Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Nature of Operations, Consolidation, and Presentation of Financial Statements	1. Nature of Operations, Consolidation, and Presentation of Financial Statements Addus HomeCare Corporation (“Holdings”) and its subsidiaries (together with Holdings, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) operate as a multi-state provider of three distinct but related business segments providing in-home services. In its personal care services segment, the Company provides non-medical assistance with activities of daily living, primarily to persons who are at increased risk of hospitalization or institutionalization, such as the elderly, chronically ill or disabled. In its hospice segment, the Company provides physical, emotional and spiritual care for people who are terminally ill as well as related services for their families. In its home health segment, the Company provides services that are primarily medical in nature to individuals who may require assistance during an illness or after hospitalization and include skilled nursing and physical, occupational and speech therapy. Basis of Presentation The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2018 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which includes information and disclosures not included herein. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature necessary for the fair statement of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented in conformity with GAAP. Our results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any other interim period and have not been audited by our independent auditors. Principles of Consolidation These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Addus HomeCare Corporation, and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Reclassification of Prior Period Balances Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current-year presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the reported net income.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Revenue Recognition Personal Care Revenue The majority of the Company’s net service revenues are generated from providing personal care services directly to consumers under contracts with state, local and other governmental agencies, managed care organizations, commercial insurers and private consumers. Generally, these contracts, which are negotiated based on current contracting practices as appropriate for the payor, establish the terms of a customer relationship and set the broad range of terms for services to be performed at a stated rate. However, the contracts do not give rise to rights and obligations until an order is placed with the Company. When an order is placed, it creates the performance obligation to provide a defined quantity of service hours, or authorized hours, per consumer. The Company satisfies its performance obligations over time, given that consumers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the Company as the services are performed. As the Company has a right to consideration from customers commensurate with the value provided to customers from the performance completed over a given invoice period, the Company has elected to use the practical expedient for measuring progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations and recognizes patient service revenue in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice. Hospice Revenue The Company generates net service revenues from providing hospice services to terminally ill consumers and their families. Net service revenues are recognized as services are provided and costs for delivery of such services are incurred. The estimated payment rates are daily rates for each of the levels of care the Company delivers. Hospice companies are subject to two specific payment limit caps under the Medicare program each federal fiscal year, the inpatient cap and the aggregate cap. The inpatient cap limits the number of inpatient care days provided to no more than 20% of the total days of hospice care provided to Medicare patients for the year. The aggregate cap limits the amount of Medicare reimbursement a hospice may receive, based on the number of Medicare patients served. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company was below the payment limits and did not record a cap liability. Home Health Revenue The Company also generates net service revenues from providing home healthcare services directly to consumers mainly under contracts with Medicare and managed care organizations. Generally, these contracts, which are negotiated based on current contracting practices as appropriate for the payor, establish the terms of a relationship and set the broad range of terms for services to be performed on an episodic basis at a stated rate. Home health Medicare services are paid under the Medicare Home Health Prospective Payment System (“HHPPS”), which is based on a 60-day episode of care. The HHPPS permits multiple, continuous episodes per patient. Medicare payment rates for episodes under HHPPS vary based on the severity of the patient’s condition as determined by assessment of a patient’s Home Health Resource Group score. The Company elects to use the same 60-day length of episode that Medicare recognizes as standard but accelerates revenue upon discharge to align with a patient’s episode length if less than the expected 60 days, which depicts the transfer of services and related benefits received by the patient over the term of the contract necessary to satisfy the obligations. The Company recognizes revenue based on the number of days elapsed during an episode of care within the reporting period. The Company satisfies its performance obligations as consumers receive and consume the benefits provided by the Company as the services are performed. As the Company has a right to reimbursement from Medicare commensurate with the services provided to customers from the performance completed over a given episodic period, the Company has elected to use the practical expedient for measuring progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations. Under this method recognizing revenue ratably over the episode based on beginning and ending dates is a reasonable proxy for the transfer of benefit of the service. Implicit Price Concessions We record estimated implicit price concessions (based primarily on historical collection experience) related to uninsured accounts to record self-pay revenues at the estimated amounts we expect to collect. The estimates for implicit price concessions are based upon management’s assessment of historical write offs and expected net collections, business and economic conditions, trends in federal, state and private employer health care coverage and other collection indicators. The Company recorded $2.2 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, as a reduction to revenue. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We are paid for our services primarily by federal, state and local agencies under Medicaid and Medicare programs, managed care organizations, commercial insurance companies and private consumers. While our accounts receivable are uncollateralized, our credit risk is somewhat limited due to the significance of governmental payors to our financial results of operations. Laws and regulations governing the governmental programs in which we participate are complex and subject to interpretation and change. Subsequent adjustments that are determined to be the result of an adverse change in the payor’s ability to pay are recognized as allowance for doubtful accounts. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the allowance for doubtful accounts balance was $0.8 million and $0.7 million, which is included in the account receivable, net of allowances on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets by use of the straight-line method. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows: Computer equipment 3 – 5 years Furniture and equipment 5 – 7 years Transportation equipment 5 years Computer software 3 –10 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of useful life or lease term Goodwill The Company’s carrying value of goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired from various acquisitions. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Intangible Assets The Company’s identifiable intangible assets consist of customer and referral relationships, trade names, trademarks, state licenses and non-compete agreements. The Company uses various valuation techniques to determine initial fair value of its intangible assets, including relief-from-royalty, income approach methods, and discounted cash flow analysis, which use significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the fair value hierarchy in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement . Under these valuation approaches, we are required to make estimates and assumptions about future market growth and trends, forecasted revenue and costs, expected periods over which the assets will be utilized, appropriate discount rates and other variables. The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates. Amortization is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods based upon the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which range from three to twenty-five years and assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company would recognize an impairment loss when the estimated future non-discounted cash flows associated with the intangible asset are less than the carrying value. An impairment charge would then be recorded for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of these intangible assets using the income approach. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets , intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. We test intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, as of October 1, or whenever potential impairment triggers occur, such as a significant change in business climate or regulatory changes that would indicate that an impairment may have occurred. No impairment charge was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, intangibles, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization was $22.5 million and $23.8 million, respectively, included in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets Debt Issuance Costs The Company amortizes debt issuance costs on a straight-line method over the term of the related debt. This method approximates the effective interest method. Debt issuance costs are classified as a current portion of long-term debt or long-term debt, less current portion as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Workers’ Compensation Program The Company’s workers’ compensation insurance program has a $0.4 million deductible component. The Company recognizes its obligations associated with this program in the period the claim is incurred. The cost of both the claims reported and claims incurred but not reported, up to the deductible, have been accrued based on historical claims experience, industry statistics and an actuarial analysis performed by an independent third party. The Company monitors its claims quarterly and adjusts its reserves accordingly. These costs are recorded primarily as the cost of services on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $14.5 million and $15.2 million, respectively, in workers’ compensation insurance. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in workers’ compensation insurance recovery receivables. The workers’ compensation insurance recovery receivable is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest Income Illinois law entitles designated service program providers to receive a prompt payment interest penalty based on qualifying services approved for payment that remain unpaid after a designated period of time. As the amount and timing of the receipt of these payments are not certain, the interest income is recognized when received. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company received $0.1 million in prompt payment interest. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company received $2.3 million in prompt payment interest. Interest Expense The Company’s interest expense consists of interest and unused credit line fees on its credit facilities, its Terminated Senior Credit Facility (as defined herein), and interest on its financing lease obligations, which is reported in the statement of income when incurred. Income Tax Expense The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Stock-based Compensation The Company currently has one stock incentive plan, the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”), under which new grants of stock-based employee compensation may be made. In addition, the Company has outstanding awards under its 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Stock Compensation Diluted Net Income Per Common Share Diluted net income per common share, calculated on the treasury stock method, is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s outstanding securities that may potentially dilute the common stock are stock options and restricted stock awards. Included in the Company’s calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were approximately 685,000 stock options outstanding, of which approximately 303,000 were dilutive. In addition, there were approximately 153,000 restricted stock awards outstanding, 83,000 of which were dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Included in the Company’s calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were approximately 746,000 stock options outstanding, of which approximately 129,000 were dilutive. In addition, there were approximately 166,000 restricted stock awards outstanding, 65,000 of which were dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Estimates The financial statements are prepared by management in conformity with GAAP and include estimated amounts and certain disclosures based on assumptions about future events. The Company’s critical accounting estimates include the following areas: implicit price concessions, the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserve for self-insurance claims, accounting for stock-based compensation, accounting for lease incremental borrowing rates, accounting for income taxes, business combinations and when required, the quantitative assessment of goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value Measurements The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, payables and debt. The carrying amounts reported on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt with variable interest rates approximates fair value based on instruments with similar terms using level 2 inputs as defined under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement Going Concern In connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company conducted an evaluation as to whether there were conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, which raised substantial doubt as to the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the issuance, or the date of availability, of the financial statements to be issued. The evaluation concluded that there did not appear to be evidence of substantial doubt of the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Leases [Abstract]
Leases	3. Leases During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) We have historically had operating leases for local branches, our corporate headquarters and certain equipment, with lease expiration dates through 2029. Certain of our arrangements have free rent periods or escalating rent payment provisions. We recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our leases generally contain renewal options for periods ranging from one to five years. Because we are not reasonably certain to exercise these renewal options, the options generally are not considered in determining the lease term, and payments associated with the option years are excluded from lease payments. When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, we must estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	4. Acquisitions On May 1, 2018, the Company completed its acquisition of all the outstanding securities of Ambercare Corporation (“Ambercare”). The purchase price was approximately $39.6 million plus the amount of excess cash held by Ambercare at closing (approximately $12.0 million). The purchase of Ambercare was funded by a delayed draw term loan under the Company’s credit facility. With the purchase of Ambercare, the Company expanded its New Mexico personal care operations and acquired its hospice and home health segments in the state of New Mexico. The related integration costs of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, were included in general and administrative expenses on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, and were expensed as incurred. The results of Ambercare are included on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of the acquisition. The Company’s acquisition of Ambercare has been accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Total (Amounts in Thousands) Goodwill $ 28,831 Cash 12,028 Identifiable intangible assets 9,944 Accounts receivable 6,512 Other assets 442 Property and equipment 154 Accrued liabilities (4,073 ) Deferred tax liability (2,138 ) Financing lease (75 ) Accounts payable (3 ) Total purchase price allocation $ 51,622 Management’s assessment of qualitative factors affecting goodwill for Ambercare includes estimates of market share at the date of purchase, ability to grow in the market, synergy with existing Company operations, and the payor profile in the market. The Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Ambercare. Identifiable intangible assets acquired consist of trade names and customer relationships, with estimated useful lives ranging from three to fifteen years, as well as indefinite lived state licenses. The preliminary estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets was determined, using Level 3 inputs as defined under ASC Topic 820, with the assistance of a valuation specialist. The goodwill and intangible assets acquired are non-deductible for tax purposes. The Ambercare acquisition accounted for $14.8 million of net service revenues and $3.4 million of net income prior to corporate allocation for the three months ended March 31, 2019. On April 1, 2018, the Company acquired certain assets of Arcadia Home Care & Staffing (“Arcadia”), expanding its personal care services. The total consideration for the transaction was $18.9 million and was funded by a delayed draw term loan under the Company’s credit facility. The related integration costs of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, were included in general and administrative expenses on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, and were expensed as incurred. The results of operations from this acquired entity are included in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of the acquisition. The Company’s acquisition of Arcadia has been accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 805 and the resulting goodwill and other intangible assets was accounted for under ASC Topic 350.

This amended and restated credit facility totals $269.6 million, inclusive of a $250.0 million revolving loan and a $19.6 million delayed draw term loan, and is evidenced by the Credit Agreement. This amended and restated credit facility amended and restated the Company’s existing senior secured credit facility totaling $250.0 million. The maturity of this amended and restated credit facility is May 8, 2023, with borrowing under the delayed draw term loan available until June 30, 2019, as extended pursuant to the consent letter, dated January 30, 2019, executed by the Required Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Interest on the Company’s amended and restated credit facility may be payable at (x) the sum of (i) an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.50% based on the applicable senior net leverage ratio plus (ii) a base rate equal to the greatest of (a) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate,” (b) the sum of the federal funds rate plus a margin of 0.50% and (c) the sum of the adjusted LIBOR that would be applicable to a loan with an interest period of one month advanced on the applicable day (not to be less than 0.00%) plus a margin of 1.00% or (y) the sum of (i) an applicable margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.50% based on the applicable senior net leverage ratio plus (ii) the offered rate per annum for similar dollar deposits for the applicable interest period that appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (not to be less than zero). Swing loans may not be LIBOR loans. The availability of additional draws under this amended and restated credit facility is conditioned, among other things, upon (after giving effect to such draws) the Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) not exceeding 3.75:1.00. In certain circumstances, in connection with a Material Acquisition (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the Company can elect to increase its Total Net Leverage Ratio compliance covenant to 4.25:1.00 for the then current fiscal quarter and the three succeeding fiscal quarters. In connection with this amended and restated credit facility, the Company incurred approximately $0.9 million of debt issuance costs. Addus HealthCare, Inc. (“Addus HealthCare”) is the borrower, and its parent, Holdings, and substantially all of Holdings’ subsidiaries are guarantors under this amended and restated credit facility, and it is secured by a first priority security interest in all of the Company’s and the other credit parties’ current and future tangible and intangible assets, including the shares of stock of the borrower and subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for credit facilities of this type, including limitations on the Company with respect to liens, indebtedness, guaranties, investments, distributions, mergers and acquisitions and dispositions of assets. The Company pays a fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.35% based on the applicable senior net leverage ratio times the unused portion of the revolving portion of the amended and restated credit facility. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants regarding, among other things, the maintenance of records, compliance with laws, maintenance of permits, maintenance of insurance and property and payment of taxes. The Credit Agreement also contains certain customary financial covenants and negative covenants that, among other things, include a requirement to maintain a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a requirement to stay below a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and a requirement to stay below a maximum permitted amount of capital expenditures, as well as restrictions on guarantees, indebtedness, liens, investments and loans, subject to customary carve outs, a restriction on dividends (provided that Addus HealthCare may make distributions to the Company in an amount that does not exceed $7.5 million in any year absent of an event of default, plus limited exceptions for tax and administrative distributions), a restriction on the ability to consummate acquisitions (without the consent of the lenders) under our credit facility subject to compliance with the Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), restrictions on mergers, dispositions of assets, and affiliate transactions, and restrictions on fundamental changes and lines of business. As of March 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all its Credit Agreement covenants. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company had no draws under its credit facility. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had a total of $20.0 million of revolving loans outstanding with an interest rate of 4.49% on our credit facility and the total availability under the revolving credit loan facility was $141.2 million.

Senior Secured Credit Facility Prior to October 31, 2018, we were a party to a credit agreement (the “Existing Credit Agreement”) with certain lenders and Capital One, National Association, as a lender and swing lender and as agent for all lenders. This credit facility totaled $250.0 million, replaced our previous senior secured credit facility totaling $125.0 million (“Terminated Senior Secured Credit Facility”), and terminated the Second Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2015, as modified by the May 24, 2016 amendment (as amended, the “Terminated Senior Secured Credit Agreement”), between us, certain lenders and Fifth Third Bank, as agent, which evidenced the Terminated Senior Secured Credit Facility. The credit facility included a $125.0 million revolving loan, a $45.0 million term loan and an $80.0 million delayed draw term loan.

Income Taxes	8. Income Taxes A reconciliation of the statutory federal tax rate of 21.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 is summarized as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 Federal income tax at statutory rate 21.0 % 21.0 % State and local taxes, net of federal benefit 6.1 6.9 Jobs tax credits, net (6.0 ) (10.9 ) 162(m) disallowance for executive compensation 2.8 2.2 Nondeductible permanent items 0.4 1.0 Excess tax benefit (7.6 ) (1.5 ) Effective income tax rate 16.7 % 18.7 % On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Reform Act”). The legislation significantly changed U.S. tax law by, among other things, lowering corporate income tax rates. The Tax Reform Act permanently reduced the U.S. corporate income tax rate from a maximum of 35.0% to a flat 21.0% rate, effective January 1, 2018. The effective income tax rate was 16.7% and 18.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The difference between our federal statutory and effective income tax rates are principally due to the inclusion of state taxes and the use of federal employment tax credits.

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	9. Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings From time to time, the Company is subject to legal and/or administrative proceedings incidental to its business. It is the opinion of management that the outcome of pending legal and/or administrative proceedings will not have a material effect on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. On January 20, 2016, the Company was served with a lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against the Company and Cigna Corporation by Stop Illinois Marketing Fraud, LLC, a qui tam relator formed for the purpose of bringing this action. In the action, the plaintiff alleges, inter alia, violations of the federal False Claims Act relating primarily to allegations of violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and allegedly improper referrals of patients from the Company’s home care division to the Company’s home health business, substantially all of which was sold in 2013. The plaintiff seeks to recover damages, fees and costs under the federal False Claims Act including treble damages, civil penalties and its attorneys’ fees. The U.S. government has declined to intervene at this time. Plaintiff amended its complaint on April 4, 2016 to include additional allegations in support of its False Claims Act claims, including alleged violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. The Company and Cigna Corporation filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on June 6, 2016. On February 3, 2017, the Court granted Cigna Corporation’s motion to dismiss in full, and granted the Company’s motion to dismiss in part allowing Plaintiff another chance to amend its complaint. Plaintiff timely filed a second amended complaint on March 10, 2017, withdrawing its conspiracy claim under the Federal False Claims Act and adding an explicit claim under the Illinois False Claims Act for the same underlying kickback allegations. On April 7, 2017, the Company filed a partial motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint. On May 24, 2017, the State of Illinois filed notice that it was declining to intervene in the plaintiff’s claim under the Illinois False Claims Act. On March 21, 2018, the Court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in part and narrowed the lawsuit to whether the federal False Claims Act was violated with respect to home health services provided at three senior living facilities in Illinois. The Company intends to defend the litigation vigorously and believes the case will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations. Employment Agreements During 2017, the Company entered into employment agreements with certain members of senior management. The terms of these agreements are up to four years with the potential to auto-renew and include non-compete, non-solicitation and nondisclosure provisions, as well as provide for defined severance payments in the event of termination. On November 5, 2018 we amended and restated the employment agreements of each of our named executive officers in order to: (i) increase the amount of severance that would be payable on certain terminations of employment in connection with a change in control (as defined in the employment agreements), from two times annual compensation to three times annual compensation (as defined in the employment agreements) in the case of our chief executive officer, and from one times annual compensation to two times annual compensation (as defined in the employment agreements) in the case of our other named executive officers; (ii) provide that the enhanced severance for terminations of employment in connection with a change in control would be payable if the named executive officers self-terminated for good reason (as defined in the employment agreements); (iii) stipulate that severance for terminations of employment in connection with a change in control would include any unpaid bonus for a performance period completed prior to termination (the chief executive officer already had this right); and (iv) adjust the duration of non-competition and non-solicitation periods to match the number of years of annual compensation that the named executive officer would receive in severance. A substantial percentage of the Company’s workforce is represented by the Service Employees International Union (“SEIU”) through local collective bargaining agreements. These agreements are re-negotiated at various intervals. These negotiations are often initiated when the Company receives increases in hourly reimbursement rates from various state agencies. Upon expiration of these collective bargaining agreements, the Company may not be able to negotiate labor agreements on satisfactory terms with these labor unions.

The Company incurred total expenses related to these initiatives of approximately $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These costs are included in general and administrative expenses on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The expenses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 included costs related to terminated employees and other professional fees. The Company expects some additional restructuring and other costs to occur, however, the amount and timing cannot be determined at this time. The following provides the components of and changes in our severance and restructuring accruals: Employee Termination Costs Restructuring and Other (Amounts in Thousands) Balance at December 31, 2018 $ 80 $ 585 Provision 65 288 Utilization (110 ) (311 ) Balance at March 31, 2019 $ 35 $ 562 Employee termination costs represent accrued severance payable to terminated employees with employment and/or separation agreements with the Company. Restructuring and other costs consist of the accrual related to lease commitments and write-offs of leasehold improvements and unused office space and property and equipment resulting from the closure of three adult day services centers in Illinois. These costs are included in accrued expenses on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	11. Segment Information Operating segments are defined as components of a company that engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision makers, to assess the performance of the individual segments and make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments. The Company operates as a multi-state provider of three distinct but related business segments providing in-home services. As a result of the acquisition of Ambercare on May 1, 2018, we began reporting the hospice and home health segments. In its personal care segment, the Company provides non-medical assistance with activities of daily living, primarily to persons who are at increased risk of hospitalization or institutionalization, such as the elderly, chronically ill and disabled. In its hospice segment, the Company provides physical, emotional and spiritual care for people who are terminally ill as well as related services for their families. In its home health segment, the Company provides services that are primarily medical in nature to individuals who may require assistance during an illness or after hospitalization and include skilled nursing and physical, occupational and speech therapy. The tables below set forth information about our reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 along with the items necessary to reconcile the segment information to the totals reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Segment assets are not reviewed by the company’s chief decision makers and therefore are not disclosed below. Segment operating income consists of the net service revenues generated by a segment, less the direct costs of service revenues and general and administrative expenses that are incurred directly by the segment. Unallocated general and administrative costs are those costs for functions performed in a centralized manner and therefore not attributable to a particular segment. These costs include accounting, finance, human resources, legal, information technology, corporate office support and facility costs and overall corporate management.

Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Personal Care Revenue The majority of the Company’s net service revenues are generated from providing personal care services directly to consumers under contracts with state, local and other governmental agencies, managed care organizations, commercial insurers and private consumers. Generally, these contracts, which are negotiated based on current contracting practices as appropriate for the payor, establish the terms of a customer relationship and set the broad range of terms for services to be performed at a stated rate. However, the contracts do not give rise to rights and obligations until an order is placed with the Company. When an order is placed, it creates the performance obligation to provide a defined quantity of service hours, or authorized hours, per consumer. The Company satisfies its performance obligations over time, given that consumers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the Company as the services are performed. As the Company has a right to consideration from customers commensurate with the value provided to customers from the performance completed over a given invoice period, the Company has elected to use the practical expedient for measuring progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations and recognizes patient service revenue in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice. Hospice Revenue The Company generates net service revenues from providing hospice services to terminally ill consumers and their families. Net service revenues are recognized as services are provided and costs for delivery of such services are incurred. The estimated payment rates are daily rates for each of the levels of care the Company delivers. Hospice companies are subject to two specific payment limit caps under the Medicare program each federal fiscal year, the inpatient cap and the aggregate cap. The inpatient cap limits the number of inpatient care days provided to no more than 20% of the total days of hospice care provided to Medicare patients for the year. The aggregate cap limits the amount of Medicare reimbursement a hospice may receive, based on the number of Medicare patients served. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company was below the payment limits and did not record a cap liability. Home Health Revenue The Company also generates net service revenues from providing home healthcare services directly to consumers mainly under contracts with Medicare and managed care organizations. Generally, these contracts, which are negotiated based on current contracting practices as appropriate for the payor, establish the terms of a relationship and set the broad range of terms for services to be performed on an episodic basis at a stated rate. Home health Medicare services are paid under the Medicare Home Health Prospective Payment System (“HHPPS”), which is based on a 60-day episode of care. The HHPPS permits multiple, continuous episodes per patient. Medicare payment rates for episodes under HHPPS vary based on the severity of the patient’s condition as determined by assessment of a patient’s Home Health Resource Group score. The Company elects to use the same 60-day length of episode that Medicare recognizes as standard but accelerates revenue upon discharge to align with a patient’s episode length if less than the expected 60 days, which depicts the transfer of services and related benefits received by the patient over the term of the contract necessary to satisfy the obligations. The Company recognizes revenue based on the number of days elapsed during an episode of care within the reporting period. The Company satisfies its performance obligations as consumers receive and consume the benefits provided by the Company as the services are performed. As the Company has a right to reimbursement from Medicare commensurate with the services provided to customers from the performance completed over a given episodic period, the Company has elected to use the practical expedient for measuring progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations. Under this method recognizing revenue ratably over the episode based on beginning and ending dates is a reasonable proxy for the transfer of benefit of the service. Implicit Price Concessions We record estimated implicit price concessions (based primarily on historical collection experience) related to uninsured accounts to record self-pay revenues at the estimated amounts we expect to collect. The estimates for implicit price concessions are based upon management’s assessment of historical write offs and expected net collections, business and economic conditions, trends in federal, state and private employer health care coverage and other collection indicators. The Company recorded $2.2 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, as a reduction to revenue.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts	Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We are paid for our services primarily by federal, state and local agencies under Medicaid and Medicare programs, managed care organizations, commercial insurance companies and private consumers. While our accounts receivable are uncollateralized, our credit risk is somewhat limited due to the significance of governmental payors to our financial results of operations. Laws and regulations governing the governmental programs in which we participate are complex and subject to interpretation and change. Subsequent adjustments that are determined to be the result of an adverse change in the payor’s ability to pay are recognized as allowance for doubtful accounts. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the allowance for doubtful accounts balance was $0.8 million and $0.7 million, which is included in the account receivable, net of allowances on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets by use of the straight-line method. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows: Computer equipment 3 – 5 years Furniture and equipment 5 – 7 years Transportation equipment 5 years Computer software 3 –10 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of useful life or lease term
Goodwill	Goodwill The Company’s carrying value of goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired from various acquisitions. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets The Company’s identifiable intangible assets consist of customer and referral relationships, trade names, trademarks, state licenses and non-compete agreements. The Company uses various valuation techniques to determine initial fair value of its intangible assets, including relief-from-royalty, income approach methods, and discounted cash flow analysis, which use significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the fair value hierarchy in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement . Under these valuation approaches, we are required to make estimates and assumptions about future market growth and trends, forecasted revenue and costs, expected periods over which the assets will be utilized, appropriate discount rates and other variables. The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates. Amortization is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods based upon the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which range from three to twenty-five years and assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company would recognize an impairment loss when the estimated future non-discounted cash flows associated with the intangible asset are less than the carrying value. An impairment charge would then be recorded for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of these intangible assets using the income approach. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets , intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. We test intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, as of October 1, or whenever potential impairment triggers occur, such as a significant change in business climate or regulatory changes that would indicate that an impairment may have occurred. No impairment charge was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, intangibles, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization was $22.5 million and $23.8 million, respectively, included in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
Debt Issuance Costs	Debt Issuance Costs The Company amortizes debt issuance costs on a straight-line method over the term of the related debt. This method approximates the effective interest method. Debt issuance costs are classified as a current portion of long-term debt or long-term debt, less current portion as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Workers' Compensation Program	Workers’ Compensation Program The Company’s workers’ compensation insurance program has a $0.4 million deductible component. The Company recognizes its obligations associated with this program in the period the claim is incurred. The cost of both the claims reported and claims incurred but not reported, up to the deductible, have been accrued based on historical claims experience, industry statistics and an actuarial analysis performed by an independent third party. The Company monitors its claims quarterly and adjusts its reserves accordingly. These costs are recorded primarily as the cost of services on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $14.5 million and $15.2 million, respectively, in workers’ compensation insurance. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in workers’ compensation insurance recovery receivables. The workers’ compensation insurance recovery receivable is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Interest Income	Interest Income Illinois law entitles designated service program providers to receive a prompt payment interest penalty based on qualifying services approved for payment that remain unpaid after a designated period of time. As the amount and timing of the receipt of these payments are not certain, the interest income is recognized when received. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company received $0.1 million in prompt payment interest. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company received $2.3 million in prompt payment interest.
Interest Expense	Interest Expense The Company’s interest expense consists of interest and unused credit line fees on its credit facilities, its Terminated Senior Credit Facility (as defined herein), and interest on its financing lease obligations, which is reported in the statement of income when incurred.
Income Tax Expense	Income Tax Expense The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-based Compensation The Company currently has one stock incentive plan, the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”), under which new grants of stock-based employee compensation may be made. In addition, the Company has outstanding awards under its 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Stock Compensation
Diluted Net Income Per Common Share	Diluted Net Income Per Common Share Diluted net income per common share, calculated on the treasury stock method, is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s outstanding securities that may potentially dilute the common stock are stock options and restricted stock awards. Included in the Company’s calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were approximately 685,000 stock options outstanding, of which approximately 303,000 were dilutive. In addition, there were approximately 153,000 restricted stock awards outstanding, 83,000 of which were dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Included in the Company’s calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were approximately 746,000 stock options outstanding, of which approximately 129,000 were dilutive. In addition, there were approximately 166,000 restricted stock awards outstanding, 65,000 of which were dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Estimates	Estimates The financial statements are prepared by management in conformity with GAAP and include estimated amounts and certain disclosures based on assumptions about future events. The Company’s critical accounting estimates include the following areas: implicit price concessions, the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserve for self-insurance claims, accounting for stock-based compensation, accounting for lease incremental borrowing rates, accounting for income taxes, business combinations and when required, the quantitative assessment of goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, payables and debt. The carrying amounts reported on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt with variable interest rates approximates fair value based on instruments with similar terms using level 2 inputs as defined under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement
Going Concern	Going Concern In connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company conducted an evaluation as to whether there were conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, which raised substantial doubt as to the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the issuance, or the date of availability, of the financial statements to be issued. The evaluation concluded that there did not appear to be evidence of substantial doubt of the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
