The presentation addresses how and why various macroeconomic and facility-specific financial, regulatory and operational pressures resulted in "fire sales" in the LTACH market in 2009 and why 2010 will be a year in which over 60 LTACHs are expected to change ownership at much more attractive EBITDA multiples.
