From the transcript
That's helpful. And I think the, I mean, obviously the medical record sharing is a critical piece of all of this, but, you know, for these 45 to 50 people who are in this rotation, Is the actual need here for a different kind of facility that we don't currently have, or like, what's the constellation of solutions beyond just the sharing of medical records that actually gets us to a place where we don't have these 45 to 50 extremely vulnerable humans who are cycling through instability sort of in perpetuity? Yeah, it's a couple of things. One, the state did just pass in the last legislative session the ability to license what they're calling complex care Residential facilities, I think, is the term. But that basically is a higher level facility than we have currently, but it's short of being institutionalized.
