CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995: Certain information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other reports, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, statements, and presentations is forward looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, our anticipated operating results, financial resources, increases in revenues, increased profitability, interest expense, predictions of anticipated healthcare costs, growth and expansion, and the ability to obtain new behavioral healthcare or pharmacy management contracts. Such forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect actual results and cause them to differ materially from expectations expressed herein and in our other reports, SEC filings, statements, and presentations. These risks and uncertainties include, among others, changes in local, regional, and national economic and political conditions, the effect of governmental regulation, competitive market conditions, varying trends in member utilization, our ability to manage healthcare operating expenses, the profitability of our capitated contracts, cost of care, seasonality, our ability to obtain additional financing, our ability to renegotiate or extend expiring customer contracts, the risk that any definitive agreements or additional business will result from letters of intent entered into by us, and other risks detailed from time to time in our SEC reports.
OVERVIEW
GENERAL
Established in 1969, Comprehensive Care Corporation (CompCare, we or the Company), provides managed care services in the behavioral health, substance abuse, and pharmacy management fields. We primarily offer these services to commercial, Medicare, Medicaid, Childrens Health Insurance Program (CHIP) health plans, as well as self-insured companies and unions. Our managed care operations include administrative service agreements, fee-for-service agreements, and capitation contracts.
The behavioral health and substance abuse services provided through our provider network include outpatient programs (such as counseling or therapy), intermediate care programs (such as intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization services), and inpatient and crisis intervention services. We have a network of approximately 38,000 contracted providers in the following areas: psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, other licensed healthcare professionals, psychiatric hospitals, general medical facilities with psychiatric beds, residential treatment centers and other treatment facilities.
We also provide pharmacy management services where we manage a clients prescription drug usage through the use of selected pharmacy benefits managers, pharmacy data analytics, and the development of cost-saving ancillary pharmacy programs. Our enhanced pharmacy program is conducted in a manner that does not require any changes to the clients current pharmacy plan design or formulary, thereby eliminating disruption to beneficiaries. We will take the risk for the cost of the clients prescription drug usage and guarantee the client a per-member, per-month cost savings over their prior years cost and back the guarantee with a performance bond. We believe we can reduce drug costs for clients that utilize our program.
The Company prides itself on providing personalized attention, a commitment to high-quality services, and innovative approaches to behavioral health and pharmacy management that address specific needs of clients in a changing healthcare environment. In 1999 we were awarded our first National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) accreditation, which we have consistently maintained ever since.
MARKET OPPORTUNITIES
CompCare markets to regional health plans that do not have their own behavioral health network. These health plans will often contract with a managed behavioral healthcare organization (MBHO) to obtain access to behavioral healthcare professionals, claims processing, case management, better-integrated behavioral healthcare, and in some cases pharmacy management services. The health plans typically engage an MBHO like CompCare on a fixed fee paid on a per-member-per-month (PMPM) basis. Often, the PMPM will include the costs of care, which are the costs paid out to the providers and for pharmaceuticals, if applicable. Such an arrangement is known as an at-risk contract and the MBHO bears the risk/reward of the costs associated with higher or lower utilization of care. If the PMPM excludes the cost of care, the MBHO is essentially providing administrative services only (ASO). In such a case, the MBHO is not at risk of over/under utilization.

Through our primary operating subsidiary, Comprehensive Behavioral Care, Inc. (CBC) and its subsidiaries, we provide managed behavioral healthcare, substance abuse, and pharmacy management services. Additionally, CBC provides pharmacy and analytic services for its health plan customers, self-insured companies, and unions to integrate medical claims data and pharmacy data into actionable information so patient care can be coordinated cost effectively. We coordinate and manage the delivery of our services and products to:
| commercial members; |
| Medicare members; |
| Medicaid members; and |
| CHIP members. |
We provide services primarily through a network of contracted providers that includes:
| psychiatrists; |
| psychologists; |
| therapists; |
| other licensed healthcare professionals; |
| psychiatric hospitals; |
| general medical facilities with psychiatric beds; |
| residential treatment centers; and |
| other treatment facilities. |
The services provided through our provider network include outpatient programs (such as counseling or therapy), intermediate care programs (such as intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization services), inpatient programs and crisis intervention services. We do not directly provide treatment or own any treatment facilities.
We typically enter into contracts on an annual basis to provide managed behavioral healthcare, substance abuse, and pharmacy management services to our clients members. Our arrangements with our clients fall into two broad categories:
| at-risk arrangements where our clients pay us a fixed fee per member in exchange for our assumption of the financial risk of providing services; and |
| ASO arrangements where we manage behavioral healthcare programs or perform various managed care services, such as clinical care management, provider network development, and claims processing without assuming financial risk for member behavioral healthcare costs. |
Under our at-risk arrangements, the number of covered members as reported to us by our clients determines the amount of premiums we receive, which is independent of the cost of services rendered to members. The amount of premiums we receive for each member is fixed by our contract at the beginning of its term. Under certain circumstances, these premiums may be subsequently adjusted up or down, or the contract terminated, generally at the commencement of each renewal period.
The following table sets forth our managed care revenue, segregated by category, for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011:

Our largest expense is the cost of the behavioral health services and pharmacy drugs that we provide, which is based primarily on our arrangements with healthcare providers. Since we are subject to increases in healthcare operating costs based primarily on an increase in the number and frequency of our members seeking behavioral care services, but also inflationary factors, our profitability depends on our ability to predict and effectively manage healthcare operating costs in relation to the fixed premiums we receive under capitation arrangements. Providing services on an at-risk basis exposes us to the risk that our contracts may ultimately be unprofitable if we are unable to control or otherwise anticipate healthcare costs. Accrued claims payable and claims expense are our most significant critical accounting estimates. See MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES below.
We manage programs through which services are provided to recipients in seven states and Puerto Rico. Our objective is to provide easily accessible, high quality behavioral healthcare and pharmacy services and products and to manage costs through measures such as the monitoring of hospital inpatient admissions, review of authorizations for various types of outpatient therapy and effective management of prescription drugs. Our goal is to combine access to quality behavioral healthcare services with effective management controls in order to ensure the most cost-effective use of healthcare resources.
Our programs and services include:
| fully integrated behavioral healthcare and pharmacy management services; |
| management of prescription drugs on an at-risk basis for health plans, self-insured companies, and unions; |
| analytic services for medical and pharmacy claims for medical integration of behavioral and medical care coordination; |
| case management/utilization review services; |
| administrative services management; |
| preferred provider network development; |
| management and physician advisor reviews; and |
| overall care management services. |
SOURCES OF REVENUE
The majority of our revenue is earned from at-risk contracts pursuant to which we provide managed behavioral healthcare, substance abuse, and pharmacy management services to recipients, primarily through subcontracts with health plans that have historically outsourced these functions to MBHOs like us. In exchange for arranging behavioral health and substance abuse services, we generally receive a negotiated amount on a per-member per-month, or capitated, basis in exchange for providing these services. We then contract directly with behavioral healthcare providers that receive discounted fees at predetermined per-service, per-case or per-diem rates.
We also cover pharmacy management services and receive an additional per-member per-month amount. We manage pharmacy services through the collection and analysis of pharmacy claims data which is provided by the customers pharmacy benefit manager (PBM), whose primary functions are claims adjudication and drug cost negotiation. Through data analysis and usage evaluation against clinically sound, evidence-based criteria, we are able to identify ineffective, inappropriate and costly drug utilization. Our approach is to address these issues in a collaborative manner with the primary care physicians and psychiatrists through the provision of useful information based on our analysis. Our goal is to produce positive outcomes for patients while controlling pharmacy costs.
Under at-risk behavioral contracts, our profit is a function of utilization and the amount of claims payments made to our network providers. Under at-risk pharmacy contracts, the profitability depends on how effectively we manage our members utilization of the pharmaceutical drug benefit. We perform periodic reviews of our current client contracts to determine profitability. In the event a contract is not profitable, we may seek to revise the terms of the contract or to terminate the agreement in accordance with its terms.
During 2012, we provided services under at-risk arrangements for Medicare and commercial patients in Louisiana, Medicare and Medicaid patients in Michigan, Medicaid and CHIP patients in Texas, and Medicare patients in Missouri, Washington and Puerto Rico. Such services generated approximately 96% of our managed care operating revenue.

Table of Contents
Our Medicare, Medicaid and CHIP contracts are subject to agreements with our health plan clients whose contracts with the various governmental agencies may be subject to renegotiation at the election of the specific agency.
During 2012, approximately 82% of our operating revenue was concentrated in a single contract with one health plan in Puerto Rico to provide behavioral healthcare and psychotropic pharmacy management services under a Medicare plan. However, this contract terminated as of December 31, 2012.

Under our at-risk contracts, we assume the financial risk for the costs of member behavioral healthcare services in exchange for a fixed, per member per month fee. Under our ASO only contracts, we may manage behavioral healthcare programs or perform various managed care functions, such as clinical care management, provider network development and claims processing without assuming financial risk for member behavioral healthcare costs. Under our pharmacy contracts, we manage pharmaceutical services for the members of health plans on an at-risk or ASO basis.
GROWTH STRATEGY
CBC has many years of experience in the MBHO field serving health plans with unique and innovative programs addressing behavioral wellbeing and pharmacy management. The continued consolidation of the behavioral healthcare market through the acquisition of MBHOs by health plans offers CBC opportunities and we have become one of the few MBHOs that are not owned by a health plan and thus remain independent.
Our objective is to expand our presence in both existing and new managed behavioral healthcare and pharmacy management markets by enhancing our product offerings and identifying new business development partners. We have expanded our specialty management products to include management of prescription drugs on an at-risk basis for health plans, self-insured companies, and unions. We provide data analytic services for health plan claims and pharmacy data to effectively integrate plan data so that actionable information can be utilized to address patient care.
We provide our core product, outsourced behavioral healthcare management and pharmacy management services, primarily to health plans. We plan on expanding our products to self-insured companies and unions. We focus on continually developing and providing innovative and cost effective solutions to our customers. We expect the demand for our services to increase in the future in response to governmental legislative changes such as the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, which should increase the demand for our services through the expansion of the number of people covered by health insurance. We also believe the continuing shift in demographics of the U.S. population towards an older population will increase the number of Medicare beneficiaries such that Medicare expenditures are anticipated to increase from an expected $560 billion in 2011 to $1.1 trillion in 2020. Enrollment in Medicare Advantage Plans, which comprise approximately 65% of our covered lives as of December 31, 2012, reached 27% of all Medicare beneficiaries in 2012 and is expected to increase. Mental health expertise continues to be critical to successful management of comprehensive group healthcare costs, and of particular importance to managing the care of populations with specific needs and we believe we are well positioned for the growth in this sector of the market.
We also provide pharmacy management services where we manage a clients prescription drug usage through the use of selected pharmacy benefits managers, pharmacy data analytics, and the development of cost-saving ancillary pharmacy programs. Our enhanced pharmacy program is conducted in a manner that does not require any changes to the clients current pharmacy plan design or formulary, thereby eliminating disruption to beneficiaries. We will take the risk for the cost of the clients prescription drug usage and guarantee the client a per-member, per-month cost savings over their prior years cost and back the guarantee with a performance bond. We believe we can reduce drug costs for clients that utilize our program.

MARKETING AND SALES
Our marketing and sales efforts are led by our Chief Executive Officer (CEO). In addition, we utilize consultants for direct sales to commercial, Medicare Medicaid, and CHIP health plans, as well as self-insured companies and unions. We will continue to dedicate resources to expand our sales staff and marketing efforts as necessary.
CompCares sales strategy focuses on matching our solutions to the needs identified by our potential clients. One example of developing a customer solution is our pharmacy analytics program. Sales are highly technical and complex, involving many stakeholders within an organization. The sales and implementation process of our services is lengthy and requires us to commit substantial time and other resources to our marketing efforts. Sales leads may be generated by our business development staff, our operations staff, consultants, cold calls, prior business relationships, or recommendations from existing clients. We attend trade shows within geographic areas in which we conduct business and reach out to contacts known to us, our consultants, and our investors. In addition, we maintain permanent marketing outreach through our website, www.compcare.com.
PROVIDER NETWORK
As of March 31, 2013, we had approximately 38,000 behavioral healthcare practitioners in our network located in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
Our managed behavioral healthcare services are provided by contracted providers, including behavioral healthcare professionals and facilities. Our behavioral healthcare professionals include a variety of specialized behavioral healthcare personnel, such as:
| psychiatrists; |
| psychologists; |
| therapists; |
| licensed clinical social workers; |
| substance abuse counselors; and |
| other licensed healthcare professionals. |
The facilities we provide our services to include:
| psychiatric hospitals; |
| general medical facilities with psychiatric beds; |
| residential treatment facilities; and |
| other treatment facilities. |
Outpatient providers include both individual practitioners, as well as individuals who are members of group practices or other licensed centers or programs. Outpatient providers typically enter into contracts with us under which they are generally paid on a discounted fee-for-service basis.
Our provider network also includes contractual arrangements with intensive outpatient facilities, partial hospitalization facilities, community health centers, and other community-based facilities. Our contracts with facilities are on a per diem or discounted fee-for-service basis and, in some cases, on a case rate basis, whereby a fixed amount is paid irrespective of the amount of services provided. To help ensure quality of care, we credential and re-credential all professional providers with whom we contract in accordance with standards of the NCQA.
COMPETITION
The behavioral healthcare industry is very competitive and provides products and services that are price sensitive. Competitors include both independent MBHOs as well as health plans and insurers with internal behavioral health units or subsidiaries. Many of these competitors have revenues, financial resources, and membership bases that are substantially larger than ours. The extent of competition results in significant pricing pressures which limits our revenue growth. Accordingly, we expect our future growth to come from our expansion into new states and our new pharmacy management program.

Table of Contents
EFFECTS OF INFLATION AND CHANGES IN INTEREST RATES
Our business operations are subject to the effects of inflation, particularly as to the types of healthcare costs we cover on an at risk basis. However, to minimize the effect of inflation, some of our multi-year revenue contracts contain provisions for annual rate increases that average approximately three percent per year. Our largest expense, the cost of care provided by our contracted providers, is frequently tied to standard Medicaid, CHIP, and Medicare reimbursement rates set by governmental entities. To the extent these standard rates are increased periodically to reflect the effects of inflation, we may be adversely affected by rising prices, absent a sufficient compensating increase in our revenues from our customers. Although currently, all our debt instruments bear fixed interest rates, we have historically funded our operations with increased borrowings annually, often at higher than market interest rates as a result of our currently weak financial condition, cash flows and operating results, and, thus, unless we are successful in raising sufficient additional equity capital, we may be subject to the effects of changing interest rates.
SEASONALITY OF BUSINESS
Historically, we have experienced increased member utilization principally during the months of March, April and May and consistently low utilization by members during the months of June, July, and August. Such variations in member utilization impact our costs of care during these months, generally having a positive impact on our gross margins and operating profits during the June through August period and an adverse impact on our gross margins and operating profits during the months of March through May.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
At March 31, 2013, we managed approximately 178,000 lives in connection with behavioral, substance abuse, and pharmacy management services covered through government programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP programs in five states.
We are subject to extensive and evolving state and federal regulations relating to the nations mental health system, as well as changes in Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement that could have an effect on our profitability. These regulations range from licensure and compliance with regulations related to insurance companies and other risk-assuming entities, to licensure and compliance with regulations related to healthcare providers. These laws and regulations may vary considerably between states. As a result, we may be subject to the specific regulatory approach adopted by each state for regulation of managed care companies and for providers of behavioral healthcare treatment services. As of March 31, 2013, we hold licenses or certificates to perform utilization review and/or third party administrator (TPA) services in:
| California; |
| Connecticut; |
| Florida; |
| Georgia; |
| Illinois; |
| Indiana; |
| Louisiana; |
| Maryland; |
| Michigan; |
| Missouri; |
| Pennsylvania; and |
| Texas. |
Some of the services provided by our managed behavioral healthcare subsidiaries may be subject to such licensing requirements in other states. There can be no assurance that additional utilization review or TPA licenses will not be required or, if required, that we will qualify to obtain or renew such licenses. In some of the states in which we provide services, entities that assume risk under contract with licensed insurance companies or health plans that retain ultimate financial responsibility have not been considered by state regulators to be conducting an insurance or health maintenance organization (HMO) business. As a result, we have not sought licensure as either an insurer or HMO in certain states. If the regulatory positions of these states change, our business could be materially affected until such time as we meet the regulatory requirements. We cannot quantify the potential effects of additional regulation of the managed care industry, but such costs may have an adverse effect on future operations to the extent that they are not able to be recouped in future managed care contracts.

ACCREDITATION
The NCQA provides information about the quality of national managed care plans to enable consumers to evaluate health plan performance. To develop standards that effectively evaluate the structure and function of medical and quality management systems in managed care organizations, NCQA has an extensive review and development process in conjunction with the managed care industry, healthcare purchasers, state regulators, and consumers. The Standards for Accreditation of MBHOs used by NCQA reviewers to evaluate an MBHO address the following areas: quality improvement, utilization management, credentialing, members rights and responsibilities, and preventative care. These standards validate that an MBHO is founded on principles of quality and is continuously improving the clinical care and services it provides. NCQA utilizes the Health Plan Employer Data and Information Set, which is a core set of industry-wide performance measurements developed by NCQA to respond to complex but clearly defined employer needs as standards for patient care and customer satisfaction.
In October 2011, we were awarded Full Accreditation by NCQA extending until October 2014. Full Accreditation is granted for a period of three years to those plans that have, according to the NCQA, excellent programs for continuous quality improvement and that meet NCQAs rigorous standards.
NCQA accreditation is required by several of our client contracts and is frequently an important consideration to our prospective clients. We believe our NCQA accreditation is beneficial to our clients and their members we serve.
MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS
All of our health plan information technology and systems operate on a single platform. This approach avoids the costs associated with maintaining multiple systems and improves productivity. The open architecture of the systems gives us the ability to transfer data from other systems thereby facilitating the integration of new health plan business. We use our information system for claims processing, utilization management, reporting, cost trending, planning, and analysis. The system also supports member and provider service functions, including:
| enrollment; |
| member eligibility verification; |
| provider rosters; |
| claims status inquiries; and |
| referrals and authorizations. |
We are subject to the requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). One of the purposes of HIPAA is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the healthcare system through standardization of the electronic data interchange of certain administrative and financial transactions and, also, to protect the security and privacy of protected health information. Entities subject to HIPAA include some healthcare providers and all healthcare plans.
We have significantly enhanced our network by installing a storage area network and virtualizing our computer servers. This implementation brought in the current best practices approach and permitted a major overhaul of our information technology infrastructure. The technology centralizes storage management, increases the utilization of equipment, improves redundancy of the servers, reduces the overall hardware requirements, and facilitates growth, while driving down the total cost of ownership.
ADMINISTRATION AND EMPLOYEES
Our executive and administrative offices are located in Tampa, Florida, where we maintain operations, business development, accounting, reporting and information systems, and provider and member service functions. Provider management, account management, and certain clinical and utilization management functions are also performed by employees located in Michigan. As of March 31, 2013, we employed 43 full-time employees and 3 part-time employees.

You should carefully consider and evaluate all of the information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the risk factors listed below. Risks and uncertainties in addition to those we describe below, that may not be presently known to us, or that we currently believe are immaterial, may also harm our business and operations in the future. If any of these risks occur, our business, and its future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be harmed, the price of shares of our common stock could decline, and future events and circumstances could differ significantly from those expected that are set forth in or underlie the forward-looking statements contained in this report.
Risks related to our industry
Adverse conditions in the U.S. and global economies could negatively affect our revenues and sources of liquidity.
The financial markets have been recovering slowly from a U.S. and worldwide recession with continued diminished liquidity and availability of credit for many business enterprises, which has adversely affected our ability to raise additional capital. In addition, reduced economic activity has lowered the revenues of the federal and many state governments which could result in reduced payments to our clients for healthcare coverage programs, including Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP.
The industry is subject to extensive state and federal regulations, as well as diverse licensure requirements varying by state. Changes in regulations could affect the profitability of our contracts or our ability to retain clients or to gain new customers.
We are required to hold licenses or certificates to perform utilization review and/or TPA services in California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Texas. Additional utilization review or TPA licenses may be required in the future, and we may not qualify to obtain new licenses or renew existing licenses. In many states in which we provide services, entities that assume risk under contract with licensed insurance companies or health plans have not been considered by state regulators to be conducting an insurance or HMO business. As a result, we have not sought licensure as either an insurer or HMO in any state. If the regulatory positions of these states were to change, our business could be materially affected until such time, if any, as we are able to meet the regulatory requirements, if at all. Additionally, some states may decide to contract directly with enterprises such as ours for managed behavioral healthcare services, in which case they may also require us to meet or exceed regulatory net worth requirements that we may not readily be able to meet. Currently, we cannot quantify the potential effects of additional regulation, if any, of the managed care industry.

The status and future effect of healthcare reform in the U.S. is uncertain.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Healthcare and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 contain provisions that may, among other things, reduce government payments for healthcare services, and is currently subject to political controversy and significant uncertainty. We cannot predict the effect of this legislation and any future changes therein on our business.
Healthcare organizations could be adversely affected in 2013 and 2014 by costs associated with adoption of the new federally mandated ICD-10 standardized coding set for diagnoses.
The federal government will require that healthcare organizations adopt updated and expanded standardized code sets (known as ICD-10) effective October 2014 for documenting health diagnoses. These new standardized code will require us to make additional investments that could be significant.
We can be adversely affected by changes in federal, state and local healthcare policies, programs, funding and enrollments.
At March 31, 2013, all of our business was attributable to health plans serving Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP members. We are unable to predict the impact on our operations of future regulations or legislation affecting these programs, or the healthcare industry in general, and future regulations or legislation may have a material adverse effect on us. Moreover, any reduction in government spending for such programs may also have a material adverse effect.
We are subject to federal statutes prohibiting false claims.
The Federal False Claims Act imposes civil penalties for knowingly making or causing to be made false claims with respect to governmental programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, for services not rendered, or for misrepresenting actual services rendered, in order to obtain higher reimbursement. Although we do not directly provide services to beneficiaries of federally funded health programs and, accordingly, do not submit claims to the federal government, we do provide services to health plans that could become subject to allegations about false claims, which could, in turn, result in allegations against us as well.
Failure to adequately comply with HIPAA may result in penalties.
Our industry is subject to the security and privacy requirements of HIPAA relative to patients health information. Although we believe we are fully compliant with all HIPAA regulations, any assertions of lack of compliance with HIPAA regulations could result in penalties and have a material adverse effect on our ability to retain our customers or to gain new business.
The managed care industry is often subject to class action lawsuits and claims for professional liability that could increase our future costs and expenses.
In recent years, the managed care industry has been subjected to a greater number of lawsuits and claims of professional liability alleging negligence in performing utilization review and other managed care activities and for denial of payment for services. Such incidents could result in professional negligence or other claims against us causing us to incur fees and expend substantial resources in defense of such actions in excess of the limits of our professional liability insurance.
Risks related to our business
In addition to all of the foregoing general industry-related risks that may particularly affect our business, we are also subject to the following more particular risks:
Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have experienced a significant decrease in operating revenues beginning January 1, 2013 due to the loss of our major contract in Puerto Rico on December 31, 2012. The loss of this contract and our inability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations and sustain our operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our future is dependent on our ability to execute our business and liquidity plans successfully. If we fail to do so for any reason, this will affect our ability to continue as a going concern in which event investors could lose their entire investment in the Company. Accordingly, in their audit report dated April 12, 2013 on our consolidated financial statements contained herein, our auditors expressed substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our existing and potential managed care clients operate in a highly competitive environment and may be subject to a higher rate of merger, acquisition, and regulation than in other industries.
Our clients may decide to manage the behavioral healthcare benefits in-house and, as a result, discontinue contracting with us. For example, our Puerto Rico client terminated its contract with us as of December 31, 2012 and is now managing its members behavioral benefit internally. Additionally, our small to medium-sized health plan clients may be acquired by larger health plans, resulting in non renewals of our contracts.
Our inability to renew, extend or replace expiring or terminated contracts in the near term could adversely affect our liquidity, profitability and financial condition.
Many of our contracts could be terminated immediately either for cause or without cause by the client upon notice of a specified time (typically between 60 and 120 days). The loss of one of these contracts could materially reduce our net revenue and have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, profitability and financial condition.
Many of our clients provide services to groups covered by Medicare, Medicaid and/or CHIP programs. Such federal and state controlled programs are susceptible to annual changes in reimbursement rates and eligibility requirements.
At March 31, 2013, we managed approximately 178,000 lives for 10 clients in connection with behavioral, substance abuse, and psychotropic pharmacy management services covered through Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP programs in seven states and Puerto Rico. Any changes in Medicare, Medicaid, and/or CHIP reimbursement could ultimately affect us adversely through contract bidding and cost structures with the health plans affected by such change, especially if we are unable to adapt to the differing needs of our Medicare members and the Medicare regulations. Also, because governmental healthcare programs account for such a large portion of state budgets, efforts to contain overall government spending could result in a significant decrease in healthcare programs.
Temporary reductions in governmental funding for Medicare, Medicaid and CHIP programs have previously had an adverse impact on us that could continue. In addition, states in which we operate may pass legislation that would further reduce our revenue from such sources or increase our claims expense through changes in the reimbursement rates, changes in the benefit covered, or in the number of eligible participants. We may be unable to reduce our costs to a level that would allow us to maintain current gross margins specific to our Medicare, Medicaid and CHIP programs.
We may not be able to predict utilization of our at-risk contracts accurately, which could result in contracts priced at levels insufficient to reasonably ensure profitability.
A substantial portion of our services are provided on an at-risk capitation (fixed fee) basis for costs incurred to provide agreed-upon levels of service. This exposes us to significant risk that contracts negotiated and entered into may ultimately be unprofitable if utilization levels require us to provide services at costs that exceed the capitation rates we receive for the covered services. Failure to adequately anticipate costs at contact signing or renewal or control cost increases could have material, adverse effects on our business.
We rely on the accuracy of eligibility lists provided by our clients to collect premiums and to pay claims. Any inaccuracies in those lists may cause our clients to recoup premium payments from us or for us to pay claims inappropriately.
Premium payments that we receive and claims payments that we make are based on eligibility lists that are produced and maintained by our clients. We are required to reimburse our clients for premiums received based on an eligibility list that the client may later discover contains individuals who were not eligible. Our review of all remittance files to identify potential duplicate members, members that should be terminated or members for which we have been paid an incorrect rate may not identify all such members and could result in repayment of premiums or claims that we paid incorrectly and for which we are unable to recover.
Our failure to maintain accreditations could disqualify us from existing contracts, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Several of our contracts require that we are to be accredited by independent accrediting organizations that are focused on improving the quality of healthcare services.
We must estimate the amount of claims incurred but not reported, and actual claims ultimately reported may differ materially.
Our costs of care include estimated amounts for claims incurred but not reported (IBNR). These estimates are subject to the effects of trends in utilization and other factors and at times may be inadequate.
13
Table of Contents
We may be subject to regulatory fines and penalties.
From time to time, we receive notifications from various state agencies concerning our business and operations. Many of our contracts contain provisions stating that we are responsible for regulatory penalties or fines assessed to the client that are due to our noncompliance with a contractual requirement. Our inability to comply with these contractual or regulatory requirements may have a material adverse effect on our business.
A failure of our information systems could significantly impair our ability to serve our customers and manage our business.
An effective and secure information system, available at all times, is vital to our health plan customers and their members. We depend on our computer systems for significant service and management functions, such as providing membership verification, monitoring utilization, processing provider claims, and providing regulatory data and other client and managerial reports. Although our computer and communications hardware is protected by physical and software safeguards and other internal controls, it is still vulnerable to computer viruses and other technological threats, fire, storm, flood, power loss, telecommunications failures, or physical break-ins, and similar catastrophic events. We do not have 100% redundancy for all of our computer and telecommunications facilities. We also depend on a third-party provider of application services for our core business application. Any sustained disruption in their services to us would have a material negative effect on our business.
We are subject to intense competition that may prevent us from gaining new customers or pricing our contracts at levels sufficient to achieve gross margins to ensure profitability.
We are continually pursuing new business. Many of our competitors are significantly larger and better capitalized than we are. Our smaller size and weak financial condition has been a deterrent to some prospective customers. Additionally, we will likely have difficulty in matching the financial resources expended on marketing by larger competitors. As a result, we may not be able to successfully compete in our industry in some respects, markets or instances.
We will require additional funding, and we cannot guarantee that we will find adequate sources of capital at acceptable terms in the future or that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
We cannot provide assurance that our available cash will be sufficient to fund our business. Although we currently expect to obtain the needed funds from operating activities, which cannot be assured and new financing, possibly including, which cannot be assured additional debt or equity or financing (which could dilute current stockholders ownership interests), we also cannot provide assurance that such additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Failure to achieve these goals may affect our ability to continue as a going concern. (See also Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources, below.)
We may be unsuccessful in obtaining required performance bonds or other security, and consequently may lose clients.
Some of our clients may require us to maintain performance bonds, restricted cash accounts, or other security with respect to our obligations to pay claims. Due to current market conditions or other factors, we may be unable to provide the security required by the client or prospect.
We are dependent on our provider network to provide adequate services to our members.
We contract with providers as a means to provide access to behavioral health services for our members. Some providers could refuse to contract with us, demand higher payments than we are willing or able to make, or take other actions which could result in higher healthcare costs. In addition, we may not have access to sufficient providers in a particular geographic area to provide adequate coverage for our members to meet our marketing objectives or contractual obligations. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to continue to renew existing provider contracts or enter into new contracts.
Claims brought against us could exceed our insurance coverage.
From time-to-time, we are subject to a variety of legal actions including provider disputes and breach of contract actions. Although we establish provisions for estimated litigation costs as we believe appropriate, we cannot provide assurance that our recorded provisions will be adequate to cover such costs. We maintain a program of insurance coverage against a broad range of risks related to our business. As part of this program of insurance, we are subject to certain deductibles and self-insured retentions. Our insurance limits or covered risks may not be sufficient to cover all judgments, settlements, or costs relating to future claims, suits or complaints. In addition, upon expiration of our insurance policies, we could find that sufficient insurance is not available on acceptable terms, if at all. Therefore, the litigation to which we are subject could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

We may be unable to attract and retain qualified personnel.
The success of our business is largely dependent on the skills, experience and performance of key members of our senior management team, such as our CEO, President, and Chief Financial Officer and others. We believe our ability to attract and retain highly skilled and qualified technical, managerial, and marketing personnel will determine whether we meet our goals. The market for highly skilled sales, marketing and support personnel is highly competitive as a result of the limited availability of technically qualified personnel with the requisite understanding of the markets which we serve. The inability to hire or retain qualified personnel may hinder our ability to implement our business strategy and may harm our business.
Our growth could strain our personnel and infrastructure resources.
Any growth in our operations could place a significant strain on our current management, administrative, operational, and financial infrastructure. Our future success will depend in part upon the ability of our management to manage growth effectively. This may require us to hire and train additional personnel to manage our expanding operations. In addition, we will be required to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures.
Risks related to our common and preferred stock
Our Series C Convertible Preferred stockholders have significant rights and preferences over the holders of our common stock.
Our Series C Convertible Preferred stockholders are entitled to receive dividends when declared by our Board of Directors before dividends are paid on our common stock and also have a claim against our assets senior to the claim of the holders of our common stock in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up. The aggregate amount of that senior claim is approximately $2,608,500. In addition, each Series C Convertible Preferred stockholder is entitled to vote together with the holders of our common stock on an as converted basis, and, voting together as a separate class, all holders have the right to elect five directors to our Board of Directors.
The holders of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock have other rights and preferences as detailed elsewhere in this report. These rights and preferences could adversely affect our ability to finance future operations, satisfy capital needs or engage in other business activities that may be in our interest.
Our Series D Convertible Preferred stockholders have significant rights and preferences over the holders of our common stock.
We also have a class of convertible preferred stock, Series D, for which 7,000 shares are authorized and 250 shares have been issued. The shares do not vest until the tenth anniversary of the grant date of January 4, 2012 at which time the shares will be convertible into 100,000 shares of common stock. Prior to vesting and thereafter, each Series D convertible preferred share is entitled to all voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights accorded a share of Series D convertible preferred stock. If a dividend is declared on the common stock, each share of Series D stock is entitled to receive a dividend equal to 50% of the dividend declared for the common stock as if the Series D stock had been converted. Despite their nonvested status, voting rights of each share nevertheless consist of the right to cast the number of votes equal to those of 500,000 shares of common stock. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, holders of shares of Series D have the right to vote together with holders of common stock as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders.
Shares reserved for future issuance upon the conversion of our preferred stock, subordinated debentures, options, warrants, and convertible promissory notes may result in dilution to our common stockholders.
As of March 31, 2013, 48,432,224 shares of our authorized but unissued common stock were reserved for the potential conversion of our Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock now outstanding or to be issued, subordinated debentures, and convertible promissory notes. In addition, 90,875,251 shares of our common stock were reserved for the possible exercise of warrants and stock options that are not outstanding or may be issued in the future under existing stock option plans.
We may raise additional funds in the future through issuances of securities and such additional funding may be dilutive to stockholders or impose operational restrictions.
To fund acquisitions, sales expansions and our operations, we may raise additional capital in the future through sales of shares of our common stock or securities convertible into shares of our common stock. Such additional financing may be dilutive to our stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve significant interest costs and/or restrictive covenants which may limit our operating flexibility.

We are not subject to certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other requirements of the federal securities laws and regulations, and accordingly neither the Company nor its investors may receive the benefits and protections they were enacted to provide.
Since we are a smaller reporting entity, and since our common stock is not listed for trading on a national securities exchange, we are not subject to certain of the more robust requirements of the federal securities laws and regulations and the large stock exchanges, including, but not limited to many disclosure requirements of Regulation S-X, certain corporate governance rules and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including Section 404(b), which, if applicable, would require our independent auditors to report on the Companys internal control over financial reporting. The corporate governance rules that do not apply to us relate to independent director standards, director nomination procedures, audit and compensation committees standards, the use of an audit committee financial expert and the adoption of a code of ethics, some of which we nevertheless comply with voluntarily in some significant respects.
Applicable SEC rules governing the trading of penny stocks may limit the trading and liquidity of our common stock which, along with our small public capitalization may affect the trading price of our common stock and may subject us to securities litigation.
Our common stock is a penny stock as defined under Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act and is accordingly subject to SEC rules and regulations that impose limitations upon the manner in which our common stock may be publicly traded. These regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the associated risks. Under these regulations, certain brokers who recommend such securities to persons other than established customers or certain accredited investors must make a special written suitability determination regarding such a purchaser and receive such purchasers written agreement to a transaction prior to sale. These regulations may have the effect of limiting the trading activity of our common stock and reducing the liquidity of an investment in our common stock. In addition, the size of our public market capitalization is relatively small, resulting in highly limited trading volume in, and high volatility in the price of, our common stock.
We expect that our per share price will continue to be volatile for the indefinite future. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against a company by investors following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. Accordingly we could be the target of similar litigation in the future. Securities litigation, if it were to occur, even if we were to successfully defend it, would likely result in substantial costs and divert managements attention and other Company resources.
ITEM 2. | PROPERTIES |
We do not own any real property. We lease our Tampa corporate office and lease no other properties. In our Tampa office we maintain clinical operations, business development, accounting, financial and regulatory reporting and other management information systems, and provider and member service functions. Future payments under this noncancelable lease for office space are included in Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II herein. We believe our current office space is suitable and adequate to meet our existing needs and that additional facilities will be available for lease to meet our future needs, if necessary.
ITEM 3. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
In the ordinary conduct of our business, we are subject to periodic lawsuits and claims. Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of lawsuits and claims asserted against us, we do not believe that any currently pending legal proceedings to which we are a party could have a material adverse effect on our business, or our future results of operations, cash flows or financial condition except as described below:
(1) | We initiated an action against Jerry Katzman, a former director, in July 2009 alleging that Mr. Katzman fraudulently induced us to enter into an employment agreement and, alternatively, that Mr. Katzman breached that alleged employment agreement and was rightfully terminated. In September 2010, the matter proceeded to a trial by jury. The jury found that Mr. Katzman did not fraudulently induce CompCare to enter into the contract but also found that Mr. Katzman was not entitled to damages. On defendants motion to amend the verdict due to inconsistency, the trial court set aside the jury verdict and awarded Mr. Katzman damages of approximately $1.3 million. The Company appealed the lower courts decision and posted a collateralized appeal bond for approximately $1.3 million. On February 14, 2013, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals of the State of Florida reversed the lower courts judgment in favor of Katzman and remanded the case for a new trial on both liability and damages. The appellate court also taxed appellate costs in favor of CompCare against Katzman. The decision of the appellate court also reverses the lower courts award of attorneys fees previously awarded to Katzman against CompCare. |

(2) | On January 5, 2011, a complaint entitled Community Hospitals of Indiana, Inc. vs. Comprehensive Behavioral Care, Inc. and MDwise, Inc. was filed against us. The complaint claims damages of approximately $1.7 million from us and MDwise, Inc., a former client, for allegedly unpaid claims for behavioral health professional services rendered between 2007 and 2008. The complaint alleges, among other things, breach of contract and unjust enrichment, and requests recovery of alleged losses despite the absence of a contract between us and complainant. We believe the suit against the Company is without merit and are vigorously opposing the litigation. |
(3) | We are in arbitration with a former health plan client in Missouri relating to its allegation that we breached our obligation to pay claims submitted to us for payment. The arbitration is underway but has not yet progressed significantly. |
(4) | A group of health care providers in the state of Louisiana has filed suit against us claiming breach of contract in that we failed to pay claims submitted to us for payment. The litigation is currently in the discovery stage. |
Management believes that the Company has made adequate provision for any estimated probable losses, including legal defense costs, from the litigation described above.

This report includes forward-looking statements, the realization of which may be affected by certain important factors discussed previously above under Item 1A, Risk Factors.
OVERVIEW
CompCare manages the delivery of a continuum of behavioral healthcare, substance abuse, and drug management services for commercial, Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP members on behalf of health plans. It also provides these services to employees of self-insured companies and members of unions. Our managed care operations include at-risk contracts, administrative service agreements, and fee-for-service agreements. The customer base for our services is primarily health plans that contract with governmental entities. Our clinical services are provided by unrelated contracted providers on a fee for service or subcapitated basis.

Our customer base primarily includes regional health plans that do not have their own behavioral network. We provide services primarily through a network of contracted providers that includes:
| psychiatrists; |
| psychologists; |
| therapists; |
| other licensed healthcare professionals; |
| psychiatric hospitals; |
| general medical facilities with psychiatric beds; |
| residential treatment centers; and |
| other treatment facilities. |
The services provided through our provider network include outpatient programs (such as counseling or therapy), intermediate care programs (such as intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization services), inpatient programs and crisis intervention services. We do not directly provide treatment or own any treatment facility.
We typically enter into contracts on an annual basis to provide managed behavioral healthcare, substance abuse, and pharmacy management services to our customers members. Our arrangements with our clients fall into two broad categories:
| At-risk arrangements under which our clients pay us a fixed fee per member in exchange for our assumption of the financial risk of providing services; and |
| ASO arrangements where we manage behavioral healthcare programs or perform various managed care services, such as clinical care management, provider network development, and claims processing without assuming financial risk for member behavioral healthcare costs. |
We also cover pharmacy management services, where we receive an additional per-member per-month amount. We manage pharmacy services through the collection and analysis of pharmacy claims data which is provided by the health plans pharmacy benefit manager (PBM), whose primary functions are claims adjudication and drug cost negotiation. Through data analysis and usage evaluation against clinically sound, evidence-based criteria, we are able to identify ineffective, inappropriate and costly drug utilization. Our approach is to address these issues in a collaborative manner with the primary care physicians and psychiatrists through the provision of useful information based on our analysis. Our goal is to produce positive outcomes for patients while controlling pharmacy costs.
Under at-risk arrangements, the number of covered members as reported to us by our clients determines the amount of premiums we receive, which is independent of the cost of services rendered to members. The amount of premiums we receive for each member is fixed by our contract at the beginning of our contract term. Under certain circumstances these premiums may be subsequently adjusted up or down, or the contract terminated, generally at the commencement of each renewal period.
Our largest expense is the cost of behavioral health services and pharmacy drugs that we provide, which is based primarily on our arrangements with healthcare providers. Since we are subject to increases in healthcare operating expenses based on an increase in the number and frequency of our members seeking behavioral care services, our profitability depends on our ability to predict and effectively manage healthcare operating expenses in relation to the fixed premiums we receive under at-risk arrangements. Providing services on an at-risk basis exposes us to the risk that our contracts may ultimately be unprofitable if we are unable to control or otherwise anticipate healthcare costs. Accrued claims payable and claims expense are our most critical accounting estimates. See Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates below.

Table of Contents
During 2012, we managed programs through which services were provided to recipients in 22 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Our objective is to provide easily accessible, high quality behavioral healthcare and pharmacy services and to manage costs through measures such as the monitoring of hospital inpatient admissions and the review of authorizations for various types of outpatient therapy. Our goal is to combine access to quality behavioral healthcare services with effective management controls in order to ensure the most cost-effective use of healthcare resources.
Our programs and services include:
| management of prescription drugs on an at-risk basis for health plans, self-insured companies, and unions; |
| fully integrated behavioral healthcare and pharmacy management services; |
| analytic services for medical and pharmacy claims for medical integration of behavioral and medical care coordination; |
| case management/utilization review services; |
| administrative services management; |
| preferred provider network development; |

Recent Developments
New Business
In March of 2013, we entered into an agreement with Local No. 29 of the Laborers International Union of North America to provide our Pharmacy Savings Management Program. Through the use of selected pharmacy benefits managers, pharmacy data analytics, and the development of cost-saving ancillary pharmacy programs, we believe we can reduce drug costs for our clients that utilize our program.
Effective January 1, 2013, we began providing administrative behavioral health services to approximately 3,000 members of a Medicare Advantage population serviced by a health plan in the state of California.
Contract Terminations
On December 31, 2012, the contract with our major Puerto Rico client expired and was not renewed. Under the contract, we provided services on an at-risk basis to approximately 220,000 Medicare members. The contract accounted for 82.5%, or $56.1 million, and 67.9%, or $48.4 million, of our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Debt Modification
On March 15, 2013, we executed an agreement with a creditor to modify the terms of a previously matured but unpaid promissory note in the amount of $1.4 million. Under the modified terms of the note, the maturity date was extended from February 28, 2013 to January 31, 2014 and the conversion price at which the note may be converted into our common stock was reduced to $0.125 from $0.25. In addition, the exercise price of a warrant to purchase our common stock issued in conjunction with the note was reset from $0.44 to $0.22. We also assigned certain receivables and a potential arbitration recovery to the creditor as a source of future repayment of a second loan from the creditor in the amount of $625,000 maturing May 14, 2013 and a $75,000 loan from an individual related to the creditor also due on May 14, 2013. Any proceeds remaining from the assigned receivables and potential recovery after repayment of the aforementioned loans will be used to reduce the principal of the $1.4 million loan, but not in excess of $300,000.

Financial Performance Summary
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 2012 AS COMPARED TO 2011.
Revenues: Total managed care revenues decreased 3.3%, or approximately $2.3 million, for 2012 compared to 2011. We experienced increases and decreases in the various categories of such revenues as follows:
At-risk behavioral health contracts: Operating revenues from at-risk contracts decreased by 24.3%, or approximately $8.5 million, to $26.6 million for 2012 compared to $35.1 million for 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to the loss of customers in Missouri, Texas and Wisconsin during the end of 2011 and throughout 2012 of $9.2 million and to the loss of contracts in Louisiana and Michigan of $3.3 million during the third and fourth quarters of 2012. The decrease was offset by approximately $4.1 million in additional revenues from new customers and others that were previously under contract.
ASO contracts: Revenue from ASO contracts increased by 4.7%, or approximately $0.1 million, to $2.9 million for the year December 31, 2012, due primarily to $0.5 million of additional revenue from the expansion of business of previously existing ASO customers, offset by loss of contracts of $0.4 million for 2012 as compared to 2011.
Pharmacy management contracts: Pharmacy revenue increased by 18.2%, or approximately $6.0 million, to $39.4 million for 2012 from approximately $33.3 million for 2011 primarily due to a 6.5% increase in membership and a 11% contract rate increase effective January 1, 2012 from our major customer in Puerto Rico (which was discontinued for 2013).
Costs of revenues: Total costs of revenues decreased approximately 23.0%, or $16.4 million, in 2012 as compared to 2011 for reasons set forth in the following four paragraphs.
Claims costs, at-risk behavioral health contracts: Claims expense on at-risk contracts decreased by 25.9%, or approximately $7.3 million, to $20.9 million for 2012 as compared to 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction of claims related to contracts lost in Missouri, Texas, and Wisconsin during the fourth quarter of 2011 and throughout 2012 as described above as compared to the comparable period. The claims costs decrease was offset by increases of $1.5 million and $1.4 million resulting from the expansion of existing contracts and the addition of new at-risk business, respectively. Claims costs as a percentage of at-risk revenues decreased to 78.6% for 2012, from 80.4% for 2011, due to decreased utilization of services in 2012.
Pharmacy drug costs: Pharmacy costs decreased by 18.5%, or approximately $6.3 million, to $27.6 million for 2012 as compared to $33.9 million for 2011. The decrease is attributable to a $4.0 million resolution of a contract interpretation dispute with our major customer in Puerto Rico relating to the removal of non-psychotropic drugs charged to us by the health plans pharmacy benefit manager and the effect of the lower cost of a recently available generic version of a highly prescribed drug. The decrease was offset by higher drug costs attributable to greater drug utilization accompanying a 6.5% increase in membership. Pharmacy costs as a percentage of pharmacy revenue decreased from 101.8% for 2011 to 70.2% for 2012, due to an increase in the contract rate effective January 1, 2012 for our major customer in Puerto Rico (which was discontinued in 2013), the aforementioned $4.0 million adjustment and decrease in the cost of the highly prescribed drug.
Contract loss allowance: During 2012, we reversed $450,000 of an excess contract loss allowance that we had established at December 31, 2011 for our Louisiana contract because the allowance was no longer needed due to the early termination of the contract.
Other healthcare operating expenses: Other healthcare operating expenses are for administration, such as salaries, employee benefits and external medical case review fees, decreased $1.9 million to $6.7 million for 2012, as compared to $8.7 million for 2011. The decrease is primarily attributable to salary reductions and cost savings from employee reductions in 2012. Total healthcare costs as a percentage of total operating revenue decreased to 9.8% for 2012 compared to 12.2% for 2011.
General and administrative expense: General and administrative expense decreased by 40.0%, or approximately $4.5 million, to $6.8 million for 2012 as compared to 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in legal expense due to adjustments of an estimated legal settlement provision, lower equity compensation expense, and cost savings from employee reductions in 2012. As a percentage of total operating revenue, general and administrative expense decreased to 9.8% for 2012 compared to 15.8% for 2011 due to the aforementioned.

Table of Contents
Interest expense: Interest expense, excluding amortization of debt discount, increased by approximately 37.6%, or approximately $414,000, for 2012 as compared to 2011 due to an increase in the weighted average amount of debt outstanding to approximately $9.2 million during 2012, from $6.5 million for 2011 net of a decline in the average effective interest rate, excluding amortization of debt discount, for 2012, to approximately 16.4% from 16.9% for 2011, which was the result of adding $3.5 million in debt at 14% during the third quarter of 2011.
Income taxes: Our provisions for income taxes for 2012 and 2011 were attributable to income earned in Puerto Rico and certain states. During 2012, our subsidiary in Puerto Rico utilized approximately $3.0 million of deferred tax assets from net operating loss carryforwards.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During 2012, net cash increased by $88,000. Company operations resulted in a net inflow of cash of approximately $0.3 million. Cash used in financing activities consists primarily of approximately $0.1 million in proceeds from the issuance of note obligations, offset by approximately $0.4 million in debt repayments.
At December 31, 2012, we had a working capital deficiency of approximately $23.1 million, including $2.9 million of debt that was past due and, therefore, in default, and a stockholders equity deficiency of approximately $22.9 million resulting from a history of operating losses. As a result, as set forth in Notes 2 and 7 to our consolidated financial statements, there is significant uncertainty as to our ability to continue our operations as a going concern.
We expect that with our existing customer contracts, plus the addition of new contracts we are close to obtaining through our marketing efforts, including the launch of our new pharmacy management programs (see GROWTH STRATEGY under Item 1, above), that we will be able to sustain current operations over the near term. We are looking at various alternative or additional sources of financing if operations cannot support our ongoing plan. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that we will be able to find such financing in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Although subject to the risks and uncertainties discussed previously in Item 1A Risk Factors and in the following paragraph, management believes that our current cash position will likely be sufficient to meet our current levels of operations in the short term. However, failure to obtain sufficient debt or equity financing, and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations and positive cash flows from operations during 2013 would adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objectives and continue as a going concern.
The United States and other parts of the world have been experiencing a severe and widespread recession accompanied by, among other things, instability in the financial markets and reduced credit availability, and uncertainty about the effects of prospective U.S. government action on healthcare all of which are likely to continue to have far-reaching effects on economic activity for an indeterminate period. The effects and probable duration of these conditions on our future operations and positive cash flows, including our ability to obtain continued support from our major stockholders and creditors, cannot be estimated at this time.
Sources of liquidity. Our primary source of liquidity on an on-going basis consists of the monthly capitation payments we receive from our clients for providing managed care services. Based on historical experience, there is considerable reliability to be expected from these continuing contracts. However, the expiration of existing contracts or commencement of new contracts may cause our operational cash flow to vary significantly.
Our ability to continue to borrow funds on an unsecured or secured basis is unknown, as well as our ability to sell our common stock in private placements. There are no present plans in place for a public registration of any of our securities. With the exception of contracted maturities of debt, there are no other known future liquidity commitments or events.
Our external sources of funds consist primarily of borrowings, and the use and sale of our unregistered common stock as a form of liquidity. Each is described below.
Borrowings. We have used on an as-needed basis unsecured loans from related and unrelated individuals and companies to meet on-going working capital needs. The duration of the borrowings has ranged from one week to three years, with stated interest rates ranging from 7% to 24%. Certain of the loans have contained features such as the ability to convert all or a portion of the loan into our common stock, or have had a warrant for the purchase of our common stock issued in conjunction with the loan, or both. During 2012, we obtained approximately $125,000 in cash loans to fund our operations. Repayments of debt during 2012 were $378,000, which were funded from cash generated from operations and new borrowings. Future repayments are expected to be made from similar sources.
23
Table of Contents
A further source of liquidity via borrowing is the renegotiation of a portion of our convertible subordinated debentures that were due in full on April 15, 2010. We were not able to repay the debentures on the due date, but as of December 31, 2012, have converted approximately $1.8 million, or 76%, of the outstanding debentures to three-year senior promissory notes with a fixed interest rate of 14%. In connection with issuing the senior promissory notes, we also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately seven million shares of our common stock, each exercisable at a price of $0.25 and with a five year term.
Sales of common stock. We have periodically sold shares of our unregistered common stock in private placements. The funds from such sales have been used for working capital purposes. We did not sell any shares of our common stock during 2012, but did raise approximately $1.0 million through such sales during 2011.
Use of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock in lieu of cash. Certain vendors and noteholders have accepted our common stock and warrants as payment for services, interest and debt. However, during 2012, we avoided cash outlays of only approximately $16,000 for services by issuing our common stock or warrants to purchase common stock.
Our business model does not require us to make extensive investments in or use of capital resources.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make significant estimates and judgments to develop the amounts reflected and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate the appropriateness of our estimates and we maintain a thorough process to review the application of our accounting policies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe our accounting policies specific to our revenue recognition, accrued claims payable, premium deficiencies and claims expense, goodwill, and income taxes are critical to the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue recognition. The majority of our managed care activities are performed under at-risk arrangements pursuant to terms of agreements primarily with health plans to provide contracted behavioral healthcare and pharmacy management services to subscribing members. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, such agreements accounted for approximately 96%, or $66.0 million and 96%, or $68.4 million, respectively, of our revenue. Revenue under these agreements is earned continuously over time regardless of services actually provided and, therefore, is recognized monthly based on the number of qualified members. The information regarding qualified members is supplied by our clients, and we review member eligibility records and other reported information to verify its accuracy and determine the amount of revenue to be recognized. The remaining balance of our revenues is earned and recognized as services are delivered on a non-risk basis.
We also manage the psychotropic drug benefit under certain behavioral health contracts for certain health plans subscribing members and are responsible for the cost of drugs dispensed. In accordance with the contracts, the health plans pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) performs drug price negotiation and claims adjudication. As such, payment for our pharmacy management services is withheld until a monthly or quarterly comparison of our total premium to total drug cost is made, at which time we receive or pay the difference. Accordingly, similar to our other at-risk arrangements, pharmacy drug management revenue is earned at a contracted rate per eligible member and recognized monthly.
Accrued claims payable. Claims expense, a major component of cost of revenue, is recognized in the period in which an eligible plan member actually receives services and includes a provision for claims incurred but not reported (IBNR). We contract with various healthcare providers including hospitals, physician groups and other licensed behavioral healthcare professionals either on a discounted fee-for-service or a per-case basis. We
24
Table of Contents
determine that a member has received services when we receive a claim within the contracted timeframe with all required billing elements correctly completed by the service provider. We then determine whether the member is eligible to receive the service, the service provided is medically necessary and is covered by the benefit plans certificate of coverage, and the service is authorized by one of our employees, if required. If all of these requirements are met, the claim is entered into our claims system for payment.
The accrued claims payable liability represents the estimated ultimate net amounts owed for all behavioral healthcare services provided through the respective balance sheet dates, including estimated amounts for claims IBNR. We have used the same methodology and assumptions for estimating the IBNR portion of the accrued claims liability for the last two years.
Our unpaid claims liability is estimated using an actuarial paid completion factor methodology and other statistical analyses. These estimates are subject to the effects of trends in utilization and other factors. Any significant increase in member utilization that falls outside of our estimates would increase claims expense and could adversely affect our ability to achieve and sustain improvements in profitability and positive cash flow. Although considerable variability is inherent in such estimates, we believe that our unpaid claims liability is adequate.
Whenever we believe it is probable that a future loss will be incurred under our managed care contracts based on a perceived contractual premium deficiency, and we expect to be unable to cancel our obligation or renegotiate, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, we also provide for such expected losses. We perform this loss accrual analysis on a contract-by-contract basis by taking into consideration various factors such as future contractual revenue, estimated future healthcare and maintenance costs, and each contracts specific terms related to future revenue increases as compared to expected increases in healthcare costs. The estimated future healthcare and maintenance costs are based on historical trends and expected future cost increases. Our analysis at December 31, 2011 identified one contract for which it is probable that a loss will be incurred during the remaining contract term. Based on available information, we had estimated the loss at $450,000 and established an allowance for the loss on our consolidated balance sheet. At December 31, 2012, no contract loss allowance for future periods was necessary.
Accrued claims payable consists primarily of amounts established for reported claims and IBNR claims, which are unpaid through the respective balance sheet dates. Our policy is to record managements best estimate of IBNR. The IBNR liability is estimated monthly using an actuarial paid completion factor methodology and is continually reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, to reflect any change in the estimated liability as more information becomes available. In deriving an initial range of estimates, we use an industry accepted actuarial model that incorporates past claims payment experience, enrollment data and key assumptions such as trends in healthcare costs and seasonality. Authorization data, utilization statistics, calculated completion percentages and qualitative factors are then combined with the initial range to form the basis of managements best estimate of the accrued claims payable balance. However, estimating IBNR claims involves a significant amount of judgment by our management. The following are the principal factors that would have an impact on our future operations and financial condition:
| Changes in the number of employee plan members due to economic factors; |
| Other changes in utilization patterns; |
| Changes in healthcare costs; |
| Changes in claims submission timeframes by providers; |
| Success in renegotiating contracts with healthcare providers; |
| Occurrence of catastrophes; |
| Changes in benefit plan design; and |
| The impact of present or future state and federal regulations. |
The accrued claims payable ranges were between $12.9 and $13.1 million at December 31, 2012 and between $13.9 and $14.1 million at December 31, 2011. Based on the information available, we determined our best estimate of the accrued claims liability to be $13.1 million and $14.0 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively. Our accrued claims liability at December 31, 2012 and 2011 includes approximately $9.8 million and $7.3 million, respectively, of submitted and approved but unpaid claims, $3.3 million and $6.2 million for IBNR claims, respectively, and zero and $0.5 million, respectively, of contract loss allowance. A 5% increase in assumed healthcare cost trends from those used in our calculations of IBNR at December 31, 2012 could increase our claims expense by approximately $145,000. Actual claims incurred could differ from estimated claims accrued.
During 2011, we reversed our remaining claims amounts of approximately $0.8 million related to two contracts which were terminated in 2008 and for which no additional claims submission was expected. We also decreased our prior year claims expense by $0.5 million for one major contract in Puerto Rico which started in the third quarter of 2010. The adjustment was primarily due to the lack of claims payment history.
25
Table of Contents
Except for the reasons as described above, the adjustment of prior year claims expense resulted from changes in utilization patterns and changes in claim submission timeframes by providers. We consider these changes in claims expenses to be immaterial when compared to the total claims expenses incurred in prior years.
Goodwill. We evaluate the amount of any recorded goodwill at least annually, typically in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year. For 2012, we began our evaluation with a qualitative assessment of our managed care business, which is the reporting unit to which all our recorded goodwill related. Our assessment examined various indicators, primarily historical operating results, cash flows, and revenue trends, and resulted in a determination that it was more likely than not that our goodwill was impaired. To further confirm or invalidate this initial conclusion, we then proceeded to perform a quantitative analysis that calculates a fair value of the reporting unit which is then compared to the estimated fair values of our assets and liabilities. To obtain a reporting unit fair value, we used an income approach, which was heavily dependent upon managements assumptions. The income approach utilizes a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit by discounting future cash flows derived from forecasted revenues, expenses, and capital expenditures. The discount rate or weighted average cost of capital incorporates both market and company-specific risk premiums determined by management.
We compared the estimate of the reporting units fair value produced by the income approach to the net estimated fair values of our assets and determined that the implied value of goodwill was less than our recorded amount of goodwill. The amount of the adjustment required to our goodwill was calculated at that time to be 100% of the recorded balance. Accordingly, management recorded an impairment charge of approximately $12.2 million in December 2012. The goodwill impairment was a result of the expiration on December 31, 2012 of the contract with our client MMM Healthcare, Inc. and its corporate affiliate PMC Medicare Choice, Inc. which accounted for 81.5%, or $56.1 million, of our revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012.
Income taxes. Computing our provision for income taxes involves significant judgment and estimates particularly in relation to the determination of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (primarily from net operating loss carryforwards). See Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements.
Stock-based compensation. We issue various stock-based compensation awards to our employees and members of our Board of Directors. We account for the awards in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation Stock Compensation and measure compensation cost for stock options at fair value on the grant date and recognize compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the service period for those options expected to vest. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires us to use certain variable assumptions for input, to calculate the fair value of a stock award on the grant date. These assumptions, which are set forth in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements variables include the expected volatility of our stock price, award exercise behaviors, the risk free interest rate, and expected dividends. We use significant judgment in estimating expected volatility of the stock, exercise behavior and forfeiture rates developing our assumptions as follows:
Expected Volatility
We estimate the volatility of the share price by using historical data of our traded stock in combination with our expectation of the extent of fluctuation in future stock prices. We believe our historical volatility is more representative of future stock price volatility and as such it has been given greater weight in estimating future volatility.
Expected Term
A variety of factors are considered in determining the expected term of options granted. Options granted are grouped by their homogeneity based on the optionees position, whether managerial or clerical, and length of service and turnover rate. Where possible, we analyze exercise and post-vesting termination behavior. For any group without sufficient information, we estimate the expected term of the options granted by averaging the vesting term and the contractual term of the options.
Expected Forfeiture Rate
We generally separate our option awards into two groups: employee and non-employee awards. The historical data of each group are analyzed independently to estimate the forfeiture rate of options at the time of grant. These estimates are revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from estimated forfeitures.
26
Table of Contents
Risk-free interest rate
We estimate the risk-free interest rate by reference to the interest rate for a U.S. Treasury constant maturity security with the same estimated term as the stock based award being issued.
Expected dividends
No dividends are expected to be paid for the expected life of the instruments, therefore, we assume a dividend rate of zero.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
No recent accounting pronouncements have been issued that are not yet effective and have not been early adopted that we believe will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial in future periods.
ITEM 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We have no material exposure to changing interest rates as the interest rates on our short term and long-term debt are fixed. Additionally, we do not use derivative financial instruments for investment or trading purposes and our investments are generally limited to cash deposits.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Comprehensive Care Corporation
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Comprehensive Care Corporation and Subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity deficiency, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2012. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Comprehensive Care Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years in the period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Notes 2 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has not generated sufficient cash flows from operations to fund its working capital requirements. This raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Notes 2 and 7. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANYS BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Comprehensive Care Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries, each with their respective subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as, the Company, CompCare, we, us, or our).
Nature of operations:
We provide managed care services in the behavioral health, substance abuse, and pharmacy management fields for commercial, Medicare, Medicaid and Childrens Health Insurance Program (CHIP) members primarily on behalf of health plans. Our managed care operations include administrative service agreements, fee-for-service agreements, and capitation contracts. The customer base for our services includes both private and governmental entities. Our services are provided by unrelated vendors on a subcontract basis.
The majority of our managed care activities are performed under at-risk arrangements pursuant to terms of agreements with health plans to provide contracted behavioral healthcare and pharmacy services to subscribing members. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, such agreements accounted for 96%, or $66.0 million, and 96%, or $68.4 million, respectively, of our revenue. We include cost sharing/cost savings provisions in certain agreements with health plans whereby we share in the additional cost or cost savings when comparing actual claims costs to the estimated claims costs incorporated into the contracts pricing. We contract with various healthcare providers including hospitals, physician groups and other licensed behavioral healthcare professionals either on a discounted fee-for-service or a per-case basis. We determine that a member has received services when we receive a claim within the contracted timeframe with all required billing elements correctly completed by the service provider. We then determine whether the member is eligible to receive the service, the service provided is medically necessary and is covered by the benefit plans certificate of coverage, and the service is authorized by one of our employees.
We also manage the drug benefit under certain behavioral health contracts for certain health plans subscribing members and are responsible for the cost of drugs dispensed. In accordance with the contracts, the health plans pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) performs drug price negotiation and claims adjudication.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
Going concern basis:
The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis that the Company will continue its operations as a going concern. As a result of certain conditions described in Note 7, our ability to continue as a going concern will be dependent upon the success of managements plans, as set forth also in Note 7, and is subject to significant uncertainty. Except for the consideration in determining the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets from net operating loss carryforwards (Note 9), the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company has elected to not adopt the option available under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to measure any eligible financial instruments or other items at fair market value at this time. Accordingly, the Company measures all of its assets and liabilities on the historical cost basis of accounting, except as otherwise required by GAAP.
Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain minor reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates involved in the determination of an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable and accrued claims payable, including incurred but not reported, are considered by management as particularly susceptible to material change in the next year. Other significant estimates relate to stock-based compensation, valuation of goodwill, warrants and beneficial conversion features.
34
Table of Contents
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts and notes receivable are carried net of an allowance at their estimated collectible value. Since customer credit is generally extended on a short-term basis, accounts receivable do not bear interest and are uncollateralized. We manage credit risk and determine necessary allowances by evaluating customers credit worthiness before extending credit and periodically for collectability, based primarily on customers past credit history and current financial conditions and general economic conditions, results of prior collection efforts, the relative strength of our relationship therewith and, in the event of a dispute, its legal position and the estimated cost of proposed collection proceedings. Management has not established a policy for when to charge off uncollectible accounts receivable or to use external collection agencies and makes such decisions on a case-by-case basis. The maximum losses that the Company would incur if a customer failed to pay would be limited to the carrying value of the receivable after any related allowances provided.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment (Note 3) is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives ranging from 2 to 12 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the assets useful life.
ACCRUED CLAIMS PAYABLE
Accrued claims payable includes estimated claims incurred but not yet reported (IBNR) to us, and any provisions for losses under our managed care contracts when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We perform this loss accrual analysis on a contract-by-contract basis taking into consideration such factors as future contractual revenue, estimated future healthcare and maintenance costs, and each contracts specific terms related to future revenue increases as compared to expected increases in healthcare costs. Future healthcare and maintenance costs are estimated based on historical trends and expected future cost increases.
Generally, we have the ability to cancel a managed care contract with 60 to 120 days written notice or to request a renegotiation of terms under certain circumstances, if the contract is not meeting our financial goals. Prior to a cancellation, we typically submit a request for a rate increase accompanied by supporting utilization data. Although historically, our clients have been generally receptive to such requests, no assurance can be given that such requests will be fulfilled in our favor in the future. If a rate increase is not granted, we have the ability, in some cases, to terminate the contract and thereby limit our exposure to risk.
We perform quarterly reviews of our portfolio of contracts for the purpose of identifying loss contracts (as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 944-60, Premium Deficiency and Loss Recognition) and to develop a contract loss allowance, if applicable, for succeeding periods. At December 31, 2012, no contract loss allowance for future periods was deemed necessary.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their estimated fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Since our other financial liabilities are not traded in an open market, we generally use a present value technique, which is a level 3 input, as defined in GAAP, to measure the estimated fair value of these financial instruments, except for valuing stock options and warrants (see below). The rate used for discounting expected cash flows is a risk-free rate adjusted for systematic and unsystematic risk.
35
Table of Contents
Due to the inherent nature of related party transactions, we have not attempted to estimate the fair value of liabilities payable to related parties of the Company. As such, promissory notes payable with carrying values of $3,000,000 and $3,090,000, respectively, at December 31, 2012 and 2011, are excluded from the following table. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of other financial instruments (all are liabilities) at December 30, 2012 and 2011, are as follows (in thousands):

REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue under our contractual agreements to provide behavioral healthcare and pharmacy management services to subscribing members is earned regardless of services actually provided and, therefore, recognized monthly based on the number of qualified members. The information regarding qualified members is supplied by our clients subject to our periodic review of their member eligibility records and other reported information to verify its accuracy and determine the amount of revenue to be recognized. Similar to our other at-risk arrangements, pharmacy drug management revenue is recognized monthly based on a contracted rate per eligible member.
COSTS OF REVENUES
Costs of revenues consist of three major components: claims costs, pharmacy costs and healthcare operating expense. Claims costs are recognized in the period in which an eligible member actually receives services and includes an estimate for costs of behavioral health services that have been incurred but not yet reported.
We also incur pharmacy costs under contracts pursuant to which we manage the drug benefit. Pharmacy costs are recognized in the period in which an eligible member actually receives medications. The health plans PBM periodically reports the cost of drugs used, which is subtracted from our pharmacy management premium to yield a net payment to us or payment to the health plan, depending on actual drug usage. Healthcare operating expenses are any expenses associated with care administration, which are recognized in the period that they incur.
LEGAL DEFENSE COSTS
We accrue an estimate of incurred legal defense costs to be incurred in connection with pending disputes and litigation matters as part of our estimated minimum probable losses (see Note 7c).
INCOME TAXES
We are subject to the income tax jurisdictions of the U.S., Puerto Rico and multiple state tax jurisdictions. However, our provisions for income taxes for 2012 and 2011 include only state income taxes (see Note 9).
Management has evaluated our tax positions taken or to be taken on income tax returns that remain subject to examination (i.e., tax years 2008 and thereafter federally), and has concluded that there have been no uncertain tax positions (as defined in GAAP) taken that require recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. In the event of any income tax-related interest or penalties are incurred, they would be included in general and administrative expense.
STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
We grant stock options and warrants (see Note 8) to our employees, non-employee directors, note holders and certain consultants and clients allowing them to purchase our common stock pursuant to approved terms. The estimated value of the warrants issued with debt instruments is recorded as a discount on notes payable and amortized as interest expense over the term of the notes using the effective interest method.
36
Table of Contents
We use a Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of options and warrants on the measurement date and for determining the allocation of the relative values of debt and warrants. In applying the model, we use level 3 inputs, as defined by GAAP, consisting of historical data and management judgment to estimate the expected terms of the instruments. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our traded stock. We do not expect to pay dividends for the period of the expected life of the instruments, and therefore we assume no expected dividend. The assumed risk-free rates used are based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve with the same expected terms as those of the equity instruments at the time of grant.
The following table lists the assumptions utilized in applying the Black-Scholes valuation model for options and warrants.

NOTE 4 INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets at December 31, 2011, were composed of costs of customer contracts, a provider network, and accreditation. We used a straight-line method to amortize these assets over their estimated lives, which approximated three years and ended in 2012. Annual amortization for 2012 and 2011 was $28,000 and $507,000.

(1) | This note came due and was renewed for an additional one-year term in May 2012. As consideration for the renewal of the note, warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of our common stock at $0.15 per share were issued. The warrants were vested upon issuance and have a three-year term. |
(2) | During 2012, each of these two notes came due and was renewed for additional one-year terms. For the renewal of one note, we issued a three-year warrant for the purchase of 25,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.25. |
(3) | Represents a zero-coupon convertible promissory note issued in February 2010 for net proceeds of $200,000 in cash. The note came due and was renewed several times since origination. The noteholder may elect to convert all or a portion of the face value of the note into our common stock at $0.25 per share. The current note has a maturity date of May 31, 2013. |
(4) | This note was repaid in full in June and July 2012. |
(5) | Issued in December 2011, the note and any unpaid interest thereon may be converted at any time during its term into our common stock at $0.25 per share. At its original maturity in January 2012, we effectively reissued the note in the amount of $100,000 on similar terms. The reissued note matured April 30, 2012, but was renewed on a quarterly basis thereafter such that the current note is now due April 30, 2013. |
(6) | During 2010 and 2011 we issued 10% senior promissory notes maturing April 15, 2012, in exchange for certain of our the outstanding subordinated debentures that had previously matured on April 15, 2010, but were not repaid. In April 2012, the promissory notes were extended to mature on April 15, 2013, and the interest rate was increased to 14% payable semiannually. In conjunction with these notes, we also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 7.0 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share. All of the warrants have five-year terms and are currently exercisable. |
(7) | This convertible promissory note dated June 4, 2010 to a major stockholder matured June 4, 2011, but was not repaid and is in default. Interest at 24%, payable quarterly, is also in arrears. The principal and accrued but unpaid interest may be converted at any time prior to maturity into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.25 per share. In conjunction with the loan, the noteholder received warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at $0.25 per share. The warrants were vested upon issuance and have a five-year term. While waiting for a resolution of the arrearage with the noteholder, we continue to accrue interest at the rate of 24%. As of December 31, 2012, interest of approximately $1,259,000 was due and is included in other accrued expenses. For 2012 and 2011, we recognized approximately $480,000 and $648,000 of related party interest expense on this obligation. |

(1) | Represents our 7 1/2% convertible subordinated debentures that matured on April 15, 2010, and have not been repaid or exchanged for senior notes. The outstanding debentures are convertible into 12,198 shares of our common stock at $44.02 per share. Except for their classification among current liabilities, we are not able to estimate the financial effect resulting from the state of default with respect to these outstanding debentures (Note 7b). |
(2) | Represents a 10% senior promissory note that was not repaid on its maturity date of April 15, 2012. Due to a lack of contact from the holder, we were not able to modify this note to a 14% senior promissory note due April 15, 2013. |
(3) | Represents a promissory note for the sum of two notes that were consolidated into one in August 2011 now payable in monthly installments of $10,000 of principal plus interest at 10%. At December 31, 2012, eight of the required principal payments had not been paid. |
(4) | In connection with these notes, we issued to the noteholders five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 900,000 shares of our common stock at $0.44 per share. The warrants were vested and exercisable at issuance. The notes are additionally convertible into our common stock at $0.25 per share. In March 2013, we repaid $400,000 of the notes and executed an agreement to extend the maturity of the remaining $1.4 million to January 31, 2014, reduce the conversion price to $0.125 per share, and decrease the warrant exercise price to $0.22 per share. We also agreed to assign certain receivables and a potential arbitration recovery to the creditor as a source of future repayment, but not in excess of $300,000. |
(5) | In November 2011, we issued convertible promissory notes to one entity and one individual in exchange for aggregate cash proceeds of $700,000. The notes bear interest at the rate of 14%, payable quarterly, and the principal is due in May 2013. At any time during the term of the notes, the holders may elect to convert the principal and unpaid interest to our common stock at $0.25 per share. The holders also received warrants to purchase an aggregate of 350,000 shares of our common stock at $0.44 per share. The warrants, which were vested at issuance, expire in 2016. In March 2013, the warrant price was decreased to $0.22 per share and we agreed to assign certain receivables and a potential arbitration recovery to the creditor as a source of future repayment, but not in excess of $700,000. |

NOTE 7 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
a. Leases:
We lease certain office space and equipment under operating leases expiring in 2013 and 2014. The Tampa office lease contains an annual escalation clause and a provision for payment of real estate taxes, insurance, and maintenance and repair expenses. Total rental expense for all operating leases was approximately $622,000 and $642,000, respectively, for 2012 and 2011.
Future minimum payments under non-cancelable operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more, consist of the following at December 31, 2012 (amounts in thousands):
2013 |
$ | 204 | ||
2014 |
28 | |||
|
|
|||
$ | 232 | |||
|
|
b. Economic conditions and related risks, concentrations and uncertainties:
At December 31, 2012, we had a working capital deficiency of approximately $21.7 million and a stockholders equity deficiency of approximately $22.9 million resulting from a history of operating losses. We expect that with our existing customer contracts, the addition of new contracts that we are close to obtaining through our marketing efforts, the collection of receivables, the extension of vendor payments, and the launch of our new pharmacy management programs, that we will be able to sustain current operations over the near term. However, we do not currently maintain a line of credit or other committed financing arrangement with any financial institution and have not made any arrangements to obtain any additional financing but are looking at various alternative sources of financing if operations cannot support our ongoing plan. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that we will be able to find such financing in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all, or that we will be able to achieve or sustain profitable operations and positive operating cash flows in the near term. Although subject to the general economic conditions, risks and uncertainties discussed in the following paragraph, management believes that our current cash position will likely be sufficient to meet our current levels of operations in the short term, our ability to achieve our business objectives and continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time may be dependent upon the success of our plans to obtain sufficient debt or equity financing, and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations and positive cash flows from operations during 2013.
The United States and other parts of the world have been experiencing a severe and widespread recession accompanied by, among other things, instability in the financial markets and reduced credit availability, and political uncertainty in the U.S. about the effects on healthcare of recent and prospective government action, all of which are likely to continue to have far-
40
Table of Contents
reaching effects on economic activity for an indeterminate period. The probable duration and effects of these conditions on our future operations and cash flows, including our ability to obtain continued support from our major stockholders and creditors cannot be estimated at this time.
We occasionally carry cash on deposit with financial institutions in excess of federally-insured limits, and the risk of losses related to such concentrations may be significant as a result of economic conditions discussed in the foregoing paragraph. The extent of a loss to be sustained as a result of uninsured deposits in the event of a future failure of a financial institution, if any, however, is not subject to estimation at this time.
In addition, based on recent experience, our business has been concentrated among a few major customer contracts, as was the case during 2012 and 2011 when our major Puerto Rico contract generated 81.5% or $56.1 million, and 67.9% or $48.4 million, respectively, of our revenues. Customer concentrations such as this present the risk of large fluctuations in business volume should the contract terminate, which occurred with the expiration of the aforementioned Puerto Rico contract in 2012.
c. Legal matters:
We are involved in several litigation matters described as follows.
(1) | We initiated an action against Jerry Katzman, a former director, in July 2009 alleging that Mr. Katzman fraudulently induced us to enter into an employment agreement and, alternatively, that Mr. Katzman breached that alleged employment agreement and was rightfully terminated. In September 2010, the matter proceeded to a trial by jury. The jury found that Mr. Katzman did not fraudulently induce CompCare to enter into the contract but also found that Mr. Katzman was not entitled to damages. On defendants motion to amend the verdict due to inconsistency, the trial court set aside the jury verdict and awarded Mr. Katzman damages of approximately $1.3 million. The Company appealed the lower courts decision and posted a collateralized appeal bond for approximately $1.3 million. On February 14, 2013, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals of the State of Florida reversed the lower courts judgment in favor of Katzman and remanded the case for a new trial on both liability and damages. The appellate court also taxed appellate costs in favor of CompCare against Katzman. The decision of the appellate court also reverses the lower courts award of attorneys fees previously awarded to Katzman against CompCare. |
(2) | We and a former customer are being sued for damages of approximately $1.7 million for allegedly unpaid claims for behavioral health professional services rendered in, 2007 and 2008. We filed a counterclaim for breach of a settlement agreement that we believed resolved many of the claims that are the subject of the complaint, which we therefore, now believe is without merit and are vigorously opposing. |
(3) | We are in arbitration with a former health plan client in Missouri relating to its allegation that we breached our obligation to pay claims submitted to us for payment. The arbitration is underway but has not yet progressed significantly. |
(4) | A group of health care providers in the state of Louisiana has filed suit against us claiming breach of contract in that we failed to pay claims submitted to us for payment. The litigation is currently in the discovery stage. |
Management believes that the provision is adequate for the estimated probable minimum losses, including legal defense costs, to be incurred from these matters.
d. Employee retirement benefit plan:
We have a single-employer defined contribution employee retirement plan qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, for the benefit of our eligible employees. Matching contributions are made only at managements discretion and were none in 2012 and 2011.
e. Employment agreement with Chief Executive Officer:
In accordance with the employment agreement between the Company and our Board Chairman and CEO, Clark Marcus, we are obligated to pay to Mr. Marcus a total of approximately $5.7 million in base salary over the next five years. In addition, we will pay on his behalf approximately a total of $68,000 in health insurance premiums and $603,000 in life insurance premiums, also over the next five years. This compensation may, at our election, be only accrued but not paid, in whole or in part, until such time as we receive financing and/or generate sufficient cash flows, after the payment of our operating expenses, with which to pay Mr. Marcus his agreed compensation.
In the event Mr. Marcus employment is terminated without cause, or Mr. Marcus voluntarily terminates his employment within one year following a change in control, if any, we will be obligated to pay to Mr. Marcus any accrued but unpaid bonuses and the total compensation that would have been paid to him for five full years following the date of termination. In connection with this employment agreement, we have deferred compensation payable of $740,000 and $350,000 included in accrued expenses as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

f. Letters of Credit:
In connection with our former major contract to provide mental health, substance abuse and pharmacy prescription drugs management services in Puerto Rico, we obtained a letter of credit from a bank for $4,000,000 to assure the customer of our compliance with our obligations under the agreement. The letter of credit extends past the expiration date of the contract, decreasing at the rate of $666,667 monthly until the letters termination on June 30, 2013. Under such agreement, the customer may draw on all or part of the letter of credit under certain defined circumstances. Collateral for the letter of credit was provided by a major stockholder of the Company. If the client draws upon the letter of credit, we may become liable to the major stockholder for the amount of collateral accessed by the bank to fulfill its obligations thereunder.
Note 8 Equity Instruments
Our Series C preferred stock is currently convertible into common stock at the rate of approximately 316.28 common shares for each share of Series C preferred, adjustable for any dilutive issuances of common occurring in the future. Series C preferred shares vote with the common stockholders on an as-converted basis. The shares are nonparticipating except that dividends, when declared by our Board of Directors on the common stock, must be paid on the Series C stock on an as-converted basis before any dividends are paid on our common stock. The Series C is also cumulative with respect to dividends on common stock and junior series of preferred stock. Other significant rights and preferences of the Series C preferred include:
| the right to vote as a separate class to appoint five directors of the Company, and |
| liquidation preferences, whereby the Series C holders have a claim against our assets senior to the claim of the holders of our common stock in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up (the value of the liquidation preference is $250 per share, or approximately $2.6 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011). |
We also have a class of convertible preferred stock, Series D, for which 7,000 shares are authorized and 250 shares were issued during the year ended December 31, 2012. The shares, which were granted in January 2012, do not vest until the tenth anniversary of the grant date. Such shares were issued in exchange for the cancelation of 120 previously granted warrants to purchase Series D shares. Once vested, a Series D preferred share will be convertible at any time into 100,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment in the event of any common stock dividend, split, combination thereof or other similar recapitalization, without additional consideration. Prior to vesting and thereafter, each Series D convertible preferred share is entitled to all voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights accorded a share of Series D convertible preferred stock. As to dividends, the Series D stock is noncumulative. If a dividend is declared on the common stock, each share of Series D stock is entitled to receive a dividend equal to 50% of the dividend declared for the common stock as if the Series D stock had been converted. Despite their nonvested status, voting rights of each share nevertheless consist of the right to cast the number of votes equal to those of 500,000 shares of common stock. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, holders of shares of Series D have the right to vote together with holders of common stock as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders. At December 31, 2012, approximately $3.4 million of compensation expense remained to be recognized over the next 9 years related to the Series D shares.
STOCK INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLANS
WARRANTS:
To Purchase Common Stock
During 2012, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 125,000 shares of our common stock to note holders. Shares acquirable pursuant to the warrants vest at the warrant grant date and/or at specified dates throughout the 24 or 36 month term of the warrants.

We recognized approximately $2,000 and $1.7 million of compensation costs during 2012 and 2011, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation costs related to warrants as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 was approximately $1,000 and $283,000, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 12 and 31 months. As a result of employee and director resignations prior to the vesting dates of their warrants, we derecognized compensation costs of approximately $25,000 and accordingly reversed its corresponding tax benefits and valuation allowance of approximately $6,000 during 2012.
Due to the significant uncertainty of future realization (Note 9), we did not recognize the effect of approximately $624,000 of potential tax benefits attributable to equity-based expense recorded for warrants issued to key employees for 2011.

OPTIONS:
From time-to-time, we grant stock options as compensation for services to our employees, non-employee directors and certain consultants (grantees) allowing grantees to purchase our common stock pursuant to stockholder-approved stock option plans. We currently have three active incentive qualified option plans, the 1995 Incentive Plan, the 2002 Incentive Plan and the 2009 Equity Compensation Plan (collectively, the Plans), that provide for the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights, limited stock appreciation rights, restricted preferred stock, and common stock grants to grantees. Grants issued under the Plans may qualify as incentive stock options (ISOs) under Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Options for ISOs may be granted for terms of up to ten years. The vesting of options issued under the 1995 and 2002 plans generally occurs after six months for one-half of the options and after 12 months for the remaining options. For the 2009 Equity Compensation Plan, the vesting period is determined by our Compensation and Stock Option Committee. The exercise
43
Table of Contents
price for ISOs must equal or exceed the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. The Plans also provide for the full vesting of all outstanding options under certain change of control events. The maximum number of common shares authorized for issuance under the Plans is 52,000,000. As of December 31, 2012, there were a total of 44,448,000 shares available for grant and 6,518,000 options outstanding, 6,201,334 of which were exercisable, under the Plans.
In addition, under our Non-employee Directors Stock Option Plan, we are authorized to issue non-qualified stock options to our non-employee directors for up to 1,000,000 common shares. Each non-qualified stock option is exercisable at a price equal to the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the common stock in the over-the-counter market for the most recent preceding day there was a sale of the stock prior to the grant date. Grants of options vest in accordance with vesting schedules established by our Board of Directors Compensation and Stock Option Committee. Upon joining our Board of Directors, directors receive an initial grant of 25,000 options for common shares. Annually, directors are granted 15,000 options for common shares on the date of our annual meeting. As of December 31, 2012, there were 801,668 shares available for option grants and 100,000 options for common shares outstanding under the non-qualified directors plan, 60,000 of which were exercisable.

During 2012 and 2011, we granted options for common shares to employees, non-employee directors and one consultant. Total recognized compensation costs during 2012 and 2011 were approximately $235,000 and $1.2 million. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, there was approximately $50,000 and $315,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to options expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 11 and 19 months. Due to significant uncertainty of future realization (Note 9), we did not recognize the effect of approximately $41,000 and $404,000 of potential tax benefits attributable to stock-based compensation expense recorded during 2012 and 2011.

Note 9 Income Taxes
At December 31, 2012, we have federal net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards totaling approximately $33.7 million, of which approximately $29.5 million is subject to Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 382 limitations (currently approximating $635,000 per year) as a result of previous changes in control. The NOLs will expire in 2022 through 2031. We are particularly vulnerable to additional changes in control in the near term due to probable future equity dilution or possible takeover because of low common stock trading prices resulting in further loss of our ability to utilize the remaining carryforwards under IRC Section 382. Primarily based on the foregoing and other facts and circumstances discussed in Note 7b, management has determined that realization of tax benefits from our NOLs and other deferred tax assets is not more likely than not at this time and, accordingly has provided an effective 100% valuation allowance at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

As of December 31, 2012, management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the evaluation date, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
A control system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, with the company have been detected.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2012 that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting. Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; |
| provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and our directors; and |
| provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Furthermore, because of changes in conditions, effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting may vary over time. Our system contains self-monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are identified.
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the system of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our system of internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
Debt Modification
On March 15, 2013, we executed a Loan Extension Agreement, filed herewith as Exhibit 4.24, with a creditor to modify the terms of a previously matured but unpaid promissory note in the amount of $1.4 million. Under the modified terms of the note, the maturity date was extended from February 28, 2013 to January 31, 2014 and the conversion price at which the note may be converted into our common stock was reduced to $0.125 from $0.25. In addition, the exercise price of a warrant to purchase our common stock issued in conjunction with the note was reset from $0.44 to $0.22. We also assigned certain receivables and a potential arbitration recovery to the creditor as a source of future repayment of a second loan from the creditor in the amount of $625,000 maturing May 14, 2013 and a $75,000 loan from an individual related to the creditor also due on May 14, 2013. Any proceeds remaining from the assigned receivables and potential recovery after repayment of the aforementioned loans will be used to reduce the principal of the $1.4 million loan, but not in excess of $300,000.

Under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, an officer, director or greater than 10% stockholder of our outstanding common stock must file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our equity securities. Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all such reports they file.

Board Leadership Structure
Our Board is led by its Chairman, Mr. Marcus, who is also CEO of the Company. We believe that having our CEO serve as Chairman of the Board provides us with unified leadership and direction and strengthens the ability of the CEO to develop and implement strategic initiatives and respond efficiently to various situations. The Board is aware of the potential conflicts that may arise when an insider chairs the Board, but believes any such conflicts are offset by the fact that independent directors comprise a majority of the Board and each of its committees. The committees facilitate deeper analysis of various matters and promote regular monitoring of our activities in their advisory role to the Board. At present, the Board believes that its current structure effectively maintains independent oversight of management and that having an independent director as Chair is unnecessary. The Board has the ability to quickly adjust its leadership structure should business or managerial conditions change.
The Boards Role in Risk Oversight
The Board has delegated its risk oversight responsibilities to the Audit Committee which in turn relies on periodic reports from our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) committee. The ERM committee meets on an as-needed basis and is comprised of our Chief Accounting Officer (CAO) and certain vice presidents from our various functional areas. The ERM committees purpose is to identify, evaluate, monitor and propose risk mitigation strategies in response to risks that may have an adverse effect on the realization of our corporate goals. Should the Audit Committee be informed of a risk of a nature requiring discussion by the full Board, it will bring the matter before the Board at its next meeting or sooner if conditions warrant.
Governance and Nominating Committee
Our Board does not utilize a separate Governance and Nominating Committee. Instead, our full Board performs the functions that are normally the responsibility of a Governance and Nominating Committee. In considering candidates for open Board positions, diversity of background and personal experience is considered by the Board in assembling a group of individuals that will work well together in overseeing our affairs. Although we do not have a formal diversity policy, the Board considers, among other things, diverse business experiences, the candidates range of experiences with public companies, and racial and gender diversity in evaluating Board candidates. While diversity in background in directors is important, it does not necessarily outweigh other attributes or factors the Board may consider in evaluating any particular candidate.

Code of Ethics
We have adopted a code of ethics applicable to all of our employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial and accounting officer and persons performing similar functions. The text of this code of ethics can be found on our website at www.compcare-shareholders.com. We intend to post notice on our website of any waiver from, or amendment to, any provision of our code of ethics.
Audit Committee
Although we are not required to have an Audit Committee, we maintain one whose primary function is to assist the Board of Directors (the Board) in the oversight of the integrity of our financial statements, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, the identification and management of risk, and in evaluation of the performance of our independent auditor. As of December 31, 2012, the Audit Committee of our Board consisted of Arnold B. Finestone, (Chairman), Joshua I. Smith, and Arthur K. Yeap. The Board of Directors has determined that, although not applicable in our case, all members of the Committee nevertheless were independent as defined in Section 303A of the New York Stock Exchanges listing standards and SEC Rule 10A-3, and that Dr. Finestone qualifies as an financial expert, as defined by Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. The Audit Committee held four meetings during 2012.
Compensation and Stock Option Committee
The purpose of the Compensation and Stock Option Committee is to determine, or recommend to the Board for determination, the direct and indirect compensation of the CEO and all other officers and to administer any incentive compensation plans from which stock options and other stock based awards may be granted. At December 31, 2012, the Compensation and Stock Option Committee of our Board consisted of Arthur K. Yeap (Chairman), Sharon Kay Ray, and Arnold B. Finestone. Although the Compensation and Stock Option Committee did not hold a formal meeting during 2012, a resolution was adopted by unanimous written consent to address certain Company matters.
Compensation Policies and Practices as They Relate to the Companys Risk Management
Our Board of Directors has determined that our compensation policies are not reasonably likely to create risks that would have a material adverse effect on us.
Compensation Consultants
We did not use any compensation consultants during 2012.
Indemnification matters
In connection with our indemnification program for executive officers and directors, Mr. Marcus, Mr. Kulbick, and Mr. Landis, as well as nine current, key management employees, directors, or subsidiary directors, 26 former directors, and 19 former officers, are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Indemnification Agreements. We consider it desirable to provide each indemnitee with specified assurances that we can and will honor our obligations under the Indemnification Agreements, including a policy of insurance to provide for directors and officers liability coverage.

ITEM 13. | CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE |
Transactions with Related Persons
In connection with an employment agreement with our Chairman and CEO, Clark A. Marcus, we have deferred compensation and bonuses payable to this individual of approximately $740,000 as of December 31, 2012.
During 2012 and 2011, we recognized interest expense of approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively, in connection with loans from major stockholders of the Company.
Although we do not have a separate, written policy over the review and approval of related party transactions, the Companys authority guidelines that delineate the responsibilities of management and the Board of Directors state that all related party transactions shall be reviewed and approved by the Board. Such review procedures require management to
57
Table of Contents
conduct an initial review of the transaction and submit its recommendation to the full Board. The Board will then review managements recommendation, and based on such factors as materiality, business purpose, comparability to other arms-length transactions, and effect on the Companys business, will approve or deny managements request to enter into the transaction or relationship.
Director Independence
Although we are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and therefore not subject to its requirements, we nevertheless have used the definition of independent set forth in Section 303A of the New York Stock Exchange listing standards for the purpose of determining the independence of our directors and members of a committee of our Board of Directors. Such standards define an independent director, generally, as one who has no material relationship with us, has not been employed by us within the last three years, has not received compensation from us in excess of $120,000 other than director and committee fees, is not related to a person who is a partner or employee of our external auditor, is not related to any of our officers, and is not an officer or owner of a business having transactions with us that exceed the greater of $1 million or 2% of our consolidated gross revenues.
The following is a list of individuals that served as a director at any point during the twelve-month period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K and that were considered independent:
Arnold B. Finestone
Joshua I. Smith
Sharon Kay Ray
Arthur K. Yeap
David R. Pitts
Jairo Estrada
There were no transactions, relationships, or arrangements considered by the Board of Directors in determining that a director is independent other than those described immediately above under the caption Transactions with Related Persons.
ITEM 14. | PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANTS FEES AND SERVICES |
Audit and Related Fees
The firm of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. (MHM) (formerly Kirkland, Russ, Murphy & Tapp P.A.) currently serves as our independent registered public accounting firm to perform audits and to prepare our income tax returns. The Audit Committee approved 100% of the services described below for audit, tax and related fees.
Audit Fees. The aggregate fees billed by MHM for services relative to audits of our annual consolidated financial statements and review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q conducted during 2012 and 2011 were $146,000 and $116,000, respectively.
Audit-Related Fees. The aggregate fees billed by MHM for assurance and related services related to the performance of the audit or review of our consolidated financial statements and not described above under Audit Fees were $7,500 for 2012 and $5,800 for 2011 principally for audits of our 401(k) plan.
Tax Fees. During 2012 and 2011, CBIZ Kirkland, Russ, Murphy & Tapp billed $36,815 and $33,540 to us, respectively, for preparing our tax returns.
All Other Fees. The aggregate fees billed by MHM and CBIZ Kirkland, Russ, Murphy & Tapp for professional services other than services described under Audit Fees, Audit-Related Fees and Tax Fees above were $15,294 and $645 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively, primarily for miscellaneous research projects.
Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors
The Audit Committees policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm and assure that the provision of such services does not impair the firms independence. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Management is required to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date.

The Audit Committee does not believe the provision of non-audit services by our independent registered public accounting firm impairs the ability of such firm to maintain independence with regard to the Company.
