Syllabus

Arbitration; arbitration agreement; motion to compel; R.C. 2711.01; R.C. 2711.23; medical claims; skilled-nursing facilities; statutory interpretation. Judgment affirmed. The singular arbitration provision contained within the parties' 16 page admission's agreement is unenforceable. Specifically, the arbitration provision does not comply with the mandatory requirements of R.C. 2711.23 that govern arbitration agreements between residents and skilled-nursing facilities relating to medical claims. Because the subject arbitration provision does not comply with R.C. 2711.23, the trial court did not err in denying appellants' motion to compel arbitration.
