Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Disclosures

SEGMENT DISCLOSURES

Our business units have been aggregated into three practice groups: Financial Services, Benefits and Insurance Services and National Practices. The business units have been aggregated based on the following factors: similarity of the products and services provided to clients; similarity of the regulatory environment in which they operate; and similarity of economic conditions affecting long-term performance. The business units are managed along these segment lines. A general description of services provided by each practice group is provided in the table below.

Financial Services	Benefits and Insurance Services	National Practices
Accounting and Tax	Employee Benefits Consulting	Information Technology Managed Networking and Hardware Services
Financial Advisory	Payroll / Human Capital Management	Healthcare Consulting
Valuation	Property and Casualty Insurance
Risk and Advisory Services	Retirement and Investment Services
Government Healthcare Consulting

Corporate and Other - Included in Corporate and Other are operating expenses that are not directly allocated to the individual business units. These expenses primarily consist of certain health care costs, gains or losses attributable to assets held in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan, stock-based compensation, consolidation and integration charges, certain professional fees, certain advertising costs and other various expenses.

Accounting policies of the practice groups are the same as those described in Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Upon consolidation, intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated, thus inter-segment revenue is not included in the measure of profit or loss for the practice groups. Performance of the practice groups is evaluated on income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (benefit) excluding those costs listed above, which are reported in the “Corporate and Other”.

Segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 is presented below. We do not manage our assets on a segment basis, therefore segment assets are not presented below.
