Description

In 1984, a year after Congress overhauled the way Medicare would pay hospitals and medical centers, a young entrepreneur named Richard Scrushy decided to start a new kind of healthcare company—one that took rehabilitation out of the basements of hospitals and moved it into bright and lively settings that promoted wellness and healing. Scrushy sought to coordinate all aspects of rehabilitation, from social services to physical and occupational therapy, under one roof. His plan proved to be more successful than he ever dreamed. After only 18 years, HealthSouth became the nation’s leading provider of ambulatory surgery, diagnostic imaging, and inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation.
