The Company believes it is not a party to, nor are any of its properties the subject of, any pending legal proceeding or governmental examination that would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or liquidity. Government Regulations Our clients are concentrated in the health care industry and are primarily providers of long-term care. Many of our clients’ revenues are highly reliant on Medicare, Medicaid and third-party payors’ reimbursement funding rates. New legislation or additional changes in existing regulations could be made which could directly impact the governmental reimbursement programs in which our clients participate. As a result, we may not know the full effects of such programs until these laws are fully implemented and governmental agencies issue applicable regulations or guidance.
