Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The information contained in this presentation includes certain estimates, projections and other forward-looking information
that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. These estimates, projections and other
forward-looking information are based on assumptions that HealthSouth believes, as of the date hereof, are reasonable.
Inevitably, there will be differences between such estimates and actual results, and those differences may be material.
There can be no assurance that any estimates, projections or forward-looking information will be realized. All such
estimates, projections and forward-looking information speak only as of the date hereof. HealthSouth undertakes no duty to
publicly update or revise the information contained herein.
This presentation also includes estimates and projections published by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
(“CMS”). We are not able to verify those estimates or projections or the detailed calculations thereof by CMS which are not
made public. Any changes or errors in those calculations, among other uncertainties such as those referred to below and
changes in CMS’s own rules and policies, could cause actual results to differ materially from CMS’s projections.
Furthermore, we do not believe that CMS numbers are consistent with financial reporting results. CMS data and projections
should not be used as an indication of financial performance.
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the estimates, projections and other forward-looking information in this
presentation as they are based on current expectations and general assumptions and are subject to various risks,
uncertainties and other factors, including those set forth in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, the Form
10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2009, June 30, 2009, and September 30, 2009, and in other documents we
previously filed with the SEC, many of which are beyond our control, that may cause actual results to differ materially from
the views, beliefs and estimates expressed herein.
Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following presentation includes certain “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The Appendix at the end of this presentation includes reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial
measures found in the following presentation to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in
accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States. Our Form 8-K, dated November 16, 2009, to
which the following presentation slides are attached, provides further explanation and disclosure regarding our use of non-
GAAP financial measures and should be read in conjunction with these presentation slides.

Notes:
(1) All data provided was filtered and compiled from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Fiscal Year 2010 IRF rate setting final
 rule file found at http://www.cms.hhs.gov/InpatientRehabFacPPS/07_DataFiles.asp#TopOfPage. 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 1,181 inpatient rehabilitation facilities used to estimate the policy updates for the FY 2010 Final IRF-
 PPS Rule. Most of the data represents historical information from the CMS fiscal year 2008 period and does 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.

Appendix and Reconciliations


 
 

 
18
Revenues (Q3 2009 vs. Q3 2008)
 Inpatient revenue growth was driven by strong discharge volumes.
  Volume growth was driven by the sustained sales and marketing effort.
  Same store discharge growth was 5.3%.
  Pricing essentially flat for the quarter. Q3 2009 marks the end of the Medicare pricing roll-
 back.
 Outpatient revenue declined as a result of 11 fewer outpatient satellites quarter over quarter.
 
 

 
19
 Continued improvement on labor productivity demonstrated by lower EPOB.
 Hospital-related expenses:
  Despite increased volume, hospital expenses remained essentially flat producing strong
 operating leverage.
  Increased provision for doubtful accounts to reflect aging of pending Medicare appeals.

Operational and Labor Metrics
(1) Numbers have been reclassified to reflect current continuing operations.
(2) Represents discharges from HealthSouth’s 91 consolidated hospitals, which includes Mesa, Arizona starting in Q3 2009.
(3) Excludes approx. 400 full-time equivalents, who are considered part of corporate overhead with their salaries and benefits included in general and
 administrative expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Full-time equivalents included in the above table
 represent HealthSouth employees who participate in or support the operations of the Company’s hospitals.
(4) 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.
 
 

 
23
Payment Sources
(1) Managed Medicare revenues represent ~ 8% of total revenues and are included in “Managed care and other discount plans.”
 
 

 
24
Interest Rate Swaps
(Millions)
(1)  In October 2009, the credit agreement was amended. The maturity for $300 million of the term-loan was extended to 2014, and is
 extendable to September 2015, contingent on the floating rate note being refinanced prior to March 2014. The extended portion of the
 term loan will bear an interest rate of Libor plus 375.
(2) In June 2009, we entered into a received-fixed rate swap as a mirror offset to $100.0 million of the $1,056 million interest rate swap.
(3) Forward-starting interest rate swaps (designated as cash flow hedges).
 
 

 
25
Debt Schedule
(Millions)
(1) October 2009, amendment to the credit agreement increases debt repayment flexibility of non-term loan balances.
(2) The Company had $117.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2009.
 
 

 
26
Non-Operating Cash/Tax Position
Cash Refunds as of Sept. 30, 2009
 Federal tax recoveries virtually complete.
  Approx. $43 million received.
 State tax refunds in progress.
  Approx. $17 million received.
  Approx. $9 million net receivable on
  the balance sheet.
Future Cash Tax Payments
 Expect to pay about $5-7 million per year of
 income tax.
  State income tax.
  Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).
 With over $2.5 billion in NOLs and tax
 deductions, we do not expect to pay significant
 federal income taxes for approximately the next
 10-12 years.
  At this time, we do not believe the use
  of NOLs will be limited before they
  expire, however, no assurances can
  be provided.
 HealthSouth is not currently subject to an
 annual use limitation (AUL) under the Internal
 Revenue Code section 382.
 If we experienced a “change of ownership” as
 defined by the Internal Revenue Code section
 382, we would be subject to an AUL, which is
 equal to the value of the company at the time of
 the “change of ownership” multiplied by the long
 -term tax exempt rate.
GAAP Considerations
 HealthSouth’s balance sheet currently reflects
 a valuation allowance for the potential value
 of NOLs and future deductions. The valuation
 allowance is approximately $1.0 billion.
 
 GAAP tax rate will net to small amount for
 foreseeable future as there will be a reduction
 in the valuation allowance when NOLs are
 utilized.
 
 

 
27
Disciplined Growth - Update
(1) Pending state license survey.
(2) CON is being appealed; operational date may change.
Bed expansions:
  Approximately 100 beds being added in 2009 and a similar amount
 in 2010.
  Average investment per bed:
  Internal renovation = $15 - 45K
  New construction = $100 - 250K
  Cash pay-back: 2 - 3 years
New hospitals:
 
 

 
28
De novo: 40-Bed Proforma Example
(1) Does not include estimated corporate overhead of ~4.75% of net operating revenues.
(2) Assumes state income taxes only for first five years, then federal and state income taxes.
 De novo’s attractive for future growth.
 We evaluate based on commitment (cash or leased).
 
 
 

 
29
Outstanding Share Summary
(Millions)
Notes:
(1) Completed an equity offering for 8.8 million shares on June 27, 2008.
(2) Does not include 2.0 million warrants issued in connection with a January 2004 loan repaid to Credit Suisse First Boston. In connection with this
 transaction, we issued warrants to the lender to purchase two million shares of our common stock. Each warrant has a term of ten years from the
 date of issuance and an exercise price of $32.50 per share. The warrants were not assumed exercised for dilutive shares outstanding because
 they were antidilutive in the periods presented.
(3) The agreement to settle our 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 now included in the outstanding shares. The warrants at a
 strike price of $41.40 were not assumed exercised for the dilutive shares outstanding because they are anti-dilutive in the periods presented.
(4) The difference between the basic and diluted shares outstanding is primarily related to our convertible perpetual preferred stock.

33
Reconciliation Notes
1. Adjusted income from continuing operations and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA are
 non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s leverage ratio (Total Consolidated Debt
 to Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four quarters) is, likewise, a non-GAAP
 financial measure. Management and some members of the investment community
 utilize adjusted income from continuing operations as a financial measure and Adjusted
 Consolidated EBITDA and leverage ratio as liquidity measures 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
 these adjusted measures, the reader should be aware that in the future HealthSouth
 may incur expenses similar to the adjustments set forth above.
2. Per share amounts for each period presented are based on basic weighted average
 common shares outstanding for all amounts except adjusted income from continuing
 operations per diluted share, which is based on diluted weighted average shares
 outstanding. The difference in shares between the basic and diluted shares outstanding
 is primarily related to our convertible perpetual preferred stock.
3. Adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share and Adjusted
 Consolidated EBITDA are two components of our guidance.
4. The Company’s Credit Agreement allows certain other items to be added to arrive at
 Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, and there may be certain other deductions required.
