| Note: When counting the number of taxes, we counted a tax more than once when a tax was levied using different tax rates during a given year. For example, if for 6 months of the year a tax was levied at 4 percent of net patient service revenues, and for the other 6 months the tax was levied at 6 percent of net patient service revenues, we counted this as two taxes. For taxes that were reported as not being levied as a percentage of net patient service revenues, we used a similar approach in counting these taxes. |
