Select Medical Holdings Corporation

Select Medical Holdings Corporation

Select Medical Holdings Corporation (SEM) is a US-based provider of post‑acute healthcare services, operating speciality hospitals, long‑term acute care and inpatient rehabilitation facilities, alongside outpatient physical therapy clinics. With a market capitalisation of about $1.71 billion, the company’s performance is driven by occupancy levels, payer reimbursement rates and partnerships with health systems and insurers. Investors should note the business benefits from secular trends such as an ageing population and rising demand for post‑acute care, plus growth through acquisitions and joint ventures. At the same time SEM is exposed to regulatory and reimbursement risk, labour cost pressures, and cyclical patient volumes—which can affect margins and cash flow. This summary is educational and not personal investment advice; potential investors should assess their own objectives, tolerance for health‑sector regulatory risk and consult a qualified adviser before acting.
