Legislative
and Financial
Overview


Reimbursement Outlook
Overview and Context
This year, like every year, Congress is considering
changes to Medicare to help pay for the cost of avoiding
steep cuts to physician payments (SGR/“Doc Fix”).
There are several key considerations this year.
Key Considerations
Only half of Kindred’s revenue is directly affected by SGR
outcome
Policymakers recognize that post-acute providers have
contributed to Medicare deficit reduction disproportionately
to Medicare spending for post-acute care and did not
benefit from Affordable Care Act expanded coverage
Policymakers prefer “reform-oriented”
changes to reduce
spending versus cuts
Readmission penalties for all post-acute care
providers
Rate equalization/site neutrality

Overview of Key Payment Provisions
in LTAC Criteria Legislation
Definition of Patients Eligible for LTAC Rate
Patients are eligible for payment under the current LTAC PPS if they meet either one of two criteria:  patients
admitted from an acute care hospital with 3 or more days in an acute care hospital Intensive Care Unit (ICU);
or
patients
receiving
“prolonged
mechanical
ventilation”
(greater
than
96
hours)
in
the
LTAC
hospital
Many new patients today who do not use LTAC services will qualify under the new criteria.  These patients are
high
acuity,
have
extended
stays
in
acute
care
hospitals
and
are
at
high
risk
for
re-hospitalization.
Definition
of
Patients
Eligible
for
“Site
Neutral”
Rate
Other
medically
complex
patients
may
still
be
admitted
to
LTACs
and
receive
a
“site
neutral”
rate
that
is
either
at
LTAC cost or at a per diem rate “comparable”
to payments made to acute care hospitals under the IPPS payment
system (and capped at the IPPS rate)
The
length
of
stay
for
these
patients
and
Medicare
Advantage
patients
will
not
count
towards
the
25-day
LOS
requirement
Effective Date and Phase-In
Effective date: Two-year Phase-in of criteria begins after October 1, 2015, linked to each LTAC’s cost-reporting
period
All Kindred LTACs have cost-reporting periods that begin September 1 of each year; phase-in of new criteria
would not begin for Kindred LTACs until September 1, 2016, and will not be fully effective until September 2018
During
phase-in,
cases
receiving
“site
neutral”
rate
get
paid
50%
based
on
current
LTAC
rate
and
50%
based
on
the “site neutral”
rate
16
The new criteria would not become fully effective until September 1, 2018 for Kindred LTACS

Estimated Adjusted Debt to EBITDAR is computed by dividing a numerator comprised of combined long-term debt at closing plus estimated
combined annual rent expense multiplied by six, less unrestricted cash, by a denominator comprised of full-year estimated EBITDAR.  Our ability to
achieve our goals is subject to uncertainties; see Forward-Looking Statements on slide 2 of this presentation.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Measures
In
addition
to
the
results
provided
in
accordance
with
generally
accepted
accounting
principles
(“GAAP”),
Kindred
Healthcare,
Inc.
(“Kindred”
or the "Company") has provided information in this presentation to compute certain non-GAAP measurements for the three and twelve
months ended September 30 2014, and the for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. A reconciliation of the non-
GAAP measurements to the GAAP measurements is included in this presentation.
This presentation also includes financial measures referred to as operating income, or earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation,
amortization and rent (“EBITDAR”), and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"). The Company's
management uses EBITDAR or EBITDA as meaningful measures of operational performance in addition to other measures. The Company uses
EBITDAR or EBITDA to assess the relative performance of its operating divisions as well as the employees that operate these businesses. In
addition,
the
Company
believes
these
measurements
are
important
because
securities
analysts
and
investors
use
these
measurements
to
compare the Company's performance to other companies in the healthcare industry. The Company believes that income (loss) from
continuing
operations
is
the
most
comparable
GAAP
measure.
Readers
of
the
Company's
financial
information
should
consider
income
(loss)
from continuing operations as an important measure of the Company's financial performance because it provides the most complete measure
of its performance. EBITDAR or EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures based
upon GAAP as an indicator of operating performance. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAR or Adjusted EBITDA to income (loss) from
continuing operations is included in this presentation and exclude the effects of certain charges listed herein. 
We believe that the presentation of these measurements included in this presentation provides useful information to investors with which to
analyze Kindred’s and Gentiva’s operating trends and performance. Further, we believe these measurements facilitate company-to-company
operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, taxation and the age and
depreciation of property and equipment, which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. In
addition,
we
believe
that
these
measurements
are
frequently
used
by
securities
analysts,
investors
and
other
interested
parties
in
their
evaluation of companies.
