Exploratory discussions with Billings Clinic regarding shared oncology services are progressing. A formal Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) will be presented for Board review at the May meeting.

Pending state-level changes to Medicaid reimbursement formulas may impact Q4 margin projections by an estimated $180K–$240K. Management is developing contingency scenarios and will present options for Board guidance at the next meeting.
