7 Our Quality • Inpatient rehabilitation hospitals evaluate all patients at admission and upon discharge to determine their functional status. — FIM® is the tool for measuring functional independence. • The difference between the FIM® scores at admission and upon discharge is called the “FIM® Gain.” — The greater the FIM® Gain, the greater the patient’s level of independence, the better the patient outcome. FIM® Gain(2) is based on the change from admission to discharge of an 18 point assessment.

(2) In 2013, HealthSouth averaged 1,287 total Medicare and non-Medicare discharges per hospital in its then 101 consolidated hospitals. (3) Case Mix Index (CMI) from the rate-setting file presented above is adjusted for short-stay transfer cases. HealthSouth’s unadjusted CMI for 2013 was 1.34 versus 1.29 for the industry as measured by UDSMR, a data gathering and analysis organization for the rehabilitation industry; represents ~70% of the industry, including HealthSouth sites. (4) 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.

9 CMS Fiscal Year 2015 IRF Final Rule Rate Setting File Analysis (1) All data provided was filtered and compiled from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Fiscal Year 2015 IRF Final Rule rate setting file found at http://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service- Payment/InpatientRehabFacPPS/Data-Files.html. 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. (2) The CMS file contains data for each of the 1,142 inpatient rehabilitation facilities used to estimate the policy updates for the FY 2015 IRF-PPS Final Rule. Most of the data represents historical information from the CMS fiscal year 2013 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.

32 IRF-PPS Fiscal Year 2015 Final Rule: Key Provisions (1) (1) 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. This automatic reduction, known as “sequestration,” anniversaried April 1, 2014. Source: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2014-08-06/pdf/2014-18447.pdf The final rule: • Will implement a net 2.2% market basket increase – 2.9% market basket increase – (20 bps) Affordable Care Act reduction – (50 bps) Affordable Care Act productivity reduction • Updates the outlier threshold • Includes a new data collection requirement (beginning on October 1, 2015) that will capture the minutes/mode of therapy. CMS plans to use this data to potentially support future rule making in this area. • CMS made revisions to the list of codes it uses to presumptively test compliance with the 60% Rule. – The rule eliminates an additional 10 post-amputation ICD-9-CM codes used for presumptive testing – Code changes made in FY 2014 and 2015 will become effective for compliance review periods beginning on or after October 1, 2015 • ICD-10-CM cross walk from ICD-9-CM (effective no earlier than October 1, 2015) • CMS finalized: • Changes to IRF patient assessment instrument (“PAI”) • Two new quality measures for FY 2017: Facility-Wide Inpatient Hospital- Onset Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia Outcome Measure and Facility-Wide Inpatient Hospital-Onset Clostridium difficile Infection Outcome Measure • To begin validation audits to ensure completeness and accuracy of submitted quality data. 60 Percent Rule – Update to Presumptive Methodology Code List New Quality Reporting Update to Payment Rates Pricing: • Net pricing impact to HealthSouth expected to be approx. +2.3% for FY 2015 before sequestration (1) • Because of its efficient cost structure, HealthSouth receives very few outlier payments despite higher acuity patients (see slide 31). Quality: • HealthSouth will supplement existing quality reporting systems to meet the new requirements. Coding: • Post-amputation cases represent approx. 0.5% of HealthSouth’s Medicare discharges HealthSouth Observations


 
33 IMPACT Act of 2014 - Enacted October 6, 2014 (1) 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 for IRFs to be subject to the original 2% penalty. Source: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/113/hr4994/text 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 outcome measures. ▪ Although the IMPACT Act does not specifically call for the development 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(1) and home health agencies. The precise details of these new reporting requirements, including timing and content, will be developed and implemented by the United States 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 related quality measures to be established, 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.

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.

35 CMS: Inpatient Rehabilitation vs. Skilled Nursing Source: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-08-08/pdf/2011-19544.pdf “… MedPAC’s analysis of recent quality measure data related to rehospitalizations suggests that quality of care within SNFs has not been improving … Since 2000, one outcome measure (the risk- adjusted rate of rehospitalization for any of five care-sensitive conditions) exhibited almost no change … … shifting IRF patients toward SNF care does not necessarily improve the quality of care provided to the beneficiaries. A March 2005 report in the Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation found that 81.1 percent of IRF patients were discharged to home, compared to 45.5 percent of SNF residents. Additionally, IRF patients appeared to have shorter lengths of stay, averaging approximately a 13-day stay, compared to the average 36-day stay for a SNF resident. Finally, when patients discharged from each setting were reviewed 24 weeks after discharge, IRF patients had consistently better outcomes and displayed a faster rate of recovery.” “Given these findings, we do not agree with those commenters who would assume that shifting patients from the IRF setting to a SNF setting is necessarily more beneficial to the patient or the Medicare Trust Fund.”

49 Outstanding Share Summary, Warrant Information, and Conversion Price Notes (1) The Company purchased 9,119,450 common shares in Q1 2013 through a tender offer at a price of $25.50 per share. (2) 10 million warrants (pre-October 2006 reverse split) were issued in connection with a January 2004 loan repaid to Credit Suisse First Boston. The warrants expired on January 16, 2014. The holders of these warrants chose both cash and cashless exercises into shares of the Company's common stock. Prior to warrant expiration, 755,323 shares of the Company's common stock were issued upon exercise between September 30, 2013 and January 16, 2014. (3) The agreement to settle the Company's class action securities litigation received final court approval in January 2007. These shares of common stock and warrants were issued on September 30, 2009. The 5.0 million of common shares are included in the outstanding shares. The warrants to purchase approx. 8.2 million shares of common stock at a strike price of $41.40 (expire January 17, 2017) were not assumed exercised for the dilutive shares outstanding because they were antidilutive in the periods presented. (4) The difference between the basic and diluted shares outstanding is primarily related to the convertible senior subordinated notes and the Company's convertible perpetual preferred stock (convertible into 8.2 million and 3.2 million common shares, respectively, as of September 30, 2014). a. On November 18, 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 the Company’s 6.5% Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock. The Company recorded approx. $249 million as debt and approx. $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 at a conversion rate of approx. 25.7582 shares per $1,000 in principal amount, which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $38.82 per share, 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% ($46.58) 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. As a result of the transaction, the dividend on the convertible perpetual preferred stock was reduced from approx. $5.7 million per quarter to approx. $1.6 million per quarter. b. The 96,245 shares of preferred stock outstanding after the exchange transaction are convertible at the option of the holder, at any time into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $29.70 per share, which is equal to a conversion rate of approx. 33.6700 shares of common stock per share of preferred stock, subject to a specified adjustment. The Company may at any time cause the shares of preferred stock to be automatically converted into shares of its common stock at the conversion rate then in effect if the closing price of its common stock for 20 trading days within a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day before the date they give the notice of forced conversion exceeds 150% ($44.55) of the conversion price of the preferred stock.


 
50 Business Outlook 2014 to 2016 (as of November 20, 2014)


 
51 (1) If legislation affecting Medicare is passed, HealthSouth will evaluate its effect on the Company’s business model. (2) This is a multi-year CAGR; annual results may fall outside the range. Reconciliation to GAAP provided on slides 62, 96, 97, and 101.

(2) 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. This automatic reduction, known as “sequestration,” will result in a net year-over-year decrease to our net operating revenues of approx. $9 million in 2014 (anniversaried April 1, 2014). (3) HealthSouth believes, based on the Medicare IRF-PPS Final Rule for FY 2015, it should realize a net increase of approx. 2.3% in FY 2015 before sequestration. Revenue

54 Guidance (as of November 20, 2014)


 
55 2014 Guidance - Adjusted EBITDA(1) Considerations for October through December: Ÿ Revenue growth of 6.3% to 7.4% ― Discharge growth between 4.8% and 5.6% ― Revenue per discharge growth between 2.3% and 2.6% ― Lower outpatient revenues Ÿ Q4 2013 benefited from reductions to self-insurance reserves, including $6.7 million attributable to lowering the Company's statistical confidence level. Ÿ Includes the ramp up of three de novo hospitals expected to open in Q4 2014 Ÿ Bad debt expense of approx. 1.5% of revenues $575 million to $580 million (previous guidance $570 million to $580 million) (1) Reconciliation to GAAP provided on slides 62, 96, and 101

Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations Attributable to HealthSouth (1) $ 2.24 to $ 2.27 (Previous guidance of $2.25 to $2.31 per share did not include the approx. $0.08 per share loss on early extinguishment of debt ) (1) Income from continuing operations attributable to HealthSouth (2) The income allocated to participating securities, the convertible perpetual preferred dividends, and the repurchase premium on preferred stock need to be subtracted from income from continuing operations to calculate basic earnings per share. (3) The interest and amortization related to the convertible senior subordinated notes must be added to income from continuing operations when calculating diluted earnings per share. (4) Diluted earnings per share are the same as basic earnings per share due to antidilution.


 
57 Income Tax Considerations GAAP Considerations: • As of 9/30/14, the Company’s federal NOL had a gross balance of approx. $688 million. • The Company has a remaining valuation allowance of approx. $30 million related to state NOLs. Cash Tax Payment: • In 2014, the Company expects to pay approx. $12 million to $17 million of income tax, net of refunds. • HealthSouth is not currently subject to an annual use limitation ("AUL") under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 ("Section 382"). An "ownership change," as defined by Section 382, could subject the Company to an AUL, which would approximate the value of the Company at the time of the "ownership change" multiplied by the long- term tax exempt rate.

59 (1) Reconciliation to GAAP is provided on slide 61. (2) Definition of adjusted free cash flow 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 nonrecurring items. Common stock dividends (approx. $16 million paid in Q4 2013 and approx. $66 million paid in 2014) are not included in the calculation of adjusted free cash flow. (3) Net of amortization of debt discounts and fees (4) 2013 benefited by approx. $12 million for equipment purchases that were invoiced in Q4 2013 and paid in early 2014.

101 Reconciliation Notes for Slides 96-100 and 102 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 financial 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. 2. Per share amounts for each period presented are based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding unless the amounts are antidilutive, in which case the per share amount is calculated using the basic share count after subtracting the quarterly dividend on the convertible perpetual preferred stock, income allocated to participating securities, and the repurchase premium on shares of preferred stock. The difference in shares between the basic and diluted shares outstanding is primarily related to the convertible senior subordinated notes and our convertible perpetual preferred stock. 3. 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 this hospital from the equity method to a consolidated entity effective June 1, 2014.
