According to the complaint, on or about Jan. 5, 2012, HCSG entered into a dietary services agreement with Gateway to provide them therapeutic diets, servicewares as well as purchase and prepare non-commercial supplements for patients at their facilities in Euclid, Ohio at $31,763 per month. Gateway was also required to reimburse HCSG for any special function meals it requested. HCSG claims that Gateway, as of Sept. 8, has an outstanding balance of $117,015.29.

HCSG is seeking $126,644.25 plus interest and costs of lawsuit. HCSG is represented by attorneys Steven J. Adams and Craig A. Hirneisen of Stevens & Lee of Reading.
