OPINION

NAJAM, Judge.

STATEMENT OF THE CASE

Munster Community Hospital (“MCH”), Cardiac Care Consultants, P.C. (“CCC”), Shashidhar Divakaruni, M.D., and Jay C.L. Paik, M.D. (collectively “MCH”), appeal from the trial court’s grant of Thomas Bernacke’s Trial Rule 60(B) motion to vacate the trial court’s dismissal of his complaint against MCH. MCH raises a single dispositive issue for our review, namely, whether the trial court abused its discretion when it reinstated Bernacke’s complaint.

We reverse.
