	RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER EXPENSES

Restructuring and other expenses include expenses resulting from the execution of our strategic assessment and related restructuring plans, consisting primarily of employee severance and other benefit-related costs, third-party consulting costs, facility-related costs, and certain other costs. It also includes other transitional costs such as training, redundant salaries, and retention bonuses for certain critical personnel.

In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company commenced a strategic assessment of its business and operations ("Restructuring Phase I"). This assessment focused on expanding revenue opportunities and lowering corporate overhead, including workforce and benefit reductions and facility rationalization. In addition to addressing corporate overhead, the strategic assessment examined the Company's market strengths and opportunities and compared the Company's position to that of its competitors. As a result of the assessment, the Company focused its growth on investments in the Infusion and Home Health Services segments and elected to pursue offers for its traditional and specialty pharmacy mail operations and community retail pharmacy stores. Accordingly, the Company consummated the Pharmacy Services Asset Sale relating to its traditional and specialty pharmacy mail operations and community retail pharmacy stores.

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, as a result of the divestiture process, the Company's management team commenced an assessment of the Company's continuing operations in order to align its corporate structure with its remaining operations ("Restructuring Phase II").

The Company anticipates that additional restructuring will occur and thus we may incur significant additional charges such as the write down of certain long-lived assets, employee severance, other restructuring type charges, temporary redundant expenses, potential cash bonus payments and potential accelerated payments or termination costs for certain of its contractual obligations, which impact the Company's future Consolidated Financial Statements.

Restructuring expenses during the year ended December 31, 2012 consisted of approximately $0.3 million of third-party consulting costs offset by $0.1 million of facility-related expense adjustments.

A large part of the third-party consulting costs and other costs were associated with the analysis of our assets and their long-term strategic value relative to other assets in which we could invest. The result of this assessment process culminated in the Pharmacy Asset Sale (see Note 4 for further information on the Sale).
