SELECT MEDICAL HOLDINGS CORPORATION AND SELECT MEDICAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation
Select Medical Corporation (“Select”) was formed in December 1996 and commenced operations during February 1997 upon the completion of its first acquisition. Select Medical Holdings Corporation (“Holdings”) was formed in October 2004 for the purpose of effectingaffecting a leveraged buyout of Select, which was a publicly traded entity. Holdings was originally owned by an investor group that includedincludes Welsh, Carson, Anderson, & Stowe, IX, LP (“Welsh Carson”), Thoma Cressey Bravo (“Thoma Cressey”) and members of the Company’s senior management. On February 24, 2005, Select merged with a subsidiary of Holdings, which resulted in Select becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings (the “Merger”). On September 30, 2009 Holdings completed its initial public offering of common stock at a price to the public of $10.00 per share. Generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) require that any amounts recorded or incurred (such as goodwill and compensation expense) by the parent as a result of the Merger or for the benefit of the subsidiary be “pushed down” and recorded in Select’s consolidated financial statements. Holdings and Select and their subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.” The consolidated financial statements of Holdings include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiary Select. Holdings conducts substantially all of its business through Select and its subsidiaries.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 and for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 20102011 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 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, 2010March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2010.2011.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted consistent with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), although the Company believes the disclosure is adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 20092010 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 17, 2010.9, 2011.
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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) — Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“Update 2010-06”), which amends the guidance on fair value to add new requirements for disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The Company adopted update 2010-06 on January 1, 2010, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will bewas effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years.2010. The adoption of Update 2010-06 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company currently has no Level 3 measurements.
3. Purchase of Regency Hospital Company, L.L.C.
On September 1, 2010, Select completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding equity securities of Regency Hospital Company, L.L.C. (“Regency”) an operator of long-term acute care hospitals, for $210.0 million, including certain assumed liabilities. The amount paid at closing was reduced by $33.1 million for certain assumed liabilities, payments to employees, payments for the purchase of minority interests and an estimated working capital adjustment. The purchase price is subject to a final settlement of net working capital. Regency operated a network of 23 long-term acute care hospitals located in nine states. The results of operations of Regency have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since September 1, 2010 and consisted of net operating revenues of $23.4 million and pre-tax losses of $4.2 million. Regency’s operations have been included in the specialty hospitals segment.
The purchase price was allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon preliminary estimates of fair value, with the remainder allocated to goodwill. The Company is in the process of completing its valuation analysis to identify and determine the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Thus, the final allocation of the purchase price may differ from preliminary estimates used at September 30, 2010. The Company expects to finalize the allocation of the purchase price prior to December 31, 2010. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 350 Intangibles — Goodwill and other, no amortization of goodwill has been recorded. The factors that were considered when deciding to acquire Regency and determining the purchase price that resulted in goodwill included the historical earnings of the acquired long-term acute care hospitals, general and administrative cost saving opportunities that could be achieved by utilizing the Company’s infrastructure and the benefits that could be achieved with patients and commercial payors by having a larger network of long-term acute care hospitals.

7.5. Fair Value
Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures its interest rate swaps at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company determines the fair value of its interest rate swaps based on financial models that consider current and future market interest rates and adjustments for non-performance risk. The Company considers those inputs utilized in the valuation process to be Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy is defined as inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was a liability of $1.0 million at September 30, 2010 and $14.1 million at December 31, 2009. These liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheet as current liabilities in accrued other.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, notes payable and long-term debt. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.
The carrying value of Select’s senior secured credit facility was $483.1$506.8 million and $503.1$547.3 million at December 31, 20092010 and September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, respectively. The fair value of Select’s senior secured credit facility was $471.0$497.7 million and $493.4$535.3 million at December 31, 20092010 and September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, respectively. The fair value of Select’s senior secured credit facility was based on quoted market prices for this debt in the syndicated loan market.

The carrying value of the 75/8% 5/8% senior subordinated notes was $611.5 million at both December 31, 20092010 and September 30, 2010.March 31, 2011. The fair value of the 75/8% 5/8% senior subordinated notes was $593.2$616.1 million and $596.2$622.2 million at December 31, 20092010 and September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, respectively. The fair value of this registered debt was based on quoted market prices.
The carrying value of the senior floating rate notes was $167.3 million at both December 31, 20092010 and September 30, 2010.March 31, 2011. The fair value of the senior floating rate notes was $155.6$156.0 million and $145.8$164.4 million at December 31, 20092010 and September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, respectively. The fair value of this registered debt was based on quoted market prices.
Interest Rate Swaps
The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. The Company’s objective is to manage the impact of the interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows. At September 30, 2010, Select has one outstanding interest swap contract that it entered into on November 16, 2007 to hedge Select’s interest rate risk for a portion of its term loans under its senior secured credit facility. The effective date of the swap transaction was November 23, 2007. The swap is designated as a cash flow hedge of forecasted LIBOR based variable rate interest payments. The notional amount of the interest rate swap is $100.0 million, and the underlying variable rate debt is associated with Select’s senior secured credit facility. The weighted average variable interest rate of the debt was 3.41% and the weighted average fixed rate of the swap was 7.34% at September 30, 2010. The swap is for a period of three years, and matures on November 22, 2010.
For the portion of swaps that qualify as a hedge, the interest rate swaps are reflected at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet. A gain of $2.5 million, net of tax, was recorded in Holdings’ stockholders’ equity as a component of other comprehensive loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. A gain of $8.5 million, net of tax, was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Select recorded a gain of $0.8 million, net of tax, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, and a gain of $8.5 million, net of tax, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 related to the swaps in Select’s stockholder’s equity as a component of other comprehensive loss. The Company tests for ineffectiveness whenever financial statements are issued or at least every three months using the Hypothetical Derivative Method. See also Note 8,Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.
8. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
Included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2010 were cumulative losses of $8.9 million (net of tax) and $0.4 million (net of tax), respectively, on interest rate swaps accounted for as cash flow hedges.
9. Stockholders’ Equity
Participating Preferred Stock
Upon completion of Holdings’ initial public offering of common stock on September 30, 2009, Holdings’ outstanding participating preferred stock converted into a total of 64,276,974 common shares. Each share of preferred stock converted into a number of shares of common stock determined by:
dividing the original cost of a share of the preferred stock ($26.90 per share of preferred stock) plus all accrued and unpaid dividends through September 30, 2009 thereon less the amount of any previously declared and paid special dividends, or the “accreted value” of such preferred stock, by the initial public offering price per share net of any expenses incurred and underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed in connection with the offering; plus
.30 shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock owned.

11.7. Income (loss) per Common Share
The Company applies the two-class method for calculating and presenting income (loss) per common share. The two-class method is an earnings (loss) allocation formula that determines earnings (loss) per share for each class of stock participation rights in undistributed earnings. Effective January 1, 2009 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) clarified that share based payment awards that have not yet vested meet the definition of a participating security provided the right to receive the dividend is non-forfeitable and non-contingent. Participating securities are defined as securities that participate in dividends with common stock according to a predetermined formula. These participating securities should be included in the computation of basic earnings (loss) per share under the two class method. Based upon the clarification made by FASB, the Company concluded that its non-vested restricted stock awards meet the definition of a participating security and should be included in the Company’s computation of basic earnings (loss) per share.

Litigation
To cover claims arising out of the operations of the Company’s specialty hospitals and outpatient rehabilitation facilities, the Company maintains professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance. 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.

These lawsuits can involve significant monetary damages and penalties and award bounties to private plaintiffs who successfully bring the suits. The Company 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.

This report 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,‘believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “target,” “estimate,“ estimate,” “project,” “intend”“intend,” and similar expressions. These statements include, among others, statements regarding our expected business outlook, anticipated financial and operating results, our business strategy and means to implement our strategy, our objectives, the amount and timing of capital expenditures, the likelihood of our success in expanding our business, financing plans, budgets, working capital needs and sources of liquidity.
Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of performance.performances. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding our services, the expansion of our services, competitive conditions and general economic conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Forward-looking statements also involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
additional changes in government reimbursement for our services, including changes that will result from the expiration of the moratorium for long term acute care hospitals established by the Medicare, Medicaid and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act may result in a reduction in net operating revenues, an increase in costs and a reduction in profitability;
the failure of our specialty hospitals to maintain their Medicare certifications as such may cause our net operating revenues and profitability to decline;
the failure of our facilities 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;
future acquisitions or joint ventures (such as the acquisition of Regency Hospital Company, LLC) may prove difficult or unsuccessful, use significant resources or expose us to unforeseen liabilities;
private third-party payors for our services may undertake future cost containment initiatives that 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 or therapists could increase our operating costs significantly;
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;

30


the effect of claims asserted against us or lack of adequate available insurance could subject us to substantial uninsured liabilities;liabilities and in the future we may not be able to obtain insurance at a reasonable price;and
other factors discussed from time to time in our filings with the SEC,Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” of our Annual Reportannual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.2010.

Investors should also be aware that while we do, from time to time, communicate with securities analysts, it is against our policy to disclose to security analysts any material non-public information or other confidential commercial information. Accordingly, stockholders should not assume that we agree with any statement or report issued by any analyst irrespective of the content of the statement or report.

Overview
We believe that we are one of the largest operators of both specialty hospitals and outpatient rehabilitation clinics in the United States based on number of facilities. As of September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, we operated 111110 long term acute care hospitals and sixeight inpatient rehabilitation facilities in 28 states, and 950945 outpatient rehabilitation clinics in 3635 states and the District of Columbia. We also provide medical rehabilitation services on a contracted basis to nursing homes, hospitals, assisted living and senior care centers, schools and work sites. We began operations in 1997 under the leadership of our current management team.
We manage our Company through two business segments, our specialty hospitalshospital segment and our outpatient rehabilitation segment. We had net operating revenues of $1,752.9$693.2 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2010.March 31, 2011. Of this total, we earned approximately 70%75% of our net operating revenues from our specialty hospitals and approximately 30%25% from our outpatient rehabilitation business.business, compared to 70% and 30% respectively in the comparable period in 2010. The increase in the relative portion of our net operating revenues generated from our specialty hospitals resulted from the hospitals added through our Regency Hospital Company, L.L.C (“Regency”) acquisition on September 1, 2010. Our specialty hospital segment consists of hospitals designed to serve the needs of long term stay acute patients and hospitals designed to serve patients that require intensive inpatient medical rehabilitation care. Patients are typically admitted to our long term acute care hospitals from general acute care hospitals. These patients have specialized needs, and serious and often complex medical conditions such as respiratory failure, neuromuscular disorders, traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries, strokes, non-healing wounds, cardiac disorders, renal disorders and cancer. Our outpatient rehabilitation segment consists of clinics and contract services that provide physical, occupational and speech rehabilitation services. Our outpatient rehabilitation patients are typically diagnosed with musculoskeletal impairments that restrict their ability to perform normal activities of daily living.

The amount paid at closing was reduced by $33.1 million for certain assumed liabilities, paymentstender offer and consent solicitation are conditioned on Select’s entry into a new senior secured credit facility. Select expects to employees, payments for the purchase of minority interests and an estimated working capital adjustment. The purchase price is subject touse a final settlement of net working capital. Regency operated a network of 23 long-term acute care hospitals located in nine states.
During the three months ended September 30, 2010, our general and administrative costs include approximately $2.1 million of costs related to the transition of management functions and closingportion of the Regency corporate office. The transition and closing of the Regency corporate office will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2010. We anticipate incurring approximately $2.0 million to complete the closure during the fourth quarter of 2010. Additionally, we expect to record a restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of approximately $5.0 million related to lease termination costs associated with Regency’s corporate headquarters.
Extension of Revolving Credit Facility
On June 7, 2010, we entered into an amendment to ourproceeds from such new senior secured credit facility that extendedto purchase the maturity of our $300.0 million revolving credit facility from February 24, 2011tendered and accepted 7 5/8% senior subordinated notes and to August 22, 2013. The applicable margin percentage and commitment fee for revolving loans have increased and are determined based on a pricing grid whereby changes in the leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, results in changes to the applicable margin percentage. Under the pricing grid, the applicable margin percentage for revolving ABR loans ranges from 2% per annum to 3% per annum, the applicable margin percentage for revolving Eurodollar loans ranges from 3% per annum to 4% per annum, and the commitment fee rate for extended revolving commitments ranges from 0.375% to 0.75%.retire Holdings’ 10% senior subordinated notes.
Summary Financial Results
ThirdFirst Quarter Ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011
For the three months ended September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, our net operating revenues increased 7.8%,18.5% to $588.3$693.2 million compared to $545.6$584.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. This increase in net operating revenues resulted principally from ana 26.3% increase in our specialty hospital net operating revenues. The increase in our specialty hospital net operating revenue is principally due to (1) the acquisition of Regency, (2) growth in the hospitals opened as of January 1, 2009 and operated by us throughout both periods and (3) the hospitals opened and acquired in 2009. We had income from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2010 of $42.0 million compared to $32.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Holdings’ interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $27.7 million compared to $33.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Select’s interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $20.8 million compared to $25.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.The decrease in interest expense for both Holdings and Select was attributable to our repayment of outstanding debt with a portion of the proceeds Holding’s initial public offering of common stock in September 2009 and lower interest rates that resulted from the maturation of interest rate swaps that carried higher fixed interest rates.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, our net operating revenues increased 5.2% to $1,752.9 million compared to $1,666.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This increase in net operating revenues resulted from a 6.8% increase in our specialty hospital net operating revenue and a 1.7% increase in our outpatient rehabilitation net operating revenue. The increase in our specialty hospital net operating revenue is principallyprimarily due to (1) the acquisition of Regency (2) growth in the hospitals opened and acquired as of Januaryon September 1, 2009 and operated by us throughout both periods and (3) the hospitals opened and acquired in 2009. The increase in our outpatient rehabilitation net operating revenue is principally due to an increase in both our contract services based revenue and increased revenues in our rehabilitation clinics.2010. We had income from operations for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 of $187.2$87.6 million compared to $165.9$72.6 million for the ninethree months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in income from operations is primarily due to the Regency hospitals acquired on September 30, 2009.1, 2010. Holdings’ interest expense for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 was $87.0$25.7 million compared to $101.8$30.0 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010.

The decrease in interest expense for both Holdings and Select was attributable to a reduction in outstanding debt balances that occurred throughout 2009 and lowerour average interest ratesrate that resulted from that maturationthe expiration of interest rate swaps in 2010 that carried higher fixed interest rates.
Cash flow from operations provided $110.3used $5.0 million of cash for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 for Holdings and $135.8provided $7.7 million of cash for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 for Select. The difference between Holdings and Select primarily relates to interest payments on Holdings’ senior subordinated notes and senior floating rate notes.
Regulatory Changes
In the lastpast few years, there have been significant regulatory changes that have affected our net operating revenues and, in some cases, caused us to change our operating models and strategies. The following is a discussion of significantrecent regulatory changes that have occurred since we filedaffected our Annual Report on Form 10-Kresults of operations for the yearthree months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2009 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 17, 2010.2011. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20092010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 9, 2011 contains a more detailed discussion of the regulations that affect our business in Part I — Business — Government Regulations, and the information below should be read in connection with that more detailed discussion.

Health Reform Legislation
On March 23, 2010, President Obama signed into law H.R. 3590,Federal agencies, including the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”), continue to implement provisions of the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act” (“PPACA”). The PPACA expands access to health insurance through subsidies, coverage mandates and other insurance market reforms. In addition, PPACA makes dramatic changes to the Medicare and Medicaid programs by adopting numerous initiatives addressing, among other things, reductions in healthcare spending, patient safety incentives and protections against fraud and abuse of federal healthcare programs. The PPACA adopts significant changes to the Medicare program that are particularly relevant to long term acute care hospitals (“LTCHs”), inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRFs”) and outpatient rehabilitation services. As part of health reform legislation, President Obama also signed H.R. 4872, the “Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010,” which made some limited but important changes to the PPACA.
Extension of Changes Made byWe have included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007
The PPACA includesyear ended December 31, 2010 a two-year extension to Sections 114(c) and (d)detailed discussion of the Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007 (“SCHIP Extension Act”),PPACA provisions that affect our business, as amendedwell as regulatory initiatives adopted by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5) (“ARRA”). The two-year extension applies the relief granted by Section 114(c)CMS in response to the “25% Rule” payment adjustment, the one-time budget neutrality adjustment and the very short stay outlier payment adjustment. The two-year extension also applies to the moratorium on new LTCHs and new LTCH beds adopted in Section 114(d) of the SCHIP Extension Act. These changes are described further below.

33


25% Rule
The 25% Rule is a downward payment adjustment that applies to Medicare patients discharged from LTCHs who were admitted from a co-located (“host”) hospital or a non-co-located hospital and who exceed applicable percentage thresholds of discharged Medicare patients. The following table describes the types of LTCHs and the relief they have received under the SCHIP Extension Act as amended by the ARRA and PPACA, from the payment adjustment for these discharges:

One-Time Budget Neutrality Adjustment
The regulations governing the prospective payment system specifically applicable to LTCHs, referred to as “LTCH-PPS,” give the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) the ability to make a one-time adjustment to the standard federal rate to correct any “significant difference between actual payments and estimated payments for the first year” of LTCH-PPS. In the rate year 2009 LTCH-PPS final rule, CMS estimated this one-time adjustment would result in a negative adjustment of 3.75% to the base rate. The SCHIP Extension Act precluded CMS from implementing the one-time prospective adjustment to the LTCH standard amount for a period of three years. PPACA extends by two years the stay on CMS’s ability to adopt a one-time budget neutrality adjustment to LTCH-PPS. PPACA prohibits such a one-time adjustment before December 29, 2012.
Short Stay Outlier Policy
The SCHIP Extension Act prevented CMS from applying the so-called very short stay outlier policy that was added to LTCH-PPS in the 2008 rate year update published on May 11, 2007. This policy would result in a payment equivalent to the short-term care hospital rate for cases with a length of stay that is less than the average length of stay plus one standard deviation of a case with the same diagnosis related group under the inpatient prospective payment system, regardless of the clinical considerations for admission to the LTCH or the average length of stay an LTCH must satisfy for Medicare certification. The SCHIP Extension Act precluded CMS from implementing the very short stay outlier policy for a period of three years. PPACA extends this prohibition by two years. CMS may not apply the very short stay outlier policy before December 29, 2012.

35


Moratorium on New LTCHs and New LTCH Beds
The SCHIP Extension Act imposed a moratorium on the establishment and classification of new LTCHs, LTCH satellite facilities and LTCH beds in existing LTCHs or satellite facilities. PPACA extends this moratorium by two years. The moratorium will now expire on December 28, 2012.
Medicare Quality Reporting
The PPACA requires that CMS establish new quality data reporting programs for LTCHs and IRFs. By rate year 2014, CMS is required to select and implement quality measures for these providers. These programs are mandatory. If a provider fails to report on the selected quality measures, it will see its reimbursement reduced by 2% of the annual market basket update. The reduction can result in payment rates less than the prior year. However, the reduction will not carry over into the subsequent rate years. CMS is required to establish the quality measures applicable to rate year 2014 no later than October 1, 2012.
Medicare Market Basket Adjustments
The PPACA institutes a market basket payment adjustment to LTCHs. In rate year 2010, LTCHs are subject to a market basket reduction of minus 0.25% for discharges occurring after April 1, 2010. In rate year 2011, LTCHs are subject to a market basket reduction of minus 0.5%. There will be a slightly smaller 0.1% market basket reduction for LTCHs in rate years 2012 and 2013. Rate year 2014 the market basket update will be reduced by 0.3%. Rate years 2015 and 2016 the market basket update will be reduced by 0.2%. Finally, in rate years 2017-2019, the market basket update will be reduced by 0.75%. The PPACA specifically allows these market basket reductions to result in less than a 0% payment update and payment rates that are less than the prior year.
The PPACA also implements a market basket payment adjustment for IRFs. For fiscal years 2010 and 2011, IRFs are subject to a market basket reduction of minus 0.25%. For fiscal years 2012 and 2013, the reduction is 0.1%. For fiscal year 2014, the reduction is 0.3%. For fiscal years 2015 and 2016, the reduction is 0.2%. For fiscal years 2017 — 2019, the reduction is 0.75%.
Medicare Productivity Adjustment
PPACA implements a separate productivity adjustment for the first time for hospital inpatient services beginning in rate year 2012 for LTCHs and fiscal year 2012 for IRFs. This provision will apply a negative productivity adjustment to the market basket that is used to update the standard federal rate on an annual basis. The adjustment will be applied each year. The market basket does not currently account for increases in provider productivity that could reduce the actual cost of providing services (e.g., through new technology or fewer inputs). The productivity adjustment will equal the 10-year moving average of changes in the annual economy-wide private non-farm business multi-factor productivity. This is a statistic reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and updated in the spring of each year. While this adjustment will change year-to-year, it is currently estimated that this adjustment to the market basket will be approximately minus 1.0% on average.

36


Hospital Wage Index
The PPACA abandons the current system of calculating the hospital wage index based on data submitted in hospital cost reports, which currently has a four year lag in data. In its place, CMS is required to develop a comprehensive reform plan to present to Congress by December 31, 2011 using Bureau of Labor Statistics data, or other data or methodologies, to calculate relative wages for each geographic area involved. Although the PPACA addresses the hospital wage index generally, this change presumably applies to LTCHs given that the LTCH-PPS wage index is computed using wage data from inpatient acute care hospitals.
Independent Payment Advisory Board
The PPACA establishes an independent board called the “Independent Payment Advisory Board” that will develop and submit proposals to the President and Congress beginning in 2014. The Independent Payment Advisory Board’s proposals must be designed to reduce Medicare spending by targeted amounts compared to the trajectory of Medicare spending under current law. The Independent Payment Advisory Board’s first proposal with savings recommendations could be submitted by January 14, 2014, for implementation in 2015, if the Medicare per capita target growth rate is exceeded, as described in the PPACA. However, the Independent Payment Advisory Board is precluded from submitting proposals that reduce Medicare payments prior to December 31, 2019 for providers scheduled to receive a reduction in their payment updates as a result of the Medicare productivity adjustment (discussed above).
Physician-Owned Hospital Limitations
Under the transparency and program integrityparticular provisions of the PPACA, the exception to the federal self-referral law (or “Stark law”) that currently permits physicians to refer patients to hospitals in which they have an ownership or investment interest will be dramatically curtailed. Only hospitals, including LTCHs, with physician ownership and a provider agreement in place on December 31, 2010 are exempt from the general ban on self-referral. Existing physician-owned hospitals are prohibited from increasing the percentage of physician ownership or investment interests held in the hospital after March 23, 2010. In addition, physician-owned hospitals are prohibited from increasing the number of licensed beds after March 23, 2010, unless meeting specific exceptions related to the hospital’s location and patient population. The Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services is required to implement a process for allowing bed increases by August 1, 2011 and must promulgate regulations to carry out this process no later than January 1, 2012. In order to retain their exemption from the general ban on self-referrals, our physician-owned hospitals are required to adopt specific measures relating to conflicts of interest, bona fide investments and patient safety.
Provider and Employee Screening
The PPACA imposes new screening requirements on all Medicare providers. The screening must include a licensure check and may include other procedures such as a criminal background check, fingerprinting, unscheduled and unannounced site visits, database checks, and other screening techniques CMS deems appropriate to prevent fraud, waste and abuse. Medicare providers and suppliers will be required to pay a fee in connection with the screening procedures. In a proposed rule published on September 23, 2010, CMS proposes to implement an enrollment application fee for new providers and for current enrolled providers revalidating their enrollment status on or after March 23, 2011. The proposed rule would implement a $500 application fee that is adjusted by the percentage change in the consumer price index. The PPACA also imposes new disclosure requirements and authorizes surety bonds for the enrollment of new providers and suppliers.

37


In addition, the PPACA requires LTCHs to conduct national and state criminal background checks, including fingerprint checks of their employees and contractors who have (or may have) one-on-one contact with patients. Our LTCHs are prohibited from hiring or retaining workers with a finding of patient or resident abuse that is disqualifying.
Medicare Compliance Requirements and Penalties
The PPACA includes new compliance requirements and increases existing penalties for non-compliance with federal law and the Medicare conditions of participation. In addition, Medicare claims will be paid only if submitted within 12 months. Penalties for submitting false claims and for submitting false statements material to a false claim will be increased. The Secretary will be granted the authority to suspend payments to a provider pending an investigation of credible allegations of fraud. Further, the Recovery Audit Contractor or RAC program will be extended to Medicare Parts C and D and Medicaid no later than December 31, 2010.PPACA.
Medicare Payment of Long-Term Acute Care Hospitals during Fiscal Year 2010
On June 2, 2010, CMS published a notice of changes to the payment rates for LTCH-PPS during the portion of rate year 2010 occurring on or after April 1, 2010. The standard federal rate for discharges occurring on or after April 1, 2010 was revised to $39,795. This change reflects a decrease from $39,897 established in the original final rule for RY 2010. This change to the LTCH-PPS standard federal rate for the remainder of FY 2010 is based on a market basket increase estimate of 2.5% less a reduction of 0.5% to account for what CMS attributes as an increase in case-mix resulting from changes in documentation and coding practices less an additional reduction of 0.25% as mandated by the PPACA. The notice revises the fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases for RY 2010 discharges occurring on or after April 1, 2010 to $18,615, which is higher than the RY 2010 fixed-loss amount of $18,425 in effect from October 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010.
Medicare Payment of Long-TermLong Term Acute Care Hospitals during Fiscal Year 2011
On August 16, 2010, CMS published the policies and payment rates for LTCH-PPSlong term care hospital prospective payment system (LTCH-PPS”) for fiscal year 2011 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2010 and beforethrough September 30, 2011). The standard federal rate for FYfiscal year 2011 is $39,600, which is a decrease from the RYfiscal year 2010 federal rate of $39,897 in effect from October 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010 and the RY 2010 federal rate of $39,795 that went intoin effect onfrom April 1, 2010. This update2010 to the LTCH-PPS standard federal rate for FY 2011 is based on a market basket increase of 2.5% less a reduction of 2.5% to account for what CMS attributes as an increase in case-mix in prior periods (FYs 2008 and 2009) that resulted from changes in documentation and coding practices less an additional reduction of 0.5% as mandated by the PPACA.September 30, 2010. The final rule establishes a fixed-loss amount for high cost outlier cases for FYfiscal year 2011 of $18,785, which is higher than the RYfiscal year 2010 fixed-loss amount of $18,425 in effect from October 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010 and the $18,615 that went intoin effect onfrom April 1, 2010 to September 31, 2010. The final rule includesincluded revisions to the relative weights for the MS-LTC-DRGs for FY 2011 based on the standard federal rate. Consistent with the May 4, 2010 proposed rule for FYfiscal year 2011.
Medicare Payment of Long Term Acute Care Hospitals during Fiscal Year 2012
On April 19, 2011, CMS replacedreleased an advanced copy of the term “rate year” for LTCHs with “fiscal year” in order to reflect the fact that theproposed policies and payment rates for LTCHs are now revised on aLTCH-PPS for fiscal year basis (from October 1st through September 30th).
Medicare Payment of Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities during Fiscal Year 2010
On July 22, 2010, CMS published a notice of changes to the payment rates for IRF-PPS during the portion of rate year 2010 occurring2012 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after April 1, 2010 and before October 1, 2010. As described above, the PPACA mandates a market basket reduction of 0.25% for FY 2010.2011 through September 30, 2012). The standard federal rate for discharges occurringfiscal year 2012 would be set at $40,083, an increase from $39,600 applicable during fiscal year 2011. The increase, if adopted, would be based on or after April 1, 2010 was revised to $13,627.a market basket increase estimate of 2.8% minus a productivity adjustment of 1.2% and minus an additional 0.1% mandated by the PPACA. The fixed loss amount for high cost outlier cases would be set at $19,270. This change reflects a decreaseis an increase from $13,661 establishedthe fixed loss amount in the original final rule for FY 2010. In the same notice, CMS increased the outlier threshold amount to $10,721 for discharges occurring on or after April 1, 2010. The outlier threshold was $10,652 for discharges occurring on or after October 1, 2009 through March 31, 2010.2011 fiscal year of $18,785.

Medicare Payment of Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities during Fiscal Year 2012
On April 22, 2011, CMS released an advanced copy of the proposed policies and payment rates for IRF-PPS for fiscal year 2012 (affecting discharges and cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2011 and through September 30, 2012). The standard payment conversion factor for fiscal year 2012 would be set at $14,528, an increase from $13,860 applicable during fiscal year 2011. The increase, if adopted, would be based on a market basket increase estimate of 2.8% minus a productivity adjustment of 1.2% and minus an additional 0.1% mandated by the PPACA. CMS proposes to increase the outlier threshold amount for FY 2012 to $11,822 from $11,410.
Reductions to the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule
The Medicare program reimburses outpatient rehabilitation providers based on the Medicare physician fee schedule. The Medicare physician fee schedule rates are automatically updated annually based on a formula, called the sustainable growth rate (“SGR”) formula, contained in legislation. The SGR formula has resulted in automatic reductions in rates in every year since 2002; however, for each year through 20092011 CMS or Congress has taken action to prevent the SGR formula reductions. On June 25,December 15, 2010, President Obama signed into law the “Preservation of Access to Care for Medicare Beneficiaries“Medicare and Pension ReliefMedicaid Extenders Act of 2010,2010.which, among other things, providesThis law averts a 2.2% increase to Medicare physician fee schedule payment rates, retroactive from June 1, 2010 through November 30, 2010, suspending a 21.3% reduction that briefly became effective on June 1, 2010.
On November 2, 2010, CMS released the final update to25.5% cut in the Medicare physician fee schedule for calendar year 2011. In the final rule, the Medicare physician fee schedule payment rates between November 30, 2010 andthat was scheduled to take effect January 1, 2011 will be reduced by 24.9% as a result ofunder the SGR formula. An additional reduction will occur on January 1, 2011,2012, unless Congress prevents the SGR formula reductions from going into effect.
Medicare Payment of Outpatient Rehabilitation Services
Beginning on January 1, 1999, the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 subjected certain outpatient therapy providers reimbursed under the Medicare physician fee schedulePhysician Fee Schedule to annual limits for therapy expenses. Effective January 1, 2011, the annual limit on outpatient therapy services will beis $1,870 for combined physical and speech language pathology services and $1,870 for occupational therapy services. The per beneficiary caps were $1,860 for calendar year 2010. In the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, Congress implemented an exceptions process to the annual limit for therapy expenses. Under this process, a Medicare enrollee (or person acting on behalf of the Medicare enrollee) is able to request an exception from the therapy caps if the provision of therapy services was deemed to be medically necessary. Therapy cap exceptions have been available automatically for certain conditions and on a case-by-case basis upon submission of documentation of medical necessity. The PPACA“Medicare and Medicaid Extenders Act of 2010” extended the exceptions process for outpatient therapy caps through December 31, 2010.2011. Unless Congress extends the exceptions process, the therapy caps will apply to all outpatient therapy services beginning on January 1, 2012, except those services furnished and billed by outpatient hospital departments. In the 2011 final Medicare Physician Fee Schedule rule CMS indicated they are also evaluating alternative payment methodologies that would provide appropriate payment for medically necessary and effective therapy services furnished to Medicare beneficiaries based on patient needs rather than the current therapy caps.

In
CMS adopted a multiple procedure payment reduction for therapy services in the final update to the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule for calendar year 2011, CMS adopted a multiple procedure payment reduction for therapy services.2011. Under the policy, the Medicare program will paypays 100% of the practice expense component of the CPT code/therapy procedure or unit of service with the highest Relative Value Unit (RVU)(“RVU”), and then reduce by 25%reduces the payment for the practice expense component ofby the 20% in office and other non-institutional settings and 25% in institutional settings for the second and subsequent therapy procedures or units of service furnished during the same day for the same patient, regardless of whether those therapy services are furnished by a single provider to a beneficiary on a single date of service.in separate sessions. This multiple procedure payment reduction policy iswas effective January 1, 2011 and will applyapplies to all outpatient therapy services paid under Medicare Part B, including those furnished in office and facility settings.B. Furthermore, the multiple procedure payment reduction policy applies across all therapy disciplines-occupationaldisciplines — occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech-language pathology. Our outpatient rehabilitation therapy services are primarily offered in institutional settings and, as such, will be subject to the applicable 25% payment reduction in the practice expense component for the second and subsequent therapy services furnished by us to the same patient on the same day.

Medicare Quality Reporting Program for LTCHs and IRFs


The PPACA requires that CMS establish new quality data reporting programs for LTCHs and IRFs by rate year 2014. Under the PPACA, if an LTCH or IRF fails to report on the selected quality measures, it will see its reimbursement reduced by 2% of the annual market basket update. The reduction can result in payment rates less than the prior year. However, the reduction will not carry over into the subsequent rate years. CMS is required to establish the quality measures applicable to rate year 2014 no later than October 1, 2012.
In its proposed update to the payment rates for LTCH-PPS for fiscal year 2012 CMS proposes to implement a quality data reporting program requiring LTCHs to submit data from three quality measures in order to receive the full payment update in fiscal year 2014, including measures related to (1) catheter-associated urinary tract infections, (2) central line catheter-associated blood stream infection, and (3) pressure ulcers that are new or have worsened. CMS has requested public comment on the three proposed quality measures and may change the particular measures or the data collection and reporting requirements for the quality measures in its final rule.
In its proposed update to the payment rates for IRF-PPS for fiscal year 2012, CMS proposes to implement quality data reporting program by requiring IRFs to submit data from two quality measures in order to receive the full payment update in FY 2014, including measures related to (1) catheter-associated urinary tract infections and (2) pressure ulcers that are new or have worsened. CMS has requested public comment on the two proposed quality measures and may change the particular measures or the data collection and reporting requirements for the quality measures in its final rule.
Facility Licensure, Certification and Accreditation
Our specialty hospitals and outpatient rehabilitation clinics are subject to extensive and changing federal, state and local regulations and private accreditation standards. Hospitals are required to comply with state hospital standards setting requirements related to patient rights, composition and responsibilities of the hospital governing body, medical staff, quality improvement, infection control, nursing services, food and nutrition, medical records, drug distribution, diagnostic and treatment services, surgical services, emergency services and social work. Our specialty hospitals are also required to meet conditions of participation under Medicare programs in order to qualify to receive reimbursement under these programs. In addition, manyall of our specialty hospitals and outpatient rehabilitation clinics are currently accredited by The Joint Commission, previously known as The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, and The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, by voluntarily complying with a specific set of accreditation standards.
Our specialty hospitals and outpatient rehabilitation clinics are subject to inspections, surveys and other reviews by governmental and private regulatory authorities, not only at scheduled intervals but also in response to complaints from patients and others. While our specialty hospitals and outpatient rehabilitation clinics intend to comply with existing licensing, Medicare certification requirements and accreditation standards, there can be no assurance that regulatory authorities will determine that all applicable requirements are fully met at any given time. A determination by an applicable regulatory authority that a facility is not in compliance with these requirements could lead to the imposition of requirements that the facility takes corrective action, assessment of fines and penalties or loss of licensure, Medicare certification or accreditation. These consequences could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

(2) We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain on early retirement of debt, stock compensation expense, other income, equity in losses of unconsolidated subsidiaries and long term incentive compensation.other income. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA 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 units. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles. 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, 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 generally accepted accounting principles and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. See footnote 10Note 6 to our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 for a reconciliation of net income from operations before income taxes to Adjusted EBITDA as utilized by us in reporting our segment performance.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2009March 31, 2010
In the following discussion, we address the results of operations of Select and Holdings. With the exception of incremental interest expense and income taxes, the results of operations of Holdings are identical to those of Select. Therefore, discussion related to net operating revenue, operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA, income from operations and non-controlling interestsinterest is identical for Holdings and Select.
Net Operating Revenues
Our net operating revenues increased by 7.8%18.5% to $588.3$693.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to $545.6$584.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010.
Specialty Hospitals.Our specialty hospital net operating revenues increased by 11.4%26.3% to $419.8$519.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to $376.9$411.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, the hospitals opened and acquired in 2009 increased net operating revenues by $10.2 million and theMarch 31, 2010. The Regency hospitals acquired on September 1, 2010 contributed $90.1 million of the increased net operating revenue by $23.4 million. These increases were offset by the loss of revenues from hospitals that closed during 2009 and 2010, which accounted for $2.1 million of the difference in net operating revenues between the three months ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2010. Net operating revenues for the specialty hospitals opened as of January 1, 2009 and operated by us throughout both periodsrevenues. Our patient days increased by $11.4 million24.6% to $384.8 million333,856 days for the three months ended September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, which was principally related to the addition of the Regency hospitals. The Regency hospitals contributed over 54,500 patient days, and excluding the effect of the Regency hospitals, patient days would have increased 4.3% compared to $373.4 millionthe same period, prior year. The occupancy percentage increased to 72% for the three months ended September 30, 2009. This increase in net operating revenue is principally related to an increase in our patient days in these same store hospitals. Our patient days for these same store hospitalsMarch 31, 2011 from 70% for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2010 increased 2.4% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009, which was primarily due to an increase in our Non-Medicarenon-Medicare patient days. The occupancy percentage in our same store hospitals was 66% for both the three months ended September 30, 2010 and for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Our average net revenue per patient day in our specialty hospitals was $1,478$1,514 for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to $1,479$1,491 for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. The increase in our net revenue per patient day was due to increases in our average Medicare net revenue per patient day, offset by a decline in our average non-Medicare net revenue per patient day. The decrease in our average non-Medicare rate resulted from a decline in the severity of patients we treated covered under Medicare HMO plans and a reduction in Medicaid reimbursements.

Outpatient Rehabilitation.Net operating revenue for ourOur outpatient rehabilitation net operating revenues for the segment which is comprised of outpatient rehabilitation clinics and contract therapy services, were $168.4increased slightly to $173.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to $168.8$173.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in our outpatient rehabilitation segment net operating revenues was due to a decrease in our contracted services based revenue, partially offset by an increase in our outpatient rehabilitation clinic revenue.March 31, 2010. The net operating revenues generated by our outpatient rehabilitation clinics for the three months ended September 30, 2010 grew approximately 1.2%2.5% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. The number of patient visits in our owned outpatient rehabilitation clinics increased 1.6%1.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 to 1,144,0961,138,700 visits compared to 1,126,0961,125,958 visits for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. Net revenue per visit in our clinics remained stable atincreased 2.0% to $103 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $101 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009. WeMarch 31, 2010. Our contract services business experienced a decline in our contract services based revenuenet operating revenues of approximately 5.0% for the three months ended September 30, 20107.3% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. This decline was primarily dueMarch 31, 2010 as the terminationresult of a loss of a significant therapy services contract.group of locations during the second quarter of 2010 where our contract was cancelled when our customer sold its business. We were able to partially offset some of the lost net revenue through the addition of new contracts.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses include our cost of services, general and administrative expense and bad debt expense. Our operating expenses increased by $34.3$93.8 million to $529.3$588.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to $495.0$494.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. As a percentage of our net operating revenues, our operating expenses were 90.0%84.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to 90.8%84.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. Our cost of services, a major component of which is labor expense, were $498.7$557.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to $448.7$472.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. The principal cause of this increase was increased costs associated with the hospitals acquired in 2009 and 2010 and increased cost inRegency hospitals. Additionally, our hospitals opened as of January 1, 2009 and operated by us throughout both periods. Our labor costs in these same store hospitals were 154 basis points higher and our other operating costs were 83 basis points higher for the three months ended September 30, 2010 when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. Our labor costs were primarily higher due to increased patient care hours that resulted fromfacility rent expense, which is a higher acuity patient population for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. Additionally, the labor costs included a $4.0 million charge due to an increase in our workers compensation program costs during the three months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in our other operating costs were caused by increasing onsite physician services at certain hospitals, increased equipment leasing costs and increased purchases of minor equipment and supplies. Another component of cost of services, is facility rent expense, which was $29.8$30.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to $29.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. General and administrative expenses were $19.2$16.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011, compared to $34.6$12.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. The change is related to a number of factors. In 2009increase in our general and administrative expenses were significantlyresulted primarily from higher because we incurred non-recurring charges related to an $18.3 million payment underlegal expenses and executive compensation costs in the Long Term Cash Incentive Plan and $3.7 millionthree months ended March 31, 2011 then in stock compensation expense related to the grant of restricted stock that vested in connection with our initial public offering of common stock. In 2010, our expenses were higher because we incurred $2.1 million of additional costs related to the transition of management functions and closing of the Regency corporate office. Additionally we incurred a $4.8 million charge due to an increase in employee healthcare costs. These 2010 increases were partially offset by a reduction of $1.8 million in incentive compensation for executive officers from the same period in the prior year.year and additional corporate administrative costs to support the Regency hospitals. Our bad debt expense as a percentage of net operating revenues was 1.9%2.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to 2.2%1.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. We experienced an increase in our bad debt expense in both our business segments that resulted from aging of some of our accounts receivable. We do not believe our experience in the first quarter of 2011 is indicative of any new trend and we expect our bad debt expense will decline to historical levels over the remainder of the year.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Regency hospitals acquired on September 30, 2009. The1, 2010 contributed $14.5 million of the increase in specialty hospital Adjusted EBITDA. Excluding the effect of the Regency hospitals, opened as of January 1, 2009 and operated by us throughout both periods hadthe Adjusted EBITDA margin would have been 20.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. In addition to the contribution from the Regency hospitals, the increase in the Adjusted EBITDA for the remainder of $60.5our specialty hospitals was primarily the result of the increase in patient days described above under “Net Operating Revenues — Specialty Hospitals.”

Outpatient Rehabilitation. Our outpatient rehabilitation Adjusted EBITDA for the segment increased by 4.3% to $21.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, a decrease of $5.7 million or 8.5%March 31, 2011 compared to the Adjusted EBITDA of $66.2 million for these hospitals for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin in these same store hospitals decreased to 15.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from 17.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The principal reason for the decline in our Adjusted EBITDA for these same store hospitals was an increase in costs of services described above under “Operating Expenses”. The hospitals acquired in 2009 and 2010 had losses of $1.1$20.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 comparedMarch 31, 2010. Our outpatient rehabilitation Adjusted EBITDA margins for the segment increased to losses of $0.112.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 11.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The principal reason for the increase in Adjusted EBITDA and the Adjusted EBITDA margin for the segment was related to our outpatient rehabilitation clinics. Our Adjusted EBITDA in our outpatient rehabilitation clinics increased by $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increased losses were dueMarch 31, 2011 compared to the hospitals acquired from Regency which generated anthree months ended March 31, 2010. Additionally, our Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.3 million from its acquisition date through September 30, 2010 in additionmargins for our outpatient rehabilitation clinics grew to the $2.1 million of transition costs discussed under “Operating Expenses” above. Our hospitals opened during 2009 or currently still in development incurred Adjusted EBITDA losses of $0.5 million13.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
Outpatient Rehabilitation. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 2.7% to $20.3 millionMarch 31, 2011 from 10.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $20.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

The decrease inand Adjusted EBITDA margin in our rehabilitation clinics was primarilyprincipally due to an improvement in the terminationperformance in the clinics acquired in 2007 from HealthSouth Corporation and the increase in our net revenue per visit. We experienced a decline in the Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin of our contract services business that resulted from the a loss of a significant therapy services contract.group of locations as described under “Net Operating Revenues — Outpatient Rehabilitation.”
Other. The Adjusted EBITDA loss was $19.2$16.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $12.2$12.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. This increased lossMarch 31, 2010 and is primarily related to the cost affecting our general and administrative expenses described above under “Operating Expenses.expenses.
Income from Operations
For the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 we experiencedhad income from operations of $42.0$87.6 million compared to $32.9$72.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. The increase in income from operations resulted primarily from a reduction in our general and administrative expenses.

Interest Expense
Select Medical Corporation.Interest expense was $20.8$18.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 compared to $25.1$23.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.March 31, 2010. The decrease in interest expense is related to a reduction in outstanding debt balances that occurred in 2009 as a result of repurchases of our 75/8% senior subordinated notes and the repayment of a portion of our senior secured credit facility with proceeds from Holdings’ initial public offering of common stock and a reduction in rate that has resulted primarily from the maturationexpiration of interest rate swaps that carried higher fixed interest rates.

Income Taxes
Select Medical Corporation.We recorded income tax expense of $8.0$29.0 million for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2011. The expense represented an effective tax rate of 42.1%. We recorded income tax expense of $19.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The expense represented an effective tax rate of 37.8%39.3%. We recorded income tax expense of $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The expense represented an effective tax rate of 24.9%.

Non-controlling interests in consolidated earnings were $0.7$1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and $0.8March 31, 2011 compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. These amounts reflect minority owners’ share of the earnings of joint ventured operations.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009
In the following discussion, we address the results of operations of Select and Holdings. With the exception of interest expense and income taxes, the results of operations of Holdings are identical to those of Select. Therefore, discussion related to net operating revenue, operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA, income from operations and non-controlling interests is identical for Holdings and Select.

Net Operating Revenues
Our net operating revenues increased by 5.2% to $1,752.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $1,666.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
Specialty Hospitals.Our specialty hospital net operating revenues increased by 6.8% to $1,234.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $1,156.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the hospitals opened and acquired in 2009 increased net operating revenues by $28.3 million and the Regency hospitals acquired on September 1, 2010 increased net operating revenues by $23.4 million from the three months ended September 30, 2009. These increases were offset by the loss of revenues from hospitals that closed during 2009 and 2010, which accounted for the $4.0 million of the differences in the net operating revenues between the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2010. Net operating revenues for the specialty hospitals opened as of January 1, 2009 and operated by us throughout both periods increased by $30.5 million to $1,176.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $1,145.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This increase in net operating revenue is principally related to an increase in our occupancy and patient days in these same store hospitals. Our patient days for these same store hospitals for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased 2.9% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009, which resulted from to an increase in both our Medicare and Non-Medicare patient days. The occupancy percentage in our same store hospitals increased to 69% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from 67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Our average net revenue per patient day in our specialty hospitals was $1,481 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $1,489 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This decline was principally due to a decline in our average Medicare revenue per patient day, which resulted from the June 3, 2009 interim final rule in which CMS adopted a new table of MS-LTC-DRG relative weights that had the effect of reducing reimbursement for Medicare cases. This reduction in Medicare payments was partially offset by the annual payment update that became effective on October 1, 2009. Additionally, on April 1, 2010 we experienced a further reduction in the standard federal rate per case of 0.25% mandated by PPACA
Outpatient Rehabilitation.Our outpatient rehabilitation segment net operating revenues increased 1.7% to $518.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $509.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in our outpatient rehabilitation segment net operating revenues was due to an increase in both our outpatient rehabilitation clinic revenue and contract services based revenue. The net operating revenues generated by our outpatient rehabilitation clinics for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 grew approximately 1.1% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The number of patient visits in our outpatient rehabilitation clinics increased 1.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to 3,442,266 visits compared to 3,385,733 visits for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Net revenue per visit in our clinics declined 1.0% to $101 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $102 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Our contracted services based revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 grew approximately 3.5% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This increase principally resulted from operations acquired in 2009.

Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses include our cost of services, general and administrative expense and bad debt expense. Our operating expenses increased by $67.3 million to $1,514.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $1,447.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. As a percentage of our net operating revenues, our operating expenses were 86.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 86.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Our cost of services, a major component of which is labor expense, were $1,441.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $1,353.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The principal cause of this increase was increased costs associated with the hospital operations acquired in 2009 and 2010 and the growth experienced in our hospitals opened as of January 1, 2009 and operated by us throughout both periods. Our labor costs in these same store hospitals were 42 basis points higher and our other operating costs were 11 basis points higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Our labor costs were primarily higher due to increased patient care hours that resulted from a higher acuity patient population for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. Additionally, the labor costs included a $4.0 million charge due to an increase in our workers compensation program costs during the three months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in our other operating costs was caused by increasing onsite physician services at certain hospitals, increased equipment leasing costs and increased purchases of minor equipment and supplies. Another component of cost of services is facility rent expense, which was $87.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $87.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. General and administrative expenses were $41.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $60.3 million for the nine months ended September 30 2009. The change is related to a number of factors. In 2009 our general and administrative expenses were significantly higher because we incurred non-recurring charges related to an $18.3 million payment under the Long Term Cash Incentive Plan and $3.7 million in stock compensation expense related to the grant of restricted stock that vested in connection with our initial public offering of common stock. In 2010, our expenses were higher than normal because we incurred $2.1 million of additional costs related to the transition and closing of the Regency corporate office. Additionally we incurred a $4.8 million charge due to an increase in employee healthcare costs. These 2010 increases were offset by a reduction in incentive compensation for executive officers of $5.2 million from the same period in the prior year. Our bad debt expense as a percentage of net operating revenues was 1.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 2.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The reduction resulted from improved collections and a reduction in the amount of accounts receivable outstanding greater than 180 days.
Adjusted EBITDA
Specialty Hospitals. Adjusted EBITDA increased by 1.1% to $214.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $212.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Our Adjusted EBITDA margins decreased to 17.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from 18.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The hospitals opened as of January 1, 2009 and operated by us throughout both periods had Adjusted EBITDA of $217.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $2.0 million or 0.9% over the Adjusted EBITDA of $215.8 million for these hospitals for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin in these same store hospitals decreased to 18.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from 18.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The principal reason for the growth in our Adjusted EBITDA for these same store hospitals was an increase in the volume of cases we treated in these hospitals. The Adjusted EBITDA margins declined due to higher relative costs of services as a percentage of net operating revenues. These increases were described above under “Operating Expenses”. We were also able to reduce the bad debt expense in these hospitals, which had the effect of increasing our Adjusted EBITDA. The hospitals acquired in 2009 and 2010 had losses of $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to losses of $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increased losses were due to the hospitals acquired from Regency which generated an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.3 million from its acquisition date through September 30, 2010 in addition to the $2.1 million of transition costs discussed under “Operating Expenses” above. Our hospitals opened during 2009 or currently still in development incurred Adjusted EBITDA losses of $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Outpatient Rehabilitation. Adjusted EBITDA was $66.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $67.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Our Adjusted EBITDA margins declined to 12.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from 13.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily the result of higher costs in our contract services business. This resulted from the need to use higher cost agency staffing at some of our locations due to the turnover of a number of our contracts and lost productivity in the Northeast during the three months ended March 31, 2010 due to a difficult winter weather season. This decline was partially offset by an increase of Adjusted EBITDA in our outpatient rehabilitation clinics that resulted from an increase in patient visits.2010.
Other. The Adjusted EBITDA loss was $41.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $37.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This increased loss is related to the general and administrative expenses described above under “Operating Expenses.”
Income from Operations
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 we experienced income from operations of $187.2 million compared to $165.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in income from operations resulted primarily from a reduction in our general and administrative expenses.
Gain on Early Retirement of Debt
Select Medical Corporation.For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we paid approximately $30.1 million to repurchase and retire a portion of our 75/8% senior subordinated notes. These notes had a carrying value of $46.5 million. A gain on early retirement of debt in the amount of $15.3 million was recognized on the transactions which was net of the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the repurchased debt.

In addition for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we paid approximately $6.5 million to repurchase and retire a portion of Holdings’ senior floating rate notes. These notes have a carrying value of $7.7 million. A gain on early retirement of debt in the amount of $1.1 million was recognized on the transaction which was net of the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the repurchased debt.
Interest Expense
Select Medical Corporation.Interest expense was $66.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $75.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in interest expense is related to a reduction in outstanding debt balances that occurred in 2009 as a result of repurchases of our 75/8% senior subordinated notes and the repayment of a portion of our senior secured credit facility with proceeds from Holdings’ initial public offering of common stock and a reduction in rate that has resulted from the maturation of interest rate swaps that carried higher fixed interest rates.

The lower effective tax rate we experienced for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 is due to a reduction in our effective tax rate for state and local taxes and a reduction in the amount of tax reserves provided on uncertain tax positions.
Non-Controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests in consolidated earnings were $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. These amounts reflect minority owners’ share of the earnings of joint ventured operations.

At September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011 our senior secured credit facility provides for senior secured financing consisting(as described below), consists of:
a $300.0 million revolving loan facility that will terminate on August 22, 2013, including both a letter of credit sub-facility and a swingline loan sub-facility, and
$191.8143.5 million in term loans that mature on February 24, 2012 (the “Tranche B Term Loans”), and
$291.3278.8 million in term loans that mature on August 22, 2014 (the “Tranche B-1 Term Loans”).
On June 7, 2010 we entered into an Assignment and Assumption and Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to Select’s senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) with a group of lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent. Amendment No. 4 extended the maturity of all $300.0 million of commitments under Select’s revolving credit facility from February 24, 2011 to August 22, 2013, and made related technical changes to the Credit Agreement. The applicable margin percentage for extended revolving loans and the commitment fee rate for extended revolving commitments have increased and will be determined based on a pricing grid set forth in Amendment No. 4. Under the pricing grid, the applicable margin percentage for revolving ABR loans ranges from 2% per annum to 3% per annum, the applicable margin percentage for revolving Eurodollar loans ranges from 3% per annum to 4% per annum, and the commitment fee rate for extended revolving commitments ranges from 0.375% to 0.75%.
On June 7, 2010, we also entered into an Amendment No. 4-A to the Credit Agreement with a group of lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent. Amendment No. 4-A made a technical change to the Credit Agreement that permits us to refinance existing indebtedness with the proceeds of new indebtedness, including the refinancing of existing senior subordinated indebtedness with the proceeds of new senior subordinated indebtedness.
The interest rates per annum applicable to loans, other than swingline loans and Tranche B-1 Term Loans, under our senior secured credit facility are, at our option, equal to either an alternate base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate for a one, two, three or six month interest period, or a nine or twelve month period if available, in each case, plus an applicable margin percentage. The interest rates per annum applicable to the Tranche B-1 Term Loans under our senior credit facility are, at our option, equal to either an alternate base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate for a three or six month interest period, or a nine or twelve month period if available, in each case, plus an applicable margin percentage. The alternate base rate is the greater of (1) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.’s prime rate

and (2) one-half of 1% over the weighted average of rates on overnight Federal funds as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The adjusted LIBOR rate is determined by reference to settlement rates established for deposits in dollars in the London interbank market for a period equal to the interest period of the loan and the maximum reserve percentages established by the Board of Governors of the United States Federal Reserve to which our lenders are subject. The applicable margin percentage for borrowings under our revolving loans is subject to change based upon the ratio of Select’s leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement). The applicable margin percentage for revolving loans will increase fromis currently (1) 2.50% to 2.75% for alternate base rate loans and (2) 3.50% to 3.75% for adjusted LIBOR loans upon the delivery of Select’s Form 10-Q to JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent to Select’s senior secured credit facility.loans. The applicable margin percentages for the Tranche B Term Loans are (1) 1.00% for alternate base rate loans and (2) 2.00% for adjusted LIBOR loans. The applicable margin percentages for the Tranche B-1 Term Loans are (1) 2.75% for alternate base rate loans and (2) 3.75% for adjusted LIBOR loans.

Our senior secured credit facility requires Select to maintain certain interest expense coverage ratios and leverage ratios (both as defined in our senior secured credit facility) which become more restrictive over time.. For the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, Select was required to maintain an interest expense coverage ratio (its ratio of consolidated EBITDA (as defined in our senior secured credit facility) to cash interest expense) for the prior four consecutive fiscal quarters of at least 2.002.25 to 1.00. Select’s interest expense coverage ratio was 3.253.32 to 1.00 for such period. As of September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, Select was required to maintain aits leverage ratio (its ratio of total indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA for the prior four consecutive fiscal quarters) at less than 4.50 to 1.00. Select’s leverage ratio was 3.073.42 to 1.00 as of September 30, 2010.March 31, 2011.
Also, as of September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, we had $251.4$147.2 million of availability under our revolving loan facility (after giving effect to $28.6$27.8 million of outstanding letters of credit).
On November 23, 2007,April 25, 2011, Select entered into an interest rate swap transaction for three years with an effective date of November 23, 2007. The swap is designated ascommenced a cash flow hedgetender offer and consent solicitation for any and all of forecasted LIBOR-based variable rate interest payments. The underlying variable rate debt is $100.0 million.
Select has outstandingits $611.5 million in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 75/8% 5/8% senior subordinated notes due 2015. InterestThe tender offer is scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m. on the notes is payable semi-annuallyMay 20, 2011. The tender offer and consent solicitation are being conducted in arrearsconnection with Select’s negotiations to refinance its senior secured credit facility. The tender offer and consent solicitation are conditioned on February 1 and August 1 of each year. The notes are guaranteed by all of Select’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, subjectentry into a new senior secured credit facility. Select expects to certain exceptions. The notes may be redeemed at Select’s option, in whole or in part, at redemption prices that decline annually to 100% on and after February 1, 2013, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Currently through January 31, 2011, Select may redeem the notes atuse a redemption price equal to 103.813% of the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. Upon a change of control of Holdings, each holder of notes may require us to repurchase all or any portion of the holder’sproceeds from such new senior secured credit facility to purchase the tendered and accepted 7 5/8% senior subordinated notes at a purchase price equaland to 101% of theretire Holdings’ $150.0 million principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase.
As of September 30, 2010, Holdings hadvalue outstanding $167.3 million of10% senior floating ratesubordinated notes due 2015, which bear interest at a rate per annum, reset semi-annually, equal2015. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to successfully refinance either our current senior secured credit facility or the 6-month LIBOR plus 5.75%. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 157 5/8% senior subordinated notes, or that the refinancing, if it occurs, will not be delayed beyond the second quarter of each year, with2011, or that the principal due in full on September 15, 2015. The senior floating rate notes are general unsecured obligationsterms of Holdings and are not guaranteed by Select or any new indebtedness will be as favorable as the terms of its subsidiaries.our existing indebtedness.
We may also 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, in tender offers, privately negotiated transactions 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.

Holdings has authorized a program to repurchase up to $100.0 million worth of shares of our common stock. The program will remain in effect until January 31, 2012, unless extended by the Boardboard of Directors.directors. Through March 31, 2011, Select has repurchased 7,175,691 shares at a cost of $46.2 million, which includes related transaction costs. We anticipate funding this program through available operating cash flow and borrowings under our senior secured credit facility.
We believe our internally generated cash flows and borrowing capacity under our senior secured credit facility will be sufficient to finance normal operations over the next twelve months. Our lenders, including the lenders participating in our senior secured credit facility, may have suffered losses related to their lending and other financial relationships, especially because of the general weakening of the national economy, increased financial instability of many borrowers and the declining value of their assets. As a result, lenders may become insolvent or tighten their lending standards, which could make it more difficult for us to borrow under our revolving credit facility. Our access to funds under the senior secured credit facility is dependent upon the ability of our lenders to meet their funding commitments. Our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected if we were unable to draw funds under our senior secured credit facility because of a lender default or to obtain other cost-effective financing.
As a result of the SCHIP Extension Act as amended by PPACA, which prohibits the establishment and classification of new LTCHs or satellites during the five calendar years commencing on December 29, 2007, we have stopped all new LTCH development.development with the exception of one new hospital under development that we acquired in the Regency acquisition. However, we continue to evaluate opportunities to develop new joint venture relationships with significant health systems, and from time to time we may also develop new inpatient rehabilitation hospitals. We also intend to open new outpatient rehabilitation clinics 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 our network of specialty hospitals through opportunistic acquisitions. As part of the Regency acquisition, we acquired one LTCH under construction.

Inflation
The healthcare industry is labor intensive. Wages and other expenses increase during periods of inflation and when labor shortages occur in the marketplace. In addition, suppliers pass along rising costs to us in the form of higher prices. We have implemented cost control measures, including our case and resource management program, to curtail increases in operating costs and expenses. We cannot predict our ability to cover or offset future cost increases.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) — Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“Update 2010-06”), which amends the guidance on fair value to add new requirements for disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The CompanyWe adopted update 2010-06 on January 1, 2010, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will bewas effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years.2010.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our long-term indebtedness. Our principal interest rate exposure relates to the loans outstanding under Select’s senior secured credit facility and Holdings’ senior floating rate notes. As of September 30, 2010,March 31, 2011, Select had $503.1$547.3 million in term and revolving loans outstanding under its senior secured credit facility and Holdings had $167.3 million in senior floating rate notes outstanding, which bear interest at variable rates. On November 16, 2007, Select entered into an interest rate swap transaction for three years with an effective date of November 23, 2007. Select entered into the swap transaction to mitigate the risks of future variable rate interest payments. The notional amount of the interest rate swap is $100.0 million and the underlying variable rate debt is associated with the senior secured credit facility. Each eighth point change in interest rates on the variable rate portion of our long-term indebtedness would result in a $0.8$0.9 million annual change in interest expense on our term loans.
ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
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, 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 as of March 31, 2011 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 nine monthsfirst quarter ended September 30, 2010March 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
On September 1, 2010, Select completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding equity securities of Regency Hospital Company, L.L.C. (“Regency”). During 2010, we transferred all accounting for Regency to our headquarters and began integrating Regency into our existing internal control procedures. The Regency integration may lead us to change our controls in future periods, but we do not expect changes to significantly 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
ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
To cover claims arising out of the operations of the Company’s specialty hospitals and outpatient rehabilitation facilities, the Company maintains professional malpractice liability insurance and general liability insurance. 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.

58


The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, which include malpractice claims covered under insurance policies, subject to self-insured retention of $2.0 million per medical incident for professional liability claims and $2.0 million per occurrence for general liability claims. In the Company’s opinion, the outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations.
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.
