Current report

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) actions to impose temporary enrollment moratoria and heightened screening for certain DMEPOS supplier types could limit our ability to expand, pursue acquisitions, or maintain expected operational flexibility and could increase our compliance costs.

Current report

In February 2026, CMS announced the imposition of a 6-month nationwide temporary moratorium on the Medicare enrollment of certain DMEPOS “medical supply company” supplier types, with the stated objective of combating fraud, waste, and abuse. The moratorium generally applies to new enrollments and new practice locations for the specified supplier types, may be extended in additional six-month increments, and CMS indicated it will closely scrutinize enrollment applications during the moratorium period, including through site visits and other verification activities. Although the moratorium is generally directed at newly enrolling suppliers, it could adversely affect our business to the extent we seek to (i) open new locations or otherwise undertake expansion initiatives that require new supplier enrollments or specialty classifications, (ii) acquire, consolidate, or integrate DME operations in a manner that triggers a new enrollment requirement, or (iii) acquire supplier entities that are required to re-enroll as a result of ownership changes. In particular, CMS highlighted that certain non-exempt changes in majority ownership within a defined period may require termination of existing billing privileges and re-enrollment as a new supplier, and CMS stated that the moratorium would prohibit re-enrollment in such circumstances for covered supplier types. More broadly, the announcement reflects an enhanced program integrity posture toward portions of the DMEPOS supplier sector, and similar CMS actions in the future, including extensions, expansions to additional supplier categories, or other enrollment and screening initiatives, could increase administrative burden, delay growth initiatives, heighten audit and investigation risk, and result in enrollment denials or other adverse actions. Any of these developments could materially adversely impact the Company’s ability to open new locations and consummate new acquisitions, and therefore materially adversely impact the Company's revenue, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Political and economic conditions, including significant global or regional developments such as economic and political events, the imposition of tariffs, a prolonged government shutdown, international conflicts (including the ongoing war in Ukraine and the conflict in the Middle East), natural disasters and public health crises that are out of AdaptHealth’s control, could adversely affect its revenue, financial condition and results of operations.

Previous report

AdaptHealth’s business can be affected by a number of factors that are beyond its control, such as general geopolitical, economic and business conditions, including slower economic growth, disruptions in financial markets, economic downturns in the form of either contained or widespread recessionary conditions, inflation, elevated unemployment levels, sluggish or uneven economic recovery, government actions or changes in trade policy in the United States and other countries impacting trade agreements including the imposition of trade restrictions such as tariffs and retaliatory counter measures, government deficit reduction, tax legislation increasing the federal corporate income tax rates, natural and other disasters, public health crises affecting the operations of AdaptHealth or its customers or suppliers, staffing shortages, production slowdowns or stoppages, raw material shortages and disruptions in delivery systems. We continue to monitor the worsening macroeconomic conditions, such as the war in Ukraine, the conflict in the Middle East and global geopolitical tension. Turmoil in the financial markets, including in the capital and credit markets, and any uncertainty over its breadth, depth and duration may put pressure on the global economy and could have a negative effect on AdaptHealth’s business. If conditions in the global economy, U.S. economy or other key vertical or geographic markets are weak or uncertain, AdaptHealth could experience material adverse impacts on its revenue, financial condition and results of operations.

Previous report

The federal government entered a shutdown effective October 1, 2025. Although Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement generally remains available through a shutdown, we may experience delays in payment for services rendered and other effects related to government agencies operating at reduced capacity.

Previous report

On September 2, 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced an investigation under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 into imports of personal protective equipment, medical consumables, and medical equipment including devices in order to examine the impact of these imports on U.S. national security. The statute provides that the Commerce Department report must be completed within 270 days of initiation and that the President must decide whether to take action to remedy any identified threats, including by imposing additional tariffs, within 90 days of receiving the report.

Previous report

The imposition of additional tariffs and implementation of other measures could have a material adverse effect on our business and consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
