Recent Activities
Current report
Acquisitions. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we expanded our operations with the addition of six senior living communities. A subsidiary of the Company entered into a separate operations transfer agreement with the prior operator of each acquired operation as part of each transaction.
Current report
Effective May 13, 2026, CMS announced a six-month, nationwide moratorium on new Medicare enrollment applications for hospice providers and home health agencies (“HHA”); this applies to all initial Medicare enrollment applications and to certain changes in majority ownership of existing enrolled providers. The moratorium does not affect currently enrolled providers. This moratorium was announced in coordination with the Anti-Fraud Task Force focusing on initiatives to combat fraud, waste, and abuse. Also, in connection with such moratorium, CMS announced certain enforcement activity against hospices and HHAs (e.g., suspension of Medicare payments to certain providers). Notably, CMS announced heightened scrutiny of newly enrolled providers in Arizona, California, Georgia, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Texas. Following CMS’s announcement of this moratorium, certain states have followed suit: Ohio announced a Medicaid enrollment moratorium on May 14, 2026, through November 14, 2026; Arkansas announced it will no longer accept applications for hospices effective May 13, 2026; and, Nevada announced a temporary pause on the issuance of new state licenses for hospices and HHAs on June 5, 2026. All of these reflect alignment with the federal enrollment moratorium.
Current report
On July 1, 2026, CMS published the CY 2027 Home Health Prospective Payment System proposed rule (“HHA Payment Proposed Rule”). The HHA Payment Proposed Rule includes several changes that, if finalized, could materially impact our home health offerings. Under the HHA Payment Proposed Rule, CMS proposes increasing the aggregate net payments to home health agencies by 2.4%, resulting in an aggregate estimated increase across all home health providers of $420 million in payments compared to CY 2026. The payment update percentage includes a payment increase of 2.1% or $370 million, and a 0.3% update to the fixed dollar loss ratio for outlier payments, representing a $50 million increase in funding.
Current report
The HHA Payment Proposed Rule also proposes several specific Home Health Quality Reporting Program (“QRP”) proposals. First, CMS proposed to shorten the OASIS assessment data submission and correction deadline to the fifteenth day of the second month after the end of the calendar quarter, beginning with the CY 2027 QRP. Second, CMS proposed aligning the OASIS APU reporting period, which currently begins each July 1 and ends the following June 30, with the calendar year. Third, CMS proposed regulatory changes to transition the QRP noncompliance reconsideration process from letter-based communications to a digital process using communications through CMS’s data submission system to expedite this process
Current report
The HHA Payment Proposed Rule also set forth significant changes to Medicare provider and supplier enrollment processes. If adopted, these provisions would apply to any Medicare provider or supplier, consistent with HHS and CMS’s stated priorities of combatting fraud, waste, and abuse. First, CMS proposed to expand the false-or-misleading information basis for denying or revoking enrollment in Medicare so that this lower standard for denial or revocation of enrollment shall be applicable to any and all of CMS’s and Medicare’s provider-enrollment-related forms or documentation. Second, CMS proposed new and expanded grounds for denying enrollment in Medicare, including but not limited to, an applicant’s failure to abide by certain change in majority ownership rules for hospices and HHAs, if that applicant’s licensure or participation ins a state or federal program for the payment of healthcare services had been suspended or revoked. Third, CMS proposed to make all Medicare enrollment revocations retroactive to the date the event or circumstance giving rise to revocation began, rather than applying only prospectively and commencing 30 days after CMS or its contractor mails notice of revocation to the provider.
Current report
Fourth, the HHA Payment Proposed Rule expands the reapplication-bar authority so that CMS may prohibit a prospective provider or supplier from enrolling in Medicare for up to ten years if its prior application is denied for certain reasons defined by regulation, such as noncompliance with enrollment requirements, misconduct, or unpaid claims or debt owed to Medicare. The proposed rule, if adopted, would significantly expand the grounds on which providers or suppliers are barred from re-applying for enrollment in Medicare after a prior enrollment denial, which currently are limited to denials based on false or misleading information. Finally, a series of other enrollment-related changes were proposed including a new general signage requirement, documentation requirements, and clarification of procedures for appeals and rebuttals concerning CMS’s enrollment decisions.

The Hospice Payment Proposed Rule seeks to make a technical change extending hospice’s ability to use telehealth to conduct encounters that otherwise have to be conducted face-to-face through December 31, 2027, to align with the CAA 2026. Further, CMS is proposing to make the hospice election statement addendum, which was originally only provided to hospice patients upon request, mandatory for all hospice elections. In publishing the 2027 Hospice Payment Proposed Rule, CMS explained that this requirement will provide beneficiaries additional transparency regarding the items, services, and drugs not covered under Medicare’s hospice benefits, so that those beneficiaries can make appropriate treatment decisions. Finally, as part of the Hospice Quality Reporting Program, CMS is proposing to add an icon to the Medicare.gov Compare Tool that will identify hospices failing to submit any data or submitting less than the required quality data beginning in the 2028 fiscal year.

Home Health. We derive the majority of our home health revenue from Medicare and managed care. The Medicare payment is adjusted for differences between estimated and actual payment amounts, an inability to obtain appropriate billing documentation or authorizations acceptable to the payor, and other reasons unrelated to credit risk. Net service revenue is recognized in accordance with PDGM methodology. Under PDGM, Medicare provides agencies with payments for each 30-day period of care provided to beneficiaries. If a beneficiary is still eligible for care after the end of the first 30-day payment period, a second 30-day payment period can begin. There are no limits to the number of periods of care a beneficiary who remains eligible for the home health benefit can receive. While payment for each 30-day period of care is adjusted to reflect the beneficiary’s health condition and needs, a special outlier provision exists to ensure appropriate payment for those beneficiaries that have the most expensive care needs. The PDGM payment under the Medicare program is also adjusted for certain variables including, but not limited to: (a) a low utilization payment adjustment if the number of visits is below an established threshold that varies based on the diagnosis of a beneficiary; (b) a partial payment if the patient transferred to another provider or the Company received a patient from another provider before completing the period of care; (c) adjustment to the admission source of claim if it is determined that the patient had a qualifying stay in a post-acute care setting within 14 days prior to the start of a 30-day payment period; (d) the timing of the 30-day payment period provided to a patient in relation to the admission date, regardless of whether the same home health provider provided care for the entire series of episodes; (e) changes to the acuity of the patient during the previous 30-day period of care; (f) changes in the base payments established by the Medicare program; (g) adjustments to the base payments for case mix and geographic wages; and (h) recoveries of overpayments. These variables are subject to periodic adjustments set by CMS regulations. For further detail regarding PDGM see the Government Regulation section of our 2025 Annual Report.
