b Administrative modifications could be made by simple facilities, moderately complex facilities, or Title V facilities, but there is no obvious way to assign
these costs to particular categories. These costs could be incurred by any facility in addition to the costs specific to the category they are in. The
administrative mods do not get counted in the total all respondents since they are already counted elsewhere.
