Notes

Kindred Healthcare acquired RehabCare for ~$900M (2011). Rehabilitation therapy staffing for nursing homes and hospitals. PE-backed Kindred was itself later taken private by Humana/TPG/Welsh Carson ($4.1B, 2018). Post-acute rehab under PE ownership: shorter therapy sessions, higher caseloads, lower-paid therapists. Medicare reimbursement changes (PDPM) disrupted the model.
