The Company's insurance contributions equal the amount reimbursed by the State of Illinois. Contributions are due within&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;five&lt;/font&gt; business days from the date the funds are received from the State. Amounts due of $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.3&lt;/font&gt; million and $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;2.2&lt;/font&gt; million for health insurance reimbursements and contributions were reflected in prepaid insurance and accrued insurance as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;(2) &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;As a condition of the sale of substantially all of the assets used in the Company's home health business to subsidiaries of LHC Group, Inc. ("LHCG") in February 2013, the Company is responsible for any adjustments to Medicare and Medicaid billings prior to the closing. In connection with an internal evaluation of the Company's billing processes, the Company discovered documentation errors in a number of claims that it had submitted to Medicare. Consistent with applicable law, the Company voluntarily remitted $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;1.8&lt;/font&gt; million to the U.S. government in March 2014. As of March 31, 2017, the Company, using its best judgment, has estimated a total of $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.4&lt;/font&gt; million for billing adjustments for 2013, 2012 and 2011 services which may be subject to Medicare audits. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company reduced the indemnification reserve accrual by the amounts accrued for periods no longer subject to Medicare audits of&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$0.2&lt;/font&gt; million and $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.4&lt;/font&gt; million, respectively. This amount is reflected as a reduction in general and administrative expense of discontinued operations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-BoldMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;3. Acquisitions&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;Effective February 23, 2016, the Company acquired certain assets of Lutheran Social Services of Illinois ("LSSI") for approximately $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.1&lt;/font&gt; million. The results of operations from the acquisition of LSSI are included in the Company's statement of income from the date of the acquisition. The LSSI acquisition accounted for $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.2&lt;/font&gt; million and $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.1&lt;/font&gt; million of net service revenues and&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$7.5&lt;/font&gt; thousand and&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$3.7&lt;/font&gt; thousand of net income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. In order to focus on providing services to consumers in their homes, effective March 1, 2017, Addus ceased providing adult day services and sold substantially all of the assets used in our adult day services centers, including LSSI.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;On April 24, 2015, Addus HealthCare entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Margaret Coffey and Carol Kolar (the "South Shore Sellers"), South Shore Home Health Service Inc. ("South Shore") and Acaring Home Care, LLC ("Acaring"), pursuant to which Addus HealthCare agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of each of South Shore and Acaring. On February 5, 2016, Addus HealthCare completed its acquisition of all the outstanding securities of South Shore and Acaring for a total purchase price of $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;20.0&lt;/font&gt; million (the "South Shore Purchase Price"). The related acquisition costs, included in general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income, were $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;1.3&lt;/font&gt; million and were expensed as incurred. The results of operations from South Shore and Acaring are included in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of the acquisition. Acaring was dissolved on March 1, 2016, and its assets were transferred to South Shore.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;The Company's acquisition of South Shore and Acaring has been accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 805, "&lt;/font&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;Business Combinations, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;" and the resulting goodwill and other intangible assets was accounted for under ASC Topic 350 "&lt;/font&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;." The acquisition was recorded at its fair value as of February 5, 2016. Under business combination accounting, the South Shore Purchase Price was $20.0 million and was allocated to South Shore's net tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values. Based upon management's valuation, the total purchase price has been allocated as follows:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;From time to time, the Company is subject to legal and/or administrative proceedings incidental to its business. It is the opinion of management that the outcome of pending legal and/or administrative proceedings will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;On January 20, 2016, the Company was served with a lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against the Company and Cigna Corporation by Stop Illinois Marketing Fraud, LLC, a qui tam relator formed for the purpose of bringing this action. In the action, the plaintiff alleges, inter alia, violations of the federal False Claims Act relating primarily to allegations of violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and allegedly improper referrals of patients from our home care division to our home health business, substantially all of which was sold in 2013. The plaintiff seeks to recover damages, fees and costs under the federal False Claims Act including treble damages, civil penalties and its attorneys' fees. The U.S. government has declined to intervene at this time. Plaintiff amended its complaint on April 4, 2016 to include additional allegations in support of its False Claims Act claims, including alleged violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. The Company and Cigna Corporation filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on June 6, 2016. On February 3, 2017, the Court granted Cigna Corporation's motion to dismiss in full, and granted our motion to dismiss in part allowing Plaintiff another chance to amend its complaint. Plaintiff timely filed a second amended complaint on March 10, 2017, withdrawing its conspiracy claim under the Federal &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;False Claims Act and adding an explicit claim under the Illinois False Claims Act for the same underlying kickback allegations. On April 10, 2017, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint, which has not yet been ruled on by the court.&amp;nbsp;The Company intends to defend the litigation vigorously and believes the case will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;On May 4, 2016, the Company, together with 59 other social service and healthcare providers in the State of Illinois, filed an action in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois against certain individuals in their official capacities as agents of the Illinois Department of Human Services, the Illinois Department on Aging, the Illinois Department of Public Health, the Illinois Department of HealthCare and Family Services, the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority, the Illinois Department of Corrections and the Illinois Department of Central Management Services, including the Governor of Illinois. On July 20, 2016, a third amended complaint was filed by the plaintiffs, who now comprise 97 similarly situated providers and provider organizations. In the action, the plaintiffs, including the Company, allege to have entered into contracts with the various defendants based in part on the Governor's proposed budget, which provided for funding for the services to be provided by plaintiffs thereunder. The Governor subsequently vetoed all of the relevant appropriations bills on June 25, 2015 and again vetoed an appropriations bill that included funding for the contracts on June 10, 2016. While the defendant officer and agency heads have continued to enforce such contracts, since August 1, 2016, the Company received an aggregate of approximately $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;65.4&lt;/font&gt; million in payments from the State of Illinois from the stopgap budget enacted on June 30, 2016. In those actions, plaintiffs alleged the defendant officers and agency heads acted beyond the scope of their legal authority in entering into and enforcing contracts with no intent to perform under such contracts by failing to pay amounts due thereunder when due. The action also alleged that the Governor of Illinois' vetoes of appropriations for such contracts violated the Illinois Constitution. Plaintiffs sought injunctive relief to payment of overdue bills to prevent irreparable harm, including imperiling the State's infrastructure for delivery of human services. On August 31, 2016, the Court denied plaintiffs' petitions for declaratory and injunctive relief and dismissed the actions with prejudice. Plaintiffs timely filed a notice of appeal on September 30, 2016.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Company has a national agreement with the SEIU which is currently under negotiation, as well as numerous agreements with local SEIU affiliates which are renegotiated from time to time. These negotiations are often initiated when the Company receives increases in hourly rates from various state agencies. Upon expiration of these collective bargaining agreements, the Company may not be able to negotiate labor agreements on satisfactory terms with these labor unions.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:CommitmentsAndContingenciesDisclosureTextBlock>

The State of Illinois did not adopt a comprehensive budget for fiscal year 2016, which ended on June 30, 2016, and it has not yet adopted a comprehensive budget for fiscal year 2017, which began on July 1, 2016. Stopgap budget legislation was enacted on June 30, 2016, which appropriated funds through December 31, 2016. Without a budget, the State is not authorized to pay for the non-Medicaid consumers we serve. During the second half of 2016 and the first three months of 2017, we have been experiencing a delay in payments from the State of Illinois due to the current budget situation. Accounts receivable attributable to delayed payments from the Illinois Department on Aging totaled&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$58.8&lt;/font&gt; million as of March 31, 2017, approximately&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$56.2&lt;/font&gt; million thereof related to Non-Medicaid consumers and approximately&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$2.6&lt;/font&gt; million related to Medicaid consumers. Reimbursements from the State of Illinois could be further delayed due to the lack of a budget for fiscal year 2017 and because current forecasts indicate higher state deficits in the near future.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:ConcentrationRiskDisclosureTextBlock>

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company's long-term debt with variable interest rates approximates fair value based on instruments with similar terms.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;The Company applies fair value techniques on a non-recurring basis associated with valuing potential impairment losses related to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and also when determining the fair value of contingent considerations. To determine the fair value in these situations, the Company uses Level 3 inputs, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists; therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as discounted cash flows, or if available, what a market participant would pay on the measurement date.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;The Company utilizes the income approach to estimate the fair value of its intangible assets derived from acquisitions. At the date of acquisition, a contingent earn-out obligation is recorded at its fair value, which is calculated as the present value of the Company's maximum obligation based on probability-weighted estimates of achievement of performance targets defined in the earn-out agreements. The Company reviews the fair valuation periodically and adjusts the fair value for any changes in the maximum earn-out obligation based on probability-weighted estimates of achievement of certain performance targets defined in the earn-out agreements. In addition, discounted cash flows were used to estimate the fair value of the Company's investment in joint ventures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:FairValueOfFinancialInstrumentsPolicy>

The Company tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, as of October 1, or whenever potential impairment triggers occur, such as a significant change in business climate or regulatory changes that would indicate that an impairment may have occurred. The Company may use a qualitative test, known as "Step 0," or a &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;two&lt;/font&gt;-step quantitative method to determine whether impairment has occurred. In Step 0, the Company can elect to perform an optional qualitative analysis and based on the results skip the two step analysis. In 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company elected to implement Step 0 and was not required to conduct the remaining two step analysis. The results of the Company's Step 0 assessments indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and therefore the Company concluded that there were&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;no&lt;/font&gt; impairments for the year ended December 31, 2016.&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;No&lt;/font&gt; impairment charges were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or 2016.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:GoodwillAndIntangibleAssetsGoodwillPolicy>

Deferred taxes, resulting from differences between the financial and tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities, are also adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. ASC Topic 740 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. ASC Topic 740, also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In addition, ASC Topic 740 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Under ASU 2016-09, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies (including tax benefits of dividends on share-based payment awards) should be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. ASU 2016-09 also requires recognition of excess tax benefits regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. ASU 2016-09 further permits the withholding of an amount up to employees' maximum individual tax rate in the relevant jurisdiction without resulting in a liability classification. ASU 2016-09 also requires any excess tax benefits be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity and cash paid by an employer when directly withholding shares for tax-withholding purposes to be classified as a financing activity. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. As a result, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recorded an excess tax benefit of&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;26.3&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; thousand within income tax expense on its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:IncomeTaxPolicyTextBlock>

Amortization is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods based upon the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which range from&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;two&lt;/font&gt; to&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;twenty-five&lt;/font&gt; years.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Company would recognize an impairment loss when the estimated future non-discounted cash flows associated with the intangible asset is less than the carrying value. An impairment charge would then be recorded for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of these intangible assets using the income approach.&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;No&lt;/font&gt; impairment charge was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or 2016.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Company's management has concluded that certificates of need and licenses have indefinite lives, as management has determined that there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, economic or other factors that would limit the useful life of these intangible assets, and the Company intends to renew and operate the certificates of need and licenses indefinitely. The certificates of need and licenses are tested annually for impairment.&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;No&lt;/font&gt; impairment was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or 2016.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:IntangibleAssetsFiniteLivedPolicy>

The capital leases were entered into to finance property and equipment at the Company's support center. The underlying assets are included in "Property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization" in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These capital lease obligations require monthly payments through September 2019 and have implicit interest rates that range from &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.0&lt;/font&gt;% to &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.6&lt;/font&gt;%.

The capital leases were entered into to finance property and equipment for the Company's telephone systems.

The Company's amended credit facility provides a $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;100.0&lt;/font&gt; million revolving line of credit, a delayed draw term loan facility of up to $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;25.0&lt;/font&gt; million and an uncommitted incremental term loan facility of up to $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;50.0&lt;/font&gt; million, expiring&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;November 10, 2020&lt;/font&gt; and includes a $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;35.0&lt;/font&gt; million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. The amended credit facility increased the specified advance multiple from&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.25&lt;/font&gt; to&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.75&lt;/font&gt; to 1.00 and the maximum permitted senior leverage ratio from&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.50&lt;/font&gt; to&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;4.00&lt;/font&gt; to 1.00. Except as modified by the May 24, 2016 amendment, the amended credit facility contains the same material terms as the previous agreement dated November 10, 2015. Substantially all of the subsidiaries of Holdings are co-borrowers, and Holdings has guaranteed the borrowers' obligations under the credit facility. The credit facility is secured by a first priority security interest in all of Holdings' and the borrowers' current and future tangible and intangible assets, including the shares of stock of the borrowers.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Interest on our credit facility may be payable at (x) the sum of (i) an applicable margin ranging from &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;2.00&lt;/font&gt;% to &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;2.50&lt;/font&gt;% based on the applicable leverage ratio plus (ii) a base rate equal to the greatest of (a) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the "prime rate," (b) the sum of the federal funds rate plus a margin of &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.50&lt;/font&gt;% and (c) the sum of the adjusted LIBOR that would be applicable to a loan with an interest period of one month advanced on the applicable day plus a margin of 3.00% or (y) the sum of (i) an applicable margin ranging from &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.00&lt;/font&gt;% to &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.50&lt;/font&gt;% based on the applicable leverage ratio plus (ii) the adjusted LIBOR that would be applicable to a loan with an interest period of one, two or three months advanced on the applicable day or (z) the sum of (i) an applicable margin ranging from &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.00&lt;/font&gt;% to &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;3.50&lt;/font&gt;% based on the applicable leverage ratio plus (ii) the daily floating LIBOR that would be applicable to a loan with an interest period of one &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;month advanced on the applicable day. The Company pays a fee ranging from &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.25&lt;/font&gt;% to &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;0.50&lt;/font&gt;% per annum based on the applicable leverage ratio times the unused portion of the revolving portion of the credit facility. Issued stand-by letters of credit are charged at a rate equal to the applicable margin for LIBOR loans payable quarterly. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company drew and subsequently repaid&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$20.0&lt;/font&gt; million of its&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;revolving&lt;/font&gt; credit line to fund on-going operations. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had a total of&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;23.8&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; million and $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;24.1&lt;/font&gt; million outstanding on the credit facility and the total availability under the revolving credit loan facility was $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;82.8&lt;/font&gt; million and $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;79.7&lt;/font&gt; million, respectively.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The credit facility also contains certain customary financial covenants and negative covenants that, among other things, include a requirement to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a requirement to stay below a maximum senior leverage ratio and a requirement to stay below a maximum permitted amount of capital expenditures, as well as restrictions on guarantees, indebtedness, liens, distributions, investments and loans, subject to customary carve outs, a restriction on dividends (unless no default then exists or would occur as a result thereof, the Company is in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants contained in the credit facility after giving effect thereto, the Company has an excess availability of at least&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;40%&lt;/font&gt; of the revolving credit commitment under the credit facility and the aggregate amount of dividends and distributions paid in any fiscal year does not exceed $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;5.0&lt;/font&gt; million), restrictions on the Company's ability to enter into transactions other than in the ordinary course of business, a restriction on the ability to consummate more than&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;three&lt;/font&gt; acquisitions in any calendar year, consummate any individual acquisition with a purchase price in excess of $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;25.0&lt;/font&gt; million and consummate acquisitions with total purchase price in excess of $&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;40&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;.0&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; million in the aggregate over the term of the credit facility, in each case without the consent of the lenders, restrictions on mergers, transfers of assets, acquisitions, equipment, subsidiaries and affiliate transactions, subject to customary carve outs, and restrictions on fundamental changes and lines of business.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:LongTermDebtTextBlock>

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;"Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP and will be effective for the Company as of January 1, 2018. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or modified retrospective (cumulative effect) transition method and we have not yet selected which transition method we will apply. The Company's evaluation of ASU 2014-09 is not complete. The FASB has issued and may issue in the future, interpretative guidance, which may cause the Company's evaluation to change. The Company has completed an initial review to determine the impact ASU 2014-09 and its subsequent updates through December 31, 2016 will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements or financial statement disclosures upon adoption. Based on the Company's preliminary review, it believes that the timing and measurement of revenue for its customers will be similar to its current revenue recognition. However, this view is preliminary and could change based on the detailed analysis associated with the conversion and implementation phases of the Company's ASU 2014-09 project. The Company will complete its assessment during 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

ASU 2016-02 will &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;require lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as liabilities, with corresponding "right- of-use" assets and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, subject to early adoption. For income statement recognition purposes, leases will be classified as either a finance or an operating lease. The Company will be required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. Upon initial evaluation, the Company believes that the new standard will have a material impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheets but it will not affect our liquidity. The Company is continuing to evaluate other potential impacts to its financial statements and accounting systems including whether the Company will need to secure new software to account for the change in accounting for leases.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments (Topic 326) Credit Losses." ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Under the new standard, entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income are to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. An allowance for credit losses will be a valuation account that will be deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. ASU 2016-13 is effective as of January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-13.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;"Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;This standard amends and adjusts how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years and will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless impracticable. If impracticable the Company would be required to apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date possible. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-15 will have on its statement of financial position or financial statement disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;"Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;The new guidance eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (i.e., Step 2 of the current goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value (i.e., measure the charge based on the current Step 1). ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual and any interim impairment tests for periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2017-04 to determine how its goodwill impairment testing will be impacted and whether it may elect to adopt ASU 2017-04 prior to the stated effective date.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:NewAccountingPronouncementsPolicyPolicyTextBlock>

The Company establishes its provision for doubtful accounts primarily by analyzing historical trends and the aging of receivables. In its evaluation, the Company considers other factors including: delays in payment trends in individual states due to budget or funding issues; billing conversions related to acquisitions or internal systems; resubmission of bills with required documentation and disputes with specific payors. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level that the Company's management believes is sufficient to cover potential losses.

The Company expects some additional restructuring and other costs to occur, however, the amount and timing cannot be determined at this time. The expenses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2017 included costs related to terminated employees. The expenses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2016 included costs related to terminated employees and other direct costs associated with implementing these initiatives. Other direct costs included contract termination costs, accelerated depreciation and asset write-offs.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;(1) The Company provides health insurance coverage to qualified union employees providing personal care services in Illinois through a Taft-Hartley multi-employer health and welfare plan under Section 302(c)(5) of the Labor &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;Management Relations Act of 1947. The Company's insurance contributions equal the amount reimbursed by the State of Illinois. Contributions are due within five business days from the date the funds are received from the State. Amounts due of $0.3 million and $2.2 million for health insurance reimbursements and contributions were reflected in prepaid insurance and accrued insurance as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;(2) As a condition of the sale of substantially all of the assets used in the Company's home health business to subsidiaries of LHC Group, Inc. ("LHCG") in February 2013, the Company is responsible for any adjustments to Medicare and Medicaid billings prior to the closing. In connection with an internal evaluation of the Company's billing processes, the Company discovered documentation errors in a number of claims that it had submitted to Medicare. Consistent with applicable law, the Company voluntarily remitted $1.8 million to the U.S. government in March 2014. As of March 31, 2017, the Company, using its best judgment, has estimated a total of $0.4 million for billing adjustments for 2013, 2012 and 2011 services which may be subject to Medicare audits. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company reduced the indemnification reserve accrual by the amounts accrued for periods no longer subject to Medicare audits of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. This amount is reflected as a reduction in general and administrative expense of discontinued operations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Company receives payments for providing services from federal, state and local governmental agencies, managed care organizations, commercial insurers and private consumers. The Company's operations are principally provided based on authorized hours, determined by the relevant agency, at an hourly rate specified in agreements or fixed by legislation and recognized as revenues at the time services are rendered. Personal care service revenues are reimbursed by state, local and other governmental programs which are partially funded by Medicaid or Medicaid waiver programs, with the remainder reimbursed through insurance programs and private pay.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The Company establishes its provision for doubtful accounts primarily by analyzing historical trends and the aging of receivables. In its evaluation, the Company considers other factors including: delays in payment trends in individual states due to budget or funding issues; billing conversions related to acquisitions or internal systems; resubmission of bills with required documentation and disputes with specific payors. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level that the Company's management believes is sufficient to cover potential losses.

The Company tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, as of October 1, or whenever potential impairment triggers occur, such as a significant change in business climate or regulatory changes that would indicate that an impairment may have occurred. The Company may use a qualitative test, known as "Step 0," or a &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;two&lt;/font&gt;-step quantitative method to determine whether impairment has occurred. In Step 0, the Company can elect to perform an optional qualitative analysis and based on the results skip the two step analysis. In 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company elected to implement Step 0 and was not required to conduct the remaining two step analysis. The results of the Company's Step 0 assessments indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and therefore the Company concluded that there were&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;no&lt;/font&gt; impairments for the year ended December 31, 2016.&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;No&lt;/font&gt; impairment charges were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or 2016.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Amortization is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods based upon the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which range from&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;two&lt;/font&gt; to&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;twenty-five&lt;/font&gt; years.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Company would recognize an impairment loss when the estimated future non-discounted cash flows associated with the intangible asset is less than the carrying value. An impairment charge would then be recorded for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of these intangible assets using the income approach.&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;No&lt;/font&gt; impairment charge was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or 2016.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Company's management has concluded that certificates of need and licenses have indefinite lives, as management has determined that there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, economic or other factors that would limit the useful life of these intangible assets, and the Company intends to renew and operate the certificates of need and licenses indefinitely. The certificates of need and licenses are tested annually for impairment.&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;No&lt;/font&gt; impairment was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or 2016.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The Company recognizes its obligations associated with this program in the period the claim is incurred. The cost of both the claims reported and claims incurred but not reported, up to the deductible, have been accrued based on historical claims experience, industry statistics and an actuarial analysis performed by an independent third party.

As the amount and timing of the receipt of these payments are not certain, the interest income is recognized when received and reported in the statement of income as interest income. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;2016&lt;/font&gt;, the Company did &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;no&lt;/font&gt;t receive any prompt &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;payment interest. While the Company may be owed additional prompt payment interest, the amount and timing of receipt of such payments remains uncertain, and the Company has determined that it will continue to recognize prompt payment interest income when received.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Deferred taxes, resulting from differences between the financial and tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities, are also adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. ASC Topic 740 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. ASC Topic 740, also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In addition, ASC Topic 740 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;"Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;ASU 2016-09 allows for simplification of several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Under ASU 2016-09, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies (including tax benefits of dividends on share-based payment awards) should be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. ASU 2016-09 also requires recognition of excess tax benefits regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. ASU 2016-09 further permits the withholding of an amount up to employees' maximum individual tax rate in the relevant jurisdiction without resulting in a liability classification. ASU 2016-09 also requires any excess tax benefits be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity and cash paid by an employer when directly withholding shares for tax-withholding purposes to be classified as a financing activity. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. As a result, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recorded an excess tax benefit of&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;26.3&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; thousand within income tax expense on its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, "Stock Compensation." Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis under the 2009 Plan over the vesting period of the equity awards based on the grant date fair value of the options and restricted stock awards. From October 28, 2009 to December 31, 2016, the Company utilized the Enhanced Hull-White Trinomial Model to value the Company's options. Beginning January 1, 2017, the Company began utilizing the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model to value the Company's options, as the Company believes it is a more widely accepted and understood valuation model. The determination of the fair value of stock-based payments utilizing the Black-Scholes Model and the Enhanced Hull-White Trinomial Model is affected by the Company's stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected term, expected dividends yield, expected forfeiture rate, expected turn-over rate and the expected exercise multiple.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company's long-term debt with variable interest rates approximates fair value based on instruments with similar terms.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

To determine the fair value in these situations, the Company uses Level 3 inputs, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists; therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as discounted cash flows, or if available, what a market participant would pay on the measurement date.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;The Company utilizes the income approach to estimate the fair value of its intangible assets derived from acquisitions. At the date of acquisition, a contingent earn-out obligation is recorded at its fair value, which is calculated as the present value of the Company's maximum obligation based on probability-weighted estimates of achievement of performance targets defined in the earn-out agreements. The Company reviews the fair valuation periodically and adjusts the fair value for any changes in the maximum earn-out obligation based on probability-weighted estimates of achievement of certain performance targets defined in the earn-out agreements. In addition, discounted cash flows were used to estimate the fair value of the Company's investment in joint ventures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The evaluation concluded that there did not appear to be evidence of substantial doubt of the entity's ability to continue as a going concern.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP and will be effective for the Company as of January 1, 2018. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or modified retrospective (cumulative effect) transition method and we have not yet selected which transition method we will apply. The Company's evaluation of ASU 2014-09 is not complete. The FASB has issued and may issue in the future, interpretative guidance, which may cause the Company's evaluation to change. The Company has completed an initial review to determine the impact ASU 2014-09 and its subsequent updates through December 31, 2016 will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements or financial statement disclosures upon adoption. Based on the Company's preliminary review, it believes that the timing and measurement of revenue for its customers will be similar to its current revenue recognition. However, this view is preliminary and could change based on the detailed analysis associated with the conversion and implementation phases of the Company's ASU 2014-09 project. The Company will complete its assessment during 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

ASU 2016-02 will &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font class="_mt" style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT,Times New Roman,Times,serif;" size="2"&gt;require lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as liabilities, with corresponding "right- of-use" assets and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, subject to early adoption. For income statement recognition purposes, leases will be classified as either a finance or an operating lease. The Company will be required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. Upon initial evaluation, the Company believes that the new standard will have a material impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheets but it will not affect our liquidity. The Company is continuing to evaluate other potential impacts to its financial statements and accounting systems including whether the Company will need to secure new software to account for the change in accounting for leases.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Under the new standard, entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income are to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. An allowance for credit losses will be a valuation account that will be deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. ASU 2016-13 is effective as of January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-13.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years and will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless impracticable. If impracticable the Company would be required to apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date possible. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-15 will have on its statement of financial position or financial statement disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Instead, entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value (i.e., measure the charge based on the current Step 1).

Options Home Care is a provider of personal care services in more than 20 counties in New Mexico and the acquisition will expand the footprint of the Company's existing operations in the state. The Company is expected to close on the acquisition in the third quarter, pending customary closing conditions.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The maturity of the new credit facility is&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;five&lt;/font&gt; years, although the delayed draw term loan is only available until &lt;font class="_mt"&gt;November 8, 2018&lt;/font&gt;. Under the terms of an accordion feature of the Credit Agreement,&amp;nbsp;&lt;font class="_mt"&gt;$100.0&lt;/font&gt; million is also available for incremental term loans. Fundings under the delayed draw term loans and the incremental term loans are limited to financing or refinancing Permitted Acquisitions (as defined in the Credit Agreement).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

("LHCG") in February 2013, the Company is responsible for any adjustments to Medicare and Medicaid billings prior to the closing. In connection with an internal evaluation of the Company's billing processes, the Company discovered documentation errors in a number of claims that it had submitted to Medicare. Consistent with applicable law, the Company voluntarily remitted $1.8 million to the U.S. government in March 2014. As of March 31, 2017, the Company, using its best judgment, has estimated a total of $0.4 million for billing adjustments for 2013, 2012 and 2011 services which may be subject to Medicare audits. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company reduced the indemnification reserve accrual by the amounts accrued for periods no longer subject to Medicare audits of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. This amount is reflected as a reduction in general and administrative expense of discontinued operations.</link:footnote>
