um fines of up to i think half million dollars which is not substantial in terms of multi-billion dollar entities but you know it's a fine and i that was supposed to do something my question is first of all how is the health department able to calculate what costs are and what they should be because they can say hey i got sicker patients than i had in the past we have sicker patients in your hospital severity it's it's all severity adjustment yeah
