If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate.)

			(a)		The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
T			(b)		The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-SAR, or Form N-CSR or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and

PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Shortly before the filing deadline for the Registrants Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2005, the Registrant’s management received an anonymous letter referencing certain potential issues regarding a non-executive employee and the Registrant’s receipt of payments from certain commercial payors. The Registrant’s management immediately notified the Registrant’s Audit Committee and the Registrant’s independent public accountants of the contents of the letter, and the Registrant’s Audit Committee is conducting an investigation.

Because the letter was received shortly before the filing deadline for the Registrant’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2005, the Registrant’s Audit Committee’s investigation could not be completed prior to the filing deadline. Although the investigation continues, to date, the Registrant has not identified any information that would result in a change in the previously announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 or for any earlier periods.
