These are difficult times in the United States and in our World. When unemployment rises and the housing market tanks, it affects us in the rural parts of our Country too. And in our case, on the Mendocino Coast, maybe it affects us more. We rely upon tourism in this charming and quaint seaside community. So when money is tight, there tends to be less travelling and less spending. Our hospital is struggling along with the rest of our community. This year we will end our fiscal year with a loss from operations for the first time in the past 4 years. That means that the income generated through our charges for medical services during the past 12 months was not sufficient to cover our expenses. In fact the shortfall was over $2 million. Our total budget at MCDH is $43 million. So the $2 million difference is very significant. The good news for MCDH is that during the past 12 months we have also had income from other means outside of our operations. In fact we received over $2 million in property tax income, charitable contributions, investment income and other contributions. The bottom line result is that we expect to end the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 with a bottom line positive gain. That too is significant.
