Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes reconciliations of the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) to non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules are as follows: (1) adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income (loss) attributable to Amedisys, Inc. before net interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization, excluding certain items; (2) adjusted net service revenue, defined as net service revenue excluding certain items; (3) adjusted net income attributable to Amedisys, Inc., defined as net income (loss) attributable to Amedisys, Inc. calculated in accordance with GAAP excluding certain items; and (4) adjusted net income attributable to Amedisys, Inc. per diluted share, defined as net income (loss) attributable to Amedisys, Inc. common stockholders per diluted share calculated in accordance with GAAP excluding certain items. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, are useful gauges of our current performance and are also included in internal management reporting. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not more meaningful than or as an alternative to the GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release and the company’s financial statements. Non-GAAP measures as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies since not all companies calculate these non-GAAP measures consistently.

Forward-Looking Statements
When included in this press release, words like “believes,” “belief,” “expects,” “strategy,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “may,” “might,” “could,” “would,” “should” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements involve a variety of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described therein. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to the following: disruption from the proposed merger with UnitedHealth Group with patient, payor, provider, referral source, supplier or management and employee relationships; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement with UnitedHealth Group or the inability to complete the proposed transaction on the anticipated terms and timetable; the risk that necessary regulatory approvals for the proposed merger with UnitedHealth Group are delayed, are not obtained or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; the failure of the conditions to the proposed merger to be satisfied; the costs related to the proposed transaction; the diversion of management time on merger-related issues; the risk that termination fees may be payable by the Company in the event that the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances; reputational risk related to the proposed merger; the risk of litigation or regulatory action related to the proposed merger; changes in Medicare and other medical payment levels; changes in payments and covered services by federal and state governments; future cost containment initiatives undertaken by third-party payors; changes in the episodic versus non-episodic mix of our payors, the case mix of our patients and payment methodologies; staffing shortages driven by the competitive labor market; our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; competition in the healthcare industry; our ability to maintain or establish new patient referral sources; changes in or our failure to comply with existing federal and state laws or regulations or the inability to comply with new government regulations on a timely basis; changes in estimates and judgments associated with critical accounting policies; our ability to consistently provide high-quality care; our ability to keep our patients and employees safe; our access to financing; our ability to meet debt service requirements and comply with covenants in debt agreements; business disruptions due to natural or man-made disasters, climate change or acts of terrorism, widespread protests or civil unrest; our ability to open care centers, acquire additional care centers and integrate and operate these care centers effectively; our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions, investments and joint ventures; our ability to integrate, manage and keep our information systems secure; the impact of inflation; and changes in laws or developments with respect to any litigation relating to the Company, including various other matters, many of which are beyond our control.
Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on any forward-looking statement as a prediction of future events. We expressly disclaim any obligation or
2

undertaking and we do not intend to release publicly any updates or changes in our expectations concerning the forward-looking statements or any changes in events, conditions or circumstances upon which any forward-looking statement may be based, except as required by law.

4 HIGHLIGHTS AND SUMMARY FINANCIAL RESULTS (ADJUSTED): 4Q 2023(1) Excluding the sale of our personal care segment, our revenue increased $25 million over prior year.

The EBITDA impact of these items totaled $5 million. 1. The financial results for the three-month periods and years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023 are adjusted for certain items and should be considered a non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is included in the corresponding 8-K detailing quarterly results for each respective reporting period. 2. Same Store volume – Includes admissions and recertifications. 3. Same Store is defined as care centers that we have operated for at least the last 12 months and startups that are an expansion of a same store care center. 4.

6 HOME HEALTH AND HOSPICE SEGMENT (ADJUSTED) – Q4 2023(1) • Medicare revenue per episode up 0.1%; reimbursement is flat year over year. • Y/Y Total CPV up $4.96 (+4.3%) primarily due to raises, wage inflation, an increase in new hire pay and higher contractor costs. The reduction in VPE on our episodic revenue partially offset the increase in cost per visit. • EBITDA margin decreased 50 basis points on a 70 basis point decrease in gross margin driven by a shift in volume mix and higher labor costs. Home Health Highlights • Net revenue per day +4.4% primarily due to the +3.1% Hospice rate update effective 10/1/2023 as well as a reduction in our revenue adjustments. • Total ADC decline is due to lower admissions. • Cost per day up $3.74 (+4.3%) primarily due to raises, wage inflation and an increase in RN hires partially offset by clinical optimization and reorganization initiatives and a new pharmacy contract. • EBITDA margin up 230 basis points due to the 2024 rate increase (effective 10/1/2023), a new pharmacy contract and clinical optimization and reorganization initiatives. Hospice Highlights 1. The financial results for the three-month periods and years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023 are adjusted for certain items and should be considered a non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is included in the corresponding 8-K detailing quarterly results for each respective reporting period. 2. Pre-Corporate EBITDA does not include any corporate G&A expenses. 3. Same Store information represents the percent change in volume, admissions or ADC for the period as a percent of the volume, admissions or ADC of the prior period. 4.
