[edit] History:
1985 Genesis Health Ventures was established in 1985 with nine Centers.
1985 – 1998 Between 1985 and 1998, Genesis Health Ventures grew from a $32 million to a $2.4 billion public company through the acquisition of nursing homes and services such as rehabilitation therapy, diagnostic testing, respiratory therapy, and pharmacy.
1999 – 2001 In 1999, the Federal government made drastic, unanticipated cuts to Medicare, which at that time funded virtually all the care for individuals admitted to Genesis Centers from hospitals. Genesis Health Ventures sought Chapter 11 protection in 2000. In 2001, the company reorganized and reemerged from bankruptcy.
2003 In 2003, Genesis Health Ventures’ separated the Company’s in-patient care and pharmacy divisions. As part of the separation, Genesis Health Ventures adopted the NeighborCare pharmacy division’s trade name, and spun-off the Company’s Genesis ElderCare Skilled Nursing Centers, and Assisted Living and Independent Living Communities, as well as Genesis Rehabilitation Therapy Services, into a new entity – Genesis HealthCare Corporation.
2007 On July 13, 2007, Formation Capital and JER Partners completed the acquisition of Genesis HealthCare Corporation, previously (NASDAQ: GHCI).
Today Today, Genesis HealthCare provides long-term care and rehabilitation therapy services to the over 26,000 residents and patients every day.
