Commitment to Delivery of Patient Care Excellence. We believe providing patient care excellence is critical to attracting patients, physicians, medical staff and employees to our facilities. In addition, providing high quality patient care is increasingly vital to achieving our operating and financial success, including receiving full reimbursement from governmental and commercial insurance payors. As a result, we have implemented several management and operating initiatives aimed at continuously monitoring and improving our quality of care. We believe several factors contribute to providing patient care excellence, including leadership and accountability at all levels of our organization, aligning ourselves with quality physicians and clinical staff, as well as providing a clinical environment that is satisfactory to our patients, physicians and employees. To support these initiatives, each of our hospitals has a Chief Quality Officer (CQO) who is responsible for implementing and monitoring our quality training and operating programs. In addition, we have Boards of Trustees and Local Physician Leadership Groups (LPLGs) at each of our facilities, a Physician Advisory Group (PAG), a National Physician Leadership Group (NPLG) and several on-line training tools, which are focused on delivering patient care excellence, clinical best practices and results in our hospitals. In January 2011, we added a Chief Medical Officer (CMO) to our senior management team to assume leadership responsibility for facilitating the work of our NPLG, ensuring that physician leaders across the Company are continuously involved in shaping our vision and future strategies. The CMO is also responsible for providing leadership for our affiliated hospitals quality and service excellence initiatives as well as for on-going communication with medical staff members. Furthermore, we strive continually to improve physician and employee satisfaction, which we believe is critical to delivering quality patient care. Our satisfaction review program is instrumental in identifying ways to improve quality of care in each of our facilities. Some of the results of our efforts include
