On June 7, 2010, IPC The Hospitalist Company, Inc. (the “Company”) received a civil investigative demand (“CID”) issued by the Department of Justice, U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Illinois. The CID requests information concerning claims the Company has submitted to Medicare and Medicaid. The CID applies to the Company and its affiliated professional organizations, covers the period from January 1, 2003, through the present, and seeks production of a wide range of documents relating to the Company’s Medicare and Medicaid participation, physician arrangements, operations and compliance programs. The Company has a strong compliance focus, and believes that it operates with appropriate billing policies, procedures, provider training and compliance programs. The Company intends to meet with representatives of the government to discuss the scope of the CID and the production of responsive documents. To the knowledge of the Company, no proceedings have been initiated against the Company at this time, although it is not possible to predict whether or when proceedings might be initiated, when these matters may be resolved or what impact, if any, the outcome of this matter might have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
