On January 13, 2017, the Company completed an asset purchase agreement to acquire certain assets related to Scott County Community Hospital, based in Oneida, Tennessee (the “Hospital Assets”). The Hospital Assets include a 52,000 square foot hospital building and 6,300 square foot professional building on approximately 4.3 acres. Scott County Community Hospital, which has since been renamed as Big South Fork Medical Center, is classified as a Critical Access Hospital (rural). The Company acquired the Hospital Assets out of bankruptcy for a purchase price of $1.0 million, and the purchase price has been recorded as property and equipment in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company opened the hospital on August 8, 2017.

 

Depreciation expense on property and equipment was $0.5 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and $1.5 million and $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Management periodically reviews the valuation of long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for potential impairment. Management did not recognize any impairment of these assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.
