Because of the economic diversity of the Company’s facilities and non-governmental third-party payors, Medicare represents the only significant concentration of credit risk from payors. Accounts receivable, net of contractual allowances, from Medicare was $211 million and $232 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, representing 5% and 6% of consolidated net accounts receivable at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.</span></p>
