SELECT MEDICAL HOLDINGS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.             Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Select Medical Holdings Corporation (“Holdings”) include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, Select Medical Corporation (“Select”). Holdings conducts substantially all of its business through Select and its subsidiaries. Holdings and Select and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.” The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2019,2020, and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 20182019 and 2019,2020, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting and the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Accordingly, certain information and disclosures required by GAAP, which are normally included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosure is adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, such information contains all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flow for such periods. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019,2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.2020. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 21, 2019.20, 2020.
2.Accounting Policies
2.Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including disclosure of contingencies, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The ASU provides temporary relief from some of the existing rules governing contract modifications when the modification is related to the replacement of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or other reference rates discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. The ASU specifically provides optional practical expedients for contract modification accounting related to contracts subject to ASC 310, Receivables, ASC 470, Debt, ASC 842, Leases, and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The ASU also establishes a general contract modification principle that entities can apply in other areas that may be affected by reference rate reform and certain elective hedge accounting expedients. For eligible contract modifications, the principle generally allows an entity to account for and present modifications as an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. That is, the modified contract is accounted for as a continuation of the existing contract. The standard was effective upon issuance on March 12, 2020, and the optional practical expedients can generally be applied to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into on or before December 31, 2022.
Borrowings under the Company’s senior secured credit agreement bear interest, at the election of Select, based on LIBOR or an alternate base rate. Provisions within the senior secured credit agreement currently provide the Company with the ability to replace LIBOR with a different reference rate in the event that LIBOR ceases to exist.

Table of Contents
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. As part of this update, convertible instruments are to be included in diluted earnings per share using the if-converted method, rather than the treasury stock method. Further, contracts which can be settled in cash or shares, excluding liability-classified share-based payment awards, are to be included in diluted earnings per share on an if-converted basis if the effect is dilutive, regardless of whether the entity or the counterparty can choose between cash and share settlement. The share-settlement presumption may not be rebutted based on past experience or a stated policy.
This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company plans to adopt this pronouncement as of January 1, 2022. The use of either the modified retrospective or fully retrospective method of transition is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Instruments
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326), which replaced the incurred loss approach for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments with an expected loss approach. The expected loss approach is subject to management judgments using assessments of incurred credit losses, assessments of current conditions, and forecasts using reasonable and supportable assumptions. The standard was required to be applied using the modified retrospective approach with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, if any, upon adoption.
The Company’s primary financial instrument subject to the standard is its accounts receivable derived from contracts with patients. Historically, the Company has experienced infrequent, immaterial credit losses related to its accounts receivable and, based on its experience, believes the risk of material defaults is low. The Company experienced credit losses of $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, credit loss recoveries of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, and credit losses of $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company’s historical credit losses have been infrequent and immaterial largely because the Company’s accounts receivable are typically paid for by highly-solvent, creditworthy payors such as Medicare, other governmental programs, and highly-regulated commercial insurers, on behalf of the patient. The Company believes it has moderate credit risk related to defaults on self-pay amounts in accounts receivable; however, these amounts represented less than 1.0% of the Company’s accounts receivable at January 1, 2020.
In estimating the Company’s expected credit losses under Topic 326, the Company considers its incurred loss experience and adjusts for known and expected events and other circumstances, identified using periodic assessments implemented by the Company, which management believes are relevant in assessing the collectability of its accounts receivable. Because of the infrequent and insignificant nature of the Company’s historical credit losses, forecasts of expected credit losses are generally unnecessary. Expected credit losses are recognized by the Company through an allowance for credit losses and related credit loss expense.
As of January 1, 2020, the Company completed its expected credit loss assessment for its financial instruments subject to Topic 326. The Company’s estimate of expected credit losses as of January 1, 2020, resulted in 0 adjustments to the allowance for credit losses and 0 cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings on the adoption date of the standard.

3.     Credit Risk Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash balances and tradeaccounts receivables. The Company’s excess cash is held with large financial institutions. The Company grants unsecured credit to its patients, most of whom reside in the service area of the Company’s facilities and are insured under third-party payor agreements. The Company’s general policy is to verify insurance coverage prior to the date of admission for patients admitted to the Company’sits critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals. Within the Company’s outpatient rehabilitation clinics, the Company verifies insurance coverage is verified prior to the patient’s visit. Within the Company’s Concentra centers, the Company verifies insurance coverage is verified or receivesan authorization is received from the patient’s employer prior to the patient’s visit.
Because of the geographic diversity ofin the Company’s facilities and non-governmental third-party payors,payor base, as well as their geographic dispersion, patient accounts receivable which are due from the Medicare representsprogram represent the Company’s only significant concentration of credit risk. Approximately 16%15% and 15%19% of the Company’s accounts receivable is from Medicare at December 31, 2018,2019, and September 30, 2019,2020, respectively.
Leases
The Company evaluates whether a contract is or contains a lease at the inception of the contract. Upon lease commencement, the date on which a lessor makes the underlying asset available to the Company for use, the Company classifies the lease as either an operating or finance lease. Most of the Company’s facility and equipment leases are classified as operating leases.4.     Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests
Balance Sheet
For both operating and finance leases, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and lease liability at lease commencement. A right-of-use asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term while the lease liability represents an obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease which are measured on a discounted basis. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for its equipment leases; accordingly, equipment leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets.

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining, fixed lease payments at lease commencement. The Company primarily uses its incremental borrowing rate, based on the information available at lease commencement, in determining the present value of its remaining lease payments. The Company’s leases may also specify extension or termination clauses. These options are factored into the measurement of the lease liability when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Right-of-use assets are measured at an amount equal to the initial lease liability, plus any prepaid lease payments (less any incentives received, such as reimbursement for leasehold improvements) and initial direct costs, at the lease commencement date.
The Company has elected to account for lease and non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, as a single lease component for its facility leases. As a result, the fixed payments that would otherwise be allocated to the non-lease components will be accounted for as lease payments and are included in the measurement of the Company’s right-of-use asset and lease liability.
Statement of Operations
For the Company’s operating leases, rent expense, a component of cost of services and general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The straight-line rent expense is reflective of the interest expense on the lease liability using the effective interest method and the amortization of the right-of-use asset. The Company may enter into arrangements to sublease portions of its facilities and the Company typically retains the obligation to the lessor under these arrangements. The Company’s subleases are classified as operating leases; accordingly, the Company continues to account for the original leases as it did prior to commencement of the subleases. Sublease income, a component of cost of services on the consolidated statements of operations, is recognized on a straight-line basis, as a reduction to rent expense, over the term of the sublease.
For the Company’s finance leases, interest expense on the lease liability is recognized using the effective interest method. Amortization expense related to the right-of-use asset is recognized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term.
The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for its equipment leases. For these leases, the Company recognizes lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments are expensed as incurred. These expenses are included as components of cost of services on the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company makes payments related to changes in indexes or rates after the lease commencement date. Additionally, the Company makes payments, which are not fixed at lease commencement, for property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance related to its facility leases. These variable lease payments, which are expensed as incurred, are included as a component of cost of services and general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Instruments

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The current standard delays the recognition of a credit loss on a financial asset until the loss is probable of occurring. The new standard removes the requirement that a credit loss be probable of occurring for it to be recognized and requires entities to use historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts to estimate their future expected credit losses. The financial instruments subject to ASU 2016-13 are the Company’s accounts receivable and notes receivable.

The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance must be applied using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. Given the very high rate of collectability of the Company’s financial instruments, the impact of ASU 2016-13 will not be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s implementation efforts are focused on finalizing the accounting processes and related controls associated with accounting for its financial instruments under the new standard.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Leases
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases using a modified retrospective approach as of January 1, 2019, for leases which existed on that date. Prior comparative periods were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC Topic 840, Leases.
The Company elected the package of practical expedients, which permitted the Company not to reassess under ASC Topic 842 the Company’s prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements; the latter not being applicable to the Company.
The adoption of the standard resulted in the recognition of operating lease right-of-use assets of $1,015.0 million and operating lease liabilities of $1,057.0 million at January 1, 2019. The difference between the operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities resulted from the reclassification of prepaid rent, deferred rent, unamortized lease incentives, and acquired favorable and unfavorable leasehold interests upon adoption. The Company did not recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption.
3.Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests
The ownership interests held by outside parties in subsidiaries, limited liability companies, and limited partnerships controlled by the Company are classified as non-controlling interests. Some of the Company’s non-controlling ownership interests consist of outside parties that have certain redemption rights that, if exercised, require the Company to purchase the parties’ ownership interests. These interests are classified and reported as redeemable non-controlling interests and have been adjusted to their approximate redemption values.
On January 1, 2020, Select acquired approximately 17.2% of the outstanding membership interests of Concentra Group Holdings Parent on a fully diluted basis from Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe XII, L.P. (“WCAS”), Dignity Health Holding Corporation (“DHHC”), and certain other sellers in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $338.4 million.

The gain resulted principally from the sale of 41 wholly owned outpatient rehabilitation clinics to non-consolidating subsidiaries.
6.Variable Interest Entities
Concentra does not own many of its medical practices, as certain states prohibit the “corporate practice of medicine,” which restricts business corporations from practicing medicine through the direct employment of physicians or from exercising control over medical decisions by physicians. In these states, Concentra typically enters into long-term management agreements with professional corporations or associations that are owned by licensed physicians, which, in turn, employ or contract with physicians who provide professional medical services in itsConcentra’s occupational health centers.
The management agreements have terms that provide for Concentra to conduct, supervise, and manage the day-to-day non-medical operations of the occupational health centers and provide all management and administrative services. Concentra receives a management fee for these services, which is based, in part, on the performance of the professional corporation or association. Additionally, the outstanding voting equity interests of the professional corporations or associations are typically owned by licensed physicians appointed at Concentra’s discretion. Concentra has the ability to direct the transfer of ownership of the professional corporation or association to a new licensed physician at any time.
The total assets of Concentra’s variable interest entities, which are comprised principally of accounts receivable, were $166.2$178.4 million and $202.3$180.7 million at December 31, 2018,2019, and September 30, 2019,2020, respectively. The total liabilities of Concentra’s variable interest entities, which are comprised principally of accounts payable, accrued expenses, and obligations payable for services received under the aforementioned management agreements, were $164.4$176.7 million and $200.9$179.4 million at December 31, 2018,2019, and September 30, 2019,2020, respectively.

11.     Sale of Businesses
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company sold 3 businesses, including Concentra’s Department of Veterans Affairs community-based outpatient clinic business, for a total selling price of approximately $87.0 million, which excludes transaction expenses and is subject to certain adjustments in accordance with the terms set forth in each respective purchase agreement. These sales resulted in non-operating gains of approximately $21.6 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company also accrued a liability and incurred a non-operating loss of $9.0 million related to the indemnity provision associated with a previously sold business.
12.    Earnings per Share
The Company’s capital structure includes common stock and unvested restricted stock awards. To compute earnings per share (“EPS”), the Company applies the two-class method because the Company’s unvested restricted stock awards are participating securities which are entitled to participate equally with the Company’s common stock in undistributed earnings. Application of the Company’s two-class method is as follows:
(i)Net income attributable to the Company is reduced by the amount of dividends declared and by the contractual amount of dividends that must be paid for the current period for each class of stock. There were 0 dividends declared or contractual dividends paid for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2019.
(ii)The remaining undistributed net income of the Company is then equally allocated to its common stock and unvested restricted stock awards, as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. The total net income allocated to each security is determined by adding both distributed and undistributed net income for the period.
(i)The net income allocated to each security is then divided by the weighted average number of outstanding shares for the period to determine the EPS for each security considered in the two-class method.
(i)Net income attributable to the Company is reduced by the amount of dividends declared and by the contractual amount of dividends that must be paid for the current period for each class of stock.

The total net income allocated to each security is determined by adding both distributed and undistributed net income for the period.
(iii)The net income allocated to each security is then divided by the weighted average number of outstanding shares for the period to determine the EPS for each security considered in the two-class method.

13.    Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is a party to various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (some of which are not insured), and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations in the ordinary course of its business. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, proceedings, and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations. These matters could potentially subject the Company to sanctions, damages, recoupments, fines, and other penalties. The Department of Justice, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”), or other federal and state enforcement and regulatory agencies may conduct additional investigations related to the Company’s businesses in the future that may, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.
To address claims arising out of the Company’s operations, the Company maintains professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance coverages through a number of different programs that are dependent upon such factors as the state where the Company is operating and whether the operations are wholly owned or are operated through a joint venture. For the Company’s wholly owned operations, the Company currently maintains insurance coverages under a combination of policies with a total annual aggregate limit of up to $40.0 million. The Company’s insurance for the professional liability coverage is written on a “claims-made” basis, and its commercial general liability coverage is maintained on an “occurrence” basis. These coverages apply after a self-insured retention limit is exceeded. For the Company’s joint venture operations, the Company has numerous programsdesigned a separate insurance program that are designed to respondresponds to the risks of the specific joint venture. The Company’s joint ventures are insured under a master program with an annual aggregate limit under these programs rangesof up to $80.0 million, subject to a sublimit aggregate ranging from $5.0$23.0 million to $20.0 million.$33.0 million for each specific joint venture. The policies are generally written on a “claims-made” basis. Each of these programs has either a deductible or self-insured retention limit. The Company reviews its insurance program annually and may make adjustments to the amount of insurance coverage and self-insured retentions in future years. The Company also maintains umbrella liability insurance covering claims which, due to their nature or amount, are not covered by or not fully covered by the Company’s other insurance policies. These insurance policies also do not generally cover punitive damages and are subject to various deductibles and policy limits. Significant legal actions, as well as the cost and possible lack of available insurance, could subject the Company to substantial uninsured liabilities. In the Company’s opinion, the outcome of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Healthcare providers are subject to lawsuits under the qui tam provisions of the federal False Claims Act. Qui tam lawsuits typically remain under seal (hence, usually unknown to the defendant) for some time while the government decides whether or not to intervene on behalf of a private qui tam plaintiff (known as a relator) and take the lead in the litigation. These lawsuits can involve significant monetary damages and penalties and award bounties to private plaintiffs who successfully bring the suits. The Company is and has been a defendant in these cases in the past, and may be named as a defendant in similar cases from time to time in the future.
Evansville Litigation.    On October 19, 2015, the plaintiff‑relators filed a Second Amended Complaint in United States of America, ex rel. Tracy Conroy, Pamela Schenk and Lisa Wilson v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Specialty Hospital-Evansville, LLC (“SSH‑Evansville”), Select Employment Services, Inc., and Dr. Richard Sloan. The case is a civil action filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana by private plaintiff‑relators on behalf of the United States under the federal False Claims Act. The plaintiff‑relators are the former CEO and 2 former case managers at SSH‑Evansville, and the defendants currently include the Company, SSH‑Evansville, a subsidiary of the Company serving as common paymaster for its employees, and a physician who practices at SSH‑Evansville. The plaintiff‑relators allege that SSH‑Evansville discharged patients too early or held patients too long, improperly discharged patients to and readmitted them from short stay hospitals, up‑coded diagnoses at admission, and admitted patients for whom long‑term acute care was not medically necessary. They also allege that the defendants engaged in retaliation in violation of federal and state law. The Second Amended Complaint replaced a prior complaint that was filed under seal on September 28, 2012 and served on the Company on February 15, 2013, after a federal magistrate judge unsealed it on January 8, 2013. All deadlines in the case had been stayed after the seal was lifted in order to allow the government time to complete its investigation and to decide whether or not to intervene. On June 19, 2015, the United States Department of Justice notified the District Court of its decision not to intervene in the case.
In December 2015, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on multiple grounds, including that the action is disallowed by the False Claims Act’s public disclosure bar, which disqualifies qui tam actions that are based on fraud already publicly disclosed through enumerated sources, unless the relator is an original source, and that the plaintiff‑relators did not plead their claims with sufficient particularity, as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.



Thereafter, the United States filed a notice asserting a veto of the defendants’ use of the public disclosure bar for claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010, which was based on certain statutory changes to the public disclosure bar language included in the Affordable Care Act. On September 30, 2016, the District Court partially granted and partially denied the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss. It ruled that the plaintiff‑relators alleged substantially the same conduct as had been publicly disclosed and that the plaintiff-relators are not original sources, so that the public disclosure bar requires dismissal of all non‑retaliation claims arising from conduct before March 23, 2010. The District Court also ruled that the statutory changes to the public disclosure bar gave the United States the power to veto its applicability to claims arising from conduct on and after March 23, 2010, and therefore did not dismiss those claims based on the public disclosure bar. However, the District Court ruled that the plaintiff‑relators did not plead certain of their claims relating to interrupted stay manipulation and premature discharging of patients with the requisite particularity, and dismissed those claims. The District Court declined to dismiss the plaintiff-relators’ claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010 relating to delayed discharging of patients and up-coding and the plaintiff-relators’ retaliation claims. The plaintiff-relators then proposed a case management plan seeking nationwide discovery involving all of the Company’s LTCHs for the period from March 23, 2010 through the present and allowing discovery that would facilitate the use of statistical sampling to prove liability, which the defendants opposed. In April 2018, a U.S. magistrate judge ruled that plaintiff‑relators’ discovery will be limited to only SSH-Evansville for the period from March 23, 2010 through September 30, 2016, and that the plaintiff‑relators will be required to prove the fraud that they allege on a claim-by-claim basis, rather than using statistical sampling. The plaintiff-relators appealed this decision to the district judge who, in March 2019, affirmed the decision of the magistrate judge regarding the geographic and temporal scope of the case, but ruled that the question of statistical sampling is not ripe for review.
In October 2019, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the United States government and the plaintiff-relators. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to make payments to the government, the plaintiff-relators and their counsel. Such payments, in the aggregate, are immaterial to the Company’s financial statements.  In the settlement agreement, the government and the plaintiff-relators released all defendants from liability for all conduct alleged in the complaint, and the Company admitted no liability or wrongdoing.
Wilmington Litigation.    On January 19, 2017, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware unsealed a qui tam Complaint in United States of America and State of Delaware ex rel. Theresa Kelly v. Select Specialty Hospital-Wilmington, Inc. (“SSH‑Wilmington”SSH-Wilmington”), Select Specialty Hospitals, Inc., Select Employment Services, Inc., Select Medical Corporation, and Crystal Cheek, No. 16‑347‑LPS. The Complaint was initially filed under seal in May 2016 by a former chief nursing officer at SSH‑WilmingtonSSH-Wilmington and was unsealed after the United States filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention in January 2017. The corporate defendants were served in March 2017. In the complaint, the plaintiff‑relatorplaintiff-relator alleges that the Select defendants and an individual defendant, who is a former health information manager at SSH‑Wilmington,SSH-Wilmington, violated the False Claims Act and the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act based on allegedly falsifying medical practitioner signatures on medical records and failing to properly examine the credentials of medical practitioners at SSH‑Wilmington.SSH-Wilmington. In response to the Select defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint, in May 2017 the plaintiff-relator filed an Amended Complaint asserting the same causes of action. The Select defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint based on numerous grounds, including that the Amended Complaint did not plead any alleged fraud with sufficient particularity, failed to plead that the alleged fraud was material to the government’s payment decision, failed to plead sufficient facts to establish that the Select defendants knowingly submitted false claims or records, and failed to allege any reverse false claim. In March 2018, the District Court dismissed the plaintiff‑relator’splaintiff-relator’s claims related to the alleged failure to properly examine medical practitioners’ credentials, her reverse false claims allegations, and her claim that defendants violated the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act. It denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss claims that the allegedly falsified medical practitioner signatures violated the False Claims Act. Separately, the District Court dismissed the individual defendant due to plaintiff-relator’s failure to timely serve the amended complaint upon her.

In March 2017, the plaintiff-relator initiated a second action by filing a Complaint in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware in Theresa Kelly v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Employment Services, Inc., and SSH‑Wilmington,SSH-Wilmington, C.A. No. N17C-03-293 CLS. The Delaware Complaint alleges that the defendants retaliated against her in violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act for reporting the same alleged violations that are the subject of the federal Amended Complaint. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss, or alternatively to stay, the Delaware Complaint based on the pending federal Amended Complaint and the failure to allege facts to support a violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act.  In January 2018, the Court stayed the Delaware Complaint pending the outcome of the federal case.
The Company intends to vigorously defend these actions, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Contract Therapy Subpoena. On May 18, 2017, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey seeking various documents principally relating to the Company’s contract therapy division, which contracted to furnish rehabilitation therapy services to residents of skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”) and other providers. The Company operated its contract therapy division through a subsidiary until March 31, 2016, when the Company sold the stock of the subsidiary. The subpoena seeks documents that appear to be aimed at assessing whether therapy services were furnished and billed in compliance with Medicare SNF billing requirements, including whether therapy services were coded at inappropriate levels and whether excessive or unnecessary therapy was furnished to justify coding at higher paying levels. The U.S. Attorney’s Office has indicated that the subpoena was issued in connection with a qui tam lawsuit. The Company has produced documents in response to the subpoena and intends to fully cooperate with this investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.
Ann Arbor Complaint.On May 12, 2020, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan unsealed qui tam Complaints in United States of America and State of Michigan ex rel. Neal Elkin v. Select Medical Holdings Corp., Select Medical, and Select Specialty Hospital – Ann Arbor, Inc. (“SSH-Ann Arbor”), No. 12-cv-13984. An initial Complaint was filed under seal in September 2012 and a First Amended Complaint was filed under seal in September 2019. Both Complaints were unsealed after the United States and State of Michigan filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention in May 2020. In the First Amended Complaint, the plaintiff-relator, a physician formerly practicing at SSH-Ann Arbor, alleges that the defendants had a policy to keep respiratory patients on ventilators longer than medically necessary in order to increase reimbursement, and that, after he complained of this practice, SSH-Ann Arbor retaliated by refusing to assign new patients to him. The First Amended Complaint has not yet been served on the defendants. If the plaintiff-relator serves the First Amended Complaint and pursues this action, the Company intends to vigorously defend this action; however, at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.
Oklahoma City Subpoena.On August 24, 2020, the Company and Select Specialty Hospital – Oklahoma City, Inc. (“SSH–Oklahoma City”) received Civil Investigative Demands from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Oklahoma seeking responses to interrogatories and the production of various documents principally relating to the documentation, billing and reviews of medical services furnished to patients at SSH-Oklahoma City. The Company does not know whether the subpoena has been issued in connection with a qui tam lawsuit or in connection with possible civil, criminal or administrative proceedings by the government. The Company is producing documents in response to the subpoena and intends to fully cooperate with this investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

14.     Supplemental Financial InformationCARES Act
Provider Relief Funds
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted. The CARES Act provided additional waivers, reimbursement, grants and other funds to assist health care providers during the COVID-19 pandemic, including $100.0 billion in appropriations for the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund, also referred to as the Provider Relief Fund, to be used for preventing, preparing, and responding to the coronavirus, and for reimbursing eligible health care providers for lost revenues and health care related expenses that are attributable to COVID-19. These health care related expenses could include costs associated with constructing temporary structures or emergency operation centers, retrofitting facilities, purchasing medical supplies and equipment including personal protective equipment and testing supplies, and increasing workforce and trainings. The Company’s consolidated subsidiaries received approximately $120.8 million of Concentra Group Holdings Parentpayments under the Provider Relief Fund as of September 30, 2020.

On September 19, 2020, the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) released a post-payment notice of reporting requirements associated with the payments made under the Provider Relief Fund. Under these reporting requirements, among other things, recipients of Provider Relief Fund payments must first apply the payments against health care related expenses attributable to COVID-19 which are not reimbursable by other sources. Then, payments may be applied to lost revenues. HHS changed the definition of lost revenues provided in prior guidance, and now defines lost revenues as “a negative change in year-over-year net patient care operating income.” The calculation of lost revenues is net of health care related expenses attributable to COVID-19, as mentioned above.
Under the Company’s accounting policy, payments are recognized as other operating income when it is probable that it has complied with the terms and conditions of the funds, as outlined by HHS. The Company believes that the reporting requirements issued on September 19, 2020, are a change to, rather than clarification of, the terms and conditions which existed upon receipt of the Provider Relief Fund payments. As such, the Company evaluated compliance with the terms and conditions set forth under the new reporting requirements as of September 30, 2020 and, during the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a reduction to other operating income of $1.2 million on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized approximately $53.8 million as other operating income on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.
The following tables summarize selected financial informationremaining Provider Relief Fund payments of Concentra Group Holdings Parent.approximately $66.9 million are reported as “unearned government assistance” on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. There is uncertainty regarding whether all payments received by the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries will be recognized as other operating income in future periods. Such funds may need to be repaid to the government to the extent that payments received exceed lost revenues and health care related expenses attributable to COVID-19.
Changes to Provider Relief Fund Reporting Requirements
On October 22, 2020, HHS released a second post-payment notice of reporting requirements associated with the payments made under the Provider Relief Fund. Under the revised reporting requirements, among other things, HHS defined lost revenues as “a negative change in year-over-year actual revenue from patient care related sources,” rather than “a negative change in year-over-year net patient care operating income” as outlined above.
The Company believes that the reporting requirements issued on October 22, 2020, are a change to, rather than clarification of, the terms and conditions which existed on September 19, 2020. As such, any changes in other operating income as a result of the revised reporting requirements issued on October 22, 2020, will be recognized in periods subsequent to September 30, 2020.
Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payments Program
In accordance with the CARES Act, CMS temporarily expanded its current Accelerated and Advance Payment Program for Medicare providers. Under this program, qualified healthcare providers could receive advanced or accelerated payments from CMS. The Company’s consolidated subsidiaries received approximately $318.1 million of advanced payments under this program. The majority of these payments were received in April 2020.
For the Company’s critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals, repayment of amounts received under the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program were originally due 210 days after the advanced payment was issued, with CMS having the ability to recoup the advanced payments through future Medicare claims billed by the Company’s hospitals, beginning 121 days after the advanced payment was issued. As of September 30, 2020, CMS had not recouped any of the advanced payments provided to the Company under this program.

On October 1, 2020, a short-term government funding bill was signed into law. This bill, among other things, extended the repayment terms for providers who received advanced payments under the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program. The bill modified the terms of repayment so that a provider can request no recoupment for one year after the advanced payment was issued, followed by a 25.0% recoupment of Medicare payments during the next 11 months, and 50.0% recoupment of Medicare payments during the last six months. Any amounts that remain unpaid after 29 months would be subject to a 4.0% interest rate.

There is still uncertainty regarding how these modified terms will impact the timing of the Company’s repayment of the advances it has received; accordingly, amounts received under the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program are reflected as a current liability under “government advances” on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Employer Payroll Tax Deferral
In April 2020, the Company began deferring payment on its share of payroll taxes owed, as allowed by the CARES Act through December 31, 2020. The Company is able to defer half of its share of payroll taxes owed until December 31, 2021, with the remaining half due on December 31, 2022. As of September 30, 2020, the Company deferred approximately $67.6 million of payroll taxes. These amounts are reflected in “other non-current liabilities” on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.
15.     Income Taxes

The CARES Act, which was enacted on March 27, 2020, includes changes to certain tax law related to net operating losses and the deductibility of interest expense and depreciation. ASC 740, 
Income Taxes, requires the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. This legislation had the effect of increasing the Company’s deferred income taxes and decreasing its current income taxes payable by approximately $15.5 million and resulted from bonus depreciation on certain types of qualified property for tax years beginning January 1, 2018, and the provision for an increase in the amounts allowed for interest expense deductions for tax years beginning January 1, 2019. The legislation related to net operating losses did not impact the Company’s deferred tax balances.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read this discussion together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “target,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” and similar expressions.

Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic, additional measures taken by government authorities and the private sector to limit the spread of COVID-19, and further legislative and regulatory actions which impact healthcare providers, including actions that may impact the Medicare program;
changes in government reimbursement for our services and/or new payment policies may result in a reduction in net operating revenues, an increase in costs, and a reduction in profitability;
the failure of our Medicare-certified long term care hospitals or inpatient rehabilitation facilities to maintain their Medicare certifications may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;
the failure of our Medicare-certified long term care hospitals and inpatient rehabilitation facilitiesoperated as “hospitals within hospitals” to qualify as hospitals separate from their host hospitals may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;
operated as “hospitals within hospitals” to qualify as hospitals separate from their host hospitals may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;
a government investigation or assertion that we have violated applicable regulations may result in sanctions or reputational harm and increased costs;
acquisitions or joint ventures may prove difficult or unsuccessful, use significant resources, or expose us to unforeseen liabilities;
our plans and expectations related to our acquisitions including the acquisition of U.S. HealthWorks by Concentra, and our ability to realize anticipated synergies;
private third-party payors for our services may adopt payment policies that could limit our future net operating revenues and profitability;
the failure to maintain established relationships with the physicians in the areas we serve could reduce our net operating revenues and profitability;
shortages in qualified nurses, therapists, physicians, or other licensed providers, or the inability to attract or retain healthcare professionals due to the heightened risk of infection related to the COVID-19 pandemic, could increase our operating costs significantly or limit our ability to staff our facilities;
competition may limit our ability to grow and result in a decrease in our net operating revenues and profitability;
the loss of key members of our management team could significantly disrupt our operations;
the effect of claims asserted against us could subject us to substantial uninsured liabilities;
a security breach of our or our third-party vendors’ information technology systems may subject us to potential legal and reputational harm and may result in a violation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 or the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act; and

Thus, to the extent that reports issued by securities analysts contain any projections, forecasts or opinions, such reports are not the responsibility of the Company.
Overview
 We began operations in 1997 and, based on number of facilities, are one of the largest operators of critical illness recovery hospitals, rehabilitation hospitals, outpatient rehabilitation clinics, and occupational health centers in the United States. As of September 30, 2019,2020, we had operations in 4746 states and the District of Columbia. We operated 100 critical illness recovery hospitals in 28 states, 29 rehabilitation hospitals in 12 states, and 1,7071,777 outpatient rehabilitation clinics in 37 states and the District of Columbia. Concentra, a joint venture subsidiary, operated 523 occupational health centers in 41 states as of September 30, 2019.2020. Concentra also provides contract services at employer worksites and Department of Veterans Affairs community-based outpatient clinics (“CBOCs”).worksites.
Our reportable segments include the critical illness recovery hospital segment, the rehabilitation hospital segment, the outpatient rehabilitation segment, and the Concentra segment. We had net operating revenues of $4,079.3$4,071.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.2020. Of this total, we earned approximately 34%38% of our net operating revenues from our critical illness recovery hospital segment, approximately 12%13% from our rehabilitation hospital segment, approximately 19%16% from our outpatient rehabilitation segment, and approximately 30%27% from our Concentra segment. Our critical illness recovery hospital segment consists of hospitals designed to serve the needs of patients recovering from critical illnesses, often with complex medical needs, and our rehabilitation hospital segment consists of hospitals designed to serve patients that require intensive physical rehabilitation care. Patients are typically admitted to our critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals from general acute care hospitals. Our outpatient rehabilitation segment consists of clinics that provide physical, occupational, and speech rehabilitation services. Our Concentra segment consists of occupational health centers that provide workers’ compensation injury care, physical therapy, and consumer health services as well as onsite clinics located at employer worksites that deliver occupational medicine services. Additionally, our Concentra segment delivers veteran’s healthcare through its Department

Table of Veterans Affairs CBOCs. During 2019, we began reporting the net operating revenues and expenses associated with employee leasing services provided to our non-consolidating subsidiaries as part of our other activities. Previously, these services were reflected in the financial results of our reportable segments. Under these employee leasing arrangements, actual labor costs are passed through to our non-consolidating subsidiaries, resulting in our recognition of net operating revenues equal to the actual labor costs incurred. Prior year results presented herein have been changed to conform to the current presentation.Contents
Non-GAAP Measure
We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, is important to investors because Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as an analytical indicator of performance by investors within the healthcare industry. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate financial performance and determine resource allocation for each of our operating segments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).GAAP. Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, net income, income from operations, cash flows generated by operations, investing or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance or liquidity. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying definitions, Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings excluding interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain (loss) on early retirement of debt, stock compensation expense, acquisition costs associated with U.S. HealthWorks, gain (loss) on sale of businesses, and equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated subsidiaries. We will refer to Adjusted EBITDA throughout the remainder of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The table below reconciles net income and income from operations to Adjusted EBITDA and should be referenced when we discuss Adjusted EBITDA:

Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Results of Operations
The continuing implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations and overall financial performance remain uncertain. We have provided net operating revenues and certain operating statistics to assist readers in understanding how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted each of our segments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Please refer to our risk factors previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020 for further discussion.
Critical Illness Recovery Hospital Segment. Our critical illness recovery hospitals are a key component of the inpatient hospital continuum of care. Both CMS and Congress acted to temporarily suspend certain regulations concerning length of stay requirements, which apply to our critical illness recovery hospitals, in order to facilitate the transfer of patients from general acute care hospitals (see “Regulatory Changes” for further discussion of the temporary suspension of regulations). This was done in order to expand hospital bed capacity to care for COVID-19 patients. COVID-19 has been prevalent in certain markets that we serve; as a result, our critical illness recovery hospitals have admitted patients with COVID-19 and we have faced the challenging task of treating those patients while also taking measures to protect our patients and staff members who do not have COVID-19. The pandemic has caused, and may continue to cause, disruptions in our critical illness recovery hospitals, which include, in some cases, the addition or reduction of beds, the creation of isolated units and spaces, temporary increases or restrictions on admissions, the incurrence of additional costs, staff illnesses, and the increased use of contract clinical labor.
The following table shows the trend in net operating revenues, patient day volume, and occupancy rates for each of the periods presented, as well as the number of critical illness recovery hospitals we owned at the end of each period.

Rehabilitation Hospital Segment. Our rehabilitation hospitals receive most of their admissions from general acute care hospitals. Both CMS and Congress acted to temporarily suspend certain regulations that govern admissions into our rehabilitation hospitals in order to facilitate the transfer of patients from general acute care hospitals and critical illness recovery hospitals (see “Regulatory Changes” for further discussion of the temporary suspension of regulations). This was done in order to expand hospital bed capacity to care for COVID-19 patients. COVID-19 has been prevalent in certain markets that we serve; as a result, our rehabilitation hospitals have admitted patients with COVID-19 and we have faced the challenging task of treating those patients while also taking measures to protect our patients and staff members who do not have COVID-19. The pandemic has caused, and will continue to cause, disruptions in our rehabilitation hospitals, which include, in some cases, the addition or reduction of beds, the creation of isolated units and spaces, temporary restrictions on admissions, the incurrence of additional costs, staff illnesses, and the increased use of contract clinical labor. At the beginning of the pandemic, elective surgeries at hospitals and other facilities were suspended, which reduced the need for inpatient rehabilitation services. Beginning in May, state governments and health departments began to ease these restrictions and hospitals began to perform elective surgeries again, which has since increased the need for the services provided by our rehabilitation hospitals.
The following table shows the trend in net operating revenues, patient day volume, and occupancy rates for each of the periods presented, as well as the number of rehabilitation hospitals we owned at the end of each period.

Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment. Beginning in mid-March, state governments began implementing mandatory closures of non-essential or non-life sustaining businesses, restricting travel and individual activities outside of the home, closing schools, and mandating other social distancing measures. Additionally, hospitals and other facilities began to suspend elective surgeries. As a result, our outpatient rehabilitation clinics experienced significantly less patient visit volume due to a decline in patient referrals from physicians, a reduction in workers’ compensation injury visits resulting from the temporary closure of businesses, and the suspension of elective surgeries which would have required outpatient rehabilitation services. Beginning in May, state governments began to ease restrictions imposed on individuals and businesses. Further, most physician offices have reopened for routine office visits and hospitals and other facilities have begun to perform elective surgeries again, which has since increased the need for services provided by our outpatient rehabilitation clinics.

Concentra Segment. Beginning in mid-March, state governments began placing significant restrictions on businesses and mandating closures of non-essential or non-life sustaining businesses, causing many employers to furlough their workforce and temporarily cease or significantly reduce their operations. These actions have had significant effects on our patient visit volumes. Beginning in May, state governments began to ease restrictions imposed on businesses and employers began to increase their workforce, which has since resulted in an increased need for our occupational health services.

Regulatory Changes
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2019,20, 2020, contains a detailed discussion of the regulations that affect our business in Part I — Business — Government Regulations. The following is a discussion of some of the more significant healthcare regulatory changes that have affected our financial performance in the periods covered by this report or are likely to affect our financial performance and financial condition in the future. The information below should be read in conjunction with the more detailed discussion of regulations contained in our Form 10-K.
Medicare Reimbursement
The Medicare program reimburses healthcare providers for services furnished to Medicare beneficiaries, which are generally persons age 65 and older, those who are chronically disabled, and those suffering from end stage renal disease. The program is governed by the Social Security Act of 1965 and is administered primarily by the Department of Health and Human ServicesHHS and CMS. Net operating revenues generated directly from the Medicare program represented approximately 26%25% of our net operating revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019,2020, and 27%26% of our net operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.
Federal Health Care Program Changes in Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic
On January 31, 2020, HHS declared a public health emergency under section 319 of the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. § 247d, in response to the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States. The HHS Secretary renewed the public health emergency determination for 90-day periods effective on April 26, 2020, July 25, 2020, and October 23, 2020. On March 13, 2020, President Trump declared a national emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the HHS Secretary authorized the waiver or modification of certain requirements under the Medicare, Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (“CHIP”) pursuant to section 1135 of the Social Security Act. Under this authority, CMS issued a number of blanket waivers that excuse health care providers or suppliers from specific program requirements. The following blanket waivers, while in effect, may impact our results of operations:
i.Inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRFs”), IRF units, and hospitals and units applying to be classified as IRFs, can exclude patients admitted solely to respond to the emergency from the calculation of the “60 percent rule” thresholds to receive payment as an IRF.
ii.Long-term care hospitals (“LTCHs”) are exempt from the greater-than-25-day average length of stay requirement for all cost reporting periods that include the COVID-19 public health emergency period. Hospitals seeking LTCH classification can exclude patient stays from the greater-than-25-day average length of stay requirement where the patient was admitted or discharged to meet the demands of the COVID-19 public health emergency.
iii.Medicare expanded the types of health care professionals who can furnish telehealth services to include all those who are eligible to bill Medicare for their professional services. This allows health care professionals who were previously ineligible to furnish and bill for Medicare telehealth services, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech language pathologists, and others, to receive payment for Medicare telehealth services.
iv.Medicare will not require out-of-state physician and non-physician practitioners to be licensed in the state where they are providing services when they are licensed in another state, subject to certain conditions and state or local licensure requirements.
v.Many requirements under the hospital conditions of participation (“CoPs”) are waived during the emergency period to give hospitals more flexibility in treating COVID-19 patients.
vi.Hospitals can operate temporary expansion locations without meeting the provider-based entity requirements or certain requirements in the physical environment CoP for hospitals during the emergency. This waiver also allows hospitals to change the status of their current provider-based department locations to meet patient needs as part of the state or local pandemic plan.
vii.IRFs, LTCHs and certain other providers did not need to submit quality data to Medicare for October 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020 to comply with the quality reporting programs.
viii.The HHS Secretary waived sanctions under the physician self-referral law (i.e., Stark law) for certain types of remuneration and referral arrangements that are related to a COVID-19 purpose. The Office of the Inspector General (“OIG”) will also exercise enforcement discretion to not impose administrative sanctions under the federal anti-kickback statute for many payments covered by the Stark law waivers.

CMS also approved section 1135 waivers for 54 state Medicaid programs (including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and other territories), 50 temporary changes to Medicaid or CHIP state plan amendments, 2 traditional changes to Medicaid state plan amendments, and section 1115 waivers for 7 state Medicaid demonstration projects addressing the COVID-19 public health emergency. CMS will consider specific waiver requests from providers and suppliers. We have submitted one or more specific waiver requests to make it easier for our operators or referral partners to treat COVID-19 patients, and we may submit others in the future.
Pursuant to the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, Public Law 116-123, CMS has waived Medicare telehealth payment requirements during the emergency so that beneficiaries in all areas of the country (not just rural areas) can receive telehealth services, including in their homes, beginning on March 6, 2020. CMS issued additional waivers to permit more than 130 additional services to be furnished by telehealth, allow physicians to monitor patient services remotely, and fulfill face-to-face requirements in IRFs.
In addition to these agency actions, the CARES Act was enacted on March 27, 2020. It provides additional waivers, reimbursement, grants and other funds to assist health care providers during the COVID-19 public health emergency. Some of the CARES Act provisions that may impact our operations include:
i.$100 billion in appropriations for the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund to be used for preventing, preparing, and responding to the coronavirus, and for reimbursing “eligible health care providers for health care related expenses or lost revenues that are attributable to coronavirus.” The Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act, Public Law 116-139, added $75 billion to this fund. HHS has allocated three general distributions from the fund for payments to Medicare providers. The Phase 1 General Distribution included $30 billion for health care providers that received Medicare fee-for-service payments in 2019. Another $20 billion was distributed to Medicare providers in a manner that makes the entire $50 billion Phase 1 General Distribution proportional to each provider’s share of 2018 net patient revenue. The Phase 2 General Distribution allocated $18 billion for providers in state Medicaid/CHIP programs, Medicaid managed care plans, dentists, and certain Medicare providers who did not receive a Phase 1 General Distribution payment. The Phase 3 General Distribution includes $20 billion for providers to apply for if they suffered financial losses caused by COVID-19 or if they were previously ineligible for a general distribution. The remainder of the COVID-19 related appropriations to the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund is for targeted allocations to providers in high impact COVID-19 areas ($22 billion), rural providers (approximately $11.3 billion), skilled nursing facilities (approximately $7.4 billion), safety net hospitals (approximately $14.7 billion), Indian Health Service ($500 million), and unspecified allocations for providers treating uninsured COVID-19 patients.
ii.Expansion of the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program to advance three months of payments to Medicare providers. CMS has the ability to recoup the advanced payments through future Medicare claims. Section 2501 of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2021 and Other Extensions Act, Public Law 116-159, modified the terms of repayment so that a provider can request no recoupment for one year after the advanced payment was issued, followed by a 25% offset the next 11 months, and a 50% offset the last 6 months. Any amounts that remain unpaid after 29 months will be subject to a 4% interest rate (instead of 10.25%).
iii.Temporary suspension of the 2% cut to Medicare payments due to sequestration so that, for the period of May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020, the Medicare program will be exempt from any sequestration order.
iv.Two waivers of Medicare statutory requirements regarding site neutral payment to LTCHs. The first waives the LTCH discharge payment percentage requirement (i.e., 50% rule) for the cost reporting period(s) that include the emergency period. The second waives application of the site neutral payment rate so that all LTCH cases admitted during the emergency period will be paid the LTCH-PPS standard federal rate.
v.Waiver of the IRF 3-hour rule so that IRF services provided during the public health emergency period do not need to meet the coverage requirement that patients receive at least 3 hours of therapy a day or 15 hours of therapy per week.
vi.Broader waiver authority for HHS under section 1135 of the Social Security Act to issue additional telehealth waivers.
The CARES Act also provides for a 20% increase in the payment weight for Medicare payments to hospitals paid under the inpatient hospital prospective payment system (“IPPS”) for treating COVID-19 patients. We are monitoring developments related to this provision, in case CMS provides a similar payment add-on for LTCHs and IRFs.

Medicare Reimbursement of LTCH Services
The following is a summary of significant regulatory changes affectingto the Medicare prospective payment system for our critical illness recovery hospitals, which are certified by Medicare as long term care hospitals (“LTCHs”),LTCHs, which have affected our results of operations, as well as the policies and payment rates that may affect our future results of operations. Medicare payments to our critical illness recovery hospitals are made in accordance with the long termlong-term care hospital prospective payment system (“LTCH-PPS”).
The following is a summary of significant changes to LTCH-PPS which have affected our results of operations, as well as the policies and payment rates that may affect our future results of operations.
Fiscal Year 2018. On August 14, 2017, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the LTCH-PPS for fiscal year 2018 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2017 through September 30, 2018). Certain errors in the final rule published on August 14, 2017 were corrected in a final rule published October 4, 2017. The standard federal rate was set at $41,415, a decrease from the standard federal rate applicable during fiscal year 2017 of $42,476. The update to the standard federal rate for fiscal year 2018 included a market basket increase of 2.7%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.6%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the Affordable Care Act (“ACA”). The update to the standard federal rate for fiscal year 2018 was further impacted by the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015, which limits the update for fiscal year 2018 to 1.0%. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under LTCH-PPS was set at $27,381, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2017 fiscal year of $21,943. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under the site-neutral payment rate was set at $26,537, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2017 fiscal year of $23,573.
Fiscal Year 2019. On August 17, 2018, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the LTCH-PPS for fiscal year 2019 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019). Certain errors in the final rule were corrected in a final ruledocument published October 3, 2018. The standard federal rate was set at $41,559, an increase from the standard federal rate applicable during fiscal year 2018 of $41,415. The update to the standard federal rate for fiscal year 2019 included a market basket increase of 2.9%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.8%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA. The standard federal rate also included an area wage budget neutrality factor of 0.999215 and a temporary, one-time budget neutrality adjustment of 0.990878 in connection with the elimination of the 25 Percent Rule (discussed herein).Rule. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under LTCH-PPS was set at $27,121, a decrease from the fixed-loss amount in the 2018 fiscal year of $27,381. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under the site-neutral payment rate was set at $25,743, a decrease from the fixed-loss amount in the 2018 fiscal year of $26,537.

Fiscal Year 2020. On August 16, 2019, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the LTCH-PPS for fiscal year 2020 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2020). Certain errors in the final rule were corrected in a final ruledocument published October 8, 2019. The standard federal rate was set at $42,678, an increase from the standard federal rate applicable during fiscal year 2019 of $41,559. The update to the standard federal rate for fiscal year 2020 included a market basket increase of 2.9%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.4%. The standard federal rate also included an area wage budget neutrality factor of 1.0020203 and a temporary, one-time budget neutrality adjustment of 0.999858 in connection with the elimination of the 25 Percent Rule (discussed herein).Rule. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under LTCH-PPS was set at $26,778, a decrease from the fixed-loss amount in the 2019 fiscal year of $27,121. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under the site-neutral payment rate was set at $26,552, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2019 fiscal year of $25,743. For LTCH discharges occurring in cost reporting periods beginning in FY 2020, site neutral payment rate cases will begin to be paid fully on the site neutral payment rate, rather than the transitional blended rate. However, the CARES Act waives the site neutral payment rate for patients admitted during such coronavirus emergency period and in response to the public health emergency, as discussed above.
25 Percent Rule
The “25 Percent Rule” was a downwardFiscal Year 2021. On September 18, 2020, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment adjustment that applied ifrates for the percentage of Medicare patients discharged from LTCHs who were admitted from a referring hospital (regardless of whether the LTCH or LTCH satellite is co-located with the referring hospital) exceeded the applicable percentage admissions threshold during a particularLTCH-PPS for fiscal year 2021 (affecting discharges and cost reporting period.
Forperiods beginning on or after October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021). The standard federal rate for fiscal year 2018, CMS adopted a regulatory moratorium on the implementation of the 25 Percent Rule.
For fiscal year 2019 and thereafter, CMS eliminated the 25 Percent Rule entirely. The elimination of the 25 Percent Rule is being implemented in a budget neutral manner by adjusting2021 was set at $43,755, an increase from the standard federal payment rates down such thatrate applicable during fiscal year 2020 of $42,678. The update to the projectionstandard federal rate for fiscal year 2021 included a market basket increase of aggregate LTCH payments would equal the projection2.3% with no productivity adjustment. The standard federal rate also included an area wage budget neutrality factor of aggregate LTCH payments that would have been paid if the moratorium ended1.0016837 and the 25 Percent Rule went into effect on October 1, 2018. As a result,permanent, one-time budget neutrality adjustment of 1.000517 in connection with the elimination of the 25 Percent Rule includes a temporary, one-time adjustment toRule. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under LTCH-PPS was set at $27,195, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2020 fiscal year 2019 LTCH-PPS standard federalof $26,778. The fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases paid under the site-neutral payment rate a temporary, one-time adjustment towas set at $29,051, an increase from the fixed-loss amount in the 2020 fiscal year 2020 LTCH-PPS standard federal payment rate, and a permanent, one-time adjustment to the LTCH-PPS standard federal payment rate in fiscal years 2021 and subsequent years.of $26,552.
Medicare Reimbursement of IRF Services
The following is a summary of significant regulatory changes affectingto the Medicare prospective payment system for our rehabilitation hospitals, which are certified by Medicare as inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRFs”),IRFs, which have affected our results of operations, as well as the policies and payment rates that may affect our future results of operations. Medicare payments to our rehabilitation hospitals are made in accordance with the inpatient rehabilitation facility prospective payment system (“IRF-PPS”).
The following is a summary of significant changes to IRF-PPS which have affected our results of operations, as well as the policies and payment rates that may affect our future results of operations.
Fiscal Year 2018. On August 3, 2017, CMS published the final rule updating policies and payment rates for the IRF-PPS for fiscal year 2018 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2017 through September 30, 2018). The standard payment conversion factor for discharges for fiscal year 2018 was set at $15,838, an increase from the standard payment conversion factor applicable during fiscal year 2017 of $15,708. The update to the standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 2018 included a market basket increase of 2.6%, less a productivity adjustment of 0.6%, and less a reduction of 0.75% mandated by the ACA.

Medicare Reimbursement of Outpatient Rehabilitation Clinic Services
Outpatient rehabilitation providers enroll in Medicare as a rehabilitation agency, a clinic, or a public health agency. The Medicare program reimburses outpatient rehabilitation providers based on the Medicare physician fee schedule. For services provided in 2017 through 2019, a 0.5% update was applied each year to the fee schedule payment rates, subject to an adjustment beginning in 2019 under the Merit‑BasedMerit-Based Incentive Payment System (“MIPS”). In 2019, CMS added physical and occupational therapists to the list of MIPS eligible clinicians. For these therapists in private practice, payments under the fee schedule are subject to adjustment in a later year based on their performance in MIPS according to established performance standards. Calendar year 2021 is the first year that payments are adjusted, based upon the therapist’s performance under MIPS in 2019. Providers in facility-based outpatient therapy settings are excluded from MIPS eligibility and therefore not subject to this payment adjustment. For services provided in 2020 through 2025, a 0.0% percent update will be applied each year to the fee schedule payment rates, subject to adjustments under MIPS and the alternative payment models (“APMs”). In 2026 and subsequent years, eligible professionals participating in APMs who meet certain criteria would receive annual updates of 0.75%, while all other professionals would receive annual updates of 0.25%.
Beginning in 2019, payments under the fee schedule are subject to adjustment based on performance in MIPS, which measures performance based on certain quality metrics, resource use, and meaningful use of electronic health records. Under the MIPS requirements an eligible clinician’s performance is assessed according to established performance standards and used to determine an adjustment factor that is then applied to the clinician’s payment for a year. Each year from 2019 through 2024 eligible clinicians who receive a significant share of their revenues through an advanced APM (such as accountable care organizations or bundled payment arrangements) that involves risk of financial losses and a quality measurement component will receive a 5% bonus. The bonus payment for APM participation is intended to encourage participation and testing of new APMs and to promote the alignment of incentives across payors.
In the 2020 Medicare physician fee schedule final rule, CMS revised coding, documentation guidelines, and increased the valuation for evaluation and management (“E/M”) office visit codes, beginning in 2021. Because the Medicare physician fee schedule is budget-neutral, any revaluation of E/M services that will increase spending by more than $20 million will require a budget neutrality adjustment. To increase values for the E/M codes while maintaining budget neutrality under the fee schedule, CMS will cut the values of other codes to make up the difference, beginning in 2021. In the 2021 Medicare physician fee schedule proposed rule, CMS announced these cuts to Medicare payments, including a proposed 9% cut to physical and occupational therapy services in 2021. Many providers have opposed the proposed cuts. Legislation was introduced in Congress that, if enacted, would waive the budget neutrality requirement with respect to the E/M codes for 2021 in order to avoid or minimize cuts to other code values. CMS is expected to release the 2021 final rule in November 2020 with final estimates regarding the impact on Medicare payments for physical and occupational therapy services.
Modifiers to Identify Services of Physical Therapy Assistants or Occupational Therapy Assistants
In the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule final rule for calendar year 2019, CMS established two new modifiers (CQ and CO) to identify services furnished in whole or in part by physical therapy assistants (“PTAs”) or occupational therapy assistants (“OTAs”). These modifiers were mandated by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, which requires that claims for outpatient therapy services furnished in whole or part by therapy assistants on or after January 1, 2020 include the appropriate modifier. CMS intends to use these modifiers to implement a payment differential that would reimburse services provided by PTAs and OTAs at 85% of the fee schedule rate beginning on January 1, 2022.In the final 2020 Medicare physician fee schedule rule, CMS clarified that when the physical therapist is involved for the entire duration of the service and the PTA provides skilled therapy alongside the physical therapist, the CQ modifier is not required. Also, when the same service (code) is furnished separately by the physical therapist and PTA, CMS will apply the de minimis standard to each 15-minute unit of codes, not on the total physical therapist and PTA time of the service, allowing the separate reporting, on two different claim lines, of the number of units to which the new modifiers apply and the number of units to which the modifiers do not apply.

Operating Statistics
The following table sets forth operating statistics for each of our segments for the periods presented. The operating statistics reflect data for the period of time we managed these operations. Our operating statistics include metrics we believe provide relevant insight about the number of facilities we operate, volume of services we provide to our patients, and average payment rates for services we provide. These metrics are utilized by management to monitor trends and performance in our businesses and therefore may be important to investors because management may assess our performance based in part on such metrics. Other healthcare providers may present similar statistics, and these statistics are susceptible to varying definitions. Our statistics as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled statistics of other companies.

The increase in net operating revenues was due toresulted from increases in both patient volume and net revenue per patient day.day during the three months ended September 30, 2020. Our patient days increased 5.8%8.1% to 279,063 days for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 258,089 days for the three months ended September 30, 2019,2019. Occupancy in our critical illness recovery hospitals increased to 71% during the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 243,891 days67% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The acquisition of three hospitals during 2019 contributed to the increase in patient days. We also experienced a 2.9% increase in patient days in our existing hospitals, which was offset in part by a decrease in patient days from the temporary closure of our hospital located in Panama City, Florida as a result of damage sustained from Hurricane Michael in October 2018. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, our net2019. Net revenue per patient day increased 4.0%4.1% to $1,773, as compared to $1,705$1,845 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is primarily driven by2020, compared to $1,773 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. We experienced increases in both our Medicare and non-Medicare net revenue per patient day. Our critical illness recovery hospitals experienced an increase in ourpatient acuity during the three months ended September 30, 2020, which contributed to the increase in Medicare net revenue per patient day.
Rehabilitation Hospital Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 19.9%8.5% to $188.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $173.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared2019. The increase in net operating revenues resulted from increases in both patient volume and net revenue per patient day during the three months ended September 30, 2020. Our patient days increased 7.0% to $144.6 million95,680 days for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Our patient days increased 12.9%2020, compared to 89,454 days for the three months ended September 30, 2019,2019. This increase occurred despite declines in volume experienced within certain of our rehabilitation hospitals in New Jersey and South Florida. These hospitals restricted admissions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic during the three months ended June 30, 2020. Although these restrictions were in place only temporarily, admissions have not recovered to the levels experienced prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and are lower than those experienced during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Occupancy in our rehabilitation hospitals increased to 82% during the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 79,232 days75% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in patient days was principally driven by our rehabilitation hospitals which recently commenced operations. We also experienced a 4.0% increase in patient days within our existing hospitals.2019. Our net revenue per patient day increased 9.0%3.0% to $1,775 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,724 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $1,582 for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 8.2%were $240.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $265.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019,2019. The decrease in net operating revenues was attributable to a decline in visits, which were 1,983,372 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $245.22,204,328 visits for the three months ended September 30, 2019. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, our outpatient rehabilitation clinics experienced less demand for services due to a decline in patient referrals from physicians, a reduction in workers’ compensation injury visits due to the closure of businesses, the suspension of elective surgeries at hospitals and other facilities which resulted in less demand for outpatient rehabilitation services, and social distancing practices resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Patient volume in our outpatient rehabilitation clinics has improved since April and May 2020 as restrictions imposed on individuals and businesses ease. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we experienced a 10.0% decrease in visits, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, while we experienced a 39.1% decrease in visits during the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. Our net revenue per visit was $104 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $103 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Our net revenue per visit benefited from improved contracted rates with some of our payors.

Concentra Segment.    Net operating revenues were $391.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in net operating revenues was attributable to an increase in visits, which increased 8.1% to 2,204,328 for the three months ended September 30, 2019,2020, compared to 2,039,462 visits for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in visits was due to new outpatient rehabilitation clinics and a 7.2% increase in visits within our existing clinics. This growth was offset in part by the sale of outpatient rehabilitation clinics to non-consolidating subsidiaries since September 30, 2018, which contributed 24,146 visits during the three months ended September 30, 2018. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we also experienced an increase in management fee revenues related to services provided to our non-consolidating subsidiaries. Our net revenue per visit was $103 for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
Concentra Segment.    Net operating revenues increased 4.3% to $421.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared2019.

Visits increased 5.6%2020, compared to 3,150,903 visits for the three months ended September 30, 2019,2019. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, we continued to experience a decline in volume resulting from employers furloughing their workforce and temporarily ceasing or significantly reducing their operations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, our centers experienced a reduction in workers’ compensation and employer services visits. Patient volume has improved since April and May 2020 as restrictions imposed on businesses ease. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we experienced a 10.3% decrease in visits, as compared to 2,984,832the three months ended September 30, 2019, while we experienced a 30.7% decrease in visits during the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. As of September 30, 2020, we have six centers that remain temporarily closed and 207 centers are operating at reduced hours. Our net operating revenues were also impacted by the sale of our Department of Veterans Affairs community-based outpatient clinic business, which occurred on September 1, 2020. Our net revenue per visit was $121 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Net revenue per visit was2020, compared to $120 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $124 for2019. During the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in2020, we experienced a higher net revenue per visit was principally due to an increaseincreases in employer servicesthe reimbursement rates payable pursuant to certain state fee schedules for workers’ compensation visits, which yield lower per visits rates.as well as increases in our contracted rates with some of our payors.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses consist principally of cost of services and general and administrative expenses. Our operating expenses were $1,216.5 million, or 85.4% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,217.5 million, or 87.4% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $1,117.0 million, or 88.2% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2018.2019. Our cost of services, a major component of which is labor expense, was $1,181.0 million, or 82.9% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,183.1 million, or 84.9% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $1,087.1 million, or 85.8% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2018.2019. The decrease in our operating expenses relative to our net operating revenues was principally due to the improved operating performance of our critical illness recovery hospital and rehabilitation hospital segments, as well as the cost reductions achieved by our Concentra segment. General and Concentra segments duringadministrative expenses were $35.5 million, or 2.5% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2019. General and administrative expenses were2020, compared to $34.4 million, or 2.5% of net operating revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $30.0 million, or 2.4% of net operating revenues, for2019.
Other Operating Income
For the three months ended September 30, 2018.

2020, we recognized a reduction to other operating income of $1.2 million. We recognize payments received under the Provider Relief Fund as other operating income as we incur losses of revenue and health care related expenses attributable to COVID-19. The reduction in other operating income resulted from changes in the terms and conditions associated with the acceptance of the Provider Relief Fund payments; these terms and conditions have changed from those which existed upon receipt of the payments. Refer to Note 14 – CARES Act of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for further information.
Adjusted EBITDA

The increaseincreases in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for our critical illness recovery hospital segment was primarilywere driven by increases in both patient volumesvolume and our net revenue per patient day, as discussed above under “Net Operating Revenues.” The decreaseincreases in ourAdjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin resulted from our newly acquired hospitalsoccurred despite the incurrence of additional operating at lower margins than our otherexpenses as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our critical illness recovery hospitals.hospitals have modified certain of their protocols in order to follow the guidelines and recommendations for patient treatment and for the protection of both our patients and staff members. This has resulted in increased labor costs, including increased contracted labor usage, as well as additional costs resulting from the purchase of personal protective equipment.

These increases occurred despite declines in the Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margins of certain of our existingrehabilitation hospitals in New Jersey and South Florida. These declines were caused by lower patient volume during the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, which is discussed above under “Net Operating Revenues.”
Outpatient Rehabilitation Segment.    Adjusted EBITDA increased 16.0%was $30.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $40.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $34.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018.2019.

In response to the decline in patient volume and in an effort to reduce operating expenses, we temporarily consolidated, where possible, the operations of centers which operate within close proximity to one another, reduced the operating hours of certain centers, and took other measures to reduce labor and other discretionary costs. These efforts resulted in increases in both our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA margin resulted principally from achieving lower relative operating costs across our combined Concentra and U.S. HealthWorks businesses.2020, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019.

During January and February 2020, our outpatient rehabilitation clinics experienced an 11.2% increase in visits, as compared to the same period in 2019. During the months of March through September 2020, we experienced a 22.8% decrease in visits, as compared to same period in 2019. The decline in volume, which was most significant during April and May 2020, was attributable to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Patient volume in our outpatient rehabilitation clinics has improved since April and May 2020 as restrictions imposed on individuals and businesses ease. Our net revenue per visit was $105 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $103 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Concentra credit facilities.  Select and Holdings are not parties to the Concentra credit facilities and are not obligors with respect to Concentra’s debt under such agreements. While this debt is non-recourse to Select and Holdings, it is included in our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2019, Concentra Inc. made a principal prepayment of $33.9 million associated with its term loans in accordance with the provision in the Concentra credit facilities that requires mandatory prepayments of term loans as a result of annual excess cash flow, as defined in the Concentra credit facilities.
On April 8, 2019, Concentra Inc. entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Concentra first lien credit agreement. Amendment No. 5, among other things, (i) extended the maturity date of the Concentra revolving facility from June 1, 2020 to June 1, 2021 and (ii) increased the aggregate commitments available under the Concentra revolving facility from $75.0 million to $100.0 million.

On September 20, 2019, Concentra Inc. entered into Amendment No. 6 to the Concentra first lien credit agreement. Amendment No. 6, among other things, (i) provided for an additional $100.0 million in term loans that, along with the existing Concentra first lien term loans, have a maturity date of June 1, 2022 and (ii) extended the maturity date of the revolving facility from June 1, 2021 to March 1, 2022. Concentra Inc. used the incremental borrowings under the Concentra first lien credit agreement to prepay in full all of its term loans outstanding under the Concentra second lien credit agreement on September 20, 2019.
At September 30, 2019, Concentra Inc. had outstanding borrowings under the Concentra credit facilities consisting of $1,240.3 million of Concentra term loans (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $12.7 million).2020, Concentra Inc. did not have any borrowings outstanding under the Concentra revolving facility.its first lien credit agreement dated June 1, 2015 (the “Concentra-JPM credit facilities”). At September 30, 2019,2020, Concentra Inc. had $87.3$85.7 million of availability under its revolving facility (the “Concentra-JPM revolving facility”) after giving effect to $12.7$14.3 million of outstanding letters of credit. Select and Holdings are not obligors with respect to Concentra Inc.’s debt under the Concentra-JPM credit facilities. At September 30, 2020, Concentra Inc. had outstanding borrowings under its term loan agreement with Select of $1,133.1 million.
Stock Repurchase Program.  Holdings’ board of directors has authorized a common stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $500.0 million worth of shares of its common stock. The program has been extended until December 31, 2020,2021, and will remain in effect until then, unless further extended or earlier terminated by the board of directors. Stock repurchases under this program may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, and at times and in such amounts as Holdings deems appropriate. Holdings funds this program with cash on hand and borrowings under the Select revolving facility. DuringHoldings did not repurchase shares during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019, Holdings repurchased 2,165,221 shares at a cost of approximately $33.2 million, an average cost per share of $15.32, which includes transaction costs.2020. Since the inception of the program through September 30, 2019,2020, Holdings has repurchased 38,089,34938,580,908 shares at a cost of approximately $347.9$356.6 million, or $9.13$9.24 per share, which includes transaction costs.
Liquidity.  WeThe COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected our operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The duration and extent of the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and liquidity depends on future developments that cannot be accurately predicted at this time; however, we believe our internally generated cash flows, and borrowing capacity under the Select and ConcentraConcentra-JPM credit facilities, and other measures to enhance our liquidity position that we have taken, as described below, will be sufficientallow us to finance our operations over the next twelve months. As of September 30, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $639.8 million, availability of $410.7 million under the Select revolving facility after giving effect to $39.3 million of outstanding letters of credit, and availability of $85.7 million under the Concentra-JPM revolving facility after giving effect to $14.3 million of outstanding letters of credit.
On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act, which is explained further within “Regulatory Changes,” was enacted. The CARES Act provided additional waivers, reimbursement, grants and other funds to assist health care providers during the COVID-19 pandemic, including $100.0 billion in appropriations for the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund, also referred to as the Provider Relief Fund, to be used for preventing, preparing, and responding to the coronavirus, and for reimbursing eligible health care providers for lost revenues and health care related expenses that are attributable to the coronavirus. We received approximately $120.8 million of payments under the Provider Relief Fund.

In accordance with the CARES Act, CMS expanded its current Accelerated and Advance Payment Program for Medicare providers. Under this program, qualified healthcare providers could receive advanced or accelerated payments from CMS. We received approximately $318.1 million of advanced payments under this program. The majority of these payments were received in April 2020. For our critical illness recovery hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals, repayment of amounts received under the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program were originally due 210 days after the advanced payment was issued, with CMS having the ability to recoup the advanced payments through future Medicare claims billed by our hospitals, beginning 121 days after the advanced payment was issued. As of September 30, 2020, CMS had not recouped any of the advanced payments provided to us under this program. On October 1, 2020, a short-term government funding bill was signed into law. This bill, among other things, extended the repayment terms for providers who received advanced payments under the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program. The bill modified the terms of repayment so that a provider can request no recoupment for one year after the advanced payment was issued, followed by a 25.0% recoupment of Medicare payments during the next 11 months, and 50.0% recoupment of Medicare payments during the last six months. Any amounts that remain unpaid after 29 months would be subject to a 4.0% interest rate. There is still uncertainty regarding how these modified terms will impact the timing of our repayment of the advances we have received.
The CARES Act further included a technical correction to allow for bonus depreciation on certain types of qualified property for tax years beginning January 1, 2018, and provided for an increase in the amounts allowed for interest expense deductions for tax years beginning January 1, 2019. As a result of these provisions, we expect to reduce our estimated tax payments during 2020 by approximately $20.0 million.
Additionally, we have taken other temporary measures to reduce operating costs and expenses. Many of these initiatives have been and will continue to be curtailed as we see improvement in patient volumes. These initiatives have included reducing labor costs through employee furloughs, salary and wage reductions for certain employees, and reducing the hours worked by part time employees, as well as limiting discretionary spending on capital expenditures. We are also deferring payment on our share of payroll taxes owed, as allowed by the CARES Act.
In October 2020, we entered into an interest rate cap transaction in order to reduce our interest rate exposure associated with the Select term loan. The interest rate cap will limit our 1-month LIBOR rate to 1.0% on $2.0 billion of principal outstanding under the Select term loan. We will pay a premium of 0.0916% on the notional amount. The agreement is effective March 31, 2021 for interest payments from and including April 30, 2021 through September 30, 2024.
At September 30, 2020, we were in compliance with each of our financial covenants. As of September 30, 2020, Select’s leverage ratio (its ratio of total indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA for the prior four consecutive fiscal quarters), which is required to be maintained at less than 7.00 to 1.00 under the terms of the Select revolving facility, was 3.66 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2020, we do not anticipate events or circumstances which would preclude us from complying with our financial covenants in the future or prevent us from making interest and principal payments when due. Select is not required to make further principal payments on the Select term loan until September 30, 2023 and its senior notes are due August 15, 2026. Concentra is not required to make further principal payments on its intercompany term loan with Select until its maturity on June 1, 2022. The Select and Concentra-JPM revolving credit facilities mature on March 6, 2024 and March 1, 2022, respectively. Our ability to comply with our financial covenants and obligations outlined within our debt agreements can be affected by various risks and uncertainties. Please refer to our risk factors as previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020for further discussion.
We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, may be funded from operating cash flows or other sources and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
Use of Capital Resources.  We may from time to time pursue opportunities to develop new joint venture relationships with significant health systems and other healthcare providers. We also intend to open new outpatient rehabilitation clinics and occupational health centers in local areas that we currently serve where we can benefit from existing referral relationships and brand awareness to produce incremental growth. In addition to our development activities, we may grow through opportunistic acquisitions.

At September 30, 2019,2020, Select had outstanding borrowings under the Select credit facilities consisting of $1,531.1the $2,103.4 million in Select term loansloan (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $22.2$18.6 million), which bear interest at variable rates.. At September 30, 2020, Select did not have any borrowings under the Select revolving facility.
At September 30, 2019, Concentra Inc. had outstanding borrowings under the Concentra credit facilities consisting of $1,240.3 million of Concentra term loans (excluding unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs of $12.7 million), which bear interest at variable rates.2020, Concentra Inc. did not have any borrowings under the ConcentraConcentra-JPM revolving facility.
As of September 30, 2019,2020, each 0.25% increase in market interest rates will impact the interest expense on Select’s and Concentra Inc.’sour variable rate debt by $6.9$5.3 million per annum.
In October 2020, we entered into an interest rate cap transaction. The interest rate cap will limit our 1-month LIBOR rate to 1.0% on $2.0 billion of principal outstanding under the Select term loan. The agreement is effective on March 31, 2021 after our current interest rate commitment period has ended. The interest rate cap will apply to interest payments from and including April 30, 2021 through September 30, 2024.
ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered in this report. Based on this evaluation, as of September 30, 2019,2020, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, including the accumulation and communication of disclosure to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure, are effective to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the relevant SEC rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that occurred during the third quarter ended September 30, 2019,2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their goals under all potential future conditions.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is a party to various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (some of which are not insured), and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations in the ordinary course of its business. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, proceedings, and regulatory and other governmental audits and investigations. These matters could potentially subject the Company to sanctions, damages, recoupments, fines, and other penalties. The Department of Justice, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”),CMS, or other federal and state enforcement and regulatory agencies may conduct additional investigations related to the Company’s businesses in the future that may, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.
To address claims arising out of the Company’s operations, the Company maintains professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance coverages through a number of different programs that are dependent upon such factors as the state where the Company is operating and whether the operations are wholly owned or are operated through a joint venture. For the Company’s wholly owned operations, the Company currently maintains insurance coverages under a combination of policies with a total annual aggregate limit of up to $40.0 million. The Company’s insurance for the professional liability coverage is written on a “claims-made” basis, and its commercial general liability coverage is maintained on an “occurrence” basis. These coverages apply after a self-insured retention limit is exceeded. For the Company’s joint venture operations, the Company has numerous programsdesigned a separate insurance program that are designed to respondresponds to the risks of the specific joint venture. The Company’s joint ventures are insured under a master program with an annual aggregate limit under these programs rangesof up to $80.0 million, subject to a sublimit aggregate ranging from $5.0$23.0 million to $20.0 million.$33.0 million for each specific joint venture. The policies are generally written on a “claims-made” basis. Each of these programs has either a deductible or self-insured retention limit. The Company reviews its insurance program annually and may make adjustments to the amount of insurance coverage and self-insured retentions in future years. The Company also maintains umbrella liability insurance covering claims which, due to their nature or amount, are not covered by or not fully covered by the Company’s other insurance policies. These insurance policies also do not generally cover punitive damages and are subject to various deductibles and policy limits. Significant legal actions, as well as the cost and possible lack of available insurance, could subject the Company to substantial uninsured liabilities. In the Company’s opinion, the outcome of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Healthcare providers are subject to lawsuits under the qui tam provisions of the federal False Claims Act. Qui tam lawsuits typically remain under seal (hence, usually unknown to the defendant) for some time while the government decides whether or not to intervene on behalf of a private qui tam plaintiff (known as a relator) and take the lead in the litigation. These lawsuits can involve significant monetary damages and penalties and award bounties to private plaintiffs who successfully bring the suits. The Company is and has been a defendant in these cases in the past, and may be named as a defendant in similar cases from time to time in the future.
Evansville Litigation.    On October 19, 2015, the plaintiff‑relators filed a Second Amended Complaint in United States of America, ex rel. Tracy Conroy, Pamela Schenk and Lisa Wilson v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Specialty Hospital-Evansville, LLC (“SSH‑Evansville”), Select Employment Services, Inc., and Dr. Richard Sloan. The case is a civil action filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana by private plaintiff‑relators on behalf of the United States under the federal False Claims Act. The plaintiff‑relators are the former CEO and two former case managers at SSH‑Evansville, and the defendants currently include the Company, SSH‑Evansville, a subsidiary of the Company serving as common paymaster for its employees, and a physician who practices at SSH‑Evansville. The plaintiff‑relators allege that SSH‑Evansville discharged patients too early or held patients too long, improperly discharged patients to and readmitted them from short stay hospitals, up‑coded diagnoses at admission, and admitted patients for whom long‑term acute care was not medically necessary. They also allege that the defendants engaged in retaliation in violation of federal and state law. The Second Amended Complaint replaced a prior complaint that was filed under seal on September 28, 2012 and served on the Company on February 15, 2013, after a federal magistrate judge unsealed it on January 8, 2013. All deadlines in the case had been stayed after the seal was lifted in order to allow the government time to complete its investigation and to decide whether or not to intervene. On June 19, 2015, the United States Department of Justice notified the District Court of its decision not to intervene in the case.
In December 2015, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on multiple grounds, including that the action is disallowed by the False Claims Act’s public disclosure bar, which disqualifies qui tam actions that are based on fraud already publicly disclosed through enumerated sources, unless the relator is an original source, and that the plaintiff‑relators did not plead their claims with sufficient particularity, as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.



Thereafter, the United States filed a notice asserting a veto of the defendants’ use of the public disclosure bar for claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010, which was based on certain statutory changes to the public disclosure bar language included in the Affordable Care Act. On September 30, 2016, the District Court partially granted and partially denied the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss. It ruled that the plaintiff‑relators alleged substantially the same conduct as had been publicly disclosed and that the plaintiff-relators are not original sources, so that the public disclosure bar requires dismissal of all non‑retaliation claims arising from conduct before March 23, 2010. The District Court also ruled that the statutory changes to the public disclosure bar gave the United States the power to veto its applicability to claims arising from conduct on and after March 23, 2010, and therefore did not dismiss those claims based on the public disclosure bar. However, the District Court ruled that the plaintiff‑relators did not plead certain of their claims relating to interrupted stay manipulation and premature discharging of patients with the requisite particularity, and dismissed those claims. The District Court declined to dismiss the plaintiff-relators’ claims arising from conduct from and after March 23, 2010 relating to delayed discharging of patients and up-coding and the plaintiff-relators’ retaliation claims. The plaintiff-relators then proposed a case management plan seeking nationwide discovery involving all of the Company’s LTCHs for the period from March 23, 2010 through the present and allowing discovery that would facilitate the use of statistical sampling to prove liability, which the defendants opposed. In April 2018, a U.S. magistrate judge ruled that plaintiff‑relators’ discovery will be limited to only SSH-Evansville for the period from March 23, 2010 through September 30, 2016, and that the plaintiff‑relators will be required to prove the fraud that they allege on a claim-by-claim basis, rather than using statistical sampling. The plaintiff-relators appealed this decision to the district judge who, in March 2019, affirmed the decision of the magistrate judge regarding the geographic and temporal scope of the case, but ruled that the question of statistical sampling is not ripe for review.
In October 2019, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the United States government and the plaintiff-relators. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to make payments to the government, the plaintiff-relators and their counsel. Such payments, in the aggregate, are immaterial to the Company’s financial statements.  In the settlement agreement, the government and the plaintiff-relators released all defendants from liability for all conduct alleged in the complaint, and the Company admitted no liability or wrongdoing.
Wilmington Litigation.    On January 19, 2017, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware unsealed a qui tam Complaint in United States of America and State of Delaware ex rel. Theresa Kelly v. Select Specialty Hospital-Wilmington, Inc. (“SSH‑Wilmington”), Select Specialty Hospitals, Inc., Select Employment Services, Inc., Select Medical Corporation, and Crystal Cheek, No. 16‑347‑LPS. The Complaint was initially filed under seal in May 2016 by a former chief nursing officer at SSH‑WilmingtonSSH-Wilmington and was unsealed after the United States filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention in January 2017. The corporate defendants were served in March 2017. In the complaint, the plaintiff‑relatorplaintiff-relator alleges that the Select defendants and an individual defendant, who is a former health information manager at SSH‑Wilmington,SSH-Wilmington, violated the False Claims Act and the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act based on allegedly falsifying medical practitioner signatures on medical records and failing to properly examine the credentials of medical practitioners at SSH‑Wilmington.SSH-Wilmington. In response to the Select defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint, in May 2017 the plaintiff-relator filed an Amended Complaint asserting the same causes of action. The Select defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint based on numerous grounds, including that the Amended Complaint did not plead any alleged fraud with sufficient particularity, failed to plead that the alleged fraud was material to the government’s payment decision, failed to plead sufficient facts to establish that the Select defendants knowingly submitted false claims or records, and failed to allege any reverse false claim. In March 2018, the District Court dismissed the plaintiff‑relator’splaintiff-relator’s claims related to the alleged failure to properly examine medical practitioners’ credentials, her reverse false claims allegations, and her claim that defendants violated the Delaware False Claims and Reporting Act. It denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss claims that the allegedly falsified medical practitioner signatures violated the False Claims Act. Separately, the District Court dismissed the individual defendant due to plaintiff-relator’s failure to timely serve the amended complaint upon her.


55

In March 2017, the plaintiff-relator initiated a second action by filing a Complaint in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware in Theresa Kelly v. Select Medical Corporation, Select Employment Services, Inc., and SSH‑Wilmington,SSH-Wilmington, C.A. No. N17C-03-293 CLS. The Delaware Complaint alleges that the defendants retaliated against her in violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act for reporting the same alleged violations that are the subject of the federal Amended Complaint. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss, or alternatively to stay, the Delaware Complaint based on the pending federal Amended Complaint and the failure to allege facts to support a violation of the Delaware Whistleblowers’ Protection Act.  In January 2018, the Court stayed the Delaware Complaint pending the outcome of the federal case.
The Company intends to vigorously defend these actions, but at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.

Contract Therapy Subpoena. On May 18, 2017, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey seeking various documents principally relating to the Company’s contract therapy division, which contracted to furnish rehabilitation therapy services to residents of skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”)SNFs and other providers. The Company operated its contract therapy division through a subsidiary until March 31, 2016, when the Company sold the stock of the subsidiary. The subpoena seeks documents that appear to be aimed at assessing whether therapy services were furnished and billed in compliance with Medicare SNF billing requirements, including whether therapy services were coded at inappropriate levels and whether excessive or unnecessary therapy was furnished to justify coding at higher paying levels. The U.S. Attorney’s Office has indicated that the subpoena was issued in connection with a qui tam lawsuit. The Company has produced documents in response to the subpoena and intends to fully cooperate with this investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.
Ann Arbor Complaint.On May 12, 2020, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan unsealed qui tam Complaints in United States of America and State of Michigan ex rel. Neal Elkin v. Select Medical Holdings Corp., Select Medical, and SSH-Ann Arbor, No. 12-cv-13984. An initial Complaint was filed under seal in September 2012 and a First Amended Complaint was filed under seal in September 2019. Both Complaints were unsealed after the United States and State of Michigan filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention in May 2020. In the First Amended Complaint, the plaintiff-relator, a physician formerly practicing at SSH-Ann Arbor, alleges that the defendants had a policy to keep respiratory patients on ventilators longer than medically necessary in order to increase reimbursement, and that, after he complained of this practice, SSH-Ann Arbor retaliated by refusing to assign new patients to him. The First Amended Complaint has not yet been served on the defendants. If the plaintiff-relator serves the First Amended Complaint and pursues this action, the Company intends to vigorously defend this action; however, at this time the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.
Oklahoma City Subpoena.On August 24, 2020, the Company and SSH–Oklahoma City received Civil Investigative Demands from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Oklahoma seeking responses to interrogatories and the production of various documents principally relating to the documentation, billing and reviews of medical services furnished to patients at SSH-Oklahoma City. The Company does not know whether the subpoena has been issued in connection with a qui tam lawsuit or in connection with possible civil, criminal or administrative proceedings by the government. The Company is producing documents in response to the subpoena and intends to fully cooperate with this investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the timing and outcome of this matter.
