The Guardian was aware that there had been some stock holdings, but was unsure of how many and where they were held. After launching a thorough asset investigation, Cona located numerous accounts that had escheated to the New York State Comptroller.  The firm filed several claims for unclaimed funds and ultimately collected $246,034.30. These assets were used to pay a private pay balance and thereafter, Medicaid became the payor source.
