The debt picture is not as rosy, but comparisons are not simple.

The raw numbers are listed below:

Company Current Ratio Debt/Equity
Healthsouth 3.5 .89
Horizon Healthcare 2.6 1.1
Mariner Health 1.75 1.28
Novacare 2.01 .58
US Physical Therapy 4.46 1.04
Vencor 2.05 2.21
-----------------------------------------------------
Cohr Inc. 4.39 0.02
Emcare Holdings 1.72 .63
Horizon Mental Health 1.32 0

Rehabcare 1.41 1.14

The companies listed are not exact matches, but in the
Stevens report, the ones above the line are listed as
'rehabilitation companies', the ones below the line are
listed as 'outsourcing' companies. Looking at RHBC
numbers, they do not compare favorably with either
group.

I believe you are correct in that the amount of debt is
a concern. The degree to which it is a concern is
quickly becoming my primary question.

Insight appreciated,

J
