		Hospital Corporation used the Black Motor formula to determine the portion of year-end receivables it would not collect and would not be required to accrue for the 1987 and 1988 tax years.
		Hospital Corporation argues that the revised formula issued in the Treasury regulation is flawed mathematically, producing a result that is not based on its experience.
		Hospital Corporation argues that the statute clearly and unambiguously states that the adjustment period for hospitals “shall be 10 years,” so the cessation of business provision conflicts by not allowing the entire ten-year spread that the statute mandates.

		The recovery room nurse who prepared the affidavit in opposition to the hospital's motion for summary judgment adequately demonstrated that she is competent to render an expert opinion with regard to the standard of care of surgical and recovery room nurses.

		The jury also found that the Hospital’s and HCA’s negligence “proximately caused the occurrence in question.” The jury concluded that HCA and the Hospital were grossly negligent and that the Hospital acted with malice.
		Thus, although HCA never requested a jury instruction, nor challenged the absence of a jury instruction, on whether Dr. Otero treated Sidney under emergent circumstances, the evidence conclusively established that Dr. Otero was faced with emergent circumstances when he treated Sidney.
		Instead, the Millers’ only negligence claim was that HCA and the Hospital had policies, or lacked policies, and took actions that allowed Sidney to be treated without their consent.
