 Independent Research Concludes IRFs are a Better
 Rehabilitation Option for Stroke Patients than SNFs
 “If the hospital suggests sending your loved one to
 a skilled nursing facility after a stroke, advocate
 for the patient to go to an inpatient
 rehabilitation facility instead...”*
 “Whenever possible, the American Stroke
 Association strongly recommends that stroke
 patients be treated at an inpatient rehabilitation
 facility rather than a skilled nursing facility. While in 
an inpatient rehabilitation facility, a patient participates in at least
 three hours of rehabilitation a day from physical therapists,
 occupational therapists, and speech therapists. Nurses are
 continuously available and doctors typically visit daily.”*
 *
 **
 AHA/ASA press release, "Inpatient rehab recommended over nursing homes for stroke rehab," 
issued May 4, 2016 (newsroom.heart.org)
 "Guidelines for Adult Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery," issued May 2016 (stroke.ahajournals.org)
 “The studies that have compared outcomes in hospitalized stroke
 patients first discharged to an IRF, a SNF, or a nursing home have
 generally shown that IRF patients have higher rates of return
 to community living and greater functional recovery,
 whereas patients discharged to a SNF or a nursing home have higher
 rehospitalization rates and substantially poorer survival.”**
 99 of HealthSouth's IRFs hold The Joint
 Commission's Disease-Specific Care
 Certification in Stroke Rehabilitation.

 Solution:
 Utilize extensive proprietary
 database of IRF patients to
 engage in predictive modelling to
 identify patients at risk 
for acute care transfer and
 implement intervention strategies
 as part of the plan of care.
 Solution:
 Standardize and improve
 infection control practices across
 the company in order to reduce
 the risk of infection to patients
 and apply evidenced-based
 decision making in our hospitals.
 Solution:
 Develop clinical protocols and
 coordinated discharge planning between
 IRFs and home health agencies;
 structure and implement TeamWorks
 initiative to extrapolate best practices and
 standardize across all overlap markets;
 and use CTCs to implement patient-
 centered transition plans that promote
 quality, safety and patient choice. 
Problem:
 Acute care transfers can
 negatively influence patient
 outcomes and result in
 unnecessary health care
 expenditures and penalties.
 Problem:
 Healthcare-associated infections
 (HAI) are a threat to patient
 safety and add to growing
 healthcare costs.
 Problem:
 Poor coordination of the discharge
 process between healthcare
 providers can result in challenges
 with the transition of care,
 unnecessary duplication of services,
 and avoidable medical errors.

 CMS proposes to:
 • Remove All-Cause Unplanned Readmission Measure for 30 Days Post-
 Discharge from IRF
 • Remove and replace the Percent of Residents or Patients with Pressure
 Ulcers That Are New or Worsened (Short Stay) (NQF #0678) measure with a
 modified version entitled Changes in Skin Integrity Post-Acute Care:
 Pressure Ulcer/Injury beginning with the FY 2020 IRF QRP
 • Add six quality measures to those publicly reported on IRF Compare
 • Increase the data elements collected on the IRF-PAI in order to standardize
 the collection of quality metrics across all four PAC settings
 IRF-PPS Fiscal Year 2018 Proposed Rule: Key Provisions
 New Quality Reporting
 Update to Payment Rates
 Company Observations
 Pricing: 
• Net pricing impact to HealthSouth
 expected to be an increase of
 approx. 0.8% for FY 2018 
(see page 34)
 • Because of its efficient cost
 structure, HealthSouth receives
 very few outlier payments despite
 higher acuity patients 
(see page 91). 
Quality:
 • HealthSouth will supplement
 existing quality reporting systems
 to meet the new requirements.
 The proposed rule would:
 • Implement a net 1.0% market basket increase as established by the
 Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) of 2015
 • Update Case-Mix Group Relative Weights and Average Length of Stay Values
 • Update the outlier threshold
 • Update wage index values
 Source: https://s3.amazonaws.com/public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2017-08428.pdf
 60% Rule - Update to Presumptive Methodology Code List
 • CMS proposes to make changes to the list of codes it uses to presumptively
 test compliance with the 60% Rule
 – The proposed rule adds and removes certain ICD-10-CM diagnosis
 codes based on a comprehensive coding analysis performed by CMS
 clinicians and input from industry stakeholders
 – Code changes would become effective beginning on or after 
October 1, 2017
 37
 Pricing: 
• Net pricing impact to Encompass
 expected to be a reduction of
 approx. 3.6% for CY 2017 
(see page 34)
 • The final rule requires the
 recalibration of case-mix weights and
 the conversion of outlier payments to
 a per-unit methodology to be budget
 neutral for the industry. However,
 these changes will have a
 disproportionate impact on
 Encompass based on its patient mix.
     Quality:
 • Encompass will supplement
 existing processes and systems to
 meet the new requirements.
 HH-PPS Calendar Year 2017 Final Rule: Key Provisions
 New Quality Reporting
 Update to Payment Rates
 Company ObservationsThe final rule:
 • Implemented a net 2.5% market basket increase
            – 2.8% market basket increase 
– (30 bps) Affordable Care Act productivity reduction 
• Implemented the final year of the four-year phase-in of the ACA mandated
 rebasing adjustment. The net rebasing reduction is approximately (2.3%).
 • Implemented the second year of a three-year nominal case-mix coding
 intensity reduction adjustment of (0.9%)
 • Updated the outlier fixed-dollar loss ratio from 0.45 to 0.55
 • Recalibrated the case-mix weights to reflect current home health resource
 use and changes in utilization patterns
 • Converted outlier payments from a "per-visit" to a "per-unit" methodology,
 with “per-visit” rates converted into 15 minute “per-unit” rates
 CMS:
 • Adopted, for the CY 2018 payment determination, four measures to meet the
 requirements of the IMPACT Act:
  – Medicare Spending per Beneficiary (Claims Based);
  – Discharge to Community (Claims Based);
  – Potentially Preventable 30-Day Post-Discharge Readmission Measure
 (Claims Based); and 
 – Drug Regimen Review Conducted with Follow-Up for Identified Issues
 (Patient Assessment Based)
 • Removed 28 quality measures, beginning with CY 2017, and 6 process
 measures, beginning with CY 2018, due to CMS determining these measures
 have been “topped-out”

 home health agency must submit documentation
 to support medical necessity for each episode to
 the Medicare Administrative Contractor prior to
 billing the final claim.
 Q. What is the goal of the demonstration?
 A.
 CMS is testing methods for identifying,
 investigating, and prosecuting Medicare fraud
 occurring in the home health industry by trying to
 ensure applicable coverage and coding rules are
 met before the final claim is submitted.

 IMPACT Act of 2014 - Enacted October 6, 2014
   
Company observations and considerations with respect to the IMPACT Act: 
▪ It was developed on a bi-partisan basis by the House Ways and Means and Senate Finance Committees and
 incorporated feedback from healthcare providers and provider organizations that responded to the
 Committees’ solicitation of post-acute payment reform ideas and proposals. 
▪ It directs the United States Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), in consultation with healthcare
 stakeholders, to implement standardized data collection processes for post-acute quality and resource use
 measures.  
▪ Although the IMPACT Act does not specifically call for the implementation of a new post-acute payment
 system, the Company believes this act will lay the foundation for possible future post-acute payment policies
 that would be based on patients’ medical conditions and other clinical factors rather than the setting where the
 care is provided. 
▪ It will create additional data reporting requirements for the Company’s hospitals(18) and home health agencies.
 The precise details of these new reporting requirements, including timing and content, will be developed and
 implemented by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services through the regulatory process that the
 Company expects will take place over the next several years.
 ▪ While the Company cannot quantify the potential financial effect of the IMPACT Act on HealthSouth, the
 Company believes any post-acute payment system that is data driven and focuses on the needs and
 underlying medical conditions of post-acute patients will be positive for providers who offer high-quality, cost-
 effective care. HealthSouth believes it is doing just that and expects this act will be positive for the Company. 
▪ However, it will likely take years for the quality data to be gathered, standardized patient assessment data to
 be assembled and disseminated, and potential payment policies to be developed, tested and promulgated. As
 the nation’s largest owner and operator of inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, HealthSouth looks forward to
 working with HHS, the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission and other healthcare stakeholders on these
 initiatives.

 Hospice Growth Pipeline
  In 2015, Medicare hospice spending totaled approx.
 $16 billion.
  1.4 million Medicare beneficiaries received hospice
 services from approx. 4,200 providers in 2015.
  Between 2000 and 2012, Medicare spending for hospice
 increased more than 400%, driven by greater numbers of
 beneficiaries electing hospice.
  Between 2012 and 2014, Medicare spending has been flat
 despite the growth in the number of beneficiaries receiving
 hospice care. Flat spending is mostly explained by the 2%
 payment reduction from the sequester.
  Occurring simultaneously since 2000 has been a
 substantial increase in the number of for-profit providers.

 Alternative Payment Models
 53
 Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs)
 Pioneer ACOs
 (2016 – 9 ACOs / ~275,000 Medicare beneficiaries)
 • 32 Pioneer ACOs launched since program’s inception; 9 remained in the program prior to the model concluding on
 December 31, 2016 (some had voluntarily transferred to the Next Generation ACO program - see below).
 • Only half of the participants or less earned shared savings in 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015. 
• Shared savings CMS paid to Pioneer ACOs totaled $77 million in 2012, $68 million in 2013, $82 million in 2014, and $38
 million in 2015.
 • Estimates suggest ACO start-up and annual administrative costs significantly reduce or exceed the shared savings
 generated from ACOs.
 Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP)   
(480 ACOs / 9.0 million Medicare beneficiaries)
 • Year 3 performance for 392 MSSP ACOs:
 ◦ 119 ACOs (30%) held spending below their benchmark.
 ◦ 83 ACOs (21%) reduced health costs compared to their benchmark, but did not meet the minimum savings threshold
 for shared savings.
 ◦ 190 ACOs (49%) did not reduce costs compared to their benchmark.
 ◦ Shared Savings Program ACOs generated total program savings of $429 million.

 Bundled Payments
 How the Retrospective Models Work
  The BPCI “convener” is responsible for bringing
 providers together to provide a continuum of services
 throughout an episode of care. The BPCI "awardee" is
 the entity that bears the financial risk and receives the
 shared savings from CMS.
  Each participating provider in the care sequence
 continues to receive its traditional reimbursement from
 Medicare.
  The sum of all payments made to each provider for
 selected DRGs is then retroactively reconciled to a
 target payment determined by CMS. Payment
 reconciliations are performed quarterly, typically with a
 9- to 12-month lag.
  Payment reconciliations: If actual spending exceeds
 the target, the awardee is responsible for paying a
 portion of the difference to CMS. If actual spending is
 less than the target, the awardee keeps a portion of
 the savings.
  The convener can choose to partner with other
 providers in shared savings agreements and allocate
 the savings across the providers who participated in
 providing the continuum of care.
  Shared savings agreements must be reviewed and
 approved by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid
 Innovation.
 Model  1
 All acute patients (all DRGs)
 – Concluded December 31, 2016 –
 The Bundled Payments for Care Improvement
 (BPCI) initiative currently tests
 four types of bundles
 (i.e. "Models"):
 Models 2 & 3 have the most impact on post-acute providers.
 Model  2
 Hospital plus post-acute period (selected DRGs)
 Model  3
 Post acute only (selected DRGs)
 Model  4
 Hospital plus readmissions
 (selected DRGs)
 Notes: Models 1, 2, and 3 are retrospective models; model 4 is a prospective model.
             The convener and awardee can be, but may not be, the same entity.

 Alternative Payment Models: Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement Model
 and Episode Payment Model – Surgical Hip/Femur Fracture Treatment
 * These comorbidities are specific to acute care hospitals and are defined differently than IRFs' comorbidities.
 Source:  https://innovation.cms.gov/initiatives/cjr
 The Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement Model (“CJR”) and Episode Payment Model - Surgical Hip/Femur
 Fracture Treatment (“SHFFT”) are payment models for episodes of care related to knee and hip replacements and
 fractures under Medicare.  The CJR model is a five-year model that began April 1, 2016 in 67 geographic areas.
 The SHFFT model is a five year model currently scheduled to begin October 1, 2017 in the same geographic areas.
 Acute care hospital patients are categorized by Medicare Severity Diagnosis Related Groups (“MS-DRGs”);
 the CJR model covers two MS-DRGs (469, 470) and the SHFFT model covers three MS-DRGs (480, 481, 482):
 MS-DRG 469 Major joint replacement or reattachment of lower extremity with major complications or comorbidities*
 MS-DRG 470 Major joint replacement or reattachment of lower extremity without major complications or comorbidities*
 MS-DRG 480 Hip and femur procedures except major joint with major complications or comorbidities*
 MS-DRG 481 Hip and femur procedures except major joint with complications or comorbidities*
 MS-DRG 482 Hip and femur procedures except major joint without complications or comorbidities*
 IRF patients are categorized by Rehabilitation Impairment Categories (“RICs”);
 CJR model patients are a subset of two RICs:
 RIC 07 Lower extremity fractures (~77% are MS-DRGs 469, 470, 480, 481 and 482)
 RIC 08 Lower extremity joint replacements (~76% are MS-DRGs 469, 470, 480, 481 and 482)
 Since the implementation of the 60% Rule in 2007, the relative number of 
RIC 07 and RIC 08 patients treated in HealthSouth IRFs has declined significantly.
 RIC

 hospital returns a
 portion of the Medicare
 episode payment.
 CJR and SHFFT Models - How Do They Work?
       
              POST-ACUTE CARE    
                        PROVIDERS
 Acute care hospitals are accountable for 
expenditures and quality of care for entire "episode."
 Episode = hospitalization + 90 days post discharge
 Begins with an
 admission to an
 acute care
 hospital for a
 patient who is
 ultimately
 discharged
 under MS-DRG
 469, 470, 480,
 481, and 482.
 Acute care hospitals receive separate episode target prices each year reflecting the differences in spending for each MS-DRG.
 Target prices:
 ü are based on three years of historical data;
 ü include mandatory percentage discounts of up to 3% vs. benchmark episode spending; and
 ü incorporate a blend of historical, hospital-specific spending and regional spending for episodes, with the regional component
 of the blend increasing over time.
 Years 1 and 2 =
 2/3 hospital-specific; 1/3 regional
 Year 3 =
 1/3 hospital-specific; 2/3 regional 
Years 4 and 5 =
 100% regional
 RETROSPECTIVE
 RECONCILIATION
 PERFORMED BY CMS
 At the end of each
 performance year,
 actual spending for
 each episode is
 compared to each
 acute care hospital's
 target price.
 There is no downside risk in year one. Repayment
 responsibility will be phased in during year two.
 All providers are paid under the usual Medicare payment system rules and procedures. 
Patients are
 discharged to a
 post-acute care
 provider or to
 home self-care.

 Risk Sharing is Allowed in CJR with “Collaborators”
 Acute care hospitals participating in CJR may choose to engage in risk-sharing financial arrangements
 with other care providers for CJR episodes. A provider participating in these risk-sharing arrangements
 with a CJR acute care hospital is deemed a "collaborator."
 There are fourteen types of providers (plus
 ACOs) eligible to be CJR Collaborators,
 including IRFs and home health agencies.
 CJR acute care hospitals must establish
 eligibility criteria for Collaborators to meet,
 including quality of care criteria.
 Gain sharing payments must be determined in
 accordance with a methodology that is
 substantially based on quality of care and the
 provision of CJR activities.
 Non-ACO collaborators may not individually
 make alignment payments greater than 25% of
 the CJR acute care hospital’s repayment
 amount.  Each CJR acute care hospital must
 remain responsible for at least 50% of its
 repayment amount and may not collect
 alignment payments from collaborators in excess
 of 50% of the hospital’s repayment amount.
 There is no ceiling on the portion of the
 reconciliation payments received by a hospital
 from Medicare that the hospital may distribute to
 non-physician Collaborators.

 HealthSouth?
 Participation by acute care hospitals subject to limitation, notably if the hospital is 
participating in certain other alternative payment programs, such as certain models of the BPCI initiative

 In the calendar year 2016 HH-PPS final rule,
 CMS finalized a Home Health Value-Based
 Purchasing (HHVBP) Model that covers five
 performance years beginning January 1, 2016
 and concluding on December 31, 2022.
 Home Health Value-Based Purchasing Model
 Based on its industry-leading quality and patient satisfaction scores, 
Encompass is positioned to benefit from its payments being directly connected 
to its performance versus its peers via value-based payments (see page 18).
 • Three process measures from existing Outcome and
 Assessment Information Set (OASIS) data collection
 • Seven outcome measures from existing OASIS data
 collection and two outcome measures from claims
 data
 • Five HHCAHPS** consumer satisfaction measures
 • Three New Measures:
 ◦ points are achieved for merely reporting data
 ◦ will be submitted through the HHVBP Portal
 Total Performance Scores (a numeric score ranging
 from 0 to 100 based on each agency's performance) will
 be calculated from the following set of measures*:

 2.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2043
 Background
 • In November 2013, the Company issued $320 million of 2.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes
 due 2043 in exchange for 257,110 shares of its 6.5% Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock.
 • The Company viewed the Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock as having a high cost of capital with
 limited alternatives for redemption.
 • Investors were willing to trade the 6.5% dividend on the Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock for the
 2.0% coupon on the Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes in large part due to the liquidity offered via
 the investor put option (a protection against downside credit risk).
 Terms
 • Issued - $320 million (recorded as approx. $249 million of debt and $71 million of equity)
 • Coupon - 2.0%
 • Underlying shares - approx. 8.7 million common shares (8.5 million included in 2016 weighted average
 diluted share count)
 • Current conversion price - $36.735
 • Current conversion rate - 27.2221
 • Convertible, by the holder, at any time into shares of the Company's common stock
 ü At the Company's option, settlement can be made in cash, shares, or any combination thereof.
 Options
 Holders'
 Option
 • Put option effective December 1, 2020 at 100% of principal amount, plus accrued
 and unpaid interest which must be settled in cash
 Company's
 Option
 • Right to redeem, prior to December 2018, at 100% of the principal amount (plus a
 make-whole premium) if volume weighted average price of Company's common
 stock is at least 120% (currently $44.08) of the conversion price of the convertible
 notes for at least 20 trading days during any 30 consecutive trading day period
 • Holders may elect to convert their notes in lieu of redemption and receive any make-
 whole premium due.
 • After December 2018, fully redeemable, at par, for cash

 Operational Metrics

 • Salaries and Benefits includes group medical costs and is impacted by
 staffing levels based on patient volumes.
 ◦ Salaries and Benefits in Q1 2017 were impacted by planned increases in full-time
 equivalents (staffing increases at former Reliant hospitals, additional clinical staff
 for increased regulatory reporting requirements, and new stores).
 • Hospital-related Expenses includes other operating expenses (excluding
 loss on disposal or impairment of assets), supplies, and occupancy costs.
 • Provision for Doubtful Accounts is impacted by reserve activity related to
 the level of pre-payment denials by Medicare Administrative Contractors.
 (see page 75)
 • Employees per Occupied Bed (“EPOB”) is calculated by dividing the
 number of full-time equivalents, including an estimate of full-time
 equivalents from the utilization of contract labor, by the number of occupied
 beds during each period. The number of occupied beds is determined by
 multiplying the number of licensed beds by the Company’s occupancy
 percentage.

 Pre-payment claims denials $ 171.4 $ 159.7 $ 114.8
 Recorded reserves (51.9) (47.9) (31.2)
 Net accounts receivable from
 pre-payment claims denials $ 119.5 $ 111.8 $ 83.6
 Background
  For several years, under programs designated as “widespread
 probes,” certain Medicare Administrative Contractors (“MACs”)
 have conducted pre-payment claim reviews and denied
 payment for certain diagnosis codes.
 – Pre-payment claim denials increased for IRFs during 2014
 and 2015 due to a widespread review of neurological billing
 codes and expansion of ongoing lower extremity code
 denials.
  HealthSouth appeals most denials. On claims it takes to an
 administrative law judge (“ALJ”), HealthSouth historically has
 experienced an approximate 70% success rate.
 – MACs identify medical documentation issues as a leading
 basis for denials.
 – HealthSouth's investment in clinical information systems and
 its medical services department has further improved its
 documentation and reduced technical denials.
 – However, MACs and other HHS contractors continue to
 issue denials without regulatory basis.
  By statute, ALJ decisions are due within 90 days of a request
 for hearing, but appeals are taking years. HHS has proposed
 rule changes to address the backlog of appeals, but their effect
 is uncertain.
  Last year, a federal court ordered HHS to eliminate the backlog
 by the end of calendar year 2020. HHS has appealed the order.
  All Medicare providers continue to experience delays. The
 backlog is growing because the ALJs receive one year's worth
 of appeals every four to six weeks, according to HHS.
 – Currently, ALJs are hearing HealthSouth appeals from
 claims denied up to seven years ago.
 HealthSouth reserves for pre-payment claim denials via the provision for
 doubtful accounts upon notice from a MAC that a claim is under review.

 Requirements: Requirements:
 Rehab hospitals must also satisfy regulatory/policy requirements for
 hospitals, including Medicare hospital conditions of participation.
 No similar requirement; Nursing homes are regulated as nursing
 homes only
 All patients must be admitted by a rehab physician. No similar requirement
 Rehab physicians must re-confirm each admission w/n 24 hours. No similar requirement
 All patients, regardless of diagnoses/condition, must demonstrate need
 and receive at least three hours of daily intensive therapy.
 No similar requirement
 All patients must see a rehabilitation physician “in person” at least three
 times weekly.
 No similar requirement; some SNF patients may go a week or
 longer without seeing a physician, and often a non-rehabilitation
 physician.
 Rehab hospitals required to provide 24 hour, 7 days per week nursing
 care; many nurses are RNs and rehab nurses. No similar requirement
 Rehab hospitals are required to use a coordinated interdisciplinary team
 approach led by a rehab physician; includes a rehab nurse, a case
 manager, and a licensed therapist from each therapy discipline who must
 meet weekly to evaluate/discuss each patient’s case.
 No similar requirement; Nursing homes are not required to
 provide care on a interdisciplinary basis and are not required to
 hold regular meetings for each patient.
 Rehab hospitals are required to follow stringent admission/coverage
 policies and must carefully document justification for each admission;
 further restricted in number/type of patients (60% Rule). 
Nursing homes have comparatively few policies governing the
 number or types of patients they treat.

Outlier Observations:
 • 10% of IRFs receive 50% of the outlier payments; none of the 10% are HealthSouth. 
• HealthSouth receives 1.7% of the IRF outlier payments despite treating approx. 29% of the Medicare
 patients/discharges.
 • As a result of outlier payments, CMS pays HealthSouth approx. $824 less per discharge than other
 providers.
 • Capping the IRF industry outlier payments at 10% of each hospital's total Medicare payments could
 save Medicare approx. $610 million over 10 years.

 End Notes
 (1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s leverage ratio (total consolidated debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four
 quarters) is, likewise, a non-GAAP measure. Management and some members of the investment community utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a financial
 measure and the leverage ratio as a liquidity measure on an ongoing basis. These measures are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should
 not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance or liquidity. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, the reader should be aware that in the
 future HealthSouth may incur expenses similar to the adjustments set forth. Further explanation and disclosure relating to Adjusted EBITDA are included
 in the Company's Form 8-K, dated May 16, 2017, to which this Investor Reference Book is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
 (2) HealthSouth is providing adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to HealthSouth (“adjusted earnings per share”), which is a
 non-GAAP measure. The Company believes the presentation of adjusted earnings per share provides useful additional information to investors because
 it provides better comparability of ongoing performance to prior periods given that it excludes the impact of government, class action, and related
 settlements, professional fees - accounting, tax, and legal, mark-to-market adjustments for stock appreciation rights, gains or losses related to hedging
 instruments, loss on early extinguishment of debt, adjustments to its income tax provision (such as valuation allowance adjustments and settlements of
 income tax claims), items related to corporate and facility restructurings, and certain other items deemed to be non-indicative of ongoing operations. It is
 reasonable to expect that one or more of these excluded items will occur in future periods, but the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period
 to period and may not directly relate to the Company's ongoing operations. Accordingly, they can complicate comparisons of the Company's results of
 operations across periods and comparisons of the Company's results to those of other healthcare companies. Adjusted earnings per share should not
 be considered as a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States as the items excluded from it
 are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Because adjusted earnings per share is not a measurement
 determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable as presented to other similarly titled
 measures of other companies. Further explanation and disclosure relating to adjusted EPS are included in the Company's Form 8-K, dated
 May 16, 2017, to which this Investor Reference Book is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
 (3) Definition of adjusted free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP measure, is net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations minus capital
 expenditures for maintenance, dividends paid on preferred stock, distributions to noncontrolling interests, and certain other items deemed to be non-
 indicative of ongoing operations. Common stock dividends are not included in the calculation of adjusted free cash flow. Because this measure is not
 determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented
 by other companies. Further explanation and disclosure relating to adjusted free cash flow are included in the Company's Form 8-K, dated
 May 16, 2017, to which this Investor Reference Book is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
 Note:  Adjusted free cash flow for prior periods has been recast to conform to the new guidance in ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based
 Payment Accounting.” HealthSouth’s stock-based compensation plans permit shares to be withheld to pay the employee’s tax withholding obligations incurred in
 connection with the vesting of a stock award. HealthSouth then remits the value of those withheld shares in cash to the applicable tax authority on the
 employee’s behalf. Under the new guidance, all cash payments made to taxing authorities on employees’ behalf for shares withheld should be presented as a
 financing activity in the statement of cash flows. Historically, HealthSouth presented such payments as an operating activity.

 (4) In March 2017, the Internal Revenue Service approved HealthSouth’s request for a tax accounting method change related to billings denied under pre-
 payment claims reviews conducted by certain of its Medicare Administrative Contractors. This approval resulted in approximately $54 million of additional
 tax benefits to the Company through March 31, 2017. Approximately $39 million of this amount represents pre-payment claims denials received in years
 prior to and including the year ended December 31, 2015. These benefits are expected to reverse as pre-payment claims denials are settled or collected.
 (5) On July 16, 2015, the board of directors approved a $0.02 per share, or 9.5%, increase to the quarterly cash dividend on the Company’s common stock,
 bringing the quarterly cash dividend to $0.23 per common share. On July 21, 2016, the board of directors approved a $0.01 per share, or 4.3%, increase
 to the quarterly cash dividend on the Company’s common stock, bringing the quarterly cash dividend to $0.24 per common share.
 (6) Under this program, Joint Commission accredited organizations, like the Company's hospitals, may seek certification for chronic diseases or conditions
 such as brain injury or stroke rehabilitation by complying with Joint Commission standards, effectively using evidence-based clinical practice guidelines to
 manage and optimize patient care, and using an organized approach to performance measurement and evaluation of clinical outcomes. Obtaining such
 certifications demonstrates the Company's commitment to excellence in providing disease-specific care.
 (7) Data compares HealthSouth hospitals to hospitals comprising the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation (“UDSMR”), a division of UB Foundation
 Activities, Inc., a data gathering and analysis organization for the rehabilitation industry which represents approximately 70% of the industry, including
 HealthSouth sites. Data is adjusted by applying HealthSouth hospital case-mix to non-HealthSouth UDS hospitals.

 a.All data provided was filtered and compiled from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Fiscal Year 2018 IRF Proposed Rule Rate
 Setting File found at https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/InpatientRehabFacPPS/Downloads/
 FY2018_datafiles_proposed.zip. The data presented was developed entirely by CMS and is based on its definitions which are different in form and
 substance from the criteria HealthSouth uses for external reporting purposes. Because CMS does not provide its detailed methodology, HealthSouth is
 not able to reconstruct the CMS projections or the calculation.
 b.The CMS file contains data for each of the 1,137 inpatient rehabilitation facilities used to estimate the policy updates for the FY 2018 IRF-PPS
 Proposed Rule. Most of the data represents historical information from the CMS fiscal year 2016 period and may or may not reflect the same
 HealthSouth hospitals in operation today. The data presented was separated into three categories: Freestanding, Units, and HealthSouth. HealthSouth
 is a subset of Freestanding and the Total.
 (10) The 122 for HLS excludes the inpatient rehabilitation hospitals at St. John Rehabilitation Hospital, affiliated with HealthSouth (opened August 2016);
 HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Modesto (opened October 2016); and HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Beaumont (sold June 2016).  The 122
 does include HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Austin, which was closed August 2016.
 (11) In 2016, HealthSouth averaged 1,386 total Medicare and non-Medicare discharges per hospital in its then 118 consolidated hospitals that were open the
 full year.
 (12) Case Mix Index (CMI) from the rate-setting file is adjusted for short-stay transfer cases. HealthSouth’s unadjusted CMI for 2016 was 1.36 versus 1.33 for
 the industry as measured by UDSMR.
 (13) The Budget Control Act of 2011 included a reduction of up to 2% to Medicare payments for all providers that began on April 1, 2013 (as modified by
 H.R. 8). The reduction was made from whatever level of payment would otherwise have been provided under Medicare law and regulation.

 (14) HealthSouth acquired an additional 30% equity interest in Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital in Worcester, MA from its joint venture partner. This transaction
 increased HealthSouth's ownership interest from 50% to 80% and resulted in a change in accounting for the hospital from the equity method to a
 consolidated entity effective June 1, 2014.
 (15) Data provided by UDSMR.
 (16) The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 mandated a market basket update of +1.0% in 2018 for post-acute providers including
 rehabilitation hospitals as well as home health and hospice agencies.
 (17) The Company estimates the expected impact of each rule utilizing, among other things, the acuity of its patients over the 8-month (home health segment)
 to 12-month (inpatient rehabilitation segment) period prior to each rule’s release and incorporates other adjustments included in each rule. These
 estimates are prior to the impact of sequestration.
 (18) Quality reporting requirements and potential penalties were enabled for IRFs as part of the Healthcare Reform Bill (PPACA). The IMPACT Act of 2014
 requires additional quality and clinical data reporting for IRFs to be subject to the original 2% penalty.
 (19) Pre-opening expenses include expenses for training new employees on the clinical information system, which vary based on the timing of the first
 admission.
 (20) CMS published an updated Bundled Payments for Care Episode analytic file in January 2017. Among other data, this file provided the most recent listing
 of Model 2 awardees and the clinical episodes each participant selected for a bundled payment arrangement.
 (21) The leverage ratio is based on trailing four quarters of Adjusted EBITDA of $802.3 million from Q2 2016 to Q1 2017.
 (22) Represents discharges from 122 consolidated hospitals in Q1 2017 and Q4 2016; 121 consolidated hospitals in Q3 2016; 120 consolidated hospitals in
 Q2 2016; and 121 consolidated hospitals in Q1 2016.
 (23) Excludes approximately 430 full-time equivalents in Q1 2017 and approximately 420 full-time equivalents in the 2016 periods presented who are
 considered part of corporate overhead with their salaries and benefits included in general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated
 statements of operations. Full-time equivalents included in the table represent HealthSouth employees who participate in or support the operations of the
 Company’s hospitals.
 (24) Employees per occupied bed, or "EPOB," is calculated by dividing the number of full-time equivalents, including an estimate of full-time equivalents from
 the utilization of contract labor, by the number of occupied beds during each period. The number of occupied beds is determined by multiplying the number
 of licensed beds by the Company's occupancy percentage.
 (25) Represents home health admissions from 191 consolidated locations in Q1 2017; 186 consolidated locations in Q4 2016; 188 consolidated locations in
 Q3 2016; 187 consolidated locations in Q2 2016; and 184 consolidated locations in Q1 2016.
 (26) Represents hospice admissions from 35 locations in Q1 2017 and Q4 2016; 33 locations in Q3 2016; 29 locations in Q2 2016; and 27 locations in
 Q1 2016.
 (27) New guidance in ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” requires entities to record all of the tax effects related to
 share-based payments at settlement (or expiration) through the income statement. Historically, HealthSouth recorded such tax effects to equity.
 (28) In March 2006, the Company completed the sale of 400,000 shares of its 6.5% Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock. In Q4 2013, the Company
 exchanged $320 million of newly issued 2.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2043 for 257,110 shares of its outstanding preferred stock. In
 April 2015, the Company exercised its rights to force conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock. On the conversion date, each outstanding
 share of preferred stock was converted into 33.9905 shares of common stock, resulting in the issuance of 3,271,415 shares of common stock.

 (29) In November 2013, the Company closed separate, privately negotiated exchanges in which it issued $320 million of 2.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated
 Notes due 2043 in exchange for 257,110 shares of its 6.5% Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock. The Company recorded ~$249 million as debt
 and ~$71 million as equity. The convertible notes are convertible, at the option of the holders, at any time on or prior to the close of business on the
 business day immediately preceding December 1, 2043 into shares of the Company’s common stock and is subject to customary antidilution adjustments.
 The Company has the right to redeem the convertible notes before December 1, 2018 if the volume weighted-average price of the Company’s common
 stock is at least 120% of the conversion price of the convertible notes for a specified period. On or after December 1, 2018, the Company may, at its
 option, redeem all or any part of the convertible notes. In either case, the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the convertible
 notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
 (30) The agreement to settle the Company’s class action securities litigation received final court approval in January 2007. The 5.0 million shares of common
 stock and warrants to purchase ~8.2 million shares of common stock at a strike price of $41.40 (expired January 17, 2017) related to this settlement were
 issued on September 30, 2009. The 5.0 million common shares are included in the basic outstanding shares. The warrants were not included in the diluted
 share count prior to 2015 because the strike price had historically been above the market price. In Q1 2017, Q1 2016, full-year 2016 and full-year 2014,
 zero shares related to the warrants were included in the diluted share count due to antidilution based on the stock price. In full-year 2015, 80,814 shares
 related to the warrants were included in the diluted share count using the treasury stock method.
