Luthercare provides care to residents who meet certain criteria without charge or at amounts less than its established rates. because luthercare does not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as benevolent care, they are not reported as revenues. luthercare maintains records to identify and monitor the level of benevolent care it provides. charges foregone, based on established rates, for services rendered and supplies furnished were approximately $2,457,000 in 2024 and $2,228,000 in 2023. these amounts are not materially different than the difference between the cost of providing services to residents that qualified for benevolent care and the amounts these residents were able to pay for services rendered. in addition, luthercare provided services to children in its childcare facilities and recognized forgone charges of approximately $63,000 in 2024 and $122,000 in 2023. the forgone charges approximate the cost of services provided.
