So far in 2016 there have been 10 resolution agreements announced. One more and this year will equal the number of agreements in all of 2015 & 2014!
The latest two also include the largest one announced yet - $5.5m with Advocate Health.

The total amount for those 10 announcements so far in 2016 = $20,314,800
