Base rental income is recognized using the straight-line method over the term of the lease to the extent that lease payments are considered collectible and the lease provides for specific contractual escalators.

In the event that collectibility with respect to any tenant is not probable, a direct write-off of the receivable is made as an adjustment to rental income and any future rental revenue is recognized only when the tenant makes a rental payment.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:13.5pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:13.5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">During the second quarter of 2022, we placed Bickford Senior Living (“Bickford”) on the cash basis of revenue recognition for lease purposes and recorded write offs of $18.1 million of straight-line rents receivable and $7.1 million of lease incentives related to our Bickford master lease agreements.
