Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information furnished in the interim condensed financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Operating results for the six-months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.
NOTE 2 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with ASC 855-10 Company management reviewed all material events through the date of issuance and there are no material subsequent events to report.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Statements and Results of Operations
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. For this purpose any statement contained in this report that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking, including statements about our revenue, spending, cash flow, products, actions, intentions, plans, strategies and objectives. Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “may,” “hope,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate” “projected” or “continue” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainty, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control. These factors include but are not limited to economic conditions generally and in the industry in which we and our customers participate; competition within our industry, including competition from much larger competitors; legislative requirements or changes which could render our services less competitive or obsolete; our failure to successfully develop new services and/or products or to anticipate current or prospective customers’ needs; price increases or employee limitations; and delays, reductions, or cancellations of contracts we have previously entered.
Forward-looking statements are predictions and not guarantees of future performance or events. The forward-looking statements are based on current industry, financial and economic information, which we have assessed but which by its nature, is dynamic and subject to rapid and possibly abrupt changes. Our actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied by such forward-looking statements due to risks and uncertainties associated with our business. We hereby qualify all our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. We undertake no obligation to amend this report or revise publicly these forward looking statements (other than pursuant to reporting obligations imposed on registrants pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this report and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Throughout this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms, “we,” “us,” “our” or “the Company” refer to Pacific Health Care Organization, Inc., (“PHCO”) and our wholly-owned subsidiaries Medex Healthcare, Inc. (“Medex”) and Industrial Resolutions Coalition, Inc. (“IRC”), Medex Managed Care, Inc. (“MMC”), Medex Legal Support, Inc., (“MLS”) and Medex Medical Management, Inc. (“MMM”).
Overview
Through our subsidiary Medex, we engage in the business of managing and administering Health Care Organizations (“HCOs”) and Medical Provider Networks (“MPNs”) in the state of California. For many years, workers’ compensation costs in California have been high. Under the traditional model of workers’ compensation insurance coverage, the employer controls the selection of the medical provider for the first 30 days after the injury is reported. Thereafter the employee chooses the treating physician and the employer has no further control over the treatment of the patient. Since 1993, the legislature in California has enacted various laws designed to introduce alternatives to the traditional model of workers’ compensation aimed at controlling costs by giving employers greater control over the medical treatment of injured workers for a longer period of time.
In 1993 the California legislature passed a bill that established Health Care Organizations. An HCO is a network of health care professionals specializing in the treatment of workplace injuries and in back-to-work rehabilitation and training. The benefit of the HCO to an employer is two-fold. First, the employer is able to control the medical treatment of the injured employee for 90 to 180 days rather than during just the first 30 days. Second, the HCO provides the employer a network of trained providers to which it can refer its injured employees who specialize in treating work place injuries.
Under the HCO guidelines, all HCOs are required to pay certain annual fees to the California Division of Workers’ Compensation (“DWC”). This annual fee is based on the number of employees enrolled in the HCO.
In 2004 the California legislature enacted laws that created MPNs. Like an HCO, an MPN is a network of health care professionals, but MPN networks are not required to have the same level of medical expertise in treating employee work place injuries. Under an MPN program, the employer dictates which physician the injured employee will see for the initial visit. Thereafter, the employee can choose to treat with any physician within the MPN network.
By virtue of our continued certification as an HCO, we were statutorily deemed to be qualified as an approved MPN. As a licensed HCO and MPN, we are able to offer our clients an HCO program, an MPN program and a combination of the HCO and MPN programs. Under this combination model, an employer can enroll its employees in the HCO program then, prior to the expiration of the 90 or 180 day treatment period under the HCO program, the employer can enroll the employee into the MPN program. This allows employers to take advantage of both programs. To our knowledge, we are currently the only entity that offers both programs together.
Through our wholly-owned subsidiary IRC we participate in the business of creating legal agreements for the implementation and administration of Carve-Outs for California employers with collective bargaining units.
Our wholly-owned subsidiary MMC oversees and manages our utilization review (“UR”) and medical bill review (“MBR”). Through our wholly-owned subsidiaries MLS and MMM we offer lien representation services and nurse case management (“NCM”) services, respectively.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Revenue
The total number of employee enrollees increased 27% during three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to June 30, 2011 Total revenues increased 81% to $1,123,911. As of June 30, 2012, we had approximately 403,000 total enrollees. Enrollment consisted of approximately 64,000 HCO enrollees and 339,000 MPN enrollees. By comparison as of June 30, 2011 we had approximately 318,000 total enrollees, including approximately 49,300 HCO enrollees and approximately 268,700 MPN enrollees.
The net increase in HCO and MPN enrollees of approximately 14,700 and 70,300, respectively from June 30, 2011 to June 30, 2012, was mainly the result of increased enrollment realized by our existing customers and the addition of four new HCO customers and three new MPN customers. Even though HCO enrollment increased approximately 22% year-on-year, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2012, HCO enrollment decreased by 1,000 enrollees. By comparison, MPN enrollment increased by 16,000 enrollees quarter-on-quarter. While the economic slowdown impacted our revenue throughout fiscal 2011, we anticipate revenue will continue to be moderately higher throughout fiscal 2012.
In the current economic environment, we anticipate businesses will continue to seek ways to reduce their workers’ compensation program costs. As a result, we expect to experience client turnover, in the form of existing employer clients seeking to terminate or renegotiate the scope and terms of existing services. We also anticipate our market may shrink as some employers seek to reduce their costs by managing their workers’ compensation care services in-house. In response to the changing market, we have sought to expand our marketing efforts for some of the additional services we now offer our clients. As a result, during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we realized increases in our MBR and UR services fee revenues.
HCO Fees
During the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, HCO fee revenues were $192,240 and $187,213, respectively. While HCO enrollment increased 30% during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we realized only a 3% increase in revenue from HCO fees when compared to the same period last year. The percentage increase in enrollment outpaced the percentage increase in revenue by 27%. This was the result of changes in our fee structure and our offering bundled services, including MBR, UR and NCM services to a number of new clients, which resulted in increased enrollment, without increasing HCO fees charged.
MPN Fees
MPN Fee revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $181,310 compared to $147,363 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. During the quarter ended June 30, 2012 we realized a 26% increase in MPN enrollment when compared the same period 2011 and a corresponding 23% increase in revenues.
Other Fees
Other fees consist of revenues derived from MBR, NCM, UR, lien representation services and network claims repricing services provided by Medex, MMC, MMM and MLS. Other fee revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $750,361 and $279,101, respectively.
Our MBR and UR revenues increased by $180,083 and $152,280 during the second fiscal quarter 2012, respectively, when compared to the same period of fiscal 2011. MBR and UR service revenues grew largely as a result of increased marketing efforts by MMC in these areas of our business.
NCM revenues increased $67,754 to $155,014 primarily as a result of increased customer employee enrollment. We retain nurses on our staff who, at the request of our customers, will review the medical portion of a claim on behalf of our employer clients, claims managers and injured workers. We offer nurse case management services to our customers on an optional basis. We charge an additional fee for nurse case management services.
Our network claims repricing fees are generated from certain customers’ split cost savings generated from their PPO. Network claims re-pricing fees increased from $15,420 during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $68,542 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 resulting primarily from the addition of two new customers during the fourth quarter 2011.
We commenced offering lien representation services in February 2012 and recorded revenues totaling $18,021 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Expenses
Total expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $815,012 and $545,957, respectively. The increase of $269,055 was the result of increases in depreciation, consulting fees, outsource service fees, salaries and wages, professional fees, insurance, data maintenance and general and administrative expense.

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, consulting fees increased to $114,877 from $105,882 during the three months ended June 30, 2011. This increase of $8,995 was due mainly from the higher fees incurred resulting from the replacement of our information technology firm in January 2012
Additionally, in the event we see an increased level of services requested from our customers, especially for nurse case management services which would require us to engage additional nurse case managers, we could experience higher consulting fees.
Salaries and Wages
Salaries and wages increased $149,630 or 41% to $369,604 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in salaries and wages was primarily due to the MMC hiring two supervisors and three administrative support personnel in July 2011, one MBR administrator in January 2012 and Medex hiring a nurse case manager in October 2011, an administrative support personnel in July, November and December of 2011 and three temporary support personnel in June 2012.
Professional Fees
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred professional fees of $69,187, compared to $50,770 during the three months ended June 30, 2011. This 36% increase in fees was primarily the result of increased accounting and legal expenses incurred in connection with preparing our financial reports.
Insurance
During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred insurance expenses of $52,170, a $13,958 increase over the prior year three-month period. The increase in 2012 was primarily due to premium increases for our employee group health medical coverage resulting from the increase in our total number of employees. We are currently reviewing our entire company insurance policies and do not expect a material increase during the remainder of this fiscal year.
Outsource Service Fees
Outsource service fees consist of costs incurred by MMC, Medex and MMM in outsourcing its MBR services and certain NCM and UR services. We do not, at this time, have enough volume to justify creating our own MBR and UR in-house staff. We utilize outside vendors to provide specific services for our clients, charging additional fees over and above those paid to vendors for administration and coordination of MBR, NCM and UR services directly to the clients. We incurred $81,371 and $30,965 in outsource service fees during the three month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This $50,406 increase was primarily the result of the increased demand for our MBR and UR services.
Data Maintenance
During the three months period ended June 30, 2012 we experienced a 50% increase in data maintenance fees. The increase in data maintenance fees was primarily attributable to increased data maintenance costs associated with the increase in MPN enrollees, offset by lower prices negotiated with third party service providers.
General and Administrative
During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred general and administrative expenses of $107,291, a $20,068 increase over the prior year three-month period. The increase in 2012 was primarily the result of higher rent expenses incurred by leasing addition space during January 2012 and increased travel and entertainment expense.
Net Income
During the three months ended June 30, 2012, total revenues of $1,123,911 were higher by $510,234 when compared to the same period in 2011. This increase in total revenues was partially offset by increases in total expenses of $269,055 resulting in income from operations of $308,899 compared to income from operations of $67,720 during three months ended June 30, 2011. Correspondingly, we realized net income of $186,382 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to net income of $45,378, during the three months ended June 30, 2011. We expect moderate increases in revenues to continue in the third quarter of 2012, when compared to the third quarter of 2011, to be generated from new services offered by the Company to existing and new customers in the areas of MBR and clinical, non-clinical UR and other services.
Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Revenue
The total number of employee enrollees increased 27% during six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to June 30, 2011. Total revenues increased 88% to $2,189,368.
The net increase in HCO and MPN enrollees of approximately 14,700 and 70,300, respectively, was mainly the result of adding four major HCO customers and three major MPN customers. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we have also been able to increase our MBR and UR services revenues.
HCO Fees
During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 HCO fee revenues were $390,497 and $360,469 respectively. While HCO enrollment increased 30% during the six months ended June 30, 2012, we realized only a 8% increase in revenue from HCO fees when compared to the same period last year. As noted above, the percentage increase in enrollment outpaced the percentage increase in revenue as a result of the lower fee schedule for our new customers compared to the same period last year.
MPN Fees
MPN Fee revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $364,346 compared to $284,670 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. We had an increase in MPN enrollment of 26% during the six months ended June 30, 2012, as noted above, which resulted in a 28% increase in MPN revenues compared to the same period 2011.
Other Fees
As mentioned above other fees consist of revenues derived from MBR, NCM, UR, lien representation services and network claims repricing services provided by Medex, MMC, MMM and MLS. Other fee revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $1,434,525 and $518,364, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, MBR and UR revenues increased by $372,500 and $274,175, respectively, when compared to the same period of fiscal 2011. MBR and UR service revenues grew largely as a result of increased marketing efforts by MMC in these areas of our business.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, NCM revenue was $297,406 and $152,411, respectively. This increase of $144,995 was primarily the result of increased customer employee enrollment.
We commenced offering lien representation services in February 2012 and have recorded revenues totaling $22,286 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012. We did not offer such services during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
During the six months period ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, network claims repricing fees were $136,688 and $34,484, respectively.
Expenses
Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $1,613,695 and $1,058,028, respectively. The increase of $555,667 was the result of increases in depreciation, consulting fees, outsource service fees, salaries and wages, professional fees, insurance, data maintenance and general and administrative expense.
Consulting Fees
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, consulting fees increased to $210,693 from $185,227 during the six months ended June 30, 2011. This increase in consulting fees of $25,466 was due mainly to the addition of a nurse case manager and the hiring of a temporary administrative consultant during June 2011 and January 2012, respectively and the incurring of increased consulting fees resulting from the replacement of our information technology firm in January 2012.
Salaries and Wages
Salaries and wages increased $366,562 or 86% to $795,198 during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in salaries and wages was primarily due to MMC hiring two supervisors and three administrative support personnel in July 2011, one MBR administrator in January 2012 and Medex hiring a nurse case manager in October 2011, an administrative support personnel in July, November and December of 2011 and three temporary support personnel in June 2012.
Professional Fees
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred professional fees of $118,275 compared to $96,952 during the six months ended June 30, 2011. This 22% increase in professional fees was primarily the result of increased accounting fees, legal fees and professional fees paid for nurse case management services.
Insurance
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred insurance expenses of $97,907 an increase of $30,726 over the same six-month period of 2011. The increase in 2012 was primarily due to premium increases for our employee group health medical coverage resulting from the increase in our total number of employees. We are currently reviewing our entire company insurance policies and do not expect a material increase during the remainder of this fiscal year.
Outsource Service Fees
As discussed above, outsource service fees consist of costs incurred by our subsidiaries in outsourcing its MBR services and certain NCM and UR services. We incurred $145,422 and $63,626 in outsource service fees during the six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively
Data Maintenance
During the six months ended June 30, 2012 we experienced a 30% increase in HCO enrollment and a 26% increase in MPN enrollment, resulting in an overall enrollment increase of 27%. As a result, data maintenance fees increased 21% to $20,684 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in data maintenance fees is primarily attributable to higher data maintenance costs associated with the increased employee enrollment offset by lower prices negotiated with third party service providers.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses increased 10% to $213,064 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily attributable to increases in internet expense, license and permits, office supplies, postage expense and dues and subscriptions, equipment repairs, moving expense, parking expense, and printing and reproduction expense. Provided we continue to add new customers at our current rate, we expect current levels of general and administrative expenses to increase during the remainder of this fiscal year.
Net Income
We realized net income of $342,753 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to a net income of $72,287, during the six months ended June 30, 2011. We expect moderate increases in revenues to continue in the nine-month period ending September 30, 2012, when compared to the corresponding nine-month period of 2011, to be generated primarily from new services offered by the Company to our existing and new customers in the areas of MBR and clinical and non-clinical UR and other services.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2012, we had cash on hand of $458,764 compared to $368,459 at December 31, 2011. The $90,305 increase in cash on hand is primarily the result of increases in our net profit decrease in prepaid expenses, and increases in accrued expense and income tax payable, partially offset by increases in account receivables, a decrease in accounts payable and the purchase of furniture and equipment. We believe that cash on hand and anticipated revenues from operations will be sufficient to cover our operating costs over the next twelve months. We do not anticipate needing to find other sources of capital at this time. However, if our revenue is lower than anticipated we may need to find other sources of capital to fund operations.
We currently have budgeted approximately $50,000 for capital expenditures planned for the third quarter of this year and do not anticipate needing to seek outside sources of funding during the remainder of the current year. We do, however, from time to time, investigate potential opportunities to expand our business either through the creation of new business lines or the acquisition of existing businesses. We have not identified any suitable opportunity at the current time. An expansion or acquisition of this sort may require greater capital resources than we possess. Should we need additional capital resources, we most likely would seek to obtain such through debt and/or equity financing. We do not currently possess an institutional source of financing. Given current credit conditions, there is no assurance that we could be successful in obtaining additional debt financing on favorable terms, or at all. Similarly, given current market and economic conditions there is no guarantee that we could negotiate appropriate equity financing.
Cash Flow
During the six months ended June 30, 2012 cash was primarily used to fund operations. We had a net increase in cash of $90,305 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. See below for additional discussion and analysis of cash flow.

In January 2010 we entered into a capital lease arrangement whereby we leased an office copy machine for $25,543. The asset was recorded on our balance sheet under office equipment under capital lease and our liability incurred under the lease was recorded as current and noncurrent obligations under capital lease. The lease arrangement is for a term of 48 months at level operating rents with capital interest rate at 7%.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
As of June 30, 2012 we had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect both the recorded values of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the revenues recognized and expenses incurred during the reporting period. Our estimates and assumptions affect our recognition of deferred expenses, bad debts, income taxes, the carrying value of its long-lived assets and its provision for certain contingencies. We evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions continually based on a combination of historical information and other information that comes to its attention that may vary its outlook for the future. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions.
We believe the critical accounting policies that most impact our consolidated financial statements are described below.
Basis of Accounting — We use the accrual method of accounting.
Revenue Recognition — The Company applies the revenue recognition provisions pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605.10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”) (formerly SAB Topic 13A), which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. The guidance outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize the revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies.
In general, the Company recognizes revenue related to licensing fees on a monthly basis, over the life of the licensing agreement, and when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
Health care service revenues are recognized in the period in which fees are fixed or determinable and the related services are provided to the subscriber.
The Company’s subscribers generally pay in advance for their services by check for billings made in advance, revenue is then recognized ratably over the period in which the related services are provided. Advance payments from subscribers and billings made in advance are recorded on the balance sheet as deferred revenue. An allowance for uncollectible accounts is established for any customer who is deemed as possibly uncollectible.
Health care service revenues are recognized in the period in which fees are fixed or determinable and the related services are provided to the subscriber.
Our subscribers generally pay in advance for their services by check payment, and revenue is then recognized ratably over the period in which the related services are provided. Advance payments from subscribers are recorded on the balance sheet as deferred revenue. In circumstance where payment is not received in advance, revenue is only recognized if collectability is reasonably assured. An allowance for uncollectible accounts is established for any customer who is deemed as possibly uncollectible.
Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in (1) recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) ensuring that information disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
