Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA grew 5.6% year over year primarily due to home office expense reductions and revenue growth in hospice.

Consolidated revenue decreased $4.7 million, or 1.8%, year over year primarily due to lower Medicare volume as a result of lower recertifications in the home health segment.

Our payor innovation strategy continues to foster Medicare Advantage growth. 45% of non-Medicare visits are now in payor innovation contracts at improved rates. Non-Medicare revenue per visit increased from $140 in 2023 to $147 in 2024.

Non-Medicare admissions increased 20.1%, driving total admissions growth of 5.6% year over year. Revenue declined $9.9 million, or 4.7%, year over year primarily due to lower Medicare volume as a result of lower recertifications. Revenue per episode in Q3 2023 included a positive impact from changes in our estimated recoverability of net service revenue, leading to a negative year-over-year comparison in 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased $5.3 million, or 12.7%, year over year primarily due to the decrease in revenue. Cost per visit increased 1.1% year over year primarily due to the decrease in visits and merit and market increases, partially offset by a reduction in contract labor and favorable experience in workers' compensation and group medical claims. Year-to-date cost per visit was flat year over year. Visits per episode decreased 5.4% year over year to 14.1 primarily due to our continued focus on establishing a just right plan of care for patients, ongoing clinician education, team collaboration, and the thoughtful integration of predictive analytics.

OTHER INFORMATION

Note regarding presentation and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures

The financial data contained in this press release and supplemental information includes non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)) financial measures as defined in Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted free cash flow. See “Supplemental Non-GAAP Information” for reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, our Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, provides further information regarding “unusual or nonrecurring items that are not typical of ongoing operations,” a reconciliation item in our Adjusted EBITDA calculation. Such non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance and should therefore not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or alternative to the GAAP financial measures presented in this press release. The non-GAAP financial measures in the press release may differ from similar measures used by other companies.

The Company is unable to reconcile the guidance for Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to their corresponding GAAP measures without unreasonable effort due to the inherent difficulty in predicting, with reasonable certainty, the future impact of items that are outside the control of the Company or otherwise non-indicative of its ongoing operating performance. Accordingly, the Company relies on the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. Such items include, but are not limited to, 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); and items related to corporate and facility restructurings. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Note regarding presentation of same-store comparisons

The Company uses “same-store” comparisons to explain the changes in certain performance metrics and line items within its financial statements. Same-store comparisons are calculated based on home health and hospice locations open throughout both the full current period and the immediately prior period presented. These comparisons include the financial results of market consolidation transactions in existing markets, as it is difficult to determine, with precision, the incremental impact of these transactions on the Company’s results of operations.
