Current report

legislation adopted on July 4, 2025 (the One Big Beautiful Bill Act), attaches work and community service requirements to eligibility for Medicaid benefits that will have the effect of limiting Medicaid enrollment and expenditure. That legislation also places limits on provider fees used to increase federal Medicaid funding to states. The legislation prohibits states not previously having expanded Medicaid eligibility to 138% of federal poverty level from increasing the rate of current provider fees which fund certain state supplemental payments or increasing the base of the fee to a class or items of services that the fee did not previously cover. That current provider fee threshold will remain at 6%. For states having expanded Medicaid eligibility under the legislation, the provider fee threshold will be reduced by 0.5% annually between federal fiscal years 2028 and 2032 with the resulting threshold ultimately becoming 3.5%. The legislation also eliminates certain insurance exchange premium tax credits beyond 2025 and exchange enrollment is expected to be adversely impacted. All of these factors, which could have a material unfavorable impact on our results of operations, may be expected to reduce our revenue and likely increase the level of uncompensated care provided by our facilities;

Current report

Legislation adopted on July 4, 2025 attaches work and community service requirements to eligibility for Medicaid benefits that will have the effect of limiting Medicaid enrollment and expenditures and the legislation also places limits on provider taxes used to increase federal Medicaid funding to states. In addition, insurance exchange subsidies are scheduled to expire later this year which could unfavorably impact insurance exchange enrollment. As these provisions become effective over the next several years, they may be expected to reduce our revenues and likely increase the level of uncompensated care provided by our facilities. Please see Sources of Revenue below for additional disclosure related to Medicaid supplemental payment programs in various states in which we operate.

Current report

In July, 2025, CMS issued its OPPS proposed rule for 2026. The hospital market basket increase is 3.2% and the productivity adjustment reduction is 0.8% for a net market basket increase of 2.4%. When other statutorily required adjustments (including a 1.95% reduction for the 340B remedy discussed below) and hospital patient service mix are considered, we estimate that our overall Medicare OPPS update for 2026 will aggregate to a net increase of 0.1%.

Current report

CMS is proposing to shorten the 340B Remedy recoupment transition from 16 years to 5 years. A 2023 CMS final rule had implemented a negative OPPS recoupment adjustment of 0.5 percent for approximately 16 years to offset $7.8 billion paid to hospitals for non-drug OPPS payments between 2018 and 2022 – following the US Supreme Court decision overturning the Trump Administration’s 340B reduction policy. CMS now proposes to increase the annual offset of 0.5 percent to 2 percent effective CY 2026 and to remain in effect until the estimated payment reduction reaches $7.8 billion, which CMS estimates will occur in CY 2031.

Previous wording

as discussed below in Sources of Revenue, we receive revenues from various state and county-based programs, including Medicaid in all the states in which we operate. We receive annual Medicaid revenues of approximately $100 million, or greater, from each of California, Nevada, Texas, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Washington, D.C., Kentucky, Massachusetts, Florida, Virginia, and Mississippi. Most of these programs are approved on a year-to-year basis and there is no assurance that these revenues will continue at their current rates or at all. The prior President Trump administration had attempted to limit Medicaid expenditures by, for example, attaching work requirements to eligibility for Medicaid waiver benefits. The second Trump administration is likely to explore similar solutions to limit Medicaid enrollment or expenditure. The Trump administration has already taken steps to undo Biden-era executive orders and to freeze funding for federal programs. While the administration’s initial freeze has since been rescinded, the administration is likely to make other attempts to reduce federal program expenditures and can generally be expected to oppose increases in ACA and Medicaid enrollment. We also receive Medicaid DSH payments in certain states including, most significantly, Texas. We are therefore particularly sensitive to potential reductions in Medicaid and other state-based revenue programs as well as regulatory, economic, environmental and competitive changes in those states;

Current wording

as discussed below in Sources of Revenue, we receive revenues from various state and county-based programs, including Medicaid in all the states in which we operate. We receive annual Medicaid revenues of approximately $100 million, or greater, from each of California, Texas, Nevada, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Washington, D.C., Kentucky, Tennessee, Massachusetts, Virginia, Mississippi and Florida.

We are therefore particularly sensitive to potential reductions in Medicaid and other state-based revenue programs as well as regulatory, economic, environmental and competitive changes in those states;

Previous wording

an increasing number of legislative initiatives have been passed into law that may result in major changes in the health care delivery system on a national or state level. For example, Congress has reduced to $0 the penalty for failing to maintain health coverage that was part of the original Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health and Education Reconciliation Act (collectively, the "Legislation") as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The Biden administration had issued executive orders implementing a special enrollment period permitting individuals to enroll in health plans outside of the annual open enrollment period and reexamining policies that may undermine the Legislation or the Medicaid program. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was passed on August 16, 2022, which among other things, allows for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") to negotiate prices for certain single-source drugs reimbursed under Medicare Part B and Part D. The American Rescue Plan Act’s expansion of subsidies to purchase coverage through a Legislation exchange, which the IRA continued through 2025, has increased exchange enrollment. However, the Trump administration has already taken steps to undo certain Biden-era executive orders, including those intended to lower drug costs for beneficiaries, and to freeze funding for federal programs. While the administration’s initial freeze has since been rescinded, the administration is likely to make other attempts to reduce federal program expenditures and can generally be expected to oppose increases in ACA and Medicaid enrollment. If the subsidies are not extended beyond 2025, exchange enrollment may be adversely impacted;

Current wording

there are additional legislative changes that are likely to result in major changes in the health care delivery system on a national or state level. For example, Congress has reduced to $0 the penalty for failing to maintain health coverage that was part of the original Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health and Education Reconciliation Act (collectively, the “ACA") as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The Biden administration had issued executive orders implementing a special enrollment period permitting individuals to enroll in health plans outside of the annual open enrollment period and reexamining policies that may undermine the ACA or the Medicaid program. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was passed on August 16, 2022, which among other things, allows for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") to negotiate prices for certain single-source drugs reimbursed under Medicare Part B and Part D. The American Rescue Plan Act’s expansion of subsidies to purchase coverage through an ACA exchange, which the IRA continued through 2025, has increased exchange enrollment. However, the Trump administration has already taken steps to undo these Biden-era initiatives, including adopting legislation eliminating certain exchange premium tax credits;

there have been numerous political and legal efforts to expand, repeal, replace or modify the Legislation, since its enactment, some of which have been successful, in part, in modifying the Legislation, as well as court challenges to the constitutionality of the Legislation. The U.S. Supreme Court held in California v. Texas that the plaintiffs lacked standing to challenge the Legislation’s requirement to obtain minimum essential health insurance coverage, or the individual mandate. The Court dismissed the case without specifically ruling on the constitutionality of the Legislation. As a result, the Legislation will continue to remain law, in its entirety, likely for the foreseeable future. On September 7, 2022, the Legislation faced its most recent challenge when a Texas Federal District Court judge, in the case of Braidwood Management v. Becerra, ruled that a requirement that certain health plans cover services without cost sharing violates the Appointments Clause of the U.S. Constitution and that the coverage of certain HIV prevention medication violates the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. The decision was ultimately appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court and a decision remains pending. The outcome and impacts of this litigation cannot be predicted. Any future efforts to challenge, replace or replace the Legislation or expand or substantially amend its provision is unknown. See below in Sources of Revenues and Health Care Reformfor additional disclosure;

Proceedings. We have reached an agreement in principle with respect to the Pavilion matter which is subject to the execution of a final settlement agreement and court approval of that agreement. Although the terms of the settlement are confidential, we expect that the settlement, if finalized and approved by the Court, will be covered by our commercial excess insurance and our existing reserves for that matter. We can make no assurances regarding the ultimate financial exposure, timing, substance or outcome of the Pavilion and Cumberland matters (which related to occurrences in the 2020 policy year), or the amount of damages that may be ultimately held recoverable after post-judgment proceedings and appeals, should the above-mentioned agreement in principle related to the Pavilion matter not be finalized. As of March 31, 2025, without reduction for any potential amounts related to the Pavilion and Cumberland matters, the Company and its subsidiaries have aggregate insurance coverage of approximately $221 million remaining under commercial policies for matters applicable to the 2020 policy year (in excess of the applicable self-insured retention amounts of $10 million per single occurrence/$25 million for multi-plaintiff matters for professional liability claims and $3 million per occurrence for general liability claims). In the event the resolution of the Pavilion and/or Cumberland matters exhausts all or a significant portion of the remaining commercial insurance coverage available to the Company and its subsidiaries related to other matters that occurred in 2020, or the Pavilion and Cumberland matters cause the posting of large bonds or other collateral during the appeal processes, our future results of operations and capital resources would be materially adversely impacted;
