CORRESP 1 filename1.htm July 11, 2025 VIA EDGAR Division of Corporation Finance Office of Industrial Applications and Services Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20549 Attn.: Al Pavot Terence O’Brien Juan Grana Katherine Bagley Re: ZYNEX, INC. Form 10-K filed March 11, 2025 File No. 001-38804 Ladies and Gentlemen: This letter is submitted by Zynex, Inc, a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), in response to comments received from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “ Staff ”) of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission in a letter dated July 2, 2025 (the “ Comment Letter ”) with respect to the Company’s Correspondence filed with the Commission on June 5, 2025. For ease of reference, the Staff’s comments contained in the Comment Letter are reprinted below in bold, numbered to correspond with the paragraph number assigned in the Comment Letter, and is followed by the corresponding response of the Company. Correspondence filed June 5, 2025 Recent Events, page 7 1. We have read your response to prior comment 3. Please provide a loss contingency disclosure in the financial statement footnotes that clearly states whether a liability has been accrued for the potential repayment of prior Tricare cash collections. See also ASC 450-20-50. Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company proposes to revise the disclosure under Recent Events as shown below in the redline. Recent Events - During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company was notified that Tricare, one of our government payers, was temporarily suspending payments as they review prior claims. The suspension of Tricare payments is based on allegations of misrepresentation of supplies and equipment billed to the Tricare program; misrepresentation of diagnosis to justify a requirement for a TENS unit or lack of physician orders regarding the replenishment of supplies. We held a meeting with Tricare in April 2025 and believe we presented good evidence to get payments reinstated. In June 2025, the Company was notified by Tricare that the temporary payment suspension will continue while they conduct further review. Tricare historically represented approximately 20-25% of our annual revenue and cash collections from Tricare were $48.8 million and $38.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As directed by Tricare, we continue to support both existing patients and new patients as we receive their prescriptions. We recognized revenue of approximately $2.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, related to Tricare which equaled the cash received from Tricare during the period. All other fulfillments and related revenue during the first quarter have been fully reserved and we have no receivables related to Tricare as of March 31, 2025. We maintain a constraint for third-party payer refund requests but do not have a specific constraint related to prior Tricare payments as Tricare has not submitted a refund request. Due to the temporary payment suspension and lack of clarity on the timing of a resolution, we restructured our staff to align with current revenue. During 2025 we decreased our overall staff by approximately 15%, which primarily affected employees in our corporate departments. This staff reduction along with other expense reductions made during the second half of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025 will result in savings of approximately $35 million annually. If any additional information is required by the Staff or if you have any questions regarding the foregoing, please contact the undersigned or our counsel, Marcelle Balcombe at Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP at (212) 930-9700. Thank you for your time and attention. Very truly yours, Zynex, Inc. By: /s/ Daniel Moorhead Daniel Moorhead Chief Financial Officer

CORRESP 1 filename1.htm June 5, 2025 VIA EDGAR Division of Corporation Finance Office of Industrial Applications and Services Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20549 Attn.: Al Pavot Terence O’Brien Juan Grana Katherine Bagley Re: ZYNEX, INC. Form 10-K filed March 11, 2025 File No. 001-38804 Ladies and Gentlemen: This letter is submitted by Zynex, Inc, a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), in response to comments received from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “ Staff ”) of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission in a letter dated May 21, 2025 (the “ Comment Letter ”) with respect to the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “ Form 10-K ”), filed with the Commission on March 11, 2025. For ease of reference, the Staff’s comments contained in the Comment Letter are reprinted below in bold, numbered to correspond with the paragraph number assigned in the Comment Letter, and is followed by the corresponding response of the Company. Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2024 We face periodic reviews and billing audits..., page 13 1. We note your disclosure that you are subject to reviews and audits from various parties; however, your risk factor does not indicate whether you have historically experienced a corresponding material adverse effect on your business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Also, the disclosure does not indicate whether you have historically lost your right to participate in the Medicare program, state programs, or one or more private payer networks. Please expand your disclosure to clarify the extent to which you have experienced any material adverse effects on your business or lost your right to participate in any government programs or private payor networks, so that investors may better assess the magnitude of these risks. In addition, please expand the succeeding risk factor about third-party payer reimbursements to disclose the extent to which you have been materially impacted. For example, we note your disclosure elsewhere that you were recently notified that TriCare, one of your government payers, was temporarily suspending payment as they review prior claims. Response : We have not experienced any material adverse effects on our business or lost our right to participate in any government program or private payer networks related to reviews and audits. We are currently involved in a review with Tricare. However, the extent and materiality of their review is currently unknown. We placed an allowance on all Tricare receivables as of December 31, 2024, and therefore have no balance sheet exposure as of that date. The Company intends to revise the risk factor included in the Form 10-K on page 13 as shown in the redline below. We face periodic reviews and billing audits from governmental and private payers, and these audits could have adverse results that may negatively impact our business . As a result of our participation in the Medicaid program and our registration in the Medicare program, we are subject to various governmental reviews and audits to verify our compliance with these programs and applicable laws and regulations. We also are subject to audits under various government programs in which third-party firms engaged by CMS conduct extensive reviews of claims data and medical and other records to identify potential improper payments under the Medicare program. Private payers also reserve the right to conduct audits. If billing errors are identified in the sample of reviewed claims, the billing error can be extrapolated to all claims filed which could result in a larger overpayment than originally identified in the sample of reviewed claims. Our costs to respond to and defend reviews and audits may be significant and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Moreover, an adverse review or audit could result in: · required refunding or retroactive adjustment of amounts we have been paid by governmental or private payers; · state or Federal agencies imposing fines, penalties, and other sanctions on us; · loss of our right to participate in the Medicare program, state programs, or one or more private payer networks; or · damage to our business and reputation in various markets. Any one of these results could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Historically, we have not experienced any material adverse effects on our business or lost our right to participate in any government program or private payer networks related to reviews and audits. We are currently involved in a temporary payment suspension with Tricare. Cash collections from Tricare were $48.8 million and $38.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. If the Company were to be required to repay all or any portion of the cash collections from 2024, 2023 or prior periods, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Failure to secure and maintain adequate coverage and reimbursement from third-party payers could adversely affect acceptance of our products and reduce our revenues. The majority of our revenues come from third-party payers, primarily insurance companies. In the U.S., private payers cover the largest segment of the population, with the remainder either uninsured or covered by governmental payers. The majority of the third-party payers outside the U.S. are government agencies, government sponsored entities, or other payers operating under significant regulatory requirements from national or regional governments. 2 Third-party payers may decline to cover and reimburse certain procedures, supplies, or services. Additionally, some third-party payers may decline to cover and reimburse our products for a particular patient even if the payer has a favorable coverage policy addressing our products or previously approved reimbursement for our products. Furthermore, private and government payers may consider the cost of a treatment in approving coverage or in setting reimbursement for the treatment. Private and government payers are increasingly challenging the prices charged for medical products and services. Additionally, the containment of healthcare costs has become a priority of governments. Adoption of additional price controls and cost-containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existing controls and measures could further limit our revenues and operating results. If third-party payers do not consider our products or the combination of our products with additional treatments to be cost-justified under a required cost-testing model, they may not cover our products for their populations or, if they do, the level of reimbursement may not be sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a profitable basis. Reimbursement for the treatment of patients with medical devices is governed by complex mechanisms. These mechanisms vary widely among countries, can be informal, somewhat unpredictable, and evolve constantly, reflecting the efforts of these countries to reduce public spending on healthcare. As a result, obtaining and maintaining reimbursement for the treatment of patients with medical devices has become more challenging. We cannot guarantee that the use of our products will receive reimbursement approvals and cannot guarantee that our existing reimbursement approvals will be maintained in any country. Our failure to secure or maintain adequate coverage or reimbursement for our products by third-party payers in the U.S. or in the other jurisdictions in which we market our products could have a material adverse effect on our business, revenues, and results of operations and cause our stock price to decline. We are currently involved in a temporary payment suspension with Tricare. Cash collections from Tricare were $48.8 million and $38.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. If the Company were to be required to repay all or any portion of the cash collections from 2024, 2023 or prior periods, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Critical Accounting Estimates, page 41 2. Your risk factor on page 14 states that inaccurate accounting estimates could have a material adverse impact on your operating results. Please expand your critical accounting policy disclosures to include quantified information about how changes to critical estimates underlying revenue recognition and collection of receivables have impacted reported revenue and operating results. Refer to Item 303(b)(3) of Regulation S-K Response: In our discussion under Variable Consideration within our Critical Accounting Estimates disclosure we disclosed that any differences between estimated settlements and final determinations are reflected as an increase or a reduction in revenue in the period when such final determinations are known. Historically these differences have been immaterial, and the Company has not had to go back and reassess the adjustments of future periods for past billing adjustments. In response to the Staff’s comment the Company intends to enhance the current disclosure as redlined below. Variable Consideration A significant portion of the Company’s revenues are derived, and the related receivables are due, from patients with commercial or government health insurance plans. Revenues are estimated using the portfolio approach 3 by third party payer type based upon historical rates of collection, the aging of receivables, trends in the historical reimbursement rates by third-party payer types and current relationships and experience with the third-party payers, which includes estimated constraints for third-party payer refund requests, deductions, allowance for uncollectible accounts, and billing allowance adjustments. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised as additional information becomes available and constraints are released. If initial estimates are updated these changes are accounted for as increases or decreases in the transaction price. Assuming the underlying performance obligation to which the change in price relates has already been satisfied, those changes in transaction price are immediately recognized as increases or decreases in revenue (not credit losses (bad debt expense)) in the period in which the estimate changes. Additionally, the complexity of third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain products from third-party payers or unanticipated requirements to refund payments previously received may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. Due to continuing changes in the healthcare industry and third-party payer reimbursement, it is possible our forecasting model to estimate collections could change, which could have an impact on our results of operations and cash flows. Any differences between estimated settlements and final determinations are reflected as an increase or a reduction in revenue in the period when such final determinations are known. Historically these differences have been immaterial, and the Company has not had to go back and reassess the adjustments of future periods for past billing adjustments. The Company monitors the variability and uncertain timing over third-party payer types in our portfolios. If there is a change in our third-party payer mix over time, it could affect our net revenue and related receivables. We believe we have a sufficient history of collection experience to estimate the net collectible amounts by third-party payer type. However, changes to constraints related to billing adjustments and refund requests have historically fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. Our net revenue as a percentage of gross revenue for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were 11% and 12%, respectively. We collected 94% of our December 31, 2023 accounts receivable balance during 2024 and 98% through April 30, 2025. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company had a change in the estimate of uncollectable receivables. An allowance was placed on a group of older receivables from a single payer. We continue to work with this payer and current collections are in line with expectations. The result of this change in allowance was a reduction of $6.2 million to net revenue ($4.6 million net of tax) or $0.14 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $0.13 per basic and diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2023. Form 10-Q filed April 29, 2025 Recent Events, page 7 3. We note TriCare is suspending payments as they review prior claims. Please discuss the nature of the TriCare matter including known material facts and circumstances, such as the magnitude of claims potentially being reviewed by TriCare, the potential impact to your financial statements if you have to reimburse TriCare, and the underlying reasons for the dispute. Tell us your consideration of providing disclosure responsive to ASC 450-20-50 in your footnotes. Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company proposes to revise the disclosure under Recent Events as shown below in the redline. 4 Recent Events - During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company was notified that Tricare, one of our government payers, was temporarily suspending payments as they review prior claims. The suspension of Tricare payments is based on allegations of misrepresentation of supplies and equipment billed to the Tricare program; misrepresentation of diagnosis to justify a requirement for a TENS unit or lack of physician orders regarding the replenishment of supplies. We held a meeting with Tricare in April 2025 and believe we had good evidence to get payments reinstated, Tricare is expected to respond in June 2025. The suspension of Tricare claims processing and payment will continue while our response is being reviewed. Tricare historically represented approximately 20-25% of our annual revenue and cash collections from Tricare were $48.8 million and $38.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively . As directed by Tricare, we continue to support both existing patients and new patients as we receive their prescriptions. We recognized revenue of approximately $2.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 related to Tricare which equaled the cash received from Tricare during the period.

This staff reduction along with other expense reductions made during the second half of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025 will result in savings of approximately $35 million annually. Results of Operations Net Revenue, page 22 4. We note sales of devices and supplies during the quarter ending March 31, 2025, decreased 15% and 55% over the comparable interim period ending March 31, 2024, and 20% and 53% over the prior quarter ending December 31, 2024. Please separately quantify the amount of the decrease from changes in volumes sold during the periods, constrained revenue from fulfilling new orders related to current period sales to TriCare patients, and adjustments to prior period revenue from changes in estimates relating to the TriCare investigation.

File No. 033-26787-D
Dear Mr. Vaughn:
This letter responds to the comment of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in its letter dated September 8, 2009 with respect to the Form 10-K Report listed above. The text of the staff’s comment is set forth below in bold followed by the response.
Form 10-K as of December 31, 2008
Consolidated Financial Statements, page F-1
Note (2) Significant Accounting Policies, page F-7
Revenue Recognition and Allowances for Provider Discounts and Uncollectibility, page F-7

We note your response to prior comment 6 in which you state that the use of an estimate of provider discounts applied against the claims sent to the providers for goods and services performed during the period is appropriate because there is sufficient historical information available within Zynex to serve as a basis for making the estimate. Please
tell us in more detail what types of historical information are available, how it is utilized in making your estimates for provider discounts and how the 2008 restatements impacted your ability to make estimates for provider discounts.
Mr. Kevin L. Vaughn
September 18, 2009
Page 2
Response:
What types of historical information are available - The Company has two sources of historical data, an accounting system and a patient tracking/insurance billing database. The Company implemented the current accounting system, Sage BusinessWorks (Sage BW), effective September
2007. From Sage BW, the Company is able to extract invoices issued and the related payments as well as an aging report for open accounts receivable. The Company also runs an accounts receivable aging from Sage BW. From the patient tracking/insurance billing database, the Company extracts the type of insurance coverage, the insurance claim amounts and the date the patient was prescribed the device. The Company also maintains a “Receivable and Allowance Movement” spreadsheet summarizing the
movements in the Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Provider Discounts and Collectability accounts.
How the information is utilized in making estimates – The Company utilizes the various reports in the following manner:
·
To determine the provision rate to be applied against the claims sent to the insurance providers, the Company maintains a “Summary Collected History” spreadsheet. Use of this spreadsheet commenced in 2009 for preparation of the December 31, 2008 financial statements, the restatements of the 2008 quarterly financial statements and the 2009 quarterly
financial statements. To prepare this spreadsheet, the Company extracts, from Sage BW, invoices by the month they were issued. The Company also extracts, from Sage BW, the payments received. The payments are then matched to the applicable invoices. The “Summary Collected History” spreadsheet shows, for each month and quarter total, the billed amount and the collected-to-date against the billed amount. The Company uses this “Summary Collected History” spreadsheet to review collection trends
and estimate what rate to use as a provision against the claims sent to the insurance providers in the current period.
·
To analyze the appropriateness of the allowance account on the balance sheet, the Company runs an Accounts Receivable Aging from Sage BW which is broken into 90 day buckets (0 – 90 days, 91 – 180 days, 181 – 270 days), based on date of invoice. The Company inserts the totals into the “Allowance Aging” spreadsheet which applies
a specific percentage to each aging category to determine the allowance needed based on historical payment patterns.
Mr. Kevin L. Vaughn
September 18, 2009
Page 3
·
The Company uses the “Receivable and Allowance Movement” spreadsheet to review the percentage applied to the allowance account versus the percentage collected in each month and on a quarterly summary. The Company also uses this spreadsheet to evaluate the ending allowance balance as a percentage of the open receivables.
·
The Company runs various reports from the patient tracking/insurance billing database including the “Less than 3 Month Collection after Rx Date” by insurance payor type. The Company uses these reports to evaluate the pool of receivables for completeness and the types of insurance companies being billed. These reports allow the Company to review
whether groups of patients have been billed in the correct period and that the mix of insurance providers in the pool is consistent.
·
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of the Company meet on a quarterly basis and review all of the reports identified above plus any known outside factors or trends in the industry. The CEO and the CFO make a determination if the allowance is appropriate or if an adjustment is necessary based on all available information.
The CEO and CFO then present their conclusions to the Audit Committee as part of each quarterly close.
How the 2008 restatements impacted the ability to make estimates – When analyzing the accounts receivable as of December 31, 2008, it became apparent that because of changes during the year largely related to changes in payor patterns in 2008 and the Company’s significant
growth in 2007 and 2008, the Company needed more information in order to better estimate the total allowance. The indication of a need to restate each of the first three quarters of 2008 arose from the information the Company developed from that analysis of accounts receivable.
The 2007-2008 growth in the number of patients in the database and the increased number of employees using the database affected the performance of the patient tracking/insurance billing database during the first three quarters of 2008. The Company implemented enhancements to the patient tracking/insurance billing database beginning
in September 2008 and has continued making enhancements since then. The initial enhancement was to increase the response performance to employees inquiring about patient records, allowing the Company to evaluate the status of claims with insurance companies on a timelier basis.
Mr. Kevin L. Vaughn
September 18, 2009
Page 4
The Company determined that the open accounts receivable as of December 31, 2008 included a large portion of older invoices. Using the performance enhancements in the patient tracking/insurance billing database, the Company made the decision to write-off all open receivables over 270 days. This allowed the use of the “Allowance Aging”
spreadsheet described above.
The Company determined as of December 31, 2008, there was sufficient data to prepare and use the “Summary Collected History” spreadsheet. This allows the Company to, among other things, assess changes in payor patterns during the year.
The restatements of the first three quarters of 2008 did not impact our ability to make estimates of provider discounts. The quarterly financial statements in 2008 used available data and analysis. The additional information developed by the Company in connection
with the 2008 year-end analysis caused the Company to conclude a restatement was necessary. The Company now has more information available to develop better estimates and more methods available to analyze the data.

Our company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filings;
·
Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filings; and

Dear Mr.
Vaughn:
This
letter responds to the comments of the staff of the Securities and Exchange
Commission in its letter dated July 15, 2009 with respect to the Form 10-K
Report listed above. The text of the staff’s comments is set forth
below in bold followed in each case by the response.

Item 9A(T). Controls and
Procedures, page 44
Management’s Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, page 44
1.
You
state that management concluded that the Company has a material weakness
in its ability to produce financial statements free from material
misstatements. Please tell us and revise future filings as
necessary to discuss how you have compensated for the material weakness in
order to ensure that the financial statements presented here in the Form
10-K are free from material misstatement, including whether or not you
applied alternative procedures.
Mr. Kevin
L. Vaughn
August

Response:
The
material weakness that management identified and disclosed in the Company’s Form
10-K was determined to exist at December 31, 2008. In order to
compensate for the material weakness and to ensure that the Company’s December
31, 2008 consolidated financial statements were free from material misstatement,
the Company performed alternative procedures during the course of preparing the
December 31, 2008 consolidated financial statements. These
alternative procedures performed by management included: 1) a detailed manual
review of the aging of accounts receivables, 2) the write-off of all accounts
over 270 days old, 3) establishment of additional methodologies to better
estimate the allowances for provider discounts (as more fully described in our
response to Staff’s comment number 9), and 4) a line-by-line review of all
purchased inventory items to correct, where needed, to current year costs of
items purchased and items which were manufactured.
Management
expects that the material weakness will be corrected by December 31, 2009.
Alternative procedure #3, referenced above, has become one of the procedures
that will be used in the preparation of future financial
statements.
2.
We
note that you have identified a material weakness in your ability to
produce financial statements free from material
misstatements. Further, you state that this material weakness
is the result of the combination of the specified significant
deficiencies. However, it is not clear from your disclosures
here what specific control deficiency or deficiencies you have
identified. Instead, it appears you have simply outlined the
items that resulted in adjustment to the financial
statements. Please tell us and revise future filings to explain
in greater detail the underlying deficiency or deficiencies in your
internal control over financial reporting. In this regard,
expand on the specific material weakness that you have identified to
explain what underlying control deficiency or deficiencies limits your
ability to produce financial statements free from material
misstatements.

Response:
The
Company will revise future filings to include disclosures substantially as
follows. Changes will be made based upon subsequent facts.
Based on
an evaluation as of December 31, 2008, management had concluded that the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of
December 31, 2008. Our principal Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that the Company had a material weakness in its ability to
produce financial statements free from material misstatements. Management
reported a material weakness resulting from the combination of the following
significant deficiencies:
·
The
Company did not have effective controls to ensure timely write-off of
uncollectible accounts receivable, resulting in an overstatement of our
accounts receivable and net revenue. The controls that were not considered
effective included a performance issue with the Company’s billing system
which prevented timely determination of accounts to be written-off and
lack of procedures to write-off uncollectible accounts receivable based
upon their aging.
·
The
Company was utilizing a method for calculating the allowance for provider
discounts and uncollectibility that was dependent on annual calculations
and annual historical results which was not reactive to rapid changes
during the year. Further, this methodology was dependent upon write-offs
which were not done timely.
·
The
Company did not have an adequate process in place to update the inventory
costing to reflect the pricing differences between purchased items and
items manufactured by the Company
In order
to remediate the material weaknesses described above, our management implemented
the following changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
during the first quarter of 2009:
·
The
Company has made enhancements to the performance of our billing system to
allow accounts to be analyzed timely, allowing write-offs to be made
timely:
·
The
Company has implemented procedures to write-off accounts receivable which
are deemed uncollectible based upon their
aging;
·
The
Company has developed a new model for analyzing the collectability of the
Company’s accounts receivable that is updated on a timely basis throughout
the year. The simultaneous use of the old model and timely write-offs of
uncollectible accounts receivable serves as a comparative tool to validate
annual trends;

3.
We
note that you recorded a “provision for losses on accounts receivable
(uncollectibility)” of $393,000 during 2008 and zero during
2007. Please explain to us the nature of this charge and
discuss why there was no similar provision during
2007.
Response:
In a
letter dated July 1, 2008, the Staff requested the Company break the “provision
for losses on accounts receivable (uncollectibility)” separately from the
“provision for provider discounts”. When preparing the 2008 comparative
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, the
Company utilized the 2007 Statement of Cash Flows as originally filed and
inadvertently did not break out the 2007 provision amount separately into these
two components. There was no effect on the total of the two provisions. The
Company believes there is not a material impact to readers of the financial
statements as there is no impact on the “net cash provided by operating
activities” in the Statement of Cash Flows and that a reader of the financial
statements would not have formed a different opinion had the amount been
presented separately. The properly classified amounts for 2007 were $4,462,724
for the provision for provider discounts and $339,000 for the provision for
uncollectibility. The Company intends to break out the components described
above in future filings for all periods presented.

We
note that you recognize revenue from distributors when you ship your
products. Please revise this note in future filings to discuss
in greater detail your revenue recognition policy with respect to sales to
distributors. Disclose any significant payment terms, return
rights, exchange provisions, price protection, discounts, sales incentives
and any other significant matters. Refer to SAB 104 and SFAS 48
as appropriate.
Mr. Kevin
L. Vaughn

Response:
Sales to
distributors have historically been a small percentage of the Company’s total
revenue (approximately $50,000, 0.4% in 2008 and approximately $25,000, 0.3% in
2007). There are no significant payment terms, return rights, exchange
provisions, price protection, discounts, sales incentives or any other
significant matters with regard to these transactions. The Company will comply
with the Staff’s comment by revising the description of our accounting policy
for recognizing revenue from distributors in future filings as
follows: The Company recognizes revenue from distributors when it
ships its products fulfilling an order and title has transferred.
5.
As
a related matter, please clarify why it is appropriate to recognize
revenue from distributors upon
shipment.
Response:
The
Company recognizes revenue upon shipment to distributors and transfer of title,
because the Company believes the four requirements for recognizing revenue have
been met. Specifically, evidence of an arrangement exists in the form of the
order from the distributor, delivery exists because the products have been
shipped to the distributor and title has transferred, there is a fixed sales
price based on the order from the distributor and, collectability is reasonably
assured based on the Company’s collection history with the distributors and the
assessed credit worthiness of the distributors with which the Company does
business. Sales to distributors were less than 0.5% of the Company’s total
revenue in 2008.
6.
With
reference to your disclosures on pages 22, 44 and F-6 with respect to the
collectability of outstanding accounts receivable, including your ability
to estimate the allowances for provider discounts, please tell us why you
believe it is appropriate to recognize revenue when the product has been
dispensed to the patient and the patient’s insurance has been
verified. Specifically, explain why you believe the sales price
is fixed and determinable and that collectability is reasonably assured at
this point in time. Refer to SAB Topic
13.
Mr. Kevin
L. Vaughn
August

Response:
SAB Topic
13 states that revenue generally is realized or realizable and earned when all
of the following are met:
·
Persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists,
·
Delivery
has occurred or services have been
rendered,
·
The
seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable,
and
·
Collection
is reasonably assured.
The
Company believes that at the time the product has been dispensed to the patient
and patient’s insurance has been verified all SAB Topic 13 requirements have
been satisfied. At this point:
·
Evidence
of an arrangement exists in the form of an order and
acceptance;
·
There
is no contingent service or action required by the Company and delivery
has occurred;
·
The
Company believes that the price is determinable. The Company’s sales price
is subject to contractual adjustment; however, this adjustment can be
estimated and determined based on contractual arrangements with insurance
companies or other third party payors and/or can be estimated based on
historical adjustments made by such third party payors (as described in
greater detail below).
·
Collectability
is considered reasonably assured based on contractual arrangements,
historical rates of collection, trends in the historical rates of
collection and current relationships and experience with insurance
companies or other third party
payors.
Provider
discounts result from reimbursements from insurance providers that are less than
amounts claimed, where the amount claimed by the Company exceeds the insurance
provider's usual, customary and reasonable reimbursement rate, amounts subject
to insureds’ deductibles, and when there is a benefit denial.
The
Company believes the use of an estimate of provider discounts applied against
the claims sent to the providers for goods and services performed during the
period is appropriate for the following reasons:
Mr. Kevin
L. Vaughn
August
24, 2009
Page

·
The
estimate is made upon a large pool of homogeneous
items.
·
The
estimate can be made on a timely
basis.
·
There
is sufficient historical information available within the Company to serve
as a basis for making the estimate.
·
There
are no external factors such as product obsolescence which would impact
the estimate.
The Company
is following industry standards. The American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants published the following in their Audit and Accounting Guides for
Health Care Organizations.
Revenue
from Health Care Services
Excerpts
from paragraph 1.26. In general, gross service revenue is recorded in the
accounting records on an accrual basis at the provider's established rates,
regardless of whether the health care organization expects to collect that
amount. Provisions recognizing contractual adjustments and other adjustments are
recorded on an accrual basis and deducted from gross service revenue to
determine net service revenue. For financial reporting purposes, gross revenue
does not include charity care and service revenue is reported net of contractual
and other adjustments in the statement of operations.
Third-Party Payor
Considerations
Excerpts
from paragraph 1.28. Some third-party payors retrospectively determine final
amounts reimbursable for services rendered to their beneficiaries based on
allowable costs. These payors reimburse the health care organization on the
basis of interim payment rates until the retrospective determination of
allowable costs can be made. In most instances, the accumulation and allocation
of allowable costs and other factors result in final settlements different from
the interim payment rates. Final settlements are determined after the close of
the fiscal periods to which they apply and may affect materially the health care
organization's financial position and results of operations. Consequently, a
reasonable estimate of the amount receivable from or payable to these payors
should be made in the same period that the rel

2. We note that you have identified a material weakness in your ability to produce financial
statements free from material misstatements . Further, you state that this material
weakness is the result of the combination of the specified significant deficiencies.
However, it is not clear from your disclosures here what specific control deficiency or

that resulted in adjustment to the financial st atements. Please tell us and revise future
filings to explain in greate r detail the underlying deficien cy or deficiencies in your
internal control over financial reporting. In this regard, expand on the specific material
weakness that you have identified to explain what underlying cont rol deficiency or
deficiencies limits your ability to produce financial statements free from material
misstatements.

6. With reference to your disclosures on pa ges 22, 44 and F-6 with respect to the

allowances for provider discounts, please tell us why you believe it is appropriate to
recognize revenue when the product has been di spensed to the patient and the patient’s

7. We note that you settled a refund claim by Anth em Blue Cross Blue Shield in which you
agreed to pay Anthem $679,930 and to waive the rights to paym ent of outstanding
billings in the amount of $329,664 for the devi ces provided to Anthem’s insureds. We
note that you charged the amount to be repaid to Anthem and wrote off the outstanding
accounts receivable against the allowance for pr ovider discounts. From page 38 we note
that substantially all of th e $1,009,594 relates to net rental re venues. Please tell us why
you recorded the settlement agai nst your provider discounts al lowance rather than as a
reversal of revenue, citin g applicable authoritativ e accounting guidance.
8. We note that you continue to provide your products to Anthem insureds, including
products which may be used to treat insureds with the same medical conditions as those using devices subject to the Anthem claim. We note disclosure here that you recognized
no revenue in the third or fourth quarter of 2008 relating to the device s rented or sold to
insureds of Anthem. Please address the following:
• Clarify for us whether you recognized any re venue relating to devices rented or sold
to insureds of Anthem subsequent to the fourth quarter of 2008.
• Discuss your basis for recogni zing any revenues relating to insureds of Anthem.
• Tell us and revise future filings to di sclose the amount of net revenue deferred
relating to devices sold or re nted to insureds of Anthem.
• Confirm to us that you are continuing to rec ognize charges to cost of sales relating to
devices rented or sold to insureds of Anth em. Please also revise future filings to
clearly disclose this fact a nd discuss its impact in your discussion of your Results of
Operations in MD&A. In future periods , should you reach a resolution with Anthem
that allows you to recognize the deferred revenue, please also ensure your discussion
of your results of operations in MD&A includes clear disclosure of such revenues for
which there is no associated cost of sales.

Dear Mr.

This
letter responds to the comments of the staff of the Securities and Exchange
Commission in its letter dated July 1, 2008 with respect to the Form 10-KSB
Report listed above. The text of the staff’s comments is set forth
below in bold followed in each case by the response.

Analysis or Plan of Operation, page 14
Results of Operations, page

1.
We
note from page 10 that 65% of your revenue
is derived from rental income and 35% of your revenue is derived from net
sales. We further note that the increase in net sales and
rental income from 2006 to 2007 was 215%. In order to enhance
investor’s understanding of your results of operations, please revise your
discussion of your revenue in future filings to separately describe the
impact of changes in rental income and net sales on your total
revenue. In this regard, discuss any trends with respect to the
different revenue streams. For example, if rental income is
increasing while net sales of products are remaining constant, that fact
should be disclosed.
The
Company will follow the Staff’s recommendations to enhance our Management’s
Discussion and Analysis in future filings. This will include discussion of the
impact of changes in rental income and net sales on total revenue and discussion
of any trends with respect to the different revenue streams.

You
state here that management concluded that the Company has a material
weakness in its ability to produce financial statements free from material
misstatements. Please tell us and revise future filings as
necessary to discuss how you have compensated for the material weakness in
order to ensure that the financial statements presented here in the Form
10-KSB are free from material
misstatement.
The
material weakness that we identified and disclosed in our Form 10-KSB was
determined to exist at December 31, 2007. In order to compensate for the
material weakness and to ensure that our December 31, 2007 financial statements
were free from material misstatement, the Company hired 2 additional accounting
staff in the first quarter of 2008. These additional accounting staff
strengthened our internal control over financial reporting by providing our
accounting department with additional resources to prepare and verify financial
information included in our 2007 Form 10-KSB. They also provided better
segregation of duties, which enhanced our policies and procedures over review of
financial information.
Other
remedial steps being taken are indicated in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the
first quarter of 2008.
Consolidated Statements of
Operations, page F-3

We
note your disclosure on page 15 that depreciation on your rental equipment
is not included in cost of goods sold. Please tell us why you
believe it is appropriate to exclude the depreciation on the devices
generating rental income from your cost of goods sold. In this
regard, please also tell us how your current presentation of cost of sales
and rentals and gross profit excluding depreciation complies with SAB
Topic 11B.
Mr. David
Burton
July 16,
2008
Page
3
The
Company has historically excluded depreciation on devices generating rental
income from cost of sales and rentals, since it considers the presentation of a
non-cash expense as a separate line item meaningful, and it believes this amount
has not been significant If depreciation expense on rental
equipment had been included in the calculation of gross margins, the
year-over-year change in gross margins as a percentage of revenue for the year
ended December 31, 2007 versus 2006 would have been 0.6%. The gross margin for
2007 would have been 89.5% versus 90.9% and the gross margin for 2006 would have
been 86% versus 88%. As the Company’s MD&A discussion focuses on significant
year-over-year changes, the inclusion of depreciation expense in the calculation
of gross margins would not have changed the discussion or analysis of the
performance of the Company. In accordance with SAB Topic 11B, to avoid
placing undue emphasis on “cash flow,” depreciation was not
positioned in the income statement in a manner which resulted in reporting a
figure for income before depreciation.
The
Company recognizes, however, that including depreciation expense on rental
equipment in cost of sales and rentals would impact gross margin dollars and
percentages. Accordingly, in future filings, the Company will include
depreciation expense for rental equipment in “cost of sales and rentals” and
other depreciation in “general and administrative expenses” as opposed to
reporting depreciation expense as a separate line item below gross margin on the
Statement of Operations. The presentation of depreciation expense in financial
statements from prior periods included in future filings for comparative
purposes will be revised to also present depreciation expense as described
above.
Consolidated Statements of
Cash Flows, page F-4
4.
We
note that you present a reconciling item for provision for losses in
accounts receivable of $4.8 million for 2007. It appears that
this primarily relates to reserves recorded on gross accounts receivable
relating to negotiated rates with insurance companies and government
agencies and not the actual amount of charges recorded on the statements
of operations for provisions for losses in accounts
receivable. Please tell us why you believe your current
presentation is meaningful to the financial statement
users. Revise future filings to separately present amounts
representing charges recorded to the statements of operations for losses
in accounts receivable.
Mr. David
Burton
July 16,
2008
Page
4
The
Company believes that presenting charges for adjustments related to negotiated
rates with insurance companies and charges for bad debt expense in one line in
our statements of cash flows is meaningful to the financial statement users, as
the combined charges represent the total provision for losses in accounts
receivable. Often the Company has no negotiated rates with
payment providers; however, certain providers discount the charges submitted by
the Company. The Company may not know the amount of the discount, and
has historically provided a combined estimate of possible discounts and bad
debts.
However,
in order to clarify such charges in our statements of cash flows, the Company
will revise future filings to separately present in its statements of cash flows
its estimate of payment provider discounts and estimated bad debts recorded in
the statements of operations for estimated losses in accounts
receivable.

We
note from your statements of stockholders’ equity and from Note 3 that you
have issued warrants to non-employees. Please revise this
footnote in future filings to disclose your accounting policy for stock
issued to non-employees. Refer to SFAS 123R and EITF
96-18.
The
Company will comply with the Staff’s comment by revising the description of our
accounting policy for stock issued to non-employees in future filings as
follows:
“For
stock warrants or options granted to non-employees, the Company measures fair
value of the equity instruments utilizing the Black-Scholes method if that
valuation method results in a more reliable measurement than the fair value of
the consideration or the services received. For stock granted to non-employees,
the Company measures fair value of the shares issued utilizing the market price
of the shares on the date the transaction takes place. The Company amortizes
such costs over the related period of service.”

Revenue recognition, page

6.
We
note that you generate revenue from two distinct revenue streams - sales
of products and rental of products. Please tell us and revise
future filings to separately
disclose your revenue recognition policies for sales of products and
rentals of products, identifying those events that would indicate that
each criterion outlined in SAB Topic 13A has been
met.
Our
policy for revenue recognition for the rental of products is to recognize
revenue ratably over the products’ rental period. Rental revenue is shown net of
the estimated discounts, which will be taken by healthcare payment
providers.
Our
policy for revenue recognition for the sale of products is to recognize revenue
when the product has been shipped and, when applicable, a claim prepared by the
Company has been filed with the patient's insurance provider. Sales revenue is
shown net of the estimated discounts, which will be taken by healthcare payment
providers.
Revenue
is recognized under rental agreements and product shipments only after the
following criteria are met: (i) there exists adequate evidence of the
transactions; (ii) delivery of goods has occurred or services have been
rendered; and (iii) the price is not contingent on future activity and
collectability is reasonably assured.
The
Company will revise its future filings to separately disclose its revenue
recognition policies regarding these revenue streams, as discussed
above.
