Paul B. Kusserow, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, We are extremely pleased with our results in the fourth quarter and 2015 overall, as we continued to demonstrate strong organic revenue and earnings growth. In 2015, we generated $112 million in EBITDA, $108 million in cash flow from operations, strengthened our balance sheet and closed the acquisition of Infinity HomeCare in Florida. Since the end of the year, we also announced our acquisition of Associated Home Care, our first acquisition in the personal care space.
In 2016, we will continue to invest in quality and complete our transition to HomeCare HomeBase. We believe both will be key differentiators for Amedisys as our industry continues to evolve toward outcomes-based reimbursement and away from a fee-for-service model. Finally, we will continue with a disciplined capital allocation strategy, pursuing accretive acquisitions, such as our recently announced Associated Homecare Deal, and executing under our share repurchase program where appropriate. Congratulations to our employees for delivering these outstanding results and welcome to our new team members from Infinity and Associated.
We urge caution in considering the current trends disclosed in this press release. The home health and hospice industry is highly competitive and subject to intensive regulations, and trends are subject to numerous factors, risks, and uncertainties, some of which are referenced in the cautionary language below and others that are described more fully in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and current reports on Form 8-K which can be found on the SECs internet website, http://www.sec.gov, and our internet website, http://www.amedisys.com. We disclaim any obligations to update disclosed information on trends.

In accordance with SEC rules, we have provided herein a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable measures under GAAP.

Operational Excellence: HCHB Implementation Timeline We have accelerated our HCHB implementation timeline with a target Go-Live date of November 1, 2016, seven months ahead of our original plan. We are currently at 142 Installs Care Centers Why Accelerate? AMS2 specifications not designed for ongoing operation; rate of regulatory change increases risk of operating on older system Desire to move to cheaper POC devices sooner (POC device cost ~88% lower) Acceleration of operational efficiencies and impact on business Improved documentation, imbedded clinical pathways and OASIS validations will all have a positive impact on quality Implementation experience thus far has shown very limited operational disruption March 2016: All Hospice Centers on HCHB * *Includes 15 Infinity Care Centers

Home Health Care Center Conversion to HCHB Home Health implementation data shows that once a center is live on HCHB, on average they experience a total disruption of $8,600 split between revenue per episode impact and increases in overtime and admin. Note: We are not seeing disruption within our Hospice care centers Center Performance During month 1 of implementation, care centers see an increase in OT and Admin costs OT & Admin cost increase as care center staff adopts to new system Episodes in progress during HCHB rollout complete at a lower revenue per episode Decrease caused by missed visits as clinicians learn new system OT and admin costs rebound back to pre HCHB levels as care center staff becomes more efficient on the new system One month after revenue per episode decreases impact care centers, they rebound to pre HCHB levels Cases enroll and “recertify” in HCHB All clinical operations on HCHB All back office operations on HCHB Data available to drive performance Centers supporting 2 systems System support HCHB only Reports become meaningful Total average disruption per care center: ~$8,600 Month 1 Month 2 Month 3 Month 4 Components of Disruption Homecare Avg.
