NOTE 4 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets are comprised of our customer contracts, provider network, and NCQA accreditation. We use a straight-line method to amortize these assets over three years, which approximates their remaining lives. We also evaluate their fair values annually and whenever any impairment indicators such as contract termination arise.

The following table presents net intangible assets as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
