b. How Staffed
                              RESPONSE: Accounting support comes from HMS’ Accounting Department;
                              located in our Alpharetta offices. Management Services are provided by a
                              licensed manager and administrators who provide support to the manager.  Each
                              manager receives support from the administrator “pool”, although each
                              Association is assigned a primary administrator.
