You're going to take clear objectives. So we're going to say, okay, our schedule is not 80% full most of the time, so we're going to fix that. And we're not collecting any co pays at the time of service. We're going to fix that. And since they're at the copay place, we're also not taking care of any outstanding balances before the time of the visit. And so we'll take care of that. Oh, but, Dr. X, you have these 12 things that are not working. Yes. But over the next 90 days, we are going to work on three things. We're going to fill up our schedule, we're going to start collecting co pays, and we are going to start taking care of outstanding balances. Doing those three things has the potential to bring in hundreds of thousands of dollars over the course of a year.
