Thank you, Rick, and good morning. As a reminder, before we review our second quarter financial performance, we have changed the operating reportable segments of the company to Infusion Services and PBM services. As a result of the sale of the company's Home Health business on March 31, 2014, the company's financial statements concerning Home Health are presented as discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of income for the 3 months ended June 30, 2013, and 2014 and are excluded from the results from continuing operations of the business. In addition to new segment reporting, the financial statements reflect continuing versus discontinued operations classification for all periods presented. In reviewing our financial performance, we will focus primarily on the continuing operations. We also report adjusted earnings per diluted share, which excludes the same elements in calculating adjusted EBITDA and also takes into account the impact of acquisition-related intangible amortization, as noted in our press release. With that, for the second quarter of 2014, we reported revenue from continuing operations of $247.1 million, compared to $172.3 million in the prior year period, an increase of $74.8 million or 43.4%. The Infusion Services segment revenue increased 47.8% year-over-year, primarily driven by the addition of CarePoint partners, as well as double-digit organic growth. Revenue in the PBM Services segment was slightly up at $16.6 million versus $16.3 million in the prior year period. Gross profit for continuing operations was $65.4 million compared to $57.8 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of $7.6 million or 13.1%. Gross profit as percentage of revenue decreased to 26.4% from 33.5% in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in gross profit dollars was due to growth in revenue in the Infusion business, offset by decrease in gross profit in the PBM Services segment. The decrease in consolidated gross profit margin percentage was driven primarily by the decline in the higher margin PBM Services segment. SG&A for the second quarter was $57.2 million, a $6.9 million increase over the prior year. SG&A for the second quarter as percentage of total revenue was 23.2%, compared to 29.2% in the prior year period. The increase in SG&A expenses were primarily due to the inclusion of CarePoint Partners and certain costs associated with supporting the growth in volume from our businesses, such as additional investment in our reimbursement resources to improve cash collection. Interest expense for the second quarter of 2014 increased to $9.1 million, compared to $6.5 million in the prior year period. The company reported a loss from continuing operations net of income taxes of $18.6 million for the quarter, compared to a net loss of $9.2 million in the prior year. Net loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, was $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to income of $400,000 in the second quarter of 2013. Consolidated net loss for the quarter was $19.8 million or $0.29 per diluted -- per basic and diluted share, compared to consolidated net loss of $8.9 million or $0.14 per basic and diluted share for the same period in 2013. Bioscrip reported adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $11 million, compared to $10.8 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA from the Infusion Services segment increased by $2.2 million or 15.7%, as compared to the prior year, offset by continued weakness in the noncore PBM Services segment, which delivered $3.1 million less in adjusted EBITDA than the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA also included a $4.6 million favorable adjustment to the valuation of contingent considerations, offset by a $5.5 million increase in bad debt and contractual reserve provision. Adjusted EBITDA was further impacted by $500,000 of increased investment in reimbursement resources in the form of overtime temporary labor and third party professional fees. Turning to cash flows for the 3 months ended June 30, 2014, the company used $2.4 million in net cash from continuing operating activity, compared to $8.7 million of net cash used from operating -- continuing operating activities during the 3 months ended June 30, 2013, a $6.3 million improvement year-over-year. Sequentially, net cash from continuing operating activities improved by $22 million from the first quarter of 2014. The improved sequential performance reflects the focus and efforts on improved intake processes, more rapid documentation of billing and increased resources on collection. While Infusion revenue increased 4% sequentially from Q1 to Q2 2014, cash collected for the Infusion Services segment has increased by 14% during the same period. Additionally, DSOs improved by approximately 4 days. Although we continue to make progress on cash collections, much of the initial improvements are reflected in the collection of our younger receivables, indicating an improvement in our front-end processes. Efforts remain ongoing for collecting our older receivables and we continue to invest in resources to maintain and improve the momentum of those initiatives in the second half of the year. As of June 30, 2014, the company's cash balance was $1.5 million and the $75 million revolving credit facility remains undrawn. Turning to the outlook, as indicated in our release, we believe our 2014 revenue is trending towards the high end of our range of $940 million to $980 million. And 2014 adjusted EBITDA remains in the range of $55 million to $60 million. This outlook assumes continued stability in our PBM Services segment from an adjusted EBITDA perspective, consistent with the performance in the first half of the year, robust Infusion revenue growth driven by the full-year impact of the acquisition and continued double-digit organic revenue growth. Infusion Services segment adjusted EBITDA margin percentage improved throughout the year, but this may be impacted by mix. Seasonality in the Infusion Services segment, whereby the fourth quarter typically generates the highest adjusted EBITDA of the year and the first quarter typically generates the lowest adjusted EBITDA of the year. Momentum to collect order receivables impacted by the integration of the acquisition continues in the second half of the year. Although these efforts are ongoing, timing may be uncertain. And lastly, corporate overhead is projected to continue to be less than $8 million per quarter. With that, I'll turn the call back over to Rick.
