From the transcript

So first and foremost, I wanna extend my thank you to all of you. We were really excited to see the participation in this LOI process. We cast our net really wide because our healthcare system really transforms and touches the lives of so many aspects of a person's wellbeing. And we were overwhelmed with the response. We received almost 1,800 letters of interest that represent about $2.5 billion in requests.
