ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
Subsequent to its earnings release for the fourth quarter of 2014, HealthSouth Corporation (“HealthSouth” or the “Company”) assembled an Investor Reference Book, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8‑K as Exhibit 99.1 (the “Investor Reference Book”). The Investor Reference Book addresses, among other things, an overview of the Company and its industry, a historical perspective of the Company, the Company’s business outlook, the Company’s financial and operational metrics and initiatives, and the Company’s value proposition. The Investor Reference Book is available at
http://investor.healthsouth.com by clicking on an available link.
The Company reiterates as of the date hereof its Adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2015, as previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 24, 2015 and during the Company’s earnings conference call held on February 25, 2015. The Company is revising its previously provided earnings per diluted share guidance for 2015 from a range of $2.24 to $2.29 per share to a range of $2.13 to $2.19 per share to include the impact of the following:
On March 11, 2015, the Company gave notice of, and made an irrevocable commitment for, the redemption of all the outstanding principal amount of its 8.125% Senior Notes due 2020. On March 12, 2015, the Company completed its registered public offering of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes due 2023 at a public offering price of 100.00% of the principal amount and will use the proceeds from this offering, along with cash on hand, to complete the redemption of the 8.125% Senior Notes due 2020 in April 2015. As a result of these transactions, the Company expects to record an approximate $21 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, loss on early extinguishment of debt in the second quarter of 2015. This loss will be offset in part by interest savings.
On March 22, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to settle the lawsuit filed on August 16, 2004 by General Medicine and captioned General Medicine, P.C. v. HealthSouth Corp. Although the specific terms of this settlement agreement are confidential, HealthSouth and General Medicine agreed to dismiss with prejudice the lawsuit pending in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Alabama and to release all claims between the parties. In exchange for General Medicine’s release, HealthSouth agreed to pay an amount of cash that is not material to the Company.
Earnings per share are presented using income from continuing operations attributable to HealthSouth.
The Company uses “same-store” comparisons to explain the changes in certain performance metrics and line items within its financial statements. Same-store comparisons are calculated based on hospitals open throughout both the full current periods and throughout the full prior periods presented. These comparisons include the financial results of market consolidation transactions in existing markets, as it is difficult to determine, with precision, the incremental impact of these transactions on the Company’s results of operations.
The information contained herein is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K, “Regulation FD Disclosure.” This information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial data contained in the Investor Reference Book attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 includes non-GAAP financial measures, including the Company’s leverage ratio and Adjusted EBITDA. The leverage ratio referenced therein is defined as the ratio of consolidated total debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four quarters. The Company believes its leverage ratio and Adjusted EBITDA are measures of its ability to service its debt and its ability to make capital expenditures. Additionally, the leverage ratio is a standard measurement used by investors to gauge the creditworthiness of an institution. The Company’s credit agreement also includes a maximum leverage ratio financial covenant which allows the Company to deduct up to $75 million of cash on hand from consolidated total debt. The Company reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net income in the Investor Reference Book attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and to net cash provided by operating activities in the Investor Reference Book attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and below.
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis as a liquidity measure. The Company believes this financial measure on a consolidated basis is important in analyzing its liquidity because it is the key component of certain material covenants contained within the Company’s credit agreement, which is discussed in more detail in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” and Note 8, Long-term Debt, to the consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year





ended December 31, 2014 (the “2014 Form 10‑K”). These covenants are material terms of the credit agreement. Noncompliance with these financial covenants under the credit agreement—its interest coverage ratio and its leverage ratio—could result in the Company’s lenders requiring the Company to immediately repay all amounts borrowed. If the Company anticipated a potential covenant violation, it would seek relief from its lenders, which would have some cost to the Company, and such relief might not be on terms favorable to those in the Company’s existing credit agreement. In addition, if the Company cannot satisfy these financial covenants, it would be prohibited under the credit agreement from engaging in certain activities, such as incurring additional indebtedness, paying common stock dividends, making certain payments, and acquiring and disposing of assets. Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA is critical to the Company’s assessment of its liquidity.
In general terms, the credit agreement definition of Adjusted EBITDA, therein referred to as “Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA,” allows the Company to add back to consolidated net income interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization and then add back to consolidated net income (1) all unusual or nonrecurring items reducing consolidated net income (of which only up to $10 million in a year may be cash expenditures), (2) costs and expenses related to refinancing transactions (in years prior to 2012), (3) any losses from discontinued operations and closed locations, (4) costs and expenses, including legal fees and expert witness fees, incurred with respect to litigation associated with stockholder derivative litigation, including the matters related to Ernst & Young LLP and Richard Scrushy discussed in Note 18, Contingencies and Other Commitments, to the consolidated financial statements accompanying the 2014 Form 10‑K, and (5) share-based compensation expense. The Company also subtracts from consolidated net income all unusual or nonrecurring items to the extent they increase consolidated net income.
Under the credit agreement, the Adjusted EBITDA calculation does not include net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and includes (1) gain or loss on disposal of assets, (2) professional fees unrelated to the stockholder derivative litigation, and (3) unusual or nonrecurring cash expenditures in excess of $10 million. These items may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing performance, so the Adjusted EBITDA calculation presented here includes adjustments for them.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income or cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Revenues and expenses are measured in accordance with the policies and procedures described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements accompanying the 2014 Form 10‑K.
The Company also uses adjusted free cash flow as an analytical indicator to assess its performance. Management believes the presentation of adjusted free cash flow provides investors an efficient means by which they can evaluate the Company’s capacity to reduce debt, pursue development activities, and return capital to its common stockholders. The calculation of adjusted free cash flow and a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to adjusted free cash flow are included in the Investor Reference Book attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. This measure is not a defined measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities. The Company’s definition of adjusted free cash flow is limited and does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary spending. Because this measure is not determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. See the consolidated statements of cash flows included in the 2014 Form 10-K for the GAAP measures of cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities.

CMS plans to use this data to potentially support future rule making in this area. • CMS made revisions to the list of codes it uses to presumptively test compliance with the 60% Rule. – The rule eliminates an additional 10 post-amputation ICD-9-CM codes used for presumptive testing – Code changes made in FY 2014 and 2015 will become effective for compliance review periods beginning on or after October 1, 2015 • ICD-10-CM cross walk from ICD-9-CM (effective no earlier than October 1, 2015) • CMS finalized: • Changes to IRF patient assessment instrument (“PAI”) • Two new quality measures for FY 2017: Facility-Wide Inpatient Hospital- Onset Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia Outcome Measure and Facility-Wide Inpatient Hospital-Onset Clostridium difficile Infection Outcome Measure • To begin validation audits to ensure completeness and accuracy of submitted quality data. 60 Percent Rule – Update to Presumptive Methodology Code List New Quality Reporting Update to Payment Rates Pricing: • Net pricing impact to HealthSouth expected to be approx. +2.3% for FY 2015 before sequestration(12) • Because of its efficient cost structure, HealthSouth receives very few outlier payments despite higher acuity patients (see page 33). Quality: • HealthSouth will supplement existing quality reporting systems to meet the new requirements. Coding: • Post-amputation cases represent approx. 0.5% of HealthSouth’s Medicare discharges HealthSouth Observations


 
35 IMPACT Act of 2014 - Enacted October 6, 2014 Company observations and considerations with respect to the IMPACT Act: ▪ It was developed on a bi-partisan basis by the House Ways and Means and Senate Finance Committees and incorporated feedback from healthcare providers and provider organizations that responded to the Committees’ solicitation of post-acute payment reform ideas and proposals. ▪ It directs the United States Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), in consultation with healthcare stakeholders, to implement standardized data collection processes for post-acute quality and outcome measures. ▪ Although the IMPACT Act does not specifically call for the development of a new post-acute payment system, the Company believes this act will lay the foundation for possible future post-acute payment policies that would be based on patients’ medical conditions and other clinical factors rather than the setting where the care is provided. ▪ It will create additional data reporting requirements for the Company’s hospitals(29) and home health agencies. The precise details of these new reporting requirements, including timing and content, will be developed and implemented by the United States Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services through the regulatory process that the Company expects will take place over the next several years. ▪ While the Company cannot quantify the potential financial effect of the IMPACT Act on HealthSouth, the Company believes any post-acute payment system that is data driven and focuses on the needs and underlying medical conditions of post-acute patients will be positive for providers who offer high-quality, cost- effective care. HealthSouth believes it is doing just that and expects this act will be positive for the Company. ▪ However, it will likely take years for the related quality measures to be established, quality data to be gathered, standardized patient assessment data to be assembled and disseminated, and potential payment policies to be developed, tested and promulgated. As the nation’s largest owner and operator of inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, HealthSouth looks forward to working with HHS, the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission and other healthcare stakeholders on these initiatives.

36 Different Levels of Services Rehab Hospital Nursing Home Average length of stay(30) = 12.9 days Covered days per admission(30) = 27.6 days Discharge to community(30) = 75.9% Discharge to community(30) = 37.5% Requirements: Requirements: Rehab hospitals must also satisfy regulatory/policy requirements for hospitals, including Medicare hospital conditions of participation. No similar requirement; Nursing homes are regulated as nursing homes only All patients must be admitted by a rehab physician. No similar requirement Rehab physicians must re-confirm each admission w/n 24 hours. No similar requirement All patients, regardless of diagnoses/condition, must demonstrate need and receive at least three hours of daily intensive therapy. No similar requirement All patients must see a rehabilitation physician “in person” at least three times weekly. No similar requirement; some SNF patients may go a week or longer without seeing a physician, and often a non-rehabilitation physician. Rehab hospitals required to provide 24 hour, 7 days per week nursing care; many nurses are RNs and rehab nurses. No similar requirement Rehab hospitals are required to use a coordinated interdisciplinary team approach led by a rehab physician; includes a rehab nurse, a case manager, and a licensed therapist from each therapy discipline who must meet weekly to evaluate/discuss each patient’s case. No similar requirement; Nursing homes are not required to provide care on a interdisciplinary basis and are not required to hold regular meetings for each patient. Rehab hospitals are required to follow stringent admission/coverage policies and must carefully document justification for each admission; further restricted in number/type of patients (60% Rule) Nursing homes have comparatively few policies governing the number or types of patients they treat. Refer to pages 103-107 for end notes.


 
37 CMS: Inpatient Rehabilitation vs. Skilled Nursing “… MedPAC’s analysis of recent quality measure data related to rehospitalizations suggests that quality of care within SNFs has not been improving … Since 2000, one outcome measure (the risk- adjusted rate of rehospitalization for any of five care-sensitive conditions) exhibited almost no change … … shifting IRF patients toward SNF care does not necessarily improve the quality of care provided to the beneficiaries. A March 2005 report in the Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation found that 81.1 percent of IRF patients were discharged to home, compared to 45.5 percent of SNF residents. Additionally, IRF patients appeared to have shorter lengths of stay, averaging approximately a 13-day stay, compared to the average 36-day stay for a SNF resident. Finally, when patients discharged from each setting were reviewed 24 weeks after discharge, IRF patients had consistently better outcomes and displayed a faster rate of recovery.” “Given these findings, we do not agree with those commenters who would assume that shifting patients from the IRF setting to a SNF setting is necessarily more beneficial to the patient or the Medicare Trust Fund.” Source: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-08-08/pdf/2011-19544.pdf

Deficit Reduction • The Budget Control Act of 2011 includes a reduction of 2% (known as "Sequestration") to Medicare payments for all providers that began on April 1, 2013. (as modified by H.R. 8). The Protecting Access to Medicare Act modified these cuts in FY 2024 by requiring a 4% reduction to Medicare payments during the first half of FY 2024 and no cuts (0%) to Medicare payments during the second half of FY 2024. 8. The IMPACT ACT • The IMPACT ACT of 2014 requires standardized data collection on quality and outcome measures. CMS and the National Quality Forum are currently developing quality measures for IRFs, SNFs, HHA, and LTCH relating to patients with new or worsened pressure ulcers (outcome); patients receiving functional assessments and care plans addressing function; patient falls major injury; and 30-day all-cause unplanned readmission rates (see page 35).

(2) Beginning in Q1 2015, HealthSouth's legacy 25 home health agencies will be included in the home health and hospice segment. The 2014 results for these agencies will be recast and reported in the 2014 results for the home health and hospice segment. (3) Under this program, Joint Commission accredited organizations, like our hospitals, may seek certification for chronic diseases or conditions such as brain injury or stroke rehabilitation by complying with Joint Commission standards, effectively using evidence-based clinical practice guidelines to manage and optimize patient care, and using an organized approach to performance measurement and evaluation of clinical outcomes. Obtaining such certifications demonstrates our commitment to excellence in providing disease-specific care.

All data provided was filtered and compiled from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Fiscal Year 2015 IRF Final Rule rate setting file found at http://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/InpatientRehabFacPPS/Data-Files.html. The data presented was developed entirely by CMS and is based on its definitions which are different in form and substance from the criteria HealthSouth uses for external reporting purposes. Because CMS does not provide its detailed methodology, HealthSouth is not able to reconstruct the CMS projections or the calculation. b.The CMS file contains data for each of the 1,142 inpatient rehabilitation facilities used to estimate the policy updates for the FY 2015 IRF-PPS Final Rule. Most of the data represents historical information from the CMS fiscal year 2013 period and may or may not reflect the same HealthSouth hospitals in operation today. The data presented was separated into three categories: Freestanding, Units, and HealthSouth. HealthSouth is a subset of Freestanding and the Total. (9) The 103 for HLS excludes HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Altamonte Springs, FL (opened October 2014), HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Newnan, GA (opened December 2014), HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Middletown, DE (opened December 2014) and James H. & Cecile C. Quillen Rehabilitation Hospital in Johnson City, TN (joint venture effective November 2014; included in 896 hospital units). (10) In 2014, HealthSouth averaged 1,269 total Medicare and non-Medicare discharges per hospital in its then 106 consolidated hospitals. (11) Case Mix Index (CMI) from the rate-setting file presented above is adjusted for short-stay transfer cases. HealthSouth’s unadjusted CMI for 2013 was 1.34 versus 1.29 for the industry as measured by UDSMR, a data gathering and analysis organization for the rehabilitation industry; represents ~70% of the industry, including HealthSouth sites. (12) The Budget Control Act of 2011 included a reduction of up to 2% to Medicare payments for all providers that began on April 1, 2013 (as modified by H.R. 8). The reduction was made from whatever level of payment would otherwise have been provided under Medicare law and regulation. (13) Includes consolidated HealthSouth inpatient rehabilitation hospitals classified as same store during that time period. That number was 101 for the year ended December 31, 2014. (14) Data provided by UDSMR, a data gathering and analysis organization for the rehabilitation industry; represents ~70% of industry, including HealthSouth sites classified as same store prior to 2011.


 
104 End Notes, con't. (15) HealthSouth acquired an additional 30% equity interest in Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital in Worcester, MA from its joint venture partner. This transaction increased HealthSouth's ownership interest from 50% to 80% and resulted in a change in accounting for the hospital from equity method to a consolidated entity effective June 1, 2014.

105 End Notes, con't.

The Company recorded approx. $249 million as debt and approx. $71 million as equity.

The Company has the right to redeem the convertible notes before December 1, 2018 if the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock is at least 120% ($46.58) of the conversion price of the convertible notes for a specified period. On or after December 1, 2018, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or any part of the convertible notes.
